Han Xuanji's decisive action this time was partly because Lord Da Yi had made him unhappy, and partly to give some people in the Chaos a small shock.
Presumably, no one would dare to make things difficult for his Xuantian Dao Palace Disciples now.
At least before the great battle with the Demon Ancestor, no one would dare to be the first to stick their neck out.
Afterward, Lin Feng had a moment of realization and nodded, saying:
"Yes, Master. I also feel that I have hit a Bottleneck and need to go out for a walk."
He was still quite a distance from the Celestial Golden Immortal Realm. Relying solely on bitter cultivation, his progress could not be very fast. Lin Feng also knew in his heart that looking at the Xuantian Dao Palace, the one with the strongest Aptitude was naturally his Master, Han Xuanji, who was in a league of his own.
Below Han Xuanji was Yun Wuji, who was also in a league of his own. As for Su Ming, Jiang Hao, and the others, they weren't much different from each other. They possessed top-tier talent in the Immortal Realm, but compared to a true Prodigy, they were undoubtedly a tier below.
Han Xuanji thought for a moment and, instead of speaking in riddles, directly told Lin Feng a few things.
Back when he simulated Lin Feng, he knew that the other party actually had some connection with the Taishang Dao Venerable. Moreover, according to his original destiny, Lin Feng had become the Heavenly Emperor because he had the Taishang Dao Venerable as a backer, not entirely because of Han Xuanji.
Now, with Han Xuanji backing him, the position of Heavenly Emperor was secure.
However, the Opportunity of Creation Heaven could not be wasted.
Although he didn't explicitly state the Karma involved, Han Xuanji gave Lin Feng a coordinate—the location of Creation Heaven.
In an instant, Lin Feng filled in many blanks in his mind. He suddenly bowed deeply to Han Xuanji, his voice powerful and resonant:
"Lin Feng will not fail Master's high expectations. I will Breakthrough to the next Realm as soon as possible and fulfill my mission!"
Seeing Lin Feng's moved expression, Han Xuanji shook his head helplessly and thought to himself:
"Fine, let him misunderstand. As long as he can seize the Opportunity to Breakthrough his Realm and protect the Immortal Realm, this little misunderstanding doesn't matter."
This wasn't him giving special treatment or being partial. He was simply letting Lin Feng know in advance about the things he was supposed to obtain anyway.
Han Xuanji waved his hand, his tone indifferent. "Alright, go now. Be careful in all things. If you encounter a danger you cannot resolve, just call for help. Do not force yourself."
"Disciple obeys!"
Lin Feng bowed once more, his pace quickening with a heart full of joy.
At the same time, to avoid unnecessary attention, Han Xuanji concealed his aura and quickly returned to his Xuantian Hall.
It had to be said that after years of development, the Xuantian Dao Palace had gradually grown. It might not be considered very strong in the context of the entire Chaos, but in the Immortal Realm, even without counting Han Xuanji, it was a powerful force.
Furthermore, Han Xuanji believed that as long as these Disciples of the Xuantian Dao Palace were given time, they would eventually grow into great Cultivators who could hold up the heavens. They might even produce more than one Transcendence-level figure.
"However, waiting for these fellows to grow up is still too slow..."
Han Xuanji set aside these thoughts of nurturing others; relying on others was never as good as relying on oneself.
The time for the Demon Ancestor's attack on the Immortal Realm was not far off. Although this crisis wasn't considered massive, Han Xuanji felt he still needed to take it seriously.
After learning some information about the Immortal Ancestor from the Heavenly Emperor, he planned to rescue the Immortal Ancestor from the River of Time and Space.
"I'm looking forward to seeing the Demon Ancestor's expression when that time comes..."
Thinking of that scene, Han Xuanji almost laughed out loud. Returning his thoughts to the present, Han Xuanji closed his eyes. His consciousness instantly rose to a certain height, and in a flash, he found the entrance to the River of Time and Space.
This River of Time and Space was not the one that ran through the Immortal Realm. As the foundation of Chaos, it symbolized the flow of time, the dimensions of space, and the progression of history for the entire Chaos.
Compared to the River of Destiny, there were some differences between the two, but certain powers were similar.
