"Comrade Lu Li, it's 3.9 seconds."
Li Qingshan's answer confirmed Lu Li's suspicions.
The flow of time between Blue Star and the Imprisoned Dragon Realm has changed!
The upper bound is slower than the lower bound.
This is of great significance.
Is it a revival of Spiritual Qi, or a revival of deities?
"It accelerated the flow of time on Blue Star?"
"If this continues, will the flow of time on Blue Star slow down more and more?"
"Even much later, it truly became a case of one day in the upper realm being equivalent to one year in the lower realm!"
My suspicions were confirmed.
Lu Li a chill run down his spine.
The change in the flow of time means that Blue Star has indeed recovered much more than it did two hundred years ago.
This also means that this universe, which resembles ruins, has changed.
This change will definitely hasten the arrival of the Silent Ruins!
This is not a good sign for Lu Li and Great Xia.
Even Lu Li felt his scalp tingle when faced with such a threat.
Blue Star faces the danger of the Silent Ruins, while the Imprisoned Dragon Realm faces the urgent needs of the Hundred Schools of the Central Continent.
Lu Li is truly in a dilemma right now.
Moreover, the slowing down of time on Blue Star is not a good thing for Lu Li.
If it continues to worsen...
Even if it's not as exaggerated as exorbitant as exchanging a day for a year's worth of money.
Whether the exchange is for half a year's worth or just one month's worth, it will affect the development of Blue Star.
Lu Li had always hoped that Blue Star could make further breakthroughs in various Spirit Machinery technologies.
However, if the flow of time slows down, the research and development time will inevitably become longer.
The predicament is becoming increasingly apparent.
"The road ahead is truly difficult..."
Taking a deep breath, Lu Li felt an even greater sense of crisis.
Li Qingshan and the others also understood the seriousness of this change.
Therefore, they could only place their hopes on Lu Li.
Of course, the country will absolutely not give up.
"Comrade Lu Li, the change in the flow of time between the two realms shouldn't be too significant."
"Before we fully accelerate, we will strive to achieve a major breakthrough in advanced Spirit Machinery technology as soon as possible."
"Let us possess our own eighth-tier, or even ninth-tier Spirit Machinery as soon as Mahayana!"
"This is my long-cherished wish, and also... my pledge!"
Li Qingshan's last words were spoken with utmost solemnity.
The Great Xia have experienced countless hardships.
The more difficult the situation, the more we must see the achievements and the light at the end of the tunnel.
For Lu Li right now, the road ahead is becoming increasingly difficult.
The task was equally arduous for Great Xia.
But the more this is the case, the more firmly we must hold onto our beliefs.
After organizing my thoughts and goals, Lu Li's objectives became clear.
Since it's so difficult, he must get a ranking in this Supreme Immortal Seed Battle no matter what.
No, it's number one!
He was aiming for first place.
To secure first place is to gain status and resources.
Completely subdue the Hundred Schools of the Central Continent.
In any case, we need to deal with one side first.
I wonder what the rewards for this Immortal Seed Battle will be like; I hope they exceed expectations.
Then the weight of this first place will become even greater.
Even without any treasures or food, having enough Spirit Stone will suffice.
It would be even better if Lu Li could purchase some supplies and, more importantly, acquire a Mahayana slave.
Having confirmed his target, Lu Li immediately hung up the jade pendant.
He opened his eyes; he was going to register for the Supreme Immortal Seed Battle!
He got up and flew out of the cave abode.
Lu Li flew over Bone Heart City.
Bone Heart City is extremely vast; though called a city, it is in reality just a giant continent with walls.
Flying is permitted within the city, as is the Dharma boat.
Therefore, in the sky above, there were all sorts of magical Law Artifact allowed one to escape, as well as enormous magical boat-like Demon Beast.
One after another, like clouds, they flowed endlessly.
Below, within the endless city walls, there are numerous cultivators.
Occasionally, one or two powerful individuals would suddenly vanish into thin air.
Lu Li needs to go to the official office of the Immortal Sect to register for the Supreme Immortal Seed Battle.
It is not in this Bone Heart City.
It is located within Heaven-Supporting Peak, one of the three main peaks.
