God Emperor

Su Qingling and Bu Ji’s eyes contained a surprised look. After staring at Zhang Ruochen for a long while, they finally laughed.

“The Spatial Way is one of the Ancient Ways,” Bu Ji said. “How can it be so easy to comprehend? Plus, even if you comprehend the spatial rules, if you don’t activate the Time and Space Martial Deity Print, then you won’t reach a very high level in space. At most, it will only help your own cultivation.”

One could only become a true space manipulator by activating the Time and Space Martial Deity Print and comprehending the spatial rules.

There were two other situations.

The first was activating the Time and Space Martial Deity Print but not comprehending spatial rules in the Ninth Change of the Fish-Dragon Realm, thus not melding the spatial rules into the saint soul.

The second was not activating the Time and Space Martial Deity Print but comprehending spatial rules in the Ninth Change and melding them into the saint soul.

Most spatial cultivators had these two situations. They could only be known as Space Cultivators.

“There are very few Space Cultivators,” Su Qingling said. “It’s very impressive for a major world to have one or two. Even the worlds who rank high in the Saints Merits Rank have very few Space Cultivators. As for Space manipulators, you can count them on your fingers. Each one’s appearance causes a commotion.”

“Most of the Space Cultivators in the universe go study and cultivate in the Space Divine Pavilion. That’s also a force independent from the major worlds.”

“Space Divine Pavilion.”

Zhang Ruochen recited it, committing it to memory. Then he asked, “What about cultivators of the Time Way?”

Su Qingling chuckled. “They’re even rarer than spatial cultivators. It’s harder as well. They mostly study in the Time Divine Pavilion.”

“Is it possible for a cultivator to control time and space simultaneously?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Su Qingling and Bu Ji exchanged glances. They both shook their heads.

“It’s practically impossible to grasp two Ancient Ways at once,” Bu Ji said. “Perhaps those cultivators exist, but we can’t find them now.”

Su Qingling nodded her pretty head. “You have to know that any Space or Time Cultivator with some achievements have high statuses in Heaven World. They’re equal to Supreme Saints. The more powerful Space and Time Controllers can even be invited by gods to be their guests.”

Bu Ji nodded fiercely. “I have a spatial pouch. I exchanged it from a Half-Saint Space Cultivator with large amounts of resources. There were also many Saints other than me who went with a lot of treasures to exchange for spatial pouches. But the man only chose to meet with a few. Many Saints were barred from entering.”

“Even a Half-Saint is so arrogant?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“Yes, exactly that arrogant.”

“Three hundred years ago,” Su Qingling said. “My grandfather went to meet a Time Cultivator. He wanted to invite the man to the Tianling Saint Territory and put up a time formation. Unfortunately, the man wouldn’t even meet Grandfather. It’s evident that a Time Cultivator is even more arrogant than a Space Cultivator.”

“Put up a time formation for what?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“For cultivation, of course. You know, you can cultivate in a time formation for two months while only one month passes in the outside world. It’s like your cultivation speed has doubled. Some powerful Time Cultivators can even make the time in formations be three, four times faster or even more.”

Su Qingling’s gaze grew into one of yearning. She was filled with curiosity about the mysterious Time Cultivators.

If Supreme Saint Jiuling had been able to invite that Time Cultivator 300 years ago and set up a time formation in Tianling Saint Territory, then her cultivation would probably be at the Saint King Realm now. She wouldn’t be stuck at the peak of the True Saint Realm.

Zhang Ruochen had a slight understanding of the Heaven World’s Time and Space Cultivators now. He also understood one thing: perhaps no one in the Heaven World could create time-space treasures.

After all, only Saint Monk Xumi had been able to grasp both time and space and cultivate them to extremely high levels.

Even in the Heaven World, it was probably difficult to produce another figure as powerful as Saint Monk Xumi. Otherwise, that person would’ve already shocked the thousand fields. How could Su Qingling and Bu Ji not know?

The value of the few time-space treasures in Kunlun’s Field also seemed shocking.

The Tianlun Mark especially had a time ratio of 1:30.

Before, Chi Yao hadn’t become a god and could only have the nine Heirs cultivate in the Tianlun Mark. Now, she could probably send a great amount of cultivators into the Tianlun Mark.

Zhang Ruochen had to think of a way to speed up his cultivation as well.

Time formation…

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes brightened. He prepared to flip through the Time and Space Secret Guide after returning. There should probably be a way to create time formations.

Bu Ji handed over the bottle filled with the Ning True Saint Dew. Smiling, he said, “I keep my word. This bottle of Ning True Saint Dew is now all yours.”

Zhang Ruochen accepted the jade bottle and nodded. Then he prepared to leave the Red Dragon Saint Territory.

Just then, Supreme Saint Manjian’s voice sounded in his mind. “Come to the Red Dragon Saint Palace to see me.”

