As soon as Ash left the golden mist area, he knelt down on the grass and gasped for air.
He watched his withered arms gradually regain their flesh color, his breathing became smoother like a broken bellows, and his sluggish thinking became sharp again like rust was removed. He felt grateful to have escaped.
Only now did he realize that it was such a blessing to be able to think about an idea seriously and continuously.
When the soul gets old, thinking will become a luxury. Thinking is like a machine that is severely stuck. Let alone executing a task process, even if you try to call up the task manager to organize your thoughts, you will only find that the task manager is also stuck.
Already.
After trying it once, even Ash couldn't help but feel a little fear.
Aging is truly an indescribable horror.
Suddenly there were footsteps coming from behind. Just as Ash was about to turn around, he heard a hoarse old voice screaming: "Don't look back!"
Ash obeyed obediently and stared at the grass for a few seconds before hearing Sword Girl's voice: "Okay."
He turned his head, and what caught his eyes was the still young and beautiful Sword Princess and Witch.
"Actually, I don't mind seeing you aging." Ash shrugged, "On the contrary, I'm quite curious."
"But! I! Mind!" Sonia gritted her teeth and said: "Next time I won't go there again! The books are all lies. Who said you can make a fortune by picking up garbage in Time Continent? Whoever wants to pick up the money can pick it up.
!”
Just now, Ya Xiu and the other two entered the most famous adventure area in the Time Continent - Liujin River. The area around Liujin River is filled with wild time magic spirits, including rare species such as 'Nian Nian', 'Ding Yue', and 'Listen to the Sun'.
As mentioned before, "Nian Nian" can reverse the time of a person's body by one year, which is equivalent to extending life without side effects. It has always been a valuable but unmarketable treasure.
'Fixing the Moon' is to fix the physical condition at this moment for one month. Although it will still be injured, the skin, appearance, hair quality, etc. will not be affected by the outside world. With "no makeup level makeup", "radiant",
Beauty miracles such as "glazed hair" can easily achieve a top-notch appearance for up to a month, and are not afraid of wind and sun, even if you take a bath or dive, it is known as the top cosmetics.
As for the "Listening to the Sun" series of magical spirits, they are even more powerful, so I won't mention them for now.
All in all, Liujin River is a place of adventure in Time Continent that specializes in providing welfare, and the magic spirits near Liujin River will not run away. When faced with alien invasive species like magicians, they will even take the initiative to come up and beg to be touched. This vigilance
The heart is lower than that of a milk cat.
It stands to reason that once magicians encounter a good place like this, they will not leave without digging three feet into the ground and three inches into the sky. However, Ash and the other three rushed out within ten seconds of entering. A genius like Sonia.
The village girl who is not afraid of the God of Killing is now looking back at the golden mist area near the Liujin River, with fear even showing in her eyes.
Because if they had run slower, they might have fallen by the Liujin River and died of old age.
The reason why Liujin River can gather and breed so many time magic spirits is because the area around Liujin River has the characteristic of time acceleration.
For time magic spirits, Liujin River is like an all-you-can-eat and play hot spring buffet area, and time acceleration is like a Thai spa massage. They can not only experience top-notch enjoyment by staying here, but they can also enjoy it over time.
Evolved into a two-winged magic spirit, it can be called a spa club for time magic spirits.
But for magicians, Liujinhe is simply an experience store opened by Hell in the Time Continent.
Just like the area without the Liujin River is called the "quiet realm", and the still time will solidify the magician into a painting; then the area near the Liujin River is called the "moving realm", and those who dare to step into the moving realm
Magicians will age and wither at an accelerated time of ten thousand to billions of times, and the rioting time will disintegrate the magicians into dust.
And unlike the quiet and elegant death in the quiet realm, the death in the dynamic realm is clear and cruel.
If the normal passage of time is like a urine test, then the acceleration of time near Liujin River is equivalent to the release of water from the dam. The magician's soul is washed away by this crazy time and almost collapses, which is why the body decays, breathing difficulties, and thinking are sluggish.
The appearance is like steel being corroded by the air and causing rust.
That's why people like Ash and others are so scared.
Because this time they really smelled the smell of death.
They have known a lot of death, such as being bitten and killed by a creature of knowledge, being killed by a magician's projection, drowning in the sea, solidifying in the quiet field... But these are abnormal deaths that will not happen in reality. Even if they happen, magic will
Teachers also believe in their ability to avoid it.
Only aging is different, because all existence will decay, and stars will one day be extinguished. This is the law of all things. Even immortal species such as Blood Saint Yueying only live forever physically, but their souls will eventually reach the end one day.
Ash looked at his white and strong arms, but in his mind he thought about the rotten hands that were like dead branches. He knew that if he was lucky enough and lived long enough, sooner or later he would see those hands again one day.
Aging represents death that cannot be resisted. They are like ants in front of the wheel, they can only watch the wheel of time roll over.
This kind of weakness that cannot struggle is the source of inner fear.
"feel better now?"
Ash and Sonia's hands were held by another pair of soft hands. Looking back, they found Diya looking at them with a slight smile.
Feeling the warmth in their hands, their fear quickly dissipated.
They were just frightened by the illusion of aging for a moment, just like a primary school student who just got out of summer vacation dreaming that he didn't do his summer homework and was discovered by his teacher. And Diya's gentleness was like a friend calling him early in the morning to tell him to go out to play.
Let them realize that they still have a good life to live, and they will naturally get out of the quagmire of fear. Even if they will face the end of being scolded by the teacher sooner or later, that is not what they have to worry about now. Anyway, let's finish this period of youth first.
Ash asked: "Witch, have you been to Liujin River before?"
"This is the third time." Diya nodded: "When I escaped from Liujin River for the first time, my face was uglier than yours. Aging is indeed terrible, and we must respect time.
, but there is no need to feel inferior because of this, let alone admit defeat.”
"We are magicians, born to conquer everything. And it's not like there are magicians who have successfully conquered time."
Lord God!
This term came up in Ash and Sonia's minds at the same time - as the supreme being who controls the fate of hundreds of millions of people, turns his own will into God's will, creates and controls various kingdoms, the life span of the God Lord must exceed the existence of the kingdom. Perhaps
It has lived for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
If there are magicians who conquer time in the world, then God Lord must be one of them.
A wishful desire quietly sprouted in the hearts of the two of them.
Not only Sonia, a greedy village girl who longs for fame and wealth, but also an old social beast like Ash, who has been turned into marshmallows by society, seems to be back to the time when he just graduated from college, with the thought of relying on his own power in his heart.
The unrealistic goal of buying a house in a big city.
