Chapter 236: with translation of chapter title

Heavenly Dao Chief finally glanced at Jiang Xia, who was fighting, and then immediately pressed the Sea Pa Worm on his waist.

Sea Pa Jia Dou, under those splendid wings, was like a tiny speck of light, rushing toward that enormous meteorite.

"No!"

The Alien Insect, tightly entwined by the dark Kiva, let out a roar, but now her wings were broken; even if her body recovered quickly, she could no longer use acceleration.

"HyperClockup!"

At the moment Sea Pa Jia Dou touched the meteorite, splendid aurora burst forth, exceeding-limit acceleration activated, and the huge meteorite vanished in an instant.

A strong spacetime disturbance quickly enveloped the still-fighting Jiang Xia and the Alien Insect Queen.

"Bang!"

The vivid red Magic Emperor Sword clashed head-on with the Alien Insect Queen once again.

On this moon, which had no air, no humans, and not even any temperature, snow suddenly began to fall.

That was the legendary spacetime snow, which appears only when time is greatly altered, or even when it cannot be reversed.

Everything in this timeline will be reset to the very beginning, except for the two of them, who will not be affected.

The original moon also began to become somewhat illusory with the flow of time, and Jiang Xia had been waiting for this moment.

He is a singularity, unaffected by temporal tampering, and this physique helped him greatly at this moment.

Rixia Bu Xi, who was waiting for the battle's outcome, also began to turn somewhat illusory, as if she could not escape fate's arrangement.

Her body slowly turned into green specks of light, flying toward Earth.

The Alien Insect Queen's body also lunged rapidly at Jiang Xia; she knew this place would soon vanish, but if she could devour Jiang Xia beforehand, there was still time.

When the time snow enveloped everything, Jiang Xia took a whistle from the dark Kiva's waist and inserted it into the Kiva's mouth.

"WakeUp2"

The sky gradually turned blood-red; beneath the falling snow, a dark red light shone through the vast whiteness, illuminating the cape that could devour everything.

The destructive Magic Emperor power instantly concentrated on his feet, turning into blood-red fangs.

"Boom!"

The crimson fangs fiercely pierced the Alien Insect Queen's body, causing explosive, tearing damage.

At this moment, the surroundings vanished completely, replaced by two exploding meteorites that triggered a tremendous explosion.

Countless Alien Insects turned into energy in space; those specks of light wrapped around Jiang Xia's body, and this time he finally received an energy replenishment.

Likewise, the Alien Insect Queen, who had again time-traveled, let out a wail; the fragments on her body spread again, and a tremendous force kicked her toward the moon.

"Boom!"

Countless gullies on the moon interconnected, ultimately forming a super-gigantic pattern etched into the moon.

The Alien Insect Queen's shattered body lay exactly at the center of that pattern.

"You can't kill me; I am a creature that can control time."

The Alien Insect Queen looked at her shattered body, spat out a mouthful of blood, and said, "But your body is already on the verge of collapse."

At this moment, the Magic Emperor power on Jiang Xia's body slowly dissipated: "I know this; you think I chose the moon as the battlefield for no reason."

"Could it be you? You did this on purpose!"

"Who knows?"

The crimson Magic Emperor power flared up again, piercing the Alien Insect Queen's body entirely; the huge Kiva emblem instantly lit up, completely enveloping her.

And the core, already riddled with cracks, shattered completely at this moment.

"Alien Insect Queen, seal." The Kiva belt at his waist issued the final verdict.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xia's waist also gained a whistling made of jade-green, but it kept trembling, constantly trying to break the seal; the dark Kiva's crimson electric arc flashed by and struck that jade-green whistle directly.

Inside the moon, a huge Kiva emblem hovered above, the crimson electric arc turning into lightning snakes that constantly weaved through the emblem, striking the crystal tree at its center from time to time.

On that transparent crystal tree, many black chains tightly bound its branches, rendering it immobile.

However, if observed closely, one would notice that each time the electric light struck, the crystal giant tree's trunk, resembling a work of art, would unnaturally jerk and struggle.

After a brief moment, it would return to a different state of stillness.

Jiang Xia's vitality quickly waned; he coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the power gained by burning his life was destined not to last.

He too had his limits; after subduing the Alien Insect Queen, he could no longer hold on.

Fortunately, it was not as severe as before; it was merely excessive power consumption, and with replenishment he could recover quickly.

He now lacks only one more life; killing it once more would completely eradicate it.

From analyzing the Alien Insect core data, we see that the Alien Insect Queen possesses a means of resurrection, and it is not an ordinary one—the Time-Stopping Insect's resurrection ability stems from her.

Once she is killed, her resurrection ability will activate, evolving corresponding defensive capabilities from the attacks she suffered.

Moreover, on the previous asteroid she had already used this resurrection method; after that, the Alien Insect Queen gained extraordinarily strong defenses, even able to block the Magic Emperor Sword in its normal state with bare hands.

