Chapter 168 Immersive Penance

Yushan Secret Realm.

The air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.

A half-eaten giant bear corpse was discarded not far away, and two well-fed handsome tigers were lazily lying in the grass, licking their bloody hair.

"It should be said that the forest is quite lively except for the lack of humans!"

Qi Sui's slightly tired voice came, and his burly body suddenly appeared in the open space, startling the two tigers not far away.

"Aohou——"

The low roar of a sports car engine sounded in his throat, with obvious warning and threat.

Qi Sui did not pay attention to them, but walked past them as if nothing happened.

The intuition cultivated by years of fighting in the wild made the two giant tigers suppress the desire to pounce on the strange upright ape in front of them, and just kept roaring and watching him leave.

Soon.

Qi Sui came to the area where the secret passage existed before.

What disappointed him was that the secret passage he expected did not reappear, and the scenery in front of him was still a desolate and lonely dense forest.

"Didn't time flow backwards?" Qi Sui was slightly stunned.

He took out his mobile phone to check the time, but found that the phone had already been turned off with zero battery.

"I stayed in the light curtain fragment world for about 10 hours. How much time has passed in the outside world?"

Qi Sui murmured.

The mobile phone had no power and signal, and he didn't carry a clock with him. It was very difficult for him to figure out the passage of time.

But soon, he thought of a way.

He went straight to a big tree, put his palm close to the trunk, and the powerful spiritual power covered it. There was also the extraordinary characteristic of the profession [Spirit of Plants and Trees] that could communicate with plants, and some information was transmitted.

After more than ten seconds, he slowly opened his eyes, and a look of understanding appeared in his pupils.

"Time not only did not flow backwards, but it also moved forward. It took about a day longer than the world of light curtain fragments."

Why?

Doubts troubled him.

Time and space are the most profound and difficult research fields in this world.

Even in today's highly developed science and technology, there are very few research topics in these two fields at Shenhua University, and almost no substantial research results have been achieved.

With Qi Sui's current cognition, it is difficult to explain, and he can only make simple guesses based on his own experience.

The first light curtain fragment occurred in the future world, and after returning to the real world, time went back.

The second light curtain fragment appeared in the ancient era, and the time in the real world moved forward.

Qi Sui didn't know the specific reason, he only knew that he was unlikely to escape from this Yushan secret realm by relying on the time fluctuations brought by the light curtain fragments.

"I admit it. I should have chosen a light curtain fragment from the future world to try it out." Qi Sui clenched his fist and smiled bitterly with some reluctance.

At this point, it has been almost two days since the plane channel was closed. Even if he immediately picked a piece of the future light curtain world fragment to enter, it would be too late.

After all, the time fluctuations brought by the light curtain world fragments only stay in a very small range.

"Forget it! Let's take a rest for a while to replenish our mental strength. As for going back... there will always be a way, it's just a matter of time!"

Qi Sui quickly adjusted his mentality.

He has a professional panel. As long as he spends enough time and energy to brush it, there is no upper limit to his growth. If his strength is strong enough, the distance between time and space may not be insurmountable.

In the following days.

Qi Sui simply calmed down and started to practice hard in the Yushan Secret Realm.

This forest is extremely vast, with a large number of ferocious beasts living, which not only provides a source of experience, but also exercises his fighting skills.

Every day life has become extremely boring.

When he is tired, he goes back to the secret realm to rest, and when he is hungry, he eats some beast corpses to fill his stomach.

Under this hellishly painful tempering, the experience panels of various professions are increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The control of the body, the use of mental power, and the understanding of "momentum" are also constantly deepening.

Let his martial arts foundation, which was not very stable because of the rapid rise in realm strength, become more solid in the high-intensity fight.

...

January 1, 2061.

The first year is not only the most important festival in Xia Country, but also in the world of Canglan Star.

Because it not only represents the passing of the old year and the beginning of the new year, but more importantly, the original God Era was also ended by the human race No. 1 sequence on the first year.

At this time, the sky was dark, the night was dotted with endless stars, and a crescent moon was hanging high, overlooking the earth.

On the playground of Shenhua University, a huge stage and screen have been built to host the upcoming first year night celebration party.

The trees next to the playground are decorated with beautiful colored lights, and some free snacks and drinks are placed on the runway.

The place was crowded and bustling with people.

Those nerds who usually stay at home and study only come to the playground tonight to blend into the festive atmosphere.

Tianqi Building.

