Chapter 2318

Time Is Eternal

Zhuowen stared at the cliff in front of him with bright eyes. Once again, he thought of the poem that he had sighed with emotion. "The sun sets in the west, and the heartbroken man is at the end of the world!"

This seemingly endless cliff that went straight into the clouds was probably the so-called end of the world, and the Space-Time Key that Zhuowen was looking for should be here.

Thinking of this, Zhuowen pushed off with his right foot and plunged into the sea around the cliff.

The seawater in other places had already been frozen by time. Only the seawater in this area was still flowing, and Zhuowen was able to enter the base of the cliff through the flowing seawater.

Although Zhuowen didn't know what was at the base of the cliff, he had a feeling that the Space-Time Key should be there. Of course, all of this was just his intuition. Zhuowen had to go down and see for himself whether it was true or not.

The moment Zhuowen plunged into the sea, he felt a bone-chilling coldness on his face. This coldness made Zhuowen's whole body shiver, and his body aged even faster. Clearly, the speed at which time passed in the sea was even more terrifying than on the surface.

Zhuowen had no choice but to take out the necklace that Yao Xiangjun had given him.

He knew that with the speed at which time passed, Zhuowen would probably die of old age before he could reach the bottom of the sea. Therefore, he had no choice but to borrow the power of the necklace.

After putting on the necklace, the aging speed of Zhuowen's body slowed down a lot. Moreover, relying on the surging vitality of the necklace, Zhuowen even started to become younger.

Zhuowen looked at the necklace with a pained expression. The green light wasn't very bright, and he knew that although the vitality of the necklace wasn't much, it should be enough for him to last for quite some time.

However, he was helpless because the vitality was decreasing every time he used it. This time, he was afraid that he would have to use up a lot of the vitality of the necklace.

If he used up the necklace, Zhuowen would be too embarrassed to meet Yao Xiangjun again.

Soon, Zhuowen dived to the bottom of the sea. Then, he saw a shocking scene at the bottom of the sea.

The bottom of the sea was simply a world of ice. Except for the several feet around the cliff which was seawater, the surrounding was a world of frozen ice and snow.

Zhuowen knew that the world of ice and snow around him was not really the power of ice and snow, but the power of time stagnation.

When the seawater was still at a certain point in time, it would solidify as if it was frozen by cold air, forming an extremely low temperature ice-like object. The surrounding seawater also followed the same principle.

In addition, Zhuowen also saw many creatures in this world of ice and snow. Most of them were marine creatures. However, he also saw many cultivators. These cultivators were frozen in the sea, motionless.

Zhuowen's gaze turned solemn. He discovered that most of the frozen cultivators' auras weren't weak. There were even a few cultivators whose auras weren't any weaker than Kuang Li from the Quicksand Family.

Clearly, this cultivator was most likely a half-step Void Sky Ninth Ascension expert.

Furthermore, these cultivators were arranged in a very orderly manner. They actually surrounded the bottom of the cliff in a circular formation.

Zhuowen guessed that the range of seawater around the cliff wasn't just a few feet. It was very likely that it was hundreds of feet, or even thousands of feet.

However, for some unknown reason, the nearby seawater was frozen in time, and the cultivators who were still in the sea were unfortunately frozen in time with the seawater.

Zhuowen looked around, and his gaze became more and more solemn. He felt that the bottom of the cliff wasn't simple. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to freeze so many cultivators.

"Hmm?"

Zhuowen's attention quickly fell on a remote corner on the left. In the ice and snow closest to the seawater, a beautiful figure completely attracted Zhuowen's attention.

This was an extremely beautiful woman. The reason why she attracted Zhuowen's attention wasn't because of her beautiful appearance, but because she was no stranger to Zhuowen.

"Yao Xiangjun?"

Zhuowen frowned slightly. This beautiful woman was the beautiful woman that Zhuowen had met in the space law area before. At that time, this beautiful woman claimed to be Yao Xiangjun's sister.

Previously, Zhuowen had gone to a secret realm with Yao Xiangjun and found a large number of spatial crystals inside.

At that time, Zhuowen had a pretty good impression of Yao Xiangjun.

However, Zhuowen felt that something was strange. Why was Yao Xiangjun at the bottom of the cliff?

If he remembered correctly, Yao Xiangjun shouldn't be able to cross the Time Divine River. It was already very good that she could enter the time law area.

However, Yao Xiangjun had entered the bottom of the cliff before him and was frozen in time in the seawater. This made Zhuowen even more puzzled.

Sizing up Yao Xiangjun, who was trapped in time, Zhuowen's gaze quickly fell on Yao Xiangjun's right hand.

He saw that Yao Xiangjun was holding a transparent crystal the size of half a palm. Upon closer inspection, the shape of this transparent crystal was somewhat similar to a heart.

"Space-time Hollow!"

Zhuowen looked at the transparent crystal in Yao Xiangjun's palm and recalled the Space-time Hollow that Yao Xiangjun had mentioned to him before. He quickly associated the two.

"Yao Xiangjun's time should have frozen not long ago. What happened here at that time?"

Zhuowen thought to himself. However, he became more and more vigilant. He saw unwillingness and fear in Yao Xiangjun's open eyes.

What happened at that time that made Yao Xiangjun reveal such an expression?

Just as Zhuowen was lost in thought, an extremely horrifying feeling rose from Zhuowen's feet and rushed along his spine to the back of Zhuowen's head.

This feeling was too strong. It was definitely a feeling that Zhuowen had never felt before. It was as if his lifeline had been strangled by an invisible force at this moment.

"You … What is your purpose in entering the bottom of the Space-time Cliff?"

A deep voice slowly sounded in Zhuowen's ears, but Zhuowen could not tell where the voice came from.

"You only have three breaths of time. If you don't give me an answer, you will end up like those cultivators!" The deep voice sounded again, but there was a trace of impatience in the voice.

Zhuowen took a deep breath and said helplessly, "I'm here for the Space-Time Key!"

The deep voice was silent for a moment, but then it laughed loudly, "You are very honest!"

Puchi!

Zhuowen spat out a mouthful of blood. His chest felt as if it had been hit hard, and he was suddenly sent flying and smashed into the edge of the cliff behind him.

Because the force was too great, Zhuowen's whole body was embedded in the cliff wall.

Zhuowen's eyes revealed a look of horror. His face was as pale as snow, and the will to resist in his heart had completely disappeared.

This unknown power was too terrifying. In front of this power, Zhuo Wen actually felt powerless. It was as if he was an ant facing a vast ocean.

Back then, when Zhuowen faced Great Brahma and Mu Chenxue, whose temperament had changed drastically, he did not feel this way. But now, facing this unknown force, he actually felt this strange feeling.
