Chapter 4754: The Black Blade
rength, you can trample any rule under your feet! That's what your brother told me!"A fierce light suddenly flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes, and he was about to strike with his palm, but just then, a loud...Jiang Yun naturally didn't hear Xue Wu Chang's words. He and Xuanyuan Xing retreated ten thousand miles to avoid this hawthorn, but they still hadn't found a way to resist it.
And Ji Kongfan's figure flickered, appearing before the shepherd boy. He raised his hand and slapped him.
Although he couldn't deal with the hawthorn, killing the shepherd boy might help Ginger Cloud and Xuen Yuan-Xing's situation.
It's a pity, with Ji Kongfan's attack, the shepherd boy was apparently prepared. He used the candied gourd in his hand to wave around himself twice very casually.
Suddenly, two rivers appeared beside him.
The water in the two rivers was also chaotic, bringing out one after another small whirlpools that covered an area of ten zhang. They forcibly stopped Ji Kongfan's figure.
These two rivers, of course, are the Rivers of Time, and within them, time itself is utterly chaotic.
If once you fall in, I'm afraid you'll never get out.
With the protection of these two rivers, the shepherd boy was basically invincible.
"Hee hee!" The shepherd boy let out a chuckle and pointed at Ji Kongfan, saying, "I'm going to catch you later and make you make candied fruit for me every day!"
Obviously, he coveted Ji Kongfan's time power and wanted to use Ji Kongfan's time power to make hawthorn.
Ji Kongfan, of course, ignored the shepherd's words and continued to think about how to solve this problem with the shepherd.
Just then, a loud roar from Jiang Yun suddenly echoed from afar.
"Ding, Cang, Hai!"
Following the sound, the hawthorn berry had arrived before Jiang Yun, just a hair's breadth from his nose.
However, at this moment the hawthorn did not continue to move forward, but fell into a state of stillness, motionless.
Gingercloud suddenly thought of the technique "Canghai Fixation" at a critical moment.
Since hawthorn contains the power of time, no matter how chaotic it is, it is ultimately time. Perhaps I can hold it all still myself.
This was also a helpless measure by Jiang Yun, who did not have much hope. Unexpectedly, it actually worked!
Ginger Cloud hesitated no longer, extending a finger and jabbing it forcefully into the hawthorn berry.
"
Bang!
"
As one finger fell, this hawthorn finally burst with a deafening boom, transforming into countless strands of air currents that spread outwards in all directions.
Where these currents passed, some temporal power still lingered, warping the space around it.
However, luckily the power of time has been weakened so much that it's basically no longer a danger.
After dealing with the hawthorn, Jiang Yun's figure flickered and he appeared before the shepherd boy.
The latter's face once again revealed a look of astonishment, staring at Jiang Yun and saying, "You can actually wield the power of time!"
Jiang Yun, however, completely ignored him. He took a deep breath and, towards the shepherd boy along with the two streams of water surrounding him, once again cast the Ding Cang Hai technique.
"Boom!"
Both rivers also came to a standstill in an instant.
Ginger Cloud took a step forward, ready to attack the shepherd boy, but the moment he moved, the boy's eyes rolled, his aged features becoming youthful. He opened his mouth and let out a long blast of air!
This breath was none other than the power of time, forcing Jiang Yun to retreat once more.
Even so, as he retreated, his clothes billowed up, brushing against the long breath the shepherd boy had exhaled, which had already vanished by this time.
The shepherd grinned at Jiang Yun, saying, “Though your mastery of temporal power isn’t as strong as his, you have more variety. It's barely enough for me to make candied haws.”
The "he" in the shepherd's words naturally refers to Ji Kongfan.
Jiang Yun's control over the power of time was indeed weaker than Ji Kongfan's.
However, even if the two of them combined their efforts, they still wouldn't be a match for this shepherd boy!
The other party's time-manipulating power is simply too overwhelming. It's impossible to even get close to them, let alone defeat them.
At this time, the twenty-nine cultivators' souls from the realm of suffering all had excited expressions on their faces.
