Chapter 1027: Chapter 3: What Even Gods Cannot Do Follow current novels on NovelHub(.)net
Three figures represent three different manifestations of Bai Shu in varying times and spaces!
Aged, at the peak, youthful.
These three figures overlap, emanating waves of terrifying transcendent power… This brand-new Golden Divine Domain almost crushed the void. Using the power of the “flame,” Bai Shu actually began to comprehend time.
Among the highest seats of the Seven Gods of the past, no one had ever tried to comprehend such bizarre, forbidden power.
The power of time, when comprehended by the mortal, can be called “transcendent.”
Chen Mei’s “Time Slow” is already one of the top abilities in all of Da Du!
But what if it were mastered by a Divine Throne?
Gu Shen recalled the conversation on the second floor of the attic.
The Empress had once spoken to him about some conflicts concerning the Nether River in the highest seat.
She hoped Gu Shen would convey her gratitude to Mr. Bai Shu upon returning to the East Continent.
Earlier in the conference room, when the Empress wanted to block the Duolu River, Sky, Light, and Storm all objected, and at that time, Bai Shu stood up—
Bai Shu unceremoniously “threatened” the three Outer Continent Divines!
Should they dare to head to the Nether River, he dared to take a walk to the domain without a Divine Throne!
Seeing this three-layered overlapping Golden Divine Domain of time now, Gu Shen roughly understood where Mr. Bai Shu’s confidence came from… It seems Bai Shu’s Reverse Flow Divine Domain can indeed manifest three different divine bodies, each acting independently.
“Gu Shen, you’re back.”
With a deep and resonant voice, the golden light over the Giant Statue Ruins gradually receded.
Those blurred shadows from different times and spaces all overlapped onto one person. The figure in the air slowly descended, and the golden light on his body dissipated with the wind… Even a Divine Throne cannot truly oppose time. After refining the spark, Bai Shu had completely changed from his former “decadent and withered” appearance, becoming much younger, though his temples still showed strands of white.
These are marks from traversing the river of history.
A Divine Throne, too, ages, only slower than an ordinary person.
And the Bai Family’s Reverse Flow is a powerful tool against time.
Apart from other external factors, if no war broke out among the Seven Gods, and no spark power was used, just peacefully “coexisting”… Then the one to live the longest would surely be Bai Shu.
Both paid their respects and spoke in low voices.
After the cemetery, Bai Shu told Gu Shen and Chu Ling that in regular meetings, there was no need to address him as Divine Throne.
Firstly, because he disliked such empty rituals.
Secondly, because… Gu Shen himself is the chosen one of the Netherworld King’s Spark, destined to become one of the Seven Gods in the future; there’s no need for such reverence in their addresses.
Bai Shu, upon seeing Gu Shen, looked somewhat emotional, admiringly.
His gaze fixed directly on the center of Gu Shen’s brow.
“I didn’t expect… you really could break open my ‘Battle Golden Hoop’.”
When he placed the golden hoop on Gu Shen, he didn’t hold back!
Since the Super Third Realm, such things existed only in legends; not even in past rumors was there mention of any transcendent who could achieve this “feat”… When Bai Shu granted the golden hoop, he couldn’t be sure whether breaking the hoop would mean breaking the third realm.
All was mere speculation.
Luckily… Gu Shen’s potential was even greater than Bai Shu had anticipated.
This young man, although seemingly “ordinary,” in reality, was like a resilient frost plant. Once emerging and poking its head out of the ground, it grew rapidly against the wind.
“The Super Third Realm… across the Five Continents, you’re the only one.”
Bai Shu revealed a satisfied expression, speaking warmly.
In the past, he was second only to Gu Changzhi, known as Changye Invincible!
Throughout all these years, Bai Shu had encountered countless talents; those whom he regarded highly were exceedingly rare. Such praise as “the only one,” which felt dangerously close to excessive flattery, left Gu Shen feeling overwhelmed by the unexpected honor.
He earnestly asked, “Senior Bai Shu, is the Super Third Realm… really that difficult?”
On the path of breakthrough, Gu Shen had endured many hardships.
But honestly, not just he alone could endure these hardships; if it were Bai Xiu… perhaps she could also achieve this miracle of the Super Third Realm.
Bai Shu gave the lad a sidelong glance.
“Even Gu Changzhi didn’t achieve that back then; do you say it’s difficult or not?”
He said emotionally, “However, this matter can be as hard or as easy as you make it… Because most talented transcendants don’t entangle themselves too much with the super realm at the ‘third stage.’ Even if they do not earn a title, they will still become a fourth stage eventually.”
Gu Shen nodded in agreement.
Indeed, it made sense… As far as he knew, Bai Xiu had already reached the fourth stage.
In the third stage, understanding the “Domain Embryo,” most transcendants would latch onto that inspiration and quickly advance to the fourth stage. Once reaching the fourth stage, they could have an independent and complete “Extraordinary Domain”!
This was incredibly important… Compared to the tangible power immediately accessible, the illusory “Super Third Realm” seemed a bit tactless.
For those whose comprehension of the Domain Embryo went smoothly, if they already had the ability to break through two realms and fervently aimed to ascend, in the slowest case, it would take them three to five years to reach the “fourth stage.”
But attempting to “break through three realms,” who knows how long that would take.
Bai Shu asked with a smile, “Gu Shen, I’m somewhat curious… how exactly did you accomplish it?”
Concerning most matters in the North Continent, he hadn’t paid much attention.
After granting the golden hoop, Bai Shu went into seclusion for cultivation, refining the flame, only occasionally sensing some of the disturbances returned by the flame… Through these disturbances, he could glean some simple information.
