Chapter 1022: Turn Back Time

Panda Novel

So, this is the control over space and time… thought Luo Feng.

He sensed that the intangible power enveloping him was neither space nor time but a force that was superior to both.

Blade River Emperor rose up gradually. At that moment, he was like the sun coming out, attracting attention from all the heirs.

Thunder Beast God looked down with his eyes of thunder. His eyes glinted with friendliness, and the power enfolding Luo Feng vanished, dazing Luo Feng. Thunder Beast God opened his mouth and started to talk.

"Blade River," Thunder Beast God said.

Luo Feng gave a salutation in the sky. "Beast God!" he said.

"Your power, your improvement, and your will all satisfy me," Thunder Beast God said. He looked down and concentrated on Luo Feng. "I'll bestow you a valuable."

Hua…

Almost all the heirs down on the ground were thrilled and couldn't help talking among themselves.

"It's indeed a public bestowal!"

"Thunder Beast God arrived here himself to bestow a valuable!"

"It has to be a true treasure. Why else would Thunder Beast God be here? Blade River Emperor is so lucky that he's going to get a true treasure again!"

The heirs were all excited, and Thunder Beast God didn't stop their discussions. He was happy to see other heirs jealous.

"What's all the fuss about?" said one heir. "If you could kill Bark Mirror Emperor as an undying fighter, the Ancestral God School would also think highly of you and bestow you with a valuable."

"Blade River Emperor is at the same level as Zhu Chong Emperor, who was given a valuable in public before."

"I'll train myself! Perhaps someday I can have the same treatment."

******

Luo Feng couldn't hear the discussions on the ground. Neither did he want to hear them. He was looking forward to the true treasure with exhilaration.

"Thank you, Beast God!" Luo Feng saluted him.

"Keep up your hard work!" Thunder Beast God's voice rumbled.

Meanwhile, a gigantic ball of lightning showed up in front of him. The ball had a diameter of tens of thousands of miles, and it flew toward Luo Feng like a meteor.

The lightning vanished as the light ball dove down. When it dropped to Luo Feng, the lightning completely disappeared, leaving only an ancient mirror with a diameter of hundreds of miles. The mirror was round and golden, emitting golden light from its surface. It stopped moving directly in front of Luo Feng.

Luo Feng looked at the giant mirror in front of him, perplexed.

"A mirror?" Luo Feng blinked.

"I believe it will be of good use to you," Thunder Beast God said, looking down. Each of his eyes was larger than the mirror. "Take it."

"Yes," Luo Feng answered respectfully. He stored the ancient mirror in his world ring. As for studying the valuable, Luo Feng decided to do it after the Beast God departed. After all, beast gods were of high status in the Ancestral God School.

Thunder Beast God smiled and said, "Don't disappoint me, Blade River."

Hong!

Thunder Beast God disappeared, and so did the intangible power. Everything on Bauhinia Island was back to how it had been, and all the heirs on the ground were quickly engaged in heated discussions about what had just happened. Many heirs of other races rushed to try to talk to Luo Feng.

"Congratulations, Blade River Emperor."

"Congratulations on getting another true treasure, Blade River Emperor."

Luo Feng smiled and went back to his palace immediately. He didn't want to talk to other great beings. This baffled them.

"What is that mirror-like valuable?" asked one heir as Luo Feng left.

"I don't know," replied another. "I've seen some mirror-type true treasures used to aid illusion attacks."

"Blade River Emperor is proficient in spiritual force weapons. Why would the Ancestral God School give him a valuable to aid illusion attacks?"

"Don't make random assumptions. Perhaps only Blade River Emperor knows what it is used for."

******

Hustle and bustle filled Bauhinia Island, and the news that Thunder Beast God had arrived on the island and personally bestowed Luo Feng with a valuable had quickly spread. At the same time… Northern Territory Alliance got the news.

A white-haired, four-hoofed being walked into the area and said, "Haha… The Ancestral God School has been using the same techniques since the beginning of the universe. They immediately started to draw Blade River Emperor to their side after seeing how excellent he is. Wu… Pei Feng, did Bark Mirror Emperor come here before?"

