Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1560 - 435: Prisoner of the Western Profound Realm
Previously on Beast Taming Patrol...
Even though this was his initial brush with such a strange occurrence, the Martial Emperor remained true to his title. He rapidly steadied his nerves and started striving to summon his counterparts from alternate timelines.
Yet, the task proved challenging.
The Cosmic Division Light stands apart from the Time Master's other abilities, serving as its fundamental technique.
Since his early days, the Time Master had wielded this ability repeatedly against foes, executing it innumerable times.
Therefore, when the Cosmic Division Light activated, dispelling it wasn't a simple feat.
Should the Martial Emperor possess something like Qiuqiu's eternal rule that counters this directly, the situation might differ.
But his martial arts prowess didn't specialize in such matters, and with the Time Master from various timelines launching instant assaults to hinder his recovery, the Martial Emperor couldn't overcome it.
Then let's battle!
As the Time Master advanced from multiple timelines, the Martial Emperor resolutely abandoned his efforts, a brilliant battle intent igniting in his gaze.
In the following instant, his versions across timelines sprang into motion, some brandishing massive spears, others clutching lengthy blades, and some relying on fists alone.
Every incarnation of him employed utterly distinct martial techniques, each bursting with astonishing force, approaching the essence of the Dao in terror, carrying overwhelming power in every action.
"You!"
Following a short exchange, the Time Master displayed an expression of astonishment and doubt.
In earlier confrontations, it had employed Cosmic Division Light to split adversaries into different timelines, then used varied approaches with each timeline's form to wipe out the enemy's forms sequentially, building an escalating edge.
However, right now, once separated, the Martial Emperor battled with the comfort of his own domain, effortlessly.
Since each timeline's form adopted unique tactics, the Time Master confronted Martial Emperors wielding diverse skills across timelines, swiftly eroding its upper hand.
The rate at which both sides' forms fell was roughly equal.
How does this human command so many techniques?
The Time Master felt profound astonishment.
A piercing gleam sparked in the main timeline Martial Emperor's eyes.
Who is he?
He stands as the pinnacle of the martial path, the unchallenged supreme authority.
Beyond just the Emperor Martial Palace in the West Profound Domain, he devised numerous martial techniques even in the Eastern Extreme Domain and Northern Divine Domain!
Moreover, over those years of dormancy via hidden methods, the Martial Emperor dwelled in perpetual soul awakening.
Though he couldn't act, resembling a sealed corpse in a sarcophagus, his extraordinary genius allowed him to invent countless martial techniques anew.
When it came to techniques, he held no fear toward the Time Master whatsoever!
With the moments ticking away, the vigor of both the Martial Emperor and the Time Master visibly diminished.
Realizing it had clashed with the Martial Emperor through numerous exchanges without gaining victory, the Time Master grew truly restless.
"Martial Emperor, you’re pushing me!"
It bellowed, a profound rhythmic thumping echoing relentlessly from the emptiness.
From the void materialized a heart forged purely from Time Rules.
This heart appeared vibrant, unleashing immense rule energy with every pulse.
"It’s Time’s Heart!"
Within the Immortal Phoenix Sect, Qiuqiu's expression shifted dramatically at the sight.
Unlike Qiuqiu's own Time’s Heart, the Time Master's version seemed even more potent, as though on the verge of merging into its very body.
This heart had been cultivated and empowered by mythic-level Divine Rules, forming the most perfected Time’s Heart.
Earlier, Lin Su and Qiuqiu had guessed that the Time Master's Heavenly Rank Secret Realm was probably the Time Pavilion.
Yet now, with the Time Master unveiling a Time’s Heart achievable only through the Time Pavilion's inheritance, this suspicion solidified into fact.
"This isn’t good!" Recalling a particular entry in the Time Scripture, Qiuqiu's countenance grew ever more somber, "It’s going to self-destruct the Time’s Heart!"
This represents the ultimate explosive forbidden art of the Time Pavilion school.
By offering up the Time’s Heart, it could forcefully dictate the enemy's destiny!
Without the foe's strength vastly surpassing its own, resisting this desperate forbidden method is exceedingly tough!
While the Martial Emperor's might is impressive, it doesn't clearly outstrip the Time Master's by a wide margin.
"Lanlan, try to warn the Martial Emperor." Lin Su urged without delay.
Despite harboring no affection for the Martial Emperor, the Time Master posed a far more pressing danger.
The choice of whom to aid in this instant was obvious.
Lanlan gave a nod, and the view ahead faded swiftly.
At the edge where the West Profound Domain met the Endless Sea, a pure water elemental faith incarnation soared skyward, promptly crossing into the West Profound Domain, its vast energy swelling into a resounding call.
"Martial Emperor, be careful!"
Though a clash between mythic rank and Martial God Realm lay beyond the faith incarnation's reach to join, relaying a message remained within its capabilities.
In the next breath, a strand of Time system's Rule Power raced over and annihilated that faith incarnation.
Back in the Immortal Phoenix Sect, Lanlan conjured another faith incarnation with a gesture, resuming their observation.
It had no shortage except for faith incarnations.
The Martial Emperor's features altered subtly. Hearing that unfamiliar cautionary tone, his soul's intuition also detected a chilling peril.
The very next second, he firmly seized the Extreme Martial Emperor’s Abyssal Spear in one grip and pulled out the Soul Suppressing Sword with the other.
The Martial World’s Heaven Armor surged with unmatched ferocity, hurling the Martial Emperor away in a flash.
"Too late!"
The Time Master's howl, entwined with a horrifying blast.
