Chapter 173 Time is an illusion of perception
Old man Xu's eyelids jumped at the looks from Ji Xun and the others.
The old man obviously hadn't realized that he was completely unaffected by the strange time realm on the train.
But the hunter just now was wiped out in front of his eyes, and he didn't want to take the chance.
This guy's shrewd little eyes were full of vigilance, and he said evasively: "Hey, hey, hey, Ji Xun, boy, I'm telling you, don't make any plans for me. My old bones can't stand the torture."
Ji Xun chuckled and shook his head. He had long been accustomed to the old man's rhetoric and interrupted: "Senior, you don't need to take any risks. The conductor will be here in a while. Please help us ask how to get off the train. alright."
His tone was calm.
It was as if the white hairs sprouting out one after another on his head did not make him feel the urgency of his fleeting life at all.
But in order to make Mr. Xu feel that time was pressing, he also added: "Of course, before that, if we are not dead yet."
Catalina on the side heard this and completely understood what she was talking about.
In areas with rule-based disasters, you usually need to break the corresponding rules to leave.
But in the field formed by high-level laws such as the "Law of Time", few people currently have any ideas to crack it.
But luckily, there is a special person in their team.
Old Man Xu seems not to be affected by the time realm, and he can also talk directly to the conductor.
There is actually a clever solution here.
As Ji Xun said, Old Man Xu could get the answer on how to get off the train directly from the conductor.
Thinking of this, Catalina also secretly sighed that her "fate" was good, and she met this senior colleague.
Otherwise, you might really get stuck here.
But the plan is wonderful.
If a certain old man doesn't lose his temper, it is most likely feasible.
but.
When Old Man Xu heard this, his eyes turned again and again, as if he was weighing the risks, but as if he thought of something, his face turned into worry.
Che Er reminded: "Grandpa?"
Old Man Xu didn't hide it, and said truthfully with a grimace: "It's okay to ask. But how should I ask? I don't know what it said."
"."
As soon as these words came out, it was like pressing the pause button.
The expressions of the three people sitting together were frozen on the spot.
But after a moment, Ji Xun chuckled to himself.
I almost forgot that this old man wouldn't be able to remember those skills if he hadn't encountered a certain death situation.
He had unconsciously understood the Tarung language before, but now he couldn't speak it.
Old man Xu himself seemed to feel that he couldn't help. He was a little embarrassed and looked at Ji Xun with a questioning look: What should we do now?
An almost guaranteed life-saving plan was rejected, but Ji Xun didn't show much disappointment.
After all, I haven't reached the point of death yet, so I can figure out how to use this method later.
Instead, he smiled easily: "Well, it won't happen. I originally thought that something was missing when we got off the car like this."
Hearing this, Catalina frowned slightly, becoming more and more confused.
Can this guy still laugh now?
However, she thought about it and said to herself: "What are the shortcomings?"
Ji Xundao: "I have been thinking about a question, and that is the meaning of the existence of this [Netherworld Train]."
When he thought of something, he said directly: "It is a ferry vehicle that takes people to Xia Mu City. It is neutral in itself, but it has an invisible time domain for killing people. So the meaning of its existence seems more like a kind of screening." Only by screening some qualified people can we reach our destination.”
"Ah."
Catalina nodded and felt it made sense.
But what does this have to do with their current situation?
What Ji Xun saw was not the dilemma on the car, but the place called Xia Mucheng, and said: "So I think if we can't even crack the field on this car, even if we reach the end, we will encounter something more serious. A tough question. Although this secret realm is not an extra-dimensional space, it seems to have been deliberately left by some great powers in ancient times."
If it's just a seal, just create some fatal traps.
Now that we have created this ghost car that is not destined to die, but is very special.
Then there must be other deep meanings.
It's just that he hasn't figured it out yet.
Catalina asked with some anticipation: "Do you have an idea?"
Ji Xun shook his head and said calmly: "No."
"."
Catalina rolled her eyes at him.
No?
How can you still laugh?
Just by looking at the past moment, she realized that she had never seen any panic and despair in a desperate situation on Ji Xun's face.
This gave her a very strange feeling: Isn't this guy afraid?
Ji Xun understood her complaining look and joked: "Do you ever feel that time is more precious just because you are about to die? Your thoughts are now clearer?"
