Chapter 317: River of Time, Wanderer Returns

~8 min read 1,455 words

One "Mother," exhausted the wanderer's longing.

The old beggar lay on the crystal coffin and cried bitterly.

At this moment, he was not an old man at the end of his life, he was just a wanderer who left home at a young age.

The old beggar sobbed woo-woo-woo.

The little girl Liu Yingxue also accompanied him and sobbed woo-woo-woo.

Zhang Xingyu thought for a while and finally didn't open his mouth to comfort him.

Demon King Hali stood beside him, looking around indifferently.

After a while, the old beggar stopped crying and stood up tremblingly.

He put the little girl's hand into Zhang Xingyu's hand: "Zhang Xingyu, help me take good care of this girl."

Zhang Xingyu nodded. He had already promised the old beggar once, and didn't care about promising him one more time.

The old beggar instructed the little girl twice more, then turned and walked straight toward the Life Lotus beside the altar.

Zhang Xingyu and Demon King Hali led the little girl and exited the water pool.

The old beggar said he wanted to ripen the Life Lotus in the pool, he wanted to use the lotus seed of the Life Lotus to wake up his sleeping mother.

Beside the lotus flower, the old beggar sat cross-legged.

He reached out to untie the gourd from his waist, then raised his head and took a sip.

"Good wine! It's a pity I won't be able to drink it in the future, just drink enough at once."

He raised his head again, and the wine flowed into his mouth continuously like the Milky Way of the nine heavens.

After the wine in the gourd was completely gone, he wiped the corner of his mouth and praised again: "Good wine!"

After drinking the wine, a look of determination appeared on the old beggar's face.

He stretched out the withered index finger of his right hand and poked it on his left chest.

Blood gushed out.

Accompanied by the gushing blood, a seven-colored radiance burst out from his chest.

The momentum on the old beggar's body actually rose straight up at this moment.

Qi Refining Stage...

Foundation Establishment Stage...

Golden Core Stage...

Nascent Soul Stage...

Transformation God Stage...

Zhang Xingyu looked at the old beggar blankly. Although he had once seen Tang Yunxi lift the seal on her body, he had never seen a mortal transform into a Transformation God Stage expert in a moment like the old beggar.

After the seal on his body was lifted, the old beggar immediately seemed like a different person.

He was imposing and handsome, his eyes were sharp, and a head of black hair fluttered in all directions.

At this moment, Zhang Xingyu felt a huge pressure.

His bones creaked.

This was the result of too great a difference in cultivation.

At this moment, Zhang Xingyu had the feeling of having a fish bone stuck in his throat.

All along, he had thought the old beggar was a pitiful mortal. Thus, his endless love flooded.

He swore to help this pitiful old man realize his last wish before he died.

Didn't expect that this pitiful old man was actually an expert he couldn't reach.

After the old beggar restored his expert cultivation, his movements didn't stop.

His hands danced non-stop, and golden runes surged on the dirty gourd in his hands.

Immediately following, a golden light shot from his brow and disappeared into the mouth of the pitch-black gourd.

The gourd began to shake violently.

A moment later, the gourd made a muffled sound.

A golden river of light flew out from it, surging and flowing in front of him.

River of Time.

Zhang Xingyu recognized at a glance that what was floating in front of the old beggar was a river of time.

It was just that this river of time was different from the river of time he had seen before.

The river of time he had seen before seemed to be still, while this river of time was surging.

Could it be...

Zhang Xingyu had just had a guess in his heart, when the old beggar had new movements.

He carefully held up the Life Lotus and placed it on the river of time.

In an instant, the Life Lotus began to wither.

At the same time, a lotus pod the size of a peanut was born in the heart of the lotus flower.

The old beggar held the Life Lotus gently.

His hair gradually turned white, and his skin began to wrinkle.

At his feet, a seven-colored Life Spring slowly rose from the water pool.

Along the old beggar's body, the Life Spring continuously surged into the lotus pod in his hands.

The petals gradually withered, the lotus pod kept growing, and a faint fragrance emanated from inside the lotus pod.

Zhang Xingyu looked at the old beggar blankly.

This old guy really has courage, he actually wants to use the river of time to ripen the Life Lotus.

A quarter of an hour later, the first layer of lotus petals turned into light and dissipated.

Two quarters of an hour later, the second layer of lotus petals turned into light and dissipated.

Three quarters of an hour later, the third layer of lotus petals turned into light and dissipated.

An hour later, the Life Spring in the water pool was completely dried up.

"Clatter!" A crack broke on the surface of the lotus pod.

A brilliant light burst out from the crack.

In an instant, a sweet smell filled the entire space.

Zhang Xingyu took a deep breath.

The fragrance entered his lungs and melted into his blood.

In an instant, he felt his lifespan increase by one point.

Just then, four figures pounced toward the old beggar.

When he saw these four figures clearly, Zhang Xingyu's heart tightened involuntarily.

These four people were exactly Chu Kuangge, Yuan Wushang, Wang Yuyi, and Shen Xueyi, who were fighting for the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Cauldron outside.

I don't know when, these people stopped fighting and entered this space silently.

Zhang Xingyu felt secretly guilty.

Why was he so careless?

Said to be slow, then fast, Chu Kuangge and the four had already pounced in front of the old beggar.

They reached out for the lotus pod in the long river of time in unison.

The old beggar didn't block them, and he didn't want to block them.

Zhang Xingyu wanted to block them, but he couldn't.

Seeing the hands of Chu Kuangge and the four reach the lotus pod, Zhang Xingyu thought it was bad.

Just then, the complexions of Chu Kuangge and the four changed greatly.

The fastest was Wang Yuyi. Just as his right hand reached into the long river of time, the life essence in his body was uncontrollably extracted. In an instant, Wang Yuyi's arm withered, and his long hair turned white like snow.

Chu Kuangge and the two behind him secretly called it bad.

Although they wanted to withdraw their hands, they found it was already too late.

Chu Kuangge's palm reached into the long river of time, and his entire arm withered instantly. Chu Kuangge was also a decisive master.

He saw his left hand wave, and his entire right arm was already severed at the shoulder.

At the same time, his body fell sharply, narrowly avoiding the long river of time.

Shen Xueyi's speed was only a line behind Chu Kuangge.

When her slender jade fingers were inserted into the long river of time, her fair and flawless jade arm began to wither.

Shen Xueyi's reaction was also extremely fast.

She saw her open her mouth and spit, and a transparent ice arrow shot toward her palm.

"Pop!"

That palm instantly froze into ice and shattered.

Borrowing the reaction force of the ice arrow, Shen Xueyi used a swallow-skimming-water move, and her delicate body skimmed over the long river of time lightly.

Yuan Wushang had the weakest strength among the few, and his speed was the slowest.

However, he was the luckiest one among the four.

His palm only touched the edge of the long river of time.

However, even so, his palm withered and shrank instantly.

Yuan Wushang was worthy of being a powerhouse in the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

A golden light shot from his palm, and his body had already flown backward like an arrow from a bow.

The three surviving

Beside the River of Time, Wang Yuyi was still struggling in agony.

"Save me!" He turned around and reached his withered left hand toward Shen Xueyi.

Shen Xueyi's pretty face shifted several times, but in the end, she did not make a move.

"No!"

Within the space, Wang Yuyi's desperate wail echoed.
