Chapter 150: Sea of Time
Chapter 150: Sea of Time
On the treasure-light-shrouded gigantic ship, Fang Ming's Immortal Body sat cross-legged on the deck, his entire body enveloped in immortal energy.
In front of him, a seed the size of a finger joint floated.
In his inner world, Fang Ming's mind was immersed in comprehending the Dao. Since entering the Upper Realm, his cultivation had been increasing every moment.
Fang Ming felt extremely surprised, especially when he refined that World Stone. The innate great Dao rules contained within it, and the Dao imprints of the powerful experts born from its civilization, made him exceptionally delighted.
For other cultivators, a World Stone was merely top-grade immortal material, but for Fang Ming, it was a supreme immortal pill.
Its effect on him was unexpectedly good.
As he continuously refined it, he could clearly feel his Cave Heaven World expanding, the innate essence of heaven and earth strengthening, and his cultivation increasing!
His World Dao continuously became grander, deeper, and more profound.
Over the dark North Sea, two gigantic ships, one after the other, transformed into two streams of black and white light, flying at a speed that seemed like leaping.
With a flash of light, they had already crossed a distance of tens of thousands of miles.
Several days later, after the Immortal Body controlled the treasure ship to follow the ghost ship in a leap, the Immortal Body, who had been meditating with closed eyes on the gigantic ship, suddenly opened his eyes with a 'swish'. Astonishing immortal light flowed within his eyes as he stared intently ahead.
"This place... the power of Time is so strong, so terrifying!" He frowned tightly, his expression solemn, and muttered to himself, "What place is this? This is no longer the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!"
Here, the sea was blue and the sky clear, the seawater formed by innate essence was crystal clear, wisps of essence energy rose up, and in the distance, immortal mist was hazy, faintly revealing endless stretches of immortal mountains.
Among those endless immortal mountains, a golden sun was slowly setting. One could faintly see that it was a Golden Crow burning with solar immortal fire.
On the silent sea surface, a towering bronze gate that reached the sky stood.
Inside the gate was hazy, filled with endless immortal light, making it impossible to see anything.
Observing this place, Fang Ming's Immortal Body sent out his divine sense, which spread out like a tide, instantly covering hundreds of millions of light-years, reaching its limit.
Suddenly, his expression sank.
Because he couldn't sense the limit of this world.
"Is this the past? Or the future? Or is it outside of Time?" Fang Ming's Ci Shen narrowed his eyes, constantly deducing, trying to find the location of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
In front of him, Fang Ming also sensed that something was wrong the moment he entered this place.
Because the innate essence of heaven and earth had changed. The innate great Dao essence here was different from that of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. The one here was more complete, but the one in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was stronger.
In other words, this was a Great Chiliocosm Universe, a complete Great Chiliocosm Universe.
Therefore, it was only natural that the Immortal Body's divine sense couldn't detect the boundary.
"Can you still sense the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?" Fang Ming asked.
His Immortal Body shook his head and said, "I can't sense the existence of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths at all, as if it has disappeared, not in the past, nor in the future."
"It seems the ghost ship picked up the wrong person!"
With his thoughts flowing, Fang Ming took out the original gate and handed it to his Immortal Body, saying, "Take this, just in case."
Offering the original gate above his head, the Immortal Body looked at the gate standing on the sea surface and asked, "Shall we go in and explore?"
"Not in a hurry yet." Fang Ming was not anxious. He said, "Have you detected the existence of any treasures?"
Since they were already here, they might as well see if there were any treasures first. Now was the time when he needed a large number of rare and precious treasures to strengthen himself.
"No, at least within the range covered by my divine sense, there are no rare treasures worth seeing." Fang Ming's Ci Shen shook his head.
Hearing his Ci Shen's answer, Fang Ming was not disappointed. This was within his expectations. Perhaps this world was temporarily created.
Because he hadn't found a single living creature.
After pondering for a moment, Fang Ming said, "Let's first try to find a way to leave. If we really can't, then we'll enter that gate."
Ci Shen thought for a moment and asked, "Including using the original gate?"