Especially, Tai Shi Yao didn't know where she got the strength from. She opened her mouth to the shepherd boy and said: "Shepherd boy, as long as you can save me out, I will definitely repay you heavily. My Tai Shi family, will also owe you a personal favor!"
The shepherd's strength finally gave Taishi Yao hope of rescue.
To be honest, although they all knew the shepherd, just like what Jiangshan said, no one knew the shepherd's true strength.
Now, having witnessed the confrontation between Jiang Yun and the others with the shepherd boy, they finally understood the terror of the shepherd boy.
The shepherd turned his head and glanced at Tai Shi Yao, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Don't worry," he said, "I came here specifically to save you!"
In a single sentence, her words filled with yearning, Taishi Yao felt her heart soar. Her voice softened as she uttered, "As long as you can save me, anything is possible."
But you can't kill Jiang Yun, you must leave his life to me!
For Ginger Cloud, Tai Shi Yao could no longer use hate to describe her.
Therefore, she needed Ginger Cloud to be alive, needed to torture Ginger Cloud with her own hands, in order to vent the hatred in her heart.
The shepherd simply nodded and said, "No problem!"
Then, the shepherd boy turned to Jiang Yun and Ji Kongfan and said: "Alright, I'm done playing with you two. You're just too weak!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the sugar gourd in the shepherd boy's hand vanished. His empty hands formed several strange seals, then he pointed one hand at his own eyes and the other towards the two stagnant rivers surrounding him.
In that instant, the river not only resumed its flow but also emanated countless rays of multicolored light, soaring into the air and surging towards Jiang Jiangyun and Ji Kongfan.
Facing such a bizarre river of time, Jiang Yun and the other naturally wouldn't dare to confront it head-on. They both moved their bodies, retreating in two different directions.
However, as the two moved, the two rivers of time suddenly vanished.
Before the two could even search for the traces of these two rivers, their expressions suddenly changed.
Because, two rivers appeared behind them, appearing above the place they were about to retreat to.
At this moment, both of them instantly understood. This shepherd must have been able to see the future, knowing that they would choose to hide and knowing their exact location after hiding. That's why he made those two rivers of time appear in this place, waiting for them!
Their guess was right, this shepherd boy, is able to see the future.
Although he could only see a few breaths into the future, when fighting enemies, even a breath could potentially change the entire course of battle.
Now that Jiang Yun and Ji Kongfan have thought of this, they both want to stop their bodies, but their bodies are completely out of control.
Their bodies were retreating, meant to land in that exact spot, and at this moment, the distance was almost nonexistent, leaving no room for any change.
And once you fall into those two rivers of time, even if you can't die, you will definitely be unable to fight again.
As the two were about to step into the two rivers of time, two streaks of yellow spring water suddenly shot out from between Jiang Yun's eyebrows!
Long life!
The underworld did not go to encircle those two rivers, nor did it target the shepherd boy. Instead, it enveloped the bodies of Jiang Yun and Ji Kongfan separately.
Under a sudden swirl, Jiang Yun and Ji Kongfan's bodies finally escaped the two rivers they were about to enter at the last moment, returning to their previous position. They narrowly escaped disaster.
However, before the two could fully savor the joy of surviving such a harrowing ordeal, Jiang Yun's face contorted once more, his figure stiffly forcing itself aside, managing to take half a step.
Because, in the darkness before Jiang Yun, a black sword suddenly appeared!
The blade, devoid of any glimmer, materialized silently, yet it moved with astonishing speed, slashing towards Jiang Yun's neck.
This knife appeared at the perfect moment, catching everyone off guard.
Even though Jiang Yun took half a step back, dodging most of the force of the blow, he touched his throat and felt a bloody cut.
If Jiang Yun hadn't forcibly stepped back half a step, then this knife could have very well severed his throat.
In the darkness, a voice suddenly rang out: "As expected, you have some ability. A sword like that couldn't kill you!"e."Next, I will refine Heavenly Essence Pills and Moon Dream Dew, and finally, Earth-Breaking Pills and Heaven-Ascending Pills!"……After Ginger Cloud spent a whole day and night inside the snow hut, a...
