Chapter 368 The Light of Time and Space
A vivid, eerie pillar of blood-red light emanated from the sky, replacing its original color.
The world's light was stripped away at this moment, and the colors of the Starry Sky Forest were reduced to only red, an incomparably sinister red.
The world suddenly seemed to slow down in Ye Nanxiao's eyes at that moment.
Whether it was the leaves blown away by the violent impact, the surging water, or Di Tian's fearful expression, everything seemed to slow down in Ye Nanxiao's eyes, as if time itself had been frozen in place.
"Time?" Ye Nanxiao's clothes fluttered in the shockwave, as if only his own time was flowing normally.
Turning his head to look in the direction from which the red pillar was emitted, Ye Nanxiao saw a huge eyeball covered in blood vessels. Around the eyeball grew numerous tentacles, each of which was like a giant whip.
"So it was the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler. I should have realized it sooner. Who else could be able to pull such a stunt under Di Tian's nose, besides the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler, who is ranked second among the Ten Great Beasts and has a blood feud with Di Tian?" Ye Nanxiao said with a self-deprecating smile.
The space around Ye Nanxiao began to collapse, like a piece of glass being slowly shattered, with fragments falling off and revealing the spatial turbulence within.
The frozen flower fully bloomed, its petals unfurling and shimmering with layers of light that enveloped Ye Nanxiao.
Although the ultimate technique of the Evil Eye Tyrant was released by only a spiritual avatar, it was comparable to the spiritual power of a Limit Douluo. Moreover, the Evil Eye Tyrant used the spiritual avatar as fuel to enhance the power of the "Light of Time and Space".
Ye Nanxiao felt as if his mental power was being swallowed up by a raging, towering wave, like an eight-year-old child fighting a two-meter-tall giant, completely outmatched.
Faced with this intense red light that had once severely injured Di Tian, Ye Nanxiao instinctively rushed out and stood in front of Bi Ji.
His only reliance was the Frozen Flower, which kept him from dying.
The task given by Qiankun Wenqing Valley is to save Biji when she faces a life-or-death crisis, otherwise the task will fail.
Ye Nanxiao had planned to play the long game, but he never expected that what he caught was not a big fish, but a self-destructing truck!
Without much thought, upon sensing that Bi Ji was in mortal danger, Ye Nanxiao immediately stepped in front of her.
Not only because of the mission, but also because Brigitte is a good friend of the Snow Emperor.
Although Xue Di always looks disgusted when mentioning Brigitte, only close friends would talk about her all the time and always complain about her.
Spacetime began to distort, and time around Ye Nanxiao slowed down more and more.
In the eyes of Di Tian, Bi Ji, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Ye Nanxiao's time was magnified countless times, and his figure was distorted, like a stretched dough.
"No!" Brigitte cried out shrilly, her body surging with a sea of emerald green as she tried to save Ye Nanxiao.
However, Ye Nanxiao's figure had already been swallowed up by the "Light of Time and Space" of the Evil Eye Tyrant, and the surrounding space had also solidified.
With a wave of his hand, Di Tian unleashed a seven-colored dragon claw that annihilated the spiritual avatar of the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler, while the diffused "Light of Time and Space" was completely devoured by the strange energy surging around the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
In an instant, they all reacted, but none of them could stop the "Light of Time and Space" from continuing to spread. They watched helplessly as the thick red light swallowed the silver-white figure.
The frozen flower trembled and let out a mournful cry towards Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao stared wide-eyed as cracks appeared on the outermost petals of the Frozen Flower.
"You really are something else, calling yourself a salted fish with a dead brain. Is there only one brain in your brain?" A crisp voice rang out behind Ye Nanxiao.
"?"
anyone?
Ye Nanxiao turned his head and saw a silver-haired girl with purple eyes floating behind him on his left. Her long silver hair was draped behind her, reaching down to her ankles. Not only was her hair smooth, but it also had a texture like silver crystal.
The girl's beauty was unparalleled. In Ye Nanxiao's mind, no words could describe such beauty; she was like a stunning beauty who had stepped out of a timeless painting.
Such an exceptionally beautiful girl showed a look of disdain on her face, while her clear, bright purple eyes held an undisguised smile.
The girl, with her bare, glistening little feet, floated in the air, circling around Ye Nanxiao.
