I kidnapped the timeline

Future city.

Science and Technology Research Institute Base.

Facing Mu Qing's extremely strong physical defense, Jiang Nanqiu looked solemn.

While he was drinking, the golden gem on his chest lit up.

Suddenly, the originally thin energy in the body suddenly filled up.

The originally blurry seven clones also recovered their energy at the same time, and continued to work with the main body to inject energy into the bloody illusory furnace, trying to refine Mu Qing alive.

But Mu Qing's performance really exceeded Jiang Nanqiu's expectations.

As the vague beast above Mu Qing gradually became clearer, Jiang Nanqiu felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

The coercion of the world came towards him, and he suddenly had an illusion.

He saw a mountain range formed by the piles of corpses of countless living beings, stretching for more than a few miles. The blood flowed down the corpse mountain, forming a bloody ocean around the corpse mountain.

Among the wreckage that made up the mountain of corpses, he saw giants as huge as mountains, majestic beasts that looked like dragons, demons burning with the flames of hell... Even though these creatures were dead, their corpses were still emitting terrifying energy fluctuations. As you can imagine, to the terrifying strength they possessed during their lifetime.

But even so, they are just one of the countless corpses that make up the mountain of corpses.

At the top of the corpse mountain stood a throne made of corpses. A blurry figure sat on the throne, and only a pair of eyes with scarlet light could be seen.

It calmly overlooks the world.

At this moment, the figure on the throne slowly turned his head and looked towards him, his sight seemed to have passed through the barrier between illusion and reality, the barrier between time and space.

boom!

The moment their eyes met, Jiang Nanqiu felt his head buzzing.

Countless twisted and weird symbols were instilled in his mind. Just by looking at him, he felt that his spiritual power began to rise and grow faster and faster, gradually approaching the edge of collapse.

If he continued to stare at each other, he felt that his consciousness would be completely exploded by the mysterious knowledge that was constantly being fed into him.

He braced himself at this moment, biting his tongue and trying to escape from the illusory mental scene.

At this time, fear grew in Jiang Nanqiu's heart.

Just by looking at the creature in the hallucination, his mental strength actually improved a lot, which was simply shocking.

At this time, he thought of what a former enemy said:

"You asked me what the strong men standing at the top look like? Sorry, I have never seen a real strong man, but I know that their power is beyond our knowledge. Maybe just feeling their existence, you will will be affected... They are like the glowing and hot sun, constantly radiating energy to the surroundings. If they are not suppressed deliberately, they will even cause the surrounding space to distort and collapse..."

Jiang Nanqiu disagreed with these words.

But at this time, he experienced it personally.

Just by looking at each other, many mysterious symbols appeared in its mind, and its spiritual power also improved greatly under the influence of this power.

But this kind of growth is fraught with risks.

These strange symbols seemed to be imprinted on his mind. As long as he tried to understand the meaning behind these symbols, his head would tingle and his emotions would fluctuate accordingly. It seemed that he would be at risk of losing control at any time.

It's like an ant trying to understand the amount of knowledge in a library, which is completely beyond his ability.

His mental state kept rising and falling, but Jiang Nanqiu still wasn't freed from the illusory mental scene.

Before the body collapses, the spirit has already withered first.

But Jiang Nanqiu did not choose to compromise. He chose to grit his teeth and persevere. At the same time, the five gems on his chest lit up at the same time.

While constantly resisting the erosion of mental power, past events appeared in my mind like a slideshow.

The memory returns to the starting point.

…

That year, it snowed heavily in the north for several months, and the whole world was covered in snow. The roads outside the city in the cold winter were completely covered with snow.

After graduating from Victory Academy with the highest overall score, he officially joined the "Five-Star Battle Group", one of the ten battle groups, and became a member of the third group.

It turns out that the front line is far more cruel than he imagined.

The frontline internship experience during school was followed and protected by a professional team, which was very different from real actual combat.

