In the Sky Mountain. Shu Feng peacefully sat in the backyard of his residence without any awareness of what was going to happen.
The clouds became darker and darker. The Heavens is really angry and mad.
Someone attempted to enter the River of Time!
Just this fact alone would surely incur the wrath of Heaven. How much more if someone was really able to enter and even tried to break pass the barrier and wanted to form a connection?
This is already too much and unforgivable. In the eyes of the Heaven, every living thing must be under the flow of time and no one shall be able to break free!
And yet someone manage to enter and even wanted to form a connection?!
Maybe if it is only a matter of forming a connection that was going to happen then ot was not much of a big deal and will only suffer a punishment, but it is not that simple!
Forming a connection with the River of Time of his world means a lot!
Boom!!!
The first strike descends and directly hits Shu Feng. It didn't made him puke blood nor got a severe damage.
But it was quickly draining his life force! Shu Feng is aging with each second!
His bones, skin, hair and everything about him os getting old with each passing second.
Luckily, he got his passive skill.
Life Regeneration.
As soon as his life force begun to fade, his Chaos Energy got consumed at a alarming rate and trying to bring back all the lost vitality.
It only stopped after a full hour. And Shu Feng looked like someone who was already in the verge of death! He was skinny and looked like a living skeleton!
It was fortunate that he uses Chaos Energy and not just some kind of Energy. Right now, Shu Feng didn't have a single bit of Chaos Energy inside his Chaos Pool.
And this time, his Inner World and all of his vortices started tp react and replenish his Chaos Energy slowly. This made his Inner World decrease in size.
Kei and Zise who was inside, felt that the surrounding Energy was decreasing but didn't pay much attention.
Before his Life Regeneration Skill got activated and restore his Life force, the second and last strike from the Heavens landed into Shu Feng's body.
Within a second, he look like a fifteen year old kid.
Another second passed and he looked like a ten year old kid.
And within a minute, Shu Feng turned into a liquid object.
And just as it was about to turn into nothingness. A notification pop out.
*Ding*
"Instant Recovery Initiates 2/3"
The liquid-like object who was just about to disappear into nothingness started to take a form of a fetus.
Then turning into a baby. Growing and growing until it looks like a Five year old kid. After a full hour, the previous liquid-like object became Shu Feng who was still currently sitting crossed leg.
Inside the River of Time, Feng felt that the barrier disappeared and he could now let his Chaos Energy enter.
He felt relieved that his body manage to break passed that terryfying Tribulation.
As soon as his Chaos Energy entered the River of Time, a huge pressure landed into him and forcing him to kneel.
It was forcing him to withdraw the connection.
But how could Shu Feng just easily give up and waste everything that he had done.
He was already here, so just form the connection and be done with it.
Shu Feng kept on injecting Chaos Energy, but something was odd, this Chaos Energy is different from his normal Chaos Energy.
Shu Feng suddenly remembered that he was not currently inside his body and only his soul entered inside the River of Time!
Then that only means that it was his soul that is being sent to the River of Time!
"Is that a part of my Soul UG?" Shu Feng ask.
*Ding*
"Yes, the Host is currently cultivating the Divine Soul Of Chaos which is turning your soul into Chaos. Which made it similar to your Chaos Energy but different at the same time. As soon as a portion of your Chaos Soul entered the River of Time, it would instantly receive a rejection. So please bear with it."
Shu Feng just gritted his teeth and keep on enduring the pressure.
Soon the weight decreases and the pressure turned into nothing.
Shu Feng could feel his connection to the River of Time.
It felt fantastic and amazing. It was like he has the ability to see what was going to happen within the future.
He felt free. It was like the shackles and bound of Time was removed and he would not be affected by the flow of time!
Such feeling made Shu Feng realized how powerful he is right now.
Shu Feng close his eyes and decided to go back to his body.
.....
The clouds already disperse making the whole forest turned to it's previous state.
Every Beast started to felt relieved and discuss what just happened right now.
It was known that some Beast takes human form earlier than the other beast.
The stronger your bloodline is, the earlier the Beast would be able to take form.
But even Beast that didn't yet take human form, they could still communicate with each other as long as they have sufficient realm.
In the residence where the Tribulation happened, Shu Feng slowly opened his eyes.
A flash of etherial light could be seen in the middle of his eye but it instantly disappeared right after.
Shu Feng looked at his surroundings, he could not see the grass nor the tress, what he see is different. He could see the next motion of the leaves even before it moved.
It was very different and strange yet it felt normal for him. He saw a very different light and the way he looked in the world change.
*Ding*
"Congratulations to the Host for freeing himself from the Bound of Time of this world. Surprise Rewards triggered."
*Ding*
"Due to the system helping the Host for completing the his achievement for 50%, only half of the reward would be given."
*Ding*
"The Host received the following."
