Chapter 897: Time Suspension

Chapter 897: Chapter 897: Time Suspension

Outside Zhuanlun Hall, the battle was about to erupt!

Yi Yan glanced at the center of the battlefield, then turned to look at the people from the Spacetime Dojo. With a wave of his hand, the Da Jing army seemed to swiftly reposition themselves, subtly moving towards Chen Xiaoqian.

No one paid much attention to the Da Jing army since almost everyone's focus was on the battlefield's center, where Zhong Shan and Luo Xingchen stood in the void.

Luo Xingchen stared at Zhong Shan as if scrutinizing him, filled with countless doubts.

"The life-and-death battle begins!" Zhong Shan declared nonchalantly.

Zhong Shan slightly raised his arms.

"Boom!"

The surroundings suddenly erupted with blue light. Around Zhong Shan and Luo Xingchen, streams of blue energy swirled and rotated rapidly, causing Luo Xingchen's expression to change slightly.

Externally, a similar phenomenon occurred. As Zhong Shan raised his arms, a massive suction force seemed to emerge around the battlefield. The area turned a deep blue, spinning wildly. A towering blue column of light shot up into the sky, dominating everyone's view.

The terrifying suction appeared to draw everyone towards it. The endless malevolent aura of Zhuanlun Hall surged into the blue column of light.

Those with lower cultivation retreated repeatedly, their faces filled with uncertainty and fear.

"What is this? What's happening?"

"It's something Zhong Shan conjured. That initial gesture, it's unmistakable—it's Zhong Shan!"

"I know what this is!" someone gulped.

"A reincarnation channel! This is a reincarnation channel!"

Upon hearing the conclusion, the strong warriors retreated in horror. A reincarnation channel—would they enter the cycle of reincarnation, reborn anew, or be crushed into nothingness?

Everyone was stunned. The Great Da Jing Sacred King could open a reincarnation channel. Was this a divine ability? It was unbelievably powerful!

In the distance, at the Wu Xiang Sacred Court's Third Prince's location:

"A reincarnation channel? It really is a reincarnation channel! Third Prince, how can Zhong Shan open a reincarnation channel?"

"Could it be a reincarnation artifact?"

"No, Zhong Shan opened it himself. In this world, only one lineage can so easily open a reincarnation channel!"

"The Reincarnation Saint?"

"Is Zhong Shan a disciple of the Reincarnation Saint? The Reincarnation Saint's influence is far-reaching," the Third Prince said gravely.

Almost everyone was shocked by the vast reincarnation channel.

Vast? It wasn't vast at all. In this situation, Zhong Shan could even maintain a balance, his consumption and recovery matching perfectly. This was the ability of a Tianxian!

Inside the reincarnation channel, the immense reincarnation force circled Zhong Shan and Luo Xingchen rapidly, seemingly trying to pull Luo Xingchen into the bottomless depths of reincarnation.

But who was Luo Xingchen? A dignified Ancient Immortal, even mastering the time divine ability. This suction force was nothing to him. Luo Xingchen was confident he could break through the reincarnation channel and escape if necessary. Ne/w novel chapters are published on no/vel(/bin(.)co/m

At this moment, Luo Xingchen seemed to understand Zhong Shan's purpose. He coldly looked at Zhong Shan and said, "Now that no one is watching, is there anything you want to say?"

"Isn't it you who has something to say?" Zhong Shan replied with a faint smile.

But Zhong Shan's speed was not slow either; he disappeared from his original position in an instant.

A Tianxian? How could a Tianxian have such speed? This was the speed of an Ancient Immortal!

Zhong Shan's shadow body was incredibly fast, catching Luo Xingchen off guard. It wasn't that Luo Xingchen's speed was inferior, but he hadn't anticipated Zhong Shan being this absurdly fast.

The speed was on par with an Ancient Immortal!

This made Luo Xingchen doubt his initial judgment. Zhong Shan couldn't possibly be a Tianxian! How could a Tianxian achieve such speed?

But Zhong Shan's cultivation was clear—how could he not be?

"Time Reversal!"

Luo Xingchen shouted, and the blue gemstone on his forehead emitted a dazzling blue light. Suddenly, the space in front of him seemed to distort, and Zhong Shan's speed drastically decreased.

It wasn't that Zhong Shan's speed had decreased. He knew he was still moving just as fast, but the time around him had slowed. His speed felt reduced because time itself had slowed.

It was as if moving a hundred meters per second had become moving a hundred meters every two seconds. His speed was effectively halved.

Time manipulation—a terrifying ability.

"Boom!"

Luo Xingchen grabbed Zhong Shan's shoulder with one hand, while his right hand, glowing with blue light, formed a claw and struck at Zhong Shan's chest.

Zhong Shan was horrified to find that the time around him seemed to freeze. The void itself was suspended in time; nothing moved except Luo Xingchen, who maintained his original speed.

"Boom!"

The claw pierced through Zhong Shan's chest. In this moment of time suspension, Luo Xingchen's time manipulation showed its terrifying power.

Zhong Shan had no defense. He was struck through the chest, and with the power of an Ancient Immortal, he exploded.

A single, fatal blow. Luo Xingchen was too overwhelming!

When Luo Xingchen engaged in battle, he became incredibly serious. Even as blood splattered on his face, his killing intent remained intense.

Zhong Shan was dead?

No, the reincarnation channel was still active. Zhong Shan wasn't dead!

Luo Xingchen was startled. Zhong Shan wasn't dead? Indeed, as he looked again at the blood on himself, it had mysteriously vanished.

The Great Da Jing Sacred King? Zhong Shan! Luo Xingchen frowned deeply.

"Whoosh!"

Not far away, a shadow flickered, and Zhong Shan reappeared.

"Time manipulation, ranked ninth among the divine abilities of the Great Thousand World. It truly lives up to its reputation! Impressive, very impressive!" Zhong Shan said, admiring Luo Xingchen's divine ability the moment he reappeared.

The ninth-ranked divine ability? Indeed, it had unique aspects. It was incredibly powerful. Luo Xingchen had only just begun to comprehend time manipulation, and it seemed limited to a small area. If it could be expanded, with time manipulation stopping everything, wouldn't all the world's powerful beings be at his mercy?

"You're not dead?" Luo Xingchen said, his eyes narrowing as he looked at Zhong Shan.

"You underestimate me," Zhong Shan replied, a slight smile on his lips.
