Traversed to the Ark of Tomorrow, but was a traveler

Chapter 35

The wonderful inspiration in his thoughts gradually receded, and Xia Lan happily "thought" the nine-character mantra that suddenly popped up in his mind, feeling very strange.

In the nine-character mantra, each character is the guardian and control of one aspect.

Firm the mind, stabilize the energy, invigorate the spirit, dominate the self, crisis sensing, telepathy, cut off obstacles, extraordinary amplification, state of mind transition.

They are differentiated but connected to each other, and can be used independently but affect the whole body.

That is to say, the premise of using a single mantra is to be proficient in using the whole set of mantras.

However, for Xia Lan, this is not a problem, because his talent can directly see through the mysteries of any spell between heaven and earth, and small fifth-order spells are naturally no problem.

So, he recited the nine-character mantra in his heart, and then a strange feeling rose up in his heart, guiding him to start the magic.

Originium energy entangles, leaps, and changes in his hands... Although it looks very clear, it just feels very mysterious.

Nine strange energies were gradually born at his fingertips, turning into a ring.

Xia Lan covered herself with this ring, and in an instant there was a strange feeling gushing out, as if the Heavenly Spirit Cover was about to fly out.

"Meditation." He muttered silently, finally ending this otherworldly feeling and returning to normal.

"I feel like I've gotten a lot stronger all of a sudden..." Xia Lan grinned and whispered, comprehending this feeling carefully.

He created a metal arrow at random and let it shoot at him, and he let it shoot.

A sense of crisis rose in his heart, and the energy in his body instantly spurted out, turning into a ripple to block the arrow.

"Tsk tsk tsk." He smacked his mouth, feeling okay.

Then I tried ice cones, rock cones, ordinary flames, lasers, and shock waves. They were all the same. Even objects that broke through the speed of sound would be instantly blocked by mantra spells.

"It's wonderful, it's wonderful, Sbarasi~" Xia Lan went crazy.

Xia was distracted by his crackling movements, her face full of dissatisfaction.

Then he went to the inner room and tried to say, "Ishar-mla."

The strange feeling came to his heart as soon as his voice fell, but it collapsed in an instant, and there was no wave at all.

"...?" Xia Lan was stunned, and subconsciously recited it again, but the result was still the same.

"So fierce!?" He couldn't help but be ecstatic again.

"No wonder they all say that fifth-order spells can turn corruption into magic, and even rival the gods." He thought.

After trying what she could think of, Xia Lan walked out of the room and sat beside Xia.

"Anything you want to eat for dinner?"

It was almost time for dinner, and I can only say that learning new abilities is really time-consuming.

Xia finally turned her head to look at him, bit her fingers, hesitated for a long time before saying, "I want to eat that kind of rice with soy sauce, bacon... vegetables!"

"Well." Xia Lan nodded and went to the kitchen to start preparations.

While he was playing with the ingredients, he tried to use some of the effects of the nine-character mantra.

For example, it can be used to increase the ability of material perception, and it is very useful to assist him in adjusting the amount of food, water, etc.

Loading the ingredients into the rice cooker, Xia Lan adjusted its distribution with magic to prevent stratification, then washed her hands and sat back on the sofa.

Xayah lay on his lap and looked up at him.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

"It's kind of boring, Dad," she replied.

Xia Lan's heart trembled, and his eyes almost turned red, but he still raised his head as if he was nothing, and asked with a little trembling: "Didn't you watch your TV?"

She shook her head happily and said, "TV is boring, Xia wants to do something else."

Xia Lan, who had slowed down a little bit, showed a sweet kindness on her face, gently rubbed her crystal dragon horns, and suggested, "Then... do you want to go shopping?"

"Well~~" She shook her head gently and replied, "Xia doesn't want to go out today."

"Then what else can be done?" He wondered what the girl was thinking, showing curiosity and doubts on his face.

"Xia wants to hear Xia Lan's previous stories. I know that Xia Lan has always had a very sad feeling about the past..."

"Huh?" He was stunned for a long time, and his movements stopped, as if he had returned to that not-so-good world in an instant.

"It's really not a good memory. Although I escaped from there, my hometown is my hometown." He had no choice but to answer.

He told her about the world he used to be, but he just changed the way of saying it and called it some hidden country in this world.

……

After dinner, Xia Lan held Xia on the balcony and looked at the gradually clearing starry sky, telling her some funny things that happened to her when she was a child, and letting her joke.

"Xia, do you have any ideas about your future?" he asked.

The laughing girl froze for a moment, then answered tentatively, "Live with Xia Lan?"

Xia Lan shook her head and seriously refused: "That's not good, I will do shameful things with my wife in the future, but I can't sleep with Xia."

Xia was stunned for a while, and it took a long time to react, her face flushed red, and she was speechless for a long time.

"So...you can't expect to be with me when I come back~ Think of something else." He laughed.

"Well..." She hesitated for a while, then tilted her head and said, "Then I want to travel around the world, okay?"

"Of course you can. At that time... Sister Nian's plan will soon be implemented, and it will be difficult for Yan Guo to restrict your freedom."

