An Ancient Town, the Eye of Time and Space / Dreaming of the Inca? Time Travel?

Mo Fan pondered it carefully, then realized what had happened and cursed, "Damn it, so I guess I got dragged into this by you guys."

"We really thought they were the last wave to arrive," Dongfang Lie said helplessly from a short distance away.

Now, Dongfang Lie has replaced Lu Yilin's position. His Fire Element. With his Innate Talent and the blessing of +1 Fire Element magic level, he is the highest output in the team with High-level Two Fire Element.

Lu Jun looked around at the swarming Nazca Strange Bird that were closing in, his expression calm.

With his full range of high-level strength, he was able to protect himself from the siege of tens of thousands of Demon Beast servants, advancing and retreating seven times with ease. Not to mention that the Mermaid Monarch in his Portable Space was asleep, and could be easily killed once she possessed him.

However, Lu Jun's goal was to enter the storm's circle, so he suggested, "These strange birds are not suitable for a direct confrontation. This attack is easy to deal with, but what if there's a next one after we've dealt with it, and it turns into a chase by 100,000 Demon Beast?"

"It would be better to retreat into the storm's containment zone behind us, use natural lightning to block it, and then try to eliminate it completely."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's expression changed, clearly revealing their biggest worry: would there be a next time?

Ai Jiangtu decisively agreed, saying, "Then we shouldn't delay. Before the strange bird arrives, let's hide in the storm and fight to the death."

The group hurriedly packed their belongings and headed towards the storm's edge against the strong winds.

Waaaaah~

As soon as Lu Jun stepped onto the edge of this towering black dragon-like storm, he immediately felt the strong winds whipping against his face, stinging him painfully. There was also a force pulling them deeper into the storm.

The closer the gale gets to its core, the greater its power becomes, gradually transforming from something ordinary people can withstand to something that can even tear apart Servant-level.

Left with no other choice, everyone in the team had to advance while enduring magical defenses.

At this moment, Lu Jun's fifth-level Water Shield amazed everyone present. With the support of the top-grade Northern Darkness Heavy Water Soul Seed and the treasured Water Repelling Pearl, the massive amplification was nine times. He could easily resist the attacks of an Advancement Period warrior with just a Primary Magic.

Black jade-like scales grew on everyone's skin, and several jet-black Water Dragon coiled and intertwined around them, forming a Water Armor Robe. The black water was condensed and heavy, shimmering and radiating the color of steel.

The surface is covered with tiny, deep vortexes. All attacks are first dissolved by the Yin energy, then swallowed by the Sea Abyss, then rebounded by the Tide, and finally withstood by Xuan Zhong. After being worn down by layers of effects, it is invincible.

They only need to set up a defense, and they can stroll calmly through the storm.

Zhao Manyan said sourly, "Sigh, it seems I'm useless. When it comes to money, Young Master Lu is still the best, with level five magic and Soul Seed."

Rumble!

In addition, lightning bolts leaped through the storm, striking randomly across the land with a deafening roar, turning large swaths of land into scorched earth, creating huge craters, and sending boulders flying.

Everyone trembled with fear; any one of the lightning bolts was equivalent to Super Rank magic, and those struck by it were instantly reduced to ashes.

Fortunately, the density of the lightning strikes wasn't too high, giving them some room to maneuver.

Bah! Bah!

Just as Mo Fan thought he could briefly escape the mysterious bird, a series of shrill cries came from behind him.

Zhao Manyan back and saw the emerald blue-winged bird swooping down, blotting out the sky. Braving the endless winds and continuous thunderstorms, he couldn't help but curse inwardly, "Damn it, what grudge do they hold against us like this?"

In an instant, Lu Jun and the others were surrounded, and each of them used magic to fight back.

Northern Darkness Heavy Water, Water Glory Sky Curtain, Cage!

Lu Jun's expression was solemn as he controlled the stars, and one after another, dark wave patterns rose up, intertwining to form a magnificent constellation.

As the water vapor in the void condensed, tiny black droplets, resembling steel beads, appeared. These droplets then coalesced into a deep, dark vortex of the Northern Sea, unleashing a terrifying devouring force that forcibly pulled hundreds of nearby monstrous servant birds into it.

Thump! Thump!

The strange birds plunged into the whirlpool, were corrupted by the extreme yin, crushed by the profound weight, and washed away by the Tide. One by one they exploded, their bodies shattered and completely dissolved.

A moment later, a brightly colored feather emerged from the depths of the whirlpool.

Lu Jun's eyes narrowed, realizing that it was a symbol of the strange bird Demon Beast and also the weakness of the Nazca Geoglyphs. Once the strange bird carrying the symbol was killed, all the phantom images of the strange bird would disappear.

Therefore, the Nazca Geoglyphs unrest was actually quite easy to contain.

But Lu Jun didn't have time to get entangled with these strange birds. Who knew what the upper limit of Nazca's forbidden magic was? A million? Tens of millions? Or even hundreds of millions?

Killing the symbol at that point would be a drop in the ocean; it would be best to quickly go to the Storm Forbidden Center, use up the Nasca Gem, and return them to end the war.

