Old man Xu's eyelids jumped when he was seen by Ji Xun's eyes.

The old man apparently didn't realize that he was completely unaffected by the strange time realm on the train.

But the hunter was in the dust, and he didn't want to take any chances.

This guy's shrewd little eyes were full of vigilance, and he shirked and said, "Hey, hey, Jixun boy, I'll tell you, don't beat my idea." My old bones can't stand the toss."

Ji Xun chuckled and shook his head, he had long been accustomed to the old man's habitual rhetoric, and interrupted: "Senior, you don't need to take any risks. Wait a moment for the conductor to come, please help us ask how to get off the train. ”

His tone was calm.

It was as if the white hairs that were popping up on his head didn't make him feel the urgency of his life at all.

But in order to make Old Man Xu feel that time was pressing, he also added: "Of course, before that, if we haven't died." ”

Caterina on the side also understood something completely when she heard this.

In rule-based calamities, it is usually necessary to break the corresponding rules before you can leave.

But in the field where the "Law of Time" is formed, several people don't have any ideas to crack it.

But luckily, there is a special presence in their ranks.

Old Man Xu doesn't seem to be affected by the time realm, and he can still talk directly to the conductor.

In fact, there is a clever game-breaking plan here.

As Ji Xun said, he could let Old Man Xu get the answer on how to get off the train directly from the conductor.

Thinking of this, Caterina also secretly sighed that her "life" was good, and she met this senior companion.

Otherwise, you might be trapped here.

However, the scheme is wonderful.

If an old man doesn't drop the chain, there is a high probability that it is feasible.

But.

When Old Man Xu heard this, his eyes turned and turned, as if he was weighing the risks, but as if he thought of something, the old face turned into a mess.

Che Er reminded: "Grandpa? ”

Old man Xu didn't hide it, with a bitter face, he said truthfully: "It's okay to ask." But how do I ask? I don't know what it says. ”

“.”

As soon as these words came out, it was as if the pause button had been pressed.

The expressions of the three people sitting together froze on the spot.

But a moment later, Ji Xun chuckled self-deprecatingly.

I almost forgot that if this old man hadn't encountered a mortal situation by himself, he wouldn't have been able to remember those skills.

He had unconsciously understood the Talen language before, but now he asked him to speak, but he couldn't say it.

Old man Xu himself seemed to feel that he couldn't help, his old face was a little embarrassed, and he looked at Ji Xun with an inquiring look: Then what should we do now?

An almost safe plan to save his life was rejected, but Ji Xun did not show much disappointment.

After all, it has not yet reached the point of mortality, and this method can be used again after a while.

Instead, he smiled lightly: "Well, no, no, no." Originally, I also thought that I would get off the bus like this, as if something was missing. ”

Hearing this, Caterina frowned slightly, becoming more and more confused.

Can this guy still laugh?

However, she pondered for a moment and said to herself, "What are the shortcomings? ”

Ji Xun said: "I've been thinking about a question, that is, the meaning of the existence of this [Netherworld Train]. ”

Thinking of something, he said directly: "It is a means of transportation for ferrying, taking people to Xia Mucheng." It is neutral in itself, but it has a murderous invisible temporal realm, so the meaning of its existence seems more like a sifting. Screen a few eligible people before you reach your destination. ”

"Hmm."

Caterina nodded, too, feeling that it made sense.

But what does this have to do with where they are now?

What Ji Xun saw was not the predicament on the car, but the place called Xia Mucheng, and said: "So I think if we can't even crack the field on this car, even if we reach the end, we will encounter some more difficult problems." Although this secret realm is not an extradimensional space, it seems that it was deliberately left by some ancient powers. ”

If only it were just a seal, it would be nice to create some mortal traps.

Since I have made this ghost car that is not certain to die, but very special.

Then there must be something else.

It's just that he hasn't figured it out yet.

Caterina asked expectantly, "Do you have an idea?" ”

Ji Xun shook his head and said freely: "No." ”

“.”

Caterina gave him a blank look.

No?

How can you still laugh?

It was at this moment of staring at the past that she realized that she had never seen any panic and despair in a desperate situation on Ji Xun's face.

