Chapter 533: Reversal of Time, The Chance to Turn the Tables
The Five Elements Divine Wheel hovered above Ye Tian, blocking the sixtieth lightning calamity.
With a thunderous crash, the Five Elements Divine Wheel was blown away by the sixtieth lightning calamity, numerous cracks appearing on it before it shattered into countless pieces.
The strength of the sixtieth lightning calamity somewhat exceeded Ye Tian’s expectations, and he had overestimated the defensive capabilities of the Five Elements Divine Wheel. However, this did not mean that the Five Elements Divine Wheel could no longer be deployed.
Unless the Great Divine Ability was damaged at its core, it could still be utilized in the short term.
Of course, the Five Elements Divine Wheel couldn’t be used indefinitely. Given the current situation, it could be deployed around twenty more times. After that, it would become difficult to continue using it as being shattered repeatedly would affect its core.
A new Five Elements Divine Wheel appeared, floating above Ye Tian’s head.
Soon, the sixty-first lightning calamity descended.
Unsurprisingly, Ye Tian’s Five Elements Divine Wheel was once again shattered, but he easily withstood the remnants of the lightning calamity.
With each successive lightning calamity, Ye Tian relied on the Five Elements Divine Wheel to forcefully endure.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian had surpassed eighty of the Tenth Calamity’s lightning calamities.Compared to the Tenth Calamity’s total of 512 lightning calamities, these eighty were merely an appetizer, hardly significant.
Even so, Ye Tian found it extremely challenging to endure just this appetizer.
At this point, many Princes were pessimistic about Ye Tian’s chances, believing he had no hope of overcoming the Tenth Calamity and was likely to fall beneath it.
Had Ye Tian not entered the Tenth Calamity Zone, he could have left the Supreme Mountain. However, once one enters the Tenth Calamity Zone, there’s no leaving halfway through, such are the rules of the Supreme Mountain.
At this time, the Human Race’s Eternal Princes were undoubtedly the most anxious.
Ye Tian’s importance to the Human Race was incomparable to that of any other Eternal Prince. Should Ye Tian return to the Human Race, they would gain immense benefits.
But should Ye Tian fall, all the opportunities he had gained would dissipate, resulting in a loss not just of an Eternal Prince but also of those inheritances for the Human Race.
“Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, you must overcome the Tenth Calamity!” Prince Bairen clenched his fist and thought to himself.
In the Tenth Calamity Zone.
Although Ye Tian was solemn, he did not panic.
“The Five Elements Divine Wheel has shattered too many times and can no longer be deployed. I’ll rely on the Heavenly Moon Saber to counter the lightning calamities and delay, enduring a few more.” Ye Tian planned.
Immediately, he deployed the Heavenly Moon Saber ultimate technique time and again to counter the lightning calamities.
The Heavenly Moon Saber ultimate technique, being the strongest among ordinary ultimate saber techniques, was naturally formidable enough to match the power of the lightning calamities.
Despite this, Ye Tian could not ensure he remained unharmed.
With each thunderous calamity, Ye Tian managed to split the lightning with the Heavenly Moon Saber, but he continued to sustain injuries, albeit managing to hold on for the time being.
After some time, Ye Tian had endured the 120th lightning calamity, but by then, he was severely injured.
However, Ye Tian had not yet activated his time talent to heal his wounds.
Seeing his dire state, Ye Tian immediately activated a 100x time acceleration, along with his Undying Talent, Healing Talent, and Life Talent, to treat his injuries.
Simultaneously, Ye Tian consumed some healing items to speed up his recovery.
Additionally, Ye Tian executed the first set of movements from the Eighteen Golden Bodies Techniques. He had discovered that this could accelerate the refinement of some energies, naturally including the healing items he had just consumed.
In an instant, Ye Tian’s injuries were somewhat healed.
Using such methods, Ye Tian forcefully withstood another ten lightning calamities.
Before long, Ye Tian’s injuries worsened again, and he could no longer continue.
Thus, he consumed a drop of million-year-old stone milk, obtained from slaying a Prince. The million-year-old stone milk could instantly heal injuries and was invaluable in such a situation. Boom! As the energy from the million-year-old stone milk entered Ye Tian’s body, it rapidly repaired his injuries. Coupled with his other healing talents, Ye Tian’s condition almost returned to its peak.
However, the million-year-old stone milk could only be effective once. Consuming more would be useless, serving merely as a life-saving measure.
Following this, Ye Tian relied on life-saving items acquired from other races’ Princes to overcome several more lightning calamities.
Below the Supreme Mountain.
Seeing Ye Tian use a life-saving item unique to the Immortal Race, the Immortal Princes realized it must have been plundered from a slain Immortal Prince.
As a result, the Immortal Princes were greatly irritated.
