"Clang!"
A gunshot rang out!
The spear blade spun, slicing through [Guyue Xuyu]'s palm!
The Three-Point Double-Edged Spear broke free from the Abyss's restraints and flew back into the hand of the man who had stepped out of the spatial rift.
[Abyss] frowned and glanced down at the wound on his right hand.
"A mortal body is ultimately just a mortal body."
He flicked the blood off his hands in disgust.
Even if he were forcibly elevated to the level of Quasi-God, his fragile physical structure would still be repulsive.
And in front of the spatial rift.
Jiangnan held a long spear, his body already covered in the [Chaos Form] of the Dragon God Imperial Armor.
The light of the eight elements flowed subtly around him.
To his left was Dusk.
He was doing his best to keep the spatial rift behind him from closing.
To his right is the newly reborn Watcher Scarecrow.
At this moment, half of its body has Fusion with the [Echo Jianmu].
Meanwhile, in the rear, the Elf Queen gripped her staff tightly, her expression tense.
Jiang Li with his hands in his pockets, staring intently at [Guyue Xuyu] opposite him.
With just one glance, she immediately realized that the woman in front of her had already been replaced!
"Dad, be very careful!"
"That guy is no longer Guyue Xuyu."
"It's [the Abyss]..."
"The High God of the Filth Starfield has truly descended upon the Barbaric Realm in person!"
Jiangnan didn't speak, but simply nodded slightly.
He naturally understood just how terrifying the enemy before him was.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have activated [Chaos Form] right away.
"The Dragon God Imperial Armor, formed by the Fusion of the eight Elemental Sequence..."
[Abyss] looked Jiangnan up and down and sneered.
No wonder you beat that piece of trash Naiya to ashes.
"However, now that I'm here, you ant would be better off obediently waiting for your death."
As soon as he finished speaking, [Abyss] raised the Quasi-Divine Artifact in his left hand.
"Come forth, [Death Bow]."
He drew back the bowstring, and a spatial arrow formed from Tribulation Flame and Profound Ice took shape.
"The Finger of Sacred Judgment swept across the sky, erasing five breaths of time..."
"All things return to their origin, cause and effect are re-established..."
"Chronos!"
"Buzz!"
A golden clock appeared behind him, its hands turning backward!
The entire process of the arrow being shot was erased from the river of time at this moment!
In those deleted five seconds, that spatial arrow...
It has already appeared silently in front of Jiangnan's brow!
[Abyss] smirked coldly.
He watched this scene with amusement, waiting for the next moment.
"Even with the eight Elemental Sequence and the Dragon God Imperial Armor, it's impossible to surpass a god."
"With this arrow, you imposter will surely be critically wounded and on the verge of death!"
But...
The instant time resumes its flow!
"When!!"
A sharp clang of metal rang out!
During those five seconds that were deleted, Jiangnan actually raised his arm!
The spear blade sliced violently and precisely into the side of the invisible arrow!
The deadly arrow was deflected by the immense force and pierced the ground at Jiangnan's feet!
"That's impossible!"
[Abyss] lost his composure!
"Even if you possess time-resistance Supernatural Ability, you cannot resist the deletion mechanism of the highest-sequence [Chronos]!"
After a brief moment of shock, [Abyss] came to his senses, his eyes turning grim.
Unless... he predicted in advance that my arrow would land right between my eyebrows!
This guy's body had already made a blocking motion before the time was erased!
Because the mechanism of [Chronos] is a deletion process.
Even during the deleted time, the subject will continue to perform the action they originally intended to do due to inertia!
And just as [Abyss] had thought, Jiangnan had indeed predicted it in advance.
Before he even stepped inside, the Watcher Scarecrow had already told him every single detail about Guyue Xuyu.
"Sequence 001 [Chronos], capable of deleting approximately five seconds."
"At the same time, this Supernatural Ability can ignore most time resistance, and..."
"The cooldown time seems extremely short!"
"This is troublesome."
Jiangnan's hand, gripping the spear, went numb.
Making predictions is essentially no different from gambling with your life.
His ability to successfully predict the opponent's brow once doesn't mean he can always guess the exact spot where the opponent will land.
What if I get hit by an arrow from this Quasi-Divine Artifact, the [Death Bow]?
Even with the Dragon Armor protecting him, he would still end up seriously injured.
So...
We must take down [Chronos] in one fell swoop during his brief cooldown!
"Everyone, provide full cover and restrict His movements!"
Jiangnan's order was concise and to the point.
"Yes!"
The four people behind him responded in unison, unleashing their full fighting power!
"Heh... prediction? Just the death throes of an ant."
"This is just the beginning!"
[Abyss] sneered, raised [Death Bow] again, placed his fingers on the bowstring, and prepared to forcefully draw the bow.
But this time, Jiangnan will absolutely not give Him another chance to launch an attack!
