Chapter 771: Realm of the Dead VI

    ?

    Jian cursed fiercely when he spotted another figure floating far away, watching the chaos unfold with a twisted sense of amusement. It was Enthrall.

    "That fucker! I want to gouge out his eyes! What''s so damn amusing?"

    With a surge of adrenaline, he darted across the battlefield at blinding speed.

    His eyes turned white, and the air around him stilled; not just the air, but everything in his surroundings froze as time halted under his command. Jian murmured a powerful spell aimed directly at Enthrall.

    The sky erupted in a torrent of blazing flames, each flicker shimmering with a sinister hue of deep crimson.

    Enthrall jolted in surprise as the flames morphed into a thousand deadly arrows, raining down upon him mercilessly.

    Ceano and Damien were also alerted and scanned their surroundings immediately when they sensed that time had come to a standstill around them.

    They initially thought Kyle had joined the fray to attack, but their confusion turned to surprise as they noticed an unfamiliar face wielding the nature to control time.

    Damien sent Odiak sprawling with a kick and fixed his sharp gaze on Jian.

    "Kill him."

    His words were loud and clear, causing everyone around him to turn toward the red-haired man rushing toward Enthrall.

    Carcel grabbed his spear and hurled it toward Ceano''s body, which was just inches away from Jian, with all his might. Alec and Regius did the same. However, they failed to realize that the command Damien gave was not meant for Ceano.

    Enthrall, who was leaping to evade the fire arrows aimed at him with a mocking smile, froze when the dark five-petal flower on his body reacted. His amused sapphire eyes instantly turned deadly serious.

    After all, if Damien had suddenly resorted to using the flower to assert his command, it meant that their master was near. Now, he can''t be a salted fish, can he?

    He tilted his head toward Jian''s approaching figure with a sinister smile.

    "I am cautious..."

    His words were followed by a powerful force that swept aside all the arrows raining down on him as he vanished from his spot and reappeared directly in front of Jian.

    Kyle blinked, and in the next second, he was floating directly behind Enthrall, who tried to turn back and attack him.

    But couldn''t moved.

    Kyle''s eyes met Jian''s hazy ones, and the green within them turned to white.

    Everyone in the vicinity hissed as space shattered in a blur, and time rushed back with an anguished noise, as if forced.

    The sky erupted with a powerful roar, and the Will of the Universe rushed to stop him when it realized what he was doing.

    "Stop! You can''t toy with nature so recklessly!"

    He wasn''t allowed to interfere, but as the Will of the Universe, he couldn''t let anyone disrupt nature. It was one thing for Kyle to try to turn back time in his vicinity, but he was trying to alter events that had already transpired to save someone!

    "Damn it! It''s not like the kid''s going to die! He can create a new body for himself! So, why are

    you doing this?"

    Kyle tilted his head and the old man rushing toward him was stopped by the icy flames. He wanted to say just because... However, considering his condition, he refrained. He watched as the hazy red eyes he had been staring at began to return to normal.

    Time turned back, and with each moment, his skin cracked further.

    He had already lost too much life force due to the array, which was still operating in the distance, and now his body was suffering for doing what he was forbidden to do.

    Jian blinked in surprise, as if his thoughts had returned to him, and he blinked again. He glanced down at his body and released a harsh breath when he saw no blood. Not even a hint of it... He was sure his heart... even the thought made him shudder.

    "This... Oh my..."

    He pressed his palm against his racing heart, and a hint of excitement flashed in his red eyes.

    So, one can really turn back time enough to alter events!? He whipped his head toward Kyle

    with a grin, but the smile faded when he saw his condition.

    "!???"
