Chapter 948 The Power of Time

The Three-Eyed Emperor did not ask Lin Yun how he knew about this matter, because he remembered that the Blood Emperor of that time seemed to be a ghost cultivator who had acquired his powers. So, what kind of powerful being was the Blood Emperor in his previous life?

The timeline of the Great World of Living Beings is over a billion years ago... which seems to be the time before the Blood Emperor became a ghost cultivator. The fact that the Blood Emperor knows such advanced matters suggests that when he was a powerful being among living beings, he was not a weakling either!

In fact, the Blood Emperor at that time might have been a legendary God-level expert in the Great World of Living Beings. Otherwise, how could he have known so many secrets about the God-level expert level?

However, the Three-Eyed Emperor knew his limits. He knew what he could ask and what he couldn't. Since the Blood Emperor hadn't told him, he naturally couldn't ask about such things.

"I wonder if Your Majesty the Blood Emperor could tell me the location of the ruins of the Three-Eyed God Clan? I would be eternally grateful..." The Three-Eyed Emperor thought for a moment, then bowed to Lin Yun again and said respectfully.

“Even if those places are still intact, the environment there is no longer suitable for cultivation by experts at the Divine Realm. But they are still the remnants of the Three-Eyed God Clan. It’s hard to say whether there are still experts at the Divine Realm watching over them. Ghost cultivators and living beings are naturally opposed, and the strength of ghost cultivators in the realm of living beings will be suppressed. It may not be safe for you to go there…” Lin Yun frowned slightly and said.

"The worst that can happen is that I perish. I am confident that I will enter the cycle of reincarnation when I perish. If I succeed, I will have a chance to enter the God Realm in the future. If I fail, it is only a matter of time before I enter the cycle of reincarnation again." The Three-Eyed Emperor said with a faint smile.

He has already reached the peak of the Saint King realm, and he does not wish to remain at the peak of the Saint King realm for the rest of his life.

“That’s true.” Lin Yun nodded. He was a cultivator himself and knew the mindset of cultivators who pursued endless realms. The Three-Eyed Emperor was no ordinary ghost cultivator. Knowing that there were still realms ahead, yet remaining inactive was not the character of such a cultivator.

“That works out perfectly. According to the timeline of the Great World of Living Beings, I have some business to attend to there in a few days. At that time, I will also visit the remaining sites of those Three-Eyed Gods to see if they still exist and if there are any dangers. I will then come back and tell you, and you can make your decision then, how about that?” Lin Yun thought for a moment and said.

"Your Majesty the Blood Emperor is so kind, I am deeply grateful!" The Three-Eyed Emperor's eyes lit up, and he bowed again. Undoubtedly, the Blood Emperor's actions greatly increased his safety.

Although he was one of the top ghost cultivators in the Netherworld, and many ghost cultivators even considered him the number one ghost cultivator in the Netherworld when there was no news of the Blood Emperor, he himself had not been to the Great World of Living Beings much, so he was not very familiar with it.

If he were to rely solely on the addresses given to him by the Blood Emperor and have to find them on his own, who knows what might happen.

Now that the Blood Emperor has promised to scout out a path for him first, it couldn't be better.

"This is the address. If I go there this time and don't come back, you may go alone as you see fit!" Lin Yun nodded slightly and sent a message to the Three-Eyed Emperor.

The Three-Eyed Emperor received the message, which contained several addresses and detailed instructions on how to get there and what precautions to take.

However, he then realized what Lin Yun had said and exclaimed in surprise, "Blood Emperor, what are you doing...?"

Why does the Blood Emperor's tone sound like he's giving his last words? Of course, he's not close to the Blood Emperor, so even if the Blood Emperor were giving his last words, it wouldn't be his place to receive them!

However, there's something unsettling about the message conveyed in those words!

"In this vast world of living beings, there are countless powerful beings, so anything can happen. I'm just telling you the address in case of any unforeseen circumstances..." Lin Yun said with a slight smile.

Although Lin Yun spoke lightly, the Three-Eyed Emperor could still tell from Lin Yun's tone that things were not as simple as Lin Yun made them out to be. He opened his mouth, intending to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.

According to the information he obtained from Guomuboer, the Blood Emperor, who was already so powerful in the World of Living Beings, was already at the level of a superior Saint King. Now, the Blood Emperor has broken through to the level of a mid-level Saint King and has such heaven-defying power in the Netherworld. If he were to go to the Great World of Living Beings, how powerful would he be?

On the other hand, his strength in the Netherworld was far inferior to that of the Blood Emperor. If he were to go to the Great World of Living Beings, his strength would be greatly reduced, and he would probably not be a match for the Blood Emperor.

