saint of humanity

As Lu Ye finished speaking, a golden light suddenly appeared before his eyes; it was the Tower Spirit.

A voice came: "Before I leave, I'd like to ask you for a favor."

"What?" Lu Ye was surprised. What could the Tower of Time possibly do that he could help with? Judging from its appearance, it was clearly not heavily corroded.

The tower spirit said, "My mission is complete, so I would like to ask you to help me escape from the River of Time."

Its mission is the Ancestral Abyss Restriction, and the purpose of the Ancestral Abyss Restriction is to seal the Mad Dragons of all generations. Now that many powerful dragons have been taken into Lu Ye's inner world, the Ancestral Abyss Restriction is only nominally ineffective, and there is no need for the Tower of Time to remain in the River of Time.

Lu Ye was surprised: "You mean you're trapped in the River of Time?"

The tower spirit said, "My master placed me here back then. The years have been too long, and the erosion of the power of time has made me almost one with the river of time, so I cannot leave here on my own."

"What should I do?" Lu Ye asked.

The tower spirit said, "I don't know, but you must have a way, and only you can help me get out of this predicament."

Lu Ye was at a loss. If the tower spirit could offer a specific solution, he would not hesitate to share it if he had the ability. But right now, the tower spirit itself couldn't give a clear answer.

How is Lu Ye supposed to act?

"Is this a message left by your master back then?" Lu Ye asked.

The tower spirit remained silent.

Lu Ye already had an idea in his mind. Since the tower spirit was so certain, it must be a hint left by the Dragon and Phoenix Ancestors.

But how exactly can he take the Tower of Time out of the River of Time?

After a moment's thought, Lu Ye suddenly had an idea: "I'll go out first and talk about it then!"

Regardless of whether my idea will work, it's always right to leave here first.

A moment later, Lu Ye suddenly appeared in the long river of time. On the calm river, he looked at the small tower in front of him, reached out and grabbed it easily.

The tower spirit replied, "It's no use. You can leave the River of Time yourself, but I can't leave here at will."

"I know." Lu Ye smiled slightly. "I didn't intend to take you away like this."

As he finished speaking, a thought struck him: he wanted to try to incorporate the Tower of Time into his own inner world.

In his mind, with the endless passage of time, the Tower of Time would almost merge with the river of time. If that were the case, then by taking it into his inner world and isolating it from the outside world, he could take it out.

However, when Lu Yezhen did this, he suddenly realized that he had oversimplified things, because he failed to bring the Tower of Time into his inner world after this attempt.

What I was holding in my hand was just a small tower that didn't look very big, but when I actually tried to put it away, I encountered unimaginable resistance.

It was as if Lu Ye was not taking the small tower in his hand, but a huge and incomparable behemoth, a magnificent thing that his inner world could not contain!
That is the long river of time!

Given that the Tower of Time is almost integrated with the River of Time, his attempt to collect the tower is tantamount to collecting the River of Time itself. How could human beings possibly accomplish such a thing?
Having grasped the crux of the problem, Lu Ye immediately changed his approach.

If that's the case, is there a way to sever the connection between the Tower of Time and the River of Time? It won't take long, just a moment, to allow him to store this treasure within his inner world!

A talent tree might be able to do that!
Because he is currently activating the power of the talent tree to isolate himself from the erosion of the power of time.

Without hesitation, he activated the power of the Talent Tree, slowly enveloping the small tower in his hand.

The tower spirit's surprised voice rang out: "I felt my connection to the River of Time was weakening. You really do have a way!"

No sooner had these words been spoken than the Tower of Time suddenly vanished.

At the same time, a small tower suddenly appeared suspended high in the sky in the inner world.

Lu Ye sent a divine thought to the small tower and said, "It should be ready now."

This treasure has already entered the inner world, so as long as he breaks free from the River of Time, he can take this treasure with him.

but……

"How am I supposed to get out?" Lu Ye asked.

"Borrow my power!" The little tower spun around, seemingly very excited, and the tower spirit's voice became cheerful.

Lu Ye immediately channeled his Dao power into the small tower.

The next moment, the true form standing on the river of time had a sudden inspiration. With a casual gesture, the calm river water immediately surged and quickly evolved into a whirlpool.

Lu Ye flashed into it and felt himself sinking deeper and deeper.

It may have been a long time, or it may have been a moment, but when Lu Ye came to his senses, he was already in the Star Abyss.

He turned his head and looked around, and found that this was not Dragon Pool, nor did he know where he was. It seemed that although the Tower of Time could bring him out of the River of Time, it could not send him back to Dragon Pool because it had severed the connection with the River of Time.

This is not a big problem. He can simply use the Hehe Realm as a transit point to go to Dragon Pool or Phoenix Nest.

Instead of setting off immediately, he continued to maintain the projection of his divine sense, asking the Tower of Time, "Now that you have left the River of Time, where are you going?"

The tower spirit paused for a moment, then said, "I don't know either. Can I stay here for now?"

