I started by enhancing cancer cells and uniquely obtained the Godhood Sequence.

"Whoosh—!"

"I...I've broken through?"

As a burst of sword energy spread out around him, Bai Ye, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed absorbing energy and repairing his injuries, slowly opened his eyes and looked at himself.

Not only have the wounds completely healed, but the rank has also been promoted.

He advanced directly from the initial peak of Tier 3 to the mid-tier realm.

Not only that, his domain talent has also been completely upgraded, and the previous legendary item [Endless Sea] has been completely integrated with his domain skill.

Although the display on the domain panel didn't change much, he could clearly feel that the domain technique had been enhanced!

Moreover, he had not yet fully digested the immense life energy within his body.

Bai Ye glanced at the arena in front of him. Many powerful figures from Blue Star had already stepped onto the arena and chosen different stone slabs as their trial subjects, each fighting in their respective arena.

Upon noticing several of the arena bosses, his pupils contracted slightly, and he felt an overwhelming pressure.

"Such a powerful aura! It's even more overwhelming than the shadow knight I faced before!"

He was utterly horrified; it turned out that the opponent he had chosen was not very strong after all.

At least, several figures on the arena are stronger than that shadow knight.

Seeing this, Bai Ye took a deep breath, feeling a strong sense of urgency.

What time is it now?

How much time is left until the end of the Battle of All Races?

Countless questions arose in his mind. He couldn't see the passage of time on the panel, and he had just gone into seclusion, so his perception of time was almost zero.

Just then, Lin Mo seemed to sense his doubt and said:

"Don't worry about time; in the Eternal Challenge, time will be frozen."

"So you can stay here as long as you like."

"Your time does not change, nor does the time in the outside world."

Lin Mo paused for a moment, then said, "If you want to know how long you spent in seclusion, I can tell you, in the context of normal external currents..."

He glanced at the area beneath the furnace:

"Three years, two months, and twelve days."

Three years!!!

Bai Ye, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, stood there stunned, his mouth slightly open, unsure of what to say.

He only went into seclusion once, how could it have lasted this long?

But upon closer inspection of the arena, it seemed that his companions' condition had indeed changed, especially before he went into seclusion to recover from his injuries.

Lin Mo said, "You are in seclusion, and since there is no concept of the passage of time here, your senses are naturally not very clear."

After hearing this, Bai Ye was initially a little nervous, but then she remembered what Lin Mo had just said about the absence of time here, and then she relaxed a little.

A layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. If this happened outside, three years would have passed in a single seclusion. Wouldn't he have missed many important milestones on Earth?

Moreover, Earth is currently facing numerous crises, and if I were to miss those battles, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call myself a sinner for all time.

Thankfully, there's still time.

Moreover, judging from Lin Mo's condition, they will be staying here for a long time.

Bai Ye tentatively asked, "Lin Shen, how much longer are we going to stay here? I mean, the kind of time that flows at the normal rate of time in the outside world."

Lin Mo's gaze remained fixed on the depths of the furnace, lost in thought. After a moment, he gave his answer:

"One hundred years, that's the longest you can endure."

Although time doesn't flow here, it doesn't mean that staying here will come without any consequences.

It could even be said that entering this furnace comes at a price.

A normal time flow of one hundred years is roughly the upper limit that Bai Ye and the others can withstand.

If you insist on staying here when the time comes, you will eventually become nourishment for this furnace, enslaved by those ancient stone slabs, and never be able to break free.

Bai Ye was stunned when he heard about the timeframe of one hundred years.

So long?

It's no wonder he was so surprised; before the Eternal Kingdom came, he was only in his thirties or forties.

At this moment, the Eternal Kingdom has only been established for a few years, and if calculated according to human age, he is not even 40 years old.

Are we really going to have to stay here for a hundred years?

Previously, the Eternal Kingdom descended to protect the fellow countrymen in the newbie zone, and to PK and compete with players from various war zones. Finally, the War of All Races descended, and players entered the battlefield to fight against powerful alien races, engage in life-or-death duels with battlefield monsters, and resist the Ice Fang Clan...

Step by step, time always feels very tight, and there's never enough time.

This adds up to a hundred years, and to be honest, he's not quite used to it yet.

"So, it seems like we have plenty of time?"

Bai Ye felt a sense of relief.

However, he soon realized he was overthinking things.

After confirming that there was enough time, Bai Ye once again went into seclusion.

When he woke up again, it was ten years later.

"What?! I've been in seclusion for a full ten years this time!"

He asked Luo Lianzhi beside him in disbelief.

Luo Lianzhi looked speechless and said:

"Brother, I was worried you'd starve to death while you were in seclusion, but Lin Shen said that the Eternal Spring has plenty of life energy, so there's no need to worry about replenishing your energy."

After saying that, she reached out and touched Bai Ye's forehead:

"Brother, say something! Have you gone mad from staying cooped up like this?"

Bai Ye shook his head slightly, finally snapping out of his shock:

"No, I'm just surprised that my two periods of seclusion actually took thirteen years!"

Luo Lianzhi said:

"To be precise, it's thirteen years, eight months, and twenty-one days!"

"I'm in charge of keeping track of the current time flow, and I guarantee I haven't misremembered a single second!"

After she finished explaining, Bai Ye finally understood the current division of labor.

Simply put, challenging the stone slab has now become the norm for many powerful individuals on Earth.

As for those who go into seclusion like Bai Ye, there are actually quite a few.

For example, people like Yuna and Joshua would go into seclusion from time to time.

Therefore, calculating the flow rate of time naturally requires a division of labor and cooperation.

Whoever is still working on the stone slab and hasn't gone into seclusion will be next.

For life forms at this level, the body itself is a sensitive timer; as long as they are conscious, they can naturally calculate exactly how much time has passed.

Bai Ye nodded, then asked another question:

"How do you carve that stone slab? Has anyone succeeded?"

Luo Lianzhi said with a smile:

"Of course!"

Bai Ye's eyes lit up: "Who?"

Luo Lianzhi said, "Of course it's Sister Mia! Who else could it be?"

Bai Ye wasn't surprised to hear this.

Aside from Lin Mo, Mia is undoubtedly the strongest.

"Hehe, besides Mia, Shining Knight also won!"

Just then, Luo Lianzhi spoke again, instantly putting Bai Ye at a heightened sense of urgency.
