Mu Xie's voice rang out. "Little Junior Brother, did Master ask you to choose a battle technique?"
Lu Yin suppressed the sense of danger that had made his heart race. "He did."
"What did you choose?" Mu Xie asked.
"Nine Suns Transforming Cauldron," Lu Yin replied.
Mu Xie nodded. "I cultivated Seek Ancient Source."
"I know. I'm the only one who's ever cultivated Nine Suns Transforming Cauldron—not just now, but throughout history," Lu Yin replied.
Mu Xie's gaze turned profound. "Actually, I chose Nine Suns Transforming Cauldron. It sounded incredibly powerful, but Master said I wasn't fated for it. I had no choice but to cultivate Seek Ancient Source. Still, looking back, I'm glad I did. Otherwise, I really couldn't have saved you." He turned to Xia Shenji. "I've never heard of anyone from the Xia family wielding the power of time. I'm curious—how did you cultivate it?"
Xia Shenji's expression changed dramatically. A storm of shock surged through him. This man had actually seen through his power of time?
Lu Yin was stunned. Time Power? Xia Shenji actually wielded Time Power?
He suddenly thought of Ancestor Chen. Neither historical records nor legends had ever said that Ancestor Chen cultivated Time Power. But from practicing Reverse Step, Lu Yin knew that reaching the level of Reverse Chaotic Space-Time at the peak of the Enlightenment Realm required one to sense time—and Ancestor Chen could do that. From this, Lu Yin had guessed that Ancestor Chen wielded Time Power.
But without proof, it had been no more than a guess.
Now that Xia Shenji also wielded Time Power, Lu Yin was almost certain that Ancestor Chen had mastered it too.
The power of time couldn't be cultivated through ordinary practice. Lu Yin's talent was unrivaled throughout history, yet he still couldn't sense