The difference lay in the fact that the River of Destiny was composed of the Karma lines of countless living beings, allowing one to deduce the past, present, and future, but unable to change them.
The River of Time and Space, in a sense, truly allowed for things to be changed. However, the price of changing the time and space of Chaos was something even a Limitless Primordial Powerful Expert could not bear.
Han Xuanji arrived at the River of Time and Space.
He saw the River of Time and Space as vast and boundless, its waters rushing incessantly with faint light patterns. Every ripple contained endless fragments of time and space, interwoven with the Dao laws of past, present, and future. If an ordinary Primordial Chaos Expert stepped in, they would be shocked into Dao Heart instability by the power of the River of Time and Space if they weren't careful, or have their dao foundation torn apart by the ubiquitous power of time and space. Even a Celestial Golden Immortal Realm Powerful Expert could be hit by temporal turbulence and fall into a certain time-space domain, sinking for all eternity.
His reliance was nothing more than his cultivation, which was close to Limitless Primordial Perfection, his Transcendence-level mental state, and the great dao pagoda, a Chaos Supreme Treasure.
Even this River of Time and Space could not shake him in the slightest.
Han Xuanji's expression was calm, and his steps were steady. His mind transcended the River of Time and Space, unaffected by any temporal forces. Even while traversing through endless time and space, he remained as steady as Mount Tai.
"But then again, finding the Immortal Ancestor won't be easy."
Han Xuanji sighed inwardly.
If not for his Eternal Dao Heart, he might not be able to find him even after searching the River of Time and Space for billions of years.
"The Dao Ancestor probably tried before as well, but he failed..."
Just as Han Xuanji was pondering, an indifferent voice suddenly came from the depths of the River of Time and Space:
"Xuantian Dao Venerable? I didn't expect to meet you here."
Han Xuanji paused and looked up. He saw a figure dressed in white with an ancient and majestic face. His aura was vast and majestic—he was clearly also a Limitless Primordial Great Power.
[Shi Jin (Time-Space Dao Ancestor): Ninth level of Limitless Primordial, a Chaos Primal Fiendcelestial, controls the Great Dao of Time and Space. He considers himself the 'Master' of the River of Time and Space and has guided many existences within it. However, he also fears being surpassed by latecomers and thus desperately desires to become stronger. He learned of your existence from the Demon Ancestor and is extremely curious about how the Dao Ancestor achieved Transcendence. He is hesitating whether to become an enemy of the Immortal Realm and is extremely conceited.]
This person was none other than the Time-Space Dao Ancestor, a top-tier expert he had seen in the simulations and an existence that would become an enemy of the Immortal Realm in the future.
The System's information was quite detailed.
Han Xuanji understood. The Time-Space Dao Ancestor originally wielded the Great Dao of Time and Space and lived in seclusion within the Chaos River of Time and Space. It wasn't strange to encounter him, but meeting here today was definitely no accident.
Likely, the other party had sensed his aura and come specifically to test him.
"And you are?"
Han Xuanji feigned confusion, his eyes narrowing.
A flash of curiosity and greed crossed the Time-Space Dao Ancestor's eyes, and his tone carried a hint of testing:
"This seat is the Time-Space Dao Ancestor. I heard that you entered the Limitless Primordial at a young age and could even easily suppress Lord Da Yi. It has truly opened this old man's eyes."
"You flatter me, Fellow Daoist. You praise me too much."
Han Xuanji was neither humble nor arrogant, and he wasn't particularly polite either.
Seeing Han Xuanji like this, the Time-Space Dao Ancestor also narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Han Xuanji closely.
Could this boy not be afraid of me?
He, the Time-Space Dao Ancestor, was invincible on this River of Time and Space. Even if the Immortal Ancestor or the Demon Ancestor came, they would have to give way.
Where did this junior get such great confidence?
However, this Opportunity was too rare, and the Time-Space Dao Ancestor didn't want to miss such a good chance.
He could see that Han Xuanji seemed to have come in his true body; he was quite bold.
At this thought, the Time-Space Dao Ancestor slowly took a step forward, his pressure gradually rising:
"To tell you the truth, this seat has pursued the path of Transcendence for countless chaos epochs. As long as you tell this seat the secret of transcendence, this seat can join forces with you to resist the Demon Ancestor. What do you think?"
