A cold breeze blew past.
Within the River of Time, the monsters responsible for watching over time and history had once again appeared.
Their numbers were unknown, their shapes were all grotesque, but their auras were extremely powerful.
Above the River of Time.
Voices could be heard from a lone ball of light:
"This ball of light is becoming a bit unstable"
"Hm, your intuition is correct, the six Sealing Tokens' teleportation power is about to run out"
"Then, are we going to jump down?"
"That's right, we're going to jump"
At this point, both voices became a bit more cautious.
"Boss, I remember you saying that these monsters that guard the River of Time are very powerful, a few of them even stronger than you?"
"That's right, they're unique entities manifested by the Law of Three Layers, so don't provoke them carelessly or you'll die without a complete corpse"
"Ah … I know that feeling …"
A sense of danger appeared in their minds.
"Hey, Boss, we're letting history continue on its original path, so these monsters won't bite us, right?"
"About that … I think so"
"Probably?"
"Ah, if we're really worried, we'll have to make some preparations"
"… Seems like we need to make some preparations, after all, our lives are at stake"
"That's right"
"Then …"
"Yeah, show us what you're capable of"
"You as well"
The ball of light flickered a bit, about to collapse.
It wouldn't be too long before it broke!
A cat appeared at the edge of the ball of light.
This cat had activated [Ghostly Shadow of Night] and was crouching at the edge of the ball of light, ready to jump down at any moment.
A Hound was crouching next to the cat with a solemn expression and a thick book on his head, ready to activate his ability at any moment.
The cat was an orange cat, powerful.
The Hound was a black Hound, ferocious.
Both the cat and the dog had entered their battle mode.
They're ready!
All of a sudden, the orange cat said: "Speaking of which, when you transported me to the Age of Immemorial, some of my friends were also using a teleportation technique to avoid Reneedol's search"
"Hm? What's the situation? "Black Dog asked.
The orange cat then told him about Fei Yue, Buttercup, and Crow.
"They're currently on an Immortal ship, using telepathy to escape before Reneedol arrived" the orange cat concluded.
"That's fine, but since we've returned from the Ancient One, time should have advanced quite a bit," Black Dog said.
The orange cat froze.
Yes.
Time would continue to move forward according to inertia, and if a person who returned to the past wanted to return to the future, he would definitely not be able to return to the point in time that he left.
He would travel through time and arrive in the distant future.
"Which point in time would we return to?" the orange cat asked.
"I'm not too sure myself. After all, I spent too much time in the Ancient Era." Black Dog shook his head.
"Very well, let's go find my friends first" the orange cat suggested.
Black Dog's eyes suddenly flashed, and he fell into deep thought.
"What is it?" the orange cat looked at him and asked.
"An immortal ship seems to belong to the Samsara," Black Dog suddenly said.
"I did" the orange cat admitted.
"My world attribute was changed by you, so I'm now also a living being of the Samsara" Black Dog continued.
"That's right, what are you trying to say?" the orange cat asked.
"With my current appearance, if I were to meet your friends, you wouldn't be able to say that I'm a great entity like the Lord of Infinite Origins, but I've turned into a dog, that wouldn't be the style of my generation" Black Dog worriedly said.
The orange cat sighed in relief.
I thought he was worried about something, but it turns out he was worried about his reputation.
"Alright, tell me what you want" the orange cat said.
Black Dog became spirited: "I need a new Title, one that's different from my previous self"
"Have you thought about it?" the orange cat lazily asked.
"I have" Black Dog replied.
"What is it?" the orange cat continued to ask.
Black Dog puffed out his chest: "Since I'm a living being of the Samsara, and a dog whose body is covered in black flames, I've decided to borrow some of the Samsara's legends and call myself Tiangou"
"Licker?" the orange cat asked.
"Tiangou" Black Dog corrected him.
"Tch, I thought you'd already let it go, why are you still calling yourself Licker?" the orange cat asked in confusion.
"No, Tiangou" Black Dog corrected him again.
"Ah, so it's Tiangou, got it"
Pop!
The sound of a bubble popping could be heard.
The drifting ball of light disappeared from the River of Time.
"It's here!" Black Dog shouted.
The six Sealing Tokens circled around the orange cat once before being recalled into his body.
A second later.
The cat and dog both tumbled, fluttered, and fell into the River of Time in various poses.
However, this drop proved a certain thing.
Their worries were in vain.
The monsters in the River of Time didn't even bother to look at them, allowing them to fall into a certain section of the River of Time.
…
The sun was dim and dim, giving off a dim light that didn't contain any warmth.
The world was deathly silent.
All the buildings were empty, other than the wind, there was no other sound in the city.
The orange cat and Black Dog were sitting on top of a skyscraper.
"Where are we right now?" Black Dog asked.
"Around the world where my friends were transported to, but I couldn't find them" the orange cat replied.
