Wang Teng's combat power surged after a soul resonance with the newly born Di Jiang. As Wang Teng absorbed insights from Di Jiang’s mastery over space-time, Guang Yin Ancestor activated his trump card, the Time Divine Sun Dial. Wang Teng launched a powerful counter-attack, but Guang Yin Ancestor used Time Sacrifice, causing rapid aging and a drastic drop in Wang Teng's power, shattering his illusions and avatars.
A faint death energy emanated from his entire being, making Guang Yin Ancestor appear like an elder on his last breath. It truly seemed as though he would perish from old age within the next minute. Just then, Wang Teng's descending strike finally made contact! That palm slammed forcefully onto Guang Yin Ancestor’s forehead! "Slap~!" A sharp sound echoed! Wang Teng’s hand even felt a flicker of pain! In the subsequent second, he was shocked to discover a small, chubby hand on Guang Yin Ancestor’s exposed forehead. Could that be his own hand? Wang Teng shifted his thoughts, and the small hand lifted slightly. This! It was indeed his own hand! Then, with growing dread, he noticed his attire had become excessively large, akin to a child clad in adult clothing. He quickly examined himself and was instantly rendered speechless! He found himself reverted to the form of a two-year-old, his internal power completely extinguished. At this juncture, he wasn't even considered Yellow Tier Realm, having become a mere, ordinary child! At this moment, Guang Yin Ancestor, with several missing teeth, opened his mouth and gazed at Wang Teng with a malevolent grin. "Haha~! I have succeeded!" Guang Yin Ancestor let out a triumphant laugh. His aged and unsightly appearance seemed exceptionally hideous! "What... what is happening?" Wang Teng couldn't help but question, his voice laced with astonishment. His voice was incredibly childlike. Guang Yin Ancestor looked at Wang Teng with excitement and cackled cruelly, "Little thief! I sacrificed a thousand years of my life precisely to make you regress by 20 years!" "I merely assumed you looked young; I never anticipated you were genuinely so! Regressing 20 years has transformed you into an insignificant infant now!" "Magnificent! Truly magnificent! You are indeed a rare demonic genius of the ages! Yet, this technique of mine specifically counters prodigies like you!" "The more rapidly you ascend, the greater the benefit for me! Haha!" Guang Yin Ancestor guffawed triumphantly! His aged face flushed with excitement. Such a formidable Wang Teng was instantly neutralized by his ultimate trump card! Ultimately, victory belonged to him! Boom~! Wang Teng's tender body trembled intensely! He finally grasped the sequence of events and was utterly astounded. He had never conceived that such bizarre divine techniques could exist in this world. At this point, Wang Teng felt an urge to unleash a torrent of curses internally! Fortunately, it was only a 20-year rewind; a 30-year regression would have rendered him less than a tadpole! Furthermore, the expenditure for this divine technique was considerable! Yet, it was potent enough to decisively suppress him, a rapidly ascending, demonic-level prodigy! Following his elation, Guang Yin Ancestor eyed Wang Teng with a wicked glint. "Little thing! You have finally fallen into my grasp! Watch as I crush you with but a single finger!" Guang Yin Ancestor laughed triumphantly, extending a withered finger to obliterate Wang Teng. Instinctively, Wang Teng attempted to evade. In the next instant, he horrifyingly realized he was ensnared by Guang Yin Ancestor's force field, utterly immobilized! "Haha~! You still seek to flee? This time, let's see how you relish being crushed inch by inch!" Guang Yin Ancestor roared with laughter! That withered finger descended slowly towards Wang Teng! He yearned to savor the sensation of Wang Teng's annihilation! At this precise moment, Guang Yin Ancestor's smile twisted into one of extreme grimness and malevolence! Wang Teng gazed at the approaching digit, terror palpable in his eyes. He desperately wished to break free, to fight back! But now, he possessed less strength than an ordinary adult; how could he possibly escape Guang Yin Ancestor's control! In reality, even without Elder Guang Yin's binding force field, he would have plummeted from the sky long ago! Could it be that his demise was imminent, here and now? At this instant, Wang Teng's heart plummeted! Hmm? No! Suddenly, Wang Teng perceived something out of the ordinary. Why had his mind not reverted to the state of a two-year-old? Was this an intentional omission by Guang Yin Ancestor, or a flaw in the technique? Or perhaps... It was the work of Creation! He distinctly felt his Creation Value remained at 52 times that of an ordinary person, completely unaffected. Could it be that Creation itself was impervious to this divine technique, thereby preserving his consciousness? Upon this realization, Wang Teng's eyes lit up. This was an opportunity! And an anchor! An anchor within the River of Time! But how should he extricate himself from this predicament?! He must have subconsciously employed Creation to safeguard his mind; there had to be another element enabling a reversal! Found it! Space-Time Origin! When he was subjected to the Time Sacrifice, he was in the midst of comprehending Talent. The Lord of Creation facilitates the Talent comprehension process. In other words, the Power of Creation had been continuously influencing the Talent comprehension. Thus, the Talent comprehension process was, in fact, still actively progressing!Suddenly, a familiar and ethereal mechanical voice echoed within his thoughts... [Shared insights successful! You have comprehended the SS-level Space-Time Origin.] [Your Time Talent and Spatial Talent have been significantly enhanced.] [Spatial Instant: The distance for instantaneous teleportation has increased tenfold.] [Space Summon: A new divine technique, Heaven and Earth Shifting, has been derived.] [Breaking Realm Art: Its power has been amplified tenfold.] [Time Reversal: The divine technique's cooldown period is now reduced to 5 minutes.] [You have automatically awakened the Space-Time Divine Technique - Time Travel (Peak of Middle-Grade Divine Tier).] BOOM! RUMBLE! RUMBLE! concurrently, the withered finger of Ancestor Guang Yin had reached Wang Teng's glabella, poised to pierce his forehead. At this critical juncture, Wang Teng didn't hesitate, channeling all his Heart Power to activate the Divine Tier divine technique – Time Travel! However, lacking any Spiritual Power, he theoretically should have been unable to activate this technique.