"I did not think."
Katarina could not understand the joy of dancing on the death scythe.
She showed a speechless expression and fell into deep thought again.
The current situation seems to be a dead end.
In fact, there is a plan B, which is to ask Old Man Xu to go to other carriages to check the situation.
Others will die, but this guy most likely won't.
But Ji Xun knew that Old Man Xu would definitely not be willing, so he did not speak.
Or maybe the time hasn’t come yet to speak.
Catalina also thought of this, but she knew that she was even less qualified to speak.
The four of them just stared at each other.
If the BUG cannot be stuck, you can only think of normal ways to solve the problem.
They have to find a way to find out the decryption breakthrough in the time domain.
Che Er reminded: "I feel like time is flowing faster."
Ji Xun was even more direct, crossing his legs and starting to meditate.
Facts have proved that in this field, you have to be like a tortoise, the less you move, the longer you live.
After all, there are negative examples right in front of us.
While a few people were chatting, the few hunters not far away who were looking for a way to get out of the car in a panic were already very old.
Outside the train, water waves washed over the train.
This feeling of approaching death can drive a person crazy.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, someone tried to go to another carriage.
Yet the results were exactly the same.
The man went out from the front and came back from the back.
Then it aged rapidly, and the body turned into dust and disappeared.
Seeing that there was no hope of survival, the few who were left alive started shooting everywhere, causing hysterical destruction and trying to find a solution to the situation by trying their luck.
Their violent actions also increased the rate of death.
Not long after, among the other five hunters alive, two hunters who were sallow and skinny and looked like they would not live long, also ran out of life and died suddenly and turned into powder.
The conditions of Ji Xun and the four others were not good either.
Ji Xun's hair was almost completely white, and he looked like he was going to die suddenly at any moment.
But his expression remained unchanged, as if there was a strong will.
It looked like he was going to die, but he couldn't die.
Katarina beside her even felt that this guy didn't seem to have the fear of a normal person.
How could anyone else understand Ji Xun's thoughts at this moment.
If I hadn't come to this extraordinary world, I wouldn't have encountered such a wonderful experience in my previous life.
Moreover, if you don’t break the situation, you will die.
The more clearly I feel that death is approaching step by step, the clearer the feeling of multiple thoughts in my head erupting like a volcano.
Instead, Ji Xun's face overflowed with a bright smile.
Looking at Ji Xun's more and more white hair, Che Er couldn't hide his worry in his eyes.
He won't lose his memory.
Che Er was raised by Old Man Xu since he was a child, and he even knew his strength better than Old Man Xu himself.
Although it can’t be said to be very strong.
But he can always save the day in some critical moments.
He knew that his grandfather was very powerful.
He finally couldn't hold it back and asked, "Grandpa, have you thought of any way to get out of here?"
Among the four, the physical appearance of Ji Xun has undergone tremendous changes.
But only old man Xu still had the same sallow face.
At this moment, everyone was sure that the old man had not been eroded by the time realm at all.
At this rate, three of the four of them will most likely die here one after another.
Only this old man can get out alive.
Ji Xun didn't feel anything was wrong. On the contrary, he seemed to agree with what Catalina said: Anyone who is contaminated by this old man's great cause and effect will die if he doesn't have great luck.
He hadn't died before, it seemed like the time hadn't come yet.
Now, here we are.
The closer he was to death, the clearer the thoughts in Ji Xun's mind.
That persistent thought made him want to solve the mystery, which was also the biggest support for his will to hang on to his life and not die suddenly.
And there is no longer any thought of BUG.
The spiritual light burst out like a tide.
but.
After all, something seems to be missing.
"No"
Old man Xu himself was a little anxious.
It wasn't that he had any bad intentions, but he just remembered that he was just an ordinary hunter.
Now seeing people really dying, the old man felt a little guilty.
Something seemed to be on his mind, but he couldn't say it.
He turned to look at Che Er, who had transformed from a boy into a young man, and muttered with his mouth flat: "It's a strange feeling. You have grown so big in a blink of an eye. It's like my eyes are dim and I'm hallucinating."
Che Er frowned as he listened. He just wanted to break the situation as soon as possible.
Katerina didn't care either.
However, as soon as these words came out, a ray of light repeatedly pierced the dark clouds of depression.