If even the Blood Emperor is in danger, his presence would likely be of no use whatsoever.

However, he was very grateful. Under such circumstances, the fact that the Blood Emperor still remembered his affairs was no ordinary act of kindness.

If he hadn't thought that the gap between his strength and that of the Blood Emperor was too great, and that he might be of no use to the Blood Emperor, he would have wanted to ask to follow the Blood Emperor. But he was too embarrassed to say such a thing.

This gave him the feeling of actively trying to climb up the social ladder and taking advantage of the Blood Emperor.

Speaking of which, we must say that the Three-Eyed Emperor had misunderstood.

He thought that since Lin Yun was a living being in this life, his strength was suppressed in the Netherworld. If he was this strong in the Netherworld, he should be even stronger in the living being world. The information he got from Guomuboer also misled him.

Little did they know that Lin Yun's strength in the Realm of Living Beings was so great because he had refined the last three heavens of that Realm of Living Beings. If he hadn't been in that Realm of Living Beings, but had instead entered the Great Realm of Living Beings, Lin Yun's strength would have dropped by at least two levels.

Conversely, Lin Yun's strength in the Netherworld was not suppressed. On the contrary, because Lin Yun had broken through the eighth level of the Netherworld in his previous life, his strength in the Netherworld was even stronger. With Lin Yun breaking through four more levels, the increase in his strength in the Netherworld was more than just one level.

If Lin Yun were to go to the Great World of Living Beings, without the amplification of various powers from the Netherworld, his strength would drop by at least one level. At that time, even if Lin Yun's strength was comparable to that of an invincible Saint King being in the Great World of Living Beings, he would not be much stronger than an ordinary invincible Saint King being.

"The Blood Emperor is benevolent and righteous..."

"The Blood Emperor is of noble character..."

"This is a rare sight in the Netherworld..."

The surrounding ghost cultivators, witnessing this scene, also expressed their feelings.

Perhaps because the ghost cultivators come from many different worlds, or perhaps because they have all experienced death and harbor a sense of resentment, the atmosphere in the Netherworld is not very good.

There are too many selfish people. As the saying goes, "One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black." Even though there are still many innate ghost cultivators in the Netherworld, they cannot change this trend. On the contrary, they are greatly influenced by it.

People as benevolent and righteous as the Blood Emperor are truly rare.

"By the way, Blood Emperor, you said earlier that there was something else you needed my help with. I wonder what it is, but it requires my Divine Eye ability. If so, please feel free to give your orders, Blood Emperor..." Right there, the Three-Eyed Emperor suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said.

He couldn't think of anything to repay the Blood Emperor. After thinking about it, he realized that his Divine Eye ability was rather special. Just now, the Blood Emperor seemed to be studying his Divine Eye ability as well.

"Your Divine Eye ability is indeed somewhat useful to me. I wonder if there are any restrictions when you use your Divine Eye ability?" Lin Yun nodded slightly and said. As he said this, he released an isolation layer to separate himself from the Three-Eyed Emperor and the ghost cultivators.

In this way, the surrounding ghost cultivators would not be able to hear or see his communication with the Three-Eyed Emperor. The Divine Eye Divine Power was ultimately the Three-Eyed Emperor's trump card, so Lin Yun could not casually reveal the relevant information.

Previously, he did not use an isolation layer when communicating with the Three-Eyed Emperor, simply to reassure the Three-Eyed Emperor and prevent the surrounding ghost cultivators from misunderstanding anything, so as to avoid difficulties in communication later.

Now that the purpose of this matter has probably been achieved, and he has initially established trust with the Three-Eyed Emperor, there is no need for further action.

Seeing this, the surrounding ghost cultivators were not surprised at all. They were all very understanding and even had a better impression of Lin Yun. They felt that the Blood Emperor was more considerate of them and made them feel safer.

Subsequently, many ghost cultivators stopped paying attention to the exchange between Lin Yun and the Three-Eyed Emperor and buried themselves in cultivation again.

The new Heaven has just been built, and a lot of pure heaven and earth energy still exists in this space. In addition, the environment, time flow, and other factors of the Thirty-Seventh Heaven are far superior to those of the lower Heavens. Such conditions are extremely precious, so they naturally want to cultivate here as much as possible.

Cultivation requires seizing every moment of daily life to practice. Otherwise, if you waste time recklessly, even the best talent will be wasted, and you will not achieve much in the end. In fact, you will not achieve as much as a diligent but average-talented cultivator.

