About the story of a brave man being a potato for a thousand years and then the world was destroyed

Just like those ordinary people who Liu Ji had seen struggling to survive, for them, the choice they can make may be nothing more than whether to go out hunting or fishing today.

For people like Ji Lunini who have top martial arts among ordinary people and can easily live a life without worries about food and clothing, the gap between the two is no longer something they can easily cross by making any choice.

Of course, if there is a good opportunity, if you can find a master without starving to death, and work hard, it is not impossible to reach that step.

But, that's the best.

If you want to pursue the path of the master like Mo Wente and Ao Sa, without enough talent, you may only hope to have an adventure.

But, in this world, even if you are a master of the generation, the choices you can make are just as narrow.

Facing the tyrant and the king, they even need to do their best to save their lives.

Compared to them, the brave and the great secret master may be able to do more, but at most they can only delay the destruction of the world. If they want to reverse the situation, there is no way to go up to heaven or down to earth.

And what Liu Ji can do is actually the goal they have always dreamed of, to create a new world and create a future for the people.

But Liu Ji's choice is also limited to this.

Everyone can say nice words, how cool it is to take your destiny into your own hands, but those who say this are either very content, or really lucky, or they will always be slapped in the face by reality.

Just like now, Liu Ji suddenly found out somewhat powerlessly that the path they took may not be due to their own will at all.

At least, not all of it.

But what is even more sad is that when he thought of this possibility, he actually breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart,

because he saw more chances of winning and breathed a sigh of relief.

But in the end, he still pinned everything on a certain invisible big hand. This feeling of powerlessness made him feel that he had been hit hard by reality.

But... after thinking about it more, Liu Ji was relieved again.

He was not a savior, nor did he want to be one. He was dragged into this grand dispute for no reason. Everything he did was just in accordance with his own will and determination.

Even if he was used as a gun, as long as the target he wanted to shoot down was shot down, then perhaps it was not bad.

As for what happened next, he could only take it one step at a time. There was no point in making groundless guesses and hesitations. As the saying goes, use the most cost-effective method to make the most suitable choice for pursuit and interests.

As for now...

"Ha..." Liu Ji yawned and put down the book in his hand.

Sure enough, reading is not suitable for him.

Hmm.

No, maybe it can't be said that way. The writing style in the Secret Sanctuary is really bland. It only records events in detail without a trace of human warmth and coldness. There are often some profound and obscure analyses and tips, which make people drowsy.

And...

Actually, he doesn't need to read these things now.

Lying on the top of the huge bookshelf and staring at the ceiling for a while, Liu Ji scratched his chin and lay on his side again, looking at Ya Yin who was concentrating on reading and taking notes not far away.

Hmm...

It seems that she is not easy to disturb.

Speaking of which, Liu Ji himself seems to have never taken notes while reading since he left his school days...

But it seems that there is no such opportunity...

Thinking carefully, his life has been pretty fucked up since he came to this world.

Although even if it is not the case, he is not a person who likes to read like this.

Compared to reading, Liu Ji still prefers to stare at Ya Yin in a daze.

Just like now, just quietly looking at the person in front of him, letting time pass quietly...

As he looked, Ya Yin suddenly raised her head and looked over.

When their eyes met, Liu Ji smiled.

Ya Yin looked at him, paused, stood up, walked over, and stopped beside Liu Ji.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Liu Ji propped himself up.

"Don't get up, lie down," Yayin said.

"Ah? Oh..." Although Liu Ji was confused, he still did it, lying flat on the ground, looking up at Yayin, and asked, "Then what?"

"Right hand, raise it," Yayin said.

"Like this?" Liu Ji raised his right hand honestly.

"Well, now put it down to the right," Yayin pointed to the ground to the right of Liu Ji.

Liu Ji glanced at the right side. Although he couldn't think of anything special about this action, he still put his hand down for the time being, and looked up at Yayin in confusion, wondering what she was going to do.

Then, Liu Ji watched Yayin slowly sit down next to him, lying on her back very naturally, and resting her head on Liu Ji's arm.

"Eh?" Liu Ji was stunned for a moment.

"What?" Yayin turned her head to look at him.

"Uh, no, it's nothing," Liu Ji smiled, "Are you tired of reading?"

"No," Ya Yin said, turning her whole body to the side, curling up into a ball, "Just want to waste some time..."

"Really..." Liu Ji smiled, turned to the side, gently hugged Ya Yin, and put his forehead against hers.

There was no dialogue, no interaction, only the body temperature of each other, the gentle breathing, and the sound of each other's heartbeat.

Time passed slowly.

In a blink of an eye, a whole year had passed.

Although when the difference in time flow rate is stretched to the extreme, a year here is only equivalent to three days outside.

This year may have been the happiest time Liu Ji has had since he came to this world.

Every day he would just daze and cook. From time to time, he and Yayin would hang out for a while and do things that couples would do.

Occasionally they would quarrel, mostly because of trivial matters. At such times, as long as they looked at the endless arcane creations at their feet, both of them would laugh out loud.

In a place like this, quarreling over dishwashing, maybe there is no one else in the world except them.

But most of the time, the two get along very quietly.

After all, Yayin's character is like this. She won't talk too much if it's not necessary.

It was not easy for Liu Ji to disturb her. She carefully read through the piles of books one by one, taking notes and doing experiments from time to time.

Liu Ji didn't really understand much about her magic experiment, but he could feel that the complexity of the arcane magic was far beyond anything he had seen in the past.

