Limitless Anthroposcopy - C110
When Jiang Chu heard this terrifying commotion, he couldn’t help but be apprehensive. He hurriedly jumped onto a large tree and hid himself. A green ox about three meters tall and seven to eight meters long was running crazily. It had bumped into countless big trees along the way.
Behind the green ox, there were a few smaller ones that were also fleeing for their lives. Around them were gibbon, monkeys, lynx and countless other animals, as if there was some terrifying monster chasing them from behind.
From the tall tree, Jiang Chu looked down at the situation below and could not help but feel that it was a little strange. He did not know what kind of ferocious beast it was that even the gigantic green ox would not dare to face it.
Very quickly, Jiang Chu found out the answer. Suddenly, the green ox let out a blood-curdling screech as it was sent flying several meters into the air before it finally fell to the ground, blood flowing all over the place.
A wild beast suddenly appeared beside the green ox. It lifted its claws and slashed open the neck of the green ox. Jiang Chu looked over with rapt attention. This beast was shaped like a horse, but it had a white body and a black tail. It was nearly two meters tall, four to five meters long, had a single horn on its head, and had no hooves.
The green ox was hit in the stomach by one of the beast’s horns, lifted it up to the sky, and then ended its life with a single claw.
Seeing this monster, Jiang Chu couldn’t help but think of the Mountain Sea Scripture that he had read when he was young. One of them was like this: The mountain of the zither music has beasts like horses, while the other has a black tail with a white body, tiger teeth, claws, and a drumming sound.
Could it be that this monster is … refuting? This was just too terrifying. There was actually a beast of antiquity in this space! However, thinking about it, it was understandable. The water dragon spirit had cultivated for tens of thousands of years, and so it had swallowed countless creatures. He just didn’t know if there were any humans in this space.
At this moment, all he saw was a refutation. He didn’t know if there would be any more strange beasts. He had to be careful along the way. Looking at the strength of the strange beast below, he wasn’t sure if he could win.
The beast baron tore apart the carcass of the green ox to its heart’s content. Not long later, more than half of the carcass was eaten by the beast. This fellow was truly an excellent eater.
Seeing the cruel situation below, Jiang Chu couldn’t help but feel disgusted, and his throat made a noise. The beast suddenly raised its head and looked vigilantly towards the big tree where Jiang Chu was hiding.
Jiang Chu felt a wave of disgust in his heart. The facts proved that his guess was correct. The beast let out a loud thumping sound as it turned around and charged towards the big tree. Its speed was incredibly fast.
With a crack, the tree was pierced by the horn. The beast twisted its body and the tree cracked. Jiang Chu noticed that the situation was bad, so he leaped down from the big tree, and steadily landed on the ground, and stared at the huge beast in front of him.
Just a moment ago, he didn’t think that this fellow was tall or mighty at all. But now, facing him head on, he truly felt fearsome. He was like a steel monster.
Seeing Jiang Chu who was a weak human, the beasts did not mind, they raised their claws and waved it towards Jiang Chu. Jiang Chu snorted coldly, he did not dodge, but struck out with his Divine Lightning Talisman and instantly clashed with the claws of the beast.
To Jiang Chu’s great surprise, the Divine Lightning Talisman that had always been powerful only managed to swing its claws away, but it did not harm the beast in the slightest.
Jiang Chu’s attack had obviously angered the beast. Another claw came over, bringing with it the sound of wind and thunder, Jiang Chu did not dare to receive it directly, he turned around and dodged to the side, dodging the fatal claw.
Jiang Chu’s movements was fast, the beast was even faster, and arrived in front of Jiang Chu in an instant, the horn on its head striking towards Jiang Chu. Jiang Chu raised his hand and threw a Divine Lightning Talisman. With a loud boom, the beast was pushed back and he was pushed back a dozen steps by the rebound.
In this space, there was no earth energy to detonate, and treasures could not be used, so using it would only be used as a weapon. It might not even be enough to injure this beast, so’s only attack method was the Nine-word Mantra.
He did not dare to hesitate and shouted: “Fight!” A white light hit the beast’s head and exploded. The beast actually retreated two steps in pain, it glared at Jiang Chu, and was prepared to attack him the next time.
Just as Jiang Chu was about to take out the treasure that Chi Longzi had given him, a dragon’s roar sounded out. The water dragon spirit woke up and instantly separated itself from Jiang Chu’s body. Floating in the air, it spat out a 20 centimeter long ice pick from its mouth, flying towards the barrage of beasts.
