Qi Ji saw that Gao Ninglu had already slipped away, and he didn't stay long. It's just that the courtyard that Gao Zhuo lent him to live in has been destroyed, and the City Lord's Mansion is also not a good place to go.

Qi Ji thought about it, directly took out the communication card, and contacted Kou Jianming. At this time, Kou Jianming had already learned about the Sanshan Monk's disturbance of the City Lord's Courtyard, and was looking for Qi Ji in Manyunye City.

Qi Ji briefly explained the situation to Kou Jianming, and Kou Jianming immediately rushed over and took Qi Ji to one of their Kou family's mansions. It's also quiet and elegant, but it's been left unattended for a long time, and it's become a bit old and desolate. Qi Ji didn't care about this, and directly found a fairly clean quiet room and began to study the hourglass. And all the outside affairs were handed over to Kou Jianming to take care of.

After Qi Ji arranged the formation in the quiet room, he drilled into the Xuantian Tower. Inside the Xuantian Tower, Xuan Lao was holding the hourglass and studying it over and over again.

Qi Ji asked, "Elder Xuan, can you see what this hourglass is famous for?"

Xuan Lao shook his head helplessly and said, "It's weird. This hourglass does not have the slightest spiritual power, even the immortal yuan I have tested, but there is no response. Is it really blind?"

Qi Ji immediately denied: "This is impossible, I can see very clearly through the eyes of gods and demons." The grains of sand in that hourglass, each with strange runes engraved on it, this hourglass is definitely mysterious. ”

Xuan Lao held the hourglass and turned it upside down in confusion, and the golden grains of sand rolled back and forth in it, looking no different from ordinary grains of sand.

Elder Xuan handed the hourglass to Qi Ji and said, "You can take a look with the eyes of gods and demons." ”

Qi Ji took the hourglass, and the eye of the gods and demons directly released a divine light, shooting out from Qi Ji's eyebrows, looking directly at the hourglass.

Under the pupil power of the Eye of the Gods and Demons, those grains of sand released a glittering golden light, and only the vine wood support outside did not show the slightest vision.

Qi Ji turned the hourglass upside down, and the sand particles in it flowed rapidly. Qi Ji stared carefully with the eyes of gods and demons, only to see that the sand grains in it were flowing slowly, and there was no vision revealed.

Qi Ji also couldn't help but sigh lightly, you must know that under the observation of the eyes of gods and demons, you can see through the essence of things. But now, under the observation of the eyes of the gods and demons, these grains of sand are indeed a little different, but they are not revealed.

Qi Ji had no choice but to withdraw the pupil power divine light of the Eye of Gods and Demons, shook his head and said, "I still can't see the mystery in it." ”

Xuan Lao thought for a while and asked, "You said that there are golden lines on the sand grains, what does it look like?"

When Qi Ji heard this, he directly condensed his true power at his fingertips, wanting to depict it in the air. But when Qi Ji carved this golden pattern, the true power continued to escape, and instantly dissolved into intangible.

At the same time, in Qi Ji's body, the Time Hongqiao on the Innate Divine Tree quietly grew. Although it is extremely slow, Qi Ji can feel the growth of Time Hongqiao.

Qi Ji immediately exclaimed: "This is related to the power of time, I feel the growth of the Time Hongqiao, but the speed is very slow. ”

Hearing this, Xuan Lao made a move with one hand, and from the depths of Xuantian Tower, he directly flew out of the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and placed it in front of Qi Ji. Xuan Lao said: "Draw it and look at it." ”

Qi Ji picked up the brush, dipped it with ink, and began to draw the golden lines on the white paper. However, this ordinary paper seems to have a mysterious force blocking it, and it can't even dip ink into it.

This time, even Xuan Lao sighed lightly, then took out a piece of stone essence, and slapped his hands suddenly. This piece of good quality stone essence was photographed at the end of the year and mixed into the ink. After stirring it well, he said to Qi Ji, "Try it again." ”

Qi Ji nodded, dipped the ink with mixed stone essence powder, and drew on the paper again. This time, the paper absorbed the ink, but instead of black, it was golden, exactly the same color as the sand grains.

When Qi Ji finished drawing this pattern, the paper suddenly flashed with golden light, and the golden lines suddenly flashed. But the next moment, the paper turned into ashes, as if it had gone through thousands of years, and was instantly decayed into a pile of paper ashes.

Xuan Lao's eyes widened, and he said excitedly: "I found a treasure, I really found a treasure." ”

Qi Ji hurriedly asked, "Elder Xuan, what's going on?"

Xuan Lao said: "As the instrument spirit of the Xuantian Tower, I naturally understand every formation of the Xuantian Tower. This golden rune is very similar to several runes in the ashram hall. And it seems, more complete than the runes in the ashram. ”

After Qi Ji listened, his eyes suddenly lit up. What is the place of the ashram, it is a treasure place that can control the flow of time and turn one day into ten days. This also shows that there is a law of time in it.

Xuan Lao is just the instrument spirit of the Xuantian Tower, although he can see those formation patterns, but he doesn't know what's going on, and he doesn't know why. And now that these golden patterns are mutually corroborated, it can be inferred that those formations are the core of the retreat hall.

The same inference proves that the sand grains in this hourglass also contain this law of time.

When Qi Ji thought of this, he immediately became ruthless, and directly used his palm to smash the hourglass. The golden quicksand was suddenly scattered on the ground, and Qi Ji carefully picked up one of them and injected his true power into it.

However, Qi Ji's true power does not have the subtlety of its sand grains, and it is still an ordinary golden grain of sand.

Qi Ji thought about it, and poured the power of gods and demons into the sand. This time, the golden sand grains suddenly burst into a burst of brilliance, stabbing Qi Ji unable to open his eyes. When the brilliance disappeared, Qi Ji opened his eyes and looked at his hand, the golden grains of sand disappeared.

Qi Ji looked at Xuan Lao suspiciously, but Xuan Lao's eyes widened and he looked at Qi Ji in dismay.

Qi Ji asked puzzledly, "Elder Xuan, what happened just now?"

Xuan Lao said excitedly: "Time ...... Your time froze for a moment. ”

Qi Ji didn't understand Xuan Lao's words, and asked suspiciously, "Xuan Lao, what are you talking about?"

Xuan Lao immediately said: "You are now pouring the sand with the power of gods and demons, and then the sand grains are coming towards me. ”

Qi Ji thought about it and knew that Xuan Lao would not let go without it. So, Qi Ji picked up a grain of sand, poured the power of gods and demons into it, and slammed it towards Xuan Lao.

I saw the golden sand grains bursting with golden light, bursting beside Xuan Lao, and when Xuan Lao was like a wood carving, he stood motionless in place.

And this time, the golden light did not disappear immediately, but continued.

Qi Ji shouted in surprise: "Elder Xuan, what are you doing?"

Xuan Lao still didn't react, it was still the same as just now.

Qi Ji walked towards Xuan Lao, pushed Xuan Lao, and found that Xuan Lao really didn't react at all. At this time, Qi Ji's heart suddenly woke up, and he thought of what Xuan Lao said just now, "Time has frozen. This grain of sand burst out of the rules of time, freezing Xuan Lao's time. ”
