Chapter 494: The Danger of the Sword Sect
It turns out that the Star Map is indeed useful, but it only delays time.
Shen Zhiyin's vitality is still fading.
She tried to leave this place, but she couldn't leave because she fell into the long river of time.
The beautiful long river of time in the darkness brought deadly danger.
Shen Zhiyin even saw some deadly bones floating in the long river of time. Facing the eye sockets of the huge skeleton, she seemed to see her own fate in the near future.
Shen Zhiyin: ... ...
No, no!
Since it is a long river of time, there should be time to move forward and time to move backward.
She took a deep breath, used the power of the stars to swim in the long river, and then found a pattern.
The downstream long flow is the acceleration of time, and the upstream time is slower.
She turned and went upstream.
But this is not an easy thing.
This seemingly calm river of time was very smooth when swimming downstream, but it seemed that something was blocking it when swimming upstream.
She tried her best, but she only swam less than 50 meters in an hour.
During this period, the vitality in her body was still constantly draining away.
But now she could only continue to swim upstream.
She struggled in the river of time, gradually changing from a girl with delicate and fair skin to a person in her thirties, with more fine lines on her skin.
Later, her hair gradually turned white from the top of her head.
But her movements did not slow down, and her bones were stronger than those of ordinary monks, even stronger than monsters.
Time passed slowly, Shen Zhiyin watched the skin on her hands disappear into stars, revealing the beautiful golden bones inside.
Her black hair turned white, and even the skin on her face gradually disappeared and turned into starlight.
When she encountered another huge skeleton, she felt that she couldn't go on like this.
The owners of those skeletons must have been beasts from the fairy world when they were alive. The breath revealed from the skeletons alone made her feel palpitations.
But such a powerful existence gradually died while swimming upstream.
Probably just like herself, watching her body disappear clearly.
This is too scary.
Shen Zhiyin adjusted her mentality and couldn't continue to swim upstream, at least not now.
Although her bones are stronger than many alien beasts, she is not confident enough to compete with these huge creatures.
They all died in the process of upstream.
There is no end to this long river of time. Although Shen Zhiyin can feel that the vitality is flowing slower than downstream, it is still flowing.
So... upstream is not a way to survive, it is also a way to die. At least her current body can't support her to swim to the end.
Time, time.
"Since the law of space can be comprehended, why can't time be comprehended."
Shen Zhiyin stopped and murmured. After she figured it out, she stopped, crossed her legs and closed her eyes, ignoring the disappearing skin on her body.
In the law of time, all time is wrong.
She seemed to have returned to the days in the gap of space where time was not noticeable at all, and there was no distinction between day and night.
Shen Zhiyin was doing three things at once, operating the power of the stars, "Spirit Refining Technique" and "All Things Grow" at the same time.
Nearly half of her skin disappeared, revealing the golden bones and internal organs inside. Now she looked tattered and looked very scary.
But under the effect of "All Things Grow", new skin grew on her bones.
Because time passed quickly, the effect of All Things Grow also took place quickly. Under the situation of one gaining and the other losing, her current situation looked even more terrifying.
Under the influence of the power of the stars, she gradually comprehended the laws of time, absorbing some of the power of time into her body while practicing the "Spirit Refining Technique".
Her exposed bones changed visibly.
From gold, it gradually turned into a white color with a jade-like texture, but some golden mysterious patterns flowed on the jade-white bones.
It was like a work of art, but it was a work of art that could not be carved by humans.
As the bones changed, her understanding of the laws of time became more and more profound.
Gradually, the river of time around her changed.
Originally a long river of time with a silver ribbon, it began to form a very shallow vortex shape with Shen Zhiyin as the center.
And Shen Zhiyin was in the "eye" of the vortex.
The long river of time reversed in the section where Shen Zhiyin was.
At first, there were only some ripples, which were not obvious.
But later, the ripples like a vortex spread out and became larger and deeper.
Shen Zhiyin's bones changed little by little from the position near her heart. As more and more bones turned into jade white with golden patterns, the vortex became more and more obvious.
Now Shen Zhiyin is only left with a very beautiful skeleton, but her consciousness and soul still exist.
When the vortex centered on her in the river of time was completely formed and the entire river of time began to twist, her bones were gradually covered with a layer of flesh and blood.
Later, there was more and more blood and flesh...
"
Isn't the little aunt back yet? When will the secret realm be opened again?"
Asked Jian Zong, the Shen brothers gathered together with a frown.
A hundred years have passed since the fairy island secret realm was closed.
