Chapter 368

But how can we increase the holy beast's temporal power?

-> "But how can we increase the power of time of this holy beast?" Actually literal: "But how can we increase this holy beast's power of time?" We'll translate: "But how can we increase this holy beast's power of time?" Keep the question mark.

Bai Ce frowned.

-> Bai Ce furrowed his brow.

Back when he studied at the Hall of Scholars, he wasn't a particularly outstanding student.

-> When he studied at the Hall of Learned Divinity, he was not an outstanding student.

If not for the divine revelation from the God of the Burdened World, he'd likely still be just an ordinary graduate of the Hall of Scholars.

-> If it weren't for the divine edict from the God Who Bears the World, he would probably still just be an ordinary graduate of the Hall of Learned Divinity.

And he wouldn't be called the "savior" by Xiao Wan Di and the others.

-> And he would not become the "savior" that people like Xiao Wandi speak of.

Given what he learned at the Hall of Scholars, he couldn't even think of how to enhance Little Wolf's power.

-> With the knowledge he mastered at the Hall of Learned Divinity, he simply cannot think of how to enhance Little Wolf's ability.

But at that moment, a ripple spread through the space at the crowd's center, and a brown door materialized.

-> However, at that moment, the space in the crowd's center suddenly rippled, and then a brown door appeared.

Upon seeing the door, Zhang Hao and the others immediately got goosebumps, like frightened birds.

-> Seeing this door, Zhang Hao and the others immediately felt their hairs stand on end like startled birds.

They still vividly remembered the terrifying strength of the black-robed swordsman they had seen before.

-> The terrifying strength of the black-robed swordsman before is still vivid in their minds.

If not for the holy beast Peng that appeared out of nowhere and repelled the black-robed swordsman, they would probably have been struck down by his blade.

-> If it weren't for the holy beast Great Peng that came from nowhere and drove off the black-robed swordsman, they would likely have fallen in the light of the swordsman's slash.

Now the black-robed swordsman appears again, but the Peng is nowhere to be found.

-> Now the black-robed swordsman appears again, while that Great Peng's whereabouts are unknown.

What lies ahead for them—could it already be a hopeless situation?

-> What awaits them—could it already be a dead end?

Just as everyone stood ready, a youthful voice sounded in their ears,

-> Just as everyone was on high alert, a youthful voice sounded near their ears,

"Little Bai, Feng Yue Shan asked me to bring something!"

-> "Xiao Bai, Feng Yue Shan sent me to deliver something!"

"Teacher An Jianan?"

-> "Teacher An Jianan?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Bai Ce's eyes brightened.

-> Hearing the familiar voice, Bai Ce's eyes lit up immediately.

But the smile that had just appeared on his face was quickly overtaken by worry.

-> But the smile that had just appeared on his face was instantly replaced by worry.

"Teacher An Jianan, can your body take it?"

-> "Teacher An Jianan, can your body handle it?"

For the God‑slaying quest, Teacher An Jianan has already roamed the world for a thousand years.

-> For the Journey to Slay Gods, Teacher An Jianan has already wandered the world for a thousand years.

Constantly using the Myriad Paths Gate has long overwhelmed Teacher An Jianan's soul.

-> Continuous use of the Myriad Paths Gate has long overburdened Teacher An Jianan's soul.

According to Feng Yue Shan, Teacher An Jianan almost constantly endures the agony of her soul being ripped apart!

-> According to Feng Yue Shan, Teacher An Jianan almost constantly suffers the pain of a torn soul!

So unless the situation is urgent, they normally wouldn't bother Teacher An Jianan to open the Myriad Paths Gate.

-> Therefore, unless the situation is urgent, no one would normally ask Teacher An Jianan to activate the Myriad Paths Gate.

Bai Ce didn't anticipate that Teacher An Jianan would open the Myriad Paths Gate and arrive here right now.

