Chapter 1582 Time-Space Altar
"What a spectacular collision!" Ao Ming's black dragon body involuntarily leaned forward. "Among those of the same level, only the two of them can unleash a divine power of this scale!"

The Blood Fiend Emperor's blood-sea phantom rippled violently: "Wang Xian's time slowdown was crucial, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to withstand the onslaught of the ferocious beast tide. However, something seems off about this desolate battlefield; it appears that the people fighting here are expending a great deal of energy."

The ferocious beast tide is relentless; if this continues, Wang Xian will eventually be exhausted.

As expected, just as the Blood Fiend Emperor said, Wang Xian's time slowdown could only last for a moment. Once it failed, new ferocious beast phantoms would reappear.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his vital energy was being depleted too quickly.

The airflow of the chaotic entity became thinner, the faint light of the stellar entity dimmed, and the teleportation intervals of the spacetime entity became longer and longer.

Wang Xian glanced at Shou Yuan and realized that his great depletion must be due to the desolate battlefield.

However, upon closer reflection, it makes sense.

Both he and Shouyuan possessed an extraordinary level of endurance. In normal terrain, they could fight indefinitely without risking their lives.

"Can't hold on any longer, can you?"

Shouyuan's voice carried a hint of smugness as she swung the broken whip in her hand again, sending a thick whip shadow lashing towards Wang Xian's back.

This whip was still held back, but it carried enough power to make Wang Xian suffer.

Wang Xian felt the strong wind behind him, turned around abruptly, and condensed the last Chaos Star Shield with both hands to block the whip shadow.

"Oh!"

The moment the shield shattered, the whip lashed his shoulder, leaving a faint red mark.

The injuries were more severe than before, but they still did not damage the bones or tendons.

"Stop!" Wang Xian said, panting heavily, waving his hand. "I give up. If you keep fighting, I'm really going to be beaten to a pulp."

When Shouyuan saw Wang Xian admit defeat, most of the anger in his eyes finally dissipated.

She put away the broken whip, and the tide of savage beasts dissipated, while the savage fog on the battlefield gradually calmed down.

"You know what's going on!"

Her voice still carried a hint of coldness, but the previous hostility was gone. "I'll let you off this time. If you can't find Huang'er, I'll settle the score with you later!"

Wang Xian rubbed his sore shoulders and said with a wry smile, "Don't worry, I will not be careless about finding Huang'er."

Shouyuan raised her hand and waved it at the savage war drum in the air. The war drum made a soft sound, and its huge body began to shrink. The light curtain of the battlefield also gradually dissipated and turned back into countless runes, merging into the war drum.

The two leaped out of the battlefield and returned to the chaotic void.

The Heavenly Emperors of the Chaos Sea gathered around, and Ao Ming spoke first: "Brilliant! Truly brilliant! This is the first time I've ever seen such a level of skill in a duel between equals!"

The Blood Fiend Emperor laughed and said, "Wang Xian's physique fusion and mobility are unparalleled, and the Hunting Kite Ruler's savage divine power is domineering and steady. If we were to truly determine a winner, I really don't know how long the fight would last!"

Wang Xian exchanged pleasantries with the Heavenly Emperors of the Chaos Sea, who, understanding Wang Xian's words as a request to see them off, respectfully took their leave.

"Everyone, I understand what you mean. Once I find Huang'er, I will help you achieve what you want."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Wang."

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

Having received the answer they wanted, the Heavenly Emperors of the Chaos Sea thanked Wang Xian and then left.

Wang Xian looked at Shou Yuan, remained silent for a few moments, and then waved his hand to open the passage to the inner world.

"Inner world?"

Hunting Kite looked at the scene at the other end of the passage with some surprise.

"Okay." Wang Xian nodded: "Come with me first. I need to take care of some things. Afterwards, I will try to contact my future self and ask about Huang'er."

"Can you connect with your future self?"

Shouyuan was taken aback, then became extremely excited.

Regardless of whether it was the future Wang Xian who took Huang'er away, if Wang Xian could contact the future Wang Xian, then he should be able to know about Huang'er's situation.

"Some preparations need to be made."

As Wang Xian walked toward the inner world, he responded to Shou Yuan.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

Hunting Kite quickly followed.

"Being not."

Wang Xian shook her head.

For Wang Xian, contacting his future self was not a difficult task. He only needed to build a spacetime altar and use the essence of the spacetime body to draw upon the river of time, which would allow him to traverse endless spacetime and connect with his future self.

However, stirring up the River of Time will inevitably alarm the strongest beings within it, and with Wang Xian's current strength, he is absolutely no match for those strongest beings.

