Chapter 1020

Reversing Time and Space

“Is this the control over time and space?” Luo Feng felt the invisible power binding him, a force not of time, nor of space, but something of a far higher order.

Daohe King slowly ascended.

At this moment—

He was like the slowly rising Sun, dazzling and brilliant, captivating the gaze of hundreds of millions of inheritors.

The Thunder Beast God also looked down, its thunderous eyes… fixed on Daohe King ‘Luo Feng’, subtly conveying goodwill and friendliness. The power that had completely bound Luo Feng vanished into thin air, leaving Luo Feng somewhat surprised. Then… the Thunder Beast God slowly opened its mouth and once again let out a rumbling sound.

“Daohe,” the Thunder Beast God called out.

Luo Feng stood mid-air, bowing respectfully: “Beast God!”

“Your strength, your progress, your will, all satisfy me.” The Thunder Beast God looked down, its gaze entirely focused on Luo Feng, “I have a treasure I wish to bestow upon you.”

Whoosh—

The hundreds of millions of inheritors below immediately burst into an uproar, almost every one showing shock and envy.

“It really is a public bestowal of a treasure.”

“The Beast God personally descended to bestow a treasure!”

“Such a grand display, it must be a Supreme Treasure, otherwise how could it be worthy of the exalted status of the Beast God? This Daohe King is too lucky, to receive another Supreme Treasure!” Those inheritors couldn’t help but secretly transmit their voices to each other, all extremely excited, and the Thunder Beast God did not stop them.

It was delighted to see the envy and jealousy of the other inheritors.

“What’s the big deal? If you, at the Immortal-level, could kill Howling Mirror King, the Ancestral God Sect would probably also give you special treatment and bestow treasures upon you.”

“Daohe King is on the same level as Zhuchong King. Zhuchong King was publicly bestowed treasures back then.”

“Work hard, cultivate diligently, perhaps one day I will also be publicly bestowed treasures by the Ancestral God Sect.”

Luo Feng couldn’t hear any of the discussions below, nor did he care to. He was now filled with joyful anticipation.

“Thank you, Beast God!” Luo Feng bowed respectfully.

“Continue to strive, do not be complacent,” the Thunder Beast God’s voice boomed. At the same time, a giant lightning orb suddenly appeared before him. This lightning orb was tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter, and it began to fall downwards, directly towards Luo Feng, like a meteor.

As it fell, the lightning gradually dissipated.

When it reached above Luo Feng, the lightning had completely vanished, leaving only a giant ancient mirror, hundreds of kilometers in diameter. This mirror was circular, its body golden, and faint golden light flowed across its surface. This ancient mirror slowly descended, finally hovering before Luo Feng.

Luo Feng stared blankly at the giant mirror before him.

“A mirror?” Luo Feng blinked.

“I believe it will be of great use to you. Take it,” the Thunder Beast God looked down, one of its eyes much larger than the hundreds-of-kilometer mirror.

“Yes.”

Luo Feng respectfully replied, and with a thought, he directly placed this ancient mirror, primarily golden in color, into his World Ring. As for studying this treasure… Luo Feng planned to do so after the Beast God left. After all, the Eight Beast Gods held extremely high status in the Ancestral God Sect.

“Daohe, do not disappoint me,” the Thunder Beast God said with a hint of a smile, giving a final instruction.

Then, boom!

Thunder shook heaven and earth, and the Thunder Beast God’s massive figure vanished into thin air. The invisible pressure also disappeared, and Thunder Island completely returned to normal. The numerous inheritors who had been suppressed to the ground suddenly burst into chatter, discussing what had just happened, creating a clamor.

“Daohe King, congratulations.”

“Daohe King, congratulations on receiving another Supreme Treasure.” Many alien inheritors even came directly to speak with him.

Luo Feng merely smiled and quickly returned to his residence.

No matter how many other powerful beings wanted to communicate, Luo Feng ignored them, leaving many inheritors puzzled.

“What kind of treasure is that mirror Supreme Treasure?”

“I don’t know. I’ve seen mirror-type Supreme Treasures before, they’re used to assist in illusion attacks.”

“Daohe King specializes in psychic weapon attacks. Why would the Ancestral God Sect give him a treasure for illusion attacks?”

“Don’t guess wildly. It looks like a mirror… but what it actually does, besides Daohe King, few would know.”

Purple Thorn Island was bustling, and the news of the Thunder Beast God personally descending to bestow a treasure upon Luo Feng quickly spread. Almost simultaneously… the Northern Territory Alliance received the news.

“Haha…”

“The Ancestral God Sect, since the birth of the universe, their methods are always the same few tricks.” A four-hoofed, white-furred being slowly walked through the void, speaking, “Now that they see that human Daohe King is excellent, they immediately try to win him over. Hmm… Peifeng, you didn’t misremember, did Howling Mirror King come here?”

“Yes, Master,” Peifeng Venerable respectfully followed behind, “Howling Mirror King did come here, and he even stood on the plaza in front of my palace.”

