Chapter 899 – Corpse Beast
[Temporal Thug] could allow him to go back in time, could allow him to change history recklessly without himself being affected, but the prerequisite was that he had to use his own lifespan to bear this karma.
After the second failed time regression in the fishing village, he was already approaching sixty years of age, and that race against the river of time after the final breakthrough of the ceiling, although he had finally managed to escape from the closed loop, he had consumed nearly ten more years of his lifespan.
Although Wang Mian was unable to accurately perceive how much of his lifespan was left, he already had a premonition that he only had two years of lifespan left at most.
Two years of lifespan was simply not enough for him to go back in time.
He could no longer go back.
In Wang Mian’s mind, the familiar faces flashed by, and the words of the vortex still echoed in his mind:
”…… As long as you can outrun the river of time, one day, we will all return behind you!”
Wang Mian’s fists clenched tightly.
He had tried so hard, he had gambled everything and ran to win the long river of time …… But they, however, could never return behind him again.
At this moment, Wang Mian, all thoughts were lost.
”Do you know brother Seven Nights?” Yuzurina was excited when she saw Wang Mian’s reaction, “Has Brother Seven Nights gone back? How is he doing in Daxia?”
Wang Mian saw that the anticipation in Yuzurina’s eyes was almost overflowing, and after a moment of silence, he still nodded his head.
”He’s fine.”
A smile blossomed on Yuzu Ri Nai’s little face, a pair of eyes curved into a crescent moon, all the grudges and anger from just now were swept away, and her attitude towards Wang Mian made a 180-degree turn.
”Old grandpa, what do you want to eat? I’ll send someone to make it for you!”
”This is your first time in Japan, right? Is there any place you want to go? I’ll take you out for a spin?”
”If you’re bored, I’ve got a lot of popular cowboys, I can come and have them chat with you!”
”Why don’t you tell me more about Brother Seven Nights in Daxia?”
”……”
Under Yuzurina’s frantic attack, Wang Mian helplessly closed his eyes, and just as he was about to say something, a loud bang suddenly came from the sky.
Boom–!
The earth trembled slightly, and in the distant sky, a flash of blood color emerged.
Yuzurina’s face changed, and she jerked her head up to look in the direction where the loud noise came from, and after hesitating for a moment, she stood up from beside Wang Mian.
”Old Grandpa, you wait here first, I’ll go out.”
Yuzurina’s palm rested on her waist, pulling out the [Thousand Cranes] by half an inch, and the blade suddenly turned into a sky full of paper cranes, curling up with Yuzurina’s body, swept out of the window, and swiftly flew above the clear sky.
Seeing this scene, a look of surprise surfaced in King Face’s cloudy eyes.
He gazed at the blood-colored sky in the distance, and for some reason, he had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
This kind of breath ……
Wang Mian looked like he had thought of something, and his pupils contracted slightly.
How is this possible?
He stood up from the corner of the room, and instead of activating his own Divine Ruin, he drew out his [Eagle Duck], and his body transformed into a streak of white light, following the direction Yuzu Rina had left in, and sped away!
Boom–!
Under the blood-colored sky, several skyscrapers collapsed, rolling dust flew up, and a huge, gigantic shadow smashed heavily from the sky to the ground, causing the earth to hum.
It was a black monster, about a hundred meters tall, dripping with disgusting, fishy liquid, a pair of scarlet eyes opened angrily, glaring deathly at the white-clothed figure that sped down from the clouds, hissing shrilly.
In the streets around it, countless residents screamed and fled the neighborhood, and boulder fragments in the sky smashed down like rain.
Right at this moment, a trail of gunshots pointed out from the void, accurately shattering every boulder and saving nearly a hundred ordinary residents who had yet to flee the scene.
The tall, white-clothed figure held the lance in his hand and steadily landed on the top of the tall building on the side of the monster, his long, slender white hair dancing with the wind, and his criss-cross shaped eyes gazing calmly at the angry, hissing monster, narrowing slightly.
”Is the blood bar already at the decapitation line ……”
He muttered.
The monster that was dripping with black liquid struggled to get up from the ground, but the white-clothed figure lifted his palm lightly, and a flash of light flickered to the top of the monster’s head.
”Prop selection ……a grade prop, Ghost Suppressing Pillar.”
A thick black pillar smashed down from the sky, hammered into the monster’s chest, the latter’s figure trembled violently, the earth underneath immediately surfaced dense spiderweb cracks, and the body that was originally about to stand up was pressed back down again.
The white-clothed figure gently leaped and flew up from the top of the tall building, the lance in his hand turned into a flash of white light and disappeared without a trace, at the same time, a golden short sword was held in his hand.
”Prop selection ……s grade decapitation prop, Blade of Erasure.”
His figure was like a white lightning, cutting through hundreds of meters in an instant, and the Blade of Erasure in his hand accurately stabbed at the monster’s throat!
Dull blood splashed out from the monster’s neck, spilling onto the man’s clothes and cheeks, his eyes were calm as he pulled out the short blade in his hand, his blood-stained white clothes flicked slightly, and the monster underneath him had already lost its breath.
In the next moment, a large number of paper cranes flew down from the sky, converging into the figure of a young girl who stood by the monster’s corpse.
Seeing this young girl, the tall white figure’s eyes lit up, and a sunny smile blossomed on her bloodstained face as she waved at her, “Sister, what brings you here?”
Seeing the monster corpse beneath Yuzuru Takeru White, Yuzuru Riina was slightly relieved and laughed, “I wasn’t worried about you, was I? It just so happens that the location of this corpse beast is not far from the Wind Priest’s house, so I rushed over to take a look.”
She stepped in front of Yuzuri-Takubai, stood on her tiptoes, and reached out to help him wipe off the blood stains on his face, but she was really too short compared to Yuzuri-Takubai, and it was a bit difficult for her to touch his face.
Seeing this, Yuzuri-Takubai meekly half-squatted down, letting Yuzuri-Nai wipe his face a little bit.
”Sister, you don’t have to worry about me, now I’m the most powerful person in this country.” Yuzuri Takeru smiled gently.
”Even more powerful, you are still my younger brother.” Yuzuri Nai wiped Yuzuri Takeru’s face clean, and swept her eyes at the white clothes that were covered in blood stains, and said, “When you get home in a little while, take off your clothes, and my sister will wash them off for you.”
”Uh, okay.”
Yuzuri Takeru White was about to stand up, when he was slightly startled, his gaze landed not far behind Yuzuri Nai, where an old man with white hair was standing quietly.
Sensing the aura emanating from his body, Yuzuru Takeru Shiraito’s face froze, those crosshair eyes were full of vigilance, he took a step forward, his tall figure protecting Yuzuru Nanae behind him.
Wang Mian’s gaze, on the other hand, all fell on the corpse of that monster with scarlet eyes.
His face was unsightly.
