CHAPTER 419: CHAPTER 395: A HUNDRED YEARS OF TIME

The appearance of this small tower changed Emperor Jiang’s eyes.

Even the bald man and Xiao Huang, who had just been absorbing the potency of medicine, couldn’t help but look over.

A look of confusion appeared on their faces.

This tower... for some reason, it always made them feel a hint of familiarity.

But upon closer thought, they could not recall any details.

The bald man and Xiao Huang were one thing; they had lost most of their previous memories, which although were slowly recovering, were far from fully restored.

However, as a Chaotic Beast, Emperor Jiang had long had a photographic memory.

Forget a tower, even a mosquito that flew past him ten thousand years ago would be remembered clearly if he wished to recall it.

Yet this tower somehow gave him a sense of both familiarity and strangeness.

For someone of his Cultivation, this was incredibly inconceivable.

Emperor Jiang stared at the tower for a long time, and despite racking his brains to the point of headache, he could not figure it out.

Shi Nian saw their expressions and became curious: "Have you seen this tower before?"

Emperor Jiang hesitated a bit: "I’m not sure. But if I have, it must have been in the depths of Chaos."

Only the peculiar places deep within Chaos possess such strong abilities to interfere with memory.

The depths of Chaos?

Shi Nian gave the Time Tower a thoughtful glance and did not dwell on it further, introducing: "This is the Time Tower. A hundred years pass on its second layer, while only one year passes outside. If you go there to cultivate, by the time you finish your retreat, you will have become an Immortal Venerable, or at least infinitely close to it."

The Time Tower?

Emperor Jiang’s eyes suddenly lit up.

This was an artifact that contained the Law of Time!

It is said that the two most fundamental laws in the world are the Law of Time and the Law of Space.

The Law of Space can still be utilized by everyone.

Things like the Storage Bag are simple applications of the Law of Space.

The Transmission Array he had set up also contained attributes of space.

But the Law of Time was mysterious.

For so many years, no one was heard to have mastered this law. It seemed to be a power belonging to the Heavenly Dao.

But now.

The Heavenly Dao has bestowed this power upon a tower.

Thus it became the Time Tower.

Emperor Jiang’s heart trembled, and he couldn’t help saying: "Miss Shi, the entity behind you is extraordinary."

Before Shi Nian could speak.

Xiao Tong already proudly said in Shi Nian’s mind.

"Of course it’s extraordinary! This Xiao Tong is the most invincible Tong in the entire universe!"

Ignoring Xiao Tong’s self-aggrandizing, Shi Nian smiled and said: "Perhaps. Anyway, as long as it helps us improve our Cultivation, that’s good enough. The second layer of the Time Tower has five spots. I’ve also invited Qing Yi and Lin Lei, plus senior and Xiao Huang. That makes five spots filled."

The bald man: "Chirp chirp chirp chirp?"

Seeing his anxiety, Shi Nian said with a smile: "You and I have a master-servant Contract, so you don’t count towards the quota and can enter with me."

The bald man was then reassured.

See there?

He’s shrewd for having signed a master-servant treaty with his master in advance. Now the advantage is showing, isn’t it?

Looking at the bald man’s proud demeanor, Emperor Jiang felt his emotions were complicated.

He missed the arrogant big brother from before a little.

But this current big brother...

Well, he decided to take an Image Stone just in case.

Emperor Jiang secretly pocketed the Image Stone.

He had habitually recorded many dark histories of the bald man and Xiao Huang, just waiting for them to regain their memories so he could show them.

Shi Nian said: "This time, the Time Tower will stay here in senior’s secret room. Senior, I will reinforce the Barrier later. This year’s Cultivation must not be disrupted."

Emperor Jiang also responded gravely.

After Shi Nian had re-arranged the Barrier, Qing Yi and Lin Lei also returned after taking care of their affairs.

Qing Yi reported that Cang Feng had already returned and conveyed that he would bring the one-year agreement to Feiyun.

