Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

During the next few days, Qin Wentian didn’t go out needlessly. His understanding of the Convention was already sufficient and he was quietly waiting for its commencement.

The date has finally almost arrived. In just three more days, the Convention shall commence. Also, during these three days, the people who came to Time City to attend the Convention also started to head there to the gathering point.

Dawn just arrived, the sun has yet to rise but right now, the atmosphere of the entire Time City was already extremely bustling. Countless experts was overwhelmed by emotions. Yet another convention was going to commence. After all, this convention was held only once every ten thousand years. They couldn’t help but wonder what good fortune they might encounter this time around.

In the Ten Miles Inn, the atmosphere today was different than usual. There would be endless batches of people rising into the air, leaving the inn. The peace and quiet usually was now disrupted early in the morning.

Inside his own courtyard, Qin Wentian stared at the air. He could see countless experts soaring through, heading towards a certain direction. There were simply too many experts, including many world overlords. In addition, there would be an occasional few with extremely powerful auras.

They were all heading towards the same location. This location was named the Time Realm, it was the place where the Convention of the Myriad Realm would commence.

The commencement location naturally would have to be a space that was large enough to accommodate vast amounts of people. After all, many of the participants were all world overlords.

Inside Time City, there was a mysterious realm that existed since ancient times up until now. It was said that that realm was the realm the Time King had cultivated in when he was still alive. Right now, it was jointly governed and shared by the three hegemonic powers of the Mystic Region.

That location, was none other than the Time Realm.

The Time Realm was extremely wondrous. Inside there, the flow of time is often disordered, possessing a unique rhythm. Every ten thousand years, the rate of the flow of time would reach a peak. If you spent a year in there, only a day worth of time would pass on the outside.

Naturally, it was impossible to maintain this flow ratio forever. Only for a short period of time once every ten thousand years would this be possible. If one stayed in Time Realm for a long time, there might be periods where time spent inside the Time Realm is much shorter than time spent on the outside. Maybe a single day in Time Realm might be equal to a year of time outside.

Being able to change the flow of time, how heavenly-defying was that? From this, one could very well imagine how powerful the person named ‘Time King’ was.

“Brother Qin, when are you moving out?” At this moment, a figure came over. This was none other than the inn’s boss, Ten Miles Springwind. He was the same as before and seemed extremely spirited. Below his white brows, his gaze had a look of joyfulness. Although this fellow was a little shameless, he seemed to be living a happy life everyday.

“We are just preparing to set off. What about you?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Haha, let’s go together. I’ll call for them.” Ten Miles Springwind laughed.

“No need.” A voice drifted over as Cao Tian directly appeared.

“Brother Cao.” Qin Wentian called out. During these days, he grew more and more familiar with this group of new friends. After all, they had robbed the Heaven Immortal Tower together. Their relationships would naturally be deeper after that.

“Mhm, old brother Qin, this is the first time you are attending the Convention, right? Things will surely be very interesting for you.” Cao Tian laughed.

“Ai, I’m old now.” Old Ghost mumbled. He suddenly appeared directly beside them. He was the oldest among this group of people and ever since he knew Qin Wentian reached this level within a thousand years of cultivation, his confidence had suffered a setback.

“You are indeed old now.” Phoenix also arrived. The five man party that looted the Heaven Immortal Manor all gathered here now. It was unknown if the Heaven Immortal Tower would be able to link this group of five to the robbery if they saw them.

“Do you want to bring your family and friends along?” Ten Miles Springwind asked.

“Mhm, since the Time Realm doesn’t prohibit that, I wish to bring them along with me and allow them to broaden their horizons.” Qin Wentian spoke. In truth, he was worried about leaving Qing`er and Qingcheng alone inside Time City.

“No problem, the Convention of the Myriad Realms will naturally make satisfactory arrangement for that. Many world overlords would bring their friends and family along as well.” Ten Miles Springwind explained and continued, “Since this is the case, should we head out now?”

“Sure.” Qin Wentian nodded. The others agreed as well. Qin Wentian gathered everyone and the group of them soared into the air, flying towards the direction of the Time Realm.

As the legendary place of Time City, the location of the Time Realm was in the central core location of Time City. There was an ancient building with its top touching the clouds, it exuded a sense of majesticness and although it was a little dilapidated, its original form was maintained and there was a stairway that led upwards. Legend has it that this place was the residence of the Time King, or better known as the Godking of Time. The entrance to the Time Realm existed right at the top of this ancient building.

At this moment, floods of people could be seen below. It was unknown how many had gathered here today. When they stared at the stairway, all of them had looks of anticipation on their faces, as though they hated the fact that they were not able to witness the splendor of the Time King personally and could only revere the place where he stayed in.

Among these people, the world overlords here were as common as clouds and there were also many transcendent-level world overlords. In fact, many existences were major characters who had a realm or numerous territories under them. Their statuses were extremely terrifying.

The crowd all gathered in different locations as they belonged to different camps. There were some people standing independently, not belonging to any group, and there were also many world overlords of the same level gathering together as they went to pay their respects to the major characters at the world overlord realm.

“The people from the Samsara Temple have arrived. At this moment, someone spoke out. Countless people stared in the air only to see experts from an immensely strong major power arriving. Each of them were dazzling in their own rights and had unfathomable auras. Their gazes all felt extremely fearsome as though they had the ability to see through the six cycles of samsara.

