The Lord of Void and Real-Chapter 191 - 189: As If A Lifetime Has Passed

Chapter 191: Chapter 189: As If A Lifetime Has Passed

On the stone wall, a dazzling white light emerges, forming a white light curtain. The light curtain has countless white lines crisscrossing, forming various patterns, creating a truly mystical prohibition, blocking Shen Luo’s fist.

However, the power contained in his fist was jaw-dropping, his fists deeply falling into the white light curtain.

The white light curtain tightly held, not breaking.

“Humph!” Shen Luo, seeing this scene, remained expressionless with only a cold snort.

As soon as the sound fell, his body’s golden light bloomed again, with the shadow of three dragons and three elephants appearing, producing the sound of a dragon chant and an elephant’s roar.

The next moment, the shadow of the three dragons and three elephants shot out, blending into his arms.

...

The golden light from his arms suddenly surged several times, and a fist force several times stronger than before erupted like a volcano, fiercely tearing on the white light curtain.

With a “hiss” sound, the white light curtain could no longer hold and burst open, turning into countless white light spots and drifting away.

Shen Luo’s fists tore the light curtain, did not stop, continued to hammer forward, ruthlessly hitting the stone wall.

The solid stone wall under his hand, fragile as if made of paper, created a dull rumble and a large hole formed at the center where his fists hit.

The surrounding void exudes strands of white light, covering everything, making everything around it become illusory, and only the large hole in the stone wall is real.

Through the large hole, the outside mountain forest could be seen clearly.

Shen Luo took a long breath, withdrew his fists, and with one leap, rocketed out from within the big hole.

He only felt a blur before his eyes, then appeared in front of the cliff where he was trapped previously.

“Finally, I’m out!” Looking at the familiar mountain peak before his eyes, a hint of a smile appeared on Shen Luo’s face.

The Heaven Devouring Tiger wasn’t waiting here; likely it had lost patience waiting after so many days.

Regretfully shaking his head, Shen Luo, whose strength had greatly increased at this moment, wanted to find an opponent to properly confirm his new strength. The Heaven Devouring Tiger was indeed the most suitable opponent.

However, he’s not really a belligerent person who would intentionally look for the Heaven Devouring Tiger for a match. Since it wasn’t encountered, he’ll let it be.

Shen Luo turned around and looked at the cliff behind him, a large hole has appeared and strands of white light radiated from inside. After a while, the hole did not show any sign of healing automatically.

“Looks like the prohibition here was destroyed by me,” Shen Luo scratched his head, moved some large stones from the surrounding, and blocked the big hole.

Having done that, he didn’t linger, leaped towards the base of the mountain.

He mastered the thirty-six verses of the Huangting Technique, other than the changes to his physical body, his agility, and speed also greatly increased. It’s like walking on flat ground in the steep and dangerous mountains, with just a few leaps, he had disappeared into the distance.

Not long after Shen Luo left, a white figure shot from the distance and arrived at the cliff. The white light dimmed to reveal the figure of the Heaven Devouring Tiger.

It looked at the covered entrance on the cliff, a hint of happiness appeared in its eyes, then, recalling something, its eyes shone with fierce light, and it swung its paw.

A cluster of blue lightning shot out, “boom,” knocking the stones blocking the entrance and shooting them into the distance.

The Heaven Devouring Tiger dashed and rushed into the hole.

Half an hour later, a roar full of extreme fury echoed from the large hole in the cliff, causing the nearby mountain wall to tremble incessantly.

…

Shen Luo knew nothing of what happened behind him, his figure was rapidly moving around the top of Mount Fangcun. In less than half an hour, he descended the mountain.

He stopped by a pool at the foot of the mountain, bent down to wash his face, and then looked up at the sky.

Days and nights passed in the cave with a constant brightness, unaware of the change between day and night.

The sky seemed strangely dark at this moment, as if a great black curtain had covered it, emitting a suffocating pressure, like a storm was coming. No one could tell the time.

For some reason, a hint of chill permeated the air around them.

Finding it strange, Shen Luo chose not to dwell too much on it. He sped towards Longevity Village and soon reached its entrance.

“You… Master Shen, you’re still alive!” The guards at the village entrance gawked at the sight of Shen Luo, their faces soon showing a mix of shock and joy.

Shen Luo couldn’t help but frown. Thinking about it, he realized that it made sense. He had been in the mountain for over twenty days, previously being hunted by the Heaven Devouring Tiger. It wasn’t irrational for Ying Luo to believe that he had fallen.

“I’m fine. Open the gate.” He said, giving it some thought.

“Yes, yes! It’s good that you’re well, Master Shen. Let’s open the gate quickly.” Qing Niu appeared from amongst the crowd, bowed to Shen Luo, then turned around and said.

While he was calling others to open the gate, he simultaneously pulled a person aside and whispered something to him. That person then sprinted towards the village.

“How has the village been during this period? Also, has Ying Luo returned?” As Shen Luo started walking towards the village, he asked Qing Niu, who was following behind him.

“Master Ying? She is currently in the village. I’ve sent someone to inform her. A few days ago, a demon attacked the village, but she managed to drive it away with magic.” Qing Niu answered.

Shen Luo found Qing Niu’s reply a bit strange, but hearing that Ying Luo was safe, he didn’t give it much thought and carried on towards his residence.

“Master Shen, where have you been for the past year and more?” Qing Niu followed and hesitated before asking.

“A year? What year?” Shen Luo was taken aback and asked with a surprised expression.

“You went to Mount Fangcun with Master Ying last year and then disappeared. It has been over a year since then.” Qing Niu looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Upon hearing these words, Shen Luo’s eyes widened in shock. He stood there stunned for a moment before coming back to his senses.

“Master Shen, are you alright?” The teenager stopped as he saw Shen Luo stop in his tracks.

“Has it really been that long since I was on the mountain?” Coming back to his senses, Shen Luo asked again.

“Absolutely, you went up Mount Fangcun with Master Ying in June last year, and now it’s already October of this year.” Qing Niu nodded in affirmation.

Shen Luo looked at the thick clothes on Qing Niu, felt the temperature around them, and realized why he had felt something was strange ever since he had come down the mountain and returned to the village. But had it indeed been more than a year since then, even though he had only spent just over twenty days in the cave?

Suddenly, it dawned on him to remember the story Ying Luo had told him — the story of the woodcutter who met the immortals playing chess on Mount Fangcun. Although his situation didn’t seem so exaggerated, the circumstances were basically the same.

“It seems that Ying Luo’s tale was not made up, it does have grounds.” Shen Luo thought to himself.

“Big Brother Shen, it really is you! I’m so glad you’re safe!” As these thoughts were running through his head, a joyful voice echoed from the front.

Shen Luo looked up to see Ying Luo’s figure approaching rapidly, her face full of exhilaration.

“Daoist Ying.” Shen Luo suppressed his joy at seeing Ying Luo, and greeted her with a light chuckle.

Following Ying Luo, many villagers also came rushing over. Seeing Shen Luo, each of them showed a mixture of shock and joy.

“It’s inconvenient to talk here. Let’s go to my courtyard to talk in detail.” Shen Luo frowned slightly, addressed Ying Luo, and strode ahead.

“Qing Niu, you should return to your post at the gate.” Knowing Shen Luo’s dislike for crowds, Ying Luo instructed Qing Niu and followed right behind Shen Luo.