"Buzz!"
Jiangnan's Eye of Mobius on his forehead opened, and the [Chaos Beam] blasted straight at [Abyss]'s face!
At the same time, Dusk clasped his hands together, and a teleportation array appeared beneath Jiangnan's feet.
His body vanished the instant the beam of light shot out.
The next second, it appeared directly behind [Abyss], stabbing straight at its heart!
A pincer attack!
The Elf Queen, who had been hiding in the back, finally revealed her true abilities as the leader of her race!
Her intuition warned her about the possessed woman before her.
They are absolutely the greatest enemy of the entire Elf Clan, and even the entire Barbaric Realm!
"By the Root of the World, life becomes a blade of thorns, Myriad Wood Pierce!"
As soon as she finished speaking, tempered wood began to gather and solidify before her!
And the scent of these trees...
"Boom!"
The nearby Watcher Scarecrow raised its arm, locking onto the Quasi-Divine Artifact in [Abyss]'s hand, and shouted, "Disarm!"
Meanwhile, at the rear, Jiang Li narrowed his eyes and did not immediately rush forward.
She was well aware of the characteristics of her [Fool's ] domain.
If she rashly enters the battlefield, that indiscriminate anti-magic field will be...
Not only will it seal off the Abyss, but it will also disable all of your teammates 'Supernatural Ability!
She must wait for the right opportunity!
Faced with this attack from both sides.
[Abyss] was not alarmed; instead, he let out a cold laugh.
"Is this all the struggle you've put in?"
"Too weak... too weak!"
"Let me show you what the true gaze of a god is like!"
[Abyss] raised its head, and the Demon Eye on its forehead opened once more!
However, unlike last time, the Demon Eye changed color, from red to black!
"All things are illusions!"
"Dust that has fallen to lower dimensions, sink into madness!"
"Cthulhu's Gaze!"
"Buzz!"
A wave of [mental pollution] swept across the entire space!
Almost everyone's actions were interrupted on the spot!
"Aaaaaah! Eyes... countless eyes! Laying eggs in my brain!"
The Watcher Scarecrow's [disarmament] was forcibly terminated.
It clutched its head and rolled on the ground, its red eyes flashing red, clearly on the verge of going berserk!
Jiangnan was filled with countless indescribable hallucinations, and his body froze in mid-air!
But in the next second, his [Dragon Blood] boiled, blocking the mental pollution!
But...
Just because others can withstand it doesn't mean everyone can.
"Pfft!"
The sound of flesh being torn apart rang out from the left side of Jiangnan.
Standing at the edge of a spatial rift in the Dusk, my body stiffened.
Several tentacles were reflected in his eyes.
Those tentacles had already pierced through his entire body.
"Uh... uh..."
"Where am I? How did I get here..."
In the final moments of his life, Dusk regained his senses.
He looked in the direction of Jiangnan, his eyes filled with doubt.
"Bang!"
With a burst of force from the tentacles, Dusk's body exploded, and he died on the spot!
And with the passing of the physical body at Dusk.
"Boom!"
His spatial storage contained gold bricks, as well as [Water of Life] and mountains of [Echo Jianmu].
It exploded and scattered in mid-air!
"Hahahaha! Sequence 047 [Space Master]... This piece of the puzzle is mine!"
[The Abyss] laughed maniacally.
"Now, all I need is the [Death Regression] on that bound sacrifice!"
"Once I obtain it, I can completely complete my authority and ascend to the rank of [God of Time and Space]!"
The Demon Eye of [Abyss] locked onto Jiangnan, who had just escaped mental corruption, its killing intent palpable.
"I'll deal with this ridiculous imposter first, then I'll go to the River of Time..."
"Kill that guard Guard Dog!"
[Abyss] drew his [Death Bow] to its full extent, preparing to fire an arrow at Jiangnan.
But in that split second!
"Pfft!"
A sharp, emerald-green wooden spike pierced through [The Abyss]'s back and into its chest!
"Well!"
The maniacal laughter on [Abyss]'s face froze, and He lowered His head in disbelief.
Looking at the wooden splinter in his chest, he felt the Abyss power within him being purified by this life force.
"This is... the scent of that damned tree?!"
He turned his head and stared at the Elf Queen behind him, who was panting heavily!
No, it should be the staff in her hand!
That was no ordinary thing at all.
It is a divine object crafted from a section of a [World Tree Branch]!
This protective force saved her from madness and allowed her to carry out the betrayal at the crucial moment!
"You dare to injure me... you pointy-eared ant, you're asking for death!!!"
[Abyss] is enraged, and its tentacles are about to tear the Elf Queen to shreds!
"Take this kick!"
In that fraction of a second that [Abyss] was distracted, a figure had already silently closed in on him!
Jiang Li kicked [Abyss] in the face!
"Bang!"
