Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 767


The moment that the vortex formed and the channel opened, there was a faint feeling within the Time Mystic Realm. The great sun phantom, the projection of the little blue lamp, immediately looked up and locked onto somewhere in space.

He had already felt a terrifying strength arriving. It was as deep as a prison and as vast as the endless sea, as if it could break apart the world with just a thought…a peerless powerhouse was using an ability that could trace something back to its source, had locked onto this place, and was forcefully tearing open a portal to reach here!

It was clear that the person who was coming now was the person from that clan who had tried to investigate Qin Yu without result.

Once this person arrived, the little blue lamp would no longer be able to hide its presence. If it were discovered, it would surely initiate a great calamity.

Qin Yu would absolutely die at that time!

So the little blue lamp only had one choice right now – to leave immediately. Otherwise, not only would it not be able to help Qin Yu, but it would thrust him beyond any chance of redemption. If he was carried off by that person instead, then perhaps there would be a favorable turn in the future.

“I’m sorry, Qin Yu.” The little blue lamp quietly said. The moment its voice fell, the figure within the great sun became cold and faint.

The figure had once again entered into a detached state where it felt that everything within the heavens and earth was nothing but an illusion. No matter how much he didn’t like it, this state allowed him to make the best possible decisions in the shortest period of time.

Hum –

The great sun phantom gently trembled as space broke apart. But when it was about to leave, the entire Time Mystic Realm suddenly trembled.

Runes appeared one after another, each one emitting a sharp aura. They were like invisible swords, able to cut and extinguish anything.

The traps it had placed on the leaf of the Star Cutting Grass were finally activating!

According to the initial plan, this should be the time when Qin Yu made his move and activated the last rune, capturing the Time Mystic Realm.

But now, Qin Yu had entered into a state of epiphany, completely oblivious to the outside world. As for the little blue lamp, it couldn’t do anything right now so all of its arrangements were made in vain.

Moreover, if the final rune couldn’t be smoothly activated, everything that happened here would be discovered by the builder of the Time Altar.

The great sun phantom had dimmed down and almost escaped into space. Then, it stopped in this state.

Perhaps there was still a chance. Even if this chance was small, it still had to try. If something was wrong, the little blue lamp would immediately leave.

The little blue lamp hadn’t released its detached state of mind. The only reason it chose to stay behind was because this was more beneficial to it.

If something happened to Qin Yu, it would lose its partner and its path to recovery would fly far, far away.

A celestial mountain floated in the highest heavens. Stars and moons shined above, converging into a brilliant river of light.

A grand feast was being held on this celestial mountain. Numerous sword immortals displayed their skills, using the flat summit as their stage.

In front of a series of long and narrow white jade tables, immortal dancers moved about. A thin fog gently tumbled around the surroundings, lending an even more mystical immortal atmosphere to the banquet.

Figures sat at each white jade table. Their facial features were mostly blurred. This wasn’t because they used concealing techniques, but because the rules of the world covered up the faces of these venerable beings. If one’s cultivation didn’t reach a certain extent, it was simply impossible to see them clearly.

At this time, the immortal dancers were reaching the climax of their performance. Some people cheered. On the seventh upper white jade table on the left, a red-haired daoist faintly smiled. He raised a drink to his guests and spoke heartily with them.

As he lifted a hand and was taking a drink, his eyes suddenly flashed. In that brief flash, there seemed to be a radiant saber light slashing through the heavens, and that saber light was burning with brilliant red flames. The flames lit up the clouds, wildly churning them as if they would never be extinguished.

Over the years, one of the places he had arranged had been touched by people. This was normally a common matter, but this time it was somewhat interesting. Not only had this person discovered him, but they actually swallowed the bait.

It had been a long time since he came across such an interesting person.

The red-haired daoist put down his drink and slightly closed his eyes. Since it was a place he had arranged, he naturally left behind means to control it.

If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t be laying down bait throughout the endless heavens, but would be stupidly giving people gifts instead.

But the moment he closed his eyes, the calm red-haired daoist felt his heart skip a beat. Through his connection with the Time Altar, he discovered that a powerful aura had locked onto that location. And, he wasn’t a stranger to this aura at all.

It was actually that clan!

Could it be that the one who took his bait this time was a cultivator from that clan?

When he felt that formidable aura that was about to arrive, the red-haired daoist was silent for a moment. Then, he decided to concede and withdraw this time.

But that didn’t mean he would give up on the Time Altar. Every bit of the power of time was incomparably difficult to acquire.

