Chapter 878 How to Use Quicksand Between Fingers

Generally speaking, any ability related to time is considered the top handful in all kinds of film and television works.

For example, time stands still, which people are most familiar with.

Stabilize the enemy by pausing time, and then use this time to output and kill the opponent.

This kind of idea is very beautiful, but the reality is very skinny.

After time is stopped, all people and things around will also stop.

Their relative time is in a static state. Under such circumstances, it is almost equivalent to an invincible in disguise, and there is no way to hurt them at all.

This is the situation Zhang Xiaoman is facing now.

Although Quicksand Between Fingers is not a time-stopping skill, it's not a problem to call it that if it's only superficial.

Just like when he was at the No. 39 sewage treatment plant before, Morris was pulled into the field of quicksand between his fingers, and everything around him became static.

In this state, they can't make any interference with it, and they can't be too far away from the casting location.

Therefore, the idea of ​​killing after a time-stop is impossible.

It is even said that this kind of field is extremely sensitive to the changes of the surrounding dark energy.

If it is an ordinary life form like a mutant, the quicksand between the fingers can easily interfere with them.

But if it is a heterogeneous species with dark energy, then the domain of quicksand between fingers will be difficult to activate.

Because the flow of dark energy will be disturbed by the opponent's dark energy field, thus becoming disordered.

Even if the forced launch is successful, the duration cannot be long.

According to the strength of the opponent, this period of time at the same level will not even exceed two seconds.

Even I can't use dark energy to a large extent in this field, otherwise the field will also collapse.

Can't practice, can't heal wounds, can't kill enemies...

From this point of view, the quicksand between the fingers is indeed a bit tasteless.

But this is only a superficial phenomenon, and there are still many places where this ability can be developed.

Its biggest role is to extend thinking. In layman's terms, it allows people to learn in it. This is also the main purpose of this ability when it was first developed.

At the end of Quicksand between the Fingers, everything will return to the timeline of the main world, with the exception of memories.

In other words, as long as he has this supernatural power, Zhang Xiaoman will be able to spend a lot of time learning and accumulating knowledge in the future.

According to his current ability, one use can last for an hour, and at that time, all his dark energy will be emptied.

Then, combined with his own blue recovery speed, he only needs to wait for about 10 minutes before he can re-enter.

In this way, Zhang Xiaoman can constantly impose the state of quicksand between his fingers, thus having more time than others.

But it should be noted that during this period of time, he cannot practice, nor can he go too far.

Even because of the need to take into account the stability of his own field, he can only be careful when using active dark energy particles to arrange the formula.

Once the surrounding dark energy fluctuates too much, it is very likely that he will be squeezed out from the gap in time and return to the timeline of the main world.

However, if dark energy is not used, there is still a lot of operability.

Items brought into the field by the initiator themselves can continue to be used to a certain extent, such as the most common books for people.

In comparison, the jade slips and jade souls that also contain information, because they contain dark energy fluctuations, tend to destabilize the domain when used, so they are not suitable for bringing in.

This is also the reason why, even in the Immortal Cultivation and Immortal Worlds of the Ancient Divine Continent, there are still many strong people who keep a large number of paper books.

Therefore, these days, Zhang Xiaoman also asked Su Changqing to expand the library in the organization again.

Many things that were originally only recorded in the jade slips were reproduced in the book.

Of course, electronic documents can also be brought in for use.

But from the illusory projection, Zhang Xiaoman prefers the feeling of holding a book in his hands.

Through this method, he now has time to read some other books while practicing.

The types of these books include experience in practice, reports accumulated in the organization, extended information on other planets, and even some information in the fields of science and technology.

It can be said that as long as one has this supernatural power, the limited life can be extended infinitely, so as to master more knowledge.

……

"call……"

With a long sigh, Zhang Xiaoman withdrew from the field of quicksand between his fingers.

"One hour and 13 minutes, this time is longer than last time..."

