Ren Xing and Lifa walked through the ruined city of Wall, the smell of sulfur and blood stimulated people's breathing, surrounded by dilapidated buildings and solid barbed wire, the occasional few bandaged residents walking on dirt roads, and more busy medical teams and logistics staff, and Wayward and Lifa seemed a little abrupt among these people.

"Did the soothsayer really say that the time rift was on the outskirts of Wall City?" Ren Xing asked, they had already walked a long way, and there was no one around them, but there was still no trace of the time rift.

"That's right." Lifa replied.

"It won't be the old woman who cheats us." Ren Xing asked hesitantly with his hands crossed behind his head.

"Probably not." Lifa's answer was a little worried, if she really couldn't find the time rift here, the Demon Zero at that time would probably have no chance with her.

"Wait, what's over there?"

Ren Xing looked ahead, and among the barren weeds, there was a patch of grass that was different in color, and the weeds, which should have been burnt yellow, were dyed red like blood.

He walked up quickly, cleared the red-stained weeds, and found a corpse lying inside, his head detached.

The owner of this corpse is one.

"Looks like someone has already gotten here before us." Lifa's face was heavy.

"Well, the good news, though, is that the rift in time shouldn't be far from here." Ren Xing brushed aside the weeds and continued to walk forward.

The breeze blows, and the weeds rise and fall, revealing crimson soil from time to time.

Carefully observing the surroundings, Ren Xing suddenly noticed that there was a weed in front of him that was obviously abnormal, as if it existed in two spaces.

It swayed in the wind at a speed that was obviously half a second slower than other weeds, and it looked like it had a strong sense of disobedience, and it was still standing upright despite the weeds around it being bent and bent by the wind.

Walking there quickly, Ren Xing stretched out his hand to the weeds, only to find that his hand had disappeared out of thin air, although he could still feel the presence of his hand, but he couldn't see it in his sight.

"Yes." This area where the speed of time is different from the surrounding flow is the gateway to the temporal rift.

Walking into it with Lifa, I felt the time change around me, and in the blink of an eye, I was already in another dimension.

[You have entered the space in this world - the rift of time, where the Demon of Time and the Zero Form was born, please explore by yourself]

The system prompt sounded, and Ren Xing also understood that he should be in the right place.

However, as soon as I came in and had not yet gained a firm foothold, a sense of crisis conveyed by my intuition came to my heart.

Hurriedly pushed Lifa away, rolled to the right, and where he was just now, there was a demon of time standing at this time.

This is just an ordinary demon of time, with a pair of wide wings on his back, a bloated figure, and no facial features that resemble a human in the slightest, which makes Ren Xing instinctively disgusted.

"Die!" Ren Xing's Black Abyss Blade slashed out, and the Demon of Time was killed.

"There are still remnants of the Demon of Time here, it seems that you should be careful." Ren Xing walked towards these and continued to walk forward.

The space in the time rift is like a labyrinth, the upper floor is an unbreakable barrier, the white walls on both sides form a corridor, and there are countless forks in the crooked corridor, the walls cannot be destroyed, and it is not easy to find the Demon of Time Zero Form.

In front of you is the first fork in the road, if you walk in with your head bored, you are likely to get lost in it, there are sometimes demons lurking around, you are pressed for time, and it is not a good thing to drag it out for too long.

"Make a mark." Lifa proposed.

"Okay." Without much thought, Ren Xing used the Black Abyss Blade to carve a hole in the ground to prove that he had been here, and then chose one of the forks in the road to mark again.

However, Ren Xing didn't think about why the few people who came in front of him didn't choose to leave a mark since there were already people in front of him.

The two of them continued to walk forward, wary of the sneak attack of the Time Demon, leaving marks along the way, slowly approaching the center of the time rift.

Ten minutes later, Sand Crocodile and Lillian also came to the front of the time rift.

"You're here, you know?" The sand crocodile knocked Lillian on the head with his large, unlit cigar.

"Yes!" With the last of her courage, Lilian raised her head and closed her eyes in a military salute.

The sand crocodile did not stop, and directly entered the time rift, and Lilian, who was left outside, breathed a long sigh of relief, slumped on the ground, sweat soaked her clothes, and along the way, the momentum of the sand crocodile made her breathless.

And the sand crocodile who went inside saw the corpse and bloodstains of the demon next to him, and knew that Ren Xing and Lifa had come here one step ahead of him.

Walking briskly forward, a smile appeared on the corner of the sand crocodile's mouth, and a fork in the road in front of him was marked.

"Not too smart, boy."

Hurry along the mark, the sand crocodile all the way and the constant crawling and exploring, the distance between them is quickly pulled in.

Ren Xing and Lifa were still wandering through the labyrinthine corridors, struggling to find a way to get around, when they suddenly heard a rush of footsteps behind them.

Ren Xing immediately reacted, he was followed, and the mark he made was to let the other party catch up with his guiding signs, and his decision seemed to be self-defeating.

