Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

As soon as he entered the cave, Li Zhi felt as if he had entered the underworld.

It was pitch black when he looked inside the cave entrance, but when he came in, he found that the entire cave was not as dark as he had imagined. Instead, it was faintly lit with a green light.

Li Zhi frowned. This color tone made him feel uncomfortable.

However, Master Liu did not seem to feel anything unusual and just walked forward on his own.

Li Zhi also followed carefully. The ground under his feet was uneven and he could easily trip if he was not careful.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew from behind, and Li Zhi couldn't help but shiver all over.

Li Zhi hurriedly stopped and looked around vigilantly, but saw nothing.

However, the feeling of being watched grew stronger, sending chills down his spine.

Master Liu, who was walking in front, seemed to notice that Li Zhi had stopped, so he turned around to look at Li Zhi and found that Li Zhi was looking around with a serious expression.

"What's wrong?" asked Master Liu.

Li Zhi took a few steps forward, walked up to Master Liu, and whispered, "Master, I always feel like someone is watching us!"

Master Liu frowned when he heard this. He looked around but did not feel the feeling of being monitored as Li Zhi said.

However, he did not doubt what Li Zhi said. Instead, he said, "Go quickly. No matter what you hear or see, don't look back!"

Li Zhi was startled, and then he saw that Master Liu had turned around and walked straight inside.

Just as Master Liu turned around and left, a voice sounded in Li Zhi's ears.

That voice was that of Master Liu, who said in a hurried tone, "Go! There's danger inside!"

Li Zhiqiang resisted the urge to look back, watching the figure of Master Liu gradually moving away, and listening to the anxious and urging voice of Master Liu.

Li Zhi gritted his teeth and chased after Master Liu who was going away.

Li Zhi moved, and the sound in his ear suddenly stopped. He felt a little relieved, but at this moment, an accident happened. He had just taken a step.

Suddenly he felt something was wrong. He saw a withered arm emerging from the ground and grabbing his foot tightly.

At the same time, hands stretched out from the darkness behind Li Zhi and climbed onto Li Zhi.

Before Li Zhi could break free, an even more terrifying scene appeared.

Pale, twisted hands stretched out from the darkness behind Li Zhi and quickly climbed onto Li Zhi's body like devil's tentacles.

These hands were cold and powerful, tightly grasping Li Zhi's clothes and skin, as if to imprison him here and make him unable to move.

Li Zhi's breathing became rapid and he felt a chill rising up his spine.

But the moment the chill just arose, a burning heat surged in Li Zhi's heart.

Afterwards, the jade pendant placed in Li Zhi's arms also exuded warmth, and Li Zhi clearly felt the five elements of power in the jade pendant running rapidly.

In an instant, the arms that were originally tightly holding Li Zhi seemed to be burned by fire, and they quickly loosened their arms and retreated back.

Li Zhi took the opportunity to break free from his restraints and breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not have time to think about what had happened. The most important thing at the moment was to escape from this dangerous place as soon as possible.

He did not dare to delay for even a second and rushed towards the direction where Master Liu was without hesitation.

Fortunately, the strange thing just now happened in an instant, and Master Liu did not walk very fast.

So, Li Zhi caught up in no time.

Master Liu did not look back, but he also noticed something. However, he did not speak rashly, but continued to walk forward.

Seeing that Master Liu didn't say anything, Li Zhi also stayed silent and followed Master Liu closely.

 …

After a while, Mr. Liu brought Li Zhi to the end of the cave.

Arriving here, Li Zhi clearly felt that Master Liu relaxed as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.

"How are you these days, Senior?"

Li Zhi was startled by Master Liu's sudden words.

Li Zhi looked past Master Liu's back and looked forward.

I saw a skeleton sitting cross-legged in front of me. There was no aura fluctuation on the skeleton, as if it was just the skeleton of an ordinary person.

But it was just such an ordinary skeleton, after Master Liu finished speaking, it actually nodded to Master Liu like a living person.

Then Li Zhi saw its upper and lower jaws move, and it actually spoke: "Isn't this Xiaoyaozi's disciple? How come you have time to come to my place today?"

"Excuse me, senior. I came here to let my disciple observe the magic stele." said Master Liu.

Upon hearing this, the skeleton pointed to the side and said, "Then go in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the space next to him suddenly twisted, and then a door appeared.

Master Liu bowed to the skeleton and went straight in. Seeing this, Li Zhi also bowed to the skeleton and then entered the door.

After entering the door, what was inside was not what Li Zhi had imagined. It was actually a small stone room with a stone tablet in the middle.

Immortal Master Liu looked at the stone tablet and said, "Do you know why I brought you here even though there are other uncles and aunts who have practiced the Five Elements and Five Armor Techniques in the Immortal Sect?"

Li Zhi had this doubt for a long time, but he just didn't know how to ask. Now that Master Liu had said it himself, Li Zhi said, "Disciple does have this doubt, please Master, please answer it for me."

Immortal Master Liu said: "As for magic, it is influenced by the people who practice it. Although the paths lead to the same destination, there are still some differences. Different people have different perceptions of magic, and the magic they perform will also be different, so what they teach and pass on will also be different."

Listening to what Master Liu said, Li Zhi nodded secretly.

Although the spell is the same, the way it is manifested may be different due to the different emphasis of the caster.

"Originally, I only planned to let you learn magic first, and then let you study it on your own... But your battle with Zheng Hong made me change my mind."

Immortal Master Liu continued: "So, I brought you here."

Li Zhi had some guesses in his mind, so he said, "Could this be the source of the Five Elements and Five Armor Technique?"

Immortal Master Liu nodded and said, "That's right. My great-uncle master realized the art of the five elements and five armors from here, and then recorded it in a book for disciples to learn."

Immortal Master Liu pointed at the stone tablet and said to Li Zhi, "Go over and give it a try."

Li Zhi came to the stone tablet and saw Master Liu gesture, so he stretched out his hand and pressed his palm directly on the stone tablet.

Suddenly, a suction force came, and Li Zhi seemed to be sucked into the stone tablet uncontrollably.

But when he came to his senses, he found that he was clearly standing in the same place, but his mind was filled with a lot of information.

Li Zhi frowned, his mind seemed to be filled with something.

A large amount of information was analyzed bit by bit in Li Zhi's mind.

After a while, Li Zhi let out a long breath.

He finally digested the information in his mind. This was a story about ancestors suppressing evil spirits. Li Zhi also understood why this place was called the Hungry Ghost Path.

He also understood why those strange things happened when he entered the cave.

Of course, more importantly, Li Zhi saw in these memories the magic that Tang Shiyue was unwilling to teach him.

The art of the five elements and five armors!