Countless people turned their eyes over. Qin Wentian, who have already arrived here, also turned to glance at them. Nanfeng Yaoyue’s beautiful eyes flashed as she asked in a low voice. “Are they the legendary powers responsible for the spreading of dao elements?”

In the Mystic Region, there are quite a few powers like this. They were responsible for spreading their dao elements to other locations, including lower worlds. Qin Wentian and the others have heard of this before and this Samsara Temple was precisely one of such powers. Other than the three hegemonic powers that ruled the Mystic Region, the Samsara Temple was second to none other.

“I wonder if the dao elements in the City of Ancient Emperors back in our Azure Mystic has something to do with them or not?” Qin Wentian silently mused.

At this moment, more exclamations could be heard from the crowd as their gazes turned to the horizons, staring at a group of figures who were soaring through the air.

“The Wuji Immortal Realms have arrived.”

“Mhm, it’s indeed the Wuji Immortal Realms.” Many people spoke.

“Mhm, they are indeed from the Wuji Heavens.” Many people spoke. This group had many imposing figures, there were many world overlords in there, and was clearly exuding an imposing aura.

“The Wuji Heavens, one of the four immortal realms controlled by the Mystic Region.” Qin Wentian mumbled.

“In any case, you wouldn’t care too much about it, right?” Ten Miles Springwind lightly laughed. Qin Wentian stared at his smile and speechlessly shook his head. “I’m just not used to following the commands of others.”

“I can tell.” Ten Miles Springwind laughed. “Look, they have arrived.”

As the sound of his voice faded, another group of powerful experts from a major power could be seen flying here from another direction. There were also plenty of world overlords in this group and the might they exuded was extremely terrifying. Although they were flying above the heads of many people, no one dared to say a thing.

In this group, Qin Wentian saw a familiar figure. It was none other than Donghuang Ying, the beautiful maiden who invited him to be her follower back then. The young man from before still followed beside her, as though he was a flower guardian.

“The Eastern Royal Heavens is here as well. It’s rumored that they sent a little princess to lead them. Could this little princess be this young woman in the lead?” Many people stared at Donghuang Ying as they speculated.

“How beautiful, and she has a heroic aura. Given her young age, she is already an empyrean. I heard that this little princess is truly extremely young.” Many people discussed. Donghuang Ying was naturally none other than the little princess of the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms.

The Mystic Region controls four immortal realms. The Eastern Royal Heavens, Scarlet Sun Heavens, Wuji Heavens and Beginning Heavens. They were different from Azure Mystic, the overlords of each of the immortal realms had complete governance and authority yet they were also vassal forces under the three hegemon-level powers in the Mystic Region.

This was the same for the other Supreme Ancient Regions except for the Desolate Region.

“This lass has grown up.” Cao Tian stared at Donghuang Ying as he spoke. Qin Wentian’s heart trembled, he had never asked Cao Tian about his identity before but he actually referred to the Eastern Royal’s little princess as little lass? What is his background then? He should be on the same level as her at the very least or he wouldn’t dared to say that.

In that case, Ten Miles Springwind and the others staged the robbery because they truly had confidence? Even if something went wrong, they would instantly shred all pretense of cordiality and Cao Tian would reveal his identity. Once Cao Tian did so, not even the Dragon Pool Manor would dare to do anything.

“Hey, your clan members have arrived too.” Ten Miles Springwind spoke. From afar, another group of powerful experts could be seen flying over. Their bodies glowed with a dazzling divine glow and there were similarly many world overlords in this group, each of them seemingly extraordinary and unexcelled in the world.

“Cao Tian’s clan?” Qin Wentian mumbled. The people in the surroundings started to discuss, and after Qin Wentian heard their words, his heart trembled. He stared at Cao Tian, “Who would have thought that Big Brother Cao actually has such an impressive background.”

Cao Tian was actually from a clan that controls an immortal realm. His clan was actually the overlord of the Scarlet Sun Immortal Realms.

“Don’t mention it. My clan members don’t really like me.” Cao Tian spoke. “It’s still better to depend on myself.”

As the sound of Cao Tian’s voice faded, a sharp gaze from that group instantly turned over, as though that person heard Cao Tian’s words. The gaze was somewhat cold, Cao Tian wasn’t willing to be in the weaker position as he began to match gazes with that person. Their gazes collided in midair with such intensity that it seemed as though sparks would appear. Are they really clan members? This seemed like a meeting between two enemies. Qin Wentian was somewhat speechless when he saw this.

However, Cao Tian probably hasn’t severed all connections with his clan or Ten Miles Springwind and the others wouldn’t say that the Dragon Pool Manor wouldn’t dare to do anything once Cao Tian revealed his background.

There should probably be another story behind why Cao Tian chose to venture out and establish his own power.

“Big brother, you are here as well. Why don’t you come and join us?” A world overlord stared at Cao Tian. This man was extremely good-looking and had an impressive demeanor.

“Hmph.” Cao Tian coldly snorted. “I’m together with my friends.”

“Just a bunch of lowlifes, how can they be your friends?” The person who matched gaze with Cao Tian earlier coldly stared at Qin Wentian’s group as he spoke with disdain, not giving the slightest bit of face to Cao Tian.
