If it had been anyone else, Naora's threat might have been effective. Unfortunately, his opponent was Lin Xiao. He did not need any recognition or inheritance. All he needed to do was capture Lin Xiao.
The Rubik's Cube of Fortune slowly rotated. With each rotation, Lin Xiao could feel a pure soul force mixed with an unknown wave of energy being injected into his soul. At the same time, the soul force was mixed with an incomparably profound wave of the Law of Time, which reverberated back and forth in his soul, which was formed by his crystal wall's origin shell, causing his thoughts to become incomparably chaotic.
He did not refine Naora like he usually did. Instead, he refined Naora and the Time Energy he controlled and absorbed it directly.
Soul Energy aside, he had absorbed a lot of it. Although Naora's Soul Energy was strong, it was not much to him. He absorbed and refined it directly.
The most important thing was the Time Energy. Even if the Tesseract could completely separate it from Naora's soul, it was not easy to capture.
Fortunately, his soul shell was the core shell of a Crystal Wall System's Origin Core. It had once contained the Origin Will of a massive Crystal Wall Universe, which was why it could contain the Power of Time. If it were an ordinary expert with his strength … he might not even be able to sense it.
Time was formless and intangible. If one's strength did not reach a certain level, they would not even be able to sense it.
Normally, Lin Xiao's strength did not reach that level and did not have the qualifications to come into contact with it. However, with the Tesseract and the Crystal Wall System's Origin Shell, everything was possible.
He did not need to refine it. As long as he bound it to his soul, it would naturally fuse with the Soul Shell of the Crystal Wall System's Origin Shell over time. It would become one with his soul, and he would naturally understand and control the Time Energy.
The Time Energy!
The Law that countless experts in the Chaos Void Sea dreamed of was right in front of him. Just thinking about it was enough to make him excited.
As the last strand of Naora's soul was refined, the Tesseract that was made up of countless souls was also refined. Only a speck of light was left. That was the amalgamation of Naora's memories.
At this point, the most wanted criminal in the Sea King Empire for hundreds of years was completely gone. He was gone forever.
Because he had grasped the power of time and had yet to fully grasp it, everything about him would disappear along with time the moment he fell. Therefore, even if there were powerful beings who were willing to go against the flow of time and travel up the Mother Stream, they would not be able to save him.
Well, except for the greater Divine Powers who had completely mastered the Law of Time!
However, he believed that no big shot who could control the Law of Time would save him, if there was one.
On the sea, Lin Xiao's figure turned into a shadow as he shuttled across the surface of the sea. He didn't dive into the sea to hide. The Sea Emperor's lock-on ability ignored space and matter. As long as he was in this world, he would be able to accurately lock on to him. This allowed him to confirm that the Sea Emperor was relying on the Origin Will of this world. There was an eighty to ninety percent chance that it was the founder of the Sea King Empire, the seventh-order Dragonwhale.
It was obvious that the founder of the empire was unwilling to die in the later stages of his life. He transformed the power of the empire and merged with his body, replacing the original Origin Will of this world.
The strength of the Sea King's World was not something the Gray Crow Men's World could compare to. Similarly, the Sea King's World replaced the Origin Will of the Gray Crow Men's World. Lin Xiao felt that it was too dangerous to stay in this world. Now that he had obtained the power of time and his own strength was strong enough, he basically had nothing to ask for in this world. He could leave now.
He was now heading towards the sea where he first came to the Sea King's World. He wanted to find the Space Crack that he used to come to this world and return to the world he first came to.
Compared to the Sea King's World that was full of enemies, the world he first came to was only a group of Children of Spirit. With his current strength, he could easily deal with them.
Perhaps there were top-notch experts among the Children of Spirit, but it was unlikely that there were any in that world. Moreover, he could escape if the situation was dire. When he reached the seventh order, he would not need the Space Crack to tear open the world's crystal wall and escape into the void. As long as he didn't look for trouble, he could fly anywhere he wanted.
As for the grudge with the Sea King Empire …
Did they have any grudges?
No.
They did not have any grudges. Instead, he was the one who took advantage from the beginning. When he first came to this world and joined the empire, he was entrusted with important tasks and obtained various resources. Later on, when he displayed his strength, he was feared. This was human nature. As an emperor, his actions were very normal.
Even when he was stripped of his power and status, he did not do anything to him.
And now, they became enemies because he snatched the spoils of war that the Sea King had been after for hundreds of years. The Sea King's current reaction was completely reasonable. To be honest, he was in the wrong.
He had taken advantage of them from the beginning to the end. Naturally, Lin Xiao was too embarrassed to turn around and complain. If he was not forced into a corner, it was even more impossible for him to counterattack. He was not an unreasonable protagonist who was more like a devil than a hero.
Of course, although he was in the wrong, he would definitely not return the things. It could only be said that the Sea King did not have that opportunity.
