Chapter 1514: Chapter 1514: Laws of Time and Space

The old man glanced at Yang Yan and said with a smile, "Young man, you’re truly chosen, your understanding is quite sharp! I didn’t expect you to sense the Time Law just by standing on this Space-Time Boat for a moment! Interesting, indeed."

Yang Yan looked at the old man in silence, then looked down at the Space-Time Boat beneath him.

He didn’t understand what this had to do with the Space-Time Boat.

The old man gazed at the rolling space-time turbulence ahead and said to Yang Yan, "This Space-Time Boat is crafted from the Space-Time Beast, which is said to be innately close to Space and Time Laws."

"Around it, Time and Space Laws envelop it like a net. It’s said that a Space-Time Beast that has achieved Great Success can traverse the River of Time and cannot be killed."

"Of course, this is just a rumor. If it were true, this species would have been immortal long ago! Yet ordinary folks cannot touch them."

"And this Space-Time Boat, it’s crafted from an adult Space-Time Beast. It’s so rich with Time and Space Laws that even True Monarchs covet this rare opportunity. Do you understand?"

Yang Yan, with a sudden blessing of insight, nodded lightly with understanding and sat cross-legged on the Space-Time Boat, appreciating the Time Rule.

Initially, Yang Yan felt nothing.

But as the two leaves of the World Tree in his mind gently moved, two large Order Divine Chains appeared before Yang Yan.

With just a glance, Yang Yan felt as though he was to be sliced by space.

In an instant, time flowed, space split, transforming him from a young man to a frail old one.

Yang Yan thought it was an illusion, then settled his mind and sent a strand of consciousness towards the two Order Divine Chains.

Meanwhile, in the external world, Yang Yan’s body continuously switched from youth to old age.

The old man’s initial indifferent smile turned into a silent astonishment as he watched.

Though he had seen Yang Yan’s extraordinary talent at first glance, he never expected the young man to possess such formidable capabilities.

In just a moment, Yang Yan had touched the Time Law and was immersed in it, constantly deepening his understanding.

The old man, intrigued, was highly curious.

He wondered if, after crossing the Sea of Space-Time, this young man could truly comprehend the Time Law...

Thus, as the old man maneuvered the Space-Time Boat, he silently observed every change in Yang Yan.

As time passed, the old man’s surprise grew increasingly intense.

While they were only halfway across the Sea of Space-Time, the rate of Yang Yan’s external transformation slowed.

Around him, countless layers of space appeared, forming infinite overlaps.

Though these seemed somewhat illusory, a close observation would reveal that they were gradually solidifying.

The old man, once buoyant with anticipation, became steadily solemn.

Foregoing the control of the Space-Time Boat, he focused intently.

The space around Yang Yan solidified progressively quicker.

It seemed like a cage, yet the cage appeared non-existent in this space...

The old man pondered briefly, then couldn’t help but mutter to himself, "Could this young man comprehend Space Law? Such potential usually requires the Half-Immortal Realm at least! Yet he’s barely entered the mid-Void Realm... Strange, indeed!"

Time advanced, and just as the cage around Yang Yan was about to form, it suddenly shattered with a crack.

The old man extended a finger to break the cage, but unexpectedly, a strand of Power of Time entangled his hand, causing his finger to age visibly.

Soon, the flesh disappeared from his finger, exposing the bony skeleton beneath.

The old man withdrew his finger, a different surge of Power of Time swirled, restoring it instantly.

The old man couldn’t help but chuckle.

He clearly did not expect to be wounded by a junior who hadn’t even achieved immortality.

Yet it was indeed so.

Even as shock shook the old man’s heart, he refrained from further testing, calmly piloting the Space-Time Boat.

Yang Yan, meanwhile, sighed inwardly, not expecting his fleeting idea to result in failure.

Yet Yang Yan understood it was merely a lack of strength. If he achieved Semi-Saint level, he might even form the Magic without reaching the Saint’s realm.

As the notion dawned on Yang Yan, he promptly abandoned Space Law study, turning his focus to the Time Law.

Externally, Yang Yan’s physique shifted wildly, oscillating between youthful vigor and elderly frailty.

At one instant, Yang Yan found his flesh vanished entirely, leaving only bones.

Alarmed, the old man employed Power of Time to stabilize Yang Yan’s form.

Moments later, Yang Yan reverted to his youthful self.

Yang Yan’s face turned pale as he spat a mouthful of blood.

Coming to his senses, Yang Yan couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly, realizing his overreach.

The old man’s white brows knitted as he rebuked Yang Yan, "Young lad, you’re truly reckless! The Power of Time is profoundly mysterious, how dare you explore the Time Origin?! Do you have a death wish?"

Yang Yan gave an awkward smile, reluctant to respond.

As time passed and Yang Yan’s injuries healed significantly, he respectfully addressed the old man, "Thank you for saving my life, senior."

The old man waved it off casually, saying, "No cause for concern! It’s merely a small effort. I can’t bear to let someone with your unparalleled talent perish and merely preserve a glimmer of hope for humanity!"

Yang Yan remained respectful, "Senior, each action has its destiny. Your rescue today is the cause, and my saving you in the future shall be the effect."

"For your predicament, I shall strive with all my might to resolve it. Should I lack such power, I will seek someone able to rescue you."

The old man, though feeling comforted, replied with a composed demeanor, "Let it be by fate. Do your best. I have said, perhaps one day my power might advance and I may overcome it myself."

Yang Yan then stayed silent, patiently waiting for the Space-Time Boat to dock.

Half a day later, the Space-Time Boat traversed the Sea of Space-Time.

With a sweep of his sleeve, the old man led Yang Yan off the boat.

With a pointed finger, a swirl formed in Yang Yan’s sea of consciousness, spontaneously emerging with a wealth of knowledge.

After a brief shock, Yang Yan felt joy, quickly calming his mind and organizing it.

This was the method imparted by the old man, guiding him in the use of space and time rules.

Yang Yan was deeply moved emotionally and bowed distantly towards the old man.

The old man laughed heartily before preparing to leave aboard the Space-Time Boat.

Yang Yan hurriedly asked, "Senior, may I know your name?"

The old man chuckled gently, "Just an old immortal, not worthy of memory, I am the Space-Time Immortal Monarch of the Immortal Realm."
