Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 455: No! No!

"My dear disciple, you can't die here..."

Li Zhi was so familiar with this voice as if it was engraved deep in his soul, but at the same time it frightened him to the extreme!

At this moment, the sound was like a thunderclap, booming in his ears.

Li Zhi felt his hairs all stand up instantly, his scalp went numb, as if countless tiny electric currents were running under his skin.

His whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.

The fear in his heart, which he thought had disappeared with the death of Master Liu, now surged towards him again like a surging tide, and in the blink of an eye, spread to every corner of his body, completely drowning him in fear.

This fear, which came from the deepest part of his heart, actually broke through the confinement and erosion of the Blackwater River on him.

Li Zhi was filled with fear, without any pain or loss of control. He suddenly opened his eyes!

However, the scene before him shocked Li Zhi.

Li Zhi opened his eyes wide and saw that the river water, which was originally as black as ink, was now emitting bursts of soft yet dazzling golden light.

In the light, a figure was slowly walking towards him.

The person who came was the source of Li Zhi’s fear—Master Liu!

Immortal Master Liu was wrapped in golden light, like a god descending to the earth.

The water of the Black Water River automatically parted beside him, as if facing Master Liu. Even the Black Water River that left Li Zhi and others helpless could not restrain or control him in the slightest.

Immortal Master Liu strolled leisurely in the river with light steps, as if he was stepping on solid flat ground instead of rushing river water.

His face, which originally revealed a sinister look, now inexplicably exuded a hint of divinity.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a gentle smile, and he called softly: "My dear disciple..."

This call was like a heavy hammer, hitting Li Zhi's mind hard.

Li Zhi felt a sharp pain in his head, and his entire body shook violently. Then, his consciousness completely dissipated like drifting smoke, and his vision once again fell into endless darkness...

 …

Li Zhi was drowsy, his consciousness drifting in the darkness for a long time, and finally he slowly opened his eyes.

When he saw the surrounding scene clearly, he was surprised to find that he was no longer in the terrifying Black Water River.

The surrounding environment exudes an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if it has appeared in memory before.

He frowned, trying hard to recall this familiar scene, his thoughts churning in his mind.

At this moment, a cold voice sounded beside him: "What are you thinking about? Hurry up and get up!"

The sound cut through the air like a sharp blade, causing Li Zhi to get goosebumps all over his body.

He suddenly raised his head and saw Master Liu wearing the gray Taoist robe that he was very familiar with, holding the black sword covered with runes in his hand, standing not far away.

The sinister look on Master Liu's face remained the same, his eyes revealed dissatisfaction, and he stared at Li Zhi coldly.

"What are you still standing there for? Get up quickly! Don't let that tiger demon run away!" Immortal Master Liu urged impatiently, his voice filled with unquestionable majesty.

Master Liu's words were like a key, instantly opening the door to Li Zhi's memory.

Only then did he remember where he was.

This is Chenjia Village!

When he was at Lord He's house, he begged Master Liu for a long time before Master Liu reluctantly agreed to take him out for some fresh air.

However, he did not expect that after arriving in Chenjia Village, he would witness a tragic incident. The entire village was slaughtered by a tiger demon.

At this moment, Master Liu was taking him to track down the tiger demon that was trying to escape.

Seeing the increasingly gloomy face of Master Liu, Li Zhi did not dare to delay for a moment. He hurriedly got up from the ground and stumbled after Master Liu.

When the two chased all the way out of the village, the scene before them made Li Zhi slightly stunned.

I saw that the tiger demon, which was originally extremely ferocious, had died for some reason. Its huge body lay on the ground, lifeless.

A man in green tights was fighting fiercely with a group of ghosts.

Those ghosts bared their fangs and claws, uttered bursts of creepy roars, and continued to attack the man.

When the man saw Master Liu and Li Zhi rushing over, his eyes immediately lit up with surprise, and he quickly shouted, "Daoist friend! Come and give me a hand!"

Upon hearing this, Immortal Master Liu laughed heartily and said proudly, "Alright! I'll help you!"

After saying that, he jumped up like lightning and joined the battle in an instant.

Master Liu waved the black sword in his hand, and the black sword seemed to be given life, turning into a giant black python, moving flexibly beside him.

Every time he swung the sword, it was accompanied by a sharp sword energy, and those ghosts were chopped down one after another under the attack of Master Liu.

The ghosts' remains were scattered everywhere, and the ground was soon covered with their broken limbs and remains.

Looking at this scene, Li Zhi's head suddenly started to hurt without any warning.

He pressed his head tightly with both hands, trying to ease the piercing pain, but the pain became more intense, drowning him like a surging tide.

The scene before Li Zhi began to distort. The remains of those ghosts kept changing in his sight, sometimes transforming into the limbs of living people, dripping with blood...

Sometimes it turns back into the remains of a ghost, terrifying and hideous...

This strange change filled his heart with fear and anxiety.

Li Zhi pressed his head tightly and murmured, "No... No... It's not like that..."

He clearly remembered that when they caught up with the tiger demon, it was still alive. Moreover, when a ghost dies, it will immediately dissipate into smoke, so how could there be any remains of the body?

As Li Zhi muttered, the scene before his eyes changed faster and faster.

In the blink of an eye, it becomes the remains of a living person, in the blink of an eye, it becomes the remains of a ghost...

Immortal Master Liu, who was not far away, seemed to notice something was wrong with Li Zhi. He put away his sword and clasped it behind his back. He slowly walked forward, a rare look of concern on his sinister face. He asked softly, "My dear disciple, what's wrong with you?"

When Li Zhi heard Master Liu's voice, he suddenly raised his head, even ignoring the headache. He stared at Master Liu with red eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "No! At this time... you haven't accepted me as your disciple yet!"

As soon as Li Zhi finished speaking, Master Liu, who was walking towards him, suddenly stopped, and even the expression on his face seemed to be frozen. Then a dazzling golden light burst out from his body.

The golden light tore through Master Liu's body and shot up into the sky!

The golden light was so bright that it stung Li Zhi's eyes and made him shed tears uncontrollably.

At the same time, Li Zhi's headache became more and more severe, as if a sharp blade was stirring wildly in his mind, causing him unbearable pain.

Finally, Li Zhi could no longer endure the excruciating pain. He looked up to the sky and let out a desperate scream: "Ah ...

Then, with a "thump", he fell heavily to the ground and lost consciousness...
