Chapter 256: Time Force! The Astonishing Xuantian Daojun!
Chapter 256: Time Force! The Astonishing Xuantian Daojun!
Outside the Blood Demon Taboo Zone.
A group of nineteen people stood silently, their formidable auras causing the void to twist and oscillate.
All their gazes were fixed on the young man ahead, who was merely at the Divine Spirit Realm.
Waiting for the next command.
"You all go to Tian Dan Ge first, I have some other matters to attend to."
"Later, I'll meet up with you all at Tian Dan Ge."
Su Changqing glanced at the group and said.
"Sir, the day after tomorrow is the grand ceremony at Tian Dan Ge, where a new master will be selected."
"At that time, should we wait for you to return, or..."
Jun Yu looked at Su Changqing cautiously, hesitating to ask.
The matter of Tian Dan Ge was basically settled, and as long as they followed the plan, success was guaranteed.
But with the sudden appearance of a new leader, Jun Yu didn't know how to proceed.
Of course, he was mainly afraid of stealing the limelight from this leader by acting rashly.
"The day after tomorrow... so soon?"
Hearing this, Su Changqing's brows furrowed.
He wanted to temporarily detach himself from these people and find some powerful individuals.
But with only one day, where could he go to ask for help?
"Sir, what do you plan to do?"
"We still have one day, let's help you settle things first, and then we can go to Tian Dan Ge."
The Near-Imperial from the Restricted Zone spoke with a hint of flattery, and the other powerful beings echoed in agreement.
Despite their high cultivation levels, in terms of status, Tong Lin, who had returned from beyond the domains, far surpassed them.
Moreover, with the Blood Demon Lord's favor and Tong Lin's potential, they naturally wanted to leave a good impression on him.
"No need, just follow the plan."
After a moment of contemplation, Su Changqing said, "I'll come looking for you all the day after tomorrow."
Jun Yu and the others exchanged glances, then nodded and bid farewell to Su Changqing with courtesy.
...
"With only one day, I can only go to the Xuanqing Clan."
After the group left, Su Changqing thought for a long time and decided to seek help from the Xuanqing Clan."
Firstly, he had a good relationship with Xuanqing Zi, and with the recommendation of the Divine Calculator, everyone would believe his words.
Secondly, since it involved the Darkness Restricted Zone, and the Xuanqing Clan was the domain master's sect, it was only reasonable for them to pay attention.
As long as he could get help from the Xuanqing Clan, the crisis at Tian Dan Ge could be resolved!
"There's no time to waste, let's go to the Xuanqing Clan!"
With that thought, Su Changqing didn't delay any further and turned to head towards the Xuanqing Clan.
Just then, an aged voice descended from the sky.
"Why are you going to the Xuanqing Clan?"
"If it's a small favor, this old man can lend a hand."
Along with the voice, an old man with white hair and beard, looking so aged that he was barely recognizable, appeared.
He casually glanced at the Blood Demon Taboo Zone ahead, then smiled at Su Changqing.
"Senior, you are..."
Seeing the sudden appearance of the old man, Su Changqing was taken aback.
The old man's aura was weak, and his body was filled with the aura of impending death, making it difficult to gauge his cultivation level.
But from his calm and harmonious temperament, it was clear that he was no ordinary person.
"Just an old man on the verge of death."
The old man smiled lightly and took out a jade pendant engraved with the character 'Su'.
"I came here today to ask for a favor, and I'd like to ask you to extend my life for some time."
This person was none other than Xuantian Daojun, who had come out from the Xuanqing Clan.
Although Su Changqing was enveloped by the Zhe Tian Formation, the jade pendant contained a trace of his divine sense.
Through this, Xuantian was able to locate him.
"A favor..."
Su Changqing looked at the jade pendant, and his heart immediately relaxed.
He didn't know who had given him the jade pendant.
But clearly, the person who possessed it was someone very close to him.
And this old man was a friend, not an enemy.
"Senior, there's no problem with extending your life, but it may take some time."
Su Changqing bowed apologetically and said, "I have urgent matters to attend to and need to make a trip to the Xuanqing Clan first."
"Hehe, can you tell this old Daoist what happened?"
Xuantian smiled lightly and said, "I happen to know some people from the Xuanqing Clan."
"If it's something important, I can directly send a message to inform them."
