Chapter 521: Heavenly Sect's Divine-Level Technique, Massive Improvement

Amidst surging winds and clouds, the temple reappeared, and Zhao Xing calmly walked inside.

He first saw the solitary throne, as before, with a clock resting upon it.

This time, however, Zhao Xing could discern clear time markings.

A single hand on the double-layered dial slowly sharpened into focus, beginning its clockwise rotation from the mark of the 'Ninth Solar Year of the Fifteenth Era of Chaotic River'.

It spun rapidly, halting only when it reached the final solar year of the Barren Domain Era 2.

Zhao Xing meticulously replayed the entire process in his mind, pinpointing three key details.

First, while the thicker, clearer hand was turning, another faint, longer hand was also rotating clockwise at an even greater speed. His current cultivation level, however, made it difficult to perceive clearly.

Zhao Xing surmised that this represented the World-Star Year.

Second, as the first hand rotated clockwise, the counter-clockwise dial on the second layer also moved, albeit very subtly.

Third, the Solar Year hand paused distinctly three times during its rotation, deviating from its usual rhythm.

Zhao Xing clearly observed one such pause. Based on the functions of both hands, that particular stop indicated the 1999th Solar Year and 245th World-Star Year of the Blazeflame Era.

“The 1999th Solar Year of the Blazeflame Era represents the final era of the Five Emperors period, specifically the period of Emperor Luo's reign.”

“Could the 245th World-Star Year signify a traitor at that specific point in time?”

Zhao Xing drew this conclusion from the time-travel years recorded in the Profound Spirit Treasure Pavilion.

During Emperor Luo's final solar year, eight hundred World-Star Years remained under the control of the True God faction.

For the Immeasurable True God to successfully manifest an avatar in the present, many critical temporal barriers had to be traversed.

The 245th World-Star Year should, by rights, also belong to the True God faction.

After noting this detail, the Golden Hoop of Enlightenment on Zhao Xing's head tightened, dispelling all distracting thoughts.

Before the figure on the throne fully materialized, he began to bow in reverence.

“Greetings, Immeasurable True God!”

His voice echoed through the grand hall. Zhao Xing felt an immensely powerful presence coalesce above him, radiating light like a blazing sun. The oppressive sensation was even more intense than his previous visit.

“Dispense with the formalities,” the Immeasurable True God commanded, his gaze settling on Zhao Xing. This time, his expression appeared notably more vivid.

“Thank you, True God.”

Zhao Xing then respectfully presented the refined souls and Yin-Yang Twin Cores. “True God, these are the souls and Yin-Yang Twin Cores I collected,” he reported.

The World Ring, laden with the materials, was instantly taken by the Immeasurable True God.

A divine scan confirmed the Yin-Yang Twin Cores were as expected, but the souls piqued the Immeasurable True