And this time, once resurrected, her strength will swiftly return to its former level.

But this time, Jiang Xia happened to hit a bug; having continually injected Magic Emperor power into the Alien Insect Queen's body during earlier battles, he could precisely sense when to trigger the seal.

Combining the Alien Insect core with the dark Kiva is enough to firmly imprint the seal deep within her body—a move that even resurrection cannot evade.

The dark Kiva on Jiang Xia, which had reached its limit, slowly retracted into the Kiva's body; the dark Kiva armor was fine, but his internal energy could no longer sustain him wearing it.

He was utterly exhausted, able only to let his body collapse onto the moon.

At this moment, the explosion from the collision of the two meteorites also erupted in outer space, countless fragments scattering; the vast majority of Alien Insects were destroyed at the moment of impact.

However, some of the meteorites caused a concomitant impact, burning with flames as they fell toward Earth.

The largest piece happened to fall in Shibuya, Japan.

Heavenly Dao Chief, meanwhile, was caught in the meteorite's collision wave; his whole body instantly plummeted downward, and the intense friction from the rapid fall surrounded him with intense heat.

Suddenly, the Sea Pa Worm on his waist emitted a green halo, forcibly stabilizing his body.

With a click, the surrounding time came to a halt.

The dual wings behind Sea Pa Jia Dou burst with energy particles again; this time he did not fly toward Earth but headed for the moon.

However, if one observes carefully, one can see that Sea Pa Jia Dou's body has begun to turn slightly illusory.

The Heavenly Dao Chief also noticed the abnormality in his body, but he did not utter a word, merely silently rushing to the moon.

The Heavenly Dao Chief landed, extending his hand that had become somewhat translucent; Jiang Xia summoned his feeble strength and grabbed his hand.

As Jiang Xia gripped tightly, the Heavenly Dao Chief pulled him up.

At this moment, the sun's radiance shot from the distant universe, a faint warm light, showering onto the moon's surface, brightly illuminating the two figures.

The Heavenly Dao Chief gently removed the Sea Pa Worm and the ZECT belt from his waist, handing them to Jiang Xia and said, "The future of this world is entrusted to you."

"Finally, take good care of Xiao Xi."

Having said that, the Heavenly Dao Chief's body gradually turned into white light and became increasingly transparent.

A phantom dial flickered within his body and then vanished along with him.

"Don't worry, I will look after her."

Watching the Heavenly Dao Chief's disappearing back, Jiang Xia nodded, and a ZECT belt appeared on his body.

Time particles surged again, and Sea Pa Jia Dou traced a bright line across space, just as when he first transformed into a meteorite and fell to Earth.

Except this was Earth seven years ago.

"There?"

Although Shibuya had already become ruins, fires raged everywhere, and Jiang Xia, following the Earth Library, found the Heavenly Dao Chief buried under the debris.

"Are you the Divine Lord?"

The young Tiandao gazed at the pair of splendid wings, bewildered by the Sea Pa Jia Dou descending in white light.

"No, I am merely representing Tiandao." Jiang Xia whispered.

"Tiandao, isn't that his surname?"

The boy examined the belt on his hand, silently observing him, as if trying to memorize the appearance of Sea Pa Jia Dou.

"Go, now you have seized the future."

A flash of lightning passed, and the powerful force generated by the belt pushed aside the boulder that had been pressing on the boy, and slowly walked out toward the mimetic Rixia Bu couple and Rixia Bu Xi.

At the same time, a green speck of light containing emotional memory power fell from the cosmos, gradually merging into Rixia Bu Xi's body, and awakening her from her coma.

The smoke-filled ruins resembled a deep passage, as faint light slowly seeped in from the cave mouth.

At that faintly lit cave mouth, she saw a person wearing a metal belt slowly walking toward her parents.

Amid the rumbling roar, dust filled the air, and the faint light filtering through also grew dim.

When Rixia Bu Xi awoke again, she found herself lying in a hospital.

The young Yumiya Yumiko, seeing Rixia Bu Xi wake up, exclaimed excitedly: "Xiao Xi, how are you? Do you feel any discomfort?"

"Where are Mom and Dad?" Rixia Bu Xi widened her eyes, asking hopefully.

"Your parents, they have already…"

Upon hearing the answer, Rixia Bu Xi's heart fell into a daze, as if she had seen that belt once again.

"Exactly, it was the belt-wearing person who killed her parents; there's no mistake."

The young Tiandao, hiding nearby, seeing his sister unharmed, dragged his exhausted body away in silence.

The belt still placed a somewhat excessive burden on a child.

The invisible Jiang Xia, watching the Heavenly Dao Chief from the side, sighed, still so unforthcoming.

He had largely recovered his mobility, looked up at the moon hidden within the intense light, and could see, could see the Alien Insect Queen frantically struggling.

However, it seemed there was now enough time for him to complete his original plan.
