Urban Witcher

"As I said, a person can only go to the timeline where he exists. Before I became Xu Fu's life, I was reincarnated for five generations, that is, the Zhou Dynasty. Going forward, my soul was scattered, and I have not yet been reborn. Therefore, I can only go back to the Zhou Dynasty at the earliest, and at that time, the Shanhai Seal was still strictly enshrined in the Yin Division, and no one could get it unless I snatched it from other Xu Fu."

The corner of Ye Shaoyang's mouth twitched twice, and he said, "Have you ever done this before?"

Xu Fu snorted, "When I think of this, the 'me' in other timelines has already thought of it. In the years when Xu Fu disappeared, traveling through time and space, you all thought I was avoiding the underworld. It’s ridiculous, I have the seal of mountains and seas in my hand, and I travel to a certain time point at random, who can find me? I travel so hard in time and space, because I am avoiding the ‘me’ in other timelines, or in the Busy chasing and killing me in other timelines, snatching the mountain and sea seals in their hands, all of me are doing that."

He shrugged and added: "There are countless me."

Ye Shaoyang showed an incredulous expression.

"Didn't it mean... you can't meet yourself in other worlds, otherwise both worlds will be destroyed."

"Yes, we have a tacit understanding with each other. We don't really meet and fight, but travel to each other's world and use all available power to kill people with a knife. This process lasted for a long, long time. Xu Fu in many worlds died here. In a ridiculous war."

Ye Shaoyang thought about it for a while, but he couldn't understand what kind of war it was, he was fighting with himself, and countless of them were killing each other.

"You didn't die in the end?"

"Didn't you ask the question knowingly? In your world, Xu Fu has always been alive, and was trapped in Zhao Prison."

"But you said that you are not Xu Fu in my world, so I have to ask, why did you find me, I mean... If you want to find someone to cooperate with, there are countless timelines to choose from, the first choice is you Ye Shaoyang in my own timeline, isn't that the case?"

Xu Fu glanced at him in surprise, and said: "You are smarter than I thought, put this aside first, and then talk about the previous problem, I can survive because I first thought of a way, that is to travel back to my own time A thousand years ago, I hid the seal of mountains and seas in a place where no one can find it and can absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and I will come back to get it after a thousand years."

Thousands of years later... Ye Shaoyang suddenly realized, "It's said to be a thousand years, but it's just a matter of the left hand and the right hand."

Travel to a thousand years ago, hide the mountain and sea seal, and travel to a thousand years later, dig out the mountain and sea seal, drop, you can swipe the card once. After using it, put it back to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, or simply put it back a few more times, and then use it slowly after absorbing enough...

"Your method...isn't it breaking the rules of heaven and earth?"

"The aura of heaven and earth is inexhaustible, not to mention that I still have to use it up. I haven't changed anything, it's just a trick." Xu Fu replied calmly.

Ye Shaoyang stared at him blankly, and asked without thinking, "Why aren't you a god?"

Xu Fu was also stunned for a moment, then he understood, and said with a smile: "To be able to control time, to go to the past and the future, is indeed almost like a god, but so what, if I really start messing around, this world will be over long ago. At most, I am an old man of time, I can control the time, but I cannot change it, just like the administrator of your school library, who is entitled to read any book for free, but cannot take it away or destroy it.”

After a pause, he continued, "Because I understand time better than you all, I want to defend its rules even more. I hope you can remember this sentence."

And said:

"Others think that I have the seal of mountains and seas, and I can do whatever I want in the long river of time, and I can go to any time to find all kinds of powerful magic tools and rare herbs that can make alchemy. At first, I did do this. Countless lessons have made me more and more awed by the rules of time, and everyone has their own upper limit of talent, just like adding water to a bottle, no matter how many adventures, no matter how many rare plants, the speed of adding water can only be accelerated , once it’s full, it’s useless to add more water. I’ve reached my upper limit, even if I’m given another 10,000 years, it’s useless. And the magic weapon... if the cultivation level is not enough, no matter how good the magic weapon is, it won’t work.”

"Are you giving me a lesson after talking so much?"

Xu Fu smiled, "It's not over yet. What I just said is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that I have long since lost my desire to practice Taoism."

Ye Shaoyang was a little surprised, "You were the number one alchemist in the world back then, how could you have no desire to practice Taoism?"

"What kind of first alchemist, in the long river of time, is just a fart."

"It's been a long time again, can I have something new?"

"To be honest, at the beginning, I also wanted to be number one in the Three Realms, but if you live for two thousand years and see people in the magic world come one after another, even if it is a rare genius, I have met more than a dozen. Back then My ambitions have long been worn out, mana is enough. For the next thousand years, I will basically study the rules of time. This matter is much more interesting than cultivating Taoism. People in the world will practice together with you. You are a genius, there is always someone who is even more genius than you, you see, you have only used it for more than ten years, and you are the number one in the adult world, so what's the point, but the Shanhaiyin is only in my hands, who can study the rules of time, I am the only one in the Three Realms, so it is not clear at a glance which is more important."

Ye Shaoyang said: "My personal opinion is different."

"If you lived two thousand years, you would be like me."

"I don't want to live so long." Ye Shaoyang continued to ask, "You have studied for a thousand years, what have you found?"

"So I know almost everything I should know and what I shouldn't know." Xu Fu smiled, "Don't worry, I will tell you slowly later, if you have any questions, ask first, lest you feel uncomfortable .”

Ye Shaoyang thought for a while, and asked, "Why did you give the Shanhaiyin to me?"

"Because I'm bored."

Xu Fu's answer was beyond Ye Shaoyang's expectation.

He sighed, and then said: "Shanhaiyin gave me everything and took away everything from me. I have been fascinated by it for two thousand years, but any interest has an end. As early as hundreds of years ago, I was fascinated by it." I figured out all the secrets about time—of course it can’t be everything, but I can’t understand more, and my practice has reached a bottleneck, and I can’t make a breakthrough. Taking a step back, even if I break through, so what, all practitioners in the world want to I went to the Asura Realm to find the ultimate 'Tao', I have already mastered the 'Tao' of time, and I am not interested in anything else."
