Ning Cheng looked at the distant dawn and stood there for a long time without moving. It seemed as if he had once again fallen into an epiphany.
However, Shen Qinyu could feel the coldness growing more and more intense. The surrounding ice-cold air felt like bone-piercing steel needles that continuously pierced into her body. Even with her Spiritual Consciousness and her Celestial Essence, she could not completely drive away this ice-cold air.
She retracted her gaze from the dawn and saw that she was surrounded by an endless plain. No, it should be an endless ice field. There were no protruding peaks, not even a single blade of grass.
Looking at her naked body, Shen Qinyu quickly moved a few feet away from Ning Cheng and took out a tent. Entering it, she quickly took off all the tattered clothes on her body.
After casting a Dust Removal Technique on herself, Shen Qinyu felt relieved. Although her hair had turned silver, her skin and appearance had not changed much.
Just as Shen Qinyu took out her clothes and was about to put them on, a lightning-like shadow rushed into her tent and quickly took her away.
Shen Qinyu did not resist. The moment the shadow took her away, she immediately recognised who this person was. She grabbed the clothes in her hands and calmly looked at Ning Cheng before asking, "Why?"
She wasn't an irrational person, but the Wanderer in front of her, who had brought her here, didn't say anything. Instead, he grabbed her when she was about to put on her clothes. This made her feel extremely angry and humiliated deep in her heart.
Ning Cheng spoke with an equally calm tone, "You will know when you look back."
When Shen Qinyu looked back, she found that the tent she had just arranged was nowhere to be seen. The place where she had arranged the tent was now covered in ice crystals, with nothing else.
"Aah ….." Shen Qinyu screamed in shock, forgetting to put on her clothes.
"Put on your clothes first, I'll explain it to you." Ning Cheng glanced at Shen Qinyu and spoke with a calm tone.
Shen Qinyu discovered that she was still naked. Although for her, being looked at once was the same as being looked at a hundred times. However, taking off her clothes in front of a stranger, even if she was rational, she still could not get over it.
No longer caring about the fact that she was in front of this Wanderer, Shen Qinyu quickly changed her clothes before giving out a sigh of relief.
"Do you know about the Time Wheel?" Not waiting for Shen Qinyu to speak, Ning Cheng took the initiative to ask.
Shen Qinyu put on the mask first. When she felt a trace of coldness on her face, she took in a deep breath and nodded, "I know that within the Time Wilderness, the Time Wheel is the most terrifying thing. Once the Time Wheel appears, if you can't escape from the Time Wheel in time, you will die ten times out of ten … …"
Speaking until here, Shen Qinyu seemed to have thought of something and looked at Ning Cheng in shock, "You just said … …"
Ning Cheng nodded, "Yes, it was the Time Wheel just now. The Time Wheels in this place seemed different from other places. They moved in a certain direction and did not spread out. Perhaps it was also because the Time Wheel in this place was not broken that it did not spread out. Just now, a Time Wheel passed by the tent where you changed your clothes, and I pulled you out in time. "
Ning Cheng was too familiar with the Time Wheel. He had almost died under the broken Time Wheel in the Perpetual Moon Lake. Fortunately, he had the Mysterious Yellow Bead.
"I understand." Shen Qinyu looked at the vast expanse of ice crystal plains and immediately understood why there were no protrusions in this place. Time Wheels came and went in this place all year round, and anything that protruded would be swept to the ground by the Time Wheel.
"Thank you ….." Shen Qinyu gave a grateful bow to Ning Cheng. Although she was not like other female cultivators, who would not react to being seen naked, she still found it hard to get rid of the awkwardness in her heart.
Seeing Shen Qinyu still shivering from the cold, Ning Cheng suddenly grabbed Shen Qinyu's hand and spoke, "Burning the heart with an inch of fire, Celestial Essence entering the Lesser Lake ….."
Not waiting for Shen Qinyu to operate her cultivation method, a warm flow of Celestial Essence appeared within her body. After Ning Cheng put down her hand, Shen Qinyu's Celestial Essence automatically flowed through the meridians pointed out by Ning Cheng. The bone-chilling cold immediately dissipated, and it no longer felt as terrifying as before.
"Did you think of this by yourself?" Shen Qinyu looked at Ning Cheng in shock. She knew that Ning Cheng did not belong to any sect, nor did he have any inheritance. However, his cold dispelling cultivation method turned out to be quite powerful. At this moment, she had already forgotten about the awkwardness from before.
Ning Cheng showed a smile, "I thought about it myself and read about it from other places. But let's talk about it later. There should be some Time Stones here. "
"Time Stones ….." As Ning Cheng spoke, Shen Qinyu saw a Time Stone. She had wanted to ask about it, but she had already put it aside. With a flash, she rushed towards the place where the Time Wheel had just swept past and reached out to grab a dark grey-coloured stone the size of a longan.
A faint flow of time radiated from the stone. It felt like the vicissitudes of time, but it also felt like an indescribable flow of time.
"It really is a Time Stone." Shen Qinyu's eyes flashed with excitement. She had entered the Time Wilderness for a few years, but this was the first time she had picked up a Time Stone.
"So that's how it is." Ning Cheng understood that wherever the Time Wheel had passed through, there was a high chance of finding a Time Stone. Time Stones and Time Wheels had a connection. When he was in the Perpetual Moon Lake, he had picked up three Time Stones because the Time Wheel had broken.
