Re-live your life and start speedrunning

Ahead was a cold and gloomy city made up of strange buildings that stood tall and square without any visible eaves or corners.

Behind is an endless stretch of fields.

However, between the fields and the city, there is a small path, so quiet and coarse that it seems to connect two different worlds.

Master Shuangxue also fell on this road.

here it is...

"It doesn't belong to the same world as the Mountain and Sea Realm. It exists in my body, the real Yin and Yang Road."

The sound came from the end of the ridge.

Two bright red 'ghost brides' slowly walked out, one on the left and one on the right.

In the middle, Li Re stepped on the mysterious flames and walked slowly out of the dark world, holding a long sword in his hand. He looked around and grinned, "Although it is short-lived, although it only exists here."

"But then, I'm going to flip the timeline here."

"Let you return to the 'past' for a short time."

"Back to before I died!"

"Since you can't remember, I want to ask you in person what you saw when you were still alive in the past!"

Master Shuangxue's face was shocked, and he looked suddenly at Li Re in front of him.

Go back to your past?

This person... can actually do something like this! ?

Chapter 232: The Truth, The World is Dead and Opportunities

No wonder Master Frost and Snow was so surprised.

Even though she is a sword cultivator who is close to becoming an immortal in the Mountain and Sea Realm, a Qigong practitioner classified as a 'mythical system' in Paradise, and a native resident of the dungeon world who is infinitely close to the silver player level, the 'time realm' is still a realm far beyond her reach.

Her swordsmanship, which cuts off the past and future by severing the present,

What can be cut is actually just false time.

However, facing the other party's surprised eyes, Li Re looked around and smiled confidently. He thought to himself that it was just as he said, he really couldn't do it in other places, but it was different here!

This time, 'Master Frost and Snow' Lin Shuangxue entered the real ghost town and the Yin-Yang Road. This personal copy belonged to Li Re exclusively, and although according to the rules, it could only be released in full once a day - but the number was not fixed. It was just that with Li Re's current ability, he could only release it once a day.

However, after half a month of research in reality, he had already discovered that this "one time" could actually be divided and used!

If the ghost town is fully displayed, it will count as one time if it is "released" and overlaid on reality.

If the player is directly pulled into the ghost town and Yin-Yang Road, it counts as one time.

Then if you only "play out" a part of it, it can only be considered as half a time, or even less, "one third" of the time.

The most crucial message given by Paradise is "complete liberation".

This is more of a 'blue bar' than a number of times.

He had previously compressed the Yin-Yang Road and stretched it across the northern border of the central part of the Mountain and Sea Realm, which was also the case - that was considered "half time".

And now.

He pulled Master Frost and Snow into the dungeon by throwing a long sword, but he did not directly enter the ghost town or step directly into the depths of the Yin-Yang Road. This was also an incomplete display and could only be considered "half time"!

Although it's only 'half time',

But as long as you walk on the Yin-Yang Road, you will be covered by the power called "Ghost Realm", which is a gathering of hundreds of thousands of evil spirits, condensed from pure spirituality, and linked to the past thirty years.

Although what this power can do is actually very limited.

The time of retrospection is not too long. For the ghosts existing inside, it can reach a maximum of thirty years, but for the existence coming from outside the ghost town, it can only reach a short period of several months.

And once you leave here, it will become invalid immediately.

But here, at this moment, it is enough!

So the next second, Lin Shuangxue was surprised to find that Li Re raised the long sword transformed from the girl's guardian spirit in his hand, and the two "ghost brides" standing beside him also slowly raised their hands - he seemed to anchor the time, and also seemed to reverse the clock.

The grass and trees on both sides of the field swayed as if they were "moving backwards"——

Time really is flowing backwards!

Lin Shuangxue subconsciously wanted to raise the Three Light Sword in her hand - and then she really raised the 'sword' in her hand!

It's not driven by the evil spirit's instinct.

Rather, it is the actions of the body under the control of a living person's consciousness.

She really... came back to life! ?

No, it’s not that he came back to life—but his state briefly returned to that of when he was alive!

"It's... incredible."

Master Shuangxue opened her mouth, her face full of disbelief as she felt the vitality in her body suddenly return!

To some extent, this power of time reversal is similar to that of "Guixu".

It’s just not as powerful as Guixu!

Li Re put down the long sword in his hand. He looked at the expression on Lin Shuangxue's face and knew that he had succeeded - not surprisingly.

He said, "We don't have much time, and Shiyu is still waiting for us outside, so let's get straight to the point!"

"Master Shuangxue should have remembered it now, right?"

