Chapter 0804: Time Wheel’s Power

“Ah… . ” Shen Mengyan and Shui Wuchang exclaimed at the same time .  Refining a starland, was such a thing even possible?

Moreover, the Mysterious Yellow Starland wasn’t an ordinary-sized one, but a huge starland comparable to the Culmination Starland or even the Silent Bubble Starland . Besides, starlands of such sizes rarely formed and even then, developed only in unique locations .  Who could refine such starlands?

“How could someone refine the Mysterious Yellow Starland?” Shui Wuchang still couldn’t believe it .

Ning Cheng nodded, “I think I’m not mistaken about it . Although I’ve never personally refined a starland, these people are indeed refining the Mysterious Yellow Starland . ”

Not to mention about refining a starland, even when it came to refining a star or a planet, Ning Cheng had never met or heard of anyone who did such a thing . However, he had read that one could refine an ordinary planet into a True Spirit World .

Shen Mengyan took in a deep breath and asked, “Why are these people doing such a thing? The vast universe contains countless abandoned planets and even starlands . If they want to refine one, why don’t they choose an abandoned starland or planet?”

Ning Cheng didn’t have an answer to it, but Shui Wuchang replied, “I think I know why . I heard that only a starland with perfect earth veins as a foundation and well-defined laws of heaven and earth would have any value in refining . Even those uninhabited and broken planets, if they don’t have a good earth vein foundation, and lack complete laws, refining them wouldn’t be of any use . ”

“Huh… . ” Ning Cheng’s spiritual consciousness forced its way through the Star-protecting Grand Array and spoke in surprise . “Levelled Heart Heavenly Emperor and the others seem trapped in a huge array formation . It looks like they’re in a tough spot . ”

Ning Cheng didn’t see exactly Chuan Xinlou and the others . However, he could feel the waves of Starry Sky Essence Qi fluctuations, an indication of combat . To be able to trap Chuan Xinlou and the others, Ning Cheng could tell that it wasn’t an ordinary array formation .

“Let’s go down and have a look . ” Ning Cheng said to Shen Mengyan and Shui Wuchang before putting away the Starry Sky Wheel . Then, stepping through the void, they walked towards the Mysterious Yellow Starland .

Even when Ning Cheng and the two women stepped over the periphery of the Mysterious Yellow Starland, no one had shown up to stop them . Seeing this, both Shen Mengyan and Shui Wuchang felt something amiss, and Shen Mengyan spoke up with some concern . “Ning Cheng . You said Levelled Heart Heavenly Emperor’s group is trapped inside . Since we entered the Mysterious Yellow Starland, why did no one stop us?”

“Because they also want to trap the three of us . ” Ning Cheng smiled and kept throwing out some array flags .

When the three of them landed on the public square outside Mysterious Yellow Starland, bursts of roars erupted all around them, coming from the starry sky . In just a few breaths, the Ning Cheng’s group could no longer feel the starry sky outside the starland .

Instead, what appeared before the three of them was an endless black world . No, comparing it to a black world wasn’t right . Rather, it was an endless swarm of insects that permeated the entire starry sky around them .

These insects were pitch-black in colour and continually sprayed out a black-coloured water-like mist . The larger of the insects even spat out wind blades and fire .

Moreover, each insect also emitted a burst of pungent odour . Shen Mengyan and Shui Wuchang, although both in Heaven Seated Realm, still couldn’t help but feel nauseated . Even if they didn’t know anything about these insects, they understood that even touching this black mist would bring forth a disaster . It would be strange if this foul-smelling black liquid had beneficial properties .

These endless black insects were only one part of the attack; the other one was the spacial suppression that suppressed one’s cultivation . It would frustrate and fluster any cultivator trapped inside it .

This time, even without Ning Cheng’s reminder, Shen Mengyan and Shui Wuchang quickly noticed Chuan Xinlou and the others . The four Heavenly Emperors were in a bit of a mess . They had no choice but to bring out their weapons to protect themselves and constantly bombarded the black insects surrounding them .

