Chapter 800 - Reverse Time Flow
These three men were indeed the spies of the East Imperial Continent. They received the order via message secret transformation in the afternoon. The Nine Thearch Clans ordered to kill Jiang Yi at all costs. There couldn’t be an Art Emperor in Sin Island. When they knew the identity of Jiang Yi just now, they didn’t hesitate.
They belonged to different clans and were all Suicide Guards. They all decided to act at this moment as it was now or never. The Situ clansmen were going to take Jiang Yi to the Situ Residence, where those old guys were—those who were able to slaughter even three hundred men… let alone three people.
They were very clever to pretend to be the Lu Clansmen and successfully made many martial experts suspicious and restrain themselves from taking actions. They were not planning to survive together. Their sacrifice would be worthwhile if they could take down Jiang Yi. Their descendants would enjoy endless glory and wealth as long as the Nine Thearch Clans stayed on.
“Die—!”
The eyes of a skinny old man holding a Spiritual Connecting cardinal treasure were filled with madness. He accidentally got a pseudo-divine artifact in the past and managed to achieve spiritual connections. As he was certain that he would die now, naturally, he didn’t hide his strength. His golden wheel swirled and rushed to Jiang Yi with an aura of destroying everything. He believed that as long as it could hit Jiang Yi, he would certainly die even with the Fire Cloud Armor!
Thirty-three kilometers, 15 kilometers, 1.5 kilometers!
The radiance in the elder with the golden wheel was frighteningly bright. The other two men let out a trace of the ugly smile, too. Jiang Yi was shocked by the space; he was like a small boat in the heavy storm and was absolutely unable to perform Heaven Evasion. Huangfu Taotian’s attack was going to appear in the spatial zone, which was very likely to end the life of one person. The elders of the Situ Clan had realized this, too; they were going to attack now. However, it was too late now!
“Jiang Yi bastard! Young Master Fei asked me to send his greetings to you!”
The brawny man, who shot the crossbow, showed a look of delight and burst out shouting. The space around him oscillated slightly. A flash of the sword pierced the spatial zone and appeared. It radiated with colors of a rainbow with bolts of lightning sparkling and black forces of destruction. This was the strongest attack of Huangpu Taotian—the Five Elements dao patterns Thunderbolt Shadow.
The brawny man was well aware that he couldn’t stop it, closed his eyes, and was ready to die. It was worthwhile with Jiang Yi dying with him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Wu-Wu!
The golden wheel whizzed over, carrying the space oscillation and screeches. Jiang Yi stared at the cold light and smelled death. He sighed secretly in his heart. Yi Chan really didn’t lie to him. In the world outside, whoever kept a high profile had to die.
“No…”
Huangfu Taotian continued to rush forward. The Thunder Chasing Sword flashed with lightning again and was about to release the ‘Thunderbolt Shadow’. As he watched the golden wheel sprinting to Jiang Yi, he shrieked in despair. He hadn’t spent a lot of time with Jiang Yi, but he felt that Jiang Yi was his brother. Right now, he watched Jiang Yi dying and couldn’t do anything about it. It was imaginable how painful Huangfu Taotian’s heart was.
“Hmph!”
Just at this moment, a cold snort sounded in the sky. It was not very loud, but it made everyone’s soul spirit shiver. The sky changed its color, and the air-piercing sound reverberated throughout the field. Swiftly after that, a huge finger suddenly appeared and slowly extended to the ground below.
It was an old man’s finger. It was actually not very big, but everyone’s attention was fixed on it. It appeared that it was not moving very fast, but it was at the spatial zone above Jiang Yi and the others in a blink of an eye.
Buzz!
The finger caused the space to ripple as if it tapped on the calm water.
Then, a mystical scene occurred.
That golden wheel even started to fly back, and so did the crossbow behind it. Jiang Yi’s body was still wriggling in the sky, but the sturdy man’s closed eyes were open at this moment. Half of the Thunderbolt Shadow was withdrawn. Huangfu Taotian returned via the original route, too.
