Chapter 632: Chapter 444: The Disappearing Panel, Space-Time Retrospection_2

His fingertips did not land on the debris of the Stars, but within the entire starry sky.

In the next instant, at the point where his fingertip touched the Void, a delicate, silver-gray ripple suddenly spread, layer upon layer.

This ripple did not expand outward but collapsed inward, gradually condensing.

Buzz–

The entire Star Sea, the Star Domain once ravaged by terrifying war flames, suddenly emitted a roar stemming from the Cosmic Law itself.

Time began to shift at the will of Chu Zheng, undergoing retrospection.

Ripples spread through the Void, and the shattered debris of the Stars began to restore, as if time was flowing backward, and they quickly returned to their original state.

Even debris scattered across countless light-years was drawn back, rolling back into place.

Those tiny fragments scattered millions of miles away, like a reverse meteor shower, traced arcs that defied the trajectory of Universal Laws, whistling as they returned to their homeland in the starry sky, the broken pieces of the Star Rings quickly restored as before.

The entire starry sky shook violently, the shattered Stars underwent a miracle-like restoration beneath the Star Dome.

The immortal power within him was depleting madly. Chu Zheng felt a slight tremor in his heart, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes. At the instant of exhibiting Space-Time Retrospection, he felt like the Creator who governed time and space, omnipotent!

A moment later, the starry sky had been restored as before, the Star River quietly flowed, the billions of Stars slowly operated along their ancient unchanging trajectories, emitting either gentle or blazing starlight.

The traces of the fierce battle that shattered the Boundary not long ago, the torn Void, and the broken Stars were all forcibly erased, as if that brutal confrontation was just a ripple quietly smoothed out in the river of time, never having happened.

Suddenly, a wisp of a living creature’s aura appeared in the starry sky, a vague figure materialized in the gradually complete starry sky!

The originally serene Space-time Law suddenly surged like waves. Chu Zheng’s face changed slightly; he knew what had happened.

The retrospection of time in this starry sky involved living creatures, triggering a riot in the Space-time Law, and continuing to reverse time would lead to unpredictable changes, affecting the future!

Boom!

The starry sky twisted abruptly, a phantom of the river of time surged forth from the supreme realm, the entire Star Dome groaned under the unbearable burden.

Amid the awe-inspiring tides raised by the Space-time Law, the newly repaired Star Tracks were like fragile spider webs, disappearing in an instant, billions of Stars shattered like fireflies crushed by an invisible giant hand, extinguished in an instant.

Chu Zheng’s expression froze slightly, his pupils reflected the endlessly collapsing and disintegrating Star River.

When he regained his senses, the entire starry sky, which had just been restored as before, had completely vanished.

Even the celestial light that previously poured from the numerous Stars was swept away by the waters of time, leaving no trace.

The infinite time and space erased the unstable factors that appeared here.

Chu Zheng staggered, his face somewhat pale. In that moment, he sensed an immense, irresistible pressure from the river of time, as if it was a warning.

Manipulating time was far beyond what he could currently achieve.

This river spanning past and future seemed to have a will of its own.

After a long while, amid the throbbing pain from his parched Dantian, Chu Zheng finally came back to his senses and began to repair the depletion of his body.

In just that brief moment, he was nearly drained.

As his body gradually returned to its original state, Chu Zheng calmed down, regaining his composure. Although he could not currently affect living creatures, it did not mean he wouldn’t be able to in the future.

This was just an attempt, enough to prove the terrifying nature of the Divine Skill of Space-Time Retrospection.

The Space-time Domain, revered by both realms as the supreme realm, indeed brimmed with numerous secrets.

At the end of the path of cultivation, the Mysterious Gate, which had been sealed for a long time, had been pushed open by a slit by him. Though he couldn’t see the complete scenery inside, the heavenly light leaking through the crack was enough to dazzle the mind.

For the true power of the Divine Skill of Space-Time Retrospection, what he saw now was just the tip of the iceberg.

Calming his breath, Chu Zheng glanced at the still unconscious Shan Ruiyuan, raised his hand to awaken her, and casually helped her remove the Evil Qi from her body.

