Chapter 1494 Space-Time Regression
Ancestral God Temple.
Wang Mian rested in place for a long time before slowly standing up with Lin Qiye’s support.
Bang—!
The process of dissolution had not stopped. This was the first time Lin Qiye witnessed a human body being crushed by laws and then restored through the reversal of time at such close range.
“Are you alright?” Lin Qiye asked worriedly.
“…I’m fine, just a bit painful.” Wang Mian’s expression was extremely haggard. He took a deep breath and smiled bitterly, “So this is what it means to be the God of Time…”
In Wang Mian’s pupils, a pair of time rings with head and tail connected flowed slowly. Lin Qiye felt dizzy just by making eye contact with him.
“What about your lifespan? Has it been extended?”
“I suppose so…” Wang Mian closed his eyes to sense for a moment, “Becoming a god brings some changes to the physical body. I can feel that my lifespan has been extended by nearly thirty years, but…”
“But what?”
“Suppressing this thing comes at a price.”
Wang Mian pointed at the blood mist dispersing from his dissolving body and spoke bitterly, “Using time reversal at such high frequency, I can feel my lifespan draining much faster than before… If I don’t use [Time Sequence Rebel] to alter history, I should still have seven or eight years to live.”
“Seven or eight years?”
Lin Qiye was slightly stunned.
After Wang Mian reached the human limit, he only had two years left to live. He had thought that breaking through to the divine realm would significantly increase his lifespan, which it did… but the dissolution process greatly reduced it again. Compared to before, it only extended by five or six years.
Moreover, during these years, Wang Mian would have to constantly endure the pain of dissolution… He hadn’t conquered dissolution; he was merely using the law of time to forcibly extend his life.
“If we can return, this queen will gift you a peach of immortality, which should add another thirty years to your lifespan,” said the Queen Mother of the West who was standing nearby.
Thirty years of lifespan under the acceleration of dissolution would translate to about seven or eight years for Wang Mian. Together that would give him fifteen more years… of course, this was assuming he didn’t use his ability to alter history.
Wang Mian bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother, “Thank you for your generous gift, Queen Mother.”
“A single peach is nothing, but it pains me… that you must constantly endure such suffering.” Lingbao Tianzun sighed, “There is no second Ye Fan in this world, and even I cannot give you another body. After I return, I will begin crafting medicine for you to alleviate your pain and extend your lifespan further.”
“Thank you, Tianzun.”
The gods of Great Xia had basically finished their breathing exercises, all having planted the “anchors” of Earth’s source within them. Having already explored the Ancestral God Temple, everyone waited on the platform, either cultivating or resting, relying on the temple’s own forward momentum to slowly move toward the other side of the wall.
At this moment, Zuo Qing seemed to think of something and asked:
“Wang Mian, can you reverse time to before Zeus and the others invaded Great Xia, to warn us about that gray mist sphere in advance?”
Hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up simultaneously as they turned to look at Wang Mian.
Wang Mian’s [Time Sequence Rebel] possessed the ability to travel through time, change history, and ignore temporal paradoxes. Since he had become the God of Time, reversing time by a few days shouldn’t be difficult. If they could make their past selves avoid being banished by Zeus, they could return directly to Earth.
The only flaw was that they wouldn’t be able to absorb the “anchors” of Earth’s source again, but compared to waiting here until death, they would rather return to Earth directly.
Wang Mian shook his head helplessly, “We are on the other side of the space-time wall. The difference between us and being banished by Zeus isn’t just a few days, but tens of thousands of years of space-time. With my lifespan, I simply cannot reverse tens of thousands of years…”
Hearing this, the hope that had just ignited in everyone’s eyes was completely extinguished.
Lingbao Tianzun opened his mouth, about to say something, when suddenly a ripple in space-time appeared above everyone!
Like throwing a huge stone into a calm pond, right in this section of the space-time wall, on the other side, a terrifying force was knocking on space-time, as if waiting for their response.
Lingbao Tianzun was stunned, then abruptly stood up, his eyes bursting with joy.
“Someone on the other side of the wall is taking action!” After becoming the God of Time, Wang Mian’s perception of time was extremely sensitive. He narrowed his eyes and continued, “It’s from our original space-time.”
“Are the other two Tianzun taking action?”
“Have they found us?”
Those who had been meditating immediately stood up, exclaiming with excitement.
Without another word, Lingbao Tianzun’s divine power surged. A massive Primordial Infinite Void opened beneath his feet, and terrifying supreme divine might whipped up fierce winds that raged through every corner of the Ancestral God Temple.
His Taoist robe danced wildly in the wind as Lingbao Tianzun raised his jade ruyi scepter, formed a hand seal with one hand, softly chanting something, then pointed toward the sky.
Crack—!!!
A bolt of primordial lightning burst from the void beneath his feet, instantly shattering the ripple in the sky. Dense cracks spread across the surface of the space-time wall, and turbulent space-time currents surged forth!
Lingbao Tianzun waved his hand, and that Primordial Taoist Boat appeared again, expanding rapidly in the space-time currents.
“Board the boat!” Lingbao Tianzun said, “Follow this poor Taoist… home.”
Everyone immediately transformed into streaks of light and landed on the Primordial Taoist Boat. After confirming that everyone was present, the boat headed straight toward the surging space-time currents.
As the ripple gradually dissipated, the figures of everyone completely disappeared from the Ancestral God Temple.
After they left, a sigh echoed through the deathly silent Ancestral God Temple…
“These juniors… are truly rowdy.” A deep, majestic voice sounded from the Wind Ancestor stone array.
“Should we take this opportunity to return to Earth’s timeline with them?” A gentle female voice came from the Water Ancestor stone array.
“Return? In our current state, we can barely stay alive. What could we do if we went back?” This voice came from the Fire Ancestor stone array.
“Now is not the time to return.” The Dark Ancestor’s voice followed immediately, “That person said to let us stay here and recover. When the time is right, he will come to take us back…”
“That person? He really said that?”
“Yes.”
“Very well… I wonder what that person is truly thinking.”
“How could we possibly fathom that person’s thoughts?”
“In any case, with him there, Earth should not be easily destroyed… let’s wait patiently.”
“I wonder how that fellow Hunting Ancestor is doing on Earth…”
