Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 1434: Chapter 1433: Ethereal Stone

In the Dragon God Palace square, Feng Wuchen was looking at the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, lost in thought.

After killing Heavenly Mechanism, Feng Wuchen returned to the Dragon God Palace.

“Brother Feng, what are you looking at the Qiankun Tower for?” Ling Xiaoxiao asked curiously, her beautiful eyes also glancing up at the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower suspended in midair.

But Ling Xiaoxiao couldn’t discern anything.

“Xiao Xiao, I was wondering, if I use the power of time to accelerate its flow, could we have more time?” Feng Wuchen mused.

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiaoxiao was taken aback and awkwardly replied, “Brother Feng, I don’t quite understand.”

“The Seventh Layer space of the Qiankun Tower has five times the cultivation time, which basically means that time flows five times faster there compared to the outside world,” Feng Wuchen explained thoughtfully.

“Hmm, and then?” Ling Xiaoxiao listened intently.

Feng Wuchen said, “My power of time can control the speed of time, even rewind it. Since the Seventh Layer space accelerates time flow, I can also do that. Imagine if I integrate the time power into the Fifth Layer space, wouldn’t it create an additional cultivation sanctuary?”

Ling Xiaoxiao furrowed her delicate brows, thought for a moment, and nodded, “Hearing Brother Feng say it like that, it seems reasonable. The Seventh Layer space is indeed too small, and if we could make a larger space, Qingyang and the others could quickly improve their cultivation.”

“Though that’s true, doing it is difficult. It’s not just about integrating the time power into the Fifth Layer space. It requires an array to sustain it, which can be arranged using the formation in the Seventh Layer space. But I’ve never been able to figure out the formation in the Seventh Layer space,” Feng Wuchen shook his head.

After pausing, Feng Wuchen continued, “Moreover, the Seventh Layer space is very mysterious. Outside, time flows five times faster, but we don’t feel it inside. Although my power of time can accelerate the flow, people’s actions would also speed up, which is the most challenging part.”

“That must be due to the formation,” Ling Xiaoxiao affirmed.

“Indeed, I’ve been researching the formation of the Seventh Layer space these past two days, but unfortunately, I have no clues,” Feng Wuchen said helplessly.

Ling Xiaoxiao chuckled lightly, “Brother Feng, you shouldn’t rush these things. The more you hurry, the harder it is to comprehend. Sometimes, if you don’t think about it, you might understand it unintentionally.”

“What kind of reasoning is that?” Feng Wuchen looked at Ling Xiaoxiao in surprise.

“The reasoning of going with the flow,” Ling Xiaoxiao replied with a smug smile.

Feng Wuchen shrugged and smiled, “Alright, Xiao Xiao makes sense.”

“Brother Feng, take your time to study. I’m off to cultivate; I must quickly break through to the Heavenly Monarch Realm. I can’t let Brother Feng surpass me too much,” Ling Xiaoxiao teased, then gave Feng Wuchen a quick kiss on the cheek before entering the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower.

“I haven’t even kissed back, and she’s gone,” Feng Wuchen said with a helpless smile.

“Master.” As Feng Wuchen’s words fell, the respectful voice of the Qiankun Tower rang out.

“Hmm?” Feng Wuchen raised an eyebrow and quickly said, “Right, I nearly forgot you’re the most knowledgeable about the Qiankun Tower.”

“The formation in the Seventh Layer space of the Qiankun Tower is a special formation set by Ling Xuzi. The creation of the Seventh Layer space was possible because Ling Xuzi combined the power of time with a special formation. The formation’s role is to make the accelerated time flow become still, resulting in the Seventh Layer space,” the Qiankun Tower respectfully transmitted.

“The key lies in the formation. Do you know the structure of the formation?” Feng Wuchen asked.

“Yes, I will transmit the information of the special formation to the master now,” the Qiankun Tower immediately transmitted the details of the special formation into Feng Wuchen’s mind.

The information of the special formation flooded into his mind, with its incredibly intricate and all-encompassing structure, surprising Feng Wuchen immensely. He secretly marveled at Ling Xuzi’s high level of mastery in the formation art.

“What an exquisite formation!” Feng Wuchen couldn’t help exclaiming, utterly astonished.

“Yin and Yang, Eight Gates, Life and Death, Taiyi Two Extremes—a combination of the essences of various formations! How much time must it have taken to research such a formation?” Feng Wuchen was shocked, gaping in disbelief.

“Ethereal Stone?” Feng Wuchen furrowed his brows slightly and said, “I’ve never heard of Ethereal Stones, and there’s nothing about them in Dragon Venerable’s memory. They are the most crucial material for setting up the formation, though the other materials aren’t difficult.”

“Ethereal Stones are a very special type of Crystal Stone that can suppress the flow of time. Gu Tongtian is the president of the guild, and the master can ask him,” the Qiankun Tower’s voice relayed.

Feng Wuchen nodded slightly and immediately flew to the guild.

Gu Tongtian and others were busy overseeing the construction of the guild’s palace, engaged in directing the building efforts for quite some time.

The guild palace is enormous, requiring a substantial amount of time to build due to its magnitude.

“President Gu.” Feng Wuchen’s voice preceded his arrival as he approached swiftly.

“Lord Feng?” The directing Gu Tongtian and the three elders looked in surprise at Feng Wuchen, who was flying over quickly.

“President Gu, I have something to ask you.” Feng Wuchen said as he appeared before them.

“Please, Lord Feng.” Gu Tongtian smiled.

Feng Wuchen asked, “President Gu, have you heard of Ethereal Stones?”

“Ethereal Stones?” Gu Tongtian was puzzled, asking, “What does Lord Feng need Ethereal Stones for?”

Feng Wuchen was delighted and asked, “President Gu knows about Ethereal Stones?”

Gu Tongtian nodded and said, “Ethereal Stones are a very rare type of Crystal Stone, said to control time flow and used mainly in refining space magical artifacts. However, the existence of Ethereal Stones is as elusive as Divine Artifacts—rarely encountered, a true treasure among treasures.”

“Exactly because Ethereal Stones are so rare, space magical artifacts are few and far between. They are unlike the Crystal Stones used for refining Storage Rings,” Qiao Sanfeng added.

“Do you know where I might obtain Ethereal Stones?” Feng Wuchen asked eagerly.

“I don’t know.” Gu Tongtian and the three elders all shook their heads.

“You don’t know?” Feng Wuchen was immediately disappointed, feeling as if he had fallen from heaven to earth.

Gu Tongtian said, “I’ve only heard of Ethereal Stones, never seen them, and never heard of any place where they can be found.”

“Master, you could ask President Bai; he’s an Artifact Refiner, more familiar with refining materials than we are,” Qiao Sanfeng suggested.

Feng Wuchen nodded and headed straight to the Artificer Guild.

“President Bai!” Feng Wuchen appeared urgently, looking anxious.

“Greetings, Lord Feng!” Yang Qianxiao, several elders, and the young master Yun Wuying all greeted respectfully.

“Lord Feng, what matter brings you such urgency?” Seeing Feng Wuchen rushing in, Bai Hun asked puzzled, thinking something major had happened.

“President Bai, do you know about Ethereal Stones?” Feng Wuchen asked directly.

“Ethereal Stones?” Bai Hun was surprised, then responded, “Indeed, I know of Ethereal Stones; Lord Feng needs Ethereal Stones?”

“Yes, President Bai, do you know where Ethereal Stones can be found?” Feng Wuchen asked.

“In the Heavenly Tomb.” Bai Hun replied.
