Chapter 1217: Chapter 1208: Gathering Storms in Time City
The Divine King Body’s grand wedding, the news spread like it had wings from the Holy Mountain.
In less than three days, it almost spread throughout the entire Daluo Heaven Realm. Everyone was surprised and kept discussing, "Mo Wangchen is going to hold a grand wedding?"
"Really? Isn’t it too sudden..."
"It’s already spread throughout the entire Daluo Heaven Realm now, probably true. I heard all forces have set off for the Longevity Domain."
In a certain Sacred Land, an elder stood on a mountain top, gazing into the distance, somewhat excited on his face. "The Divine King Body controls the Sealing God Tablet. I was still thinking about how to build a good relationship with him. Now that he is holding a grand wedding, I must present a generous gift."
The same thing is happening not just within this sect but across various places in the Daluo Heaven Realm, many old-generation powerhouses were all stirred.
They are strong in the Demigod Realm, yet without a Divine Status in them, unable to prove themselves as Quasi-gods.
The Investiture of the Gods appeared, now in Mo Wangchen’s hand. In a few years, the Divine Road will thoroughly open, and whether they can obtain a Divine Status depends entirely on Mo Wangchen’s will.
At this moment, Mo Wangchen is holding a grand wedding. Those forces still worried about how to build a good relationship with him can use this wedding to present a generous gift, not hoping for deep friendship, but at least to win some favor from him, which will be greatly beneficial for the future.
As time passes, the news of the grand wedding spreads rapidly. In less than half a month, almost half of the powerful cultivators from the world’s six alliances arrived in the Longevity Domain.
But aside from Mo Wangchen’s friends, not everything can be preemptively let into the Holy Mountain.
Nine hundred years ago, within the Longevity Domain, a hundred miles outside the foot of the Holy Mountain, there was an ancient city for cultivators, Time City!
The origin of Time City relates to Lin Feng. It was rumored he passed through the devastation of the previous Era in the Time Cave.
Because of this, Time Cave became the most mysterious Life Forbidden Zone in the world.
For nine hundred years, the cultivators from each alliance have explored that area frequently, and Time City has become a stopping point for each visitor.
After nine hundred years of development, Time City can be considered a first-rate ancient city in the entire Daluo Heaven Realm. Its scale is not much inferior to the Emperor Cities of various alliances. Many forces built their industries in Time City, and today’s Time City is bustling and lively.
Now, when Mo Wangchen is holding the grand wedding, all visitors from each alliance are gathered in Time City, waiting for the official arrival of the wedding ceremony.
The Human Clan’s All Holy Lands and Ancient Martial family clans brought countless strong cultivators. It was heard that even the rare Saint Master might came with no less than dozens of people.
Not only the Human Clan, but the Ancient Clan also naturally has strong representatives appearing. Regardless of neutrality or animosity towards the Human Clan, numerous Demigod Realm cultivators came, but so far, there’s no news of any Ancient King-level figures appearing.
Ancient Kings are supreme existences of the era, naturally won’t appear early like others.
"Indeed, many experts have come, just reaching the Demigod Realm, there are probably no less than a hundred people in Time City right now?"
"Unbelievable to think about, nine hundred years ago, how many Demigods were there? Even combined throughout the Daluo Heaven Realm, couldn’t be more than ten to twenty people. Who would have thought it would develop to such prosperity now?"
"The Human and Ancient tribes, regardless of older generation masters or young generation geniuses, nearly all appeared in the past half month. Oddly, it seems no real conflict has arisen between them?"
"Of course, the Investiture of the Gods appears, and Mo Wangchen has stated, whoever incites disputes between the two tribes will not receive a Divine Status in the future. Without a Divine Status, is no hope of Becoming God. Who dares to make the first move now?"
In Time City, the winds of fortune converge, many people talking.
If ordinarily, if an ancient city gathers so many masters, peace would be impossible.
As time moves on, the wedding ceremony approaches ever closer, and more people arrive in Time City.
Older generation cultivators certainly can be patient, but the arrogant ones of the young generation gradually find it hard to contain themselves.
Geniuses are all proud, disputing against each other, especially between the Human and Ancient tribes, which had friction from ancient times to the present. Now, with so many geniuses from both tribes gathered in the city, it’s enemies meeting and red in the eyes.
This time, these proud ones have frequently clashed, yet only verbally, without actual confrontation. No one dares to set a precedent.
Meanwhile, in a certain mountain range ten thousand miles away from Time City...
Here ancient trees towered, flowers and grasses were flourishing, full of vibrant life.
But deeper in, it becomes apparent that in the very center of the mountain range, within a certain area, there’s no vegetation, shrouded in a dead atmosphere. The earth looks desolate, presenting an ancient and dilapidated appearance.
In the very center of this area, there’s a cave entrance, and the deathly atmosphere permeating here spreads out from this entrance.
Time Cave!
This is the only Life Forbidden Zone in the Longevity Domain and the most mysterious one in the Daluo Heaven Realm.
At this moment, not far from the Time Cave, there are a dozen figures slowly approaching.
They are cultivators of decent strength, led by an elder with white hair and beard, whose cultivation reached the Demigod Realm.
The elder is the only one among them who stepped into the Demigod Realm.
"It’s said that within one hundred miles of Time Cave, it’s barren and deserted. No vegetation grows, nor birds and beasts appear. The only thing here is boundless dead silence. Now it seems, indeed it’s true."
"This deathly atmosphere can devour life years. Staying here even for a second leads to months of life loss. No wonder even Monster Beasts are reluctant to step in."
Some in the group discussed, their eyes all staring at the Time Cave entrance not far ahead.
"Inside the Time Cave, the deathly atmosphere is countless times denser than outside. Previously, an Ancient Clan mighty one ventured in to explore. It’s rumored within the cave, in one breath, nearly ten years of life are lost. That Ancient Clan mighty one stayed inside for an hour, losing tens of thousands of years of lifespan."
"I’ve heard something about this too. It’s said that mighty one kept moving along the cave entrance, but the Time Cave seemed bottomless, nowhere near an end, wasting tens of thousands of years of life in vain."
"It’s said, if reaching the deepest part of the Time Cave, there time and lifespan both stop passing. The teacher on the Holy Mountain might have survived the Era’s devastation in that deepest location, right?"
The crowd continued discussing, eventually arriving at the front of the Time Cave. Looking ahead, it was pitch black inside; nothing could be seen clearly.
