Can't Stand This Lousy Jie Sect Anymore Chapter 40 - 39 Let the Bullets Fly for a While (Seek to Fol

Deep Night

Returning Ruins Abyss

The Golden-eyed Five Clouds Cal honestly trodded a floating auspicious cloud high in the sky.

Yu Yuan lay on the cushion between two cal humps, leaning against the hump, gazing at the bright moon hanging in the night sky, lost in thought.

After a mont, a brilliant red glow rose from the black abyss below.

Imdiately afterward, a soft, delicate body landed on the cushion.

As the glow dissipated, Huo Ling'er pushed Yu Yuan aside with her hand, and when she found she couldn't move him, she simply used him as a pillow and muttered, "I flew downwards with all my might for more than three hours, yet felt no change at all. Just how deep is this Returning Ruins?"

Yu Yuan responded without turning his head, "Try throwing your master down and you might get an idea."

Huo Ling'er wrinkled her delicate nose and couldn't help but give him a glare, "If my master heard this, he would definitely throw you down first!"

Yu Yuan pursed his lips and remained noncommittal.

Huo Ling'er knew that he wasn't particularly fond of her master and didn't take it to heart, sowhat dejectedly saying, "These Returning Ruins are too vast, searching for the source of that Chaotic Divine Light here seems like an impossible task... By the way, did you see the Chaotic Divine Light appear again while you were guarding above?"

Yu Yuan shook his head.

Ever since he had confird that the Chaotic Divine Light rising from within the Returning Ruins was a "Ti-Space Gate" capable of taking one back to the past, he had been waiting here for another ergence of the Chaotic Divine Light.

However, from the afternoon till the nightfall and the moon reaching its zenith, he saw no signs of the Chaotic Divine Light flickering again.

Of course, that doesn't necessarily an it hasn't appeared.

Because the Returning Ruins are too vast.

The region Yu Yuan could observe with his Divine Thought rely accounted for less than one ten-thousandth of the Returning Ruins Abyss.

And he wasn't the only one waiting above this abyss.

In this period, he already saw nurous Immortal Gods coming from all directions, either crossing near him or diving directly into the dark abyss below.

The news of the treasure within Returning Ruins had just begun to spread, and already so many Immortal Gods had arrived; it won't be long before this place will be overcrowded with immortals.

Along with the vastness and imasurable depths of the Returning Ruins, relying solely on himself, it would be extrely difficult to locate the "source" of that Chaotic Divine Light.

Considering this, Yu Yuan did not stop Huo Ling'er from reporting their discovery to the Daoist Duobao.

Next, what they need to do is to wait quietly.

It was both a wait for reinforcents and for the Chaotic Divine Light to appear again.

Huo Ling'er leaned next to him, idly chatting with Yu Yuan.

The topic inevitably focused on the matter of "returning to the past."

Even in the Primordial era, ti travel remains a highly sophisticated topic.

Yu Yuan had once thoroughly studied the possibility of returning to the past, thus he had a very detailed understanding of it.

In his view, ti is like a river, constantly and ceaselessly flowing in one direction.

Each droplet in the river is a mont in ti, a year, gathering together to beco waves.

However, the upstream and downstream of this river of ti are extres.

The upstream is like stagnant water, while the downstream is like turbulent waves.

This is because the past is fixed, while the future holds infinite possibilities!

To return to the past is akin to moving from the turbulent downstream against the current to the calm upstream, inevitably facing extrely powerful resistance; it is practically impossible for ordinary Immortal Gods.

Yet, that Chaotic Divine Light seems like a door connecting the upstream and downstream, passing from the downstream directly to the upstream.

And then, when the power of that Chaotic Divine Light dissipates, they are directly "flung" back to the downstream.

"Strange!"

Hearing Yu Yuan's insights about ti travel, Huo Ling'er was sowhat surprised and said, "Master said that the path of ti-space can only be understood after achieving the Daluo Dao Fruit... Did Uncle Golden Spirit teach you all this?"

Yu Yuan glanced at her, "There are quite a few scriptures about the Dao of ti-space in the Book Collection Pavilion of the Biyou Palace... Don't you ever go to the Book Collection Pavilion?"

