Chapter 2229 Time Cave

Rawr!!!

The strength of this group of monsters was not weak. They began to close in on Huang Wen Jing and were attacking her. It seemed as though they would not stop until she was dead.

In the beginning, Huang Wen Jing was still able to cope. However, it did not take long before she began to have trouble fending off the monsters’ endless attacks. In the end, she had exhausted almost all her strength.

Bang!

A loud noise reverberated in the air again as Huang Wen Jing was sent flying against the wall of the pa.s.sage by the endless onslaught from the monsters. She landed heavily on the wall before she slid to the ground.

The wall shook, and Huang Wen Jing spat out a mouthful of blood. Her usual cold expression was gone, and she was pale.

The group of monsters continued their onslaught on Huang Wen Jing. Naturally, they did not and would not understand the sentiment of being gentle to a fair lady. In their minds, all they knew were to kill whatever that stood in their paths.

Even if Huang Wen Jing was not injured, it would still be difficult for her to face the endless onslaught from the monsters, let alone now that she was injured! While she killed a few monsters, several other monsters snuck up from the back to attack her, causing her injuries to worsen. As time went by, her situation began to get more and more perilous.

Is it possible that I, Huang Wen Jing, will die here today?’ Huang Wen Jing’s expression remained emotionless as she looked at monsters charging at her. However, her heart was filled with despair at this moment.

Roar!

Huang Wen Jing heard a fierce roar from the back, but when she finally reacted, she felt a gust of cold wind blowing on her back.

If she was at the peak of her strength, she would have enough time to turn around and deal with the monsters at the back. However, her fighting spirit had decreased. Although she was willing to fight, she had no more strength left in her.

I really didn’t expect to die here today!’ Huang Wen Jing was certain she would not survive this. She was grievously injured, she would not be able to deflect the attacks from the monsters behind her.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

All of a sudden, Huang Wen Jing heard a loud cacophonous sound. She saw a figure das.h.i.+ng toward her at breakneck speed. The figure knocked all the monsters it encountered away as the figure sped toward her.

This figure was a young man with a humanoid dragon body. His handsome but cold face was stained with blood, but it was impossible to tell whether it was his blood or the monsters’ blood.

The young man shouted at Huang Wen Jing as soon as their eyes met. “Duck now!”

The moment she saw the anxiety in the eyes of the young man, she ducked down instinctively without caring about her image.

Fwuh! Fwuh! Fwuh!

As soon as Huang Wen Jing squatted down, she felt a gust of wind blowing past her head. She felt chills running up her spine. If she did not duck earlier, there was no doubt she would have died.

Swoos.h.!.+

From the corner of her eyes, Huang Wen Jing saw a figure flashed past her head.

Another loud noise rang in the air. Through her slightly open eyes, she saw the monsters that were attacking her being knocked away by that figure.

When Huang Wen Jing looked at that figure, she felt peculiar. Her heart felt stuffy as though her heartstring was being tugged.

Every woman when they were young had envisioned being rescued by a prince charming when they were in danger. Huang Wen Jing was no different in this regard.

“Your back against my back. Let’s charge past these monsters!” An urgent-sounding voice snapped her out of her daze. She moved toward his back as they dealt with the bizarre-looking monsters that charged at them with killing intent.

At this moment, Huang Wen Jing was unaware that her cold expression was slowly thawing.

Earlier, due to the reason Huang Wen Jing did not synchronize her attack with Duan Ling Tian, she had fallen to such a state. For this reason, currently, she followed his lead without any complaints. Both of them fought back to back, and things seemed a lot easier to handle. At this point, they had killed all the monsters that came their way.

Huang Wen Jing was not the only one who was injured, even Duan Ling Tian had been injured although it was not as serious as her injuries. Fortunately, it did not affect his strength too much.

“We’re here!” As Duan Ling Tian and Huang Wen Jing charged forward, they finally managed to carve out an escape route and successfully reached the end of the pa.s.sage. They quickly opened the door at the end of the pa.s.sage.

Once they left the pa.s.sage, the monsters no longer followed after them.

They instinctively turned their heads back to check if the monsters had followed after them. However, no monster could be seen. It was as though everything that happened was just a figment of their imagination.