He only spent two days to find the Spatial Rift that he first came from. He was so fast that the Sea King did not even have time to react. He did not have time to mobilize the empire's experts and prepare. Even if he gave the order as quickly as possible, it would take more than two days for the experts stationed around the empire to arrive.
Lin Xiao came to the Spatial Rift that he first came to the Sea King's World. He pressed one hand on it to prevent the Sea King from destroying it.
He turned around and shouted, "I am indebted to Your Majesty for taking care of me all these years. This time, I owe Your Majesty a favor. If I have the chance and the ability in the future, I will definitely return it!"
After he finished speaking, he did not wait for the Sea King to respond and dived into the Spatial Rift. With a boom, the Spatial Rift exploded. The turbulent energy exploded and formed a huge bubble in the sea. It quickly shrank inward with a muffled sound. Countless sea creatures in the surrounding area were stunned and killed.
A formless force suppressed the swelling waves that were about to form. A huge face slowly appeared in the air and looked down. A rage was accumulating and waiting to be unleashed. The oppressive aura covered an area of tens of kilometers, but it did not subside for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, the inexplicable rage slowly disappeared. A dull voice echoed in the void.
"Remember your promise. You owe the Sea King Empire a favor!"
Lin Xiao, who was traveling through the Spatial Rift, was stunned for a second when he heard the Sea King's words through his own power. He then shook his head and smiled.
He had to admit that the current Sea King was a qualified ruler. Whether it was his breadth of mind or attitude, he was flexible. When he saw that things were not going his way, he decisively pursued the greatest benefits. He could let go of his hatred in the next second.
He passed through the Spatial Rift again. Compared to the last time, he was much more relaxed this time. The powerful pressure from traveling through the Spatial Rift was like a gentle breeze to him.
Although the Spatial Rift was relatively stable, it was not easy for a Rank 4 Magus or below to pass through.
As he gradually reached the end of the Spatial Rift, a spot of starlight appeared at the end of the dark Spatial Rift. It quickly expanded into a glaring gap until he reached out and pressed on the ever-changing shape of the sharp gap and jumped out.
"Bang!"
A tall figure appeared out of thin air and landed on the ground a few meters above the ground, kicking up a faint circle of dust.
"I'm back again!"
Lin Xiao raised his head and looked around. He took a deep breath. The air was filled with the smell of grass and the unique smell of the sea in the Sea King's World. It was fresher and more comfortable.
At this moment, Lin Xiao looked around. There were Spatial Rifts of various sizes hidden in the air. He could vaguely feel that there were gazes peeping from some of the rifts. He turned his head abruptly and looked in a certain direction. A gaze quickly disappeared from a rift suspended in the air more than ten meters above the ground.
"Hahaha …"
He laughed heartily and strode out of the Ancient Battlefield.
After leaving the Ancient Battlefield, he did not leave the wasteland. Instead, he found a place to hide in a remote and uninhabited wasteland. He was prepared to study and refine the power of time, as well as advance to Rank 7.
In a cave hundreds of meters above the ground, Lin Xiao set up a simple aura concealing spell formation. This was a simplified version of the spell formation he found in the Sea King's Empire.
He had left this world in a hurry and did not learn much about spell formations. After advancing to Rank 3, he did not learn any new spells. After advancing to Rank 3, he had continuously strengthened his original innate spells. The solidified innate spell, Moonshadow of the Wind Spirit, had been strengthened six times. Now, he had strengthened it to a ridiculous extent.
The original Moonshadow of the Wind Spirit was just a combination of several buffs. After many enhancements, especially the special enhancements in the later stages, coupled with the fusion of all the strength of his true body, and the combination of various characteristics, the current Moonshadow of the Wind Spirit had become a super buff spell that boosted all aspects. The amplification was extremely exaggerated. Even after advancing to Rank 6, the amplification was still very strong.
After advancing to Rank 6, Lin Xiao realized that the Magus path that he had chosen to continuously strengthen a single spiritual force core was actually not bad. To him, it might be more suitable than the traditional method of advancing to Rank 1 with only one spiritual force core.
Traditional Rank 6 Magi would have six innate spells. They would be more flexible and sufficient in using them, but their power would definitely not be as strong as the six enhancements of a single spell.
Anyway, he was now walking the path of condensing a true body. He did not need so many fancy spells that could not keep up with his strength. A spell that could greatly amplify his current strength was more useful than a hundred low-level spells.
Of course, this did not mean that he would not learn any spells in the future. If he had the chance, he would still learn some and re-derive a few functional spells to make up for his weaknesses. For example, the Magi's iconic teleportation spell would be very useful.
A few hundred years had passed, and the vast wasteland was still as barren as before. The area that Lin Xiao had chosen was very remote, so no one came to disturb him at all.
He sat quietly in the cave, and his will sank into his sea of consciousness, constantly touching the power of time!
