107: Time Tree
Walking alone on the broad avenue paved with Heavenly Profound Jade, Trace-less deeply realized the terrifying foundation of this "Heavenly Gate City."
Beneath his feet, this Heavenly Profound Jade, which could trigger bloody battles among Sects in the outside world, was used here like ordinary paving stones to cover the entire street!
In the shops along the road, High Grade Spiritual Artifacts were displayed like common merchandise, and the light of the Magic Treasures leaking from the display windows intertwined into a net, emitting heart-palpitating ripples of energy.
The aroma of the restaurants permeating the air actually contained faint wisps of the dao rhyme of the Law; clearly, the ingredients used for cooking were rare treasures containing the Laws of Heaven and Earth!
What was even more shocking was that the layout of the entire city contained the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth!
Walking through it, Trace-less actually felt his comprehension of the Time Law growing slowly and continuously!
And on both sides of the main road leading to the primal divine stele, the lush, towering ancient trees were actually the legendary Enlightenment Divine Trees!
Every emerald leaf was naturally imprinted with profound Law textures, as if breathing in resonance with Heaven and Earth.
Trace-less found a hotel hanging a dark flag with a twisted clock pattern.
The entire building was constructed from some kind of miraculous Ore flowing with starlight, refracting dreamy and ethereal colors under the sunlight.
As soon as he stepped into the lobby, a receptionist in silver-patterned robes had sharp eyes, instantly locking onto the exclusive Reception Token of the Time-Space Divine Temple in his hand!
The receptionist's pupils shrank, and then he quickly stepped forward, bowing in a gesture that was almost humble: "My lord, the Heaven-grade Quiet Room is ready, with an embedded ten-fold Time-Enhancing Spirit Gathering Array..."
"No need, a completely quiet Cultivation room will suffice." Trace-less waved his hand to interrupt.
At this moment, what he needed was a place for closed-door Cultivation that completely isolated external interference.
Following the receptionist through a deep corridor, the ancient paintings hanging on the walls on both sides actually flowed with tangible Time-Space Laws!
Each one looked like a miniature Time-Space trap, containing profound mysteries that could make one sink into them.
Stepping into the Cultivation room, the heavy stone door closed silently behind him.
Trace-less pointed his fingertips repeatedly, and three layers of Restriction light curtains flashing with ancient runes rose instantly, completely isolating the inside from the outside, as if even the flow of time had solidified.
Three bottles of Spirit Refining Pill were poured out, and thirty-six dragon-eye-sized pills with pill patterns moving like living creatures rolled onto the jade plate.
The majestic Soul Power emitted made the divine sense tree in his Sea of Consciousness tremble violently!
Trace-less did not rush to swallow them; instead, with a thought, he summoned his unique data panel:
【 Name: Trace-less (Lin Yuan Clone) 】
【 Realm: Spirit Refining Realm Seventh Heaven 】
【 divine sense tree: Level 70 (7000 Feathers) 】
【 Time Origin Law: 3% (9000 Feathers) 】
【 Comprehensive combat power: 16000 Feathers 】
Previously, when Lin Yuan's main body refined the World Origin Embryo to create the Clone, Trace-less inherited all of Lin Yuan's main body's talents and cultivation except for the Primordial Purple Qi, and even left a trace of Primordial Purple Qi equivalent to one-hundred-thousandth of the main body for the Trace-less Clone, so Trace-less could also view his own data panel; this was the ability bestowed upon him by the Primordial Purple Qi.
"Three bottles should be enough..." Trace-less took a deep breath and put the first pill into his mouth.
The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth, no longer as gentle as a candy, but transformed into a violent, dam-breaking torrent of Soul Power, rushing into the Sea of Consciousness!
The divine sense tree let out an unbearable moan, its trunk frantically growing taller, its branches growing wildly, and on the newborn leaves, silver-white Time Law patterns were clearly visible, shining brilliantly.
When the majestic medicinal power of the thirtieth pill was completely absorbed—
Hum!
In the Sea of Consciousness, the 100-million-meter-tall divine sense tree bloomed with nine-colored divine glow!
At the top of the trunk, a single translucent leaf, seemingly condensed from solidified time, swayed gently, causing the phantom of the surrounding River of Time to fluctuate along with it!
This was the sign of the Spirit Refining Realm Great Perfection, about to break through the Realm and condense a Dharma Idol!
Crack!
Cracks spread across the trunk of the divine sense tree, and the Dharma Idol was about to be born!
A sudden change occurred!
That single translucent leaf suddenly erupted with an extremely dense light of Time Origin!
Silver radiance swept across the entire divine sense tree like a tide, and profound translucent dao patterns of the same Origin as the Time Origin appeared on the surface of the tree instantly!
