It turned out that he had encountered space-time power long ago; he simply had not known what that power was at the time.
Now, he finally understood something of it. The legendary space-time power was actually this powerful.
The Demon Emperor kept trying to circulate that sliver of power.
As the saying went, the first step was always the hardest. Before encountering space-time power, trying to circulate it was difficulty piled upon difficulty.
Because he could not sense space-time power at all.
But things were different now. Not only could he sense it, he could also attempt to use it.
This was an almost unimaginable leap forward.
Demon Emperor Daochen refused to let this rare opportunity slip away. He began frantically absorbing this power.
He kept trying to circulate it.
But he did not understand how to circulate space-time power, after all. He could only rely on his previous cultivation methods, hoping to make it circulate within his body.
Yet despite countless attempts, the power that had been driven into his body merely rested quietly within his purple mansion, without the slightest movement.
The Demon Emperor pondered for a long time. Space-time power was undoubtedly different from other powers.
Therefore, the method of absorbing it had to be different as well.
Moreover, as he understood it, anything involving spacetime could not possibly be understood through conventional means.
Just like this space-time power: it was clearly right there, yet before the Demon Emperor understood it, he could not sense its existence at all.
Perhaps this power had now manifested and could even be sensed by him, but it did not actually exist in this stretch of time.
It might well exist only within another time and space.
Trying to circulate power that existed in another time within the present was impossible,
