Chapter 577
The long river of time and space flows slowly.
Thousands of threads go forward, branching out into countless tributaries.
It seems to symbolize infinite possibilities for the future.
The past is gathered together and gradually shrouded in mist.
It seems to indicate that the past cannot be recalled.
But it gives people an extremely unreal feeling.
I don’t know if what is gone is really irretrievable.
Or should we say that as long as we have great supernatural power to break through the fog, we can find the original node in the long river of time and space, and even change the future.
Living beings are placed in the long river. No matter whether they are moving or not, they are actually drifting with the current and constantly moving forward.
Even in all the worlds, their positions are changing all the time.
It's like stepping out of the past and into one of the infinite possibilities of the future.
The river of time and space is chaotic.
It can be described as chaotic and disorderly.
But it's also in order here.
There are irreplaceable supreme rules.
The cycle of cause and effect, the cycle of life and death, formation, residence, destruction and emptiness lead to entropy increase.
Whether it is the universe or an individual creature, as long as it is located in the long river, it will be washed away by the passage of time.
Inescapable and equally irresistible.
Only the length of life is exchanged for time scale.
Only in this way can it truly survive in the long river of time and space.
It's like a candle burning at an accelerated rate, vividly interpreting the death of a person as if a lamp went out, and all thoughts are turned into ashes.
Therefore, compared to the majestic and vast world, there is no living being that can exist alone in the long river of time and space.
This has nothing to do with race or strength.
Only the fittest survive, natural selection.
If you can survive, live, if you can't survive, die.
Here is the greatest truth.
Therefore, temporary victory or defeat is nothing. Only living for a long time is the real victory.
As for the guy who dies in the middle, no matter how powerful he is, he will only be quickly forgotten. At most, when he mentions it by chance, he will be said to be rubbish that he does not deserve to be alive.
Or it may serve as a warning to those who come after you, giving other external demons another terrible taboo that cannot be touched.
"This young master is really generous and generous. I just wanted to ask for a drink of water, but I can still follow him back to have a meal. It is really a good thing that I dare not even think about."
The girl smiled again and said softly, "My body is Xijin. They all like to call me Xijin Fairy. I have been living in the long river of time and space. I don't know which world the young master's home is in. If we are familiar with each other, maybe we can... I can find my friends there.”
"I come from the prehistoric world, in the Zixiao Palace, and studied under Taoist Hongjun. This trip is to seek the opportunity to become a saint."
Wei Tao said casually, "As for the place where the banquet will be held, there is no need to waste time going back. I think the place is sparkling and the scenery is unique. It is suitable for watching the scenery, having a banquet, and sitting and chatting."
"What the young master said is absolutely true. After all, for creatures like us, where we eat is actually not important at all.
What really matters is whether the quality of the food is high and whether it can provide us with enough nutrients to survive. "
The girl tilted her head slightly, and took advantage of the opportunity to speak again, moving lightly with her lotus steps, as if she was approaching unintentionally.
Wei Tao didn't react and allowed her to move closer to him.
At the same time, he is still observing her every move, deeply and carefully sensing the power aura emanating from her, and seizing the time to learn how to move more freely within the long river of time and space.
With her beautiful eyes and charming smile, she slowly said words that she didn't even believe, "Since the young master said that he wanted to invite me to the banquet, what I am most concerned about is the ingredients you have prepared. I wonder if I can let you Little lady, let’s enjoy it in advance.”
"It's not that I can't trust you, it's just that my elders and I want to open our eyes so that we can have more bragging rights in the future."
"You can ask for food so confidently. Your temper is completely beyond my expectation."
Wei Tao was not angry at all, his expression and tone were as warm as the spring breeze, "Of course, I am a kind and gentle person, and I am generous and hospitable to others. Naturally, Fairy Jin Jin will fully satisfy this small request."
At this point, he glanced around and said, "Do you have a mirror on you? You can appreciate the delicious ingredients by taking it out."
"Didn't you bring it?"
