Chapter 442: Tenth Heavenly Ancestor

Shen Qing turned his gaze back to the Sand of Time in his hand.

The Sand of Time was tiny like dust, but Shen Qing could feel the immense energy contained within it, as if it were a miniature universe.

According to Anna's description, Anna was inexplicably blown into this space by the aftershock, and Anna had no special powers, which shows that merely touching the Sand of Time allows one to enter that wondrous space.

The true secret of mastering the Sand of Time should also lie within that space.

Shen Qing used Time Power to fix the Sand of Time here; Shen Qing didn't want to emerge from the Sand of Time not knowing where he was.

He then extended a finger and lightly touched the Sand of Time.

In just a moment, everything before him became blurred, and when his vision cleared again, Shen Qing had already entered that wondrous space.

Shen Qing raised his palm, and without him actively gathering it, a rich, emerald-green Time Power flowed at his fingertips.

"Such rich Time Power."

The concentration of Time Power here is far greater than that stored in the Primordial Tower back then.

According to Anna, she had spent at least three days here.

Shen Qing sensed with Time Power that the flow of time here was indeed abnormally slow, about only one-three-hundredth of the outside world.

In other words, three hundred days here pass as one day outside.

Shen Qing's eyes lit up; what he lacked now was time.

This Sand of Time, Shen Qing had decided to take it!

According to Ziyin, this Sand of Time had only ever been seen by the Creator God, so the outside world's knowledge of it was zero, and it might even be the first time the Sand of Time has received a visitor.

Therefore, how to master the Sand of Time could only be discovered by Shen Qing himself.

Shen Qing's gaze darted around; the surrounding Time Power was unusually rich, and merely glancing at it increased his comprehension of Time Power by several points.

This was not the Time Power set up by the Primordial Old Man in the Primordial Tower.

The structure of Time Power within the Sand of Time seemed naturally perfect, not overly complex, yet everywhere it exuded an air of the Great Dao's simplicity, as if time ought to be this way.

At that moment, Shen Qing felt something strange, as if something were floating around him.

The Origin Eye activated, the starry sky reflected in his pupils.

Shen Qing looked around his body and found nothing abnormal, yet his innate six senses clearly told him that the thing was nearby.

Shen Qing raised his hand and emitted Time Light Power; the thing came to his fingertips, but when he reached to grab it, it slipped from his grasp each time, no matter how many tries.

Only when Shen Qing used Time Power would that thing draw near to him.

Shen Qing then realized that his current mastery of Time Power was still insufficient to capture it, or to provoke its resonance.

Since that was the case, Shen Qing understood that he needed to offer his command of Time Power.

How to improve?

Naturally, it was to comprehend the embryonic form of the Time Power domain; moreover, with such a mysterious time structure here, if not now, when?

Shen Qing sat directly on the ground, and with the aid of the surrounding time structure, his comprehension of Time Power rose in a straight line.

And while Shen Qing was comprehending Time Power, the Shattered Realm was also stirring with wind and clouds.

Just after Shen Qing entered the Sand of Time, an uninvited guest arrived at the battlefield.

Luóbótè, Fengxian, and Qianyuan were surrounding and attacking the Divine Guard, about to kill him, when suddenly wind and clouds surged from the endless darkness in the distance.

A black spear flew from afar, streaking straight through the space before Fengxian and the three.

Only a tremendous boom was heard!

The spear plunged deep into the continent of the Shattered Realm; the continent swiftly collapsed and shattered, forming a pit over tens of thousands of meters in diameter.

The faces of Fengxian and the three grew grim; they turned toward the direction the spear came from, seeing that the energy there was extremely violent, as if something terrifying was rapidly approaching.

And the Divine Guard seemed to recognize that black spear, delight showing on his face as he laughed maniacally.

"Hahaha! Fengxian! Luóbótè, you're doomed!"

Hearing that, the faces of Fengxian and the group sank a bit; the Divine Guard, as a member of the Heavenly Dao Clan who had comprehended the Eightfold Supreme Power Domain, had only a few peers stronger than him in the clan.

Thinking of this, their hearts sank straight to the bottom of the valley.

Fengxian whispered: "Retreat directly! This opponent is tough!"

Qianyuan and Luóbótè nodded, turned to leave, but another black spear flew past their sides, cutting off their retreat.

At that same moment, that violent energy also drew near.

The visitor finally revealed his full appearance: a gray-skinned Heavenly Dao, emanating a dark black light, with three black spears on his back; he raised a hand, and the two black spears just flown back to his back.

His expression seemed sorrowful, and the violent energy about him seemed to tell everyone of his immense power.

The Divine Guard immediately bowed: "Divine Guard greets the Tenth Heavenly Ancestor!"

The surrounding Heavenly Dao all shouted: "Greetings to the Tenth Heavenly Ancestor!"

The visitor was precisely the Tenth Heavenly Ancestor of the Heavenly Dao Clan, Shenbei.

Shenbei's eyes, like autumn waters, revealed a sorrowful hue as he looked toward the Divine Guard.

"Who are you fighting?"

The Divine Guard immediately replied: "Reporting to the Tenth Heavenly Ancestor, these few are the Heaven-defiers Fengxian, Qianyuan, and the rebel..."

"I'm not talking about them." Shenbei interrupted the Divine Guard's words.

"There have been fluctuations of Chaotic Power here, and the source is not them."

The Divine Guard was startled, releasing his bodily perception.

He initially thought the battlefield was too chaotic for him to sense it, but upon careful inspection, he found no trace of Chaotic Power.

"Chaotic Power? But how could I not have sensed it?"

Shenbei placed his hand over his heart: "This is not sensed; it is a throbbing from the soul."

Put nicely, it's the soul's palpitations; put harshly, it's because he'd been frightened by Chaotic Power, leaving a psychological scar.

When Chaotic Power appeared, he had a reflexive reaction.

Shen Bei pointed at a place and said, "It appeared there before, and it was well hidden."

Shen Wei was stunned for a moment; wasn't the place Shen Bei pointed to the same place where Shen Qing just slaughtered Mi Yun?

Shen Bei looked at Shen Wei and said, "Just now, who fought there?"

Shen Wei immediately shook his head: "I don't know him; he's a completely unfamiliar face. He went after Kong Wu Dao, and I don't know where he is now."

Immediately afterward, Shen Wei pointed at Feng Chen and said, "But the person was brought by Feng Chen!"

Feng Chen's face changed drastically, and he whispered, "Get ready to fight to the death!"

Feng Chen had said before that the gap between those who had comprehended the Eightfold Supreme Power Realm and those who had comprehended the Ninefold Supreme Power Realm was the Heavenly Chasm.

The Eightfold Supreme Power is merely a simple stacking, but upon reaching the ninth layer, one must connect all the Supreme Power Realms together, producing a qualitative change.

Shen Bei looked at the few people and said, "Are you planning to rebel? I also think you won't tell me what I want to know, so I'll beat you half-dead before asking again."
