Inside The Black Mist

Chapter 478: Time hourglass

Views:

"Disappeared?"

Tianyang looked around. The rooftop was still the same rooftop, but Gu Yun had disappeared.

Just after the original matter was completely decomposed, the church priest disappeared into the air like a bubble, as if he was just an illusion.

In this way, the time gap should be resolved, and all people in the gap will return to their own time points.

Recalling the battle just now, Tianyang secretly felt lucky.

The origin devoured the 'world', and for some unknown reason, it activated the remaining evil consciousness in the 'world', causing the origin to come alive and attack him and Gu Yun.

However, Origin was not a real life after all, and the consciousness of the evil spirit remaining in the "world" was very weak. Therefore, Origin's combat consciousness was so superficial. It misjudged the power of the thunderstorm and arrogantly tried to swallow the thunderstorm with its body, but was blown to pieces instead.

This exposed the "world", which allowed Tianyang to destroy it with a "Star Dome Splitting Attack".

With Yuandian's strange ability to control the flow of time, if combined with first-class combat awareness, the fate of him and Gu Yun would be hard to predict.

Exhale gently.

Suddenly, Tianyang's heart moved, and he suddenly discovered that on the scar of the rooftop torn by the "Star Dome Rift", there was something quietly placed.

The boy walked over and suddenly found that it was a small hourglass.

It is only about five centimeters high, with two glass balls filled with sand, one black and one white.

The 'sand' in the hourglass appears black, yet it glimmers like stars.

When he picked it up, Tianyang had more information in his mind.

Time Hourglass: When you throw it out, if the bottom is "night", time will go back 3 minutes. If the bottom is "day", time will stop for 3 minutes. The time effect range is limited, and after the effect ends, the user will experience "time backlash".

Turn back time!

Pause time!

Tianyang's mind buzzed. This item could actually affect time. Wasn't this a smaller version of the time gap

However, it only lasts for 3 minutes, and the effects are random.

Furthermore, after the effect ends, there will be a "backlash of time" when using it.

But if the backlash lasts only 3 minutes, the impact shouldn't be that big...

This "time hourglass" is obviously an item left over after the origin was decomposed. I didn't expect that after destroying the origin, I could also get the remains.

The Reverse Realm is really full of secrets.

Tianyang put away the "Time Hourglass", although the effect time is only 3 minutes, and it is not a direct attack or defense ability. But if used well, it can be a turnaround.

At this moment, his communicator rang and a communication request flashed on the screen.

Tianyang approved the request, and He Wenchi's voice rang out in the communicator: "Tianyang, have you destroyed the origin?"

Tian Yang exclaimed: "Priest, how do you know that the origin has disappeared?"

He Wenchi laughed and said, "Since Wei Siji and the others disappeared, I think it must be because the origin has been destroyed and the time gap has closed, so Wei Siji and the others have returned to their own time node."

"The strange thing is, after they disappeared, I had some extra 'memories'. In these memories, Priest Wei and his companions had escaped danger three years ago and are now in the fortress."

Time is a strange thing.

Tian Yang thought for a moment before saying, "It turns out that the origin has been destroyed. No wonder the black people who were fighting with me one second ago suddenly disappeared the next second."

He Wenchi was surprised: "Why, it wasn't you who destroyed the origin?"

Tian Yang responded calmly: "Unfortunately, it's not me."

Of course he couldn't admit it.

You have to know that Gu Yun is not dead. If Tian Yang admits that he destroyed the origin, it would be tantamount to equating him with the "God of Death".

Therefore, Tianyang would never admit this matter even if he was beaten to death.

He Wenchi didn't think much about this: "Anyway, the gap has been closed. If we leave now, there shouldn't be any 'time backlash'."

"Come back, I'll contact the others, I hope they're okay."

After the call ended, Tianyang patted his head gently. He Wenchi reminded him that Nuo Jin was still left in Piaoliu Town.

Snapped.

Tianyang snapped his fingers, the air twisted slightly, and then the 'Gate of the Crack' opened. Tianyang put away his mask, took off his cloak, and stepped in.

Inside the door was the room that Tianyang used as a 'collection room'. Outside the window was the dim and pale sunlight of the small town. Nuo Jin was sitting behind a tattered sofa.

Tianyang coughed dryly: "Nuo Jin..."

Hearing Tianyang's voice, the woman behind the sofa was suddenly shocked and turned around abruptly.

In less than a day, for some unknown reason, Nuo Jin became unkempt, and his armor was stained with stains of various sizes.