Ji Xun suddenly opened his eyes and said in surprise: "Time is a cognitive illusion!"
In the moment of meditation just now, he had a lot of thoughts and deduced countless plans.
But none of them seemed feasible. At this moment, his mind was like a balloon that was about to burst.
And Old Man Xu's words were like the needle that popped the balloon.
Ji Xun's devil's mark "Comprehension +10" entry, as well as the blessing of great enlightenment when death was imminent, made him enlightened in an instant!
Clear the clouds and see the sun!
Hearing Ji Xun's soft drink, Catalina and the other three also cast doubtful and expectant glances.
Ji Xun's eyes were bright and he said excitedly: "If you want to crack the rules in this disaster realm, you have to understand the nature of this 'time realm'."
Hearing these words, the three people sitting at the table all looked startled, not knowing how serious they were.
Catalina listened and asked expectantly: "Do you understand the rules of breaking this disaster space?"
Ji Xun nodded and said bluntly: "Yes! The time on this train is a cognitive illusion! As long as you recognize this, you will no longer be affected by this disaster field."
Che Er was very sensitive to time. When he heard this, he looked thoughtful.
Catalina's eyes were full of doubts.
Ji Xun organized the words in his mind and tried his best to describe what he felt.
"The time we feel is not real time!"
He said: "It's like a story in a book. Even if no one opens the book, the story is already in the book. This is the story line in the book, which is the length of time in a specific dimension. . However, when a hand turns it over, the concept of another dimension of time appears. The faster it turns, the faster the timeline in the book advances. Just like this ghost train, it accelerates, The time we perceive has also accelerated! And when we are in the carriage, we are like the characters in the book. As we turn the pages of the book, we feel that life is passing quickly. This is actually a cognitive illusion! "
With this explanation, Che Er's crystal eyes became brighter and brighter, and he vaguely understood it completely.
Catalina's crystal eyes also shone brightly, as if she had caught something.
Ji Xun continued: "If we cannot see through this illusion, when the train arrives at the station, it will be like turning to the last page of the 'book', and our story will end here. If death is the ending, then the story in the book The character died on the last page! We will die too!"
After a pause, he continued: "But the fact is, if you turn it over from the first page, the characters in the story still exist! Therefore, the essence of time on the Netherworld Train is a cognitive illusion. It is not real 'time' Per se! At least not in the time of our reality!"
"I can't accurately understand the nature of 'real time' in the world we live in. But I can confirm that the time domain on the Netherworld Train we are currently in is this kind of 'low latitude time'! The acceleration of time flow is just a matter of our cognition. An illusion, not the real passage of time. It's like a dream. When you wake up from the dream, everything is an illusion."
"The way to break this disaster realm is to realize that time in the disaster realm is a perceptual illusion!"
"."
Just as Ji Xun finished speaking, a magical scene happened.
Catalina and the other three watched as Ji Xun's originally full head of white hair turned visibly black.In just an instant, his appearance changed back to how he looked when he first got in the car.
Even without looking, Ji Xun could feel the changes in his body.
Because he clearly felt the subtle flow of time.
There is also a brand new attribute prompt on the panel: Time Law Affinity +18.
Seeing this magical scene, Catalina and the other three people already understood that Ji Xun had really broken through this strange realm of disaster.
Old man Xu still looked confused and didn't understand anything.
But this field is of no use to him, and it doesn't matter if he understands it or not.
The eyes of Che Er on the side gradually became blurred, and he was obviously deep in thought.
He was also thinking about what Ji Xun had just pointed out in his mind.
Just a few breaths later, the light in his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in surprise: "I understand too!"
In an instant, he realized that Che Er had grasped something.
Then a magical scene also appeared.
It was as if the book that had been turned away at an accelerated speed was turned back to the original page, and Che Er's appearance changed from a young man back to a heroic young man.
Find the way to break the rules,
The deadlock was resolved in an instant.
The atmosphere that had been so oppressive that it was difficult to breathe suddenly relaxed.
However, Catalina frowned even more as she watched.
When different people hear the same sentence, they will understand it differently due to their cognitive limitations.
Although she has a high level of understanding, she does not have a super affinity with the Law of Time, so her understanding of those words seems very slow.
Gradually, time flows faster and faster in the carriage,
She also showed some anxiety.
