71.Shadows of the Past

After a day of nothing, the time in Taogong's barrier came to the next day, which was the time when Bai Hou was about to take Gelsemium and the others into Jianmu Palace.

Fisher and the others got up very early. Mikhail seemed to have had a good rest last night. After stretching, he said hello to Fisher and prepared to go to the main hall. Fisher waited at the door.

For a moment, it wasn't until Asuka Karasawa, who lived next door to him, opened the door that he leaned up from leaning against the wall.

"Hey, good morning, Teacher Fisher!"

She didn't notice Fisher when she came out. It took her a few seconds to see Fisher standing in the corridor. She was so frightened that she immediately stood up straight and said good morning to him.

"morning."

Fisher glanced up and down her white robe and raised his eyebrows, as if he felt something. Then he suddenly walked towards Karasawa Asuka, gently grabbed her right wrist, and lifted her wrist.

A leaf with magical luster was revealed between her white robes.

In Fisher's eyes, such magical fluctuations were not limited to the leaf in front of him. Fisher glanced up and down her body and sighed,

"Didn't you have a rest last night? You carved so much wind magic, at least dozens of them, and they were hidden all over your body."

Feeling Fisher's gaze, Asuka Karasawa felt a little embarrassed, but for some reason she covered her chest with her left hand. She pursed her lips slightly and hurriedly explained to Fisher,

"No, no, I didn't carve for a long time. It was only two hours at most. I still had a good rest... I originally wanted to rest directly, but I couldn't fall asleep no matter what, so I..."

Two hours?

Fisher glanced at the dozens of four- and five-ring magic spells all over her body again with some disbelief. You must know that Fisher only had such a fast engraving ability after reading the Soul Replenishment Manual to gain the soul's strengthening ability.

, and Karasawa Asuka's soul strength seems to be inherently excellent, and she is extremely talented in magic. Even without the assistance of magic materials, she can make extremely unstable magic structures stable.

He glanced at Asuka Karasawa who was looking at him longingly for the last time, then suddenly let go of her hand and said with a smile,

"You have been able to learn more profound magic. I am not afraid of being proud of you. Apart from magic creators, you are probably the fastest human being to learn magic. I think that even the best magic masters in history have not been able to do so.

To your right."

"Really?!"

Asuka Karasawa's expression immediately brightened up, as if the crying idiot yesterday was not her.

I saw that her face was full of surprise, not only her expression, but also her face was lifting up little by little, as if her nose was going to reach the sky.

That idiot in studies, Karasawa Asuka, who is the weakest person in the world, also had such a day!

Karasawa Asuka felt that she had never loved learning so much.

Fisher nodded with a smile, and then his expression suddenly turned expressionless. Then he pointed at the dozens of magic spells hidden in Asuka Karasawa's white robe, and said,

"Well, but I have a question for you... We are now going to enter the Jianmu Palace to meet the Elf King. You have such obvious magic fluctuations hidden all over your body. It is undoubtedly like going in naked with a bomb tied to it. If you can get in,

There is a ghost."

Before Asuka Karasawa's expression was bright for more than a second, her face fell. She quickly covered her body and whispered,

"Mr. Fisher, did you follow Heller's bad example and start to like to tease others...Mr. Fisher, bad."

Did you learn bad things from Heller?

Fisher might have originally thought that it was part of his nature, but after hearing what Asuka Karasawa said, he blamed the bad angel for this fault.

"Then...then I'll go back to the room and take out all the magic leaves. I'm sorry, I didn't think of this at the time."

Asuka Karasawa was just about to turn around and go to the room to take out the leaves she had carefully hidden in her clothes this morning. Fisher had taught her that it was best not to stack magic on top of each other, especially if there were no restrictions.

time, otherwise it would be easy to accidentally touch it and cause an accident, so she hid one piece in one place, and hid dozens of such leaves in her robe.

Seeing her idiotic look that was completely opposite to her magical talent, Fisher couldn't help but sigh and hooked his hand at her.

"Turn around and face me."

"Why?"