“Hmph, Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, you indeed surpass me in strength, but you’re still doomed. How many life-saving items can you have? And with so many lightning calamities still to come, you won’t overcome the Tenth Calamity!”
Prince Tianxuan sneered coldly.
The 150th, the 170th, the 210th lightning calamities! Ye Tian, relying on a plethora of life-saving and healing items, pushed his condition to the peak repeatedly. However, having consumed healing items excessively, Ye Tian had almost become immune to some, making it difficult to recover through them any longer.
Moreover, Ye Tian’s life-saving items were dwindling, signaling dire circumstances.
Finally, Ye Tian used up his last life-saving item, having only surpassed 320 of the 512 lightning calamities of the Tenth Calamity. The situation was extremely grim for Ye Tian.
“If only I could summon something as powerful as the Six Paths Reincarnation Pagoda, surpassing the Tenth Calamity would be simple!” Ye Tian thought to himself.
The defense of the Six Paths Reincarnation Pagoda was formidable, and the lightning calamities of the Tenth Calamity couldn’t shatter it. Since the calamities lacked intelligence and attacked blindly, Ye Tian could easily transcend the Tenth Calamity by hiding within the tower.
Clearly, the Supreme Mountain’s trial wouldn’t have such a glaring loophole. Otherwise, the major races of the universe would have long exploited precious defensive treasures to assist their princes in surpassing the Ten Calamities.
In reality, higher-tiered weapons and artifacts were unusable, with the Supreme Mountain’s power suppressing them, rendering them ineffective.
Thus, Ye Tian’s Six Paths Reincarnation Pagoda was unusable in the Supreme Mountain, as was the mysterious Black Lotus.
Nonetheless, Ye Tian remained composed, even in dire straits, maintaining his calm with a strong heart condition, especially since he was far from a hopeless situation.
Following this, Ye Tian resisted the lightning calamities with all his might, sustaining injuries with each one, their severity increasing and the rate of recovery lagging far behind the rate of injury.
Gradually, Ye Tian neared a deathly state.
At the 352nd lightning calamity, his body was almost entirely shattered. Had it not been for his Undying Talent, which kept him alive as long as there was a sliver of life force, his current state would have undoubtedly been fatal.
At this point, all princes believed Ye Tian had no hope left.
Even Prince Bairen of the Human Race sighed, no longer believing Ye Tian could transcend the Tenth Calamity.
However, at this moment, Ye Tian did something unforeseen by many.
“Reverse Time!”
Waves of time fluctuated, and Ye Tian’s flesh miraculously restored itself at an incredible speed.
In an instant, his condition returned to its peak, as if he had just begun the battle.
This was the effect of reversing time, returning the body to a previous state, while the Tenth Calamity Zone, having recognized Ye Tian enduring 352 lightning calamities, couldn’t be reversed.
“Time talent. The Prince of Ten Thousand Laws possesses time talent!” Prince Tianxuan’s face darkened.
Previously, he had only wished for Ye Tian’s death, forgetting about Ye Tian’s time talent.
Possessing a Pseudo-Mystic level time talent allowed for the reversal of time, even if only once in a short period, but it was enough for Ye Tian to endure more calamities.
“Hmph, the upcoming calamities are increasingly terrifying. You still have little hope!” Prince Tianxuan coldly stated.
Yet, a thought suddenly struck him – if Ye Tian truly surpassed the Tenth Calamity, it would spell significant trouble! After reversing time, Ye Tian faced the calamities anew in a refreshed state.
Five Elements Divine Wheel! Ten Thousand Layer Realm Barrier! Heavenly Moon Saber Ultimate Technique! Primordial Vines! Primordial Scales Armor!
Ye Tian deployed every possible method against the subsequent calamities, sparing no effort to block as many as possible.
Despite this, upon the arrival of the 423rd lightning calamity, Ye Tian’s body collapsed again.
At this critical moment, Ye Tian once again utilized his ability to reverse time.
A Mystic level time talent could perform time reversal two to three times in a short period, though each subsequent reversal incurs a backlash.
For instance, this time, Ye Tian suffered a backlash, losing 100 years of life instantly.
However, with a lifespan of over 100,000 years, losing 100 years was negligible, so he didn’t care.
Ye Tian’s second use of time reversal stunned Prince Tianxuan.
“How is this possible? He only has a Pseudo-Mystic level time talent. How could he perform a second time reversal? Only a Mystic level time talent could allow another reversal, at the cost of 100 years of life. Could it be…”
Prince Tianxuan suddenly considered a possibility – perhaps Ye Tian wasn’t merely a Pseudo-Mystic level time talent holder but a Mystic level one.
“Damn, I underestimated him! To think he also possesses a Mystic level time talent; it seems he was bluffing me last time!”
While Prince Tianxuan was annoyed, he also grew wary.
Ye Tian’s strength had already far surpassed his, and his only advantage was his Mystic level time talent. Now, even that advantage was gone.