Having said all that needed to be said, Ji Xun knew that no one else could help her.
This dilemma also appeared on the other four hunters who were still alive.
The hunters, whose faces were already wrinkled and old, watched Ji Xun and the two recover the time that had passed. Even though they were so weak that they were trembling when they walked, they rushed over: "Help me."
Ji Xun didn't want to save these guys who shot him in the head.
And it can’t be saved.
I didn't kill him before because I wanted to keep it to observe the effects of this disaster field.
It's worthless now.
Ji Xun shouted softly: "Get out!"
Those people were trembling with fear at the killing machine.
Compared to dying immediately or waiting to die, they chose the latter.
After all, they also heard the method, and none of them dared to get close. They also took the time to meditate cross-legged and comprehend the previous words.
Now the three companions have been defeated, and only myself is left.
Catalina wanted to be at peace.
But he couldn't calm down.
She clearly remembered every word Ji Xun said before in her mind.
It's like I've captured something, as if I've realized something.
But that realization was not enough for her to fully understand the concept of "time is an illusion of perception".
It was like a cloud floating in front of her eyes. She saw it clearly. She wanted to grab it in her hand, but there was only a cloud of water mist.
Katarina clearly realized that this was the key point in her "Hero Trial".
If you can survive it, you will have great luck.
If you can't survive it, you will die.
But understanding this kind of thing is something that can only be encountered.
As time went by, she felt more and more distant from that cloud.
Catalina clearly felt that her body's vitality had reached its peak and then began to fail.
Are you going to die?
Catalina was not afraid in her heart.
After all, by choosing the Hero Trial, she already had the consciousness of death.
Just a little unwilling.
It seems that I have already touched the great luck, but I just can't grasp it.
It's because I don't have enough destiny.
Catalina suddenly felt resigned to her fate.
I clearly felt that my life was coming to an end. For a moment, it seemed that all my thoughts were open-minded.
Katarina had a lot of thoughts in her mind.
My short life seems to be quite exciting.
But why do I feel a little ashamed when I think about those scenes where I have been fighting for the first place since I was a child?
Hahaha.
If I could do it again, keep a low profile and strive for first place again.
After thinking about it, something else popped up.
Nothing to do with oneself.
That guy is really awesome. Why can he understand it?
Catalina had to admit that she really looked at Ji Xun in a different light.
Originally, she came here for the mysterious Senior Xu.
But gradually,
However, she found that Ji Xun, whom she met by chance, became more and more prominent.
Although I knew that being able to become friends with Old Man Xu was probably due to some kind of luck.
But the more I got in touch with him, the more I felt that this guy was unusual.
Oh, no wonder the [Fate Gold Coin] trembles.
It turns out that this guy is also the great luck I want to imbibe.
An idea suddenly dawned on me.
But it seems too late.
Catalina herself didn't even feel that her heart was undergoing a violent transformation.
But something is obviously missing, and this transformation from cocoon to butterfly is about to come to an abrupt end.
She had made peace with death.
However, at this time, an unexpected opportunity came.
She suddenly felt a cold feeling in her palms, and a round object fell into her hands.
In an instant, that cool feeling went straight to my forehead.
Certain dilemmas suddenly became clear.
"This Ji Xun boy, your friend is not going to die, is he?"
"Ouch, forget it, people are going to die, so I won't accept the money."
"."
Time flows faster and faster, and Katarina is also aging visibly.
She failed to understand the time trap of this disaster space and fell into a very mysterious state of deep meditation.
can hear.
But it seems that everything around him has nothing to do with him.
Ji Xun and the other three looked at her.
Now all three of them have escaped death, except Katarina.
Ji Xun was very indifferent.
He and Catalina were not friends, just acquaintances.
It would be best if you don't die.
Even if she dies, it is her own life.
No one else can help.
Old man Xu felt guilty, thinking that if he didn't take the little girl's money, she wouldn't come with him.
After all, unable to endure the torment in his heart, the money-hungry old man took out the gold coin from before, rubbed it with reluctance, and returned it to Catalina's hand.
However, this gold coin was tainted with some cause and effect after passing through her hands. When it fell into Catalina's hand, it began to tremble slightly.
At that moment, it seemed like some kind of magical energy related to fate was fluctuating.
Ji Xun's pupils shrank slightly as he watched.