[Time Lapse - unranked
Description: It enables the Host to play the time that allows the action around you to progress several times faster than in reality. It would not affect the original time.]
[Clock Of Destiny - unranked
Description: An artifact with twelve seals embedded into it. It was said that unlocking all the seals would enable the user to change his and other's destiny. It has its own independent time and space inside.]
[+50 000 Luck Points]
[+10 000 System Points]
[+10 Luck]
*Ding*
"Luck had surpassed 20, each spin would now cost 10 000 Luck Points."
*Ding*
"The Host received the title [The Man Who Is Not Bound By The Time.] The information regarding the title is currently unavailable."
Shu Feng stared dumbfounded at all the notifications. He was shocked at first but got irritated in the end.
He didn't think that forming a connection and breaking the bounds of time would give him many rewards.
Is UG really only gave him half of his supposed to be rewards?
It was still enormous!
He got exhilarated at his new ability the most, it would allow him to run the time much faster in his perspective without affecting the original time that he was in.
He tried using Time Lapse and he could speed up the time around him ten times faster.
He could at most lapse the time for a hundred seconds.
Within those hundred seconds, he saw the birds on the branch of the trees flying upward and toward the north and then disappearing into the horizon.
After the hundred seconds ended, Shu Feng came back to reality. And just as expected, the birds is still on the branch of the tree!
Nothing change in the original time!
It was like Shu Feng peek into the future! Such ability would let Shu Feng know what was the next move his enemy would execute.
It was a pity that he could only lapse the time for a hundred seconds before reaching his limit.
He did it again, but this time he throws a stone towards the bird before lapsing the time. And surprisingly, what he saw for the next hundred second was different than what he saw a while ago.
'So the results would be change depending on different factors that may change the outcome.' Shu Feng thought and keep on testing his new ability.
Soon, after five tries, his eyes suddenly started to hurt and his mind suddenly felt exhausted. Th4 ability also has a disadvantage, during the time lapse, he wouldn't be able to move and just witness his surroundings.
"I guess this is my limit for now." Shu Feng mumbled when he gently rub his eyes which is currently crying right now.
'Isn't this ability the same as looking into the future?' Shu Feng ask.
*Ding*
"They are not entitely the same. Peeking into the future would take some time and effort. There was even a possibility of Heaven's backlash. And peeking the future would not be effective if it involves someone who is much more stronger than the caster.
But Time Lapse is different, as long as they are bound by the flow of time of this world, they would be affected by your ability no matter how strong they are."
'Woah, that means that I just got an overpowered ability.' Shu Feng thought.
UG didn't comment further.
Shu Feng retrieved the Clock of Destiny next and inspected the insides. And without any instructions from UG, he drip his blood in the artifact.
He felt a connection being stablished. He looked inside the artifact and surprisingly it was not a world that was inside.
It was like an endless illusionary place with thousands of flatform with some strange patterns and symbols on it. They vary in size.
At the bottom, there was a gigantic complicated looking clock that covered the whole space, although he could not see the end, it was still enormous!
He didn't find any extraordinary in it, but since he didn't even unlocked a single seal then that means he could not yet see its ability.
But he was gloomy right after his excitement when he heard that it would cost 10 000 Luck Points just for a single spin?!
*Ding*
"Every ten points of increase in the Host's Luck, the increase for the chance of spinning would also increase. This is also a way to make the deal fair. Due to the increase of your Luck, the more valuable the reward you would received.
In order to not let the Host spoil this advantage, the system decided to increase the cost for spinning."
UG said without any emotion.
Shu Feng didn't argue anymore and finds it reasonable. If it is really the case, then what if because of his Luck that he received an overpowered item with only 1 000 LP, then he would surely.... not abuse it???
Nahh.. of course he would surely abuse it.. Who would miss such a chance?
Shu Feng then recalled his true business in forming a connection with the River of Time.
He spread his Chaos Energy ten meters around him and converted it into Time Element.
This time he didn't need to concentrate that much in converting and he could instantly create the Time Element.
And not just like the previous time, the flow of time didn't destroy the Time Element he created.
Rather, it joins the flow of time around him within the span of ten meters. It was extremely easy.
He tried to slow down the time within those ten meters, he would also try to speed it up but there is still a burden and could only speed it up for five seconds.
He tried to stop and can only stop his surrounding ten meters for two seconds before feeling a great burden.
He tried a much more wider range and the efrect decreases but when he only tried it a few meters around him, the effect was much mote astonishing.
All in all, Shu Feng benefited this whole day.
He suddenly look towards the horizon. And he smiled slightly while looking forward in the events that would happen tomorrow
Luo Yong was also looking towards the horizon and thinking what would happen tomorrow.
The sun sets and it is now time for a rest because tomorrow would surely become a very tiring day.
