《Tales of Demons & Gods》Chapter 496 - Locking Spacetime
Advertisement
A Temporal Demon Spirit Book suddenly appeared on Nie Li’s palm. There was a bright radiance emitted from the book, which enveloped Nie Li and Yu Yan.
“What’s the Temporal Demon Spirit Book?” Yu Yan asked in perplexion.
“It’s the strongest treasure in the world!” Nie Li smiled.
“The strongest treasure in the world?” Yu Yan had her own doubts. “What kind of treasure is it that deserves this title?”
“In this world, there’s nothing more powerful than spacetime. Time can erode everything, while space can tear everything apart. With the Temporal Demon Spirit Book, we now have the means to fight the Sage Emperor,” Nie Li smiled. “I once possessed this book, but I lost it later on. I haven’t been able to find it, and now, it finally returned to me.”
“How do you use this book?” Yu Yan asked.
“You’ll know about it later. Let’s look for Ziyun, Ning’er, and the rest first,” Nie Li smiled and soared into the sky. Shortly after, everyone began to gather over.
“Nie Li, I finally found you! Look what I found!” Lu Piao took out a spear in excitement. Brandishing the spear, a strong fluctuation spread out. “With this spear, there’s nothing impossible for me!”
“The Divine Chaotic Dragon Spear?” Nie Li exclaimed.
“You know about it?” Lu Piao asked excitedly. “I seem to be attracted to it, finding it in a volcano. It’s filled with boundless divine power, and it fits me well. I feel like it’s part of me.”
“What about you guys?” Nie Li turned to look at the rest.
“I found a water bead that seems to be able to enhance my cultivation speed,” said Du Ze.
“This is…” Nie Li looked at the unremarkable bead in Du Ze’s hand before he exclaimed, “This should be the Azure Orb. It can enhance your cultivation speed greatly.”

“I found an inner armor,” Xiao Ning’er said, blushing.
“Inner armor? I’ll take a look at it for you at night,” replied Nie Li as he looked at Xiao Ning’er. Suddenly, Nie Li felt a sharp pain coming from his ear. It was Ye Ziyun, who was twisting his ear.
“OUCH! TAP OUT! TAP OUT!” Nie Li cried out anxiously.
“Are you having dirty thoughts again?” Ye Ziyun harrumphed.
“I’m innocent! I only want to take a look at her inner armor for her!” Nie Li cried his grievance out.
“Ziyun, what did you get?” Xiao Ning’er turned to look at Ye Ziyun, changing the topic for Nie Li.
“I found a necklace that contains the divine power of snow wind. It seems to be something left behind by my ancestor,” said Ye Ziyun. “This necklace can multiply the effects of all my secret techniques.”
“Nie Li, what about you?” Lu Piao turned to look at Nie Li, which drew everyone’s attention over.
“Me?” Nie Li smiled mysteriously. He took out the Temporal Demon Spirit Book and quickly formed seals. As seals are formed, a ripple slowly spreads out. “I got the Temporal Demon Spirit Book!”
When the ripple spread out completely, everyone found themselves in a mysterious space. This was an enormous room, with countless bookshelves at the size of buildings.
“Where are we?” Everyone was amazed. They were just in the woods a second ago, so how did they appear here in the next second?
“This is the Infinite Spacetime.” Nie Li smiled. As he walked forth, he explained, “There are millions of books here, and you can find the strongest secret techniques around.”
“Infinite Spacetime?” Du Ze and the others were stunned.
“Millions of secret techniques?” Even Yu Yan was shocked. She flew out and retrieved a book. Looking through it, she exclaimed out, “Skyfire? This is a long lost secret technique! It’s rumored that in late-stage cultivation, you can possess the power to destroy heaven and earth.”

