Chapter 111 Liquid of Time

From the outside, the entire storm appears black, obscuring the color of the lightning and giving a sense of destruction. However, once inside, one discovers that the truly dense lightning is actually these yellow barriers.

"Can you untie it?" Mo Fan asked seriously.

A barrier is a wall made of offensive magical energy, requiring several times its own strength to destroy.

But it also has a door and a key. Once you find the door and the key, the restriction isn't actually that scary or inaccessible.

"Sure, those ruins will give me some clues, but it will take some time," Nan Jue replied earnestly.

Everyone watched quietly, waiting for Nan Jue to break through the barrier woven with yellow lightning.

Of course, as a mage specializing in breaking through barriers, Nan Jue couldn't possibly take out a small wire and fiddle with the barbed wire like a thief.

She gently hovered her hand in front of the violent, restrictive lightning, using her heart to feel and listen to the rhythm of the restriction—how it worked, where its energy came from, whether it was cyclical or random, and if cyclical, when it was weakest.

They took turns defending against the wind and thunder, and their magical energy was not greatly depleted before Nan Jue released the restriction.

Following Nan Jue, the group's protective lightning gradually diminished. Suddenly, they vaguely felt themselves passing through a waterfall curtain. After encountering some resistance, the view ahead opened up dramatically—

A green field and a vast sea of ​​flowers appeared abruptly before everyone's eyes, like an oil painting, leaving all five of them stunned.

"Look, there's a city!" Zhao Manyan said, pointing further ahead.

At the end of the sea of ​​flowers and green space, there is indeed a small town. The colors are very bright, but it does not have an ancient feel. It is located in such a picturesque place, like a fantasy fairyland!

"How is this possible? We should have entered the eye of the storm, how could there be such a large space, looking like a paradise on earth?" Jiang Shaoxu said in disbelief. "Our eyesight is still pretty good, it seems we've found the real ancient ruins!"

Mo Fan said that he had entered this secluded city. He found it hard to believe that it had been sealed for so long. The whole city was still filled with the fragrance of special flowers and plants, and there was no sense of decay at all. The huge black storm was like a wall of time, which made this independent space in the eye of the storm stand still in the past.

"This is probably the oldest city in South America, there are still these ancient floral emblems at the entrance!" Jiang Shaoxu pointed to the sign in front of the door.

"You also know about the history of South America?" Mo Fan was a little surprised by Jiang Shaoxu's erudition.

"How could I possibly know that this flower has a history? It's called Li Fan, a very rare variety that disappeared from the South American continent about thirty years ago. When they still existed, this rare flower could be used to make wine —"

It was clear that Jiang Shaoxu cared a lot about Li Fanhua. She had already begun searching for her in this ancient city. The city wasn't very big, and it was quiet and peaceful, so there shouldn't be any danger.

Everyone started to disperse, and Zhang Chen followed the scent and walked with Mo Fan.

The entire town is very well preserved, as if it has been frozen in time and space, no longer flowing away. The streets are spotless, and the houses show no signs of age. It is as if you have stepped into a beautiful and charming foreign town. Except for the fact that there is no one there, everything is peaceful.

After crossing the wide street, a very beautiful fountain suddenly appeared at the intersection ahead, and the strange fragrance came from there.

It is beautiful because there is a beautiful and graceful female sculpture on the fountain, with her serpentine waist and delicate, smooth abdomen being particularly eye-catching.

Mo Fan placed the Condensed Evil Pearl into the spring water. Apart from being a little cold, the spring water had nothing special about it, and the Condensed Evil Pearl didn't seem to be full of energy at all. "This water—it's just ordinary water!" Mo Fan picked it up and took a sip; it had no taste at all!

-

"It seems to be inside the statue!" Zhang Chen tapped it directly, and the entire sculpture began to crumble and fall off, just like it was made of sand, revealing a crystal cup filled with a pool of very clear, shimmering liquid.

Zhang Chen picked up the cup, smelled it, and said with a strange expression, "What a peculiar aroma! Half for each of us!"

Then Zhang Chen took out the Sacred Tree and poured half of it onto it. Strangely, after the liquid landed within the Sacred Tree's area, it split into two streams, which were absorbed by the fruit that Yan Ji had transformed into and the egg that Xuan She had transformed into.

Mo Fan placed the Condensed Evil Pearl in the cup. The Condensed Evil Pearl absorbed about two-thirds of the remaining liquid before it seemed unable to absorb any more. The Azure Dragon Pendant, on the other hand, did not absorb anything and simply swam around in the cup.

Mo Fan found it very annoying, so he threw the cup into his personal space.

"Wait a minute! What's that fragrance?! It's so faint, you can barely smell it unless you look closely!" Zhang Chen said, sensing his surroundings. "There's something else good?!" Mo Fan exclaimed excitedly. "It seems to be in the sky! Should we go take a look?" Zhang Chen looked up at the sky and said, "The sky? Let's go! We've already gotten what we wanted anyway." Mo Fan spread his pure white wings and said. Then the two of them flew into the sky and started searching, but after wandering around for a long time, they found nothing and had no choice but to join them.

Once Zhao Manyan had recovered his magical powers, everyone left this small town of time.

The moment everyone stepped out of the town's protective barrier, a pair of yellow eyes suddenly opened in the hurricane-filled sky cave above the town.

Those eyes were fixed on them, or more precisely, on the sacred tree in Zhang Chen's hand. A strange energy emanated from those eyes, silently attaching itself to the sacred tree.

Then it watched them leave, and only after they had completely exited the yellow lightning barrier did it slowly close again.

They then began to return the way they came, and just as they had come, they did not encounter any danger.

As soon as they returned to Hammi City, they told Lingling about the luminous liquid, hoping that Lingling could help them figure out its uses. Lingling was indeed very efficient; Zhang Chen had only taken a hot shower and dozed off for a while when she called back.

"This is the Elixir of Time. You should thank my grandfather's library for having a record of it. It's made by stirring and refining an ancient herb. The process is extremely complicated and has been lost. Perhaps it can have some effects similar to changing time, such as accelerating the growth of certain plants or keeping women young forever—" Lingling said.
