It's so dark that you can't even see your fingers.

Su Yu was forced to wake up by the burning pain in his chest.

He coughed, and his mouth was filled with rusty blood foam, mixed with cinders, and stuck to the base of his tongue.

Above the head is the collapsed rubble, and behind is the cold rock wall.

He remembered - the Xisan Mine collapsed.

"Survived?"

Su Yu was a little surprised.

He was inside when the collapse occurred, and the rocks that fell from the top weighed at least a thousand kilograms. It stands to reason that he should have been smashed into a pulp.

But he's not dead.

Not only was he not dead, he felt like there was something more in his body.

It was a very mysterious feeling, as if something was flowing in the veins, not blood, but colder and heavier than blood.

He closed his eyes subconsciously.

In the darkness, he "saw".

In the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness, a pale golden hourglass hung, and the fine sand in the hourglass was slowly flowing back—not downwards, but upwards.

The top of the hourglass is empty, but a thin layer of gold powder has accumulated below.

Each grain of gold powder is a scale, engraved with his life.

He somehow knew the name of this hourglass.

Time debt.

It’s a curse and a legacy.

In ancient times, the clan tried to steal the time order of heaven, but was destroyed by the catastrophe.

The Time Ancestral Qi in the blood of the Time Clan was rewritten as a curse by Heavenly Dao - the living Time Clan must pay "time tax" to Heavenly Dao.

One breath per day.

How long is a breath?

"Nei Jing" records: The Qi of Yingwei circulates for fifty weeks day and night, with two hundred and seventy breaths per week.

The total number of days and nights is 13,500 breaths, and one breath is equivalent to four breaths of an ordinary person.

One breath a day may seem insignificant, but in fact it cuts an invisible hole in the hourglass of his life.

Taxes have fixed amounts, and debts have interest.

If he takes the initiative to use the power of time, every breath he consumes will be dug out of his lifespan - it is a debt, not a tax.

Every time the power of time is actively used, no matter how much breath is consumed, a black mark will form.

The black mark is a fine, and when the nine paths are reached, a catastrophe will come. At that time, it will either deduct one's life span or take one's life.

And the breath of tax deduction from heaven is not without return.

Every time you passively deduct a breath, you will get a time mark.

The accumulation of time marks can strengthen the physical body and soul, and can also be condensed into golden marks.

The golden mark is the principal, and if it reaches nine levels, it can be used to cover one heavenly disaster.

This is the fate of the Shi Clan bloodline.

Su Yu opened his eyes.

He finally understood why he survived.

The moment when the landslide fell, it happened to be Zi Shi - the moment when the way of heaven deducted time.
