Chapter 2223: Fusing The Book Of Time (3)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

"Let's first fuse with the daos that nobody has fused with yet."

After some thought, Su Yu decided to go with this action plan. He intended to keep this power-up a secret for now. He would not push everyone forward so soon. Even after strengthening the daos with existing owners, he would seal the comprehension to prevent anyone from noticing anything.

Why was he doing this? Because a secret trump card was a good trump card. How could a trump card remain a trump card if it was known to all?

"Apologies, everyone."

With a chuckle, Su Yu shook the Book of Time open before tearing a page off. Then, he tossed the page toward one of the daos in his world.

The dao of tearing.

That was the racial ability of the iron-winged bird, also the first ability he had unlocked from the Book of Time. Furthermore, it was also the first ability he had cultivated into a technique from the book.

Instantly, the page sank into the dao. The dao transformed into an iron-winged bird before pouncing on the page. A lively iron-winged bird emerged from the page. With that, the two birds clashed.

With the support of Su Yu and its home-ground advantage, Su Yu's iron-winged bird was able to occupy the upper hand. In the blink of an eye, Time Sage's iron-winged bird was devoured.

Boom!

With a rumble, the dao of tearing grew massively.

The world expanded slightly.

It was a tiny expansion.

But this was only a singular dao. A growth granted by only one page. It might be a tiny growth, but growth in itself was very difficult to achieve for one at his current level. The Book of Time had helped him achieve more growth.

Strictly speaking, one could consider Su Yu a successor of Time Sage. Even his dao was pioneered by borrowing from the concepts of Time Sage's dao. Thus, there was a high compatibility between their daos. Most of Su Yu's dao comprehension originated from the Book of Time.

Page after page was torn.

Page after page was devoured by Su Yu's daos.

The world continued its expansion.

***

Inside the human lord's token.

Heavenly Overseer Marquis couldn't see or hear anything, but he could feel it. He could feel the growth of his fortune dao. His strength was growing as well.

This signified that Su Yu was growing.

How terrifying. One ought to know that Su Yu was no longer a weakling, yet he was still capable of growing so rapidly. In that case, how strong would he be at the end of his growth spurt? Time Sage's Book of Time was too beneficial for Su Yu.

One could consider this the final gift of the ancient past to Su Yu. After consuming the Book of Time, Su Yu would fully exhaust all his gains from the ancient past.

Su Yu kept the other expanded daos sealed, but the life and death daos were left alone.

***

At the same time.

Xing Yue, who was busy healing some people, suddenly felt her aura stirring. The powers of life and death started raging within her body. Under the shocked gazes of the people around her, she grew to a new level of strength. The powers of life and death continued stirring.

It looked as though she had suddenly comprehended something new while healing someone to instantly grow to the next level. How did that happen? The surrounding people were shocked. Was something like this really possible?

Not far away, Radiant King exclaimed with shock, "Xing Yue...you...you grew again?"

This had happened several times before.

More importantly, the flow of time here was actually slower than the outside world. It hadn't been that long since Su Yu's creation. In other words, Xing Yue had been growing repeatedly with short pauses in between.

Her previous growth spurts had been quite small, but this time, she had grown considerably in the blink of an eye. With the flow of time here, Xing Yue had essentially been growing slightly every hour or so before suddenly growing massively.

Originally, Xing Yue's strength was nothing special. According to Great Zhou King's classification, she could only be considered a tier-four Master of Law at the end of the ancient past. She was weaker than even Martial Emperor. But after her repeated growth, she had reached the third tier.

Of course, this was according to the standards of the ancient past. Snow King, who was the standard for the third tier during the ancient past, had long grown beyond that level. However, one should not forget that Xing Yue had been dead for many years. Thus, her rapid growth was very shocking for Radiant King and the others.

What was happening? Xing Yue herself was very surprised as well. The daos of life and death had grown, but that was not a result of her deepening comprehension. Rather, it was due to the growth of Su Yu's life and death daos.

Why?

What had Su Yu comprehended to grow so suddenly? Or did he stumble upon yet another fortuitous encounter?

"Wen Yu's cookbook?"

Suddenly, she thought of something. Was that it? She was unsure. But there was such a possibility.

The difficulty level of growing the life and death daos was quite high for Su Yu. But the comprehension of the two daos could probably be found in the cookbook. After all, the daos of the immortals and death spirits were included in the book.

Noticing all the gazes on her, Xing Yue said indifferently, "This is merely a regular comprehension. After spending so many years dead, it is only normal that my comprehension of life and death is deep. Healing all of you has also helped with my comprehension, allowing me to grow slightly."

