Chapter 1436: The Heavenly Time God
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The boundless divine might descending from the sky had almost forced all of the snow maidens to their knees, but this divine might did not affect An Lin in the slightest. Ever since he had attained his Great Divine Might Technique, there was no longer any being that could flex before him.
The clouds parted.
A golden figure appeared before everyone.
The golden figure’s entire body was basked in a golden divine light, and it had the appearance of an extremely beautiful snow maiden.
However, her body was semi-transparent, as if she were the most beautiful and flawless jade stone.
She wore an extremely eye-catching divine halo on it, consisting of a golden light that revolved so quickly that An Lin was completely unable to keep up. If it wasn’t for the fact that there were bursts of energy fluctuations coming from it that suggested it was constantly moving, An Lin wouldn’t even be able to tell that the divine halo was revolving at all.
An Lin could sense a familiar power from that divine halo. It was a different type of power, but its basis was the same. There was no doubt about it. This was also a representative of the Heavenly Dao!
He just didn’t know what power this representative possessed.
Just as An Lin was thinking about all this, the living being suddenly turned toward him, and a hint of emotion appeared in her indifferent eyes.
“You absorbed my power?
“Why is it that I can sense the heavenly wind and lightning powers from you?”
The mysterious being spoke with excitement and confusion on her face.
An Lin blinked before replying, “They acknowledged me and decided to bestow their powers upon me.”
Perhaps this lie would work?
Sure enough, the golden snow maiden fell silent, as if she was thinking about something.
A short while later, the divine halo on her head suddenly began to glow even more brightly before making a buzzing sound.
She extended a shiny, golden index finger and tapped the divine halo above her head.
An ethereal, holy voice sounded, “What’s going on, Time?”
“Light, I’m at the Opposite Shore Realm of the Tai Chu Continent. I discovered a being who has taken the powers of lightning and wind, and I decided to report this to you. I was initially planning to kill him, what do you think?” the golden snow maiden asked.
The voice gave a firm reply from the divine halo, “He has to die.”
The golden snow maiden: “Roger that.”
An Lin: “…”
Ok, it looked like that lie didn’t work after all…
However… These two were referring to each other as Time and Light. So this living being’s power was light?
An Lin was starting to panic a little. The daos of light and time were all extremely abstract and very rarely were there any mighty figures who dabbled in those powers. On top of that, this was a representative of the Heavenly Dao, so she was most likely going to be an extremely formidable opponent…
He could sense the killing intent coming from the golden snow maiden, and he immediately raised a hand. “Time, do you know why Wind and Lightning willingly allowed me to inherit their powers?”
The golden snow maiden remained expressionless, as if she hadn’t heard what An Lin was saying. She raised a hand toward An Lin before letting it fall. “Ten-Year Sword.”
Space rippled, and a sharp, golden sword streaked through the air.
An Lin’s lips twitched, and he finally gave up on trying to talk his way out of this. His aura quickly soared explosively as he activated his Origin Energy of the Netherworld, Fire God Mode, and Star Vein Divine Technique at the same time!
He could sense the passing of time from that sword. The sword itself was imbued with the Heavenly Time Power, and just the sword intent escaping from it was capable of slicing through mountains and parting oceans!
The Great Empress’ expression shifted drastically. “Get into the formation and protect yourselves!”
Countless blue, defensive barriers and formations began to appear.
At this moment, the golden snow maiden’s Ten-Year Sword had already fallen.
An Lin’s expression became extremely grave, and he was just about to use his Evil-Slaying Sword to defend himself when the light sword flashed past instantaneously at the speed of light. It was moving far too quickly for him to react to!
There was no earth-shattering boom as anticipated.
The golden snow maiden a.k.a the Heavenly Time God’s sword seemed to be imbued with a terrifying power, but it fell like insubstantial smoke and mist, as if it had never even appeared.
All of the snow maidens were confused. They were unable to figure out what had just happened.
However, An Lin’s pupils contracted drastically. His heart was quickly failing, and all of the cells within his body were aging at an alarming rate, some of which had already perished…
He understood now.
He knew what the snow maidens’ death timers were.
This was not the power of death. Instead, it was the Heavenly Time Power. She was using the paramount Heavenly Time Power to end the lives of her targets! Her power was like planting a seed of time into the target’s body, which would quickly make them age to death.
This power was unavoidable unless the target was a living being on the same plane of existence as her!
An Lin surveyed the changes taking place within his body with an expression of shock and horror. If it weren’t for his insane life force, he would’ve died from old age just from that sword strike alone.
The Heavenly Time God was also looking at An Lin with shock and confusion on her face. “That’s strange… Has my power been restricted to such an extent? Why is it that your physical body is wasting away, but the true substance of your life remains unchanged, as if it has been permanently locked in its current condition…”
An Lin didn’t know what she was saying, but he still gritted his teeth and pounced toward the Heavenly Time God!
He had to take the initiative and end this battle quickly. Otherwise, he was going to waste away sooner or later!
The Heavenly Time God harrumphed coldly. “My power really has been restricted to an astonishing extent. In the past, I would’ve been able to easily seal your death with that one sword strike.”
Just as she was speaking, she extended a shiny, golden hand and gripped the air before her.
All of a sudden, time stopped.
Everything in this world was frozen in time.
Regardless of whether it was the snow maidens or the Celestial Thearch, or the flora and fauna and the clouds and wind in the sky… Everything was completely stationary, frozen along with the passage of time.
Only the Heavenly Time God stood proudly between heaven and earth while exuding a boundless divine light.
Her eyes seemed to be able to see through all things, and she said in a cold voice, “No matter how weak or how powerful you are, everything is as insignificant as dust to me.”
In the face of time, everything would be reduced to nothingness.
However, in the next instant.
A man continued to charge toward her.
His violent movement created a jarring contrast with the stationary world around him.
A wind divine halo had appeared on his head, creating an impregnable barrier that kept all powers at bay…
The man in action was none other than An Lin!
After enduring the Heavenly Time God’s Ten-Year Sword strike, he knew that this was going to be an extremely difficult enemy to defeat, so he unleashed his power of the Heavenly Wind God from the get-go!
It was also because of this that he was only just able to avoid being frozen in time like everyone and everything else.
“Heavenly Blade!” An Lin hurtled toward the Heavenly Time God like a flaming meteorite before slashing down upon her with his Evil-Slaying Sword, which was imbued with his heavenly wind power!
The Heavenly Time God was stunned momentarily by the sight of the oncoming An Lin, and in that split second, her body was sliced in half by An Lin’s Heavenly Blade!
