Chapter 1460: Returning to the Tai Chu Continent!

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the spell technique: Time Stop.

[Upon using Time Stop, all time within a kilometer radius of the host will come to a stop. Once the effect of Time Stop concludes, the time within that area would reintegrate with the absolute flow of time of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

[Note: If the opponent is more powerful than the host or has far exceeded the host in their observation of time, then they will be resistant to the effect of the Time Stop spell technique.

[At the host’s current power level, you can stop time for a second.]

An Lin faltered momentarily before grumbling to himself, “One second? That’s way too short!”

His voice had only just fallen when extremely terrifying true intent began to flow into his mind!

This was the first time An Lin had received a time-type spell technique, and the massive amount of information influx almost made his head explode! The massive amount of information being injected into his mind was no less fearsome than the Heaven Crushing Techniques!

He only managed to completely grasp the Time Stop technique after a long while.

It was also at this moment that he discovered just how awesome this technique was!

What could he do in a second?

He could do a lot of things! For example, he could swing his sword hundreds or even thousands of times!

In a battle between mighty figures, just an instant could completely flip the tables!

Time Stop was quite similar to a spatial seal in that both of them were capable of immobilizing an opponent. The difference was that targets affected by a spatial seal were indeed immobilized, but they still retained their cognitive functions and were capable of offering resistance. Those with potent spatial power could even break through a spatial seal inflicted upon them.

However, Time Stop was much more terrifying because it was true immobilization of both the body and the mind. That one second of time simply did not exist to the target, so there was no way they could find a method to resist.

Time Stop had undoubtedly become An Lin’s second most powerful trump card below the powers of the Heavenly Gods!

After another two days.

The thirty-day time limit was up.

The Heavenly Time God’s residual heavenly time power finally dissipated.

An Lin was a little disappointed. It would be awesome if the Heavenly Time God hadn’t self-detonated and was killed by him instead. How bad*ss would he be if he were to attain the power of the heavenly time god?

Eh…

It seemed like he wouldn’t be able to defeat Chen Chen no matter how powerful he became.

An Lin: “…”

Bam bam bam…

Splashed appeared over the surface of the river.

Everyone returned to shore at a predetermined time.

“I’ve found a special way to inject my power into the images and sense the auras of the worlds within… I feel like I’ll be able to identify an image of the Tai Chu Continent instantly with this power should I encounter one!” the Celestial Thearch said with excitement on his face.

Everyone was overjoyed to hear this.

“After analyzing the special characteristics and properties of countless images, I can roughly determine that an image of the Tai Chu Continent would appear in about fifty days,” Chen Chen contributed.

Their findings made everyone extremely excited.

This meant that they would have a chance to escape after about fifty days!

“I’ve also noticed something. The images in the river are gradually flowing more quickly. If the image of the Tai Chu Continent is going to appear fifty days from now, then we might have less than a second to enter the image,” An Lin analyzed.

Everyone instantly fell silent.

Chen Chen and the others all stared at him with astonishment and incredulity.

“Why are all of you looking at me like that?” An Lin felt like he was being discriminated against.

“You actually analyzed the river of time?” Meng Zhi was shocked.

“You’re not going to burp anymore?” The Celestial Thearch wore a quizzical expression.

“Did you not have enough to eat?” Shangguan Yi asked with a concerned and gentle expression.

An Lin: “…”

“What kind of person do you think I am? Am I the type of person who thinks about nothing but eating every day?” An Lin’s expression darkened.

Everyone looked at An Lin with an expression that said, “Is that not the case?”

“You’ve been burping for an entire month, so it’s actually quite strange for us now that you’re not burping.” Shangguan Yi chuckled.

An Lin clasped a hand over his aching heart.

He paused momentarily before speaking in an earnest voice, “Alright, I’ll give up on absorbing more power for the sake of all of you. From this day forth, I will give it my all to help us return to the Tai Chu Continent!”

“That’s great! We finally have a new addition to our party!” The Celestial Thearch applauded.

Everyone joined in with raucous applause of their own.

An Lin felt like a sword had been stabbed into his heart. So, they hadn’t even been treating him as a member of the party before now?!

He was working hard to absorb the heavenly time power in order to awaken his new spell technique as soon as possible, in case it could help them get out of here! After all, this was a space that was related to the Heavenly Time God.

He was doing all of this for his comrades!

An Lin heaved a forlorn sigh. Perhaps all of his comrades would understand with time that he was doing all of this for their sake.

Thus, the Celestial Thearch, Chen Chen, An Lin, Meng Zhi, the Great Empress, and Shangguan Yi entered the river of time again to look for more patterns and leads.

Time continued to pass by.

Everyone became more and more prepared.

Everyone’s cultivation base had also improved drastically due to the exceptional cultivation environment here.

In particular, Shangguan Yi had attained her divine dao and successfully summoned the power of the Ice Matriarch. In other words, she was already a mighty figure at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage!

With the power of the Ice Matriarch that she could summon, she was capable of standing up to a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure for a short time.

From this day forth, all snow maidens would concede to Shangguan Yi’s bloodline, even the Great Empress and Meng Zhi were no exception to this.

This was an event that was worthy of celebration. The fact that Shangguan Yi was able to make a breakthrough here and summon the power of the Ice Matriarch, which was left at the Tai Chu Continent, indicated that this space was actually connected to the Tai Chu Continent. They could use an image in this world to escape this space!

If it wasn’t for the fact that they had no idea when the image of the Tai Chu Continent would appear again, all of them wanted to stay here and cultivate a while longer.

Being able to cultivate at several hundred times their original speed was like being in heaven!

Soon, Chen Chen estimated that the day the image of the Tai Chu Continent was going to appear was going to arrive soon.

The six of them stood beside the river, looking at all of the images flashing past with rapt attention. Everyone was very tense as their opportunity would only present itself for a split second.

Soon, everyone saw an extremely peculiar image.

Darkness covered almost the entire image, and countless humans in white robes howled with anguish amid the vast expanse of dark energy. All of them were in excruciating pain and seemed to have been driven insane, to the point that they were tearing away at their own bodies…

“That’s the uniform of our Heavenly Court execution department!”

The Celestial Thearch’s expression became thunderously dark upon seeing this, as if he were a volcano that was about to erupt.

At this moment, a white spot appeared on the image.

This was a passageway into that world. Chen Chen had forcefully opened it up for everyone.

Boom boom boom…

All of a sudden, heaven and earth fell silent.

The seconds-in-command of both the Heaven Crushing Sect and the Heaven Mending Sect, the High Priestess of the snow maidens, the Great Empress, the Ice Matriarch, and An Lin all unleashed their most powerful attacks!

Terrifying spell techniques destroyed heaven and earth!

Their combined power was enough to instantly reduce an entire continent to dust!

Crack…

A crack appeared on the image, from within which faint spatial power emanated.

“Go!” Chen Chen roared.

All six of them flew into the crack on the image at the same time!
