The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004 Promotion Assessment

The Moro Time Tower activated by Divine Crystals indeed has a better effect.

Back in the low-class world, Jing Yan didn’t use the Moro Time Tower often, mainly because the energy consumption was too high. Moreover, during the few times he used the tower, Jing Yan only activated it with top-grade Spirit Stones.

Jing Yan simply couldn’t bring himself to use Divine Crystals to activate the Moro Time Tower.

It wasn’t until he reached the God Realm, obtained many Divine Crystals, and coupled the rewards from the ranking competition and Qingmu Department—adding up to a full seven hundred thousand Divine Crystals—that Jing Yan didn’t mind consuming some. This also led Jing Yan to the surprising discovery that the Moro Time Tower’s ability to alter the flow of time is not fixed. Top-grade Spirit Stones can accelerate the time flow in a specific area by five times, while First-Level Divine Crystals achieve ten times.

What if he used Second-Level Divine Crystals or even higher-level Divine Crystals?

And what if he had Law Crystals?

The prowess of the Moro Time Tower clearly exceeds Jing Yan’s previous perception of it, no wonder the chief guard in the Death Temple said that even in the God Realm, mighty figures covet this treasure.

Gathering his thoughts, Jing Yan did not delay further and immediately began cultivating with the Fire Origin.

Spiritual Energy and Laws continuously poured into the Qiankun Small World.

Of course, Jing Yan also absorbed the energy contained in Divine Crystals and Heavenly Repairing Pills.

Being at the Five-star Void God level, the First-Level Divine Crystals and Heavenly Repairing Pills are not very effective for Jing Yan anymore. Fortunately, he currently possesses a large number of First-Level Divine Crystals and Heavenly Repairing Pills, plus the speciality of the Divine Spring Hall, barely satisfying his needs.

Outside the Divine Spring Hall of the Qingmu Department.

”That newcomer just joined Qingmu Department and immediately entered Divine Spring Hall for cultivation?”

”How come he doesn’t need to queue?”

”This doesn’t follow the rules, does it?”

Some members of Qingmu Department frowned with dissatisfaction upon seeing Jing Yan, a new member, enter the Divine Spring Hall.

However, no one directly protested to Director Gong Luo.

But after a day, seeing Jing Yan wasn’t sent out, their dissatisfaction began to surface.

How come that newcomer was cultivating in the Divine Spring Hall for a day and still hasn’t been sent out when the time was up?

Could it be that this newcomer is using the Divine Spring Hall for more than a day?

The murmurs grew in number and intensity.

After several days, someone finally couldn’t help but started questioning several Qingmu Department Stewards.

Director Gong Luo appeared personally and only said one thing.

”If you can defeat Kuo Shen, who ranks within a thousand on the Tianhua List, then you also can increase your time using the Divine Spring Hall.” That was all Gong Luo said.

This single statement immediately silenced those dissatisfied voices. Qingmu Department members began inquiring about Jing Yan’s situation. When they heard Jing Yan defeated the Five-star Void God Kuo Shen with three sword strikes during the selection assessment, they fell silent.

No matter where, strength is king. If you want others to shut up, just have enough strength; it’s very simple. This same logic applies in Luo Jiu Divine Palace, in Qingmu Department.

A month later.

With the time acceleration of the Moro Time Tower, Jing Yan cultivated for ten months and advanced to the Six-star Void God level.

The number of laws he comprehended exceeded ten thousand, with nearly ninety percent being Fire Attribute Principles.

With the aid of Fire Origin, Jing Yan’s speed in comprehending Fire Laws was unparalleled, incomparable to other laws.

As the number of laws exceeded ten thousand, Jing Yan felt a vague sense of unease.

He had comprehended too many Fire Attribute Principles.

The other laws were lagging; if this continued, it might become a hidden threat to his growth.

Suppressing his reluctance, Jing Yan gritted his teeth and decisively chose to temporarily abandon using the Fire Origin to focus on comprehending the other four attribute principles.

Though the count of the other four attribute principles doesn’t necessarily need to match the Fire Attribute Principles, the disparity can’t be too vast.

Continued cultivation.

Three months is indeed very short. Without the Moro Time Tower’s tenfold acceleration, it would be even shorter.

With the Moro Time Tower’s accelerated time, Jing Yan cultivated for a total of thirty months. His realm in Martial Arts is now at the top of the Six-star Void God, just one step away from advancing to Seven Stars.

However, the Seven-star Void God, is termed as High-level Void god. Between Six and Seven Stars lies quite a challenging barrier.

Take Director Gong Luo for example; they are just Seven-star Void God and Eight-star Void God.

For a newcomer like Jing Yan to be a top-tier Six-star Void God, it’s already remarkably astonishing.

As his cultivation time was about to end, Jing Yan flew out of the Qiankun Small World and sat down, awaiting the Divine Spring Hall’s teleportation.

Sure enough, after a day, an energy fluctuation occurred, and Jing Yan was teleported out of Divine Spring Hall.

Outside the Divine Spring Hall, many people had already gathered around.

Even Director Gong Luo was present.

Gong Luo timed it well, knowing Jing Yan was about to be teleported out of Divine Spring Hall, so he came over to wait. Standing behind Gong Luo were Rui An, Xia Yu, and four other Qingmu Department Stewards.

”Director Gong Luo, Stewards!” Jing Yan clasped his hands in salute.

”Jing Yan!” They all smiled and returned the salute courteously.

”It’s him who defeated Kuo Shen!”

”Indeed, it certainly seems correct; so many saw it with their own eyes, and many First Palace Directors were present.”

”Honestly, it’s hard to see how his strength is so formidable. I heard Kuo Shen was a Five-star Void God! This Jing Yan defeated Kuo Shen with three sword strikes?”

”I heard from Steward Xia Yu that Jing Yan applied for the Second Palace promotion assessment three months ago. If his strength surpasses Kuo Shen’s, the assessment would undoubtedly pose no problem.”

”Exactly, and if Jing Yan successfully advances to the Second Palace, it’s a great boon for our Qingmu Department. I heard some information from Steward Rui An; Jing Yan is very young. If he advances to the Second Palace, our Qingmu Department might even gain another Divine Spring Hall.”

Numerous members of Qingmu Department observed Jing Yan from afar, whispering among themselves. Though they heard from various sources that Jing Yan defeated Kuo Shen, they couldn’t help but harbor doubts.

In simpler terms, it seemed somewhat unbelievable.

”Jing Yan, the promotion assessment time is set for five days later. Do you have any issues? If you think it’s inappropriate, the assessment time can be postponed,” Gong Luo said with a smile to Jing Yan.

”Five days later?” Jing Yan’s eyes flickered, ”No problem, five days later then for the Second Palace promotion assessment.”

”Alright, spend the next five days preparing. With your strength, advancing shouldn’t be an issue, but treat it with caution nonetheless,” Gong Luo slightly advised.

Accidents, although unusual, are not impossible. In past promotion assessments, even Four-star Void Gods have failed, not just once or twice.

Five days later, at the First Palace Assessment Department.

Gong Luo arrived with Jing Yan, along with several Qingmu Department Stewards, eager and excited.
