Pushing the upper and lower hemispheres until they are parallel only uses one-tenth of the gravel in the hourglass, not because of anything else but because the real time reversal has not yet begun.
At the moment when the upper and lower hemispheres were on a horizontal line, the shrouded soul of Quins stood still. It was the stillness of time and the stillness of years.
The soul, which is heading towards death all the time, stops at this moment in eternity.
However, this stillness only existed for a moment, and the balance was broken.
The next step is the most difficult moment. The flipping of the ball's up and down position also means that time begins to flow backwards.
Going back in time may seem simple, but it is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface. Even an extraordinary person who specializes in time can only stop time in a certain area for a short period of time. The so-called secret technique of going back in time is actually not as simple as it seems on the surface.
It can only be regarded as a pseudo-time reversal.
The principle is that by intercepting the time flow in a certain area, you can freely control time to speed up, slow down, stop, or even flow backwards.
However, when this time reversal rejoins the long river of time in the intercepted area, it will be washed away by the invisible tide of time and restore its original appearance. Therefore, this time reversal secret technique is generally only used in combat.
among.
Therefore, if Quins wants to restore his soul, it is impossible to use this kind of time magic, because it will be in vain. As long as the area he is in reintegrates into the river of time, his soul will collapse immediately.
But now the time inversion used by the four Quins does not separate an area to manipulate time, but directly uses it to resist the passage of time. Even if it is only a short period of time, it is extremely difficult.
Yes, this is a complete reversal of time.
It's just that the hourglass of time gave Quins this precious opportunity, so he naturally wouldn't fail to seize it.
Just when the hourglass of time deflected again, a strange wave suddenly appeared in the long river of time, just like a stone thrown into a calm lake, its ripples immediately alarmed the native creatures in the long river of time.
A small time vortex appeared.
At this time, the Dragon of the Past and the Butterfly of the Future pushed the hourglass of time, not rotating even one degree. The power required and the force of the counterattack increased exponentially.
Once, twice, three times...
By the time it reaches fifteen degrees, the time it takes to burn the sand and the force of the backlash are already staggering.
Although the cost was huge, the effect was outstanding. The cracks in Quins's soul had been closed by one-third in an instant. This was not an ordinary recovery, but a stage where he had healed to the point where he was not injured.
No sequelae at all.
At this point, the time required to push the time hourglass by one degree is more than fifteen minutes.
The long river of time has no beginning and no end, and is vast. There are countless protozoa living in it, but this number does not seem to be much when placed in the long river of time.
However, an hour passed, and finally, the first time protozoa arrived before the time vortex caused by the time hourglass.
This is a time worm, which is as big as a small building. However, despite its size, it is the most numerous creature in the river of time. It is the lowest creature and can only be hunted by other giant beasts of time.
Their only way out is to fight, devour each other, and then evolve upward into more powerful forms.
It can be said that more than 90% of the time beasts in the long river of time came here this way.
The remaining 10% is the various opportunities in the long river of time. For example, the time vortex in front of you is a very rare phenomenon in the long river of time. If it is swallowed by a giant beast of time, it can immediately evolve continuously.
Several forms.
Time worms are the slowest, no, more precisely, they cannot walk, and their movement depends on the flow speed of the river of time.
This shows that this time worm must be near this section of the river, and it is possible for it to arrive here at such a slow speed.
"Chi!" The time worm let out a cheerful cry and shot out a time tentacle from its mouthparts. This is the time worm's only tool for eating and fighting.
To determine whether a time worm is powerful, it mainly depends on two aspects of its time tentacles, one is the number, and the other is the thickness.
After the time tentacles grow to a certain extent, they will enter a state of natural division and differentiate into more tentacles. Therefore, the number of tentacles is the most intuitive expression of the strength of the time worm. Only under the premise of the same number, tentacles will be compared.
sturdy.
At the core of the time vortex, there is a sparkling crystal. This crystal is called an inverse crystal. It is a precious time material that is born in the long river of time when someone attempts to reverse time. It is also the target of the time worm.
However, although this is Quince's disaster, it is also his opportunity. If he wants to obtain the reverse crystal, he must participate in the operation of the time vortex. This will help promote the operation of the time vortex, and then affect the rotation of the time hourglass.
.
Of course, despite pushing, the tentacles of the time worm will penetrate deeper and deeper into the core of the vortex, and finally it will be swallowed up happily.
Sure enough, after the time tentacles penetrated the time vortex, the resistance of the dragon of the past and the butterfly of the future in pushing the hourglass of time was suddenly reduced a lot.
In just ten minutes, the hourglass of time turned once again.
In just one hour, the time hourglass was pushed seven degrees again. As the time tentacles deepened, the interference with the time vortex became stronger and stronger. Naturally, the backlash force shared by the time worm for Quines will also change.
big.
Unfortunately, the help will eventually run out. As the hour progresses, with the help of the tentacles of time, the inverse crystal becomes larger. At this time, it is time for the time worm to eat its mouth.
As the lowest creature, the time worm only has simple wisdom, so it will not deliberately wait for the growth of the reverse crystal, and in the end it will reap rich fruits.
Once the reverse crystal is moved, it means that Quines' time inversion will end in failure, and this result will cause Quines' soul to collapse on the spot and die completely.
The thick tentacles swayed slightly, and the Time Worm was naturally very excited about the inverse crystal that was about to be obtained.
In an instant, the tentacles swung hard towards the inverse crystal. As long as the inverse crystal shifted, the time vortex generated on the periphery would naturally dissipate.
At this moment, in front of the reverse crystal, a throne suddenly appeared, and the person sitting on it was none other than Constance.
On the throne, five complicated symbols rotate in unison, and it can be seen that the two symbols on the left are complete.
The rotating symbol emits a time barrier, immediately blocking the attack of the time tentacles.