If he lost it, that would mean he would regress in the progress he had made on the path of time. Even if it was a person from that clan, they could give up any idea of damaging his cultivation!

His strength erupted. This would serve as a warning that the Time Altar had an owner and also force the cultivator from that clan to back off. If both sides gave up like this, that would be the correct way to handle things.

The red-haired daoist pressed his hands together and then slashed the space in front of him. A slit opened in space, engulfing the flames he had formed.

Within the spatial channel, the Patriarch’s avatar suddenly frowned. He came to a stop and flicked his sleeves. A mass of darkness appeared, immediately condensing into an endless abyss.

The next moment, flames appeared. They were originally the size of little points, but then they blew up, immediately transforming into scorching skies.

Saber light cut into the abyss and the darkness was sliced open. When both sides collided, it was like hot cooking oil being splashed into water. An intense sizzling sound filled the air as the two sides erupted against each other.

Terrifying shockwaves of strength spread everywhere!

The Patriarch coldly snorted. He raised his hand and pressed down. The shaky and damaged spatial channel immediately calmed down.

Looking into the abyss and seeing the saber flames that still burned as if they would never be extinguished, the Patriarch’s eyes turned ice cold. “Scarlet Sky!”

It seemed that the one who had prevented his divine sense from descending before was him.

Although this person was a newly promoted Eternal, his cultivation was extremely formidable. Even amongst the Eternals, he was ranked in the top.

Moreover, the Patriarch knew that not too long ago, Scarlet Sky came into conflict with an expert from their clan over a treasure, and the two had fought over it. Although he had been defeated in the end, his undying flame saber intent had caused that clan expert to suffer, and even now that expert still hadn’t healed.

Afterwards, whether by design or by accident, Scarlet Sky clashed with their clan several times. The Patriarch was able to summon all of this person’s information with a thought.

According to the information collected by the clan, not only did they outline the exceptional strength of Scarlet Sky, but he was also extremely narrow-minded…

The Patriarch frowned and a cold light flashed in his eyes. If Scarlet Sky was truly trying to control the clan’s bloodline that was wandering about alone in the outside world, then he didn’t mind using the corpse of an Eternal and setting it up as a flag, to warn everyone just what fate awaited those that tried to covet their bloodline!

He lifted a hand and grasped forward. The flames that were recklessly burning in the dark abyss suddenly looked as if all the air had been sucked away; they were immediately extinguished.

Dragon City.

Ten miles away from the Shadow Clan’s dwelling, there was an inn that had stood there for several hundred years. Because it was clean, refined, and had a good reputation, it had a prosperous business. In particular, due to the opening of the arena, it was packed full of gusts.

No one knew that this eye-catching family-run inn was actually the most important foothold that the Dark Parliament had in Dragon City. This was because its significance was to seize the mysterious Time Altar in the Shadow Clan’s dwelling.

Yes, that was right. The Dark Parliament had information about the Time Altar in Dragon City. And besides them, there were also other influences that were aware of this matter.

There were no impermeable walls in this world. In any case, the seven great sects and the Shadow Clan also knew about the Time Altar. Information about it had already been leaked through countless channels.

Of course, it was impossible for the average person to know this information. Those that had the qualifications to know all maintained their silence. There was no need to jump out and be targeted by the seven great sects and the Shadow Clan.

Looking from top down, one would see layers upon layers of guest rooms. Then there was the dining area, the entertainment venues, the lobby, the underground storage rooms, and the training chambers. Further below that, several hundred meters deeper, only then did one faintly see the traces of an array formation. But even if one swept through this area with their divine sense, unless they carefully checked this place inch by inch, they would be blocked out by the amount of magic power.

Finally, a thousand feet below ground, underground constructions were present. They were ring-like in appearance, linking together to form an even larger circle.

This was an array formation that was supposed to be used to capture the Time Altar. Although it had been built over many years, it was still incomplete and was in a constant state of adjustment.

But today, this half-built array formation had been activated. A dazzling light flowed between 27 interlocking circles.

In the core position of the array formation, a middle-aged man slowly drank tea. With a bit of strength, he crushed the crystal in his hands.

Bang –

The strength of the entire great array formation opened up and its goal was the Time Altar within the Shadow Clan’s dwelling. This was an attempt that was doomed to never succeed and it would ruin the Dark Parliament’s years of preparations.

But its intended function now was not to capture the Time Altar, but to thoroughly enrage it, so that it would detonate the power of time contained within.

To murder with another’s knife…before the knife leaves its sheath, let me give it a push!