Hearing this, Su Changqing was overjoyed.
What he lacked the most was time, and if he could save some travel time, that would be the best.
With that thought, he turned to the old man and said solemnly, "Senior, please send a message to the Xuanqing Clan as soon as possible and ask them to send some powerful individuals to Tian Dan Ge."
"In the past few days, the Blood Demon Taboo Zone is preparing to make a move on Tian Dan Ge."
"The entire lineage of Dan Kings in Tian Dan Ge has already fallen into darkness."
"The day after tomorrow is the grand ceremony at Tian Dan Ge, and they plan to strike then."
"The Blood Demon Taboo Zone has already dispatched a Near-Imperial and over ten powerful beings."
Su Changqing explained everything in detail, clearly describing the situation at Tian Dan Ge and the Blood Demon Taboo Zone.
Although he didn't know the old man before him, the jade pendant with the character 'Su' was enough to earn his trust.
"Tian Dan Ge, the Blood Demon Taboo Zone..."
After listening, Xuantian's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes narrowed, flashing with a dangerous light.
He had been in seclusion for many years, and the Eastern Domain was far more chaotic than he had imagined.
Even Tian Dan Palace, the sacred land of the Dan Dao, had already been infiltrated by darkness.
"Hmmph, is this generation's leader of the Xuanqing Clan Xuan Yi?"
"How does this young man handle matters? He's even worse than that muddle-headed teacher of his!"
Xuan Yan was furious, extremely dissatisfied with this generation's leader's ability to manage affairs.
"Senior, please hurry and send someone."
"If we miss the timing, Tian Dan Palace will be in trouble."
Seeing Xuan Yan's silence, Su Changqing thought he was scared and quickly spoke up.
"Don't worry, leave this matter to me."
"Go ahead with the Dan Palace ceremony, and Xuanqing Clan will send someone at that time."
Xuan Yan chuckled, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
Of course, Xuanqing Clan would send someone, but it wouldn't be Xuan Yi, the leader, or any other cultivator.
Instead, it would be the Dominus of the Eastern Realm, Xuan Yan Daojun, who had been in seclusion for many years.
"Senior, is what you said true?"
"Can you really invite a powerful cultivator from Xuanqing Clan, one at the Near-Imperial level?"
Seeing how easily he agreed, Su Changqing asked with some uncertainty.
"Hahaha."
Xuan Yan laughed heartily at his reaction, "Rest assured, I've cultivated the Dao in Xuanqing Clan for my entire life."
"I still have some face there."
Su Changqing nodded, but still unsure, he asked, "May I ask for your name, Senior?"
As this concerned the life and death of the entire Tian Dan Palace, he was being cautious.
"My name is Xuan Yan," Xuan Yan said, stroking his beard with a smile.
Xuan Yan?
Su Changqing had not inquired about the Dominus of the Eastern Realm, who had been in seclusion for many years, so he did not recognize the man before him.
Fortunately, he had a friend in the Daoist sect who could help him find out.
Su Changqing: [Daoist, I have a question. Do you know someone named Xuan Yan in Xuanqing Clan?]
[Can he really invite powerful cultivators from Xuanqing Clan, even those at the Near-Imperial level?]
After sending this message, he waited for a long time for a response.
After a while, Xuanqing Zi finally replied.
Xuanqing Zi: [.]
Su Changqing: [???]
"What does this mean?"
Su Changqing was confused.
Does he know him or not?
Just as he was about to ask more questions, Xuanqing Zi sent another message.
Xuanqing Zi: [This person has a very senior status in Xuanqing Clan. Calling some people is no problem.]
Xuanqing Zi did not say 'invite' but 'call'.
Because for Xuan Yan, there was no one in Xuanqing Clan that he could 'invite'.
Seeing this, Su Changqing immediately felt relieved.
If Xuanqing Zi said there was no problem, then this elder was not lying.
"Are you feeling more at ease now?"
Xuan Yan asked with a smile, noticing Su Changqing's subtle reaction.
"Please don't be offended, Senior. This matter is of great importance, and we can't afford to be careless."
Su Changqing was not embarrassed and laughed openly.
Hum!
At that moment, the Hun dun zhu within Su Changqing's Palace of Life seemed to sense something.
It began to manifest uncontrollably, devouring the river of time.
