Chapter 359 - The Ancestral Dragon Who Controls Time

“Xiao Xi, I should be fine if I inject my Qi into it, right?” he asked before doing it.

“Don’t worry. It’s just a shell,” Ling Xi responded.

With Ling Xi’s guarantee, Long Chen was emboldened. Ling Xi did not know about the dragon jade, so she did not care about the stone talisman. However, Long Chen did not think it was a simple item at all. He guided his Qi and slowly injected it into the stone talisman.

“Hmm?” To Long Chen’s shock, the stone talisman absorbed the Qi he injected, instead of it flowing out. “Xiao Xi!” Since it was an abnormal occurrence, he had to let Ling Xi explain. After he called for her, the black dragon image on the stone talisman shone with a black light. The light was very faint, and it flickered slowly like a small candle.

“Why is it doing that?” Ling Xi was surprised too. She leaned closer to the stone talisman and said with wide eyes, “Brother Chen, I don’t know why it’s like that either. How strange...”

“If you don’t know, then it must be very strange ...” Although it was glowing, nothing else was happening. Long Chen flipped it around a few times, but the black glow did not fade. That was when he suddenly felt a strong energy that made even his soul tremble.

What is this feeling ... Long Chen faintly sensed that a ripple had radiated from the stone talisman and spread across all directions. The ripple was invisible, but he had definitely felt it. In fact, he sensed that due to the stone talisman, him, Ling Xi, and Xiaolang nearby were being contained in a strange space.

After the creepy feeling appeared, Ling Xi gasped. “Brother Chen, look at the sun!” Long Chen looked up and was stunned. The sun, which was initially in the center of the sky, was setting in the west very quickly. In just a breath’s time, the sky had turned dark!

“What’s happening?!” Both Long Chen and Ling Xi were completely stunned. Before they knew how to react, the sky lit up once more just two breaths later! The sun rose quickly from the east and set in the west, so in two more breaths’ time, the sky was dark once again!

“What the hell? What’s happening?!” Long Chen’s thoughts were a mess. Whatever he was witnessing was just too shocking to him. Any normal person would be completely stunned by this scenario!

Long Chen saw that one long day had been compressed into four breaths, so one day had passed within this time. The sun flew like a shooting star, rising from the east and setting in the west. This length of time was only enough for Long Chen to utter one sentence!

“Xiao Xi, why is time passing so fast?!” Long Chen started to have difficulty breathing.

“Time didn’t speed up; our time slowed down in here! It’s countless times slower here!” Ling Xi said in a panic.

One whole day had passed during the course of this conversation! They were completely shaken by the circumstances.

“Let’s get out of here now!”

Long Chen had just uttered this sentence and descended from the boulder when time finally stopped flowing so rapidly. He did not know how much time had passed, but the sun was still directly above them in the sky as if nothing happened.

“Xiao Xi, was that just a dream?” Long Chen asked hoarsely, looking at the unmoving sun in the sky above.

“The agreed time was noon. It is noon right now, but Palace Lord, where is Long Chen?” The Third Demon Elder’s shrill voice rang through the air, filled with smugness.

This duel had become very famous in the Heavenly Demon Palace, to the extent that every person knew about it. That was why everyone of a certain status was present today. The space around the Martial Arena was densely packed with disciples. Almost everyone was here to watch the show.

Zhao Qingyun, the three Demon Elders, Pavilion Lords, Enforcers, and Elders all had their own seats, watching from high above. Only Yang Jun was standing in the arena, arms crossed as he gazed downwards regally. There was thick contempt and pride in his eyes.

It was time, but Long Chen was not here. What did that mean?

It meant that Long Chen had gotten cold feet.

Why had he gotten cold feet?

It meant he had bragged too much. Twenty days to cultivate Traceless Demon Shadow? It was a joke. A huge joke. Long Chen knew that he could not do it, so he did not want to show up and embarrass himself. In reality, many people had expected this to happen. No matter how talented Long Chen was, it was impossible for him to master it in twenty days.

After the Third Demon Elder’s very loud question, all eyes fell on Zhao Qingyun, waiting for his answer. Zhao Qingyun was initially filled with confidence in Long Chen, so he never went to look for him before this. Long Chen’s absence today was also out of his expectations.

“Why are you so impatient? Perhaps he has been delayed by something. Since everyone is already here, what’s the problem with waiting just a little longer?” Zhao Qingyun said mildly. To be honest, he did not have much confidence either, because he did not know if Long Chen would show up.

Many people had opinions about what he said.

“Is this a joke? How could so many of us wait for one person? Is he being stupid? Or is he just too afraid to show up?”

“Let’s not wait anymore. That cowardly tortoise has probably left Demon Emperor Mountain. He’s probably run off somewhere. Let’s go back! We’ll be waiting for nothing.”

Similar complaints rang across the crowd.

Next to Zhao Qingyun, Dongfang Xuanxiao and Xuanming were also sitting with deeply furrowed brows. Dongfang Xuanxiao looked around. He knew that if Long Chen did not come today, he would lose even more face than Zhao Qingyun.

“What’s the matter with Chen’er? He would never do something like this. Father-in-law, let me go search for him,” said Dongfang Xuanxiao.

“There’s no need. If he’s supposed to come, he will come.” Zhao Qingyun shook his head.

After the Third Demon Elder heard Zhao Qingyun, he mocked him, “’Will come?’ Who knows? We can wait, but not forever. I think we should call it off. He isn’t even here now; will he ever come?”
