Chapter 1786: I Will be Waiting for you in the Future

Translator: Lordbluefire  Editor: Lordbluefire

Right now, Qin Wentian’s state of heart was extremely disturbed. Although Old Ghost did tell him how extraordinary the Time Monument Inscription is, never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that this monument contained the power from the great dao and actually caused him to travel back in time, returning to the past.

In that case, it was clear that who was the one who created this monument.

An existence of the first generation at the peak of the Mystic Region, the Time King. This city was named after him and this realm, was the place he cultivated in. Even in the later generations, when characters of the three hegemonic powers organized the convention, the location was still set in the Time Realm inside Time City instead of where the three hegemonic powers were located. From this, one could very well imagine what sort of existence the Time King was.

Experts at the world overlord realm could control heavenheart mandates. In that case, what was the power that heavenly deities could control?

Surpassing time, traversing through the river of time. In the past, Qin Wentian definitely wouldn’t dare to think about it. But right now, this matter did truly happen to him.

“Do you know are you now in the past?” That ethereal voice rang out from unknown locations. Qin Wentian’s expression turned heavy as he speculated, “Is it because I comprehended some insights about the power in the Time Monument Inscription and triggered it which resulted in me being brought here?”

“That is only one of the reasons. But why would the Time Monument Inscription appear at this time?” That person smiled. “Surpassing time, seeing the past, prying into the future. It isn’t that you have comprehended the Time Monument Inscription but rather, it has always been waiting for you.”

“The Time Monument Inscription was waiting for me?”

Qin Wentian’s heart stirred. Surpassing time, looking into the past and future. Isn’t the power of time more terrifying compared to the power of prophecy?

In that case, the Sword Monarch who had such accomplishments. Was it already destined then at the moment when he comprehended the Time Stone Monument? Because, the overlord of time, Time King, was able to see into the future.

“Senior, with such abilities, are you not invincible under the heavens?” Qin Wentian asked in a light voice.

“Haha, you are too naive. How can the daos of the world be as simple as you imagined. When you reach my level, you would be able to understand. I might be known as the Time King, but can I really be invincible under the heavens? Wanting to reverse the flow of time for this entire world, I’m not able to do it. I’m also not able to change this world. Ultimately, my dao still has a limit. I hope that someone would be able to surpass me and truly surpass time itself.”

That voice laughed. As expected, it was truly from the Time King, the first generation overlord of the Mystic Region.

“Enough, time’s up. You should return.” That voice drifted over. After that, a beam of light directly blasted into Qin Wentian. At this instant, Qin Wentian felt something entering his body, directly imprinted on his chest.

“BOOM!”

At this moment, Qin Wentian’s body trembled violently as he returned to reality. He was still at his original location, on top of the ancient mountain and his movements were the same as well. It was like everything was just a dream, like he had experienced nothing.

“I will wait for you in the future…”

A voice seemed to pass through the river of time, directly ringing out loud in the Time Realm. This voice was extremely ethereal, like it shouldn’t exist but it rang out in the ears of everyone here.

At this moment, the bodies of everyone trembled violently. Their eyes opened and stared up at the sky but there was simply nothing there nor was there any aura. Only the echoes of that ethereal voice that passed through time remained.

“Who?” A major character spoke. Great waves of shock rose in his heart. A voice like this actually appeared in the Time Realm. I will wait for you in the future…

There was no reply. It was impossible for there to be any. Qin Wentian stared into the distance as shock filled his heart.

In that instant earlier, he had actually returned to the past but nobody knew about this. It was like he was the only one that was enveloped by the laws of time from the Time Monument Inscription, allowing him to travel back in time. In that case, that Time King there, was the Time King of the past? Or was he the current Time King?

In the air, the four-sided stone monument increased the speed of its revolution. After that, it transformed into four beams of light that illuminated the entire Time Realm and vanished all of a sudden.

“Is it Senior Godking?” A major character asked but there was no response. However, it was true that everyone has heard that voice and the Time Monument Inscription vanished after that. They understood that it was very possible for the rumor to be true. The Time Monument Inscription should be a creation of the Time King. Back then, the Sword Monarch also gained an inheritance of this power left behind by the Time King and became the number one swordsman of the Mystic Region.

In that case who was it today that received the Time King’s inheritance?

I will wait for you in the future. Who did the ‘you,’ refer to?

Numerous gazes roamed the crowd, wanting to see who it was that received the Time King’s inheritance.

“Qingfeng, is it you?” In the Samsara Temple, an elder used a voice transmission to ask their supreme genius Bai Qingfeng.

“No.” Bai Qingfeng replied. The elder of the Samsara Temple was slightly disappointed but that emotion was soon replaced by curiosity. Not Bai Qingfeng? Who was it then? Was it another supreme genius from a peak power?

Not only did this elder have this thought? At this moment, many people were asking the supreme geniuses of their sects and clans. However in the end, all of them discovered that the inheritor wasn’t among them. Naturally, all this occurred through voice transmission, nobody knew about the situation of the others. Hence, everyone was suspecting each other.

“Who is it that has comprehended the Time Monument Inscription and obtained the inheritance of the Time King?” A major character spoke out. “Given such a bout of good fortune, I believe that the inheritor would have a chance to enter the tutelage of a heavenly deity-ranked power.”

The hearts of many people trembled. That’s true. For the person who gained the Time King’s inheritance, it was very possible that this person would be a future Sword Monarch. It’s considered normal for that inheritor to be able to join a heavenly deity-ranked power, and most people would surely be enticed by it.

However, no one admitted it. Everyone was surveying the others suspiciously.

