Chapter 198: Comprehension of the Law of Time, Returning to Spirit City
Today's Spirit City, compared to the Spirit City in the original work, was dozens of times more prosperous.
Among the reasons, aside from it being the city where Yun Yuan became the Atlas God.
The introduction of various advanced technologies was the most crucial factor.
After Yun Yuan became a god, in order to make his own living experience in Spirit City better.
He directly brought in a large number of soul engineers from the Sun Moon Continent and rebuilt Spirit City.
In addition, after Yun Yuan became a god, he would occasionally bring some daily-use advanced technological products down from the God Realm.
The current Spirit City was filled with skyscrapers everywhere.
If a transmigrator came here without knowing the truth, they might even think this was the Douluo III era.
Suo Tuo City was a large city close to Spirit City.
Yun Yuan and Ah Yin had already arrived here.
Looking at the familiar buildings around him, Yun Yuan recalled the scene of when he tempered his killing intent in the Suo Tuo Great Soul Arena.
Back then, he alone, with a single spear, challenged the entire Suo Tuo Great Soul Arena, making his name famous throughout the whole city.
Now that he had returned here again, Yun Yuan felt that hazy feeling of revisiting an old place rising in his heart.
Time cannot be seen or touched. It is truly profound and unfathomable."
After sighing emotionally, Yun Yuan stretched out his palm.
There was a pure white light spot in the center of his palm. This was his comprehension of time during this period.
After arriving in Suo Tuo City today, the pure white light spot in his palm grew a little larger once again.
After experiencing the nirvana method, during this period of traveling with Ah Yin.
He had not been idle either.
Before transforming into the Dao Fruit and undergoing nirvana, he already possessed comprehension of eight elemental laws, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, darkness, and space, as well as the Law of Creation.
But if he wanted to break through ten thousand Daos with strength, these nine laws were still not enough for Yun Yuan.
He still needed more comprehension of laws.
The Law of Time was precisely the next law Yun Yuan planned to comprehend.
His comprehension of time had been ongoing ever since he awakened.
Revisiting old places was a good method to comprehend the Law of Time.
When he and Ah Yin walked through the places he had once visited.
Yun Yuan's heart would always be touched, giving him some comprehension of the Law of Time.
"Ah Yuan, quickly look; that's the Suo Tuo Great Soul Arena where the Atlas God became famous with a single battle back then."
Ah Yin held Yun Yuan's hand, looking toward the Suo Tuo Great Soul Arena with a face full of joy.
"I heard that when the Atlas God was still weak, he once used money as bait here to test his spear against the entire Great Soul Arena."
"This story has already become the symbol of Suo Tuo City."
Ah Yin held Yun Yuan's hand while introducing it to him.
She was worried that Yun Yuan did not know about this legendary matter concerning the Atlas God.
But as the creator of the story, Yun Yuan understood the entire process better than anyone else.
There was no need for Ah Yin to introduce it at all. This was truly reversing the natural order.
After finishing speaking, Ah Yin stopped, her gaze looking toward the direction of Spirit City.
"Ah Yuan, tell me, when we arrive at Spirit City tomorrow, will we be able to meet the legendary Atlas God?"
"I've admired him for a long time. If I meet him, I'll definitely ask him for an autograph."
Ah Yin's eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Maybe."
"However, I didn't expect that you actually admired the Atlas God this much."
Yun Yuan glanced at the worshipful Ah Yin and secretly thought in his heart:
'Silly woman, you even want to ask him for an autograph. You've already held his hand more than once, yet you still care about that autograph.'
'Tomorrow, I should reveal my identity to her. At the same time, it will also be time to say goodbye.'
After returning to Spirit City, Yun Yuan naturally would not continue traveling across the continent with Ah Yin.
If Ah Yin still wanted to travel across the continent, then he would give Ah Yin some methods to protect herself.
After all, during this period of time, he had already regarded this gentle but foolishly silly woman as his good friend.
In this world, how many friends did he, Yun Yuan, even have?
Beside him, after hearing Yun Yuan's words, Ah Yin said to Yun Yuan with a heart full of admiration:
"Of course. Ah Yuan, you don't know, I used to be a soul beast. I witnessed too many scenes of soul beasts and soul masters slaughtering each other."
"But after the Atlas God established the Spirit Pagoda, spirit soul technology became widespread. The soul beasts of the Douluo Continent no longer have to face the danger of being hunted. They can become partners who fight side by side with soul masters."
"Although we hundred-thousand-year soul beasts are still somewhat in danger, there's no need to explain how great the Atlas God's contribution to our soul beast race is."
"Any soul beast who understands the deeds of the Atlas God and knows how to think for the soul beast race would admire the Atlas God."
The moment her voice fell, Ah Yin looked toward Yun Yuan and suddenly noticed his gloomy and saddened expression.
This instantly made Ah Yin panic inside.
She hurriedly used both of her small hands to hold Yun Yuan's hand in front of her, her expression becoming more serious than ever before.
"Actually, Ah Yuan, the person I admire the most is you. The Atlas God is only someone I admire quite a bit."
"You absolutely must not misunderstand. My feelings toward that Atlas God are only pure admiration."
After saying this, a faint blush appeared on Ah Yin's cheeks.
Only then did she react. Why had she just said these words to Yun Yuan?
Could it be that she really had fallen in love with Yun Yuan?
At this moment, Ah Yin's heart was especially chaotic, and she simply could not sort out her own feelings.
"Oh~ Ah Yin, so I'm actually this amazing. In your heart, I even surpass the Atlas God."
"Then I'm quite proud."
A wicked smile appeared at the corner of Yun Yuan's mouth as he immediately teased Ah Yin.
"Narcissist, shameless."
Ah Yin muttered softly. That tone was just like playful flirting between two lovers.
"Alright, Ah Yin, your courage has grown. You actually dare to make fun of me. I'm going to take your soul bone."
"Jie jie jie."
The iconic villainous laugh came from Yun Yuan's mouth.
However, these things could not scare Ah Yin.
"Hmph, still trying to scare me. Ah Yuan, do you think you're the only one who can laugh, jie jie jie?"
"I can too."
"Jie jie jie."
Ah Yin tried hard to pretend to look very fierce, and the iconic villainous laugh also came from her mouth.
But this appearance was adorably fierce.
Forget scaring others; it would already be good enough if she did not make them feel charmed by her cuteness.
"No way, I'm going to die laughing. Ah Yin, is your true body a husky? How are you, Blue Silver Grass? How can there be such a silly hundred-thousand-year soul beast?"
Seeing this scene, Yun Yuan could no longer hold back the laughter in his heart and burst out laughing while holding his stomach.
Ah Yin listened to Yun Yuan mentioning a husky. Although she did not know what kind of soul beast it was.
From Yun Yuan's expression, it was definitely not some intelligent soul beast.
"Ah Yuan, you're mocking me. I'm going to bite you to death."
Ah Yin directly jumped forward, hugged Yun Yuan, and bit toward his neck.
...
The next day, the two finally arrived in the most prosperous city on the Douluo Continent.
Spirit City!!!
The moment they entered this place, skyscrapers filled the area. Ah Yin was like a country bumpkin, her eyes constantly looking around.
All kinds of new things broadened Ah Yin's horizons.
Spirit City's prosperity was not something large cities like Heaven Dou City and Star Luo City could compare with.
"Ah Yuan, you're finally back."
"However, it seems you've also brought us back a new sister."
The instant Yun Yuan returned, Gu Yuena, who was inside Spirit City, was the first to sense it.
