Everyone within the Gate of Destinies, including Heavenly Emperor Malediction, was rooted to the spot. Both the Ice River Goddess and the Resurgent Divine General were wearing shocked and horrified expressions. The scene that had appeared before them surpassed their understandings, but they could not even communicate with each other.
The Resurgent Divine General tried his hardest to get a sense of it, but he could not comprehend what had happened to Fang Xingjian. “What on earth did he do? What kind of attack was that?”
“Fang Xingjian… We were all wrong. He is even more terrifying than that man.” The Ice River Goddess felt that the Fang Xingjian right now seemed endless. No matter how hard she tried, she was unable to sense his entire being.
“Unknown, indescribable, unfathomable… This realm… This martial art…” The Heavenly Emperor Malediction’s gaze revealed that he felt slightly emotionally moved. At this instant, he felt that he had seen the highest realm in martial arts.
Right after, everyone felt their body start to disintegrate, and their thoughts started getting chaotic. As the universe’s regulations changed, they could no longer sustain their conjured physiques. Their thoughts and consciousness were also unable to continue being sustained in their original states. They were like melted candles, slowly dissipating in void space.
On Fang Xingjian’s side, this was also the first time he had performed the Sattva Sword Technique with a population of 90 billion. Even he himself could not predict the prowess of this attack. The only thing he could do was use his full powers to guide the Sattva Sword Technique toward slashing fiercely in his opponent’s direction.
The crimson sword light descended toward Yan Feibai slowly. At this moment, the befuddlement in Yan Feibai’s eyes was already clearing up slowly as he recovered from the Heavenly Dao Order’s perplexity.
However, when he sensed the Sattva Sword Technique’s prowess, his gaze changed drastically.
“What kind of joke is this? Why do you have such authority?”
The Eternal Divine Furnace in Yan Feibai’s body was activated at full power, and the power of 12 stars erupted. They then propelled the Kryptonic Metal Battle Physique to unleash an effect that was several ten or several hundred times stronger.
“No one can think about killing me!”
An endless glow rose up outside Yan Feibai’s body. He performed the Light Speed Fist Technique’s Despair Transmission.
All the powers in his body collided against each other at light speed, causing all the particles to take on an absolute motionless condition and arrive at absolute zero.
Moreover, matter particles were not the only ones that had become motionless. Even space-time had reached a standstill, and all that remained was a stretch of darkness that represented despair, spreading out in all directions.
“One second… No, I only need 0.0001 second… As long as I can stop him for just an instant, I’ll be able to…”
Even with Yan Feibai’s confidence, he had not planned on fighting Fang Xingjian’s Sattva Sword Technique head-on. He only wanted to use Despair Transmission to stop it temporarily, then he would flee from this universe.
However, the Sattva Sword Technique exceeded his imagination. When his Light Speed Fist Technique came into contact with the red sword light, he felt like an idiot who was trying to use an ice-cream to seal up the entire ocean in ice.
Without being given any time to react, Yan Feibai’s body and thoughts—his everything—reached a limit with the increment of the entropies. They turned into an unknown matter with a degree of disorder that had reached an extremity, disappearing completely from this universe.
With Yan Feibai’s disappearance, Fang Xingjian immediately started to withdraw the prowess of the Sattva Sword Technique.
However, this power was too violent. Even though he had spent a duration of several decades of time, he still had no choice but to perform another Sattva Sword Technique to clash with it before he could completely withdraw the power from the Sattva Sword Technique.
Due to the effects of the super strong gravitational forces and space-time distortion, the duration of several decades that he had spent was just a few seconds in the surroundings.
When he withdrew the Sattva Sword Technique and returned to the original void space, he discovered that irreversible changes had already taken place there.
The entropy’s increment was irreversible. Although Fang Xingjian had ultimately used all of his powers to withdraw the Sattva Sword Technique, the changes he brought about to this universe were already irreversible.
The void space environment which had been illuminated by the supernova explosion was now in a vacuum state that had only pure heat energy. With the phenomenon of the increasing entropy, all the matter in the universe within a range of one light year had turned into pure heat energy, forming a small area with the heat death phenomenon.
Heat death was one of the things that represented the end of the universe. With the increasing entropy, all matter would eventually turn into pure heat energy. At this moment, this phenomenon had appeared in this universe as a result of Fang Xingjian’s Sattva Sword Technique.
When the heat death phenomenon filled up the entire universe, all matter would disappear, leaving behind evenly distributed heat energy that was all exactly the same. Time, space, and everything else would lose their meaning. The universe would die completely.
