184: Chapter 184 Your Time, My Choice
Deputy Commander Li Qingyue, a woman who looked frail and weak, appeared quietly before the ten-thousand-zhang-tall Dark Titan, Gru.
The entire bloody battlefield suddenly quieted down, with a feeling that something was wrong everywhere.
The contrast in this scene was too great.
"Another one here to die?"
Gru roared with disdain, his voice making people's ears ache.
He had just punched a Peak Golden Immortal Dragon Clan Elder to death and was currently unstoppable.
He felt that this "little thing" in front of him, not even as big as his fist, was no different from the "bugs" he had crushed before.
He couldn't be bothered to use any fancy Moves. His massive black fist, capable of shattering stars, simply and directly swung out once more!
Before the fist even arrived, the space seemed to be flattened, emitting a cracking sound.
The wind from the punch alone was enough to blow away an ordinary Golden Immortal!
Facing this punch, Li Qingyue merely raised her eyelids.
She neither dodged nor blocked.
There wasn't even a ripple of Immortal Qi on her.
She simply…
Extended a finger and pointed it toward the rapidly approaching giant fist.
To Gru, this action was simply ridiculous, no different from using an arm to block a train!
A smile of impending slaughter had already appeared on his ugly, large face, as if he had already seen the scene of the other party being smashed into meat paste by his punch.
But the next second, the smile on his face froze.
"Hum—!"
Just a second before Li Qingyue's slender finger was about to collide with Gru's mountain-sized fist.
An invisible Domain, centered on Li Qingyue, suddenly expanded!
It was not any known Law.
There was nothing else in the field, only falling snowflakes... and a cold air capable of freezing everything!
In an instant, Gru felt as if he had plunged from boiling water into a pile of ice blocks!
An indescribable feeling of awkwardness spread to every corner of his body!
"What... is this?!"
Gru was greatly startled; he discovered that his originally super-fierce fist had slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye!
His fist, originally as fast as lightning, seemed to have fallen into a quagmire after entering this snowy field.
He could clearly see his own fist inching forward in the air, with extreme difficulty.
That feeling was slower and more uncomfortable than a snail crawling!
This wasn't a problem of strength!
It was... Time!
The other party's Domain could actually change the speed of time!
What scared him even more was that his own time had slowed down, but that girl in white seemed completely unaffected!
Li Qingyue strolled leisurely, took a step to the side within the almost motionless fist wind, and easily dodged his "slow-motion" attack.
Then, the direction of the pointing finger didn't change; it landed on his massive fist with a speed that seemed ridiculously fast to Gru.
"Chi..."
There was no great explosion as imagined.
Only a tiny sound, almost inaudible.
On Gru's body, which was harder than a Magic Treasure, right on his most proud fist, a needle-sized, bottomless hole appeared out of thin air!
A piercing cold air frantically drilled into the small hole!
"Crack! Crack!"
Ice-blue ice crystals began to grow rapidly from that small hole; his fist and his arm were completely frozen in the blink of an eye!
"Ahhh! Break... for... me!"
Gru's soul was screaming; the Dark magic power inside his body was like a volcanic eruption, wanting to break through this strange ice.
But his thoughts and his roars seemed to have been stretched countless times; every word was spoken extremely, extremely slowly.
And Li Qingyue just watched him waste his effort with cold eyes, without a trace of emotion, as if admiring a piece of art being slowly eroded by time.
Shameful!
Too shameful!
He, a dignified Dark Titan, a destroyer of the Boundary Sea, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, was actually toyed with by a little girl from who knows where!
His strength, his speed, everything he was most proud of, had become a joke in her strange time Domain!
"You! Seek! Death!"
Finally, as if ten thousand years had passed, Gru's fiery roar finally sounded completely.
He gave up on attacking.
He made a decision that shocked everyone watching.
"Boom—!!!"
Gru stopped controlling the chaotic Dark magic power in his body and instead began to fully fuel and ignite it!
His frozen arm exploded with a "boom," but this was just the beginning!