This made her feel very strange: this guy is not afraid?

Ji Xun understood her complaining eyes, and teased: "Do you think that it is because you are going to die that you feel that time is becoming more and more precious?" Got all the ideas clear? ”

"I don't think so."

Caterina didn't feel the pleasure of dancing on the Scythe of Death.

She gave a speechless expression and fell back into deep thought.

At the moment, this situation seems to be a dead end.

In fact, there is also a B plan, which is to let Old Man Xu go to other carriages to see the situation.

Someone else will die, but this guy probably won't.

But Ji Xun knew that Old Man Xu was definitely unwilling, so he didn't speak.

Or maybe it's not time to speak.

Caterina thought about it too, but she knew she wasn't in a position to speak.

The four of them stared at each other like this.

The BUG can't be stuck, so you can only think of a normal way to break the game.

They had to find a way to figure out the breakthrough in the decryption of this realm of time.

Che Er reminded: "I feel that time seems to flow faster"

Ji Xun was even more direct, and began to meditate on his knees.

It turns out that in this field, you have to be like a turtle, the less you move, the longer you live.

After all, there are negative examples in front of you.

Even when a few people were chatting, the few hunters not far away who were panicking everywhere looking for a way to get off the car were already old.

Outside the train, waves of water washed over the train.

This feeling of looming death can drive people insane.

Finally, I couldn't help it, and someone tried to go to another carriage.

However, the result is exactly the same.

The man went out from the front and came back from behind.

Then it quickly aged, and the corpse turned into a cloud of dust and disappeared.

Seeing that there was no hope of survival, the few who remained alive shot everywhere to vent, and all kinds of hysterical destruction. I want to try my luck to find a solution to the situation.

Their violent actions also exacerbated the rate of death.

It didn't take long for the other five hunters who were alive, two hunters who didn't live long because they were originally yellow-faced and thin-skinned, and they also ran out of life and died violently and turned into powder.

And the condition of Ji Xun and the four of them is not very good.

Ji Xun's hair was almost completely white, and he was about to die on the spot at any time.

But his expression still didn't change, as if there was a strong will.

It looks like it's going to die, but it can't be dead.

Caterina next to her even felt that this guy didn't seem to have the fear of a normal person.

Where did others understand Ji Xun's thoughts at the moment.

If you hadn't come to this transcendent world, where would you have encountered such a wonderful experience in your previous life.

Moreover, if you don't break the game, you will die.

The more clearly I perceived the impending death, the clearer it became that multiple thoughts in my skull were like volcanic eruptions.

Ji Xun's face overflowed with a bright smile.

Looking at Ji Xun's more and more gray hair, Che Er's eyes could not hide his worry.

He doesn't lose his memory.

Che Er was raised by Old Man Xu since he was a child, and he even knew his strength better than Old Man Xu himself.

It's not that strong, though

But there are always some critical moments that can be turned into a disaster.

He knew that his grandfather was very powerful.

He finally couldn't hold back and asked, "Grandpa, have you thought of any way to get out of here?" ”

Among the four, Ji Xun's physical appearance has changed dramatically.

But only Old Man Xu still has the same sallow old face.

At this moment, everyone was sure that this old man was really not eroded by the time realm at all.

In this way, three of the four of them are likely to die here one after another.

Only this old man can get out alive.

Ji Xun didn't feel anything wrong, but seemed to respond to what Caterina said: if you are contaminated with this old man's great cause and effect, you will die if you don't have luck.

I didn't die before, it seems that the time has not come.

Now, it's here.

The more he was on the verge of death, the clearer the thoughts in Ji Xun's mind became.

That obsessive thought made him want to solve the puzzle, which was also the biggest will support for him to hang his life without dying violently.

And I don't have any thoughts of getting stuck in bugs anymore.

The aura is bursting like a tide.

But.

After all, it seems that something is missing.

"Nope."

Old man Xu himself was a little anxious.

He didn't have any bad intentions, but he just remembered that he was really an ordinary hunter.

Now seeing that people are really going to die, this old man also feels a little guilty in his heart.

