Chapter 9 Worldlines

"Interesting, what's interesting?"

Li followed Ning Luo's gaze, but what he saw was nothing but stars.

Ning Luo turned his head and looked around, seeing that no one else noticed what he was talking to himself, he was slightly relieved.

He chopped off a large piece of wolf leg meat, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just think it's interesting to look at the night sky."

Li was stunned for a while, then nodded: "The stars are really useful, otherwise it would be easy to get lost in the mountains."

Ning Luo smiled without saying a word.

After eating and drinking enough, Ning Luo sat alone on the top of the mountain, resting his chin in thought.

"The feeling of being spied on just now is a bit familiar."

He recalled the strange feeling of spying around him when he was slaughtering a wolf at the age of four.

At that time Ning Luo thought that the accomplice of the fierce wolf was after him, so he retreated cautiously.

Now it seems that it is probably because of the strange feeling brought about by being locked by the "lens".

After all, he was a little socially afraid, and he was extremely sensitive to unfamiliar sights, so he was overly wary at that time, leading to a misjudgment and escape.

However, Ning Luo knew nothing about the reaction of the audience outside the arena.

In fact, the audience's inferences are mixed.

As they guessed, Ning Luo had indeed integrated into the deserted village.

But in fact, he never forgot the mission of time travel, or the conditions for winning or losing the competition.

Although this was Ning Luo's first time travelling, he still crammed and did his homework before the competition.

At least Ning Luo remembered the main plot of [Shushan Defense War].

In the 4th, 11th, and 18th years, the three sessions invited Xian Dianyi.

In the 15th year, Shushan Xianjian will be held.

The 16th year of experience in the world of mortals.

In the 19th year, the master Xu Songyuan died of illness.

And finally the 20th year of the Devil's Cult attacking the mountain.

Knowing is knowing, but Ning Luo has limited understanding of the specific situation of the competition.

In 20 years, Ning Luo has no idea what Fang Ao can do.

But he knew that it was impossible for him to travel thousands of miles to Shushan when he was 4 years old.

Therefore, if Ning Luo wants to start the Shushan road, it will take 11 years at the earliest, and this start is too slow.

Therefore, he will not go to Shushan.

If Ning Luo wants to win, the only thing he can do is to continuously improve his strength during these 20 years, and then try...

Change the world line!
Theoretically, the time for the Demon Cult to attack the mountain will be set in the 20th year.

It's not that the players didn't want to shake this time point in the past, but the ending was all in vain.

From the perspective of the world line theory, a timeline can extend into countless branches, but countless timelines will always have a converging node.

To put it simply, although there are countless possibilities for the development of this world, there is also an established future that is difficult to change.

And these established futures that are difficult to change are called "mainline events" by the traversers.

The same is true for inviting immortals to perform rituals, martial arts with swords, experience in the world of mortals, the death of the sect leader, and the final attack on the mountain by the demon sect.

Therefore, the 20-year ending is the consensus of all traversers.

But Ning Luo didn't think so.

According to the known information, it can be concluded that the Hundred Thousand Mountains is a natural moat separating Zhongzhou and Southern Xinjiang.Since it is impossible for the Devil's Cult to enter the Central Plains openly and aboveboard, they will inevitably sneak into Zhongzhou through the barren mountains.

Ning Luo knew that since the Shushan dungeon was released nearly a year ago, at least Yongcheng had never had any rumors of successfully switching the world line.

So he didn't prepare any exaggerated plans.

After all, this is his first time travelling, so keep it simple and stop at the end.

"Be safe first, and wipe them out on the Demon Cult's road to attack the mountain!"

Fortunately, the projection cannot read the voice of the heart, otherwise, if Ning Luo's thoughts were heard by the audience, they would have to laugh until they had a heart attack.

If the world line was so easy to move, who would honestly go to Mount Shu to practice and be slaughtered?
But Ning Luo has his own strategy.

deserted village.

The dusk is dim, and the surrounding fields are vast.

The swaying bonfire mixed with the sound of crackling dry firewood added some warmth to this cold long night.

In the past, barren villages did not dare to sing and dance late at night, and even did not dare to light too many torches.

But since Ning Luo hunted back the beast, everything changed.

The head of the wolf hanging on the head of the village is enough to drive off the invading beasts.

And the ferocious beasts of the barren mountain seldom go down the mountain, and even seldom move near the outskirts of the mountain forest, so under the deterrence of the wolf head, the barren village is much more peaceful.

After Ning Luo sorted out his future plans, he stood up and shouted in as loud a voice as possible: "Li! I've discovered something new about the energy and blood technique I told you about last time."

"So fast?!" Li Xing rushed over and said with a silly smile, "Hey, then I have to ask for advice!"

Are the residents of the barren village considered NPCs?

Ning Luo didn't know, and didn't care.

Although in this world, no matter the plants, trees, insects, beasts, the morning sun, the moon, or even the shifting stars... nothing can feel the slightest emptiness.

If it wasn't for the fact that 1 day equals 24 hours equals 1440 minutes, Ning Luo even thought this was a real world.

But it doesn't matter if it's true or not.

Ning Luo only knows one thing, that if a traveler can obtain knowledge and exercises from the Dust Realm, he can also grant them in reverse.

Anyway, the technique was created by him, and he didn't lose anything by granting it to the hunter.

Then why not?
Li Xiao ran to Ning Luo, and when he gritted his teeth, strands of blood gushed out from his body.

"How is it? I can release my qi and blood now, can I pass the test?"

"is acceptable."

Ning Luo smiled slightly, his praise was sincere, because Li's energy and blood were much stronger than other hunters after all.