Facing the increasingly cold eyes from the other side, Wei Tao still kept his expression unchanged, "It doesn't matter if you don't have a mirror. The long river of time and space is sparkling. You two can also take a look at yourself opposite each other. This is what the unprocessed ingredients look like."
"Sure enough, I shouldn't have any hopes. This will only make me feel sad again and again."
Yan Jin was silent for a long time, and sighed quietly, "Your fate is a bit unfortunate, because your life is about to end at this time."
"But you are extremely lucky, because you can become one with me immediately, allowing me to completely wrap your body, and carry your warmth with you to continue to survive in the cold river."
She lowered her eyes and her slender body disappeared without warning.
Click!
An arm as thick as several people could hug a huge tree and covered with blood-colored scales suddenly appeared from behind.
The surface of the arm was covered with ferocious spikes, and at the top were five sharp claws that spread out and pinched Wei Tao's head.
Uh-huh!
Facing the sudden grab, Wei Tao, who had been standing still for a moment, suddenly moved a distance to the side, barely avoiding the sharp attack coming from behind.
Then he turned around and looked at the ferocious figure deep in the waves.
What came into view was an ugly monster covered in scarlet blood scales and covered with ferocious spikes.
But the familiar feeling made Wei Tao certain that it was the graceful girl who called herself the Fairy Chi Jin.
"Come, let me eat you, merge your body into mine, and then let me take you to resist the passage of time."
The shrill howl came out of the monster's mouth, and was torn into pieces by the long river of time and space, and was transmitted to Wei Tao's ears in a disorganized manner.
He looked up, and there was no tension in his eyes and expression.
He just looked at the changed Chi Jin with interest, and even a gentle and kind smile appeared on his face.
Compared with the noble and holy fairy just now, this look made him feel more comfortable.
Although they are not really the same kind, they all have different physical appearances from ordinary people.
The eldest brother does not talk about the second brother, it is nothing more than the difference between who is uglier than who.
"The difference in level determines your fate. Come, my body will be your final destination."
She slowly moved her body, and a hideous smile appeared on her face again.
The scarlet scales rubbed against each other, and a thicker and thicker blood mist emanated from them, even dyeing the small waves red.
"Can eating each other like this really increase vitality and allow you to live better here?"
Wei Tao's expression was sincere, with a clear light flashing in his eyes. He slowly tidied up the white robe he was wearing, smoothing out the occasional wrinkles one by one.
She looked at Wei Tao with some doubts, wondering why he didn't run away. Was this action of tidying up his clothes to make it easier for her to eat?
In fact, it was not necessary. Not to mention a piece of clothing, even if it was a sword, a spear, a halberd, she would be happy with it.
After all, in the long river of time and space, if you don't have a strong digestive ability and the courage to eat anything, it is impossible to survive for a long time.
But then again, she has never seen such an obedient and well-behaved prey.
Before eating, he started to take care of his body very considerately. Was he afraid that he couldn't satisfy her appetite?
But the next moment, Chi Jin's eyes suddenly froze.
"In that case, I can't wait any longer."
"Then, let's start the feast now."
Wei Tao took a deep breath, and his body suddenly expanded.
A dull and heavy voice slowly sounded, like the roar of thousands of demons.
"I've never eaten a demon like you before, so today I'll try it out to see if it tastes better than other creatures."
Boom!
A huge shadow fell from above, covering Chi Jin tightly.
She raised her head expressionlessly, staring at the frightening monster in front of her, and was almost speechless for a while.
The sharp bone spurs all over the body, the dense black scales, the huge wingspan behind, the winding long tails, and the faint dark gold color under the scales, actually perfectly blended the hideous horror and the noble mystery, and reflected both at the same time, as if they were integrated from the origin.
"You..."
Before she could utter a word, she was blocked by the sudden pressure.
Chi Jin began to retreat frantically, retreating a long distance before barely avoiding the sudden grab.
At this moment, a shrill howl rang out.
It sounded hoarse and old, and it was filled with endless despair and fear.
Crack!
Crack, crack!
