Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

The shouts and cries of killing were deafening.

The horrific scene was creepy. Countless hungry ghosts poured out like a tide. Their bodies exuded a foul and evil odor. Each of them was so hungry that their faces were pale and their bodies were sunken, as if they wanted to devour everything in the world.

Faced with such an endless stream of hungry ghosts, everyone was struggling to resist, but there was only one person who stood firm!

He was tall and mighty, with a green robe fluttering in the wind. He stood with his hands behind his back, as if the countless hungry ghosts in front of him were not something he could take seriously at all.

His eyes were cold and deep, as if they could penetrate all illusions and fears, making people dare not look directly at them.

At this moment, he suddenly and slowly stretched out his hand. This hand seemed to carry an invisible force, causing the surrounding space to undergo strange changes in an instant.

The originally peaceful space seemed to be kneaded by an invisible giant hand, becoming sticky and twisted.

The distortion of space became more and more severe, as if the whole world was shaking.

at last!

The space seemed to be unable to withstand the pressure and suddenly a huge crack appeared.

Five brilliant and colorful rays of light poured out from the cracks, illuminating the entire dark world.

The people illuminated by this light seemed to be wearing dazzling light armor. Those originally ferocious and terrifying hungry ghosts could not easily break through their light armor at this moment.

Their sharp claws scratched across the light armor, making a harsh friction sound, but they were still unable to easily break through this solid defense.

The people wearing light armor burst out with extraordinary strength one by one. The hungry ghosts could not withstand their fierce attack and fled in panic.

The situation was reversed in an instant!

 …

Li Zhi slowly opened his eyes, as if waking up from a long and cruel dream.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, adjusted to the surrounding environment, and finally focused his sight on the person in front of him - it was Master Liu who had been staring at him.

Master Liu stared at Li Zhi, his eyes seemed to be full of anticipation, and he asked, "How is it?"

Li Zhi did not answer immediately, but lowered his head, his eyes lost in deep thought.

Time passed minute by minute, and although Master Liu was full of anticipation, he still waited quietly, not daring to disturb his thoughts.

After a moment, Li Zhi raised his head, and a hint of clarity flashed in his eyes.

After taking a deep breath, he slowly stretched out his right hand, opening his palm with the face facing upwards.

As Li Zhi circulated the Qi in his body, a faint light emanated from his palm.

Although the five-colored light was faint, it was full of vitality. It flickered in Li Zhi's palm like stars in the dark night.

"it is good!"

Master Liu shouted "good", his face full of joy. He stared at the five-colored light in Li Zhi's palm and said, "Your Five Elements and Five Armor Technique has taken shape, and you can perfect it in the future."

Li Zhi clasped his five fingers together, and the five-colored light was taken back into his body.

"Master, I have learned the techniques of the Five Elements and Five Armors. Let's leave now." Li Zhi said.

Master Liu nodded. He knew that Li Zhi was now eager to verify and perfect his magic.

So, Master Liu took Li Zhi out of the stone chamber.

After Master Liu walked out of the stone chamber, his expression remained unchanged. He did not greet the skeleton as he did before, and did not even look at it. He just walked out.

Li Zhi followed Master Liu out of the stone chamber. When he saw Master Liu leave, he looked back at the skeleton. After hesitating for a moment, he bowed to the skeleton and said, "Thank you, senior!"

However, the skeleton did not respond at all and continued to sit there cross-legged quietly, as if it was just an ordinary skeleton.

Seeing this, Li Zhi did not stay any longer and turned around and hurriedly followed Master Liu.

Just as Li Zhi turned around, the skeleton's head suddenly moved slightly, as if looking at Li Zhi with interest. Its gaze followed Li Zhi's departing back until Li Zhi disappeared from its sight.

Compared to the weirdness when he first came in, Li Zhi was unusually calm when he left, and nothing happened.

However, Li Zhi felt as if there was another pair of eyes fixed on him.

So he didn't dare to stay here for too long, and followed Master Liu out of the cave without looking back.

After Li Zhi finally walked out of the cave, the feeling of being watched finally disappeared.

Li Zhi felt a little relieved, then he looked at Master Liu and said, "Master, I will go to practice first and return to the cave later."