"nature."

Lin Shuang put down the Three Lights Sword in his hand, his snow-white hair fluttering and his black robe fluttering as he stood on the Yin-Yang road between the ridges of the fields. The light in his light golden eyes dimmed slightly.

She responded to Li Re's words: "But...are you sure you want to know?"

"Although the power you possess is beyond my imagination, the mysterious fire, fog, road and city are undoubtedly powerful things, and your courage and bravery are even more admirable - but what I saw is still not something you can bear and change!"

The Tianjian Sect's real man gave sincere advice.

However, her admonition only aroused Li Re's interest! He thought that it would be better if he didn't have to bear the consequences. Wasn't it for this reason that he pulled her in?

"That's fine."

When Master Shuangxue saw Li Re's expression, she knew what he was thinking. She exhaled again and said, "This matter is not simple, but it is not complicated either."

"In the final analysis, it's just because I saw——"

"The future of 'the world is dead'!"

The human world is dead——!?

Li Re's eyes paused slightly: "Is it because of the influence of the barbarians?"

"That's part of the reason, but more of it is actually because of the 'calamity energy'." Frost and Snow Master said calmly: "Everyone only knows that this barbarian species came from the abyss rift on the edge of the northern border, but few people know..."

"The calamity energy actually comes from the abyss!"

"Thousands of years ago, there was actually no such thing as a killing calamity in the Mountain and Sea Realm. This killing calamity originated from a turmoil that swept across all realms. During that turmoil, the Skywalker who was in charge of the 'Order of Heaven' disappeared. Since then, the way of heaven has been flawed, and it needs to be compensated by a calamity. So an abyss opened up in the north of the Central Realm, and monsters invaded the human world. The calamity permeated the lives of all realms, and it needed to be repaid with killing!"

"So, in fact, the barbarians are also a kind of killing disaster?" Li Re raised his eyes slightly and said: "The disaster energy is an invisible disaster, and the barbarians are a visible disaster, but they all come from the abyss. Why does it sound like some kind of existence living under the abyss is preying on the creatures of various realms through smell and 'tentacles'?"

"This question..." Lin Shuangxue was slightly stunned when she heard it: "I haven't thought about it."

"But it is indeed possible. After all, the more the barbarians invade the human world, the more disaster energy there will be, and the more disaster energy there will be, the more barbarians there will be—" She frowned slightly, her eyes darkened, and then shook her head: "But now is not the time."

"I only know that before I died, I saw a scene where the world was dead. I saw that if I was also parasitized by the barbarians and the power in my body was stolen, then the Tianshan Mountain, the source of all the mountains and rivers in the northern border and the ancestor of the earth veins, would be completely lost. No one would be able to protect it. At that time, it would also rush through Wushan Pass, step into the Central Plains, and then sweep across the entire center."

“If you were not infected by the parasite, but died and turned into a ghost, then it would prevent Tianshan from being completely ‘eroded’?” Li Re’s eyes moved slightly and he understood instantly!

"good."

Lin Shuangxue nodded: "Although the barbarian bone tree seems to have stood on the top of Tianshan Mountain, in fact, under the instinct of my transformation into a fierce ghost, it can only stand up such a bone tree!"

There are only wild bone trees.

But I didn't see the wild buds fall to the ground and grow into bone trees.

This is undoubtedly the work of this 'Sword-wielding Elder'!

However...

"No, that's not right!"

Li Re chewed over the words of the person in front of him and suddenly shook his head. He suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the Sword Immortal standing on the Yin-Yang Road in front of him as if he had caught something.

"What's wrong?" Master Shuangxue was stunned.

"You're wrong." Li Re calmed down and responded with his eyes brightening. His voice slightly raised as he continued, "Have you ever considered that what you saw before you died was actually... not the 'future'?"

Not the future?

Lin Shuangxue was stunned.

Li Re didn't wait for her response and continued, "Admittedly, as a mythology-type Qi-refining practitioner, you may have the ability to predict the future for a short period of time - but I believe that as a sword immortal, you are more focused on cutting off the 'present', and your ability to predict the future is definitely not as good as your perception of the present!"

"So you guessed that what I saw was not the 'future'?" Lin Shuangxue frowned even deeper!

“Of course it can’t be just because of this!” Li Re waved his hand: “What you just said actually reminded me - you said, ‘The more the barbarians invade the human world, the more calamity there will be, and the more calamity there will be, the more barbarians there will be’. From this, it can be inferred that calamity and barbarians should complement each other, but I also heard from ‘Master Gu Jian’ before -”

"He said that long before the calamity energy spread across the northern border, the barbarians had quietly eroded this land in the northern part of the Central Realm from underground! Even before Shiyu and I returned to the Central Realm, the calamity energy on this land was still not sufficient!"

