Barrier of Light

Initial number.

Afu stared at the wavering flame in front of him.

Calculated in real world time.

It has been fifteen days since Gu Shen entered the "time turbulence". During these fifteen days, the flame has been stable, but just now, the flame suddenly trembled violently——

This is not a good sign.

If Gu Shen enters the "turbulent flow", the time multiplier is faster than the real world.

Then Afu receives the signal and needs to leave and react!

"Restricted, stop!"

Afu quickly stopped the time restriction, and a roaring and exploding sound immediately sounded.

In the void, a thin and childish figure slowly emerged.

The figure was wrapped in a ball of fire.

The skin on his body is full of wounds.

Between the eyebrows, there was also a pale bright red flame burning.

It looked like he was seriously injured.

"Gu Shen...are you okay?!"

Afu quickly opened the bronze hatch.

It studied the baby in front of it...

Fifteen days passed.

Gu Shen was still a baby, but now he landed on the initial number and could land smoothly.

"I'm fine."

The tender voice coming out of the baby's mouth at this moment made Afu stunned.

"Speaking? You can speak?!"

It looked at Gu Shen in disbelief and happily circled the little guy several times.

"..."

Gu Shen was silent for a while.

What is this word? He's not really three!

"How much time has passed in the real world?"

Gu Shen raised his eyes to look at Afu, and the first question he asked was the time in the real world.

"Fifteen days."

Afu said seriously: "Where are you?"

Gu Shen's flow power has been calculating the time passing in the void.

"One hundred and fifty days..."

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and murmured: "I'm lucky. The first time I entered the 'space-time turbulence', the tenfold magnification was triggered."

After the soul merges into the body.

The divine baby can develop normally. If there is no time and space turbulence to adjust the time magnification, it will take at least half a year before Gu Shen can barely speak.

This time is indeed a bit long.

"You are indeed lucky."

Afu smiled and said: "But the storm had better luck back then."

That time at the Ice Sea Ruins, the storm touched the turbulence of time and delayed it for six years!

And he only stayed in the ice sea for a week.

This is equivalent to triggering a "three hundred times" time multiplier!

"I don't know why, but I'm a little envious of the storm..."

Gu Shen smiled and teased.

But this is just a joke.

It may not be a good thing if such a high time multiplier is really triggered.

In the turbulent flow of time, it is too dangerous. If you want to protect yourself 100%, only the God Throne has this strength.

"After only half a year of staying in the turbulence of time, I can't bear it anymore."

Gu Shen couldn't help but sigh.

He raised his arms and looked at the scars all over his body.

The reason why the "Time Dojo" of the Grain Goddess is a creation across the ages is because there is no need to consider external interference when practicing in the dojo.

In the turbulent flow of time, there are countless murderous intentions hidden.

If you are not careful, you may be severely injured.

Even a top flow genius like Gu Shen can only dedicate two strands of flow power to practice... which can be said to be half the result with twice the effort.

This half year.

A wisp of the power of flow, understanding and smelting the fire of Pluto in the pure land.

Another ray of flow power is simulating how to pull out the hanging sword in the dream of the Lord of Love.

pity.

Half a year is still a bit short.

Neither of these two streams of flow power made any good progress.

The biggest gain from this "retreat" is that I can successfully speak... In any case, the body of the Divine Infant has grown for one hundred and fifty days, which is a real achievement.

If it does trigger a higher magnification.

In fact, the result is just like that.

Gu Shen's current physical strength can only carry it for so long. If it takes longer, something will happen.

"Do you need my treatment for these injuries you suffered?"

Afu said kindly: "There are many medical devices in the initial number."

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Gu Shen smiled and waved his hand, a wisp of vitality seeping out from between his eyebrows.

What he is least afraid of is getting hurt.

The damage caused by the turbulent flow of time is at best a "skin wound". Applying the fire of life casually can heal it in ten days and a half.

But the only regret is that no matter how fast the repair of the Fire of Life is, it still takes time.

During this period, it is inconvenient for Gu Shen to enter the turbulent flow again...

After all, his confidence in entering the turbulence was his own strength.