Therefore, Wang Xian needed a powerful figure capable of suppressing the strongest beings in the long river of time, and the first person Wang Xian thought of was Yao Yao, followed by Shou Yuan.

Yao Yao's strength will surely increase greatly after refining the celestial phantom. Even if she doesn't recover to her peak, she should still be able to suppress those supreme beings in the river of time.

As for Shouyuan... with the strength she has shown, even if she cannot suppress the strongest beings in the River of Time, she should be able to withstand them without any problem.

The only problem is whether my future self will be willing to contact him. If not, then everything he does will be useless!
Wang Xian can only pray now that her future self will be willing to contact him.

Upon entering the inner world, Shouyuan was astonished by Wang Xian's inner world.

"This...this is the world you created?"

Shouyuan's voice was filled with disbelief. She could sense that the origin of this inner world was so rich that it was even purer than the primordial core of the ancient world, and it was orderly, without the chaos and violence of the primordial world.

"You can explore my inner world for a bit; I'm going to set up the Time-Space Altar." "Okay!"

Although she verbally agreed, Shouyuan did not leave but stayed by Wang Xian's side.

Wang Xian didn't care, found a desolate planet, and started to act.

The power of stars and the power of chaos in his inner world converged on him at the same time, and a faint golden and black light appeared on his body. Ripples of spacetime also began to flow at his fingertips.

At the same time, the void shattered, and a large amount of immortal gold, immortal crystals, and immortal materials appeared and fell in front of Wang Xian.

Wang Xian's movements were precise and swift as he refined various immortal metals and materials, then integrated them into immortal crystals, and finally inscribed time runes, space runes, and even time-space runes on them.

Shouyuan watched intently from the side. She noticed that when Wang Xian inscribed the runes, he not only used the origin of the stellar body, but also incorporated the fluctuations of the spacetime body.

Each rune's inscription contains subtle ripples in spacetime, which can better guide subsequent spacetime power.

She couldn't help but ask, "Did you incorporate spacetime fluctuations when you inscribed the runes? That's a novel method; it can reduce the resistance when you later activate the river of time."

“That’s right.” Wang Xian nodded. “The power of spacetime is complementary. Integrating into spacetime fluctuations in advance will allow the subsequent spacetime runes to fit better.”

As he spoke, Wang Xian had already cast the various immortal metals he had inscribed into pillars that emitted strong spatial and temporal fluctuations.

Time passed quickly, and a month went by in the blink of an eye. Wang Xian finally completed the inscription of the last time rune, and the Time-Space Altar was officially completed.

Upon completion, a golden and silver interwoven light membrane appeared on the surface of spacetime, radiating intense spacetime fluctuations. The chaotic energy and stellar power around the altar became even more active, and the light of the twelve pillars surged. The light bands at the top of the pillars transformed into a huge "spacetime halo," slowly rotating above the altar.

Now, only the last spacetime rune remains to be inscribed, and it is the most crucial rune.

Wang Xian took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged, and the origins of his Chaos Body, Star Body, and Spacetime Body surged out simultaneously, merging into the central groove of the Spacetime Altar.

The primordial liquid instantly transformed into a seven-colored stream, flowing along the groove to the surface of the spacetime altar, where it began to condense the core runes.

The rune is shaped like a rotating "Tai Chi diagram," with one half being golden time patterns and the other half being silver space patterns, interspersed with chaotic black and starlight gold.

During the condensation process, the spacetime halo above the altar began to contract violently, and countless spacetime fragments surged out from the halo and merged into the core rune.

Veins bulged on Wang Xian's forehead as his spiritual power became highly concentrated. He could feel that the core runes were forming a faint connection with his future self, and he also sensed a faint pressure emanating from the depths of the River of Time. Clearly, the strongest being in the River of Time had noticed the spacetime fluctuations here.

"Hang in there! I'll help stabilize your fluctuations!"

Sensing the pressure of the River of Time, Shouyuan immediately burned a small amount of her primordial essence. The light of the Primordial Guardian Array surged, forcibly suppressing the temporal fluctuations of the altar within a certain range. At the same time, the Nine-Headed Lion released its full aura, merging with her primordial power to form a barrier that resisted the pressure of the River of Time.

With the help of Shouyuan, Wang Xian finally completed the condensation of the core rune.

The moment the last line was completed, the Spacetime Altar erupted with a beam of light that pierced through the inner world and shot straight into the star layer in the sky. The stars in the star layer lit up at the same time, pouring pure stellar power into the altar.

