Chapter 528: Chapter 530: Seizing the Spirit
…
Deep into the night, the chilling moonlight cast a veil of white mist that softly shrouded the twinkling stars.
Under the ancient crescent moon that stretched across the vast sky, a magnificent and majestic waterfall of silver light poured down, its waters cascading endlessly into a void.
The silver cascade faintly outlined a shape reminiscent of the Sky Gate, ancient and mysterious, as golden purple divine halos rippled outwards, one after another. Even the moon above paled inparison, suggesting that this floating Dragon Gate above the Li Chuan Continent might indeed be the eternal Tianchen!
This was the World Dragon Gate!
In the beginning, only by looking up from the Li Chuan in could one glimpse the outline of this wondrous gate. Yet, at this depth of night, the World Dragon Gate stood as unique as the sun and the moon, and from any ce on the Li Chuan Continent with a clear view, one could catch sight of this mystical World Dragon Gate!
It was closer to thisnd than the sun, moon, and stars, yet it also felt untouchably distant, a sight that all beings could only look up to.
With the arrival of midnight, the divine halos that lingered around the World Dragon Gate gradually dissipated, and an uncolored, yet clearly visible spatial ripple suddenly swept across thend!!
Time Wave!!
It swept forth, surged, and moved visibly to the naked eye, like a transparent tsunami whose tidal lines rose high above the peaks. The immense and terrifying wave was unstoppable!!<div>
Mountains, forests, cities, fields—all were swept clean, without raising a speck of dust, nor carrying away any floating matter. People could clearly feel it like a cool wave swiftly passing through their bodies, so shocking and unbelievable. Yet, it shattered no objects, nor did it topple any thatched huts. The change it brought was solely the sudden and extraordinary growth in age and maturity of the spiritual vegetation!!
This was the secret of the eruption of spiritual energy.
The Time Wave bestowed the power of years upon all things!!
While it only altered nts, the evolutionary path of all beings depended upon treasures of heaven and earth, upon years and time!!N?v(el)B\\jnn
“Unbelievable, truly unbelievable…” Zhu Minng gazed towards the World Dragon Gate, his heart filled with a myriad of emotions.
Without witnessing this with his own eyes, how could he ever conceive of such a scene? Zhu Minng’s understanding of this world had gained anotheryer, and with it, an increased reverence.
“Each Time Wave brings greater impact and sweeps across a wider area. Before long, it’s likely that not just Li Chuan, but the entire Supreme Court Courtyard Continent will be affected by the World Dragon Gate,” Nan Lingsha said to Zhu Minng.
“It’s truly like the world is ascending and advancing!” Zhu Minng eximed.
Just now, Zhu Minng had personally experienced the power of the Time Wave.
Like a devastatingly vast tsunami, it brought forth visible ripples of space, hitting him in the face yet almost imperceptible, and then rapidly surging towards the world behind him…
Before him, an osmanthus forest stood, the trees not growing robust like some pines but instead, their bark glistening as if polished jade. Their leaves grew incredibly dense, with asional spirit leaves shimmering with a unique glow, absorbing the essence of the moonlight cascading from the night sky!
Hundreds and thousands of osmanthus trees, bathed unknowingly in the immacte moonlight veil, exuded a holy and mysterious aura, as if it was the mythical Moon Pce Osmanthus Forest straight out of legend!
Zhu Minng saw the changes in the osmanthus forest clearly, and his heart churned with excitement!!
If even such a small grove could receive such blessings, then a ce like the Nan Family Sacred Forest, which already possessed Silver Fir Holy Trees, would likely be a true Immortal Forest God Mansion overnight!!
Fortunately, he had left the Heavenly ughter Dragon to guard the Silver Fir Sacred Forest; otherwise, Zhu Minng really feared that someone with ulterior motives might steal his Ten Thousand Years Silver Fir Holy Dew!

“The Cultivation Fruit Tree should be ripe now,” said Nan Lingsha, ncing at the absolute ridge, her gaze fixed on theyer of tinum light emanating from the ridge!
“Mo Ye, Qing Zhuo, ck Fang, it’s time to get to work!” Zhu Minng was instantly invigorated, his eyes inexplicably shining with vitality, even though it was the time of night one should be sound asleep!
Perhaps influenced by Zhu Minng’s bandit-like behavior during the power struggle, the painter’s little auntie had long been preparing for this wave of time, yet alone she had trouble gathering the Spirit Objects that ripened in the Time Wave immediately.<div>
The perfect time for Zhu Minng to return!
No longer did they need to choose between the Cultivation Fruit Tree and Moon Dragon Valley.
They wanted them all!

Rain Pond
There was a pond in the ridge, with no tributaries flowing into it, only filling with water during the rainy seasons. It would slowly reveal itself and give birth to Rain Jade Spirit Stones when the surrounding stone walls werepletely soaked.
Originally, this was a ce frequented by elderly men who enjoyed fishing, as the pond’s rare fish, when sold to Dragon Trainers who consumed fish meat, could make them a fortune.
A couple of old men, wearing cloaks resistant to the cold frost and dew, lingered near the Rain Pond, but a group of people dressed in yellow robes appeared and ruthlessly drove them away from the surroundings of the pond.
“This mountain belongs to our vige, and this Rain Pond was discovered by us first. Didn’t your Young n Leader promise us that we could fish here at night?” an old man said indignantly.
“If you don’t scram, I’ll cut off all your tongues!” threatened a Yellow Robe martial master fiercely.
The old men were frightened and fled in haste, not daring to utter another word ofint.
“There are Spirit Stones in the rain! There are Spirit Stones in the rain!!”
Suddenly, someone in the Rain Pond shouted excitedly, and all the Yellow Robe warriors crowded near the pond, so eager they seemed to want to dive into the cold rainwater immediately to collect the rain jade blocks that could be used to build their cultivation tforms!
“Young n Leader, Young n Leader, there’s a demonic auraing from the mountain, heading this way!” another person yelled loudly.
“Master Yang, you take some men and wipe them out. They dare to vie with us for treasures; let them regret bing demons!”
“Young n Leader, there’s a dragon!!”
“What’s there to be afraid of about dragons? I’ll pull out all its teeth!”<div>
In the night sky, an Azure Dragon pped its wings, circling above the Rain Pond.
Its Dragon Breath spread, and those demons who had foolishly thought toe andpete were suddenly sensing the terrifying Dragon Breath and swiftly scattered like birds and beasts!
These Yellow Robe warriors, realizing the dragon in the sky was neither a Dragon General nor a Dragon Lord but a fearsome Dragon King, became immediately alert.
“Young n Leader, it’s an Azure Dragon King!” Several young martial masters were already trembling with fear. What’s happening in Li Chuan? Are Dragon Kings just wandering around everywhere? Why would such a high-caliber Green Saint Dragon appear near this secluded Rain Pond!
