Chapter 2132: Time Stops

~7 min read 1,317 words

Is it already refined?

How come I don't feel anything?

Ye Liuyun asked the Book Demon.

Previously, when he refined treasures, he would receive feedback from those treasures, at least some of their names and usage.

This time Ye Liuyun only felt that the treasure had recognized him as its master, but afterward there was no movement, and it gave him no information.

He now doesn't even know whether this treasure is actually called a Time Ring.

Although I helped you refine it.

but it dislikes you for being too weak and can't be bothered with you!

The Book Demon said to Ye Liuyun without hiding anything.

Ye Liuyun, hearing this, also felt a bit embarrassed: "Um... then to me, isn't it just a useless piece of junk?"

You can't say that!

The Book Demon thought for a moment and explained to Ye Liuyun: "This Time Ring can truly help you alter time! It can only be said that for now it's not of much use to you!"

Currently you haven't mastered Time Power yourself, so you can only activate this Time Ring with your Divine Soul Power, relying on its own power to help you pause time for a moment.

About five breaths' worth of time, which should be enough for you to escape!

Ye Liuyun also had no idea what effects altering time would bring.

But being able to stop time for five breaths is extremely useful for him.

In five breaths' time, using spatial overlap he could run away without a trace.

With this cheating ability, no one will be able to kill it in the future.

Can I try it?

At a critical moment, I can use it to save my life!

Ye Liuyun asked the Book Demon.

The Book Demon also helplessly scolded: "Look at your little ambition! Can't you think about taking down your opponent?"

When time stops, the opponent doesn't move; standing there letting you kill them, you still can't kill them?

Haha, what you say makes sense! Then can it be activated consecutively?

Ye Liuyun seriously countered.

He was thinking that if there were many opponents, if he didn't seize this chance to run, he would waste this time-stop opportunity.

I'm really impressed by you!

The Book Demon was also speechless at Ye Liuyun's odd idea: "Why do you insist on provoking so many strong opponents? You couldn't kill them all even with five breaths of stopped time."

I'm just saying, in case! If I get the chance I'll definitely kill them! First tell me, can it be activated consecutively.

I'll test it; will it waste the power inside it?

Ye Liuyun also didn't want to continue arguing about this topic.

It can be activated consecutively, but its remaining energy is indeed limited—probably enough for about seven or eight uses. Why don't you wait for a critical moment to try it?

The Book Demon suggested.

Ye Liuyun thought it over and still felt he should test it first, to have some understanding before being safe.

After all, such things are used at critical moments to save lives.

If he hadn't understood it beforehand and something went wrong at a critical moment, his life would be at stake.

Suit yourself!

The Book Demon, regarding Ye Liuyun's unambitious ideas, also completely didn't want to continue talking with him.

However, Ye Liuyun wouldn't try it for nothing.

He first put the Time Ring around his neck, hidden inside his clothes, then returned to the inn, bringing Yuan Bin back to the Royal City.

After returning to the Royal City, Ye Liuyun searched everywhere for Martial Cultivators at the Ninth Layer Late Stage.

Soon, inside a casino, Ye Liuyun encountered a enforcer Martial Cultivator who was at the Ninth Layer Late Stage.

With him holding down the venue, no one dared to cause trouble here.

At this point, Ye Liuyun began using his Divine Soul Power to activate that Time Ring.

The Time Ring immediately flashed a blinding white light, so strong that even his gilded armor couldn't block it.

But as soon as the white light was released, the entire world froze.

It really works!

Ye Liuyun overjoyed, immediately projected a Divine Soul, rushing into the Sea of Consciousness of that Ninth Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivator, first planting a Slave Seal on him, then searching for information, learning that this person was Zhang Heng, and then quickly withdrew his Divine Soul.

Only one breath's time, I'm a bit nervous!

Thinking this, Ye Liuyun immediately released two Divine Soul Powers together, and also gave the Slave Seal to the two other enforcer Martial Cultivators at the Ninth Realm in the casino.

Two breaths' time! I can still snag some more gambling funds!

Thinking this, Ye Liuyun gestured with his hand, sucking the Storage Ring from the casino administrator's hand.

After that he didn't move again, standing in place, counting the time.

When the five breaths' time passed, time resumed its flow, and everyone's movements continued.

Only someone just now felt as if a light flashed here.

But since it was only an instant, and then time froze, the white light they saw was just the Time Ring's initial activation; they couldn't see the subsequent blinding white light.

Some sensitive Martial Cultivators might notice, but they wouldn't pay much attention.

After Ye Liuyun understood the full process of the Time Ring from activation to cessation, he finally relaxed.

Looks like from now on, as long as I activate the Time Ring a bit earlier, it'll work fine; this treasure's response speed is decent.

And the time is exactly five breaths!

He waited a while longer before hearing the casino administrator shout: "A thief! My storage ring was stolen!"

Then a burst of laughter erupted, and nobody believed his words.

"Hahaha, the storage ring is on your own hand—how could it be stolen?"

"You must have hidden it yourself, just shouting 'catch the thief' to cover up?"

All the casino's enforcers also looked at the administrator, unsure what he meant by shouting that.

Martial cultivators' senses naturally surpass those of ordinary people.

That a storage ring worn on the hand could actually be stolen—something like that, they also wouldn't believe.

The administrator himself stood there stunned, not knowing how to explain it to others.

But he indeed felt nothing; the storage ring just disappeared.

"Your master is here!"

Ye Liuyun also used the slave seal to send a voice transmission to the casino's three enforcers.

Those three immediately glanced in Ye Liuyun's direction.

"When you have a chance, find an excuse to leave, pack up your things, then come find me outside the west city gate—I'll take you away from here!"

Ye Liuyun sent them a voice transmission via the slave seal.

"Yes!"

The three responded in unison.

Ye Liuyun no longer watched the commotion, turned and left, heading to the west city gate to wait for the three enforcers.

After waiting a little more than an hour, the three arrived one after another.

Ye Liuyun took them into the space world, then immediately rushed to the teleportation array and returned to the alien battlefield.

He didn't dare stay longer, fearing that the news of the hunter squad captain being captured by him would be discovered by the Zhongxing Dynasty.

The God King had ordered the captain to personally lead men to seize a treasure; with so much time passed and no reply, the God King would surely inquire.

If the God King then ordered a citywide lockdown and search, he wouldn't be able to leave even if he wanted to.

This time he had captured two martial cultivators at the late ninth layer, far exceeding his expectations.

Having gained enough, there's no need to take further risks.

After Ye Liuyun returned to the alien battlefield, he did not go to kill the foreign tribesmen; instead, he immediately returned to the East Yun Dynasty.