That period was also a period of rapid growth for him.

Many theoretical knowledge learned in the academy were transformed into practical skills in actual combat on the front line.

At that time, the Five-Star Battle Group was challenging a field with a disaster level of "Level 4", and the battle was very tragic.

This field is called the "Purgatory Field."

The strongest race among them is called the Purgatory race. They have a human-like form and are completely black. They generally master extremely terrifying physical training and combat skills, and are extremely keen on fighting.

Before entering the human world, the Purgatory tribe was divided into eight tribes.

Every year there are bloody battles between tribes, but unlike other races, the Purgatory tribe's internal fights are not for resources or profits, but only to select the strongest warriors.

The Purgatory tribe highly respects the strong.

Such is the custom of the clan that the warriors of the Purgatory clan are naturally aggressive.

During the battle against the Purgatory Domain, the Five-Star Battle Group suffered heavy losses in the face of the fierce attacks of the Purgatory Clan warriors, and even had a faint tendency to fall down from the top ten battle groups.

During this period, he followed the Third Five-Star Chapter into the Purgatory Field several times and almost died inside.

But his talent was also revealed during that time

During his fight against the Domain Clan, he was known as one of the top ten rookies in the Winter Region with his excellent record.

During that period, his achievements also attracted the attention of the Purgatory clan.

Especially the new generation members of the Purgatory Tribe saw him as a glorious prey and wanted to kill him with their own hands.

The turning point of fate occurred during an investigation into the purgatory field.

At that time, the Sixth Squadron of the Five-Star Third Regiment, which he belonged to, was besieged by the Purgatory Clan and suffered heavy losses in the battle. All the remaining warriors were captured alive, including him.

But the fierce and aggressive Purgatory clan did not kill them.

At that time, the Purgatory tribe dispersed, and a little boy covered in pitch black with a black gem embedded in his chest appeared in front of him and threatened to start a bloody fight with him.

This was his first encounter with "Soul Refining".

Only later did he learn that Lianhun was recognized as the strongest child among the youngest members of the Purgatory clan. It was only afterward that he realized that he was regarded as a prey for glory by members of the new generation of the Purgatory clan.

That soul-refining battle gave him an offer he couldn't refuse.

As long as it is defeated, all captured team members can survive.

In order to prove the credibility of this sentence, Lianhun put his hand on his forehead and swore to all the previous Lianhui warriors to prove that what he said was absolutely true.

Faced with the request for soul refining, he chose to agree without hesitation.

But the difficulty of this battle was beyond his imagination. Facing Lianhun, who was just a child, his arms were broken during the battle. In the end, he fought to the death and both Lianhun and Lianhun fell, ending in a draw.

When he woke up, he found that he was already in the hospital in the winter supply area.

Through the explanations of the medical staff, he learned that all his comrades had been killed. When the support team arrived, they only saw him who was unconscious and still alive.

At that moment, he was full of resentment towards Soul Refining.

As for why Lianhun didn't kill him, he had already guessed the answer.

It was like a provocation, not killing him to give him a chance for revenge.

Jiang Nanqiu accepted this challenge.

After his body recovered, he returned to the Five-Star Battle Group and joined the fight against the expansion of the Purgatory Field.

In the following years, he fought against the soul refiners several times in the purgatory field.

But Lianhun's growth rate is obviously faster than his, and the strength gap is widening at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This also aroused his competitive spirit.

From childhood to adulthood, he has been synonymous with the best.

Even in Shengli University, where there are many talents, he is recognized as the best freshman.

Now he is even more burdened with the blood feud of his dead comrades.

In order to defeat Soul Refining, he trained hard, tempered his body in the severe cold, and often consulted veterans of the battle group on combat skills to make up for his shortcomings.

With his efforts, the strength gap between him and Lianhun narrowed briefly.

During the constant battles, he also understood why Lianhun let him go in the first place.

Soul Refining said that it needs a whetstone, a whetstone that can inspire it to become stronger.

