Resurrection Failure
Silence, a deathly silence.
Even though Venerable Shihuo represented the Giant Axe Dojo, he was speechless upon seeing this situation. What could he say? Everything in the scene was clearly displayed before his eyes. To put it bluntly, Venerable Shihuo hoped that the King Luanyu was doing these things because he was Soul Control of Alien Race!
After a long silence, Venerable Shihuo finally spoke under pressure, "This is indeed a negative consequence caused by the problems within my Giant Axe Dojo! I will report to the Martial Arena's higher-ups, request the authority to resurrect Lu Yan'an, and provide him with compensation!"
Beings at the Universe Master or higher can Reverse Time and Space, causing it to flow backward and returning to the timeline before the target was resurrected, effectively pulling them back. Of course, "Reverse Time and Space" is extremely difficult, and it violates the Universe Operating Laws, resulting in backlash and a price to pay.
Moreover, Reverse Time and Space itself is very difficult, and this move is not "invincible." It doesn't mean that everyone who dies can be resurrected. Just like "Kedi," the disciple of the City Lord of Chaos in the original work, he was ultimately reduced to a state where he could not be resurrected by Reverse Time and Space due to the careful planning of the Zerg powerhouses!
"This is your duty!" Venerable Youhou snorted coldly. His own junior brother had been assassinated on his home planet by a Feng Wang expert from the Giant Axe Dojo, a powerhouse belonging to the pinnacle of human races! If he said this, he would probably be laughed to death by other Alien Race.
And most importantly, this assassination attempt succeeded without anyone noticing! This is a disgrace to humanity; if the truth were to leak out, we'd be condemned to the core.
"Most importantly, you must investigate this thoroughly when you get back! I don't want this to happen again!" Even knowing that Lu Yan'an could be resurrected, Venerable Youhou didn't press the matter further. This was because the Giant Axe Founder of the Giant Axe Dojo and the actual head of the Virtual Universe Company, the City Lord of Chaos, had a close relationship and were known as the "Twin Pillars" of the human race. Otherwise, given Venerable Youhou's temper, he would have definitely caused a huge uproar!
"Understood!" Perhaps because he understood Venerable Youhou's personality, Venerable Shihuo dared not be the slightest bit presumptuous in front of him. Venerable Youhou's current status was equivalent to that of the Lord of Tian Shi Palace in the human race. Even the most talented Venerable were nothing compared to him!
The Venerable Youhou, who is only half a step away from Universe Master, is comparable to a first-tier Universe Master in terms of combat power. Venerable like Venerable Shihuo are basically easy to kill in front of him.
"Go!" Seeing that Venerable Shihuo had nothing more to say, Venerable Youhou waved his hand and said.
"Yes!" Upon hearing Venerable Youhou's words, Venerable Shihuo felt as if he had been granted a pardon and took his leave repeatedly. These past few minutes had been the most embarrassing few minutes he had experienced since becoming Venerable. He truly hadn't expected that someone would actually resort to such a cruel act against a talented junior of his own clan for a renewable cultivation resource!
At the scene, the many Immortal God brought by Venerable Shihuo also respectfully bowed to Venerable Youhou and Venerable Zhouguang. Then, one of his Feng Wang released immortal power, sweeping over everyone. First, he Teleportation to a light-year away, and then each used their own means to leave. After all, if he used "God Kingdom Teleportation" in front of others, he would expose the coordinates of his God Kingdom.
Seeing that the powerful figures from the Giant Axe Dojo had all left, Venerable Youhou then instructed Venerable Zhouguang was respectfully bowing to him, "Investigate the backgrounds of those guys from earlier. If they're really not clean, kill them on the spot. As for the others, send them to the Outer Region Battlefield to atone for their crimes!"
"Yes!" Venerable Youhou only needed to blindly follow Venerable Zhouguang's orders.
Boom!
Immediately, a divine power containing fluctuations in spacetime enveloped the two. In an instant, Venerable Youhou and Venerable Zhouguang vanished from their original spot.
The outer space of the Solar System Yuan Planet is also the place where Lu Yan'an and the King Luanyu perished together because of the Fire God Source Crystal.
A figure clad in magnificent golden armor, with a purple Secret Pattern between his brows, appeared silently. He was imposing, with dazzling long golden hair, a smiling face, and long eyebrows that reached his chest. In terms of bearing, he was very similar to the City Lord of Chaos.