The woman looked malnourished and her face was so small that Tianyang almost didn't recognize her.

"Owner!"

Nuo Jin screamed, rushed over, and hugged Tianyang's thigh without saying anything: "Master, take me away! Don't leave me here again. It's been three years, three whole years!"

"I thought you would never come back."

"As long as you take me away, I can do anything for you. My body and soul belong to you. I will be your most loyal servant. I can do anything for you, anything!"

Her spirit was almost collapsed, and she held Tianyang's hands so tightly, as if she was afraid of being abandoned by Tianyang.

Tianyang was also confused.

Calculating the time, he only stayed in the building for about a day. How come it became three years when he came to Nuo Jin

Tianyang suddenly had an idea.

Could it be that when he and Nuo Jin entered the first floor of the building, they had already stepped into the time node three years ago. At that node, he threw Nuo Jin into the drifting town, so after the time gap closed, he returned to the original time point.

But this woman spent three years in the small town...

Thinking of this, Tianyang felt a little sorry for her. It was hard for her to survive in this place. Perhaps because he had ordered Yan Mo to protect her, she was not torn to pieces by the residents in the small town.

However, after living here alone for three years, even the strongest person would probably collapse.

No wonder Nuo Jin swore allegiance as soon as she saw him...

"Got it, clean yourself up, and then listen to me..."

Tianyang took out water and food from his waist bag and handed them to Nuojin. It had been a long time since he had eaten normal food, and after taking it, Nuojin wolfed it down, listening to Tianyang's explanation of the current situation while eating.

After eating, she calmed down a lot. Without waiting for Tianyang's instructions, she nodded and said, "I understand. Now the time in the hospital building has returned to normal. For He Siji and the others, I was only away for a day and a half."

"Please rest assured, Master. I won't reveal any flaws. The church won't know your identity, nor will it know the secrets of this town!"

Tian Yang said calmly: "It's better to do so, otherwise next time, you will have to live out your life here alone."

Nuo Jin shuddered. This was more terrifying than killing her directly!

After Nuo Jin tidied herself up a little, she still looked haggard, but much better than before.

After Tianyang confirmed that there would be no flaws, he took her out of the gap and returned to the hospital. Nuo Jin was trembling all over and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Tianyang coughed dryly and pointed at the corner of her eyes. Nuo Jin reacted, nodded, wiped her tears in a few seconds, and gave Tianyang a flattering smile.

Tianyang nodded and took Nuojin downstairs.

When I emerged from the hospital building, I saw that Wuhen and Xia Yuan had already returned to the defense position.

The two were receiving treatment and looked much more miserable than Tianyang.

Arriving at the position, Tian Yang greeted He Wen Chi, who was all smiles, genuinely happy for the safe return of several members of the Holy Temple.

After Wuhen and the others finished their treatment, everyone packed up their things and went to the hospital exit.

When they got here, no one dared to be the first to go out, as they were all worried that the time gap had not been completely closed.

"Let me explore the way."

Tianyang strode forward, crossed the exit, and landed safely on the ground outside the door.

There was a burst of cheers from the back, and He Wenchi and the others walked out with peace of mind. A moment later, they were already sitting in the church's special vehicles, and the two special vehicles turned around and left the hospital.

Tianyang sat by the window, silently watching the hospital gradually disappear into the darkness outside the window, thinking that Su Lie should be able to leave safely in the end.

... ...

A few days later, they returned to the Skyfort and after making a brief report to the church, they went their separate ways.

Back at his apartment, Tianyang took a shower and relaxed his body and mind.

After eating a simple meal, he went to the bedroom, took out a pen and paper, and planned to summarize his experience.

After thinking for a moment, Tianyang put down his pen and wrote neatly on the paper.

'The rules of the time gap.'

'First, according to the church, a normal time gap only affects three to five days, and rarely lasts more than a week. However, this time, the gap we encountered was quite special, swallowing up the origin of the 'world', making the time span as long as 17 years. This should be just a special case.'

'Second, when there is a time gap, if you leave the gap at will, there will be a "time backlash", which is a self-correction and repayment phenomenon of time. Does this mean that time will not disappear, speed up, or slow down? In the chaotic time gap, time backlash is even more terrifying. It will ignore the above rules and directly accelerate the consumption of time on the person who leaves. In the blink of an eye, it will take away his life.

As for the principle, it is impossible to study it because the gap has disappeared.

In addition, if the gap is closed, there will be no time backlash. '

'Third, if you destroy the origin of the gap, there will be remnants. However, it is not certain whether this is the norm or an exception.'

"in addition... ... "
