Chapter 113 - 113 Are you the reinforcements called in by monkeys?_i
Having obtained a wine pot and eight broken bowls from the various formations, I was now facing the last one. I hoped it wouldn’t be another broken bowl.
Though these broken bowls were extraordinary, capable of containing laws, it was quite embarrassing to show them.
To the unaware, they might seem like objects used for begging.
This final formation only spanned a little over a meter. As the formation was breached, a surge of time fluctuations suddenly emerged!
Without hesitation, Li Cheng activated the Time Law to envelop the three of them, defending against the time fluctuations.
Still, it was a bit too late as Feng Wanli and Ye Chenfeng’s auras both wilted simultaneously!
“How bizarre. Just a touch of the fluctuation made me feel as if I’ve aged,” Ye Chenfeng exclaimed in shock.
Feng Wanli wasn’t faring any better. His Dark Talisman Immortal Robe had failed to shield him from the fluctuations, and he felt the same sensation.
Thankfully, they were now protected by Li Cheng, which brought them some relief.
“It’s that arrow. The fluctuations it emitted have cut two hundred years off our lifespans, causing us to temporarily fall into a state of weakness!” Feng Wanli said, his eyes full of trepidation.
Li Cheng had already grasped two hundred Time Laws. Although he was also affected by the time fluctuations, he wasn’t impacted in the slightest.
Looking intently, he saw a human skeleton, merely sixty centimeters long, lying within the formation. At that moment, the skeleton was turning to ash, slowly scattering on the ground.
And in the chest of the skeleton, there was an arrow!
The arrow was entirely gray, its time fluctuations receding as the skeleton disintegrated.
“This must be an arrow refined from Universe Mystery Stone. It’s only a foot long though. What kind of bow could shoot it? It seems a bit short, doesn’t it?” said Feng Wanli.
Li Cheng shook his head, “This arrow can change its size, and it contains a vast amount of Arrow Path Rules and Time Rules. Capable of severing a person’s lifespan, it surely has an extraordinary origin!”
What Li Cheng didn’t mention was that this arrow, like the Void Snow Sword, was tinged with the aura of Space Law. And now the arrow bore the aura of Time Law.
Like the Void Snow Sword, it was an Immortal Artifact, a Rule Immortal Weapon!
Li Cheng wrapped his palm with the Time Law and slowly reached for the arrow.
“Why do I feel like you’re fishing? Do you need to be so cautious? This should be child’s play for you,” Feng Wanli remarked, unable to help himself upon seeing Li Cheng’s carefulness.
The arrow didn’t resist as Li Cheng picked it up, allowing him to refine it and claim ownership
Normally, once an Immortal Artifact is refined, all information about it appears in the owner’s mind. However, there was not a trace of information from this arrow!
“How is it? What kind of arrow is this?” asked Feng Wanli.
“The Arrow of Time!” Li Cheng offhandedly named it.
“Did you come up with that name just now?” Feng Wanli asked incredulously.
Li Cheng looked at Feng Wanli with suspicion, “How did you know? Is it that obvious?”
Feng Wanli’s mouth twitched, “It was just a wild guess, but it turns out to be true.”
“Anyway, it’s fitting. It shall be called the Arrow of Time.”
This arrow was not simple. Li Cheng thought that perhaps he should practice archery, or even better, master tens of thousands of Arrow Path Rules!
Moreover, it seemed necessary to obtain a bow—a bow to match the arrow, of course.
Preferably an Immortal Bow, a Rule Immortal Bow!
Getting a bow just for one arrow was indeed something else.
“Since you’ve named it, I’m sure you’re planning to get a bow, and it has to be an Immortal Bow!” Feng Wanli said again.
Li Cheng looked skeptically at Feng Wanli again. What was with today, Feng Wanli’s guesses were spot on!
“Ha, I knew it. But Li Cheng, let me remind you, with your Sword Dao being so powerful, why waste time mastering the Arrow Path?” Feng Wanli earnestly advised.
Li Cheng ignored Feng Wanli and turned to look at the entrance of the ruined city, “Weird, that must be the kid you were talking about?”
At the entrance, a seven or eight-year-old girl with a face as delicate as a carved jade was curiously staring this way, holding a twig and leaves in her hand!
Seeing the three men turn their gaze towards her, the little girl quickly held the leaves in front of her face.
It seemed to her that if she couldn’t see others, then they couldn’t see her.
Li Cheng and Ye Chenfeng wore smiles, amused by the girl’s actions, but Feng Wanli’s expression stiffened, gradually turning grave. He opened his mouth to speak, struggling to make a sound, as if someone had grabbed his throat!
Finally, Feng Wanli swallowed hard and exclaimed in astonishment, “One Leaf Blindness!”
“What are you screaming for? You scared the kid!” Li Cheng turned his head, annoyed, only to see Feng Wanli’s expression of shock.
Feng Wanli composed himself, “No, what I mean is, this little girl is using a Race Divine Skill called One Leaf Blindness!”
Li Cheng’s mouth twitched, using a twig and leaves to cover her face and calling it divine skills?
And a Race Divine Skill? Are you kidding me?
Seeing Li Cheng looking at him with disdain, Feng Wanli hurriedly said, “You can see her, right?”
Is that even a question?
A living, breathing little girl standing there, using leaves to cover her face, and she would be invisible?
“Try using your Immortal Sense!” Feng Wanli suggested again.
Unleashing his Immortal Sense, Li Cheng’s face immediately stiffened. Within the scope of his Immortal Sense, the little girl was nowhere to be seen!
But she was clearly right in front of him!
Visible to the naked eye but undetectable by Immortal Sense?
Strange!
“Nowyou understand? This is One Leaf Blindness, the Race Divine Skill!” Feng Wanli laughed, seemingly satisfied with the shift in Li Cheng’s expression.
Li Cheng couldn’t help but click his tongue in secret, admitting that this so- called One Leaf Blindness was too awesome!
The little girl only had the cultivation of the Golden Core Stage, but with just that twig and leaves, even his Immortal Sense failed to detect her!
“Can it be learned?” Ye Chenfeng asked eagerly.
“Race Divine Skills are heritage skills embedded in a race’s bloodline, without the corresponding bloodline, one simply cannot perform them!”
“However, some sages created Immortal Techniques with similar effects based on Race Divine Skills. The Wood Escape Technique, for example, was created based on One Leaf Blindness.”
Feng Wanli explained, his eyes lighting up as if he had a revelation, “I’ve got it, this little girl, she’s a Wood Spirit from the Five Elements Elf Tribe!”
Li Cheng looked at Feng Wanli in astonishment, there really were Elf Tribes?
Back when he was at the Artifact Sect, he had made up such a story, never expecting it to be true!
Looking at those small wings, hmm, pretty.
“She’s coming over!” Ye Chenfeng said, his voice filled with joy.
Smiles emerged on the faces of the three men, as if to say: Little sister, don’t be afraid, we are all good people…
The little girl stopped about ten meters away from them, tentatively and timidly speaking in a bell-like voice, “Excuse me, are you the reinforcements called by the monkey?”
Pfft…
Li Cheng nearly choked on his saliva; that comment…
“Yes, that’s right!” Ye Chenfeng hurriedly spoke up, his face full of a friendly smile.
Feng Wanli glanced at Ye Chenfeng and also nodded quickly, “Precisely!”
The muscles on Li Cheng’s face twitched, these two old guys, they weren’t being serious at all!
