Five hundred years later.
It had been 2,500 years since Yun He arrived at the Ancestral God Cult, and 4,000 years since Luo Feng began the Star Tower's Life-and-Death Inheritance.
Purple Thorn Island was surrounded by endless five-colored auroras.
Inside Yun He's residence.
In a pavilion.
Yun He opened his eyes as he sat cross-legged, a faint smile forming on his lips.
Time Deceleration—Comprehension complete!
Comprehension of all three branches of the time law—Time Acceleration, Time Suspension, and Time Deceleration—complete!

It would not be possible in the short
