Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 290 The Immense Advantage of the Time Palace and its Clone System Working Together

The Solar System, Earth.

That day, Yang Wu was sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, cultivating.

Suddenly—

"Your Highness!"

The deep voice of the guard commander, Field, rang in Yang Wu's ears.

"Hmm?" Yang Wu slowly opened his eyes and asked, "Field, is something the matter?"

"Your Highness!" Field, the captain of the guards outside the quiet room, hurriedly said, "King Longyu is waiting for you in the living room!"

"Finally here!" Yang Wu smiled and quickly got up to walk out of the quiet room.

Two years had passed since he sought help from his teacher, the Nine Swords Venerable. It seemed that the Jade King's visit to Earth this time was to bring him treasures such as the Time Palace.

Soon, Yang Wu brought Field into the living room.

At this moment, a stunningly beautiful woman with flowing purple hair, dressed in azure armor, was waiting in the living room.

The stunningly beautiful woman turned to look at Yang Wu as soon as he appeared.

"King Longyu!" Yang Wu greeted him with a smile.

"Yang Wu!" King Longyu nodded with a smile, handing over a silver world ring: "What the Venerable One commanded me to bring you is in this world!"

Yang Wu accepted the World Ring, and immediately probed it with a wisp of his spiritual power.

The space inside this world ring is not very large, with a diameter of only 10,000 kilometers.

In the center of this world, on the continent, there is a wooden house about one kilometer in circumference.

Yang Wu knew that the wooden house was the Time Palace.

Treasures like the Time Palace are usually created by the Lord of the Universe who has fully mastered the two fundamental laws of time and space.

Because the construction of the Time Palace relies more on achievements in the laws of time, the requirements for materials are not too high, so the construction cost of the Time Palace is not expensive.

The Time Palace that Nine Swords Venerable helped Yang Wu apply for, aside from the fact that it was built by the Lord of the Universe, its construction cost was probably only a few treasure points, roughly equivalent to the value of an ordinary treasure.

The most expensive part of the Time Palace is not its construction cost, but the energy consumption during its use.

Even operating at twice the normal time flow rate for hundreds of epochs, the resources consumed would already exceed the value of the Time Palace itself.

However, hundreds of epochs are not considered a very long time in the eyes of powerful beings with eternal lifespans.

"Thank you very much, Prince Longyu!" Yang Wu said with a smile. "You've really gone to a lot of trouble this time. I've already ordered a banquet to be prepared, please!"

"No need for that, I'm just following orders!"

Longyu Wang smiled slightly and said to Yang Wu, "Besides, I have some other matters to attend to this time. Now that the goods have been delivered, I'll take my leave!"

"This..." Yang Wu nodded and said, "Alright, I'll give it to King Longyu!"

"Your Highness, please wait!"

With a wave of his hand, King Longyu instantly teleported away and disappeared.

"The ability to teleport is so convenient!"

With a sigh, Yang Wu took the World Ring and returned to his meditation room.

After instructing everyone not to disturb him, Yang Wu entered the quiet room.

……

Within the world ring, which has a diameter of 10,000 kilometers, two figures suddenly appeared in front of the wooden house on the central continent.

One of the figures was wearing dark gold armor; it was Yang Wu. The other figure was six meters tall, with skin covered in scales and a curved horn between his eyebrows; it was Yang Wu's Yan Shen clan clone.

At this time, the Yan God Clan clone had already evolved to the ninth level of Domain Lord, and its life gene level had reached four times that of ordinary life genes in the universe.

Of course, in terms of combat strength alone, Yang Wu's true form is slightly superior.

After all, Yang Wu himself had already fused with ten Blood Crystals and become a Black Warrior.

After activating the power of Bloodlust, its basic strength alone is ten times that of the Flame God Clan's avatar.

"The Palace of Time!" Yang Wu murmured, looking at the wooden house in front of him.

The wooden house looked very ordinary overall, and even the interior was not decorated much; it was just a spacious hall.

"How to use the Time Chamber? Detailed instructions included?"

Yang Wu saw a line of text on the wooden house, and then a wisp of his spiritual power seeped into it.

The moment it penetrated, the spiritual imprint contained within the mental energy automatically merged into the wooden house, and the Time Palace instantly recognized it as its master.

"It's quite convenient!"

At the same time as the Time Palace recognized him as its master, a message was directly integrated into Yang Wu's consciousness.

This information describes in detail the Time Palace, which resembles a wooden house, that Yang Wu is looking at.

Although this Time Palace looks ordinary, it can accelerate the flow of time by up to a hundred times.

Of course, accelerating to a hundred times the speed consumes an astonishing amount of energy. Even with all of Yang Wu's current wealth, it would be impossible to maintain the Time Palace operating at a hundred times the time flow rate for a year.

The Time Palace is engraved with countless laws and secret patterns, which eventually formed the ability to accelerate the passage of time.

