Slaying the Time Beast

Hua Qiang checked his Slaughter Points, then stumbled, nearly straining his back.

There are a whopping 200 million points.

Without saying anything more, he immediately exchanged 20 million Blood Qi Value points, and his cultivation level directly reached the Immortal Emperor Second Level.

If other cultivators knew about this, they would definitely be heartbroken and would just go find a place to hang themselves.

Entering the Immortal King Realm and wanting to advance further is extremely difficult. Many people spend their entire lives stuck at the Immortal King Ninth Heaven, sighing in despair.

Let alone the Immortal Emperor Realm?

To advance even a small step in the Immortal Emperor Realm requires a massive accumulation of resources and a profound understanding of the laws of heaven and earth to break through the barriers and successfully advance.

Nine out of ten people would stop and not move forward, which shows how difficult it is; it's as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Hua Qiang just a couple of easy taps, how are the others supposed to survive?

Because Hua Qiang undergoing the Lightning Tribulation, the originally pervasive fog had now completely dissipated, and the mountains, rivers, lakes, and vegetation in the distance were clearly visible.

At this moment, Hua Qiang was in a basin, which was wide and open.

Hua Qiang couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation, because after killing so many Void Beasts, the corpses should have piled up like mountains and the blood should have flowed like rivers.

At this moment, however, there was nothing there, as if those Void Beasts had never existed. It was just that the elements in the air were incredibly dense and extremely active.

Why are the carcasses of those animals dismembered and then returned to nature?

Hua Qiang merely had this thought in his mind, then chuckled self-deprecatingly, wondering if his idea was too bizarre.

Looking around, I have no idea where I can get out of this place.

Hua Qiang sent his three Clone out in three different directions to search, since they couldn't possibly stay here forever.

After flying around for a long time without finding any Teleportation Array arrays or other mechanisms, Hua Qiang stopped and then slapped his forehead.

I'm so stupid. I'm sitting right in front of a treasure trove and I don't even know how to use it. Isn't there the Life Divine Tree? That can build a world-sharing network.

Just as he was about to contact Xiao Ling and ask her to see him out, a sense of unease crept into his mind again.

Something's up!

Hua Qiang immediately spread his Spiritual Sense outwards; this thing was more effective than his eyes.

That is...

Hua Qiang's pupils contracted sharply. A thousand meters ahead, on a giant obsidian rock, lay a terrifying creature.

It was a Time Beast, the size of three adult Tyrannosaurus Rex.

The dark purple scales are adorned with starlight patterns resembling the Milky Way, and each scale edge shimmers with a faint blue quantum halo.

Six bone-bladed limbs were curled up beneath its body, and seven gear-shaped Spacetime Core floated around its neck, emitting fragmented light spots with each breath.

When it opened its lantern-sized vertical pupils, Hua Qiang clearly saw countless intersecting timelines churning deep within the pupils, and a chilling killing intent was projected onto him as if it were a tangible substance.

"Holy crap!"

Hua Qiang couldn't help but swear.

Time Beast!

It turned out to be Time Beast, one of the most dangerous predators in the universe.

They can manipulate the flow of time, trapping their prey in an eternal moment or accelerating their aging.

Before he could draw his sword and make a move, the Time Beast suddenly stood up, raised its head, and the Spacetime Core on its neck burst forth with dazzling light.

Hua Qiang felt as if the world had suddenly become distorted and deformed.

The originally swift hand-raising motion became like sludge in sticky resin, and the sound of the Thunderclap Blade being drawn out of its sheath was prolonged into a tooth-grinding buzz.

He saw the Time Beast raise its forelimbs, its claws tearing through the air and leaving afterimages on his retina.

The claws were incredibly fast, and the attack was imminent. Hua Qiang tried his best to dodge, but his movements were terrifyingly slow, even despairing.

The cracks in the ground stretched out like a slow-motion video, and the flying gravel floated in the air, refracting various lights.

Sweat rolled down his forehead, but condensed into glistening water droplets in mid-air.

He twisted his neck with difficulty, each movement like a struggle against an invisible force of gravity.

The Time Beast's attack was like a guillotine hanging high, and the oppressive feeling of death made his heart tremble.

Damn it!

He had never fought a battle against such a bunch of cowards before.

"This damned Time Prison must be broken..."

Hua Qiang bit his tongue, and the moment the taste of blood exploded in his mouth, the Dao Sword appeared in his hand.

Before undergoing his tribulation, the Dao Sword absorbed too much lightning energy. Hua Qiang stored it in the Universe Cauldron, used the Life Divine Water to regulate it, and added some rare materials to upgrade it.

With the appearance of the Dao Sword, the suppression of the Time Beast on Hua Qiang suddenly eased, and his control over his body also increased significantly.

A violent spatial-temporal tremor swept through like a hurricane, causing the distorted spacetime to tremble. The Time Beast let out a dissatisfied roar, and its attack speed suddenly increased...

[Prediction]!

Hua Qiang activated his Prediction, and the attack trajectory of the Time Beast became clear in his eyes.

Moreover, Hua Qiang knew exactly where the opponent's attack would land, and could even clearly grasp its subsequent trajectory.

With a swing of his Dao Sword, a Sword Qi carrying lightning and destruction struck a certain spot.

And the leg, wrapped in a bone blade, of the Time Beast seemed to be delivered to it automatically.

The Sword Qi slashed at the joint, and with a crack, a section of his leg was severed.

Aww—

The Time Beast let out a miserable cry and its body retreated violently. The speed was as if Time Acceleration, and it traveled several thousand meters in the blink of an eye.

"You bastard! You actually cut off one of my legs! I will skin you alive, tear you apart, cut you into a thousand pieces, and chop you into mincemeat!"

"I will slaughter your entire family! No, I will capture them and enslave them. I will enslave 100,000 of them!"

"Ouch! My leg is broken! I've never suffered such a loss before! You two-legged worm, die!"

The Time Beast was spewing profanities, which surprised Hua Qiang. The Time Beast kept talking and babbling incoherently, yet he could understand it. Could it be that he had a talent for languages?

The Time Beast used Time Acceleration again, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of Hua Qiang.

Hua Qiang felt the same suffocating feeling he had experienced before, as if he were trapped in a quagmire, clearly because the other party had used Time Deceleration on him.

Fortunately, he activated his Prediction, and with the Supreme Divine Dao Sword in his hand, he weakened the Time Beast's restriction on him.

Hua Qiang exerted all his strength, Dao Sword suddenly appeared at a node along the path of the Time Beast.

Pfft!

The Time Beast, as if courting death, automatically delivered itself to the door, then had a close encounter with the Dao Sword, which cleaved it in two with a single strike.

Even though its body was covered in armor and its legs were wrapped in sharp blades, all of this was as fragile as paper in front of the indestructible Dao Sword, offering no defense whatsoever.

Thump!

Thump!

The Time Beast's massive body crashed to the ground, then convulsed twice before finally dying unwillingly.

At this moment, Hua Qiang was stunned, as the voice in his mind startled him.
