Chapter 357: Power in Inches!
Inside the cave, Ye Qiu suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked at his hands, "Indeed, time has reversed again."
As the Martial Emperor’s fist pierced through his body, Ye Qiu once again saw the clock in his eyes!
He reversed the clock’s hands, and time indeed went back again!
So, following this logic, if he quickly moved the clock’s hands, could he make time speed up?
Ye Qiu tried to clench his fists, did his Power in Inches increase?
Was it from the blow just now?
Ye Qiu looked at Diqi again, "Let’s try it again, please teach me!"
Swish!
。。。
Time passed.
Ye Qiu swung the pointer again, falling into the deep sea.
One, two, three…
Some unknown entity opened its eyes.
"The forty-sixth time."
。。。
Boom!!
With one punch, Martial Emperor shook the heavens and earth, even dispersing the atmosphere in the sky, shattering mountains, and overturning rivers!
A powerful force swept through the land, shattering trees and rocks, causing the earth to crack open!
But this time, Ye Qiu caught it!
Ye Qiu had blood at the corner of his mouth, his insides had been crushed, but it was from the aftermath of Diqi’s punch!
This time, his chest was not pierced by Diqi!
Diqi’s fist hovered in front of Ye Qiu’s chest, with just a small gap!
His hands tightly grasped Diqi’s fist.
"I caught it in that small gap!"
Diqi chuckled, "Congratulations, kid."
"Poof!"
Ye Qiu suddenly coughed up some blood, and as the invisible clock hands reappeared, he once again rotated counterclockwise.
Tick tock, tick tock.
The fifty-seventh time.
When Ye Qiu opened his eyes again, he suddenly noticed something was not right.
Ye Qiu casually played with his hair and surprisingly pulled out a white strand.
Looking at the white hair in his hand, Ye Qiu quickly reached for his wrist. "Has my bone age increased?"
"How can this be?"
Could it be that…
Will reversing time consume my own life?!
Ye Qiu’s eyes narrowed, to be honest, he had always been wondering what side effects time reversal might have!
It was not until this moment that he finally understood!
Time reversal consumes his own time!
Every time he is reborn, he loses a fraction of his time!
The farther back he goes in time, the more time it consumes!
If he goes back ten years, he will lose ten years of time!
More accurately, his body will age ten years instantly!
Would time acceleration also work in the same way?
"Those who play with time will eventually be played by time, but it’s okay… at least for now, I still have time!"
Diqi calmly looked at Ye Qiu, "Now I ask you again, the Great Path is right beneath your feet. If you leave and never return, what will happen?"
"Then, I will leave and never return."
Ye Qiu slowly knelt down, respectfully bowing to Diqi.
"I am going, Master."
Diqi’s stone figure sat back into place, "I told you, I am not your master, and you are not my disciple. Since you have gained enlightenment, then go."
Ye Qiu took a deep breath, "After everything is over, I will come back to see you again."
"Elder, farewell."
。。。
Returning to the Tower of Seals, the appearance of this place had drastically changed.
Various modern facilities are endless, covering all sorts of professional equipment for different industries.
Some people are cooking with a gas stove and a gas cylinder here, while others are grilling meat on a barbecue grill.
Some people are using a level and blueprint to plan the area here.
The cement mixer is working vigorously, with many people pushing carts to transport bricks and cement to build houses according to the plan.
Some people are openly selling guns, ammunition, including grenades and other highly lethal weapons.
However, the military personnel coming in and out seem unfazed, showing no intention of stopping them.
What a prosperous scene…
Ye Qiu saw this scene and couldn’t help but remember his past life, when he met those several good friends at this time.
But back then, they were all just trying to get by here.
Every day, they would fight some small monsters during the day, then gather together at night to play cards and bet some copper coins.
Later on, they even bought a house here. On rainy or snowy days, they would go to Ye Qiu’s house to sit around the fireplace and play cards together.
To be honest, those days might have been lazy, but they were truly happy.
They would drink some alcohol, boast with their friends, and confidently discuss important matters at the dinner table.
That period of time was truly memorable.
Ye Qiu shook his head, about to enter the Tower of Seals when he noticed a young girl selling flowers.
!!!
Ye Qiu suddenly turned his head and saw a corner of a row of stalls where a young girl in a pale white dress was squatting, with a basket in front of her.
The basket was filled with many packaged roses. These plastic-wrapped flowers were definitely not from The Sealed Land; they must have been brought from the mainland.
It seems like the country has opened the borders.
Allowing people to freely enter and leave The Sealed Land.
At this moment, Ye Qiu stood blankly in front of a basket full of roses.
The girl sat on a mat, hugging her knees, wearing a hat, her face hidden from Ye Qiu.
As Ye Qiu stayed there, the girl slowly started to notice him, then lifted her head to look at him.
The girl’s eyes were very bright, as if there were stars hidden in them, her young face showing a hint of shyness.
"Do you, do you want to buy some flowers?"
The girl’s voice was soft and gentle.
But Ye Qiu’s pupils had already shrunk to the extreme.
Looking into the girl’s pure eyes, countless memories flooded Ye Qiu’s mind!
"My name is Zhao Yeqing, what’s yours?"
"I’m Zhao Yeqing, also known as Firefly, lighting up the night, a nice name!"
。。。
"Ye Qiu, oh Ye Qiu, how could you fall so far? Have you forgotten the words you once said and the promises you made?"
"Hmm, who touched my diary?"
。。。
"Would you buy me a flower, Xiao Ye, please?"
"You’re the flower seller, why buy flowers?"
"That’s different…"
。。。
"Keep going, Little Leaf, you can do it!"
"You can do it, Little Leaf, I believe in you!"
。。。
"Okay, don’t be sad, Little Leaf, don’t cry, don’t cry."
"Really, if you continue like this, I will cry too…"
。。。
"Today I sold four flowers, look, Little Leaf, this is my first time, selling four flowers in one day!"
"You must promise me, you can’t gamble with Zhao An and the others anymore. We need to save money, and then buy a big house…"
"Oh, and also…"
。。。
"Yes, I’m sorry, Xiao Ye, I just wanted to help you…"
"Why?!"
"What are you doing?!"
"Xiao Ye… that day, I thought a lot, I feel… *cough*…"
"If you’re really afraid, then, then don’t go, just… stay by my side, we… here, open a flower shop…"
"Wouldn’t that be… very nice too…"
"If, if we could have another baby, it would be even better…"
"Perfect."
