Chapter 181: The Long River of Time
On a floating island with a radius of several hundred feet, a towering tree takes root in the center. The thick trunk is dark brown with rough bark. The crown is extremely open, like an open parasol, casting a large shadow. Fall to the ground.
The soil on the island is fertile, the grass is spread on the ground, and the flowers are in bloom. There are three lakes and water sources surrounding the big chun tree, forming a Z-shaped shape.
At this moment, the branches of the Dachun tree are lush and green, and each leaf is covered with golden light. It flows and circulates along the veins of the leaves, faintly showing the charm of the road, and the natural evolution of time runes.
The eight thousand year old season is about to change, and this large tree will move from spring to autumn. During this period, the tree will be fully "restless", and the laws of time around it will be affected by it, and natural wisdom will emerge. If the monks can Taking advantage of this opportunity to understand Taoism and practice, you will definitely gain a lot!
In the face of such a truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the third floor of the Pill Pavilion was crowded with people. Soon, the news spread like wildfire, and more and more monks rushed to this medicine island, like crucian carp crossing the river.
Not long after, this huge floating island was filled with people on the three inner and outer floors. There were even people hovering in the middle of the island.
For a time, Medicine Island was overcrowded. Looking from a distance, it was as dark as dark clouds. The only thing that could be seen clearly was the towering big Chinese chrysanthemum tree.
This made Zhou Hao, who had arrived early, feel helpless and said: "Well, I'm afraid this big chun is no longer available to me. With so many people watching, I can't buy it even if I want to."
"Idiot, what are you thinking? It's not like we want to buy the whole tree." At this time, Wugui's heartfelt voice echoed in Zhou Haoxin Lake.
"Ah? Don't you want to buy a whole tree? Aren't you talking about the big tree?" Zhou Hao was puzzled.
"It's true that it's Dachun, but what we want is just the buds of Dachun. But now it seems it's a pity that we can't buy them anymore..."
"Why?" Zhou Hao asked directly without thinking.
Turtle rolled his eyes.
At this time, various experiences in the mortal world flashed through Zhou Hao's mind. In the past, he was also an ordinary child living in the countryside. When he thought of the mortal toon similar to the immortal toon, he realized and said: "Oh oh oh, I understand, I’m confused. Just like the Chinese toon, the buds of the Chinese toon can only appear in the spring. Now is the time when the Chinese toon changes seasons from spring to autumn, so there will be no buds of the Chinese toon.”
"Hey, speaking of toon buds, the toon scrambled eggs are really unique in the world. It's so delicious!" Zhou Hao licked his lips and couldn't help but recall the wonderful memories of the time when a family of four would eat toon in spring.
"Is it really that delicious? I want to try it too." At this time, Hanabi also joined in the exchange of thoughts between one person and one turtle.
"Hey, Hanabi, aren't you used to the smell of cedar trees?" Zhou Hao said in surprise.
"Oh, I heard it's so delicious from what you described. People want to eat it too, right?" Hanabi said arrogantly.
"Okay, okay, you're just a greedy little cat. Then I'll make you a plate of toon scrambled eggs another day. My craftsmanship is amazing, so you're in for a treat." Zhou Hao boasted.
"No!" Hanabi said.
"No? Why?" Zhou Hao was puzzled.
"Don't make another day, just today, I bought you so many things, you can use this plate of food as collateral." Hanabi explained.
"I will obey Fairy Huahuo's decree!" Zhou Hao said seriously.
"Oh, of course it's easy to get the buds of the ordinary toon tree, but if you want the big buds of this tree, you have to wait for another eight thousand years. Ye! Qing! Knot!" The turtle stretched out a small black claw. He covered his face and sighed.
"There are more than just this big chun in the world, not to mention that it is impossible to refine the Nine Turns Golden elixir with our own strength. No, let alone refining the elixir, even finding all the medicinal materials is just a dream." Green Snake poured cold water on it.
"It is indeed the case, so I have thought about it. I still need to collect medicinal materials, but my biggest goal is not the medicinal materials themselves, but... tempering myself! Nine main medicines plus eighty-one side medicines, In the process of searching for them, I will inevitably go through countless ups and downs, and I will become more and more courageous along the way, which is suitable for sharpening my immortal path." Zhou Hao spoke with his heart, expressing his true thoughts.
After hearing this, Green Snake nodded and agreed with Zhou Hao's idea.
"Attention, the season change has begun." The turtle sitting cross-legged on Zhou Hao's shoulders kept his eyes fixed on the giant tree in front of him.
At this moment, all the immortals on the island held their breaths in unison, and the whole place was quiet, and you could hear a needle drop.
There was no wind, and all the leaves on the big chrysanthemum tree rustled in unison. The golden light flowing on the leaf veins became more and more dazzling. In just a few breaths, the entire crown of the tree turned golden.
Immediately afterwards, as if it were raining, countless golden runes poured down from the crown of the tree, dense as raindrops, and the tree trunk was directly submerged.
