Let’s get to the point.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You see your current situation; we know why you steal time, we know most of those you killed weren’t innocent, and we know that when you return to the past, the dead revive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But those are all plot devices from the story. For the real you, to claim we don’t care—or that we fully trust you—is impossible.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If your power were great enough that we couldn’t stop you, we’d have no choice but to trust you; but—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mengyao glanced at the bound Shiqi Kuangsan and shrugged slightly; the implication of her next words was obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Shiqi Kuangsan were as powerful as a Primordial Spirit, she could do whatever she pleased, and no one could stop her—only hope she wouldn’t “eat beef.” But she wasn’t nearly that strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cooperation would be best for both sides; life force isn’t something that must come from humans—there are so many mutated creatures, and no one would stop Shiqi Kuangsan from stealing their life force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she refuses to cooperate and resists the Tian Shu Bureau; naturally, they can’t fully trust her “goodness”—this isn’t the Shiqi Kuangsan before she became a spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, what do you want me to do with my abilities?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shiqi Kuangsan lifted her gaze to Su Mengyao, a faint smile on her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since she’d been captured and faced an opponent she couldn’t oppose, continuing to resist was clearly unwise; she didn’t want to remain sealed here forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though her clones still roamed the outside world, relying on them to rescue her true body? The chance of success was far too slim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mengyao didn’t answer directly, but asked instead:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can you use the Sixth Bullet, the Eleventh Bullet, and the Twelfth Bullet of Kekkai?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze was intensely serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among Shiqi Kuangsan’s abilities, these three weren’t the strongest—but to Su Mengyao, they were the most critical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sixth Bullet transfers consciousness to a past version of oneself; the Eleventh Bullet sends a target to the future; the Twelfth Bullet sends a target back to the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If these abilities could be used, no cost would be too great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Impossible.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shiqi Kuangsan shook her head decisively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I could, I wouldn’t be in this world—I’d have returned to my original one.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tone was calm, yet carried a faint, almost imperceptible sadness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she could use them, she wouldn’t have been captured, nor would she still be in this world—she’d have sent herself back to before she ever came here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mengyao wasn’t surprised, only slightly disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because their world suffers from “dimensional invasions,” they believed time-based abilities were inherently suppressed—traveling to the future or returning to the past seemed unrealistic to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it appeared they were right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What about the Ninth Bullet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ninth Bullet connects consciousness with individuals on different timelines—if it could be used—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, her idea had collapsed before it even began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What about the Fourth Bullet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Su Mengyao’s tone grew noticeably tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fourth Bullet reverses time for the target struck—not only for Shiqi Kuangsan herself, but for any living being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clearly remembered: in the original story, Shiqi Kuangsan had used this ability on a kitten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shiqi Kuangsan keenly sensed Su Mengyao’s emotional shift and smiled slightly; then she added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But it doesn’t work on those already dead—they have no time trajectory left to rewind.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mengyao sighed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew this well—she’d studied Shiqi Kuangsan’s abilities—but even with preparation, hearing it confirmed still brought disappointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If even the time of the dead could be reversed, perhaps the world they longed for—where no one truly dies—could be realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, mutated creatures might die more often; but who cares about the lives of mutated creatures?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If death is extremely recent—say, the heart has just stopped, but brain death hasn’t occurred yet—could the Fourth Bullet rewind time?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was what Su Mengyao truly wanted to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qingyao’s Dual Hands Healing was powerful, but required time to cast—on the battlefield, there was no time for her to act; and Jiang Qingyao was only one person—the Tian Shu Bureau could never let her operate on the front lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Shiqi Kuangsan was different—she could simultaneously use her Eighth Bullet clones and Fourth Bullet time reversal on the battlefield, making her the perfect battlefield support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Imagine this scene:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever a soldier was wounded, a clone would instantly appear, a soft gunshot echoed, the glow of the Fourth Bullet enveloped the injured—their wounds reversed, healed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When someone teetered on the brink of death but hadn’t yet truly passed, time reversal could snatch them back from Death’s grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If used properly, casualties during beast surges could be reduced to the absolute minimum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only constraint was time consumption—but time? Again, who cared if mutated creatures lost their time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too bad the legendary kitchenware currently exists as only one piece—if all were gathered, let Lin Miao cook a dish and achieve immortality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would time still be a problem for them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Shiqi Kuangsan needing to expend spiritual energy? That’s fine—there’s plenty of spiritual energy in the neighboring realm; is there really so little on Blue Planet?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None of these were problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only problem was whether Shiqi Kuangsan could truly stand with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Zhong Lao’s contract contained the power of the Rock God, breaking it would bring punishment—but Shiqi Kuangsan, as a Time Spirit, could use Kekkai to transfer her consciousness into a body before she signed the contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the contract would be useless to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one who signed was me in this second—what does that have to do with me from a second ago?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, it’s tricky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shiqi Kuangsan naturally didn’t know what Su Mengyao was thinking; she merely laughed softly upon hearing the question:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How greedy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But… at this level, it’s certainly possible.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze fixed on Su Mengyao, her head tilted slightly; the hair on her left side swayed, revealing the concealed left eye—molten gold slowly flowing within its iris.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then her tone shifted, becoming playful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But what will you offer in exchange? After all, what’s being consumed is my time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being able to do something and wanting to do it are two different things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could accomplish these things—but what could they offer in return?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You needn’t worry about time—we’ll find a way to solve it for you. If you have any needs, state them—we’ll do our best to fulfill them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If the Primordial Spirit ever appears in reality, and after seeing the story of your original world, you still wish to kill her—and if Daya has the power to kill her by then—we will help you kill her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If there’s any way to return you to your original world, we will do everything we can to help you go back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shiqi Kuangsan wanted to kill Sōgū Mio not only because Mio’s deception and betrayal led Shiqi Kuangsan to mistakenly kill her dear friend Yamada Saya, but because Mio was the origin of all spirits—her existence caused the emergence of all subsequent spirits and the tragedies between spirits and humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1603,"2026-06-20T13:10:12.391Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e143154341eb7a1bbcbd7ac439dcb1839195cf49f745b13345c5eb4df555b652","dimensional-invasion-i-can-fish-the-all-heavens-chapter-183","dimensional-invasion-i-can-fish-the-all-heavens-chapter-181",193,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdimensional-invasion-i-can-fish-the-all-heavens-cover.jpg"]
