Bang!
With that tremendous crash, the entire Sea of Clouds World seemed to tilt in another direction.
The massive Taiyi was utterly helpless beneath Leviathan's hammer blows, battered from side to side. The silver Pocket Watch's time stop was effective, but time could not remain frozen forever. Leviathan's hammer always struck Taiyi the instant time resumed, while the few Talisman Bombs intermittently fired by the two Talisman Guns were deftly evaded by Leviathan's compact figure. Aside from leaving dozens of deep bullet scars in the poor earth of the Sea of Clouds World, they achieved nothing.

When his soul touched one of those streams, it was as though he had stepped into a raging river, and the rushing current swept him away
