Chapter 1173: Chapter 31: Supreme Treasure (Request Subscription)_2

However, the Tomb Spirit did not wish for Lin Yuan to crush it himself.

The former was clearly the Xuan Emperor’s intention, while the latter was the Tomb Spirit’s own thought.

The Tomb Spirit also understood what crushing the Xuanhuang Bead meant.

But why did the Xuan Emperor leave this command?

Is it because he knew of the threat Lin Yuan faced from two unparalleled Great Saints?

Not to mention how the Xuan Emperor knew about events taking place over 30 million Cosmic Eras later.

Even if he did know, there was no need to act this way.

For a successor from who knows how many generations later, to completely give up his hope of breaking into the Thirteenth Layer, and have all traces of his existence erased?

It makes no sense at all.

Back when the Profound Xuanhuang line was destroyed, countless members and disciples of the Profound Xuanhuang line were hunted down, yet there was no sign of Xuanhuang breaking the time loop, so why do it 30 million Cosmic Eras later?

“Don’t overthink it, I chose to forcibly break the time loop, not for you, but for…”

The towering and mighty man’s gaze drifted as if reminded of something, “I don’t want to break the time loop.”

“Don’t want to break the time loop?”

Lin Yuan was stunned, could that really be the reason.

“Actually, the time loop that traps me isn’t hard to break; all I need to do is forget my sister-disciple.”

The towering and mighty man spoke with a distant look, “It’s just that, forget my sister-disciple? I don’t wish to; over 30 million Cosmic Eras, I’ve had my memories erased over and over within the time loop, yet I still don’t wish to.”

Lin Yuan listened but didn’t ask who the ’sister-disciple’ was.

“I forgot to introduce my sister-disciple to you.”

The towering and mighty man said: “I was born in a tribe, lost my parents at an early age, suffered greatly, almost starved to death many times; actually, starving to death wasn’t the scariest part, but being eaten as food.”

“Later, I left the tribe, wanting to find a way to survive in the outside world, but not only did I not find anything, I was captured by some evil cultivator who intended to use my essence and soul to refine a cultivation method.”

Lin Yuan looked at the towering and mighty man, following the murals on the tomb walls, the Xuan Emperor should have originated from some innate universe, born in low status, with harsh surroundings.

“Later… I met my sister-disciple, who was a disciple of the Qingxuan Sect; hearing of this evil cultivator’s actions, she planned to exterminate the demonic path and killed that evil cultivator, saving me.”

The towering and mighty man recalled: “I still remember the first words my sister-disciple said to me, ’Little beggar, don’t be afraid, that big demon is already dead, you’re alive now.’”

“I imagined, if my sister-disciple had come a little later, I might have died.” The towering and mighty man continued, “Later, she took me back to the Qingxuan Sect, and after testing, found my aptitude to be quite good, so I entered, becoming her junior brother.”

“My sister-disciple was truly kind; she didn’t mind my filth or smell, actively performed Marrow Cleansing on me, helped me transform, and taught me many things about cultivation.”

Lin Yuan listened.

“From then on, I vowed to repay my sister-disciple well, to prevent anyone from bullying her.”

“As I continued to cultivate, my aptitude and talent grew stronger, quickly becoming the strongest in the Qingxuan Sect, leading it to become the most powerful force in that universe.”

“Later, I also became Dao companions with my sister-disciple; that day was the happiest of my life.”

“Finally, I broke through the Twelve Tiers, and with my help, my sister-disciple also ascended to the Twelve Tiers; we endured the cosmic cataclysm together and entered the Chaos Void.”

As the towering and mighty man spoke, his tone turned cold, “Upon entering the Chaos Void, we encountered a dominator-class plunderer; I wasn’t a match for them, and my sister-disciple, to ensure my survival, didn’t hesitate to burn her soul, essence blood, and spirit, resulting in both her true form and avatars igniting, barely managing to hold off that plunderer.”

The towering and mighty man’s expression was one of forlorn loss: “Though I survived, my sister-disciple did not.”

“I inquired everywhere, discovering that Twelve Tier beings were free from the shackles of the river of time and could only be resurrected by becoming a Thirteenth Layer time being.”