Immortal Master Liu nodded and said, "Okay, then you should pay more attention to yourself and remember not to be too eager for quick success in cultivation, otherwise you will easily fall into the devil's barrier."

"Master, rest assured, this disciple knows."

After Li Zhi finished speaking, he said goodbye to Master Liu and left.

After Li Zhi left, Master Liu's eyes flickered, and he murmured: "Are you guarding against me? Hehe..."

 …

Five rays of light suddenly lit up, and Li Zhi seemed to be covered in colorful armor.

At this moment, a bright silver spear, like a roaring silver dragon, rushed straight towards Li Zhi with a fierce momentum.

The shot was as fast as lightning, making it impossible to dodge. The tip of the gun flashed with cold light, as if it was going to pierce Li Zhi.

However, facing such a powerful attack, Li Zhi did not dodge or evade, and the five-colored armor on his body glowed with light.

"Qiang!"

Accompanied by a crisp sound, a huge force came, and Li Zhi's body involuntarily took a few steps back.

Bai Zhan used this force to twist his body in the air and then stood steadily.

Then he stared at Li Zhi in astonishment, his eyes full of disbelief. He said incredulously: "I used 40% of my strength in this attack, but I only made you retreat a few steps?"

Li Zhi rubbed his sore chest. Although he managed to withstand Bai Zhan's shot, the force transmitted by Bai Zhan also made Li Zhi feel uncomfortable.

But Bai Zhan didn't think so. Although he only used 40% of his strength in this shot, how long had Li Zhi been practicing?

Li Zhi had only practiced the Five Elements and Five Armors technique for two months at best, but he was able to block an attack with 40% of his strength.

Bai Zhan was wondering when Li Zhi walked towards him.

"Senior brother's shot was so powerful and forceful that I almost couldn't block it." Li Zhi said while rubbing his chest.

Bai Zhan rolled his eyes. He felt that he was hit hard and said, "Please don't say that."

Li Zhi asked Bai Zhan some questions about the art of transforming Qi into a realm, and after they chatted for a few words, Bai Zhan left.

And Li Zhi did not continue to practice hard.

He just sat down cross-legged.

I was thinking in my mind.

Now he has mastered the three magic spells of Xiaoyao Mountain.

As he practiced these three spells, he felt more and more how wise the rule of Xiaoyao Mountain was, that all disciples of Xiaoyao Mountain must practice one spell for sixty years before continuing to choose other spells.

Li Zhi is now practicing three spells at the same time. Although this increases his means, it also disperses his energy. It is difficult for him to take care of all of them at the same time. In addition, with the increase in the number of spells he practices, the Chi consumption in his body is twice that of an ordinary person.

This is a big burden for him.

Fortunately, he practiced the Five Internal Organs Meridians. Although the Five Internal Organs Meridians have not yet been perfected, they can still barely keep up.

Li Zhi is now thinking about whether he should continue to practice other magic spells, or to complete the practice of the Five Internal Organs Meridians first.

After all, he has now practiced the Five Elements and Five Armors Technique, which perfectly conceals the traces of his practice of the Five Internal Organs Meridians. Unless there is a powerful person who carefully examines the condition of his five internal organs, he doesn't have to worry about being discovered.

If he continued to practice other magic spells, Li Zhi was worried that the Five Internal Organs Meridians would not be able to support it. By then, no matter how many tricks he had, they would no longer be trump cards but a burden.

Moreover, he knew that even if there were only three spells, it would be enough for him to study for a long time.

But to cultivate the five internal organs' meridians, one needs the five elements' nature and energy.

The five elements' nature and energy are really hard to deal with. Even Master Liu, who had been away for so long, only managed to bring back one element of wood energy.

"But... there is a bit of earthiness..." Li Zhi murmured.

He remembered what he had heard in Hailing City before, about the stone god who possessed a treasure with earth-attribute energy.

He lowered his head and thought carefully, and Li Zhi finally decided to wait a little longer, until he had mastered the art of the Five Elements and Five Armors before going.

Li Zhi was not only worried about the strength of the Stone God, he was also worried that if he could not defeat the Stone God directly and the Stone God escaped, Li Zhi would not know where to find the Earth Energy.

In order not to alert the enemy and for his own safety, Li Zhi decided to take it slow.
