On the ship, Elder Wu's face was green. He was angry and helpless.
Ling Xian was helpless as well.
No matter how hard he thought, he couldn't think of a solution. The only thing he could do was to hold on for a little longer.
"The hatred between us has existed for hundreds of years. It's time to end it."
The black-robed old man shot a glance at Elder Wu before raising his hand, causing the void to shake. Immediately afterwards, an invisible aura blasted towards the Star Boat.
This was a slash of space. Only those with profound understanding of space can use it.
"Watch out!" Elder Wu's expression changed and he prepared to make a move.
However, Ling Xian was faster.
Many heavenly arrays began to shine and formed into a giant mountain that stopped the elder in black's slash of space.
However, the heavenly arrays broke as well.
The elder in black was far too powerful. Even a complete array couldn't stop him, let alone an array that was only half as powerful.
"Interesting."
The elder in black looked at Ling Xian, "Your array is not bad. Sadly, you can't even withstand one attack."
Then, he flapped around his sleeve. The slash of space descended and immediately tore the ship into pieces.
Ling Xian coughed up blood as well. His white robe was dyed red.
"Ling Xian!"
Elder Wu lost his composure and apologized, "I am sorry, I dragged you into this."
"What do you mean by dragging me into this? You treated me so well. How can I just stand by and watch?" Ling Xian coughed up blood, feeling troubled.
After all, he was merely of the eighth level. Even if he used everything he had, he wouldn't be able to defeat the elder in black.
"Don't worry. No matter what, I won't let anything happen to you!"
Elder Wu gritted his teeth. Light swirled in his eyes and a gold and silver stone flew out.
This stone was out of the ordinary. It was gold and silver in color and emitted the laws of time and space. Anyone who sees it will be attracted to it.
"This is … the Stone of Time!"
Ling Xian's heart skipped a beat. Not even in his dreams did he think that Elder Wu would have the legendary Stone of Time.
As everyone knows, the Stone of Time is a heavenly object. It can only be formed in a place that is filled with the laws of time.
The Stone of Space is the same. However, compared to the Stone of Time, this stone is more common.
Above these two types of heavenly stones, there exists another type of heavenly stone. It is the Stone of Time.
This item was extremely rare, even rarer than the Heartless Flower. Its value was also immeasurable, a true supreme divine object!
It contained the power of time and space, as well as the laws of space and time. It could create a space-time!
It was not a Grotto-Heaven, nor was it a world. Instead, it was a universe, a true space-time!
Of course, this was only a legend. No one could be sure if this stone could create a real space-time.
However, there was no need to doubt its value, and its power was also extremely great. If it was in the hands of someone proficient in space-time, it wouldn't be inferior to a supreme weapon!
"I finally found you."
The black-robed old man couldn't hide his excitement as he looked at the Space-Time Stone, which was circulating with gold and silver colors. His whole body was trembling.
There was nothing that could be done about it. The Stone of Time was a peerless divine object. Even an invincible True Immortal would be moved by it.
"Back then, you and I mistakenly entered the Supreme Being's cave dwelling."
"You were in mortal danger, and it was I who saved you. Thus, you said that if there were any treasures, you would let me choose first."
"However, when you saw the Space-Time Stone, you went back on your word. Not only did you not let me choose first, you even wanted to take all the treasures for yourself."
"The most despicable thing was that you ambushed me."
Elder Wu stared deadly at the old man in black and didn't hide his hatred at all, "Luckily, I had a treasure to protect me. It helped me leave the Supreme Being's cave."
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned slightly. He now understood what happened.
Then, his expression turned cold. The old man in black repaid kindness with enmity. He deserved to die!
"Back then, you were lucky. Today, you cannot escape even if you have wings!"
The old man in black snickered, "Hand over the Stone of Time and I will give you a quick death!"
"Dream on!"
Elder Wu's eyes were cold, "Even if I have to destroy the Stone of Time, I will not let you have it!"
"You dare!" The old man in black shouted in anger. However, he didn't dare to make a move.
Though Elder Wu was heavily injured, he could easily destroy the Stone of Time. He naturally didn't dare to gamble. "Let's see if I dare or not!"
Elder Wu snickered, "If you have the guts, then try and see if I die first or if the Stone of Time breaks first!"
Then, he sent a message to Ling Xian, "I will do my best to build a tunnel. You must take advantage of this opportunity."
"Elder, you …" Ling Xian stopped talking. Elder Wu's injuries were far too severe. No matter how capable he is with space, he cannot build a stable tunnel.
"Did you forget about the Stone of Time? You can borrow its power. "
Elder Wu said in a low voice, "However, you only have one chance. You must take advantage of it."
"Why don't we leave together?" Ling Xian frowned.
"This person's space mastery is above mine. If I leave, he will follow."
"Plus, the Stone of Time is not something that can be easily used. Even at my peak, I may not be able to handle the backlash."
"This is why I didn't use the Stone of Time even when I was heavily injured."
Elder Wu let out a long sigh, feeling helpless.
"The backlash …" Ling Xian was a little startled but then revealed a smile.
"Go. Don't worry about me."
"Remember, the opportunity is fleeting. You must take advantage of it." Elder Wu's expression turned serious as he silently manipulated the Stone of Time.
"Wait a bit. If it doesn't work, then we can."
Ling Xian softly grinned, "Trust me."
Hearing this, Elder Wu stared at Ling Xian and retracted his energy.
"You already have one foot in the door of hell. You cannot hold on much longer. I will wait for you to fall." The elder in black snickered.
"The door of hell …" Elder Wu bitterly smiled, feeling hopeless.
Just like the elder in black had said, he cannot hold on much longer. At most, he can hold on for half an hour.
What could he do? His injuries were far too severe. Without a Dan of the First Realm, he would not be able to escape this.
"Not necessarily."
Ling Xian spoke softly, startling both Elder Wu and the elder in black.
"Young man, what did you say?" The elder in black's expression darkened.
"I said, he may not die."
Ling Xian softly grinned. He was an alchemist. If Elder Wu dies, then wouldn't he be too useless?
Thus, he took out the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth and other spiritual medicines. He planned on brewing two types of Dans.
The first was the World Cleansing Pill. This pill could even expel the backlash from the Heavenly Dao, so it could naturally erase the backlash from the Space-Time Stone.
The second was the Dan of Healing. Though it cannot heal Elder Wu immediately, it can help him get out of danger.
"Brew a Dan?" The elder in black frowned. Realizing what Ling Xian was trying to do, he laughed out of anger.
Brewing a Dan in front of him meant Ling Xian didn't think anything of him!
Therefore, the elder in black was enraged. His palm began to shine as he tried to kill Ling Xian.
"If you dare to move, I will destroy the Stone of Time!" Elder Wu screamed and used his last bit of energy to surround the Stone of Time.
"You!"
The elder in black was furious, but he didn't dare to make a move.
For the Stone of Time, he sacrificed his friendship with Elder Wu. Naturally, he didn't want the Stone of Time to shatter.
Therefore, the elder in black was caught in a dilemma. He was afraid that Ling Xian would brew the Dan, but he was also afraid that Elder Wu would destroy the Stone of Time.
