RNP Chapter 257: Time and Space Exile, Backhand
Chapter 257: Time and Space Exile, Backhand
Above the Rock Abyss, in the air parallel to the Sky Island, Ye Li was very close to the Maintainer. The golden sword pierced through the Maintainer's chest, but no blood flowed out, only faint silver particles fell.
"As expected of you, the Sustainer of Heaven's Law. You have enough to be proud of yourself for being able to push my power to this point."
After the business exchange between the two sides ended, Ye Li loosened his hand holding the hilt of the sword, and his body slowly fell due to gravity.
A golden circular formation appeared, compressing the terrifying force into the sky within a hundred meters.
The golden light illuminated the sky, and the Maintainer turned into particles of light with a look of relief and disappeared. However, a piece of proud words entered the ears of Ye Li who was falling.
"I will not disappear, my power is just gone. What you are about to face is an endless scouring of time and space. Outsider, please accept my last gift! Hahahaha!!!"
The hearty laughter of the Maintainer echoed in his ears, and Ye Li's slightly pale face quickly returned to normal. The only half of the elemental power and immortal power remaining in his body began to resist the sudden violent pulling feeling around his body, and he had no intention of dealing with the wind pressure caused by the fall.
After Morax and others ended the battle, they immediately flew to the place where Ye Li was falling rapidly from top to bottom. Before Ye Li fell to a hundred meters above the ground, he was successfully caught by Buyer who raised his hand and a huge piece of cotton rose from the ground, offsetting the impact force.
Seeing Ye Li's face becoming ugly, Gui Zhong came to Ye Li first and helped him up. A worried look appeared on his anxious face, and his voice trembled slightly as he said:
"Xiao Li, what did that Maintainer do to you? Why did your whole body become transparent?"
"Mom, let me go first, or you will be affected too."
Ye Li looked solemn as he compressed the gradually appearing pulling feeling around his body into his body to avoid being affected by Gui Zhong. However, the price he paid was that his own elemental power was consumed faster.
"Xiao Li, what nonsense are you talking about? There must be a way to cure your current condition, right, Buyer?"
Gui Zhong tightly grasped Ye Li, who was trying to break free from his hand, and looked hopefully at Buyer, who was also looking at the scene in panic, as if he was eager for some answer.
Buyer shook his head, his emerald eyes staring directly at the white square that appeared between Ye Li's eyebrows, and said solemnly:
"The Maintainer's methods are too strange and unpredictable. Even though we found out many of their hidden cards last time, there are still some powers that are beyond our reach. Even if we can observe and study them, Ye Li doesn't have much time left in his current state."
She and Guizhong only knew part of the methods and abilities of the Heavenly Law Maintainer, and they currently had no way to specifically crack this technique that could make the form of existence become transparent or even make the breath disappear.
Because that is a power they have never really come into contact with.
Without research and analysis, the time it would take to crack an unknown problem from scratch is immeasurable.
"Damn it, the power in Xiaoli's body cannot be stripped away. That power is rapidly counteracting and separating my elemental power."
Ye Li looked at his mother who was trying to get rid of the pulling feeling on him, and gently pushed Gui Zhong's hand away with a slightly helpless expression. However, the other party's grip was too tight, so he could only cast an anxious look at his father Morax.
Morax looked solemn, and his perception of the surroundings was maximized at the current level. He could clearly feel the hidden changes and resistance within Ye Li's body and even within the surrounding space and time.
Reaching out to pull Guizhong back, Morax grabbed the other person who wanted to struggle, and stared at Guizhong's gray-blue eyes, as if he wanted to tell him his answer in this way.
Gui Zhong watched her cub gradually become transparent, and she panicked and struggled to break free from Morax's hand. But when she saw Morax's firm and resolute eyes, she naturally understood what Morax wanted to express.
"Buyer, Dad, Mom, Uncle Ruotu, you don't have to worry about me. I know my situation best. I should be in a superposition state where space and time collide with each other. It won't be long before I will be wrapped up in the turbulence of time and space and enter the crack of time and space. If I don't have special means, it will be very difficult to come back from the turbulence of time and space."
"The superposition state of time and space is an apt name. If what the Maintainer said before is true, she originally just wanted to seal you permanently in a certain space node so that you could not leave. Unfortunately, due to your powerful strength, she had no choice but to use this method to exile you."
Morax quickly sorted out his logic and directly pointed out the wrong answer that Ye Li was not in danger of life. He told a little lie and successfully made the two most nervous women next to him breathe a sigh of relief.
Looking at Ye Li secretly, Morax sighed helplessly and said:
"Li, how much time do you have left? Say everything you need to say now so we can prepare."
"I have already prepared a backup plan. You can go and check with the clones. I didn't expect the Maintainer to be so desperate. He actually took advantage of the moment when I used the power of time to target me and caused the current situation. But I still have some words to say before we part."
Ye Li looked helplessly at the white light particles gradually scattering from the transparent body. The elemental force in his body was being separated by the space-time turbulence compressed in his body at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually spread throughout his body.
Guizhong's expression was very ugly. Even though Morax repeatedly assured her that there was no danger to her life in her current condition, her instinctive uneasiness still made her unable to calm down.
"Mom, don't stare at me with such an ugly expression. Just smile like before. Besides, don't you have my clone with you? When I come back, I'll bring you some research materials on time-space turbulence. Maybe you can make a small room where one day equals one month."
Hearing Ye Li's comforting tone, Gui Zhong forced a smile on his ugly face, but in his heart he felt a little regretful that he was stupid enough to let Ye Li fight with the upholder of justice.
If she also had the ability to go back in time, she would not have let Ye Li be in his current situation.
Gui Zhong was pulled aside by Morax to be comforted with a lonely look. Ye Li was relieved, but Buyer, who was staring at him seriously, said lightly:
"You and your son lied to her like this, aren't you afraid that she will scold you?"
"You should also know that her intelligence is not inferior to yours. From the moment Dad started to lie, you both realized it. Otherwise, you wouldn't have relaxed in such a coordinated manner."
"As expected of you, you have caught even these details. But how are you going to deal with the space-time turbulence? That kind of place sounds like a mess."
"You don't need to worry about that. I have more backup plans than you think. I have anticipated all the possibilities after the battle. The current situation is only the worst part of my expectations."
Speaking in a nonchalant tone, Ye Li turned his head to look at the setting sun that was gradually setting in the sky. His mirror-like body gradually floated across the sky along with the white light particles, and his last words entered Buyer's heart.
"Besides, the reason why I can come back is because of you. After all, the inner world that you and I opened up together is not in the timeline of Teyvat, and the effect it has is something that even the maintainer could not have imagined."
