Chapter 462: The Power of Time
Chapter 462: The Power of Time
After three months, Cui Heng’s cultivation realm had improved a little. More stars condensed in his apertures.
“It was originally sent up by Wu Cheng of the Linshan Tribe. He sent it to me two days ago.” Pei Qingshu did not doubt him and nodded. “He’s now the commander of an area. He worked very hard when preaching, and the local parishioners love him very much.
The reason why Wu Cheng worked so hard was because he wanted to obtain a higher-level cultivation technique, so he tried his best to show off. Once he discovered anything, he would immediately submit it.
The information about these three ancient ruins was accidentally obtained from a tomb when he was preaching outside. The next day, he handed them back to the headquarters, and I sent them to you.”
“Looks like the spread of the Yellow Heaven Sect is still a little too fast.” Cui Heng returned the three jade slips to Pei Qingshu and smiled. “It has already aroused the fear of some people.”
“This…” Pei Qingshu was stunned when he heard this. He was also very puzzled by Cui Heng’s actions of returning the three jade slips, but he quickly reacted and could not help but say in surprise, “Master, are you saying that the information about these three ancient ruins is actually fake and a trap?”
“The information about the ruins might not be fake, but it might be a trap.” Cui Heng shook his head gently and smiled. “It’s difficult to tell if the information in the jade slip is real or fake, but the jade slips must have been tampered with.
According to you, it was only three days ago when Wu Cheng discovered these three jade slips. However, these three jade slips have only been created for ten days.”
“Fake jade slips?!” Pei Qingshu’s eyes widened as he hurriedly took the jade slips back. He placed it in his hand and sized it up carefully. He used his soul perception to investigate, but in the end, he frowned and said, “Master, I can’t tell if it’s fake.”
Actually, before sending the jade slip to Cui Heng, he had already calculated the age of the jade slip. His preliminary estimation was that it should be something from 10,000 to 20,000 years ago.
Moreover, he had read many books and confirmed that the patterns were all in the style of 10,000 to 20,000 years ago.
In addition, he also used the power of his soul to directly investigate. He calculated the age of the jade slip and also came to the conclusion that this was an ancient item from 10,000 to 20,000 years ago. There was nothing unusual about it.
Unexpectedly, he still got tricked?
“It’s normal that you can’t tell.” Cui Heng nodded slightly. He stretched out a finger and pointed lightly at the three jade slips. Immediately, a layer of grayish-white light appeared on them.
This layer of light actually emitted an ancient and experienced aura. Just looking at this light made one feel as if they had experienced a long time.
Then, Cui Heng raised his finger gently. This layer of light instantly condensed into three grayish-white crystals. They were only the size of an ordinary person’s fingernail and floated in the air.
At the same time, the ancient aura on the three jade slips disappeared, and they became as clean as new, as if they had been cut and made a few days ago.
“This, this is?!” Pei Qingshu’s eyes widened when he saw this. He stared at the three crystals and said in surprise, “Master, is this the power of the Heaven Gate’s characteristic? I felt a similar aura from Hui Shi’s power.” “That’s right. This is the manifestation of the power of the Heaven Gate’s characteristic, and it’s a characteristic that contains a portion of the power of time.” Cui Heng held the three jade slips in his palm and said in a low voice, “Through the power of this Heaven Gate’s characteristic, one can perfectly transform originally new things into ancient objects. Even the traces of time are real.”
These three jade slips were not complete Heaven Gate characteristics. They were just the manifestation of power derived from some Heaven Gate characteristics, somewhat similar to the manifestation of some spell.
30v“No wonder I couldn’t figure it out. It’s actually a Heaven Gate-level technique,” Pei Qingshu said in surprise. “Did we alarm a Heaven Gate-level Venerable?”
“I’m afraid it’s not just a Venerable.” Cui Heng shook his head gently and put away the three jade slips. He said in a low voice, “The characteristics of time powers are not something that cultivators at the first three levels of the Heaven Gate realm can have. It should be experts who have crossed the First Heavenly Ladder realm who wanted to probe our strength.”
“They actually directly mobilized such an expert?” Pei Qingshu said in shock.
“What we did in the Wood Nation is not a secret, and we’re also preaching in the Green Stone Wasteland. Anyone with a discerning eye should be able to tell that there’s at least one ‘Venerable’ among us.” Cui Heng chuckled and said, “Under such circumstances, it’s naturally unlikely for the Venerables to be the one to test us.”
“Master, could it be that the people from the Longevity Divine Mountain have already arrived?” Pei Qingshu guessed.
“Yes, it’s very likely.” Cui Heng nodded slightly and said, “After three months, Chang Yongxin and Jing Xiangzhen should have arrived at the Longevity Divine Mountain.
When Hui Shi returns, he’ll naturally know the situation of the Longevity Divine Mountain. At that time, I’ll get Hui Shi to guard the Yellow Heaven Sect to prevent any experts from ambushing us.”
“Thank you, Master!” Pei Qingshu bowed.
“Go back.” Cui Heng smiled and said, “Although the three jade slips you sent this time are fake, that characteristic power on them is useful to me. After some time, I’ll teach you some small tricks.”
“Master is going to teach me another divine technique?” Pei Qingshu was extremely excited. He still remembered the techniques Cui Heng had taught him on Tianmen Star. They were too powerful.
“It can directly increase your strength.” Cui Heng smiled.
“That’s great! Thank you, Master!!” Pei Qingshu bade farewell happily and left.
Increasing strength meant increasing combat strength, and his cultivation was mainly focused on combat. This could directly assist his cultivation!
After Pei Qingshu left.
Cui Heng took out the three jade slips again and thought to himself, “The power of time is not a power that can be controlled at the Nascent Soul realm. I only began to involve myself in this aspect after reaching the Soul Formation realm.
Although the nomological Dao runes in the boundless starry sky in my ancestral aperture have already flowed with time, I haven’t cultivated any spells in this aspect, and I can’t even directly mobilize this portion of power.
But these people can actually directly obtain the characteristics of this level of spell in the Heaven Gate. If the characteristics of the Heaven Gate grasped by a Heaven Gate expert reach the Soul Formation realm, it can affect me a little.
I’ve never encountered such techniques in the past, and my subconscious has formed a blind spot, so I’ve never cared. I can’t do this in the future. I need to cultivate some time-type spells.
To make up for this shortcoming. Moreover, these three jade slips are actually equivalent to the materialization of three spells. They can be used to exchange for the Immortal Technique Voucher.”
Thinking of this, he returned to the Grotto-Heaven Dao Palace and ordered the System.
“Exchange for an Immortal Technique Voucher and use the Intermediate Immortal Technique, From Initiate to Ascension to deduce targeted spells.
The direction of deduction is Time!”
