Chapter 247: Chapter 246: The Unconscious Ji Kongkong

Translator: 549690339

Ji Zhi had mentioned the Time River to Jiang Li more than once, stating that it was shrouded in dense fog, and any place where the fog was thick, one could never pass through.

Ji Kongkong proved this point.

Jiang Li provided a counterexample.

Jiang Li could walk freely on the riverbank, and the thick fog couldn’t stop him at all.

The world of the Time River truly only contained the white fish in the river, with no other living beings.

The white fish disliked movement, lingering at a single point in time.

The Past and Present Sword was an exception among the white fish. Only it had unlocked spiritual intelligence, bouncing around energetically. It was distinct among the white fish, and its major difference from normal fish was that it dwelled in the Time River.

Jiang Li strode off towards the past, leaving countless fractions of time behind him.

Twelve hours, twenty-four hours, forty-eight hours…

Half a month, one month, two months…

Half a year, one year, two years…

Five years, ten years, twenty years…

Fifty years, a hundred years, two hundred years…

Jiang Li walked to the distant past, the thick fog still couldn’t stop his pace.

He saw himself just having overcome the fifteenth heavenly tribulation, a latecomer in the cultivator system.

He saw himself easily defeating the extraterritorial devil, protecting Jiuzhou.

He saw himself reaching the Mahayana Realm with luck and intent.

He saw himself forced to ascend the throne, fighting against two individuals at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

He saw Jiang Yixing being deceived by the extraterritorial devil, learning the method of demonic cultivation, and heading towards the abyss.

“This must be that Celestial Level Extraterritorial Devil who lurked in Jiuzhou for a while.”

Initially, Jiang Li had wanted Ji Zhi to keep practicing and tracing back even further in time to find this extraterritorial devil, but Ji Zhi turned out to be unreliable, so he had to do it himself.

The extraterritorial devil was cloaked in a wide black robe, its appearance unclear. All one could tell was its roughly humanoid shape.

Jiang Li was disappointed as he couldn’t extract much information from the scene.

Jiang Li still wanted to move forward to see how this extraterritorial devil descended on Jiuzhou. Maybe it didn’t conceal its face back then.

It was then that Jiang Li suddenly remembered what Ji Zhi had said: cultivators shouldn’t stay in the world of the Time River for too long. Staying there continuously was equivalent to uninterrupted application of the power of time. The light consequence would be complete depletion of spiritual energy, the grave one, the loss of life and cultivation.

Jiang Li himself was fine, but Ji Kongkong was still in there!

Jiang Li hurriedly ran back, returning to the original place, he saw Ji Kongkong lying on the ground, barely breathing.

“Uncle Jiang, I was waiting for you, can we go back now…” Ji Kongkong’s eyes were cloudy, showing signs of unconsciousness.

“Good girl, it’s my fault for not considering you. Let’s go back now.” Jiang Li guiltily picked up Ji Kongkong, continuously apologizing.

Jiang Li knew that Ji Kongkong could return by herself, her worry was that he himself didn’t know how to return, so she forcibly stayed there, waiting for him.

However, Jiang Li indeed did not know how to return.

Ji Kongkong used the last of her strength to open a rift, and Jiang Li, carrying Ji Kongkong, returned to Jiuzhou.

The second princess, Ji Huayu, saw Jiang Li and her sister vanish, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them reappeared.

But the state of the two was drastically different from when they had disappeared. Jiang Li anxiously held Ji Kongkong in her fish form, and Ji Kongkong was unconscious from exhaustion.

“What happened?!” Ji Huayu was taken aback, Ji Kongkong’s state was too terrible.

Without time to explain, Jiang Li infused her with pure spiritual energy while dashing into the Yangxin Hall to seek help from Ji Zhi.

Ji Zhi and several ministers were still discussing the ‘human’ issue, when their discussion was abruptly interrupted by Jiang Li.

They had never seen Jiang Li so anxious before.

“Come and see what’s happened to Kongkong!”

Seeing the situation, Ji Zhi didn’t care about the discussion on legal issues anymore and ran over to check on his precious daughter’s condition.

“Phew, she’s alright. Just an overexertion of spiritual sense. Some sleep and she’ll be fine.” Ji Zhi let out a sigh of relief, hearing this, Jiang Li also felt ease.

Jiang Li took out superb celestial treasures and elixirs to recover spiritual sense and gave them to Ji Kongkong to ingest, causing many high-level cultivators to turn green with envy. Even the treasury of the Zhou Dynasty didn’t have many of these, indicating their high value.

Especially that Eight-Polar Sea Expanding Elixir which could foster the spiritual platform, expand the Sea of Consciousness, and enhance spiritual sense. It was a top-grade elixir for spiritual sense, rare in ingredients, and extremely hard to refine, even Su Wei only had a success rate of one-fifth.

Ji Zhi watched his beloved daughter continuously taking celestial treasures that Jiang Li had accumulated, his mouth twitching. These things, some were for instant recovery of spiritual sense, some for slow recovery, and some even laid a foundation for the enhancement of spiritual sense.

Jiang Li had never given such good stuff to him!

Ji Zhi could imagine, with Ji Kongkong’s growth, the medicinal effects accumulated in her body would gradually take effect, making her a cultivator with unparalleled strong spiritual sense.

The elixirs and treasures Jiang Li gave to Ji Kongkong were indeed powerful, so Ji Kongkong kept sleeping to absorb the medication.

Ji Kongkong’s bedroom had a bed and a tub filled with water, which was for the fish form Ji Kongkong, just perfect for the current situation.

Jiang Li put Ji Kongkong into the tub, letting her rest.

“But it’s strange, this is the result of overusing the power of time. What did you guys do?”

“We went to the Time River.”

“What?” Ji Zhi thought he was hearing things.

Jiang Li narrated everything from start to end, and Ji Zhi felt as if a new door had been opened.

“Thank god you broke up Shunzu and his ex-girlfriend, otherwise where would my Ji family be?”

Jiang Li felt that Ji Zhi’s concern was misplaced.

“Your daughter, at the eighth level of Qi cultivation, could take me to the Time

River. You’re in the late stage of Divinity Transformation, just a step away from the Body Integration Realm. Why can’t you do it?”

Ji Zhi bragged: “This proves that my Kongkong has a high talent. She could go to the Time River without reciting any verses. Even though I have high expectations of her, her talent in the power of time completely surpassed my expectations.”

“Your journey to the Time River is not much related to Kongkong’s cultivation.

Kongkong has returned to her ancestry, making her half a creature of the Time River. Her first entry into the Time River caused resonance allowing you to enter by chance. Not just you, even a pig on the side would have entered.”

“Oh, I didn’t mean you’re a pig, don’t overthink it.” Ji Zhi accidentally said what he really thought and promptly tried to remedy it.

“I’m not a vengeful person, continue.”

“Such a thing won’t happen again next time, the first time is a special case, probably the second time only Ji Kongkong alone can enter the Time River, she can’t bring others.”

Jiang Li was perplexed: “Then what did the Past and Present Sword mean when it said it saw me in the future?”

“I don’t know about that, maybe Kongkong took you in when she reached the Body Integration Realm, or maybe you found another method to enter the Time River.” Ji Zhi shrugged.

“By the way, how come I didn’t see you by the riverbank?”

Jiang Li had walked from the present to the past of more than three hundred years, and from start to end, he didn’t see Ji Zhi’s figure.

During this period, Ji Zhi had been to the Time River more than once.

Ji Zhi rolled his eyes at the ignorant Jiang Li: “I’ve told you countless times, don’t perceive the world of the Time River as a normal world. Normal logic doesn’t apply there..”
