Chapter 672 - 671: The First Time Absorbing Feels This Good! The Sakura Ancient God Descends on Great Xia
Chapter 672: Chapter 671: The First Time Absorbing Feels This Good! The Sakura Ancient God Descends on Great Xia
Two bold theories instantly surfaced in Chu Sheng’s mind.
Either the person before him was a wisp of a remnant soul from Chronos, the God of Time.
Similar to Gu Yuexi’s situation.
Or, the person before him was a projection left behind by Chronos, the God of Time.
Similar to the projection of Xiaobai that Chu Sheng had once seen in the Spiritless Sea Region.
And the projection of Immortal Venerable Shi Xi in the Time Trace Hourglass.
In essence, they no longer existed in this world.
But because they had been too powerful in life,
their phantoms could freely travel through the river of time.
Xue had just said that this person had been watching them from the "future."
Chu Sheng surmised that Chronos, the God of Time, must have been setting up a grand game in the future.
And Chu Sheng and Xue’s unexpected appearance had disrupted the progress of this game.
That was why he had taken action, intending to eliminate them both.
Regardless of which possibility it was, this guy who called himself the God of Time had already made a move against him and Xue.
’In that case, I’ll just have to kill him.’
"I don’t care if you’re the God of Time."
"Anyone who dares to attack me, Lord Mosquito, is my enemy."
With a single thought from Chu Sheng,
twelve pitch-black Ancestral Witch God Statues instantly appeared in mid-air,
firmly surrounding Chronos.
[Witch God’s Fury! Fire!]
Chronos probably never expected it.
That Chu Sheng, a mere Emperor Realm mosquito, would dare to attack him first within his own Divine Country.
It wasn’t until twelve different types of the Power of Law intertwined and fused in the air, forming a massive black energy sphere, that Chronos finally reacted.
"Insolent! How dare you make a move inside my Divine Country."
"You truly don’t know your own limits!"
Chronos snorted coldly.
He swung the giant scythe in his hand.
With a tearing sound,
the space before him was sliced open.
A terrifying temporal turbulence instantly formed a massive black hole,
blocking the path of the attack from the Twelve Ancestral Witch God Statues.
The Witch God’s Fury, filled with world-ending power, plunged headfirst into the black hole.
Then, the black hole and the Witch God’s Fury vanished simultaneously without a sound.
The next second,
Chu Sheng vaguely sensed
that at some point in the past,
a massive explosion had occurred.
’He can actually banish an attack into the past. Interesting.’
Chu Sheng’s compound eyes glittered with even more excitement.
’If I can absorb Chronos’s Power of Time Law, perhaps I can obtain such a heaven-defying ability?’
But faced with this strange and unpredictable Power of Time Law,
Chu Sheng was in a bit of a bind.
He had to turn and ask Xue.
"Do you have any way to briefly control Chronos and stop him from using his Time Law?"
Xue nodded seriously. "I can."
"However, I can only control him for three seconds."
"Three seconds is more than enough."
Without hesitation, Chu Sheng unleashed all of his Domain powers except for the Mortal Realm.
Destruction Emperor Domain, Thunder Domain, Fire Domain...
Numerous Domains of different attributes unfurled simultaneously,
temporarily suppressing Chronos’s Time Domain into a very small area.
"Now!"
Following Chu Sheng’s command,
Xue immediately unleashed her own Time Domain.
The two Time Domains of the same attribute collided violently.
Time intersecting with time instantly threw all surrounding laws and order into chaos.
Chronos’s Time Domain,
at that moment, suddenly failed.
Before Chronos could react,
Chu Sheng immediately activated Instant Teleportation,
appearing behind Chronos the next second.
[Mortal Realm! Activate!]
As Chu Sheng’s Mortal Realm spread out,
an irresistible suppressive force instantly enveloped Chronos.
The Divine Power in Chronos’s body was instantly drained away.
He turned into an ordinary old man, utterly powerless.
Then, Chu Sheng extended his sharp proboscis
and viciously plunged it into the back of Chronos’s head.
[God-devouring Needle! Drain him!]
The Lv. 99 God-devouring Needle did not disappoint Chu Sheng.
[Ding! Absorbed one Top-Grade Divinity. Evolution Points +1,000,000]
[Ding! Detected Divine Domain Level Power of Time Law. Now automatically absorbing...]
[Ding! Time Law Comprehension +80,000!]
Holy crap!!!
A whole eighty thousand points of Time Law Comprehension!!!
From his rebirth until now, Chu Sheng had never felt so incredible from a single absorption!
The only regret was that he hadn’t managed to absorb Chronos’s skill for redirecting attacks.
But Chu Sheng had a feeling.
That this skill had already planted a seed within his Time Law.
At some point in the future, it would grow into a powerful skill.
As for Chronos,
he was in a miserable state.
Already ancient, he was now aging even more rapidly before their very eyes.
The wrinkles on his face became so deep you could trap a mosquito in them.
His hair grew even more sparse and gray.
In the blink of an eye, he was nothing but skin and bones.
"Damn you, mosquito! What have you done to me?!!!"
Chronos used his last ounce of strength to let out an enraged roar.
Chu Sheng politely waved his front legs.
"Nothing much. Lord Mosquito just thought your time skills were pretty fun and wanted to see if I could suck them over."
"A bit of a shame, though. Doesn’t seem like I managed to get them."
"What?"
Chronos was completely dumbfounded.
He had lived for countless years and had never seen anything so absurd.
Someone could actually directly absorb another’s Power of Law!
Chu Sheng couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words on Chronos.
He directly activated the Twelve Ancestral Witch God Statues again.
[Witch God’s Fury!]
An even more terrifying energy blast slammed squarely into Chronos,
instantly turning him to dust.
While absorbing Chronos, Chu Sheng had obtained a lot of useful information.
This collapsing grotto-heaven was indeed the Divine Country of Chronos, the God of Time.
The opponent was merely a wisp of a remnant soul from Chronos, the God of Time.
Besides that,
Chu Sheng also learned a most crucial piece of information.
In the city to the east lay the true treasure vault of Chronos, the God of Time!
As the second-generation god-king of Greek mythology,
Chronos’s vault was sure to be filled with good things.
"Xue, let’s go."
"Let’s head to the city in the east and see what goodies are in Chronos’s vault."
"Mm."
Xue nodded.
She once again activated the Time Law,
sending the human and the mosquito back to the normal timeline.
Chu Sheng got his bearings.
He then grabbed Xue and used Instant Teleportation, flying toward the city to the east.
「Meanwhile.」
Above the skies of Kyoto in Great Xia,
space suddenly twisted.
Two uninvited guests appeared out of thin air above the clouds.
A man and a woman.
The man wore a green headband and a white Samurai uniform.
The woman wore a red kimono, her face adorned with exquisite makeup.
The woman snuggled in the man’s arms and spoke softly, her voice sweet and coquettish.
"Brother, this must be Kyoto of Great Xia."
The man nodded slowly,
his icy gaze sweeping over the bustling city below.
Then, he suddenly channeled his Divine Power
and shouted in a voice like a clap of thunder.
"People of Great Xia, listen up! Immediately hand over the mosquito that destroyed my Sakura Empire!"
"Otherwise, I shall make all of Kyoto a tomb for Sakura!"