"..."

Everyone gasped. Was this really a slight growth? She had taken a major step forward in the blink of an eye! Many of the Masters of Laws present were still stuck even after so many years.

Radiant King lamented, "Your growth is crazy. You could have surpassed me if you had grown like this in the past."

Back then, he was at the second tier. But after so many years, he had grown far stronger than before. Nevertheless, Xing Yue's growth was still abnormally fast. Also, what was up with her nonchalance? Why was she acting like it was no big deal?

That...was such a...cocky tone! But there was nothing they could do about it. Xing Yue didn't used to be like this! Back then, she was shy but sensible. How did she turn into someone who loved horsing around so much?

Shouldn't she be wild with joy from her massive growth? But instead, she was acting all nonchalant and indifferent. That was a lot more annoying than a direct expression of joy. Helpless, Radiant King decided to forget about the matter.

"This is a good thing. With increased strength, you'll be able to heal us better." Radiant King smiled, "Comprehend the dao well. It is only a matter of time before you surpass the farting guy in the other camp."

He was talking about the Immortal Pseudo Emperor.

With the same nonchalance, Xing Yue answered, "Of course."

"..."

Fuck!

Radiant King cursed inwardly. He was only saying that out of politeness. Why was the lass agreeing? She was getting way too cocky! But Xing Yue did not believe that she was being cocky. What was wrong with that? What was the problem?

Su Yu had completed his creation. And he had always been a quick grower. He had reached his current level in only a few years. It wouldn't take him much time to go even further. As the master of his life and death daos, she would naturally grow alongside him.

Furthermore, the flow of time here was much slower than the outside. Could Su Yu reach the level of her elder brother in one year? At that point, she would probably reach the level of the Immortal Pseudo Emperor. Thus, there was nothing wrong for her to see herself reaching that level soon.

That was why she had so seriously agreed to what Radiant King had said to be polite. In fact, she was praising Radiant King inwardly for his keen eyes. How did he know that she could surpass the Immortal Pseudo Emperor soon? Wait, his line had always been good at spotting talent. For example, his descendant, Great Ming King, was one of the earliest supporters of Su Yu.

Meanwhile, the surrounding powerhouses were grimacing. His Majesty's little sister...was so cocky. More importantly, she did not seem to realize that.

***

At the moment, Su Yu was feeling quite cocky as well.

As his world expanded and his aura grew, he roared with laughter, "Hundred Battle? Zhou Ji? If they dare turn against me, all shall die!"

These bastards had been making things difficult for him. He would give them a chance to do the right thing. He could only hope that they wouldn't waste the opportunity.

After fusing more than half of the Book of Time, Su Yu could clearly feel that he had grown significantly stronger. His aura was surging madly. Fortunately, he was inside the human lord's token, so most of his presence was still hidden. With his current strength, he felt like he could even challenge Hundred Battle King to a fight.

Originally, he judged that he was at the level of a weaker tier-four Master of Law when he was outside his world. Inside his world, he would be at the level of a stronger fourth tier, or perhaps someone near the third tier.

But now, he felt as though he was as strong as Hundred Battle King outside. Inside, he was probably strong enough to fight Martial Emperor in single combat. One ought to know that Martial Emperor was a proper peak third-tier powerhouse.

Su Yu grinned.

Book of Time.

What an amazing book.

His world was still expanding, but he didn't have much of the book left to fuse. After all, even the life and death pages had been fused. He started sealing some of the daos in his world, such as the fire dao of Heavenly Fire and the five elemental dao of Topsoil Spirit.

He sealed them all off. Otherwise, these people would probably grow massively from this as well. But it was still not the time for that to happen. Su Yu loved surprising people.

Done with sealing the daos, Su Yu started compressing his world. He had to suppress it to its original size so that nobody would notice his growth. Hehehe. With his strength hidden, he would be able to punch a powerhouse to death with a single hit, shocking all onlookers.

He would cause the jaws of the myriad races and Hundred Battle King to drop from shock. He would stun them all when one Master of Law after another walked out of his world.

Su Yu was in a great mood. He was finally converting the Book of Time into something truly his.

This was a book that had accompanied him since his childhood. It had helped him through countless dangers, and it was the core foundation of his rise. And now, it was becoming a part of Su Yu's world.

"I'm suddenly feeling melancholic."

He seemed rather hypocritical as he had a large grin on his face while he was saying that. Yes, he was feeling a tiny bit melancholic. But that sensation was fully overshadowed by the joy of rapid growth.
