Chapter 1201: Chapter 520 Baptism of the Mysterious Substance, Upstream in Time to the Past!_2
This demonstrates the strength that comes from embarking on the path of transcendence.
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Yuan prepared to make another attempt.
The next moment.
He looked up.
Above his head was still the original chaos and mist, without the slightest change.
Then he positioned himself on the river’s surface and once again struggled mightily to rise.
In an instant.
Every part of his body, every cell, seemed to be bound by countless chains.
Creak—
Creak—
The sound of friction between bones could be heard immediately.
Under Jiang Yuan’s powerful force, his body gradually broke free from this bondage, bit by bit emerging from the water.
As his body surfaced, Jiang Yuan felt the binding force grow stronger and more terrifying.
However, the next moment, his face lit up with joy.
"It’s really possible!"
As his body emerged, Jiang Yuan instantly felt mysterious substances fall from the void above, merging into his body.
He underwent a transformation once again.
Several hours later, this transformation came to an end.
Compared to the last transformation, this one lasted even longer.
Jiang Yuan looked down to see his exposed body nearly at waist level, with arms now free to extend out of the water.
Without doubt, there was progress compared to before.
After that, Jiang Yuan clenched his fists, slightly sensing the surging power within him.
"This time it has increased by roughly forty-five percent!" he murmured, his face showing a contemplative expression: "It seems that the more one breaks free from the bonds of the Time River, the more intense the transformations that come."
He then mused thoughtfully: "And it seems I’ve found a new path to transcendence: transcendence through strength, transcendence through the physical body!"
"I can clearly feel that the stronger the body and power, the better I can resist the shackles of the Time River and forcefully break free from the chains of the Five Elements."
"But clearly, compared to transcending by mastering the power of time, this path is more difficult."
"The requirements for physical body and strength are terribly high!"
With that thought.
Jiang Yuan once again mobilized all his strength, struggling to ascend.
Boom—
Muscles and bones chimed in unison, qi and blood gushed forth, and 108 trillion cells in his body released all their power.
In this moment, his body was filled with streaks of God’s Light.
Brilliant lights of various colors burst forth from his pores.
Boom—
The river’s surface instantly gave rise to endless waves.
In an instant.
The river region where Jiang Yuan was began to rage, with surging waves and towering crests.
Giant waves, tens of meters high, were lifted and shone with specks of silver light, then crashed down on the river’s surface, immediately creating a deafening roar.
At this moment.
Jiang Yuan felt as if he was not in water, but a mire, a mire desperate to devour him completely.
Innumerable invisible chains below rose to tightly bind every inch of his body.
Break for me—
Jiang Yuan roared internally.
All his strength was fully mobilized under his powerful control.
His body slowly rose out of the water, bit by bit.
At the same time, mysterious substances continued to fall from the void above, merging into his body.
But Jiang Yuan had no time to pay attention.
He bit down hard, tensing his muscles, and forcefully broke free from the water’s hold.
He knew he couldn’t let this breath go. Once let out, to attempt this again would require a long period of recuperation.
Time slowly passed, breath by breath.
Jiang Yuan’s body also slowly rose from the river, revealing more and more of his torso.
After several breaths.
Phew—
A breath exhaled from his mouth as the determination in his heart completely deflated, and a trace of weariness appeared between his brows.
"This is my limit for now, to go further, I need to enhance my strength!"
Jiang Yuan looked down and saw that much of his body had already completely emerged from the river, with the upper half hovering above the surface, unfazed by the sweeping waves.
"That’s enough," he nodded in satisfaction.
Then he closed his eyes gently, quietly feeling the baptism of the mysterious matter falling from above.
Time continued to slowly pass.
Half a day later.
Jiang Yuan opened his eyes again.
He clenched his fists, feeling the astonishing power within, and a joyful smile appeared on his face.
Indeed, the improvement was even greater.
My strength has doubled on top of the existing foundation.
"Not bad, not bad at all!" he praised aloud.
After feeling the changes within, Jiang Yuan’s gaze fell on the upstream of the Time River.
In his eyes, the Time River was like an ocean without boundaries.
His vision could only reach a certain distance across the river’s surface, beyond which was shrouded in gray mist.
The next moment.
His right foot beneath the river’s surface slowly stepped upstream.
Boom—
In an instant, countless scenes appeared before his eyes, complex and numerous, retreating rapidly in his vision.
"So this is what it’s like to go against the Time River!" Jiang Yuan murmured.
At the same time.
He also felt a terrifying shock hit his body, causing a slight wobble.
"It’s okay, I can withstand it!"
Jiang Yuan nodded to himself.
After steadying his stance, he took another step forward.
Boom—
The scenes before him continued to retreat.
Among the myriad images, he suddenly saw scenes of himself transcending tribulation in outer space, witnessing the fearsome Supreme Tribulation sweeping across the vastness of space.
As he walked further, those scenes retreated even more, Saint’s Tribulation descended, and numerous Saints looked on in horror.
Jiang Yuan kept walking, continuing forward, and soon he saw himself outside the South Heaven Gate, saw the scenes of the Covenant Battle, saw his own figure in Pearl Cave...