This is the Lord of Void Gold. In the Giant Axe Dojo lineage, the Giant Axe Founder usually takes the lead, but as the only Universe Supreme Being among the Human Race, the Giant Axe Founder needs to constantly explore for Supreme Treasure in the Universe Ocean. Therefore, the Lord of Void Gold usually oversees various tasks in the Giant Axe Dojo. And this time, the task of resurrecting Lu Yan'an naturally fell to him.
"A farce!" Even the assassination attempt by the King Luanyu was nothing more than a farce in the face of a great being like the Lord of Void Gold. In truth, whether Lu Yan'an could be resurrected or not was unimportant to him. What mattered most was that the Human Race needed to maintain a unified voice! The King Luanyu's actions undoubtedly had a very serious negative impact on the race, which actively or indirectly led to the Lord of Void Gold's intervention!
"Rise!"
The Lord of Void Gold looked at the vast void around him, and with a single thought, he caused time in this void to rapidly reverse—scene after scene rewound, the scene of Lu Yan'an's Original Core being instantly annihilated reappeared... the scene of the indiscriminate attack of the Fire God Source Crystal reappeared... the Lord of Void Gold wantonly manipulated Time Acceleration its reversal.
"Hmm?" The Lord of Void Gold immediately stopped. Time froze at the moment before Lu Yan'an was about to die.
"Fix!" With just one thought, he instantly locked onto Lu Yan'an.
"Time Reversal." The Lord of Void Gold then caused time to automatically reverse.
It's like pressing down a bullet; it will automatically bounce back! If the Lord of Void Gold doesn't save anyone... then he bears no burden. But if he wants to revive life, bringing it from the past back to the present, then he must bear the punishment.
The punishment was actually intended for Lu Yan'an, but with Lu Yan'an's small frame, he couldn't withstand it; only the Lord of Void Gold could bear it.
For the Lord of Void Gold, even resurrecting an immortal would be extremely easy, let alone merely resurrecting Lu Yan'an, a Domain Lord.
However, things took a sudden turn for the worse! At the point where the time anomaly was supposed to rewind normally, as the spacetime fluctuations descended upon Lu Yan'an, the Lord of Void Gold felt a profound terror—a terrifying warning that pierced his very soul! It was as if the moment the Lord of Void Gold attempted to bring Lu Yan'an back to this timeline, he himself would instantly perish!
"This, this is?" The moment the warning appeared in his mind, the Lord of Void Gold gave up on resurrecting Lu Yan'an. He watched helplessly as time and space gradually returned to their original orbit, and the time-space anomaly point belonging to Lu Yan'an gradually returned to its original state, but he could do nothing about it!
"Could it be that he's not dead?" the Lord of Void Gold muttered to himself.
If life is alive, it cannot be resurrected. However, some inanimate objects, even if they already exist (for example, if a Supreme Treasure already exists), can still be brought back to Supreme Treasure by Reverse Time and Space. But the punishment is far too terrible; the cost of Reverse Time and Space to bring back one Supreme Treasure is higher than the cost of acquiring ten Supreme Treasure.
The nature of the disruption to the logic of space and time caused by living and inanimate objects is completely different.
The absence of life means that one cannot actively influence the development of events; actions dependent on life are still necessary for progress. Since life already exists at the current point in time, if we were to go back in time and bring back that life from that point, the underlying logic of the universe would break down, causing the universe itself to collapse—something the Supreme Rule cannot allow!
The essence of Reverse Time and Space is to directly help a life skip the point in time that will inevitably lead to its death, thus helping it overcome that fatal calamity through time travel. This is a privilege granted by the Primal Universe to every being at the level of Universe Master or higher; it does not require a complete understanding of the Space-Time Fusion Law. Once someone breaks through to the Universe Master, the universe will automatically bestow this privilege, like Innate Secret Technique!
"It seems we still need to investigate what exactly is going on with Lu Yan'an!" Originally, the Lord of Void Gold thought this was just a farce, but now the failure of Lu Yan'an's resurrection seems to have made him think of something, and he has begun to take this matter seriously.
"Let the Giant Axe try first. If even he fails, then Lu Yan'an must still be alive!" The Lord of Void Gold had extensive experience in resurrection. After confirming from the previous time reversal that Lu Yan'an had not been Soul Enslavement, he came to this conclusion. Unless he was completely annihilated after being Soul Enslavement, the only possibility for a failed resurrection was that he was still alive!
"Let's assess the situation first!" The Lord of Void Gold glanced at the void before him, then vanished from his spot in an instant.
