Lin Che looked closely at the special system item.
That turned out to be a special totemistic power.
[The Eternal Time Curse: A curse of immortality born from the power of time. Practicing this curse allows the practitioner to halt the flow of time and lifespan, granting them eternal life; they can walk unaffected by the river of time. Price: Killing Intent Points, Skill Points. Note: Practicing this technique requires fusing at least ten thousand Time Sands!]
"This is coming for me!"
Lin Che was well aware of the system's characteristics; he knew that to trigger a certain item, he had to possess the necessary qualifications.
This "Eternal Time Curse" is something he absolutely must learn; otherwise, he would never be able to embark on the journey through time.
However, while Lin Che was happy, he was also a little annoyed. He had finally obtained more than 30,000 Time Sands, and now he had to give away 10,000 of them. He had originally planned to select a group of human cultivators to have them comprehend this power of time, but it seemed that this would not be possible.
"Hmm? The next one is also one I want!"
Unexpectedly, the items refreshed in the system shop this time are so amazing.
All of these were things he desperately needed.
The last item was actually about the Dao of Cause and Effect.
[Causal Aura: Practicing this technique allows one to sense the causal power within an opponent to a certain extent. Price: Killing Intent Points, Skill Points!]
"Buy! Buy them all! Learn them all!"
Lin Che is now very wealthy and bought all the items in the system shop in one go.
Buzz!
A stream of light appeared out of thin air and flowed directly into his mind; this was the Eternal Time Curse.
Lin Che felt an unprecedented power of time within his body. It seemed that if he used it properly, he could continuously consume the sand of time to extend his lifespan.
"In a sense, as long as I possess the Sands of Time, I am immortal!"
Of course, immortality is only theoretical; if nothing unexpected happens, it is indeed possible for him. But just like many ninth-rank cultivators can live to be eight or nine hundred years old, or even a thousand years old without any problem.
However, often within a few years, such a ninth-rank cultivator would be killed in a battle.
After practicing the "Eternal Life Time Mantra", he began to practice the "Karma Aura"!
As soon as this "causal aura" entered his mind, Lin Che immediately felt the causal aura emanating from his true spirit world.
It's almost as if he installed a radar inside his own body.
"Why does my true spirit world have an aura of cause and effect?"
Lin Che casually opened the gate to the True Spirit Small World. Inside, the sky was still filled with thunderous roars, and the Thunder Dragon, Golden Dragon, and the power of the Heavenly Dao seemed to be still fighting.
Lin Che didn't have time to pay attention to them right now; he simply grabbed a few pieces of Time Sand with his hand.
That aura of cause and effect emanates from the sands of time.
"These grains of Time Sand are what I obtained in the Thousand-Year Secret Realm. It turns out that someone planted the Great Dao of Cause and Effect in them. However, I still cannot sense who the other party is?"
Lin Che could have directly erased the aura of these causal Daos, but he didn't, leaving them as they might have other uses.
He then took out more than half of the Giant Spirit Rice and casually closed the door to the True Spirit Small World.
Whoosh!
Lin Che flashed and appeared directly in the Dao Asking Academy.
Here, almost all the key figures who had been notified had arrived and were just waiting for him.
"Greetings, Holy Master!"
With a whoosh, almost all the cultivators bowed and paid their respects when they saw Lin Che appear.
Only two people did not bow in greeting. One was Mu Li Rusheng, who never advocated excessive formalities. Given his relationship with Lin Che, he did not need to be overly polite.
The other one is His Majesty Jiang Li.
When Lin Che saw Jiang Li again, he was stunned. He never expected that Jiang Li was only seven or eight years old.
Although she was still wearing imperial robes, she was clearly a little emperor.
The stunning beauty she once possessed, the unparalleled charm that captivated the world, is gone; her youthful face is now filled with a naive and immature expression.
As Lin Che stared directly at Jiang Li, Jiang Li also stared back at Lin Che without blinking.
Compared to the last time we met, the time we spent apart wasn't too long.
Lin Che's temperament has changed dramatically compared to before; he now seems to have returned to his true self.
"You're back!" Jiang Li said in a childish voice.
"Hmm!" Lin Che wanted to ask why things had changed so much in such a short time, but he held back.
He knew very well that it was because of the "Great Emperor's True Scripture," and now that he had cultivated the "causal aura," he could sense it even more.
A golden vine extended from Jiang Li's back, reaching into the void.
This must be because, in some past era, a powerful emperor was constantly absorbing everything about Jiang Li through the means of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect.
Lin Che's gaze swept across the crowd, and he spoke first: "Everyone! I've returned today because I have something important to discuss with you all!"
Li Zhenjiang's three eyes radiated a sense of authority as he spoke in a loud voice: "You mean the Demon Clan is going to invade? We are fully prepared."
"This is just one small thing."
Lin Che's voice was calm, and everyone fell silent. They seemed to know that what Lin Che was about to say would shock them.
"The most terrifying enemy we face is not the Demon King, nor the Buddha of Buddhism. It is—a powerful ancestor who lived thousands of years ago!"
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
The crowd erupted in uproar.
Zhao Chongyang spoke in a deep voice: "Our ancestors from the past? You mean, the curse of cause and effect?"
They were all key figures, and naturally they had heard about the concept of "cause and effect," but they had never been willing to believe it.
The demigod Ji Bu also spoke up, asking, "Aren't all those people from thousands of years ago dead? If they are still alive now, where can we find them? Also, since they are our ancestors, why would they harm us?"
This question is actually quite naive.
Everyone here is a strong person who has witnessed far too many grudges and has the capacity to slaughter an entire family for any reason.
But this is precisely the question that everyone wants to know.
Lin Che knew that a simple explanation wouldn't be very intuitive for everyone, so he simply said to Jiang Li:
“I see the cause and effect in your case. If you agree, I want everyone to see it.”
“Okay!” Jiang Li nodded, seemingly eager to see what the legendary cause and effect were like.
Lin Che circulated his "causal aura" and gently pointed at Jiang Li's forehead.
Buzz!!
Then, the golden vine behind Jiang Li appeared...
