Traveling through thousands of years, I only love you

Chapter 58 Returning to Ancient Times to See You

Li Lingyuan's explorations and pursuits in the modern world have repeatedly failed, leaving her heart filled with deep despair and longing. Every night, she encounters Xiao Yi in her dreams, but each morning she awakens to an empty room and endless loss. These vague dreams, like a cruel trick played by fate, leave her teetering on the brink of hope and despair.

After countless attempts, Li Lingyuan stumbled upon an extremely secret and dangerous time-travel ritual in an ancient family manual. This ritual required the power of specific stars, ancient rune formations, and the practitioner's strong will. Despite being fully aware of the risks, Li Lingyuan decided to attempt it without hesitation.

She began searching for the necessary materials and locations to set up the formation, following the instructions in the secret manual. She climbed to the top of a remote mountain to gather herbs imbued with celestial power; delved into mysterious ancient ruins to find stone tablets inscribed with runes; and traded large sums of money on the ancient black market for precious crystals to use in setting up the formation.

After completing her preparations, Li Lingyuan arrived at an abandoned old house on a dark and windy night. Located at a point of unusual geomagnetic energy, it was said to be the ideal location for performing the Space-Time Ritual. Following the instructions in the secret manual, she meticulously drew runes, arranged spiritual herbs and crystals, and, muttering something, began to summon the power of the stars.

As the ceremony progressed, the stars in the sky began to gleam with a strange light, and rays of light converged above the ancient house, forming a vast vortex. Li Lingyuan found herself at the center of the vortex, feeling a powerful force tugging at her soul and body. She gritted her teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, her heart filled with a single conviction: to return to Xiao Yi.

Suddenly, a blinding flash of light swept Li Lingyuan's consciousness away. When she regained consciousness, she found herself in a desolate ancient wilderness. Surrounding her was a familiar yet unfamiliar landscape: ancient woods, winding paths, and the air was filled with the scent of earth and grass.

Li Lingyuan was overjoyed, believing she could finally reunite with Xiao Yi. She rushed eagerly to the places she remembered Xiao Yi frequenting. She first arrived at the small house they had once lived in. However, the house was long abandoned, covered in cobwebs, and the furnishings inside were dilapidated by the passage of time. Li Lingyuan's heart ached, but she consoled herself by believing Xiao Yi had only temporarily left.

Then, she rushed to the sea of ​​flowers where they had promised to spend their lives together. But the sight before her was heartbreaking. The sea of ​​flowers had disappeared, replaced by a wasteland overgrown with weeds. Li Lingyuan searched everywhere in the wasteland, calling out Xiao Yi's name. Her voice echoed in the empty fields, but she received no response.

She went to Xiao Yi's sect again, but there were only a few young disciples left in the sect, and they knew nothing about Xiao Yi's whereabouts. Li Lingyuan was filled with fear and anxiety, and she couldn't imagine what had happened to Xiao Yi.

After searching everywhere without success, Li Lingyuan decided to head for the mysterious mountain he and Xiao Yi had once explored. Legend has it that a hermit resides on the mountain and might know Xiao Yi's whereabouts. The path up the mountain was rugged and treacherous, but Li Lingyuan, anxious and reckless, climbed relentlessly.

During her climb, she encountered a sudden downpour. The path became muddy and slippery, and she fell several times, leaving her covered in wounds. But she struggled to her feet and continued on. Finally reaching the summit, she discovered the master's residence had long been deserted, leaving only a dilapidated hut.

Li Lingyuan discovered some residual writing in the hut, which seemed to be some insights about the disorder of time and space left by a master. One of them mentioned a terrible possibility: due to the serious damage to the order of time and space before, Xiao Yi may have been caught in the turbulence of time and space during an adventure, and his life or death was uncertain.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Li Lingyuan paralyzed. She couldn't accept this outcome. She had come back to reunite with Xiao Yi, but now she was facing the possibility of losing him. She burst into tears on the mountaintop, tears mixing with the rain and streaming down her cheeks.

Tired of crying, Li Lingyuan decided to pick herself up. She began posting missing person notices in various towns, using her limited resources to offer a reward for information leading to Xiao Yi's whereabouts. Every day, she would wait at the bustling market entrance, her eyes fixed on passersby, hoping to spot that familiar figure.

At the same time, she didn't give up on exploring the mysteries of time and space. She asked around to see if there were other people who knew time and space magic, not letting go of even the slightest clue. She delved into the ancient library, flipping through dusty tomes, hoping to find a way to save Xiao Yi or travel through time again.

During this process, Li Lingyuan met a mysterious old man who claimed to know something about the turbulence of time and space, but would not tell her until Li Lingyuan helped him complete a dangerous task. Li Lingyuan agreed without hesitation.

The mission is to enter a cursed tomb and retrieve a treasure. The tomb is filled with traps and evil spirits. Li Lingyuan, relying on her wits and courage, carefully navigates the tomb, deciphering each trap and engaging in a desperate battle with the spirits.

Finally, she succeeded in extracting the treasure. When she handed it to the old man, he smiled strangely. It turned out that the old man was an evil man whose mind was twisted by the turbulence of time and space. He wanted to use Li Lingyuan to open a larger rift in time and space and release more evil forces.

After discovering she'd been tricked, Li Lingyuan engaged in a thrilling battle with the old man. She knew she was no match for him, but she fought tooth and nail to stop his scheme. At a crucial moment, Li Lingyuan suddenly realized a new power of time and space, gathering it within her palm and delivering a fatal blow to the old man.

The old man was repelled, but Li Lingyuan also lost consciousness due to overdrawn strength. When she woke up again, she found herself lying in an unfamiliar cave. She didn't know how she got there or how much time had passed.

She struggled to her feet and continued on her journey to find Xiao Yi. Her body grew weaker, but her faith remained unwavering. She knew that as long as she breathed, she would not give up on finding Xiao Yi. Even if she had to face endless dangers and challenges alone in this ancient world, even if the ultimate outcome might be losing him forever, she would leave behind traces of her unwavering pursuit of love across millennia of time and space.
