Ash didn't expect that fate could be so strange.
The legend standing at the top of the magicians, swimming desperately in the golden river.
The remnants of the Gray Foxes from the previous era, the first thing they did after waking up was to kill each other.
And the enemies who didn't want to breathe the same air or look under the same sky half an hour ago were forced to cooperate with each other to overcome the difficulties.
Until now, Ash, the intruder, finally sorted out what had happened.
There is no doubt that Yin Deng had no idea about the Chanming Food Sharing Plan. She only knew that Ye Jiang had left a Divine Fire System that could be activated, but the Divine Fire System required citizen identity authentication, so she broke into the Transcendence Sect and took away the Mingzouxian Dafa.
As for how she knew that the Ming Zou Xian Da Fa could provide her with citizenship, and that there was a Divine Fire System in Nightfall... there were too many sources of information, the magician manual in the virtual world, the secrets of the sect she destroyed, and even that she herself might be a magician from a faction related to the prophecy of destiny.
In this world, not even the dead can keep a secret.
Moreover, although Ash didn't like Silver Lantern, he also admitted that Silver Lantern did have extraordinary persistence and action. For someone like her, as long as she set her goal, the whole world would give in to her.
Just as she said in the Beyond Building, destiny is the echo of people's cries into the void.
But Yin Deng just wanted to become a divine fire seed, but she didn't expect that the divine fire was only a sub-item of the trial here. Because she became a divine fire seed with the talent of extreme time, she instinctively aroused the resonance of the virtual realm, so that the Gate of Truth could not hold it back and directly opened to let in the flowing golden river water.
Other legendary magicians were in the same situation. They were sealed in statues. In addition to trying to stop aging, the more important thing was to use the external environment to forcibly close the door of truth... Ash thought of a very crude metaphor, but he resisted the urge to think about it further.
This is also the reason why the legends have been sleeping for more than two hundred years without suffering from sequelae such as 'undirected insane intermittent systemic dysfunction', because the sequelae are essentially the result of the poisonous corrosion of the Liujin River water, but they always maintain their extreme time talent and can swim freely in the Liujin River, so how could they be poisoned by the Liujin River water?
Although they all encountered accidents, Silver Lantern was the one who "didn't want to appear but appeared", while the Legends were the ones who "should have appeared but didn't appear".
For this group of former legends who are still lingering on, Fang Yuanchan's immortality plan is their last straw. They would have accepted it if the plan failed, but they did not expect that the plan did not even reach the last step.
According to Ash's guess, the Fangyuan Chan sect probably wouldn't dare to fool these legends. After all, the legends are not lone wolves, they have friends and mentors. If the Fangyuan Chan dares to cause trouble, the magicians outside will not be sealed.
However, things are unpredictable. A "great catastrophe" broke out in Senluo, and all the magicians and even adults disappeared, so the Chanming Project was shelved indefinitely. It was not until he and Yindeng broke in that the immortality plan that had been sealed for more than two hundred years was started again.
Thinking of this, it would be a lie for Ash to say that he had no regrets - if he had not come in, the result would definitely be that Silver Lantern would die here by his own fault. If they waited for a few days and found that the vampires had disappeared, they could happily look for a way to go home and quickly leave the Senluo Wasteland, and go to Gospel, the Stars, or even the Blood Moon.
At first, when I faced the blood-mad hunter Gerard, I was captured by him like a minion, but now, I am already a sanctuary magician. If I meet him again, I will definitely make him... unable to capture me.
Ash would be a fool to go against the Blood Saints. After all, Gerald was not targeting him, but the cult leader Heath. Gerald was just performing his official duties. If he really returned to the Blood Moon, he would at most help Harvey to avenge himself, visit friends like Freya, and then continue to find a way to cross the country.
However, he had to enter the trial anyway. Although he had the good fortune of meeting an observer, he could not escape now!
The Liujin River erupted, and the Fangyuan Cicada was resurrected. However, the trial participants could not share the immortal Fangyuan Cicada, and instead became its snacks!
Moreover, they started fighting before Fang Yuanchan caught up. The speed of the Liujin River was related to the number of tributaries. The slower the speed, the further they could swim. The number of tributaries was related to the life and death of the magician, so the more people died, the farther the remaining people could escape!
This group of legendary sanctuaries who can reverse the laws and reverse cause and effect in the outside world launched an unprecedented battle royale in the Golden River.
"Yibachi, Casnas, I'll go to Ruby Mountain and wait for you!"
Following the shrill curse, a nearly three-meter-tall legend was washed downstream by the Flowing Gold River. He might have some strange bloodline, or he might have strengthened his body through a miracle of suffering and weakness. In the outside world, his huge body must be a high-resistance armor or even magic-immune armor. However, in the Flowing Gold River, his huge body can only become the best target.
His hands and feet were broken, his joints were twisted into a frightening arc, and his wrists were bleeding. It was obvious that his tendons had been cut. Otherwise, this legendary magician would not have been completely incapacitated.
At this time, Fangyuan Cicada had just finished eating the previous snack, and nature immediately gifted it with such a large and chewy delicacy, and even its cicada chirping became excited.
But as the legends expected, it does not move while feeding, and so remains at the end of the Flowing Gold River.
Feeling the current slow down, everyone stopped fighting and rushed to get upstream. However, after the previous fight in the water, everyone subconsciously separated, and Ash and Weisser stayed at the end of the team, not daring to get close to the main group.
When Messi, who was at the front, encountered extreme resistance again, he turned around and looked at everyone.
“It’s so sad.”
He said: "I, Meis Wu Bainian, am a three-series legend, the director of the Institute of [Blood of the Immortals], I have traveled to four countries, explored the angels' treasures, and am known as the "Gear of Time". Before me, no time legend could compare to me. After me, Skadi, Yuni, you are just successors who follow in my footsteps."