Asuka Karasawa was confused at first, but her body obediently turned her back to Fisher, and the next second, Fisher gently bit her index finger.

Needless to say, after strengthening his physique, this step alone was a bit difficult for him to do.

Then, Fisher slowly touched the position on the back of her crest with his bloody fingers.

Feeling the warm and moist fingers touching her skin, Karasawa Asuka flinched and stood up straighter with a tremble. Just as she pursed her lips and kept swallowing her saliva,

, Fisher’s steady voice came from behind,

"The fluctuation of magic is essentially a weak echo of the world. The higher the ring number, the more obvious this echo is, but there is no way to block it. Set up another simple magic so that the magic fluctuation it emits is different from the previous one.

The world's reverberation hedges, so that perception can be blocked. We call this magic [shielding item]..."

Ahhhh, what is Teacher Fisher talking about?

It seems to be a very important thing, but I can't listen to it at all...

It's so itchy, so hot, and the sound is so close...

I...I'm just a teenage girl in high school. Studying under such a challenging situation...is like studying mathematics. I can't do it at all!

"It's done... Got it?"

"Yes Yes!"

Asuka Karasawa blushed and responded loudly. Those who didn't know thought she was going to sail a warship. But just when Fisher nodded and was about to leave for the main hall, Asuka Karasawa, who was blushing slightly, was embarrassed.

He turned to look at Fisher, stuck out his tongue awkwardly and said,

"But...it's not that clear? Mr. Fisher, hehe..."

"..."

Maybe he just made a mistake by praising her magic talent?

Fisher suddenly thought of this.

But there is no time to take classes with her now.

Fisher glanced at the corridor, then patted her head gently, and went to the main hall in front with her.

...

...

The time for breakfast was skipped. Anyway, to Fisher and his group, the food in the barrier had no taste at all. They just pretended to eat a few bites in front of Bai Hou.

However, from the time Fisher first appeared, to eating, and then getting on the sedan chair to Jianmu Palace after breakfast, Gelsemium's resentful eyes never stopped looking at Fisher, which made Fisher feel a little embarrassed.

He avoided looking away, as if he felt a little guilty for leaving him alone in the hall to face Baihou yesterday.

"last night..."

"I keep my integrity like jade and am loyal to my wife."

Just as Fisher opened his mouth, Gelsemium next to him, who was finally willing to close his eyes and rest for a while, suddenly opened his mouth, blocking out everything he wanted to say.

Although everyone knew that Gelsemium would never do anything to be sorry for his wife, it was better not to explain. This explanation made Asuka Karasawa and the unsmiling Mikhail in Xunri laugh.

Fisher himself couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere inside and outside the sedan was suddenly filled with joy.

Fortunately, Baihou was sitting in the sedan chair in front due to etiquette and did not face them face to face at this moment.

Just when Fisher was about to laugh, Gelsemium's resentful eyes followed him again. He didn't make any more jokes about this wife-disciplined whaleman. He just looked out the window of the sedan and saw the elf.

In the Holy Land, there is a royal palace named "Jianmu Palace".

The elves respect giant trees, so they also love the land. It is true that the Wooden Palace is built on the ground, but the closer you get to the World Tree, the more serious the terrifying space turbulence becomes. It is even worse than Fisher's previous experience in the North.

What I saw was even scarier.

In front of the giant tree, a majestic red wooden building slowly appeared in front of Fisher and the others.

But it was completely different from seeing a building normally. In front of Fisher and the others, the space was stacked together like a crystal flower with hundreds of petals. It was like a mirror being shattered from the middle, thus bursting out.

Like countless crystal reflective fragments, each fragment presents a complete building, and only when the buildings in the countless refracted spaces are completely added together is the real palace, the Jianmu Palace.

"Is that Jianmu Palace?"

Everyone was shocked by this spectacular aspect, but they were already accustomed to Gelsemium, who had been here once. He was really confused about something else.

Gelsemium frowned, pointed at the scene in the folded space, and said,

"The hundreds of space entrances here lead to many places, so this is not only the residence of the Elf King, the place where the elves worship and divination, but also the only entrance to the World Tree. The World Tree we see outside

It is the external phantom of the demigod. Her real body is too huge to be shown in full. The entrance to her branches can only be found from the Jianmu Palace...

