53: Time Fragments

Li Changsheng obtained the Azure Dragon Precious Art and discovered that not only had he successfully cultivated it, but he had also reached the Minor Achievement Realm, making its level even higher than his Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique.

This is the real powerhouse to lean on.

Hahaha.

Killing players.

Encouraging slaughter.

Dream World, I find myself starting to like you a little.

"No, I need to quickly obtain the hidden quest of the Abyss Instance, get the Ten Great Abyss Powers, and ignite more endless stars within the Cosmic Starry Sky."

After losing two matches in a row.

Li Changsheng was certain that Chu Qingdi probably wouldn't come looking for him again.

It seemed that if he wanted to kill him, he would have to wait for the next time.

Instead of camping for him, it would be better to find other Trial-takers.

He believed that Chu Qingdi wasn't the only one who had entered this place.

On Misty Peak.

Li Changsheng organized the Cultivation Techniques he had obtained.

He set the Indestructible Immortal Art aside for now.

Misty Heavenly Scripture, Misty Sword Art, Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique, Square Inch World, Azure Dragon Precious Art, Great Sun Vajra Body.

Hmm.

Every single one of them was an incredible ultimate art.

As for Critical Hit.

This power of laws did indeed have a cultivation method.

However, the cultivation method was very bizarre.

Jump in place 1,000 times.

Sprint 100 meters, 1,000 times.

Frog jumps, 1,000 times.

Throw 2,000 left and right punches.

A total of ten sets of cultivation.

No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't feel any connection to Critical Hits.

Whatever, this was a method taught by the System anyway; if it looked bizarre, that meant it was truly powerful, right?

At this moment, his Critical Hit Rank had reached V2.

He was close to reaching V3.

To get from V1 to V2 required 100 Critical Hits, while reaching V3 required 1,000.

955/1000.

Only forty-five Critical Hits away.

Perhaps it would level up in a day's time.

He almost forgot.

He hadn't done his Fishing the Heavens for today yet.

He hoped to fish up something good.

[First cast: Fishing failed, empty hook.]

"What's the meaning of this, System? How can fishing fail?"

Li Changsheng instantly lost his composure; fishing could actually fail.

The System clearly had no intention of responding to him.

He had thought there was a three-cast guarantee.

As it turned out, it was possible to cast three times in a day and get three empty hooks.

Logically, since he had just killed Chu Qingdi once, his Luck should be off the charts; how could he get an empty hook?

Refusing to believe his bad Luck, Li Changsheng chose to fish again.

[Second cast: Fishing failed, empty hook.]

In an instant.

Li Changsheng was completely stunned.

Still an empty hook.

System, you're fucking playing with me, aren't you? Believe it or not, I'll take two watermelon knives and chop you into mincemeat.

Back in the day, I, Li Changsheng...

Fine, it seems I was just a shut-in.

[Third cast: Fishing successful, obtained one Time Fragment.]

Time Fragment.

What is that?

Li Changsheng didn't quite understand.

Whatever, he'd just toss it into the storage space.

After a while, he roughly figured out what was going on.

Chu Qingdi.

As expected, these Children of Destiny aren't human.

Killing him twice actually caused him to get two empty hooks.

The next time I meet you, I'll kill you again.

Li Changsheng was fuming with rage.

If he killed him a few more times until his Luck was gone and destiny was no longer on his side, it seemed it could even backfire on him.

The key was that the rewards dropped after killing him were truly great.

Putting away the white jade fishing rod, Li Changsheng arrived in front of Ji Lingyue's wooden cabin.

Ji Lingyue's injury of time had subsided, but her body was still very weak.

"Senior Brother." Ji Lingyue was about to get up.

But she was stopped by Li Changsheng, who said, "Don't move, keep resting. How is your body recovering?"

Ji Lingyue said, "I'm still a bit weak, but the injury is no longer flaring up."

"That's good." Li Changsheng nodded. "Let me check on you again."

It was a pity he hadn't studied the Path of Immortal Medicine before.

In the Dream World, there might be no cultivation Bottlenecks, but there wasn't much extra time to Cultivate either. Previously, he had improved his Alchemy through the bond rebate.

But the Path of Immortal Medicine and Alchemy were fundamentally two different Legacies.

"Time Fragment."

Suddenly.

A thought occurred to Li Changsheng.

The treasure he had just fished up.

This Time Fragment seemed like it could heal an injury of time.

[Time Fragment, Heaven-Grade exotic treasure.]

Li Changsheng immediately took it out.

It was like a hazy crystal that instantly turned into a gray aura, flying into Ji Lingyue and merging into her body.

Boom.

In an instant.

Ji Lingyue's body floated up.

Countless gray strands of time aura constantly swirled around her.

Then they surged toward the injury of time.

Her originally weak body immediately recovered.

Most importantly, her cultivation.

From Foundation Establishment Early Stage Peak, she stepped directly into the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage, then bypassed the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage, only stopping once she reached the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

Only then was the Time Fragment completely absorbed.

"Senior Brother, my injury seems to have improved a lot."

The injury of time, originally a finger-length wound, had now become half a finger long, and there was also a gray aura preventing the injury of time from spreading further.

Li Changsheng nodded and said, "Not bad. Since your injury has recovered, then do a good job of nurturing the Myriad Poison Immortal Gu for me."

The originally excited Ji Lingyue felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her.

However, she wasn't angry, knowing her Senior Brother's personality.

Aside from being able to sleep a lot, he was also sharp-tongued.

But he was very kind-hearted.

Li Changsheng asked, "How is the cultivation of the Critical Hit method I taught you going?"

Ji Lingyue shook her head. "I haven't succeeded in cultivating it."

"However, I will work twice as hard."

Li Changsheng shook his head. "If you haven't succeeded, it only proves that you have no affinity with this method."

The Ten Great Rule Techniques.

If one truly succeeded in cultivating them.

Even mastering just one would be enough to kill enemies of a higher level.

Just imagine.

What a scene it would be if every strike was a Critical Hit.

Returning to Misty Peak.

Li Changsheng continued his life of reading.

Night fell.

He returned to the Dream World once again.

He just didn't know if Chu Qingdi had entered the Dream World.

Li Changsheng estimated that he wouldn't miss out on such a Cultivation Holy Land.

He had probably just hidden himself.

And so.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Li Changsheng hadn't been idle.

Over this month, his Rank had risen to 93, and except for the Abyssal Lord of Space, he had killed all the other Lords. Furthermore, he had originally planned to kill the Abyssal Lord of Space last to obtain the Abyssal Power of Space.

But he unexpectedly discovered.

That he didn't need to kill the Abyssal Lord of Space at all to obtain the Abyssal Power of Space.

Most importantly, as he obtained all of the Ten Great Abyssal Law Powers, his Cosmic Starry Sky had actually ignited one percent of its stars.

His cultivation Realm had also reached the Golden Core Early Stage Peak.

Of course.

Possessing the fishing System.

He went to the pond to fish every day without fail.

Fortunately, aside from the two empty hooks after killing Chu Qingdi, he hadn't had an empty hook since.

However, the quality of the treasures he obtained had completely declined.

Such as a hundred pounds of Dragon Tooth Rice.

Yellow-Grade Medium Grade Spirit Rice.

Or a set of battle armor from a technological world.

It had no grade, but in Li Changsheng's view, it only had the power of a Yellow-Grade High Grade item at most.