He didn't understand what was happening.
But he saw Catalina's originally aging face suddenly regain its luster and become plump and rosy.
"Has she realized it too?"
Ji Xun felt a little incredible.
But as soon as he looked at the dimming luster on the [Golden Coin of Destiny], he suddenly understood something: "Did you win the bet on life?"
He suddenly understood the purpose of this woman's hero trial.
What a big bet.
Within a few breaths, Catalina returned to the gorgeous girl she was before getting in the car.
She opened her eyes and looked at the three people looking at her with joy.
As if he had been reborn, an extremely deep luster bloomed in those bright blue pupils.
Catalina held the gold coin in her hand, stood up and bowed respectfully: "Thank you, senior!"
Old Man Xu was a little confused by her behavior, "What?"
Catalina didn't explain much.
Grandpa had already told me before he came, don't talk nonsense, otherwise some karma will not be able to bear it.
She turned to look at Ji Xun again, with a sincere smile she had never seen before on her pretty face: "Thank you too."
Ji Xun chuckled lightly, his eyes leisurely.
It was no coincidence that he could figure out the mystery of that time before.
It was also contaminated by Old Man Xu’s luck!
The fact was just as Ji Xun had guessed.
Before the ghost train arrives at the station, time flows faster and faster.
The other pioneer hunters in the car turned into powder and disappeared completely before the car stopped.
It was just like when they got into the car before, leaving no trace.
woo woo woo.
The train arrived at another platform.
Ji Xun and the four others got off the train.
Finally, the water in front of us is no longer an endless stretch of Styx water.
There seemed to be many ancient buildings in the dark mountain shadows in the distance.
"Ah, we've finally arrived."
"Yeah. Unexpectedly, I took a train and almost died on it."
"It's really a wonderful experience. But what is the situation in Xia Mu City?"
"."
After getting out of the car, Ji Xun also felt relieved.
Getting to the station alive is not easy at all.
He looked at the relic in his hand and showed doubts.
This is a metal snake forged from bronze.
The material looks a bit like the copper plate that was previously recorded to record 52 magic mysteries.
That's why Ji Xun found it strange.
This was given to him by the conductor after they cracked the time trap in the catastrophic space.
He also said something in Talungu that I didn’t understand.
Ji Xun thought that this might be some key thing in this secret realm.
However, without much thought, at this moment, a figure trotted over in the darkness in the distance.
"Hey, why are you three guys here?"
Ji Xun looked wary.
This ruin has been deserted for thousands of years, and suddenly someone appears. It’s not a monster, it’s a monster.
At the same time, I am very confused, why does that obscene running posture look familiar?
The same goes for Katarina and Che Er beside her.
After the man ran out of the darkness, the three of them saw clearly that the guy with the gaping front teeth was who if he wasn't Old Man Xu?
However, the moment they saw it clearly, an explosive feeling of terror instantly hit the backs of the three of them.
Because the four of them got off the bus together.
Old Man Xu was behind them now and was still talking a second ago.
So, who is this person in front of me?
Human or ghost?
(End of this chapter)
Old man Xu's eyelids jumped at the looks from Ji Xun and the others.
The old man obviously hadn't realized that he was completely unaffected by the strange time realm on the train.
But the hunter just now was wiped out in front of his eyes, and he didn't want to take the chance.
This guy's shrewd little eyes were full of vigilance, and he said evasively: "Hey, hey, hey, Ji Xun, boy, I'm telling you, don't make any plans for me. My old bones can't stand the torture."
Ji Xun chuckled and shook his head. He had long been accustomed to the old man's rhetoric and interrupted: "Senior, you don't need to take any risks. The conductor will be here in a while. Please help us ask how to get off the train. alright."
His tone was calm.
It was as if the white hairs sprouting out one after another on his head did not make him feel the urgency of his fleeting life at all.
But in order to make Mr. Xu feel that time was pressing, he also added: "Of course, before that, if we are not dead yet."
Catalina on the side heard this and completely understood what she was talking about.
In areas with rule-based disasters, you usually need to break the corresponding rules to leave.
But in the field formed by high-level laws such as the "Law of Time", few people currently have any ideas to crack it.

When Old Man Xu heard this, his eyes turned again and again, as if he was weighing the risks, but as if he thought of something, his face turned into worry.
