Yang Xuan cursed inwardly. He even suspected that Helim had discovered his identity and was purposely toying with him.
Otherwise, how could he explain why it had come looking for him again and again?
A cold aura entered his body, and Yang Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
Not good!
He suddenly remembered something.
He'd already been 'killed' by Helim, but now he was strutting around here. It would be strange if Helim didn't find it strange.
With that thought, Yang Xuan calmed his mind and concealed all of his aura, leaving only the most basic ability to move as he rushed towards the back of the mountain.
Helim's aura was indeed strange, as if it didn't understand why Yang Xuan had come back from the dead.
Yang Xuan's heart trembled, but he couldn't think of a countermeasure in his haste. He could only allow Helim to continue probing.
Helim searched through Yang Xuan's body, but didn't seem to find the reason, so it gave up. It only released a strand of Death Intent, directly wiping out Yang Xuan's life force.
This strand of Death Intent was enormous to others, but to Yang Xuan, it was insignificant.
Yang Xuan let out a sigh of relief.
It seemed that Helim hadn't discovered his true identity, or it wouldn't have released such a small amount of Death Aura.
As the deathly Qi entered his body, Yang Xuan did not even make a sound as he collapsed into the snow, smashing a large hole in the already hard snow.
All of his aura was concealed, and Yang Xuan withdrew all of his life force.
But all of his preparations were for naught, because after Helim released the strand of Death Intent, it didn't stop to investigate. Instead, it left Yang Xuan's body and rushed towards the forbidden area of the back mountain of the Fairy Palace.
When it was far away, Yang Xuan let out a sigh of relief and crawled up from the ground, silently following behind Helim.
Helim's aura didn't linger. After entering the mountain, it once again went underground, arriving outside of the purple light.
Yang Xuan maintained a certain distance from it, hiding in the distance.
This time, Helim didn't try to touch the purple light. Instead, she kept wandering outside as if she was thinking about something.
Yang Xuan, who was hiding in the distance, gradually lost his patience.
He didn't know how long Helim would stay this time, but he didn't have time to wait.
Now that he had mastered the Countercurrent technique, he already had a rough idea of how to control the time rule and time power.
As long as he was given a certain amount of time and opportunity, he would be able to absorb it completely.
At that time, he would be able to create an independent space in the river of time and completely absorb Helim's power.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Xuan suppressed the anxiety in his heart and waited patiently.
But this wait lasted for ten days.
During these ten days, Helim had no intention of leaving. She continued to linger outside the purple light.
Moreover, Yang Xuan noticed that as she paced back and forth, Helim had actually begun to split out strands of tentacles in an attempt to touch the purple light again.
In the beginning, as soon as Helim's tentacles came into contact with the purple light, they would dissolve and disappear, leaving no trace behind.
But as time passed, she was actually able to make her tentacles stay in the purple light for a short period of time, and for longer and longer periods of time.
Yang Xuan knew that things weren't looking good. It seemed that Helim had already thought of a way. If this continued, he might actually be able to beat her to it.
This was something that Yang Xuan definitely couldn't allow to happen.
At this thought, Yang Xuan's eyes shone with a cold light.
The Helim's will here now wasn't very strong. He could just let the power destroy it.
But this way, Helim's main body would immediately discover his existence.
He needed to make use of the time difference.
If he quickly destroyed Helim's will here, then immediately began to absorb the time power, he might be able to complete the task before Helim's main body arrived.
But this was too risky.
If he couldn't finish absorbing the time power before Helim's main body arrived, then what awaited him would be an extremely terrifying outcome.
What to do?
For the first time, Yang Xuan began to hesitate.
But after a short while, he made up his mind.
It was better to seek death than to wait for it. Since he was going to die either way, he might as well take the risk.
At this thought, Yang Xuan began to slowly approach, preparing to find the right time.
Helim's will was still lingering, once again trying to break through that imposing power.
Now was the time!
Yang Xuan made up his mind, and suddenly attacked.
In an instant, the entire underground world turned into a sea of lightning, a massive tearing force like the universe's starry skies biting at Helim's will like a giant python.
Helim's reaction couldn't be described as slow. She instantly turned to face him, her hand of will turning into an endless starry sky.
But what was left here was only a sliver of Helim's will. How could it deal with Yang Xuan's opponent, who had suddenly revealed his power for a sneak attack? It was instantly struck by Yang Xuan's divine lightning and turned into nothingness.
At the same time, an earth-shattering roar came from the void: Yang Xuan!
With one successful attack, Yang Xuan didn't want to waste even half a second. He immediately used the most basic Countercurrent technique.
As if summoned by something, the purple brilliance began to boil like boiling water, extending its light towards Yang Xuan.
The time power began to spread, and Yang Xuan was overjoyed.
Just half a minute more, and he would be able to completely make the time power accept him, and enter his body.
But this was destined to be wishful thinking.
After her will clone was destroyed, how could Helim give him time? The vibration from behind stabbed at him like a sharp blade.
Yang Xuan had no choice but to twist his body, narrowly avoiding it.
Fifteen seconds. Only fifteen seconds.
In a thousandth of a hair, the giant white eye turned into a human form identical to Yang Xuan, its eyes burning with fury.
Ten seconds!
Only ten seconds.
"Yang Xuan!" Helim called out Yang Xuan's name through gritted teeth, and the space behind her began to shatter, revealing the five-coloured void.
Five seconds!
Five more seconds, and Yang Xuan would be able to complete his task, completely assimilate the purple light into his body, and use the power of time and space.
* Rip! *
The stars began to tear apart, and the entire Fairy Peak, and even the entire planet, began to tremble. It looked like it was about to be destroyed in the void.
In the final second, Yang Xuan roared and charged towards the purple light. Success was at hand.
But just as he was about to enter the purple light, Helim suddenly appeared beside him. With a single hand, she pulled him to a standstill outside the light.
"Yang Xuan, I want you dead!" Helim roared, and all things in the starry sky appeared on the arm she had manifested. The terrifying destructive power began to drown Yang Xuan's body like a giant wave.
* Rip! *
Yang Xuan's body was torn apart, revealing eerie white bones, and blood splattering everywhere.
Yang Xuan groaned in pain. He looked at the power of time in front of him, but he couldn't get close enough to absorb it. His face was full of despair and savagery.
"If that's the case, then let's die together!" He roared loudly, and the Countercurrent Technique began to circulate in reverse. He turned around and suddenly hugged Helim in his arms.
Helim was momentarily dazed, because she had no idea what Yang Xuan was going to do.
It was precisely because of this brief moment of distraction that she fell into eternal damnation.
At the next moment, the purple light stirred up great waves, as if it had turned into a huge beast that was roaring furiously. It opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the two people who were hugging each other in one gulp, not leaving behind a single trace.
Then, the purple light abruptly disappeared, leaving behind a vast, pitch-black underground space.
