Without further ado, Woodcarving raised his blade and slashed at Undying Deity. Undying Deity's lips curled up, and withered yellow hair gathered on his arm before spreading out to form a withered yellow blade that slashed at Woodcarving.
Everyone held their breaths as they witnessed the peak of sword techniques in the current universe.
This was a pure showdown of saber techniques. Everyone was dumbfounded. Every saber move and every saber strike seemed ordinary, but it was filled with unimaginable power. Every saber move was as smooth as flowing water. Even if it was broken, it could be repaired with the next saber move. The seemingly casual saber move caused the stars to tremble and the space-time to shake.
Everyone's gaze was replaced by the gleam of the blade, and there was nothing else in their eyes.
Lu Yin stared at the duel closely. Woodcarving's sword technique was too casual, but the more casual it was, the more it could resolve Undying Deity's attack.
Undying Deity's every strike seemed ordinary, but it had already broken free from his control of the blade. He did not need the blade and could leave it at any time.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Sounds of collisions rang out as the Undying God fought excitedly. Mu Carving's face grew heavier and heavier. 18, 19, 27, 32. It was clearly a duel between sabers, but the Undying God had already struck the back of his saber 32 times. He intentionally struck the back of the saber. At first, he did not feel anything, but as the number of strikes increased, Mu Carving found that his saber was becoming more and more uncontrollable. The saber had become heavier, or lighter, he did not know.
Opposite him, Undying Deity's withered yellow blade slashed horizontally, and Woodcarving raised his blade to block it. With a bang, he should have been able to block the attack, but he missed by a hair's breadth.
Woodcarving's body retreated, leaving behind traces of blood on his neck.
Lu Yin's expression changed, "Daheng, attack."
Daheng was apprehensive, but he had to attack at this moment. He was the only one present who was a Sequence Law powerhouse, and he could participate in the battle against Undying Deity.
Woodcarving touched his neck, "Your blade technique is admirable."
Undying Deity waved his hand, and traces of blood fell from the withered yellow blade, "I've been in charge of the Martial Tablet countless times, and I've seen too many weapons used to kill. Aside from those with Heaven's Eye, no one is my match. Your strikes are too casual, which proves that your control of the blade has reached the peak. However, the more you do so, the easier it is to be destroyed by your control. Hehe, I can teach you, but unfortunately, you will die here today."
Woodcarving raised his head, "I won't die. You can't kill me."
"Is that so? Why?" The Undying Deity looked past the wooden carving and at Mr. Daheng, "Just because of you?"
As he spoke, the withered yellow hair continuously extended outwards. The entire starry sky became a dark yellow color, decaying and withering.
Lu Yin could clearly see with his Celestial Vision that the Undying God's sequence particles were spreading wildly, and he was no longer competing in sword techniques.
The Undying Deity was inherited from Wu Tian. In terms of weapons, there was really no one who was a match for him. Even his senior brother had lost, but that was only in terms of saber techniques. If they wanted to surround and kill him, they had to break his rules and talent.
Mister Daheng raised his hand and the void was sliced apart. Using the law of lightness, the space in front of him was completely light. The space in front of him was compressed towards the center, forming a slashing force.
The Undying Deity did not move at all. When this law passed by, it did not cause any harm to him.
The withered yellow hair wrapped around Mr. Daheng and the wooden carving like an evil spirit.
Mister Daheng was afraid and used rules against rules.
Wood Carving stepped on the hair and approached the Undying Deity at extreme speed. He slashed down with his blade, using the Sequence Rule – Break.
The Undying Deity's body was illusory, and the wooden carving's blade passed through it without injuring it.
The Undead God and the wood carving crossed each other. His feet stepped in reverse, and time and space were in chaos.
The withered yellow hair stuck to the wood carving's back.
At that moment, a stream of light flashed past. The wood carving broke free from the hair and turned around to slash.
The Undying Deity raised his hand and used his finger sword technique. With a bang, the wood carving's blade was blocked.
Pfft!
The Undying Deity spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body became illusory again.
Lu Yin was surprised. He was not injured by his senior brother, but was originally injured. This was the result of his battle with the Great Heavenly Venerate and Patriarch Lu Yuan.
He had to leave him behind today.
The Undying Deity looked at Lu Yin and revealed a sinister smile. "No one can break my innate gift."
Lu Yin's eyes flashed, and he raised his hand. When things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction.
The Undying Deity laughed maniacally. "I'm withering, and withering is also withering. However, my withering drags people to death, while his withering revives them. How disgusting."
"In the Primordial Space, we were rejected, and I was entangled by the Ancestral Mang. That was why you could do whatever you wanted. Now, do you really think that when things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction can break my innate gift?"
Lu Yin stopped. He could not hit the Undying Deity at all.
The wood carving and Mister Daheng attacked at the same time, using laws to attack the Undying Deity, but they were still dodged by the Undying Deity's innate gift.
"Since no one can break your innate gift other than the Desolate Ancestor, how did you get injured?" Lu Yin asked.
"Do you really think that your power is invincible? You're just a boy who betrayed Wu Tian."
The Undying Deity laughed maniacally. "Betrayed?
That's not accurate. I'm not from the Primordial Space. "
Lu Yin was shocked. "What did you say?"
Undying God suddenly looked up and took a step forward, charging towards Lu Yin.
The wood carving's expression changed. Not good.