The person pointed at by Mei Si did not refute, which shows that Mei Si is indeed a lofty legend in the Gray Fox Age of Gods, second only to the Great Law of the Age of Gods.
"Now, the era we are familiar with has passed, and we, the remnants, will pay the price for our cowardice and become food for the Fangyuan cicada." Mei Si said, "We will bite each other like fish, shrimps and crabs, just to fight for a glimmer of life... But if we can't eat a bite of Fangyuan cicada, even if we can walk out of Liujin River, how long can you and I live? A month? Or an hour?"
The legends' expressions changed slightly. Unlike Ashweiser, they joined the Cicada Project because they had little time left. Once they left here or their time gift expired, they would be like those antiques sealed in tombs, quickly rusting or even rotting, like bubbles that burst at the touch of a finger.
"Death is the only inevitable fate." Ash heard the silver lamp beside him whisper, "Only eternity is the only salvation."
Ash almost forgot that he was still holding Silver Lantern's hand. The two of them did not have the legendary life span, and they had to be spliced together to barely go back in time. Ash was very dissatisfied and blamed himself for having to cooperate with Silver Lantern to survive. Now Silver Lantern dared to preach (actually talking to himself), he couldn't hold back his revenge for a while, so -
Squeeze her hand hard.
Weisser turned around in shock, and Ash, who had come to his senses, blushed. Either he let go and slashed at the man from behind, or he held his hand tightly and fought side by side. What kind of childish revenge was this? This was Liujin River, not a kindergarten class.
When Ash was about to let go, he felt a pain in his hand. It turned out that Yin Deng was holding his hand tightly. The two of them were doing a trick that even kindergarteners would disdain, holding each other's hands tightly in the water to get revenge.
"Messi," Scarlett opened one eye, revealing the clock eyeball inside, "If you have something to say, just say it."
"There's no use running away." Mei Si said, "Let's continue with the plan. We must eat Fang Yuan Cicada."
"How do I eat it?" Another person said, "I didn't replace my teeth with the sharp teeth of the Violent Dragon."
"Didn't you bring a knife and fork?" Meis took out a dagger. The gray light of the blade looked familiar to Ash. "Even though it's so powerful, it can only resist the Flowing Gold River and can't withstand the poison of the Fangyuan Cicada, but even if we can cut a wound and drink a little juice, it will be considered a victory for us."
It was then that Ash suddenly realized that their clothes, weapons, and even Silver Lantern's mask had not been corroded by the Flowing Gold River, otherwise the massacre would have turned into a mass bath. However, the Flowing Gold River could not only affect living things, which only meant that the effects of the Flowing Gold River were taken into consideration when the clothes and weapons were designed.
Ash looked at his own sweet words and treacherous heart, and realized that nothing had happened. It seemed that the production of "Aurora's Sorcerer's Manual" was quite reliable.
"You mean, we go back together and severely damage Fang Yuan Chan, and eat as much as we can?" Casnas was very worried: "But——"
"Do you think we have any other way to survive?" Meis asked back, "Walking out of the Liujin River, taking a look at Senluo two hundred years later, and then having our souls annihilated, is that so attractive to you?"
"We no longer have a past," Meis bit the dagger, "We can't even have a future!"
"While it's still eating!" He jumped and rushed downstream towards Fang Yuanchan, "Gear of Time, Mei Si!"
Ashweiser heard several sighs from the legend, followed by a series of final songs:
"The famous sword Moon Shadow, Disco."
"Night and flame, Hokata."
"Phantom Bird Flying, Cecil."
"Silver Triumph, Kathryn."
In an instant, nearly ten legendary magicians followed Mei Si to attack Fang Yuan Chan. Fang Yuan Chan was still eating the giant legendary and didn't seem to care about their actions.
Chop!
When the Disco legend swung his sword, a continuous sword shadow suddenly appeared, as if it cut into Fang Yuanchan in an instant. Even if Ash was watching from a distance, his hair stood on end, and a chill ran down his midline, as if he was being chopped!
Legendary swordsmanship!
There were no magic spirits, no miracles. Just by swinging the sword, coupled with his extreme time talent, he was able to create a sword that distorted time and even caused mental shock from a distance!
If he were to perform his sword-fighting miracles recklessly outside, a large number of onlookers who just saw him slashing might die!
"coward."
Silver Lantern’s taunts were always so timely. Ash glanced at her coldly and suddenly grabbed her wrist - I admire you. How did you manage to keep goose bumps off your palms?
Aren’t you also scared by the legendary swordsmanship, you bastard?
Although the other legends did not have legendary swordsmanship, they more or less had sanctuary-level melee capabilities. They hurt Fang Yuanchan one after another, and they actually left him with wounds that were oozing juice!
Is it actually useful?!
Just when Weisser was about to make a move, Ash suddenly grabbed her hand and swam forward desperately!
"Know--"
Before the legends could lick it with their tongues, Fang Yuan Cicada let out an unprecedented cry, and all the injuries on its body disappeared in an instant!
"Yes——"
With the second cry, the legends that besieged Fang Yuan Cicada turned into a pile of dry bones in clothes!
Even the legend that had not yet jumped onto the Fangyuan cicada but was just a little closer to it turned into dry bones!
What was striking was that the golden river water around Fang Yuanchan suddenly became a little empty, but was quickly filled up.
The trial-taker was almost speechless with shock at this scene. Suddenly, a middle-aged magician appeared near Ash and the other person. It was Meis.
Meista stared at Fang Yuanchan closely, with both fear and fanaticism in his eyes.
"Fang Yuan Chan... can actually cast spells?"
