No one noticed that at the moment when Zhu Jiuyin's body turned into powder, a long river of time slowly flowed past. Through the boundless void, it was somehow connected with the rich power of time on his body, blinding everyone.
perception.
Just listen to the melodious bells ringing in the long river of time, invisibly confusing the time and space in the outside world.
Then, the person who was standing in the past suddenly stretched out his right hand, and in the distortion and confusion of time and space, he sucked the true spirit of the ancestral witch and the three floating drops of blood into the long river of time.
I don’t know how long time passed. When the true spirit completely merged with the essence and blood and took shape again, Zhu Jiuyin opened his eyes and saw that he was in a deep valley. The rich spiritual energy rushed towards his face, mixed with moist water vapor.
, fresh and moist.
Zhu Jiuyin looked around and was convinced that it was a strange place, and it didn't seem to be on the mainland.
Just when he was puzzled, a clear and ethereal voice came: "Congratulations to fellow Taoist on your new life. After sleeping for 48,000 years, do you still recognize your old friends?"
Zhu Jiuyin looked up and saw a young Taoist standing in front of him, looking at him with a smile.
Looking at the familiar person in front of him, Zhu Jiuyin felt as if he was in another world. He bowed his head and said, "It turns out it was Dongjun who saved me. Zhu Jiuyin is extremely grateful."
Prince Dong waved his hand, and a pavilion appeared in front of him. There were tables, chairs, and tea and cups in the pavilion.
"Fellow Taoist, please."
Zhu Jiuyin nodded, sat across from Prince Dong in the pavilion, and asked curiously, "Fellow Taoist, can you clarify my doubts?"
Prince Dong said fairly: "Of course. You were killed by Emperor Jun that day and the body of the ancestral witch was killed. Donghuang Taiyi also followed to destroy your true spirit. However, Pindao used his past body to summon the river of time and ingested your true spirit and the essence and blood of the ancestral witch.
Among them, I saved your life."
Zhu Jiuyin said: "It turns out that my Taoist friend saved me, but what happened next? How is our Wu Clan doing now?"
Duke Dong Wang slowly explained the situation that day and said: "Now both the Lich and the Lich tribes are working hard to restore their strength. Most of the ordinary demon soldiers of the Demon tribe have suffered casualties. These are the foundations accumulated since the beginning of the world. To fully replenish them, it will take at least
In a few Yuanhui's time, we won't be able to deal with the Wu clan for the time being."
Zhu Jiuyin asked: "What about my witch clan?"
Duke Dong said: "In addition to the small and big witches who suffered a lot of losses, the twelve ancestral witches of the witch clan were also seriously injured. It is estimated that they have not fully recovered yet, otherwise they would have gone to avenge you long ago."
Zhu Jiuyin thought about the situation of the Wu clan and felt heavy, saying, "Fellow Taoist, please send a message to my brothers to prevent them from being sad."
Duke Dong said: "My Taoist friend has now transformed into a human form and can go back at any time. There is no need for this poor Taoist to take any extra steps."
Zhu Jiuyin thought about it and calmed down, but when he recalled the battle, he couldn't help but wonder: "How did fellow Taoist save me under the eyes of all the innate gods?"
Dong Wangong said: "If it were someone else, it would be really difficult to save me, but fellow Taoists are different. Although you practice the law of time, even if it is not at the expense of your own essence and blood, you will not be able to connect with the long river of time at will, but once you die, the time on your body will
Power will return to the long river of time."
"Pindao took this opportunity to reverse time and space with the Jingyang Bell in the long river of time, echoing the laws of time on your body, and took away your true spirit and blood essence along the passage of the return of the power of time."
Zhu Jiuyin nodded and said: "That's it. The power of time is intangible and intangible, and it can reverse the past and future. The true spirit is mixed in, so it is indeed difficult to detect."
Duke Dong said: "Another point is that Pindao's cultivation level is much higher than theirs, and he has the power of an innate treasure. Combined with the power of time, it is not too difficult to hide it from them."
Zhu Jiuyin said gratefully: "Fellow Taoist, thank you for taking the trouble."
Dongwang Gongdao said: "Pindao owes you a cause and effect. A drop of your essence and blood helped Pindao open the road and was a blessing to me to become a Taoist. This is why I can enter and leave the river of time at will in the quasi-sage realm."
The reason. Now that I save your life, it can be regarded as the cause and effect."
Zhu Jiuyin smiled and said, "One drop of blood essence can exchange for one life, but I've made a lot of money."
"This is also the law of time that fellow Taoist is destined to practice. Otherwise, even if I can absorb your true spirit into the river of time, you will not be able to resist the erosion of time, and you will still die."
Duke Dong Wang made a cup of spiritual tea, pushed it to Zhu Jiuyin, and then said: "And without the nourishment of the long river of time, you would not have been able to reappear like this in just tens of thousands of years, and your understanding of the way of time would be even more profound.
Better than ever.”