-> Bai Ce never expected Teacher An Jianan to actually open the Myriad Paths Gate and come here at this moment.

An Jianan hopped out of the door and landed steadily on the ground.

-> An Jianan leapt out of the door in a hop and landed steadily on the ground.

She grinned, raising her head to look at Bai Ce,

-> She looked up at Bai Ce with a grin,

"Little Bai, don't worry—opening the Myriad Paths Gate for myself doesn't take much strength."

-> "Don't worry, Xiao Bai, the Myriad Paths Gate that I myself cross doesn't take much effort."

Having said that, An Jianan turned to Gu Han and nodded in thanks,

-> Saying this, An Jianan turned to look at Gu Han and nodded in thanks,

"Besides, thanks to the gift from Xiao Hui, my soul has largely healed, so I can release the Myriad Paths Gate many times!"

-> "Besides, with the thing sent by Xiao Hui, my soul has largely recovered, and I can release the Myriad Paths Gate many times!"

Hearing An Jianan's words, Bai Ce glanced at Gu Han in surprise.

-> Hearing An Jianan's words, Bai Ce couldn't help but look at Gu Han in surprise.

It appears that while I was away from the Holy City, many unexpected events occurred there.

-> It seems that while I was away from Sheng Cheng, many unexpected things happened there.

Still, Bai Ce reminded them with a stern expression,

-> However, Bai Ce still gave a solemn reminder,

"Teacher An Jianan, you must always look after your health; if you collapse, how will our God‑slaying quest continue?"

-> "Teacher An Jianan, no matter what, you must look after your health; if you collapse, how can our Journey to Slay Gods continue?"

Seeing Bai Ce's solemn expression, An Jianan sighed helplessly and locked eyes with him.

-> Seeing Bai Ce's serious expression, An Jianan sighed helplessly and gazed into his eyes,

"Little Bai, have you forgotten the divine revelation from the God of the Burdened World?"

-> "Xiao Bai, have you forgotten the divine edict the God Who Bears the World gave you?"

Hearing that, Bai Ce froze in place.

-> As soon as she said that, Bai Ce froze on the spot.

He then shook his head,

-> Then he shook his head,

"No matter what, I won't let anyone sacrifice themselves!"

-> "No matter what, I will not let anyone sacrifice themselves!"

Seeing their talk stall, Gu Han immediately interrupted,

-> Seeing their conversation seemed to be at an impasse, Gu Han immediately interrupted them,

"Teacher An Jianan, you came rushing here so urgently—you must have a solution, right?"

-> "Teacher An Jianan, you rushed over so urgently; you must have a solution, right?"

An Jianan nodded, pulling three bottles of golden honey from her bosom,

-> An Jianan nodded and took out three bottles of golden honey from her bosom,

"Feng Yue Shan realized we might have no way to counter the War God's infinite resurrection, so she had me bring all the remaining divine blood honey to boost the holy beast's power, hoping to make it as close to a time demi‑god as possible."

-> "Feng Yue Shan thought that we might have no way to deal with the War God's infinite resurrection, so she had me bring all the remaining Divine Blood Nectar to let the holy beast enhance its ability and become as much a demigod of time as possible."

"That would give us a chance to undo the War God's resurrection."

-> "That way, there is a chance to break the War God's resurrection."

"Before, Feng Yue Shan merely hoped that Bai Ce and Xiao Wan Di could defeat the War God."

-> If it were before, Feng Yue Shan merely held the hope that Bai Ce and Xiao Wandi could defeat the War God.

"She had no sure‑fire plan for victory."

-> She had no plan for certain victory.

"But after returning from the Hall of Scholars, An Jianan informed her that the holy beast beside Gu Han wields control over time."

-> But after returning from the Hall of Learned Divinity, An Jianan told her that the holy beast beside Gu Han possesses the ability to control time.

"Feng Yue Shan's plan had already fully taken shape in her mind!"