It seems that something is in my mind, but I can't say it.

He turned his face to look at Che Er, who had changed from a teenager to a young man, and muttered, "What a strange feeling. In the blink of an eye, you kid has become so big. It was as if I was dizzy and hallucinating. ”

Che Er frowned when he heard this, he just wanted to break the game as soon as possible.

Caterina didn't care.

However, as soon as these words came out, a repeated beam of light pierced the oppressive dark clouds.

Ji Xun suddenly opened his eyes and said in surprise: "Time. It's a cognitive delusion! ”

It was the moment of meditation just now that he had a lot of thoughts and deduced countless plans.

But nothing seemed feasible, and his brain was like a balloon that was about to burst.

And Old Man Xu's words are like the needle that punctures a balloon.

Ji Xun already had the entry of the demon mark "Perception +10", as well as the blessing of the great feeling that death was on the verge of, and he had an epiphany in an instant!

See the sun!

Hearing Ji Xun's soft drink, the three of Caterina also cast puzzled and expectant glances.

Ji Xun's eyes were shining, and he said excitedly: "If you want to break the rules in this Calamity Realm, you have to know what the essence of this 'Time Realm' is. ”

Hearing this, the three people in the same seat were stunned and unconscious.

Caterina listened and asked expectantly, "Do you understand the rules of breaking this calamity space?" ”

Ji Xun nodded and said bluntly: "Yes! The time on this train is a cognitive illusion! As long as we recognize this, we will no longer be affected by this calamity. ”

Che Er was already very sensitive to time, and when he heard this, he showed a thoughtful expression.

Caterina was puzzled.

Ji Xun organized the language in his heart and described what he felt as much as possible.

"The time we feel, not the real time!"

"It's like a story in a book," he says. Even if no one opened the book, the story was already in the book. This is the storyline in the book, which is the length of time in a specific dimension. However, when a hand turns it over, the concept of time emerges in another dimension. The faster it turns, the faster the timeline in the book advances. It's like this ghost train, it accelerates, and so does our perceived time! And we are in the carriage, like the characters in the book, which will become faster with the speed of turning the book, and feel that life is passing by rapidly. This is actually a cognitive illusion! ”

With this explanation, Che Er's crystal eyes became brighter and brighter, and he vaguely understood it completely.

Katerina's eyes also sparkled, as if she had grasped something.

Ji Xun continued: "If we can't see through this illusion, when the train arrives, it's like turning the last page of the 'book', and our story will end here." If death is the end, then the characters in the book have already died on the last page! We're going to die too! ”

After a pause, he continued: "But the truth is, from the first page again, the characters in the story, they are still there! Therefore, the essence of time on the Nether Train is an illusion of cognition. And not the real 'time' itself! At least not the time of our reality dimension! ”

"I can't accurately understand the nature of the 'real time' of the world we live in. But it can be confirmed that the time field on the Nethertrain where we are currently located is this kind of 'low-latitude time'! The acceleration of the flow of time is only an illusion of our cognition, not the actual passage of time. It's like a dream, you wake up from a dream, and everything is an illusion. ”

"The way to break the game in this realm of calamity is to recognize the time in the realm of calamity is an illusion of perception!"

“.”

As soon as Ji Xun's words fell, a magical scene happened.

The three of Caterina looked at Ji Xun's original white hair, which turned black visibly to the naked eye.

In an instant, the appearance has changed back to the way it was when I first got in the car.

Even if he didn't look at it, Ji Xun felt the changes in his body.

Because he felt that subtle flow of time very clearly.

And it's also clear that there is a new attribute hint on the panel: Time Law Affinity +18.

Seeing this magical scene, the three of Caterina already understood that Ji Xun had really broken through this strange calamity realm.

Old man Xu was still at a loss, and he didn't understand anything.

But this field is useless to him, and it doesn't matter if he understands it or not.

And Che Er's eyes on the side gradually faded, obviously in a state of deep thought.

He was also thinking about what Ji Xun had just pointed out in his mind.

After a few breaths, the brilliance in his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in surprise: "I understand too!" ”

In an instant, he had an epiphany, and Che Er grasped something.