Zhu Jiuyin agreed: "This is indeed a great opportunity for me. I can absorb the power of time in the long river of time that only Hunyuan can enter and exit at will. Compared with absorbing the turbid energy in Buzhou Mountain, I can
It’s many times better.”
Duke Dong said: "This means that every loss must be followed by a gain. Now that you have died once, you have escaped the disaster, but you still want to go back to the Witch Clan?"
Zhu Jiuyin said without hesitation: "Of course I want to go back."
Dongwang said fairly: "Now that you have absorbed Pangu's essence, blood and the power of time, you have transformed into a human form. You have lost the innate turbidity in your body and have given birth to a soul. You are no longer the same creature as the other ancestral witches. You can take the opportunity to jump out of the Lich Kingdom."
If you want to escape the calamity, turn to the Hongjun Avenue. If Pindao can help you bridge the long river of time, your future will be limitless."
Zhu Jiuyin shook his head and said firmly: "Once you are a witch, you will be a witch forever. Without me, the Dutian Shensha Formation will not be able to exert its strongest power. Once the demon clan sets up the Zhoutian Star Dou Formation again, our clan will
Defeat is inevitable. The kindness of Taoist friends is in my heart."
Duke Dong Wang said regretfully: "If you continue to be watered by turbid energy and follow the path of body refining, although you can recover your strength very quickly, you will not be able to keep the soul you finally gave birth to."
Zhu Jiuyin said with emotion: "It's hard to have both ends of the world. For the Wu Clan, a soul is nothing."
Duke Dongwang thought of the purple energy in Pangu's heart and deeply felt sorry for Zhu Jiuyin. If he knew what opportunity he had missed, would he still be so determined?
"What do you plan to do after your fellow Taoist returns?"
"Although I have gone back, Zhu Jiuyin has long since died. There are only eleven ancestral witches left in the witch clan. The Dutian Shensha Formation will never be able to compete with the Zhoutian Xingdou Formation."
Prince Dong held his hands and laughed: "My fellow Taoist is a wise man of the Wu clan. In this way, the demon clan will not be too wary of you. When you all advance to the late stage of Quasi-Saint, Pangu's real body suddenly reappears. I believe Emperor Jun's expression will be certain."
It’s going to be exciting.”
Zhu Jiuyin said: "There is nothing we can do about it. Now I only have the early stage of Daluo cultivation. All my brothers have not recovered from their injuries, and they are still unable to compete with the demon clan. If Emperor Jun knew that I was still alive, I am afraid he would ignore me.
Everyone takes the opportunity to attack and destroy our clan."
Dongwang said fairly: "It's just that if my fellow Taoist falls into a catastrophe again, the consequences are unpredictable, and I may not be able to save you a second time."
Zhu Jiuyin smiled: "Heaven and earth are transformed by Father God Pangu. Even if he dies, he will just return to the embrace of Father God. After I died once, I have become indifferent to it."
Prince Dong stopped persuading him and asked instead, "Do you know a senior named Zhulong?"
Zhu Jiuyin frowned and thought deeply. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it."
"Oh!" Prince Dong remembered that the Dragon of Zhongshan once helped him achieve greatness, which was considered a great favor to him.
"Emperor Jun is the leader of the demon tribe, and he once attacked Zifu Continent. He can be said to be talented but not virtuous. How could fellow Taoists and others tolerate this person sitting on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven?" Zhu Jiuyin changed the topic.
"This is appointed by the Taoist ancestor. As disciples who listen to the Tao, how can we resist his order?" Dong Wanggong explained casually.
"Fellow Taoist also has the fate of the Emperor of Heaven. If you kill Emperor Jun, the position of Emperor of Heaven will be yours. Haven't you thought about it?" Zhu Jiuyin said half jokingly and half tentatively.
Prince Dong narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "If it were before, it would be nothing. But now he is the nominal Lord of the Wilderness. If you kill him, you will have to bear huge karma, and there may be divine punishment. Unless
Like the witch clan, they go deep into the great catastrophe and fight to the death due to the entanglement of cause and effect. Otherwise, who would be an outsider willing to take action?"
Zhu Jiuyin groaned, knowing what he was thinking, and began to make silent calculations. After a while, he stood up and said: "If you don't show up again, I'm afraid my brothers will do something detrimental to the overall situation for revenge, so I'm leaving now.
"
Prince Dong stretched out his hand and handed over a basket. There were more than a dozen yellow-orange fruits in the basket, which looked like they were extraordinary.
"What is this?" Zhu Jiuyin was puzzled.
"There is a Huangzhong plum in the depths of Mount Tai with an innate earth-moving spiritual root. After my son Xuanming became the Lord of Mount Tai, he gave me the spiritual root as a filial piety. This fruit is the Huangzhong plum fruit, which contains the power of the earth-moving law. Later
Taoist fellow Taoist has helped me a lot, these fruits should be of some use to her, so Taoist fellow Taoist, please take them back with you."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist."
Prince Dong waved his hand: "You're welcome. Say hello to all the ancestral witches for me."
