God Emperor - Chapter 1508

Chapter 1508: Absolute Saint

“Time valuable?”

Demonic Sound’s eyes gleamed, and she couldn’t help walking toward it.

It was a legendary time valuable. Everyone wanted to obtain it.

Zhang Ruochen held her and said, “Stop walking forward. The flow of time must be very quick here, which is why we can hear the water-flowing sound. Don’t you remember many monks were killed by the time formation when we were fighting for the Merits Record Wall?”

Demonic Sound was dazed. She stopped and asked, “Is there time formation around here?”

Zhang Ruochen opened his heavenly eyes, and he saw the time marks around the sundial, and all the time marks were still very active.

The power of time here was more terrific than the time formation.

Zhang Ruochen and Demonic Sound might’ve aged to death before they could even get close to the sundial.

“Anywhere less twelve hundred feet away from the sundial is forbidden to us,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Demonic Sound said, “You also practice time way, my lord. Even you can’t suppress the power of time here? That sundial is obviously an incredible ancient weapon. If you’re not getting it, you might regret it forever.”

There was no way Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to get the sundial.

However, he knew much better than Demonic Sound how terrifying the sundial was, so he couldn’t be more intimidated by it.

“I’ll try.”

Zhang Ruochen carefully stepped forward and stopped when he was only twelve hundred feet away from the sundial.

After he took another step forward, time mark spots flew out of the sundial.

Every time mark spot could strip a creature of more than ten years of their lives, and if someone was hit by a great many spots, he or she might age to death immediately.

Whoosh!

Zhang Ruochen performed Sword Technique of Time to knock the time mark light spots away, however, those light spots kept coming at him, and he couldn’t ward all of them off.

After five seconds, Zhang Ruochen was hit by three time mark light spots, losing fifty years of his life.

Zhang Ruochen had to retreat. He said, “Impressive, this is impressive. The third-level power of Sword Technique of Time is nothing compared to the sundial. I’ll only stand a chance if I can finish refining the fourth level, Zhoutian Sword Technique.”

Zhoutian Sword Technique was way more intricate than Twelve Hours Sword Technique. It’d take him forever to finish practicing it.

It wasn’t possible for him to take the sundial away.

However, this was the best place for him to comprehend the time way. Perhaps he could seize this chance to refine time rules so that he could become an absolute saint.

Zhang Ruochen gave Demonic Sound an instruction, asking her to guard him. And then, he walked to only twelve hundred feet away from the sundial, sat down, and listened to the flow of time.

The flow of time contained time way, and it wasn’t every day that he could hear it.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen seemed to have recalled something. He took out a Honghua Vine that was six inches long from his space ring and put it on the ground. Suddenly, a ball of flames showed up around his fingers.

“Can Red Flower Vine really help monks comprehend saintly way rules?”

Zhang Ruochen was also curious, so he wanted to seize this chance to try it.

The Honghua Vine looked like a seven-color diffuser, and it gave out very dim fragrance, permeating the space.

Zhang Ruochen became much more shrewd when he inhaled that as the flow of the water stream was clearer to him. He could better distinguish the norms and meters of the sound.

“It’s indeed helpful. My senses and comprehension were both improved. It’s an incredible object indeed.” Zhang Ruochen was pleased.

However, the Honghua Vine was an assistive object after all. He needed to comprehend time way himself.

Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes and listened to the sound closely. Soon, he reached the mysterious realm.

It seemed that he was sitting at the top of the stream, and the water was flowing under him. He then reached out his hand and tried to carry the water, yet the water flowed through his palm.

There seemed to be tens of millions of holes on his palm, and there was no way he could carry the water.

“Is that time? I can’t even capture it.”

Zhang Ruochen stopped trying to catch the time. He concentrated on listening to the sound of water and feeling the melodies of the water as if he had merged with the stream.

Zhang Ruochen suddenly woke up, and he found that he had sunk into the brook almost completely.

But then, he rejoiced.

“I understand now. I need to merge with time first if I want to control it.”

Zhang Ruochen kept sinking, and the water drowned his mouth, his nose, and then his ears, eyes, and forehead…

The time mark light spots around the sundial echoed with the power around Zhang Ruochen, flying toward him.

Those light spots flew into Zhang Ruochen’s forehead and into his lower abdomen, integrating with the time rule in Heaven Pass River.