Soon, the "rain curtain" composed of golden runes completely isolated the huge tree, and the immortals could no longer see the true scene of Dachun at this moment.
At the same time, the tree body released circles of golden ripples, which spread to all corners of the entire medicine island in an instant. At this moment, the law of time in this space seemed to be extremely strong, and the immortals around Dachun were immediately affected by the golden energy ripples.
Almost involuntarily, their souls left their physical bodies under the wash of golden ripples, and the souls also saw new things that were different from the outside world at the moment of leaving their bodies.
Dachun, which was previously submerged by the golden runes and could not be seen, was actually entangled by a golden river. The river was in the shape of an inverted "ji", with no source or end visible.
The reason why the Yuan Shen can see the scene in front of him is because the golden ripples will merge into the Yuan Shen. These ripples are the fragmented energy of the time runes. They are contaminated with the breath of the time avenue, causing the Yuan Shen to be temporarily assimilated. Naturally, he can see through it. Rune pattern "Rain Curtain".
Boo hoo hoo…
The spirits of the immortals suddenly turned into bunches of golden light and rushed towards the golden river wrapped around the big chun. At this moment, everyone could see clearly that all the time runes emanated from that river.
Then, the foundation of this river is self-evident...
"Time flows!" The two beasts, the turtle and the green snake, looked at each other and said in unison.
"Oh my God, I never thought that there really is that legendary river in the world?" Zhou Hao was extremely surprised.
But after thinking about it, he felt relieved. Even gods exist, so it is not unreasonable to have a river of time.
"As long as we enter that river, we can go back in time and go upstream, and maybe we can find our lost memories." The turtle said very excitedly.
"Yes, everyone who enters the river of time can see a glimpse of their past and future. This is a huge opportunity that cannot be missed." Green Snake said.
"Wow, that's great. I'm going to try to see if I can find the whereabouts of my elder brother." Hanabi said happily.
"You can actually see the future? That's incredible. I want to see if I can reach the pinnacle of immortality in the future." After hearing what Green Snake said, Zhou Hao's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait.
I saw thousands of golden lights advancing in unison, and the immortals and spirits rushed to fly into the inverted "ji"-shaped river wrapped around the big chun tree, splashing countless water splashes, and in the water splashes, a series of pictures flashed rapidly, It's like showing a movie, telling someone's past and future...
Tick tock!
Zhou Hao's spirit had just entered the river of time. Before he could react, he was rushed downstream by the golden water flow. In the water, he could see countless blurred versions of himself, which was Zhou Hao in the future.
As Green Snake said, if you are in the long river of time, you can look at the past and get a glimpse of the future. The upstream is the past time, and the downstream is the future time.
Compared with the past, the future is naturally a taboo matter. The so-called secret cannot be leaked. Even if time goes by, it is impossible for people to peek into their complete future.
As he swam downstream, Zhou Hao's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he carefully watched the blurry images reflected in the water, hoping to see clearly what he would experience in the future.
Unfortunately, although he tried very hard to capture every frame of the underwater scene, he still found nothing. The scenes in the scene were too blurry. He could only see his own human silhouette walking, flying, and sitting quietly. I can't seem to understand anything else.
"Since ordinary fairy eyes don't work, then try this!" Zhou Hao put his fingers together and gently wiped his eyes.
Chi!
The red-clothed boy's eyes instantly turned golden, with large circles inside small circles, those golden double pupils. He wanted to use these eyes to see a clearer corner of the future.
Two beams of golden pupils shot out and looked forward. This time it was really different. Zhou Hao could not only see the outline of his future self in the water, but also the outlines of other people appearing in the picture. This was extremely Rare!
"That is……?!"
Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on a blurry picture somewhere. He saw what seemed to be a man in black knocking down his future self. Just when the man in black was about to give him another blow, a figure in red appeared. After enduring the attack for him, he then saw the figure in red turn into broken red shadows all over the sky. It was obvious that his body had been beaten to pieces. Seeing this scene, Zhou Hao felt that his heart had stopped beating.
Needless to say, that figure in red must be Hanabi. Will she be killed in the future? And he was killed to save himself?
Zhou Hao was about to collapse. How could this happen? How could Hanabi end up like this?
He tried his best to calm down, and continued to look at the scene with his golden eyes. After the figure in red was broken, Future Zhou Hao was obviously extremely angry. Although he could not see the details clearly, he could see that Future Zhou Hao supported his body to face the scene. He turned towards the man in black, his speed was far beyond what a seriously injured person should look like.
th! What kind of powerful enemies will he encounter in the future? Will Hanabi really die? This made Zhou Hao, who was paying attention to the corner of the future at this moment, feel extremely worried, and his heart suddenly entered eternal darkness.
In the blurry image of the future in the water, he saw his body being shattered like fireworks by the man in black. Then the scene changed and he could no longer see the aftermath...