The orange cat stared at the city.
Strangely, all the buildings in this city appeared to be grey in color, as if they would crumble at the slightest touch. They looked like quicksand, but more like the dust left behind after a substance was completely destroyed.
I seem to have some recollection of this …
If that's the case, it's too dangerous.
The orange cat raised his front paw and muttered: "Fei yue, Buttercup, Crow"
A thin black thread appeared out of nowhere and coiled around his paw, but didn't fly out.
"They shouldn't be in this world anymore. From the looks of it, something must've happened here" Black Dog commented.
Neither the dog nor the cat said anything.
That's a bit troublesome.
The orange cat pondered: "Seems like we need to figure out how much time has passed since we returned"
"That's right, let's see if there are any survivors left in this world"
Black Dog flipped through the Book of Prophesized Destinies and tapped a certain page.
A gigantic single-horned snake appeared on that blank page.
This snake looked extraordinary at first glance, and its eyes were filled with caution and vigilance.
"It's to the East, let's go"
"Let's go"
The Cat and the Dog leaped up into the sky and flew into the distance.
Half an hour later.
The desert.
In the sky above the boundless desert, the orange cat and Black Dog appeared.
"I don't see it" the orange cat replied.
"It's hiding deep underground, probably sleeping" Black Dog said as he held the Book of Prophesized Destinies.
An ancient sword manifested next to the orange cat.
The sword turned into a streak of light and slammed into the ground.
The ground trembled, kicking up a cloud of sand that obscured the sunlight.
"Who? Who's outside? "
A fearful voice resounded from deep underground.
The orange cat and Black Dog exchanged glances.
"No need to worry, we're only here to ask a few things" the orange cat used his inner sight to speak with a loud and resounding voice.
The voice hesitantly asked: "Who are you?"
Black Dog cleared his throat and replied: "I am the great Infinity Origin, no, I'm the Samsara Tiangou"
"Samsara bootlicker?" the voice doubtfully asked.
"The Samsara Tiangou!" Black Dog bared his teeth.
"Ah, that sounds impressive. This world hasn't been inhabited for a very long time, can you save me?" the voice hurriedly asked.
"How hard can that be? As long as you tell us what happened in this world, we'll take you away" Black Dog raised his head.
"That's right, tell us what time it is right now and we'll take you away from this world" the orange cat also loudly sent his voice.
"Is that so? Then I'll have to thank you two … "
The desert began to rumble. Countless grains of sand parted like a tidal wave.
A gigantic creature that was several thousand meters long appeared.
Sure enough, it was a single-horned python!
It shook off the sand on its body and looked around: "Two … Masters, where are you?"
"Here, look up" Black Dog replied.
The single-horned python looked up and took a closer look.
A cat and a dog were silently floating in the gloomy sky.
"Pfft"
The single-horned python coughed up a mouthful of saliva and painfully knocked its head against the ground.
"Hey, what's wrong?" the orange cat hurriedly reached his paw out, preparing to form a hand seal.
"Are you under some sort of curse?" Black Dog also took out the Book of Prophesized Destinies and began to flip through it.
The single-horned python's desolate voice could be heard:
「 I, the king that has existed for 1700 years, the legendary guardian snake of this world, have fallen to the point of being deceived by a cat and a dog, how hateful! 」
The orange cat and Black Dog both froze.
The cat also stopped forming hand seals, and the dog also stopped flipping through the book.
They both narrowed their eyes.
"This guy's brain isn't that good, are we supposed to be normal cats and dogs?" the orange cat complained.
"That's right, it's looking down on us like a dog" Black Dog also commented.
"Earth sword, knock it out" the orange cat shouted.
The same sword from before suddenly appeared above the single-horned python's head and lightly struck it.
Boom!!!
The single-horned python's head struck the ground, creating a crater several hundred meters in diameter.
It had fallen unconscious.
Quicksand continued to fall into the crater, almost burying its head inside.
The orange cat lightly swung his tail.
The single-horned python's entire body flew up, its head right in front of the orange cat's paw.
The orange cat placed his paw on it.
[Soul Reading], activate!
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
"How is it?" Black Dog asked.
The orange cat pulled his paw back and spoke with a complicated expression: "We've wasted too much time, the situation has completely changed"
"What's the situation now?" Black Dog asked.
The orange cat glanced at him and replied: "From what it can see and feel, I can roughly understand what has happened"
"The Eternal Abyss had just been defeated, everything that's happening right now is the result of the Eternal Abyss' first layer of seal being undone"
"Ah … which means … my departure has also created an extremely dangerous situation" Black Dog mused.
The orange cat sincerely replied: "Indeed, that giant eyeball had just escaped your seal, the energy it released at the moment of its emergence was radiating towards the entire space vortex"
"The world we're currently in only experienced a tiny bit of radiation, civilization had already been destroyed"
"Only the serpent that protected the world survived."