Accompanied by a tooth-aching chewing and swallowing, the screams stopped abruptly, and no trace could be found.
Chi Jin suddenly narrowed his eyes, staring at the monster's throat and the suddenly bulging abdomen. His throat also surged with it, and he swallowed the sweet and fishy saliva with difficulty.
"If he doesn't move, it's fine. But if he moves, it's like the sky is falling and the earth is splitting. This suffocating feeling of oppression is simply unimaginable."
"It's really hard for me to believe that he is just a prey that has just strayed into the long river of time and space and has not really adapted yet."
"But his stiff and twisted movements don't seem like those of a battle-hardened demon."
"What kind of monster is this? He bursts out his power so recklessly. Isn't he afraid of attracting the attention of the supervisor?"
Chi Jin felt her whole body tighten. She thought she could swallow the delicious blood food easily, but she didn't expect such a terrible change.
The delicious food she was salivating over turned into a hunter without any warning, and showed her ferocious and sharp claws.
This reversal came too quickly, and she couldn't even adapt to it for a while.
Chi Jin narrowed her eyes and forced herself not to think about it anymore.
The extremely violent claw just now, the kind of terrifying oppressive feeling that came spontaneously, brought her back to reality in an instant.
Reality is reality, there is no if.
Especially for the foreign demons who struggle to survive in the long river of time and space, they often walk between life and death, and face various dangers.
Perhaps she caught a large prey not long ago and lived a comfortable life in hiding for a long time, so she lost her usual calmness and sensitivity.
However, since she has already stood here.
Facing the life-and-death crisis with murderous intent.
Then she must rely on herself to resolve and eliminate it, so as to truly fight for a way to survive.
If it cannot be resolved or eliminated.
Then there is only one way to die, just like that old guy being eaten by the other party.
Boom!
Wei Tao disappeared again on the spot, using the skills he had just learned, and more importantly, the momentum brought by the full burst of his strong body, he instantly passed through the long river waves, and swung his fist and smashed down without any fancy.
Its speed was so fast that its body was washed by the long river of time and space, and countless small wounds appeared on its surface in an instant.
Its vitality suddenly accelerated, several times faster than when it was still.
Chi Jin screamed, and his arms covered with red scales and spikes rose rapidly.
The scarlet blood mist on his body exploded violently at this moment, turning into a demon with bared fangs and claws, and greeted the terrifying figure that was pressing down.
A small piece of long river light suddenly solidified.
Two hideous bodies that looked like demons stood opposite each other.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
The two of them also turned into motionless sculptures.
Boom! ! !
Until the light surged and ripples rose.
The deathly silence was broken in an instant.
"The power of annihilation, you are not an inspector, but you can control such a powerful power of annihilation!?"
Chi Jin screamed miserably and struggled desperately, trying to break free from Wei Tao's grip.
The red scales on her body kept falling off.
The sharp bone spurs disappeared and most of them were broken.
Even the forked long tail behind her was bitten into the mouth of the snake head that came from nowhere, and it was still tightening and swallowing down.
Crack!!!
Then there was a sudden crisp sound like an explosion.
Accompanied by an increasingly sharp scream, it exploded at the same time.
Wei Tao held her ankles tightly and tried to start from her legs to split this bloody body in two.
But the situation seemed a little unexpected.
He exerted force suddenly, but he couldn't really pry her apart.
"It's really a tough prey, even harder to deal with than that old guy Ji Luo."
"If I hadn't eaten those eyes, the Hongmeng purple qi and the power of annihilation would have pushed the Hongmeng Dao body upwards, and it would be hard to tell who would win the battle with her."
"Even so, she has caused me a lot of damage, plus the cutting and erosion of the time and water, I hope I can fully replenish it after eating."
Wei Tao had a thought in his mind, firmly controlled the prey in his hand, and brought it to his mouth little by little.
Since he couldn't tear it apart, he would try another way to eat it and see if it could withstand his fangs.
The next moment, he ignored Chi Jin's desperate begging and struggling, and his mouth slowly opened and expanded until it could completely accommodate it.
