Chapter 4326: Heart-Eroding Demon!

Ling Feng took a deep breath, looked at Empress Qingluo, and said slowly: "If you want to find the correct time point, it will be much easier to use yourself as the coordinate position. This is why I used to..."

Ling Feng coughed dryly and did not continue.

Empress Qingluo was thoughtful and naturally understood Ling Feng's intention in an instant.

Use its own existence as the coordinate of time.

And at the node before the Black Stone Trial started, neither Ling Feng nor Qing Suo existed in that plane of time and space.

Therefore, you must use yourself as the coordinate to complete this time and space journey.

It seems that if you want to use the Source of Time again, you need to fuse with Ling Feng's soul again.

She bit her silver teeth and nodded slightly without much hesitation, "Come on!"

They didn't have much time to lose.

After getting the consent of Empress Qingluo, Ling Feng activated the Source of Time again and opened the river of time.

However, before Ling Feng's soul could merge with Empress Qingluo and find the right time, a feeling of weakness came over him, and Ling Feng suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Ling Feng! (Master Ling)"

Empress Qingluo and Fairy Qingsuo quickly walked to Ling Feng and supported him.

"How is this going?"

Ling Feng shook his head and sighed: "It seems that I was too reluctant before."

Yes, I experienced a big battle with Uncle Ling, and then a fierce battle with the elders of the Dark Sect of the Xuntian Thunder Clan.

Even the wind clan battle skeleton had exhausted its energy and turned back into a ball of liquid metal which was taken back into the Five Elements Heavenly Palace by Ling Feng.

After all, Ling Feng is a body of flesh and blood, and he squeezes his own potential over and over again, breaking through his own limits again and again.

After holding on until this moment, I finally couldn't hold on any longer.

"Opening the source of time requires a lot of spiritual power. It seems that in a short period of time, I can no longer forcefully open the river of time."

Ling Feng smiled bitterly and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "At least, I'm afraid I need to adjust my breathing for about ten days."

"Ten days..."

Empress Qingluo sighed softly, "That's fine, you should cultivate yourself well and don't be in a hurry."

"Yes, Mr. Ling!"

Fairy Qingsuo also hurriedly stepped forward and echoed: "If you fall, we will be trapped in the ancient era and will never be able to go back."

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Don't worry, since I can bring you here, I will naturally bring you back safely! However, I seem to be too tired now..."

Before he finished speaking, Ling Feng completely passed out.

His spirit and body had reached their final limit, and the previous attack to kill the frost trolls did not consume too much mana, but it still drained all of his last bit of strength.

It is not easy to persist until this moment.

Watching Ling Feng pass out, Empress Qingluo helped Ling Feng sit down against a huge cedar tree.

After a while, her eyes suddenly looked in the direction of Yuantianbe, and her brows couldn't help but frown slightly.

"In total, it should be the year when Xu Zun was thirteen years old. This year, a major event seemed to have happened in the Yuantian Department..."

A trace of uneasiness flashed in her eyes, and after hesitating for a long time, she finally clenched her fists, as if she had made some kind of decision, and said in a deep voice: "Qing Suo, take good care of Ling Feng here, I have something else to do. Need to deal with it.”

"ah?"

Fairy Qingsuo was slightly stunned. Although she and Qingluan were both the right-hand men of Empress Qingluo, the biggest difference was that Qingluan would only strictly carry out the orders of the empress, but Fairy Qingsuo was an assistant trained by the empress. Even in To a large extent, most of the affairs within the clan have long been handed over to Fairy Qingsuo.

With her understanding of the empress and her delicate thoughts, she could naturally see some clues.

After pondering for a moment, Fairy Qingsuo gritted her teeth and said: "Your Majesty, if there is anything you need, let's discuss it together after Mr. Ling wakes up."

"It's not necessary."

Empress Qingluo shook her head, "This is just my own private matter!"

After that, he turned around and left.

"Your Majesty the Empress!"

