First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System - Chapter 464

Chapter 464: Astonishing News
Orion looked slightly bewildered hearing Continuum’s words, he couldn’t help but ask, “Why? I thought that’s what this place was for.”

Continuum thought for a second while rubbing his chin and said, “Well, what you think is not wrong. And I’m not too sure about it either. I only know that we can’t breakthrough here for some reason. Others have speculated some reasons though.”

“What reasons?” Orion asked with a slightly dejected tone.

Continuum’s expression turned serious and he said, “There are various theories, some speculate that Lord Wukong didn’t want the inheritors to become shrinking turtles who cultivate here all the time. After all, from the various records we have read, he was a valiant warrior.”

“Another theory is that, due to the extreme passage of time, some Rules have become incomplete in the inheritance ground, making breakthrough here impossible. There are many more reasons but these are the most popular.”

Hearing his words, Orion fell into deep thought, he also agreed with the first speculation, after all powerhouses can’t be created in greenhouses. If a person hasn’t weathered wind and rain, how can he withstand the storm?

And Wukong leaving behind such a grand inheritance ground, there must be a reason, otherwise he wouldn’t waste so much effort into it.

After thinking all these things through, Orion heaved a sigh and nodded, “What you say makes sense. Then I can only hone my techniques and spells here while learning new things.”

Continuum nodded his head in agreement, “You should spend more time here. Since you are young, you have a lot of lifespan to waste. Since your lifespan will increase after reaching Exalted Grade. And if the second speculation is right, then the Rules might get affected more during this time.”

Orion looked at him in confusion, “What do you mean by this? The Rules haven’t changed for so long, why would they change now?”

Continuum looked at Orion deeply and slowly said, “Some great powers in my world have said that the Chiliocosm has reached the extreme number of Epochs. It is now the Ninth Epoch, and they have speculated that it will also be the final Epoch. The most likely outcome will be the death of all living beings and cosmic structures.”

Orion’s face changed greatly, he directly shouted, “Impossible. How can this happen just when I started cultivating??”

Continuum’s lips twitched, “You think you are the only one feeling this way? I’m young and vigorous like a bull, I don’t even have a wife yet. You think I want to die? But those great powers of my world have indeed felt the changes in the Rules of our Chiliocosm. Then I asked some other bastards from other Chiliocosms to confirm with their elders and they also gave similar answers.”

Orion’s expression turned grave hearing his words, he felt like the world was playing a big joke on him. He had just arrived here and the destruction was imminent.

How was he supposed to play this game? The game master directly decided to delete the game.

He took a deep breath and asked, “Is there anything else I should know?”

Continuum stroked his chin again and looked at Orion with an interested gaze, “Well, have you thought about marrying and living a peaceful life?”

Orion: “…”

He really felt like slapping the bastard. He was serious here asking for other information and he was still joking.

Continuum, feeling Orion’s dark gaze, coughed slightly, “Cough, anyways, there is still time before it happens. But the great change already started. And it started roughly a year ago. If nothing else changes then you still have a long time. You might even die of old age before anything major happens. After all, an Epoch is an unimaginably long time, even millions of years is just a blink of an eye if we look at the entire timeline of an Epoch.”

Even though Continuum’s words were comforting, Orion didn’t feel much better about it. He heard a key piece of information, the changes started roughly a year ago, just when he was born in this world.

And through the intense and vast amount of knowledge he had gained from reading hundreds of webnovels, he knew it wouldn’t end just at that. The time he would have wouldn’t be long.

He paused slightly, “What did you mean by I should spend more time here? I can’t breakthrough her— Wait do you think this place will also be affected by the changes?”

Continuum nodded his head, “Yeah, the time effects of this place might be gone soon. I can feel the changes of time in this place, it is subtly being affected. So you should make the best use of this place for as long as possible.”

Orion couldn’t help but feel like someone was targeting him purposely. Trying to stifle him before he could grow fully.

‘No, how can I, this prodigy, fall before even growing up? I must put double or rather hundreds of times more effort in training now.’ He inwardly muttered to himself.

Seeing Continuum’s face, which looked both bored and filled with laziness, his lips curled up. He looked at Orion with a half smiling face and put a hand on his shoulder, “My good brother, you wouldn’t mind helping your good brother here right?”

Continuum felt something was amiss seeing Orion’s expression, he hurriedly took a step back, “No, my mom is calling me. I’m going.” But before he could use the Golden Headband to leave, a sudden fist reached his chest.

BOOM!!

He was sent flying by Orion outside the second zone, directly landing on the floating clouds outside. He softly landed on the ground, the mana barrier on his chest fading as he dusted his chest, “You brat, you want to spar with me? You think I’m afraid of you?”

He also unsheathed his sword and utilized his peak Advanced Grade Sword Aura as nine Astral Swords floated beside him.

Orion calmly looked at Continuum, his thoughts quite calm at this moment, ‘If I can’t breakthrough here, then I need to enhance my strength some other way, and the best way to strengthen myself is through combat.’

Orion rapidly approached him and said with a smile, “This is beneficial to you as well. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to become my sparring partner. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of you.”

Continuum’s lips curled into a sneer as he fully released his cultivation base. Eighth Grade Mana Cultivation and Eighth Grade Physical Cultivation. “Looks like I need to teach you, brat, some manners. You should be respectful of your elders.”

“Elders?” Orion looked at him with a weird gaze, “Alright Uncle Continuum, I will respectfully beat you up next.”

Despite his mocking words, he was unprecedentedly serious while facing Continuum. The pressure emanating from him far surpassed all the Tier 9 individuals he had faced until now.

He knew he had pretty much no chance of winning here even with his Dragon form, but this was precisely the type of pressure he wanted to push himself further. And moreover, he also planned to further increase his abilities in various weapons, since he had the opportunity to use this time dilating place, then he would use it to the fullest.

Seeing the commotion on this side, everyone who was leisurely sitting in the second zone came to this side and gathered outside the second zone looking at Orion and Continuum with interest.

Battles like this were not uncommon here, but battles between top 10 powerhouses of this zone were rare. Despite so, not all were much interested in that, after all, the top 10 were decided on their potential, not on their current strength.

There were a lot of Tier 9 individuals among the group here. But regardless, everyone was free to come watch the ‘show’ since they were free here to waste time. And who knows, they might gain something after watching the battle.

Orion unsheathed his two swords and smiled strangely, “I have learned a few elements, I was wondering how to quickly raise the Sword Aura of those elements, now… hehehe, Uncle Continuum, your dear nephew won’t be polite with you.”

He dashed towards Continuum while his dual swords were covered with bloody mana.

Continuum’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, “Elementary Grade Blood Sword Aura? Hmm, that’s quite disappointing.”

Orion smashed the sword from above on Continuum’s head while shouting, “You won’t be so disappointed soon.”

Continuum raised his sword with one hand and blocked his one sword while his hand radiated with faint glow as Orion felt a faint sense of repulsion from his hand.

Boom!

A huge repulsion threw Orion back a few miles directly, he flipped his body mid air and landed on the ground, skidding backward. He raised his hand and looked at Continuum with surprise, “Gravity? Haha perfect, I wanted to learn more about this element. But I couldn’t find someone strong enough to fight with me that has this element.”

Continuum looked at Orion seriously, “Since you want to learn about Gravity, let me teach you some things.”

Orion paused hearing this, he stood up in his place and listened attentively to him.
