Chapter 1715: Time Passes Like a Dream
An Lin knew that he was Dongfang Zhuangshi’s final hope.
He was the final straw that Dongfang Zhuangshi could cling onto; his final roll of the dice.
However, An Lin was also in despair. He didn’t even have any idea of what was going on, so how was he supposed to save Dongfang Mengjie?
Perhaps he would be able to figure something out if he were given some time, but now, time was something they sorely lacked. If Dongfang Zhuangshi couldn’t hold on, and the white stone lost its source of energy, then those black lines in the air would instantly destroy Dongfang Mengjie.
“An Lin… Please…” Dongfang Zhuangshi gritted his teeth and frantically burned through what little remained of his blood essence as he tried to rectify the situation, but his aura was slowly growing weaker and weaker, and the black lines were constantly converging toward the woman he was trying so desperately to save.
An Lin took a deep breath, and his heart was filled with distress. If Dongfang Zhuangshi wanted him to do something, then more background information was required; information that was not being provided to him!
However, An Lin knew that he didn’t have time to complain, so he racked his brain for a way to resolve this situation with what little information he had.
An enormous amount of time power had been injected into this world in an attempt to kickstart the flow of time, yet it had only triggered turmoil instead of actually kickstarting the progression of time. In the end, this was still all because this city had not been integrated into the current flow of time.
However, the only thing worthy of celebration was that time was no longer at a standstill. It was fluctuating up and down in an extremely unstable manner, but that meant that there was at least a possibility for it to flow in a normal fashion.
Just as An Lin was thinking, he suddenly felt that for an instant, the Dongfang Mengjie before his eyes was different again, as if something had overlapped with something. His line of sight passed through the window of the clinic out to the throng of people on the streets.
His pupils contracted drastically.
This scene was the exact same scene as when the time had first come to a standstill in this world.
Time could jump back to that original point?
However, the scenes outside the clinic transformed once again very soon.
But that didn’t matter as An Lin had already seen hope.
If this city could return to its original point in time and if he could integrate Dongfang Mengjie with that point in time, then she wouldn’t suffer anymore backlash.
If he could also make that point in time integrate with the absolute flow of time in the real world, then he would be able to save this world from its current state of limbo!
But the flow of time was jumping erratically without any rhyme or reason. How could he set it back to normal?
Wait… Integration?
Integration with the absolute flow of time?
An Lin’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“Don’t worry, Mengjie. Even if you’re destined to die, I’ll make sure to die before you.” All of Dongfang Zhuangshi’s energy had been depleted, and his blood essence was also very close to being completely expended. His body was extremely feeble, but his eyes were particularly bright as he stared at the woman in front of him, as if he would never get sick of looking at her.
“Dongfang Zhuangshi, I have a way to save her! You better hold on for me!” An Lin yelled.
Dongfang Zhuangshi shuddered upon hearing this, and tears welled up in his eyes. “Really? Mr. An Lin, are you serious?”
“I’m dead serious, so don’t you give up,” An Lin replied with a firm expression.
“I won’t give up! This is great! This is fantastic…” Dongfang Zhuangshi began to bawl his eyes out like a child.
He was already in despair and had prepared himself to die with Dongfang Mengjie after his blood essence ran out, but who would have thought that An Lin would really be able to figure out a way to rectify this situation?
Time was still jumping around in complete turmoil.
An Lin focused on his surroundings with intense attention.
He could detect every single change in time.
Time was quickly passing by.
Dongfang Zhuangshi was trembling uncontrollably. His blood essence really was on the verge of running out now, but the thought of being able to save Dongfang Mengjie spurred him on and kept him from falling into unconsciousness.
An Lin knew that time was quickly running out. The flow of time in this world was completely erratic, and he had no idea when it would jump back to its original point. It could revert to that point in time in the next second, or it could never revert back to that point ever again.
This was all down to luck now…
Sometimes, fate really was the decisive factor.
There were countless dao, and there were also countless directions in which fate could go.
Every seemingly insignificant action and every fleeting instant could give rise to countless possibilities.
An Lin set all other thoughts aside and focused his attention entirely on the fluctuation of time.
Finally, for a short second, that feeling he was looking for appeared again
The Dongfang Mengjie before his eyes suddenly overlapped with the rest of this world. Throngs of people milled about on the streets outside. Sunlight passed through the window, shining upon her beautiful features.
An Lin focused his gaze, and his aura instantly soared to its peak.
Golden ripples suddenly spread through the entire clinic before proliferating into infinity and beyond, encompassing the entire ancient city and freezing everything in time!
Time Stop!
The erratically fluctuating time suddenly ceased to fluctuate.
Everything was motionless aside from a certain white-robed man.
At that moment, An Lin was the ruler of the time within this city!
Everything was completely motionless aside from one man. He wielded the paramount power of laws, and the black lines converging toward Dongfang Mengjie suddenly disappeared in that instant!
The spell technique he had obtained from the river of time was the key!
The Time Stop Technique could stop all time within a certain range, and when the Time Stop effect wore off, the time within that area would reintegrate with the absolute flow of time of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
This was a unique property his spell technique possessed, and it was applicable to all situations!
In essence, the flow of time in this ancient city was disconnected from the absolute flow of time.
If An Lin could use his Time Stop Technique on this world, then following the conclusion of Time Stop’s effects, the flow of time in this ancient city would reintegrate with the absolute flow of time of the Great Dao of heaven and earth! In other words, An Lin’s Time Stop had forced the flow of time in this ancient city to reintegrate with the absolute flow of time!
One second later.
Sunlight passed through the window, spilling into the room.
A light breeze blew past, and the curtain within the clinic waved gently.
Tinkle, tinkle…
A set of wind chimes created an extremely pleasant sound.
“Osmanthus cakes; fresh, delicious osmanthus cakes. Three dollars per slice.”
“Mommy, I want to eat osmanthus cake.”
“Eat osmanthus cake my a*s, you spoiled brat! Eat your skewer of sugar-coated haws first!”
Bursts of laughter erupted outside.
A woman in a cream-colored dress was quickly sorting through medicinal ingredients with her nimble hands. However, her movements suddenly faltered, and she turned around, upon which her expression froze at the sight of the middle-aged man with Kirin horns standing behind her.
The middle-aged man was crying like a child.
“What’s wrong, Zhuangshi? Did you screw up your Pill Tower trial? So what? Real men shouldn’t cry like babies!” she scolded before giving him a slap to the face.
“Mengjie… I… I…”
Dongfang Zhuangshi wept tears of excitement and elation, and he suddenly felt a little dizzy.
“I think I’m a little anemic…”
His head began to ring, and his eyes rolled over as he collapsed to the ground and fainted.