Li Hao shook his arms angrily, eager to try: "Then tell me quickly, what new tricks do you have?"

"It's just two small techniques for using qi and blood. One can gather qi and blood to a certain part of the body to locally strengthen the physical body."

"Another trick can achieve the effect of double overlapping strength by delaying the burst of Qi and blood."

As Ning Luo said, a thick blood gushed out of his body in an instant, and then turned into a dense blood mist that lingered around his body.

He ignored the astonished Li beside him, but knelt down on one knee, pressed his right fist against the huge rock under him, and said in a low voice, "Look out."

As soon as the words fell, the blood mist covered Ning Luo's right arm, and then sank into his fist.

When the blood mist disappeared, the veins on the back of Ning Luo's hands popped up, and his wrist suddenly exerted force!
Li didn't know what happened, he only saw Ning Luo's body trembling suddenly as if twitching.

Then Ning Luo jumped and staggered down the rock.

Li stared at Ning Luo in a daze, and said dumbly, "What's the matter..."

click!
However, before Li finished asking, the rocks under his feet suddenly collapsed!
The gigantic boulder, which was more than ten feet high, collapsed in an instant, and then shattered to the ground, and the square inch of the land was full of mess.

In the ruins, Li pushed aside the gravel in disgrace, spit out a mouthful of marl, and looked at Ning Luo in bewilderment.

This punch seems to be a little bit stronger?
……

Due to the rules of projection, the scene of the deserted village is not glimpsed by the audience.

When time speeds up again, 7 years have passed, and Qianyue, as usual, begins to make a phased summary.

"As you can see, one-third of the game is now in progress, and the situation is gradually becoming clearer."

"Contestant Fang Ao has already climbed Mount Shu and learned the method of drinking qi. The rhythm is quite fast."

"It's a pity for player Ning Luo. Although he had an amazing performance in the fourth year, he didn't make much noise after that."

"Of course, the process of crossing cannot be smooth sailing. There are still more than ten years to go. During this period, anything can happen."

"Whether player Fang Ao continues to lead the rhythm, or player Ning Luo starts his desperate counterattack, let us wait and see!"

Both the auditorium and the barrage sniffed.

It's not that he looks down on Ning Luo, but simply despises the commentary's lines.

Regardless of whether it was a cliché or not, at least in their opinion, Ning Luo might not find hope of a comeback.

With a 7-year rhythm gap, even if a passer-by is given such a big advantage, he may win against a professional player.

What's more, Fang Ao is still an old traveler with more than 500 experiences, so how could he give Ning Luo a chance to make a comeback?
Ning Luo has the luck to trigger the hidden event, but he doesn't have the ability to control the overall situation.

But Fang Ao fought steadily, and the victory was already in his hands.

Time gradually slowed down.

8th year.

There is no shot of Fang Ao this time, so he is probably practicing.

But Ning Luo was on camera for a moment.

Ning Luo in the light curtain, as usual, dragged a wolf corpse back to the deserted village.

But different from before, this time he has an extra teammate behind him, that is the strongest hunter in the deserted village, Li.

9th year.

This year, there is still no footage of Fang Ao.

The audience is all too familiar with this, which shows that Fang Ao has already won the favor of Shushan high-level officials, and he should be practicing some kind of high-ranking skills.

And Ning Luo in the light curtain still dragged a wolf corpse.

If it wasn't for the addition of another hunter behind him, the audience would probably think that the system was fooling them with pictures from previous years.

10th year.

Fang Ao, go out!
In the picture, Fang Ao is stepping on a long sword, traveling through the sea of ​​clouds!
That is the art of controlling the sword.

The audience are all time travelers, and they naturally understand that the skill of controlling the sword can only be learned by practicing to the Qi Transformation Realm.

The practice in the dusty world is divided into six realms: gathering gas, condensing gas, transforming gas, gathering yuan, building yuan, and agility. There are also realms above it, but that has nothing to do with the Shushan dungeon.

When the cultivation base reaches the level of energy transformation, the aura of heaven and earth will be like an arm and a finger.

Supplemented with Shushan's Sword Control Jue, monks can control the wind and walk on the sword.

It was the 7th year when Fang Ao practiced the Qi-drinking Jue, and the Qi-drinking Jue corresponds to the process from the first level to the second level.

In just three years, Fang Ao broke through to the third realm again.

At this moment, the audience finally abandoned Ning Luo, and turned their attention to Fang Ao.

"Going up the mountain for four years, drinking qi for seven years, and controlling the sword for ten years, Fang Ao's rhythm is amazing!"

"It's more than a unique skill, it must have been extraordinary."

"That's right, look at the records on the street fight list, which one of us in Dayong City can surpass him?"

"Hey, what kind of pheasant records, street fighting records can also be counted? Which professional player did you see draw cards in street fighting? The real skills are reserved for the competition!"

"Then you're Fang Ao and you're going to give it your all? This is only the group stage, so they won't hold back?"

"As long as your elder brother is capable, only your elder brother will hide his clumsiness, right?"

The audience is quite normal, but the live barrage is full of noise. Even if the experience mask is turned on, you can see many people responding to the trolls in vain.

Obviously there are quite a few people fighting the fire, after all, the organizer also wants to make money.

Seeing this, Qianyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Scolding, scolding, as long as there is heat.

Anyway, it's none of my business, it's better than being dead, at least the salary is kept.

As for Ning Luo who flashed past in a hurry, no one cared about it at all, and no one talked about it.

Because Ning Luo led the hunting team as usual, the ferocious wolves in the barren mountains were almost extinct.

It's just that few people noticed that in the last flashing scene, there were many more hunters following Ning Luo.

It seems that some subtle changes have taken place in the deserted village.