“That’s right. There are many secret techniques here, and many of them were long lost outside,” said Nie Li.
“Nie Li, this treasure of yours is too powerful. With so many secret techniques here, doesn’t it mean that we can cultivate all of them?” Lu Piao exclaimed.
“Don’t bite more than what you can chew,” said Du Ze. Nie Li specially selected our cultivation techniques for us. It’s more than enough for the rest of our lives.”
“Biting more than what I can chew doesn’t exist to the Temporal Demon Spirit Book,” Nie Li replied with a mysterious smile. “The Temporal Demon Spirit Book has a powerful ability, and that’s to lock spacetime.
“Lock spacetime? What do you mean?” Ye Ziyun sounded her doubt.
“That means that even if you cultivate here for decades, it will only be one or two hours to the outside world,” Nie Li smiled. So if you guys are interested, you guys can cultivate all the secret techniques here.”
“WHAT?!” Everyone exclaimed out at the same time with their eyes wide open.
“The Temporal Demon Spirit Book is so powerful?!” Du Ze fell into shock for a long time.
“That’s right. The Temporal Demon Spirit Book is the strongest treasure in the world. But it’s a pity that it can only contain ten people at most. Furthermore, I can only use it once every ten days. Otherwise, I would’ve brought everyone here.” Nie Li sighed.
“Even so, this book is still unbelievably powerful,” said Yu Yan.
“Yeah. You guys start cultivating quickly. Try and make a breakthrough into the Dao of the Dragon Realm and Martial Ancestor Realm,” Nie Li smiled, looking at everyone.
“With the Temporal Demon Spirit Book, doesn’t it mean that we’re invincible now?” Lu Piao sounded his excitement.
“That’s where you’re wrong. Our strongest opponent is the Sage Emperor. Even with the Temporal Demon Spirit Book, it’s not easy to defeat the Sage Emperor.” Nie Li’s face turned grave upon hearing what Lu Piao said.
“Is the Sage Emperor that powerful?” Lu Piao looked at Nie Li in perplexion.
“That’s right. He’s the strongest being in this world,” said Nie Li. “He’s the strongest ruler in the world, not to mention that he possesses all sorts of powerful treasures. So we can only try our best to become powerful to fight him.”
Listening to Nie Li’s words, everyone’s faces turned grave as well.
“Nie Li, we will definitely grow strong. I believe that we can defeat him!” Du Ze said seriously.
“That’s right. I refuse to believe that we can’t defeat him with so many of us here!” Lu Piao added.
Looking at the confidence and determination in everyone’s eyes, Nie Li felt supercharged. Nodding his head, he replied, “Yeah. We can do it!”

The Devil's own sins
Writer updates available for free on patreon. The following account, dear reader, is a recollection and retelling of the story of the first imp. The last devil born from the original primordial pit at the dawn of time, and the lowliest speck of that first generation. It recounts the tale of Thozronnath the pitiful and his steady rise from obscurity, perpetually stuck as a punching bag for his betters until the day hell itself spat him out. The information presented here is pieced together from eye-witness reports and second hand hearsay, sometimes from creatures with more than two hands. I can not tell you with any degree of accuracy how much of it is true as it begins long before our time and it's true ending lies far unto the future still. I can tell you one thing though, it was confusing as hell. Cover: Illustration for John Milton's Paradise Lost by Gustave Doré (1866), a thankfully public domain image. Currently on hiatus.

Vemödalen: From The Other Side
War is coming - And when it comes - And where it comes - And whence it comes - The living shall envy the dead One to carry their sword in the name of their goddess and lady, to protect their land and people against the threat of the wicked. They know their path to be the righteous one. One to roam the land, hunting for all apparitions, and be scorned by man and beast alike. They know their path to be an arduous one. One to wander the realm in search of power, to protect themselves and what they believe in. They know their path to be the only one. Writers note: The first chapter will set the standard in terms of mood for the remainder of the story. It also comes to no surprise to me that half the people who read the first part stop reading any further. It has quite a bit of the good ‘ol ‘ultra-violence’ mixed with a great deal of realism. As much as I could fit into it from my own knowledge and experience in the elite forces. The first few chapters will be slow, after, but starting from ‘Restless Destroyer’ the remainder of the world will start to open up, and when we hit ‘Adronitis’ the prologue is largely finished. The novel is well thought out and filled with hidden lore, culture, history. So even if my word choice appears random – it’s not. There is a reason why these chapters take as long as they do. Vermodalen is fantasy adventure, with magic and heroics in an as realistic setting as I could fit. Things are rarely what they seem, and the ugly nature of people bleed through the letters at the turn of every page. I hope you can give this story a fair chance, even if it isn’t immediately to your taste. Lastly, english isn't my first language. It isn't my second one either. So, if you find errors in grammer and spelling, wordplay and sentance building, do let me know, and you will be rewarded by a surge of dopamine that will be released inside your brain for helping someone whom you haven't even seen or heard.