"You can try to see if it can be opened." Fang Ming pondered for a moment and said, "But don't go in."
"Okay." After responding, Ci Shen began his attempts.
Although he became an immortal through Immortal Medicine, he possessed the cultivation of a True Immortal after all. Fang Ming had already taught him various great techniques.
After a brief attempt and failing to find a path to leave, Fang Ming's Immortal Body tried to use great divine abilities to bombard this world, planning to borrow a path from the chaos to return.
He unleashed various great divine abilities, truly causing the collapse of heaven and earth, with a momentum that seemed to return heaven and earth to chaos.
However, a strange scene appeared.
Initially, Fang Ming's Ci Shen's great divine abilities erupted, and it seemed that large swathes of heaven and earth had been destroyed, with chaos surging endlessly.
Suddenly, Time seemed to rewind, and instantly everything flowed back, and everything familiar was restored.
Then, when Ci Shen's divine abilities were unleashed again, they mysteriously lost their proper power, being neutralized by a strange force that removed their Immortal Dao power.
Seeing this scene, Fang Ming understood in his heart and instantly comprehended everything.
As expected, this world must have been created by Hen Ren.
However, he didn't have the intention to stop Ci Shen.
There were many things he hadn't told Ci Shen. Ci Shen only thought that Fang Ming was just a special cultivator in this world.
Soon, after trying numerous divine abilities, Fang Ming's Immortal Body still couldn't do anything to this world and couldn't find a way to leave at all.
Left with no choice, his Immortal Dao magic power boiled and flowed into the original gate.
In an instant, the original Dao patterns, innate deities, and fierce beasts on the original gate all glowed.
Immortal light and chaotic energy spewed out, and the tightly closed doors of the original gate gradually became transparent.
Vaguely, it seemed as if a boundless, endless ocean appeared.
That ocean was so terrifying that just looking at it gave off a suffocating aura. Countless great worlds were colliding, carrying an unspeakable tragic aura.
Subsequently, the scene inside the gate changed, and faint light appeared.
One could vaguely see that opposite the endless ocean, there was a boundless, dark continent. That dark continent gave a sense of unspeakable trepidation, as if some terrifying and boundless existence was sleeping there.
Just looking at it gave a feeling of the primordial spirit freezing, with a chill rising from the bottom of one's heart.
Seeing this scene, Fang Ming's heart trembled. This original gate was even more powerful and strange than he had imagined.
However, before he could say anything, just as the doors of the original gate were about to become completely transparent and disappear, along with the world behind the door, the doors abruptly solidified again, as if nothing had happened.
Seeing such a scene, Fang Ming in his inner world was stunned.
"It wasn't me. I didn't have time to interrupt." Fang Ming's Immortal Body shook his head.
Looking at the grey-black original gate, many doubts surfaced in Fang Ming's heart. He thought to himself, "Did the deity of this gate awaken? Or did Hen Ren make a move?"
After observing the sky-reaching gate standing on the sea for a while, Fang Ming said, "Let's go, we'll go in and take a look."
Fang Ming's true body dissipated, and the light of the Immortal Dao spread over, enveloping him.
Subsequently, his Immortal Body took him and controlled the treasure ship, entering the bronze light gate without any obstruction.
The scene inside the gate was completely different from what Fang Ming had imagined. This was not some immortal sacred land, but a boundless, crystal-clear ocean.
The sky above was hazy, presenting a scene similar to this ocean, with a similar aura.
The vastness of this ocean completely exceeded his imagination. Even the Boundary Sea he glimpsed earlier didn't give him such a sense of vastness.
This was an intuitive feeling, vast and majestic. Fang Ming's Immortal Body's face also showed surprise, and he couldn't help but murmur to himself, "This... could this be the Time Sea!"
Hearing his Ci Shen's words, Fang Ming's heart was shaken. He couldn't sense anything, feeling completely nothing.
However, he knew the term Time Sea. The relevant information was taught to his Ci Shen by him, so how could he not know it?
The Time Sea is different from the River of Time. This is an existence higher than the River of Time, from which the River of Time flows out.