The chaotic power in the void also surged out wildly, flowing along the twelve pillars and converging into the center of the altar.

The entire inner world's spacetime began to fluctuate slightly, and the spacetime halo above the altar transformed into a massive "spacetime gate."

Inside the gate, a rushing golden river can be vaguely seen—a phantom of the river of time.

The Time-Space Altar has finally been completed.

The entire altar is shaped like a nine-palace eight-trigram formation, with a dark golden chaotic gold base inlaid with tens of thousands of chaotic immortal crystals, exuding a heavy chaotic aura.

The middle layer consists of twelve gold and silver spacetime pillars, corresponding to the twelve earthly branches. The star crystals at the top of the pillars echo the stars in the sky, flowing with pure stellar power.

At the core of the top altar, three runes—time, space, and spacetime interaction—are inscribed on the surface, radiating strong spacetime fluctuations.

Above the altar floated a portal of time and space interwoven with gold and silver, within which the phantom of the river of time could be vaguely seen, surrounded by a seven-colored chaotic and stellar current, creating an overall magnificent and mysterious atmosphere.

Wang Xian slowly opened his eyes, withdrew his hands, and showed a trace of fatigue on his face, but could not hide his excitement: "It's done! As long as I make some more preparations, I can activate the river of time and connect with my future self."

Shouyuan stepped forward, looking at the Time-Space Gold in the center of the altar, her eyes filled with anticipation: "When can we begin? Connecting with your future self, will you truly know Huang'er's whereabouts?"

Wang Xian sat on the edge of the altar, circulating his inner energy to recover his strength. He explained, "We need to move the altar to the outside world, and we also need to wait for Yao Yao to finish refining the Celestial Realm phantom. She is the strongest and can help us withstand the pressure from the supreme beings of the River of Time. When I was condensing the core runes just now, I already felt the pressure from the depths of the River of Time. At least ten supreme beings sensed the fluctuations here. If Yao Yao hadn't been there, we might have been targeted by the supreme beings of the River of Time before we even had a chance to contact our future selves."

He paused, then looked into the depths of his inner world.

A golden pillar of light could be faintly seen there, which was the place where Yao Yao was refining the illusory image of the Heavenly Realm. The pillar of light occasionally emitted fluctuations from the collision between the laws of the Heavenly Realm and Yao Yao's origin, indicating that the refining process had reached a critical stage.

"Yao Yao's refining process should take about half a month. During this time, we can stabilize the spacetime fluctuations of the altar and prepare some trump cards to deal with the attacks from those supreme experts."

Shouyuan nodded, her worries lessening slightly.

She walked to the center of the altar, reached out and touched the runes, feeling the pure power of space and time contained within them, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Your control over space and time is truly astonishing!"

The Law of Time is a forbidden law. Any powerful cultivator who practices the Law of Time will be watched by the 'Lord of Forbidden Things', which is why no cultivators practice the Law of Time.

After all, being constantly watched by a 'forbidden lord' is simply unbearable, even for a true Heavenly Emperor.

She was genuinely curious about how Wang Xian managed to withstand the gaze of the 'Forbidden Lord'.

However, despite her curiosity, she didn't ask any further questions. After all, it was Wang Xian's secret, and she had no reason to ask. Her relationship with Wang Xian was just a ritual.

The two sat on the edge of the altar, discussing Huang'er's possible situation while waiting for Yao Yao to complete the refining process.

The stars in the inner world slowly rotated, the chaotic energy flowed in an orderly manner, the light of the twelve pillars flickered from time to time, and the spacetime gate above the altar also steadily emitted fluctuations.

Half a month later, the golden pillar of light deep within the inner world suddenly surged, and a majestic and pure aura swept across the entire inner world. The stars in the sky lit up, and the spiritual plants on the earth bloomed with their most vibrant flowers.

Yao Yao's voice came from the pillar of light, carrying the power she gained after her breakthrough: "Finally, the refining is complete!"

Wang Xian and Shou Yuan stood up at the same time, their eyes full of anticipation.

Wang Xian took a deep breath and looked at the Time-Space Altar: "Everything is ready. It's time to move the Time-Space Altar to the outside world, activate the River of Time, and connect with my future self!"

Shouyuan gripped the broken whip tightly, a resolute glint in her eyes: "No matter the outcome, we must find Huang'er!"

Yao Yao's figure flew out from the pillar of light and landed beside the altar. Her aura was several times stronger than before, and her body was surrounded by the light of the fusion of the laws of the heavens and her own origin.

Wang Xian had informed Yao Yao about the Time-Space Altar half a month ago, and Yao Yao said there was absolutely no problem.
