Chapter 204: Going Far Away to Capture the Demon
The sky was filled with scarlet light, which flowed out from Yousha's palms and continuously poured into the giant metal ball. It took about two hours to be completely absorbed and return to calm.
"Buzz!"
The next moment, the object roared and trembled, shrank rapidly, and became embedded in an ancient magical book.
Yousha was so tired that her back and waist ached. She stretched out her arms and turned around lazily.
"Any instructions for me?"
The beautiful and deep eyes stared at the gray-haired young man standing beside her.
Yousha picked up the half cup of coffee on the table, drank it all, regained some energy, and began to ask about the purpose of the visit.
"Come with me on a trip to extract someone's memory."
"When?" Yousha did not refuse.
"Now."
Jiang Mo didn't want to wait for a moment.
"Okay, I'll change my clothes."
Yousha went to the blind spot of her vision to change her clothes, and Jiang Mo's voice sounded outside.
"What was that creation just now?"
"Destiny Reversal is a special ancient magic. It is still in the experimental stage. I am not sure if it can be fully reproduced. Geniuses in the academy have made self-proclaimed "modifications" to it, which caused this magic to completely lose its original effect two hundred years ago."
As Yousha spoke, she took off her thin clothes.
Jiang Mo waited patiently, and took advantage of this opportunity to talk to her: "Effects? Can you tell me in detail?"
“You can return to a point in your memory in a short period of time, but it will not change the current world or history. You can think of it as an existence that is infinitely close to a real dream.”
"It's a bit complicated to tell you this, Master. Do you know? At this moment of our conversation, countless possibilities have emerged. Each possibility will continue to develop and form a different world line."
"You can't change your past, present, or future fate by retracing your fate, but you can use a certain moment in your current world line as the starting point and throw out a hook toward billions of moments in any stage of your life in the past. After building a solid bridge, you can climb to the past world like a pirate attacking a ship to observe and even change everything in that world."
"Fortunately, I have some understanding of your country's culture. To describe it with a metaphor that you can accept more, it's like 'Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly'. That world is a dream that can never become real for you, but you are a real individual that exists intermittently in that world."
"The world line you are currently in has already completed the end of the past. It is a development that keeps moving forward and is full of infinite possibilities."
"But the world line you are anchoring to exists in the past. Just like the world line you are in, the past ends and the future develops. You can influence its development, but its development will not have any impact on your present."
Yousha was very happy to discuss the topic of magic with Jiang Mo. Of course, this was also the only area she was proud of.
After changing her clothes, she came over lightly and asked with a smile, "Am I speaking too fast, Master?"
"No, I understand what you mean. Your so-called fate retracing reminds me of the warlock's inner world, but your method is more special. You can actually go to an extremely similar world. I didn't expect this. It's amazing."
Jiang Mo was generous in his praise. He had traveled far and wide for many years, and even though he had seen many strange and bizarre methods, he still admired Yousha's knowledge. Whether in magic or alchemy, she had talents beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"Interior view? It is said that this is a unique ability of yours. You can realize any desire in it, but it is extremely difficult to get out."
Yousha followed Jiang Mo's footsteps, left the third floor, and went up along the wooden stairs.
"Yes. According to what you said, fate reversal will have a time limit, affecting the present and past worlds;"
"If you sink into the inner scene, it will affect the individual's thinking consciousness. There is no time limit. It is like falling into a deeper level of a dream. The longer you stay in the inner scene, the slower time passes."
Speaking of this, Jiang Mo was moved, and a familiar face naturally emerged in his mind.
However, the next second, his thoughts were interrupted because he had reached the fourth floor and all the disciples were waiting for his orders.
Cheng Zhen, Lu Jin, Zhuge Yu, Chang Qing, Shui Yun, Wei Er, as well as Li Qing and Sheng Sheng who were summoned to guard the Qi Diagram.
"Boom!!!"
The silvery white lightning outside the window was like a dancing mad snake, tearing the dark sky apart. In the instant of reflection, one could see that everyone's expressions were cold and murderous.
"Uncle Master, please lead us down the mountain and kill the demon with your own hands."
"Ah."
"I won't keep you waiting long."
Jiang Mo stretched out his right hand, the kingdom of heaven opened, a transparent vortex appeared in an instant, and two guardians and five disciples entered one after another.
"Shengsheng, Liqing, I leave the task of guarding the sect to you. If you encounter any trouble that you cannot handle, tear up this talisman and you will be able to see me."
Before leaving, Jiang Mo handed them a 'Human World Within Reach Talisman' that he had practiced yesterday.
"Yes! Disciple obeys your order and awaits your triumphant return."
Facing the vast night, Jiang Mo set out on his journey in the continuous dark rain.
"boom!!!"
The next moment, as the two disciples looked up, a hundred-foot-long blazing silver light shot up into the sky, like a brilliant Milky Way falling down to the earth, mighty and mighty, cutting through the endless darkness and disappearing into the depths of the turbulent sea of clouds.
Southern Xinjiang.
