The most important locks on the star-like Rune Sphere have been unlocked.
As if a chain reaction was triggered, the outermost layer of the Rune Sphere began to gradually peel off.
Transforming into a type of power that Xu Fan believed to be an unlocking force, it merged into his immortal soul.
Afterward, Xu Fan in the Xianhun Space regained his former state.
“Pu Tao, how much Crystal Xuanhuang Qi have I consumed?” Xu Fan asked.
“110,000 units of Crystal Xuanhuang Qi. Based on your current unlocking speed, Master, the Crystal Xuanhuang Qi you have left can only unlock one more layer.” Pu Tao’s voice echoed.
Xu Fan looked at the gigantic Rune Sphere, as big as a star, the outermost layer was transformed into a type of rune that he did not recognize.
“Damn, this system eventually turned into some sort of unlocking game.”
At this point, Xu Fan began to exhibit a hint of the aura of a Daluo Saint.
It’s as if he had set foot on the shore of the River of Time.“If I unlock another layer, I should be fully entering the Daluo Saint Realm.”
“But I still can’t see the end of these system runes…” Xu Fan commented in annoyance.
“Pu Tao, infuse me with Crystal Xuanhuang Qi, I am aiming to fully become a Daluo Saint before arriving at the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty.”
“As you command, Master.”
At this moment, in an unfamiliar star field.
The Heavenly North Saint’s rage engulfed the surrounding tens of light armors.
The space in this star field had already shattered and reassembled dozens of times.
“I can’t believe I was scared away by the future body of a Daluo Saint!”
“Even though that gaze was indeed terrifying, but it was merely captured from the future, it’s impossible for it to fully descend into the Three Thousand Realms.”
“No, the cause and effect have been established, I must deal with him before Xu Fan grows any further. Otherwise, I might have to eke out a living in the outer world.” The Heavenly North Saint’s eyes manifested an endless killing intent.
Fifteen years later, while strolling in the star field to the Hidden Spirit Island, a River of Time that seems to cover the entire Immortal World appeared out of the blue.
Standing in the River of Time was a towering giant whose height reached only to his waist.
The appearance of the giant was indescribable and it looked different to everyone depending on their Dao.
At this time, the giant in the River of Time started to slowly move.
The waters of the River of Time also started to become turbulent following his movements.
Wave after wave surged against the giant, like how the seawater beat against the reefs.
It seemed like an instantaneous, yet also eternal moment. Around the towering giant, it seemed like time no longer had any meaning.
As the giant gently lifted one foot, the entire River of Time started boiling like a pot of water.
The foot that was lifted seemed to be grabbed by countless invisible hands trying to drag it back into the River of Time.
However, all of this was in vain. The giant seemed to feel nothing, unaffected by the forces trying to pull his leg, and he stepped onto the shore of the River of Time.
Following that, the other foot moved as well.
At this moment, several shadows appeared from the waters of the River of Time.
The towering giant looked at the shadows formed by his own cause and effect.
Among those shadows, there were the Dragon Clan and the Golden Winged Ric Clan.
The last ones were the two Saints who had a grudge against Xu Fan.
These shadows clearly belonged to the Lord of Light and Time and the Heavenly North Saint who had had a recent conflict with Xu Fan.
Of the remaining shadows, some were familiar to Xu Fan while others were not.
They encircled the towering giant, using their own power of causality as a tether, trying to prevent him from stepping forward with his other foot.
At this moment, behind the majestic giant, two shadows appeared conspicuously.
One emitted the aura of Golden Immortal, showing no fear of the saintly shadows around him.
The other, just barely materialized into a faint silhouette, could just barely be recognized as Xu Fan.
Within the vague outline appeared a pair of eyes. With a simple sweep of his surroundings, he shattered the surrounding shadows.
The colossal giant easily set his other foot on the other bank.
Suddenly, within the long river of time, countless pairs of eyes appeared. They seemed to be looking at the giant, but also at the hidden power behind him.
The time river that could cover the entire Immortal World vanished. The magnificent giant froze mid-air, then slowly reduced in size and finally assumed the resemblance of Xu Fan.
“Finally promoted to Daluo Saint, it wasn’t easy,” sighed Xu Fan.
While he used the Xuan Huang Qi to decode the outer runes, a single mistake in the decryption set off a chain reaction.
As a result, the entire Rune sphere within his system began to slowly disintegrate. Initially, Xu Fan thought this was a good thing until a crack appeared on the Rune sphere.
A wave of intense fear gripped Xu Fan.
This fear was far more severe than the dreaded Five Declines of Heaven and Human he was aware of.
A mysterious power, alien from the Three Thousand Realms, wanted to shatter the Rune sphere to claim the core of the system.
Xu Fan could feel that if the system inside his body was truly taken away,
His existence might be corrected by the ‘Will of Heaven’ and the ‘River of Time’ of the three thousand realms.
So they would force him back onto his original path of destiny.
Hence, from a decipherer, he turned into a rescuer, as he injected all of his Xuan Huang Qi inside his body and began to repair the System Rune sphere.
While rescuing the System Rune sphere, a rare look of anxiety appeared on Xu Fan’s face.
This vast amount of Xuan Huang Qi pushed Xu Fan into an extremely peak state.
All of a sudden, the usually obscure and tough-to-understand runes on the system’s outer layer seemed exceptionally simple through Xu Fan’s eyes.
However, the deeper layers became increasingly complex.
Just as the Xuan Huang Qi was about to be completely drained,
Xu Fan finally managed to reconnect and repair a damaged rune.
Deeper cracks had started to heal slowly.
Post repairing the System Rune sphere, Xu Fan was somewhat exhilarated. He had unintentionally caught a glimpse of the system’s core during the rescue process.
Although it was a brief glimpse, Xu Fan felt the presence of the system’s origin.
Xu Fan felt that with this slight comprehension of the system’s origin, his ability to decipher the system runes would significantly accelerate.
Originally, Xu Fan was quite satisfied as he watched the Rune sphere recombine.
But as the process of Rune sphere recombination was about to complete, Xu Fan’s face darkened.
Because he found out that, damn it, the system had programmed a new patch.
The outer layer runes were now several times more complex than what he had originally seen.
“Does it have no conscience? Although we share our existence, I saved you after all. You can’t just not give me any benefits,” grumbled Xu Fan resentment-filledly, feeling as if his act of kindness was actually exploited.
As if hearing Xu Fan’s outcry, the outermost Rune sphere began to slowly shed its layer.
Suddenly, as if some kind of limit had been breached, Xu Fan felt he no longer controlled the River of Time before him.
Thus, he summoned the River of Time and stepped away from it, transforming into someone on the shore.
As Xu Fan felt the changes following his promotion to Daluo Saint, the laziness returned to his eyes.
“Pu Tao, how much Xuan Huang Qi is left in the protection shield?” According to Xu Fan’s feeling, there should be less than 10,000 Xuan Huang Qi left in the protection shield.
“250 crystals~”