"This..."

Huo Ling'er chuckled sheepishly and then changed the subject, "By the way, if we can go back to the past again, how should we bring the treasures back?"

The dayti event of an Immortal God bringing back the Red Sunstone and disappearing under the heavenly lightning penalty left her quite traumatized, almost making her give up the grand treasure hunting venture.

This matter was also considered by Yu Yuan.

In his view, retrieving treasures from the past space-ti is akin to altering the past.

Even the slightest change might have profound consequences, potentially completely overturning the known past!

Heavenly Dao absolutely will not allow such things to happen.

Thus, changing the past requires a price!

The cost depends on how much you changed the past.

For example, changing the Witch Demon's mutually damaging end, altering the outcos of the battle between Dao and Demon...

If such significant changes were made, even a Saint might not be able to bear the cost!

But if the change made has a negligible impact on the known past, then the required price is much smaller, even considered insignificant!

Just like in the beginning of Primordial Heaven and Earth, various treasures from chaos all flowed into Primordial, and most of these treasures would eventually beco a part of Heaven and Earth.

If one could go to that era and bring back so unnad treasures that didn't appear in later generations, it would not impact the known past too much.

However, during the Witch Demon Calamity era, as Heaven and Earth were gradually becoming ordinary, not only were treasures rare, but they were also tangled up in cause and effect, and even if they could be brought back, it would have a profound impact.

That piece of Red Sunstone is a pri example.

Originally, in this era, there were no more productions of Red Sunstone in Primordial, which is a decided past.

But an Immortal God brought back a bucket-sized piece of Red Sunstone, effectively subverting the past related to this aspect.

At that ti, Heavenly Dao naturally "intervened" to correct this mistake.

At this mont, when hearing Huo Ling'er's question, Yu Yuan casually said, "If you want to bring treasures back, rember to keep a distance, so you don't involve when the heavenly thunder strikes."

Huo Ling'er imdiately ground her teeth, "It should strike you!"

"Getting struck is healthier, I couldn't wish for more," Yu Yuan said nonchalantly.

Suddenly, a loud booming sound ca from the distance.

"Sobody is casting spells!"

Huo Ling'er imdiately beca alert, and instantly sent her Divine Thought towards the direction of the sound.

"Eh? Why is it them? Yu Yuan, look quick, it's Jin Shengyang and his group!"

Yu Yuan rely "oh"ed, showing no interest in checking.

However, Huo Ling'er, exhilarated, lightly pat the cal's hump and commanded the Golden-eyed Five Clouds Cal to move towards that direction.

As they got closer, even if Yu Yuan didn't want to pay attention, it beca difficult.

Under the night sky, Jin Shengyang and a group of seven were chasing an Earth Immortal and soon encircled him, trying to coerce and lure the other to hand over the treasures, the tactics identical to how they previously threatened Xuan Yang Zhenren and others. This content originates from *, My Virtual Library Empire.

Huo Ling'er imdiately frowned and irritably said, "These guys are embarrassing us out here again, ruining the reputation of Jie Sect! I knew I should have dealt with them harshly without rcy yesterday!"

After pausing and seeing no reaction from Yu Yuan, she stood up and said, "No, I can't watch them tarnish the na of Jie Sect!"

Just then, a thunderous voice exploded.

"It's you Jie Sect Immortals doing evil here again, are you disciples of a Saint, or just road bullies?"

Hearing this righteous call-out, Huo Ling'er couldn't help but let out a light "eh" and looked towards the source.

A white cloud floated over and ca near Jin Shengyang and the Jie Sect Immortals.

On the cloud stood seven or eight Immortal Gods of varying Dao strength, among them three figures looked particularly familiar.

Huo Ling'er, using the bright moonlight, took a close look and realized that these three were none other than Xuan Yang Zhenren and his two junior disciples who were bullied by Jin Shengyang's group the day before.

But the righteous scolding wasn't from them, instead, it was a burly and big-eyed robust young man.

He stood bravely in front of Xuan Yin Zhenren, his gaze scanning over Jin Shengyang and the seven Jie Sect Immortals, and said lightly, "I've long heard that Jie Sect disciples are all born from eggs, superficial in blessings...
