Chapter 4753: A Hawthorn Berry

“Even though living beings and spirits can enter each other’s worlds, they cannot stay there for long.”"So, like our true Ghost race, once we enter the mortal realm, we either hide inside a living bei...At this very moment, within the Heaven of Envoying Destiny, stood an old man with snow-white hair and a face etched with wrinkles.

But strangely, he was holding a candied fruit on a stick, with six hawthorns on it.

The old man seemed reluctant to eat the hawthorn, only occasionally sticking out his tongue to lick a few bites.

What should have been a child's behavior was displayed by an old man, making him look incredibly strange.

And Ginger Mountain stood before Ginger Cloud, his face filled with alarm, and said: "Brother, you can't go out, you can't fight this man."

There are two major teachings in the realm of suffering: the Tai Sui Sect and the Ling Kong Sect.

"One who masters the power of time, one who masters the power of space."

Among them, the number of disciples in the Tai Sui Sect was extremely small, no more than a few hundred people, but every disciple had an extremely strong innate talent for controlling the power of time.

After joining the Tai Sui Sect, the strong practitioners within the sect guided them, allowing them to master temporal powers more and more. Each of them became capable of defeating ten thousand with one.

This person is called the Shepherd Boy, a disciple of the Taisui Sect.

"His actual age isn't that great, but because he has cultivated the power of time, it has caused his appearance to become so aged."

As for his strength, no one knows, because everyone who has fought him is dead. Now, no one dares to fight him.

These days, although Jiangshen was worried about how Jiangyun treated those cultivators from the Bitter Domain, just like Nanfengchen, he knew Jiangyun's temper even better. Therefore, he didn't dare to stop him at all.

But this shepherd's background was truly illustrious, and he possessed the power to control time. When Jiang Yun faced him, he had no chance of winning at all.

Most importantly, if Jiang Yun killed the shepherd boy, the Taisui Sect would absolutely not let it go.

Because the number of disciples in the Tai Sui School is too small, losing one would be an unbearable huge loss for them.

Even the Shadow Pavilion wouldn't take on the task of killing disciples of the Taisui Sect.

The power of time!

After hearing Jiang Shan's introduction, Jiang Yun was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect that there would be a sect in Ku Yu dedicated to cultivating the power of time.

As for the might of this Taisui sect, Jiang Yun could also imagine it.

Time and space, those are the four strongest and most difficult to master forces recognized by everyone regardless of their region.

Among them, time power is the most powerful.

Throughout his cultivation journey, Jiang Yun had encountered few cultivators who mastered the power of time besides Ji Kongfan, the members of the Huang Clan, and Dao Wuming.

Even among the Waste Tribe, there aren't many who can truly master the power of time.

But for this Tai Sui sect to gather hundreds of people is truly remarkable.

Jiang Yun smiled and said to Jiang Shan: "It's okay, even if we avoid it today, we will definitely encounter it in the future. It's better to take this opportunity now to get a feel for it."

Before Jiang Shan could continue, Jiang Yun had already flashed before the shepherd.

Jian Yun's side, Ji Kongfan and Xuan Yuanxing also appeared one after another.

Over these days, facing the hardship of cultivators has been something they three have faced.

It's not that there are no more powerful cultivators in the myriad realms, but Jiang Yun doesn't want other people's hands to be stained with the blood of Ku domain cultivators, thus provoking a retaliation from Ku domain.

Although Jiang Yun's idea was somewhat self-deceptive, he insisted on doing so.

Jiang Yun transmitted his voice, simply telling Ji Kongfan and Xuanyuan Xing about the shepherd boy's origins.

After listening, both of them were a little surprised. They didn't expect that there would be an existence like the Tai Sui Sect in Ku Yu.

Just then, the shepherd finally bit into a hawthorn on the candied fruit, chewing greedily while pointing at Taishi Yao and the others with his hand. He gestured towards Jiang Yun and mumbled, "They... they were caught by you."

Jiang Yun was just about to speak, but Ji Kongfan had already spoken first: "Yes, it was me!"

The shepherd boy nodded and said, "Then you should be dead!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a hawthorn berry suddenly shot out from the candied fruit skewer in his hand and flew toward Ji Kongfan.

A seemingly ordinary hawthorn, as it streaks through the air, causes the surrounding seams of reality to ripple like water, creating endless waves.

