Refining the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 1764

Chapter 1485: Taotie Projection

Should he cultivate here…

Nonsense, of course he should!

Although what Qin Yu really wanted to do was to cut off the head of the person that was going to come knocking.

Qin Yu had no guarantee of whether this head was really going to come. After all, no matter how much effort one put in, things may not go as one wished.

In the end, he had to be prepared!

If he could not kill him, then using the Boiling Mountain Fantasy to light up his cultivation path would be a huge gain as well.

At this moment, there was a strange feeling erupting from within Qin Yu.

It was Stone Pagoda!

Buzz –

The air in front of him vibrated and Stone Pagoda’s illusion slowly formed. His body was vibrating and he was a lot weaker than in the past.

It was as if within the Boiling Mountain Fantasy, there was an invisible shield preventing external energy from entering.

Qin Yu frowned, “What are you doing?”

If Stone Pagoda forced his way in, he must have found something out. Qin Yu still valued this guy who knew almost everything because he ate too much.

“I found something that you can try. Although I am not certain yet, if it succeeds…” Stone Pagoda did not complete his sentence but the delight in his voice was apparent.

Talking in a secretive manner but not clearly stating the meaning was an extremely annoying thing.

Especially at a time like this!

Qin Yu glared at him but he could not be bothered to waste energy arguing with Stone Pagoda. He was going to let Stone Pagoda do whatever he wanted.

He crossed his legs and sat down, fully activating his divine sense. It was like a torrent sweeping over the entire place.

Amidst the huge shift, bright stars ‘emerged’ and ‘communicated’ with Qin Yu’s divine sense.

But soon, Qin Yu was annoyed to find out that because he was on the True God Path, his Great Dao was created by Furnace…so the success rate of this kind of ‘communication’ was very low.

More importantly, even if he managed to gain something, he had only just begun to understand his Great Dao and did not have a full comprehension. There was no way to illuminate the road ahead using this method.

To put it simply – Qin Yu’s realm did not qualify to enter the Boiling Mountain Fantasy. His power did not match this place and severely restricted the cultivation effects.

This was a slightly embarrassing situation.

Sighing, Qin Yu was about to open his eyes and stop his divine sense when his expression suddenly changed.

His divine sense swept through like a torrent and in a particular twisted space, it locked onto a certain ‘star’. Compared to the ones around it, it was slightly dimmer and smaller. It was obvious that its original owner was not that powerful.

Or perhaps when its owner died, the Great Dao was brutally destroyed and only a small part of it remained unharmed.

The truth was…the latter!

Because at this moment, Qin Yu sensed the scent of time through this dim and small ‘star’.

It was…the Time Rule!

Space Dao was the symbol of True Saints heading to the shore. Whereas Time Rules were the key to opening the gate to the Ruler realm.

Qin Yu was also at the beginning stage when it came to Time Rules – he had just begun to take control and then did not progress beyond that.

It was not that he did not wish to improve, but he could not find a way to improve his cultivation.

But this star seemed to be giving Qin Yu a chance. Although he could not use the Boiling Mountain Fantasy to illuminate his Great Dao route, if he could utilize this star with the Time Rule, he might be able to gain something.

He was going to do it!

Boom –

Qin Yu’s divine sense burst out and surged in all four directions before congregating in one. It all concentrated on that dim star.

The dim and small star suddenly lit up. It started to absorb and expand…removing the ‘outer coat’ that was covering it!

It worked!

Qin Yu smiled.

……

Just when the ‘star’ was activated and the Time Rules started to flow, a straight long line formed from far away and extended in Qin Yu’s direction.

Ning Xiao was rushing!

He could sense the ‘stars’ appearing in the air around him.

There were a few among them that suited him well.

Ning Xiao believed that if he stopped and used his divine sense, he would definitely be able to gain something.

For a cultivator, being able to ignore this kind of temptation was extremely rare.

But Ning Xiao did it!

Firstly, it was because he had an immensely strong will so he was able to remain calm.

Secondly, it was because…Yun Qing’s attraction was much stronger!

He was very clear about his goal. He had to kill the Darkness Ruler. Li Zhouyi could hardly protect himself and Yun Qing would fall into his hands. After he swallowed Yun Qing, everything would be worth it!

And now, he was rushing to kill the Darkness Ruler.

Whether he would succeed…Ning Xiao was certain that the Taotie Projection he learned was not just a glutton.

……

Qin Yu could sense that his control over Time Rules was becoming clearer at an increasingly fast rate.

This feeling was strange. It was as if he had inherited the power from the original owner of this ‘star’.

And this cultivator who had died had an extremely intricate and profound knowledge of Time Rules.

