"I didn't expect this cave to have something like this. What a great opportunity!"

Ye Hongtian's eyes shined as he stared at the cave in front of him.

This cave looked no different from the other 80 caves, but if people like Ye Hongtian who had opened up their Sea of Consciousness looked at this place, it would be different.

The cave's walls were extremely corroded. Although the other eighty cave's walls were also damaged, it was not as bad as this cave's one.

If Ye Hongtian probed with his soul force, he would discover that the mountain wall was rotting at a speed that couldn't be seen with the naked eye.

This phenomenon was not present in the other eighty caves. Although one of the caves had the same change as the cave itself, it was clear that the reason the cave wall had rotted was not due to the poison gas.

The most important thing was that after Ye Hongtian's soul force entered the cave, it would dissipate at a terrifying speed. Although his soul force couldn't leave his body for too long, it shouldn't dissipate so quickly.

Thus, he was immediately certain that the things in this cave must have something to do with what he was currently thinking.

And what he was thinking right now was …

Time!

After Ye Hongtian confirmed his guess, he greeted Wang Mohen and then walked towards the cave that was related to the time.

Arriving at the cave entrance, a strange aura emanated from within.

Ye Hongtian controlled the tens of thousands of trees in his body to absorb this aura.

While he was absorbing, the aura around Ye Hongtian's body kept changing. One moment his qi and blood was very strong, like a strong man in his prime. Then the next moment, his aura was faintly discernible, like a dying old man.

Wang Mohen was sitting in the middle of the secret realm and felt the change in Ye Hongtian's aura. He was shocked and just as he was about to go wake Ye Hongtian up, he found that Ye Hongtian seemed to be enjoying himself. He immediately understood that Ye Hongtian must have entered a state of enlightenment.

After observing Ye Hongtian for a while, he realized that although his breath kept changing, there was no real harm done. He was relieved and slowly stood up to walk into the cave.

Ye Hongtian took half an incense stick of time to absorb the time. After this half an incense stick of time, Ye Hongtian had a basic understanding of the time domain.

Ye Hongtian licked his lips and shook his head in pity. The most ordinary time energy was already useless to him. He needed to experience an even stronger baptism of the Time Laws to be able to further improve his Concept of Time.

Thinking about this, Ye Hongtian looked up at the time in the cave, lifted his left foot and moved it in the air, his face was full of hesitation.

The Time Laws was one of the most difficult Laws to comprehend in this world. Compared to the Eternal Law, it was also known as the Three Great Supreme Laws.

Because Ye Hongtian absorbed the time aura, he understood the power of the Time Laws.

He was afraid that he would be trapped in time and lose himself in the cave. He even considered giving up on this time and chose another cave. That way, it would be much safer.

After hesitating for a long time, Ye Hongtian clenched his teeth and lifted his left leg. With a step forward, he disappeared into the cave.

After Ye Hongtian entered the cave, an old man appeared where Ye Hongtian was originally standing. He just stood there motionlessly and after ten breaths of time, he spat out a mouthful of blood and returned to the center of the secret realm to meditate.

The old man looked at the time cave with a complicated expression. This old man was the person who had sent Ye Hongtian into the secret realm, Zhong Shao Chen. He had already discovered this secret realm for many years, so he naturally knew which cave was the corresponding opportunity.

This time when he saw Ye Hongtian step into this time cave, he thought that the Time Laws had weakened, so he came to the time cave to take a look.

But when he stood at the cave entrance and felt the time aura, he realized that the Time Laws hadn't weakened but had become stronger due to Ye Hongtian entering the cave.

After resting for an incense stick of time, he spat out another mouthful of blood onto the ground. The ground that was splashed with blood instantly began to decompose. In just a few blinks of an eye, his cultivation method was turned into dust.

"The Time Laws haven't weakened yet, how did that brat Ye Hongtian get in? Just look at how he was standing at the entrance without moving, could it be that he touched the threshold of the Time Concept at the entrance?"

The surprised expression on Zhong Shaochen's face wasn't concealed in the slightest, and was completely revealed. He gulped down a mouthful of saliva and shook his head with a bitter smile.

"If that's really the case, then Ye Hongtian's talent is really heaven defying."

He stared at the time when the cave entrance opened. It was unknown what he was thinking. After a sigh, he disappeared from the secret realm.

Time Cave

Ye Hongtian slowly touched the walls of the cave. At this time, he had already spent an incense stick's time in the cave. There was not a single ray of light in the cave, so he could only slowly feel the walls of the cave.

He tried to get a torch out, but just as he took the stick out from his Cosmic Bag, the Time Laws instantly corroded the stick and turned it into dust.

Ye Hongtian had already touched upon the threshold of the Concept of Time, but this wooden stick couldn't comprehend it. He was about to rely on his own understanding of the Time Laws to walk freely in the Time Cave, but he still didn't have the ability to make things around him immune to the laws of time.

Just when Ye Hongtian was about to give up and return to the cave, the feeling of the cave wall in his hand suddenly changed. Just when Ye Hongtian was about to give up the cave wall in time to go back, the feeling of the cave wall suddenly changed.

This absorption lasted for several days. Ye Hongtian suddenly stood up, his face was covered by a veil. It was hard to tell if he was young or old. The Time Laws around him could no longer harm him.

Ye Hongtian took out another torch from his Cosmic Bag. This time, the torch was not corroded like before, but it was lit up normally.

Initiating the Concept of Time!

Ye Hongtian looked at the torch in his hand and smiled with satisfaction. These few days of comprehension had allowed him to successfully enter the Concept of Time.

Lifting the torch, Ye Hongtian once again began his exploration journey. Even after getting the torch, the surrounding light was still very dark. The torch's light could only illuminate about 10 feet away from Ye Hongtian.

With this light, Ye Hongtian could finally see his surroundings.

He discovered that the walls of the cave had already been turned into a brick, and what he was stepping on were actually skeletons.

"There are powerful Time Laws everywhere in this cave. Ordinary skeletons have long been turned to ashes. These skeletons are actually left intact here. Just how strong are these people? They can still be left with corpses for so long."
