Ordinary observers in fast time travel
Chapter 1288 Debt
"Lord Shi Jia, this is your bill, and this is the contract. Please take a look!" Shi Yun of the Ancient Time Tower handed two sheets of paper to Shi Jia with a smile.
Of course, this paper is no ordinary paper. Judging from the divine light shimmering on it and the power of the rules emanating from it, one can foresee that once you sign your name, there will be no chance to regret it.
Looking at the amount on the bill, Shi Jia was almost overwhelmed by regret: tens, hundreds, thousands... nine billion contribution points!
With a total of 9.9 billion contribution points, how many worlds and universes would she have to save to repay that debt? Does she really have a chance to repay it in her lifetime?
Her face was pale, and she forced a smile, her voice trembling with tears, "Can I not take it anymore?"
Shi Yun's smile remained unchanged. "This... I'm afraid that won't work." He pointed to the Heart of Time in her hand. "It has already recognized you as its master."
"Moreover, the Heart of Time is a supreme treasure of the laws, and it is not easily revealed. Since you have found it in the Chaotic Space, it proves that you are destined to meet. If you fail to seize this opportunity, you will be abandoned by the great will of the universe."
Shi Jia didn't hear what Shi Yun said after that. Her face was deathly pale, and she kept hearing two words: "Recognize the master!"
Yes, the Ancestor of the Spring Clan just said that to refine the Heart of Time into a weapon, it can only be sculpted using the power of time and the power of the soul. Moreover, the Ancestor said that it can be sculpted even better after it has recognized a master. So she did as instructed!
Was the Ancestor doing this on purpose? Did he deliberately make her complete the recognition of her master within the Ancient Tower of Time? Did he deliberately leave her no chance to back out?
"Lord Shi Jia, please!" Shi Yun handed over the contract again. "Don't worry, although the amount of contribution points you owe is huge, there is no time limit for repayment in the contract."
"You know, time has no meaning for the Time Clan. You will be able to repay it in your lifetime," Shi Yun comforted him.
Shi Jia forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Yes. Sign here, right?"
"Yes."
Shi Jia gathered her strength and wrote her name on the pen. The moment she finished writing, Shi Jia felt as if something terrifying was watching her soul, chains were binding her body, and something was being peeled away from her.
"Alright. Is there anything else you'd like to buy?" Shi Yun looked at the signature on the contract and smiled warmly.
"Need not."
Holding the Heart of Time, Shi Jia felt heavy-hearted and had no interest in anything. She had no desire to visit the antique shops.
"Okay, then welcome to visit us again next time."
"kindness."
Be careful when you go out.
Shi Jia paused, her nerves unable to reflexively retreat, and immediately turned around, "Even going outside will send me to the Chaotic Space?"
Shi Yun shook his head.
Shi Jia frowned. "Then what do you mean by 'be careful when you go out'?"
Shi Yun glanced at the door and then pointed to the Heart of Time in her hand.
Shi Jia looked down and exclaimed, "Oh! Thanks for reminding me." With a thought, she stored the Heart of Time into her mental sea. As soon as the Heart of Time entered the mental sea, it stirred up boundless waves. The little system, which was swimming aimlessly in the mental sea, was tossed about by the waves and, with a snap, was thrown away to who-knows-where.
"Ah—Host, save me!"
"Ah!" A sharp pain shot through her, and before Shi Jia could react, she fainted. The next instant, a powerful surge of time energy erupted from her body, slowly spreading outwards from her center.
All the items swept away by the power of time changed color, as if they had been erased by an eraser. "Your Excellency?" Shi Yun was startled and rushed to Shi Jia's side. At this moment, a figure appeared. "Ancestor of the Lichun Clan! Her Excellency Shi Jia, she..."
"It's alright, I'll take her to the Chaotic Time Space." Li Chun picked up Shi Jia, took a step forward, and the two disappeared from the spot.
Shi Yun breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the floor, clearly weathered by time, and was secretly shocked. This fellow clansman's talent was truly terrifying.
He raised an eyebrow, recalling how the other party had taken the Heart of Time into their mental sea without any preparation. "But it seems a bit reckless, and they don't seem to have much common sense."
"That's right, it seems like they've only just come of age. They haven't been crowned yet!"
Shi Yun's lips curled up, and he gathered the power of time in his hand, which he then poured into the discolored floor. As the power of time was injected, the color of the floor gradually changed, eventually returning to its original state.
Items eroded by the power of time can be repaired using the power of time; of course, you can also simply replace the floorboards.
On the other side, in the chaotic space, Shi Jia was completely enveloped in golden light, forming a cocoon of light.
"She's really a handful." Li Chun shook his head, and with a wave of his hand, he used the power of time to divide the space, ensuring that Shi Jia would not be affected by anything else, and of course, the treasures in the space would not be affected either.
"Let her hurry back to her clan to complete the coronation ceremony." Li Chun said helplessly. He had already left, but he noticed the changes in the Heart of Time and had no choice but to come back.
"I hope no one else has discovered me." Li Chun's eyes were vacant, but she was actually looking at the ancient building through the spatial wall.
At this moment, Shi Yun restored the floor to its original state and prepared to retrieve the Time Crystal to replenish his energy. He had barely taken a step when he sensed a powerful aura emanating from the doorway.
"Your Excellency Qianshan, welcome." Shi Yun immediately smiled and turned to greet him. The man was about 2.3 meters tall, with a muscular body, and stood there like a small mountain.
"What do you need?" Shi Yun asked, but his gaze fell on a beautiful woman with an ethereal appearance behind Qian Shan. "Your Excellency Lingcui, welcome."
Ling Cui nodded, "Did your Time Tower produce some treasure? How many Source Crystals? I want it!"
Shi Yun was somewhat taken aback by her directness.
"Lingcui, don't go too far. I arrived first, so I should buy first." Qianshan waved his fist in dissatisfaction. "Shiyun, hurry up and take out the treasure."
Lingcui took a step to the side in disgust, but her eyes never left Shi Yun's face.
As the manager of the Ancient Tower of Time, Shi Yun had seen all sorts of people and was naturally not intimidated by two star system level individuals. He smiled as if he knew nothing and said, "What treasures do you two wish to purchase? The Ancient Tower is filled with countless treasures. As long as you can afford Origin Crystals and Contribution Points, you can purchase them."
"Don't pretend you don't know anything." Qianshan frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "A powerful energy appeared here just now, it must be a treasure that has been born. Hurry up and take it out."
"Shi Yun, just name your price, how many Origin Crystals?" Ling Cui took another step forward, her gaze falling on the spot where Shi Jia had just waded, where a trace of Time Power still lingered.
Shi Yun's face turned cold. "You two haven't specified what the treasure is, so how am I supposed to take it? Are you suggesting I display all the treasures in the ancient building?"
"Please make yourselves at home, I won't keep you company any longer." Shi Yun said, then turned and continued walking towards the counter.
"You!" Qian Shan was about to explode in anger when he was suddenly locked in place by a powerful pressure and dared not move. Ling Cui beside him was the same.
In the chaotic space, Li Chun nodded in satisfaction. "Very good, those old guys didn't discover me." (End of Chapter)
