At this moment, Qin Wentian's heart was extremely restless. Although Old Ghost had emphasized to him how extraordinary the Time Monument Inscription was, he didn't dare to imagine that the power of the Great Dao contained within the Time Monument Inscription would actually be able to reverse time and return to the past.
In that case, the identity of the person who did this was very obvious.
The Time King, an existence that stood at the peak of the Mystic Region. This city was named after him and this world was his cultivation ground. Even in the future, when the three hegemons organized the Convention of the Myriad Realms, the location wasn't the location where the three hegemons were located but was in the Time City instead. From this, one could very well imagine what sort of existence the Time King was.
World overlords were already able to control heavenheart mandates. In that case, what sort of power would heavenly deities have?
Transcending time, traveling through the river of time. In the past, Qin Wentian didn't even dare to imagine this. But now, it truly happened to him.
"Do you know why you came to the past?" It was unknown where the ethereal voice came from. Qin Wentian's expression was extremely heavy as he guessed, "Because I comprehended the power of the Time Monument Inscription and activated it, I was brought here?"
"This is one of the reasons. But how can the Time Monument Inscription appear so timely?" That person laughed. "Transcending time, seeing the past, peering into the future. It isn't that you comprehended the Time Monument Inscription but rather, it has always been waiting for you."
"The Time Monument Inscription is waiting for me?"
Qin Wentian's heart trembled. Transcending time, peering into the past and the future. This was even more terrifying compared to prophecy, right?
In that case, was the Sword Monarch's accomplishments already destined when he comprehended the Time Monument Inscription? Was it because the Time King could see the future?
"Senior, with your capabilities, wouldn't you be unparalleled in the world?" Qin Wentian spoke in a light voice.
"Haha, you are so naive. How can the dao of the world be as simple as you imagine? Only when you reach my level would you be able to understand. I'm known as the Time King but can I truly be unparalleled in the world? If I want to reverse time, I can't do it. I also have no way to change this world. My dao is ultimately limited. I hope that someone can surpass me and truly transcend time. "
That voice laughed loudly. As expected, it was really the Time King of the Mystic Region, the Time King.
"Alright, time's up. You can go back." Following that, a beam of light directly hit Qin Wentian's body. At this moment, Qin Wentian felt as if something had entered his body and 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 position on the ancient mountain, maintaining the same posture as before. It was as though everything that had happened was just a dream, and he hadn't experienced anything at all.
"I'll wait for you in the future."
A voice seemed to have traversed through the past and present, directly descending upon the Time Realm. This voice was illusory as though it didn't exist, yet it was truly transmitted into the ears of everyone.
At this instant, within the Time Realm, the bodies of everyone trembled violently. They opened their eyes and looked up into the void. However, there was nothing there at all. There was no aura at all. There was only a single voice that pierced through time.
"Who?" A major character spoke. Waves of shock rose in his heart. In the Time Realm, such a voice actually appeared. "I'll wait for you in the future."
There was no reply, it was impossible for there to be a reply. Qin Wentian stared at the void, feeling incomparably shocked in his heart.
In that instant earlier, he actually returned to the past. Also, no one knew that he was the only one who was enveloped by the power of the Time Monument Inscription. In that case, was the Time King there the Time King of the past or the Time King of the present?
In the air, the four Time Monument Inscriptions spun rapidly. After that, they transformed into four beams of light that illuminated the Time Realm before vanishing.
"Is it Senior Time King?" A major character asked. There was still no reply. But when that voice rang out and the Time Monument Inscription vanished, they understood that the rumors might be true. That Time Monument Inscription was truly the work of the Time King. Back then, the Sword Monarch Jian Junlai had indeed inherited the power of the Time King. This was why he soared up into the sky and became the number one swordsman in the Mystic Region.
In that case, in the Time Realm today, who was the person who obtained the Time King's inheritance?
I'll wait for you in the future. You? Who was he referring to?
Numerous sharp gazes swept through the crowd, as though they were searching for the person who obtained the inheritance of the Time King.
"Qingfeng, is it you?" In the Samsara Temple, an elder transmitted his voice to Bai Qingfeng, a supreme genius of their sect.
"Nope." Bai Qingfeng replied, causing the elder of the Samsara Temple to feel a little disappointed. After that, he felt curious. If it wasn't Bai Qingfeng, who could it be? Could it be a supreme genius from another peak power?
He wasn't the only one who had such thoughts. At this moment, many people were asking the most outstanding world overlords of their sects. In the end, they discovered that none of them were the world overlords. Naturally, this was all done through voice transmissions. No one knew about the situation of others because everyone was suspecting others.
"Who was the one who comprehended the Time Monument Inscription and obtained the favor of the Time King?" A major character asked. "If there's such good fortune, I believe that person would have a chance to enter the tutelage of a heavenly deity."
The hearts of everyone trembled. That's right, someone who obtained the inheritance of the Time King might very well become a Sword Monarch in the future. It was only normal for someone like Jian Junlai to enter the tutelage of a heavenly deity, right? They didn't believe that the Time King wouldn't be moved.
However, there was still no one who admitted it. Their gazes were all staring at the others.
