Chapter 202 (Continued)
However, the Divine Venerable of Time possesses the Divinity of Time, making him the only one with complete Divine Skill.
The Flower of Evil said, "Even the incomplete version, its Time Rewind effect far exceeds your imagination."
Li Yang then asked, "Isn't this Divine Skill somewhat like the Laws of Heaven and Earth? The same law can exhibit different effects depending on the number of fragments and the level of the holder."
Flower of Evil: "..." I hate people who are quick-witted and have high comprehension the most; it makes him feel no sense of accomplishment.
Li Yang then asked, "Could these Divine Skill be complete Laws of Heaven and Earth themselves?"
Flower of Evil: "Enough! You're just a mere Seventh Grade Realm, trying to contemplate things of such a high level. Aren't you afraid your Spirit Sea will explode?"
Lianxin: "Fellow Daoist, don't be afraid. With me and the Flower of Evil here, your Spirit Sea is very stable."
Flower of Evil: "..." So annoying, he didn't want to share the same "sea" with this troublemaker!
Their exchange ended in an instant, but Li Yang's gaze never left the contest within the flower bud.
The duel between the two was incredibly exciting, and everyone watched with bated breath.
Although Huoji lost face in the Thousand Flowers Realm Domain, his strength was undeniable. The Power of Space and Power of Fire he unleashed was enough to make the Divine Venerable of Fire look solemn.
The Power of Space has a strong inclusiveness, and the Huoji has a very profound understanding of the Power of Fire. He actually used the Power of Space to greatly compress the Power of Fire, condensing it into a terrifying force that he blasted out.
The most amazing thing is that, because it was compressed, the explosive Power of Fire appeared to be silent and even harmless.
The more than 60 onlookers initially did not realize that this was a rather fatal blow.
The seven Sage understood, and they were also amazed by the Huoji's talent.
If this blow strikes at the right Shi Yun will inevitably be eliminated.
Not only that, his Origin Soul will also be injured, and it is estimated that it will take him decades to recover.
In the early stages of the battle, Huoji's attacks were explosive and fierce, perfectly matching the impression he has always given everyone.
Little did they know that these were all illusions, a prelude to a seemingly insignificant yet terrifying attack.
Those who understood this move all felt that their Shi Yun was about to turn against them.
The Flower of Evil remarked coolly, "Huoji is still too arrogant; he underestimated this direct disciple of the Divine Venerable of Time."
Li Yang initially couldn't understand it, but because she coexisted with the Flower of Evil, and the Flower of Evil was a chatterbox, she was able to understand it.
The Power of Space, containing the Power of Fire, slammed down upon Shi Yun.
Unaware of this, Shi Yun was gathering its strength to rush towards the Huoji.
Is this match about to end?
A dazzling light shone in Huoji's eyes. He seemed to see his own victory, to see himself take first place in this Personal Disciple Tournament, to see himself wash away his previous shame, and to return to his peak in front of everyone!
With a deafening roar, the Power of Fire, compressed by the Power of Space, erupted without warning, and the resulting heatwave almost completely engulfed the flower bud space.
Even the disciples watching from the outside couldn't help but lean back slightly.
The flower buds certainly won't burst open, but the effect is so amazing that it makes you want to run away.
The Seven Sages remained remarkably calm. Despite being closest to the flower bud, their eyelashes didn't even tremble; they continued to gaze intently at it.
"The battle is over..." Xuan Shi leaned close to Li Yang and whispered, "You should just concede in the next round, so you don't get seriously injured and it will interfere with your cultivation."
Xuanyuan frowned slightly, seemingly considering this possibility as well.
Li Yang remained silent, focusing intently on the situation inside the flower bud.
A series of exclamations rang out.
"What happened? Why is my Shi Yun completely unaffected?!"
"Huoji's attacks were at full power, and he didn't dodge, how could this be...?"
"The area is so large, even Spacetime Puppet would have been blown away!"
Inside the flower bud, the Huoji's attack, though clearly aimed precisely, missed its mark on Shi Yun.
At that Shi Yun, fortune instantly split into four Spacetime Puppet, which attacked Huoji from four angles.
"He had already planted Time Anchor in the Huoji." The person who said this was also the senior sister of the Divine Venerable of Time, a direct disciple of the God of Shi Yun.
However, this senior sister was eliminated early on, and Shi Yun didn't allow her to go further.
Shi Yun was indeed the dark horse of this Personal Disciple Tournament, managing to demonstrate strength surpassing the Peak Eighth Grade with only the Early Eighth Grade.
"Time Anchor?" The disciples certainly knew what it was, but it was too difficult to operate.
All members of the Labyrinth Society can learn Spatial Teleportation and use it to establish Space Anchor.
Apart from the Divine Venerable of Time, no one else in the Labyrinth Society could create Time Anchor.
The uses of Time Anchor are terrifying.
Once planted, it can be returned to its previous state.