Su Changqing was startled and quickly suppressed the restless Hun dun zhu.
"This Time Force, I wonder if it was cultivated by the senior or intentionally created."
"If I do something good but end up causing trouble, that would be a problem."
Thinking of this, Su Changqing glanced at the Milky Way and slowly withdrew his divine sense.
...
Soon after, the external Su Changqing opened his eyes.
"How is it?"
Xuan Yan asked with a smile.
He didn't feel any tension, having lived for so many years and witnessed countless events.
"Senior, your source of life is severely depleted."
Su Changqing sighed lightly, "Even if I can replenish some for you, your body's foundation cannot be restored."
"Even if I use all means, I can only extend your life by a thousand years at most."
Hearing this, Xuan Yan, who was smiling, suddenly widened his eyes, and his voice rose, "How much?"
Over the years, Xuan Yan had tried all sorts of methods to extend his life.
Divine pills, miraculous medicines, and heavenly treasures.
But even these rare treasures could only extend his life by a little over a hundred years at most.
This time, he had hoped to extend his life by a few decades or even ten years, and he would have been content.
After all, his body's resistance to medicines had reached its limit.
But who would have thought that Su Changqing would offer a thousand years!
A thousand years! With so much time, he could witness the arrival of the decisive battle.
He could even afford to be more extravagant, contribute to humanity's cause, and showcase the might of a Dao Lord! There was so much he could do with a thousand years.
This sudden joy left Xuan Yan stunned in place.
"Senior, don't get too excited too soon."
Su Changqing sighed, "My method involves gathering the essence of heaven and earth and combining it with the source of life within your body."
"Although this method can extend your life, once the thousand years are up, no other life-extending method in the world will work again."
"Actually, senior, you can be more cautious. If you only extend your life by three hundred years, then in the future..."
Before Su Changqing could finish, Xuan Yan interrupted with a loud laugh, "Haha, this method is excellent!"
"A thousand years, this is a lifespan I never dared to dream of, even in my dreams."
"Other cautious methods are useless to me, this thousand years is enough for me to squander!"
With a thousand years of lifespan, Xuan Yan would obviously not live to see that time.
The Time Force within his body would continuously erode his body, and every time he fought, his lifespan would diminish.
But even so, it was still a million times better than his current condition!
"Senior, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."
Su Changqing hesitated before speaking, "The Time Force within your body will accelerate the loss of your lifespan."
"Although this thing can make your strength stronger, it's best to expel it."
Hearing this, Xuan Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Of course, I'm aware of this."
"But this thing, it's easy to invite a god, but difficult to send one away."
"I've tried countless methods, but I can't expel it from my body. I can only endure its presence."
As he spoke, he patted Su Changqing's shoulder and smiled,
"Being able to extend my life by a thousand years is already a great joy for me."
"It's just a minor issue, I've gotten used to its presence."
If possible, Xuan Yan would naturally want to expel the Time Force.
But the problem was, he couldn't do it.
The power of time was too formidable, and unless something unexpected happened, it would accompany him for life.
Upon hearing this, Su Changqing's eyes lit up.
"Senior said that you have no use for the Time Force?"
Xuan Yan didn't have a use for it, but Su Changqing did!
That river of time, although it couldn't allow him to fully control the Time Force.
But even a small portion of it was enough to allow him to unleash the complete power of time and space once or twice.
With the Fen Yun Tai about to open, having this power would greatly increase his chances of victory!
"What use could this have? Can anyone else control it?"
Xuan Yan shook his head with a carefree smile.
But Su Changqing's next words caused his smile to freeze.
"I can use it!"
Xuan Yan looked at Su Changqing, and after a while, he shook his head with a mix of laughter and tears,
"This young fellow is boasting too much, the power of time..."
Before Xuan Yan could finish, Su Changqing's fingertips formed a seal, and the Hun dun zhu, emitting purple-golden light, appeared above his head.
A formidable pressure emerged, forcefully suppressing the space within a hundred zhang, replacing it!
"This..."
Xuan Yan was stunned by the pressure emanating from all around.
But when he saw the floating pearl, his entire body trembled, and he stood there in a daze.
After a while, a whisper of awe emerged.
"It's the companion Dao weapon of a Dao Lord!"
"Hun dun zhu!"