On the other side, the members of the National Government Supernatural Power. Jiang Shaoxu used her Mind Element to lure the strange birds into a group, Mo Fan used a high-level Shadow Element magic [Night Ruler] plus a level 4 Giant Shadow Nail to form a control array that tightly restrained them.

Subsequently, Dongfang Lie and Mo Fan's high-level Fire Element "Sky Flame Funeral" swept down, and their killing efficiency was not much slower than Lu Jun's.

A group of people fought their way out with all their might, but had no choice but to continue deeper into the enemy territory.

Chapter 320 Ancient Town, Eye of Time and Space

Waaaaah!

Deep within the storm's perimeter, the Nationalist government officials and others gasped for breath. The destructive power of the raging winds from all directions had already reached a level that could shake even General-level.

Even with Lu Jun's Water Shield, things weren't entirely safe. Each of them took out their long-accumulated defensive magical artifacts, continuously converting magical energy into shields to resist the raging winds from all sides.

The only option now is to hold on and wait for the strange birds outside to leave; it's a test of endurance.

As soon as Mo Fan entered the core area, he wandered around aimlessly.

Seeing this, Lu Jun understood; the other party had also discovered the Peru ruins at the eye of the thunderstorm tornado.

Because both Mo Fan's Azure Dragon Pendant and the Evil Bead were flashing, they were reacting to the Time-Space Liquid buried in the Ancient Ruins.

His was similar, with White Tiger Pendant, Nasca Gem, and the eye of the storm echoing each other.

At this point, disagreements arose among the members of the National Team.

The members, led by Guan Yu, Mu Tingying, Nan Rongni, Li Kaifeng, made a conservative decision to wait in place until the strange bird retreated.

The other faction, encouraged by Mo Fan, wanted to venture deeper into the storm. Jiang Shaoxu, who inherited her brother's curiosity about archaeology, was very supportive, as was Nan Jue, who also wanted to see the civilization of the ruins. Zhao Manyan and Jiang Yu risked their lives to accompany them.

Lu Jun then suggested, "How about this, I'll go with Mo Fan and the others, Ai Jiangtu, you stay here and guard them."

Upon hearing this, Ai Jiangtu nodded helplessly. This was the only way. Within the National Government, one person represented the interests of one faction, and disagreements were not enough to explain the conflict.

Only Lu Jun could keep the situation under control and unite everyone; it's just unclear why the other party agreed to separate.

Lu Jun took the lead and led the other five people deeper into the storm. The storm grew more and more violent, and the lightning became more and more intense, even landing not far from their feet.

This core area, constantly battered by fierce winds and lightning, has transformed its land into a solid, imperishable black glass, untouched by even Super Rank magic. If it could be mined, it would undoubtedly be a top-tier material.

Jiang Yu felt a chill run down his spine. "Should we go back? This is too scary."

The group stopped at the end, because there was no way forward.

Endless lightning intertwined to form a vast ocean, creating a net-like canopy that descended from the sky, striking indiscriminately and causing the space to tremble.

Upon seeing this, Nan Jue fell into deep thought, then suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "This is a restriction! Could this storm have been man-made? The ancient Native American civilization was truly remarkable!"

Mo Fan, who had initially expressed regret, scratched his head upon hearing this and asked, "What's the difference?"

"Don't you understand?" Nan Jue said, unable to hide his joy, "If it's a restriction barrier, it means there must be an entrance. As long as we find this path, we can enter safely."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. Everyone who came here had the idea of making a fortune, and they were all eager to get started.

Beside him, Lu Jun examined the barrier, his heterochromatic eyes gleaming. A winding, transparent path meandered through the endless lightning, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

He also saw through some of the tricks of the trade. He joked that after two years of careful instruction from the array master Dean Xiao, he was far superior to someone like Mo Fan, who was an uneducated amateur.

This time, with him Nan Jue, both proficient in formations, discussing and exploring together, and with his defensive magic, things weren't as urgent as in the Original Timeline, where Zhao Manyan alone struggled to withstand the onslaught of the gale, nearly exhausting his magical energy and causing everyone to perish.

Soon, the two verified each other's findings, explored the dragon veins and discovered the most suitable path.

The six set off, passing by terrifying seas of lightning right above them on both sides.

Pop! As they passed through a thin membrane, everyone's vision blurred.

In an instant, a beautiful world, like an oil painting, unfolds before your eyes, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers. Green fields and seas of flowers are brimming with spring, and an ancient town stands serenely, as if frozen in the twilight of time, full of a sense of vicissitude.

"We're in!" Zhao Manyan exclaimed excitedly. "This city, this paradise on Mortal World, is a separate space! I think it must be a genuine Peru ruin."

Everyone was equally shocked, overwhelmed by the spectacle before them.

The entire town was still filled with the unique fragrance of flowers and plants, without any sense of decay. The huge black storm was like a wall of time, freezing this independent space within the eye of the storm in that era.

Jiang Shaoxu pointed to the Li Fan Flower badge on the city gate, and said with great surprise, "This town must be very old, to have such a flower."

"We've struck it rich! Let's head to the city!"

Zhao Manyan shouted and hurried into the city.