At this moment, Qin Wentian naturally wouldn’t admit that it was he who had obtained the inheritance. No matter how nicely the major characters put it, who knew what would truly happen? The importance of this matter was too great. Because he had witnessed the Time King’s ability, he suspected that even heavenly deities would covet this power. So, only a fool would admit in public that he gained the Time King’s inheritance.

At this moment, he sensed his chest’s location, there was indeed something that appeared there. It seemed to be a rune bone with many runes of the great dao inscribed upon it, like a true dao bone. Also, it seemed to have completely integrated as one with his body. With just an intention, he was able to release the energy within. However, he didn’t dare to use it at this moment. He was worried that the fluctuations of this energy would leak out and others would sense the source of this power.

“Senior.” At this moment, Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to the Skybreak Heavenly Deity’s consciousness in his mind.

“I’m here.” Skybreak replied.

“The sentence spoken by the Time King earlier, was spoken to me.” Qin Wentian stated.

“I know, I’m one with your consciousness and have experienced that scene earlier too.” The voice of the Skybreak Heavenly Deity also sounded somewhat shaky. Seems like the successor of the Imperishable Heaven Lord was truly extraordinary. In the future, Qin Wentian would definitely have heaven-defying success.

Earlier, that was a god king character.

“There’s an additional rune bone in my chest. What is that?” Qin Wentian asked.

“It’s a dao bone. Young man, your luck is truly heaven-defying. Only a rare few people in the world have the good fortune to inherit a dao bone. Their ancestors must be god king characters before they had a possibility but as for you, a god king actually directly bestowed it to you.” Skybreak Heavenly Deity spoke with many emotions in his voice.

“Oh is that so?” Qin Wentian silently mused. In that case, his luck was truly very good. This dao bone had a possibility that it’s more valuable compared to a bloodline.

Back then, he also heard that the Battle Saint Bone which was the dao bone of the Battle Saint Tribe’s ancestor, was seized away from then. From then on, all the later generations of tribe members suffered a lack of inheritance. In that case, it seems like the Battle Saint Tribe once had a god king character there before as well.

Also in his memories during the first time when his father died, everything of his father was plundered away, including his flesh, blood and bones.

“Haha, your luck is truly too good.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity seemed to have thought of something as he laughed again. “Before this, we were still discussing what should you select for your eighth astral soul. Although you have broken through to the world overlord level, you are also still hesitating. And now, since the dao bone has already integrated with you, do you even need to consider what you want for your eighth astral soul?”

Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed before he smiled. That’s right. Before this, although he has entered the world overlord realm, he did so through comprehending a world heart and heavenheart mandate. This breakthrough didn’t really have that important a connection with regards to the speed of one’s comprehension of one’s astral soul. His will had once headed up to the nine heavenly layers but he was hesitant to select a constellation to condense an astral soul from. Because right now, he could at most only condense two more astral souls left to determine his ultimate dao path. Hence, he had to treat this matter very seriously and has not made any decision with regards to which astral souls he wanted to condense yet.

Right now, it was like what the Skybreak Heavenly Deity has said. Good fortune descended from the sky. Everything was destined.

“With this dao bone of time, maybe I don’t need to depend on a time-attributed astral soul but can also control time attribute energy.” Qin Wentian mused.

“It’s indeed so. However, with an astral soul, your magnitude of attribute energy would grow even stronger. The dao bone of time can help you to boost your strength and allow you to comprehend the laws of time faster. The dao of time has always been one of the most difficult daos to comprehend. You shouldn’t waste such an opportunity. I suggest that you condense a time-attributed astral soul.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity suggested.

“Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded. A time-attributed astral soul can complement the dao bone of time. If he comprehend a time-related heavenheart mandate and incorporated it into his world heart, what effects would there be?”

“Lei`er.” Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to Luoshen Lei.

“Brother, what’s wrong?” Luoshen Lei replied.

“The legendary Godking of Time that was the first generation overlord of the Mystic Region. Does the Luoshen Clan’s ancient records have information about him?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Mhm, there are some. It’s said that the first generation overlord, Time King, was equivalent to the peak characters from the three hegemonic powers combined together. He is immensely powerful and was the same level as that existence from the Western Paradise of the Universe Region. I didn’t expect that the Time King truly left his inheritance here in the Time Realm.” Luoshen Lei spoke.

“What happened to the Time King later on?” Qin Wentian asked.

“I’m not very sure. There are some rumors stating that he has surpassed time and headed to the future and the past. There are also rumors saying that he was pursuing the ultimate dao of time, seeking to control the river of time.” Luoshen Lei replied.

“If that voice earlier truly belonged to the Time King, I wonder who in the Mystic Region has obtained his inheritance. What sort of existence would the one he is waiting for in the future become? Would another Sword Monarch appear in the Mystic Region?” Luoshen Lei seemed to be mumbling to herself.

Qin Wentian smiled. Lei`er still had no idea that the ethereal voice was talking to him. Also, he didn’t expect that Lei`er has heard of the Sword Monarch before.

Luoshen Lei didn’t know, everyone else had no idea as well. Only Qin Wentian himself knew.

The eyes of those major characters flashed, staring at the crowd. Their immortal senses kept sweeping through the crowd, as though wanting to find the person who gained the inheritance. The Time King was waiting for him in the future. This meant that this person would definitely become a major character of the Mystic Region in the future. However, they didn’t even know who it was or which major power this inheritor was from.

“How unfortunate. I almost comprehended it but that person managed to do so one step before me. I wonder which bastard it is.” Ten Miles Springwind cursed. Qin Wentian had a face filled with black lines. Old Ghost was sighing. Did he miss another opportunity yet again?

Cao Tian and Phoenix were also scanning the crowd. Everyone was speculating who the Time King was speaking to!