"But you see, the space above is blank. It was not like this when I came here before. At that time, I could clearly see the location of the Elf King's palace here, but now I can't see anything."

Fisher looked along the direction pointed by Gelsemium, and sure enough he found that at the destination of their suspended sedan, one of the hundreds of overlapping spaces was completely blank, as if the shadow of fate was lost at this moment.

As a result, nothing is visible.

"This is the fate that Mr. Tao said was obscured by the transferred person, so she can't see which elf is assisting?"

Gelsemium stared at the blank space for a long time, then shook her head and said,

"I always feel like it doesn't look like it...we'll see about it later."

"Um."

The sedans entering the Jianmu Palace had to go through a lot of scrutiny. The first person to examine them was a huge tree man. It didn't seem to be a living thing, but it was too huge to look like. It sat dully in front of the countless overlapping spaces, like a tree.

Like a giant tree hundreds of meters high.

Seeing the sedan approaching, the tree man's body suddenly lit up with starlight. Fisher and others immediately felt the danger, as if they sensed the fluctuation of a destructive weapon similar to that of the Yuzifang axis before, which was enough to strangle anyone below the mythical level.

Any being, even a being at the mythical level, would probably not end well if he tried to eat that weird space-axis light ball.

But at this moment, a demi-human race with three strange bird claws suddenly flew in from the space above. The sub-human race was dressed in the official robes of the royal capital and covered with golden feathers.

When he saw the sedan, he stood firmly on the tree man and said,

"Welcome to Marquis Bai, Your Majesty, please come in."

As the weird demi-human spoke, the tree man beneath him that was about to move finally calmed down little by little.

After that came the second inspection. At this time, they needed to get off the sedan, and everyone including Bai Hou had to verify their identities. Fortunately, Bai Hou gave the Elf King a trick yesterday and transferred the three of them.

The identity of the person has been reported.

I saw two giant fox-headed demi-humans about three meters tall slowly walking out of the illusory space gap in front of me. At the same time, they said to Bai Hou in the sedan,

"The king is very happy and wants to see these three people who have been transferred immediately. Baihou, please slow down the medical treatment for a while. The king just finished seeing Uncle Chun, and he is not in a good mood. Please wait in the palace for a while, waiting for the king.

After seeing the transferred person, call the doctor into the hall."

"Bo is ordered."

In front of these two huge and elegant fox-headed demi-humans, the carefree Baihou was unexpectedly calm. She bowed honestly, and then looked at Gelsemium behind her, gesturing to him and herself.

Stay together.

And Gelsemium glanced at the blank space in the space, not knowing what would happen if he entered it, so he quietly looked at Fisher, only to see him nodding to him after thinking for a moment, and then

He took a step forward and followed behind the pair of fox heads.

"Please come this way."

The pair of fox-headed subhumans then nodded, turned around and walked into the almost blank space. As expected, they completely disappeared after getting into the blank space of fate.

Scheer was stunned for a moment, then looked back in the direction of Bai Hou, and found that Gelsemium's expression was a bit serious, but Bai Hou looked like he didn't see anything.

It seems that the beings inside the Peach Blossom Barrier cannot feel this blank space. In their eyes, the two fox-headed demi-humans must have just entered the Jianmu Palace normally.

Fisher stood in front of the crack in space for a moment, and then slowly walked into the blank space.

Just as he expected, there was no wooden palace at all when entering the crack, only a void of nothingness.

He frowned and looked around, looking at the silent blankness around him, but he vaguely noticed something wrong, but before the inspiration burst out, Mihayiner behind him also entered the blank space one after another.

.

"There is nothing here. Is it the hidden destiny that the elf said?"

"I always feel that it's not that simple... What was it like when you saw me coming in from outside?"

Mikhail turned his head and looked behind him. The crack they entered behind him could not see Asuka Karasawa who had not yet entered. Of course, he could not see Baihou and Gelsemium. Then he said,

"To us, it seems like you disappeared suddenly. But Baihou didn't seem to notice anything strange at all. It was as if you were following those two fox-faced monsters, and he urged us to follow you quickly."

