Chapter 184: Entering The River Of Time
The following events played out just like Fang Yuan's previous life like Hei Lou Lan saving Ying Wu Xie from the dream realm, Feng Jiu Ge attacking Fang Yuan and the others, but in the end Fang Yuan and the rest successfully escapes.
Just like this Feng Jiu Ge pursued Fang Yuan and the others for some time until Fang Yuan uses his immortal killer move Myriad Dragon, forcing Feng Jiu Ge to retreat.
Next, just like his previous life he captured an immemorial year beast and entered the River of Time using the final tributary of the River of Time inside Western Desert.
"I am in the River of Time again." Fang Yuan sighed.
He opened his immortal aperture's entrance and let out the immemorial year monkey.
"Ook ook ook." This huge beast returned to its home, it was very excited.
Plop!
It landed in the river water and created a huge splash.
Fang Yuan also turned into an ancient year monkey, he was much smaller than the immemorial year monkey. He was floating in the air now as he was not a true year beast.
"Let's go." Fang Yuan ordered, as the immemorial year monkey started to swim.
They moved on quietly.
After two hours, the River of Time was still turbulent while darkness surrounded them.
Rumble!
Suddenly, with a loud sound, a current shot out of the raging River of Time.
The current shot out towards the left of Fang Yuan, in front of him.
"Grrrr." The immemorial year monkey growled as a hint of seriousness showed on its relaxed face.
"This is a sudden spring." Fang Yuan muttered quietly.
Just when Fang Yuan was fully focused on traveling in the river, near the tributary of the River of Time in Western Desert, three Gu Immortals arrived.
They were Feng Jiu Ge and two other rank eight Gu Immortals from Heavenly Court.
"To think this otherworldly demon is so powerful, he could actually fight Brother Feng evenly."
"With our help, no matter how talented he is, he cannot escape."
"If we work together, we should be able to kill Fang Yuan." Feng Jiu Ge nodded slightly.
"Hmm? These are dream realms!" A moment later, Feng Jiu Ge and the rest could not help but land, looking helplessly at the dream realm defensive line.
"It seems we can only wait."
"The dream realms move constantly, a gap will appear in the defense soon, we will be able to enter."
"Other than us, Lord Huang Shi is in the River of Time. He is the person most skilled with fighting in the River of Time for the last ten thousand years! Fang Yuan is not his match."
The three immortals discussed, deciding to stay and wait for an opportunity.
In the River of Time.
"Sudden spring river segment?" Lord Huang Shi looked at the river in front of him as he frowned.
"According to Lady Zi Wei, Fang Yuan is right ahead." Immediately after, Lord Huang Shi's eyes shined brightly as he flew towards the sudden spring river segment resolutely.
After a few minutes, Lord Huang Shi flew out of the sudden spring river segment.
Fairy Zi Wei's guidance was transmitted to him again.
Lord Huang Shi changed directions, raising his speed as he flew towards Fang Yuan.
A moment later, his figure paused as he looked ahead uncertainly.
"Dark web spider!" Lord Huang Shi had a grim expression as he muttered this.
"Fang Yuan wants to use this dangerous place to force me to retreat?" Lord Huang Shi had a cold expression, he snorted before flying into the huge crystal nest.
Lord Huang Shi moved very very slowly.
He carefully moved past each of the threads that had weaved into a web.
"As long as I remain careful and avoid touching any peaceful time thread, I will be able to get through this safely." Lord Huang Shi thought as a loud explosion occurred, there was incredible sound resembling the crashing of heaven and earth.
The crystal web nest shook along with the loud sound waves.
The dark web spider was alerted, its hundred and eighty compound eyes stared at Lord Huang Shi!
"Damn it!"
"It must be Fang Yuan's trap!"
"Since I am able to get here, I have my assurance, I am able to get past this dangerous area while the dark web spider is alerted!"
With a cold snort, Lord Huang Shi started to use his immortal killer move on the crystal threads.
Lord Huang Shi started to act, using his rank eight killer moves to attack the crystal threads, at an increasingly fast speed.
But his path of retreat was not smooth, there were often immortal killer moves, sound waves, frost, and flames obstructing him.