Liu Ji is actually a little strange about this. Even if Yayin has been in that world for ten years, compared to the tens of thousands of years of accumulation in the space under her feet, these ten years seem to be just a blink of an eye. How did she survive in such a short period of time? Time creates such magic.

And Yayin also gave him an answer.

Because the language form of Chinese, especially ancient Chinese, is almost an earth-shaking change compared to traditional mantras.

In the past, no matter what variant of mantras there were, they could all be attributed to some ancient alphabetic language.

The amount of information is presented linearly, like threads, eventually weaving an intertwined mantra.

But Chinese is different.

It is three-dimensional.

A text can form an independent unit of information based on its composition and combination.

This has greatly changed the construction of arcana in terms of efficiency. To use Yayin's metaphor, arcana in the past was weaving cloth with threads and then cutting it into a beautiful dress.

And the arcana constructed based on this newly created text is like building a huge house with piece by piece.

The disadvantages are of course that the basic unit is too large and it is difficult to fine-tune the spell effects.

After all, one cannot wear a house on one's body.

However, if you want to use cloth to repair a house, the upper limit is far lower than using bricks.

With the same level of effort, the final results can be completely different.

Liu Jide admitted that the metaphor is very vivid.

Even though his relevant knowledge is too poor, he can only listen to the excitement. He still has no idea of ​​the specific situation.

He only knew that Yayin valued this arcane skill very much.

As for its purpose, Yayin didn't know whether it was difficult to explain or she didn't want to explain it. He couldn't understand it every time she explained it to him.

I don't know if he really didn't understand, or if Yayin deliberately said it so that he couldn't understand.

No problem, that’s what it’s like to be uneducated.

In the end, he stopped asking and just stayed with Yayin, waiting for her to complete the final pieces of the puzzle bit by bit.

Wait, this year has passed.

Although if possible, Liu Ji would even like to stay here for one more year, two years, three years...

Unfortunately, these days will eventually come to an end.

On this day, Yayin leaned in Liu Ji's arms and said softly: "I think it's time for us to leave."

"Has your arcane magic been completed?" Liu Ji asked.

"It was completed half a month ago," Yayin said softly, "It's just that I couldn't bear to part with it, so, um..."

"Ha, really, I was just wondering why you have suddenly been free in the past half month," Liu Ji also smiled, "Why don't you stop pretending? I'm very reluctant to do so..."

"Because I can't pretend anymore," Yayin shook her head gently. "Even if I know that I can live here for a year, I can only live for three days outside. As long as I have nothing to do, I will panic..."

"Ha, that's true," Liu Ji said with a wry smile, "On this point, it seems that we are almost the same..."

"So, it's time," Yayin said softly, "it's time for you to find the last two fragments. You know where they are, right?"

"Of course, it's just..." Liu Ji looked at the sky, "A sun and a moon, where do you think they will be?"

"What..." Yayin looked at Liu Ji in shock, "You mean..."

"Don't worry, I won't take away the pair of sun and moon," Liu Ji said softly. "Taking them away is equivalent to taking away the life of the entire earth, half of the world. I have no right to give it away." They go to hell."

"Then, you are going to get it..." Yayin looked at Liu Ji blankly, "Could it be?"

"Yes, another world," Liu Ji nodded, "I have seen them. The roots of the sun and the moon, I think, should be universal..."

"Are you sure that as long as you keep going deep underground, you can get there?" Yayin asked, "I still think there will be another world on the other side of the underground..."

"My memory is also very confusing, but I have no other choice," Liu Ji sighed, "However, I am a little worried..."

"What are you worried about?" Yayin asked.

"Tyrant," Liu Ji said softly, "He has been looking for us. The concealment effect of the Water Moon Realm is not perfect. I am not sure whether it can be hidden."

"Have you asked Lim?" Yayin asked.

"I asked," Liu Ji nodded slightly, "He refused to say..."

"Tsk," Ya Yin couldn't help but gasp, "Doesn't that mean it's more dangerous than safe? But why is it now..."

"That's not surprising," Liu Ji said, "Because, in my memory, it takes too long to reach another world and collect things there..."

"How long might it take?" Ya Yin asked.

"About a year," Liu Ji said in a deep voice, "A real year. The tyrant is no longer planning to trouble the Secret Sanctuary. He only spent a year searching for our traces. It's not surprising that the Water Moon Realm would be exposed. And, if he can find such a new world that is still expanding, he will never give up this land..."

"Damn it, then..." Ya Yin's pupils trembled, "Isn't this a dead end? No, I have to find a way to find the people of the Secret Sanctuary with my current identity and let them come out to attract attention... No, that's not right, it's bad..."

"What's wrong?" Liu Ji was a little confused.

"Tsk, I'm not sure, but, wait," Ya Yin said, jumped up, and flew in a certain direction.

Liu Ji was curious and followed.

The two flew one after the other and finally arrived at a huge building behind the giant bookshelf, and finally landed in front of a wall inside the building.

On the wall, there were countless four-pointed stars, and the material of the four-pointed stars was exactly the same as that used by the heroes.

"This is..." Liu Ji was a little surprised.

"The mind communication magic device created based on phase magic," Ya Yin said, "must be made of this precious composite metal. The heroes also use the same process, but the version they use is made by a certain arcane master among the heroes. Each one here is connected to a great arcane master, but..."

"Why, it feels like most of them are so dim..." Liu Ji looked at the four-pointed stars, "It's like there's no power..."

"Ah, because they took the initiative to cut off the connection with the Secret Sanctuary, so these four-pointed stars dimmed," Ya Yin sighed, "I should have known that once the director died, there was indeed a problem inside them... Damn, isn't this a dead end..."