If that Time Wheel had broken, then maybe he would have found more than one Time Stone.
Ning Cheng also knew that apart from him, no one would dare to break the Time Wheel.
Shen Qinyu finally sobered up from her excitement. She put the Time Stone into a jade box and then handed the jade box to Ning Cheng, "This is for you. You saved me, and you brought me to this place."
Ning Cheng pushed Shen Qinyu's hand back and spoke, "Since there is a Time Stone here, it means that there are others. As long as we look around here, we can definitely find more Time Stones. From now on, whoever finds it, can keep it. "
Shen Qinyu did not continue to give the Time Stone to Ning Cheng. This kind of thing was priceless, and she also longed for it. However, Ning Cheng, this starry skies' Wanderer, once again gave her a new impression. A Celestial Scryer Cultivator who could refuse a Time Stone, she felt sure that there was not a second person like him.
Not to mention Celestial Scryer Cultivators, even Striking Order Heavenly Emperor might not be able to refuse a Time Stone. This kind of thing was just too precious. If it were any other cultivator, they might have already prepared to kill her to silence her. However, this starry skies' Wanderer in front of her actually refused it without even the slightest bit of greed.
"Remember, don't stray too far away from me." After Ning Cheng spoke a few words to Shen Qinyu, he took the initiative to enter this seemingly endless ice field.
Shen Qinyu nodded. Although her Spiritual Consciousness only had a range of one foot, her eyes could still see Ning Cheng in front of her.
Ning Cheng had spoken the truth. In this vast expanse of ice, there was definitely more than one Time Stone in this place. In just an hour, Shen Qinyu's surprised voice once again arrived. Apparently, she had picked up a second Time Stone.
Shen Qinyu looked at Ning Cheng's back and wondered how many Time Stones this starry skies' Wanderer had picked up. She was walking behind him, so logically speaking, he should have picked up more than her.
Ning Cheng indeed picked up more Time Stones compared to Shen Qinyu. Generally speaking, the Time Stones were the size of rice grains and peas, which he simply did not bother to pick up. The ones he picked up were at least the size of a broad bean, while most of them were the size of a longan. Some of them were even bigger than a fist.
As for the Time Stones that Shen Qinyu picked up, Ning Cheng had deliberately let her pick them up. Otherwise, in this place, his Spiritual Consciousness could sweep through dozens of miles, without missing anything.
A month later, Ning Cheng and Shen Qinyu picked up fewer and fewer Time Stones. However, whether it was Shen Qinyu or Ning Cheng, they both felt very satisfied. Shen Qinyu had picked up more than 20 Time Stones. She even suspected that the total number of Time Stones picked up by the cultivators who entered the Time Wilderness would not be as many as hers.
Of course, this Wanderer in front of her was an exception. Since she had picked up so many Time Stones, it would have been strange if this Wanderer, walking in front of her, picked up less.
Shen Qinyu looked up at Ning Cheng in front of her and immediately froze.
Previously, she had been looking down for Time Stones and only occasionally looked at Ning Cheng to see if he was in her line of sight. However, she did not look at the surrounding scenery. At this moment, she felt shocked to discover that the place in front of her was no longer an ice field, but a forest that looked like a world of ice and snow.
Shen Qinyu quickly took a few steps and arrived at Ning Cheng's side. However, before she could speak, she felt a warm sensation around her waist. Ning Cheng's hand had already wrapped around her waist, and she immediately flew up while sticking to the ground.
Shen Qinyu instantly understood that this Wanderer's Spiritual Consciousness was far stronger than hers. Although the two of them had picked up many Time Stones along the way, they had yet to encounter a Time Wheel. Apparently, it had something to do with this Wanderer's Spiritual Consciousness.
A Celestial Shatterer Cultivator could use his Spiritual Consciousness to avoid a Time Wheel, just how terrifying was this? From this, it could be seen that this Wanderer's understanding of the Laws of Time was far stronger than her own.
"What a beautiful world!" Shen Qinyu, who was put down by Ning Cheng, could not help but exclaim when she saw the world of ice and snow in front of her.
The undulating ice hills looked crystal clear, while some of the ice trees formed various shapes.
"What the hell is this place? I've read a lot of information about the Sea of Twilight, but I've never seen such a place. "Shen Qinyu muttered to herself.
Ning Cheng and Shen Qinyu were different. His Spiritual Consciousness could penetrate into this world of ice and snow. As such, he could feel the desolation and danger of this world of ice and snow.
"If the place we entered is the Sea of Twilight, then I think this place might be the seabed of the Sea of Twilight. Let's go in and have a look. Maybe there is a way out of this place. "Ning Cheng spoke with a deep voice.
Even if Ning Cheng had not said anything, Shen Qinyu had already planned to go in and have a look.
Ning Cheng took the first step into this icy world, and a terrifying bone-chilling cold immediately assaulted him. Even Ning Cheng had to fully circulate his Celestial Essence to barely resist this bone-chilling cold.
After several years of tempering and gaining insights in the Sea of Twilight, Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness could now reach a range of a hundred miles. Yet, he still felt that it was difficult to resist. Shen Qinyu, whose Spiritual Consciousness could only cover a radius of one foot, shivered even more. She could only take a single step before finding it hard to walk.