Lord Huang Shi's speed was greatly obstructed, he was eventually caught up by the spider as they fought intensely.
Bam bam bam…
After an intense battle, Lord Huang Shi broke free from the dark web spider and left its territory.
But now, he was in a more sorry state than before, not only was he covered in dust, he even suffered minor injuries.
"This damn Fang Yuan, how many traps did he set! And these traps all activate at the perfect timing, there is deep planning in this!"
He flew while he treated his injuries.
Not long after, he entered a weird river segment.
"What is going on? I can feel a strong sword path and blade path aura in this river segment?" Lord Huang Shi was surprised as suspicion flashed on his face.
He slowed down and observed, this river segment had permeating sword qi and blade light.
"Wait, don't tell me, this is…"
Lord Huang Shi frowned.
"I traveled upstream towards the past, in terms of distance, I probably went back to a hundred thousand years ago, I am at the Late Antiquity Era!"
"Late Antiquity Era, sword path, blade path…"
"I know! Western Desert's Xi Yuan, this person cultivated sword path, created sword abyss, and killed three rank eight Gu Immortals. There is another blade path demonic immortal, he is known as Dao Jiu Lang, he had overwhelming demonic might, rampaging in Western Desert, he managed to break the expulsion formation and shook the world.
These two fought before, it was an intense fight that led to great destruction."
"Fang Yuan and the rest actually came here? Are they trying to die!" Lord Huang Shi gritted his teeth, entering.
Roar!
The immemorial year monkey fought in turbulent waves, it was covered in injuries, blood was flowing as the surrounding area was dyed red.
On the immemorial year monkey, Bai Ning Bing, Fairy Miao Yin, and the rest were defending themselves.
"I finally found you all!" Lord Huang Shi's eyes shined brightly, he charged ahead without thinking!
Swish swish swish!
The River of Time had surging waves.
Mixed within were sword qi and blade light, shooting towards the Shadow Sect immortals.
Lord Huang Shi was not exempted, he was 'taken care of' by the sword qi and blade light, but his defensive methods were not weaker than Shadow Sect's immortals, he had an easier time.
Immortal killer move — Sun Moon Divine Shuttle.
Lord Huang Shi looked down as he pushed with both hands, countless arrowhead shuttles shot out like a storm, towards the Shadow Sect immortals.
"Enemy!" Bai Ning Bing shouted to alert them.
Sun moon divine shuttle was very powerful, even though Bai Ning Bing and the rest defended themselves, they were heavily suppressed by the killer move.
Roar!
This angered the immemorial year monkey, it growled as it exerted force in its lower body, its entire body left the river water as it jumped towards the sky.
Sun moon divine shuttle landed on its body and created small bleeding holes, but for this huge immemorial year monkey, that was only a light wound.
The huge monkey hands grabbed towards Lord Huang Shi while whipping up fierce winds.
Feeling this terrifying power, Lord Huang Shi's eyelids twitched, he expressed shock on his face.
"This immemorial year monkey is the real deal, it is not Fang Yuan's transformation?!"
"They actually control a rank eight battle strength like this immemorial year monkey?"
He moved rapidly, getting to an area far away in an instant.
In here, there were dense time path dao marks, he could fight with great strength.
The immemorial year monkey missed and landed back into the river, but it growled and leaped again, jumping into the sky and attacking Lord Huang Shi.
"In that case." Lord Huang Shi's battle intent became firmer.
He breathed in deeply and used another immortal killer move.
Immediately, a yellow soil rock appeared above his head. The rock moved slowly, it made the time around Lord Huang Shi move slowly too.
Next, dust and sand emerged from the rock and landed on the immemorial year monkey in a flash.
Affected by the yellow dust, the immemorial year monkey's rate of time reduced rapidly, it became slower and slower, the time it took to jump became much longer.
Lord Huang Shi saw this and let out a breath of air, feeling joyful.
But right at this moment!
Bam!
A huge wave shot towards the sky, directly towards Lord Huang Shi.
From within the pale wave of the River of Time, a strong blade light shot out with blinding light.
The blade light landed on Lord Huang Shi as his body shook, he spat out a mouthful of blood!
