It is said that at the time of the universe's inception, a batch of the oldest continents opened up alongside it, including the supreme Heaven Realm.
But besides the Heaven Realm, there were also some other continents that were born at the same time. This batch of continents possessed the chaotic primordial aura of the universe's creation, serving as the source continents among countless others.
These source continents do not necessarily have a very high level; some have become ordinary planes due to special reasons.
Countless billions of years have passed, and these ordinary planes have integrated into the many planes that later emerged, fading into obscurity. However, no matter what, these planes are the source continents from the time of the universe's creation and hold an extraordinary status.
Tianwu Continent is very likely one of such continents.
Qin Chen gasped in disbelief. Did Tianwu Continent really have such an impressive origin?
"It's not impossible. Only source continents can attract the essence of time; otherwise, how could the essence of time, such a rule, appear in such a lower realm? Do you think the essence of time is as common as cabbage, with one in every plane?"
The big black cat looked at Qin Chen with envy: "If this emperor's guess is correct, and Tianwu Continent is indeed a source continent born during the universe's creation, then you hit the jackpot. Your future will be limitless. After all, not everyone can gain the recognition of a source continent. Once you have that recognition, you will have the chance to obtain the primordial aura from the universe's creation, becoming the supreme existence in the Heaven Realm."
"Alright, this young master is not even at the Holy Realm yet. What supreme existence are you talking about? Let's focus on surviving and getting out of here first."
Qin Chen said dismissively.
It wasn't that he was being realistic; rather, he clearly understood that any strong person has emerged from weakness. Many talented individuals, despite having exceptional resources, end up indistinguishable from the masses.
To become strong, it does not rely on recognition from the heavens or being the child of a plane, but rather on personal diligence and struggle. True strong individuals have fought their way up; if one gets lost in those so-called hyped titles, it is truly tragic.
The big black cat looked at Qin Chen in surprise, not expecting him to have such an open mindset.
Qin Chen remained unfazed. He certainly understood the importance of source continents and the prestige of being the child of a plane, which made him feel good. However, martial artists must defy the heavens while staying true to their original intentions, taking one step at a time to forge their path.
"If the essence of time is here, then where is the essence of Tianwu Continent?"
Qin Chen asked.
What he needed most now was to find the essence of Tianwu Continent, using it to break through to the Holy Realm, and then go out to deal with the three fools in the Heaven Realm.
"Don't rush. Since this golden rune led you here, then the answer must also lie with it. As long as you obtain the essence of time, you will naturally find the essence of the heavens and earth. After all, the appearance of the essence of time here must have a reason."
The big black cat said, clearly shirking responsibility.
Qin Chen looked at the golden rune.
Boom! The golden rune shone brightly, releasing golden light arcs that shot into the sky, illuminating this desolate secret realm. The rune emitted an even more brilliant glow, and its supreme aura instantly enveloped the entire ancient battlefield, capable of easily killing any expert from the Heaven Realm outside.
However, this aura was controlled within this ancient battlefield; otherwise, if it were to spread out, it would likely scare away Ling Luling and the others, who were hiding and waiting for Dong Yu Yin's arrival.
Boom! The broken blade emitted a faint black light, also releasing a terrifying aura, charging towards the golden rune.