Obviously he is the sharpening stone that Lianhun deliberately cultivates.

Refining the soul is more urgent than him and he can become stronger. Only in this way can he inspire it to become stronger.

The dispersal operation of the purgatory field progressed slowly, and his battle with the refining soul lasted for three years.

Even though he tried his best to catch up, the gap in strength between him and Lianhun was still widening.

He clearly remembered what Lianhun said to him:

"Jiang Nanqiu, your talent is undoubtedly the strongest among the human warriors I have ever seen, but the lack of human training system has limited your growth. It's a pity that you are not from my Purgatory clan, otherwise you can use the growth of my Purgatory clan. It’s a pity that the system will grow rapidly..."

This sentence not only expresses his affirmation, but also points out the imperfection of the human cultivation system.

Compared with the field races that have a long history and constantly learn from mistakes and figure out growth paths, human beings started too late and developed in too short a time.

But he did not give up his pursuit of soul refining.

During that time, Jiang Nanqiu recalled what he had learned throughout his life, combined with his own weaknesses in the battle with soul refining, and developed a set of combat techniques specifically for soul refining.

This set of physical training combat skills is called "Purgatory Killing", and it is still included in the exercise database.

At that time, the expansion of the Purgatory Field was very crazy, and all major supply areas mobilized combat forces to the Winter Supply Area.

When the joint dispersal operation against the purgatory field was launched, Jiang Nanqiu also faced the soul refining again at that time.

No one came to disturb them in this battle.

During the battle, Lianhun, who no longer had any expectations for him, rekindled his fighting spirit in that battle.

But he still lost this battle.

Facing Lianhun, who became stronger with each battle and could grow rapidly in battle, he felt powerless in his heart more than once.

The gap in bloodline talent is real.

At the end of the battle, he fell into a coma, but humans were victorious in the joint operation.

He thought that Lianhun had also died in the battle, and that the years of fighting had finally come to an end.

But the regret in my heart has never faded away.

But only two years later, he met Lianhun again.

At that time, he left the Five-Star Battle Group and established the Beiming Battle Group with his own hands.

The encounter took place in a field, and he was leading the members of the Bei Ming Group to investigate the situation in that field.

But he didn't expect that he would encounter the soul refining who entered this field to plunder resources.

At that time, the refining souls had lost their clan’s domain and had become wandering transcendent creatures.

He still clearly remembered that Lianhun smiled and said to him, "You're fine."

He and Lianhun were like destined opponents, and they started fighting again without any surprise.

In the battle with Lianhun, he fought to the fullest.

The regrets in my heart also disappeared during the battle. I rehearsed them countless times in my mind and displayed all the combat skills specifically for soul refining.

But he still lost that battle.

But Lianhun didn't kill him, but told him with a smile:

"Jiang Nanqiu, you have not let me down. Keep getting stronger and we will meet again!"

From then on, Soul Refining followed him everywhere, and he would always meet him unexpectedly.

But Soul Refining is not friendly to him. Once his strength cannot keep up with his growth rate, Soul Refining's attitude will change drastically.

There was even one time when Lianhun angrily rebuked him that he was no longer worthy of being its whetstone, and planned to end him there.

Time flies, and he has lost count of how many times he has fought against Lianhun.

Lianhun and his tribe wandered in the no-man's land outside the Winter Supply Zone, plundering resources everywhere, but there was bound to be a fight whenever they met him.

Several arrest operations were launched against Soul Refining.

But they were all avoided by Soul Refining.

And his lifelong wish is to officially defeat a soul refining.

But for a while, Lianhun disappeared for five years

He suspected that Lianhun was dead.

But he did not relax his training, looking forward to one day refining the soul and returning to it, and then using his strength to defeat it openly.

The Beiming Chapter also developed better and better under his leadership.

Various honors come one after another, but for him, defeating Soul Refining is his obsession.