Since the beginning of the universe, it has been placed in the long river of time. As the endless years flow by, once it is freed, it really doesn't know where to go.

As a supreme treasure, it has no desires or distractions of flesh and blood, and its thinking is quite simple.

Lu Ye obtained the true dragon from its ancestor and achieved a dragon body. It possessed the aura of a master, so for it, no place in this world was as good as staying with Lu Ye.

"Of course you can, stay as long as you want!" Lu Ye was secretly delighted, but showed no sign of it on his face.

The reason Lu Ye asked that question was because he intended to leave the Tower of Time behind. Even if the other party wanted to leave, he would try to reason with them and appeal to their emotions.

Although this treasure has no power of killing or protection, it is invaluable because it only involves the power of time, not to mention that it was left behind by the Dragon and Phoenix Ancestors.

"Could I send some people into the tower to cultivate in the future?" Lu Ye asked again.

If he could, he would like to send the rescued dragons of all generations into the tower right now, because the flow of time inside the Tower of Time is vastly different from that outside. In this way, these powerful dragons can quickly break through their shackles and advance to the level of demigods.

However, since many dragons are currently in seclusion for cultivation, it is not advisable to disturb them rashly, lest they be alarmed and something unexpected happens.

"It is possible, but if you want to use my power to accelerate the passage of time, you will also have to expend your own power," the tower spirit replied.

"What do you mean?" Lu Ye frowned, suddenly feeling uneasy.

The tower spirit said, "I have lost contact with the River of Time, so without external force, it is difficult for me to exert my power. If you want to reproduce my previous abilities, you will naturally have to make some sacrifices."

Lu Ye suddenly realized.

The reason why the Tower of Time had those mysterious powers was entirely because it was located in the River of Time, so it could use the power of the River of Time to make time change within the tower.

But nowadays, it won't work if it's separated from the flow of time.

Just like the Fang Blade, without Lu Ye's Dao power to supply and drive it, it can only unleash its power under certain specific circumstances; otherwise, it's like a skilled cook trying to cook without rice.

“Moreover…” the tower spirit continued, “Now that I have entered your inner world, I do not necessarily need to be inside the tower to unleash my power.”

"Shall I give it a try?" Lu Ye asked.

The tower spirit naturally agreed.

Lu Ye immediately activated his Dao power and poured it into the Tower of Time. In the next instant, a mysterious aura surged from within the Tower of Time. The invisible and formless power radiated throughout the inner world, causing an extremely strange reaction within the inner world. It was as if, in that instant, the flow of time within the inner world accelerated by leaps and bounds. In the outside world, a few dozen breaths had passed, but within the inner world, a whole day had already passed.

Lu Ye raised an eyebrow. If that's the case, then if he wanted the dragons to break through their shackles as soon as possible, he didn't need to send them into the tower. He could simply use the power of the Tower of Time to secretly help them.

This is truly a treasure trove!
Lu Ye originally intended to cultivate himself and rescue the many sealed dragon clan experts when he entered the Tower of Time. Who would have thought that he would also bring out the Tower of Time, a supreme treasure, before leaving?

Now that this treasure is willing to stay in his inner world, it is something he could only dream of.

The only drawback is that activating the power of the treasure is quite costly, especially since the duration of the Tower of Time cannot be too short if you want to unleash its full potential, which is undoubtedly a huge burden on your Dao power.

Unlike Lu Ye's use of other supreme treasures, which can resolve any battle or task in a short time, the Tower of Time is different. Once activated, it requires a long period of maintenance, and even if it only lasts for a day or two, the amount of Dao power consumed is enormous.

Therefore, the power of the Tower of Time should not be used lightly unless absolutely necessary, as Lu Ye feared he might not be able to withstand it.

Lu Ye was very satisfied with the huge gains he had made.

After exchanging a few more casual words with the tower spirit, Lu Ye then used the Dao-Merging Pearl in his inner world to enter the Hehe Realm.

Inside the main hall, Lu Ye frowned deeply.

Compared to the last time I entered, the aura of the Star Abyss within the Hehe Realm has become much denser, as if an invisible hole had been torn in this pure land, and the omnipresent aura of the Star Abyss poured in all at once.

Today, the concentration of the aura of the Star Abyss here is almost comparable to that of the Star Abyss itself.

Under such circumstances, the Hehe Realm was greatly affected. Not to mention anything else, all the powerful figures who had been living in seclusion here had long since disappeared.

Qin Feng should still be in seclusion in Kunli City, so Lu Ye didn't linger and returned directly to the Phoenix Nest.

As soon as he appeared, Tai Chu Wu Tong revealed his figure, his expression solemn: "Lu Ye, you're back!"

"What happened?" Lu Ye was slightly startled. Just by looking at Tai Chu Wu Tong's expression, he knew that nothing good had probably happened during his absence.

"Follow me!" Tai Chu Wu Tong waved his hand, and the surrounding scenery quickly changed.

Lu Ye had originally returned from a tree hollow, but now he suddenly found himself in another tree hollow, immediately enveloped by the stench of blood. (End of Chapter)