Shi Nian nodded.

She opened the Time Tower. The next instant, everyone entered the second layer.

The lengthy retreat had thus begun.

At this moment, Feiyun Immortal Emperor also received Cang Feng’s report.

Coming in person to discuss after a year?

Feiyun raised an eyebrow.

At their level of cultivation, a year passed by in the blink of an eye, hardly considered a long time.

Therefore, in Feiyun’s view, this timeframe was relatively sincere.

Perhaps the person behind the scenes was currently unable to extricate himself.

Since a year was stated.

Then he would give Emperor Jiang and that person some face.

In one year, he would definitely capture Lin Lei.

Coincidentally, the Bloodline Technique within him had not yet been cultivated to its most perfect state.

Once he adjusted his condition.

One year later!

He would seize Lin Lei’s bloodline and advance to Immortal Venerate.

"I understand. This year, there is no need to concern ourselves with the matters of the Lost Land," Feiyun Immortal Emperor instructed, then closed his eyes.

He did not believe that the Lost Land could stir up much trouble in a year’s time.

Even if it did cause any upheaval, once he broke through to Immortal Venerate, a flick of his fingers would be enough to suppress it.

Inside the Time Tower.

Shi Nian and the others each had a secret room to themselves, focusing intently on their cultivation.

If anyone’s cultivation was increasing too quickly, it had to be the baldy and little yellow.

Their cultivation levels were low before and being Chaotic Beasts with Soul Realms far exceeding their own, their cultivation naturally advanced rapidly, with great strides every day.

After ten years, the two little ones simultaneously broke through to the Golden Immortal Realm.

Afterward, their cultivation continued to increase.

In another ten years, Qing Yi and Lin Lei both broke through to the Golden Immortal Middle Stage.

Fifty years later.

The two little ones broke through to the Golden Immortal Middle Stage.

Qing Yi and Lin Lei advanced to the Golden Immortal Late Stage.

And Shi Nian had cultivated to the Fifth Layer of the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Technique.

The small world of the Fifth Layer was a more normal one, and Shi Nian felt that the difficulty there was far less than that of the previous ocean world, so she easily got through it.

After that, their cultivation continued to rise.

When the century was nearly up.

A tremendous disturbance suddenly emanated from Emperor Jiang’s secret room.

Within the space of the Time Tower, suddenly rays of dawn light beamed, and winds surged with clouds.

Shi Nian awoke from her meditation.

With a single thought, she left the secret room.

She saw Emperor Jiang revealing his true form, his massive body basking in thousands of radiant lights, undergoing various extraordinary changes.

A smile flickered across Shi Nian’s lips.

Emperor Jiang... was about to break through.

Qing Yi and the others also stopped their cultivation, curiously watching from below.

Under the radiant glow, Emperor Jiang’s body seemed to be enveloped in a layer of crystalline shield, shimmering with silver light, exceptionally beautiful.

This process lasted for a full day and night.

When the dawn light completely vanished.

In the sky, Emperor Jiang let out a tremendous roar.

There was too much joy in this roar!

After so many years.

He had finally broken through to the Immortal Venerate Realm.

Although it was unknown how much time was needed to return to Chaos, he had nevertheless taken an incredibly firm step forward.

After rolling in the sky and roaring for a while, suddenly, he saw Shi Nian and the others watching from the ground.

His actions suddenly stiffened.

emmm...

This seemed somewhat embarrassing.

He gave a light cough, and slowly descended.

"There was a bit of an accident just now, I was controlled by a Heart Demon, hence my behavior was a bit odd, but now the Heart Demon is gone," Emperor Jiang explained.

Shi Nian nodded: "I believe you."

Clearing his throat, Emperor Jiang said: "Shi Nian, tell me, who do you want to take on next? With me here, I’ll take down even the heavens for you!"

He was brimming with confidence, looking as though he was already invincible.