"At that time, you can meet other brothers and sisters. Although they are not familiar with each other, the source of power is the same."

"Mmmm." Xia nodded expectantly, imagining what other brothers and sisters looked like.

"But it seems that some of them have a very bad temper?" Xia Lan added worriedly.

"what?!"

……

"Any other ideas, like in the time after I'm gone?"

"Ah... um..." Xia hesitantly raised her head, looking at Xia Lan pitifully with an expression of wanting Xia Lan to let her go.

Xia Lan lightly patted the top of her head, "with a cold face" and said, "No~ OK~, you must tell me something today, I won't be used to you anymore!"

"Woo..." Xia whimpered bitterly, thinking hard.

She was born in response to Xia Lan's expectations. In fact, her personality has some flaws, so she doesn't know what to do without Xia Lan.

"Looking for Sister Nian to play?" She responded after a long time.

Xia looked at Xia Lan expectantly, but he shook his head and said, "I originally planned to hand you over to Nian, so think about it again."

"Oh……"

After a while, she said again, "Eat all the delicious food in Longmen, and what is fun in Longmen?"

"Not bad." Xia Lan gave a very high evaluation at the time: "Have ambition!"

"Then Xia Lan can let Xia go?"

"Well, I'll ask you next time, but I'll almost leave the Dragon Gate when I ask you next time." Xia Lan said simply, still choosing to face this matter.

Although in many cases it is said that long pain is worse than short pain, but he feels that when dealing with Xia, who is a child, he still needs to prepare for it in advance.

But to his surprise, Xia followed his words and asked, "Then, Xia Lan, when are you leaving?"

She chose to face the future of parting this time.

"Uh..." This stopped Xia Lan - he hadn't even figured out when to leave.

After the fusion is completed?

After studying the law?

Or simply at a certain point in time?
"I actually haven't thought about it yet..." He responded awkwardly.

Xia froze for a while, slammed her head on his chest, and complained, "Why are you so irresponsible!"

"Hehe... I don't want to part with you." Xia Lan used a classic trick to coax a little girl.

The simple Kasumi naturally reacted like that.

And Xia Lan was also thinking about the date of departure in the midst of this frolicking, and suggested: "How about the end of this month? Let's go on the 29th. Go early and return early."

Xia was shocked and panicked: "Is it that early!?"

"Yeah." He replied lightly, without saying much.

Xia came to him on August 29, so the end of this month will be her one-month birthday...

With a sigh in his heart, he thought about how to celebrate her birthday.

Unbeknownst to Xia, she is in a state of worry and confusion, and she does not know how to seek answers from Nian.

Nian (unhappy): "That guy is really cruel!"

Xia (grieved): "Don't say that to Xia Lan..."

Nian (both envious and unhappy): "I didn't know what to say if I made you and didn't spend your childhood with you."

Xia (lonely and stubborn): "Xia Lan...he's very good...he just has more important things to do!"

Nian (dumbly): "..."

Xia: "he said that after he came back, sister Nian's plan would start to be implemented. How long did it take?"

Nian (worrying): "It's about two or three years away, maybe a lot longer than you think."

Xia (shocked): "So long?!"

Xia (lonely): "He didn't tell me anything..."

Nian (Lian Ai): "He just... doesn't want you to worry. In fact, I predict that it is quite dangerous."

Xia (panicked): "Really!"

Nian (helpless): "While guiding the flame to merge with him, I found that he still has a mentality of fear and worry about something, which shows that my strength is not enough to help him reach the level of [safety]."

Xia (feared): "What should I do then... woo woo woo..."

Nian (helpless): "I can only pray, after all, you also know that he is the kind of unstoppable character."

……

The two of them lay on the balcony until night fell. Xia Lan suggested, "There's nothing to do anyway, so just go and take a bath on the bed. After I learn magic, you can watch TV."

"Yeah." Xia nodded with a sad face, got up and left.

……

The girl who had taken a shower stuck her head out and asked, "Xia Lan, can you blow my hair?"

A head of wet hair was draped over her shoulders, and the pair of crystal dragon horns looked even more watery.

Xia Lan, who was comprehending the Nine-Character Mantra, raised her head. Although she felt strange, she still replied, "Okay."

Blow your head to a girl...he thinks it's still funny because he hasn't tried it yet.

He walked into the bathroom, stood behind Xia, picked up a strand of her hair awkwardly, and blew her softly.

Xia looked at the serious Xia Lan in the mirror, her eyes fixed, and she was fascinated.

love, appreciate, admire...

Sadness, sadness, worry...

"Xia Lan... Dad..." She called out to him with a sad face.

"Huh? What's the matter, baby girl?" His hands trembled, but he responded without hesitation, using this rather unfamiliar title.

She hesitated and said, "Can you... when in danger... protect yourself a little more..."

"Can you... don't have to find that person... Xia Zhen, I'm so scared, so scared..."

Looking at Xia's eyes full of fear, he nodded slightly, but shook his head again.

"For me... that person's existence is the meaning of my existence. Although it's a bit selfish, it's true. I'm sorry, Xia."

Xia's eyes dimmed, but when she was about to speak, Xia Lan covered her mouth, and even the sound of the hair dryer stopped abruptly.

