Chapter 671: Chapter 8: Time Dice, the Consequences of Stealing Time (10,000+ words)_4
“Hiss!”
The flaming flying sword was hit.
Like time reversing on itself, the flaming flying sword returned to its starting point, reverting to the appearance of the True Spirit and the flying sword. At the same time, a force within the body seemed to want to transform the Vermilion Bird back to its original state, only resisting with the strength Wang Sheng could muster.
“Reversal, huh?”
Wang Sheng narrowed his eyes, acknowledging the difficulty of countering the power of time and space.
However, he also noticed that the once rust-covered chains now had significantly less rust.
The chains continued to surge forward, launching a direct attack at Wang Sheng.
Wang Sheng, gripping the Destruction Spear, unleashed the full power of the Spear Dao True Intent with a flick, sending the chains flying.
“Not affected?”
Wang Sheng realized something.
Activating the Destruction Spear like it was an extension of his limbs, he instantly counterattacked, crossing through space with unrivaled speed.
“Rip—”
Like tearing through a piece of ragged cloth, the Destruction Spear pierced through Xu’s body.
“Useless!”
Xu once again deployed the Power of Time, hoping to heal himself.
But at that moment, Wang Sheng cracked a grin and said, “Is that so?”
A thought from him, and the Spear Dao True Intent erupted, the aura of destruction emanating from Xu’s body.
The power of time was restrained!
Xu’s manipulation of time wasn’t as formidable as imagined.
It could be contested with True Intent, even obliterated.
All of a sudden, the power of time within Xu’s body fell into disarray, as if manifesting three shadows.
Wang Sheng recognized all three shadows.
Thinking of the situation on the Heavenly Saint Star, he suddenly understood something.
“So it is, the Three Saints are one, merely divided across past, future, and present time-spaces. The condition of the Heavenly Saint Star is but you amassing sufficient power of space-time, to perfect the fusion after, becoming even more powerful.”
“It seems my timing was quite apt, to encounter you before you became perfect. Looks like you didn’t succeed, did you?”
Realizing his secret was exposed, Xu’s expression instantly darkened.
“If not for you, if not you, how would it have come to this!!!”
Without any hesitation, Xu unleashed all his power of space-time, as if he was ready to ascend and merge into the long river of time and space.
At this very moment, the Time Dice, which had transformed into the time-space chains, reappeared, suppressing him from above.
The time-space chains emerged anew, enveloping Xu like a spider web.
But how could Wang Sheng give him that chance?
Spear Dao True Intent and Fist Dao True Intent burst forth simultaneously, the aura of destruction instantly overpowering the forces on Xu’s body, forcibly breaking the time-space chains.
Crack!
Xu was gravely injured again, blood flowing profusely, and unable to heal under the assault of the destructive aura.
What was crucial now was that the time power swirling around him grew even more chaotic.
Xu was formidable, his hands forming seals to invoke mysterious doctrines, constructing Divine Armor around his body to protect his true form, confining the power of time.
But how powerful was Wang Sheng’s Primordial Spirit Power! Naturally, he could see Xu’s worsening state.
Spare no effort in pursuit of a defeated enemy!
Wang Sheng would not miss this opportunity, transforming into a ray of light, his spear relentless, striking Xu’s body like raindrops.
Unable to suppress the anomaly in his body, Xu was forced to defend passively.
As he defended, Wang Sheng launched even more ferocious attacks, like a brute unstoppable until achieving his aim.
The power of the Ninth Realm was displayed without restraint, leading to sheer destruction.
Xu’s Divine Armor was torn apart by True Intent in an instant.
Supposedly indestructible, the Divine Armor was now rendered like tattered cloth, Xu becoming ever more ragged.
He knew he couldn’t go on like this.
“Do we really have to fight to a bitter end? I, too, am a powerful being of the Ninth Realm. If you push me to despair, you won’t come out unscathed either!”
Wang Sheng paid no heed, with Blood Qi filling the sky and Primordial Spirit Power locking onto Xu, not missing a single attack.
Xu attempted to use Space Movement to escape.
But it was futile.
As soon as he moved, Wang Sheng was upon him, the long spear falling toward Xu’s chest.
As Xu’s injuries multiplied and the Divine Armor shattered, Wang Sheng used his overwhelming Primordial Spirit Power and spotted Xu’s weakness.
The source of Xu’s power was in his chest.
One thrust of the Destruction Spear and spatial turbulence erupted, powerful energy gathering at one point, threatening to set off a catastrophic explosion at any moment.
Xu, sensing danger, tried to Instant Teleport again.
But how could Wang Sheng let him escape?
Space Confinement!
Amid the turbulence, space was confined for just an instant, but for Wang Sheng that was enough.
“Destruction Spear. Apex!”
The Destruction Spear seemed to become a point of light, absorbing everything while Primordial Spirit Power surged madly, turning the Virtual World into reality at this moment.
Xu felt dazed, and by the time he came to his senses, the Destruction Spear had already pierced his origin.
Now, his body already riddled with wounds, his source additionally damaged.
Suddenly, two shadows emerged from his body.
The past and future bodies, which had already merged, were unexpectedly shaken and reappeared.
Wang Sheng had been waiting for this moment.
With the spear in his right hand, a flying sword appeared in his left, striking directly at the future body with the strongest aura.
“God-slaying Sword!”
The God-slaying Sword, capable of severing causal forces, cleaved off the future body’s arm.
The power of causality disrupted the already uncontrollable Power of Time, and the suppressed power erupted instantaneously.
Xu split into three!
“How could this be, when I have already merged, why are there such flaws?!!!”
Xu appeared frantic, unable to accept his current state.
“If that’s the case, I will borrow power from even further afar!”
Xu once again activated the Time Dice, seemingly reaching for a more distant future.
Wang Sheng, naturally, moved to stop him. Xu, now split into three, had lost the power of the Ninth Realm and was easily dealt with.
At this point, Xu had transferred his consciousness to his future body, wagering everything on one last gamble.
The aura of the future body surged as Wang Sheng’s Destruction Spear once again concocted a storm, aiming to annihilate Xu’s future body.