After more than five years of preparation, when Soul Refining appeared in front of him again, there was a golden gem on his chest.

He could clearly feel that the strength of Soul Refining had been greatly improved.

But when fighting him, Lianhun only used physical training and combat skills, and did not use any abilities other than combat skills.

He was completely defeated in this battle again.

But Lianhun was very satisfied with him, saying that he had broken through the limits of the human growth system, and perhaps one day in the future he would be completely enlightened and carve out a path of his own.

He listened to this.

Since the existing cultivation system limits his growth, he should create his own growth system path.

He began to study a large number of physical training books and absorb knowledge from them.

During this period, Soul Refining disappeared again for several years.

When the refining soul came back again, his whole body was covered with terrible scars, and there was a red gem on his chest.

The anticipated battle came as scheduled.

During the battle, he demonstrated everything he had learned over the years.

But in this battle, he clearly felt the exhaustion of soul refining, and he could no longer fight as full of fighting spirit as before.

After the battle, he fell to the ground with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

Lianhun sat next to him, correcting the mistakes he made during the battle as usual, as well as the direction for subsequent improvements.

In the next few years, soul refining will still appear from time to time.

His strength improved rapidly under the spur of soul refining, and the Beiming Battle Group was successfully promoted to an A-level battle group, heading towards an S-level battle group.

But every time he fought in the future, he found that Lianhun's condition seemed to be getting worse and worse.

Although its strength has obviously improved significantly, the passion for fighting in its heart seems to have been extinguished, and the high fighting spirit in its eyes no longer exists.

In the blink of an eye, Soul Refining disappeared for several years.

When he reappeared, the number of gems on Lianhun's body had become four.

In terms of pure physical strength, he was already far inferior to Soul Refiner. He could not even fight back against Soul Refiner, and was overwhelmingly suppressed in the battle.

After the battle, Lianhun did not kill him, but told him.

His whetstone has lost its value, and it will never come back again.

At this point, Lianhun disappeared from his life.

After more than ten years, Soul Refining never appeared.

But he did not give up on honing his combat skills, and always longed to fight against Lianhun again one day. This would also be his lifelong wish.

But Soul Refining never appeared again.

In the past ten years or so, the Beiming Battle Group has been promoted to the S-class battle group, and his name has also been recorded in history textbooks.

At the age of retirement, he did not leave the front line.

He is still waiting.

Looking forward to meeting our old enemy again.

When he was eighty years old, he received a lifetime honorary certificate from the United Institute. It was also on that day that he received a letter.

This letter appeared quietly in his room, and no one noticed it in the heavily guarded battle group station.

Opening the letter, there was no text, just a flaming symbol and a map.

There is also a red dot marked on the map.

The moment he picked up the letter, a fierce fighting spirit ignited in his eyes.

He knew that Soul Refiner was back.

He has been waiting for this day for more than ten years, and now he finally got his wish.

He wrote a suicide note on this day, put it in a drawer, and then left the winter supply area alone in the wind and snow, and came to the snowy cliff marked on the map.

There he saw Lianhun again.

At this time, Lianhun was still young, with surging life fluctuations emanating from his body.

Looking into each other's eyes, Lianhun smiled and said:

"Jiang Nanqiu, you are old. As expected, life span is the biggest obstacle to the growth of you humans...can you still fight?"

Facing Lianhun's inquiry, he said without hesitation:

"able!"

Seeing his destined opponent appear again, Jiang Nanqiu was ready to die in this battle, and he wanted to try his best to try again.

The cold current was mixed with wind and snow, and the two figures fought together again.

The already sluggish body exploded with strength beyond its limit in the battle, and the high fighting spirit stunned the soul refining.

He thought he would lose this battle.

After all, Lianhun's growth rate was so fast that he could no longer keep up.

Even if he refines his soul and condenses his fighting power and only uses physical skills to fight against him, he is still difficult to resist.

