Chapter 554 Time freezes(1/3)
The life lamp finally formed by the fusion of the purple crystal light and Xu Qing's bloodline, Xu Qing's research found that its ability is indeed related to time, but it is not absolute.
For example, the soul protection of the big black umbrella does not disappear because it is dissolved, it still exists.
And it's even stronger than before.
In addition, the time on the sundial differs from the time outside by about seven hours.
Xu Qing didn't know what secret this time difference contained, and after thinking about it, he didn't answer.
For seven days, he tried to speed up the sundial, but the light of the Nascent Soul seemed to be pulled, making it difficult to do so.
The same goes for reverse flow.
Make it pause, same thing.
This sundial obviously has the same origin as him, but it rotates on its own. Even if Xu Qing controls the Nascent Soul to leave, the light is still there and continues to move in a fixed way.
This look is similar to when Xu Qing just obtained the purple crystal.
Until Xu Qing thought of a way.
He couldn't change the rotation of the light, nor could he make the dial rotate by itself, but he could control the dial needle!
After all, fundamentally speaking, the sundial needle is his true blood.
He can control the dial needle to break away from the dial and make it fly out.
And during the experiment, he discovered that the moment the dial needle broke away, the dial seemed to have lost its direction and guidance, and the light stopped and stopped moving.
As a result, there is no concept of time. No matter how the lights shine, it is only transparent.
Even vaguely, the dial showed signs of decay.
When Xu Qing put the dial needle back in, the dial recovered, the light continued to move, and the shadow of the pointer returned as usual.
In terms of time, counting starts from the moment when the dial needle flew out.
To a certain extent, the time between when the sundial needle leaves and when it returns seems to have disappeared.
"Then, it can be understood that it was stopped?"
Xu Qing murmured, his eyes flashing. He felt that his method might not be correct, but no matter what, this was the first ability he had discovered from the life lamp.
At the moment when the sundial lost its hands and time seemed to have stopped, Ling'er, who was sticking her head out of Xu Qing's sleeves and trying to crawl toward his ear, paused after Xu Qing lowered his head and looked down.
Motionless.
It was as if the time that belonged to her had been stopped.
This process only took a moment to recover, because Xu Qing discovered that the decay of the dial was related to this.
This discovery caused a huge stir in Xu Qing's mind.
"The moment I remove the dial needle, will the time around me stop under my gaze?"
Xu Qing quickly tried several more times, but Ling'er was still at a loss as to why he had stopped many times.
She tried her best to crawl towards Xu Qing's ears, her body pounding. The distance that she could reach quickly in the past seemed extremely far away to her now.
After a while, she finally climbed onto Xu Qing's ear and looked at Xu Qing shyly.
"Brother Xu Qing, why are you looking at me like that?"
This sentence was somewhat familiar to Xu Qing, but at this moment, his mind was racing, so he didn't think about it deeply. After nodding, he asked.
"Ling'er, did you feel anything abnormal just now?"
Ling'er was surprised and shook her head.
Xu Qing was thoughtful and continued to study.
Ling'er was curious, but also knew that Brother Xu Qing was busy at the moment, so he found a comfortable position, rocked there, and played by himself.
Xu Qing groaned deep in his heart.
"Ling'er didn't notice that he stopped, so how big is the scope of this ability..."
Xu Qing's heart moved, and he walked out of the cave, looking at the dim sky and earth outside, feeling the wind around him and the heat contained in it, and then looking in the direction of the sea of fire in the distance.
He thought about it, but still didn't dare.
Xu Qing felt that with his current cultivation level and the newly formed sundial, if he could spread the power of stillness over a large area, he could look at the movement of the stars, the flow of the wind, and the trajectory of the world.
Then there is a high probability that his fate will be that he will be destroyed physically and mentally in an instant.
If the operation of Wanggu Continent is compared to a galloping giant beast, every law within it is part of the power of the giant beast, and at this moment, I am just an inconspicuous rope.
If you use such a rope to restrain a giant beast, you can imagine the consequences.
"Forget it..."
Xu Qing was silent, but he felt that this ability, if deployed in a fight, would be extremely powerful.
"Let's name this ability time lag!"
