Chapter 1142: To Reverse Time (1/2)

The left side of Di Ling’s face gradually began to turn as well. Her gentle features started to vanish, replaced by a snarling demonic face.

“We need to stop it!” Qing Yu’s eyes widened. If the demon of the immortal dao fully devoured Di Ling, then they would never be able to claim the Blood Sea. More importantly, once Di Ling was subsumed, the curse on the emperor title would be reignited and completely integrated into the immortal dao as a curse of eternity.

She rushed forward and brought her hand down on the demon’s head; the Dao Flower bloomed to protect her body.

However, that didn’t shake the demon at all. An eerie smile still clung to its face as it watched Qing Yu while still consuming Di Ling.

“Let me.” Lu Yun threw out his hand to stop her second charge and pulled her behind his back. “The demon’s target is you. It knew we would come, so it came to the Blood Sea to finish assimilating Di Ling. Everything she said just now was under its influence.”

He stared fixedly at the demon and concentrated all of his energy to his right hand, forming an ancient spear—Heavenfall.

Whoosh!

Lu Yun stabbed forward at an unmoving target. Instead of dodging or evading, the demon smirked to see the spear come toward it.

Hummm.

Instead of biting into Di Ling, the spear flared with the purple radiance of a combat art when it neared the demon.

Time Reincarnation!

Lu Yun sealed away the demon of the immortal dao with a time domain formed by this combat art.

“Lu Yun, should I say you’re an idiot or adorable?” the demon snorted with laughter to see this combat art, of all things, being used against it. “My existence pervades the entire immortal dao. No time beneath it can contain me.”

The demon was born of the immortal dao, and any demon originating from the immortal dao was also it, whether in the past, present, or future.

“Besides, I’m the one who invented your time combat art and taught it to that group of fools. You want to use my own art against me?” The demon’s unnatural smile deepened with weirdness and it stretched out misshapen fingers to flick the time domain.

Pop!

A tiny ripple undulated over the pale purple domain after a crisp snap and then… nothing. The smile slid off the demon’s face; it was suddenly all business.

“I might have truly been helpless if I’d met you before visiting the chaos, but you’re just a demonic whelp in my eyes now.” Lu Yun barked with laughter as lights of six different colors swirled in his eyes.

The orders of inception, ethos, burgeon, creation, opposition, and nirvana materialized as a perfect circulation in his body.

“I don’t even know how many demonic brats like you I snuffed out in the mythological realm, and you want to use a trifling replica to scheme against me and my dao partner?”

“Mythological realm? Who are you?!” The demon began to struggle, but the time domain entirely surpassed the limits of its replica and gradually closed around it.