"If that's the case, where did the calamity energy brought by the many barbarians that appeared a long time ago go?"

"Besides, why did the North fall so quickly? The only entrance and exit between the Central Plains and the North, the 'Wushan Pass' you mentioned, was still closed so promptly!?"

"So you mean to say that these barbarians that eroded from underground didn't come directly from the abyss? They came from the Central Plains? The calamity they brought with them has already filled the Central Plains?" Master Shuangxue finally understood what Li Re was talking about. She was stunned and her brows were a little solemn. "The reason why Wushan Pass was blocked so quickly was not to prevent people from the northern border from entering the Central Plains - but to prevent people from the Central Plains from entering the northern border."

"The scene of 'the world is dead' that I saw before I died was not the future, but the present - it can even be said to be the past that has become an established reality!" She murmured in a low voice, as if she finally understood everything.

So, why did she commit suicide so resolutely?

Thinking of this, Lin Shuangxue became even more expressionless!

Chapter 233 You helped me before, now I help you

"So, you left my master 'inside'?"

In the mountains and seas, in the central northern border, the spiritual fire on the Tianshan Mountain was still jumping and burning. The "Little Sword Fairy" Cheng Shiyu, who had recovered a little, stood still, staring with her beautiful almond eyes and looking at Li Re with surprise, who disappeared for a while and reappeared in front of her.

"She asked for it herself."

Li Re, who walked out of the 'Yin Yang Road', also stopped and nodded at the same time, saying so without blushing or beating his heart. What he said was indeed the truth. After the white-haired female swordsman said her guess which was most likely correct, Li Re could naturally perceive the other party's psychology obviously.

Lin Shuangxue was completely stunned at that time. Although Li Re later told her that her suicide was not in vain and at least the Northern Territory was not completely lost, the female swordsman had a blank expression on her face but was obviously holding a grudge in her heart.

It is actually easy to understand why she stays in there and doesn't want to come out.

In addition to feeling ashamed for her impulse choice to commit suicide, she could only exist as a living person by staying on the 'Yin Yang Road'. Once she left, she would immediately turn into a 'ghost', and even though she was conscious, she would be driven by the murderous instinct!

Of course, Li Re would not tell these things.

In order to allow 'Master Frost and Snow' to retain some dignity in front of his disciples... Although from Shiyu's own narration, she had long seen through her master's stubborn and impulsive character despite having lived for a long time.

Li Re would not even say that Lin Shuangxue's idea of ​​staying on Yin Yang Road was actually persuaded by him... He hinted that she would be laughed at by her own disciples if she walked out like this, and hinted that she would face "social death" if she left Yin Yang Road.

He thought that this 'real man' was an expert in swordsmanship, and if he could get Xing Gongyue, who was in a closed time loop, to learn the Three Lights Sword, he might be able to use it to 'kill' him in the future!

He just wants to have some sword skills!

Then this 'Master Frost and Snow' really believed it!

Besides these, they also talked about a lot of...

"Master not only wants to stay in there, but also wants to teach your guardian spirit the swordsmanship of the Heavenly Sword Sect? He has even started teaching on the spot now? You also talked about the current status of the various worlds of mountains and seas... Wait a minute, this is too much information, let me sort it out first!"

The crackling of the spiritual fire reflected on Cheng Shiyu's delicate brows and she wrinkled them slightly. She shook her head and listened to Li Re's story. It was indeed a little difficult to understand for a moment. Not to mention that the master had to stay "inside" to move as a living person and that the master wanted to teach Xinggong Yue swordsmanship, which was understandable, she had to admit that the guardian spirit of the girl following Li Re had a strong talent for swordsmanship.

however.

"You mean to say that the barbarians that you told my master about invading the underground of the North Territory actually came from the Central Plains? In fact, it was not the North Territory that was truly succumbed to the monsters and the killing calamity, but the Central Plains of the Central Realm. On the contrary, the North Territory was still able to survive because of the master who turned into a fierce ghost."

"And next, you are planning to leave the North and go to the Central Plains to find out what's going on - to see how the barbarians bypassed the North and entered the Central Plains. Is that what you mean?"

The little sword fairy, who had sorted out her thoughts a little, simply repeated the story, and couldn't help but mutter, "What a mess... This killing calamity for me has been too bumpy, hasn't it?"