Lord Huang Shi was injured, the dust and sand shook as the immemorial year monkey struggled from within.
Lord Huang Shi quickly held his breath and used his immortal killer move more intensely, making the dust thicker to trap the immemorial year monkey.
Bai Ning Bing and the rest used their methods to unleash frost, flames, and sound waves on the immemorial year monkey, but they could not affect this sand and dust.
In the River of Time, time path lifeforms were greatly strengthened, Bai Ning Bing and the rest were weaker than Lord Huang Shi to begin with, due to these time path dao marks, their battle strength was even lower than usual.
At the crucial moment, Ying Wu Xie's expression turned grim, he was about to use the invincible lead soul into dream.
"Hmm?" But at this moment, Ying Wu Xie lost his target.
He could not sense the existence of Lord Huang Shi.
"Lead soul into dream needs to sense the other party to activate. Otherwise, it is useless. This Lord Huang Shi already has a way to hide from my soul path senses?"
"Oh? The defensive killer move that Lady Zi Wei gave me activated… hehe." Lord Huang Shi snickered coldly.
"Oh no!" Ying Wu Xie and the rest had a change of expression, they felt strong pressure in their hearts.
"Fang Yuan, you're still not coming out? If you wait any longer, hehe… hmm?" Lord Huang Shi was shocked.
At this moment, a huge wave from the River of Time swept towards him.
"Again?!" Lord Huang Shi was stifled.
This huge wave avoided the immemorial year monkey and came after him instead, time and again.
His luck was too horrible!
Rumble!
The huge wave hit Lord Huang Shi as he spat out blood once more, increasing the severity of his injuries.
Lord Huang Shi chose to resist the wave, to find a chance to capture the immemorial year monkey, Bai Ning Bing, and the rest.
"Right now, I have the advantage, I don't believe that Fang Yuan will continue to watch!" Lord Huang Shi made up his mind.
Swish swish swish!
Three waves swept towards Lord Huang Shi.
"What? At me again?!" Instantly, Lord Huang Shi stared with wide eyes, he wanted to scream.
"Their luck is too good? Not a single wave hit them?"
"Wait." Lord Huang Shi shook: "Is this the effect of Fang Yuan's luck path methods?"
He thought of a possibility.
"Hmph! Even so, luck path cannot change the outcome of this battle."
"Luck path is suppressed in here to begin with. It is impossible for Fang Yuan to manipulate the waves here using luck path, only supreme time path methods can do it."
"I have the territorial advantage here!"
Lord Huang Shi calmed down as he continued to suppress the immemorial year monkey, Bai Ning Bing, and the rest, forcing Fang Yuan to show up.
"Lord Huang Shi fell for it."
"This is like what sect leader predicted… let's continue attacking, don't expose any flaws."
Bai Ning Bing and the rest had grim expressions, but they were conversing secretly.
At the same time, on an island deep under the river.
The image was moving in front of Fang Yuan, it was displaying the scene of Lord Huang Shi fighting against the immemorial year monkey.
This was a stone lotus island, the one on which Spectral Soul Demon Venerable had obtained the Red Lotus true inheritance.
"Spectral Soul's will, let me lend you a hand." Fang Yuan looked at Spectral Soul's will, it was thin and had a hard time controlling the waves, thus he helped.
Immediately, a huge amount of will gushed out and entered Spectral Soul's will.
Spectral Soul's will became strengthened and growled.
At the same time, a huge wave appeared on the battlefield.
"This, this, this!" Lord Huang Shi's eyeballs were almost popping out.
The size of this huge wave was unprecedented, the blade light and sword qi inside had not shot out yet, but Lord Huang Shi also felt a strong threat to his life.
Lord Huang Shi gritted his teeth, even though this colossal wave would hit him, it would also implicate the immemorial year monkey and force out Fang Yuan.
"I will see who can last longer!" Lord Huang Shi was thinking of that, when suddenly, a small part of the wave split to allow the immemorial year monkey to pass through before it headed towards Lord Huang Shi entirely.
"What!?"
Lord Huang Shi was about to scream in anger.
How shameless could it get?!