The most notable out of the four was Chuan Xinlou . Every time his Burning Sky Eroding Sun Pagoda spat out its dao flame, countless insects would turn to ash . However, no matter how powerful his attack, he still couldn’t kill all of the insects . It’s not that he killed fewer insects, but the number of insects was just too huge .

With Chuan Xinlou’s cultivation, in any other place, his attacks could have quickly shattered a planet if it trapped him inside . But in this place, no matter how powerful his attacks, the array formation still managed to block it, preventing it from causing too much damage .

As long as the four of them couldn’t break apart this Trap Formation, the four would eventually die from exhaustion . Of course, Ning Cheng believed that these four people had their means of escape . It’s just that the situation hadn’t reached that point yet .

Moreover, Chuan Xinlou and the others couldn’t blast open the array formation in a short time . It’s not that their strength didn’t permit it, but because someone was actively controlling the array formation . The cultivator commanding the array formation not only commanded the insects but also suppressed the cultivation of Chuan Xinlou and others through this spacial array formation . Another reason was that among Chuan Xinlou’s four, there was no true master who walked the Dao of Arrays .

Not long after Ning Cheng’s trio entered the trap formation, endless black bugs swarmed towards them . Although Shui Wuchang and Shen Mengyan could block the attacks from these insects, they still turned pale . These insects were just too disgusting . Not just because of the smelly black liquid they oozed, but also because of their grotesque appearance .

These insects were just an eye with serrated appendages coming out of it . Pits and holes covered every inch of its ‘eye’ and filled with black filth . The larger of these insects were about half a foot in diameter while the smaller ones weren’t even the size of rice grains .

“I’ll start . ” Ning Cheng smiled when he saw Shui Wuchang and Sheng Mengyan wanting to bring out their weapons and do something .

“Just you?” Shen Mengyan and Shui Wuchang both looked at Ning Cheng in doubt .  With so many bugs, wouldn’t it require everyone to work together? Can one person kill them alone?

Ning Cheng didn’t answer . He raised his hand and condensed several Time Wheels before shooting them out . Pitting his Time Wheel against Chuan Xinlou’s Burning Sun Eroding Sky Pagoda, perhaps his Time Wheel wouldn’t occupy the upper hand .

But if he used the Time Wheel to kill these insects, then even ten Chuan Xinlou’s Burning Sky Eroding Sun Pagodas wouldn’t match up to it . Every time a tongue of flame erupted from Chuan Xinlou’s Burning Sky Eroding Sun Pagoda, it would kill countless insects . Although the surroundings would turn empty, the hole would quickly fill up with more insects in a flash .

But Ning Cheng’s Time Wheel worked differently . The Time Wheel was a Laws of Time-related spirit technique . Once cast, everything would turn to dust within Ning Cheng’s reach without consuming too much .

Only those who had entered the Time Wilderness and seen Time Wheels sweeping everything to nothingness would realise the power of Time Wheels .

Shui Wuchang and Shen Mengyan stared blankly at the grey-coloured light wheels that Ning Cheng had cast . Everything in front of the light wheels turned into nothingness without leaving the slightest trace .

Wherever the light wheels went, nothing remained of anything . None of those black insects could block its line of sight .

Ning Cheng waved both hands and cast out light wheels one after another, and in just a moment, the endless insects around them disappeared . The only thing left was the light wheels that kept moving forward .

In just a few breaths, the endless black space around them turned clear . Not to talk about insects, one couldn’t even see a single raised surface within this open space .

Chuan Xinlou and the others had already noticed Ning Cheng’s trio entering . However, they couldn’t pay too much attention to Ning Cheng’s actions . But when Ning Cheng’s Time Wheel came out and saw the endless insects turn into nothingness, they all couldn’t help but look at Ning Cheng in shock .

The four, however, quickly reacted, and rushed out of the black swarm to enter the place opened by Ning Cheng .

