And at that very moment…

 

*Boooooom…* A thunderous roar resounded as a terrifying torrent of energy erupted from in between Yu Zi Yu’s palm, where Time and Space were converging.

 

It was also accompanied by a radiance as dazzling as a star, illuminating the world.

 

It was the sign of Time and Space fusing together.

 

However, their mutual repulsion alone seemed to carry the potential to tear reality apart.

 

Just then…

 

“Not good…” In his heart, Yu Zi Yu shouted in alarm, as his expression shifted dramatically, because in that instant, he felt the repulsion from Time suddenly surge explosively.

 

The Principle of Time was profound, elusive, and unfathomable.

 

And precisely because of this, it was also the most arrogant.

 

Fusing with any other Principle!? Impossible!

 

And thus…

 

*Splaaaash… Splaaaash…* The Sea of Time Principle began to churn violently, surging with power that grew more and more tempestuous.

 

It was rampaging, wildly and fiercely.

 

At the same time, the power of Time flooded across Heaven and Earth.

 

Half the skies of the Nine Realms came to a standstill.

 

That was the power of Time… a force capable of rendering the very world motionless.

 

More importantly, all signs were pointing to the eruption of a Temporal Turbulence.

 

And what was a Temporal Turbulence? It was something even Hegemons dreaded. It was a terror beyond terror.

 

If half of the Nine Realms were to fall into it, the entire Nine Realms might very well collapse.

 

And that would mean Yu Zi Yu’s Grand Divine Ability—the Nine Realms of Heaven—would come to a premature end.

 

“Damn it… do I really have to give up?” Yu Zi Yu couldn’t help but sign in resignation, realizing that he had been too hasty.

 

Despite having not been tamed the power of time, he had forced a fusion like this.

 

Backlash was inevitable!

 

“Haaa…what a pity…” With another sigh, a bitter smile tugged at the corner of Yu Zi Yu’s lips.

 

However, at that very moment, a graceful silhouette, standing silently by a lake in the Realm of Life, suddenly seemed to sense something. Her lips curled ever so slightly.

 

“Master…” She gently called out, as a radiance that could not be put into words, bloomed within her eyes.

 

Then…

 

*Tap…* As she took a single step forward, the girl, clad in a resplendent five-colored gown, ascended into the sky, She walked toward the Sea of Time Principle.

 

“Aurora…”

 

“Sister Aurora, what are you doing?!”

 

…

 

Shouts of astonishment echoed one after another, with Bull Demon, White Tiger, and others all staring at her figure in disbelief.

 

“I’m going to help Master…” She glanced back, and gave a gentle smile, just as she had at the first meeting.

 

And in the very next moment, with another step forward, her figure began to change, and within just a few breaths, she had transformed into a Five-Colored Spirit Flower.

 

Amidst the beautiful five hues, one could also spot a sixth color in the making.

 

With this Spirit Flower as the center, waves of iridescent mist, of six-colors, burst forth like a tidal wave, surging in every direction.

 

In the blink of an eye, the entire world was swept in brilliance.

 

At the same time, an indescribable fragrance spread throughout Heaven and Earth…

 

The flower was known as the Fleeting Time Flower, an extremely rare Divine Flower.

 

If it were to appear in the universe, it would undoubtedly provoke bloodshed among the Myriad Races.

 

And all this because even a single petal from this flower… could grant one the chance to touch the Principle of Time.

 

And should one wholly refine her, mastering the Principle of time would be a piece of cake.

 

Apart from this, the Fleeting Moment Flower kept blooming and withering in a constant cycle. Wherever she was rooted, the flow of time would warp.

 

Furthermore, she carried a natural Temporal Formation.

 

If operated in a proper manner, she could become the deepest foundation of a great Force. The ultimate trump card.

 

This… was a Divine Flower.

 

Throughout the entire universe, one could find only a handful of such flowers, their names still very much resounding in the records of Myriad Races, like the Flower of the Other Shore.

 

These flowers had carried such mystical power that they had left a huge mark in the annals of history.

 

In fact, their fame was no lesser than the legendary Heaven and Earth Divine Trees.

 

These were the true Supreme Treasures of Heaven and Earth, wondrous gifts of nature that Fate rarely allowed mortals to glimpse. Unless one bore profound fortune, they remained forever out of reach.

 

And now, the Six-Colored Flower began to bloom in a cyclic manner: One petal fell, and another promptly appeared in its place, accompanied by a radiant yet beautiful pulse of prismatic light.

 

The flower birthed and withered in a blink.

 

Each cycle marked the passage of an instant, and in that fleeting moment, the very concept of time blurred.

 

Shadows and light twisted around each other, losing form and clarity.

 

“Master…” A voice like a spring breeze whispered into Yu Zi Yu’s mind, sending a fierce jolt through his entire being, because at that very moment, the ravaging power of Time, that violent and untamable power, suddenly calmed down.

 

It was as if the feral beast had turned into a meek lamb.

 

Even more shocking, the vast Sea of Time Principle too had turned serene.

 

“How… how is this possible…?” Yu Zi Yu’s voice was laced with awe and disbelief.

 

If it was just affecting the power of Time spilling into the surroundings, he could accept that.

 

However, pacifying his own Principle of Sea? He found it beyond unthinkable.

 

Tied to one’s Dao Heart, the Sea of Principle was mystical and unique to each person. No one but the bearer could stir its tides.

 

And yet now, the unthinkable happened.

 

With eyes filled with wonder, Yu Zi Yu turned his gaze toward a nearby spot.

 

There, a beautiful flower of six colors approached. Its petals spilled brilliant clouds of glowing mist, washing over the sky like a radiant tide.

 

“Aurora…” He whispered the name with a smile.

 

He recognized her right away.

 

She was one of the very first few to follow him.

 

The Five-Colored Spirit Flower, also known as Aurora.

 

Once upon a time, even Humans and Mutant Beasts coveted her existence, until the Misty Mountains intervened to save her.

 

Since then, Yu Zi Yu had protected her to this very day.

 

[Shouldn’t she be supposed to be in secluded cultivation?] Just as doubt rose in his heart, a playful voice rang in his mind, “Master, I’ve already stepped into Tier-6… That’s why I came out…”

 

Her tone was proud and joyful, like a child showing off her achievements.

 

“That’s great…That’s really great…” Yu Zi Yu nodded again and again, happiness blooming in his heart.

 

[This is really good news!] As for why Yu Zi Yu was completely calm, it was simple because he had noticed that his and Aurora’s time had stopped flowing.

 

He and Aurora now stood in a world suspended between seconds.

 

Looking up, the wind had ceased. The clouds stood frozen.

 

The entire world seemed to have been frozen.

 

Vaguely, one could also discern a flash of lightning across the sky, like a white wave, stretching out half a silhouette…

 

The world had stopped, while he and Aurora had entered a separate timeline.