"You don't look much different, except for your hair. It's still silver-white with a few white streaks. You haven't exhausted your life force yet, have you?"
The girl suddenly moved closer to Ye Nanxiao, and Ye Nanxiao could even clearly see the girl's fine, curled eyelashes.
Silver hair and purple eyes! A girl who moves freely within the "Light of Time and Space"!
Ye Nanxiao's eyes widened immediately. He seemed to have heard somewhere that such a powerful girl could ignore the soul skills of the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord. But what was floating in front of him was not an ethereal and peerless girl, but a plump and thick thigh!
A true big shot! A powerful figure!
"Hey, does your thigh need a new accessory? Do you think I'm suitable?" Ye Nanxiao blinked and asked eagerly.
Having latched onto a powerful ally, I can develop stealthily. As long as I don't act recklessly, isn't it just around the corner that I'll be eating grilled fish at the Sea God's Temple?
The silver-haired girl chuckled, "It really is you, you sly fox! The second time we meet, you say the same things! Always trying to suck up to me!"
The girl's ethereal laughter puzzled Ye Nanxiao. When had he ever seen this dragon before?
"Ding!"
A crisp sound rang out.
Ye Nanxiao quickly looked down at the frozen flower floating around his neck.
The outermost petals of the frozen flower were covered with cracks, as if they would shatter at any moment.
"It seems that you, this flower, have also suffered considerable damage. But that makes sense; the Evil Eye Tyrant's ultimate move is quite troublesome, and I'm also finding it troublesome." The silver-haired girl looked at the frozen flower on Ye Nanxiao's neck with great interest.
"Xiao'er! Something's wrong with this woman!" Xue Di exclaimed, about to reveal herself.
"No, don't come out, Xue'er. This dragon seems very interested in me." Ye Nanxiao stopped Xue Di from coming out.
Ye Nanxiao was 80% certain that the silver-haired girl in front of him was the mastermind behind the Star Dou Great Forest, the sovereign to whom Di Tian bowed in submission, the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena!
Although he didn't know why Gu Yuena was here or why she told him it was their second meeting, given the current situation, it was highly likely that Gu Yuena was here to help him.
"Do you have a way to beat up that tentacle monster?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
"Cthulhu mythos, right? Of course I can. I could hold that tentacle monster down with one hand," Gu Yuena said with a smile.
"But you haven't fulfilled the promise you owe me! Why should I help you?"
Gu Yuena floated in front of Ye Nanxiao, looking down at him with a playful smile on her face.
Ye Nanxiao was startled, not by Gu Yuena's reply that she wouldn't help him, but by Gu Yuena's phrase "Cthulhu mythos".
These are words from his Blue Star; there are no Kreece mythologies in this world!
"You really know me?" Ye Nanxiao asked in surprise.
He had no recollection of when he had ever met Gu Yuena, even though he had planned to meet her.
However, with Ye Nanxiao's current cultivation level, even with the protection of the Frozen Flower and the Snow Emperor, he still cannot break through the Di Tian barrier, and he doesn't have anything or any plans that could attract Gu Yuena's attention.
"Guess?" Gu Yuena blinked and smiled.
Ye Nanxiao's face darkened, and he vowed to beat up every riddle-solving person he saw from now on!
"Ding ding ding!"
Before Ye Nanxiao's wide eyes, two petals of the Frozen Flower shattered.
The power of "Light of Time and Space" ultimately damaged part of the Frozen Flower.
The surrounding space shattered completely, revealing spatial turbulence and nebula-like light.
"That's a time cloud, so that's how it is." Gu Yuena murmured, a silver light enveloping her delicate body, isolating her from the spatial turbulence and the influence of the time cloud.
The two broken petals turned into starlight and fell into Ye Nanxiao's body, where they were swallowed whole by the big fox.
The "light of time and space" dissipated, leaving behind a huge and smooth crater.
The emerald green waves emanating from Brigitte plunged into the deep pit in an instant, but Ye Nanxiao was nowhere to be seen.
"Little fox!" Brigitte cried out in despair, kneeling on the ground, two lines of clear tears falling, the crystal teardrops dripping onto the scorched earth.
Di Tian's face was extremely gloomy. He never expected that the Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign would be able to infiltrate the Star Dou Great Forest and launch a sneak attack right under his nose!
"If it weren't for the auspicious beast, this attack might have resulted in the same fate as the battle back then!"