"Attack." Mu Xie pushed the Evil Sarira away.
Wang Jian and Xia Zhen attacked together.
Mister Daheng saw the Undying Deity rushing towards Lu Yin and also attacked. He did not want to save Lu Yin, but he could not let the stone disappear. If the stone was taken by the Undying Deity, there would be no hope of getting it back in this lifetime.
The Undying Deity appeared in front of Lu Yin, bringing doomsday-like decay. The entire space was about to wither. Lu Yin seemed to hear endless wails and smell the decay of death.
He took a deep breath and released the starry sky in his heart.
In an instant, the starry sky repelled each other. The World of Nothingness wrapped around the Undying Deity and pushed him away.
Lu Yin also attacked at the same time, using an attack that reached its limit.
The Undying Deity's expression changed. What was this?
He retreated step by step, but the World of Nothingness still swept past him. Lu Yin's World of Nothingness also attacked at the same time. If the Undying Deity used his innate gift, he would be hit by the World of Nothingness and be eroded by it. If he did not use his innate gift, he was afraid that Lu Yin's World of Nothingness would be fake and his body would be eroded by it.
The same scene appeared again. Just like in the Starry Sky of Trees, Lu Yin had used World of Nothingness on one hand and used the slipper on the other. It was a gamble.
It was a gamble to see who would win.
For the Undying Deity, this was not a gamble. There was only one way out. Regardless of whether Lu Yin used World of Nothingness or not, he had to use his innate gift. Otherwise, he would definitely be eroded by the World of Nothingness.
The World of Nothingness swept past, and the Undying Deity spat out a mouthful of blood. Half of his body was swept past and shattered. His innate gift had been broken by World of Nothingness, and his body had been injured by the World of Nothingness.
As he watched the Undying Deity spit out blood and retreat, Lu Yin's eyes widened. "Ancestor, now is the time."
Lu Tianyi appeared in the void. He raised his hand and shot out the Ksitigarbha Needle.
It flew out and pierced through the Undying Deity's body. The broken laws caused the Undying Deity to howl in pain.
If they had only forced out the Seven Skygods, then it would have been difficult for them to keep them here. The Witch Spirit God had almost escaped when he was on the verge of death, so one could imagine the Seven Skygods' ability to protect themselves.
Lu Yin could only use himself as bait. As long as the Seven Skygods wanted to kill him, he would use the World of Nothingness in his heart to attack them. Then, he would let Ancestor Tianyi launch a sneak attack, which would give him a chance to eliminate the Seven Skygods.
Sometimes, Lu Yin did not know how Luo Shan did it. The Seven Skygods would be injured by the World of Nothingness, but Luo Shan could rely on it to escape.
After being destroyed by Ancestor Tianyi's laws, the Undying Deity was severely injured.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mu Feng, Mr. Daheng, and Ancestor Tianyi attacked once again. The Undying Deity lowered his head, and his fervent expression suddenly disappeared. He turned back into the Undying Deity who only wanted to sleep, the lazy Undying Deity who did not want to move. "Lu family's brat, are you really good at reversing steps?"
Lu Yin's eyelids twitched. Reversing steps? Time?
The Undying Deity raised his foot and took a step forward. His body became illusory, and then, under everyone's incredulous gazes, the shattered half of his body recovered to its original state. Only the illusory figure was shattered.
Everyone was stunned by this scene.
Ancestor Tianyi's expression changed. "Not good."
The Undying Deity turned to look at Lu Yin. "I'm so sleepy. We will meet again." With that, he took another step and disappeared.
Ancestor Tianyi and the others' attacks all missed.
Lu Yin stared blankly as the Undying Deity disappeared. He was not thinking about the Undying Deity, but Bai Xianer.
That scene was so familiar. He had seen it before. On the day the Lu family was exiled, illusory figures had walked out of Bai Xianer's body. Some had faced Ancestor Tianyi, while others had killed the Seven Heroes. Were they the same?
Why were they so similar?
Was this the power of reversing steps?
It was clearly the power of time. Could time do this?
The Undying Deity had escaped from the encirclement of Lu Tianyi, Mu Feng, and Mr. Daheng. Although he had been severely injured, as long as he did not die, there would be a day when he could escape.
The Undying Deity's escape method made everyone fall silent.
The more they understood, the more horrified they were.
Although Lu Yin could use the flowing light to reverse time, in essence, he did not really control time. As the Undying Deity had said, was he really good at reversing steps?
As for reversing steps, it was only in appearance.
"Ancestor, what's going on?" Lu Yin had to ask. He was very uneasy, as he had never seen such a method before.
Lu Tianyi's expression was unprecedentedly serious. "If I'm not wrong, he just skipped time."
Lu Yin was confused. Skipping time?
Mu Feng's tone was low. "Time is not unchanging. It can be searched for, reversed, and skipped. The Undying Deity's use of time is very terrifying."
"How does it compare to Tracing Time?" Lu Yin asked.
Mu Feng's gaze turned cold. "These are two different ways of using time. They both seem to be related to time, but Tracing Time negates a certain period of time, while the Undying Deity skipped that period of time. If you have the ability to find the period of time that he skipped, the pain that he suffered would still appear."
Although Mu Feng's words were not clear, Lu Yin understood. Tracing Time directly negated a certain period of time. No matter what, that period of time did not exist. The Undying Deity did not negate it, but rather skipped that period of time. It was like a life that had been paused or cut off.