Che Er reminded: "Grandpa?"
Old Man Xu didn't hide it, and said truthfully with a grimace: "It's okay to ask. But how should I ask? I don't know what it said."
"."
As soon as these words came out, it was like pressing the pause button.

The closer he was to death, the clearer the thoughts in Ji Xun's mind.
That persistent thought made him want to solve the mystery, which was also the biggest support for his will to hang on to his life and not die suddenly.
And there is no longer any thought of BUG.
The spiritual light burst out like a tide.
but.
After all, something seems to be missing.
"No"
Old man Xu himself was a little anxious.
It wasn't that he had any bad intentions, but he just remembered that he was just an ordinary hunter.
Now seeing people really dying, the old man felt a little guilty.
Something seemed to be on his mind, but he couldn't say it.
He turned to look at Che Er, who had transformed from a boy into a young man, and muttered with his mouth flat: "It's a strange feeling. You have grown so big in a blink of an eye. It's like my eyes are dim and I'm hallucinating."
Che Er frowned as he listened. He just wanted to break the situation as soon as possible.
Katerina didn't care either.
However, as soon as these words came out, a ray of light repeatedly pierced the dark clouds of depression.
Ji Xun suddenly opened his eyes and said in surprise: "Time is a cognitive illusion!"
In the moment of meditation just now, he had a lot of thoughts and deduced countless plans.
But none of them seemed feasible. At this moment, his mind was like a balloon that was about to burst.
And Old Man Xu's words were like the needle that popped the balloon.
Ji Xun's devil's mark "Comprehension +10" entry, as well as the blessing of great enlightenment when death was imminent, made him enlightened in an instant!
Clear the clouds and see the sun!
Hearing Ji Xun's soft drink, Catalina and the other three also cast doubtful and expectant glances.
Ji Xun's eyes were bright and he said excitedly: "If you want to crack the rules in this disaster realm, you have to understand the nature of this 'time realm'."
Hearing these words, the three people sitting at the table all looked startled, not knowing how serious they were.
Catalina listened and asked expectantly: "Do you understand the rules of breaking this disaster space?"
Ji Xun nodded and said bluntly: "Yes! The time on this train is a cognitive illusion! As long as you recognize this, you will no longer be affected by this disaster field."
Che Er was very sensitive to time. When he heard this, he looked thoughtful.
Catalina's eyes were full of doubts.
Ji Xun organized the words in his mind and tried his best to describe what he felt.
"The time we feel is not real time!"
He said: "It's like a story in a book. Even if no one opens the book, the story is already in the book. This is the story line in the book, which is the length of time in a specific dimension. . However, when a hand turns it over, the concept of another dimension of time appears. The faster it turns, the faster the timeline in the book advances. Just like this ghost train, it accelerates, The time we perceive has also accelerated! And when we are in the carriage, we are like the characters in the book. As we turn the pages of the book, we feel that life is passing quickly. This is actually a cognitive illusion! "
With this explanation, Che Er's crystal eyes became brighter and brighter, and he vaguely understood it completely.
Catalina's crystal eyes also shone brightly, as if she had caught something.
Ji Xun continued: "If we cannot see through this illusion, when the train arrives at the station, it will be like turning to the last page of the 'book', and our story will end here. If death is the ending, then the story in the book The character died on the last page! We will die too!"
After a pause, he continued: "But the fact is, if you turn it over from the first page, the characters in the story still exist! Therefore, the essence of time on the Netherworld Train is a cognitive illusion. It is not real 'time' Per se! At least not in the time of our reality!"
"I can't accurately understand the nature of 'real time' in the world we live in. But I can confirm that the time domain on the Netherworld Train we are currently in is this kind of 'low latitude time'! The acceleration of time flow is just a matter of our cognition. An illusion, not the real passage of time. It's like a dream. When you wake up from the dream, everything is an illusion."
"The way to break this disaster realm is to realize that time in the disaster realm is a perceptual illusion!"
"."
Just as Ji Xun finished speaking, a magical scene happened.
Catalina and the other three watched as Ji Xun's originally full head of white hair turned visibly black.In just an instant, his appearance changed back to how he looked when he first got in the car.
Even without looking, Ji Xun could feel the changes in his body.
Because he clearly felt the subtle flow of time.
