The wind blew and the clouds scudded. The sky darkened.
The Saint Sunset Mountain quaked and an infinite amount of energy swept through the nine heavens. Like an awakening ancestor, it was immortal and undying.
"Are they coming out …"
Ling Xian opened his eyes. He thought the movement of the Saint Sunset Mountain was because Zhan Ge and the others were about to come out.
But in the next second, he rejected this guess.
Because the infinite amount of energy turned into a suction force that swallowed everything in sight like a black hole.
HOMMM!
Ancient trees snapped, beasts leaped into the air, and even mountains hundreds and thousands of meters tall were uprooted.
This suction force was far too powerful. Even Ling Xian found it hard to stand straight.
"What is going on?"
Ling Xian's expression turned serious. The Cauldron of Mountain and River appeared and suppressed his body.
Unfortunately, it only had a small effect.
The suction force of the Saint Sunset Mountain was far too strong. Ling Xian was fine, but Xie Xuan and the other three servants had been sucked into the mountain along with the ancient trees.
"Stop!"
Ling Xian shouted. The three powers of the physique and the Qi exploded. He rooted himself to the ground and resisted the suction force.
Sadly, after a short while, he could no longer hold on and was sucked into the mountain.
BANG!
After a muffled rumble, Ling Xian fell from tens of thousands of meters high. Luckily, his physique was strong. Or else he would've been smashed into meat paste.
Despite his strong physique, he was seeing stars and it took him a long time to get rid of the dizziness.
What could he do? The suction force and the distance of tens of thousands of meters. To be safe was already impressive.
"What is going on …"
Ling Xian bitterly smiled, feeling very helpless.
He knew that the Saint Sunset Mountain was a dead end and he knew that there was no way he could get the treasure. Therefore, he didn't want to enter the mountain.
However, the Saint Luo Mountain sucked him in. Who could he reason with?
"The Saint Sunset Mountain wouldn't move for no reason. It seems like Zhan Ge and the others activated some sort of mechanism."
Ling Xian shook his head and stopped thinking about the reason for the mountain's movement.
Since he was already here, what was the point of thinking about it?
Ling Xian glanced around and saw that he was in a dense forest. The ancient trees were as strong as dragons and the vicissitudes of life washed over him.
"The Saint Sunset Mountain is full of danger. Death is certain. With my own strength, it will be hard for me to leave."
Ling Xian squinted his eyes, knowing that it was too dangerous for him to be alone. He had to find Zhan Ge and the others.
However, he did not know where to look.
"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time."
Ling Xian sighed. Using the Flower of Dao to protect himself, he headed east.
However, after an hour had passed, not only did he not walk out of the dense forest, he had instead returned to the starting point.
This made Ling Xian frown. He knew that there must be an array here. However, he could not sense the existence of an array.
"Just based on this point alone, it's no wonder it's the number one forbidden area of the Limitless Continent."
Ling Xian sighed, a little shaken.
Ever since he became a grandmaster, the number of arrays that could stop him could be counted on one hand. Yet now, he couldn't even find where the array was. Why wouldn't he be shocked?
What shocked him even more was that the ancient trees and flowers suddenly withered. Even the most luxuriant and flourishing ancient trees died in an instant.
At the same time, Ling Xian's lifespan decreased by 200 years. Half of his black hair turned white.
This made him shiver all over, as if he had fallen into an icy hell.
This was far too eerie. There was no power, no strange force, yet 200 years of his lifespan was taken away. Anyone would shudder at this!
Luckily, this strange force didn't last forever. After taking away 200 years of Ling Xian's lifespan, it disappeared without a trace.
Luckily, Ling Xian was used to seeing storms and waves. Therefore, he didn't panic and consumed the Dan right away.
He wasn't sure if this strange force would come again. Naturally, he needed to replenish his lifespan. Or else next time, his hair wouldn't be as simple as turning white.
"What kind of power is this? Could it be … the power of time?"
Ling Xian mumbled to himself. His white hair slowly turned black and he returned to his prime.
If it truly was the power of time, then it would be far too terrifying. Other than the immortals, who have the same lifespan as the heavens, everyone else will die!
All signs pointed to the fact that this was the legendary power of time!
"I have 400 years of lifespan left. Including the Dan, I have 1,200 years. In other words, I can only survive five times."
"The sixth time, I will die for sure."
Ling Xian's expression turned serious and his brows were tightly knitted together.
The forest was a labyrinth. If he doesn't break the hidden array, he won't be able to get out. The power of time doesn't appear regularly. After the sixth time, he won't even be left with a skeleton.
"No matter how I look at it, I will die for sure."
Ling Xian rubbed his temples, knowing that breaking the array was his only way out.
As he marched forward, he used his Qi to search for the array.
Half an hour passed. Not only did Ling Xian find nothing, but he also encountered the power of time again.
Just like last time, the power of time came without warning and without suspense, took away 200 years of Ling Xian's lifespan.
What could he do? This was the legendary power of time. It was silent and unstoppable!
"Another 200 years …" Ling Xian bitterly smiled.
Though he was someone who had surpassed the undefeatable realm, against the power of time, he was helpless.
"I have figured out the pattern. The power of time comes every half an hour. In other words, I only have two hours."
"If I cannot find the array within two hours and break it, then there is no way I will survive."
Ling Xian sighed deeply. His brows were full of worry.
Two hours was far too short. Especially since he had no clue what to do, it seemed even shorter.
"Since things have gotten to this point, I have to give it my all."
Ling Xian mumbled and his gaze turned determined.
The space between his brows shone and the enlivener formed a hand seal. The moment it opened its eyes, its Qi multiplied!
Instantly, a storm of Qi engulfed the area and searched for the array.
Another half an hour passed and Ling Xian lost another 200 years of his lifespan.
The him right now had a head full of white hair and his energy was no longer as vigorous as before. If he didn't have a few Dan of Prolonging Life, he wouldn't have lasted this long.
"I can last three more times. Three hours."
Ling Xian bitterly smiled and swallowed all the Dans at once.
Instantly, his condition returned to normal. However, he had no more Dans to extend his lifespan. When his energy weakened again, there was nothing else he could do.
"I will find it for sure!"
Ling Xian was determined and vowed not to give up.
Finally, half an hour later, just as his lifespan was about to be stolen again, he found the hidden array.
It was hidden in the void and was a heavenly array that could twist space.
"No wonder I didn't notice it. No wonder I couldn't get out of the forest."
Ling Xian squinted his eyes. Not only was this array hidden in the void, it was also twisting space.
No matter how far he walked or which direction he went, it was all an illusion. In reality, he had been staying where he was.
"I finally found you."
Ling Xian exhaled a long breath of murky air. However, he was not happy nor did he relax.
Space-type formations were the most difficult to break, especially those that could distort space, which were the most difficult.
"There's only an hour left. If I don't break this array, I will die here."
Ling Xian mumbled. His hands moved in the air and an array of carvings appeared.
