Chapter 17 - The Law of Time

After going up to the private room on the second floor, Lin Suxin activated the defensive magic array as usual, and then unfolded the ink painting in front of everyone.

The seven people sat in a semicircle, and the ink wash painting was in front of them.

Li Fei could not help but ask, "Suxin, I was looking at this painting downstairs and felt the law of time. Where did you get this?"

Before Lin Suxin could speak, another female mage exclaimed, "Law of time? Li Fei, are you serious?"

She only felt that the painting contained laws. As for what kind, she could not tell.

The others were also shocked.

Time and space were one of the two most powerful laws. Only existences like the archmagister could comprehend them. Now, it was actually drawn by someone, allowing intermediate and advanced mages like them to comprehend it. What kind of power was this?

"Li Fei, you can't have sensed wrongly, right? Some laws also create the illusion of time."

"That's right. We haven't reached the level of comprehending laws yet, so it might be a mistake."

Li Fei shook his head stubbornly. "I know what you guys are talking about, but what's on this painting is really the law of time. As for which one, it's hard to say. It's very likely that it's time reversal."

"The injury just now was caused by the blood in my chest returning to its previous position, causing the blood to accumulate and get injured."

Lin Suxin looked at Li Fei in surprise. She did not expect that the person with the highest talent was actually him.

Seeing that everyone still wanted to argue, she opened her mouth and said, "What Li Fei said is true."

"This ink painting contains the law of time -- time reversal."

"I got it from a senior. After he gave it to me, he used it to solve the incident in the Magical Beast Forest. After that, he told me that I could gather my friends to comprehend it together. Moreover, I could bring two of them to him for guidance."

"That senior has a very good personality. This painting was personally drawn by the senior. If everyone can comprehend something from the painting, you can call him your teacher."

"Everyone will have the opportunity to receive Senior Ye's guidance."

The other six people's expressions changed. They were shocked and in disbelief.

Although Li Fei had already expected it, he was still very excited when he heard Lin Suxin say it.

Using just a painting to reveal the law of time, that senior must be a legendary master. A master like him would not lie to them.

Lin Suxin continued, "Previously, I was meditating alone for a period, but I did not feel it deeply. Senior said that if everyone meditated together, our progress would be faster."

"Let's begin now. I hope that everyone will be able to gain something."

Although Li Fei still wanted to ask some questions, he did not open his mouth.

The seven of them sat together. Time passed by them, but at certain times, time quietly flowed back again. They might not have noticed it when they were alone, but when there were more people, it was obvious.

Other than Li Fei, the other girl named Bai Xing had the deepest comprehension.

She did not feel time flowing back, but instead, she felt the time was speeding up.

The seven of them stayed in the room on the second floor for three hours until their mental state was exhausted. Only then did the gathering end.

After Lin Suxin told them the location and time of the next gathering, she specifically told Li Fei and Bai Xing.

She would bring them with her when she went to Senior Ye's study room next time.

After they left, Lin Suxin's father appeared in the room with a frown on his face.

"That girl has been acting so mysterious lately. What is she doing?"

"Well, are there fluctuations of laws here?"

Lin Pingzhi was about to leave when he sensed the residual laws fluctuations in the air. He suddenly turned around and looked at the place where the painting was hanging and frowned.

As the head of the Lin family, it was very difficult for him to encounter items that contained laws fluctuations. Where did his daughter get it?

Could she have been seduced by the black mage?

It was not impossible for the black mage to get something that contained laws fluctuations from the Abyss. Could it be that the group of black rats wanted to use his daughter against the Lin Family?

At this moment, Lin Pingzhi thought of many things. His eyes flickered and he finally made up his mind. He had to secretly follow her for a period to see who his daughter was in contact with.

If she really had a relationship with the black mage, he would have to deal with it in advance.

After attending the gathering, Lin Suxin returned home to continue comprehending the painting.

Although her major was the water element, which had nothing to do with the law of time, she had Senior Ye's guidance. How could she give up?

Moreover, the law of time contained many characteristics. It could be added to magic and even buffed one's own body.

Just like time reversal enveloping one's own body, if one were to go back a hundred years, wouldn't that be some form of prolonging one's life?

It would speed up the enemy's own time by a hundred years, allowing them to die of old age on the spot.

One could even stop time to trap the enemies and defeat them.

The law of time could not only affect people but also objects. It was different from the seven elemental magic elements. The laws were more superior. The law of time was equal to the law of space. Only those who had the talent could learn it. For those who couldn't feel the law of time at all, they were not able to learn it.

Moreover, for mages below the level of archmagister, it was very difficult for them to feel the passage of time. Now that they had a channel to understand it, they naturally could not let it go easily.

Lin Suxin's mind was full of the law of time. When she returned home, she locked herself in her room. Even during the dinner time, she asked the butler to send meal to her room. She would not even him her open the door. This kind of abnormal behavior made Lin Pingzhi even more determined on his guess.

After staying at home for two days, she attended a gathering in the Mage Pavilion and learned the law of time with Li Fei and the others.

On the third day, Lin Suxin took Li Fei and Bai Xing to the Ancient Road Bookstore.

When they set off, Lin Pingzhi appeared in a flash and followed behind them quietly.

On the way, Bai Xing couldn't help but ask, "Suxin, what's the name of that senior? Can I dress like this? Should I change into a new set of clothes?"

She was wearing a one-piece dress today, which accentuated her good figure. Coupled with the magical lipstick she put on when she went out, she looked pure and innocent.

Lin Suxin waved her hand speechlessly. "As long as you don't go naked, it's fine."

"As a master, Senior Ye has lived for god knows how long. He has seen everything. Just stay calm and don't do anything bad."

"Just think of it as going to the bookstore to read and ask senior some questions."

Bai Xing was still a bit nervous. After hearing this, he gradually calmed down.

Li Fei was silent. He remembered what Lin Suxin had said.

The three didn't use magic to speed up. When they arrived at the bookstore, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

The words "Ancient Road Bookstore" were shining under the sun.

Lin Suxin stood outside the door and looked inside. Ye Xiu was lying on a chair reading a book. Lin Suxin grinned and shouted, "Senior Ye, I brought my friends over. They saw your ink painting and gained a lot."

Ye Xiu raised his head and looked. He smiled faintly. He casually put down the book and lightly said, "You're here. Come in first."

He didn't show it on his face, but in his heart, he was overjoyed.

They were just looking at the painting. What could they gain from it? Rich people really like to use some fancy words.

Lin Suxin brought two friends. It seemed like giving her the painting was the right step.

When he saw Bai Xing and Li Fei and saw their clothes, he was even more satisfied.

It was obvious that they weren't ordinary people. Their families must be very rich. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to wear such nice clothes.