“So I began pursuing becoming a time being; it’s laughable to say, at the time I was just at the peak of the Path Splitting Realm, not even at the Chaos Realm, yet I fancied myself capable of becoming a time being?”

The towering and mighty man suddenly laughed.

“However, after entering the Chaos Void, I found my physique and bloodline to be very unique; under the nurturing environment of the Chaos Void, they completely revealed their true potential, making me stronger and stronger, easily becoming a Domination Sovereign, Great Saint…”

“At the perfection of the Chaos Realm, I established the Profound Xuanhuang lineage and founded the Xuanhuang Kingdom, ruling over the territory, slaughtering all plunderers, partly to avenge my sister-disciple, but unfortunately, the plunderer we encountered back then was long dead…”

The towering and mighty man smiled softly, “Upon becoming an unparalleled Great Saint, I considered how to advance to the Thirteenth Layer, visiting many special beings of the Chaos Void at that time.”

“Those special beings said my Heart Demon was too heavy, that my sister-disciple influenced me too much, and that under such circumstances, the time loop I was trapped in would be extremely difficult to traverse.”

The towering and mighty man sneered, “But those special beings were born strong, standing loftily above, knowing nothing of my experiences. Without my sister-disciple, I’d have died long ago.”

“My sister-disciple was never my Heart Demon, but my sole reason to grow stronger.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

Many of the lofty spectacle beings had shallow emotions, utterly self-serving.

“Though I don’t consider my sister-disciple to be my Heart Demon, I understand her position in my heart; the time loop I may face in the attempt to break into the Thirteenth Layer will likely involve her.”

“Later, I accidentally entered an inter-dimensional gap and there obtained a supreme treasure; this treasure was difficult to suppress with my power alone, and could only be veiled using the power of the time loop.”

“At that time, my realm strength had already reached its peak, already having the invincible strength of a Great Saint; despite not being recognized by other unparalleled Great Saints, I didn’t want to wait any longer; with the help of that treasure, my chances of breaking the time loop were somewhat higher.”

“The longer the delay, should the matter of this treasure leak, other unparalleled Great Saints would undoubtedly seize it at any cost, and it might even attract the attention of genuine time beings.”

The towering and mighty man looked at Lin Yuan: “Before striking for the Thirteenth Layer, I left many arrangements, one of which was that Xuanhuang Pearl, containing a trace of the treasure’s aura, and should it be crushed, the leakage of the aura would resonate with the treasure’s body; and that treasure had been taken by me into the time loop world, any disturbance informed to me, serving as an anchor point to forcibly break the time loop.”

“At the time, I thought that if 30 million Cosmic Eras passed and I had not broken the time loop, there might be no possibility of advancing to the Thirteenth Layer, hence leaving the command for the Xuanhuang Pearl to be crushed after 30 million Cosmic Eras.”

“Moreover, crushing the Xuanhuang Pearl would only ’remind me’; whether or not to forcibly break the time loop would still depend on me.”

“I see.”

Lin Yuan realized, looking pensive.

“As for the time loop I experienced… to genuinely break through, one must completely forget the sister-disciple; isn’t it ironic, that my stepping into the Thirteenth Layer is to resurrect my sister-disciple, but now the precondition for stepping into the Thirteenth Layer is to forget her?”

“If I forget her, what is the point of my stepping into the Thirteenth Layer?”

“If I truly forget her, would I still be me?”

The towering and mighty man smirked: “In the time loop, countless times I had my memories erased and started again, but never chose to forget her, not until you crushed the Xuanhuang Pearl did I forcibly break free.”

Lin Yuan looked at the towering and mighty man, thoughts surging.

The information the Moyu Tower Master had provided him about the time loop stated that any who reached perfection at the Twelfth Layer experienced a time loop, was an unprecedented trial.

Yet the time loop experienced by Xuanhuang required him to forget his sister-disciple?

“In that time loop, without my sister-disciple, there really was no hope of breaking through, it was rather dull there, but now that I’m out, it’s much better.”

The towering and mighty man looked at Lin Yuan, raising his right hand, a misty glow emerged.

“Before my demise, this supreme treasure I obtained from the inter-dimensional gap, I gift it to you.”
