Chapter 1656: Chapter 157: Planning for the Future (Part 2)
Zhou Yan temporarily gave up and then headed to the Gu family, intending to search for information about Gu Yan, but the Gu family existed without a trace of Gu Yan’s information.
Similarly, Zhou Yan found no relevant traces.
These cannot merely be coincidences; this can only mean a change in the time point.
Zhou Yan left the Carefree Main City and arrived at the former Snow Domain.
Snow Domain, Bixue Palace.
Bixue Palace was the initial place where Jiang Yuning was located.
Later, Jiang Yuning went to the Great Zhou family due to certain matters.
Zhou Yan wasn’t very clear about these matters, but he knew that Jiang Yuning felt guilty for the Zhou family’s soul-stealing plan and followed them to the Sword Burial Ancestor Star.
Zhou Yan traversed through the Snow Domain and entered the Cold Ice Palace.
The forces of Cold Ice Palace existed but weren’t very strong, not much stronger than the Bishui Sword Sect.
And among these women, Zhou Yan did not recognize anyone.
These things led Zhou Yan’s conjectures into a state of distress.
These familiar elements were all missing.
In his helplessness, Zhou Yan couldn’t help but think of Yao, Fairy Die, and the Void Saint, among others.
If calculated in such circumstances, these people should appear about now.
Zhou Yan traversed through ancient lands and arrived at the former location of the Heavenly Capital Middle Mansion.
Here, Zhou Yan didn’t find anything special, nor did Heaven and Earth undergo any mutations.
Ultimately, Zhou Yan could only temporarily set aside his thoughts and then head to the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sword Tomb.
Ten Thousand Ghosts Sword Tomb, Frost Tears.
That place provides access to the Black Water River, heading towards the unknown Void Ancient Land.
Given Zhou Yan’s limited ability, he temporarily abandoned his deduction plans for such changes and instead started accumulating resources and strengthening his ability.
He knew that the changes in Heaven and Earth should begin when the Sword Burial Ancestor Star was devoured and transformed into a true planet, becoming a breeding ground.
So, if these changes don’t occur, there’s nothing to worry about.
If they do, then the future will become the past, and the past will become the future.
This is a change or perhaps the best course to comprehend.
And regarding this point on the timeline, the Controller clearly did not know, Lee Ran intervened in the middle, altering everything.
Zhou Yan returned to the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sword Tomb. Based on past memories and future understanding, Zhou Yan acquired many resources, then hunted numerous evil demons at the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sword Tomb, consuming and refining them entirely, cultivating himself to the First Layer of the Void Soul Realm.
This realm isn’t particularly powerful, but compared to the past Void Realm, it’s already at the level where one can traverse the void.
At this realm, unless Zhou Yan gains strong energy infusion and accumulates the foundation of rules, his realm is difficult to improve for now.
However, Zhou Yan does not mind, this realm is already sufficient.
Relying on this realm, Zhou Yan again hunted a large number of lives, afterward, Zhou Yan traversed the Netherworld Heavenly Road, relying on the mastery of the Void Thunder Tribulation nodes, arriving at the Void Land.
This could be a desolate domain, probably the void gap between the Soul Burying Starfield and the True God Plane.
All belong to a piece of void territory under the Domain World.
These, in Zhou Yan’s eyes, are not complicated.
With the help of his powerful Soul and a vast store of Soul Energy, combined with the method of deduction of the Heavenly Mechanism, Zhou Yan expended certain abilities upon arriving here, but accomplishing this was not difficult.
Here, Zhou Yan employed the Time Origin method to set up a Yuan Ci Void.
Then, he quietly waited here, waiting for that day’s arrival.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yan also silently cultivated, and time slowly changed.
In this void gap, the cultivation and devouring are of the upper-class plane ’True God Plane’ energy, its essence and power are naturally incomparable to the Sword Burial Ancestor Star.
Therefore, Zhou Yan’s advancement speed is very fast, but these are not issues for Zhou Yan, he does not mind the current progress in cultivation.
Time, bit by bit, passed.
In such void, Zhou Yan waited seventy years.
Seventy years of cultivation, constantly devouring the energy of the True God Plane, this caused Zhou Yan’s realm to have crossed the Void Soul Realm, Soul Spring Realm, Soul Sea Realm, and Heavenly Tribulation Realm, directly reaching the Life Soul Realm.
Life Soul Realm, now Zhou Yan has also cultivated to the Nine Great Perfection realm, about to step into the Holy Domain realm.
Holy Domain realm, a realm on the correct path, is much more powerful than the former Nine Origin Sword Saint realm.
It’s just that the division of realm and the rules differ.
Now, after seventy years of waiting, what should come has finally arrived.
The Void Thunder Tribulation appeared once more, then two streams of Blood Qi passed through, crossing the void.
Another shadow traversed towards this unknown void.
Zhou Yan’s figure moved, his Life Soul power suddenly enveloped that shadow, then the Time Trace Method suddenly appeared, trapping the shadow in his void.
The void condensed a body, manifesting into a dark-robed figure.
The dark-robed figure had a crew-cut, bright eyes, and his whole body carried terrifying Fist Intent.
"Hmm? Who are you, sir? What’s your reason for stopping me, Lee Ran?"
The dark-robed youth’s face appeared stern, showing extremely obvious signs of apprehension.
