398 The Eternal Land
Doubts, incomprehension, grievances...... Complex emotions are entangled in Sawyer's mind, and there are countless questions in his heart, but the answers are like a cloudy starry sky, invisible and intangible.
Although Sawa only listened to the conversation between Nishizawa and the traverser, he could also hear that the unknown traverser should know himself, and it was not an ordinary understanding, at least he had intersected with him for a certain period of time.
But the problem is that Sawyer has been reminiscing since he crossed over, always thinking that he was swept up in time because of the collapse of the world, but he never remembered when he had seen such a guy.
"Could it be that I met that guy in the time before I crossed over?"
Sawyer was taken aback by his reasoning, and his brow furrowed even more.
This inference seems absurd, but it is not impossible, after all, the timeline of the world of Nairn is stabilized because of the time dragon god Aka, and it is actually very fragile, otherwise there would not have been so many dragon breaks.
In particular, Sawyer is now located in the long river of time, the most critical and chaotic place in the timeline of the entire Nayn world, in addition to the huge difference between the flow rate of time and the present world, there may even be a situation where the "flow" of time is opposite to the current world, and there are all kinds of strange time wonders, if Sawyer accidentally returned to the past in the long river of time, this is not a strange thing.
Just as Sawyer was thinking, Hunter next to him suddenly snorted, which made Sawyer believe his guess a little.
Today, Sawyer's location is very close to the core area of the Long River of Time, not to mention the speed of time flow is more than five times that of the current world, and there are often small range of time anomalies, such as a sudden acceleration or deceleration of time in a specific area.
However, due to the short "duration", the danger of this temporal anomaly is not great, and the duration of the temporal anomaly is no more than one minute based on the time in the surrounding "normal speed" area.
However, there are still dangers, such as being at the junction of the time anomaly area and the normal speed area, the body will be imprisoned in place because of the different time flow rates of different parts, if the strength is not enough to offset the impact of jet lag on the body, then the only outcome is to die on the spot.
Think about it, if the heart is located in an area with a fast flow rate of time, pumping blood frantically, and the blood rushes into the area with a slow flow rate, the reflux speed cannot keep up with the pumping speed, and it is easy to produce anemia, blood pressure soaring, and even blood vessels may burst.
And that's just a blood system.
Of course, a half-step legend or a strong person with a higher realm can use his own strength to fight against the difference in the flow of time and avoid danger, and as long as he resists this time, the rules of comprehension will also be baptized by the power of time, and slightly deepening the comprehension of the rules can be regarded as a "welfare".
Just now, Hunter happened to be on the border of the time anomaly area, and he suffered a loss, and it was just a loss, you know, the baptism ability of the power of time has no effect on sword cultivation.
The simple time anomaly is not worth worrying about Sawyer, but the meaning of the time anomaly makes Sawa very anxious, this is not the first time that the time anomaly has appeared, it has already appeared once three days before the present world, and the meaning of this is ......
As mentioned earlier, the speed of time flow in different areas of the long river of time varies greatly, but in general, there are certain rules, such as the change of time flow speed is always increasing or decreasing, and if you keep moving in the direction of the fastest increase in time flow speed, you will enter the core area of the long river of time - the eternal land.
Of course, this is not to say that the river of time is a circular or spherical space, the river of time is a special dimension, and the theory of the direction of the present world does not hold up here, for example, a person is standing in a certain place in the river of time, facing the direction of the fastest increase in the speed of time, that is, pointing to the direction of the eternal land, when he takes a step to the left, the direction of the eternal land may be behind him or other directions.
Even as you move towards the Eternal Land, the direction to the Eternal Land is constantly changing, and it is possible that you have gone around a standard circle and arrived in the Eternal Land from the "periphery" of the long river of time.
The Eternal Land naturally has its attractions, but the others are not Sawyer, and they cannot perceive the proportion of time flow between their location and the present world, so they need some signs to determine whether they are close to or have arrived in the Eternal Land, and the time anomaly is one of them.
When there is a time anomaly in the surroundings, it means that you have begun to approach the Eternal Land, and after following the direction of the fastest increase in the speed of time for a "period of time", you can reach the Eternal Land.
The most striking sign of entering the Eternal Land is the phenomenon of time reversal.
The so-called phenomenon of time reversal is not to go back to the past against the timeline, but to act on the target by the force of time, if it acts on the object, it will slowly change the object to its original form, such as turning an ancient weapon into a pile of ore, etc.
And if it acts on people, it will make people start the process of reverse growth, of course, the strength of a body will also regress accordingly, when Sawyer saw the relevant introduction from the information given by Serua, he jokingly called it "a good place to wash points".
But at the beginning, Sawyer only regarded it as a joke, and he never thought that he would also be close to the Eternal Land.
Maybe for some strong people, especially for guys who want to make big news, the Eternal Land may be an ideal place to make Dragon Break, but for "weak people" like Sawyer who can't move freely in the long river of time, it's a place of lore.
The biggest feature of the Eternal Land is the word "eternal", which does not mean that you can reach the eternal realm by entering the Eternal Land, but that in the Eternal Land, the only eternal existence is time.
Compared to the Eternal Land, time in this world and other parts of the Long River is almost "static", and even if a hundred years have passed in the Eternal Land, this life will still stand still at the moment you enter the Eternal Land.
For Sawyer, once he enters the Eternal Land, it is no different from sentencing him to death, even if Seruas can find them in the Eternal Land in the end, he can only find their "final location", at that time, they have long since turned into a pile of dry bones in the endless years, and finally turned into an eternal crystallization in the form of a human being, this is the power of time, even the vampires who claim to be immortal cannot avoid it.
As for cultivating desperately in the Eternal Land, and after being promoted to the Mythical Realm, he will gain the ability to leave the Eternal Land?
That's even more impossible.
If the power of time in other places in the long river of time will baptize the rules of comprehension and deepen the comprehension of the rules, then the power of time in the eternal land will only have the effect of suppressing other rules, perhaps because the time rules of the eternal land are too strong, in the eternal land, let alone cultivation, even the rules can't be felt!
