Monarch Of Time

Chapter 563 - 563 Time Siphon (2)

The old manʼs eyes had a disbelieving look inside them, as he clearly sensed the weak aura coming from Shun Longʼs body increasing at an extremely rapid rate.

In the beginning, the old man could feel that Shun Long only had less than 30 percent of his qi left while the old man had a little more than 40 percent. Thus, with him being a Dao King realm expert and Shun Long having expended a larger amount of his qi to take care of his ʼWind bullʼ, the old man knew that even if his fight with Shun Long wasnʼt easy, he was still the one who had the upper hand right now.

However, the moment that his gaze landed on Shun Longʼs body, the old man could clearly feel Shun Longʼs weakened aura that was ʼrecoveringʼ extremely quickly.

In just a few moments, his aura which made it painfully obvious previously that Shun Long only had 30 percent of his qi remaining, quickly exceeded the old manʼs without showing any signs of stopping.

Although both Shun Long and the black-robed old man were still at the early rank 1 of the Heaven grade, anyone who landed their eyes on the 2 of them could feel that the amount of qi inside their bodies wasnʼt the same.

In just a couple of seconds, Shun Longʼs qi seemed to have recovered to more than 80 percent, leaving behind a dumbfounded black-robed Dao King who was staring at him with a gaze filled with shock and even fear.

With both of his ʼMonarchʼs Domainsʼ still active around him, one of them increasing his speed while the other one was slowing down the old man, Shun Long instantly shot forward at full speed as he headed towards the old man.

There was no way that he would simply allow the old man to barrage him with his attacks without responding.

At that moment however, the old man simply gritted his teeth before he said in an angry tone

ʼʼBrat, you better pray that you donʼt face me the next time or I swear I will make you suffer!

...Damn! If I knew that my ʼRaging wind bullʼ wouldnʼt be any effective I wouldnʼt have wasted so much of my qi for it!ʼʼ

As he finished speaking, the old man didnʼt wait for Shun Long to arrive in front of him before he decisively cut off the connection between himself and his token, causing his body to turn into motes of light that started to disappear from the palace hall!

Shun Long stared at the ʼpridefulʼ Dao King who retreated so shamelessly with a dumbfounded gaze, before he sat back down on the floor a few moments later and observed the motes of light that were entering inside his purple token one after the other.

The moment that he cut off the connection with his token, Shun Long once again heard the deep, rumbling sound coming from behind him, as the large door opened automatically.

Without any hesitation, he stood up as he walked out of the room, walking back towards the first floor, obviously having no more intentions to stay in the Dao Tower any longer.

Shun Long knew that he only had 2 more days until he met with Liu Mei and the rest in front of the Holy sectʼs entrance, and he was curious to see how much stronger everyone else had grown as well during this past month.

It was better for him to spend the next 2 days cultivating inside an inn, and solidifying his advancement in his comprehension of his Dao of Time!

Naturally, his gains from the Dao Tower in the past 2 weeks were more than most people would get if they fought here continuously for months or even years! Just this last fight against the black-robed old man was enough to make everything during the past 2 weeks worth it.

What the black-robed Dao King didnʼt know before he retreated from the palace hall, was that him creating the ʼRaging wind bullʼ through his Dao of Wind actually pushed Shun Long into a state of enlightenment and deeper understanding, allowing him to comprehend his Dao of Time even further.

Otherwise, it was unknown if Shun Long would be able to increase the comprehension of his Dao so quickly, even if he spent a full month inside the Dao Tower.

Entering a state of enlightenment wasnʼt something that cultivators could do so at will! It was a chance that rarely came, and a cultivator needed to be lucky enough to grasp it!

With a joyous smile on his face, Shun Long headed towards an inn at the heart of the city and rented a small courtyard to spend the next 2 days.

Although his comprehension hadnʼt reached the standard of a Dao King yet, it was now infinitely close to reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

However, what Shun Long was most excited about wasnʼt just his comprehension of the Dao of Time that was increasing, but also the new skill that he had comprehended, the ʼTime Siphonʼ.

This skill allowed him to absorb the ʼtimeʼ in everything else around him and use it for himself!

In essence, he could actually ʼstealʼ the time inside every living and non-living being, including the lifespan in a cultivatorʼs body.

This was the feeling that the black-robed Dao King had felt that had made him horrified.

Shun Longʼs ʼtime siphonʼ was trying to steal his remaining lifespan!

If Shun Long had managed to do it successfully, he could steal the lifespan of the old man and absorb it for himself.

The old man was extremely happy that his comprehension of his Dao of Wind was far above Shun Longʼs comprehension of his own Dao, so regardless of how strong Shun Long was or how peculiar his Dao was, he couldnʼt casually steal the life of a Dao King without him retaliating!

As long as the old man protected himself with his Dao of Wind, Shun Long would find it almost impossible to break through his defense using his ʼTime Siphonʼ.