The time acceleration factor in this Time Palace can be divided into six levels.

These are two times, five times, ten times, twenty times, fifty times, and the highest time flow rate of one hundred times.

As the time flow rate increases, the energy consumed also increases exponentially.

"Give it a try!" Yang Wu waved his hand, and immediately a large number of Light God Source Crystals flew into a specific area inside the Time Palace.

Light God Source Crystal, Fire God Source Crystal, etc...

It is a crystal formed by the highly condensed power of immortality, which can be used to detonate and kill enemies, or as an energy source.

Actually, when the Machine Race designed crystals such as the Light God Crystal, they originally intended to provide pure and powerful energy for some large instruments. However, unexpectedly, many powerful beings discovered its wonderful uses during cosmic battles, turning various types of God Crystals into one-time explosive weapons.

After returning to Earth, Yang Wu had already sold all the Locke Divine Water he had obtained through his teacher, Nine Swords Venerable. In the end, Yang Wu reaped a fortune of 66 billion Chaos Units and exchanged it for points within the company.

These Light God Source Crystals were low-grade Light God Source Crystals that Yang Wu purchased from within the company.

Even with Yang Wu's current authority, a low-grade Light God Source Crystal comparable to the self-destruction of an immortal god would require 600,000 points to purchase, even after a discount.

In order to power the Time Palace, Yang Wu purchased a thousand low-grade Light God Source Crystals that were most suitable for the operation of the Time Palace.

The reason I didn't buy the high-grade Light God Source Crystal is because the low-grade Light God Source Crystal has the best cost performance.

In fact, if the values ​​are equal, the energy contained in the cosmic crystal has the highest cost-effectiveness.

Unfortunately, the energy level of the cosmic crystal was too low to sustain the operation of the Time Palace.

"Time Acceleration!"

After Yang Wu placed the energy source, his Earthling self and his Yan God Clan clone entered the Time Palace at the same time, and then began to make the Time Palace operate at ten times the time flow rate of the original universe.

hum!

An invisible, strange energy permeated the entire Time Palace. It was an energy fluctuation very similar to the fundamental law of time in the universe. Unfortunately, Yang Wu had not comprehended the law of time and did not understand it very well.

Yang Wu looked around and felt that the flow of time was constantly accelerating, eventually stopping at a stable stage.

"Ten times the speed of time flow?"

Immediately, Yang Wu's consciousness connected with the time simulator in his mind, silently sensing the changes in the time simulator.

About ten minutes later.

"Haha, that's great!"

Yang Wu burst into laughter, becoming incredibly excited!

Because he could clearly sense the changes on the time simulator, and the passage of time was synchronized with the flow of time within the Time Palace.

"Let's examine this more closely!" Yang Wu thought to himself, "Let's see if a single clone can actually use this time simulator!"

When Yang Wu went to the initial universe, he did not yet have a clone.

Recently, Yang Wu's two clones have been in the same time flow, so he is not sure whether the different time flow of the clones will affect the specific operating rules of the time simulator.

Whoosh!

Yang Wu's Earthling body instantly left the Time Palace, while the Yan God Clan clone remained inside the Time Palace with the original core.

Another ten minutes passed.

Yang Wu immediately had the Yan God Clan clone leave the Time Palace with the original core, while the Earthling's main body entered again.

……

After repeating this process several times, Yang Wu finally figured out some of the operating rules of the time simulator.

"This is truly a stroke of luck!" Yang Wu exclaimed excitedly.

Yang Wu discovered that the passage of time on the time simulator was controlled by his own will.

In other words, no matter where the original core is, as long as Yang Wu has a wisp of consciousness remaining in the Time Palace, he can operate the time simulator in his mind according to the highest time flow rate experienced by his consciousness.

"The time simulator is actually based on consciousness! Good, good, good!" Yang Wu's eyes burned with excitement.

"This is really amazing!" Yang Wu was very excited; he knew very well what this meant.

The Time Simulator is based on consciousness, which means that Yang Wu's original core does not need to stay in the Time Palace at all, and even his clone can leave.

Because there are countless secret methods in the universe for creating divine incarnations, and these incarnations also carry a portion of the original being's consciousness.

Such as the clone technique of the Chaos Monument Guardian, and the divine power avatars condensed by many powerful beings...

The clones that Kander cultivates are much weaker than the original body, but they are safer.

As for those divine incarnations, they can only serve to transmit messages, and when the original body perishes, all the incarnations will also perish.

However, despite their many shortcomings, the role of these divine incarnations cannot be denied.

This is especially important to Yang Wu.

If Yang Wu cultivates a secret technique that can condense a divine avatar, he can completely let the avatar stay in the Time Palace in his place, thus freeing up his two clones.

Yang Wu even considered how to accelerate time after he became the strongest being in the universe and all his clones merged into one…

……

An hour later, Yang Wu finally stopped the Time Palace from operating.