At the sight of this scene, Fang Xingjian gained a deeper understanding to the Sattva Sword in his hand. It was an attack that could truly bring an end to the universe and send out radiations to countless parallel worlds.
However, at this moment, the surrounding space-time once again started to change. Under Fang Xingjian’s surprised gaze, time seemed to flow in reverse. The void space within a range of one light year started to go through reverse timeflow, and heat energy once again turned into matter.
It was as if there was a pair of huge invisible hands pushing back the timeline. The Doomsday Fortresses and Gate of Destinies appeared in succession, and even Yan Feibai’s figure started to reappear. Everything seemed to return to the state before Fang Xingjian performed the Sattva Sword Technique.
Time was flowing in reverse, and it was happening across a large area before Fang Xingjian.
“Phew, that’s was close, so I close. I was almost done in.” Yan Feibai heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at the hourglass in his consciousness, feeling extremely glad.
‘Thankfully I made a trip back home after I graduated and used all my assets and took up a loan in exchange for the Time Reversal Sand. Otherwise, who knows how long I’ll have to take before I regenerate.’
Every official citizen from the Country of Delusions would leave behind their own branding, which would allow them to borrow the government’s power to regenerate in the river of time. However it would be impossible to get back the time and cultivation lost.
Therefore, Yan Feibai spent all of his assets in exchange for the Time Reversal Sand.
The people from the Ancient Heavenly Court were also revived from the heat death with the help of Yan Feibai’s light.
However, all of them exchanged glances, unable to understand what had just happened.
From the moment Fang Xingjian performed the Sattva Sword Technique, the battle in front of them had already started to break away from their understanding.
Still, there was one thing that they understood. Fang Xingjian’s attack had been negated once again.
Be it the Heavenly Emperor Malediction, the Ice River Goddess, or the Resurgent Divine General, all of them felt a little numb. Yan Feibai kept on refreshing their recognition of what a being powerful was. Each time they thought that what they had seen was already extreme, Yan Feibai would break through the limits and display all sorts of unbelievable remarkable abilities.
The Ice River Goddess sighed, ‘Is it really possible to win against an opponent like this?’
In comparison to the Ancient Heavenly Court’s ignorance, Edwards—who was in one of the Doomsday Fortresses—understood what had just happened.
“Time reversal… This is time reversal. To think that the rumors are true…” Edwards immediately recalled the rumor that had spread across the multivariate universe. It was that the existences in the upper echelon of the Country of Delusions grasped the power over time reversal.
“It’s over. It’s meaningless. All of our movements are meaningless.” Edwards grabbed his hair. “Even if the entire number one magician empire, all the Doomsday Fortresses, or magician Marshals were to rush over, it would be meaningless. We are life forms that are on a completely different dimensional level from him.”
Although Edwards was unable to understand Fang Xingjian’s Sattva Sword Technique, it was at least still considered a type of attack that did not break away from the world’s logic.
However, time reversal—especially one that was done over such a great area—was no longer logical. It was impossible to explain this, and it was a miracle that surpassed the universe’s regulations. Just the thought of the various space-time paradoxes that resulted from this could make Edwards’s head ache for a very long time.
At this moment, he felt as if he had been training to level up in an online game for half a year, only to realize after coming out that there was actually a trade city in the game. In comparison to someone from the Country of Delusions, he was like an ordinary player going against a VIP level 15 1 player. The only thing he could do to resist was delete his account and stop playing the game.
On the other hand, when Yan Feibai looked at Fang Xingjian, his gaze was filled with a hint of ridicule. “To think that you can push me to the extent of using the Time Reversal Sand… You’re really amazing. For a aborigine, you’re already considered to be a miracle.
“But you should understand it now, right? At some point, it’s impossible to kill me. It’s useless no matter how many times you try. Yet as long as I can succeed once, you’re doomed.
“Moreover, you probably can’t afford to keep on launching that attack from earlier, right?
“Do you understand? You would at most be considered an ordinary player in this world while I’m a cash-paying player. This is an intrinsic difference that you can’t make up for with just hard work.”
Fang Xingjian did not say anything. He called back all the martial art projections with the exception of the Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection. Simultaneously, his conjured physique started to break down, and large amounts of cracks appeared on its surfaces. Streams of black nothingness extended out from the cracks on his conjured physique.
His life span was being burned, and his martial will was increasing crazily.
However, Yan Feibai smiled. “You can’t even sustain your form anymore, but you still want to fight with your life on the line?”
“Unable to sustain my form?” The corners of Fang Xingjian’s lips curled up, breaking into a hint of a brutal smile. “Idiot, don’t you understand? Sustaining this body isn’t for protecting me but for protecting you guys and this world.”