The time rule became more and more solid, giving out blazing light.

After merging with sixty-three time mark light spots, the time rule finally evolved, reaching ‘absolute and true’ level.

Bang!

A rumbling sound came out of Zhang Ruochen’s body.

The saint Qi flowed several times faster in his meridians and saint meridians, absorbing the heaven and earth saint Qi around him. The saint Qi in the seven-colored saint Qi kept rushing into Zhang Ruochen’s forehead like water.

“Congratulations on becoming an absolute saint, my lord. Nobody can rival you in the Merits Battle anymore.” Demonic Sound congratulated Zhang Ruochen, making a bow.

Zhang Ruochen stood up and spread his arms, and then, saintly way rules gushed out of his body, and behind him formed a golden phantom which was thousands of feet tall.

It was the Absolute and True Phantom.

Triggering Absolute and True Phantom meant that he could trigger the rules of heaven and earth, and he was able to mobilize part of the power of the heaven and earth.

“Absolute and True Phantom is indeed extraordinary.”

Zhang Ruochen pushed his hands forward, and then, the space made a cracking sound.

After flaunting it for a while, Zhang Ruochen put back his Absolute and True Phantom.

“My life expectancy grows a thousand years.”

Zhang Ruochen had strong enough mind power to deduce his life expectancy. Because of his sanctified body and God’s destiny, Zhang Ruochen knew that his life expectancy was way higher than normal saints, as he could live for more than a thousand years.

But now, he figured that he could live for more than two thousand years.

In Kunlun’s Field, even ninth-step saint kings would find it impossible to live for two thousand years.

In Heaven World, the refining environment was way better than that of Kunlun’s Field, however, human saints still found it very difficult to live past one thousand years. Only seventh-step saint kings and those who were stronger could live for two thousand years.

Which meant his life expectancy was only second to supreme saints even if his cultivation never advanced.

“How?”

Zhang Ruochen recalled and looked to the sundial in the distance.

“Lots of time mark light spots spread out of the sundial when I became an absolute saint, and they went into my lower abdomen. Could that sundial both slash and improve the life expectancy of a monk?”

Zhang Ruochen was astounded.

A time valuable like that was incredible.

If he managed to understand how it worked, then he could increase his life expectancy any time and become immortal.

Zhang Ruochen walked toward the sundial again, but he was hit by several time mark light spots the second he was less than twelve hundred feet away from.

“I can’t. That sundial is just bizarre.”

Even if Zhang Ruochen could live for two thousand years, he would still age to death immediately if he tried to get the sundial by force.

Zhang Ruochen tried several times, but they all ended in failure, and he lost two hundred years of life.

“There’s still a long way to go on my time way.”

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and took Demonic Sound away. Looking for the Ice and Fire Phoenix and God’s Starry Soul was the important thing.

He would come back for the sundial if he still had time after seizing those two.

The seven-colored space in the Phoenix Nest was enormous, so it’d take him a long time to find the inheritance of the Ice and Fire Phoenix. Perhaps Mu Lingxi could have better senses given her Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint Body.

Zhang Ruochen took out the Monument Shield and let Mu Lingxi out of the space crystal.

Mu Lingxi had been refining in the time and space crystal the entire time, and she had become an absolute saint.

Mu Lingxi didn’t have the restraints from time rules and space rules like Zhang Ruochen, and she experienced a faster flow of time in the crystal and enjoyed the help of valuables like Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow, so it was very easy for her to become an absolute saint.

“Is this the Phoenix Nest?”

“That’s right.”

Mu Lingxi learned about what had happened from Zhang Ruochen and the special environment in the Phoenix Nest. She nodded and said, “Let me have a try.”

Mu Lingxi closed her eyes, mobilized her saint Qi, and then a gleaming phoenix mark showed up on her forehead.

Suddenly, the temperature around them dropped sharply.

Whoosh!

A giant phantom of an Ice Phoenix rushed out of Mu Lingxi’s back, and it looked exactly like a real phoenix. Its feathers were gleaming, and its wings looked like two colorful clouds.

That was Mu Lingxi’s Absolute and True Shadow which contained the saintly way rules of the phoenix race.

The phantom of the Ice Phoenix flew in a certain direction.

Mu Lingxi opened her eyes, smiled and said, “I’ve sensed something. Let’s go that way.”