With a strange fluctuation, the flow of time around Yang Wu returned to normal.

"I wonder how much energy it consumed?" Yang Wu quickly took out the Light God Source Crystal to check.

It was evident that the energy within one of the Light God Source Crystals had been significantly depleted.

"Red Flame, immediately investigate the damage status of this Light God Source Crystal!" Yang Wu commanded in his mind.

After a beam of light swept across the Light God Source Crystal in Yang Wu's hand, Chi Yan's voice rang in his mind: "Master, the energy within this Light God Source Crystal has been reduced by 2.86%."

"2.86%?" Yang Wu nodded slightly. "A low-grade Light God Source Crystal is worth 60 points, and it consumes 17160 points of resources in just one hour. The Time Palace is indeed a gold-eating tycoon!"

"In just one hour, it consumed the entire fortune of an ordinary immortal god. That's over 400,000 points a day, 150 million points a year, and exactly 150 billion points in a thousand years. That's exactly the resource consumption my teacher told me about!"

"This is only ten times the time flow rate; I wonder how terrifying it would be if it were fifty times or a hundred times?"

However, Yang Wu is only thinking about it now; he cannot even maintain a tenfold time flow for long.

Logically speaking, Yang Wu's current wealth should be enough to keep the Time Palace running at ten times the time flow speed for more than forty years.

In this way, he can experience three more simulations within thirty years.

After three simulations, you can go to the outer battlefield for training and also acquire resources to maintain the operation of the Time Palace.

However, Yang Wu couldn't possibly use all his wealth on the Time Palace, since going to the extraterrestrial battlefield in the future would require extremely high resource consumption, whether it was for probes or auxiliary life forms.

Secondly, even if Yang Wu goes to the extraterrestrial battlefield in the future, the initial speed at which he acquires resources cannot maintain the Time Palace's operation at ten times the time flow rate.

"It seems I should run this time simulator at five times the time flow rate for now, and then increase the time flow rate when I become stronger in the future!" Yang Wu secretly planned.

With this in mind, Yang Wu directly left the Yan God Clan clone inside the Time Palace, and at the same time, made the Time Palace operate at five times the time flow rate of the original universe.

With five times the time flow rate, the resources consumed are greatly reduced, and the thousand low-grade Light God Source Crystals that Yang Wu purchased are enough to keep it running for twenty years.

There's no need to buy new Light God Crystals immediately.

After arranging the time acceleration, Yang Wu returned directly to the quiet room.

After a long period of silence in the quiet room, Yang Wu shook his head and sighed, "It's time to leave!"

Originally, Yang Wu planned to stay on Earth until the peak of the Realm Lord realm because of the different time flow rates between the Primordial Universe and the Initial Universe, and he would never enter the Initial Universe again, in order to use the Time Simulator.

But now that the Time Palace exists and he can use clones, Yang Wu has changed his plans.

Aside from the time simulator factor, going to Chaos City for secluded cultivation is Yang Wu's best option.

Because of the laws governing the universe manifested within and outside the spatial rifts, and the existence of the Chaos Monument, the primordial universe greatly aids cultivators in comprehending these laws.

Yang Wu's true self and his clone share the same soul and the same consciousness!

The Earthlings themselves observed the laws governing the universe manifested in the spatial rifts within the primordial universe, or comprehended the Nine Universes Chaos Stele.

Even in the primordial universe, the avatar of the Flame God Clan can see the same things as the original Earthling because of the connection between their consciousnesses.

In this way, the huge difference in time flow between the original body and the clone can be fully utilized.

In other words, after Yang Wu's Earthling body went to Chaos City and cultivated there for a year, nearly seventeen years had passed in the Time Palace for his Yan God Clan avatar.

Under normal circumstances, the cultivation speed within Chaos City is ten times that within the primordial universe.

In this way, Yang Wu's comprehension efficiency reached 170 times the original.

Of course, it's impossible to achieve such a high level of comprehension efficiency in a real-world scenario, but there's no doubt that Yang Wu's cultivation speed will increase again after he goes to Chaos City, and it won't affect the operation of the Time Simulator.

Of course, the most important part is the comprehension of the Chaos Stele!

It takes seven days for the Earthling to comprehend the Chaos Stele within Chaos City, while the Yan God Clan's avatar can spend over a hundred days comprehending it within the Time Palace.

If Yang Wu were to accelerate the time flow of the Time Palace to a hundred times while comprehending the Chaos Stele, he could have comprehended it for more than six years.

How enormous is this advantage?

"It's time to leave!"

Yang Wu slowly got up, pushed open the door of the quiet room, and walked out.

My time calculation method is feasible. Those who have questions can refer to Chapter 12 of Part 24, which discusses Luo Feng's journey from the Rhinoceros Emperor's Bureau to the Giant Axe Miniature Universe.

Moreover, such opportunities can be replicated; all you need are treasures that can create clones and accelerate time.