Before Duan Ling Tian and Huang Wen Jing could catch their breaths, a calm voice rang in the air. The owner of the voice sounded old and seemed like he had experienced many things.

“Welcome to the Time Cave!”

Time Cave!?” Duan Ling Tian and Huang Wen Jing instinctively looked at each other and saw the stunned expression on each other’s faces.

Time Cave? What was that?

The voice spoke up again, “When I left this Time Cave, I was a quasi Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master on my way to becoming an Eminent Celestial…”

Duan Ling Tian was stunned when he heard this. A quasi Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master? Was he not a Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master? He could not help but look at Huang Wen Jing in confusion.

“Previously, someone had found a large number of Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons here. Logically, it’s impossible for an ordinary quasi Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master to have so many Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons. That’s why everyone deduced this place was left behind by a Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master,” Huang Wen Jing quickly explained when she saw the confused expression on Duan Ling Tian’s face. Previously, she was also similarly confused.

“There were many Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons?” Upon hearing Huang Wen Jing’s words, the corner of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth instinctively twitched. It was impossible for an ordinary quasi Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master to have so many Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapon.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian finally realized what a big misunderstanding this was. This was not the ruin left behind by a Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master, but it was the ruin left behind by an Eminent Celestial who was a quasi Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master.

The old and aged voice continued to say, “In my life, my biggest obsession is to become a Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master and to inscribe a Saint Weapon that’s much stronger than Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons… I’ve always felt that there must be Saint Weapons more superior than Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons! Unfortunately, even until the day I finally reached the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, successfully pa.s.sed the Heavenly Tribulation, and was only a few steps away from ascending to the Immortal World, I failed to achieve my dream of successfully inscribing a Saint Weapon more powerful than Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons!”

When Duan Ling Tian heard this, he realized that the person who left this ruin was unaware of the existence of 10,000 Inscriptions Saint Weapons that was also known as Super Saint Weapons. It was likely that during the era that person lived in, Super Saint Weapons had not been successfully inscribed yet.

It was not difficult for Duan Ling Tian to guess that the Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master did not exist during that era. The person who left this ruin behind had to come from a much earlier time. He sighed in disappointment. “It seems like this is not the ruin that was left behind by that Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master.”

Huang Wen Jing said, “I agree… According to the rumors, the cultivation base of that Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master was not that high so how could he create such powerful killing Formations? The mystery is finally solved!” Huang Wen Jing was unaware that she was talking more than usual. Moreover, her eyes shone brightly when she spoke.

Compared to the ruin left by a normal Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master, Huang Wen Jing was undoubtedly more interested in the ruin left by an Eminent Celestial. After all, she was not a Saint Inscription Master. For this reason, she was not that interested in the inheritance that was left behind by the Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master. The only thing that piqued her interest was the Super Saint Weapons.

However, Huang Wen Jing was excited by the ruin that was left behind by an Eminent Celestial.

Soon after, the ancient voice began to speak again, “Although I didn’t succeed in inscribing a Saint Weapon that’s more powerful than Thousand Inscriptions Saint Weapons before I ascended to the Immortal World, in the process of inscribing, I’ve unexpectedly discovered a combination of Saint Inscriptions. This combination of Saint Inscriptions required a specific environment to lay out. It’s similar to a one-time Formation but far more special. The Time Cave you’re standing in is exactly where I’ve arranged this particular combination of Saint Inscription. Prior to my ascension to the Immortal World, I’ve left behind three Time Caves. I’ve used two of them. The only one that remains is the one that you’re standing in. The time flow is extremely slow in the Time Cave. However, I’m not certain how slow it is in comparison to the outside world nor am I certain how long a Time Cave would last. A single thought could last a year, ten years or even decades! One of the two Time Caves that I had used lasted for nine years, the other lasted thirteen years. Both have helped me gain a profound insight of two Divine Abilities! There’s a stone platform near you. You can sit on it and unlock the Time Cave with just a thought. I suggest that while you unlock the Time Cave, focus your mind only on one Divine Ability. Otherwise, if you become distracted, the Time Cave wouldn’t be able to last for long. If this happens, it would only be a loss to you.”
