<h4>Chapter 1150: Foundation of the True Mantra Sect</h4>


    Patriarch Miro was able to fly countless times faster than Han Li, and it didn''t take long before he had covered tens of millions of kilometers.


    However, the golden space was so enormous that there was still no end in sight.


    After flying onward for a while longer, Patriarch Miro suddenly descended in front of a giant, golden mountain down below.


    The mountain reached all the way up into the clouds, obscuring half of the entire sky up ahead, as if it were a gargantuan, golden beast that was resting on its haunches.


    The entire mountain was giving off rays of golden light, and every single rock was giving off timew power fluctuations, which culminated into an all-epassing wave that filled the entire area.


    Before Han Li even had a chance to find some stable footing, a burst of indescribablew power fluctuations immediately surged toward him, causing him to stumble back a few steps before steadying himself.


    He then cast an astonished gaze toward the golden mountain up ahead as he eximed, "Are those rocks all Xumi Star Rocks?"


    As a cultivator of thews of time, he was well-versed in all materials that contained timew powers, so he was able to determine that this mountain was entirely formed by a time-attribute material called the Xumi Star Rock.


    Xumi Star Rocks were an extremely precious type of time-attribute material that was said to arise in the boundless space beyond the True Immortal Realm, and just a small piece of the material could fetch a very high price, let alone an entire, giant mountain''s worth.


    "This Golden Xumi Mountain was secured from beyond the True Immortal Realm by the eleventh master of the True Mantra Sect, Daoist Master Tian Shi, and it''s the center of the True Mantra Profound Domain," Patriarch Miro introduced.


    "As expected of a sect that''s able to contend with the Heavenly Court," Han Li praised in a heartfelt manner.


    At this point, the flow of time had already elerated to hundreds of times faster than the outside world.


    Han Li couldn''t help but wonder how the True Mantra Sect had been able to aplish this. If he could replicate these conditions, then he would essentially have hundreds of times more time to cultivate than everyone else, and that was truly a very alluring prospect.


    "Come with me," Patriarch Miro said with a smile as he proceeded onward.


    There was only a single building in the area, namely a giant pce situated at the foot of the golden mountain. The pce was also entirely constructed from Xumi Star Rocks, and it was extremely resplendent and majestic, but there were no ques or anything simr at the entrance, so it was unclear what was inside.


    The pce gates were tightly shut, and there was a 卍 symbol on each gate. [1]


    Patriarch Miro strode over to the pce, and ayer of golden light appeared over the palms of his hands as he pressed them against the pair of 卍 symbols.


    The pce gates instantly began to glow with dazzling, golden radiance, and four golden deity projections emerged within it.


    The first deity was an imposing, square-faced man in a suit of golden armor, wielding a giant ax in one hand and a huge shield in the other.


    The second deity had a golden beak in the ce of a mouth and eight golden wings on their back. There was also a crystalline, golden crow on their head, what was most peculiar of all was that they had three legs.


    The third deity was an adorable and chubby little girl with a pair of short and stubby wings on her back and a bright halo above her head. She was holding a small, golden bow that was nocked with an arrow with a heart-shaped tip, as if it were a children''s toy.


    The final deity was a beautiful woman with six arms that were holding a selection of musical instruments, namely a guqin, a bianzhong, a vertical flute, a pipa, a bell, and a war drum, all of which were producing pleasant music.


    As soon as the four deities appeared, they immediately turned to Patriarch Miro with wary and forbidding looks on their faces.


    Patriarch Miro began to chant an incantation, and countless golden runes surged out of his mouth before fusing into the bodies of the four deities.


    Only then did the enmity in their eyes gradually recede, and they backed away to stand on either side of the gates, which slowly swung open.


    Patriarch Miro gestured for Han Li toe with him, then led the way into the pce, and Han Li duly obliged.


    Beyond the pce gates was a spacious hall that was thousands of feet in size. There were dense, golden patterns engraved onto the ground at the center of the hall, forming an extremely massive andplex array.


    Bright, golden light and golden runes were emanating from all parts of the array, but they were all restricted within the array, with none of them escaping beyond the array''s boundaries.

    Two stone pirs were standing beside the array, one white and one golden, and these two pirs had also been forged from Xumi Star Rocks.