That kick knocked [Demon Eye] off course!
Even more deadly, as Jiang Li approached, the [Fool]'s magic-suppressing domain opened!
"Buzz!"
Within this realm, all phenomena are empty!
The Demon Eye of the [Abyss] was forced to close, and the mental pollution dissipated as a result!
"Here you go!"
Freed from his Suppression, Jiangnan raised his right leg, and chaotic lightning coiled around the top of his foot.
Then came a powerful shot, kicking [Abyss] in the stomach!
"BOOM!!!"
[Abyss] was actually kicked away like a soccer ball by Jiangnan!
He smashed through more than a dozen pieces of Gengjin Divine Iron, finally creating a deep crater!
"Puff!"
In the deep pit, [Abyss] climbed up and vomited several mouthfuls of blood.
He was careless...
He never expected that he, the High God, would be so dignified.
He was actually beaten up by a few ants who didn't even have a divine position!
"Good... very good!"
[Abyss] wiped the Black Blood from the corner of his mouth.
He knew that in the realm of the Fool and before the unreasonable numbers of Jiangnan.
This current physical body doesn't offer any significant advantage.
"But it doesn't matter... I don't have time to waste with ants like you!"
"Once I obtain [Death Regression] and become the God of Time and Space... you will all die!!!"
He forced himself to stand up, risking the backlash, and raised his hand again to activate [Disintegration]!
"Snap!"
A spatial rift was torn open, and [Abyss] plunged into it. The rift closed, and it vanished without a trace!
Jiangnan, gun in hand, was about to give chase.
But seeing the closing crack, he had to stop in his tracks.
It's impossible.
Dusk is dead; the only spatial Supernatural Ability in the team capable of locating spatial rifts is gone.
While the Watcher Scarecrow can also open portals.
But it had just been mentally corrupted and was now clutching its head and going berserk on the ground, making it impossible to communicate with.
"It's over... He got away..."
The Elf Queen asked, "What should we do now?"
"Don't panic!"
Jiang Li's forehead was already beaded with cold sweat.
"That old man's goal is very clear: he wants to absorb the Death Regression and become the God of Time and Space, and then open the River of Time!"
"As long as He enters the River of Time, He can travel to the past and obtain the Death God Sequence that intersects with the Space-Time Sequence!"
"Thus achieving an unprecedented dual divine status!"
"Finally, He will take advantage of your weakest moment, Father, and eliminate you!"
Jiang Li turned to look at Jiangnan: "However... we still have time."
"Because He still exists in the River of Time!"
The father and daughter both knew perfectly well who "[He]" referred to.
Jiang Li looked at Jiangnan, her voice trembling slightly. "Father, do you know what to do next?"
Jiangnan did not answer.
He put away the [Three-Point Double-Edged Spear].
Then, he raised his left hand and summoned the [Human Emperor Lamp].
Looking at the flickering lights, Jiangnan knew that what was about to happen was no longer a simple massacre.
He's going to run a race.
A battle that will determine the fate of the entire world...
A race against River of Time!
Time Rift...
"The Underworld Tree..."
"This... is the culprit behind the forced reincarnation of the boss?!"
Guo Shuai stared intently at the purple tree in front of him.
No wonder.
No wonder even a man as strong as the boss felt helpless.
The stench of pollution emanating from the purplish-black branches.
Even the World Tree, which is also a plant, felt apprehensive.
"World Tree!"
Guo Shuai shouted, "Is there any way to deal with it?!"
"While it has only just emerged from the ground, there must still be a way to destroy it, right?!"
In my mind.
The World Tree fell silent.
It took me a full ten seconds to answer him.
"Have..."
"The source of my power lies in the other side of this Underworld Tree."
"It is the extreme of Yin, and I am the extreme of Yang."
"It brings pollution and destruction."
"And what the World Tree brings is life and creation..."
"Life and death are mutually exclusive, water and fire are incompatible."
"There is only one primitive method to destroy it."
"Just overwhelm it with life force that surpasses its devouring limits!"
"Theoretically... it is possible to defeat them."
Upon hearing this, a light shone in Guo Shuai's dim eyes!
"Then let's do it! Let's crush it now!"
Guo Shuai gritted his teeth and roared impatiently.
"But..."
The World Tree's voice suddenly lowered.
"... But what?"
Guo Shuai's voice trembled, and he subconsciously asked.
"However, to forcibly kill the Underworld Tree, one needs to unleash a torrent of life force in an instant."
"And as the Divine Fetus that bears this power, as the host connecting me to the present world..."
"It is simply impossible to withstand the backlash from such a massive Energy Pour."
"Once you choose to do this, this torrent of life washes away the enemy at the same time."
"It will also take your soul... body..."
"Even ignite every trace of your existence in this world."
"In other words..."
You will die.
"Moreover, it's irreversible... utter annihilation of both body and soul."