Not any ordinary Saint would be able to cultivate Time Rules to this level.

This also meant that the cultivator this ‘star’ belonged to was at least at the Ruler realm.

Without a doubt, this was Qin Yu’s chance. But he knew clearly that if Ning Xiao swore not to give up on Yun Qing, it meant that he must be rushing here now. Qin Yu believed that Ning Xiao would not give up this chance to kill him.

Just like how Qin Yu wanted to increase his power before they started heading to the Tomb of the Barbarian King, Ning Xiao must be thinking the same. Qin Yu did not know how far or near Ning Xiao was. He might even appear in the next second and cut off Qin Yu’s chance.

Hurry!

He had to hurry!

There was no reason, but the urgency that filled him seemed to be hinting at something…Qin Yu chose to believe his instinct.

Woosh –

Qin Yu opened his eyes and lifted his hand. As his finger fell, there was a strange feeling in the air. It looked the same as previously, like nothing had changed. Yet at the same time, an unknown change seemed to have occurred.

Boom –

The time ‘star’ was burning. The flame on its surface suddenly soared, and then it melted and disintegrated at a faster speed. It combined what it contained and entered Qin Yu’s body.

Time passed slowly and finally this time ‘star’ slowly used up every last bit of its energy and disappeared.

Hoo –

A violent wind blew and the air in front of Qin Yu seemed to collapse inwards, causing violent twisting in the air.

This was the strange phenomenon that occurred with the disappearance of the time ‘star’.

When the ‘stars’ around it completed shifting and filled the blank space, the place returned to normal.

Coincidentally, Ning Xiao saw this strange sight!

He knew what this meant and his expression shifted. He looked jealous and his expression slowly turned to anger and greed. Successfully finding a target and absorbing a star was the ideal situation that all cultivators entering the Boiling Mountain Fantasy wanted.

This suggested that they had already gained the most crucial thing – lighting up the path for their Great Dao!

But this was not an issue. He just had to kill the Darkness Ruler and swallow him using the Taotie Projection. Then everything that person had would be his.

And his original motive was to kill him!

A murderous glare flared in his eyes. In the next moment, Ning Xiao’s expression changed greatly…because as he barged in, he could sense that within the space there was a calm but astounding change.

That was…time!

As a peak True Saint, he had been dreaming of becoming a Ruler for many years. Ning Xiao had tried to break through numerous times but had always failed. However, he had accumulated a lot of knowledge.

He knew what Time Rules meant to the Ruler realm…the reason why Rulers were called Rulers, and were able to control a large territory and were named the mighty towering giants was because they could control time. The surroundings of wherever they were would be their territory and they could control everything with their will!

Space was easy; time was difficult to get!

This door had stopped so many people from being able to break through. These people would be stuck at the peak of the True Saint realm and be unable to improve.

And now, Ning Xiao could clearly sense the Time Rules that had yet to dissipate from the air.

Coupled with the residual breath and what he had just witnessed, it was not difficult to guess what happened just now – just before he came, the Darkness Ruler had ‘lit up’ a star and gained the Time Rule!

The flame of jealousy burned strongly in his heart and filled his entire being. His eyes reddened. The heavens were so unfair. He had tried for so many years but never saw the chance to break through.

Yet today, he personally witnessed the Darkness Ruler ‘light up’ a star and gained the Time Rule inheritance.

Why? Just why! He could not take this! He was extremely furious!

“Die!”

With a roar, Ning Xiao touched his forehead. The conspicuous ‘little red dot’ between his eyebrows grew like a red bubble. With a ‘pop’, it broke.

Boooom –

A roar sounded through the air. An ancient aura with an intense desire to devour could be felt.

Behind Ning Xiao, the illusion of a giant beast appeared. Its eyes, which were filled with greed, were locked on Qin Yu.

All of a sudden, the illusory beast opened its mouth and the area in front of it fell into darkness…it was as if the entire world was about to be swallowed!

And this was the rumored ancient beast, Taotie. Its stomach could form a part of the world and it could swallow and absorb all kinds of creatures.

Ning Xiao cultivated the Taotie Projection and with every person he swallowed, he could get a portion of Taotie’s power and summon Taotie’s illusion.

Even if it was just an illusion, it was rumored to be a frightening existence that was able to swallow the world. It was still extremely horrifying.

Ning Xiao was not a Ruler but had the fighting power of a Ruler. It was because of this that he was extremely confident and dared to enter Boiling Mountain Fantasy to kill Qin Yu.

Now, as Taotie’s Projection appeared, those below the Ruler realm would not be able to escape…the Darkness Ruler was sure to die!