“When?” the four-hoofed, white-furred being pressed.

“He came just three years ago,” Peifeng Venerable said.

“Hmm.”

The four-hoofed, white-furred being slowly walked through the void, soon landing on the plaza in front of a palace suspended in the distance.

Peifeng Venerable also respectfully followed.

“You withdraw first. I am about to perform Reversing Time and Space. Stay out of my range,” the four-hoofed, white-furred being said.

“Yes,” Peifeng Venerable’s eyes lit up. He immediately transformed into a streak of light and flew far away, looking back with anticipation. Although he was a Universe Overlord, he had only witnessed a Universe Master perform ‘Reversing Time and Space’ once before. This would be his second time.

Mainly, Reversing Time and Space caused too much commotion, even injuring Universe Masters. If the injury was severe, it would be a rare opportunity for enemies to kill the Universe Master.

So, Universe Masters usually performed it in secret.

Unless there was great trust, or the backlash was minor, they rarely allowed other powerful beings to observe.

“Roar~~~ Roar, roar, roar~~~” Faint, intermittent growls emanated from the four-hoofed, white-furred being’s mouth. It calmly watched its surroundings.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Time and space within a certain range around it began to rapidly rewind!

It was like a movie playing backward, and at an extremely fast speed. On this plaza, many powerful beings had once visited. The surrounding scenery changed… powerful beings flew backward, their words spoken in reverse, for example, respectfully calling ‘Peifeng Venerable’ became ‘Venerable Peifeng’ in reverse…

Time rapidly rewound.

Everything seemed illusory.

Swoosh!

The rewinding time suddenly stopped, and the surrounding time and space, which had been constantly changing and rewinding, also abruptly halted.

In this stopped time and space… Howling Mirror King was conversing with Peifeng Venerable.

“That’s me!” Far away, outside this reversed time and space, Peifeng Venerable stared in astonishment at the stopped scene. It was indeed him with Howling Mirror King.

In the reversed time and space, everything was illusory.

Only the four-hoofed, white-furred being was real.

“Howling Mirror King,” the four-hoofed, white-furred being’s gaze fell on Howling Mirror King.

“Come, child!”

The four-hoofed, white-furred being softly called out, and an invisible force quickly protected Howling Mirror King.

“Return to time and space.”

Boom~~

The surrounding time and space, which had rewound to this moment, rapidly began to return.

It was like a spring constantly winding, winding, and when it reached a certain point, it would automatically unwind back!

Like a spring! Constantly pressed down, down, down, but once the pressure stopped, the spring would bounce back!

This was a rebound!

The universe itself had a self-healing ability. When a Universe Master performed ‘Reversing Time and Space’, the universe itself would begin to return! And every point in time that was reversed belonged to the past; it should no longer exist in the present. If one forcibly protected something, they would naturally suffer the universe’s backlash.

“Ah ah ah ah~~~” Howling Mirror King roared, as time and space returned, waves of invisible power rapidly acted upon him.

But the four-hoofed, white-furred being calmly watched this scene. It protected Howling Mirror King, allowing the universe’s backlash… to be transmitted through Howling Mirror King to itself. It, a dignified Universe Master… was fully capable of resisting this universal backlash.

“Ah ah ah~~” Howling Mirror King screamed in agony.

Pain!

During the return of time and space, the waves of universal backlash, each wave strong enough to easily annihilate him! To be resurrected by reversing time and space was inherently against Universal Laws, and this would incur punishment. And this punishment was actively borne by the Universe Master!

Time and space were returning.

The scenes from within a few years, which had been reversed, were now playing forward again at an accelerated pace. Everything else was illusory, only the four-hoofed, white-furred being and Howling Mirror King remained constant, traversing through each point in time.

A moment later—

The return of time and space finally stopped.

Everything returned to normal, finally reaching the original time node.

“I, this, this…” Howling Mirror King stood blankly on the plaza, looking around.

“Master,” Peifeng Venerable quickly flew over.

“It’s done.”

The four-hoofed, white-furred being slowly nodded, looking at Howling Mirror King, “Howling Mirror King, you have been resurrected, but… do not forget, you died once.”

“I, died once…” Howling Mirror King was stunned.

Suddenly, his previous memories flooded back, everything completely restored to his mind.

“It was him, it was him, Daohe King!!!” Howling Mirror King’s eyes lit up, filled with madness and unwillingness.

“My Supreme Treasures, my Supreme Treasures.” Howling Mirror King suddenly noticed something was wrong.

The four-hoofed, white-furred being looked down at Howling Mirror King, calmly saying: “Howling Mirror King, in Reversing Time and Space, I merely protected you, bringing you back from past time and space. I would not protect a Supreme Treasure to bring it back. The cost would be greater than acquiring ten more Supreme Treasures. I only resurrected your being; all other Supreme Treasures, valuable treasures, and so on, dissipated during the return of time and space.”

After speaking.

The four-hoofed, white-furred being walked through the void, then completely vanished.

“Farewell, Master,” Peifeng Venerable bowed respectfully.
