Family Management Game In Immortal Continent Chapter 812: Time

Riiip!

The roar of the divine statues resonated through the air.

Saber shadows, born from Zhao Tingyu’s profound techniques, relentlessly hacked at his foes within the Void Refining Space. Yet, in a sudden shift, Zhao Tingyu ceased his offensive momentum.

He found himself unable to maintain the barrage required to demolish the remaining divine statues.

Instead, he was doing the unthinkable... he was retreating!

The one hunting him was none other than the Li Family Old Ancestor, a man who had seemed like one of the most unremarkable figures present until this very moment.

“How can this be... how did you manage to strike me? I sensed nothing... How is it possible that my perception failed me?!!”

The boundaries of the Void Refining Space were fixed and rigid.

As Zhao Tingyu scrambled through this arena—a space far too cramped for a cultivator of the Void Refining realm—he clamped a hand over his left shoulder.

The Dharma Treasure robe protecting him had been shredded; his fingers could feel the jagged edges of his own bone and the warmth of raw flesh through the tear.

Before his eyes, his palm was stained a brilliant, shocking crimson!

“It isn’t space. This definitely isn’t a manipulation of space. It is...”

He kept his spiritual senses locked behind him, tracking every movement.

Old Ancestor Li continued to employ the “Heaven, Earth” technique, flickering through the air to evade the whistling saber blades.

Suddenly, Zhao Tingyu’s senses went dark.

A primal alarm blared in his heart, more intense than ever before, forcing him to lunge forward with all his might!

But by the time he realized the danger...

Riiip!

The spear bit deep again. Another wound was carved into his shoulder blade!

...

“Time!”

Grand Elder Puci watched the chase within the confined space, his expression one of pure bewilderment.

“This defies logic!”

He had also been tracking Old Ancestor Li’s teleportation ability.

In this world, such a skill was a priceless rarity; whether used for a swift escape or a lethal ambush, it was considered a supreme technique.

Even a low-tier manual containing a teleportation method would be a coveted prize for those in the Void Refining realm.

Most hoped that by mastering such a technique, they might eventually grasp the fundamental “Law of Space.”

Upon reaching the Void Refining realm, a cultivator naturally gains an innate understanding of spatial dimensions.

By burning through vast reserves of spiritual power, teleportation becomes possible, and one becomes hypersensitive to even the most minute spatial ripples.

Naturally, Grand Elder Puci was more than capable of detecting the fluctuations of a teleportation technique.

However, at the exact moment Old Ancestor Li vanished and reappeared, Puci felt absolutely no disturbance in the space around them.

Despite the lack of ripples, Old Ancestor Li had materialized right at Zhao Tingyu’s side as if by a miracle.

This was not the work of Space Laws.

“It can only be Time Laws... This is...”

A look of horror crossed Grand Elder Puci’s face.

Among the various Laws governing the world, Time was indisputably the most enigmatic and formidable.

He had only encountered mentions of it in crumbling ancient scrolls; he had never heard of a single living cultivator in this era capable of wielding such Laws or techniques.

“To think I actually... commanded a cultivator who masters Time Laws to merely provide support?”

He had completely ceased his own movements, forgetting the battle.

In truth, there was no longer a need for him to intervene while Zhao Tingyu was being systematically hunted by Old Ancestor Li.

At most, his role was now reduced to guarding the perimeter to ensure Zhao Tingyu could not break free and flee.

Grand Elder Puci stole a glance at Li Dalong and Li Yaozu.

Observing that the father and son were also frozen in stunned silence, the wave of embarrassment that had colored his face began to fade.

Inside that chaotic space—drenched in a Sea of Blood, vibrating with lethal Metal energy, and choked by freezing mists—Old Ancestor Li appeared once more before Zhao Tingyu.

In this instant.

Every other Law and technique seemed to wither into insignificance.

“A genuine Monster.”

...

“Heaven, Earth, and the Mortal Realm!”

“Pagoda, Suppress!”

Dong!

The Yin-Yang Fish Diagram spun and leaped with grace.

Li Wei moved with lethal fluidity: retracting the pagoda, summoning it anew, channeling spiritual power to toll the suppression bell, and thrusting the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear—all in a single, unbroken heartbeat!

This marked his debut in combat since ascending to the Void Refining realm.

With his breakthrough, his spiritual power had surged, the teleportation of “Heaven, Earth, and the Mortal Realm” had reached new speeds, and the Yin-Yang Fish Diagram provided a far more potent energy source. His Yin-Yang bloodline made his spiritual output incredibly dense.

“I... I actually managed to stab him?”

Li Wei felt a brief moment of shock as the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear sank into Zhao Tingyu’s flesh.

He knew he could evade Zhao Tingyu’s lethal strikes using his movement technique, and he felt his own power was immense.

Yet, when the strike actually connected, Li Wei found it hard to believe his own success!

He could still feel the crushing pressure and the weight of Zhao Tingyu’s massive spiritual power trying to suppress him.

Initially, he had only hoped to harass Zhao Tingyu; he had even steeled himself to be overpowered by the Zhao clan expert, just as Li Yaozu had been.

After all, he was currently utilizing the “Void-Soul Exchanging Dao Technique,” just like Li Yaozu.

He had been traveling constantly and hadn't found the leisure to study the intricacies of space; his command over Void Refining spiritual power was even less refined than Li Yaozu’s.

But now, the truth was clear—he had grossly underestimated the scale of his own strength!

Li Wei didn't allow himself to remain dazed for long.

As Zhao Tingyu turned to flee, Li Wei gave chase immediately.

His mind raced, still reeling from the “pleasant surprise” of wounding his opponent.

He closed the gap once more!

Riiip!

He lunged at Zhao Tingyu again.

The nearer he drew to his target, the more it felt like he was wading through a thick quagmire of energy!

Regardless, the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear struck true again.

The Yin-Yang Fish from his Divinity Transformation Domain expanded, and the Glacial Laws from his core began to saturate the entire space.

Zhao Tingyu continued his desperate flight.

But this time, for the first time in the encounter, Li Wei came to a halt.

He stopped the pursuit and instead allowed his spiritual power to wash over the entirety of the Void Refining Space.

“Time.”
