Chapter 763: Make it Through
However, that crystal seemed to have noticed the danger, and it burst out with an extremely strong aura! Finally, it slowly stopped about ten steps away from the water curtain.
But this time, it didn’t try to s.n.a.t.c.h Chu Liuyue’s force anymore.
Chu Liuyue tried again and realized that she couldn’t make it go forward anymore, so she decisively gave up.
She stared at that crystal for a while and lightly laughed. “I hate people stealing my things.”
As if in fear, that crystal moved another step back!
Shangguan Jing was confused. Wh-what’s going on? It’s different from what I expected! The Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed is inside the crystal, yet it became a coward in front of Chu Liuyue?!
Even though the Tianling Dynasty’s founder had seen the unreasonable behavior of Chu Liuyue facing the lightning, he still felt that this scene was too impactful and couldn’t digest it.
Seriously speaking, even though this item pulled Chu Liuyue down, she had already stolen its force at this point. After all, the force that Chu Liuyue had intercepted was all gathered by this Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed.
However, Chu Liuyue was acting very righteously as if the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed really took advantage of her!
Shangguan Jing instantly felt his head ache. I stayed in the Tianling G.o.d Realm for a thousand years, yet I don’t know how the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed became so… cowardly. Did this world really change?
The ancestor looked at the crystal with a complicated gaze, and he couldn’t accept it. He could even clearly hear something cras.h.i.+ng in his heart.
Ever since he stuck with Chu Liuyue, this kind of thing kept happening. Many things in the world became unimaginable, but the key was that Chu Liuyue seemed to have gotten used to everything and didn’t realize how harsh she was!
In this entire mainland, there probably aren’t many people who dare to threaten the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed in this manner… The Tianling Dynasty’s ancestor looked at the scene ahead and fell into deep thought. The Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed is naturally not scared of a mere stage-five warrior. The key should be that… water curtain later!
The water curtain wasn’t big—it was the height of a person. As it coincidentally presented itself in front of Chu Liuyue, it separated her and the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed.
The Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed seemed to be terrified of this water curtain and didn’t dare to go near it. Because of this, it didn’t even care that it had to give up on all the force that Chu Liuyue had absorbed!
After a temporary silence, the crystal started to move again. But this time, it was much more hidden than before.
The surrounding s.p.a.ce gradually started to become sticky.
Chu Liuyue squinted her eyes.
The ancestor seemed to have suddenly thought of something as he gasped in shock.
“Ancestor? What’s the matter?” asked Chu Liuyue curiously.
Shangguan Jing widened his eyes, and shock could still be seen in them. “It… It controlled this s.p.a.ce! Have you noticed that this s.p.a.ce seems different from before?”
Chu Liuyue nodded. “Force seems to be moving slower.”
The ancestor paused for a moment and then said with much difficulty, “That’s because… the time flow here has decelerated!”
Chu Liuyue was stunned; she knew what this meant. Legend has it that the mighty figures that broke through as stage-nine warriors can create a G.o.d Realm that belongs to themselves and that they can control everything within that G.o.d Realm at will—including the pa.s.sing of time. The stronger the person is, the more shocking their control in this aspect.
There are many advantages to slowing down the time flow. For example, cultivators can enter the s.p.a.ce to cultivate and can also grow some precious herbs. If a day in the outside world is equivalent to ten days in the G.o.d Realm, then it’s akin to increasing the speed of cultivation by ten times. Herbs that need a hundred years to grow can be harvested in ten years.
Anyway, there are countless advantages. However, can’t this only be done by the rumored top elites? My ancestor—who is also very strong—only left behind a broken Tianling G.o.d Realm. He couldn’t even do this. And this Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed…
“Rumors have it that the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed can indeed do this.” Shangguan Jing knitted his brows and nodded.
Chu Liuyue then realized that the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed seemed stronger than she had expected.
“I think it wants to trap you in here.”
The decelerated time flow would be very hard to endure. If Chu Liuyue couldn’t make it through, then it would give the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed a chance. By that time…
“It feels great!” said Chu Liuyue elatedly as her eyes lit up.
“What?” The Tianling Dynasty’s ancestor was confused. “A-aren’t you afraid that it will trap you here forever?”
There is no night or day in this place, and she is alone. Even if she isn’t afraid, won’t she be lonely after a long time has pa.s.sed? One has to know that people would definitely be driven crazy if they stayed in this kind of environment for an extended period of time. Even if it’s me here, it would be hard to make it through. Who knows when we can exit?
Chu Liuyue blinked, smiled, and said, “What’s there to be worried about? I feel that we can take this chance to properly cultivate! Do you know how much slower time flows here compared to the outside world?”
Shangguan Jing hesitated for a moment before saying, “One day outside… is probably about a month here. But you can’t see the sun or moon here, so it’s very hard to know how much time has pa.s.sed.”
Chu Liuyue smiled and took out an hourgla.s.s from the Cosmic Ring. “This isn’t a problem. This hourgla.s.s takes an entire day as a measure of time. After it’s filled, it will turn around automatically. However, I’m afraid I have to trouble you to help me pay attention to this.”
When she entered cultivation mode, she had no concept of time. With her ancestor’s help, it would be much more convenient.
The ancestor grunted. “You do have all sorts of things with you, even this.”
Chu Liuyue coughed.
Actually, she didn’t prepare this herself. The Cosmic Ring that Rong Xiu gave her had plenty of things in it.
When she was bored, she did check through it before. Other than money and all sorts of treasures, there were all sorts of small trinkets inside—including this hourgla.s.s.
She didn’t expect to use it at this point.
“Since you’ve already planned everything, I won’t say anything further. Just like you said, this is indeed a rare opportunity. If you can leave this place in the end, nothing is a problem.”
Chu Liuyue nodded. “Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”
Even though her breakthrough speed was already considered rapid compared to an average person or even most cultivators, it still wasn’t enough! The enemies she had to face were the most powerful characters in the Tianling Dynasty, who could currently cover the entire sky.
Even if she had quite a few trump cards, she was still lacking when compared to them. Now that she could take this chance to increase her cultivation speed, she was naturally elated.
As for Ancestor worrying whether I can make it through… I’ve already experienced so much pain and torture. What can this count for? Chu Liuyue closed her eyes and placed her hands on her knees with her palms facing upward.
The water curtain moved slightly.
Kacha!
A broken piece suddenly dropped down from the crystal!
