Understanding the dao

Yet Shun Long was completely unaware of this, while his eyes were closed and his mind had entered a state of enlightenment, as he tried to comprehend the Dao of Time.

More and more time passed, while the blue light around his body sometimes became dim, while at other times it would be extremely bright.

Another year passed like this inside the foggy place in the 'Time Rock', however, Shun Long was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, while the blue light had completely covered his body.

''What is time? Is it an unstoppable river that sweeps away everything, something that no one can touch? No...''

Time continued to pass like this as Shun Long tried to sense the passing seconds around him.

At the same time, back inside the inn room, Liu Mei had closed her eyes, sitting cross-legged on the meditation cushion, as she consumed another top-tier 4th rank 'spirit enhancement pill, when he suddenly felt a rumble. within his spiritual space.

Although more than a year had passed inside the foggy place in 'Time Stone, 2 months had passed for Liu Mei indoors.

During the past 2 months he had spent in seclusion, his soul and spiritual power had been strengthened to its limits, while his cultivation had also reached the peak of rank 9 in the Heaven grade.

The only reason he had yet to attempt his breakthrough to the Spirit realm, was because Shun Long had told him to strengthen his soul and spiritual power to the limit by consuming 'Spirit enhancing pills'.

And today, Liu Mei finally felt her soul and spiritual power reach its limit, while her spiritual space began to expand.

3 hours later, his spiritual space had grown to almost a third of its original size, while his soul and spiritual power were now many times larger than before.

Liu Mei had an excited expression as she opened her eyes, but the moment her gaze fell on the meditation pillow opposite her, a worried and anxious expression immediately appeared on her face.

''Long-ge... Are you okay?''

It has been almost 2 months since Shun Long last returned. Since then, Liu Mei had risen from the initial rank 9 all the way to the peak of rank 9 in the Heaven class, and she was ready to attempt her breakthrough to the Spirit realm.

However, Shun Long still did not return.

After taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Liu Mei shook her head as she thought

''No, Long-ge must be fine. After all, understanding the Dao was not easy.

It also took me 2 months to understand the basics of the Dao of Ice, before breaking through to the Heaven level, and it was still the first time.

If I try to break through to the Spirit realm using the Dao of Ice as my foundation, I will definitely need more than 2 months as well.''

As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Liu Mei's worries began to subside.

He knew that the best thing he could do right now, was to bring himself to a peak state before attempting his breakthrough to the Spirit realm.

After all, after peeking through the Abyss of Death and absorbing so much death aura in his mission with Shun Long, Liu Mei's understanding of the Dao of Death was more than high enough to attempt his breakthrough.

He still remembered the scene during his first mission with Shun Long, where his skeleton and undead knights were unable to help, as a determined look appeared in his beautiful black eyes.

Then, as he circulated 'Moonlight Sigil', the aura of death in the surroundings quickly began to thicken.

Time passed as Liu Mei absorbed the power of the middle-grade spirit stone, while the death aura within the room became increasingly stronger with each second.

The black panther that was still sleeping in the courtyard, suddenly opened his eyes and looked into Liu Mei and Shun Long's room.

The intelligence of the black beetle tiger is no lower than that of an adult human. Since the panther knew that this aura of death belonged to his master's wife, he once again closed his eyes before spreading his soul sense further out of the courtyard, making sure that no one dared to disturb Liu Mei during this time.

The same time as Liu Mei tried her breakthrough to the Spirit realm, Shun Long's eyes inside the misty place suddenly opened.

He could suddenly feel a part of the flow of time around him, and although it was a very subtle feeling, Shun Long was sure that it was still there.

It was like an invisible membrane that embraced everything.

Shun Long could also sense, that once he focused hard enough, he could actually feel this subtle feeling.

At that moment, he also knew that he had gained a deeper insight in the Dao of Time.

Every step forward in understanding the Dao is difficult, but the benefits will always be great.

However, at the same time when Shun Long seemed to have gained an understanding in the Dao of Time, the 'Time Stone' within his spiritual space began to spin clockwise.

Its rotation speed was slow at first, but soon, it quickly accelerated.

Shun Long could almost hear a buzzing sound from his spiritual space, which was also similar to a call.

A feeling of urgency quickly filled his heart, but the 'Time Stone' did not seem to stop spinning.

Little Black could feel Shun Long's emotions that seemed to have suddenly changed, as the black dragon immediately wrapped itself around its master.

However, the moment the buzz within his spiritual space reached its peak, Shun Long could feel the 'Time Stone' releasing a powerful blue light that covered his entire body.

His vision then started to blur and under Little Black's shocked eyes, Shun Long suddenly disappeared from the misty space.

Although his vision was blurred and he could not see anything in front of him, he could feel spatial distortions around his body, while the time membranes around him were also affected.

It is unknown how long later, Shun Long found himself appearing in front of a magnificent white palace, which he had never seen before.

However, before he could examine his surroundings, as soon as the spatial distortion disappeared around him, Shun Long could feel a powerful pressure crushing down on his body, which forced him to fall to the ground, making him barely able to breathe.