Shan Ruiyuan blinked awake groggily, recalling what she had seen before losing consciousness, her expression instantly filled with vigilance.

In the next instant, feeling the renewed state within her body, she paused slightly, even forgetting to ask what Chu Zheng had meant just now, as a surge of joy welled up in her heart.

Could it be that she had adapted to the Evil Qi? Otherwise, how could there be such a change?

Before the delight could surface on her brows, the surrounding Evil Qi was once again attracted by her Immortal Body, continuously pouring into her body.

Waves of damp coldness brought her back to reality.

Clearly, it was Chu Zheng who had helped her remove the Evil Qi just now, and it had nothing to do with her.

“Thank you, Heavenly Judge.”

Shan Ruiyuan bowed, her eyes holding a complicated expression as she swallowed back many questions she had wanted to ask.

If Chu Zheng really intended to act against her, he wouldn’t bother with such an elaborate setup; he could simply kill her with a raise of his hand.

Knocking her unconscious was likely to help deal with the Evil Qi in her body and not wanting her to witness the process.

Indeed…this must be hiding a great secret, perhaps related to the rapid progress of Chu Zheng’s cultivation.

However, these were clearly beyond her reach, tied to the essence of Chu Zheng himself.

Some matters should not even be thought of, let alone asked; otherwise, they might invite disaster.

“You may leave now. I will be in closed cultivation for some time and do not wish to be disturbed.”

Chu Zheng waved his hand, signaling Shan Ruiyuan to leave.

The Space-time Domain now held tremendous allure for him. He was already eager to refine the Space-Time Marrow Crystal and advance into the Tenth Order Domain.

This was not a small undertaking like before. Breaking through such a large boundary barrier might produce unforeseen events, so he needed to dispel all unstable factors nearby, set up a great formation for protection, and then enter the Cave Heaven World for closed cultivation, striving to consolidate the Dao Seal in one go.

Retreat again?

Upon hearing this, a tremor ran through Shan Ruiyuan’s heart. Clearly, during this period of silent sitting at the Boundary, Chu Zheng had made substantial progress. Having recently become an Immortal King, he was now entering closed cultivation to break through his Cultivation again.

Suddenly, her thoughts paused, and she reacted, her eyes filling with shock.

Chu Zheng was now at Immortal King Perfection, if he advanced further…

Immortal Monarch?!

Shan Ruiyuan’s heart trembled fiercely, she took a sharp breath, suppressing the horror that surged within her heart, and said softly, “I take my leave, sir.”

“Go on, and do not come back. Staying too close to me is not good for you or the Shan Clan. I have said what I must.”

Chu Zheng waved his hand. He was in a very good mood at this moment, and he rarely offered an additional piece of advice, hoping Shan Ruiyuan and her clan would heed it.

At present, the weight Moonlight Immortal Ancestor placed on him could protect him for a while, but there would never be coexistence between him and the Immortal Path in the future.

As long as Heavenly Fate persists, the Dao War cannot cease. Everything in balance now would shatter once the Dao War begins.

Not only is he an Immortal Path Cultivator, but he is also a Qi Cultivator. The Heavenly Fate in his hands, besides death, he will not and cannot let it go.

Only in and not out, the final result will become enemies on all sides. At that time, his situation will mirror that of the Ancestral Dao in the late Primordial Era.

He and the Myriad Heavens and Realms, and the Immortal Alliance Martial Hall, will inevitably have a life-and-death decision one day.

“Thank you, Heavenly Judge, for the advice. I will not disturb you again.”

Shan Ruiyuan took a deep breath, glanced at Chu Zheng, and turned away.

She could hardly imagine the waves a less than five-hundred-year-old Immortal Monarch would stir in the entire Great Universe after Chu Zheng emerged from closed cultivation.

Chu Zheng walked leisurely through the starry sky. After spending half a year setting up layered formations near the Boundary, he finally entered the Cave Heaven World.

Over the past ten years, the time flow difference between the Cave Heaven World and the Great Universe had grown significantly, nearly threefold.

Here, he could have more time to slowly refine the Space-Time Marrow Crystal.