Fairy Qingsuo quickly stopped Empress Qingluo, "The past cannot be changed, and acting against nature will only bring greater misfortune! Please think twice!"

At this moment, Qing Luo suddenly turned around and stared at Fairy Qing Suo coldly, "Qing Suo, it seems that I am really spoiled by you! I don't need you to teach me how to do things!"

Fairy Qingsuo knelt down with a plop, her eyes instantly turned red, "Because of this, precisely because I have long regarded you as my relative, even as my mother, I don't want to see you stuck in the quagmire!" "

Empress Qingluo's expression relaxed a little. She walked slowly to Qing Suo's side, gently caressed Qing Suo's cheek, shook her head, and sighed softly: "Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion."

"Your Majesty the Empress..."

Qing Suo wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the empress, "That's enough, don't say any more! Take care of him and wait here for me to come back!"

As soon as the words fell, they turned into a ball of blue light and disappeared into the sky.

Fairy Qingsuo looked at the disappearing figure of the empress, tears falling from the corners of her eyes.

She gritted her teeth and looked at Ling Feng. It seemed that only Ling Feng could persuade Her Majesty the Empress.

However, with Ling Feng's current situation, he didn't know when he would wake up.

…

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

Within the source Tianbu village.

A half-grown boy, with a team of double swords stuck at his waist, was counting the people in the team.

The members of the team are basically teenagers or even children of similar age to him.

As for the adult men, they have basically gone to fight against the demons outside the blockade, and basically only women and children are left in the villages.

As for the old man...

It is a pity that in this era, few people can live to old age.

As soon as a man reaches adulthood, he has to go outside the blockade and face an almost endless war until the moment of death.

"Hao Cang, are you ready?"

At this moment, a hearty voice came from behind. Hao Cang looked back and hurried forward happily, "Boss, everything is ready!"

The person who came was none other than Ling Yuan, who had rescued Sihuo in Bingfeng Ridge a few days ago, and was also the future ancestor of Heavenly Dao, Ling Taixu.

Ling Yuan looked at the energy of the team members, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a grin: "It's not very safe in the mountains recently. There are some wandering demons who actually bypassed the blockade and entered the Icewind Ridge. Inside, I’m afraid there is a loophole in the barrier set up by my father and the others.”

After a pause, Ling Yuan continued: "What I mean is that my father and the others are fighting hard against the demons outside the blockade. Please don't alarm them for such a trivial matter. If you are gone, we will be the remaining men in the tribe. Take the responsibility of protecting my mother and my brothers and sisters!”

"Um!"

Hao Cang nodded heavily, "Boss, I understand what you mean. I will immediately take this team to the north of Bingfeng Ridge to search. On the one hand, I will see if there are any other demons wandering around. On the other hand, if I find any demons in the barrier, Any bugs must be reported to the boss as soon as possible!”

"good!"

Ling Yuan patted Hao Cang's shoulder and said with a chuckle: "Among the brothers, you are the most attentive. Hao Rong and Yuan Kun are both too impatient. As for the Four Fires, before I was injured again, so in this mission, I think you can find the flaw in the barrier the fastest."

"Boss, you are looking down on others!"

At this moment, a carefree voice came, but it was a young man with red eyebrows and red hair, walking over with another team.

"Hao Cang is careful? I think he just has a lot of evil in his belly. Boss, you think too highly of him. Otherwise, if we compare, I will definitely find the gap in the barrier before he does!"

The person who spoke was none other than the future Immortal Emperor Haorong.

The so-called incompatibility between water and fire turns out that these two people have not been able to deal with each other very well since they were young.

However, it was just a matter of dissatisfaction among the teenagers.

"Compete!"

Hao Cang frowned and felt inexplicably angry when he saw that guy Haorong.

"Hmph, you guys are competing? Isn't that just novices pecking each other! If you want me to see it, I must be faster than you all!"

While Hao Cang and Hao Rong were arguing, a girl with double buns walked over quickly, put her hands on her hips, and glared at the teenagers.

It was young Qingluo.