His entire mountain-sized body began to flash with dark red light, and cracks appeared on his stone-like skin; what sprayed out from inside was energy capable of blowing up this sky!
He wanted to self-destruct!
No, it was self-destructing a part of his body!
Using this cost to create enough powerful force to burst this annoying Domain at once!
"Not good! Deputy Commander, retreat quickly!"
"He's crazy! This guy is crazy!"
The people on the Heavenly Court side and the Dragon Clan were all scared silly.
The self-destruction of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal was something no one could predict the power of!
Let alone the Deputy Commander, even the spaceships in the sky might be blown up!
Looking at the snowy Domain that was beginning to twist and vibrate and was about to shatter, a triumphant, evil smile appeared on Gru's face, illuminated by the dark red light.
So what if the Law is powerful?
In the face of absolute power, nothing fancy is useful; everything must be crushed into slag!
However, his triumphant smile lasted less than half a second. It was frozen on his face forever.
Facing the energy about to explode, Li Qingyue just sighed; there seemed to be a bit of regret in that sigh, as if regretting a toy about to be broken.
Then, in the center of her forehead, a complex and mysterious silver mark slowly lit up. That mark looked like a moon, with a circle outside; it was exactly her treasure, the mark of the lunar mirror!
"Freeze."
This time, time stopped. It didn't slow down; it stopped completely.
Gru's energy, which was expanding and about to explode, instantly froze.
Those red lights spraying from the cracks in his body, those flying space fragments, those visible Laws, were all like a paused movie scene, forever fixed in mid-air.
His arrogant, ugly expression of thinking he had won was perfectly preserved, and together with the surrounding scene that was about to destroy the world, became a funny and strange "painting."
His brain could still think, but his body and his energy, all connections with the outside world, had been severed.
He could see and think, but he could no longer Move.
He was completely immobilized, becoming a living target.
A cold air rising from his bones, called "despair," instantly engulfed him.
This woman... She was the Dominator of time!
In her Domain, she could make time fast if she wanted, slow if she wanted, and even... Could make time stop for her!
Li Qingyue didn't even look at the "art of destruction" that could startle an Immortal King.
She stepped on those frozen time fragments and walked step by step to the front of the giant Dark Titan. Then, in front of his eyes, which were filled with shock and fear, she extended that fair finger again.
This time, her finger pointed at Gru's massive forehead. That was the most important place for his soul.
"Pop."
A very crisp sound, like glass breaking. A small crack suddenly appeared on Gru's forehead.
Then, this crack, like a spider web, crawled over his whole body and over the surrounding frozen, explosive energy at a speed too fast to see.
"Crash—"
The next second, the frozen scene shattered.
The body of that ten-thousand-zhang-tall Demon God, those forces capable of destroying a starry sky, that Dark Titan who had been in the Boundary Sea for who knows how many years... Just like that, before everyone's eyes, like a smashed ice block, it turned into countless dust particles glowing with blue light.
Then, the dust was gone, completely disappeared. Not even a trace of its existence was left.
On the Heavenly Court side, those soldiers who were worried about Li Qingyue just a moment ago were now all stunned, their weapons almost slipping from their hands.
The monsters and Vicious Beasts on the Boundary Sea side were also scared silly, their movements slowing down.
Everyone looked in disbelief at the small, white figure still floating in the sky.
A Grand Unity Golden Immortal, just like that... Gone? Not defeated, not locked up. It was... Deleted? A finger, and it was deleted!
And Li Qingyue just withdrew her finger and glanced at the empty space, as if she had casually swatted a pesky fly.
Then, she slowly turned her head, her cold gaze looking toward another place where a fight was happening in the distance.
There, her brother, Li Changsheng, was holding a wooden sword and looking at another Dark Titan, Odin, from afar.
Odin sensed his companion's aura suddenly vanish, and his eyes, burning with purple fire, shrank sharply.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Li Qingyue no longer held any contempt or intent to kill. Instead, it was unprecedented fear.
One... Was already this perverted. Then her brother, that young man called the "Great Demon-Slaying Marshal," how powerful of a... Monster must he be?