Right now, it seemed like the tap caused things to be played backward. Everything was turned back. However, everyone’s mind was extremely clear. They could feel what happened around them.
“Seven-star dao pattern, reverse time flow!”
Huangfu Taotian’s eyes were extremely bright, and he laughed wildly. Situ Yixiao below him trembled with excitement. Situ Yinian’s eyes were clouded with disbelief. Of course, there were many more people beneath who were deeply shocked, more physically and mentally.
Reverse Time Flow!
It was the most powerful dao pattern of the Lei Clan Head—the most powerful martial expert in the Gods Bestow Tribe. This dao pattern was unanimously recognized to be invincible in the tribe. If time could be reversed, then who would be able to kill the Lei Clan Head?
Chi! Chi!
That finger suddenly disappeared in the sky and was replaced by an aged hand, which slowly approached the Elder with the golden wheel. It seemed like a small chicken was clutched in an ordinary hand. The Elder with the golden wheel couldn’t even resist and was easily grabbed. The hand moved slightly, and the Elder turned into a pile of ashes, leaving a harrowing scream behind.
Chi! Chi!
The hand was swayed again and grabbed the other two people. Again, they were easily lifted up before… being squashed to ashes.
It was so quiet that everyone could hear themselves breathing!
Everyone was stunned and looked at the aged hand. A terrified and irresistible image would emerge in everyone’s head. It seemed like a hand of a god, and nobody could resist its advance. Everyone could be crushed into ashes.
“He can even reverse time and kill upper-tier Heaven Monarchs as he pleased?! Isn’t he an existence that was infinitely close to a god?”
Jiang Yi swallowed his saliva, and his blood felt like boiling. This skill was almost invincible. The person who possessed such a skill was indeed indefinitely close to a god. It was the Demigod Realm!
“People of the East Imperial Continent, listen up. Tell your masters that if they want to fight, play the game fair and square. Don’t use these small embarrassing tricks. It brings disgrace to the Nine Thearchs. People in the Gods Bestow Tribe are our people. Whoever dares to mess around will be executed without further questions!”
An old voice sounded, and the hand disappeared as well. He was not very loud, but it made everyone was very excited. Tens of thousands of onlookers—including Situ Yixiao and Huangfu Taotian—all genuflected with left hand on their chests, paying the utmost respect. They were saluting to one of the guardians of the Gods Bestow Tribe and to the absolute master of martial dao.
Jiang Yi stabilized his body and made a bow reverently. However, he was secretly surprised. The Lei Clan was so embarrassed because of him, but this Lei Clan Head actually saved his life?!
“Senior Lei!”
The peace was abruptly disrupted by a deep shouting. Huangfu Taotian suddenly opened his mouth. “Excuse me… is it really possible for one to break the spatial zone and ascend as a god in this world?”
Many people were slightly surprised but understood why he did this after thinking about it for a while. Even when Huangfu Taotian was still in the Huangfu Clan, he was definitely not qualified to see his Clan Head. After all, in the beginning, Huangfu Taotian’s status in his clan was quite low. Right now, he finally got the chance to see the absolute martial expert in the tribe. He naturally didn’t want to waste the opportunity.
The Lei Clan Head didn’t answer Huangfu Taotian’s question right away. Instead, he waited for a minute before saying, “The martial dao is as difficult as ascending to the sky. The unlucky ones will remain mortal, the lucky one will reach the phenomenal stage. Whether one will become god or devil is decided on the spur of the moment. The path forward is treacherous, but we should thunder past the sky and ascend to heaven! Young man from the Huangfu Clan, these are the words left by the late Mystic Thearch. Deliberate on your own…”
Buzz!
The eyes of Huangfu Taotian, Jiang Yi, and many other Young Masters were instantly as bright as the stars. The Lei Clan Head didn’t deny the possibility of ascension, which meant that everyone had the chance to become the next Mystic Thearch.