“Well… Under normal circumstances, I can only use the Divine Eye Divine Power three times in a short period of time. If I use it again, it will damage my essence. I can only use it a maximum of six times before I can no longer use it, otherwise my life will be in danger. If I use it three times without damaging my essence, I will need about ten years to recover…” Seeing Lin Yun use the isolation layer, the Three-Eyed Emperor felt somewhat grateful. Then, he thought for a moment and said.

Ten years is a very short time for cultivators of their level. Under normal circumstances, even powerful individuals like them might not have a single battle that they would take seriously in a million, ten million, or even a hundred million years.

In normal combat, the Three-Eyed Emperor only needs to use normal attacks.

Therefore, the Divine Eye Divine Power can be used three times every ten years. For the Three-Eyed Emperor, this is already enough to deal with many battle situations. If he encounters a critical battle, it is not impossible for him to use it four, five, or six times in a row, even at the risk of damaging his own essence.

"Three times in ten years?" Lin Yun frowned slightly.

He only had a few days in the Great World of Living Beings. The time flow rate in the Netherworld from the 37th to the 40th Heaven was 100,000 times different from that in the Great World of Living Beings, which was hundreds of thousands of days.

In other words, he could stay in the Netherworld for about a thousand years, or perhaps even longer, but he couldn't help but guard against any unforeseen events. The sooner he went to the Great World of Living Beings, the more at ease he would feel.

He can use it three times in ten years, and three hundred times in a thousand years. But whether this number is enough to satisfy his needs is unknown.

However, he discovered that he could use the Three-Eyed Emperor's divine power to condense a trace of time power early on, which would be very beneficial for him when he broke through the bottleneck of the God Realm in the future. If that was all, he would not be in a hurry.

Rather, if he were to encounter a powerful being at the God Realm during his journey to the Great World of Living Beings, this item could potentially save his life.

Just like in the ordinary world, if you take an ordinary wooden stick and an ordinary iron stick and fight them head-on, the wooden stick will hardly win. This is due to the difference in quality. However, if you attach an iron spearhead to the wooden stick, the wooden stick's lethality will increase greatly.

The saying "good steel should be used on the blade" applies here as well.

The power of time is like an "iron spearhead" or "good steel".

A powerful being in the Divine Realm can use the power of time. If Lin Yun cannot use the power of time, he will be at a great disadvantage when he encounters such a powerful being. However, if Lin Yun can also use the power of time, even if it is only a trace, based on his powerful experience as the Crown Prince of the Divine Clan, he believes that as long as he does not encounter a powerful being in the Divine Realm, he can handle it.

In this way, his trip to the Great World of Living Beings will be much safer.

“If the Blood Emperor needs a large amount in a short time, the Three-Eyed Emperor can use it a few more times. Even if the source is slightly damaged, it will only take some time to recover…” Seeing Lin Yun’s expression, the Three-Eyed Emperor said.

"It's not something that can be done in a short time," Lin Yun shook his head.

He needs a thousand years. If it's a short time, the Three-Eyed Emperor will use it more often, damaging too much of his essence. He might not be able to use it for a long time afterward, which would be a loss.

Most importantly, he didn't know exactly how many times the Three-Eyed Emperor would use his Divine Eye Power to refine a similar amount of Time Power, so it was difficult to set a standard.

Therefore, the more times the Three-Eyed Emperor can use his divine eye powers, the better.

“Actually, it’s not impossible to speed up the recovery process…” Seeing Lin Yun shake his head, the Three-Eyed Emperor hesitated slightly.

"Hmm?" Lin Yun looked at the Three-Eyed Emperor.

"If my environment were better, or if I had powerful natural treasures to help me recover, my recovery speed would be faster. For example, in the environment I was in recently, it only took me a little over a month to recover the energy I had used to cast the Divine Eye Divine Power three times. Actually, I have some natural treasures stored up, but I can only use the Divine Eye Divine Power a dozen or so more times at most, and then I can't do it any more..." the Three-Eyed Emperor said hesitantly.

He hadn't said it before because he didn't want to give the Blood Emperor the impression that he was asking for favors. He really didn't have that intention. However, the matter was true, so he had no choice but to speak up.

"Oh?" Lin Yun's eyes lit up slightly.

Indeed, two months ago, the Three-Eyed Emperor had used the Divine Eye Divine Power three times. After cultivating here for two months, the Three-Eyed Emperor can use the Divine Eye Divine Power three more times without harming his essence.

Like other cultivators' innate supernatural abilities, most of them have normal and abnormal ways of recovering from their depletion.

If he could offer the Three-Eyed Emperor better conditions, the Three-Eyed Emperor would be able to unleash his divine eye powers more often within a thousand years.
