As the viewers reeled from the reversal of time, the video continued playing.

After Asura Yaksha used the power of time, a power no mortal should wield, time across the entire battlefield of the Archon War was turned back by two days.

This time, Asura Yaksha went straight to Rex Lapis ahead of time and asked to stay behind to defend the Guili Assembly.

Though Rex Lapis was surprised by his choice, he agreed to the request and assigned him to the forces defending the city.

And so, Asura Yaksha was able to meet Guizhong in the Guili Assembly's main city.

"You're the leader of the yakshas, that Great General Asura, aren't you?"

"I am merely the leader of the yakshas. I hardly deserve to be called a great general."

"Is that so? But I heard that just a few days ago, you led eight hundred Millelith and routed a vanguard led by a god."

Guizhong's words left the viewers dumbfounded.

[He took on a god with eight hundred men? Asura Yaksha was that fierce?]

[That feat is even more incredible than what most gods could pull off!]

[Our Liyue actually had such a valiant god of war! No wonder we were able to win the Archon War in the end!]

[I really like Asura Yaksha more and more!]

[Damn it, I used to think Asura Yaksha was my love rival, but now it looks like Ganyu and Lady Anemo Archon are my love rivals!]

[Get the fuck out of Teyvat, you damn gay!]

As the viewers shared their various reactions, the scenes in the video changed at a rapid pace.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

The army of gods soon attacked again, and just as before, they took advantage of Rex Lapis's absence to rush into the Guili Assembly.

Faced with this unprecedented trial, Guizhong immediately arranged for the people to evacuate while she stayed behind to cover their retreat.

According to the original course of events, she would soon be defeated in battle against the Yaksha God and meet her death.

But this time, the course of the story changed markedly.

"Boom!"

Just as the Yaksha God's spear was about to pierce Guizhong, a spear wreathed in ice suddenly struck out, stopping the tip of his weapon at the last possible moment.

"Hmph, a mere yaksha dares to stand against me!?"

The Yaksha God looked down on Asura Yaksha's arrival.

After all, as the god of the yaksha race, he possessed absolute power to suppress and control ordinary yakshas.

If a yaksha absorbed too much of his Karmic Debt, he could even seize control of their mind and turn them into a puppet under his command.

But the Yaksha God soon discovered that the yaksha before him seemed different.

Not only did his opponent fully withstand the Karmic Debt he gave off without falling under his control, but his fighting ability also seemed extraordinary.

Despite being an ordinary yaksha, he actually possessed the terrifying ability to fight him on equal terms!

"Boom!"

The two sides fought a stunning battle.

In the chaotic battle that nearly leveled the entire Guili Assembly, the Yaksha God and Asura Yaksha proved evenly matched, and neither side could defeat the other.

But Asura Yaksha was still at a disadvantage.

He was not as powerful as the great god before him, and there was no way he could win in a head-on fight.

Moreover, as time passed, the Yaksha God grew increasingly accustomed to his opponent's abilities. He easily saw through his moves and drove his spear through the man's body.

"Die!"

"Regret your recklessness in daring to challenge me in the world beyond death!"

The Yaksha God spoke coldly, the coldness of a victor appearing on his face.

"Asura!"

When Guizhong saw Asura Yaksha's body impaled, a look of confusion and sorrow appeared on her face.

She hated her own weakness and helplessness. She could not even help him fight the god, leaving Asura Yaksha to bear all the pressure alone.

It filled her with an unprecedented sense of unwillingness and pain.

The viewers were likewise distressed by what Asura Yaksha had done.

[No way, is Asura Yaksha going to die in Guizhong's place?]

[No, my big bro Asura, don't die!]

[Heh, you're all too young. You still haven't seen the true nature of this video.]

[What do you mean? What true nature of the video?]

[Since the video is A Hundred Lifetimes of Reincarnation, everything here happened in history. That means Asura Yaksha won't die until he absorbs all the gods' remains in the future, gathers their resentment into his body, and is finally killed by Ganyu and the Five Yaksha. Since none of that has happened yet, there's no way Asura Yaksha can die here!]

[I see, that's right!]

The viewers' reasoning was soon confirmed.

In the video.

Although the Yaksha God's spear had pierced Asura Yaksha's body, there was no trace of despair or pain on his face. Instead, he showed excitement and anticipation.

"I've finally waited for this moment!"

"The last use of the power of time available to me in this reincarnation was reserved for the moment you pierced my body and completely let your guard down."

"Sorry, God, time isn't on your side!"

The moment Asura Yaksha finished speaking, a distinct clock pattern appeared in his pupils.

The hands of the clock began to turn backward at a tremendous speed.

In the end, the wound on Asura Yaksha's body actually healed at a tremendous speed, while his aura likewise swelled rapidly, eventually reaching a level no weaker than the Yaksha God's.

That was undoubtedly the effect of the Edict of Time.

At the cost of his soul, he forcibly gained the abilities accumulated over his many past reincarnations.

The Knight of Boreas had once used this move to defeat Decarabian, the God of Tornadoes. Now he pulled the same trick again, catching the Yaksha God at the moment he was full of confidence and had let his guard down, and suddenly struck!

"Extreme Ice Formation-Breaking Spear!"

Asura Yaksha concentrated all the strength in his body into his right arm and forcibly created an unimaginably terrifying spear of ice.

The Yaksha God had never expected Asura, who should have been dying, to suddenly erupt with power. Before he could react, the spear of ice pierced straight through him!

"Boom!"

The terrifying spear strike could destroy heaven and earth. In an instant, it tore apart the enemy before him and brought the disaster at the Guili Assembly to an end.

And unlike when he had been the Knight of Boreas, Asura Yaksha had clearly grown more accustomed to the power of the Edict of Time.

After sacrificing most of his soul for this final blow, he did not die on the spot. Instead, his soul suffered a grievous injury, though he still retained a part of himself.

As the price of saving Guizhong, that was clearly quite cheap.

And as the scene came to an end, so too did the extra chapter of the "Yaksha Chapter."