In these hundred years, if it weren't for the fact that the little aunt's life light was weak but not completely extinguished, they would have gone crazy.
A hundred years ago, two-thirds of the great masters above the Mahayana level on Hengyang Continent entered the fairy island secret realm, but less than half of them came out in the end.
Therefore, many forces on Hengyang Continent have undergone a major change.
Those who came out are basically about to pass the tribulation and ascend to heaven. With these ancestors sitting in the seat, those forces will naturally go to the next level.
But more of them were defeated.
The Sword-asking Sect also lost three Mahayana and Tribulation-crossing elders. If it weren't for the fact that the Sword-asking Sect still had two Tribulation-crossing ancestors, it would probably have been coveted by other forces.
Before the Fairy Island Secret Realm was closed, Shen Zhiyin didn't come back.
Everyone thought she was dead, but soon the Sword-asking Sect spread the news that Shen Zhiyin's life lamp was on.
Those who were ready to make a move were even more afraid to move.
When in Dongzhou, Shen Zhiyin took out the portrait of Jun Yuan, and the Jun Yuan who walked out of the painting gave Dongzhou a great shock.
The news also spread to other continents.
In addition, Shen Zhiyin cultivated to the Mahayana level in a short period of time and also comprehended the Star Map. Even those forces with many Tribulation-crossing cultivators did not dare to act rashly, for fear that Shen Zhiyin was really still alive.
But a hundred years later, Shen Zhiyin still showed no sign of returning, and some forces began to stir again.
On this day, there was a loud noise in the sky, and the Sword Sect was attacked.
Several great masters who had transcended the tribulation besieged the Sword Sect together.
Nan Shu and another Sword Sect master who was in retreat were alarmed, and they all flew into the air to confront those masters.
"What do you mean?" Nan Shu narrowed his eyes and asked coldly.
"What do you mean? Two hundred years ago, you Sword Sect killed my Hou family's descendants, and today you are naturally here to seek justice!"
What justice? It's just an excuse.
These people have been coveting the Sword Sect's Sword Tower for a long time, especially after Shen Zhiyin comprehended the Star Map from the Sword Tower.
The Star Map was too tempting for them. With it, they could create a world of their own even in the upper realm. Of
the seven great men who had transcended the tribulation, Nan Shu and another ancestor tried their best to intercept five, while the remaining two dispersed to attack the mountain protection formation of the Sword-asking Sect.
"Everyone, defend the mountain protection formation!"
The leader led the elders of the Sword-asking Sect to resist the attack of the two great men who had transcended the tribulation.
But this was not something that could be stopped by numbers. The difference in cultivation level was like an endless ditch.
In a short period of time, more than a dozen elders of the Sword-asking Sect were killed.
The Sword-asking Sect leader's eyes turned red.
Other disciples also flew out to fight to the death.
The Shen brothers were among them.
Shen Xiu Nan faced the two great men who had transcended the tribulation very calmly.
"Form a sword formation!"
All the disciples of the Sword Sect, including the Shen brothers, stood up, and under the command of Shen Xiunan, the sword formation was formed.
Many of them cooperated tacitly to form a powerful sword formation, trapping one of the great tribulation masters.
Another great tribulation master was trapped by the master and the other elders.
Even if they died, they would do their best to tear off a layer of skin from them!
"You are looking for death!"
The great tribulation master trapped by the sword formation felt ashamed.
He stared at the commander Shen Xiunan.
"Shen Zhiyin's nephew is indeed a good seedling."
Hearing his words, the Shen brothers were nervous.
The great tribulation master ignored his own injuries and only hit Shen Xiunan with all his strength.
Shen Xiu Nan was now at the level of a combined body, and he was locked by the Tribulation Master and could not escape.
He tried his best to block a sword, but his sword broke and he was knocked out.
"Puff..."
Shen Xiu Nan's bones were broken and he died
. The other brothers of the Shen family went crazy.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Shen Muye rushed out like a mad beast.
Shen Xiu Ran, Shen Mu Jin, and Feng Yang all rushed forward with red eyes.
With their combined efforts, they used all the weapons they could to attack, and finally bit off a piece of flesh from the Tribulation Master.
But they only had one breath left.
The Tribulation Master was angry and humiliated.
"If you want to die together, then I will fulfill your wish!"
He said with a grim expression and attacked the people below with all his strength.
When the attack was about to fall, the invisible big palm blocked it.
The next second, the space tore apart, and Shen Zhiyin walked out of it.
After seeing the situation of Wenjian Sect, the second nephew who had already died, and the other nephews who were seriously injured, the energy storm centered on Shen Zhiyin spread out.