Xu Qing murmured that he had a feeling that the Sundial Life Lamp had more abilities, and he needed to research and develop them slowly.
"This matter is not urgent. The most important thing now is to refine the other four life lamps."
His body recovered during these seven days and was in peak condition. He could go to the Sea of Sky Fire to continue practicing. After experiencing the shroud of magma fire, his resistance to the sky fire had also improved.
So Xu Qing wasted no time and galloped in the darkness, gradually entering the land of fire and stepping into the sea of fire.
This time, Xu Qing learned the lessons he had learned from the past. He went further and paid attention to the appearance of his own red crystal. He also changed areas more frequently.
To ensure that your refining can be carried out safely.
As for whether a thousand-foot whirlpool will appear in the end, Xu Qing is not sure.
There was no way to cover up the matter, so he chose to go to a more remote location.
Just like that, twenty days passed.
The refining speed of the Seven-Colored Wind Chanting Lamp is a little faster than that of the Black Umbrella Life Lamp. I wonder if it is due to the blessing of the sundial or the lamp itself.
As it melted drop by drop, the concentration of the life lamp substance in Xu Qing's bloodline increased again. A similar feeling made him very clear that his own life lamp was about to be formed.
Finally, on the twenty-third day, Xu Qing's eyes opened suddenly while immersed in the magma.
A thousand-foot whirlpool appeared around him. In the rumbling rotation, the seven-colored wind chant lamp completely disappeared, and the second sundial lamp appeared in the fog of Xu Qing's sea of consciousness.
Exactly the same as the first sundial!
This is what a lamp truly born from blood should look like.
Those masters and their descendants are all like this in the appearance of their lanterns.
But if outsiders want to raise a complete set, it is much more difficult than putting together a piece of life lanterns.
At this moment, as it appeared, the shadow of the pointer on it began to move. In terms of time, there was also a gap of seven hours with the first sundial lamp.
The simultaneous operation of the two sundials caused a stronger collision between the flow speeds inside and outside the thousand-foot range, and there were faint space cracks that were also torn apart.
While it looked shocking, Xu Qing also felt that the ability of his second life lamp also retained the physical protection of the original colorful wind chant.
Moreover, the mutual blessing formed between the two lamps is particularly amazing, greatly surpassing the previous ones.
And the time lag technique he developed has doubled in power.
As for the red crystal, Xu Qing immediately took it away and put it in a box to isolate it from the atmosphere.
So logically speaking, his refining this time has tried to hide his traces as much as possible.
Only this vortex may attract attention, but because of its remoteness, the area it attracts will not be too large, and it is far less sensitive than the compass-sensing Skyfire Crystal.
Xu Qing originally thought that this way he could avoid trouble to the greatest extent, but sometimes, fate is elusive.
For example, at this moment, within this thousand-foot range, while the vortex was constantly rotating, three red crystals were suddenly rolled out from the depths of the magma and rotated with the vortex.
Xu Qing's expression changed when he saw it, and he instinctively wanted to collect them, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
Taking it away at this moment could not prevent it from being discovered, so Xu Qing gritted his teeth, ignored it, and left quickly.
He doesn't like these things.
If he can use this to draw away the attention of people, it will be easier for him to hide.
Although what happened in the Sky Fire Sea a month ago was alleviated due to the final failure, the Mirror Shadow Clan and the Sky Face Clan did not give up.
In fact, they calculated the number of Skyfire Crystals that appeared after the fact, and there were dozens of them.
Even if there are repetitions, the real number is probably not small. After all, more than twenty appeared at the same time the last time.
This number was enough for them to take it seriously, and even the Imperial Master came in person.
So almost the moment the Skyfire Crystal was swept out of the sea by the whirlpool, they had already locked the position. They thought it would disappear instantly like last time.
But after discovering that it didn't disappear this time, their goal was extremely clear and they headed straight there.
Xu Qing, who was far away from the whirlpool, was extremely fast throughout the entire process without any pause, but he soon discovered something was wrong.
There was a group of Mirror Shadow Clan monks in the distance. They seemed to be able to lock onto Xu Qing and intercepted him from another direction. Among them were four Golden Core cultivators and two of them emitted Nascent Soul Waves.
One is one calamity, one is two calamities.