"Not bad, according to the current frequency, I use it dozens of times a day, and I will soon be able to read all the books on the ancient continent..."

Zhang Xiaoman is still very satisfied with his current state.

He didn't have time to read the books in Tianyuanzong's entire library, so he could only find one or two to read when he was not busy.

But now that he has this supernatural power, he will be able to read all the books in there soon.

Xu Shi heard him talking to himself, and the cyan little dragon in the head of Yujue couldn't bear the loneliness immediately, and played the ability of poisonous mouth, and said:

"Boy, how come you are so happy just now? If it was in the past, just find a little guy in the Nascent Soul stage, and the time to enter the samadhi will be longer than you."

With what it said, Zhang Xiaoman's original complacent mood disappeared.

He knew that although he had the strength of the God Transformation stage, his upper limit of energy was not as good as that of the real God Transformation stage boss.

Therefore, the duration of the quicksand between his fingers will be much lower than that of a normal immortal cultivator.

"Oh? About how long can those cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage last at a time?"

Zhang Xiaoman became interested in this topic and couldn't help asking in his heart.

Ni Yang frowned and thought for a while, as if she didn't know much about the invisible realm of the Nascent Soul Stage.

After a long while, he said in an uncertain tone:
"Well... I remember that when I was in the sect, the two boys Tian Yuan and Tian Feng took in a few disciples with fairly good aptitude. It can last a whole day..."

Zhang Xiaoman was startled, he didn't expect the gap between himself and the other party to be so big.

"Hehe, although your cultivation method has advanced very quickly, but if you don't build a purple mansion and don't condense a baby, your background is naturally very different from those of those who have practiced for decades to get to this point."

"Besides, they have Yuanying connecting nine orifices, opening up fourteen meridians, 48 ​​large acupoints, and [-] small acupoints. The spiritual power flows, nourishes each other, and is endless. It is also more convenient for maintaining supernatural powers."

"Although you have a lot of weird energy recovery abilities, which are quite unique, but you can't use them in the quicksand between your fingers... In this way, in terms of pure endurance, how could it be possible? Their opponents?"

In the head of Yujue, the cyan dragon unceremoniously pointed out his shortcomings.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoman was not only not angry, on the contrary he was quite moved.

It is grateful to have someone who can point out the shortcomings for oneself on one's own path of practice.

Sometimes, Ni Yang and himself have a feeling of being both a teacher and a friend.

"You are right. According to the path I am taking now, it is indeed not as solid as those cultivators. This is an unavoidable flaw..."

Zhang Xiaoman first agreed with the other party's point of view, then shook his head helplessly, and said:
"But you have also seen that the current situation we have encountered, I don't have much time for me to practice slowly...It is already a rare blessing to be able to use this method to quickly improve my cultivation..."

He knows his own affairs, so how can he not understand the method he is practicing now?

But the great fusion is imminent, and Zhang Xiaoman doesn't know when a bunch of dimensional cracks will pop up suddenly, and he doesn't know when a crisis like the scarlet light will happen.

If I don't improve my strength as soon as possible, and when I encounter those powerful alien species, I'm afraid I don't even have the strength to protect myself, so how can I protect others?
Therefore, the way of cultivating immortals that takes decades or hundreds of years is not suitable for me.

If he waits for him to cultivate into a Nascent Soul in that way, the day lily will probably be cold.

It is not the first time that Ni Yang has followed him to Shuilanxing, and he has a little understanding of the situation here.

It even has a clear understanding of the two concepts of the second universe and alien species, and has its own unique way of understanding.

"Hmm... Returning to the Ruins Realm and monsters outside the territory are indeed a big threat. There is a certain reason for your choice..."

"How about this, if the deity is free in the future, I will help you think of a way to find some ways to cultivate your strength and strengthen your foundation, so that you can replenish your body well, so that you don't have so much stamina."

The corners of Zhang Xiaoman's mouth twitched, feeling that what this guy said was very wrong.

