Chapter 615: Years Have Passed

But those people, their situation seems not too good. Gu Xiu and Xu Ruoguang were the only two standing in the field, the rest were either lying on the ground in all sorts of positions, or hanging on the trees in strange postures. There were even some people lying in a sorry state on the shallow bank of the nearby river, completely soaked.
顾绣仰头看看云层之上，又垂头看看下面这些狼狈的人，再看看自己和徐若光，实在是有些糊涂了。
“哎，我说你们够了啊，能不能有点同情心，看我们吊在这里很高兴是吧？”
Ji Yu started shouting again. At this time, he was tied up and hung in mid-air by the vines on the crooked-necked tree, and kept shaking with his movements.
Gu Xiu looked at him and saw that his head was even entangled with a few green vines, looking rather embarrassed. She couldn't help but find it funny and surprising, "Friend Guangyue, what's going on with you guys... why don't you come down?"
Can a dignified true god period cultivator be trapped by a few vines?
Moreover, although these vines from Gu Xiu Guan are quite spirited and belong to the range of spiritual beings, they are only ordinary spiritual plants and cannot be considered as divine trees. It's just that the spiritual aura contained in these vines is not ordinary. Although very faint, the grade of the spiritual aura is not low, and Gu Xiu still feels somewhat familiar with this aura.
Before Gu Xiu could carefully distinguish what kind of scent was contained in the vines, Ji Yu said angrily, "Do you think we're fools? If we could come down, we would have come down long ago."
His words were echoed by almost everyone who could speak now, including the magic cultivators and the ghost cultivators.
However, among these respondents, the always loudest voice, Xue Shan, was conspicuously absent. This puzzled Gu Xiu, and her gaze swept around until she finally found Xue Shan, who was stuck between two tree branches. His waist was tightly wedged between the branches, and his head and feet were swinging back and forth continuously. His rugged face was bright red, looking extremely ridiculous. Seeing Xue Shan, Gu Xiu also believed Ji Yu's words. It seemed that they really couldn't get down by themselves.
"Why can't you come down by yourselves?" Xu Ruoguang asked.
"Why? It's because our bodies are empty, with not even a trace of spiritual energy." Ji Yu replied irritably. He was displeased that Xu Ruoguang and Gu Xiu kept asking questions one after another without offering to help him, but he also knew that he had to rely on them to come down and couldn't afford to offend them at the moment.
"Yu Daoyou, what about you?" Gu Xiu walked over to Yu Minghai, who was lying on the ground and seemed reluctant to get up. The cultivators of the Li Shen Realm are not only cultivating divine breath, but also cultivating physical strength. Even if there is no divine breath in their dantian and meridians, they should still have strength."
于明海看了顾绣一眼，满脸的丧气，顾绣一怔，这是什么表情。
“顾道友，你帮我看看丹姐在这里吗？”半晌，于明海方问道。
Gu Xiu nodded and pointed to the shallow beach not far away, "There."
She had just seen Xiao Dan, still holding onto someone's hand, Jia Zong. However, Gu Xiu only glanced briefly and knew that Jia Zong had already fallen.
She thought of the betrayal of Minghai and Xiaodan by Jia Zong on the light lift before. Although Minghai did not hold Jia Zong accountable for the sake of delivering the contract to the hands of the desperate ancestors as soon as possible, those demon cultivators who were harmed by Jia Zong not only failed to win the contract, but also lost a magical artifact. They will not let him off so easily. Jia Zong should have died at the hands of those demon cultivators.
Gu Xiu looked at the look of Xiao Dan as if he were in a trance, so she didn't go over, thinking that she should not have recovered from the betrayal of her Dao companion.
Yu Minghai reached out and gestured for Gu Xiu to pull him up, it seemed that even the power god realm cultivator who practiced force breathing now had no strength at all.
Gu Xiu pulled Yu Minghai up, and at a glance, Yu Minghai saw the almost skeletal Xiao Dan being pulled by her hand, lying on the shallow bank of the river, with a thin stream of water flowing around her. She looked up at the sky, with hollow eyes.