The data panel flickered and distorted frantically:
【 divine sense tree evolving... 】
【 Deep resonance with Time Origin Law detected! 】
【 Morphological mutation: Time divine sense tree (Elementary) 】
"Argh—!" Trace-less groaned, his Soul feeling as if it were being torn apart by an invisible giant hand!
Half remained in the physical body of the present world, while the other half was forcibly dragged into the endless Time fault!
The past, the future, annihilated history, possible tributaries... Endless Time fragments and Origin information impacted his consciousness like a destructive torrent!
Just as his Soul was about to be lost, and his consciousness was about to be assimilated by time and completely dissipated—
Hum!
Deep within the Chaos, the vast Soul of Lin Yuan's main body, which wielded four Origin Laws and had been tempered by Laws, suddenly sensed it!
A will originating from the Origin, irresistible, descended along the connection of that trace of Primordial Purple Qi!
It forcibly dragged Trace-less's scattered Soul consciousness back to reality from the River of Time!
"Hoo... hoo..." Trace-less was covered in cold sweat, fear soaking his whole body like ice water.
If not for the main body's incomparably powerful Soul, and if not for the protection of that trace of Primordial Purple Qi, just that moment ago, his Clone would have completely turned into a speck of dust in the River of Time!
Calming his mind, he looked inward at his Sea of Consciousness.
The scene before him made his breath hitch: the 100-million-meter-tall giant tree had disappeared without a trace, replaced by a strange sapling only a little over a meter tall, translucent throughout.
The branches were slender but tough, and the leaves were sparse, but each one was like a solidified Time fragment, flowing with pure silver-white halo, emitting the most original power of Time.
The data panel was brand new:
【 Time divine sense tree: Elementary 】
【 Basic divine sense combat power: 30000 Feathers 】
【 Time Origin Law control degree: 9% (27000 Feathers) 】
【 Time Origin Law affinity: +1000% 】
Comprehensive combat power: 57000 Feathers!
Previously, a 19,000-Feather Spirit Refining Realm Martial Artist was basically one-in-an-eon.
Even his own main body, when at the Spirit Refining Realm Perfection, besides the 10,000-Feather divine sense strength, excluding the bonuses of divine sense techniques and the chaos heavenly extreme sword, only had 100-Feather dao body and 112.95 various Law bonuses; the Clone only lacked divine sense techniques!
This was historically unique in the entire Taichu Divine Continent!
But now... 57,000 Feathers?!
Spirit Refining Realm? This was simply an existence that subverted cognition and transcended imagination!
In the long history of the entire Taichu Divine Continent, had there ever been such a monster?
A trace of worry flashed by: if such talent were exposed, would it bring about a monstrous storm?
But immediately, Wang Minghui's words and his own understanding of the pattern of the Taichu Divine Continent floated in his mind—the Time-Space Divine Temple, the head of the top ten Supreme Divine Temples!
Its prestige was so great that it was enough to make the ten thousand Domains bow their heads!
Divine Temple Disciples outside were always objects that various forces tried their best to befriend, not trouble to provoke.
The higher the talent, the more terrifying the resources the Time-Space Divine Temple would invest!
This was not a disaster, but the greatest amulet and ladder to the heavens.
Three days later, in front of the primal divine stele.
Early in the morning, Wang Minghui personally led Trace-less to the foot of the divine stele.
They were still a hundred zhang away from the test entrance, and the clamorous human voices were already rushing toward them:
"Have you heard? A peerless Prodigy appeared in the Burning Heaven Continent yesterday!"
"Bone age 600, Spirit Refining Realm Peak! Wielding the Metal Origin Law! Total score on the divine stele—21 million!"
"Hiss... Truly remarkable! I wonder what kind of divine stele blessing was obtained? But compared to those real monsters in the core area of the Taichu Divine Continent, I'm afraid it's still lacking..."
Amidst the discussions, Trace-less walked silently to the end of the line.
In an instant, countless surprised, suspicious, and scrutinizing gazes focused on him!
Spirit Refining Realm?
Coming to challenge the primal divine stele? This was simply an ancient oddity!
What was even more eye-catching was that around this green-robed youth, there was actually a lingering, profound Time dao rhyme at all times!
As his sleeves fluttered without wind, faint phantoms of the River of Time flowed and flickered along with them!
"Time Law... actually able to touch it while in the Spirit Refining Realm?" An old man with white hair and profound aura said in a low voice to his companion, his turbid old eyes full of disbelief, "This is a Realm that can only be touched in the Myriad Laws Realm..."
"Shh! Be careful! Watching his demeanor... he must be a core true Disciple of some Supreme Divine Temple!" The companion's voice carried awe, and he subconsciously took half a step back.
Trace-less's expression was calm, ignoring the surrounding gazes, but a ripple arose in his heart: if these people knew that the youth who "touched the Time Law" in their eyes was wielding the Time Origin Law, which was thousands of times more profound and mysterious than the Time Law... I wonder if that white-haired old man's Dao Heart could still remain stable...
