The grayish-white Wither-Glory Belt shrouded the entire border of the Ancient Kingdom of the Time Ruins, like a phantom city wall guarding the once magnificent civilization.
Legend had it that this was the "Time Curse," cast by the Time Empress at the cost of her own life.
The five armies that had stormed the capital suffered countless casualties, all becoming trapped by the Wither-Glory Belt, unable to escape.
In the end, they all died within the curse as their lifespans withered away completely.
Even now, any living creature or departing spirit that dared to enter the Wither-Glory Belt would have their lifespan eroded by the power of the curse.
Only when the Wither-Glory Belt entered a weak cycle could those from the outside enter, and only by holding the Divine Order of the Time Ruins to resist the Time Curse.
Even so.
Those who ventured into the ancient kingdom would still lose a portion of their lifespan.
The higher their cultivation, the more lifespan they would lose.
At this moment, Li Weiyi and Chang Yujian were talking about this very matter.
"With our cultivation at the First Realm, going in and out once should cost us about three years of lifespan in total."
