"I said, why are you so afraid of death, little cub?" the old man said and knocked on Mu Chen's head again, "Just do what I say, what is so much nonsense?"

Mu Chen was helpless, took a deep breath, and decided to do what the old man said.

It was at this time that Mu Chen understood what the old man's intentions were, since this was the case, it was indeed time to do it.

He glanced at the stone in his hand, and then threw it into the air with both hands!

Mu Chen's strength was very accurate, and the stone was thrown almost perpendicular to himself into the sky, but of course, there would still be some deviations when the stone fell, but fortunately, Mu Chen quickly found the location where the stone fell and stood in that place early.

All this was almost a matter of seconds, and Mu Chen just stood still and looked up, when he saw this big stone smashing towards his front door.

Mu Chen's eyes lit up, and an incredible scene really appeared again - this big stone was obviously on his head, and it could be said that he was completely close to him, but in such a few milliseconds, Mu Chen felt as if time had stood still, Mu Chen could even see the edges and corners on the big stone by the moonlight, but now was not the time to observe these, Mu Chen immediately stepped to the right and prepared to dodge.

However, before Mu Chen's feet stepped out, the old man's voice sounded: "You can't choose to escape this time, but you have to take the initiative to face it!"

Without having time to think about it, Mu Chen knew that time was not completely still, but was still passing slowly, because in such a stunned moment, Mu Chen found that this big stone was closer to him.

Take the initiative to face ...... Mu Chen muttered, yes, why is his first reaction in the face of such a situation always to run away? Since he has this ability, why can't he take the initiative to attack and resolve this crisis through his own efforts?

Yes, that's it! Mu Chen made up his mind, raised his hands violently, and grabbed the big stone that was about to smash into the door in front of him.

At this time, Mu Chen realized that the stone falling from such a high place should be difficult to catch, but this stone was the same as the time just now - it seemed to be slowed down, and it was not as difficult to catch as he imagined.

It is no exaggeration to say that this stone that fell from the sky and was about to smash into the door in front of him, Mu Chen caught him effortlessly just now!

When Mu Chen caught the stone steadily, he found that everything around him had returned to normal, time was not slowly passing, and the stone could once again be thrown in his hand - although he weighed more than ten catties, Mu Chen found that his strength seemed to have improved to a certain extent compared to just now.

"How?" said the old man, "I think you should be able to understand what has happened to your body now, right?"

Mu Chen nodded and said, "I think I should have discovered that in the ancient tomb, I got this ability because I touched the mechanism on the lid of the coffin, I think this ability should be able to slow down time - make a moment very long, it should be like this?"

Mu Chen said this confidently, but he didn't expect the old man to shake his head: "No, you didn't slow down time, time is still like that." ”

"Huh?" Mu Chen was a little puzzled, "I didn't slow down time, how could I catch this big boulder just now?" and I clearly felt that when the big boulder was about to hit my face, it fell very slowly, which means that time has indeed slowed down, otherwise I wouldn't have been hit just now?"

"You did resolve this crisis with your own abilities just now, but the truth is not what you think - you didn't slow down time, your abilities didn't change time!"

"If you don't change the time, then what's going on with all of this?"

"I said you kid," the old man sighed, "why can't you think about it from another angle—it's not that time has slowed down at all, it's that your speed has become faster, you understand?"

"My speed has become faster?!" Mu Chen was a little surprised, "Grandpa, are you sure that's the case?"

"Why do you have to ask me?"

"Uh...... Okay, but how do I think it's time slowing down?"

"It's not easy," the old man explained helplessly, "It feels like everything is full of speed to you, but from another point of view, isn't it just that your speed has become faster?"

"That's right," Mu Chen thought for a moment, and finally had a vague impression, "If you say that, it seems that it is indeed the case, which means that the mechanism I touched in the ancient tomb gave me this ability--faster! It is precisely because of this ability that I was able to avoid the deadly attack of that tomb robber, I should not be wrong to understand it this way now, right?"

The old man nodded with satisfaction: "This time there is nothing wrong, this is the truth, but aren't you curious about how you obtained this ability?"

"Uh......" Mu Chen smiled awkwardly, "Isn't it that mechanism or that ancient tomb that I have obtained this ability?"

"Of course not," the old man became serious in an instant, "how could that ancient tomb allow you to have such abilities?

After the old man's reminder, Mu Chen instantly remembered, and he said excitedly: "Yes, yes, grandfather, you are right, in fact, I also had a little guess at that time, but then so many things happened, and I didn't ask you for an answer in time, so I thought my guess was wrong, that is to say, in fact, I guessed correctly at that time - that cat's claw-like mechanism is actually the corresponding five-spirit divine beast, right?"

"Well," the old man smiled and nodded, "you kid, you've finally opened your mind, so that's what I'm talking about, since you've already met the first task and successfully completed it, then you can continue to complete the next four tasks, but of course, I would also suggest that you have to wait a week between each task to complete, but ah- I know you've never done it, forget it, as long as your body can stand it, why should I, an old man, nag so much?"

Mu Chen smiled: "Actually, I also know that you are for my good, but when I completed the snake spirit task at that time, I was indeed a little anxious, so I had to shorten the interval between the later tasks to three days, but now it seems that three days is the limit of my body's endure, and I can just adapt to the new body in three days, which will cause any negative impact on the body, so - I have already passed three days, grandpa, you can tell me the second task!"

"You think beautifully!" the old man rejected Mu Chen unceremoniously, "Finish your own affairs first, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Of course I'm in a hurry," Mu Chen hurriedly said, "It's not that you don't know! Every time I enter a stage, I can only choose one of them, you look at it now, this little problem still exists, and it will not appear when it is only in front of Qin Can, but until now, I haven't used it once, so you don't ...... Grandpa, you don't know, if I hadn't been explaining to Yuhe that day that I was too nervous and excited, otherwise I would have aroused her suspicion earlier!"
