Chapter 722 Untouched by any magic, unmarked by time
slam-la-
The turbulent silver river surged wildly behind Lin Hanzhou, its surface churning with towering waves, as if something was trying to break through the barriers of time and flow upstream from that unknown space-time.
Finally, after the most turbulent wave of the river of time crashed down, a tall and slender figure slowly emerged from the rushing silver waters.
He was a young man.
He was dressed in white, his robes fluttering in the stillness of the windless space, making him appear ethereal and otherworldly.
His face was exceptionally handsome, his features were like the most perfect masterpiece of heaven, and his brows revealed a calm and composed demeanor that had seen through the vicissitudes of time.
If you look closely, you'll find that the outline of his eyebrows and eyes is strikingly similar to that of Lin Hanzhou, who is standing still, as if they were carved from the same mold.
In his right hand, he casually held upside down a longsword that was entirely silver-white and had intricate star patterns carved on the hilt.
The sword is long and slender, gleaming with a cold light, as if it could easily sever all cause and effect and destiny in the world.
What's even stranger is that this young man in white clearly walked out of the rushing River of Time step by step, yet his white clothes were so dry that not a single drop of water was on them, and not even a single hem was wet.
Untouched by all magic, unblemished by the passage of time!
The moment the white-clad figure was clearly seen, the Emperor, frozen in mid-air, experienced an unprecedented and violent tremor in the depths of his pupils.
He didn't recognize the other person's identity.
Having lived for millions of years and witnessed countless powerful figures throughout history, he possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of all those from the Primordial Era, the Celestial Venerables of the Mythical Era, and the Emperors of the Ancient Era.
However, the white-clad youth in front of him, who bore some resemblance to Lin Hanzhou, seemed completely unfamiliar to him, and he had no recollection of this person whatsoever.
What truly sent chills down the Emperor's spine was the realization, through the river of time behind the white-robed youth and the youth's ability to move without leaving a trace, that the Emperor Yan's "Future Star Tribulation" secret technique was truly terrifying.
"This...this is actually a forbidden secret technique that can reverse time and forcibly summon future beings to the present?!"
The Emperor screamed wildly in his heart, the shock he felt was beyond words.
Among the common knowledge of cultivation in all the heavens and myriad realms, the law of time is the most mysterious and also the most forbidden realm.
Cultivators can use the laws of space to teleport, and they can use the laws of the five elements to summon wind and rain, but time is the one forbidden zone that cannot be touched.
Even the Great Emperor, or even the legendary immortals, can only move forward along the river of time.
Trying to reverse time and return to the past, or to cross the years to interfere with the future, will invite the most terrifying erasure from the river of time.
Because this involves the collapse of causality.
But now, Emperor Yan has actually broken this ironclad rule and summoned a helper from that unpredictable future!
This is so outrageous that it's completely unreasonable!
What terrified and spurred the Emperor even more was that the moment that white-clad figure stepped out of the River of Time, the Law of Destiny, which he was so proud of, completely failed in an instant.
Originally, his sense of destiny could spread like a spider web to every corner of the universe, keenly capturing any hint of danger and providing him with the most accurate predictions of good or bad fortune.
But now, the great net of fate seemed to have been shredded by an invisible pair of scissors, and his vision was plunged into darkness.
The laws of fate could no longer offer him any clues; the future had become an indescribable fog.
At this moment, fate had completely slipped out of his control.
For someone accustomed to being in control, this was more painful and terrifying than being killed.
Just as the Emperor's heart was filled with monstrous waves.
The white-clad youth who emerged from the water had completely transcended the boundaries of the river of time.
He stopped and turned around, looking quietly at Lin Hanzhou, who stood there like a dried-up corpse.
The young man in white did not speak, but simply nodded slightly to Lin Hanzhou, as if engaging in some kind of silent communication that transcended countless years.
Then, the white-robed youth slowly turned around and turned his gaze to the Emperor, who was frozen in mid-air.
As his gaze shifted, the absolute stillness that permeated the edge of the universe and froze all things seemed to loosen slightly.
This slight loosening caused the Emperor's extremely powerful and perfect Chaos Saint Body to instantly unleash its survival instinct.
"boom!"
A muffled explosion resounded in the void as the Emperor finally managed to break free from that sliver of spacetime constraint.
Without any hesitation, he directly revoked the Heaven-Covering Seal, which contained earth-shattering power.
Faced with the failure of the laws of fate and immense pressure from unknown terrors, this once arrogant mastermind made the most humiliating choice he had made in thousands of years—to flee!
His figure transformed into a dazzling golden light, retreating madly towards the depths of the cosmic wilderness at a speed exceeding countless times the speed of light, attempting to widen the distance between himself and the eerie white-clad youth.
Seeing the Emperor's distraught and disheveled retreat, the white-robed youth showed no surprise.
He remained standing in place, not in a hurry to chase after them, but instead, a warm, spring-like smile appeared on his lips.
"We just met, why are we already acting so distant, Your Majesty?"
The young man's voice was clear and gentle, carrying a familiarity and teasing tone as if he were meeting an old friend again, and it echoed leisurely in this broken starry sky.
Upon hearing this, the Emperor, who was frantically fleeing, suddenly froze.
Although he was retreating rapidly, his divine sense remained firmly locked onto the white-robed youth behind him. Hearing the other's familiar tone, his heart was filled with endless doubt and vigilance.
"We just met? What does that mean? I have lived in seclusion for millennia, never having had any dealings with any unfamiliar emperors. Who exactly is this person?"
The Emperor had no idea who this person was; he had absolutely no recollection of that face.
The only thing that made him uneasy was that the other person's eyebrows and eyes did resemble Lin Hanzhou's somewhat, but their temperaments were completely different.
"Could it be...?"
An absurd thought flashed through the Emperor's mind.
"Could it be that at some point in the future, I had some unforgettable interaction with this person, or even became acquainted with them?"
