Chapter 412 – Time and Space
The elder’s gaze fell on Long Tianming as he noncommittally replied, “Oh? So that’s the case.”
Long Tianming changed the topic, “I harvested quite a few spiritual stones this time, just enough to expand my forces. I sent quite a few Heavenly Axis Realm experts to Gu Heng earlier, but even still, he couldn’t accomplish it. But regardless, we can’t allow Gu Bei’s Demon League to grow any stronger. I must obtain the Sect Master position!”
The grey-robed elder responded in a cold voice, “I will help you ascend to the Sect Master’s position. But don’t forget what you’ve promised me!”
“I definitely won’t!” Long Tianming smiled.
While Gu Bei and co. were busy dealing with Gu Heng, they were completely unaware that someone already had their eyes on them.
Within the Myriad Miles Rivers and Mountains Painting
Nie Li was still focusing on his cultivation. The violent and vigorous Heavenly Energy continued to rush into his soul realm.
The amount of Heavenly Energy within the Myriad Miles Rivers and Mountains Painting was enormous and infinite.
Days passed. Thanks to the Primordial Bloodline, Nie Li didn’t need to worry as he absorbed the Heavenly Energy. His soul realm continued to expand, and it felt like it was constantly being rent apart. The intense pain turned his face pale and beads of sweat dripped from his forehead. The Heavenly Energy tried to rupture his body.
*Boom!*
It seemed as if his soul realm had erupted.
*Buzzz!*
Nie Li entered a strange, but wonderful, state of mind. He sensed the vine in his soul realm growing larger and larger, like a massive tree reaching towards the sky. It continued to spread its branches, one line after another, as mysterious flowers bloomed in numbers.
Each flower bloomed with flawless white petals. The petals themselves had continuously snowed down.
Their fragrance permeated him, like a spring field filled with fresh flowers.
Nie Li vaguely sensed that in the space underneath the vine, time and space were stagnant.
In that manner, he sat below the vine and cultivated, continuously condensing his cultivation as time rapidly flowed around him.
A month passed in an instant. Inside Nie Li’s dantian, the third fate star formed.
Nie Li remained seated.
Three months later, the fourth star appeared.
He sat like a stone statue, silent and without movement. Nie Li’s concept of time had ceased entirely.
Six months later, the fifth fate star lit up within his soul realm.
A *Boom!* sounded in his mind, waking him from his trance. He was stunned for only a brief moment, before opening his eyes. This was bad. He never thought he’d end up cultivating inside the Myriad Miles Rivers and Mountains Painting for such a long period of time!
Six months had passed. Nie Li wondered how Lu Piao, Gu Bei, and the others were doing.
He opened his eyes and saw Xiao Yu staring at him.