Then a magical scene also happened.

It seems that the book that has been turned away at an accelerated pace has returned to the original page, and Che Er's appearance has changed from a young man back to a heroic teenager.

find a way to break the rules,

The dead end was solved in an instant.

The atmosphere that had been so oppressive that it was difficult to breathe suddenly loosened.

However, Caterina frowned more and more as she watched.

Different people hear the same sentence, limited by cognition, and they comprehend different meanings.

Although she has a high level of understanding, she does not have a super high affinity for the law of time, and her comprehension of those words is very dull.

Gradually, the speed of time in the carriage is getting faster and faster,

She also showed some anxiety.

Everything that should be said has been said, and Ji Xun knows that others can't help her.

And this dilemma also appeared in the other four hunters who were still alive.

The hunters, who were already so old and wrinkled on their faces, watched Ji Xun and the two find the time that had passed, and they trembled even if they were so weak that they walked, but they also rushed over: "Help me"

Ji Xun didn't want to save these guys who shot him in the head.

And it can't be saved.

I didn't kill it before, I wanted to keep it to observe the effect of this calamity realm.

It's worthless now.

Ji Xun shouted lightly: "Get out!" ”

The men were terrified by the killing.

Instead of dying right away and waiting to die again, they chose the latter.

After all, they also heard the method, and one by one they didn't dare to approach, and they also seized the time to meditate cross-legged and realize the previous words.

Now the three of them have broken the game, and only themselves are left.

Caterina wanted to be at peace.

But it couldn't calm down.

Ji Xun said those words before, and she clearly remembered every sentence in her mind.

It's also like capturing something, if you have an understanding.

But that perception was not enough for her to fully recognize the concept of "time as an illusion of perception".

It was like a cloud floating in front of her, she saw it clearly, and wanted to grasp it in her hand, but there was only a mist of water.

Caterina is well aware that this is the key point in her "Heroic Trial".

If you survive the past, you will have great luck.

If you can't get through it, you'll die.

But comprehending this kind of thing is already hard to come by.

As time passed, she felt farther and farther away from the cloud.

Caterina clearly felt that her body's life force had grown to its peak, and then began to fail.

Are you going to die?

Caterina was not afraid.

After all, after choosing the Hero Trial, she already had the consciousness of death.

It's just a little unwilling.

Obviously, it seems that he has touched the atmospheric luck, but he just can't grasp it.

It's because I don't have enough life.

Caterina suddenly felt a sense of resignation.

I clearly felt that my life was coming to an end, and for a moment, it seemed that all my thoughts were open-minded.

Caterina had a lot on her mind.

My short life seems to be quite exciting.

But why is it a little ashamed to think about the pictures that I have to compete for the first place since I was a child.

Hahaha.

If you can do it again, keep a low profile and fight for the first place.

Thinking about it, something else popped up.

It has nothing to do with me.

That guy is amazing. Why did he understand it?

Caterina had to admit that she really looked at Ji Xun differently.

Originally, she came for the mysterious Xu senior.

But gradually,

She found that Ji Xun, who met by chance, became more and more prominent.

Although he knew that he could become friends with Old Man Xu, it was probably some kind of luck.

But the more I got in touch, the more I felt that this guy was very unusual.

Oh, no wonder [Gold of Destiny] quivers.

It turns out that this guy is also the atmospheric luck I want to contaminate.

A thought suddenly came to mind.

But it seems to be late.

Caterina herself didn't feel like she was undergoing a drastic transformation inside.

But there is obviously something missing, and this transformation of the cocoon into a butterfly is about to come to an abrupt end.

She has come to terms with death.

However, it was at this time that an unexpected opportunity came.

She suddenly felt a chill in her palm, and a round object fell into her hand.

In an instant, the feeling of coolness rushed to my head.

Some predicaments suddenly became clear.

"This Ji Xun boy, your friend won't die, will he?"

"Ouch, forget it, people are going to die, and the money will not be collected."

“.”

Time is moving faster and faster, and Caterina is visibly aging.

