A Daughter's Innate Divine Ability: Time Cage
Pale golden time particles permeated the Space-time Rift, shimmering like flowing stardust in the void.
Hua Sijun lightly raised her hand, and the ancient Phantom Demon Vine transformed into a dark blue-black stream of light, wrapping around a massive pangolin-shaped Time Beast with ghostly speed.
The beast's scales gleamed with a deep blue metallic sheen, and each scale was etched with intricate patterns of time.
Squeak!
The pangolin, its body bound by the demonic vines, panicked and began to twist its body wildly, unleashing the power of spacetime through its scales in an attempt to shatter the restraints.
The Phantom Demon Vine, however, was as agile as a living creature, with hundreds of transparent tentacles probing along the gaps in its scales, and fine runes appearing on its surface.
With a soft "sizzle," the tips of the tentacles transformed into sharp thorns, piercing deep into the flesh of the Time Beast.
The behemoth let out a deafening howl, the spacetime turbulence trembled violently, and the flow of time around it suddenly became disordered, sometimes accelerating and sometimes stopping.
Hua Sijun's beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed, and a sickly flush rose to her fair face.
The blood and flesh essence extracted from the demonic vine was a translucent amber color, and it rapidly ascended along the vine.
These auras, containing the source power of the Time Beast, flowed into her meridians like a gentle stream, gathering into a dazzling ball of light at her dantian.
Her body suddenly froze, like a beautiful jade sculpture, her hair moving without wind, dancing wildly in the turbulent flow of time.
Hua Qiang's pupils contracted sharply, and his breathing became rapid.
He keenly sensed that the Spiritual Qi around his daughter began to surge wildly, forming a huge vortex.
The time particles in the air were forcibly condensed, transforming into silvery chains of time order that snaked across her body like serpents.
These chains of order intertwine, interweave, and rotate, sometimes transforming into an ancient clock face, sometimes into a distorted hourglass, radiating a chilling pressure of time and space.
"Don't move!"
Hua Qiang lowered his voice and warned those around him.
He knew that this was a critical moment for a breakthrough, and any slight disturbance could lead to failure.
Everyone immediately held their breath, and even the Peacock King guarding the side folded its dazzling tail feathers and quietly watched this scene.
Hua Sijun's consciousness was immersed in a Chaos ocean of time and space.
Countless fragments of memories flashed before her eyes: the roars of ancient time-space beasts, fragments of the Law of Time at the beginning of creation, and the cultivation insights of those who controlled the Law of Time throughout history.
This information flooded her mind like a tidal wave, giving her a splitting headache and causing large beads of sweat to roll down her forehead.
Suddenly, a dazzling light exploded in her mind.
She saw the true meaning of time—it is not a simple linear flow, but the interweaving and overlapping of countless lines of time and space.
Every point in time is a coordinate that can be controlled; every stretch of time can be divided and reshaped.
As his understanding deepened, the time order chain on Hua Sijun's body became increasingly solidified.
They began to weave a complex, cage-like structure around her, each chain shimmering with mysterious symbols.
As if sensing the person's breakthrough, the Phantom Vine began to emit a silvery light, resonating with the chain of time order.
The pangolin- Time Beast sensed danger and unleashed its last bit of power.
The spacetime power around it converged wildly, forming a huge time vortex, attempting to engulf everything around it in endless spacetime turbulence.
However, Hua Sijun slowly opened her eyes, her gaze shimmering with a dazzling silver light.
She waved her jade-like hand lightly and chanted an ancient incantation.
In an instant, the Phantom Demon Vine swelled several times over, transforming into a giant net that covered the heavens and the earth, perfectly merging with the time order chain in the sky.
A huge, silver-white cage appeared out of thin air, trapping the Time Beast inside.
The flow of time within the cage began to become disordered, with the Time Beast's speed reaching its limit, causing its movements to slow down; the Time Beast Reversal, nullifying the attack it had just unleashed.
"The Time Prison is complete!"
Hua Qiang clenched his fists excitedly.
This supernatural ability requires not only a profound understanding of the Law of Time, but also the perfect integration of the power of these laws with one's own cultivation techniques.
Hua Sijun succeeded on his first attempt, demonstrating his exceptional talent, which amazed everyone present.
The Time Beast, trapped in the cage, struggled frantically, but no matter how it used its spacetime power, it could not budge the cage in the slightest.
As time went by, its power was gradually absorbed by the cage and transformed into energy that nourished Hua Sijun.
Chu Hua Sijun sat cross-legged in mid-air, constantly guiding these energies to consolidate his newly broken-through realm.
When the last ray of light faded, the Space-time Rift returned to silence.
Hua Sijun landed slowly, emanating a faint but palpable pressure from spacetime.
She gently stroked the Phantom Demon Vine mark on her arm, a confident smile playing on her lips.
This breakthrough not only granted her powerful time-manipulation abilities, but also allowed her to take a solid step forward in the path of time and space.
Hua Sijun jumped into Hua Qiang's arms and said proudly, "Daddy, I've mastered the power of time, aren't I amazing?"
Hua Qiang gently stroked his daughter's head, his eyes filled with doting affection.
"My darling is the most amazing person in the world!"
"Congratulations, little sister!"
Hua Xiaoyao came over, took Hua Sijun's small hand, and looked very happy.
Zi Furong and the other female soldiers frantically flattered their master, sharing in his joy.
Laughter and cheers echoed through the Space-time Rift. Suddenly, the pangolin -Time Beast, trapped in the Time Prison, let out a dying roar.
It emitted a dazzling golden light, and the surging spacetime force beneath its scales seemed about to break free of its cage.
Hua Qiang's eyes narrowed, and he was about to make a move to suppress her when he saw Hua Sijun smile confidently. With a wave of her hand, the runes on the surface of the Time Prison Cage flowed and shone brightly.
The Time Beast's resistance was instantly suppressed, turning into wisps of energy within the cage.
"She truly is my precious daughter!" Hua Qiang smiled and hugged his daughter even tighter, his eyes filled with pride.
Hua Xiaoyao joked, "I won't dare to mess with you anymore, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be trapped in this Time Prison forever."
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
Zi Furong stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Congratulations, Miss, on acquiring such great supernatural power. With the Time Prison now, we'll have an extra layer of protection in this dangerous place."
The other female soldiers echoed the sentiment, and praises rose and fell.
At this moment, the Lightning Thunder Roc circled and cried in the sky, the Peacock King spread its colorful tail feathers, the White Dragon Horse snorted happily, and even the usually calm Rat King was jumping around. The two tigers, Big Fur and Er Second Fur, circled around Hua Sijun and rubbed their heads against the hem of her clothes, as if asking for a reward.
Hua Sijun was infected by everyone's enthusiasm, her face turned red, and she happily said, "Now that we have the Time Prison, I can protect everyone when we encounter danger!"
Hua Qiang looked at his daughter with great satisfaction. From this moment on, his daughter was no longer the little girl who needed to be protected at all times, but a strong person who could stand on her own and protect her companions.
