Chapter 765
Just as the little blue lamp decided to maintain its silence, Qin Yu engaged with it on his own initiative. “Little Blue, do you have any method that will help me grasp the power of time?”
Hohoho, if I had such an ability, I would already rule the myriad heavens and would have become the lord of the great wilderness. Why would I need to hide with such difficulty?
Moreover, what in the world was Little Blue!?
“No!”
It was a clean and clear rejection.
Qin Yu was disappointed. “I thought you were omnipotent. So there are also things you cannot do.”
The little blue lamp continued to laugh. This is simply nonsense. There are many things I cannot do!
“Do you really have no means?” Qin Yu continued to ask.
The little blue lamp was about to pour a bucket of cold water on Qin Yu’s head and douse his unrealistic ideas, but a sudden thought came to mind. “Mm…in truth there isn’t no chance.”
Qin Yu’s eyes brightened. “Little Blue, tell me quickly!”
The little blue lamp agitatedly said, “Stop calling me Little Blue!”
“Alright Little Blue, hurry and tell me, stop wasting time!”
“I said not to call me…”
“I understand Little Blue!”
The little blue lamp was silent for a time. Then, its voice was especially faint as it said, “Just now, you traded for a Myriad Enlightenment Fruit from the Time Altar. Eat it and try meditating again. If your luck is good, you might have some harvests.”
Qin Yu took out the Myriad Enlightenment Fruit, “Just eat it like this?”
“That’s right.”
“Thank you Little Blue!”
The little blue lamp watched as Qin Yu ate the fruit, including the pit, in three bites. He closed his eyes and continued to try to perceive something.
The little blue lamp silently sneered. The Myriad Enlightenment Fruit could at best be considered a minor top quality cultivation support spirit fruit. After eating it and meditating, one’s ability to perceive concepts would increase a little for a period of time.
But to depend on the Myriad Enlightenment Fruit to perceive the power of time? There were just three words for that – Ha ha ha!
If it really was useful, the Myriad Enlightenment Fruits would have already been cleaned out of existence by the great figures in the endless heavens and myriad worlds.
Of course, this didn’t mean there was no chance. After all, since the power of time existed, that meant there were corresponding Time Laws.
As long as one wholeheartedly tried to perceive it, there was eventually a chance they could touch it…of course, as the little blue lamp said, this chance needed a sufficient amount of luck. As for how much luck was needed? Well, that would be a pile of luck as high as the heavens, and then multiplied a few thousand times.
The little blue lamp quietly waited for Qin Yu’s disappointed expression. It felt that its partner needed to experience some setbacks in order to reverse this twisted personality of his.
The little blue lamp deeply sensed the sacrificed Star Cutting Grass leaf. It seems that the plans it set in place were about to be triggered soon.
If things went smoothly, it should be able to accomplish its goal and fuse with the Time Altar’s strength. This would be greatly beneficial to it.
At the very least, the power of this space would allow its world that had slowed down in its speed of growth to accelerate once more. It was just that the traces left behind would need to be thoroughly cleaned up. Otherwise, if the other party were to catch up to it, the consequences would be dire.
After an unknown period of time, some fluctuations appeared. The little blue lamp’s thoughts shook as if it had been shocked by electricity.
Huh? What? Huh?
Am I dreaming here?
Yes, I must be dreaming!
Within the Time Mystic Realm, Qin Yu was quietly sitting down cross-legged. But if one looked carefully, they would notice small fluctuations in an extremely limited space around him. This was his aura causing the surrounding space to change. Rather, there were some changes in the flow of time around him.
With the little blue lamp’s field of vision, it naturally understood what this meant. But even after staring on in shock for a long time, it still didn’t dare to believe it.
What sort of joke was this?
This was different from the Five Element Laws of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. This was the supreme power of time. With a thought, one could transform the passing of years and crush the endless heavens and myriad worlds beneath their feet!
But only the big brothers of big brothers, the peaks of peaks, had the qualifications to touch such a level of strength.
