Chapter 514: Qilin Footprints
The terrifying force of time and space swept over.
It stirred up the boundless stream of time and space, turning it into a terrifying vortex.
Li Yuan was pulled by an invisible force and found it difficult to break free.
Sensing the danger approaching, a brilliant golden light shone in his eyes.
A pair of pupils, as if made of gold, are very mysterious.
With the help of the golden eyes, Li Yuan's strength reached its peak. He concentrated on finding gaps in the dense streams of time and space to dodge.
The dark gap in space and time is getting closer, and the space-time flow it induces is becoming particularly dense.
Li Yuan tried his best to dodge, but was still hit by some fragments of time and space that suddenly appeared.
There were terrible scars on his arms and thighs, as if they had been corroded by time, the flesh and blood had become rotten and even turned to ashes.
Li Yuan gritted his teeth, looked at the space-time gap that was so close at hand, and felt the tingling sensation all over his body.
He became ruthless and instead of dodging, he charged forward. Immortal power, star power, mysterious energy... all the power gathered in front of him and he rushed towards the dark gap in time and space.
He had a premonition that if he delayed for a few more moments, he would have nowhere to hide and would be shattered by the power of time and space!
"Since the Qilin's magical power is guiding the way, it won't wipe out life!"
Li Yuan shouted loudly and sank into the gap in time and space.
But I found that there was a deep tunnel with no end in sight.
The endless power of time and space suddenly became violent, sweeping through the tunnel, preventing any living creature from passing through.
Li Yuan summoned the Fushang Sword and cut through some time and space fragments that he could not avoid. Tiangang Haoran Qi also protected his surroundings, but was easily avoided by those time and space fragments and directly injured him.
The violent force of time and space stirred the streams and made the fragments dance, as if it could annihilate the heaven and earth and shatter everything.
Even with Li Yuan's great cultivation, he could only hold out for a few moments before he was about to fall apart.
His body looked as if it had been cut into pieces by thousands of knives, his body was dyed red by immortal blood, his flesh and blood was corroded by time and space, and turned into ashes. He looked so miserable.
The Heavenly Demon was also anxious: "Truthless old Qilin, if my brother dies here, you Qilin bloodline will wait to die!"
It wished its true form could be born and come to block the damage for Li Yuan.
Asking a great god like Li Yuan to bear the gap in time and space that even ordinary powerful people cannot travel through is like hitting tofu with a heavy knife.
The tofu has not completely broken, it's just that the tofu will 'heal itself'.
Even so, Li Yuan has reached his limit.
Just to resist those violent forces of time and space, his immortal power seemed to be drained away, and his profound energy was also exhausted.
The star power brought by Yuankui Xingjun's priesthood is still barely holding on, but it is about to dim.
Li Yuan's golden pupils were as fast as lightning. He sprinted forward with all his might, trying to use his last bit of strength to break out of this deep tunnel of time and space.
However, when he became unconscious, he was unable to see the light of day.
The demon was furious. Looking at Li Yuan who was gradually sinking into the space-time tunnel and about to be chopped into pieces, he could not help but curse:
"Damn old Qilin, are you really going to block us with a dead end?!"
"Didn't you leave traces in Wangchuan? You want me to atone for your sins! I've brought people here, so you better find a way to survive!"
"If he dies, the Qilin bloodline will never be able to return to the Three Realms, and will never be able to continue!"
The furious voice of the celestial demon reverberated in the tunnel of time and space, conveying resentment and regret.
If Li Yuan really died here, leaving only a false god clone in the world...
The demon can really go crazy!
Just as it was furious, Li Yuan's unconscious and gradually broken body accidentally touched something as if in a time tunnel.
That's a mark.
The scales and claw marks are clear and distinct, like a brand that will last forever in time and space.
When Li Yuan's body touched the claw mark, everything changed.
The time and space tunnel gradually calmed down.
All the streams and debris that were swept away disappeared, as if they were forcibly moved to an unknown place.
The shadow of a beast emitting an auspicious aura slowly emerged from the footprint-like mark.
Its head is like that of a sheep or a lion, with a pair of horns; its neck is thick and slender, and its body is like that of an elk, full of beauty; its body is covered with colorful scales, its claws are like those of a wolf, and its tail is like that of a dragon.
It is not particularly large, only three or four meters tall.
But his pair of wise eyes were filled with vicissitudes of life, and even the scales all over his body were mottled.
The beard on his head and neck had already turned white.
This is an old Qilin that once dominated the three realms. Now, only a broken mark remains.
The Sky Demon Scale was still in Li Yuan's arms, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "Old Qilin, it's really that old Qilin..."
The old Qilin took a step, stepped on the void with his claws, and slowly approached.
In the distance, in an unknown place, the power of time and space came back again, as if to return to its original position and continue the momentum of sweeping everything.
The old Qilin raised his head and roared softly, his voice was desolate and melodious, carrying endless sadness and sorrow.
It penetrates time and space, as if telling of endless regrets and helplessness.
Then, the shadow of the old Qilin lowered its head and gently picked up the almost broken Li Yuan.
Looking back, he ran towards the depths of the time tunnel.
Along the way, there are footprints left by the Qilin, guiding the direction and allowing the old Qilin's mark to continue forward along the footprints.
After hearing the sad and melodious roar, the celestial demon remained silent for a long time.
The blood and sorrow of the Qilin clan, this divine beast that represents auspiciousness and blessing, sacrificed its entire clan to fill the calamity in exchange for one million years of peace in the Three Realms.
But originally...it shouldn't be like this.
"The true dragon was slaughtered, the phoenix was refined into the celestial realm, and the entire Qilin clan was saved from the disaster..."
"It was me who acted recklessly and broke the balance..."
Tian Yao felt bitter in his heart. Thinking of that glorious era, his old friends, and the carefree days they had shared, he couldn't help but feel sad.
Previously, when it encountered its 'younger self', there was a moment in its heart when it wished that its real self was here.
I can go back to that era and stop myself from going crazy with killing!
Too much sadness and regret happened after it went on a killing spree.
When I woke up, all my old friends were buried, leaving only a handful of yellow earth, telling of my unfinished thoughts.
What does it matter if it traverses the three realms and achieves a great reputation? All the things it cherishes and cares about are buried in time.
Originally, Tian Yao thought that after being suppressed for a million years, he had gone crazy and sober over and over again, and had long since let it go.
But when he heard the old dragon's desperate roar and the old Qilin's sad wail, Tian Yao's mood couldn't help but be stirred up again.
"So...you must not...follow my old path."
The celestial demon whispered, as if giving Li Yuan some kind of instructions and wishes.
In the silent tunnel of time and space, there is the shadow of a running unicorn.
The unconscious Li Yuan was taken to a completely unknown era by the shadow of the old Qilin's mark.