"Taogong's barrier is a projection of fate. The shadows inside will act according to their own logic, so they appear to be particularly real. But essentially, nothing happens here... So, probably the people here are really interested in us.

Even if we take action, nothing will happen to us."

Mikhail did not comment, but still reminded,

"It's better to be careful."

"Um."

Just when Fisher turned his head to continue observing the blank space around him, trying to find some clues, the crack in the space behind him trembled slightly, and then Asuka Karasawa rushed in with her eyes closed.

"Teacher Fisher, ah!

!”

"...What's wrong?"

Fisher was startled by her surprise and thought that something happened outside. However, Asuka Karasawa breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that both of them were fine, and said embarrassedly,

"Sorry, I saw you disappeared suddenly, so I was a little scared and didn't dare to come in... Then... Then Bai Hou kicked me in and said that the messenger had been waiting for me for a long time, but I clearly knew

Nothing was seen or heard..."

"...That's it, but there is nothing in it. Tao Gong's method of relying on the transferred person to see the hidden truth failed."

Fisher looked around at the blank space and suddenly felt a little confused.

To be fair, even if the transferred person can interfere with the exploration of destiny to a certain extent because of the chaotic aura on his body, can he really do such an exaggerated thing?

The Jianmu Palace was completely blank, with nothing there, as if an entire destiny had been cut off, as if it had never existed.

The transferred people should be ordinary human beings. According to Tao Gong's introduction, the transferred person should not have been in this world for a long time, only a few years at most. How could he develop into the future society of creation?

What's that level?

Looking at the blank space in front of him, Fisher seemed to notice something amiss.

But while he was thinking hard about the pass, he did not realize that when Asuka Karasawa entered this blank destiny gap, pieces of peach blossom petals began to fall faintly in the sky, but those petals had just begun to fall.

A bright golden light suddenly burst out from a very far away direction.

The light was pure, and in an instant it covered the peach-colored petals, dyeing the blank space with layers of shadows.

And among these layers of golden shadows, the blank space next to it began to slowly fade, slowly revealing a majestic red building.

"Mr. Fisher, look, it seems...it seems that the situation around you has changed."

Fisher opened his eyes and saw that the surrounding environment gradually became as real as the outside, and the outside of the space crack where they entered also began to show colors.

At this moment, the three of them were standing on the side of a pavilion in front of the majestic building. They were quite far away from the space crack they entered, so they were completely hidden in the lush greenery.

"what happened?"

Fisher was a little confused and looked in the direction of the entrance to the space crack. He saw the two tall demihumans with fox faces who had led the way slowly walking into the entrance. They seemed to be leading the way for someone.

"Lord Baihou, I would like to remind you that the king is not in a very good mood. He will need to ask the doctor you bring later to be careful in his words and actions, especially since he is a foreigner."

Fisher frowned and saw the two giant fox-faced men followed by Bai Hou and the whale-human Gelsemium carrying a medicine box with a look of despair on his face.

"It's Mr. Gelsemium."

Karasawa Asuka whispered a reminder, but Fisher raised his finger at Karasawa Asuka, as if he noticed something was wrong.

Even Mikhail next to him realized it, and he said,

"That's not Gelsemium... at least not the Gelsemium around us, that's him in the past. This should be what happened when Gelsemium came in half a year ago? But shouldn't this place be hidden? Why suddenly...

.Where did the real Gelsemium go?”

Fisher looked at the Gelsemium that followed Bai Hou slowly away, and he had a vague suspicion in his heart.

"Here...it seems to be the shadow of the fate of the transferred person that was hidden before. But because the shadow of fate outside has been disturbed by us entering the barrier, the shadow that was hidden before is not there.

Therefore, it is misplaced. Gelsemium is still in the shadow of its previous destiny, that is, outside the space gap; and we, who are located in the space gap, have truly returned to half a year ago.

"It is equivalent to three transferred people appearing in Jianmu Palace out of thin air."
