Chapter 1373: Sublimation
A hundred years is really short for a Main God Warrior.
Sitting cross-legged in this cave dwelling, Jing Yan simultaneously comprehends five basic laws while deducing the timing for his harmonization.
Time slowly passed.
Ten years! Twenty years! Fifty years!
Eighty years...
The deadline of a hundred years is getting closer and closer. If Jing Yan cannot harmonize within a century, he will be directly transported out of the Land of Descent.
As the time approaches, Jing Yan also becomes somewhat impatient.
At first, Jing Yan tried using the Moro Time Tower to cultivate. But here, the Moro Time Tower cannot alter the order of the Time Law. In this Land of Descent, the Order Law forms its own system, even treasures like the Moro Time Tower cannot be activated.
The last five years...
The last three years...
"It seems Jing Yan cannot successfully harmonize!" Red Miao, resembling a youth, shook his head gently in the Great Hall, his eyes showing disappointment.
"To harmonize within a hundred years is too difficult for him." Jiu Huan glanced at Red Miao beside him: "After all, he is still very young. If given more time, he might succeed."
"The rules were personally set by the master. If he cannot meet the conditions, he cannot inherit the master's abilities," Red Miao said, glancing at Jiu Huan.
"Alas! Throughout countless years, there have been very few Martial Artists as excellent as Jing Yan. To wait for another one this outstanding, who knows how many years it would take," Suo Yiren sighed lightly.
The three of them, there in the Great Hall, used the Power of Laws to watch Jing Yan cultivating inside the cave dwelling.
"There's no other way. If he cannot meet the conditions, it only means he's not good enough, unable to reach the master's requirements," Red Miao sneered.
...
There is increasingly less time left for Jing Yan. Of a hundred years, less than a year remains.
In the cave dwelling, the cross-legged Jing Yan looked inside at his Divine Sea, gazing at his Divine Core and Divine Core Flower.
At this moment, there were still no signs of fusion between the Divine Core Flower and the Divine Core.
"No hope left!" Jing Yan sighed deeply in his heart.
"Could it be, a forced harmonization?" Jing Yan pondered.
Forced harmonization is more dangerous and has an even lower success rate—it is almost impossible to succeed. If forced harmonization fails, there is a ninety percent chance the martial artist will perish, even die instantly.
In the God Realm, it is generally Martial Artists near the end of their Life Span who attempt forced harmonization.
After all, if they don't try, they'll die anyway. Trying at least gives them a slim chance to survive. If successful, becoming a Divine Lord Great Power would greatly increase their Life Span, equivalent to gaining new life.
But Jing Yan is still young; he has many opportunities in the future. If he forces harmonization now, he might die here, with a death probability of more than ninety percent.
Jing Yan shook his head bitterly.
"Enough! Enough!"
"I was too persistent!"
"Even if I don't become a God Lord here, what does it matter? I've already gained much from this entry into the Land of Descent, achieved significant treasure. I've comprehended five Basic Law Domains, including the Ultimate Red Flame Domain. My Divine Sea has expanded by twofold."
"Even if I can't reach the God Lord Level here, I will certainly become a Divine Lord Great Power in the future. Unable to gain some abilities from the Ancient Heavenly Venerate inheritance is only because I lack that fortune. In this world, not all benefits should be monopolized by me!" Jing Yan quietly contemplated in his heart.
At this moment, Jing Yan's tense nerves gradually relaxed. He felt a significant lightness throughout his body. The obsession pressing on Jing Yan disappeared into smoke.
If he cannot become a God Lord here, what does it matter?
Unable to inherit abilities from the Ancient Heavenly Venerate, so what?
Jing Yan smiled, displaying a comfortable smile on his face.
His Divine Soul Body, at this moment, became unexpectedly lucid and insightful, seemingly purified, as if it was cleansed and elevated.
"Buzz!"
An unexpected movement occurred in the Divine Core Flower within the Divine Sea.
Threads of Law Power flowed out, rapidly intertwining among the five Divine Core Flowers.
At this very moment when Jing Yan let go, the Divine Core Flower began to fuse on its own!
This change was unexpected even to Jing Yan. He had previously been focused on making the Divine Core Flower fuse and seeking a harmonization opportunity but had no success. When he let go, completely relaxed, the Divine Core Flower began to fuse autonomously.
Just when all seemed lost, suddenly a new path appeared!
At this moment, Jing Yan felt this way.
Mysterious and profound aura began to swirl around Jing Yan's body.
In the Great Hall!
"Eh?"
"This is the fluctuation of harmonization power!"
"How can it be... Is Jing Yan about to forcefully harmonize?"
"No! He can't be that foolish, can he? He's not one of those aging, Life-Span-exhausted Nine Tripods Main God Warriors. If he's really forcing harmonization, then such behavior is truly idiotic!"
"Indeed, forced harmonization is almost impossible to succeed. The success rate is one in ten thousand. Moreover, forced harmonization causes greater damage to the Divine Core. If harmonization fails, more than ninety percent chance results in death and obliteration."
Suo Yiren, Jiu Huan, and the Guardian Spirit of the Land of Descent, Red Miao, frowned and conversed.
"It shouldn't be forced harmonization," Red Miao shook his head slightly.
"Just now, his expression seemed to have let go of his obsession. His gaze was very clear, he likely hasn't decided to force harmonization. So it's very possible that in this remaining little time, his state of mind underwent a change, his Divine Soul Body experienced deep-level sublimation," Red Miao nodded silently in analysis.
"Hopefully so. Such an outstanding Martial Artist is really rare. If the master were still around, he'd likely personally guide him!" Suo Yiren nodded in agreement.
"Now, let's see if he can successfully harmonize and become a God Lord Level warrior. If successful, he can obtain part of the master's abilities. By then, he will be formidable. In this Chaos, he can be considered a true powerhouse," Jiu Huan said.
"Yes! According to the warriors who've entered over the last few billion years, six hundred million years ago, the Human Territory suffered a massive blow. The Sky Demon Clan attempted to destroy the Human Territory. Although humans repelled the Heavenly Demon, the losses were enormous, and the territory was reduced to a tenth of its original. Nowadays, the cultivation environment in the Human Territory is no longer what it used to be. Martial Artists like Jing Yan are even harder to come by," Suo Yiren nodded.
Suo Yiren and the others have been in the Land of Descent for tens of billions of years. The great war of destruction six hundred million years ago is unknown to them, only heard about through warriors entering the Land of Descent over these few billion years.