-> Feng Yue Shan's plan had thus fully formed in her mind!

"Becoming a time demi‑god might be the key step to seize the War God's spark."

-> Perhaps becoming a demigod of time is the crucial step to seize the War God's fire seed!

Gu Han curled the corner of his mouth and gave a faint smile,

-> Gu Han curled the corner of his mouth and smiled lightly,

"I never thought that woman would be so generous."

-> "I never expected that woman to be so generous."

He didn't bother with pleasantries, taking the divine blood honey from An Jianan and giving it directly to Little Wolf.

-> He had no thought of ceremony, took the Divine Blood Nectar from An Jianan's hand, and directly gave it to Little Wolf.

Little Wolf stuck out his tongue, looking eager and impatient.

-> Little Wolf stuck out his tongue, an eager expression on his face.

As Little Wolf raised his head and drank the divine blood honey, Gu Han poured all the accumulated monster qi and blood he had gathered into Little Wolf.

-> As Little Wolf raised his head and poured the Divine Blood Nectar into his mouth, Gu Han allocated all the Monster Beast Qi Blood he had accumulated so far onto Little Wolf.

Immediately, a pink mist surrounded Little Wolf.

-> Immediately, a pink mist enveloped Little Wolf.

Within the mist, faint moans continually sounded.

-> Within the mist, faint moans continually sounded.

"Mmm… ah~"

-> "Mmm… ah~"

It sounded like some kind of indescribable sound.

-> It sounded like some kind of indescribable noise.

Everyone who heard the sound felt a bit embarrassed.

-> Everyone present hearing that sound couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.

If everyone there were just rough‑hewn types, it wouldn't matter.

-> If everyone present were just rough folks, it would be fine.

But there's also An Jianan, who looks like a little girl of only six or seven!

-> But there's also An Jianan, who looks like a six- or seven-year-old little girl!

Especially Bai Ce, he still looks inexperienced in worldly affairs.

He curiously looked at An Jianan,

"Teacher An Jianan, becoming a demigod, is it this enjoyable?"

Gu Han and the others were instantly speechless.

Bai Ce this Fellow, does his brain really not lack a string?

An Jianan obviously did not want to deal with Bai Ce, and said unhappily,

"Xiao Bai, back when the teachers were teaching, you weren't paying attention, right?"

Huh?

Bai Ce hearing this, instantly shuddered, and hurriedly said,

"Teacher, you're clearly framing me! Back then, who didn't know I was one of the most diligent students in the Hall of Learned Gods?"

"Yeah yeah yeah, ordinary people wouldn't think you'd draw eyes on your own eyelids."

An Jianan, grinning, exposed Bai Ce's trick,

"Obviously you were just lying there sleeping, yet you made the teachers think you were paying attention seriously."

The number of Savior Heirs is extremely small; it's impossible for all the teachers of the Hall of Learned Gods to be Savior Heirs.

Therefore, these scholar teachers, although their knowledge in each course is extremely profound.

However, under Bai Ce's superb disguise skills, they still couldn't tell that Bai Ce was resting during class!

Bai Ce, who originally thought himself flawless, was suddenly exposed by An Jianan regarding past events, and instantly felt a bit embarrassed.

So ashamed he had nowhere to hide!

"Teacher An, please stop speaking!"

Bai Ce's face turned blush red,

"This is just old sesame seeds and rotten millet; let's not mention it."

Interrupted by An Jianan like that, Bai Ce also forgot what he originally wanted to ask.

Soon after, the pink mist gradually faded.

Little Wolf, about the size of a basketball, appeared again before everyone's eyes.

Its fur color differed from the previous gray-and-white pattern.

At this moment, Little Wolf grew a few strands of pink fur on its body.

This color scheme should make it look extremely strange.

But instead it gives a feeling of a unique beauty.

It seems as if a wolf ought naturally to have this coloration.

"Little Wolf, this God of War is entrusted to you!"
