2096 Peeking into the past!

The path of time was among the most wondrous amidst the various paths of the Great Way.

By taking control of time, one could take control of the world.

Compared with the spatial abilities grasped by Tribulation Transcenders, the power of time was much more mysterious and rare, to the point that most of the cultivators in the universe would not be able to come in contact with this kind of power throughout their entire lives.

An opportunity to come in contact with the great power of time when a cultivator was only at the Sixth or Seventh Stage Realm was like a heaven-sent gift. When exposed to the power of time, as long as one seized the opportunity, the spirit and soul of that cultivator could sublimate.

It was like a person who had always lived on the second or third floor getting taken to the top of a hundred-story building. Their view of the world would change.

The owner of the crystal room had met several geniuses from the Beast Realm in the past.

Before Song Shuhang’s batch, occasionally, there would be talented cultivators from the Beast Realm who would manage to pass through one trial after the other and arrive at this same crystal room.

Every time, when the owner of the crystal room offered this blue ball of energy infused with the power of time to those geniuses, they would show looks of shock on their faces.

The power of time was filled with wonders, and it was normal that people were moved by it.

However, the owner of the crystal room found the reaction of this little cultivator who had gone through a case of cultivation deviation to be rather strange.

He noticed it because the other party’s face was particularly easy to read.

He noticed that the little fellow daoist before him had a look of anticipation on his face when he heard the word “rejoice.”

And when he heard the phrase “you will come in contact with…,” his eyes shone even brighter.

But when he heard the most crucial part, “power of time,” the little fellow daoist was clearly taken aback.

Then, a disappointed look appeared on his face.

Is this little fellow daoist looking down on the power of time?

Or could it be that he has already come in contact with the power of time before, and perhaps even more than once?

The owner of the crystal room stretched out his hand. Then, after a short pause, he opted to paste the blue ball onto Shuhang’s face!

His actions should not be mistaken for that of a petty person.

The main reason he changed his mind was that he noticed the strange state Song Shuhang was in. His head was the only real part of his body.

Could it be that this little friend is a brain spirit? Or perhaps he’s from a special race like brain demons?

The owner of the crystal room was a knowledgeable man, so he would not be surprised if this was indeed the case.

Anyway, he raised his hand and pasted the energy ball containing the power of time onto Shuhang’s face.

For some reason, after doing this, the owner of the crystal room felt very refreshed.

Is it because I’m hitting someone’s face with a ball that I feel so refreshed?

The owner of the crystal room fell into deep thought.

Hmm, I’ll take note of this.

If there are other trial takers who enter this place, and the time comes for me to present them with the energy ball containing the power of time, I’ll try placing it against their face again.

Anyway, the effect of placing it against their face or against their chest is the same, unless the other party is some headless horseman.

The owner of the crystal room decided that it would use different methods to give the energy ball containing the power of time to the trial takers that reached him.

❄️❄️❄️

Song Shuhang’s face hurt.

The time ball had been heading toward his chest before it suddenly changed direction and headed for his face. He was caught off-guard, and his face was now burning with pain.

This fact proved that no matter how steely one’s skin was, it could not defend against the power of time.

The power of time is indeed terrifying.

After being hit in the face by the power of time, Song Shuhang once again felt as if he was ascending to the sky.

His entire figure—or to be more precise, his head—felt as if it had been unshackled.

His consciousness separated from the “present,” breaking free from the constraints of time.

However, instead of looking into the future, his consciousness peeked into the past!

His consciousness moved upstream.

During this process, he became more and more confused, and a wave of drowsiness attacked his mind.

Song Shuhang hastily tried to regain focus and keep his soul lucid.

It might be due to this not being his first time coming in contact with the power of time, or due to his secret appraisal technique having some connection with time, but during the process of peeping into the past, he did not faint and managed to remain awake.

He could clearly sense his consciousness, which was wrapped by the power of time.

During this process, he felt that his understanding of the secret appraisal technique was getting deeper and deeper.

“Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Wriggling in the long river of time has allowed me to increase my knowledge.” Song Shuhang nodded to himself.

“Boom!!!”

Finally, the blue basketball that had enveloped his head dissipated.

Song Shuhang’s consciousness had reached the destination.

However, he could feel that he was restricted in his current state, as he could neither move nor speak.

In addition, he could only see objects within 10 meters of his line of sight, beyond was a thick fog.

His body seemed to have no definite form. It seemed as if he were floating in the air like a ghost.

So there are restrictions, Song Shuhang thought to himself.

Although the energy ball from the owner of the crystal room was related to the path of time, it had huge restrictions. His consciousness could only be sent to a specific point in time in the past and a specific location.

Moreover, he could only watch like a bystander and was unable to affect the past.

Why does it feel so similar to my ‘entering the dreamland’ ability? This thought suddenly emerged in Song Shuhang’s mind.

While he was in thought, his body started to move involuntarily.

Finally, he arrived at a paradisiacal bamboo forest.

In the bamboo forest, dragons and phoenixes danced about, and various other mythical beasts were playing around happily.

Among the many divine beasts, the most striking were the two divine beasts that were by a well in the bamboo forest.

One was a dragon, and the other was an ape.

Between the dragon and the ape sat a muscular old man.

On the old man’s arms, there were patterns of dragons and apes. He sat cross-legged, with a giant blade lying flat atop his knees.

His style created a stark contrast with the rest of the paradisiacal bamboo forest.

After Song Shuhang approached, he saw seven beast cultivators sitting in the bamboo forest, all with serious expressions on their faces.

“Is everyone here?” The old man glanced at the seven beast cultivators, and then directly at where Song Shuhang was.

“Today, I’m going to teach you a body-tempering technique. It ranks third among the cultivation techniques that I have created in recent years,” the old man said. “Its name is the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯.”

Then, the old man began with his explanation.

He started with the foundational chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯, which was widely known even outside the Beast Realm.

Despite being the basis, it sounded very high-level when the old man explained it.

It was similar to when Cheng Lin narrated the ❮Daoist Canon❯.

Song Shuhang was fascinated by it.

He felt his understanding and comprehension of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ becoming deeper and deeper.

He was certain that after he left this place, the number of Holy Apes he had would increase once again!