There is also a brand new attribute prompt on the panel: Time Law Affinity +18.
Seeing this magical scene, Catalina and the other three people already understood that Ji Xun had really broken through this strange realm of disaster.
Old man Xu still looked confused and didn't understand anything.
But this field is of no use to him, and it doesn't matter if he understands it or not.
The eyes of Che Er on the side gradually became blurred, and he was obviously deep in thought.
He was also thinking about what Ji Xun had just pointed out in his mind.
Just a few breaths later, the light in his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in surprise: "I understand too!"
In an instant, he realized that Che Er had grasped something.
Then a magical scene also appeared.
It was as if the book that had been turned away at an accelerated speed was turned back to the original page, and Che Er's appearance changed from a young man back to a heroic young man.
Find the way to break the rules,
The deadlock was resolved in an instant.
The atmosphere that had been so oppressive that it was difficult to breathe suddenly relaxed.
However, Catalina frowned even more as she watched.
When different people hear the same sentence, they will understand it differently due to their cognitive limitations.
Although she has a high level of understanding, she does not have a super affinity with the Law of Time, so her understanding of those words seems very slow.
Gradually, time flows faster and faster in the carriage,
She also showed some anxiety.
Having said all that needed to be said, Ji Xun knew that no one else could help her.
This dilemma also appeared on the other four hunters who were still alive.
The hunters, whose faces were already wrinkled and old, watched Ji Xun and the two recover the time that had passed. Even though they were so weak that they were trembling when they walked, they rushed over: "Help me."
Ji Xun didn't want to save these guys who shot him in the head.
And it can’t be saved.
I didn't kill him before because I wanted to keep it to observe the effects of this disaster field.
It's worthless now.
Ji Xun shouted softly: "Get out!"
Those people were trembling with fear at the killing machine.
Compared to dying immediately or waiting to die, they chose the latter.
After all, they also heard the method, and none of them dared to get close. They also took the time to meditate cross-legged and comprehend the previous words.
Now the three companions have been defeated, and only myself is left.
Catalina wanted to be at peace.
But he couldn't calm down.
She clearly remembered every word Ji Xun said before in her mind.
It's like I've captured something, as if I've realized something.
But that realization was not enough for her to fully understand the concept of "time is an illusion of perception".
It was like a cloud floating in front of her eyes. She saw it clearly. She wanted to grab it in her hand, but there was only a cloud of water mist.
Katarina clearly realized that this was the key point in her "Hero Trial".
If you can survive it, you will have great luck.
If you can't survive it, you will die.
But understanding this kind of thing is something that can only be encountered.
As time went by, she felt more and more distant from that cloud.
Catalina clearly felt that her body's vitality had reached its peak and then began to fail.
Are you going to die?
Catalina was not afraid in her heart.
After all, by choosing the Hero Trial, she already had the consciousness of death.
Just a little unwilling.
It seems that I have already touched the great luck, but I just can't grasp it.
It's because I don't have enough destiny.
Catalina suddenly felt resigned to her fate.
I clearly felt that my life was coming to an end. For a moment, it seemed that all my thoughts were open-minded.
Katarina had a lot of thoughts in her mind.
My short life seems to be quite exciting.
But why do I feel a little ashamed when I think about those scenes where I have been fighting for the first place since I was a child?
Hahaha.
If I could do it again, keep a low profile and strive for first place again.
After thinking about it, something else popped up.
Nothing to do with oneself.
That guy is really awesome. Why can he understand it?
Catalina had to admit that she really looked at Ji Xun in a different light.
Originally, she came here for the mysterious Senior Xu.
But gradually,
However, she found that Ji Xun, whom she met by chance, became more and more prominent.
Although I knew that being able to become friends with Old Man Xu was probably due to some kind of luck.
But the more I got in touch with him, the more I felt that this guy was unusual.
Oh, no wonder the [Fate Gold Coin] trembles.
It turns out that this guy is also the great luck I want to imbibe.
An idea suddenly dawned on me.
But it seems too late.
Catalina herself didn't even feel that her heart was undergoing a violent transformation.
But something is obviously missing, and this transformation from cocoon to butterfly is about to come to an abrupt end.
She had made peace with death.
However, at this time, an unexpected opportunity came.