The others dared not delay and followed behind.

Mo Fan seemed to have a pre-existing goal, walking straight towards the town's central garden. Everyone had their own objective, disappearing without a trace as soon as they entered the town.

What no one noticed was that they subconsciously overlooked something, such as the fact that Lu Jun, the strongest National Mansion Captain who played a key role along the way, was completely forgotten.

At this moment, Lu Jun is in great danger.

As soon as he stepped into the ancient city, he sensed something was wrong; it was as if he were separated from his teammates and in another parallel universe.

No matter how much Lu Jun shouted, Mo Fan, Jiang Shaoxu, and Zhao Manyan could not hear him. Even when he touched them, they passed through him as if they were phantoms.

What happened?

Lu Jun was extremely uneasy, but then an unexpected change occurred. He suddenly sensed a vast and boundless power descending from the sky, tearing through layers of space and time to descend upon this world. His mind trembled, and he felt a certain sensation of being stared at.

Warnings for Mind Element and Curse Element are sounding loudly, and passive abilities such True Name Precognition and Thousand Mile Soul Lock are all reacting.

He suddenly looked up and saw a magnificent scene: the dome twisted with the Light of Years, filling the sky; the high clouds surged violently like boiling water in a pot, exuding both majesty and sacred aura.

The vast, thick clouds suddenly dispersed layer by layer, a storm appeared, a tornado soared to the sky, and a deep, concave vortex emerged, revealing a huge, crystal-clear vertical pupil, like the eye of heaven, filled with an indescribable Daoist aura.

"The Eye of Time and Space!!"

Lu Jun's expression changed slightly, realizing what this enormous eye of heaven was. The original story clearly stated that this small Peru town concealed the [Eye of Time and Space].

At the same time, the ancient town also runs through the Earth's crust, at another point on the other side of the planet, that is to say, there is another entrance in the Kunlun Mountains of the Nine Provinces.

The so-called Eye of Time and Space is one of the Six Divine Eyes, containing at least the power of Middle Emperor, and is suspected to be the world's fundamental authority in Magic Plane.

There's no need to elaborate on its meaning; all that's needed is to understand that the ruler of the Pacific Ocean Sea Demon Empire, [Cold Moon Eye Demon God], possesses the two divine eyes, [Azure Sea God's Eye] and [Tide God's Eye], which allowed him to reach the peak of the Middle Emperor realm.

As the foremost of the Six Divine Eyes, the Eye of Time and Space must possess mysterious power.

Before he came, he had reason to suspect that the ancient Inca Empire had worshipped the Eye of Time and Space, which was the empire's most precious treasure. All the Nazca Geoglyphs, the Time-Space Liquid, the Li Fan Flower, and other magical techniques were developed based on it.

Perhaps the empire's destruction was also related to this.

After all, spectacular sights can ruin a nation, Your Majesty!!

Lu Jun took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He knew about the Eye of Time and Space, yet he still chose to step into it. Naturally, he was prepared to activate the Ancient King Armor Robe at any time, transform into Undead Emperor, and escape.

No matter how powerful the Eye of Time and Space is, it is still an inanimate object and cannot trap him.

Therefore, Lu Jun carried the [Nasca Gem] with him, hoping to take a gamble and see if he could find the strongest opportunity, such as the inheritance of the Inca Empire.

It seems to have been a success, but the scale of this operation was far too large.

Most surprisingly, Lu Jun discovered that even in this apocalyptic, earth-shattering scene, Mo Fan and the others remained unmoved, passing through it like phantoms.

He started to panic a little.

Chapter 321 A Dream of the Inca? Time Travel?

Rumble!

In the sky above the ancient town, lightning flashed and thunder roared, dark clouds filled the sky, Eye of Time and Space, though crystal clear, remained cold and indifferent.

Just as Lu Jun was about to break the seal on the Ancient King Armor Robe and transform into the Undead Emperor, the Nasca Gem in his arms suddenly reacted violently, unleashing a vast and powerful force that broke free from his restraints.

With a thunderous roar, it transformed into a pillar of light that shot into the sky, rising into mid-air.

The dazzling azure pupils echoed the Eye of Time and Space above, each shooting out a beam of light. The two converged in the void, causing terrifying and mysterious waves to ripple, space to collapse, and a transparent vortex to twist and gradually expand.

"Not good!"

Lu Jun realized that things were developing beyond his control. He let out a low roar, his eyes turning sinister and chilling. Various characteristics emerged, and an endless Nether Radiance was about to rise, with the aura of a supreme being sweeping across the ancient town.

But that twisted, collapsed area instantly engulfed everything, sweeping him into it.

"It's just Eye of Time and Space; King of Hell can tear everything in the world apart."

Buzz! A surge of supreme power erupted from Lu Jun's body, giving him boundless confidence.

Unexpectedly, he was enveloped by the Light of Years and lost consciousness in an instant. His body drifted into the depths of eternal darkness like a blade of grass, with only the White Tiger Pendant around his neck gleaming with platinum light.

From a higher dimension, a point in Peru's Great Gobi Valley appears sunken, with the spacetime surface undulating, and a colossal black hole hovering in the sky above.
