Sitting and forgetting longevity

Chapter 1914 Mutation
Above the sky, the two heavens almost overlapped. At this moment, dark clouds gathered, and lightning bolts occasionally streaked across the sky, outlining a heavy and enormous silhouette.

A chilling aura is quietly spreading, brewing an even greater storm.

Having endured countless vicissitudes and been relentlessly destroyed day and night by numerous demons within the tower, the barrier and laws once laid down by the Immortal Emperor Haotian are now riddled with holes and can no longer shield the Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, if Liu Qinghuan wanted to transcend the sixth level of the Mahayana illusory tribulation, he could do so within the tower. What he was concerned about was the time labyrinth he was currently in.

The Realm of Time is far more complex and unpredictable than other secret realms; anything strange can happen, and it's hard to say whether it will affect his tribulation.

Moreover, if he were to undergo tribulation now, he would also implicate the Dream Soul Tree.

He didn't care if the Dream Soul Tree was killed, but he couldn't withstand the increased power of the Heavenly Tribulation caused by it.

After thinking it over, Liu Qinghuan decisively withdrew her hand, severing the connection with the Dream Soul Tree crystal core.

But the next moment, his expression changed drastically!
That thread of connection could not be severed!

Even after he withdrew his hand, the powerful wood energy continued to flow from the crystal core, surging into his meridians like a tidal wave.

The mental technique, when practiced to its fullest potential, cannot be stopped at will. Each time you finish practicing, it is a slow process, like a sluice gate that needs to be opened and closed slowly and evenly. If you close it abruptly, there is a risk of the water clogging the gate and causing it to collapse.

However, the dantian had reached its limit and could no longer hold any more magical power.

To make the dantian larger, one must undergo the tempering of heavenly lightning and break through the current realm.

Even the Creation Bottle couldn't help him at this point.

After being whipped for a long time, the Dream Soul Tree seemed to give up and stopped releasing its divine sense. The tree spirit hid and stopped showing itself, allowing Liu Qinghuan to absorb its crystal core.

More and more spiritual energy accumulated in his meridians. As the cultivation method forcibly poured it into his dantian, Liu Qinghuan could no longer hide his pain. He felt as if his whole body was about to burst!
There must be some reason he doesn't yet understand that prevents him from stopping absorbing the crystal cores, but the most important thing right now is how to solve the problem of his body exploding.

The tribulation clouds high in the sky grew thicker and thicker, just like his meridians and dantian at this moment.

Liu Qinghuan gritted her teeth: Since we can't cut it, then let's do it!
It's just a fleeting calamity, let it come!
With a "crack", a bolt of azure lightning struck down!
The majestic Dream Tree was the first to be struck, lightning piercing through its trunk and exploding in all directions.

Under the dim light, every branch and leaf was covered with a layer of dancing electric light, revealing every detail.

Liu Qinghuan was suddenly jolted, as if the power of thunder had split open his forehead, flowed throughout his body, entered his dantian along his meridians, and then exploded in his dantian!

His vision went black, and the pain almost made him faint.

While he was in a daze, the speed at which the wood energy surged in suddenly increased, rushing into his dantian wildly.

Liu Qinghuan was surprised to find that he could continue absorbing crystal cores!

The heavenly tribulation showed no signs of continuing; after striking with lightning, it ceased its attack, except that the tribulation clouds remained stubbornly thick and heavy.

"Weird!"

Could it be because of the time maze?

Liu Qinghuan couldn't help but wonder whether she should be surprised or happy.

How can one break through in cultivation without experiencing a heavenly tribulation?

His current cultivation level must have broken through the fifth level of Mahayana and reached the early stage of the sixth level.

The lightning bolt from before was still raging within his dantian, causing his spiritual sea to surge violently, and each time it struck the dantian wall, it would cause a sharp pain.

Then, his dantian seems to grow a little bigger.

Liu Qinghuan had never seen such heavenly tribulation lightning before, but since she could continue cultivating, it was a good thing. She still had more than half of the Dream Soul Tree's crystal core left; once she absorbed it all, she should be able to reach the mid-stage of the sixth level!

The sky pressed lower and lower, and the tribulation clouds covered almost every corner. The aura of the heavenly tribulation was intense and heavy, neither descending nor dissipating, making this area even more unapproachable.

The Dream Tree, like a beautiful woman in her twilight years, grew thinner and thinner, its leaves becoming increasingly withered and yellow, and it never bloomed again.

……

Time is extremely mysterious and enigmatic.

Within the time labyrinth, the flow of time is quite chaotic, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, but those within it rarely notice it.

While Liu Qinghuan was engrossed in cultivation, the Time Beasts he had been waiting for finally arrived, and six or seven of them came at once.

They seem to have traversed a long period of time and emerged from a suddenly appearing cave of light, standing in a row with considerable imposing presence.

One of the Time Beasts had a monkey-like face, a tall and powerful body, and thick sideburns covering its entire body. It was none other than Kun Yu, who had given the inscription to Liu Qinghuan.

The goat-headed, horse-bodied Time Beast beside it spoke first: "How come time flows so fast here!"

Kun Yu held a compass-shaped magical artifact, and seeing the pointer spinning rapidly, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his eyes.

"It seems that the situation in this Time Realm is more complicated than expected, and is on the verge of getting out of control."

“Yes, if someone hadn’t sent a message, we wouldn’t have even noticed!” said another Time Beast.

“It’s not entirely our fault. There might be a divine artifact of destiny in this place. This realm won’t appear on the timeline unless there’s a specific anchor point of destiny, so we can’t find it even if we want to,” Kun Yu said. “We should still be able to salvage this situation, but we need to act quickly.”

It put away its compass and looked ahead.

Two layers of sky overlapped, and the black tribulation clouds turned this world almost into night. The Dream Soul Tree shrouded in the tribulation clouds made Kun Yu raise his eyebrows.

"The inscription is here, so it seems our human cultivator friend is right here, but he seems to be very busy right now."

As it spoke, its eyes shone with a strange light, like two long tunnels leading to an extremely distant place.

A moment later, the light dissipated, and Kun Yu turned to the remaining Time Beasts and said:

"His double tribulation is about to arrive, and it will be quite some time before he overcomes it. Let's each do our own thing and carefully explore this place to find out the reason for the disorder of the laws."

Soon, the Time Beasts discussed their plan and each chose a direction to leave.

Except for one Time Beast with heterochromia, which kept staring blankly at the sky.

Kun Yu stopped and asked, "Yuan Feng, what did you see?"

Yuan Feng withdrew his gaze. It was short in stature with long, slender limbs, but had a human face that was extremely rare among Time Beasts.

It spoke, its voice a soft, ethereal female voice: "I have seen several futures."

Kun Yu was startled, his expression turning extremely serious: "Are you sure?"

For the Time Beast, there is no difference between the past and the future; they are both things that have already happened.

Now that it has already happened, all possibilities and uncertainties have been eliminated, ultimately converging into a single timeline, which is the world's only destiny.

When this single point becomes unclear, and the future becomes several lines, it indicates a major problem; they're in deep trouble!