She is a few years younger than Hao Cang Haorong, only eight or nine years old, but she has the aura of being a woman who cannot be outdone by men.

Behind her, there was a dark-skinned and slightly thin boy.

The young man's eyes were as sharp as a falcon, with a long bow hanging on his chest and an arrow basket on his back. It seemed that he was an expert at using bows and arrows.

"Aoki, you're here too."

Ling Yuan smiled and punched Qingmu lightly on his left shoulder, while Qingmu slightly curved the corners of his mouth and managed to squeeze out a smile.

It's not that Aoki has any dissatisfaction with Ling Yuan, but that he was born with no expression and was born not to cry or make trouble. Until now, he has never shown a normal and complete smile.

However, his heart was completely different from his appearance, as hot as fire.

"Hmph, ignoring me again!"

Xiao Qingluo glared at Ling Yuan angrily, her cheeks almost bulging into a small pufferfish.

Ling Yuan then lowered his head and pinched her face with a smile, "Who made you so short! It's really hard for me to see you if I don't lower my head!"

"You! Humph!"

When Xiao Qingluo heard this, she was even more angry and stamped her feet repeatedly, "In a few years, I... I will be taller than you all!"

"Haha, I'm afraid it's a little difficult!"

Ling Yuan smiled and teased, and soon a group of half-grown teenagers started comparing their heights in front of Xiao Qingluo.

Xiao Qingluo was so angry that she kicked each of these boys hard on their feet.

At the same time, outside the village, on top of a huge cedar tree, Qingluo was hiding in it. Looking at this scene, a smile appeared on her face, but her eyes turned slightly red.

At that time, everyone was so innocent!

Why, why did it become like this later!

At the entrance of the village.

Soon, Xiao Qingluo stepped down, and a group of boys showed their teeth in an exaggerated manner, making Xiao Qingluo look proud.

Suddenly, a wooden walking stick appeared among a row of legs.

But it turned out that a young man on crutches appeared in the crowd at some unknown time.

"Four Fires?"

Xiao Qingluo raised her head, "Why are you here too?"

The other teenagers also looked over, and it turned out that Yi Ting also ran out.

"Sihuo, if you don't take a good rest in the house, why did you come out?"

Ling Yuan frowned and glared at Yi Ting, "Your legs are not healed yet. If the root cause of the disease is found, you will really become lame in the future."

"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile!"

Yi Ting slapped his chest, "You have to protect my mother and brothers and sisters. How can I still sleep peacefully in the house? Besides, Qingluo, a little girl, is going out to perform tasks. I am a grown man." , You can’t even be inferior to girls.”

"That's right, my brother! A great hero like my brother can find that hole faster than you with just one leg!"

Xiaofeng is at an age where he blindly worships everyone. Naturally, in his eyes, only his brother is the upright hero.

Little did he know that in his long life, his final goal was to kill the one in his heart, the great hero.

"All right."

Seeing Yi Ting's insistence, Ling Yuan said nothing more, "Sihuo, you are injured, so you won't be leading the team alone. You and Qingmu will team up with them. Qingmu, take good care of Sihuo."

"Um."

Qingmu nodded, and when he turned to look at Yi Ting, he found that his sister and Xiao Feng were fighting each other.

Both of them argued that their elder brothers were powerful, and neither one was convinced by the other. In the end, the two elder brothers could only pull them apart in person.

Ling Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly. It seemed a little inappropriate for him to arrange the four fires into Qingmu's team.

That’s all…

The arrangements have been made, and there is no need to waste any more time.

"Let's go. After everyone enters the mountain, the team cannot be separated anymore to avoid encountering other frost trolls. Once there is an emergency, release the sounding arrows and everyone will look after each other!"

Ling Yuan gave a final warning, and then the four teams led by Qingmu, Hao Cang, Hao Rong, and Yuan Kun went directly into the back mountain to look for possible cracks in the barrier.

As for Ling Yuan, he is coordinating the overall situation at the entrance of the village.