If you are injured, even if the high magnification is triggered, you will not be able to stay for long, and your life will be in danger.

"Where did the little sleeve go?"

Gu Shen looked around and saw that the initial number was empty.

"He's been gone for fifteen days."

Speaking of Baixiu, Afu's expression became worried and said, "I asked him to bring Gu Xiaoman back... I don't know how this matter will go."

The words just fell to the ground.

"drop!"

The sound of spiritual connection from the other side of the distant void suddenly sounded.

The Initium is anchored in the void of the northern fortress.

Leaving the East China Sea this time, Afu was determined to find the traces left by his master... It no longer avoided intersection with the civilizations of the five continents, so before Baixiu left, Afu transferred the "spiritual link authority" of the initial number to It was delivered into the hands of this young man.

Baixiu has a reassuring aura about her.

It believes that this young man will not betray its trust.

"It's Baixiu!"

Afu immediately connected, and a familiar face appeared on the projection screen.

"Afu——"

The face on the screen is young, green, and a little bit weathered.

But not white sleeves.

But Gu Xiaoman.

"Xiaoman!"

Afu's voice was pleasantly surprised. When he saw this face, he knew that Bai Xiu had successfully brought Gu Xiaoman out of Central Continent.

"Where's brother Gu Shen?"

Gu Xiaoman blinked and looked at the initial number on the other side of the screen. Master Baixiu told her that Gu Shen was now in the initial number. She couldn't wait to dial the link, but she didn't see Gu Shen.

"Gu Shen..."

Afu's expression was a little subtle.

It glanced at the baby.

Gu Shen's expression was complicated. He sighed softly and waved his hand, signaling Afu to turn the camera to his side. Sooner or later, Xiao Man would have to see him like this.

Then the perspective slowly shifted.

"Gu Shen...brother?"

Gu Xiaoman looked across the way expectantly, and then saw the child who was two times smaller than himself.

Isn't this the "little guy" who lived with him in Sangzhou Cave?

"it's me."

Gu Shen said helplessly: "This matter is a bit complicated to explain..."

…

…

After a while, Gu Shen told everything about the divine infant and what happened after the [Dream of Dreams] barrier was sealed.

Gu Xiaoman rubbed his eyebrows.

These things are indeed complicated...

It took her some time to come to terms with it.

"Is Little Sleeve okay now?"

Gu Shen spoke with concern.

I shouldn't have told Xiao Man these things. Since Bai Xiu went to Central Continent to save people, after the rescue was successful, Bai Xiu should tell him what happened after Cicada Wing City.

obviously.

This rescue trip did not go so smoothly.

"Master Bai Xiu... was injured and is recuperating."

Gu Xiaoman also changed his perspective.

Baixiu was lying on the hospital bed. He smiled at Afu Gu Shen, who was on the other side of the spiritual link, and smiled in a safe manner.

But this smile is really a bit bleak.

"White Sleeves had a fight with Lie Renault from Central Continent."

At this moment, a figure opened the door to the ward and walked in.

Lu Nanzhi placed a lamp seal on the bedside of Bai Xiu's hospital bed. The lamp emitted a soft glow, which was like a gentle rain, making people feel relaxed.

She whispered: "According to Lord Ziyu's instructions, you need a lot of 'meditation' during this period to recover from your injuries... Take a good rest, there are things outside, and us."

"……Um."

Little Sleeves responded gently, no longer trying to be stubborn.

He closed his eyes, but the mental connection was not broken.

"Don't worry about the existence of the 'Initial Number' being known to outsiders. Only a very few people know about this matter."

Lu Nanzhi came to the camera. She looked at Afu, carefully studying this AI creation left by ancient civilization, and said politely: "Little Shou is seriously injured. He only has so many waking hours every day." A few minutes... Because contacting you is of great importance, he transferred the 'link authority' not long ago. The Ancient Literature Society used some small means to take over this authority."

"...It doesn't matter."

The initial number has been exposed.

It is only a matter of time before it is known to the human world.

Afu knew about the existence of the Guwen Society and believed in Baixiu's character... The most important thing was that he also wanted to contact Xiaoman as soon as possible. The most important thing was to ensure his safety.