Su Qingling and Bu Ji clearly received the same message. The three of them hurried toward the palace at the same time and saw Supreme Saints Manjian and Jiuling.

“Greetings, Supreme Saints.”

The three saluted and bowed to the two saintly images before them at the same time.

“Earlier, I received a divine message from Moon Goddess,” Supreme Saint Manjian said. “Tomorrow, the Thousand Saint Conference will be held in the Moon Goddess Mountain to discuss the survival of Guanghan Field.”

Hearing this, Su Qingling and Bu Ji both became extremely excited. They said at practically the same time, “So we’re going to be able to see Moon Goddess?”

Supreme Saint Jiuling scoffed. “The Moon Goddess is high and mighty. You can’t see her just because you want to. The conference tomorrow will be hosted by Elder Wu, Emperor Jimie, and I. As for whether the Moon Goddess will appear or not, that is still unknown.”

Then Supreme Saint Jiuling continued, “They’ll probably choose an Heir and priest from among the Saints at the conference. You three should prepare and try to get one of the spots.”

Su Qingling was a bit shocked. “Aren’t Supreme Saints the only ones qualified to be Priests? How come they will choose one among Saints?”

Supreme Saint Jiuling had a berating expression. “This is a special situation. Didn’t I say it before? This pertains to the survival of Guanghan Field.”

Su Qingling and Bu Ji’s expressions grew solemn.

Zhang Ruochen grew thoughtful. Then he asked, “Excuse me, Supreme Saints, what exactly has happened?”

“I can’t explain in a few words,” Supreme Saint Jiuling said. “You’ll understand tomorrow at the conference.”

“Since you’re going to the Moon Goddess Mountain tomorrow, Zhang Ruochen,” Supreme Saint Manjian said, “don’t return to Mount Yuanxu Sacred Land. Stay in the Red Dragon Saint Territory and rest. If you have time, you can talk to Bu Ji and Su Qingling about the Saintly Way and Sword Way. You’re all the hope of the Guanghan Field.”

“So you’re name is Zhang Ruochen.”

Su Qingling smiled at Zhang Ruochen. Then she added, “If you want to know the reason why the Moon Goddess is holding the Thousand Saint Conference, I can tell you. Do you want to know?”

“I’ll know tomorrow, so whether you tell me or not, it’s not important.”

With that, Zhang Ruochen bowed to the two Supreme Saints again and walked out of Red Dragon Saint Palace.

Su Qingling clenched her fists and ground her teeth. She was so angry that her cheeks puffed up. “Does he have to be so inconsiderate? He’s as cold as a block of ice.”

“He is indeed a strange man. He doesn’t seem to be interested in anything other than cultivation.” Bu Ji shook his head, feeling like he couldn’t understand Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen went inside a cultivation residence of the Red Dragon Saint Palace. He started working on refining the Ning True Saint Dew. He raced against time, just wishing he could speed up his cultivation a bit.

He spent the entire night to refine more than 30 drops of Ning True Saint Dew. He could clearly feel that his cultivation had improved a bit.

I’ve only cultivated for a night and I already have such obvious effects. The Ning True Saint Dew is indeed a powerful treasure.

While testing the Rules of Saintly Way, Zhang Ruochen exercised his arm.

After combining the Rules of Saintly Way with his Holy Qi, he sent a palm forward. The power unleashed from his palm had actually gotten stronger.

“Come group outside the Red Dragon Saint Palace.”

Supreme Saint Manjian’s voice traveled into Zhang Ruochen’s mind.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t continue to cultivate. He walked toward the Red Dragon Saint Palace.

Before he reached it, he saw beams of Saintly Way ripples rush into the sky. Each one was aggressive. Clearly, there were no weak figures.

When Zhang Ruochen arrived, there were already more than 100 Saints gathered outside the palace. They were all the best of the best among the Red Dragon Saint Territory cultivators.

Clearly, there were requirements for cultivation to join the Thousand Saint Conference.

Regular Saints weren’t even qualified.

A fragrant breeze blew past. Then a beautiful figure appeared before Zhang Ruochen. A chiming laugh sounded. “It’s only been one night and your cultivation has already improved again. You really are a cultivation fanatic.”

Su Qingling’s figure was as delicate as a crescent moon. The arc of her chest was extremely shocking. It sketched a silhouette that invited people to fantasize.

Standing outside the Red Dragon Saint Palace, Su Qingling was the absolute star. Everyone’s eyes turned to stare at her curvaceous body.

However, the Saints of Guanghan Field all knew that Su Qingling was very powerful. Plus, she had Supreme Saint Jiuling as her support, so no one got any inappropriate ideas about her.

However, they were all curious about one thing. It was rumored that Su Qingling had very high standards and was very arrogant. Not many Saints of Guanghan Field could meet her eye. How come she was so interested in a Heaven Pass Saint?
