Primordial Era: I, Yuan Hong, am solely focused on stability; humanity remains clear-headed.

Chapter 8: A Hundredfold Increase in Time Flow, an Unbelievable Cultivation Speed! Divine Power Achieved Perfection!

"A single mark can take me across time and space, through the primordial world; it's truly incredible."

"As expected of the most mysterious Chaos Treasure."

Yuan Hong toyed with the gray stone bead in his hand and sighed.

The other three Chaos Treasures are dedicated to different tasks: offense, defense, and enlightenment. Their roles are clearly defined and their functions are distinct.

But this Chaos Pearl is indeed very mysterious.

At present, it seems to be related to spacetime abilities!

"However, although my Chaos Pearl has been inscribed with a core mark, it is still incomplete. I will have to collect all the fragments in the future."

Yuan Hong thought to himself.

The other fragments of the Chaos Pearl have transformed into various precious pearl-like spiritual treasures throughout the primordial world.

For example, the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, the Five Elements Spirit Pearl, etc., could all be fragments of the Chaos Pearl!

Of course, there's no rush. The Chaos Pearl fragment in his hand is already a main body, possessing a true treasure restriction, which is enough for him now!

Yuan Hong poured his magical power into it, striving to refine it.

The Chaos Pearl has nine layers of restrictions. Only when one's cultivation reaches a certain level can the corresponding layer of restrictions be opened!

Each additional layer of restriction will drastically change its abilities and functions.

"It also has the function of concealing heavenly secrets, not bad, not bad."

Before he could even begin refining the restriction, Yuan Hong had already acquired this ability.

This ability to conceal the secrets of heaven is inherent to the Chaos Pearl, essentially a passive skill.

Whether or not the restriction is lifted, one can gain the ability to conceal one's own secrets!

In the vast and primordial world, its significance is self-evident.

These days, which powerful cultivator doesn't have the ability to deduce the secrets of heaven?

Those with great supernatural powers can often know everything with just a few calculations. Who wouldn't be wary of them?

Therefore, having such a treasure to conceal the secrets of heaven is extremely necessary.

In this way, even if we have more secrets in the future, we won't be afraid of being figured out by others.

In particular, this is an ability granted by a Chaos Treasure, almost equivalent to the ability of the highest authority, so it's reliable enough!

Even a sage of the Heavenly Dao could not deduce the information that Yuan Hong wanted to hide.

This feature alone is already incredible.

Each layer of restriction corresponds to a specific ability.

As long as one's cultivation level is sufficient, the corresponding restrictions can be successfully broken.

"My current cultivation level is sufficient to unlock the first level."

Yuan Hong broke through the first layer of restrictions without encountering any obstacles!

"The first layer of restriction grants a hundredfold increase in the speed of time flow?"

Upon seeing this feature, Yuan Hong was shocked and stunned.

Treasures that can accelerate the flow of time seem to be unheard of in the primordial world, let alone accelerate it a hundredfold.

Yuan Hong immediately realized the immense value of this ability.

Increasing the flow of time by a hundredfold is equivalent to increasing the overall cultivation speed by a hundredfold!

This was extremely important to him.

To gain sufficient cultivation strength before the Great Tribulation of Gods, a considerable amount of time will certainly be required.

However, the Chaos Pearl's power accelerated his cultivation a hundredfold.

"My speed in comprehending two divine abilities has also increased a thousandfold, and with the addition of a hundredfold increase in time flow, it's equivalent to a hundred thousandfold increase!!"

"Oh right, and my Enlightenment Flower, it's probably going to give me a thousandfold boost."

"Moreover, I am a mid-level innate deity, and my comprehension is far superior to that of innate beings. In general, my cultivation speed is probably a billion times faster than that of beings of the same level..."

"hiss!"

When Yuan Hong thought of this, he himself gasped in shock.

He became more and more excited as he thought about it, and couldn't help but take out the Enlightenment Flower, preparing to practice on the spot.

This Enlightenment Flower, as a mid-grade innate spiritual root, only blooms once every three thousand years, and only one flower blooms at a time. It is extremely precious and has great benefits even for Great Luo Golden Immortals!

To say that it increased Yuan Hong's speed of enlightenment a thousandfold is no exaggeration, and may even be an understatement.

Yuan Hong immediately sat down to meditate and began to comprehend the supernatural power of "discerning good and bad fortune".

The Chaos Pearl possesses extremely high intrinsic value. Once activated, it can automatically maintain a time flow rate of 100 times, eliminating the need for any effort to maintain it!

At this moment, the Enlightenment Flower floated in front of him, emitting faint rays of spiritual light.

These spiritual lights were the light of enlightenment, extremely gentle, as if they were directly falling into his primordial spirit, making Yuan Hong's mind extremely clear.

My previous confusion about spiritual practice became clear in an instant, and I sorted things out in a short period of time.

Even the difficult parts become clear after a moment's thought, and there are no further obstacles.

"The Enlightenment Flower is incredibly powerful..."

A thought flashed through Yuan Hong's mind: his current ability to comprehend the Dao has probably far surpassed that of a Golden Immortal.

The comprehension of a mid-level innate saint is already formidable, and with the added blessing of a spiritual root for enlightenment, such an effect can be achieved.

And so he began to immerse himself in the study of supernatural powers.

Even the "Discerning Good and Bad Fortune" supernatural power, once perfected, contains increasingly difficult-to-understand profound principles. Even ordinary Golden Immortals, after comprehending it, would probably find it as if they were reading a heavenly book.

However, Yuan Hong was still able to make progress little by little and move clearly toward the next step.

Moreover, the hundredfold increase in the flow of time, coupled with the thousandfold amplification of the supernatural power itself, made his comprehension speed incredibly fast!

Even so, it took Yuan Hong an unknown amount of time to completely comprehend it.

"Perfect state achieved!"

One day, Yuan Hong opened his eyes, a deep look flashing across them, as if he could understand the mysteries of fortune and misfortune, unfathomable and profound.

His supernatural powers have reached the perfect level!

He sighed leisurely; comprehending this supernatural power was indeed not easy.

With his exceptional comprehension, such exaggerated amplification techniques, and the considerable time it took him to achieve perfection, he still managed to comprehend it.

If it were any other cultivator, even a Golden Immortal or a Taiyi Golden Immortal, even if they spent a million years comprehending, they would absolutely not be able to comprehend it to perfection!

"The 'Discerning Good and Bad Fortune' divine ability at its perfect level is more than a thousand times more powerful than that at the Great Completion level; it's more than enough to ensure my safety!"

Yuan Hong stood up, preparing to leave and continue his cultivation.

Although the ability to discern good and bad fortune cannot be used in battle, it is rare in the world when it comes to seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, and many great cultivators cannot compare to it!

This is much safer than a perfected fighting technique.

"Moreover, it is still the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and the great calamity has not yet occurred, so overall it is still relatively safe."

"Taking advantage of this opportunity to travel and quickly improve one's strength is the best strategy."

Yuan Hong made his decision and immediately left the now barren, small paradise to begin his long journey.

He didn't have a specific destination; he just traveled along instinctively.

And so, without realizing it, Yuan Hong arrived at the shore of the primordial East Sea.

At this time, the world was in the era of the Earthly Sovereign, a time of great prosperity for the human race.

As the human race expanded its territory, there were many frictions between them and the myriad races of the primordial world.

In the region along the coast of the East China Sea, the human race and many races under the Dragon Clan, such as the Merfolk and the Shrimp-Crab Clan, constantly clashed and harbored grudges against each other.
