Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#913 - The River of Time

"Really? Then my old man will really come looking for me on his own?"

Hearing Liang Yue's words, a light immediately sparkled in Feng Baobao's clear eyes, and a ripple of joy appeared in her usually calm emotions.

"This is your destiny, driven by the general trend. In this era of spiritual resurgence, some people who were originally hidden in the shadows will also emerge one after another.

If it were the previous era of Dharma decline, your abilities wouldn't matter much, and your instincts would be enough. But now, in the world of异人, almost everyone is competing.

They are constantly innovating, researching higher-level cultivation methods, and striving for higher realms. An anomaly like you, an immortal, will inevitably be coveted by some.

So, you should also take some time to sort out your cultivation and strive to break through as soon as possible."

Liang Yue looked at the 炁 within Feng Baobao's body, which was almost constantly moving on its own, abundant in quantity, but still somewhat ignorant and unable to achieve sublimation. He took a sip of spiritual tea and said unhurriedly.

"Um, Lao Si and the others will help me with cultivation matters, so there's nothing to worry about. So, about my dad, he will definitely come looking for me afterward, right?"

Feng Baobao reached out and took a spiritual peach from Teacher Shizuka, wiped it on her clothes subconsciously, took a big bite, chewed hard, and looked at him.

"Yes, although your dad hasn't been by your side all these years, he should still be concerned about your safety."

"Then do you know why he left me alone back then? And why hasn't he shown up for so many years?"

"......You should see that for yourself."

Although Liang Yue, as an outsider, had never interacted with Wugensheng, who had made a name for himself at a certain stage, he could roughly guess the other party's thoughts through his actions and some rumored stories.

In the end, this Wugensheng should be the same kind of person as Liang Yue.

That is~ wanting to seize any resources around him, make use of them, and then continue walking on the path of异人 cultivation.

The only difference between the two is that Liang Yue is lucky enough to have a powerful mother by his side, and he himself has obtained a system that allows him to freely go to places that ordinary people cannot reach.

As for Wugensheng, he can only gather a group of like-minded cultivators and experiment on his daughter to verify his immortality conjecture.

But when it comes to some specific people and things about him, Liang Yue really has no interest.

However, he felt a sense of pity for Feng Baobao, and since he had nothing to do right now, he didn't mind helping her.

So, as Liang Yue's words fell, the clear sky and beautiful scenery of the thatched cottage suddenly spun around.

The original real world became completely blurred after a moment of恍惚!

Everyone around the gazebo felt as if they had disappeared from the familiar world and appeared on a vast and boundless land.

Under their feet was gray soil and gravel, and the sky and the end of their vision were filled with gray mist, silent and still.

Only in front of them, a seemingly boundless river was flowing slowly, sparkling, and endlessly, with a faint mist rising from the vast river surface.

But the strange thing was that they could not hear any sound from the nearby river.

Looking at the slow-flowing water in front of them, even if their gaze lingered on a tiny ripple for half a second, they would immediately feel dizzy.

As if in the next moment, they would fall headfirst into the river!

Fortunately, Liang Yue, Teacher Shizuka, Hinata, and others were there, promptly opening an invisible field to block the natural mysteries of the river from the outside world.

"This is the River of Time. Through it, you can see anything that has happened to you in the past, but you can only watch, not interfere. And it's useless to see too much about the future."

Liang Yue stood up from his seat, holding a teacup, leaning against the pillar of the gazebo, and looking at the crowd in front of him unhurriedly.

Yes, this guy not only brought everyone to the River of Time in the DC world, but even materialized the gazebo by his thatched cottage.

For example, in the Shrouding the Heavens world, those Great Emperors who have mastered the Heavenly Heart Imprint, and even higher-level Red Dust Immortals, can basically bring people to observe the River of Time at will.

But it is not easy for those cultivators below the Great Emperor realm to do this, and it is even more difficult to manipulate the people and things in the river.

In the more advanced Perfect World, ascending to the River of Time and viewing the history of the past seems to have become a casual supernatural power of some powerful figures.

Some with extremely high realms can even attack the target across billions of years, forcibly crossing the timeline to interfere with past or future events, and so on.

Liang Yue is naturally not comparable to those characters now.

Fortunately, this DC world is not a place with strict rules and regulations, and he is qualified to come and play under the level of immortals~

Moreover, compared to those who reverse the timeline at every turn, arbitrarily draw a new river on one side of this river, and open another parallel world, Liang Yue is now like this.

It's much more gentle and harmonious to just bring people over to watch, find and confirm the situation of past events.

After a while, probably only a little more than ten minutes, Feng Baobao raised her head contentedly. After learning about some of her past, the little girl had once again returned to her previous clear and calm appearance.

The disciples next to her, on the other hand, looked somewhat preoccupied, not knowing what they had seen in the river.

On the other hand, Liang Yue, Teacher Shizuka, Hinata, and the clone have never been interested in peeking at the historical scenes of the past and present through the River of Time.

After all, for people like them, history is only an occasional seasoning to be savored, and the future is something they need to create and carve out with their own hands.

This mere River of Time in the DC world can only reflect some of the scenes that have happened to them in this plane.

And as long as they intervene slightly, some thoughts and ideas change, the future will immediately undergo earth-shaking changes.

Liang Yue and his group are no longer the fish and shrimp in this river, and there is no need to be sentimental about the ephemeral illusions in it.

However, Diana, who was still趴着 on the table, might be interested in her future, but she was still humming and digesting the knowledge and information that came with the village resident quota~
