The big clock in front of him was extremely exquisite. It was rotating every moment and there was a green halo surrounding it. It was extremely beautiful and mysterious.
Ye Sheng stood in front and looked at the Candle Demon Universe. He asked, “How do I activate it?”
Ye Sheng had never used a big clock before. He had walked in the river of time and space a few times, but he was always passive. He did not know how to activate the big clock.
Candle Demon Qiankun’s cultivation base was much higher than Ye Sheng’s, but he was definitely more powerful than Ye Sheng. Therefore, he had to activate the big clock.
Candle Demon Qiankun carefully observed the big clock. This was a huge valley hidden in the mountains. It was covered by the shade of the trees. There were not even a single wild beast.
Of course, it could also be that the pressure was so heavy that no wild beast dared to come here.
In the valley, in front of the big clock, candle demon Qiankun carefully used his mana to wrap around the clock and began to rotate.
Crack Crack Crack!
It was very strenuous to rotate in the opposite direction, but in order to return to the past, candle demon Qiankun used all his strength.
“I want to go back and see my wife, my son, and my friends.”Candle Demon Qiankun roared loudly. His veins and tendons exploded, and all the energy in his body completely burst out at this moment.
Boom!
Candle Demon Qiankun’s cultivation base also exploded out completely. It was extremely terrifying. He had reached the immortal King Realm.
After the half-immortal realm was the immortal, after the immortal was the Immortal King, and after the Immortal King was the immortal emperor.
Candle Demon Qiankun’s cultivation base was already very terrifying at the immortal King Realm. He was only one level away from that final step.
He was two levels higher than Ye Sheng, and now he was using his full power. Terrifying Energy swept out in all directions, and Ye Sheng couldn’t even stand firmly. He tried his best to stabilize himself.
In the valley, grass danced in the air. A strong wind blew and the energy swept. It was as if something terrifying was about to happen.
The few people guarding the big clock were also secretly observing. They watched silently. When candle demon came, he bowed in all directions. This meant that he was one of them. That was why these people did not make a move.
In the next second, the big clock began to spin rapidly.
It was not forward, but reverse.
The big clock was turning back time.
Ye Sheng and candle demon Qiankun were enveloped in it. The two of them seemed to be sucked in and could not be controlled.
Candle Demon Qiankun released his grip. Tears were about to fall as he laughed out loud, “I’m finally going back. I’m going to atone for my sins. God, thank you.”
The guilt in Candle Demon Qiankun’s heart was greatly alleviated at this moment.
He had missed out on too many things in the past. Now, he needed to find those things that he had missed out on.
Even if he had to sacrifice his life, he would not hesitate.
Back then, candle demon Qiankun was timid, cowardly, and afraid of death. Now that Qianfan had experienced everything, he saw his original self. He chose to face his heart and choose to make up for it.
Candle Demon Qiankun wanted to make up for his past mistakes.
Ye Sheng watched silently from the side. This was a story of a prodigal son turning back, but it was too late.
If he did not have the big clock, candle demon Qiankun would have spent his entire life in regret. He would have tortured himself to the point of insanity.
Candle Demon Qiankun was not a good person. He was a weak person. However, at the last moment, he chose to fight.
He had been weak for his entire life. He did not want to be weak anymore.
The big clock opened the river of time and brought them into the river of time. They began to rush towards the battle.
Candle Demon Qiankun was silent. His emotions were complicated and Ye Sheng did not bother him.
Ye Sheng was not unfamiliar with the river of time. He had walked through it before.
Now that he had walked through it again, Ye Sheng’s eyes were calm. There was no joy or sadness. There was only the will to fight. He was going to face the destruction of an era.
This war would engulf the entire universe, engulfing an entire era. If Ye Sheng joined in, he would only be an insignificant chess piece. He would not be able to change the outcome that had already happened.
“But I can change the outcome of our era,”Ye Sheng thought firmly.
The river of time continued to flow, moving towards the past. Ye Sheng and candle demon Qiankun both had the symbol of a large clock on their bodies, protecting them from getting lost in the river of time.
Every second that passed in the river of time meant that they had traveled a hundred or a thousand years into the past.
Such speed was simply inconceivable.
The big clock was a rare magical treasure that could do it. It could no longer be described as a divine artifact.
Candle demon Qiankun said, “When we return to the battlefield, you have to follow me. I’ll protect you.”
Ye Sheng replied, “Aren’t you going to find your family? I can be alone.”
Candle Demon Qiankun frowned and said, “I promised Chu junwang that I would protect your safety. If necessary, I will send you back. I still have the power of a large clock. Once it is activated, I will be able to open the river of time and space again.”
Ye Sheng thought for a moment and said, “Alright then.”
It was safer to follow Candle Demon Qiankun. For the sake of his own life, Ye Sheng still agreed.
He could leave alone, but he had no way of returning.
Ye Sheng could not find the big clock during the epoch-destroying battle.
Baby Ancestral Dragon came out of Ye Sheng’s body out of curiosity. He blinked his big eyes and said, “Is this the river of time?”
“This is the river of time. If you leave Ye Sheng and enter the wrong time, we will not know each other even if we cross paths,”said Candle Demon Qiankun.
Baby ancestral dragon was so frightened that it immediately wrapped half of its body around Ye Sheng’s neck and said, “How terrifying.”
Ye Sheng was just about to comfort baby ancestral dragon when his body stiffened and he frowned. He saw an unbelievable figure.
Old Turtle!
With the turtle shell on his back, he landed on the ground with his hands behind his back. He had a cigar in his mouth, a pair of sunglasses on his face, and a few black hairs on the top of his head.
How... How did he meet it?
Ye Sheng tugged at candle demon Qiankun and said, “Look.”
Candle Demon Qiankun took a look and his eyes widened. He said in disbelief, “Why is this old bastard in the river of time and space?”
“Could it be that the other party can open the river of time and space?”Ye Sheng guessed. Powerful experts could open the river of time and space and travel in it.
But that would require a supreme cultivation base.
Candle Devil Qiankun was at the Immortal King Realm. If he couldn’t open the river of time and space, he would have to borrow the help of the great clock. In that case, wouldn’t the old turtle have already reached the immortal emperor realm?
“Damn that old bastard, he hid himself very well. No one knows his origins. A thousand-year-old turtle with 80,000 years of lifespan. This fellow’s lifespan is hard to imagine.”Candle Devil Qiankun cursed behind his back.
Ye Sheng wanted to say something, but the old bastard actually walked to their side from afar, as if they were traveling together.
“Sigh, living is really boring. I’ve lived for another era. I can’t die even if I want to,”the old bastard said smugly.
Ye Sheng and Candle Devil Qiankun listened with speechless faces.
Although the old bastard was traveling with them, Ye Sheng could see him at different times, but the old bastard definitely couldn’t see them.
Candle Demon Qiankun wished he could stab old B * Stard to death to vent his anger.
“That shameless little guy is really pitiful. He actually wanted to go back to the previous era through the big clock. What a fool,”old B * Stard suddenly mocked.
Candle Demon Qiankun widened his eyes, he said incredulously, “How did this old B * Stard know? He definitely won’t know at this time. I decided that no one would know through the big clock. Even if old B * Stard found out later, it shouldn’t be at this time.”
Ye Sheng also looked at the old bastard in shock. What did he mean just now?
Could it be that the big clock couldn’t send them to the previous era?
