life spirit stones from himSeeing that the two were truly refusing, and that there was ghostly aura within this soul stone, if they really wanted it, he would have to devour the ghostly aura one by on...Within the realm of life and death, the countless waves of Huang Quan surrounding Jiang Yun had condensed into one figure after another, constantly emerging from Huang Quan. They transformed from aged to young, as if transitioning from death to rebirth!
Though these figures had stepped out of the underworld, they did not disappear. Instead, they all remained standing in the void, making this realm of life and death, which was only a thousand paces square, appear much more crowded.
Just as the last figure began to step forward, not only did all the waves vanish without a trace, but Huangquan returned to its former tranquility.
Even the once murky river water was now crystal clear!
Through the river, one can clearly see the ginger clouds within it!
At this moment, Jiang Yun's body remained as thin and frail as a withered tree, seemingly on the verge of death. However, his open eyes shone with an ethereal clarity, akin to the surrounding Netherworld itself.
And, there were ripples of light in her eyes, constantly rippling and swaying.
Finally, when the last person walked out of the underworld, the entire River Styx suddenly vibrated again, surging and swirling rapidly before shooting up into the sky like a giant water dragon.
And while it was circling, the two breaths of life and death, which eternally exist in this world of birth and death, were all absorbed into it.
When Huangquan reached its highest point, it suddenly plummeted, transforming into a waterfall that cascaded straight towards Jiang Yun's body.
Immersing into the body, Huang Quan entered silently without a trace. However, Jiang Yun's withered body gradually became full as it absorbed the water of Huang Quan.
And that head full of white hair, like ink being dyed, gradually turned black;
Those wrinkles, piled high on her face, seemed to be smoothed out by an invisible hand.
Even on his forehead, a mark was gradually forming!
Ginger Cloud, has become young again.
Just like this Huangquan water has a kind of magic, it can make people rejuvenate!
"This, is not the Yellow Springs, this is, the River of Time. It has reversed time!"
At the same time, that aged voice within Gingercloud's body couldn't help but sound again, brimming with a strong sense of surprise.
Time reversal!
Yes, the time on Jiang Yun's body reversed under the influence of this river of time!
If life is a road with no turning back, only heading towards death's inevitable end, then Ginger Cloud right now has forcefully reversed from the endpoint of this path of no return, back to his youthful days!
"This is a technique… no, it's already infinitely close to the Dao. And still time...Dao of Time!"
As for this mark, it is the seal of life!
After the aged voice spoke those words in a voice only he could hear, the translucent hand that had emerged from Jiang Yun's life fire finally retracted.
But at this moment, Jiang Yun's life fire had become half black and half white!
Or perhaps it can no longer be called a "life flame," but should rather be called half a life flame, half a hell fire!
Two completely different flames, representing life and death, burn fiercely!
"Click click click!"
Just then, from the surrounding void, a series of crisp cracking sounds suddenly rang out.
Clearly visible, cracks spread like a vine, wildly proliferating and covering the entire world of life and death in an instant.
At the same time, Ginger Cloud let out a long breath from her mouth, and a dazzling gleam flashed in her clear eyes.
Gingercloud, you're finally awake.
However, he didn't even look at the countless cracks that now permeated the realm of life and death. He only gazed deeply at the countless figures formed by the waters of Huangquan, which had yet to dissipate, a smile gradually spreading across his face.
Although these figures are all virtual, in Jiang Yun's eyes, they appear as if they were real, truly standing before him.
A moment passed, and Jiang Yun suddenly spoke to them in a low voice: "Within the Shan Hai Realm, there is a mountain and a sea. The mountain is Mangshan, and the sea is Jiehai. Both have become demonic."
"The mermaid's name is Hai Changsheng, which is Xueqing's father!"
"When I first heard this name, I thought it was a little funny. A sea monster, seeking immortality, named itself this"
But later I learned that he wasn't pursuing immortality for himself, but for his Dao companion to live forever.
“Back then, I couldn’t understand his way of thinking, but now, I get it!”
I don't wish for immortality for myself, but I do hope that all of you, every single person I care about, will achieve eternal life!
Therefore, today, I name this technique of mine, "Longevity!"
And this mark, it is the Mark of Immortality!
As his words fell, Jiang Yun reached out and pointed to his brow. The newly formed mark instantly vanished.
Then, with a flick of his sleeve, Jiang Yun made all the figures in front of him vanish. He then closed his eyes again.
As the aged voice spoke, within this realm of life and death, Jiang Yun had witnessed one after another of those he cared about fading away, becoming nothing. Even after seeing this countless times, he still could not fathom the laws governing death.
Because all he could think about was bringing them all back to life, restoring their youth, making them immortal.
In the face of death, he suddenly realized the law of life and even further comprehended the law of time. Combining it with the art of suffering from death, he truly created his first technique in his life!
That is, he just used a spell that turned him from old to young!
Although this is still magic, the aged voice believes it is no longer magic but something infinitely close to the Way.
Because this technique contains the breath of both life and death, as well as the laws of time and life, which are two of the most difficult laws to master, it subtly touches upon the edge of the Dao!
The reason why it is said to be infinitely close is because Ginger Cloud did not ask!
One has never asked about being able to wield Tao techniques, but it is impossible to wield Taoist principles, let alone create a new one.
Therefore, Jiang Yun could also be considered the first cultivator in history to create techniques that were almost indistinguishable from Taoist laws before even embarking on the path of seeking enlightenment!
Although Gingercloud has woken up, he still needs to organize his insights from these past few days, so that he can have a clearer grasp of the laws of life and time.
As for the cracks that crisscrossed the boundary between life and death, Jiang Yun didn't worry about them at all.
Because the boundary between life and death is a place where the realms of the living and the dead converge, it will not collapse.
The cracks... they were not caused by an external force. It was because of my own life fire, absorbing the two energies of life and death that had existed here for who knows how long, that they appeared.
And these two breaths will continue to flow in, and once they fill it, then these cracks will disappear.
But these two kinds of auras could no longer affect Jiang Yun.
Because his life force has been split in two, he can absorb both kinds of energy separately.
This can also be considered another huge gain for Jiang Yun besides his understanding of the laws of time and life.
Even with this realization, he already knew how to pass through the boundary between life and death, going to both the living world and the underworld!
Finally, Jiang Yun opened his eyes and stood up completely. The cracks around him had disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had ever happened. Only Jiang Yun's body was no longer changing in any way.
"With the breath of death, one can open the gate to the realm of the dead. With the breath of life, one can open the gate to the realm of the living!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun stretched out his hand. The intertwined breaths of life and death, which had reappeared and merged together, suddenly dispersed, transforming into two swirling vortex gates that stood before Jiang Yun.
On the left is the Gate of Life, leading to the realm of the living;
The right side is the gate of death, leading to the underworld!
Although Gingercloud had the impulse to step into the gate of death, wanting to see what the Netherworld was like, he didn't forget about the great competition held by Daozong. So he could only suppress his impulse and looked towards the Gate of Life instead.
But just as he was about to walk towards the Gate of Life, he suddenly changed direction and strode towards the Gate of Death!