"You..."
She slowly turned her head and looked at the old ancestor who was crossing the tribulation.
The old ancestor's pupils shrank when he saw Shen Zhiyin, and the warning of danger made him turn around and want to run.
But in the blink of an eye, Shen Zhiyin appeared in front of him.
Puff...
The old ancestor felt a pain in his body, and when he looked down, it was Shen Zhiyin's five fingers that formed claws, which instantly pierced his body and crushed his dantian.
"You are looking for death."
Her voice with infinite coldness rang in the ears of the old ancestor who was crossing the tribulation.
This old ancestor who was showing off his power was killed by Shen Zhiyin in just one encounter.
His soul wanted to run away, but was caught by Shen Zhiyin. He was burned to death without even a chance to beg for mercy.
The next second, she appeared in front of another tribulation ancestor.
When the ancestor saw his accomplice being killed in just one encounter, he wanted to escape, but he failed.
He could only ask others to save him.
"Shen Zhiyin, don't be so arrogant. Can't we kill you with so many of us?"
So two people were left to hold back the seriously injured Nan Shu and another tribulation ancestor of the Sword Sect, and the remaining tribulation cultivators all besieged Shen Zhiyin.
Shen Zhiyin faced them, but he did not lose the upper hand.
But soon, another tribulation master came.
The head of the sect looked at the people who came and his expression changed drastically: "Demon Lord, you actually cooperated with the demons!"
It wasn't just the Demon Lord who came, but also many demons.
The Demon Lord sneered at the people of the Sword-Asking Sect and Shen Zhiyin.
He looked at Shen Zhiyin with hatred in his eyes.
"Shen Zhiyin, you didn't expect that you would fall into my hands one day."
Shen Zhiyin looked at him coldly: "You didn't die, you are really lucky."
The Demon Lord was hunted down and killed by her in his previous life, but he didn't expect that he was still alive.
"You didn't expect it, I didn't expect that you were still alive after your body was chopped off, we are the same."
He clapped his hands with a wicked smile: "Kill them, and from now on, this Sword-Asking Sect will be the territory of my demons."
As he said that, he also attacked Shen Zhiyin, and brought a few subordinates who were
also at the level of transcending tribulation. No matter how powerful Shen Zhiyin is now, she is at a disadvantage facing the siege of so many tribulation masters.
But she didn't panic.
The Demon Lord laughed: "I heard that there is a man who is stronger than the Tribulation Master by your side, why didn't he come to protect you?"
Shen Zhiyin was covered in blood, staring at the Demon Lord and laughing.
The Demon Lord had a bad feeling in his heart because of her smile.
Shen Zhiyin: "Since you want to see it so much, then I will let you see it!"
As she said that, she threw the painting.
The Demon Lord's face changed drastically: "Destroy the painting quickly."
Unfortunately, the painting could not be destroyed.
Jun Yuan came out from inside, and he came out in the form of a black dragon.
All people put together are not as big as the huge black dragon's eyeballs.
The black dragon opened its mouth and swallowed up the Tribulation Masters who besieged Shen Zhiyin.
The Demon Lord used the teleportation talisman to run away.
But before he could run far, the black dragon appeared where he landed and crushed his body and soul with one claw.
Shen Zhiyin sat on the back of the black dragon with a pale face and red eyes.
"Jun Yuan, go back."
Shen Zhiyin's voice was weak, completely lacking the strength she had when facing so many tribulation-crossing masters before.
The black dragon obediently returned to the Sword-asking Sect.
As soon as it appeared, it killed most of the demons.
The remaining demons saw that the Demon Lord was dead, and the black dragon was so powerful that they had no intention of resisting, and immediately fled.
The disciples of the Sword-asking Sect chased after it with hatred, they must kill those demons!
The black dragon landed and turned into a human form, holding the weak Shen Zhiyin in his hands.
"My second nephew."
"Don't worry, his soul is still fine."
Shen Zhiyin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it, that's good, as long as his soul is still there. As soon as
he breathed a sigh of relief, he fainted completely.
"Little aunt."
The Shen brothers, who were seriously injured but not dead, came over with Shen Xiunan's body.
Their eyes were red from crying.
After going through so much, this was the first time they watched their brother die in front of them.
Jun Yuan hugged Shen Zhiyin and said, "As long as his spirit is still there, we can rebuild his body."
Hearing this, the Shen brothers were instantly encouraged.
"The second brother, he can still live."
Jun Yuan nodded, and the Shen brothers cried around Shen Xiunan's body.
That's great, at least he can still live.
