Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

223  Repairing the Cultivation Time Chamber

In the inner world of the Nine Heavens Palace, Arthur meditated on the ancient scriptures of the Nine Heavens Sacred Universal Scripture.

"It's time to plan for my next breakthrough, but this next level is strange," Arthur muttered as he looked at the writings on his book Martial Spirit.

The Divine Dao Book.

Each stroke of the characters seemed to whisper the secrets of a power beyond the mundane.

"It was this book martial spirit that created this unknown cultivation technique that even Aixen was stumped about its methods."

"So the Half-Step Martial Emperor Realm is called the Foundations of the Spirit God Realm?" Arthur thought.

With his decision to tread the next path of the Half-Step Martial Emperor Realm he ventured into the next stage of the scripture.

Just like the previous cultivation stages, the name of the cultivation realm and the methods is something that was strange and way beyond normal.

But the gains Arthur was getting from cultivating the Nine Heavens Sacred Universal Scripture was unimaginable.

The original cultivation techniques of his bloodlines were; Divine Scripture of the Chaos Dragon and Eternal Life Divine Scripture.

He was supposed to choose which one to cultivate amongst them or even cultivation both of them separately but that was when his Book Martial Spirit Awoke.

It fused these two techniques together before Arthur could get a good look at them so he has no way of knowing what the original methods would be like.

"Let's focus on this for now. The resources required for this are immense. I never felt that I would face a lack of resources at this juncture in my Cultivation with all the Fortuitous Encounters I have had."

Arthur indeed had a lot of resources so much so that even many forces of the Central Continent will pale in comparison to what he has.

But the crux of the matter now was that there was a certain resource he doesn't have and that resource is required to cultivate the next stage of his cultivation technique.

"It says I have to forge the 9 by 9 Spirit God Foundation. Which means a total of 81 Star Foundation instead of 9 like the others"

The complexities of forming an 81 Star Foundation awaited him — a task far more intricate than the typical nine-star cultivation.

His gaze flickered with determination and expectations

"81 Star Foundation," he murmured, the weight of the challenge evident in his eyes.

He will have to forge his foundations in batches of 9.

"This means that once I start, I must not stop until I have forged a Nine-Star Foundation in one sitting and then repeat the process nine times?"

This was dangerous as the process of forge the star foundations was very delicate.

Moreover, it required more than just skill; it demanded a peculiar set of resources of which Arthur was lacking three of them.

In the heart of the Nine Heavens Palace, Arthur concentrated his thoughts, planning the forging process.

The magnitude of this endeavor meant that he had to complete each set of nine stars in a single sitting, the intricate dance of energy demanding a seamless execution.

As he prepared to commence, Arthur decided to augment the time chamber for the time being as he can't rush to start his cultivation and the time chamber plays a very important role for him.

Currently, its ratio of 3:1, where 3 days inside is 1 day in the outside world.

While this was very beneficial, it wasn't sufficient for the target he had set for himself.

"Even if I successfully forge the first batch of the Nine-Star Foundation, to any onlooker my cultivation will only appear to be on the One-Star level."

Arthur doesn't want to be someone whose cultivation will be lower than members of the same generation no matter what!

"Time to fix this Palace once more," Arthur moved.

Guiding the Nine Heavens Palace to the inner dimension of the time gem, he harnessed its energy, funneling it into the chamber to enhance its temporal properties.

"Come on!"

The celestial aura within the chamber shimmered as Arthur, with focused precision, manipulated the energy flow.

Arthur concentrated on guiding the power on the time gem on the palace as the palace began to recover very slowly.

As this happened, Aixen was also undergoing some improvements that even he did not expect.

Time passes and soon, Aixen appeared besides Arthur to give a report of the progress.

Aixen had been monitoring the flow of time in the outside world.

"Master Arthur, the artifact has recovered greatly and the time ratio of the Cultivation Time Chamber has reached 5:1!"

"Also, it's been two weeks in the external world," Aixen reported.

Arthur, beads of sweat glistening on his forehead, ceased the manipulation.

There were some strain on his mental power. Even with his immense soul power he felt strained whenever he uses the power of the gems for long.

"That's great. This will help a lot," Arthur grinned.

"Good, let's pause for now," Arthur exhaled, a mixture of weariness and satisfaction on his face.

"Moreover Master, I have some good news to report," Aixen sounded excited and Arthur raised an eyebrow.

"What's getting you excited old man," Arthur asked as Aixen always kept his act as a wise old sage.

"Master, the power of the time gem is not just repairing the Nine Heavens Palace but it is doing so much more!"

"Like what?"

"It is reversing the state of the Palace to its peak!"

Arthur's eyes widened, "You mean?..."

-------

In the real world, Arthur emerged from the inner dimension of the time gem.

The transition from the sacred atmosphere of the Time Gem to the real world made Arthur felt a bit disoriented.

'This only happens with the time gem.'

At this time, the trio, Kaiser, Tanik, and Brandon, were summoned and they rushed into the hall where he was.

Their expressions held a mix of anticipation and respect.

"Master, we've got news about the Beard Gang Brothers," Kaiser reported promptly.

"Finally," Arthur muttered.
