Lu Yin suddenly thought of something, and his eyes widened as he looked at the space.
Sure enough, the lines in this spacetime were three times tougher than the Primordial Space, which meant that this spacetime flowed three times faster than the Primordial Space. This was a parallel spacetime with a different time flow.
From start to finish, Elder Chan, Jiang Qingyue, and the others were confused.
Lu Yin had no intention of explaining, and he only told them what he needed to find.
"This spacetime flows three times faster, so I need to cultivate for a while. You can stay on the Caged Wyrm's back or cultivate freely in this spacetime," Lu Yin instructed. This was something they had discussed before they had left.
At this moment, Zhao Ran showed her usefulness, and she immediately brewed tea for Elder Chan.
Elder Chan was very pleased. He had been worried about the Fifth Mainland ever since the Cosmic Tree Realm had split apart and Lu Yin's rise. Today, he had only shown his face in the Above Heaven and acted as a hired thug. He had not done anything else, and he had only accompanied Lu Yin because of Lu Yin's invitation.
Just as he had made a grand wish when he had broken through to Progenitor Realm, he was willing to pave the way for Lu Yin and dedicate his life to him.
Jiang Qingyue left the Caged Wyrm and brought the dragon tortoise to roam this spacetime.
The monkey was also chased away by Lu Yin, and he either stayed on the Caged Wyrm's back or roamed around.
Lu Yin's goal was to be recognized by this spacetime, and he wanted to see this spacetime clearly. If it took too long to be recognized, then there was no need to do so. After all, three times the speed was too little.
A few days later, the group gathered on the Caged Wyrm's back again. Lu Yin held the compass and tore through the void to leave. There were no living beings in this spacetime, and it would take a long time to be recognized. Three seconds was not worth it, so Lu Yin continued to search for the next spacetime.
The same scene appeared again. The Caged Wyrm entered a spatial tear and then followed the needle to find the right direction. It was then dragged by the compass and followed the light through the void to arrive at a parallel spacetime with a different time flow.
This spacetime flowed twelve times faster, and Lu Yin estimated that it would take him at most five years to be recognized. It was worth it.
He stayed in this spacetime, and Jiang Qingyue could be considered to have officially stepped into the outer realm to begin her cultivation.
Five years later, Lu Yin returned to the Caged Wyrm's back. Jiang Qingyue had also returned, and she looked at Lu Yin curiously.
Lu Yin had not told them what to do with finding a parallel spacetime flow, and how to determine that he would stay here for five years.
"Your Highness, please have some tea."
Zhao Ran was very happy. Coming to a strange parallel universe, she could pick different flowers and develop different teas, which made her very happy.
Lu Yin looked at the magma-like tea flowing within the teacup in front of him. It seemed like Zhao Ran had broken through.
He took a sip. It was spicy in the mouth but sweet in the aftertaste. It was a strange combination of flavors that made him feel refreshed. "Comfortable."
Zhao Ran was elated. "Really?
I'll go pick some more red fruits. "
"What red fruit?" Lu Yin asked curiously.
Elder Chan smiled and said, "This is the name that Zhao Ran gave to a type of fruit. The tea that the Daoist Master drinks is mainly developed from this type of fruit. It's very delicious."
Lu Yin nodded, but he didn't pay much attention to the matter. He watched as the Ghost Monkey brought Zhao Ran to the planet to harvest the fruits.
Half a day later, Zhao Ran returned. Lu Yin held the compass in his hand and began the next parallel space-time.
…
After a year in the Primordial Space, Lu Yin received the recognition of a parallel universe with a different flow of time. This parallel universe had seventeen times the normal flow of time, which meant that they had been in this parallel universe for seventeen years.
Seventeen years had caused Zhao Ran to develop feelings for this parallel universe.
。
Jiang Qingyue was very familiar with this parallel universe. She knew where the delicious fruits and vegetables were, where the strange mountains were, where the most beautiful scenery was, and so on.
Lu Yin had obtained the recognition of this parallel universe by traveling through space. This was because there were no animals in this universe, only plants. He had touched every single one of them and seen every single one of them clearly.
This could be considered a sightseeing tour.
During this time, he had traveled with Jiang Qingyue for nearly three years. If not for the dragon turtle's arrival, Jiang Qingyue would not have left by herself.
Lu Yin felt rather awkward. This dragon turtle was too talkative, and it was even worse than the Ghost Monkey.
The monkey wanted to accompany Lu Yin to travel through the mountains and rivers, but Lu Yin found it annoying.
…
In the blink of an eye, three years had passed in the Primordial Space, while Lu Yin and the others had spent nearly a hundred years in a parallel universe with a different flow of time.
They had not encountered any danger during this time, and the only time they had encountered a beast was when Zhao Ran had encountered it. It had only been an Explorer realm beast, but it had been sent flying by a single slap from the Ghost Monkey.
After nearly a hundred years of peace, Lu Yin felt much more relaxed.
Elder Chan liked this kind of time. The calmer it was, the more comfortable it was.
Zhao Ran had invented more than twenty types of tea, and although they all looked strange, they were all very tasty.
If a person's entire life passed like this, it would be something that many people dreamed of.
"Young Master, it's been so long, but you haven't improved at all." Atop the Caged Wyrm's back, everyone was sipping tea as they looked at the distant waterfall.
Jiang Qingyue remained calm. "That's how cultivation is. Fighting all year round doesn't mean that I can improve."
