"Again!"
Ying Tianjie was extremely unconvinced. Ye Chen had not defeated him, he had only made him suffer a little. As long as he was not affected by the illusion, Ye Chen would definitely not be his match.
"Enough!"
At this moment, Ying Liexiong spoke. His voice spread to the plaza.
"Yes."
No one dared to disobey the orders of the leader of the Unfalling Eagle Tribe, not even Ying Tianjie.
...
Unfalling Eagle Tribe's main hall.
"You are not bad. You are qualified to represent my Unfalling Eagle Tribe in the Desolate God Tower." Ying Liexiong sized up Ye Chen and nodded to himself.
Ye Chen felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at by the other party. The other party's eyes were like the sharpest scalpel in the world, able to see through all his secrets. Even his soul was under the other party's observation.
"Silver Martial Dao Yuan Spirit, and not just a basic Silver Martial Dao Yuan Spirit." The stronger the Martial Dao Yuan Spirit, the more observant it was. It could see through all the secrets of others. It was said that if one could cultivate a Gold Martial Dao Yuan Spirit, they would not be far from becoming a True God. With a thought, they could cause the world to collapse and the opponent's body to disintegrate.
"That would be my honor."
Ye Chen said.
Ying Liexiong smiled, "Very humble, but humble requires confidence. Lan Yue should have told you the details of the Desolate God Tower. This time, the details have been changed. Only those who reach the top nine will receive a portion of time. First place will receive two portions. One portion is ten years, two portions is twenty years. If you can reach the top nine, I can let you comprehend the word 'Martial' for a year. If you reach first place, you can comprehend it for two years. What do you think?"
"No problem."
Ye Chen nodded without the slightest hesitation. If it were someone else, they might think that the time was too little. However, Ye Chen didn't think so. First, he didn't have the chance to participate in the first place. Even if he managed to obtain the amount of time for the Unfalling Eagle tribe, the others wouldn't be able to give him too much time to comprehend. Second, the tribe was so big, and everyone wanted to comprehend the Martial character. If he had more time to comprehend it, the others would naturally have less time to do so. Under such circumstances, one or two years was already a luxury.
"It's not over yet. What I just said is without external help. However, with your strength, you can only reach the top nine. There is no hope for the first one, but I have a way for you to increase your strength even faster. The prerequisite is that the time you need to comprehend the word 'Martial' must be halved. Reach the top nine, comprehend the word 'Martial' for half a year. Reach first, comprehend the word 'Martial' for a year."
"What?"
Ye Chen frowned.
Ying Liexiong explained, "My Unfalling Eagle Tribe possesses thirteen words left behind by a Demigod. I can let you comprehend these words. For example, your Time Ultimacy is only at the 70% comprehension realm. I have the 'Time' word left behind by a Demigod. As long as your perception is not low, you can raise your Time Ultimacy realm before challenging the Desolate God Tower."
"Time?"
Ye Chen's heart stirred. The Time Ultimacy was extremely difficult to raise. With the 'Time' word left behind by a Demigod, there was indeed hope of raising the Time Ultimacy realm.
"Alright."
This was a rare opportunity. Ye Chen did not believe that with his current strength, he would be able to reach first place. Being able to borrow external help was naturally a good thing. "Are there any other words?"
"There is still the 'Guard' word. However, there should not be enough time. In another year, the hundred years will be up. In this year, it would be impressive if you can comprehend a bit of the essence of the 'Time' word."
Actually, Ying Liexiong did not have much hope for Ye Chen. The main reason was that he did not give Ye Chen much time. He did not expect that only the top nine would receive a portion of time. The first place would receive two portions.
"Ye Chen, comprehend the 'Time' word first. Don't be too impatient." Lan Yue reminded Ye Chen from the side.
"Alright." Ye Chen nodded. A year was a little too short. Be it the 'Time' word or the 'Guard' word, they were both very important to him. The 'Time' word could help him raise his Time Ultimacy. The 'Guard' word could help him perfect his Five Elements defensive sword techniques. If he could comprehend these two words, his combat strength would greatly increase.
"This is the 'Time' word. Comprehend it well. Also, I have arranged a courtyard for you. In the future, that will be your residence until you leave."
Ying Liexiong tossed a stone to Ye Chen. On it was a 'Time' word. Just one word could affect time. Ye Chen could clearly see that the time around the stone had stopped flowing. It was like a pool of stagnant water.
After Ye Chen left, Ying Liexiong said to Lan Yue, "I have given him the chance. Now, it will depend on his comprehension."
Lan Yue said, "Father, Ye Chen's comprehension is really high. He is much stronger than me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought him back."
"That is for the best. Right, tell me about what happened along the way."
Ying Liexiong and Lan Yue started to talk about daily life.
...
In the courtyard, Ye Chen did not waste any time and started to comprehend the 'Time' word.
"What a weird word."
Ye Chen found that once his consciousness entered the strange space of the 'Time' word, it stopped moving. He couldn't retract it even if he wanted to. He could only stay inside and watch.
Time flew. Ye Chen's Time Profound slowly improved. Because his consciousness couldn't leave, Ye Chen continued to comprehend it. In the Desolate God Continent, if one didn't eat meat for a day, their strength would decrease. After a long time without meat, Ye Chen was so skinny that he was just a bag of bones. His strength had decreased by one or two percent.
In the blink of an eye, three months passed.
Ye Chen was so skinny that he didn't even look like a human.
Lan Yue had been here once. Seeing Ye Chen like this, she frowned for a long time. Now, she finally understood why her father didn't want her to be in a hurry to comprehend the 'Time' word. It turned out that comprehending the 'Time' word required a huge price. People with low comprehension couldn't even comprehend it. Otherwise, their consciousness would be stuck in it forever and they would die of exhaustion.
Another month passed.
"So dangerous!"
Ye Chen's consciousness withdrew.
The reason his consciousness could withdraw was because his Time Profound had reached eighty percent completion. To comprehend the 'Time' word, he had to improve his Time Profound before he could withdraw. Otherwise, his consciousness wouldn't be able to extricate itself.
After recuperating for a week and eating a large amount of supreme meat, Ye Chen finally recovered his strength.
With his Time Profound reaching eighty percent completion, the power of Ye Chen's Sword Burial Art and Death Cut increased greatly. They were equivalent to Great Accomplishment sword moves. They weren't any weaker than Hegemon Sword Style and Illusory Sword Style. Especially the Sword Burial Art, its power was even above Illusory Sword Style. Illusory Sword Style used illusions to win, while Sword Burial Art could make the opponent unable to move. Unless the opponent's Time Profound wasn't lower than Ye Chen's, and their heart power wasn't weak either.
"Still not enough!"
Ye Chen continued to comprehend the 'Time' word.
The difference between Time Profound at eighty percent completion and Time Profound at ninety percent completion was like heaven and earth. Eighty percent of Time Profound would allow the Spacetime Sword Art to have the power of a Great Accomplishment supreme sword art. Ninety percent would be close to Perfection. As for Time Profound at one hundred percent, it would definitely surpass Perfection supreme sword arts. One had to know that Time Profound was the strongest in battle. It was a level stronger than the other complementary profounds. It could contend with the most ordinary supreme sword arts.
