Free Web NovelChapter 294: Chapter 175: [Ancient Time Holy Crown]
"If we were still following the old rules of the Dark Realm,"
"and we found someone nearby having a breakthrough who wasn’t one of our own, we would most likely have gone over and killed them."
"But now, the Calamity Court Divine Kingdom controls all the Dark Demon Trees in the area. Times have changed."
the Blood Wizard, Yulier, remarked with a sigh.
Zorn, who was beside her, silently observed the newly born Holy Crown aura.
Within the territory of a Divine Kingdom, you couldn’t just kill people at will.
He waited until the Holy Crown aura subsided.
Only then did Zorn turn to look at Bai Esi, who was standing to the side.
"Let’s go."
Bai Esi hurriedly opened a passage through the Dark Demon Tree.
The Blood Wizard, Yulier, watched respectfully as Zorn departed.
After arriving at the White Calamity Demon City,
Bai Esi quickly brought the items to Zorn.
He took the Extraordinary Storage Bracelet and inspected it carefully, confirming that the seal within had not been tampered with.
Only then did Zorn nod slightly and give his instructions.
"I am going to attempt a breakthrough."
"Unless it is a matter of absolute urgency, do not disturb me."
"Yes!"
Bai Esi replied respectfully.
Over the past few years, Bai Esi had also made astonishing progress. She had vaguely touched upon the opportunity to break through and advance to Level 18.
In addition, Zorn had truly protected her Demon City.
So now, she was naturally content to serve Zorn.
The resources His Highness Zorn had her transport this time seemed quite valuable, but she carried out her task faithfully, not daring to have any other thoughts.
’Helping His Highness Zorn is part of my value now.’
...
Inside his Steam Magical Castle.
’Everyone else has already broken through. It’s my turn now.’
Zorn thought to himself.
After five years of training,
although he hadn’t touched the resources given by the Divine Kingdom,
the many resources from Bai Esi and Yulier, plus those Zorn had obtained from burning Dark Demon Trees, were now basically all used up.
This was what had allowed Zorn to achieve such a significant improvement.
This time,
the resources Zorn had Bai Esi deliver were precisely the final portion of the resources he had selected from the Divine Kingdom. With the arrival of this batch,
once he absorbed them all,
it would be enough for Zorn to advance to the Holy Crown level.
Carrying this batch of resources, he passed through the Divine Kingdom Gate and arrived in the Calamity Divine Kingdom.
Beneath the Tree of Calamity Magic Ring,
an Ancient Time Altar constructed from Time Obsidian
sat quietly.
Zorn took a deep breath and slowly walked toward the newly built Ancient Time Altar, a structure whose secrets were known only to Players.
As he drew closer, Zorn felt as if he were passing through a torrent of time.
While walking, Zorn contemplated his Player Sequence advancement plan.
Compared to the path Transcendents took to find their own Holy Crown Sequence,
Players possessed their own path: Altar Promotion.
By constructing a special Altar known only to Players, they could directly contact the Ancient Time Dragon.
This allowed them to build their very own Time Dragon Sequence.
This would allow Players to directly touch the most ancient of the Era Era.
The difficulty of this path was extremely high.
Among Players, only the most elite, hardcore veterans were qualified to even attempt it.
Although the difficulty was high, its potential was equally astonishing.
And this was why Zorn had chosen this special Time Dragon Sequence.
The core material for this Ancient Time Dragon Altar
was a fragment of the Ancient Time Dragon’s Scale Armor.
Its value was a full 92 million Star Trace Coins.
His quota for selecting treasures from the Divine Kingdom was only 80 million Star Trace Coins.
Zorn had to put in an extra 12 million and even asked Lord Ossirion to pull some strings.
Only then was he finally able to obtain the expensive Ancient Time Dragon Scale Armor Fragment. frёewebnoѵēl.com
If it had been a complete piece, even 500 million Star Trace Coins might not have been enough to acquire it.
Besides the core material,
the other auxiliary materials—
such as those for constructing the Ancient Time Altar and other miscellaneous components—
cost Zorn another twenty million-plus Star Trace Coins.
All in all, this Star Trace Altar, with a total investment of roughly 110 million, would bring Zorn a brand new Ancient Time Holy Crown that did not belong to this current era.
However, Zorn wasn’t entirely sure if it would succeed.
After all, although he possessed the Player Sequence, he was not currently a Player.
But it was worth a try.
Even if he couldn’t follow the Player Sequence, he could still take his special Time Sequence.
These precious resources would not be wasted.
He continued forward.
When he reached the Ancient Time Altar,
time outside seemed to have paused.
It was just like...
back when he was a Player, how the World would freeze when he hit the pause button!
Even though he had come to the Altar many times,
every time he saw the nearly-paused World outside, Zorn was still struck by how incredible the Ancient Time Altar was.
Zorn paid no mind to the situation outside and began to continuously feed this latest batch of resources into the Altar.
With the last of the resources invested,
the shattered Scale Armor of the Ancient Time Dragon slowly began to dissolve.
This scene made Zorn a little nervous.
’Success or failure, it all comes down to this.’
Taking a deep breath, Zorn quickly began to chant the secret advancement Spell in the Cosmic Ancient God Language, unique to Players.
"O supreme, eternal, and immortal Dragon of Time!"
"I am your follower. I perceive your existence. I praise your greatness."
"From above the torrent of time, you watch over the flowing veins of the entire era."
"I serve you, and I walk with you!"
"..."
As Zorn chanted, the molten Time Scale Armor began to gather above his head.
Faintly, a Holy Crown exuding the aura of ancient times flickered in and out of existence.
In a way,
the advancement words of Players were quite offensive to the great, eternal, and immortal Dragon of Time.
But that’s just what it meant to be a Player.
When Players hit the pause button, even the river of time itself would stop for them.
As the secret prayer flowed,
Zorn vaguely felt an ancient power of time peering at him, then descending.
TCH-TCH-TCH...
The Ancient Time Holy Crown above Zorn’s head fluctuated unceasingly.
But overall, the silhouette of the Holy Crown was taking shape.
Sensing this, Zorn’s heart stirred.
He had found that familiar feeling, that familiar aura.
The ancient, eternal, and immortal Dragon of Time had responded to him.
It was vague and faint, as if barely there at all, ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
but it was, without a doubt, the response of the eternal and immortal Dragon of Time.
He was all too familiar with it.
As long as the eternal and immortal Dragon of Time responded, it meant this path was viable.
Suppressing the joyous surprise in his heart,
he began to chant the ancient Spell before the Altar, over and over again.
He continuously gathered the response of the eternal and immortal Dragon of Time,
forging his own unique Ancient Time Holy Crown.
