Tong Ming shook his head, "There's no way back. The only way we could have returned was through the God Realm, which was the shattered realm destroyed not long ago. Now that the source of the shattered realm has been destroyed, and the realm itself has turned into meteorites disappearing into the void, the teleportation location to the Seven Realm Stones is even more impossible to exist."

Mo Wuji's face darkened. It seemed that every time he found a teleportation point to the Seven Realm Stones, that place would be destroyed. He wondered if the Great Wilderness Sea of the Immortal Realm had also been destroyed.

Tong Ming sensed Mo Wuji's displeasure and had no choice but to remain silent. In fact, in his heart, he felt that this matter was Mo Wuji's own fault.

If Mo Wuji hadn't been so ruthless, perhaps they could have used the teleportation array one more time before this shattered realm completely fractured.

"Is there no other way?" After pondering for a long time, Mo Wuji knew that this matter couldn't really be blamed on anyone. If there were no other places, relying solely on their spaceship, even with a location, would take countless years, right? Moreover, did they even have a location to go to the God Realm?

Tong Ming said, "It's not like there are no other ways. If we can find the Dark Dao Lord, one of the Four Great Dao Lords, hehe, we can still quickly return to the Realm."

"Why?" Mo Wuji quickly asked.

Tong Ming explained, "The Dark Dao Lord possesses a Creation Treasure called the Years Plate. The Years Plate can return to the God Realm at the fastest speed..."

Mo Wuji interrupted Tong Ming, "Friend Tong Ming, as far as I know, the Years Plate is indeed a Creation Treasure, but its function is to accelerate or decelerate the passage of time, not to affect the rules. What does this treasure have to do with quickly returning to the God Realm?"

Tong Ming chuckled, "That's why the Years Plate is still in the hands of the Dark Dao Lord, and no one has been able to snatch it back. Few people know that the Years Plate cannot be taken."

Hearing this, Mo Wuji vaguely felt that he was entering a conspiracy of the Dark Dao Lord, but he didn't know what the specific conspiracy was.

"I still need to ask Friend Tong Ming for guidance," Mo Wuji said sincerely with cupped fists.

Tong Ming was somewhat puzzled as to why Mo Wuji was so concerned about the Years Plate. However, there was no harm in telling Mo Wuji this knowledge. As for the Years Plate being on Mo Wuji's person right now, even if Tong Ming was ten times more cunning, he wouldn't have imagined it.

Tong Ming seriously explained, "The Years Plate can accelerate cultivation; that's just one of its functions. Secondly, the Years Plate can serve as a top-tier flying treasure. Not only that, but the Years Plate also has the coordinate positions of the endless universe. Once the Years Plate is running at full power, even several Saints combined cannot intercept it."

"Why?" Ji Li asked subconsciously.

Having been crushed by the heavily injured Huan Ti, Ji Li had a deep-seated fear of the combat power of Saints. If several Saints couldn't catch up to the Years Plate, how powerful was it?

Tong Ming sighed and said, "Because the Years Plate, in addition to possessing the coordinate positions of the entire starry universe, also has the speed to traverse time and cross the void. In other words, once the Years Plate is truly controlled, it can break through the limitations of time to traverse the void, which is even more terrifying than a teleportation array. We know that the reason all teleportation arrays can quickly reach their destinations is that they rely on spatial means. But the Years Plate can use the rules of time to traverse spatial distances."

Perhaps people who didn't understand the rules of heaven and earth would be confused by Tong Ming's words, but Mo Wuji's heart was shaken. It could actually use time to traverse spatial distances. Could Saints do that? He had used the Years Plate for so long, yet he didn't know it had this ability.

If he could understand this ability and comprehend this rule, then…

Mo Wuji suddenly became excited. The rules of time were the most difficult to comprehend. Even now that he had entered the Quasi-Saint stage, he had only touched the surface of the rules of time. Even just this little bit made him feel the terror and power of the rules of time.

Tong Ming continued, "The Years Plate has a third characteristic: recall. Now that the Years Plate is in the hands of the Dark Dao Lord, even if Friend Huan Ti were in his prime and snatched the Years Plate back, the Dark Dao Lord could still summon it back. He does this through the rules of time, allowing him to forever control the Years Plate, as long as he doesn't fall. No matter where you put the Years Plate, if the rules there don't exceed the rules of Creation, he can summon it back.