"Who's coming?" Ren Xing thought silently in his heart, he now had two choices, one was to face the enemy head-on and face the enemy directly, and the other was to hide his traces and continue to sneak and avoid the other party. However, this also means that he will not be able to continue to search for the Demon of Time Zero through the mark, and he may even be preempted by the other party.

Two seconds later, Ren Xing made up his mind - fight, fight hard.

In fact, there is no second choice, if you escape at this time, not only lose the right to make a mark, but also give up the initiative, your own avoidance represents a second avoidance, the other party can go to the place where the Demon of Time Zero is located faster by marking, and you can only avoid the other party, and even the place marked by the other party does not dare to go.

Judging by the footsteps, there should be only one person on the other side, and after he came to this world, only a few demons of time had a single strength stronger than him.

And the humans of this world, they don't have any special abilities, they only rely on steam mecha to fight, so far Ren Xing has not met anyone stronger than himself, Ren Xing is confident that in one-on-one, he can win the other party.

What's more, now that Lifa is by his side, there is no way to lose no matter how he thinks about it.

"Fight!"

Ren Xing was firm in this thought, but this thought was also his last thought.

A crocodile-shaped mechanical arm suddenly appeared around the corner, breaking Ren Xing's neck in an instant, and Ren Xing didn't even have time to pull out the Black Abyss Blade to defend.

Lifa looked at the attacking man and the dead Ren Xing in astonishment, and did not dare to hesitate, and directly activated the ability to go back in time, and the time went back three seconds ago.

Everything around him calmed down, but Lifa was still a little afraid, and at the moment when he went back in time, the man stared at him, and the fierce eyes were deeply imprinted in his mind.

Ren Xing also came back to his senses, although he didn't understand what was happening, but his body's instinct told him again that if he didn't move again, he would definitely be in great danger.

Listening to the approaching footsteps, Ren Xing took out the Black Abyss Blade and swung it towards the corner of no one as if in foresight.

"Bell"

The black abyss blade collided with the mechanical arm, bursting out with violent sparks, feeling the huge impact on the arm, Ren Xing fell back four or five steps, in the competition of strength, Ren Xing was not an opponent at all.

"Oh, boy, did you even block a blow?" The sand crocodile spat out a puff of smoke rings, "Was it foreknowledge in advance, or was it the little girl behind you who helped you?" ”

"What!" Ren Xing was also reminded by him to realize the fact that he might have really died once.

The sand crocodile's eyes stared at Lifa and said playfully, "Time Walker, are you scared to see me again?" ”

Under the huge momentum of the sand crocodile, Lifa was a little unsteady, she stared at the sand crocodile, her eyes filled with hatred.

This man has at least a thousand of his own people.

He is known as the time harvester and one of the only two trump cards of the empire - the sand crocodile.

"Don't get complacent too soon!" Ren Xing roared angrily, lifted the Black Abyss Blade and rushed forward, and at the same time glanced back at Lifa, asking her to cooperate with him.

Lifa nodded, her eyes bursting with white light.

"Error!"

While Ren Xing approached the sand crocodile, Lifa's "error" acted on the sand crocodile.

The sand crocodile fell into a trance for a moment, and at the same time, the black abyss blade in Ren Xing's hand slashed in front of the sand crocodile.

"That's it! One hit to solve you! Ren Xing thought confidently, although it was the first time for him and Lifa to cooperate in this way, their tacit understanding was very good, and the timing was just right, even if the sand crocodile raised his arms to defend, it would definitely be too late.

However, just before the Black Abyss Blade was about to touch the sand crocodile, Lifa saw a smile on the sand crocodile's face, and that smile was aimed at herself.

Worry and panic flashed through Lifa's consciousness, but reason still told himself that at this distance, the opponent would definitely not have time to defend, at most he would block Ren Xing's knife while being hit, and even if he did this, he would definitely suffer great damage.

No matter how he calculated, he couldn't escape this attack.

Ren Xing's black abyss blade smashed into the sand crocodile's head as expected, directly breaking its neck, and the sand crocodile didn't even raise his arm to block, planning and ending the battle perfectly......

No, what was broken along with the neck bone of the sand crocodile was Ren Xing's waist.

At the moment when Ren Xing was about to attack the sand crocodile, the sand crocodile did not choose to block or dodge, but chose to attack reflexively, and at the last moment when his consciousness remained, he used his mechanical arm to clip Ren Xing's waist.

"How so?" Lifa froze in place, she never thought that the other party's solution would be like this.

Looking at the two corpses lying on the ground, Lifa's brain came to a standstill, if she chooses time to go back to resurrect Ren Xing, she will also resurrect the sand crocodile, which will not only consume a huge amount of time power, but also return to the scene just now, and there is still no chance of winning on her side.

And if you are selfish and give up your life, will it be regarded as killing your enemies and removing a major obstacle to the destruction of the narrow space of time?

Choose one of the two, and the decision is in Lifa's hands.