"Yes, teacher," Pei Feng Knight said as he followed him. "Bark Mirror Emperor did come here before, and he stood on the square in front of my palace."

"When?" the white-haired and four-hoofed being asked.

"Three years ago," Pei Feng Knight answered.

"Okay."

The white-haired and four-hoofed being walked slowly through the area and stopped on a square in front of a floating palace. Pei Feng Knight followed respectfully.

"Leave me first, as I'll turn back time," the white-haired and four-hoofed being said. "Don't be in my range."

"Yes." Pei Feng Knight's eyes gleamed.

Pei Feng Knight flew to a distant place like a beam of light and looked toward his teacher, full of expectations. Though he was a universe overlord, he had only witnessed universe masters performing the "Turning Back Time" technique once before. "Turning Back Time" could injure universe masters, and if a universe master was severely injured, enemies could take advantage of the chance to kill him. This was why universe masters preferred to perform it in secret, unless they trusted the witnesses completely or the chance was small that it would backfire.

Howl! Howl! Howl!

The white-haired and four-hoofed being growled and looked around calmly.

Hu! Hu! Hu!

The time in the space around him started to go backward!

It was like a movie being rewound at a rapid rate. Many heirs came here on the square, the all the great beings were flying backward—even speaking backward. Time was quickly being turned backward. It all seemed like a strange illusion.

Sou!

Time suddenly stopped, and so did the scenes before them. Bark Mirror Emperor was talking to Pei Feng Knight in the scene when time had paused.

"That's me!" Pei Feng Knight said, looking at the paused scene from afar. It was Bark Mirror Emperor standing with him.

******

Everything was illusory in the space and time affected by "Turning Back Time." Only the white-haired and four-hoofed being was real.

"Bark Mirror Emperor," said the white-haired and four-hoofed being, looking at Bark Mirror Emperor. "Come, my child!"

The white-haired, four-hoofed being whispered, and an intangible power quickly put Bark Mirror Emperor under its protection.

"Go back."

Hong!

Everything started to be restored. It was like a coiled spring; at some point, it would spring back!

The universe was able to recover itself, and after a universe master turned back time, the universe would reverse it! Every point in time was in the past for the universe and should not exist at present. The universe would bite back if someone tried to break this rule.

"Ah! Ah!" Bark Mirror Emperor screamed. Ethereal power enveloped him continuously.

The white-haired and four-hoofed being watched calmly. He was protecting Bark Mirror Emperor and transferring the backlash of the universe to himself. He was a universe master, and thus he was strong enough to resist such power.

"Ah! Ah—aah!" Bark Mirror Emperor uttered heart-rending cries, overcome with agony.

The universe kept biting back. The power could easily kill Bark Mirror Emperor! Reversing time and resurrection were against universe law, which would be punished by the universe. However, universe masters volunteered to bear such punishment!

After a short while, everything was back to normal, but Bark Mirror Emperor now stood on the square, looking around in confusion.

"I… What happened?" asked Bark Mirror Emperor.

"Teacher!" Pei Feng Knight said, flying toward Bark Mirror Emperor.

The white-haired and four-hoofed creature nodded and looked at Bark Mirror Emperor. "It's done," he said. "Bark Mirror Emperor, you've been resurrected. Do not forget that you have died once."

"I have… died once." Bark Mirror Emperor was dazed. Suddenly, all the memories flooded his mind. "It was him! It was him! Blade River Emperor!" Bark Mirror Emperor's eyes glinted with bitterness… and madness. He quickly noticed that something wrong. "My true treasures—where are my true treasures?"

The white-haired and four-hoofed being looked down at Bark Mirror Emperor and said, "Bark Mirror Emperor, my job was only to protect you when I reserved the time. I won't bring a true treasure back. It would cost more than obtaining ten more new true treasures. I'll only resurrect you. Those true treasures and ordinary treasures you had are all gone."

After he was done, he disappeared.

Pei Feng Knight gave a salutation. "Thank you, teacher."