But within the ripples, space is sometimes collapsing, sometimes healing, sometimes vanishing!

Just this scene alone made Jiang Yun and the others' expressions turn solemn.

Because it wasn't an ordinary hawthorn at all, but a magic weapon.

A weapon imbued with the power of time!

Especially this time power, there is no regularity to speak of, it is extremely chaotic.

If one were to be caught in the temporal turbulence created by this hawthorn, even they would likely find it difficult to survive.

As expected of disciples from the two great sects, their strength far surpasses that of the Bitter Domain cultivators killed by Jiang Yun and his companions these past few days.

"Boom!"

Before Shan Zhai could even reach the front, Ji Kongfan had already made his move. The Wheel of Annihilation appeared, releasing a torrent of Annihilating Wind that enveloped Shan Zhai.

However, these winds of annihilation had just approached the hawthorn tree when they were instantly turned to nothingness by the power of time. The hawthorn tree itself remained completely unaffected.

"Buzz buzz buzz!"

The Wheel of Extinction suddenly spun, radiating temporal energy within it, forming a time storm.

Ji Kongfan's mastery of time power, similar to the power of desolation, could accelerate the passage of time, causing individuals to lose their lifespan within a short period and turn into nothingness.

"Hmm"

The shepherd, upon seeing the spinning wheel of annihilation, wore a look of surprise on his aged face. He clearly hadn't expected it to contain the power of time within it.

But, in a flash, he grinned and said, "That's great!"

As soon as his words left his mouth, he suddenly raised his hand and, towards the time storm unleashed by the Annihilation Wheel, rapidly flicked his fingers in a continuous series of movements.

Suddenly, the time storm condensed abruptly, as if being grasped tightly by an invisible hand.

In just a breath's time, the whirlwind of time shrunk to the size of a lychee.

And, laughing, the shepherd boy flew over.

And the shepherd boy, holding up his candy apple on a stick with one less hawthorn berry, swayed it gently. With that, the time storm automatically strung itself onto the candy apple, transforming into—a hawthorn berry!

At this moment, Jiang Yun and Ji Kongfan's pupils shrank suddenly, finally understanding that the hawthorn berries were condensed by the power of time.

And this shepherd boy, even more so, treated the power of time as food to devour!

Time-eating monk!

If it weren't witnessed with their own eyes, Ginger Cloud and the other three would never believe that someone could actually eat time!

"Boom!"

Just then, Ji Kongfan suddenly reached out and grabbed the hawthorn berry that was already in front of him.

The next moment, Ji Kongfan's appearance began to change rapidly between youth and old age.

Three breaths later, Ji Kongfan's figure had vanished without a trace, while the hawthorn berry remained unscathed and continued flying towards Jiang Yun and Xuan Yuanxing.

"Never touch the hawthorn, nor use time's power to resist it."

Not far away, another Ji Kongfan stepped out, opening his mouth to speak and remind Jiang Yun and XUanyuan Xing.

Looking at this Ji Kongfan, a hint of surprise appeared on the shepherd boy's face again. He didn't expect that Ji Kongfan would actually have a clone.

Jiang Yun took a step forward and stood before Xuanyuan Xing. After all, Xuanyuan Xing was a cultivator of physical strength, his every move was powered by his own body, and he couldn't let him get close to the hawthorn berry.

Jiang Yun's palm moved, and a ball of fire shot out. Just like Ji Kongfan's just-cast annihilation wind, the flame vanished without a trace as soon as it approached Shan Zhai.

Next, Gingercloud unleashed a variety of attacks, all of which were ineffective.

Now, Ginger Cloud frowned, her mind racing as she pondered a countermeasure.

Although the shepherd's strength surpassed his expectations, he absolutely didn't believe that the other party was truly invincible. If so, wouldn't the Taisui Sect be the sole ruler in the bitter domain

It's just that I've never encountered an opponent like the shepherd who controls the power of time before, so I couldn't think of a way to counter him for a moment.

Meanwhile, Xue Wu Chang looked at the shepherd boy and furrowed his brows slightly, muttering to himself: "To feed on time... could it be him"lt deeply for him.Although they wished they could give all their strength to Jiang Yun, they also knew that this was simply impossible.All they could do was watch Jiang Yun with the same helpless, hea...