She failed to comprehend the time trap of this calamity space, and fell into a very mysterious state of deep meditation.

Can be heard.

But it's as if everything around you has nothing to do with you.

And Ji Xun and the three of them looked at her.

Now all three of them are out of the realm of death, but Caterina is not.

Ji Xun was very indifferent.

He and Caterina weren't friends, they just knew each other.

It's best if you don't die.

Dead, but also her own life.

No one else can help.

Old man Xu felt ashamed in his heart, thinking that if he didn't accept this little girl's money, she wouldn't come with her.

After all, he couldn't survive the inner torment, and the greedy old man took out the gold coin from before, rubbed it a few times with a reluctant face, and returned it to Caterina's palm.

However, it was the gold coin that was tainted with some cause and effect after passing through her hand, and it fell into Caterina's hand, but it trembled slightly.

At that moment, it was as if some kind of magical energy related to fate fluctuated.

Ji Xun looked at his pupils shrunk slightly.

He didn't understand what was happening.

But I watched as Katerina's aging face suddenly returned to its light and became plump and rosy.

"She understands it too?"

Ji Xun felt a little incredible.

But as soon as he looked at the dimming luster on the [Destiny Gold Coin], he suddenly understood something: "Did you win the bet on your life?"

He suddenly understood what the purpose of this woman's heroic trial was.

What a big bet.

In just a few breaths, Caterina regained the beautiful and unrivaled appearance of the girl before she got into the car.

She opened her eyes and looked at the three people in front of her who were looking at her with joy.

It was like a new life, and those blue and bright pupils bloomed with an incomparably deep luster.

Caterina held the gold coin in her hand, got up and respectfully bowed: "Thank you, senior!" ”

Old man Xu was a little confused by her behavior, "What? ”

Katerina didn't explain much.

Grandpa had already told me before he came, don't talk nonsense, otherwise some karma can't afford it.

She turned her face to look at Ji Xun again, and her pretty face showed a sincere smile that she had never seen before: "Thank you too." ”

Ji Xun chuckled lightly, his gaze leisurely.

It was no coincidence that he had been able to figure out the mystery of that time.

It is also contaminated with Old Man Xu's luck!

The facts are just as Ji Xun guessed.

Before the Nether Train arrives, time is moving faster and faster.

The other pioneer hunters in the carriage didn't wait for the car to stop, they all turned to powder and disappeared completely.

Just like when they got in the car before, they didn't leave a trace.

Woo woo.

The train arrived at another platform.

Ji Xun and the four of them got off the train.

Finally, there is no end to the waters of the River Styx.

In the dark shadow of the mountain in the distance, there seemed to be many ancient buildings.

"Ah, it's finally here."

"yes. I didn't want to take a train and almost died on it. ”

"It was an amazing experience. However, what is the situation in this Xia Mucheng? ”

“.”

After getting out of the car, Ji Xun also felt relieved.

It's not easy to get to the station alive.

He looked at the relic in his hand, and also showed a puzzled look.

It is a metal snake forged in bronze.

Looking at the material, it is a bit like the copper sheet that was obtained to record the fifty-two magic mystical arts.

That's why Ji Xun felt very strange.

This was given to him by the conductor after they had cracked the time trap of the cataclysmic space.

I also said a Talen ancient language that I didn't understand.

Ji Xun thought that this might be some kind of key thing in this secret realm.

However, without thinking much about it, at this moment, a figure in the darkness in the distance trotted all the way.

"Hey, how did you three guys get here?"

Ji Xun looked at it with vigilance.

This ruin has been empty for thousands of years, and suddenly one escapes out, not a monster, it's all a monster.

At the same time, I am very puzzled, why does the obscene running posture feel a little familiar?

The same goes for Caterina and Che Er next to her.

When the man ran out of the darkness, the three of them saw clearly, who was the guy with open front teeth, who was not Old Man Xu?

However, it was at this moment that a sense of horror instantly hit the backs of the three of them.

Because the four of them got out of the car together.

Old man Xu was behind them at the moment, and he was still talking a second ago.

So, who is this in front of you?

Is it a human or a ghost?
