Divine Hall of Stagnation, Inner Hall.
Chu Sheng placed the Time Trace Hourglass, which emanated strange temporal fluctuations, into his Lifebound Space. A great weight was finally lifted from his heart.
He used Instant Teleportation to return to Gu Yuexi's side. With a flap of his wings, he was ready to grab her and make a run for it.
"BUZZZ (Got it, let's scram!)"
"Wait a moment."
But Gu Yuexi stopped him.
She looked at the vast, empty Divine Hall, a glint in her eyes.
"The core Power of Space-Time within the Divine Hall has been almost completely absorbed by that Time Trace Hourglass. The passage to the third floor should be opening now."
She paused, her tone becoming complicated—a mixture of anticipation and a trace of regret.
"I don't have the strength left to go in. Besides, I've told you before, the opportunity on this third floor belongs to you!"
"Inside, it's very likely... that it holds the secret of your existence!"
The moment her words fell.
RUMBLE...
