Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled-Chapter 411 - 407: The Third Trial, Comprehending the Great Dao of Time

Chapter 411: Chapter 407: The Third Trial, Comprehending the Great Dao of Time

Xia Feng’s expression slightly tightened as he exchanged a glance with Xia Tianming, who suddenly spoke up.

"Wuji Divine Monarch, I withdraw from the third examination."

Wuji Divine Monarch was momentarily stunned. He had initially observed these three as decisive and bold individuals who fought for their own interests, so why did they now declare their withdrawal as if it were the simplest thing?

Tang Yunqi’s expression was also somewhat subtle, and he followed suit, saying, "Wuji Divine Monarch, I withdraw as well."

The Wuji Divine Monarch looked even more bewildered, especially since this young man’s aura held a faintly familiar scent.

He was just about to focus on Tang Yunqi to discern the young man’s background.

Consequently, a phantom ripple emitted from the young man’s body, and even the plum blossom brand on his hand looked as if it weren’t real.

The Wuji Divine Monarch was even more astonished. This, this young man isn’t...

He silently withdrew his gaze, uninterested in why this person had whimsically come to his domain.

However, he now felt an even greater curiosity towards Xia Feng, pondering how he managed to lead two people to so thoroughly give up on the third examination.

One must know that many people died in the previous two examinations, and only ten made it to the third, with seven killed in the process.

Now, only these three remained, with two opting to quit.

His eyes began to swirl with yin and yang, and the area around Xia Feng started to reverse in time like flowing time.

Moments later, the Wuji Divine Monarch saw what Xia Feng had achieved over the past two days through time tracing.

He might have been able to fool those two younglings, but tricking a fellow cultivator of "Heaven and Earth" like the Wuji Divine Monarch was not enough.

The golden giant, standing five thousand feet tall, spoke volumes to the Wuji Divine Monarch—for this young man had cultivated "Heaven and Earth" to the Great Success Realm.

The yin and yang eyes of the Wuji Divine Monarch gradually turned bewildered, unable to fathom how someone could master "Heaven and Earth" to such an extent in two days; it was monstrous talent.

His expression bore some complexity, as if he was still not fully recovered from the shock.

"Young man, are you willing to accept my inheritance?"

Xia Feng’s eyes brightened. "Yes, I am willing."

The Wuji Divine Monarch’s voice turned stranger. "In that case, I shall transport you into the Infinite Illusion Realm to better grasp my legacy."

After a pause, he added, "My legacy is extremely dangerous, only those with the most top-level talent may comprehend even a fraction of it."

His expression became even more subtle. "If you fail to grasp it, you might spend your life imprisoned within the Infinite Illusion Realm."

Xia Feng responded resolutely, "There’s no need to frighten me; I am not afraid of these things."

"Throughout my cultivation journey, I follow the path of struggle."

"I will always have a chance to defy fate."

He slightly lifted the corners of his mouth, casting a confident gaze towards the Wuji Divine Monarch hovering mid-air, directly meeting his eyes.

The Wuji Divine Monarch said nothing, merely waved his hand lightly, and Xia Feng vanished from his original spot.

Xia Tianming felt a twinge of worry, casting another look towards the Wuji Divine Monarch suspended mid-air. The illusion twisted once more, reverting to its slightly lifeless appearance.

"Those who forfeit the third examination must wait until the remaining examinees exit to leave the Secret Realm."

After speaking, he fell silent once more, as if entranced, or perhaps secretly observing the happenings within the Infinite Illusion Realm.

Xia Tianming, unaware of the exact situation, could only gaze anxiously at the Wuji Divine Monarch’s projection in the sky, before finding a corner to sit down, waiting for Xia Feng’s return.

Xia Feng’s current situation was not as he had anticipated.

He originally thought the Infinite Illusion Realm would hold dangers, but in reality, there was nothing but a crimson environment.

It resembled the deepest part of the Sea of Secret Realm nurturing the Blood Beasts.

Amidst this crimson illusion, three energy balls were evidently the third examination’s test.

The light before him twisted, then a blood-red figure emerged in front of him.

After taking one look at its form, Xia Feng furrowed his brows and asked, "Wuji Divine Monarch?"

The Wuji Divine Monarch nodded slightly, then retrieved an oddly shaped disk from his palm. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"This is part of my comprehension of the Great Dao of Time."

"For each fraction of mastery you achieve over the Great Dao of Time, I will allow you to choose one reward."

He pointed at the three spheres behind him, yet Xia Feng suddenly raised his brows in inquiry, "But there are only three rewards."

The Wuji Divine Monarch was initially stunned, then couldn’t help but laugh heartily, "Young man, confidence is one thing, but arrogance is another."

"The Great Dao of Time is difficult to grasp, and less than ten days remain before this Secret Realm closes."

"Even with the most extraordinary talent, comprehending even a fraction would be considered exceptional. Don’t entertain other thoughts."

He handed the disk to Xia Feng, a forlorn expression crossing his features, "I spent my whole life studying time, ultimately still consumed by it."

"Young man, if you can truly master time..."

He left the sentence unfinished, merely smiling before his entire form dissolved into a blood mist, dissipating within this illusion.

Xia Feng sat cross-legged, holding the disk, yet his thoughts were elsewhere.

The Great Dao of Time. His Dream Realm Pearl could arbitrarily alter the flow of time, might there be a connection with it?

With only ten days at his disposal, he was certainly incapable of comprehending much of the Great Dao, so he could only hope to leverage time within the Dream Realm Pearl to increase his understanding.

Only, this time he faced a Divine Monarch. Would his Dream Realm Pearl’s secrets be uncovered?

Xia Feng gently closed his eyes, immersing his Divine Soul into the Dream Realm Pearl, but soon emerged again, as if to observe the Wuji Divine Monarch’s reaction.

After testing several times, Xia Feng finally confirmed that the Wuji Divine Monarch didn’t react.

He took a deep breath and immersed his Divine Soul into the Dream Realm Pearl, carefully comprehending the disk’s contents.

This comprehension felt akin to a spiritual inheritance; although still esoteric, it was far better than comprehending the Great Dao of Time from scratch.

People always say there are three thousand Great Daos, eight hundred side paths, time reigns supreme, space rules as king, destiny unspoken, causality as sovereign.

Xia Feng wasn’t entirely versed in the Great Dao of Space, and now he faced an even more advanced Great Dao of Time.

He could only rely on time to hone his mastery.

He embedded his Divine Sense into the disk, intricately understanding how the Great Dao of Time enveloped his Divine Sense, continuously swirling, attempting to drag him into the river of time.

Xia Feng’s expression was temporarily dazed; after retracting his Divine Sense from the disk, his entire demeanor seemed somewhat unfocused.