Of course, these are not the most terrifying things about the Years Plate. The most terrifying thing about the Years Plate is the time rule self-destruction. Once the Dark Dao Lord is angered, he can self-destruct with the time Dao principle in the Years Plate. Even Saints can only choose to perish under this time rule self-destruction. Therefore, the strongest of the Four Great Dao Lords on the surface is Golden Pool, but the most terrifying is actually the Dark Dao Lord. The Golden Pool Dao Lord has too many male consorts, and others leave some leeway when fighting with her, so her strength is somewhat exaggerated. The Dark Dao Lord is low-key and truly terrifying."

Mo Wuji gasped, feeling lingering fear in his heart. Fortunately, he met Tong Ming; otherwise, he would have drunk the Dark Dao Lord's foot-washing water without knowing it.

These old bastards, he had to be extra careful when he met them in the future.

"Brother Mo, what should we do now? You tell us," said Lian Ji. His cultivation had just reached the seventh level of God Fusion, and he had witnessed Mo Wuji crushing and killing the imitation Shi Yu and the Golden Pool Dao Lord, so he admired Mo Wuji greatly.

This time, Mo Wuji didn't hesitate at all and said directly, "Friend Huan Ti, Friend Tong Ming, and Friend Lian Ji, you three go to the God Realm as a group, and my Senior Sister and I will go to the God Realm as a group. If anyone finds the correct path first and we can contact each other, then we will immediately join up."

The reason for this grouping was that Mo Wuji didn't want the fact that he possessed the Years Plate to be revealed to people like Huan Ti and Tong Ming. Even if Huan Ti was his family servant, he didn't want to do that. Saints had too many methods. Who knew if Huan Ti could recover his strength and then break through this soul brand?

Ji Li thought of the scene where she and Mo Wuji were hugging each other earlier, and now she had to walk with Mo Wuji again. Her face flushed slightly, and she didn't object.

"Okay, then let's do it that way," Huan Ti said immediately. He, Tong Ming, and Lian Ji had no doubts, because Mo Wuji's grouping made perfect sense.

Mo Wuji's strength was definitely not weaker than Huan Ti and Tong Ming combined. Now that Mo Wuji was taking Ji Li as a group, and Tong Ming and Huan Ti were taking Lian Ji as a group, it couldn't be more normal.

As for whether Mo Wuji and Ji Li were Dao companions, it didn't matter at all.

"Since that's the case, then everyone should leave now and strive to return to the God Realm as soon as possible." Mo Wuji sacrificed his flying treasure, separated from Ji Li and the other three, and quickly merged into the vast void.

...

As soon as the spaceship rushed into the void, Mo Wuji had Ji Li control the spaceship, and he immediately entered the Mortal Realm.

After learning that the Years Plate could be summoned back by the Dark Dao Lord, how dare Mo Wuji take out the Years Plate? Although putting it in the Mortal Realm didn't seem safe either, it was better than taking it out.

After entering the Quasi-Saint stage, the Mortal Realm had completely formed a brand new world. There was no trace of the original shadow. The spatial atmosphere was refreshing, and the clear rules of heaven and earth were suitable for everyone to cultivate here.

Mo Wuji was not in the mood to look at these. He quickly grabbed the Years Plate in his hand, and his divine sense penetrated into it.

As before, his divine sense still couldn't penetrate into the Years Plate at all.

Mo Wuji knew that refining the Years Plate or controlling it would definitely not be so easy and simple. If it were really that easy, then the Years Plate would not have remained in the hands of the Dark Dao Lord all along.

A few drops of essence blood fell on the Years Plate, and Mo Wuji's divine sense followed the essence blood and penetrated down, but he could still only feel a chaotic grayness, without any clue.

He had found twelve divine sense imprints of Bitter Heart Man, painstakingly left by the Dark Dao Lord, in the Years Plate, and he thought he had completely cleared the traces of Bitter Heart Man. After listening to Tong Ming's words, Mo Wuji clearly realized that those twelve imprints were likely set up by Bitter Heart Man to confuse him.

He had known for a long time that these guys would not be so simple, but he almost fell for it. He could only blame himself for being too careless.

The divine sense of the Storage Channel and the divine sense of the sea of consciousness penetrated into the Years Plate again and again. Even if he was blocked again and again, Mo Wuji did not give up.

If the Years Plate's abilities were really as Tong Ming said, then this Years Plate was too important to him.

Whether it was essence blood, divine sense of the sea of consciousness, divine sense of the Storage Channel, or spiritual eyes, Mo Wuji had used them countless times, but unfortunately, he couldn't even find an entrance to refine the Years Plate, let alone refine it.