But what he didn't expect was that Lianhun's body had aged rapidly during this battle. His black hair was gradually covered with white, a frown appeared on his face, and even the vitality in his eyes was quickly fading away.

At the end of the battle, he stopped.

Facing Lianhun, who was panting and unable to fight anymore, he asked what the reason was.

Lianhun did not answer this question, but asked him with a smile:

"Jiang Nanqiu, have you ever thought about truly breaking through racial restrictions and gaining the qualifications to become a truly strong person!"

He was surprised when he heard these words and asked Lianhun what a real strong person was.

Lianhun gave him a very mysterious-sounding answer.

It is a kind of life that transcends the rules of nature and is superior to all things. It can cover the sky with a snap of its fingers, break the universe with a single thought, and whatever it thinks becomes true.

At that time, he did not understand what Lianhun meant when he said these words.

But Lianhun's next move stunned him.

He saw Lianhun reach out and pull off a bloody gem from his chest, and then the second one...

While his vitality was declining rapidly, Lianhun smiled and told him:

"Jiang Nanqiu, I am very satisfied with the high fighting spirit you showed just now. I lost this battle, defeated at the spiritual level... The vitality in my body has almost been exhausted, and all my people have died in the battle. This inheritance is I’ll leave it to you.”

Facing the last instructions of soul refining, he was filled with confusion.

When he asked what happened, Lianhun smiled and replied:

"I bet with others on the future. Unfortunately, I lost everything in the end, but they can't get any benefits from me... I leave this miraculous item to you, and continue to walk with high and undying fighting spirit."

When Lianhun pulled off the fifth gem from his chest, he told him in a daze:

"By the way... The biggest enemy of you humans at this stage is not an external threat, but a threat from within. The forces that brought me to this end are rooted within you humans... You kid can choose to retreat. In the future, it will not be a last resort. Don’t expose yourself to possessing this power... This thing is a pass to becoming the strongest, but it will also bring you endless disasters.”

Faced with his questioning, Lianhun shook his head and said nothing.

Before running out of life, Lianhun stuffed five bloody gems into his hands one after another:

"Jiang Nanqiu, you won the last battle with me... Promise me not to lose again from now on, and carry on with my fighting spirit. You only deserve to lose to me!"

Lianhun almost shouted this last sentence.

The wind and snow slapped Lianhun's face, and then he suddenly saw the immature child.

"Jiang Nanqiu, from today on you will be my grindstone for soul refining!"

"Jiang Nanqiu, stand up for me, ignite your fighting spirit and continue fighting with me!"

"Jiang Nanqiu, you loser, why did I choose you to be my whetstone back then? If you still can't satisfy me next time, you can die!"

"Hahaha, Jiang Nanqiu, continue to maintain this improvement and keep up with my pace!"

…

Time flies, and decades are just a snap of the fingers.

Looking back on the past, it’s like a dream

Later, he inherited the inheritance of soul refining and inlaid five gems on his body.

I also remember that Lianhun said that this power must not be exposed unless absolutely necessary, otherwise it will bring disaster, and he cannot maintain this inheritance with his strength.

Therefore, he chose to resign as the leader of Beiming Regiment on the grounds that his old illness had recurred, stopped participating in frontline battles, and returned to Victory City.

Thinking of what Lianhun said, the biggest hidden danger for mankind at this stage is internal, not external.

He suspected that there were domain forces lurking in human society, and he began to travel around major cities in the name of giving speeches, searching for clues.

During this period, he discovered that the soul-refining consciousness still remained in the five gems.

This consciousness is like a flame imprinted in his body, always spurring him to maintain high morale.

…

While his thoughts were in a trance, Jiang Nanqiu came back to his senses.

He looked up overhead.

The ferocious black figure hovering above also opened its eyes at this time.

As their eyes met, he thought of Lianhun's last words before his death:

"Jiang Nanqiu, you won the last battle with me... Promise me not to lose again from now on, and carry on with my fighting spirit. You only deserve to lose to me!"