She suddenly felt a cold feeling in her palms, and a round object fell into her hands.
In an instant, that cool feeling went straight to my forehead.
Certain dilemmas suddenly became clear.
"This Ji Xun boy, your friend is not going to die, is he?"
"Ouch, forget it, people are going to die, so I won't accept the money."
"."
Time flows faster and faster, and Katarina is also aging visibly.
She failed to understand the time trap of this disaster space and fell into a very mysterious state of deep meditation.
can hear.
But it seems that everything around him has nothing to do with him.
Ji Xun and the other three looked at her.
Now all three of them have escaped death, except Katarina.
Ji Xun was very indifferent.
He and Catalina were not friends, just acquaintances.
It would be best if you don't die.
Even if she dies, it is her own life.
No one else can help.
Old man Xu felt guilty, thinking that if he didn't take the little girl's money, she wouldn't come with him.
After all, unable to endure the torment in his heart, the money-hungry old man took out the gold coin from before, rubbed it with reluctance, and returned it to Catalina's hand.
However, this gold coin was tainted with some cause and effect after passing through her hands. When it fell into Catalina's hand, it began to tremble slightly.
At that moment, it seemed like some kind of magical energy related to fate was fluctuating.
Ji Xun's pupils shrank slightly as he watched.
He didn't understand what was happening.
But he saw Catalina's originally aging face suddenly regain its luster and become plump and rosy.
"Has she realized it too?"
Ji Xun felt a little incredible.
But as soon as he looked at the dimming luster on the [Golden Coin of Destiny], he suddenly understood something: "Did you win the bet on life?"
He suddenly understood the purpose of this woman's hero trial.
What a big bet.
Within a few breaths, Catalina returned to the gorgeous girl she was before getting in the car.
She opened her eyes and looked at the three people looking at her with joy.
As if he had been reborn, an extremely deep luster bloomed in those bright blue pupils.
Catalina held the gold coin in her hand, stood up and bowed respectfully: "Thank you, senior!"
Old Man Xu was a little confused by her behavior, "What?"
Catalina didn't explain much.
Grandpa had already told me before he came, don't talk nonsense, otherwise some karma will not be able to bear it.
She turned to look at Ji Xun again, with a sincere smile she had never seen before on her pretty face: "Thank you too."
Ji Xun chuckled lightly, his eyes leisurely.
It was no coincidence that he could figure out the mystery of that time before.
It was also contaminated by Old Man Xu’s luck!
The fact was just as Ji Xun had guessed.
Before the ghost train arrives at the station, time flows faster and faster.
The other pioneer hunters in the car turned into powder and disappeared completely before the car stopped.
It was just like when they got into the car before, leaving no trace.
woo woo woo.
The train arrived at another platform.
Ji Xun and the four others got off the train.
Finally, the water in front of us is no longer an endless stretch of Styx water.
There seemed to be many ancient buildings in the dark mountain shadows in the distance.
"Ah, we've finally arrived."
"Yeah. Unexpectedly, I took a train and almost died on it."
"It's really a wonderful experience. But what is the situation in Xia Mu City?"
"."
After getting out of the car, Ji Xun also felt relieved.
Getting to the station alive is not easy at all.
He looked at the relic in his hand and showed doubts.
This is a metal snake forged from bronze.
The material looks a bit like the copper plate that was previously recorded to record 52 magic mysteries.
That's why Ji Xun found it strange.
This was given to him by the conductor after they cracked the time trap in the catastrophic space.
He also said something in Talungu that I didn’t understand.
Ji Xun thought that this might be some key thing in this secret realm.
However, without much thought, at this moment, a figure trotted over in the darkness in the distance.
"Hey, why are you three guys here?"
Ji Xun looked wary.
This ruin has been deserted for thousands of years, and suddenly someone appears. It’s not a monster, it’s a monster.
At the same time, I am very confused, why does that obscene running posture look familiar?
The same goes for Katarina and Che Er beside her.
After the man ran out of the darkness, the three of them saw clearly that the guy with the gaping front teeth was who if he wasn't Old Man Xu?
However, the moment they saw it clearly, an explosive feeling of terror instantly hit the backs of the three of them.
Because the four of them got off the bus together.
Old Man Xu was behind them now and was still talking a second ago.
So, who is this person in front of me?
Human or ghost?
