destiny eternal calamity

"System, if I step into the River of Time, will time have changed when I return?"

"When the host steps into the river of time, this system will leave a time anchor point to help the host return to the original time. From the host's perspective, it is as if no time has changed."

"If I die in the river of time, will I truly perish?"

"No, after the host dies, this system will teleport the host back to the original time, and the host's exploration in the River of Time will end prematurely."

Li Wei felt much more at ease.

It's done!

Anyway, he won't cultivate this ruthless path of ghosts; let whoever wants to cultivate it do so.

If one is devoid of emotion and desire, what is the point of becoming an immortal?

As for whether it might have an impact on future generations, he felt that as long as he kept a low profile and did not leave any offspring, it should not have a significant impact.

Anyway, he doesn't have ten million.

And this is just a spirit bridge; who knows if there will be more restrictions in the future?

If we get controlled by this "Heavenly Dao", we'll suffer the consequences. We can't just stay stagnant forever, can we?

Having figured everything out, Li Wei first went to the princess's residence and had a passionate encounter with Long Bilin.

Then, upon returning to his residence, he began to grope Xiao Shuying.

Xiao Shuying was startled by his sudden harassment.

This brat has only been in the room with His Highness for half an hour, isn't he satisfied yet?

And he just got intimate with His Highness, and now he's doing this and that to me? That's so disrespectful!

"You brat..."

Xiao Shuying was about to scold him when she suddenly noticed a hint of reluctance in Li Wei's expression, so she stopped talking.

This kid's acting strange, like he's about to leave me...

Although the system told Li Wei that time would stop flowing during the period he stepped into the River of Time, it was no different from leaving for a year for him.

That's why he held a 'farewell ceremony' for his two closest beauties, Long Bilin and Xiao Shuying.

With everything ready, Li Wei focused his mind and pressed the system's confirmation button.

[Recharge Points - 160000 (20% discount)]

In an instant, Li Wei felt that everything before him was like a kaleidoscope, chaotic and magnificent.

In a daze, he seemed to see an endless river unfolding before him.

He transformed into specks of light, swimming upstream in the river like a fish swimming against the current.

Countless things and scenes flicker in the river, like fleeting clouds.

Finally, when he came to his senses, he found himself standing in a mountain forest.

The trees here are so tall that they block out the sun, preventing even a ray of sunlight from penetrating the ground.

Before leaving, Li Wei put on his soft armor and took the Dragon-Slaying Sword with him, but now he realized that it was all in vain...

Because he was completely naked! Even the spatial ring on his hand had disappeared.

Li Wei was on the verge of tears, never expecting that the system's teleportation function could only send people away.

That makes sense, though. If they included a free gift, it would probably cost more than that.

After thinking for a moment, Li Wei struck a large tree beside him with a palm strike, knocking it down.

Then, by gathering the power of "All Laws Return to Nothingness," he peeled off the bark.

With a little force, he softened the tree bark.

By wrapping the bark around his body, Li Wei finally managed to hide his second brother.

Only then did he relax a little.

After confirming the terrain, he used the "Eight Steps of Gazing at the Sunset" technique and ran out of the woods.

About half an hour later, Li Wei walked to a valley and suddenly heard a noisy shouting coming from not far away.

He jumped onto a large tree and used the concealment technique that Xiao Shuying had taught him to seal his aura.

A short while later, a group of people dressed in animal fur and looking like savages appeared before his eyes.

This group of people are fleeing for their lives.

A huge wild boar was hot on their heels, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Although Li Wei still wasn't very good at recognizing the cultivation levels of demons, he could confirm that this pig demon hadn't reached the Transformation Realm.

Otherwise, this group of people wouldn't have been caught yet.

At this moment, Li Wei's internal energy reached a thousand, and his physical strength exceeded one million jin. Not to mention demons that had not yet taken human form, he would kill even demons at the Spirit Bridge Realm without hesitation.

However, he didn't know if saving these people would have any impact on future generations, so he didn't take action.

As he was observing, he saw one of the people in the group suddenly stop.

"Father, no!" Li Wei discovered that he could actually understand their language. He had thought these people were savages and that he couldn't understand their language.

"Honey, don't be impulsive!" A woman with a rugged appearance stopped and shouted at the man to dissuade him.

Li Wei continued his observations, adhering to the principle of non-interference.

The man seemed to have made up his mind and stood still.

The red pattern on his body suddenly lit up.

It feels like lava is flowing through your body.

"Drink!" The man's face contorted, and he swung the axe in his hand at the pig demon.

"It's already comparable to the power of a mid-stage Qi Sea martial artist after being empowered by true qi," Li Wei estimated in his mind.

The pig demon didn't have time to brake and crashed directly into the stone axe.

Suddenly, a deafening howl erupted.

The axe looked rough, but it was extremely sharp. With the man's strength and the boar demon's momentum, it cleaved directly into the boar demon's hard skull.

Come to think of it, these people look like savages, so how come they have such sharp metal weapons?

Li Wei kept his questions to himself and continued to observe.

The pig demon did not die on the spot. Fortunately, the group of "savages" were united enough and did not abandon the man and flee in different directions.

Taking advantage of the pig demon's injury, a group of people grabbed their weapons and attacked it.

However, the main cause of the damage was still that man, because he was the strongest and the only one with a metal weapon.

In the end, the pig demon was killed, but the group of "savages" did not feel any joy.

Because that man won't survive either.

His hair turned gray instantly, and wrinkles appeared on his skin.

He seemed to have unleashed all his life force to gain that power.

But the red pattern on his body remained bright.

Even after he closed his eyes, it remained the same.

The burly woman and the child beside her cried incessantly, but the man was beyond waking up.

Then, the bodies of the man and the pig demon were carried away by the group of "savages" and walked out along the valley.

Li Wei quietly followed behind them. With these guides, leaving this boundless forest would be much faster.

Sure enough, in less than half an hour, he saw a small settlement.

This must be the village of these "wild men".

Li Wei hid far away in a tree on the edge of the settlement, using his excellent eyesight, honed through martial arts training, to observe the settlement.

There are no houses, only a few dozen caves carved into the cliff face.

The settlement is backed by a very high cliff; otherwise, they probably wouldn't have dared to settle here.

The only campfire was burning in the largest cave in the middle, which was probably their kitchen and council hall.

The group of "savages" carried the two corpses into the hall together.

Seeing that the savages outside had all gone inside, Li Wei climbed down the tree and crept to the outside of the "hall".

In the hall, there was a very high stone platform, and on the platform was a huge stone egg.

The savages were all kneeling and worshipping the stone egg.

The savage man's body was placed in front of the stone eggs.

The red patterns on his body flowed like real lava and slowly detached from his body.

The "liquid" kept moving closer to the stone egg, and was eventually absorbed by the stone egg!