    The golden pir was inseparably connected to the ground and riddled with me-shaped golden runes, while the white stone pir was etched with silver runes, and there was a ck hole that was shing with ck light above it.


    One Immortal Origin Stone after another was flying out of the ck hole, forming an endless stream that was constantly flowing into the golden array before disintegrating into balls of pure immortal spiritual power that fused into the array.


    At the same time, bursts of fiery, golden light were also emanating from the golden stone pir, injecting bursts of timew powers into the array.


    With this continuous influx of immortal spiritual power and timew powers, the array began to operate, and head-sized balls of golden light flew out from within, giving off bursts of formidable timew power fluctuations as they rose up into the air.


    Hovering above the golden array was a golden te that was riddled withplex patters, and at its center was a thumb-sized bulge, protruding out of which was a golden needle.


    The balls of golden light surged into the te, and the golden needle began to rapidly spin.


    Rings of golden light were emanating from the golden te before vanishing into the nearby space, and Han Li''s eyes widened slightly with astonishment at the sight before him.


    What he was astonished by was the discovery that this array was the source of the elerated flow of time in the entire True Mantra Profound Domain.


    To put it more urately, it was the golden te above the array.


    The other factor contributing to Han Li''s astonishment was that this te was the very same one that he had obtained from the True Mantra Sect ruins.


    "As I''m sure you''ve already noticed, the flow of time in the True Mantra Profound Domain is different from that of the outside world, and the reason for that is this Heavenly Wheel Sundial. This sundial has the ability to alter the rate of flow of time, and it''s the reason why our True Mantra Sect has been able to be as powerful as it is today," Patriarch Miro introduced.


    With this domain at the True Mantra Sect''s disposal, its disciples could cultivate dozens, even hundreds of times faster than everyone else, so it was no wonder that the sect had be so powerful.


    "This Heavenly Wheel Sundial is truly an extraordinary treasure, but it seems like a huge amount of Immortal Origin Stones and timew powers are required to support it. On top of that, this array also appears to be quite remarkable," Han Li remarked.


    "This array is called the Celestial Time Array, and it''s one of the ten most powerful ancient arrays. Only with this array can the Heavenly Wheel Sundial be used. It''s also true that a tremendous amount of resources is required to support the sundial''s operation.


    “The Immortal Origin Stones aren''t the problem, but the constant stream of timew powers is rather difficult toe by. Thankfully, this Golden Xumi Mountain contains near-boundless timew powers, so it''s perfect for supporting the Heavenly Wheel Sundial," Patriarch Miro exined.


    Han Li''s heart sank slightly upon hearing this.


    Creating this domain had clearly been quite a difficult task even for the True Mantra Sect, so the chances of him being able to use the Heavenly Wheel Sundial on his own were slim to none.


    "One thing worth noting is that if the Heavenly Wheel Sundial is made to alter the flow of time in a huge area like the entire True Mantra Profound Domain, then it''ll require an astronomical amount of resources to support it, but that requirement bes much less if you only want to alter the flow of time in a small area," Patriarch Miro remarked in a meaningful manner, and Han Li''s expression stiffened slightly upon hearing this.


    It felt to him like Patriarch Miro was telling him because he already knew that the Heavenly Wheel Sundial would fall into his hands someday.


    "Come, there''s more to be seen deeper in the pce," Patriarch Miro said as he led the way forward again, and Han Li followed along with slightly furrowed brows.


    After making their way around the array in the hall, the two of them continued onward, passing through a long corridor to arrive at a crossroads with two paths ahead, one leading to the left, and the other to the right.


    The path on the right was glowing brightly while giving off bursts of formidablew auras that seemed to belong to powerful immortal treasures, many of which were of the time attribute.


    In contrast, the left path appeared far more unremarkable.


    "On the right is our True Mantra Sect''s treasure vault, where many immortal treasures are kept. Let''s go to the scripture hall on the left first, that''s where our sect''s most precious cultivation arts and secret techniques are kept," Patriarch Miro exined, then led Han Li down the left path into a golden hall that was rectangr in shape.


    A series of grids had been dug into the walls on either side of the hall, and inside each grid was a book or a jade slip, but all of them were sealed behind golden light barriers.


    Next to each grid was a small que that disyed the name of the scripture inside.