At this moment, Qin Wentian naturally wouldn't admit that he was the one who obtained the inheritance. Although the other party made it sound so nice, saying that he would have a chance to enter the tutelage of a heavenly deity, who knew the truth? The implications of this matter were too great. Because he had personally witnessed the abilities of the Time King, he suspected that even heavenly deities would covet the inheritance. Hence, only a fool would admit it.
At this moment, he sensed something at his chest. As expected, there was an item there that resembled a rune bone. There were terrifying runes of the Great Dao engraved on it, resembling a true dao bone. Also, it seemed to be a part of his body. As long as he willed it, he would be able to unleash the energy within. However, he didn't dare to use it now as he was worried that others would sense the source of the energy.
"Senior." At this moment, Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to the Skybreak Heavenly Deity in his mind.
"I'm here." The Skybreak Heavenly Deity replied.
"Earlier, the words spoken by the Time King were directed at me." Qin Wentian spoke.
"I know. My consciousness is one with yours and I experienced what happened earlier." The voice of the Skybreak Heavenly Deity was a little agitated. Seems like the Undying Successor was extraordinary. He was born extraordinary and was destined to have heaven-defying accomplishments in the future.
Earlier, that person was a godking character.
"There's an additional rune bone on my chest. What is that?" Qin Wentian asked.
"A dao bone. Your luck is truly too heaven-defying. Only extremely rare characters in the world would have a chance to inherit a dao bone. Their ancestors must have been godkings before for there to be such a possibility. As for you, you were bestowed a dao bone by a godking." The Skybreak Heavenly Deity sighed.
"Is that so?" Qin Wentian silently mused. In that case, his luck was truly very good. This might be a dao bone that was even more valuable compared to his bloodline.
Back then, he once heard that the ancestor of the Battle Saint Tribe had his Battle Saint Bone dug out by someone, causing the strongest inheritance of the tribe to be severed. From this, it seems like the Battle Saint Tribe once had a godking character.
Also, in his memories, when his father died in his first life, everything in his body was taken away. The other party wanted to seize everything from him, not even sparing 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 uproariously. "Before this, we were still discussing what you should choose for your eighth astral soul. Although you have entered the world overlord realm, you have been hesitating. But now, the dao bone has already been imprinted on your body, it's like a heavenly formation. Do you still need to consider for your eighth astral soul?"
Qin Wentian's eyes flashed before he smiled. That's right, although he had already entered the world overlord realm, he first comprehended his world heart and heavenheart mandates. Hence, it didn't really matter if he comprehended his astral soul a little later. His will once roamed the nine heavenly layers but he kept hesitating. Right now, he was only left with two astral souls and they would decide the ultimate path of his cultivation. Hence, he was very cautious and didn't communicate with them.
Right now, it was just like what the Skybreak Heavenly Deity said. Good fortune descended from the heavens. Everything was fate.
"With the Time Dao Bone, maybe I don't need to rely on astral souls and can still use time-attributed energy." Qin Wentian spoke.
"That's true. However, if you have an astral soul, your attributes would be even stronger. The dao bone would also amplify your insights into time. The dao of time has always been something that is extremely difficult to comprehend. You shouldn't miss out on such an opportunity. I suggest you condense a time astral soul first." The Skybreak Heavenly Deity suggested.
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded silently. A time astral soul could be used together with other law attributes. If he comprehended a heavenheart mandate and fused it into his world heart, how powerful would that be?
"Lei`er." Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to Luoshen Lei.
"Elder brother, what's the matter?" Luoshen Lei replied.
"The legendary first generation deity of the Mystic Region, the Godking of Time. Are there any records of him in the ancient records of the Luoshen Clan?" Qin Wentian asked.
"Mhm, I've heard a little about it before. The first generation overlord of the Mystic Region is equivalent to the peak characters of the three hegemonic powers of the Mystic Region added together. How powerful is he? He's like that existence from the Universe Region of the Western Paradise. I didn't expect that he really left behind some ruins in the Time Realm." Luoshen Lei spoke.
"What happened to the Lord of Time?" Qin Wentian asked.
"I'm not sure about this. There are rumors that he transcended time and headed to the past and the future, prying into the past and present. There are also rumors that he pursued the ultimate dao of time and gained control over the river of time." Luoshen Lei replied.
"If that was truly the Time King earlier, I wonder who in the Mystic Region obtained his good fortune. What sort of existence would the person he is waiting for in the future be? Is another Sword Monarch going to appear in the Mystic Region?" Luoshen Lei seemed to be mumbling to herself.
Qin Wentian smiled. Lei 'er did not know that the voice was directed at him. Moreover, he did not expect Lei' er to have heard of the Sword Monarch.
Luoshen Lei didn't know, the others didn't know as well. Other than Qin Wentian himself.
The eyes of those major characters flashed as they stared at the crowd. Their immortal senses swept out unceasingly, wanting to find the person who spoke. The Time King was waiting for him in the future. This meant that this person would definitely become a major character in the Mystic Region in the future. However, they didn't even know who this person was. They also didn't know which genius world overlord from which peak power the Time King would appear.
"What a pity, I almost comprehended it but someone beat me to it. I wonder which bastard is it." Ten Miles Springwind cursed in a low voice. Qin Wentian had a face filled with black lines. Old Ghost sighed silently in his heart. This time around, did he miss it again?
Cao Tian and Phoenix were also staring at the crowd. Just like everyone else, they were guessing who that voice was directed at exactly!