The raging fighting spirit burns and pierces the illusory spiritual scene.

His body was once again covered in pitch black, and surging vitality surged within him.

At this moment, Mu Qing also broke away from the bloody illusory cauldron and punched him fiercely.

Jiang Nanqiu also punched at this time.

boom!

The terrifying pressure swept around them with the center at the center. Jiang Nanqiu's body exploded in an instant, but then gathered together again and punched Mu Qing again.

In the exchange of punch after punch, Jiang Nanqiu's momentum increased steadily.

The war between Star City and Future City is still going on, and human soldiers are dying every minute because of the behind-the-scenes manipulation of the creatures lurking in these fields. He is eager for a quick victory.

This was one of the reasons why he didn't want to waste time listening to Feng Qi's explanation.

There are lurking forces in human society, and he has long known about them.

As the fighting spirit continued to rise, the five gems on Jiang Nanqiu's body shone simultaneously.

boom!

After fighting again, Jiang Nanqiu's shattered flesh and blood instantly gathered toward the center, and returned to its original state in the blink of an eye.

The will to fight will never die, and I won’t die!

Fighting punch after punch, even if every punch was defeated, Jiang Nanqiu was still able to continue punching with all his strength, and his momentum never faded.

The pitch-black monster hovering above his head also grew more ferocious as Jiang Nanqiu's fighting spirit increased.

At this time, Feng Qi, who was watching the match on the field, was dumbfounded.

He never expected Jiang Nanqiu to have such terrifying combat power.

"He's dying." At this moment, the black shadow hovering next to him suddenly said.

"Why?"

"Although he possesses a miraculous item, his lifespan has not been improved. So what if it is reorganized hundreds of millions of times when his lifespan is exhausted? His lifespan is about to end and there is no way to save it."

Feng Qi understood Heiying's explanation.

Although the five gems gave Jiang Nanqiu extremely strong combat power, this miraculous item did not improve Jiang Nanqiu's strength after all.

No matter how strong you are, you will eventually die when your lifespan reaches the end.

After all, miracle items are different from cultivation techniques, and the improvements they bring are not all-round.

"Lifespan has always been a weak point that limits human growth. This race does not have a long accumulation of bloodline growth. Even if it has huge creativity, the time it has been exposed to cultivation is still too short." Black Shadow shook his head at this time.

After hearing these words, Feng Qi did not answer, and his eyes returned to Jiang Nanqiu.

Just as Heiying said, beneath Jiang Nanqiu's high-spirited fighting spirit, his body seemed to be declining rapidly.

The wrinkles on his face are increasing, and the white hair on his head is slowly falling off... All this proves that Jiang Nanqiu's body is already in its twilight years.

boom!

After another fist fight, Jiang Nanqiu's body exploded again.

When the bodies were reunited, Jiang Nanqiu once again assumed a punching posture, but the punch was not thrown for a long time.

"I'm sorry... I still lost."

As he murmured, Jiang Nanqiu's eyes were gradually covered with grayish white.

The dark and ferocious figure hovering above his head gradually merged with his body.

The breeze blows, and the white hair falls off with the wind.

The vitality in his body was completely exhausted at this time, and the five gems on his chest were extinguished.

Losing the sense of killing intent, Mu Qing suddenly stopped punching her fists, and the scarlet light in her eyes gradually faded away at this time.

Looking at Jiang Nanqiu, who was standing in front of her with a fist-waving gesture, Mu Qing had a complicated expression.

She could feel that the fighting spirit in Jiang Nanqiu's heart came from his love for human beings.

But the advancement of this battle line cannot be hindered in any way.

"Perhaps we will be comrades in the next battle line!"

Waving her hand to close Jiang Nanqiu's open eyes, she took a deep breath and turned to look at the domain warriors who were shouting and rushing towards her from all directions.

The jade-colored light once again enveloped the whole body.

Thanks to the Monster Commander for the 1,500 starting coins.
