Chapter 1125 Endless Death
Chapter 1125 Endless Death
Although Tang Lan saw Hao Chen at this moment, she was not too surprised.
Instead, he focused all his attention on the ball of white light in his palm.
"Now that you have successfully gained the villagers' approval, the reward for this first test shall be bestowed upon you!"
After Hao Chen finished speaking, a ball of gray light suddenly appeared in his palm.
This dark gray light did not make Tang Lan feel any danger at all; on the contrary, it made her feel extremely safe and close.
As the light gradually flew towards her, Tang Lan subconsciously raised her hand, letting the light land on her left hand.
As the light fell, Tang Lan felt it merging into her limbs and bones.
It is not hidden in any of the seven acupoints.
This means that Tang Lan's limbs and bones are being tempered by the power left behind by the Grim Reaper.
Tang Lan, who was already somewhat unstable due to her improved cultivation level, now felt as if her foundation was being hammered repeatedly by a giant hammer.
The strength of the physical body is also increasing rapidly at a visible rate.
In a panic, Tang Lan had no choice but to sit cross-legged in front of Hao Chen and use the divine power within her to temper her body.
"This child is teachable!"
"It seems the young people who came this time are indeed quite good; no wonder that old man spoke so highly of them!"
Hao Chen nodded in satisfaction after seeing this.
After fully tempering her body, Tang Lan slowly opened her eyes and saw that Hao Chen was still thinking about her.
So he asked, "How long have I been in seclusion this time?"
"Yes, about three years!"
"If it were placed outside, the flow of time should be very slow, so you don't need to worry."
"Compared to this, the time you spent comprehending the rules of time was the longest."
After a pause, Hao Chen continued, "However, at that time, you were in the river of time, so you didn't feel the flow of time."
"I specially created a space outside for you that slows down the passage of time!"
"Otherwise, even if there is a time difference between here and outside, it would probably take several decades."
Upon hearing Hao Chen's words, Tang Lan showed a hint of gratitude towards this middle-aged man for the first time.
This wasn't something the other party was supposed to do, but Hao Chen helped him in this way, so he really owed Hao Chen a favor this time.
"Thank you for your help, senior!"
Tang Lan cupped her hands in gratitude to Hao Chen, expressing her heartfelt thanks.
"You have two more chances. If you succeed in obtaining the source power of the other two Death Gods, then everything here will be yours."
"I hope you can cherish this opportunity; it will benefit you and those around you."
Hao Chen smiled and waved his hand, indicating that Tang Lan didn't need to be so polite.
Tang Lan fell into deep thought after hearing this.
He now understands the benefits of comprehending the rules of heaven and earth.
Tang Lan is now able to change the flow of time in a space in a short period of time.
If used against an enemy, one can even seize that brief moment to secure victory.
If he had possessed such formidable abilities before, he probably wouldn't have needed to be so cautious.
"Okay! I'll do my best!"
Since the rules of time are so powerful, the rules of life and death and the rules of cause and effect must be no less so.
Tang Lan readily agreed.
Half an hour later, Haochen left.
Once again, Tang Lan was the only one left in this little world.
More accurately, it was the entire village and Tang Lan, but in Tang Lan's mind, these people were no longer ordinary humans.
"Big brother, what are you daydreaming about? Come play with us!"
Just then, the voices of several children suddenly came from beside Tang Lan.
Tang Lan was slightly taken aback after hearing this, and then she realized that these little guys could actually see her.
So he smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll play with you!"
Tang Lan hadn't forgotten Hao Chen's words: as long as she won the approval of these little guys, she could obtain the second source power left by the Grim Reaper.
However, Tang Lan soon discovered that things were not that simple.
When he threw the first stone, the surrounding space quickly changed.
At this moment, Tang Lan was under a giant wave that was about to engulf the entire earth.
He discovered that he was completely unable to use the power within his body, just like an ordinary person, and could only watch helplessly as death approached.
The latest novel is first published here!
The next second, a colossal wave crashed down, and Tang Lan felt herself being swept away by a terrifying current to a place she could no longer see.
At this moment, Tang Lan was like a leaf on a wave, only able to drift with the tide.
"Help, help me!!"
Just then, Tang Lan saw a child suddenly appear in the water.
This child was the one who had been the most active and had taken the initiative to teach Tang Lan how to play.
His face was contorted as he reached out towards Tang Lan. Although he couldn't hear her voice, he could still read her lip movements to understand what she wanted to say.
Without any hesitation, Tang Lan suddenly leaped into the even more terrifying turbulent currents ahead.
As Tang Lan grabbed the child, she lost her balance and was swept into the terrifying vortex by the undercurrent.
The suffocating and tearing sensation made Tang Lan feel that she would lose her life completely at any moment.
The light in his eyes slowly faded away in the final moments.
But Tang Lan suddenly heard a boy's voice: "Big brother, thank you!"
As soon as the sound faded, the surrounding space instantly returned to its previous state, and the seawater gradually disappeared.
However, Tang Lan's discomfort has not disappeared to this day.
"Is this a hallucination? It doesn't seem so!"
Tang Lan recalled his previous feelings, and even he himself was a little unsure at this moment.
Tang Lan then threw another pebble.
As expected, the surrounding environment suddenly changed, and everything in front of them turned into a sea of fire.
Tang Lan pulled a little girl into his arms to protect her, leaving himself to endure the scorching pain from the intense flames.
The pain was so deep that it penetrated to the very marrow and soul, to the point that Tang Lan felt as if she had been roasted to a crisp.
Even when everything around me returned to normal, the pain in my soul remained.
There are eight children here, which means that Tang Lan will have to endure eight different kinds of near-death pain, pain that goes deep into her bones and soul.
Tang Lan would not gain the approval of these little ones if she hesitated even slightly when faced with their pleas for help.
In a sense, Tang Lan is now suffering the same pain that those children faced back then.
These pains truly happened to them countless years ago.
If Death hadn't used its great power to take away this space and everyone's soul, Tang Lan would never have seen such a scene.
Pfft!
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Lan lay down on the ground.
He was drenched in sweat, his chest heaving, and he was breathing heavily. (End of Chapter)
