77: Time Reversal

On the high platform, Pharaoh King Sekhmet looked at these ants who didn't know their own limits and dared to actively attack him. Beneath his golden mask, the corner of his mouth curled into a disdainful sneer.

"Foolish mortals."

Slowly, he drew from his back an exaggeratedly styled Golden Scepter, three meters long.

Atop the scepter was inlaid a gem the size of a human head, emanating a massive black energy of death.

"Let me show you the power of a god."

The Pharaoh King slammed the scepter heavily onto the ground!

Boom!

A black shockwave centered on him violently expanded outwards in all directions!

Wang Yi and the others, who had just leaped onto the platform, felt an irresistible, tremendous force strike them. They were all blasted backwards, crashing heavily to the ground.

"Such immense power!"

Wang Yi climbed to his feet, feeling a surge of blood and energy churning in his chest.

Just a simple shockwave, yet its power was this terrifying!

The strength of this Pharaoh King was unfathomable!

"Die!"

The Pharaoh King gave them no chance to catch their breath. His figure flashed, instantly appearing in front of one squad member. The Golden Scepter in his hand, shrieking as it tore through the air, smashed down with brutal force!

That squad member had no time to react. He could only watch helplessly as the Golden Scepter grew larger and larger in his pupils!

"Watch out!"

At that critical moment, Wang Yi's figure appeared before the squad member like a ghost. He raised his arms, forcefully blocking the Pharaoh King's thunderous strike!

Clang——!!!

A deafening metallic clang rang out!

Wang Yi felt as if his arms had been hit head-on by a high-speed train!

An excruciating pain shot through him!

The white jade floor beneath his feet cracked inch by inch!

But he had managed to hold it off!

"Fall back!" Wang Yi roared at the terrified squad member behind him.

As if waking from a dream, the squad member scrambled backwards in a panic.

"Oh? Interesting." The Pharaoh King, looking at Wang Yi who had actually blocked his strike head-on, showed a hint of surprise in his tone. "Your body seems a bit stronger than the other ants."

"But that's all."

The Pharaoh King's arm suddenly exerted force, and Wang Yi was sent flying by a tremendous power!

"All of you, die!"

The Pharaoh King let out a roar. The Golden Scepter in his hand whirled with fierce momentum, transforming into a sky full of golden staff shadows that enveloped the entire Assault Squad!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

For a moment, screams of pain rose one after another!

Facing this final boss who completely overpowered them, the Assault Squad members were almost helpless. One by one, they were smashed and sent tumbling, vomiting blood.

"Damn it! Picking on my brothers?!"

Just then, an angry roar came from below the platform!

It was Chen Hu!

Seeing his teammates being trampled like that on the platform, his eyes instantly turned red with fury!

He ignored the endless Skeleton Soldiers, directly activated his Berserker mode, forcefully carved a bloody path through the sea of skeletons, and with a leap, jumped onto the platform!

"Monster! Die!"

With eyes bloodshot, Chen Hu, like a raging demon, brought down his high-frequency battle blade with all his fury, viciously chopping at the Pharaoh King's back!

"Another one come to die?"

The Pharaoh King didn't even look back. He swung his scepter backwards, smashing it towards Chen Hu behind him!

Clang!

The battle blade and scepter collided violently in mid-air!

Sparks flew everywhere!

Chen Hu felt a power several times more terrifying than that of The Faceless One transmitted from the blade!

His supposedly indestructible high-frequency battle blade was actually knocked from his grip by this single blow!

And he himself was blasted backwards, crashing hard against the edge of the platform. He vomited a large mouthful of blood and instantly fell unconscious.

Just one strike!

Chen Hu, in Berserker mode, was instantly defeated!

"Chen Hu!"

Seeing this, Wang Yi's eyes nearly burst with rage!

"I'll kill you!!!"

He let out a heaven-shaking roar. The lightning power within his body erupted without restraint, wildly surging forth!

Zzzap——

Dazzling blue electric arcs danced wildly across his body!

He seemed to transform into a war god wielding thunder and lightning!

"Lightning Fist!"

Wang Yi's figure instantly vanished from his spot. The next second, he appeared in front of the Pharaoh King. His right fist, entwined with thousands of lightning serpents, smashed viciously into the Pharaoh King's chest!

Boom!!!

Furious lightning exploded forth!

The Pharaoh King's burly body was sent staggering back by this punch!

The golden armor on his chest was blown open into a huge hole, revealing the withered, Mummy-like flesh and blood beneath!

A trickle of black blood slowly flowed from the corner of the Pharaoh King's mouth.

He was injured!

"We did it!"

Seeing this, all the surviving squad members let out a cheer of pleasant surprise!

However, the Pharaoh King merely wiped the blood from his mouth disdainfully. From beneath the golden mask came a series of grating, cold laughs.

"Heh heh heh... Not bad, not bad."

"You are the first mortal to injure this king's divine body."

"But, so what?"

The Pharaoh King slowly raised his left hand.

A strange green light, filled with the aura of time, began to glow in his palm.

Chapter 78: Time Rewind! Immortal Body!

It was a soft, gentle green light, as if carved from the purest jadeite.

It floated and rotated quietly in the Pharaoh King's hand, emanating an ancient, mysterious aura that seemed not of this world.

"What... is this?"

Looking at that green light, Wang Yi suddenly felt an extremely ominous premonition rise in his heart.

He could sense that within that green light was contained a supreme law-like power he could not comprehend at all.

That power was even more terrifying and profound than the divine power previously displayed by the anubis statue!

On the high platform, Pharaoh King Sekhmet, seeing Wang Yi's grave expression, let out a series of triumphant and cruel laughs from beneath his golden mask.

"Mortal, open your eyes wide and watch carefully."

"This is the insurmountable chasm that forever separates gods from ants!"

"This is eternity!"

As his words fell, the Pharaoh King slowly pressed the ball of green light in his hand towards the deep, bone-exposing wound on his chest that had been blasted open by the Lightning Fist!

Hum——

A miraculous scene occurred!

The moment it made contact with the green light, the ghastly wound on the Pharaoh King's chest, the charred flesh, actually began to recede at a visible, unbelievable speed!

Torn and mangled flesh smoothed and became whole again.

Shattered armor restored itself to its original state.

Charred skin once again became withered yet tough.

In the blink of an eye!

That fatal, massive wound had... simply vanished into thin air!

As if it had never existed!

The Pharaoh King's chest was perfectly intact!

Even the bloodstain at the corner of his mouth had disappeared without a trace!

Time, reversed!
