"This was merely the lingering resonance of the mighty power that froze time itself."
"If any of you lack confidence, there is still time to retreat."
"But if you cannot bear to leave just like that."
"Then we ought to discuss this. Who will try first to break through this membrane of frozen time?"
The instant those words reached them.
The boy of the Yin Spirit Path gazed darkly ahead. Not only did he remain silent, but he seemed not even to consider the matter before taking a step back from the gray-lit membrane.
Liu Dongqing's gaze fell imperceptibly upon the boy of the Yin Spirit Path.
He could clearly sense the turbulent storm that had just swept through the Awakened Spirit, Illuminating Essence Dao Lord's unsettled mind.
As he faced the vast flood of spiritual impulses pouring from the lingering resonance of that time-freezing power, the Awakened Spirit, Illuminating Essence Dao Lord's awakened wisdom from past lives seemed to clash violently with his present life's "personality."
Liu Dongqing had likewise heard the overlapping voices of ghosts and gods reciting ancient scriptures from somewhere unseen.
But had the Pure Subtlety Spirit-Bearing Dao Lord not spoken of his own accord.
It would probably have taken several more breaths for the Awakened Spirit, Illuminating Essence Dao Lord to truly regain his senses.
This was the "affliction" of prodigies who had undergone transmigration tribulation.
Perhaps the Awakened Spirit, Illuminating Essence Dao Lord had already begun adjusting to and addressing this affliction, and those ancient scriptures recited in the unseen depths might have been a wondrous method of harmonizing it.
But he needed time, far more time.
Only a handful of days had passed since he attained the realm of a Spirit Transformation Dao Lord.
And time was undoubtedly what he lacked most.