That is, the location of the giant white hand, specifically the thumb.
"Besides Bone Heart City, Bone Mountain Immortal Market also has five peaks."
"The five peaks are Heaven-Supporting Peak, Immortal-Slaying Peak, Central Saint Peak, Treasure Repository Peak, and Seeking the Dao Peak."
"This means that the three peaks of the Immortal Immortal-Slaying Central Saint Treasure Repository Cave—the index, middle, and ring fingers—are off-limits to ordinary cultivators."
"These three peaks are probably the true core area of the Immortal Pavilion."
"The rest are open to the public."
While pondering these thoughts, Lu Li summoned a sixth-tier magic ship.
They flew rapidly toward the enormous pillar supporting the Heaven-Supporting.
Bone Mountain Immortal Market is too big.
Lu Li had made a rough estimate.
This Immortal Market is definitely larger than the Eastern Desolation Star.
Its sheer size suggests that this place is likely the self-imposed abode of the Bone Mountain Supreme.
Lu Li was eager to know why this Bone Mountain Supreme possessed such exceptional talent and formidable combat power.
Having earned the title of Supreme, why haven't they ascended to immortality yet?
According to popular rumors, the current Bone Mountain Supreme fought his way up from the Supreme Battle 30,000 years ago.
They are truly exceptional talents.
To be honest, the ancestors of the Central Continent Miscellaneous School on the Eastern Desolation Star once served under this Supreme Being.
Even such a powerful being has not ascended to immortality after 30,000 years.
That's rather strange.
"Furthermore... shouldn't that ancestor of the Miscellaneous School, being Mahayana, have sealed his aura?"
"Why were you able to leave this immortal workshop and settle down in the Eastern Wasteland?"
"I have a feeling that the Imprisoned Dragon Realm tens of thousands of years ago is somewhat different from the Imprisoned Dragon Realm of today."
It wasn't that Lu Li was overthinking things; it was genuinely regardless of his feelings.
The information he gathered over the years came from Elder Jian, Yinyang Qingfan, and Chu Changyue.
All of this reveals one thing: the Imprisoned Dragon Realm has undergone tremendous changes over the past tens of thousands of years!
Previously, Lu Li thought that only the Eastern Wasteland had undergone significant changes over the past tens of thousands of years.
After arriving in the starry sky, he discovered that it wasn't just the Eastern Desolation Star.
It seems that this is the case throughout the entire Imprisoned Dragon Realm.
In just tens of thousands of years, the information about the Central Continent revealed by Elder Jian was completely incorrect.
The Imprisoned Dragon Realm in Yinyang Qingfan's memories was not like this either.
The rumors of certain Mahayana ascensions from the past have become increasingly rare over the past tens of thousands of years.
Even the master of this Bone Mountain Immortal Market, Mahayana Supreme from 30,000 years ago, had not yet ascended.
" The Mahayana of thirty thousand years..."
Both Yinyang Qingfan and Elder Jian have said that the Mahayana path leads to a lifespan of ten thousand years.
Those with the strongest cultivation and the best foundation will have a longer lifespan.
"There are occasionally twenty thousand, or even as many as thirty thousand."
"But 30,000 years old is not young after all. Surely this Supreme won't have no chance to ascend?"
As thoughts raced through his mind, Lu Li gradually approached the giant white bone finger.
Compared to the other peaks, this peak is noticeably thicker and shorter.
Even so, once you get close, it gives you the feeling of descending into a star.
A magnificent continent slowly appeared before Lu Li's eyes.
Heaven-Supporting Peak is much quieter than Bone Heart City.
The cultivators in the city were clearly much stronger.
Furthermore, as far as Lu Li could see, large numbers of Void Return cultivators flew by and swept away.
Undoubtedly, these people have all come to participate in the Supreme Immortal Seed Battle.
As he slowly descended, Lu Li surveyed the people around him.
They are also looking for a place to register.
As his Divine Sense shifted, lightning suddenly exploded in the distant sky.
Immediately following, gasps of surprise rose and fell.
" Heavenly Thunder Holy Son!"
"It's the Thunder Saint Son of Thunder Abyss Holy Land Heavenly Thunder Holy Son! He actually came too!"
