Chapter 898: Chapter 898: Spacetime Dojo, Erased from the World
“Time manipulation, ranked ninth among the divine abilities of the Great Thousand World. Truly, it lives up to its reputation! Impressive, very impressive!” Zhong Shan commented the moment he reappeared, admiring Luo Xingchen’s divine ability.
The ninth divine ability? Indeed, it had unique aspects and was incredibly powerful. Luo Xingchen had only just begun to comprehend time manipulation, seemingly limited to a small area. If expanded to a larger scope, time manipulation could stop everything, leaving the world’s strongest at his mercy.
“What is this divine ability of yours? Why are you still alive after I’ve clearly killed you? Is it an external incarnation?” Luo Xingchen asked, frowning.
Zhong Shan didn’t answer Luo Xingchen but instead savored the experience. Time suspension—the feeling of everything being frozen was like a temporal cage, inescapable.
Such a powerful divine ability. It was said that in ancient times, Hongjun Daozu was a mighty saint capable of manipulating time. Even with such an impressive divine ability, it ranked only ninth in the Great Thousand World. How strong must the top eight be?
As for how Zhong Shan resurrected, it was simple. His shadow body had shadow clones. Destroy one, and another would remain. If Zhong Shan didn’t want to reveal too much, hundreds of Zhong Shans could have appeared within the reincarnation channel.
“Time Reversal!”
Seeing Zhong Shan not answering, Luo Xingchen decided to verify it himself. With his powerful time manipulation, the time suspension ability made Zhong Shan feel everything around him freeze again. Nothing moved, not even his heartbeat.
Luo Xingchen’s powerful claw once again pierced Zhong Shan’s chest.
“Boom!”
Zhong Shan exploded again, but the reincarnation channel remained.
Luo Xingchen frowned deeply. At this moment, he finally took Zhong Shan seriously, no longer seeing him as a mere Tianxian but as someone on par with himself.
In the distance, Zhong Shan’s shadow clone reappeared.
“Arrow Realm!”
Luo Xingchen shouted, and golden arrows suddenly appeared from all directions, surrounding the reincarnation channel with countless golden arrows, densely packed.
An arrow realm—this was Luo Xingchen’s ‘world’?
Outside, numerous strong individuals watched the battlefield intently.
But from the moment Zhong Shan activated the reincarnation channel, nothing could be seen inside.
While people marveled at Zhong Shan’s power, they were more interested in seeing the two inside. Unfortunately, the reincarnation channel obscured everything.
Observers could only judge the battle’s progress by time.
As time passed, their belief in Zhong Shan’s strength grew. Luo Xingchen, an Ancient Immortal with time manipulation, the Zhuanlun Domain’s top expert, had been battling for half an hour without a decisive outcome, indicating a fierce fight.
The continuous existence of the reincarnation channel suggested that Zhong Shan had the upper hand.
Zhong Shan having the upper hand? Many found it unbelievable. Was Da Jing really a newcomer from the Small Thousand World? How could they be so strong?
Meanwhile, the experts from the eight celestial dynasties fighting against Da Jing frowned deeply, realizing they had severely underestimated Zhong Shan.
As everyone waited, suddenly, the reincarnation channel’s periphery shone with golden light.
“Boom!”
A terrifying explosion erupted, and the distant reincarnation channel abruptly vanished, or rather, was enveloped by the immense golden light.
In the aftermath, as the golden light dissipated, the battlefield reappeared. Luo Xingchen stood with a fierce expression, surrounded by remnants of his arrow realm, while Zhong Shan stood calmly, seemingly unscathed.
“Your divine ability is impressive, Luo Xingchen, but it’s time for you to make a choice,” Zhong Shan declared firmly, his voice resonating with authority and resolve.
The golden light pierced the sky, creating a massive pillar that faintly revealed numerous golden arrows.
“This is the Sect Master’s Arrow Realm!” Chen Xiaoqian frowned.
“Zhong Shan is actually this strong? He forced the Sect Master to use the Arrow Realm?”
“The Sect Master is invincible. No one can defeat him!”
…
Speculation ran rampant outside. The internal battle was undoubtedly intense.
Indeed, the battle was fierce. The manifestation of an Ancient Immortal’s world enveloped Zhong Shan’s reincarnation channel.
Standing within the reincarnation channel, Zhong Shan could see the countless arrows outside, each imbued with a subtle time attribute, reminiscent of the arrows from Luo Tianhe’s previous ambush.
Thousands of arrows shot towards the center, aiming directly at the reincarnation channel.
Perhaps now within the Ancient Immortal’s ‘world,’ the reincarnation channel grew weaker, seemingly on the verge of disappearing entirely.
Luo Xingchen looked at Zhong Shan from a distance, his forehead glowing blue. Zhong Shan suddenly found himself immobilized again. This time, Luo Xingchen did not attack but coldly observed.
“Reverse!”
With a shout from Luo Xingchen, Zhong Shan became blurred, transforming into a shadow and shooting towards Luo Xingchen.
“Boom!”
Luo Xingchen struck the shadow, dispersing it, then recoiled in shock.
“You… you…” Luo Xingchen broke into a cold sweat.
He glanced at his previous position, where a faint shadow was now forming into the shape of Zhong Shan.
