    Chapter 526: Temporal Confinement
    Unimaginable, five thousand humans are charging towards the Skeleton Legion, outnumbered and outmatched!
    The ghostly beings in the sky witnessed this scene, their eyes showing a hint of solemnity, admiring the courage of the humans.
    Even as opponents, they deserve respect from us.
    The Ghost General’s Crescent Moon Blade swept forward, causing a dramatic change in the Skeleton Legion. The mythical creatures behind them paused under the Ghost General’s command, staying back.
    Dark mist began to swirl beneath the feet of the skeleton soldiers, their expressions solemn and sacred.
    Zhang Mu suddenly realized what the ghost general was planning and couldn’t help but gasp in surprise.
    If he wanted to show enough respect to the Red Flame Legion, then he would have to face them with his strongest power!
    Indeed, things were unfolding in the direction Zhang Mu least wanted.
    The illusionary black mist gradually solidified, holding the skeleton soldiers aloft in the air.
    In the next moment, nearly ten thousand hellish warhorses similar to the Ghostly Colt appeared beneath them.
    Black flames faced off against the approaching red flames!
    The Skeleton Legion were originally cavalry!
    He had only thought that the mission to clear out was just a minor one, nothing worth going all out for, so he had not summoned their mounts.
    Even though the current strength of the Red Flame Legion still didn’t qualify them for attention, just by being the first to charge towards their formation had earned them the right to be their opponents.
    But it’s only about using all their strength, because does this kind of knight spirit and courage show a way for the human race?
    That is absolutely impossible!
    The appearance of the Undead Legion must come back filled with blood and death!
    In everyone’s eyes, the Red Flame Legion’s attack is now seen as a suicide mission, even the stronger Beastman warriors are no match for these undead, let alone them.
    The Red Flame Legion only has one fate, and that is death.
    But those young soldiers are not afraid, the deputy leader leads the charge, the leader of the legion, the symbol of the entire Red Flame Legion, fights for them too.
    What is there to be afraid of?
    This may be related to the selection criteria of the Red Flame Legion, although strength is important, but everyone who can enter the Red Flame Legion is a brave person.
    Zhang Mu was locked on by the ghostly general and couldn’t move, the other side seemed very interested in him.
    This is a kind of pressure and curiosity from higher beings on ants.
    Just like when humans suddenly become interested in a strange ant.
    This gaze made Zhang Mu very unhappy, but he couldn’t do anything about it.
    Hachikuju and two others were restrained, Qian Lin and Cang Yu couldn’t stand up for the human race, they were also intimidated by the Undead Legion.
    As for the leaders of the other two camps, they had already blended in with the frightened soldiers and were of no use.
    The downfall of the Red Flame Legion seemed to have no hope of turning around.
    Just when the two armies were about to make contact, even with the soldiers of the Red Flame Legion ready to sacrifice, suddenly everything came to a halt.
    Including the powerful beings of the fourth rank of each tribe, Corpse Emperor, Azure Dragon Emperor, Cang Yu and others, all were frozen in place.
    But Zhang Mu noticed the unusual surroundings and was surprised to find that he could still move!
    Everyone’s expressions and movements were frozen in the previous second, they now looked like they were paused by a magical ripple of evolution.
    Even the dust lifted by the wind was frozen in the air, each soldier from the Red Flame Legion had a fixed expression, whether fierce, excited, or trying to hide their fear, like vivid statues.
    Time, frozen!
    “Feeling puzzled? This is the power of The Long River of Time.”
    A clear and familiar voice sounded in Zhang Mu’s ear, swiftly shifting his gaze.
    In this seemingly frozen time and space, a sea of flowers suddenly covered the blood-red ground without warning, and a figure approached with firm steps.
    The petals masked the oozing evil.
    Beauty bloomed above the evil.
    It’s Queen Vaidehi!
    Walking straight towards Zhang Mu, he suddenly exclaimed, “Queen Vaidehi, how come you are here? Is this your power finally at play?”
    Queen Vaidehi looked at Zhang Mu, raising an eyebrow, her cold and elegant demeanor gradually causing him to relax involuntarily.
    “I didn’t want to intervene, actually I couldn’t, but I didn’t expect things to escalate to this point.”
    Zhang Mu glanced around and realized he was the only one able to move freely. He gazed at Queen Vaidehi solemnly and asked, “Queen, why am I the only one able to act?”
    Queen Vaidehi’s tone was calm, yet her words carried a hidden air of authority.
    “It is the allowance of power.”
    Zhang Mu confirmed his guess, looked up cautiously, and asked, “Is it the power of time, Queen Vaidehi? Your awakening ability is related to time, right?”
    “I call it, The Long River of Time, my realm of awakening.”
    Queen Vaidehi slowly shifted her gaze, looking at the ghostly figures also frozen in place, and said slowly, “To be precise, I have only grasped time stillness, but the higher the caster’s rank, the shorter its duration.”
    The other strong warriors in the fourth-rank area are okay, but this ghost general is much stronger than me. Even though his power is suppressed to be the same as mine in this world, his level of evolution is still higher than mine.
    So I quickly couldn’t control that ghost general anymore.”
    Zhang Mu followed her gaze towards the ghost general in the sky. Indeed, unlike the others, the ghost general’s fingers holding the Crescent Moon Blade trembled slightly.
    “Why did you release the time and space constraints just for me in your domain?”
    Queen Vaidehi looked deeply at Zhang Mu and what she said next left Zhang Mu shocked in place.
    “I didn’t release the time and space constraints just for you. My Temporal Confinement is an indiscriminate attack, so even beings from the plant race are now restricted to this moment in time.”
    Zhang Mu, who was extremely sensitive to this matter, instantly realized what Queen Vaidehi was talking about. Clinging to a glimmer of hope, he quietly met the Queen’s gaze.
    That gaze seemed to see through everything about Zhang Mu, cruelly revealing the truth to him.
    The deepest secret in Zhang Mu’s heart had been uncovered.
    “In this field, only you and I are not bound by it. I am the master of this field.”
    Vaidehi’s usual cold voice finally showed a hint of emotion.
    In the blink of an eye, her calm and gentle demeanor changed abruptly. Her gaze was sharp like a sword piercing through Zhang Mu’s eyes.
    “And you, because you don’t belong in this time and space.”
