An Lin knew that he was the only one Dongfang Zhuangshi could rely on now.
He was already Dongfang Zhuangshi's last straw to clutch at, his final chance at life and death.
However, An Lin was also in despair. He was completely dumbstruck by this situation. He didn't even know what was going on, let alone how to save Dongfang Mengjie.
Perhaps he would be able to figure something out if he had some time to do some research.
However, what they lacked the most right now was time. If Dongfang Zhuangshi couldn't hold on any longer, the white stone would dim, and Dongfang Mengjie would be instantly destroyed by the black threads in the air.
"An Lin … Please …" Dongfang Zhuangshi gritted his teeth and burned his blood essence in a frenzy in an attempt to salvage the situation. However, his aura was becoming weaker and weaker, and the black threads were drawing closer and closer to the peaceful woman.
An Lin took a deep breath, and his heart was filled with bitterness. Please, he had to at least give her a detailed direction. Otherwise, how was she supposed to know what to do?
An Lin grumbled internally, but he was also trying his best to think of a way out of this predicament.
He injected a huge amount of power of time into the city in an attempt to force the flow of time, only to create a chaotic flow of time. At the end of the day, this city was still unable to synchronize with the current time.
However, the only thing that he was happy about was that time was no longer stationary. It was constantly jumping up and down, which meant that there was a possibility that it could flow normally.
Just as An Lin was contemplating this, he suddenly felt like something was different about Dongfang Mengjie, as if something had overlapped with something else. He looked through the curtains of the clinic and saw the bustling crowd outside.
His pupils contracted drastically.
This was the scene that had taken place after time had stopped!
Time could return to its original state?
But soon, the scene outside the clinic changed again, and it was no longer the same as before.
However, An Lin could already see hope.
This city could return to its original state. If he could connect Dongfang Mengjie's true body to that period of time, then she wouldn't suffer any backlash.
If he could connect that period of time to the absolute time of the real world, then he would be able to save her from her time predicament!
Now that time was beating irregularly, how could he make it flow normally again?
Wait … connect?
Connected with Absolute Time?
An Lin's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Mengjie, don't worry. Even if I die, I will die before you. I won't let you die alone." The energy within Dongfang Zhuangshi's body had already been completely depleted, and his blood essence was his last source of energy. The uncle's expression was clearly extremely dispirited, but as long as he looked at the woman in front of him, his eyes would shine brightly, as if he would never get tired of looking at her.
"Dongfang Zhuangshi, I have a way to save her! Hang in there!" An Lin yelled.
Dongfang Zhuangshi shuddered upon hearing this, and tears welled up in his eyes. "Really? Fellow Daoist An Lin, is that true? "
"It's true, so don't give up," An Lin said.
"Don't worry, I can definitely hold on! That's great, that's really great … "The uncle, who had lived for countless years, couldn't help but tear up.
He had already given up all hope, and he had already prepared himself to die along with Dongfang Mengjie. Who would have thought that An Lin would really be able to turn the tables and give him hope of a new life?
Time was still ticking erratically.
An Lin's entire body was tense as he surveyed his surroundings.
He had to pay attention to every change in time.
Time passed by quickly.
Dongfang Zhuangshi's entire body trembled, and he was on the brink of collapse. The blood essence within his body was also almost completely depleted, but he forced himself to not collapse at the thought of saving Dongfang Mengjie's life.
An Lin was also very anxious, but time ticked erratically, and he didn't know when he would be able to return to the original point in time. He might be able to return to it in the next second, or he might never be able to return to it in the future.
This was all up to luck …
Sometimes, fate really wasn't something that living beings could comprehend.
There were countless dao, and there were also countless fates.
With every snap of a finger, in every instant, there were countless possibilities.
An Lin didn't think too much about anything else as he focused on observing the ticking of time.
Finally, at a certain moment, that feeling appeared again.
The Dongfang Mengjie before him suddenly overlapped with the world around her. There were people coming and going outside the medical clinic, and the sunlight shone through the window onto her face, giving her a gentle, enchanting, and tranquil appearance.
An Lin focused his gaze, and his aura instantly climbed to its peak.
Golden ripples suddenly proliferated throughout the entire medical clinic before expanding infinitely, enshrouding the entire ancient city before everything came to a complete standstill!
Spell technique of the Heavenly Dao …
Time stopped!
In the next instant, the chaotic time that was constantly beating stopped beating.
Everything came to a standstill aside from a man whose white robe continued to flutter gently.
At that moment, An Lin had become the master of time in the ancient city!
Everything fell silent aside from a single scene. He wielded the paramount power of laws, and the black threads that were trying to corrode Dongfang Mengjie instantly disappeared in that instant!
That's right, this spell technique he had obtained from the river of time was the key to breaking this deadlock!
The Time Stop Technique could stop the flow of time within a certain range. After time was stopped, the area that had been paused would reconnect with the absolute flow of time of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
This was the special property of his spell technique, and it could be used in any situation!
In essence, the flow of time in this ancient city was a misaligned flow.
If An Lin used Time Stop on an area that was already misaligned, then after time was stopped, the flow of time in this ancient city would forcibly reconnect with the absolute flow of time of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth! In other words, when An Lin used Time Stop, he was actually making use of the spell technique's passive ability to reconnect with the absolute flow of time!
One second later.
Sunlight shone through the window and spilled into the room, warming the entire space.
A light breeze blew past, and the curtains of the medical clinic danced gently.
Ding ling ling, ding ling ling …
An extremely crisp and pleasant sound rang out from the wind chimes.
"Osmanthus cake for sale! Fresh osmanthus cake, three coins a piece."
"Mommy, I want to eat osmanthus cake."
"Osmanthus cake my a * s, you useless child! Eat the candied haws in your hand first!"
A burst of laughter and chatter sounded from outside.
A woman in a cream-colored dress was grabbing medicine, and her slender hands were very agile. However, her movements suddenly faltered, and she raised her head, upon which she was rooted to the spot. Her bright eyes reflected the image of a middle-aged man with Kirin horns.
The middle-aged man had tears streaming down his face.
"What's wrong, Zhuangshi? Did you fail the Pill Tower exam? If you failed the exam, then so be it. Why are you crying like a grown man? " The woman was a little exasperated as she raised her hand to slap this disappointing man in the face.
"Mengjie … I … I …"
Dongfang Zhuangshi wiped tears from his eyes. He was excited and a little dizzy.
"I think I'm a little anemic …"
The middle-aged man's head rang, and his eyes rolled over as he fainted.