The thick fog in the early morning had not yet faded. In the ruins of the Luowuyuan clan site, a ragged figure walked out of the dense jungle. Countless thorns, weeds, mosquitoes, beasts, and all living things and plants within a radius of dozens of meters withered and died at a very fast speed.
The mountains before my eyes were riddled with holes, with signs of collapse and fragmentation everywhere. In the distance, there was a hideous hole left on the towering mountain. The village of the past had evaporated alive.
"Do not!!!"
Wu Gensheng took stiff steps, walking on the deep ravines on the surface. He found it hard to accept it for a moment. He searched the entire ruins, but all he saw were two familiar corpses and a dilapidated wooden house on the edge of the village.
Bending over to observe, he confirmed that the bodies came from Liu Po and the chief priest.
Wu Gensheng became confused and slumped on the ground. The village disappeared. Where on earth was his daughter's body? !
Is that monster still alive?!
Wu Gensheng, who had no clue what to do, felt waves of pain. He had been accumulating anger all the way, but now he had no one to vent it on.
Originally, he wanted to die. As a father and with dignity as a man, he would accept it even if he died at the hands of a monster.
But the result now is that the monster's whereabouts are unknown, he has come to nothing, his brain is a mess, and he doesn't know what to do.
"Where did they go?"
"Is this a battlefield for fighting?!!"
"Trinity Gate. It must be Trinity Gate."
"He had last contact with them!!"
Wu Gensheng leaned alone on the ruins. He looked at the battlefield in front of him and couldn't imagine how brutal the fight was to reach this point.
However, even so, he did not give up his obsession to find his daughter, but the situation became more difficult and deadly.
All the clues on Luo Wuyuan's side were cut off, and Wu Gensheng didn't even have the chance to find a wandering ghost to question.
As for the Trinity Gate, he was unsure of Jiang Mo's condition, and he didn't dare to take the risk to go there.
In addition, the fate of a monster like the ancestor is too heavy, so heavy that it cannot be calculated. Even if Wu Gensheng goes to sects such as Tiebanxian, Tianjilu, and Wanxiangtang that are good at divination, it will probably be in vain.
"How...what should I do..."
Wu Gensheng's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like he was about to be possessed. After saying goodbye to the eight people, he had been rushing here day and night. Not only was he exhausted, but he also had a lot of depression in his chest that was hard to get rid of.
He curled up on the ground, the blood in his body was running hot and cold, his teeth were almost broken by hatred;
Hot tears slid down from the corners of his eyes uncontrollably. He lowered his head and cried silently. His long-numbed heart seemed to be cruelly torn apart again and pierced by thousands of silver needles.
He hated his cowardice and incompetence. He watched Feng Ying being taken away. He neither accompanied her to death nor took her out of the village in advance. The root of all the tragedies lay in the mistakes in his every decision.
What made him even more desperate was that he was a 'Qi Infant' derived from someone. Ever since he came into contact with the Double-Handed Hands and the source of the Qi body, he had been filled with a fear that went deep into his bones.
He couldn't be sure whether there were any special methods left by that person in his body. He couldn't be sure that one day his memory and consciousness would be modified, and he would no longer be himself. In this way, all his life experiences so far would become meaningless.
Feng Yao will die, but Qiying will live on with a new identity.
"Am I parasitized?"
“No, I’m not a Qi baby.”
"I'm Feng Yao."
"I'm Feng Yao."
"I'm Feng Yao."
Wu Gensheng said this over and over again, reinforcing the psychological suggestion again and again. He was trembling violently all over and was extremely uneasy. In the dark, it seemed as if his life had come to an end.
"Boom!!!"
At this moment, the sea of clouds shook, and white light that penetrated the void arrived from the end of the sky in an instant. A tall figure stood in the air, and the thick fog near the ruins dissipated, and the sun shone.
Wu Gensheng looked up in horror and saw the scene he least wanted to see in his life.
His shadow - Jiang Mo from the Trinity Sect stood in the clouds and looked down at him. His sharp eyes looked like a towering mountain, pressing him down to the point of mental collapse and almost suffocating him.
"No!"
“You’re not real!!”
Wu Gensheng's face turned pale and he retreated repeatedly. Even with the Eight Unparalleled Skills, he didn't think he had any chance of winning.
In just a moment of eye contact, the difference between a firefly and the bright moon was vividly reflected in his heart. His blood seemed to solidify, and every inch of his flesh and blood was throbbing, unable to move.
A strong intuition told Wu Gensheng that the other party might kill him in just a thought.
The Jiang Mo in front of him was much more terrifying compared to the one in the battle at Longhu Mountain.
"call out!"
Time stopped as a streak of light swooped down so fast that Wu Gensheng couldn't react. He didn't even have the chance to use his Eight Great Skills. As the invisible vortex expanded instantly, he was drawn into the kingdom of heaven.
"boom!!!"
There was an explosion in the void, with air waves rolling. Jiang Mo's speed reached an extreme speed, radiating the surroundings. After he disappeared, the white clouds shattered and the ruins collapsed again.
