Chapter 801 - 25: The Possibility of Reshaping
Chapter 801: Chapter 25: The Possibility of Reshaping
Hei Yang had considered many possibilities.
Such as the Nine Heavens Opening Sword sending them directly across space to the Barbaric Land in the starry sky, making it difficult to develop, or, worse yet, directly sending them near the Silver Light World, leaving them even more unlucky and powerless to resist.
He originally thought they were lucky this time, arriving in a world where only the Ninth Realm existed, easy to conquer, and rise quickly.
He was even more surprised to learn there were two regions.
It was like a windfall!
As for the intelligence about a Tenth Realm, he paid attention but didn’t think he would fail.
The most likely outcome was cooperation after a battle.
But reality gave him a harsh slap.
Battle?
The entity known as the Lifeless True Saint didn’t even appear and already weakened them three in the Tenth Realm to such an extent, needless to say how powerful he was.
Losing the Nine Heavens Opening Sword, their biggest card, made Hei Yang lose his composure, but he soon recovered.
Without their biggest card, they were already weakened to such a degree.
Where was the confidence to negotiate?
“You must be the Lifeless True Saint. Your methods are indeed powerful, we failed this time!”
Hei Yang didn’t speak any harsh words.
To the strong, the methods aren’t important, as long as you possess them.
Clearly, the curse was very effective.
Having fallen prey, they were also convinced internally.
“But you haven’t killed us, there must be a reason for that. You probably want us to join you!”
They were now three in the Tenth Realm, combined they couldn’t resist.
Not being killed suggested another motive.
Other than taking them in to help with tasks, he couldn’t think of another reason.
If it were the Devouring Sect’s world, they would be dead by now!
Wang Sheng didn’t deny it.
Three in the Tenth Realm plus other strong individuals made quite a formidable force.
They could also provide a large amount of scattered spiritual power and Life Essence Qi.
So he nodded and said: “Since you know the outcome, what is your choice, surrender or destruction?”
No third choice.
Either surrender, or die.
Hei Yang knew it well: “We choose to surrender, though do you truly trust us?”
They were, after all, three strong individuals in the Tenth Realm; if they were to do things for him, lifting the curse was essentially required. Could the Lifeless True Saint handle them under such circumstances and ensure they work with peace of mind?
This was both a question and a probe.
While he knew there would certainly be limitations, being in the Tenth Realm, he still maintained some reserve.
Wang Sheng naturally heard the underlying meaning, he smiled indifferently, and soon lifted Hei Yang’s curse.
Hei Yang could feel the mysterious force that had been devouring him disappear, his strength slowly recovering, though it would take quite some time to fully recover.
This was the curse; even after it’s lifted, it’s not pleasant for the cursed.
He instantly understood Wang Sheng’s meaning: “You want me to try, but it will take time for my injuries to fully heal.”
“That’s indeed the plan, as for the injuries…” Wang Sheng waved his hand again.
The Time Dice appeared, Wang Sheng wielding the power of Time Retrospection.
Injuries that originally required years to heal were restored instantly.
Hei Yang’s eyes widened; he was knowledgeable, and could vaguely speculate what the power entailed.
“The power of time… actually directly reversed my state!”
He was in the Tenth Realm, yet could be reversed.
This alone, from this glimpse, showed the strength of this person.
Wang Sheng seemed like he was casually doing something: “Alright, your injuries are healed, then let’s begin!”
Hei Yang knew what this meant.
A test of strength!
Though he had realized from that previous display that he had no hope even in a direct confrontation.
But as someone in the Tenth Realm, he wouldn’t give up just like that.
Without warning, he struck!
Tremendous and boundless energy erupted, a Fiery Sun appeared in the starry sky, as if to burn everything to ashes.
Hei Yang acted by using his trump card!
Fiery Sun Burning Sky!
But—
Wang Sheng looked at this apocalyptic scene, completely unconcerned, even smiling slightly. The stronger, the more beneficial for him:
“A commendable technique, but pity you met me!”
With that, he produced a square seal.
The seal rotated through the four seasons, seemingly experiencing countless lives, revealing under endless time, the demise of countless beings.
“Space-time Domain!”
Time and space erupted simultaneously, enveloping a vast area in the starry sky, and in a flash, everything was frozen.
The entire region’s space fell under Wang Sheng’s control.
The originally terrifying Fiery Sun was like a frozen red sphere.
“Shatter!”
With a word, the Fiery Sun was destroyed, Hei Yang suffering massive injuries and if not for mercy, already dead.
Seeing this, Wang Sheng dispersed the Space-time Domain,
“Even stronger than I imagined…”
His willingness to lift the curse was partly for intimidation, and more so for testing his own strength.
As it turns out, the results were quite good.
Without the Nine Heavens Opening Sword, a treasure of the Tenth Realm, three were not enough, and ten wouldn’t suffice.
Understanding his strength, he looked at the still panic-stricken eyes of Hei Yang and said: “How do you feel now?”
Hei Yang thoroughly understood the gap in strength.
Such strength, even with the Nine Heavens Opening Sword in hand, along with Bai Yue and Hua Yu’s aid, the three in the Tenth Realm together, might not be his match.
Nothing more than more effort spent.