Although everyone saw the Huoji's attack explode, the attack was reversed by Time Anchor Shi Yun the very moment it damaged Shi Yun.
It wasn't that he was able to withstand the attack, but rather that the Huoji was reversed to the state it was in before unleashing its fatal blow.
Huoji realized this too; he suddenly clenched his teeth, his face turning extremely pale.
In the previous battles, Shi Yun never used Time Anchor because there was no need.
Only the Huoji allowed him to unleash this terrifying power, enough to shake the Astral Realm.
Flower of Evil: "I don't think Shi Yun live much longer. Will the Divine Venerable of Time allow him to continue his cultivation?"
Li Yang: "..."
Shi Yun has demonstrated an astonishing control over the Power of Time. With such talent, once he advances to the Ninth-Grade Supreme, he is very likely to develop a greedy desire for the Divinity of Time.
Would the Divine Venerable of Time have raised a wolf cub destined to devour him?
That's why the Flower of Evil has such feelings.
It's definitely not a good thing for Shi Yun to expose you to this extent.
So what if he won first place in the Personal Disciple Tournament?
In the end, they were no match for the Divine Venerable of Time!
Although the Huoji was hampered by Shi Yun, it did not give up the fight.
Facing the four Spacetime Puppet of Shi Yun, he withstood them by relying on his Invincibility Star Skill that amplified the Laws of Heaven and Earth, and then instantly distanced himself from them.
The two exchanged blows in this battle, making for a thrilling and exciting contest.
Even though Huoji was temporarily at a disadvantage, no one dared to underestimate him anymore.
In the Thousand Flowers Realm Domain, if Huoji hadn't encountered the Light of Dawn of Huaxia, it wouldn't have suffered such a crushing defeat.
Huoji had realized that he had been planted with Time Anchor; the Star Skill he had just used had returned to an unused state.
Huoji gritted his teeth and prepared for a second release.
Like spatial Time Anchor Space Anchor are one-time events.
He didn't believe that Shi Yun could plant another seed for him.
After the Huoji returned to its previous state, both the Power of Space and the Power of Fire were replenished with his Origin Soul, so he could use it again.
Those close associates outside the flower bud couldn't help but worry about the Shi Yun.
With only the Early Eighth Grade, Shi Yun's ability to fight the powerful Huoji to this extent is already quite remarkable.
Instead, no one wanted to see him lose.
They began to hope that he could work a miracle!
This time, Huoji was even more cautious than before. The Power of Fire contained within the Power of Space became increasingly silent, and even the seven Sages had to look closely to discern whether he had made a move.
Such stealth, if used for a sneak attack, would be too much for even Ninth-Grade Supreme being to withstand.
Huoji has made its move!
He found the opening and was even more confident than last time.
Last time, he underestimated his Shi Yun, thinking they were doomed, but he never expected that he would be planted with Time Anchor.
This time, Huoji directly predicted that he had been planted with Time Anchor again, so what he had to do was to time the release precisely and not give Shi Yun any opening to activate the Time Anchor.
This is very difficult, but Huoji is confident that it can be done!
He was lucky to Shi Yun the first time, but this time he's determined to win the fight.
The Flower of Evil blinked and said, "That's good. The timing of your attack... was excellent."
Li Yang narrowed his eyes, trying to see the Huoji's attack clearly...
All of this happened quickly and abruptly, with a terrifying burst of flames erupting in an instant.
Did the Huoji succeed?
Is Shi Yun about to be eliminated?
The Flower of Evil exclaimed, "There's no Time Anchor... could it be...?"
With a deafening roar, Shi Yun was struck by the Huoji.
Those close to the flower bud couldn't help but let out sighs of regret.
They had always believed that the Huoji had a better chance of success, and they thought that Shi Yun would work its magic, but they never expected...
"After all, there is a difference in cultivation level, but Huoji's strength is indeed formidable."
"What a pity. If Shi Yun had been raised to the Eighth Grade Middle Stage, it would have been hard to say who would have won or lost."
"Yes! He doesn't even need to reach the Peak Eighth Grade..."
"Who is Shi Yun lucky person? Their talent is so high!"
The group chatted freely, convinced that the outcome of the match was already decided.
Unexpectedly, the situation reversed again.
Huoji's attack landed squarely on Shi Yun, causing Shi Yun to stagger back several steps and crash into the flower bud.
There is a law within the flower bud that prevents it from harming life, so no matter how strong the Huoji's attack was, the Shi Yun protected its vital energy.
But Shi Yun was already severely injured and collapsed, unable to continue fighting.
Dao Yi spoke at just the right moment, beginning the final countdown. "Three, two..."
Before the last number was even finished, the heavily injured and collapsed Shi Yun suddenly appeared before Huoji.
The Huoji was utterly horrified!
The onlookers gasped in surprise!
"How is this possible?"
"Time Anchor! This time, he didn't plant it on the Huoji, but on himself!"
Even the Seven Sages straightened their backs and looked intently at Shi Yun.
