As Liu Xue’s fierce sword aura approached the palm wind, it seemed to sink into a quagmire, its speed suddenly decreased, and the sword light dimmed at a visible speed, as if it had been eroded by time, its power was greatly reduced.
“Bro!”
The palm strike hit Liu Xue’s long sword, and she was hit hard. The sword slipped from his hand, and he coughed up blood. He was thrown backwards and caught by Yan Nantian, but his face was deathly pale and his breathing was weak.
“His power can erode time”
Liu Xue said with difficulty, her eyes filled with horror.
Yan Nantian’s face was ashen, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails dug deep into his flesh.
He wanted to advance, but he knew that even David and Liu Xue were extremely vulnerable, so advancing would simply be suicide.
Right now, he could only place his hopes on David, and on the possible mastermind behind David.
As Soul Devourer watched this scene, his smile grew wider and happier, as if he was truly enjoying this game of cat and mouse.
David fell heavily to the ground, then quickly got up. He didn’t bother wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. The excruciating pain in his right shoulder and Liu Xue’s serious injuries fueled his anger, but he was also filled with cold rationality.
“The time essence he controls is much more profound than mine!”
David glared at the burly man. “My time slowing technique is ineffective against him, and may even reverse, speeding up his attack. Liu Xue’s attack is also eroded by the power of time. Could it be”
A terrible thought appeared in David’s mind.
Just then, the burly man approached again, throwing another unadorned punch straight at David’s face.
This punch looked like it would crush his skull!
David gritted his teeth and fully activated the Time Slowing Domain, while simultaneously unleashing the Fist of Holy Light. A golden fist imprint, carrying a solemn aura of purifying evil, shot out.
He wanted to experience firsthand what the other party’s law of time was like!
“Buzz-!”
Just when his Holy Light Fist was about to clash with his opponent’s fist, the familiar high-level fluctuations of the laws of time appeared again.
This time, David concentrated all his divine sense, carefully sensing the changes in that instant!
He “saw” it!
At the critical point where their powers collided, time subtly reversed at the tip of the burly man’s fist!
This is not an acceleration, nor a deceleration, but a true, localized, small-scale reversal of time!
Even though the duration of the reverse flow was very short, perhaps less than one hundredth of a breath, it was still quite terrifying!
It was this very subtle shift in time that forcibly “pulled back” David’s Holy Light Jutsu from the peak of its power, right before it clashed head-on with its opponent, to a state where its power had just begun and had not yet reached its peak!
However, taking advantage of this short time difference, the opponent’s fist smashed straight into the weakened Holy Light Technique!
The results are exactly as expected!
“puff!”
The golden fist imprint instantly disappeared, and David’s Holy Light Fist was completely destroyed!
That fist, which had the power to reverse time, struck his chest once again!