Crack!
Crack!
A numbing chewing sound rang out.
But even so, even though he was cut and crushed by sharp fangs, Chi Jin was not dead.
Even the main trunk of his body remained roughly intact.
"Damn ugly demon, if you want to devour me, then let's die together!"
"Food doesn't need to express its own opinions."
Wei Tao made an unclear sound, chewed hard for a few more times, then suddenly raised his neck and swallowed it like a giant python.
"Then let's die together!"
Chi Jin made a final crazy scream.
The true spirit soul that had been constantly agitated exploded without any warning at this time.
A painful look suddenly appeared on Wei Tao's face.
Above his head, a scarlet hideous phantom appeared silently, trying to completely wrap his body.
At the same time, his abdomen also bulged forward suddenly, and a shape similar to the hideous phantom could be vaguely seen.
Wei Tao gritted his teeth and swallowed the blood that surged up his throat.
He punched hard regardless.
Without any hesitation, it landed directly on his abdomen.
He smashed the bulging shape back forcefully.
But the next moment, his brows furrowed, his eyes were filled with pain and strangeness, his head turned 180 degrees, and then he looked down at his back.
The bulge that had just been smashed in actually bulged out again from there.
The large scales were torn apart, and a large amount of blood gushed out.
"It's really difficult. This is the first time I've seen food that is not at peace after being eaten and does not allow me to digest and absorb it properly."
"But I can even digest the Eye of the Supervisor, so how can I be helpless against you?"
Swish!
Silently, the status bar appeared in front of him.
A gold coin disappeared immediately, and a mysterious aura descended.
The blood network acupoints expanded and contracted wildly, inducing the power of annihilation to erase and digest food.
Time passed little by little.
The sharp howling gradually stopped, and all the abnormalities disappeared.
Wei Tao concentrated his mind, closed his eyes, and went with the flow.
Sensing the majestic energy breath injected into his body, he began to repair his body from the most subtle part.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked ahead at the faint light that seemed to be different.
What surprised Wei Tao was that in the place where there was nothing the moment before, he actually saw a small boat and a person rowing on it.
The long river of time and space flowed slowly.
The rays of light were like waves.
They kept hitting the side of the boat, but there was no danger of capsizing.
The man and the boat remained relatively still, but at the same time they were sailing rapidly in the long river.
This was what Wei Tao saw in an instant.
Then he fell silent again.
He sank into the depths of the long river of time and space, and could no longer sense the existence of the man and the boat.
It was as if the two parties appeared in the same place at different times.
Therefore, although they were in the same place, they could only pass each other.
Only by breaking the barrier of time could they meet here, instead of just a glimpse like now, and then they could no longer find any trace of each other.
However, when Wei Tao looked back at the figure floating on the boat again, he suddenly felt a little throbbing in his heart without any warning.
This feeling was like a herbivore seeing its natural enemy, and it would naturally feel fear and anxiety, and would involuntarily move away quickly.
At this moment, he suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at the front without moving.
The center of his suddenly contracted pupils reflected the figure floating on the boat again.
He, perhaps she, of course, could also be it, actually turned his head slowly and looked back in the direction of the gaze.
The two sides' eyes met and separated at once.
The next moment, the long river of time and space suddenly rippled.
The faint ripples spread along the faint marks, and became more and more obvious to the naked eye.
It was as if there was an invisible transparent silk thread, quietly connected from nowhere, and the end appeared silently in front of Wei Tao.
"It turned out to be the incomparably pure power of annihilation. Although it was only a mark left behind at some unknown time, when that figure appeared again, it could still emit such a strong and terrifying aura."
"Could it be that the one sailing in the long river of time and space is the real supervisor mentioned by Ji Luo?"
"I didn't even really touch the mark. I just got a little closer to sense it and took a few glances. How could I be discovered directly by the supervisor?"
Wei Tao's eyebrows twitched violently. Without any hesitation, he turned around and left in the opposite direction.