“You’ve been hiding in my shadow all along?” Luo Xingchen’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
The revealed Zhong Shan stretched his neck, sighing in admiration. “You actually found me! I’m growing more fond of time manipulation!”
Rather than being disappointed at being discovered, Zhong Shan seemed excited.
This was the first time someone had located him.
“The main body has appeared. Do you have any other tricks?” Luo Xingchen asked coldly.
Zhong Shan’s eerie abilities had left Luo Xingchen deeply unsettled. Hiding in shadows—how could such a terrifying power exist? Was this a divine ability?
Most importantly, Luo Xingchen hadn’t noticed Zhong Shan’s presence until now. Without the Arrow Realm and time manipulation, even an Ancient Immortal wouldn’t have detected him. If Zhong Shan had decided to ambush, how terrifying would that be?
Luo Xingchen felt a chill run down his spine. For some reason, he suddenly had an urge to avoid Zhong Shan at all costs.
Zhong Shan looked at Luo Xingchen calmly and said, “Citizens of the Great Da Jing Sacred Court, raise your right hands and lend me your strength!”
Luo Xingchen’s pupils contracted.
Borrowing the power of the Da Jing nation? How was that possible?
This wasn’t even Changjing. How could Zhong Shan tap into the power of the entire Da Jing nation here?
Yet, Zhong Shan did it. His voice suddenly echoed in the hearts of all Da Jing citizens, through some peculiar transmission method. Zhong Shan succeeded.
“The Sacred King’s voice?”
“The Sacred King needs strength!”
“Raise your right hand!”
All of Da Jing resounded with countless voices of support. In Da Jing, Zhong Shan was a god, the deity in everyone’s heart. As the people raised their hands, the sea of Qi in Changjing surged wildly, and immense energy was transmitted into Zhong Shan’s body.
Luo Xingchen’s eyes were filled with doubt and disbelief.
As Zhong Shan grew stronger, the reincarnation channel suddenly received a massive boost of support.
“Boom!”
The vast reincarnation channel expanded by ten thousand times in diameter.
In an instant, the reincarnation channel, which had been engulfed by the Arrow Realm, returned with overwhelming force, enveloping the Arrow Realm in turn.
Outside, people initially saw the endless golden light and arrows, assuming the battle was over.
With the appearance of the Arrow Realm, who could compete? The reincarnation channel was completely surrounded; no matter how strong Zhong Shan was, he couldn’t escape.
“The Reincarnation Saint must be anxious now. He finally cultivated a Sacred King disciple, and now he’s lost!” The Third Prince showed an excited expression.
“Boom!”
A loud explosion sent a shockwave through everyone’s hearts.
The vast reincarnation channel reappeared, its terrifying suction destroying surrounding mountains. Some nearby cultivators were sucked in without any resistance.
In terror, people quickly retreated to the outer edges.
The reincarnation channel expanded ten thousand times in diameter, astonishing countless onlookers whose mouths formed an ‘o’ shape.
“Impossible! How did the reincarnation channel become so large in an instant? Only the two main disciples of the Reincarnation Saint can achieve this. But Zhong Shan isn’t one of them. How can this be?” The Third Prince was horrified.
Among the onlookers were citizens of Da Jing, and someone spread the news.
“The Sacred King is borrowing power?”
“Zhong Shan is borrowing power? This isn’t even Changjing. How can he borrow the power of Da Jing?” Upd𝒂ted chapters 𝒐n n𝒐velbin(.)com
“Why is this happening? How can Zhong Shan do this?”
…
People didn’t understand, but Zhong Shan indeed achieved it.
The terrifying power of reincarnation increased madly. The ground trembled, the sky shook. The power of reincarnation was terrifying, and so was Zhong Shan of Da Jing!
Inside the reincarnation channel, Luo Xingchen’s Arrow Realm was thoroughly overwhelmed.
With Zhong Shan borrowing power, the reincarnation channel’s strength surged again.
For a moment, the terrifying suction seemed unbearable even for Luo Xingchen.
“You understand the laws of time and space? How is that possible?” Luo Xingchen asked incredulously.
“This is why you can’t be a ‘master.’ You don’t know anything. If you had truly investigated, you would know. In the Small Thousand World, during the battle with Kong Lietian at the two-world junction, Kong Lietian used the Yuanshi Banner to achieve this effect. With Da Jing’s talents and hundreds of years of research, how could this challenge remain unsolved? The laws of time and space? By integrating a life-bound artifact with the Qi of Changjing, I can mobilize the power of all Da Jing nearby!” Zhong Shan said solemnly.
Luo Xingchen squinted his eyes, acknowledging, “I admit I underestimated you. Even without understanding the laws of time and space, you’ve managed to figure this out. Even if you die now, I admire you! However, just as you can borrow Da Jing’s power, I can also borrow the power of the Spacetime Dojo!”
“You have the time divine ability, so naturally, you can do this. Go ahead!” Zhong Shan said with a calm smile.
Seeing Zhong Shan’s composure, Luo Xingchen suddenly had a bad premonition.
“Power of Spacetime!” Luo Xingchen said softly.
Suddenly, his expression changed to one of disbelief.
“What’s happening?” Luo Xingchen’s eyes showed anxiety.
“What’s happening? Your Spacetime Dojo has been razed to the ground. From now on, the Spacetime Dojo is erased from the world!” Zhong Shan declared firmly.
