Chapter 150 The Time Dragon King, Crossing Ten Thousand Years.
Jiang Nian fainted from the pain.
It was that kind of method again, utterly unbearable...
So the method written in the diary was actually the Time Dragon King's soul ring...
After an unknown amount of time, a sentence surfaced in his mind.
But before he could hear it clearly, he fainted again.
On the small island, besides a boy who had fallen asleep immediately, there were no other living beings.
At the bottom of the sea, a silver ball of light was hidden in Jiang Nian's left arm bone, without causing any ripples.
The Heavenly Dao Umbrella hovered above its owner's head, the sixth soul ring slowly emitting a dazzling light, a layer of blue ripples appearing on the paper, enveloping Jiang Nian's body, and then disappearing.
Meanwhile.
In the God Realm.
A man who had been observing Jiang Nian for a long time frowned slightly. He rubbed his eyes, feeling somewhat incredulous.
"What's going on?!"
"Where am I, a grown man?!"
The man scratched his head, looking into the distance, a guess flashing through his mind.
Jiang Nian opened his eyes, looking at the bustling street in front of him, and got up to touch his forehead.
"Wait... where did you get here?"
Brushing the dust off his clothes, he decided to grab something to eat; he was starving.
Luckily, he hadn't lost his storage soul tool, and he still had some money.
Jiang Nian bought a steamed bun and ate it, listening to the conversations around him.
Before long, he knew his location.
After filling his stomach, Jiang Nian found an inn to rest.
He took a shower and changed into clean clothes.
Sitting on the bed, he began to sort out his thoughts.
He must have traveled to 30,000 years ago using the power of the Time Dragon King.
In this time, what he desired had been born.
"It's truly amazing... I just don't know what I should do in this new timeline..."
Jiang Nian gave a wry smile and stopped thinking about it.
Raising his left arm, he could feel the power emanating from the Time Dragon King's soul bone.
He cleared his mind and began to study what skills this soul bone could grant him.
When he awoke again, Jiang Nian looked at his left arm, the word "time" flashing through his mind.
It was simple; like an ordinary person, he could easily return to an infant state or arrive at a state a hundred years in the future.
"Let's name it 'Reverse Flow' and 'Decline'..."
Jiang Nian rubbed his head. At this moment, the million-year-old soul bone wasn't so important to him anymore.
Obtaining that thing was the most crucial thing.
However, it was already dark outside.
Since things had come to this, he should go to sleep first.
The next day.
Jiang Nian set off. This time, he was going to the place called "Peach Blossom Island" from 30,000 years ago.
Fortunately, the place he came from wasn't far from there.
Weary from the journey, he hailed a carriage.
Jiang Nian stared blankly outside, suddenly missing his little golden retriever.
Suddenly, a cry caught his attention.
"Still crying?! Cry again and I'll beat you to death!"
"This little wench is quite pretty, I wonder how much she'd be worth to those nobles."
"A snake woman like this is worth far more than a weak girl."
"Hehehe, I'm also curious if this kind of woman is enjoyable..."
Jiang Nian frowned slightly, watching the merchants brush past his carriage, thinking, "Are human traffickings this brazen these days?"
Without a word, he flashed outside and stopped the carriage.
"Get out of the way! Where did this hothead come from?!"
With that, the man's long whip lashed out.
Jiang Nian remained silent, emanating a chilling aura. A gentle breeze swept through, freezing all the Soul Masters in the carriage.
Their eyes widened, seemingly unable to believe that such a powerful Soul Master could exist in this small town.
The girls, huddled together, looked at the gentle, refined man before them, their pupils trembling slightly.
Jiang Nian expressionlessly opened the cages. He had initially intended to give them some money and let the girls leave on their own.
However, considering that at this time, the Spirit Hall didn't seem to exist yet, and the Fallen Ones were rampant, social order was chaotic, and letting them go might lead to an even worse fate.
Jiang Nian raised his eyes, calmly surveying the nine girls before him.
Some were human, while others were snake women, fox women, and the like.
These half-human, half-beast beings seemed to be either due to mutated Spirits or human-beast hybrids, similar to wolf bandits.
He wondered, was Tang San considered a beastman?
Jiang Nian composed himself and said calmly, "Do you intend to leave on your own, or come with me somewhere?"
The girls remained silent, still huddled up, their eyes vacant.
One of the older girls suddenly burst into tears.
"Why...why did you save us?! It would have been better to sell us to wealthy families as concubines. How are ordinary, pretty women like us supposed to survive in this world?!"
Jiang Nian stared at them silently, then crushed the robbers' corpses, tossed down bags of money, and turned to leave.
"Benefactor!" A little girl with emerald green vertical pupils stood up. She lowered her head and said cautiously, "I...I'm willing to leave with you, to be your slave."
Jiang Nian stopped and carefully examined the half-human, half-snake girl.
Suddenly, she seemed vaguely familiar, especially those emerald green vertical pupils.
"What's your name?"
"Qing...Qingyu."
Jiang Nian paused, then smiled. "Hmm, come with me."
Two other girls also indicated they would follow him.
And so, on his second day in this timeline, he abducted... no, he rescued three little ones.
Five days later.
Jiang Nian was eating by the roadside with Qingyu and the other two.
The three little girls, who had been dirty before, now looked like little princesses.
Their clothes were brand new, and their cheeks were rosy.
"Brother Jiang Nian, where are we going?"
"Hmm... a small island, where I can find what I need."
"Oh."
Qingyu blinked her bright vertical pupils, looking down at her skirt that touched the ground.
Apart from her, the other two little girls were human.
And she...
"Ouch." Qingyu covered her head, looking at him with some confusion: "Brother Jiang Nian, did I... did I do something wrong?"
"No, eat your food."
"Okay."
Jiang Nian wiped his mouth, watching the three girls eat, and suddenly thought of Little Golden Retriever and the others.
He wondered how much time would flow after he returned. What if he returned to the time when Xiaoxue became a god? That would be hilarious.
At that time, he felt he might not be able to control it.
Rubbing his head, Jiang Nian casually toyed with the chopsticks in his hand, his gaze shifting between the three girls.
The remaining two girls were named Su Su and Ying Ying.
Since they were willing to follow him, he wasn't short of money.
"Are you full?"
"Mmm!"
The three well-behaved girls straightened their backs, looking at him intently.
"Okay, since you're full."
"Let's go...to the island now."