Once the crack is found, we can respond immediately and repair the barrier.

Among these children, only Ling Yuan has such attainments in the magic circle.

Looking at the half-grown teenagers going away, Qingluo was hiding in the canopy of the tree, but she was a little distracted and muttered to herself, "Here we come..."

Yes, in her childhood memory, that bad news and disaster was about to come!

"Ouch..."

Not long after, the sound of a wolf howling came.

Immediately afterwards, demonic wolves of some kind, glowing with blood, gathered at the entrance of the village!

"Huh?" Lingyuan, who was guarding the entrance of the village, frowned slightly, "Eight, nine, ten...huh? When did such a huge pack of wolves appear outside the village, with more than thirty wolves? ! Wait, it doesn’t look like an ordinary direwolf!”

The next moment, Ling Yuan's expression suddenly changed. There was something strange about those demon wolves...

Demonic energy?

However, the demonic energy and demonic energy are mixed together, and it seems that it is not a demon, nor is it a simple demon wolf.

"Is it a demonic wolf that has been corrupted by demonic energy?"

Ling Yuan's expression changed drastically, and he quickly asked the remaining teenagers in the village to guard the remaining gates.

At the same time, Ling Yuan hurriedly groped for his chest, preparing to release the ringing arrow, so that his other companions would immediately return to defense.

However, because the supplies in the village were really poor, the last four sounding arrows were all taken away by Aoki and the others at this moment.

"Oops, could it be that these demon wolves have found the right opportunity and are deliberately waiting for this opportunity!"

Thinking of this, Ling Yuan broke out in a cold sweat. The demon wolf's wisdom was not that high to begin with, and after being eroded by the demonic energy, it should not be so cunning.

Suddenly, Ling Yuan seemed to think of something and spat out: "Heart-eating Demon!"

The Heart-corrupting Demon is a low-level demon creature. It is not very powerful, but it has an ability that makes people avoid it.

parasitic!

Creatures parasitized by the Heart-Corrupting Demon will directly become the puppets of the Heart-Corrupting Demon, and they can also continuously increase their strength by constantly changing their hosts.

Although the demonic energy emitted by these wolf monsters is not too strong, it is still strong given the current defensive strength of the village.

I'm afraid, I can't resist it at all!

(PS: Because the following plot takes place in the past time and space, in order to avoid some deviations in understanding that may cause some readers to think that there are logical bugs, I introduce a concept of time causation here. That is, the so-called determined future, and the uncertain future. The future. The previous time and space retrospectives were all set according to this logic.

For the protagonist, using the Source of Time to go back to the past and doing anything casually is equivalent to changing the future, but because he knows nothing about the original trajectory of these things, these are the futures that cannot be changed. , he himself does not know whether he has changed his direction or not, because he may be a part of this uncertain future.

And if it is a trajectory and event that he himself knows well, such as Yi Ting surviving to the present point in time, but killing him in advance is tantamount to forcibly changing the future that has been determined. This will lead to the collapse of the overall cause and effect.

So, uncertain cause and effect is the future, and there are variables in the future that may change. The determined cause and effect is a foregone conclusion. It is the past and cannot be changed.

This is why Ling Feng was determined to change the fate of Rufeng and Mu Qianxue in the Ruins of No Fall. However, after learning about Mu Qianxue's future from Rufeng, even if this was originally the future for Ling Feng, his encounter with Rufeng turned the direction of the future into a certain trajectory, which became a certain cause and effect, so it can no longer be changed.

This statement is more subjective and idealistic, but it is just like the double-slit interference experiment in physics. Whether light is a wave or a particle may depend on your observation.

That is to say, if people are used as reference, certainty and uncertainty are different causes and effects. Different people and different reference systems will lead to different causes and effects, but if the cause and effect are not forcibly destroyed on the basis of the known, then the final result will be the same.

It may be a bit confusing, but it should not be difficult to sort it out. If it is really unclear, just read it blankly. Just treat it as me writing it randomly and you reading it randomly. ）(End of this chapter)
