Family Management Game In Immortal Continent Chapter 812: Time
Previously on Family Management Game In Immortal Continent...
Riiip!
The divine statues let out a thunderous boom.
Within the Void Refining Space, the saber shadows unleashed by Zhao Tingyu’s technique continued to hack at his foes. However, at this crucial juncture, Zhao Tingyu failed to press his advantage.
He was unable to even maintain the techniques required to demolish the remaining divine statues.
In fact, he was retreating!
A hunt was underway, and the prey was Zhao Tingyu. His pursuer was one of the two most overlooked figures on the battlefield—the Li Family Old Ancestor!
“How can this be... how did you manage to wound me? I sensed nothing... How is it possible that I didn't perceive it?!!”
The Void Refining Space was a restricted domain.
As Zhao Tingyu scrambled through this area—which felt far too cramped for a Void Refining cultivator—he gripped his left shoulder tightly.
His Dharma Treasure robe had been shredded; through the jagged tear, he could feel his own exposed flesh and bone. Before his eyes, his fingers were painted a vivid crimson with blood!
“It isn't space. This is definitely not space. It is...”
He kept his spiritual senses locked behind him.
That Old Ancestor Li was still utilizing the “Heaven, Earth” technique to teleport, dancing through the gaps of his saber blades. But suddenly, his perception failed him.
A sense of impending doom, more intense than before, flared in his heart, causing him to lunge forward desperately!
By the time he grasped what had occurred...
Riiip!
Another spear thrust found its mark. His shoulder blade was carved with a fresh wound!
...
“Time!”
Grand Elder Puci watched the pursuit within the space, his eyes wide with shock.
“This is impossible!”
He had also detected Old Ancestor Li’s ability to teleport. Such a skill was considered peerless in this world; it was a supreme technique whether used for assassination or escape. Even the lowest-tier manual containing a teleportation technique would be a treasure lusted after by those in the Void Refining realm.
They would hope that by reaching a profound level of mastery, they could use the technique as a gateway to comprehend the “Law of Space” itself.
Typically, reaching the Void Refining realm grants a cultivator an inherent understanding of space. By burning massive quantities of spiritual power, teleportation can be achieved, and one can simultaneously detect even the most minute spatial ripples.
Naturally, Grand Elder Puci was capable of sensing teleportation techniques.
Yet, at the moment Old Ancestor Li moved, Puci felt absolutely no spatial fluctuation. Despite the lack of ripples, Old Ancestor Li had appeared right next to Zhao Tingyu as if by a miracle.
This was something the Space Laws could never achieve.
“It can only be Time Laws... This...”
A look of horror crossed Grand Elder Puci’s face.
Among the Laws of the world, Time was undoubtedly the most enigmatic and formidable. He had only encountered mentions of it in ancient, dusty records; he had never heard of a single modern cultivator capable of wielding such Laws or techniques.
“To think I actually... told a cultivator who understands Time Laws to merely hold the line?”
In his shock, he had even forgotten to continue the fight. No—with Zhao Tingyu being hunted by Old Ancestor Li, his assistance was no longer required. At most, he only needed to guard the perimeter for Old Ancestor Li to ensure Zhao Tingyu could not flee.
Grand Elder Puci glanced toward Li Dalong and Li Yaozu. Seeing that the father and son were also frozen in stunned silence, the flush of shame that had colored his face began to fade.
Within this space—saturated with a Sea of Blood, lethal Metal energy, drifting mists, and bone-chilling cold—Old Ancestor Li manifested once more in front of Zhao Tingyu.
In this instant, all other Laws and techniques seemed to lose their luster.
“A true Monster.”
...
“Heaven, Earth, and the Mortal Realm!”
“Pagoda, Suppress!”
Dong!
The Yin-Yang Fish Diagram swirled and danced.
Li Wei pulled back the pagoda, summoned it once more, and channeled his spiritual power to ring the bell for suppression. He followed up with a lethal strike from the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear—all executed in a single, seamless motion!
This was his debut action since breaking through to the Void Refining realm.
As a Void Refining cultivator, his spiritual power was far more potent, the teleportation speed of “Heaven, Earth, and the Mortal Realm” was swifter, and the spiritual energy provided by the Yin-Yang Fish Diagram was more concentrated. Furthermore, his Yin-Yang bloodline made the quality of his spiritual power even more resilient.
“I... I actually struck him?”
When the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear sank into Zhao Tingyu’s flesh, Li Wei was momentarily dazed.
He knew he could evade Zhao Tingyu’s lethal strikes using “Heaven, Earth, and the Mortal Realm,” and he had already felt that his current power was immense. However, when the spear actually connected, Li Wei found it hard to believe!
He could still feel the heavy pressure and suppression radiating from Zhao Tingyu’s vast spiritual power.
With that first strike, he had only hoped to cause Zhao Tingyu some minor trouble; he had even braced himself to be swatted aside by the Zhao clan member, just as Li Yaozu had been.
After all, he was also utilizing the “Void-Soul Exchanging Dao Technique,” just like Li Yaozu. He had been traveling constantly and hadn't found a moment to master the manipulation of space; his command over Void Refining spiritual power was even more unrefined than Li Yaozu’s.
But now he understood—he had vastly underestimated the true scale of his own strength!
Li Wei didn't have the luxury of standing idle. As Zhao Tingyu fled, he gave chase.
His mind was racing, yet he still hadn’t fully processed the “pleasant surprise” of wounding Zhao Tingyu. He closed the distance once more!
Riiip!
He lunged at Zhao Tingyu again.
The nearer he drew to Zhao Tingyu, the more he felt as if he were wading through a thick quagmire! Nevertheless, the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear found its target again.
The Yin-Yang Fish from his remaining Divinity Transformation Domain expanded, and the Glacial Laws from his core permeated the entire space.
Zhao Tingyu continued to flee. But this time, Li Wei came to a halt.
He stopped the pursuit. Instead, he allowed his spiritual power to saturate the Void Refining Space.
“Time.”