"Okay, Ni Yang, when the time comes, I will also prepare a few more sweet-scented osmanthus pills and fairy spirit energy for you, so that you can make up for it too!"

"Tch, I don't care about your little gadgets... But since it's your intention, it's not easy for me to take your face off. It's okay to accept it reluctantly..."

Zhang Xiaoman didn't want to talk to this tsundere dragon again, after waiting for a while, he once again opened the domain of quicksand between fingers.

A day passed quickly, and he used the quicksand between his fingers nearly twenty times in succession, and finally finished reading a book on cultivating immortals that he had prepared.

The books on cultivating immortals are all written in ancient Chinese, with a lot of content, difficult to pronounce, and difficult to understand. There are principles of heaven and earth contained in them, so it is quite troublesome to read.

It is not easy for him to read a book for twenty hours in a row.

As a result, Zhang Xiaoman was quite tired.

It's not physical fatigue, it's all from the spiritual aspect, which makes people feel bored for a while.

"Boy, that's not enough? This deity can reach samadhi for a hundred years at a time, and you have only been samadhi for ten hours, and you are already so impatient. With this state, how can you master the second layer of quicksand between your fingers? "

In the space of consciousness, the taunting voice of the blue dragon sounded again, as precise as an alarm clock.

After hearing what it said, Zhang Xiaoman couldn't help being curious again, and asked:
"Ni Yang, how old are you this year? If according to what you said, if you entered into meditation for a hundred years at a time, wouldn't your actual age be 10 years old? Also, what's the matter with the second level? Can I learn it? ?”

"Age is not calculated in this way. Since the deity was born, it has been more than [-] years, but it has spent more than [-] years in the quicksand between fingers, but no one would count this kind of time as their own. age."

It glanced at its mouth and said again:

"As for the second level... Hehe, you want to run away before you know how to go? Your ambition is not small..."

"I'm just curious, can you tell me about it?"

"Forget it, I have nothing to do if I'm idle now, so let me tell you about the quicksand between my fingers."

The cyan little dragon circled around, stretched out its paws and condensed a colorful cloud, and lay down comfortably on it, then said solemnly:

"Although quicksand between fingers is very effective, it was not a rare and isolated book at that time. If you want to learn it, you can basically learn it by joining a sect at will."

"This supernatural power can be divided into two levels. The first level is the 'quick sand between fingers' in the mortal realm; the second level is the 'violent sea' in the fairyland."

"You already know the first level, so I won't go into details on this deity. Anyone who has the Nascent Soul realm can practice..."

"As for the second level, if you want to learn it, you need not only the strength of the fairyland, but also enough talent. After you have completed it, once you use it, you can change it for thousands of years in an instant!"

"Ten thousand years in a flash!?"

Hearing what it said, Zhang Xiaoman was startled.

"In other words, the effect of vicissitudes is opposite to that of quicksand between fingers!?"

Ni Yang shook his head and said:
"It can be said that way, but it's not true. The two are not simply opposite, but a higher level of sublimation."

"The quicksand between your fingers is to put yourself into a domain. This domain is not an illusion, nor is it an enchantment. Everything in it is real. It's just like Zhuang Zhou's dream butterfly. Once you leave, everything will return to you. In the normal world..."

"The vicissitudes of life are not the case. Through their own sublimation, they enter the realm of the sky beyond the sky. Thousands of years are like a day, and vicissitudes of life can be reached in an instant."

"But there is a prerequisite for doing this, that is, you must be in an unknowable and unreachable field, divide the world with your own power, and then use the power of vicissitudes to evolve this world and create endless treasures... ..."

Ni Yang said that he suddenly waved his hand a little irritably.

"Hey, why am I telling you this? It's as hard as climbing to the sky if you want to cultivate the second stage. Even the deity is just barely getting started. If you want to practice, you'd better master the first stage first. "

Zhang Xiaoman saw that it didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask any more questions, and went back to the library of the Star Alliance to choose another book, and continued to study it when he came back.
