Chapter 807: Taiyin Ancient Tomb Emerges

Although the Taiyin Ancient Tomb shrouded the entire area, it still actively selected the Cultivators who could enter. Factions like the War Dragon Academy possessed exceptional qualifications and fortuitous encounters, allowing them to enter in advance. The moment the phantom shadows appeared and the shrill screams echoed, the vast majority of the War Dragon Academy’s geniuses had already entered that stretch of void.

Subsequently, as the Taiyin Ancient Tomb continued to change, the time flow within the void would experience an abnormal delay. It could be three to five years, or perhaps even a decade. However, the time in the outside world would not undergo significant changes. At most, only three to five days would pass. In other words, entering the Taiyin Ancient Tomb early to grow alongside the Time Law within was the path to a true transformation. Therefore, these three to five days of external time were of paramount importance. For such a profound opportunity, entities like the Immortal Phoenix Peacock Lineage would undoubtedly expend massive resources to pry open the gates of the Taiyin Ancient Tomb, ensuring their core members could step into that world.

The Heaven-Reaching Tower was about to close.

Ye Tianling had already completed his hunt for Fierce Beasts within the True Void Divine Realm. He had long since transformed the Battle Power Dao Patterns of his Three Souls and Seven Spirits to the level of a Hundred Battle Power Dao Patterns. The Second Heaven World of the True Void Divine Realm was the Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Cave. In the territory of the Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Cave, Ye Tianling had virtually swept through one of the Demon Beast Demon Ridges, taking very little time to do so. Having mastered the Transformation Technique for his Battle Power Dao Patterns, he completed this evolution with practically no difficulty. After condensing a hundred Battle Power Dao Patterns, his combat execution reached sixty-three tenths of his maximum potential. Even so, the overall increase in his Battle Power was not particularly obvious.

At the same time, Yuan Haoning had similarly completed her transformation into the Sword Tribulation Second Refining Realm. Having survived two Celestial Tribulations under Ye Tianling’s hands-on guidance, she had achieved excellent growth. Ye Tianling opened up a Secret Realm area for Yuan Haoning, allowing her to peacefully cultivate inside. With this done, all the trivial matters surrounding Ye Tianling had been settled.

At this moment, after Ye Tianling teleported out of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, he immediately carved a Void Array and teleported into a secluded valley area.

It was an evil cavern area teeming with countless Ancient Demon Spirits. Demon Spirits were unique lifeforms born from the fusion of resentment and sinister energy. Ye Tianling had found this place by relying on the Ability of his Eye of Celestial Secret, along with a faint, unseen guidance from Yanyan. After slaughtering a massive number of Demon Spirits and acquiring the corresponding foundational energy, Ye Tianling used the Demon Spirit Origin energy to converge his Emperor Patterns. The terrifying backlash he was originally meant to suffer naturally dissipated. The power of the Demon Spirits acted like a very bizarre Dark Matter Energy, making the condensation of his Emperor Patterns much easier.

Thus, the moment the changes manifested between Heaven and Earth, in the exact instant the Heaven-Reaching Tower closed, Ye Tianling had already activated his Emperor Patterns to shroud himself and force a teleportation. As expected, this process encountered significant constraints and was far from smooth. In the end, Ye Tianling had to repeatedly envelop Yuan Haoning with the power of the Demon Spirits before the teleportation process could finally be completed.

Ye Tianling and Yuan Haoning could be considered the first batch of Cultivators to enter the Taiyin Ancient Tomb. Moreover, the location the two arrived at was the very core of the Time Axis—deep within the ancient tomb itself. Inside the tomb, it was utterly desolate. Chaos permeated everywhere. However, after Ye Tianling entered, Time Law Fragments shimmering like fireflies materialized completely and fluttered all around them. Yuan Haoning was clearly unable to withstand this power. After inexplicably being shaken out of the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower, she fell into a comatose state; the entire ordeal was incredibly dangerous. It was only after Ye Tianling sent her back into the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower that her condition improved.

Having done this, Ye Tianling breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, his body and mind suddenly entered an indescribably tranquil state. At that moment, it felt as if an unknown Spiritual force had descended upon him. Heaven and Earth suddenly became absolutely silent.

"Ye Tianling..."

Yanyan’s figure suddenly flew out from the center of Ye Tianling’s brow. Ye Tianling was stunned. He stared blankly at the breathtakingly beautiful Yanyan, dressed in a stunning Flame Gauze Skirt, as she floated quietly in front of him. He was completely dumbfounded. Yanyan had actually appeared? Ye Tianling felt an inexplicable surrealness as his heart suddenly surged with fiery excitement.

"Flaming Empress..." Ye Tianling murmured, his eyes filled with unspeakable emotion.

"The Time Axis is the only absolute. Control Time, and everything else can be controlled. We have all failed. The path to seeking the Dao... now relies on you," Yanyan said, but her figure quickly disappeared.

Unable to hold back, Ye Tianling stepped forward and reached out to embrace her, but he only managed to hug a cluster of Time Law Fragments. Those fragments looked as tangible as fireflies, but the moment he embraced them, they slipped past him like thin air. They were like clusters of bubbles—beautiful but completely insubstantial. This was a bizarre and surreal Space; an exceedingly dark, yet profoundly mystical dream World. Likewise, it was an incredibly strange World where Time did not flow.

Ye Tianling did not know how long he could exist here. But he knew that Yanyan’s appearance and the words she left behind definitely held an eternal ’true meaning’. Ye Tianling thought of his origins—his true origins as someone from Earth... Gradually, a sense of enlightenment dawned on him.

He pondered, "They all failed. The path to seeking the Dao... What Dao am I seeking? The future of the Immortal Buddha Divine Clan? Or... some other Dao? Can the Time Axis truly be controlled?"

For a brief moment, Ye Tianling felt lost, but he quickly recovered, his conviction growing even firmer.

"Yanyan, it seems... I truly cannot forget you," Ye Tianling murmured, yet his gaze was exceptionally resolute, and his conviction burned even brighter.

"I will definitely forge a path to seeking the Dao. I will never let you down!" Ye Tianling took a deep breath, making this promise once again, word by word.

It took a long while for him to snap out of this state, leaving him with a deep sense of melancholy. He stopped wandering around and simply sat down cross-legged on the spot. Watching the Time Law Fragments dancing between Heaven and Earth, his mind gradually grew peaceful and entered a state of Void Spirit. He began to meditate, meditating on the Chaos Destiny Scripture, and started to comprehend the Celestial Dao Rule Domain. Very quickly, Ye Tianling immersed himself entirely in the comprehension of this Celestial Dao Rule Domain. At the same time, the Time Law and the Space Law began to circulate autonomously inside and outside Ye Tianling’s body, forming Dao Rhyme Flowing Light and Law Resonance.

Ye Tianling’s body began to glow. These lights formed a tight synergy and connection with the Dao Rhyme Fragments fluttering between Heaven and Earth. At that moment, a massive number of Time Law Fragments, akin to swimming fish, actually swam toward the water-like Dao Rhyme halo surrounding Ye Tianling.

This was a truly world-shocking fortuitous encounter; these were incredibly pure Time Law Fragments! Every single one of them contained a vast amount of Time Law Profound Meaning!
