Chapter 637: TimeTranslator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

As Tiandao sent his palm slapping down, time accelerated, and the feeling that everything in the universe was changing at a rapid rate encompassed the Astral Ancestor.

This was the level 10 black magic—Withering of Time.

It was impossible even for one’s martial will to exist for eternity. The martial will would also age as time passed. However, it would be at a much slower rate compared to the ageing of the physical body.

The Withering of Time could accelerate the ageing of the martial will, depleting the other party’s lifespan. It would instantly turn one’s consciousness into dust, leaving no damage on the physical body.

Tiandao was going to destroy the opponent’s will and the use the Time Resurgence Technique to snatch his physical body.

Under this palm, the Astral Ancestor’s will seemed to age through several years or several decades, as if it would disintegrate at any moment.

However, at the next moment, his eyes opened abruptly, and a myriad of starlight flashed in his eyes. It was like the movements of the universe, the life and death of the stars.

Earlier, the Astral Ancestor was regenerating his will which had been dealt a great damage by Fang Xingjian. However, as he had been pestered by the messed up memories from when he entered a state of chaos, his regeneration speed was very slow.

Despite Tiandao’s Withering of Time dealing a great damage to the Astral Ancestor, it also indirectly helped him to clear up those messed up memories in his mind.

After those memories cleared away, the Astral Ancestor was able to instantly reassemble his martial will. He opened his eyes and struck out with his Astral River Smash, smashing toward Tiandao with an endless amount of gravitational force and darkness.

“What audacity. Who dares to rob my body?”

A vast and majestic power gushed out. Having condensed the Astral Spiritual Physique, the Astral Ancestor who was at the second tier of the Divine level was far too powerful.

As his palm struck out, 1% of his power turned into repercussion waves, lashing out into the air. However, they were still able to bash the buildings within a range of several hundred meters into smithereens.

The remaining power turned into a distorted black hole, encompassing toward Tiandao.

“It’s useless.”

A hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Tiandao’s lips. Golden martial will gushed out from his body, and golden flames were shot out from a piece of crystal that hung around his neck under his clothes.

In that instant, the entire world seemed to have come to a standstill; the Crystal of Time was activated.

This treasure that the Gold Mage King had depleted countless materials and powers to forge for his direct disciple now displayed a terrifying prowess.

In this moment that it was activated, the entire world that Tiandao was seeing seemed to slow down to an extreme. It was as if the entire world was at a standstill.

Be it the Lonestar Knight and his two martial juniors, who were regenerating, or the Astral Ancestor, who had struck out his palm and had his martial will condensed in midair…

The entire world seemed to have come to a standstill at this moment.

This was the power of the Crystal of Time. It could accelerate the user’s time, causing the entire world to seem as if the time had stopped.

This state, in which time had come to a stop, could be maintained for one second. Then there was a cooling time for one second before it could be performed once again.

This meant that, with the Crystal of Time, Tian Yi could enter a second of standstill between each second. In battle, Tiandao could have double the time as compared to his opponents.

The standstill of one second was like the twinkling of an eye, disappearing in a flash. However, to a Divine level expert like Tian Yi, one second was a lot.

Golden martial will started burning on his body and then turned into countless golden fist shadows that smashed out toward the Astral Ancestor like a myriad of meteors. They went smashing toward the weakness of the Astral Ancestor’s power.

Dong dong dong dong dong dong dong dong!

Sound could not be transmitted in this space that had come to a standstill. However, as the many golden fists smashed onto the Astral Ancestor’s body, it seemed as if endless attacking sounds could be heard.

While the fist shadows covered his entire body, a myriad of fists attacked his defenseless body.

At the next second, time regained its flow, and the martial will within and outside of the Astral Ancestor’s body was shattered. It turned into an endless number of light spots, scattering into the air. His physical body was unscathed, but he was stiff like a walking corpse.

‘Thankfully, the strength of his will is still insufficient to receive one second worth of attacks from me while being unguarded. Otherwise, it would be a little troublesome.’ Tiandao looked at the scattering light spots in the sky and broke into a savage grin.

It was as expected of an expert who had tried to strive for the third tier of the Divine level. The Astral Ancestor repeatedly suffered serious injuries due to having entered a state of chaos, Fang Xingjian’s attack, as well as Tiandao’s Withering of Time. However, after his martial will was smashed into smithereens, the bits of martial will turned into an image of the Milky Way in the sky, with each light spot jumping and trembling. Then at the next moment, all of them pierced out toward Tiandao like many light needles.