In the wet bathroom you could smell needles in an instant.

"But now, you are also the meaning of my life..." He whispered, his eyelids drooping.

The girl's eyes gradually turned red, and for the first time tears rolled in these eyes, but it was difficult to roll down.

She also inherited Xia Lan's character of being easily sentimental but unwilling to cry, but at this time she really doesn't want this character anymore...

Therefore, the tears fell, moistening Xia Lan's hand covering his mouth.

"That's it, don't say it anymore, just live a good life." Xia Lan said after a long time, let go of her hand, and continued to blow her hair for Xia.

Xia was stunned for a moment, but she could hear the choked sobbing in Xia Lan's voice.

Speechless for a while.

Xia Lan sent her off after blowing her head, while she took a hasty shower and then came to the bedroom, where she saw Xia sitting sullenly on her own bed.

"Have you made up your mind?" he asked knowingly.

"Yeah!" Xia responded vigorously, with a firm attitude.

Xia Lan shook her head helplessly, and without saying anything, she got into her own bed, feeling a little lost in the quilt for a while.

"But the little girl is really fragrant!" He scolded himself for being too serious in his heart.

Since Xia was determined to be independent, Xia Lan, the parent, was a little happy while she was lost.

While looking forward to her growth, I hope she will fail... The mood is very complicated.

He secretly watched Xia, who was watching TV for a while, before he began to comprehend the next spell.

It is called [Dispelling the Clouds and Seeing the Sun], and it is a fifth-order spell that removes magical barriers, illusions, and spiritual influences. According to Nian's explanation, it can even be so miraculous that the sinking of the soul can be directly removed.

For example... a person who has been brainwashed, twisted, and depraved for years can be influenced to awaken the true personality within him.

All in all, it has the magical power of "idealism" in a sense.

After reading the introduction, Xia Lan was still beginning to comprehend. This time, a landscape painting appeared in front of her eyes. It looked magnificent and cloudy, and it was very gorgeous.

He watched it for tens of seconds, but nothing happened, which made him feel strange - it was clear that the Nine Character Mantra was directly understood and learned.

Looking at the magnificent and majestic landscape map, Xia Lan scratched his head and said, "Do you have to decrypt it or something?"

"Pull the clouds to see the sun...Pull the clouds to see the sun...what would that be?" He muttered the name of the spell in his heart, and suddenly "raised his head", and the scene in front of him swayed for a moment.

As if he had fallen into a dream, he was already in this mountain.

The clouds blocked the sun and the mountains and rivers in the distance, and the whole world fell into a haze.

A strange touch rose in his heart, and Xia Lan, who was fascinated by the dream, followed the guidance of instinct, raised his hand, and gently moved the sky.

——In an instant, it disappeared!
Everything is so clear and there are no more jams!

The thoughts return to lightning, and the far and near scenes are completely reflected in the eyes!
Xia Lan was able to understand in this spectacle, and the so-called "Pull the Clouds and See the Sun" was already clear to her heart.

As this thought arises in him, the landscape painting quietly drifts away, the world in front of him returns to the browsing picture of crystals, and the perception of the body also returns.

"It's amazing..." He still couldn't help recalling the experience just now. Without the guidance of instinct, it would be difficult for him to raise his hand to clear the cloud, let alone learn this spell.

I don't know what the failure is in the end, and he may not be defeated in the end.

"This fate...a bit of a doll." He groaned in his heart, and he basically believed that he was a complete talent.

Very ~ very ~ cattle ~ force ~
Then Xia Lan tried to use [Pull the Clouds and See the Sun] on himself to study whether he was in some kind of hallucination. After all, he always felt that there was a mastermind behind him...

Strange magical powers swirled around him and took effect the instant it was done.

Like a thunderous explosion, a few words that had been covered up were suddenly reawakened in his heart.

When he just crossed over, he once said: "What will I meet this time?"

He had seen many, many pictures during the time travel. It seemed to be something that had happened on this land. Among them, there was something from the first perspective, which shocked him very much.

And apart from the first point of view, he actually saw Kelsey several times in a row!And I have talked to Kelsey several times from the first point of view, and finally agreed on something!
He said that it would be over next time...but it was so vague that he could only make a lot of invalid guesses.

I don't need to be too surprised to see Kelsey...?
And a few days ago, when the blood and soul were rioting, the information he obtained also began to resurface:
"[Ishar-mla], that's what we used to call me."

"But it doesn't belong to me anymore."

"it belongs to……"

He thought about the information that was gradually emerging, and he could only feel a chill down his spine.

He hesitated and chose to focus on the current matter - the name associated with the sea monster.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was a big problem behind it, but he couldn't figure it out because of the lack of information, and he was quite upset.

But it can only be said... it is also more important to the sea monsters, and that is related to their own bloodline.

And the blood of the wife seems to be related to this?

"Don't tell me!" Xia Lan suddenly stared, and a very possible but very bad idea popped up in her heart.

His wife is someone who has some kind of blood relationship with him, and it's not just a simple sea monster bloodline!
"*Furious foul language from a previous life*!"
