Qin Feng was unaware that the Spirit Clan had arrived; at this moment, he was fully focused on refining the Primordial Purple Qi.
The Primordial Purple Qi truly lives up to its reputation as a heaven-defying treasure that can increase the chances of breaking through to the Heavenly Dao Realm; it is extremely difficult to refine.
Qin Feng silently calculated the time. He had spent nearly ten hours, yet he had only refined one percent of this wisp of Primordial Purple Qi.
At this rate of refining, it would take him at least forty days to completely refine the Primordial Purple Qi.
If he had stayed in the cave to refine the Primordial Purple Qi, then he would have missed out on the opportunities within the World Tree space.
After all, powerful beings from all the realms are on their way!
However, after weighing the pros and cons, Qin Feng ultimately chose to continue his seclusion to refine the Primordial Purple Qi.
As I said before, when facing the powerful beings from all the worlds who are about to arrive, the only way to succeed is to increase your strength.
It's only about forty days. Even if it takes half a year, he will insist on completely refining and absorbing the Primordial Purple Qi.
...
Time flies like an arrow; in the blink of an eye, forty days have passed as quickly as flowing water.
Qin Feng's tightly closed eyes finally opened slowly at this moment, and a dazzling light flashed in his eyes, like the brightest star in the night sky.
After a long and arduous refining process, he finally succeeded in completely integrating the Primordial Purple Qi into himself, which qualitatively improved his strength.
In an instant, an incomparably powerful aura erupted from his body like a volcanic eruption, sweeping across the surroundings.
At this moment, Qin Feng's cultivation had already reached the peak of the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm, which was an astonishing achievement.
His combat power has increased at least tenfold compared to before, which can be described as a complete transformation and a significant increase in strength.
Qin Feng was very satisfied with the result, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
He slowly stood up, gently brushed off the dust from his clothes, and muttered to himself, "I wonder what the outside world is like now?"
"Forty days should be enough time for the powerful beings of all the heavens and myriad realms to get here, right?"
Just as Qin Feng lifted his foot, preparing to walk out of the cave, his steps suddenly seemed to be frozen by an invisible force, and he abruptly stopped in place.
His brow furrowed slightly, his gaze fixed ahead, as if he had discovered something unusual there.
After a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had discovered some precious treasure, and he muttered to himself, "Huh? There are actually laws of time here?"
Qin Feng's voice was filled with surprise and doubt. He remembered that when he first arrived at this place, he did not sense the existence of any laws of time.
However, he now felt the flow and changes of time so clearly that he couldn't help but begin to doubt his own memories.
"Strange, I remember when I first arrived here there were no laws governing time!"
Qin Feng murmured, "Could it be that I was careless?"
Just as he finished speaking, a clear, ethereal voice suddenly rang in his ears. "You're only realizing it now? Looks like I overestimated you!"
The voice echoed through the cave like a ghost, making it impossible to pinpoint its source.
"Who?" Qin Feng's expression instantly turned serious. He immediately looked around warily, trying to find the owner of the voice.
A moment later, a short, blue figure suddenly appeared in front of Qin Feng like a ghost, only about three meters away from him.
This sudden turn of events caught Qin Feng completely off guard, and he couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "Holy crap!"
Qin Feng's body trembled violently as if he had been electrocuted, and he instinctively took two steps back, creating some distance between himself and the figure in blue.
When he came to his senses and looked closely, he realized that the mysterious blue figure was actually a seven or eight-year-old boy.
However, the boy's appearance was unusually strange and creepy.
His skin had an eerie blue hue that stretched from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, without any trace of other colors.
Moreover, his eyes were even more astonishing—they were a dazzling gold!
"What are you?" Qin Feng's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the silent space.
However, the boy was not angered by Qin Feng's rudeness.
His face remained calm, even indifferent, and his deep eyes stared at Qin Feng like a still pond, without any ripples.
After a moment of silence, the boy spoke slowly, his voice clear and gentle, yet carrying an undeniable majesty: "I am the spirit of the World Tree—Xuan Guang."
"The World Tree's spirit?" Qin Feng frowned deeply, looking at Xuan Guang with suspicion, seemingly quite surprised by this statement. He couldn't help but ask, "Does the World Tree have a spirit?"
Xuan Guang smiled slightly and replied unhurriedly, "All things have a spirit, and the World Tree is no exception."
Qin Feng nodded thoughtfully, feeling that Xuan Guang's words made some sense.
However, his mind was still full of questions. His eyes flickered as he looked Xuan Guang up and down, and finally, unable to suppress his curiosity, he changed the subject, saying, "By the way, could the time laws in this cave be your creation?"
His suspicion stemmed from the fact that when he first arrived at the cave, he had carefully examined the surroundings and found no trace of the laws of time.
But now, Xuan Guang suddenly appeared and said those words, which made Qin Feng suspect that Xuan Guang had secretly laid down the Law of Time while he was focused on refining the Primordial Purple Qi.
However, Qin Feng really couldn't understand what Xuan Guang's purpose was in doing this.
Xuan Guang nodded. "Indeed, it was made by me!"
"As for my purpose, it's very simple: I want to help you!"
Upon hearing Xuan Guang's words, Qin Feng was taken aback at first, then asked with a puzzled look, "How can you use the Time Law here to help me?"
"And what is your purpose in doing this?"
"It couldn't have been just out of kindness, could it?"
Xuan Guang glanced at Qin Feng and smiled. "I'll answer your first question first!"
"The laws of time can alter the flow of time here; one day outside is equivalent to forty days here!"
"What?" Qin Feng's eyes widened. "Doesn't that mean I've been here for forty days, while only one day has passed outside?"
Xuan Guang nodded. "That's exactly right!"
"As for why I did this, it's because I don't want you to miss the opportunities within the World Tree space!"
"The only reason I helped you was because I found you pleasing to the eye!"