Yu Minghai sighed and did not go over.
"Gu Daoyou, haven't you noticed that this world is different?" Yu Minghai stood up and asked.
Gu Xiu thought of the higher-level breath she had just discovered in the vines, and the upper realm that Xu Ruoguang had mentioned before, and suddenly realized, "Is this the upper realm? The result came out?"
Although she asked this question, in her heart she was almost certain that this was the truth.
While she was talking to Yu Minghai over here, on the other side, Xu Ruoguang noticed that Gu Xiu, who had been caring and attentive to her before, didn't even ask her how she was doing or if her life was in danger, and just ran over to Yu Minghai. The frustration and bitterness in her heart were almost unbearable, and she wanted to follow him with every step.
"Hey, hey, Xu Ruoguang, if you let me down, I'll tell you a secret!" Seeing Xu Ruoguang about to leave with Gu Xiu, Ji Yu immediately hurriedly said.
Xu Ruoguang glanced at him, "What secret?"
"Put me down first and then we'll talk!" Ji Yu hurriedly said, "It's about Gu Daoyou."
Gu Daoyou, I'm sorry, it's your fault for not putting me down. At a critical moment, I can only save myself and not worry about you.
"Really, I really know!" Seeing that Xu Ruoguang seemed to not believe his words, Ji Yu hurriedly said, "And I have a witness."
Ji Yu said, and his not very flexible head, entwined with vines, struggled to turn back and forth, already allowing his gaze to sweep over the surrounding cultivators as much as possible.
“咦？文历呢？没看到，郁桐呢，怎么也没看到，不管了，还有郁城主和阿敏，当时她们也在的，对了，那个那个，那个躺在河滩上的两人，我记得是叫萧丹和贾宗，当时他们也在的，他们可以证明我说的秘密是真的，徐若光你……”
As Ji Yu's words were not yet finished, a flash of white sword light mixed with green vines swiftly flew in front of him. Before he could understand what had happened, he heard a "thud" as a heavy object landed. He belatedly realized that the heavy object was himself.
He was saved, and at the thought of this, Ji Yu was so excited that he wanted to jump up like a carp. Unfortunately, he had never practiced physical skills and did not have the support of inner energy. With his current weak and powerless body, he couldn't support such an active movement, so he... couldn't stand up.
This is awkward.
姬宇听到周边传来几声讥笑声，他面不改色的和原先一般躺在地上，然后慢腾腾的站起来，还轻轻拍了拍身上的灰尘，很是淡然的问道:“徐若光，这过去多长时间了，怎么丹田经脉中的神息全部耗光了，连体力也耗尽了，再过个一段时间，我们这些还算修炼有成的修士岂不得活活耗死，若是这般，岂不是三界一大奇事？”
As soon as Ji Yu said this, the mocking laughter around him stopped immediately, and everyone pricked up their ears to hear how Xu Ruoguang would respond. Subconsciously, they all believed that Xu Ruoguang knew about this, after all, their bodies were all empty, and yet Xu Ruoguang was able to use magic so easily.
Sure enough, Xu Ruoguang said, "Eleven years and eight months."
"What?" There were exclamations all around.
Ji Yu was also stunned. He wanted to shake his fan to dispel the shock and maintain his composure, but he was disappointed to find that the fan, which had never left his hand before, was now nowhere to be found. Although there were a bunch of folding fans in his storage bag, they couldn't be opened now.
JiYu can't do without his folding fan for even a short time. Once he doesn't have it, he feels like he has nowhere to put his hands, so he immediately sits cross-legged and starts meditating to restore his energy.
But halfway through his meditation, he realizes that he can't go any further down, so he's stuck in a half-squat position, which not only feels uncomfortable but also looks unattractive.
"Xu Ruoguang, what are you doing?" Ji Yu said in anger.
"Are you going back on your word? Should I hang you from a tree again?" Xu Ruoguang asked expressionlessly.
