Chapter 59: Main Body
"What is this?" The Medicine King looked at the light sphere in Lin Xiyue's hand in terror; he felt a familiar aura, yet could not remember where he had seen it.
"This is..." Lin Xiyue took a deep breath and said word by word, "Your main body!"
"What?!" The Medicine King widened his eyes, looking at the light sphere in Lin Xiyue's hand in disbelief. "This is impossible! My main body was clearly..."
"Your main body was sealed by me in the deepest part of the Memory Lighthouse long ago!" Lin Xiyue said coldly. "You think you were just a remnant soul? No, you were just a part of my main body, which I deliberately separated to lure you into the trap!"
"You... you actually..." The Medicine King was terrified; he had never expected that after ten thousand years of painstaking management, he would ultimately fall into Lin Xiyue's trap.
"Now, it's time to end it!" As Lin Xiyue spoke, the light sphere in her hand suddenly shone brightly, and a powerful suction force shrouded the Medicine King.
"No——I will not lose! I am the Medicine King! I am the greatest healer in this world! I..."
The Medicine King's roar grew smaller and smaller, eventually disappearing into the light sphere.
The light sphere gradually dimmed, eventually turning into specks of starlight and dissipating in the air.
Lin Xiyue collapsed to the ground powerlessly, her face as pale as paper.
"Xiyue!" Tang Yun hurriedly ran to Lin Xiyue's side and held her in his arms. "Are you okay? Are you alright?"
"I'm fine..." Lin Xiyue shook her head weakly. "Just... excessive consumption..."
"You rest well, leave the rest to me." Tang Yun looked at Lin Xiyue with heartache, gently placed her on the ground, then stood up, looking coldly at his surroundings.
"Who else? Come out!"
In the silent space, Tang Yun's voice was like heavy hammers striking everyone's heart. However, apart from the echo, there was no other response.
"Could it be... that it's really over?" Tang Yun muttered to himself, his brows furrowed.
Lin Xiyue struggled to stand up and walked to Tang Yun's side, gently holding his hand.
"Don't worry, even if there are still enemies, we will face them together." Lin Xiyue's voice was weak, yet filled with firmness.
Tang Yun held Lin Xiyue's hand back, and a warm current came from her palm, making his originally restless mood gradually calm down.
Just then, the entire space began to shake violently, as if a massive earthquake had occurred.
"What's going on?" Tang Yun's expression changed, and he looked around vigilantly.
"Not good, the 'Causality Furnace' has been activated!" Lin Xiyue's expression became incredibly ugly. "We must leave here immediately!"
"'Causality Furnace'? What is that?" Tang Yun was bewildered.
"No time to explain, follow me!" Lin Xiyue grabbed Tang Yun's hand and ran toward a corner of the space.
As the shaking became more violent, the space began to distort and deform, and cracks appeared in the void, as if they were about to devour the entire world.
"Hahaha, it's too late! You can't escape!"
A cold voice echoed in the space, and a man wearing a black robe and a hideous mask walked out from the void.
"Who are you?" Tang Yun asked vigilantly.
"Who am I? Hahaha, you will know soon enough!" The black-robed man laughed crazily, reaching out his hand, and a powerful suction force shrouded Tang Yun and Lin Xiyue.
"Not good!" Tang Yun was shocked, wanting to resist, only to find his body as if imprisoned, unable to move at all.
"Kid, your power is very strong, but unfortunately, you met me!" The black-robed man sneered, pulling Tang Yun and Lin Xiyue before him. "Now, let me see what you are made of!"
As the black-robed man spoke, he reached out and took off the mask on his face, revealing a face exactly the same as Tang Yun's!
"You... who are you?" Tang Yun looked at this person who looked exactly like him in shock, his mind blank.
"I am you, but not you." The black-robed man sneered. "I am the future you, the you who was distorted by the 'Causality Furnace' and became a Time Devourer!"
"Time Devourer?" Tang Yun looked at this "self" before him in disbelief, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart.
"That's right, I am the Time Devourer!" The black-robed man laughed crazily. "I can devour all time, including your past, present, and future!"
"You... what do you want to do?" Tang Yun endured the fear in his heart and asked.
"What do I want to do? Hahaha, it's simple, I want to devour your timeline, become the real you, and then control the entire universe!" The black-robed man laughed arrogantly, his eyes flickering with crazy light.
"Dream on!" Tang Yun roared, his internal power surging crazily, wanting to break free from the black-robed man's control.
"It's useless, your power is nothing before me!" The black-robed man snorted coldly, increasing his power output.
"Ah——"
Tang Yun roared in pain, feeling as if his body were about to be torn apart.
"Tang Yun!"
Lin Xiyue called Tang Yun's name anxiously, but was powerless.
"Hahaha, despair! Fear! This is your fate!" The black-robed man laughed crazily, enjoying Tang Yun's pain.
Just then, the rune on Lin Xiyue's wrist suddenly shone brightly, and a powerful force erupted from her body, pushing the black-robed man back a few steps.
"What?!" The black-robed man looked at Lin Xiyue in suspicion. "Who are you?"
"Who am I? I am the Holy Maiden who guards the order of time!" Lin Xiyue said coldly, a flash of determination in her eyes. "'Time Origami Art', activate!"
As soon as the words fell, Lin Xiyue formed hand seals rapidly, and golden runes flew from her hands, weaving into a massive golden array in the air.
"This is..." The black-robed man looked at the golden array before him in terror, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.
"'Time Origami Art' can strip a piece of space from the river of time, forming an independent space-time." Lin Xiyue explained. "In this space-time, your time-devouring ability will be ineffective!"
"You... you actually..." The black-robed man looked at Lin Xiyue in disbelief; he had never expected that there would be someone in this world capable of restraining his time-devouring ability!
"Tang Yun, hurry and enter the array!" Lin Xiyue shouted anxiously.
Tang Yun heard this and, enduring the intense pain in his body, rushed toward the golden array.
"Want to run? Not that easy!" The black-robed man saw this and roared, pouncing toward Tang Yun again.
"Your opponent is me!" Lin Xiyue blocked Tang Yun's path, a flash of golden light in her hand, and a golden long sword appeared in her hand.
"Overestimating your own abilities!" The black-robed man snorted coldly, punching toward Lin Xiyue. ===== CHAPTER 60 =====
