Online Game: You Call Him A Newbie? - Chapter 505
505 Sigh Under the Waterfall of Time
Both Lin Feng and Landry were staring blankly at the flowing river of time before them, lost in thought. Even Landry, who had never seen the true river of time before, was captivated by the sight.
It wasn’t that he lacked control over the way of time, but rather, he was in the river itself. How could he jump out of the river and see the long flow of time?
But now, because there was a gap in time, they were able to see it.
“It’s truly beautiful. Is this the flow of time?” Landry exclaimed, his eyes showing a hint of infatuation.
Lin Feng was also a bit dazed. After a long while, he descended from the carriage and hovered above the river of time, reaching his hand into the water.
To their astonishment, his hand aged visibly and rapidly as it dipped into the water. It started decaying, leaving only bones, and even the bones began to decay.
Lin Feng’s expression changed, and he quickly withdrew his hand. Then, he unleashed the power of life from within him, slowly beginning to recover. But the recovery was extremely slow because the power of time on his hand had not dissipated.
Lin Feng estimated that it would take a long time to fully recover.
Moreover, the bones of his right hand seemed to be mixed with a lot of the power of time, making them translucent and crystalline.
Seeing this, Landry remarked, “No one, not even gods, can withstand the erosion of the river of time.
“Even the gods, possessing endless lifespans, would quickly turn into dry bones and then decay upon falling into it. This is time.”
Lin Feng was lost in thought. According to Landry’s words, even he would be eroded to death if he fell into the River of Time.
Lin Feng was in a daze. According to Landry, even he would be washed to death if he fell into the river of time.
So, did Zhong Ya, who suppressed the River of Time, get eroded by the waters of time? Was she still alive?
If she was alive, how powerful would she be?
Then, a sudden realization struck him.”Even gods can’t withstand the scouring of the river of time. What about worlds? A world can’t possibly dissipate from the scouring of the river of time, right?”
Of course, it was not enough if it was only a small world within a divine-level body. However, what if it was a large world like the Divine Realm?
At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly understood. If Zhong Ya was still alive and had been washed away by the river of time, she must be the ruler of the Divine Realm!
Then where was the other party?
Moreover, even Zhong Ya, who had become the World Lord, could not defeat the person on the throne she saw?
Was a World Lord not a true-self expert?
Lin Feng returned to the carriage and looked around, trying to find Zhong Ya.
The river stretched endlessly, calm and waveless, but both Lin Feng and Landry could sense that the water was flowing forward.
It was just like time. Regardless of whether one was paying attention or not, it kept moving forward.
Little Black and the others were still sleeping, missing out on this scene.
Above Lin Feng and the others, in the extremely distant sky, there was a pitch-black rift from which they had come.
In other directions, darkness stretched indefinitely, with only the River of Time emitting an inexplicable glow.
Seeing Lin Feng searching around, Landry knew what he was looking for. The carriage slowly ascended, allowing them to see more of their surroundings.
Once the carriage reached a certain height, both Landry and Lin Feng were once again astonished.
Because in the far distance ahead, the River of Time ceased to exist!
The river of time had stopped flowing!
Landry attempted to control the carriage to move forward, but even though they could clearly see the point where the flow ceased, they couldn’t get any closer.
Though the carriage’s speed felt slow inside, it was actually fast; if they were outside, it could have torn through the fabric of space. Yet here, it felt sluggish, as if they weren’t moving forward at all.
Landry gave up on advancing and said, “No, this is the River of Time. We could force our way through, but if we do, when we come out, it might be many years later.”
Lin Feng nodded, but he was somewhat disappointed.
The gap where Zhong Ya suppressed the river of time was likely where the flow ceased, but they couldn’t cross over at the moment.
If they forcibly passed through and returned to the outside world, they might find themselves in a reality completely fused with the Divine Realm, rendering their journey pointless.
Moreover, would he definitely be able to see Zhong Ya in the past? What if she was no longer there?
Landry smiled, “Although we can’t physically go there to see, there’s still a way to know what’s happening there.”
Lin Feng looked at Landry in confusion and saw a paper effigy suddenly appear in Landry’s hand. The paper effigy was only the size of a palm. Except for limbs and a head, it had no features and not even facial expressions.
Then, Landry touched the paper effigy, and an ethereal thread connected it to Landry.
“Is this the Dao of Karma?” Lin Feng asked.
Landry nodded. “”If there’s any law that could traverse the river of time, it’s probably karma. Moreover, it has to be sufficiently strong karma.”
Lin Feng was taken aback, looking at the thread connecting Landry and the paper effigy to Landry, sensing that there was something different about it.
“This is your Great Dao of Karma?” Lin Feng suddenly said, “If it’s severed in the river of time, won’t your Great Dao of Karma be destroyed?”
Landry smiled, “No worries. If it’s destroyed, I can rebuild it.”
Lin Feng nodded and did not say anything else. Indeed, it was just a Great Dao. Even if it was the Great Dao of Karma, he could simply reconstruct it if it was destroyed.
Landry threw the paper effigy into the river of time. Then, the paper effigy flowed down the river. There was only a karma thread on its body that was connected to Landry.
The moment the paper effigy fell into the water, Lin Feng clearly felt that the karma line was clearly being washed away by the power of time and began to become somewhat thinner. However, the paper effigy remained unharmed.
