Chapter 1418: Lock of Time
Hundreds of feet away to Duan Qing's right, two monks who looked unattractive were talking secretly.
"Hey, Senior Brother Yan, how long do you think it will take for this kid to find out?"
"I can't say for sure, but it's only been a day, so this kid is probably still confused, haha!"
"That's the Lock of Time jointly used by my brothers and sisters. How can this kid find it so easily?"
"I didn't expect that this kid's cultivation level has advanced very quickly. It has only been about a hundred years and he is already in the late stage of Turin phase!"
"Tch, what's the use of practicing fast? How can he escape from our grasp? Besides, compared with Junior Brother Yuwen, this kid is nothing!"
"Junior Brother Liu, don't talk so eloquently. Junior Brother Yuwen has always been obsessed with this guy. Maybe it was Junior Brother Yuwen's Tian Qingshu who warned this guy!"
"No way, this person is only at the late stage of the Talent Realm. What kind of threat can he pose to Junior Brother Yuwen!"
Senior Brother Yan frowned and pondered for a moment, then tried to say: "Junior Brother Yuwen will come to the Immortal Star with Master soon to participate in the battle of Sui Immortal, maybe...!"
Before Senior Brother Yan could finish his words, Junior Brother Liu directly interrupted him: "Absolutely impossible! In this battle of Sui Immortal, no matter it is our human race or the Monster Race, the ones who fight are at least in the Spiritualization realm, and they are the geniuses of all parties. Super person!"
"Even people like you and me who are in the middle stage of the Spiritual Realm have only barely qualified. This kid is only in the late stage of the Spiritual Stage. How can he be qualified to get involved!"
After listening to Junior Brother Liu's analysis, Senior Brother Yan also felt that his idea was too ridiculous.
"Yes, but just in case, we must deal with this kid this time!"
"Well, Junior Brother Yuwen is my Taoist disciple of the Tianji Sect, so there must be no accidents!"
…
As time went by, Duan Qing felt that things were getting more and more wrong.
He has been flying for more than a day and a half, but still has not seen the shadow of Luoyucheng.
Duan Qing furrowed his brows and made a sharp descent. He simply lowered his flight altitude and flew at low altitude over a dense forest.
While flying at high speed, the scenery below was seen rapidly regressing.
Suddenly, Duan Qing was stunned and glanced suspiciously at a stream in the dense forest below.
Why does he feel that this stream looks familiar!
Full of doubts, Duan Qing continued to fly forward.
After a while, a similar stream appeared below!
Duan Qing's heart froze, and he stopped firmly in the air, staring at the stream below!
wrong!
This stream is the same one he saw just now!
Have you been running around in circles?
In order to verify this idea, Duan Qing decisively changed direction and flew to the left.
Sure enough, not long after, Duan Qing returned to the sky above the stream again!
Duan Qing took a breath of cold air.
What a powerful method!
I didn't even notice it at all!
Duan Qing suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and glanced at the two people on the right who had been keeping a few hundred feet away from him.
Obviously, it must be these two people.
I just don’t know what methods these two people used.
Is it a space spell or some kind of maze?
After spending so much time with Nan Ying, Duan Qing admitted that he was no stranger to space methods. As for the array, he was proficient in it, but he didn't find any clues.
This means that the methods used by these two people are either neither of these two, or... the methods are too clever, beyond his ability.
Duan Qing personally prefers the former, after all, he still has basic self-confidence.
In addition to space methods and formations, what other methods can keep him spinning in place?
After thinking for a while, Duan Qing could only think of two possibilities.
First, he is currently in an illusion due to the soul-like spell.
Second, time-based magic.
Considering that he has received the power of creation, the first possibility can basically be ruled out.
Therefore, it should be the second type, which is that he has been tricked by time.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing stretched out his finger, quietly made a scratch on his sleeve, cut the sleeve, and then continued flying as if nothing had happened.
After a while, Duan Qing returned to the sky above the stream again. At the same time, he found that the tear on his sleeve had been quietly repaired as before!
really!
I'm trapped in a time loop!
Duan Qing suddenly felt shocked and angry.
Who are these two people? They have no grievances and no grudges. Why would they do such dirty tricks to him?
After thinking for a moment, Duan Qing suddenly thought of the answer.
The person who knows time magic and can't get along with me must be... someone from the Tianji Sect!
Duan Qing frowned.
What kind of grudge does this Tianji Sect person have against me, why do they have to be so unyielding?
When he left the Destiny Star a hundred years ago, he was chased by two disciples of the Tianji Sect on the Dishi Star.
Now, not long after he arrived at Fairy Star, the people from Tianji Sect came to visit him again!
Also, how did these two people find his location? He has now changed his appearance!
Duan Qing felt a little upset.
People from the Tianji Sect were notoriously difficult to deal with. Wuhuji had warned him at the beginning not to provoke people from the Tianji Sect.
But now that he didn't provoke him, others came to his door again!
Duan Qing felt cruel in his heart and flew directly towards the two people on the right.
However, Duan Qing found that no matter how he flew, the distance between him and the two people was always about a few hundred feet, and every once in a while, he would return to the sky above the stream.
Not far away, when the two Tianji Sect members saw Duan Qing's move, they couldn't help but start teasing him.
"Haha, this kid, it seems that he finally found it!"
"What if he found it? I don't think this kid can break our time lock. Let him waste his efforts."
"Well, wait until this kid is almost done, then we will take action."
"Hehe, this is the safest way."
...
Unconsciously, another half day passed.
Duan Qing's mood became heavier.
During this period, he tried various methods, flew in different directions, and even hid in the virtual space, but the final result was always only one... back to the original place!
The time that originally passed normally seemed to have become a closed loop. No matter what he did, he could only cycle infinitely in the closed loop.
This was the first time that Duan Qing encountered such a weird method.
He knew what was going on, but he just couldn't crack it.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened and night was about to fall.
Looking at the dim sky, Duan Qing suddenly had an idea in his mind.
During the time he was trapped, the sky changed as usual, and the rising and setting of the sun were not affected.
In other words, the time loop is only for him personally, or within a certain range where he is, and everything outside the range is not affected.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing glanced at the two people from the Tianji Sect who were watching a show in the distance.
These two people have always kept a distance of about 300 feet from him, so... can we assume that the effective area of the time loop should be an area of about 600 feet centered on him.
If he can leave this range, perhaps he can break the time loop of these two people!