In the cold and empty office, only the sound of rapid keyboard tapping can be heard quietly. The faint light of the screen shines on the woman's cold and serious face, which looks more lonely against the dark background.

After a long time, she took a pair of slender jade fingers off the keyboard and stretched a little tiredly. The beautiful and graceful curves of her body were extremely attractive under the outline of the tight white shirt.

On the computer screen was a written experimental paper.

The first author of the paper was "Qi Sui" and the second author was "Mo Ying".

The woman stared at the screen in a daze, and the rapid ringing of the mobile phone interrupted her thoughts.

"Hello, Professor Mo, it's me, Professor Wang Hongwei!"

A magnetic middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Professor Wang, what's up?" Mo Ying said in a cold tone.

"It's like this, Professor Mo, I heard that you want to list your student as the first author of the paper you wrote recently? Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

The man considered his tone and continued: "Your paper is a revolutionary engineering experiment in the field of energy and chemical engineering. It will definitely be included in the top scientific research journals at home and abroad. It will be of great help to your selection as a national academician in the future!"

"Although everyone knows that this experiment was led by you, the persuasiveness of the second author of the paper is not that strong after all, and it is very likely to ruin the big thing!

Mo Ying adjusted the golden glasses frame, and her indifferent face did not show any expression fluctuations. She said lightly: "Thank you for your concern, Teacher Wang, but I think that my student played the most important role in the success of this experimental project, and there is nothing wrong with him being the first author. "

"Well, after all, the paper and the experiment were led by you, Professor Mo. Your ideas are the most important. I just feel a little sorry that the first author position was wasted on a dead..."

Wang Hongwei's words stopped abruptly. Realizing that he had said something wrong, he immediately laughed awkwardly and changed the subject: "Professor Mo, our school is holding a first anniversary celebration tonight. If you have time, come with me to have a look? It's just right to relax!"

Mo Ying's appearance and figure are the best among women. In addition, she has made great achievements in scientific research at a young age and has a bright future. She is the dream lover of many single male teachers in the school.

Wang Hongwei is one of the more shameless ones.

It's just that Mo Ying's aura is too cold, her expression is serious, she doesn't smile, and she always has an attitude of not allowing strangers to enter. Wang Hongwei, a self-proclaimed successful person, doesn't dare to pursue her directly, and can only pretend to make casual hints.

"No, I still have a paper to revise, and I don't like to join in the fun. Teacher Wang, please find someone else to go with you! "

Mo Ying refused coldly and hung up the phone directly.

With her super high IQ, how could she not see through Wang Hongwei's little thoughts, but she was not interested in a greasy middle-aged man with a big belly like Wang Hongwei.

They were all colleagues working in the same school, and Mo Ying didn't want to make a scene too embarrassing.

Just a few seconds after the call ended, the phone vibrated again. It was a message from her mother.

"Yingying, winter vacation is coming soon. When are you going to come back?"

"I'm very busy with school work this year, so I won't go back during the vacation."

"No, Mom has been busy recently. I have contacted several blind dates for you, and they are waiting for you to come back during the vacation."

"One of them is the deputy director of the National Security Bureau in our city. He is only 37 years old this year. I heard that he graduated from a famous school and is handsome. You will definitely like him. "

Looking at the messages that kept popping up on the screen of her mobile phone, Mo Ying, who was already in a bad mood, became more and more irritated and directly edited the message to reply.

"Mom, don't be so busy anymore. I am not interested in the men you selected, and I have no plans to get married for the time being."

A series of voice messages came.

Mo Ying knew that the scolding must be very fierce, so she didn't click to listen, but directly converted it into text.

"Mo Ying, I raised you so big and let you receive the best education, but you raised such an ungrateful person like you?"

"You are almost 30 years old. Do you know that the best childbearing age for women is about to pass! If you don't get married, will anyone want you?"

"I spent all my efforts to find a blind date for you, and you are not satisfied with it! Okay, then tell me, what kind of man do you like? "

"Mo Ying, I tell you..."

Mo Ying's thoughts were a little confused.

She never read the following voice message again, and her red lips murmured: What kind of man do I like?

Somehow, a bright and sunny handsome smile suddenly appeared in her mind.

"Hello, teacher, my name is Qi Sui!"

"Teacher, this part of the experimental data is all done!"

"Teacher, don't worry, just leave it to me!"

"Teacher, come to me!"

"..."

After a long time, a very shallow arc appeared at the corner of her lips.

Perhaps, she didn't know what kind of man she liked, but she certainly couldn't hate a man like Qi Sui.

…