Even the little blue lamp, if not for reasons of its status and identity, also wouldn’t have been able to control the power of time in its current incomplete and severely weakened state.
But now, it could clearly feel the factors that influenced time coming from Qin Yu’s body.
This didn’t make any sense and was completely illogical!
Could it be that while it was in a deep slumber for all these years, a new effect had been cultivated in the Myriad Enlightenment Fruits? But it wasn’t blind. The Myriad Enlightenment Fruit that Qin Yu ate was clearly the most common and low-level of its kind. Even though its memories were still incomplete, it still recalled that long ago, it would eat much more precious variations of this fruit as daytime snacks.
The little blue lamp took a deep breath and forced itself to calm down. It had an ability to detach itself from any situation and move into a completely analytical and logical state with just a thought – this was a type of inborn talent that worked well in critical moments.
Hum –
The space in front of Qin Yu suddenly collapsed and a great sun appeared, wrapped in pitch black nothingness. Then, a figure became visible. It was blurry and faint, unable to be seen clearly.
After looking on for several breaths of time, the figure within the great sun lifted a hand and aimed it between Qin Yu’s eyebrows.
The finger pierced through the aura covering the great sun. A slender fingertip was exposed, one that glowed with a jade-like luster as it gently fell between Qin Yu’s eyebrows.
The figure’s eyebrows furrowed a little as if sensing something. But it soon composed itself.
After a long time, the fingertip drew back into the shadow of the sun. A low voice rang out, “It really is true. Just what is the reason?”
Calm and indifferent, without any fluctuation of emotion. After a brief silence, the figure within the great sun gently waved its hand. The sun phantom suddenly expanded, covering Qin Yu within.
…
A forest composed of green trees, echoing with the remnants of time.
This was a low mountain, no more than several hundred meters across and 70-80 meters high. If it weren’t for the fact that an Ancestral Shrine was built on the summit, one could easily find several thousand similar low mountains in the surrounding region.
But with this Ancestral Shrine here, even though this was nothing but an ordinary mountain among countless others, it now became unusual and extraordinary, with the qualifications to look down at all others.
This was because the tablets in the Ancestral Hall were black with golden characters, and the edges wrapped in exquisite textures. Black was for the endless abyss, gold was for the noble celestial crown, and the exquisite textures were the manifestation of the rules.
Dang –
Dang –
In front of the Ancestral Shrine, there was a brass bell tied up to a bent construction of wood. The bell cast a shallow shadow on the ground.
At this moment, it rang out. But, the brass bell tied to the wood construct didn’t move at all. Rather, what shook and trembled was the shadow that was cast on the ground.
Perhaps this was because it felt that this information wasn’t important enough to make it rock its weary body around. So instead, it had its shadow ring out in its place.
Beneath the mountain there was a courtyard. The doors, fence, and even the lone house inside were all made from woven bamboo.
As the ringing spread out, the doors opened from within. A man wearing loose white robes walked out. Taking a quick glance at him, he looked to be around 30 years of age. On second glance, he appeared 50. And on a third glance, one would think he looked like a lovable yet dignified old Elder.
In short, this was a man whose age was a mystery.
Looking up at the mountain top that was shrouded behind trees, the man happily smiled. He stepped forward, following the stone steps that had been hewn on the mountainside. It was unknown how many people had traversed these stone steps, but their surface was as smooth as glass, as if a layer of liquid had been poured on them.
Standing in front of the Ancestral Shrine, the man lifted his hand and the ringing vanished. The gently rocking bell shadow also calmed down. He couldn’t help but shake his head, “You really grow increasingly lazy. If this continues, what use are you?”
The brass bell remained silent. Even though it didn’t say a word, it vividly displayed an ‘arrogant and proud’ character, not caring about anything else. The man hopelessly shook his head. But, he also knew of its temper. He didn’t delay any further and bowed towards the entrance of the Ancestral Shrine.
Following this, he lifted a hand, closed his eyes, and accepted the information coming from the Ancestral Shrine. He opened his eyes, a look of pleasant surprise on his face, “The power of time!”