"Xiaoman has been picked up successfully. She is currently placed in Dadu District. She is safe."

Lu Nanzhi said softly: "Baixiu still needs to rest for the next few days. Once he regains some consciousness, I will arrange to send these two to the Initial Number."

"There's no rush these days."

Gu Shen asked with concern: "You said earlier that Bai Xiu suffered this injury during the battle with Lie Renault?"

Of course Gu Shen remembered Lie Renault's name.

This is the dean of Holy Cross College, a veteran powerhouse of the same generation as Gu Qilin, and can be regarded as a veteran transcendent in Central Continent.

Just being older doesn't mean being stronger.

Mr. Gu has passed his prime. After the big incident of the Cemetery God War... all the young titles in Nagano have actually surpassed him.

Lie Renault may not be as good as Mr. Gu Qilin.

Now Bai Xiu is at his peak, his strength can be seen in the entire five continents, and he is also the best among the titles.

How could this battle be so brutal?

"Lie Renault has understood the origin."

Lu Nanzhi said seriously: "This is the information sent back by Xiaoxiu... In the inland sea area east of the Rhine, he had a fierce battle with Lie Renault. Although he successfully rescued people, he was seriously injured."

"Origin? At Lie Renault's age, can he still understand the origin?!"

Gu Shen frowned.

He found this matter a bit bizarre.

Understanding the origin is a rare opportunity for extraordinary people.

In the past few years, Lie Renault has been going downhill. How could he suddenly realize the power of his origin? The origin is not the power of bad streets.

Or, a gift from the throne of God.

Or, they are like the three generals, with outstanding strength and great luck.

"It's a gift from [Deep Sea]."

Lu Nanzhi sighed and said: "Qinglong was caught in a bitter battle and had no time to distract, so he handed over the authority of the sky throne to [Deep Sea]. In order to deal with the upcoming Three Continent Alliance, [Deep Sea] is already inside Central Continent. Look for [Apostle] candidates and start spreading the original power."

Relying on gifts, you can obtain a small ray of original power in a very short period of time.

indeed.

This is also considered a "promotion".

But such "promotion" is ultimately powerless.

"No wonder, little sleeves can successfully save people..."

Gu Shen breathed a sigh of relief.

If Lie Renault really relied on his own strength to understand the origin, Bai Xiu's trip would have been very doomed.

“It’s not just about successfully rescuing people.”

Lu Nanzhi said: "It is said that Lie Renault was also seriously injured over there in Central Continent."

"Master Baixiu cut off that old guy's arm!"

Gu Xiaoman said fiercely: "Although Master Baixiu was injured, that guy must have been injured more seriously. He is probably still in seclusion to recuperate!"

That battle...

She didn't watch much.

After Bai Xiu stopped Lie Renault, the two top titles used their domains to cover an area of ​​the sea.

Bai Xiu wants to save people, Lie Renault wants to kill people.

The so-called key point in this game was, of course, Gu Xiaoman running away without looking back.

"Lie Renault."

Gu Shen silently wrote down the name.

It is a pity that it is not convenient for him to return to the continent now, otherwise the task of rescuing Xiao Man would be left to him.

Gu Shen would not take him seriously at all, relying on the origin given by the [Deep Sea] to barely complete the promotion.

Like Lieutenant Reno.

Come on, let him kill one! Come two, he will kill a pair!

"Xiao Gu."

Lu Nanzhi said softly: "Xiao Man is not the only one Baixiu rescued this time."

"Um?"

Gu Shen was slightly startled.

"The location of this battle is in the inner sea of ​​the Rhine City, which is the area where Ye Caroline is stationed..."

He quickly reacted and asked: "[Deep Sea] Wanted Guwen Society, Caroline Ye will definitely be affected. Is she still alive?"

"You guessed it right, she's still alive."

The lady smiled and said: "Little Sleeves rescued her, but this time, she was not the only one who was rescued... there are also others."

"besides?"

Gu Shen was stunned.

This time, he couldn't guess.

["Shangcheng decided to make a deal with the Church of Storms...\