Di Tian turned to look at the heartbroken Bi Ji and asked, "Bi Ji, are you alright?"
The three-eyed golden lion ran to Brigitte's side, and a beam of light descended from its third eye on its forehead, enveloping Brigitte and checking whether she had been harmed by the "Light of Time and Space".
Brigitte stared blankly at the deep pit, Ye Nanxiao's image constantly flashing through her mind.
"Since I'm just passing by, I'll help you out!" the somewhat arrogant fox said.
Yes, you helped me, but you didn't give me a chance to repay you.
A terrifying killing intent flashed in the three eyes of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. Thunderclouds covered the sky above the stars, with thick lightning snakes weaving through them, as if it were an apocalyptic catastrophe.
"Take Biji back first. I will personally seek retribution from the Evil Eye Tyrant!" Di Tian took a deep breath, swung his right dragon claw, tore open a spatial rift, ignored the spatial turbulence within, and walked in.
A ferocious phantom of a black dragon with golden eyes appeared in the sky above the Star Dou Great Forest, letting out a terrifying dragon roar towards the Demon Forest.
The three-eyed golden lion turned its head and glanced at the deep pit. It sensed an extremely hidden power, which seemed to be the energy fluctuation of space.
Without much thought, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion led Bi Ji toward the Lake of Life.
After all the soul beasts left, Gu Yuena's figure reappeared in the deep pit. Beside her, a silver ball of light floated, in which Ye Nanxiao, bleeding from all seven orifices, lay quietly.
The frozen flower around his neck, missing five petals, lay quietly on Ye Nanxiao's chest, radiating a soft glow and continuously repairing his injuries.
"So it was this flower that brought us together." Gu Yuena's gaze fell on the frozen flower.
As the "Light of Time and Space" dissipated, Gu Yuena saw Ye Nanxiao being struck by the impact, his soul seemingly leaving his body. He was then pulled back into his body by a beam of light from the Frozen Flower, but a portion of his soul was swept into the cloud of time, accompanied by three ice flower petals.
The time cloud is connected to the river of time.
"If this is what caused you to fall into the cycle of time, then perhaps it makes sense. The nine-tailed fox I met back then was you." Gu Yuena waved her hand, swept Ye Nanxiao up, and disappeared from the spot.
"Hey, hey, this isn't very nice of you! It's against the rules of the Goddess of Love!" The Nine-Colored Goddess crossed her arms and looked at the Ice God with a wary expression.
She saw it firsthand: the Ice God deliberately sent three petals, carrying a portion of Ye Nanxiao's soul, into the Time Cloud.
The Ice God leaned leisurely on his throne and replied, "Where was it against the rules? It was merely attacked fatally, and my flower activated its protective mechanism. But it wasn't even fully protected, and the little guy's soul fragment fell into the time cloud. I'm quite heartbroken!"
"You!" The Nine-Colored Goddess was speechless for a moment. The Ice God was right; she had simply failed to protect her successor.
"The mission is complete. So, what about the reward?" The Ice Goddess turned to look at the Nine-Colored Goddess, her body surging with frost. It seemed that if the Nine-Colored Goddess's answer was not satisfactory, she would lose control of the frost around her.
The Nine-Colored Goddess glared fiercely at the Ice God and said, "His mission is complete. How do you want to give him his reward?"
"Oh dear, this is your decision, what can I say? You agree, right, God of Food!" The Ice God flicked out an ice spike with his finger.
The God of Cookery dodged the ice spikes with a grim expression, remaining silent. He had just arrived and was unaware of what had happened, but he certainly didn't want to see Yuan Haisan's unpleasant expression again.
"I understand." The Nine-Colored Goddess clapped her hands, and a seven-colored ray of light flew out from the Valley of Love and Destiny, breaking through space and landing on Ye Nanxiao's body.
"That's good." The Ice God nodded, and his figure vanished.
"Little fellow, I hope you can reclaim your soul fragments with your own abilities; that would be a great opportunity!" the Ice God whispered.
She had a premonition that if Ye Nanxiao's current predicament could be resolved, it would be an extraordinary opportunity.
It was this premonition that led the Ice God not to pull back a part of Ye Nanxiao's soul, but instead to let the three ice flower petals follow him.
If they intervene, they might not only fail to save Ye Nanxiao, but also give Yuan Haisan an opportunity to cause trouble.