Elder Chan agreed. "Increasing one's cultivation isn't just about one's battle prowess and realm. The cultivation of one's mental state is also very important. Relax once in a while, and you'll know the benefits when you break through to Progenitor Realm."
The dragon turtle waved its short tail. "I'm talking about the emotional aspect."
Elder Chan paused, coughed, and looked away.
Jiang Qingyue raised her brows. "I want to send you back to White Cloud City."
The dragon turtle immediately retracted its head. "It's been so many years, but you haven't improved at all. That Daolord Lu is also a blockhead. Sigh!"
"Who? Who's slandering Seventh Bro?
Come out, I want to fight you to the death. "The Ghost Monkey emerged from the shadow and stared at the dragon turtle as it cursed.
The dragon turtle rolled its eyes. "You're so noisy, stupid monkey."
"Stupid turtle, come out, I want to fight you to the death."
"I'll whip you to death with my tail."
"You have a tail?
Where is it?
Why don't I see it?
Aren't those horns? "
"Stupid monkey, you're asking for a beating."
"Stupid turtle, how dare you scold Seventh Bro? I'll make soup out of you."
"I don't object," Jiang Qingyue said.
The dragon turtle was sad. "Young Master, I'm doing this for your own good."
Lu Yin stared into the distance. Three years had passed in the Inception Space, but almost a hundred years had passed here. Time really could change things.
"Brother Lu, how long will this trip last?" Jiang Qingyue asked.
When she spoke, the dragon turtle and the Ghost Monkey stopped arguing.
Elder Chan also looked over.
Lu Yin said, "I don't know. Let's continue. It's unlikely that we'll be able to return anytime soon."
As he spoke, his heart skipped a beat. "What's wrong?"
Jiang Qingyue shook her head. "Nothing."
The Ghost Monkey came over. "Seventh Bro, I'm old."
"Stupid monkey, don't insult the Young Master." The dragon turtle jumped up.
The Ghost Monkey rolled its eyes. "Old?
Is there anything wrong with being a human? "
The dragon turtle was stunned for a moment, then shook its head vigorously. "That's right, I don't object. Young Master, you're old."
Jiang Qingyue's expression turned ugly. These two kept saying that she was old. As a cultivator, even if she was a thousand or ten thousand years old, it was still not considered old.
Lu Yin casually tossed the two creatures away. Only then did they calm down.
"Traveling through parallel universes can be dangerous. Jiang Chen should know that we're safe now, but that doesn't mean we'll be safe in the future. Especially since we're looking for parallel universes with different flow rates. It's said that these parallel universes are resources that the experts of the outer realms like to trade. If we continue searching, we'll definitely encounter powerful creatures from the outer realms."
Jiang Qingyue thought for a moment. "Father said that the Startoad likes parallel universes with different flow rates the most. If we encounter it, we won't even be able to escape."
Lu Yin laughed. "It's not that bad. Plus, the Startoad likes to do business. Without enough enticement, it won't do anything to us."
Jiang Qingyue smiled. "I'm actually hoping to encounter it."
Lu Yin smiled.
Old Zen sighed. When he was their age, he couldn't even encounter Ancestor realm experts, let alone a creature like the Startoad. At that time, the Starry Sky Tree had already split apart. The last expert he encountered was Lu Tianyi. Madman Lu didn't count.
Times have really changed. It's good to be young.
After nearly a hundred years, Lu Yin's Flowing Light could see the time in the past extended to 165 seconds. The more time he could see, the more he felt that Flowing Light's true purpose wasn't to look back. It had to have some other use.
However, there wasn't enough time. Lu Yin couldn't be sure. He needed to increase the time he could rewind.
…
The Hellwyrm landed and Lu Yin and the others arrived at a new parallel universe with different flow rates.
As soon as they arrived, Lu Yin and the others were shocked by the scene in front of them.
In front of them, continents were stacked on top of each other, forming a pagoda-like space.
From bottom to top, the continents became smaller and smaller. Since they were too far away, they could see clearly.
Lu Yin was surprised, as this was his first time seeing such a spacetime. There were no planets, only continents, and the continents were all stacked together. It looked like the lower, middle, and top realms of the Starry Sky Tree.
This spacetime wasn't very large, and Lu Yin could see through it with his Celestial Eye.
At the same time, he could clearly see the spatial lines in this spacetime. They were actually eighty times tougher than the Genesis Space.
Lu Yin's breathing quickened. Eighty times. This was a parallel universe with eighty times the flow of time. Outside of the Five Spirit Tribes, this was the first time he had encountered such a large flow of time.
He had found a treasure.
He looked at the seven continents, and his expression gradually sank. There were humans living in this spacetime.
In the past three years, Lu Yin hadn't found any humans living in any of the parallel universes he had visited. There were many parallel universes in the universe, and the probability of encountering one with humans wasn't high. Furthermore, Lu Yin had specifically chosen parallel universes with different flows of time, so the probability was even lower.
But now, he had encountered one.
However, the people in this spacetime didn't live well.
"Everyone, retract your auras. Shrink the Hellwyrm and land on the continent," Lu Yin ordered with an ugly expression.
Elder Chan knew that something in this spacetime had angered Lu Yin, and his expression turned solemn.
Jiang Qingyue looked into the distance. Although she didn't have the Celestial Eye and couldn't see that far, she had cultivated Shi, and the seven continents in the distance gave her a very bad feeling.
