Chapter 1802 Eternal Cage
The long river of time is mighty and powerful, running through the past, present and future. It cannot be turned back and is unstoppable.
The times are chaotic, everything is affected, only time remains the same.
Buzz, time twisted, and the figure of Shilong appeared quietly.
"This is it."
Descending into the Long River of Time and looking at the nothingness before his eyes, Shilong's eyes were full of anticipation. Although this Long River of Time was an extremely dangerous place, it was not a forbidden area for him. It didn't take him much effort to find the place where the Dao Seed was about to be born.
"In a moment, the Tao Seed will reappear in the world."
Suppressing the restlessness in his heart, Shilong opened his mouth and spit out a mist of time, covering the outside of the area.
Huh, the fog spread, time was distorted here, everything turned hazy, and soon after, ripples appeared on the river of time, and a secret place that had been sealed for who knows how many years quietly emerged.
Seeing this scene, a hint of joy suddenly flashed in Shilong's eyes.
“My chance to attain enlightenment lies right here.”
His heart was beating fast, and he no longer hesitated. He stretched out his dragon claws and forcefully opened the secret realm.
At this moment, endless bronze light filled the air, and a huge ancient bronze tree appeared in front of Shilong. It had branches but no leaves, and seven branches, each pointing in one direction, with only one branch missing, like a clock face with a piece missing. It was rooted in the secret realm, standing upright, undisturbed by time, and looked quite impressive, but it was lifeless and dead, as if it had been dead for who knows how many years.
There are countless traces of lightning and fire on the huge trunk of the tree. These are left by natural disasters. Perhaps it is because of the magical power of the Immortal Tree itself that even after a long period of erosion, these traces have not disappeared at all. There is still a terrifying murderous intent lingering on it, which makes people afraid to approach it.
"The immortal tree of the past is now standing firm and will never move. What an enviable achievement. Unfortunately, this is envied by the gods. Even if you have an unlimited life span and are immortal, if you do not have enough power to protect it, it will ultimately be nothing more than an illusion."
Through the traces left by the heavenly punishment, Shilong vaguely saw the scenes of the past.
In the distant past, the Immortal Tree stood in the present, moving with the times, canopying the sky. The world changed but it did not change, eternally at ease. Eventually it aroused the jealousy of the gods, and fell under a natural calamity.
"True eternal freedom requires enough strength to bear. As a tree, you can't bear it, but I can. So I'll let you become a part of me."
Thoughts arise and disappear, greed is stirring, and Shilong breaks into the secret realm.
However, just as it was about to completely devour the Immortal Tree and seize the current Tao Seed, the Immortal Tree, which had been dead for who knows how many years, suddenly came back to life. Its seven branches grew to their fullest and hung down from the sky, intertwining with each other, forming a gigantic cage that completely enveloped the First Dragon.
"What is this?"
Realizing that something was wrong, Shilong tried to break out of the cage, but it was too late.
The cage took shape, time solidified, and its majestic dragon body froze directly in the void, like a bug frozen in a lake, unable to move. This is the eternal cage, made of the body of the immortal tree, a treasure of the universe created by chance. Time solidified inside it, not disturbed by the outside world, eternal and free. This is the power of the present.
It was at this time that a caterpillar-like monster crawled out from the trunk of the Immortal Tree. Its body was snow-white, with nine bronze rings from head to tail, its eyes were dark gold, and it exuded a trace of immortality. It was a Momentary Insect, a strange insect that would die immediately after birth. That moment was its complete life, so it was named Momentary Insect.
It is also because of this that there has never been a mature Momentary Insect in this world. However, this Momentary Insect is special. When it was still in the egg state, it fell on the Immortal Tree by chance and was nourished by the power of the Immortal Tree, which allowed it to exist forever with the Immortal Tree.
However, this is not entirely a good thing, because under the reflection of the power of the Immortal Tree, its state is permanent. If it continues to develop under normal circumstances, it will always remain in the state of an insect egg and will never be born. This situation will not change until the heavenly calamity comes.
A calamity struck, and the Immortal Tree fell, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, breaking free from the eternal shackles and being able to break out of its cocoon. Perhaps because it had accumulated too much power in the egg state, it was born extraordinary and underwent unprecedented changes.
After realizing his situation, he immediately stole the power of the Immortal Tree and parasitized inside the Immortal Tree in order to avoid disaster and conceal the sight of God. Facts have proved that he was successful.
To this day, although it has not yet achieved true immortality, it is also a genuine great master of the universe. With its racial talent and the blessing of the supreme treasure, the Eternal Cage, ordinary masters cannot do anything to it.
In fact, God's will was to kill the Immortal Tree with divine punishment and bury it in the land of the Long River of Time. In fact, the purpose was to use the power of the Long River of Time to completely erase its essence and make it disappear forever between heaven and earth. At that time, the new Tao seed would naturally be bred again.
It's a pity that there are fifty great ways and forty-nine heaven's derivatives. The world is full of variables and even the will of heaven cannot predict everything. The appearance of the instant worm quietly changed the outcome. It is also because of this that the Immortal Tree will have the chance to see the light of day again.
"Swallow you!"
The snow-white insect body squirmed, looking at the dragon that was frozen in time, and its eyes were filled with greed for an instant.
The three great cosmic Dao seeds of the past, present and future are interconnected and have a natural cohesive force. The first dragon wants to obtain the present Dao seed, and the instantaneous worm also hopes to obtain the future Dao seed. If it wants to obtain true eternity, the future Dao seed is indispensable.
However, the intentional plan can affect the future by interfering with the present. In that instant, the worm successfully plotted against the first dragon. Although the future Tao seed is mysterious, it is not invincible. Everything in the future will be affected by the present.
However, just when the insect was about to succeed, the Ancestral Dragon Pearl in the body of the First Dragon vibrated, allowing its solidified consciousness to regain freedom.
"What a good plan! I took all precautions and thought the biggest enemy might come from Longhu Mountain. I never thought that there was a bug hiding in this secret place that wanted to swallow a dragon."
"Die!"
With anger rising, Shilong ignored his own injuries and used the power of his future incarnation.
The future body that it had worked so hard to condense was annihilated in Middle-earth by Black Mountain's palm, causing heavy losses. However, this does not mean that it will never be able to use the power of the immortal level again. It's just that the restrictions are much greater and it can only last for a few breaths.
This is its means of preserving its life, and it will never be used until the last moment. But now it can't care so much. If it doesn't break the cage, it may really die at the hands of the Instant Time Worm, which is hard for it to accept.