The beast actually didn’t dare to receive the blow head on, and dodged it with a swoosh. Then he turned around and ran. With a few ups and downs, he had already disappeared. Jiang Chu exhaled a long breath. Just as he was about to speak, he heard another dragon roar from the water dragon spirit. From afar, there was a loud sound, and it sounded very tragic. The beast had probably failed to escape the Lord of Space’s punishment and escaped, injured. After doing all this, the water dragon spirit acted like nothing had happened and returned back to Jiang Chu’s body.
Jiang Chu took out a Flying Sword and cut dozens of pieces of green beef before putting it into his Qiankun bag. They were about to enter the yellow desert, which was barren. If they didn’t prepare food or fresh water, they would starve to death.
Although he had Fasting Pills to consume, he could not afford to waste them. Furthermore, there was Bai Ling, he was a carnivorous beast and had to eat it every once in a while.
After entering the yellow sand field for an entire month, Jiang Chu finally arrived at the spatial passageway for God Striking Whip. In the past two months, his face was covered in dust, and his hair and beard had grown in age, making him look like a wild man.
Counting the time, it had already been three to four months since they’d entered the Water Dragon Mystic Realm. He had been in the Song Dynasty for a year. He wondered what was going on outside, how was the work of Zhao Guangyi’s emperor?
When he thought about this demure hypocrite, Jiang Chu couldn’t help but grind his teeth in hatred. Zhao Kuangyin and him were sworn brothers, they were killed by Zhao Guangyi, how could he not avenge this enmity.
Since Chi Longzi could not do it, then let him avenge his brother. Jiang Chu always distinguished between gratitude and grudges, whenever there was enmity, he would take it back, and would never let Zhao Guangyi off.
Looking at the Space Node in the sky, Jiang Chu caressed the body of the water dragon spirit.
Xiao Long, just you wait, a thousand years later I will come to pick you up and give you your freedom. You better guard your big brother’s Golden Body and don’t let him get hurt, I’ll leave it to you.
The dragon flew around Jiang Chu and let out a clear dragon’s roar. Then, with all of his strength, he wrapped Jiang Chu’s body around and flew him towards the spatial node.
Jiang Chu chanted the incantation that Chi Longzi had passed on to him, and with one finger stroke, a circle of light immediately appeared at the space node. The dragon flung itself upwards, and Jiang Chu entered the halo of light, disappearing without a trace.
Jiang Chu walked out of the wooden tower and was immediately startled. The desolate scene that had occurred when he had first entered was no longer in front of him, the change was too great. Jade fences had already been built around the tower, and the bluestone floor was beneath it. There were even incense tables placed in front of the tower.
Looking around, he saw a wall in the distance with many trees and flowers growing on it. It was full of life and there were still pedestrians walking around.
Jiang Chu was very curious. Only a few months had passed, wouldn’t the changes in this place be too great? Without stopping, he walked along the bluestone paved road. This road was ten meters wide, and along the way, they should be able to reach the entrance. This place was located in the northeast of Bianzhou City.
After exiting the gate, Jiang Chu was surprised. In front of him was an official road, on the road were many soldiers riding horses, but looking at the armor, it didn’t seem like it belonged to an army of Song Dynasty. It was more like the clothing of the minority nationalities seen in the TV series, but it was hard to tell which ethnic group they belonged to.
Jiang Chu stopped an old man who was passing by and asked: Old sir, may I ask what year it is?
The old man looked at Jiang Chu and saw that he was dirty all over, he looked like a beggar and snappily said: “The Jinguo has been here for three years, are you really dumb?
With that, he ignored Jiang Chu and turned to leave. Jiang Chu was instantly dumbstruck. Wasn’t that 1140 A.D.? What the heck? He entered in 976 A.D., but in just a few months, it had already reached 1140 years? Did he teleport again?
No, I obviously came from here. It’s impossible for me to cross over. Could it be the Space Laws? Yes, it was definitely because the Water Dragon Mystic Realm’s space laws were different from Earth’s, and the time they took was also different.
If that was the case, wouldn’t the day inside be equivalent to a year on Earth? My god, if it’s like this, then Yue Fei had entered the Water Dragon Secret Realm for less than a thousand years, and only two years had passed.
