The Sundial life lantern that had replaced the large black umbrella and appeared in the life fog was shining brightly.
Although the disc was jade, when the light flickered, it actually had a faint crystal texture, making it dazzle like a treasure.
The feeling it gave Xu Qing was that the material seemed to be a little similar to his purple crystal. It was as though this life lantern was an extension of the purple crystal.
This could be verified from the fact that the shadow was trembling intensely at this moment and the god's finger in the D132 Heavenly Palace seemed to be struggling in its sleep.
The purple crystal seemed to have undergone some changes with the appearance of the Sundial.
As for what the changes were, Xu Qing didn't know exactly.
However, he could clearly sense that the gnomon needle on the Sundial that was like a bone spike emitted fluctuations that came from the same source as him. This was what his bloodline had transformed into!
As for this gnomon, at first glance, it looked like a needle. However, there was a small carving at the tip.
If it was magnified many times, one could clearly see that it was an ordinary-looking purple chair.
Xu Qing's gaze froze.
As for the light floating around the gnomon, it was like the sun. As it slowly moved around the gnomon, it formed a shadow that landed on the jade disc.
On the intricate scale, they moved with incredible clarity.
Xu Qing's heart churned intensely.
He could faintly guess why the life lantern he had molded had such a shape.
All of this had a lot to do with the purple crystal.
"Is this a manifestation of the purple crystal fusing with my bloodline?"
"And the aura on it…"
Xu Qing muttered inwardly. As the needle shadow moved, his life lantern emitted an aura similar to the Bottle of Time.
This was time!
However, it wasn't the same as the time outside.
As it revolved, an immense power surged within, affecting the depths of Xu Qing's sea of consciousness, causing it to churn.
It influenced his physical body, making it tremble.
This also affected the outside world, causing the 10,000-foot-long vortex to isolate the surroundings under the rumbling rotation, forcefully synchronizing the time within this area with Xu Qing.
As a result, within and outside this 10,000 feet radius, it was as if two worlds had emerged, leading to disturbances and eruptions along the edges, warping everything.
This was the phenomenon emitted by the Wanggu Continent's laws colliding with the new life lantern's laws as they formed in this world. Different life lanterns produced different phenomena. This was recognition from the Wanggu Continent.
Very few people could recognize this scene. After all, since ancient times, very few people had seen this scene with their own eyes.
Within the 10,000 feet vortex, Xu Qing was currently sitting cross-legged, his entire body radiating a purple glow. A mysterious aura pervaded him, and his heart surged with waves of emotions that refused to settle, constantly undulating.
He looked at the Sundial that had gathered in his sea of consciousness. Regardless of whether this life lantern was formed from the fusion of the purple crystal and his bloodline, the feeling of coming from the same source from the Sundial allowed Xu Qing to clearly understand that this was his life lantern.
It was completely different from the feeling he had when he obtained the other life lanterns.
Even though the other life lanterns had fused into Xu Qing's body, at the end of the day, they had nothing to do with Xu Qing's bloodline. To Xu Qing, they were just dead things.
He could use them and borrow their strength, but in the end, he couldn't reach the heights of their true owners.
Therefore, to the cultivators of the Wanggu Continent, although the life lantern was good and a supreme treasure, it was only valuable to those below the Spirit Repository.
Once they reached the Spirit Repository, it would be useless. They even had to take it out from their body to reduce karma.
This was a shared understanding among all who cultivated life lanterns that were not their own.
However, from now on, it was different for Xu Qing.
This life lantern that was born from his bloodline could transform into a huge furnace when he was in his Spirit Repository, laying the same foundation as the ancient rulers.
Under the furnace, once Xu Qing entered the Spirit Repository, he could put all matter into the secret repository and refine them, making them his own and strengthening his secret repository. This opened that path of the strongest to him.
This was an incomparable advantage that only the descendants of the ancient sovereigns and rulers possessed.
Xu Qing had even gone further. He wasn't the descendant of the sovereigns and rulers who enjoyed the blessings. He had now become the person who founded the blessings. Hence, the life lantern still had too many mysteries that needed him to explore them one by one.
Right now, he could only sense that the power contained in his life lantern was related to time.
As for its might, he hadn't tried it yet. However, his subconscious perception allowed him to understand that his life lantern's combat strength was similar to the other life lanterns. It wasn't the kind of life lantern that instantly gave a monstrous power that could ignore cultivation and suppress everything.
Xu Qing felt some regret about this.
However, he also understood that that was unrealistic.
"The greatest difference between my own life lantern and the other life lanterns is alive and dead. To me, the other life lanterns are dead things. They don't have any potential to speak of and are only borrowed."
"However, my life lantern exists with my life. It possesses unlimited potential and can grow with me."
"As for the power of time on it, it should come from the purple crystal."
Xu Qing fell silent. As for the details, he knew that the environment he was in wasn't suitable for him to immerse himself in and ponder over. After all, the 10,000 feet vortex in the surroundings was too eye-catching.
Ling'er also quickly transmitted her voice.
"Brother Xu Qing, run quickly. The bad guys are here. There are so many bad guys!"
Ling'er's voice was filled with nervousness. Although Xu Qing's Heavenly Dao warning was also intense, it had been the same these few days. There weren't many changes now. This was enough to show that Ling'er's perception was even more accurate in this aspect.
