Chapter 830 - Traitor (1/2)

"Something followed us back to the present?"

The Fuxi gods were puzzled, they stared at the location that Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan were at but saw nothing.

The Fuxi clan master shook his head, "When the future comes back to the past, they can see and hear everything, but they cannot touch and intervene in our lives, they won't be able to change anything that has happened, and we also won't be able to see them. To them, we are the past, fixed and unchangeable. They are merely observers."

The eight Fuxi gods were baffled, the clan master's attainments were beyond their comprehensions.

"If the future cannot change the past, then how can that evil presence still seal our people?" One of the Fuxi god asked, "When our clansmen lifts the bloodline seals, we will return to 30,000 years in the past and encounter him in the seal. But doesn't this conflict with what you just said? He shouldn't be able to see our clansmen but he can, let alone kill them."

"This is why he is strong, even more powerful than I am." The Fuxi clan master's face was placid, "The Great Curse sealed not only us, but a part of him as well. It opened a world outside of our space and time, one that is independent in every aspect, even time. Whoever touches the Fuxi bloodline seals would be pulled into that world to meet him. As this parallel world is independent of ours, it can be said as the past, the present, and even the future. Even when one day, he is dead, the Great Curse will still not be dispelled and will persist regardless of his death. His attainments in the [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture] are far beyond mine. As long as there are Fuxi that touches the bloodline seals, they will find themselves in that parallel world and die in his hands."

The eight Fuxi gods were dead silent.

To the Fuxi Celestial Race, this was a future that allowed no hope, not even killing the evil presence could change the darkness that hung over their fate.

The Fuxi clan master mulled, he suddenly raised his voice, "Friends from the future, where are you from? Which time period are you from? Which clan do you belong to? Here in the past, what is it that you seek? What do you wish to know, to see, and to find?"

He was a middle-aged man whose eyes were filled with the vicissitudes of life, and his voice resonated with extraordinary charm, "Are you a friend or a foe?"

Moments flashed by.

The Fuxi clan master was disappointed and he mumbled, "Seems like you won't be able to answer me. Following me back to the past, you can only stand outside of the influence of time and space. You can see and hear, but that is all you will be able to do. There's no way you can send me any form of useful messages."

"I am a Fuxi!" Zhong Yue shouted at the top of his lungs.

But, the Fuxi clan master couldn't hear it, no matter how loud he shouted.

Zhong Yue startled. Then, he suddenly found himself and Yin Fanxuan released from the rope that tied them to the thick mast. The rope was an excellent divine weapon, it held them tight to the mast even in the midst of the raging Heavenly River.

Yet, it was as if the rope was non-existent, Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan were able to move past it as if they were ghosts, not bound to any physical substance of the past.

Zhong Yue was dazed, he quickly moved down from the mast, stood in front of the Fuxi clan master and shouted, "I'm also a Fuxi!"

The Fuxi clan master still didn't hear anything, instead, he immersed his senses into the void and felt the flow of time and space around him, he smiled, "I can feel your presences, it's so… strange yet amazing. What a pity we cannot communicate. I am in dire need to know the future, that if we have won or lost, that how are my people living in the future. I want to go to the future and take a look, but every time I go to the future, I find myself dead."

Zhong Yue startled while the Fuxi clan master smiled wrying, he lowered his voice and continued, "I died in my time, my era, I can't go to the future."

But quickly, he adjusted his emotions and bestirred his spirit. He powered the enormous warship toward the unworldly land of the Fuxi Clan, he laughed, "I don't know who you are or which race you are from, or anything else about why you're here. I don't even know if you are a friend or foe. But you and I, it is fate that brought us here together. I've brought two lives back to me from the future. What a marvelous trip."

Zhong Yue tried to initiate physical contact but only found his hand passing right through the Fuxi clan master's body.

He couldn't touch anything in the past.

Yin Fanxuan was also amazed when she tried the same and also couldn't touch anything.

"Brat Yue, this is the marvelous effects of the [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture], it affects through any space and time. You see, you hear, but you cannot change anything. When you try to interfere with the past, you will find yourself returned back to your own space and time." Xin Huo abruptly said.

Zhong Yue calmed himself, he accepted the truth and mumbled, "I want to know what happened 70,000 years ago. Don't worry, I won't try to change anything…"

Xin Huo nodded, "We shouldn't linger long here in the past, it is unchangeable, there is no use here."

"Let me look, Xin Huo. I will return once I see my past people…" Zhong Yue mumbled.

Xin Huo startled but didn't continue to persuade Zhong Yue anymore.

On the other hand, Yin Fanxuan mumbled, "70 thousand years ago? Our Yinkang Clan still hasn't been sealed…"

70,000 years ago.

Zhong Yue's heart thumped excitedly, this was the era of Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan.

Moments later, the fleet sailed into a huge State of River. The State of River was locked down by seals, but there were no obstructions that came from within; instead, the seals were opened from the inside and allowed the fleet to enter.

Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan have finally entered the Fuxi Clan's State of Heavenly River.

"No, no, this isn't the unworldly land, it's not…" Zhong Yue glanced around and said, "Although the seals are strong, they aren't the unworldly land's, they aren't as strong and powerful. Strange, but this is where the Fuxi Clan's unworldly land should be…"

Yin Fanxuan thought, "Could it be, that the unworldly lands haven't been built yet?"

Zhong Yue nodded, there was a possibility.

After some time, the fleet landed on a continent. Zhong Yue saw many Fuxi gods rushing over and received the fleet. There were also the Fuxi civilians that were looking at the Fuxi clan master with their eyes filled with hope.

Zhong Yue could sense it almost immediately, the blood in the Fuxi clansmen wasn't pure. Most of them had either lost their divine third eyes or the snake tails into two legs. The innate dragon scales had been replaced by ordinary skin, and the divine hearts and blood were reduced to that of mere mortals.