As soon as the four of them left the area surrounded by those insects, a Time Wheel swept past the location they had just stayed before . They could only watch as everything disappeared without a trace before this Time Wheel . The next moment, the open space around them stretched out . It felt as if as long as these insects existed, this light wheel would continue to move forward to hunt them down .

“What a powerful Laws of Time-related spirit technique . Before time, everything is illusory……” Chuan Xinlou looked at Ning Cheng’s Time Wheel and murmured to himself .

He knew that Ning Cheng had touched the edge of the Laws of Time, but frankly, he didn’t care much about it . After all, he wasn’t afraid of Ning Cheng’s Sunset’s Twilight . Even if Ning Cheng had used the Time Wheel in Returning Capital City, he wouldn’t have cared much about it .

Although this Time Wheel looked powerful, he felt confident that his Burning Sky Eroding Sun Pagoda could block it .

But it wasn’t until now did he understand the real strength of the Laws of Time . He could still defend against it, but it was probably because his realm was much higher than Ning Cheng .  But if one day, Ning Cheng’s cultivation realm caught up to him, when Ning Cheng’s understanding of the Laws of Time reached a higher level, what would he use to block the Laws of Time?

Maybe apart from the Laws of Time, nothing else could stop the Laws of Time .

“Sect Master Ning, you truly are strong . ” Zhangkang Tianji put away his weapon and was the first to approach Ning Cheng and praise him with a thumbs-up .

Qiao Jierui remained silent . He never talked about Ning Cheng’s previous visit to Returning Capital City . But he had started to regard Ning Cheng as a dead man in his heart . Qiao Jierui had decided that as long as he reached Dao Confirming Realm, the first person he would kill was Ning Cheng . He wouldn’t show the same patience as Chuan Xinlou .

But now, his heart turned cold .  How long has it been since then? At this time, Ning Cheng had become so strong that even he had to look up to him . Ning Cheng had not only chased down that red-haired man but also remained safe and sound without any apparent injuries . Moreover, since he could come here, it also meant that Ning Cheng managed to kill that red-haired man . Although he didn’t witness how Ning Cheng killed that red-haired man, he had seen the power of Ning Cheng’s Time Wheel today .

These insects were so powerful that he had to deal with them personally and with full concentration . He also had spirit techniques capable of mass destruction, but his spirit techniques couldn’t compare to Ning Cheng’s light wheels formed out of the Laws of Time .

After Chuan Xinlou and the others approached Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng no longer had any concerns . Ning Cheng immediately went on a rampage with his Time Wheels . The Time Wheels instantly turned into a series of Time Wheel-shadows and spread out . After a few breaths, the black space that covered the sky and sun disappeared without a trace .

Ning Cheng understood that he hadn’t exterminated all the black insects . Maybe these black bugs would continue to gush out endlessly, and he really could kill them all . But the black bugs had voluntarily disappeared from in front of him, which meant that someone had recalled them . Most likely, it should be the owner of these insects who understood that he could no longer use these black insects to deal with Ning Cheng .

A moment later, a man in a grey robe slowly emerged and appeared in front of everyone . This grey-robed man had no eyes . A layer of skin covered the place where his eyes should have been . It made any person who looked at this man feel creeped out and uncomfortable .

After this person appeared, the suppression of the surrounding space seemed to have loosened . Ning Cheng, as an Array Formation Master, immediately understood that this person in front of him had something to do with the space-locking grand array .

“You’re very strong . ” The grey-robed man faced Ning Cheng and spoke with a slow voice . He had no eyes, which meant that no one could see the look in his eyes .

Ning Cheng didn’t answer the grey-robed man’s words . He noticed that there was a bamboo cage behind this grey-robed man . Moreover, bursts of aura similar to those black-coloured insects kept erupting from this bamboo cage .

“If you think you could use your means to break through my Space-sealing Grand Array, then you’re wrong . ” The grey-robed man’s tone remained steady . “Even if I don’t use my black treasure[1], you still can’t get out of here . If you don’t believe me, you can try it out yourself . ”

[1] I’m not entirely sure if it’s the name of a treasure or the grade . I’ll wait till I have more context about it .
