The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1133: Chapter 1133: Racing Against Time

Jing Yan comprehended the laws of the fourth Enlightenment Fruit, with each law consuming about a month.

By the time he picked the fourth Enlightenment Fruit into his hand, he had spent nearly two full years in Luojiu Space. His Martial Arts Realm also successfully advanced to the level of a Five-star True God.

Upon stepping onto the fourth branch of the Enlightenment Tree, Jing Yan immediately swallowed the second Enlightenment Fruit. His Divine Soul was once again strengthened, and the fatigue of his soul was swept away. This made Jing Yan feel a surge of boldness and increased confidence in advancing to the High-level True God in Luojiu Space.

In the third year, more and more martial artists were being transported out of Luojiu Space. By the end of the third year, nearly half of the 150 martial artists who entered this time had been forcibly sent out. Among those transported out, four people successfully entered the Seven-star True God Realm.

”Has Jing Yan not come out yet?”

”No, Zhen Qian from the Hundred Refinement Department was the first to be transported out of Luojiu Space, and I was there at the time.”

”It seems... Jing Yan will gain again a great harvest from his trip to Luojiu Space!”

”Hmm, he should be a Four-star True God by now!”

”Hmph, he’ll definitely be transported out in at most another year.” Director Yin Tianhe of the Sky Wolf Department cursed Jing Yan without any decorum.

In the fourth year, Jing Yan’s realm remained at the Five-star True God Realm.

By the middle of the fifth year, Jing Yan successfully reached the Six-star True God Realm. Shortly after entering the Six-star True God Realm, Jing Yan picked the fifth Enlightenment Fruit.

At this time, Jing Yan only had this one Enlightenment Fruit left on him. The previously obtained Enlightenment Fruits had all been used up.

After arriving at the fifth branch, Jing Yan looked at the sixth Enlightenment Fruit not far above.

”Comprehending the laws is becoming more difficult!”

”Even if I swallow the fifth Enlightenment Fruit, I only have a year and four months left. It should be impossible to pick the sixth Enlightenment Fruit.” Jing Yan thought helplessly in his heart.

”However, during this year and more, I must try my best to comprehend the laws of the Enlightenment Fruit and also strive for the High-level True God Realm.” Jing Yan’s eyes focused.

At this point, he did not hurry to begin comprehending the laws of the sixth Enlightenment Fruit but started practicing Alchemy instead.

Taking twenty drops of Daozhen Stone Milk, he separated two drops, preparing to refine six batches of the Daozhen Pill.

To advance to the High-level True God, the assistance of Daozhen Pill would give Jing Yan greater assurance. Without the Daozhen Pill, the opportunity to advance to the High-level True God in Luojiu Space might not even be ten percent.

After refining six Daozhen Pills, Jing Yan calmed his mind and began to comprehend the laws of the sixth Enlightenment Fruit.

The first law took Jing Yan a full six months to comprehend successfully. At this point, there was just over half a year left before he would be forcibly teleported out of the secret realm. Calculating it, Jing Yan seemed to be able to comprehend one more law of the sixth Enlightenment Fruit.

Without much thought, being able to comprehend one more would have immense benefits.

Meanwhile, in the Ninth Palace, an eerie atmosphere had already spread among the major figures.

Of the 150 people who entered Luojiu Space, up to this point, 149 had been transported out. About one-third of these transported martial artists had advanced from the Six-star True God Realm to the Seven-star True God Realm.

This achievement is comparable to the number of martial artists who have broken through in previous activations of Luojiu Space, so it doesn’t come as a surprise or shock.

The issue is there’s still one Jing Yan remaining inside Luojiu Space.

”Why hasn’t Jing Yan come out yet?”

This question has been casually asked by countless people, but no one has an answer.

When Jing Yan entered Luojiu Space, he was merely a martial artist at the Three-star True God Realm. Under normal circumstances, Jing Yan should have been the first to be transported out. His lower realm should have been a disadvantage in the comprehension of laws.

But as time passed, more and more people felt unable to understand this.

Jing Yan, at Three-star True God, relying on the Gravity Domain, could contend with martial artists at the Six-star True God Realm, yet the Gravity Domain wouldn’t help him better comprehend the laws of the Enlightenment Fruit. How is Jing Yan staying so long in Luojiu Space?

Near the entrance of Luojiu Space, more and more high-level figures of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace gathered. Naturally, these people were waiting for the last of the 150 martial artists who entered Luojiu Space to come out, which was Jing Yan.

”It’s been over five years. Jing Yan has been cultivating in Luojiu Space for more than five years. When he comes out, his realm will definitely not be low.”

”Indeed! Now it can be confirmed that Jing Yan is already an Intermediate True God. It’s just uncertain whether he’s a Four-star or Five-star True God.”

”He could also be a Six-star True God!”

”Six-star True God? That’s unlikely! Even a cultivation sacred land like Luojiu Space can’t possibly enable him to advance from Three-star to Six-star True God in such a short period.”

”Hehe, we’ll know soon enough when Jing Yan comes out.”

The major figures discussed mostly about Jing Yan’s realm.

Jing Yan stepping into the Intermediate True God Realm was not in doubt; some believed he was a Four-star True God, others thought he was a Five-star True God, and a very few even believed Jing Yan could have reached the Six-star True God Realm.

At this time in the secret realm, Jing Yan indeed was at the Six-star True God Realm.

...

Countdown: five months... four months... three months... two months...

The time left for Jing Yan grew shorter.

When only two months were left, Jing Yan finally comprehended the second law of the sixth Enlightenment Fruit.

”There’s still two months left!” Jing Yan looked at the Enlightenment Fruit above.

”Comprehending the third law is already impossible; there’s simply not enough time, far too much is lacking.” Jing Yan pondered inwardly.

”Let’s attempt a breakthrough!”

”Two months later, I will be transported out. Let’s make a final push and see if I can raise my realm to the Seven-star True God Realm within these two months.” Jing Yan, although somewhat unsatisfied, didn’t feel disappointed.

From this trip into the secret realm, he had already gained significantly. In just a few short years, he rose from the Three-star True God to the Six-star True God Realm, with hope for breaking through to the Seven-star True God. What more could Jing Yan possibly be discontent with?

With a thought.

Swish!

Jing Yan disappeared from the branches of the Enlightenment Tree. The next moment, he appeared within the Qiankun Small World.

”Hehe, the Qiankun Small World is truly extraordinary. Even in Luojiu Space, I can still enter the Qiankun Small World.” Jing Yan’s eyes flickered.

The Moro Time Tower operated, with Jing Yan directly using expensive level-five Divine Crystals to provide the Moro Time Tower with energy. The change in the flow of time was approximately fifteen times.

Inside the Qiankun Small World, Jing Yan couldn’t comprehend the laws of the Enlightenment Fruit anymore.
