Told You I Can Turn Back Time

Chapter 439: Chapter 354: The End is Imminent

At the same time, just as Lin Xing was making his move, the Sword Maiden remained still in her original place, as if she had turned to stone.

But she wasn’t truly frozen, rather her mind was engulfed in a storm of intense thought.

In fact, before Lin Xing’s arrival, the Sword Maiden, due to a series of experiences, had fallen into a frenzy beyond redemption, simply resorting to combat to alleviate her own torment.

But the moment Lin Xing took center stage, an unprecedented pressure bore down upon the Sword Maiden, making every single thought and consciousness in her mind feel an extreme threat.

Under this supreme threat, all of her conscious thoughts coincidentally converged upon the same idea at that instant.

"How to contend with Lin Xing?"

To counter Lin Xing at this moment was clearly an exceedingly difficult task.

Yet, it was precisely because of its difficulty that it prevented all of the Sword Maiden’s consciousness from easily drawing a conclusion after falling into thought.

Thus, during such contemplation, as Bai Hai Liu’s daughter, the disciple of Taiching, the sister of Xingxiao... all pondered at the same time how to battle with Lin Xing, she felt a sense of calm.

All of her consciousness and thoughts, in that instant, were free of any distractions, wholeheartedly focusing on the same matter.

"How to battle Lin Xing?"

It was at this moment, when all the Sword Maiden’s thoughts achieved a balance, that a figure accompanied by a blaze of Buddhist light appeared before her, "Sword Maiden, are you still lucid?"

Looking at the Great Bright Buddha who had materialized before her, the Sword Maiden didn’t respond. She could feel that the moment her focus wavered, if she wasn’t wholeheartedly contemplating how to defeat Lin Xing, she would once again fall into the chaotic madness of conflicting consciousness.

Although the Great Bright Buddha was unclear about the Sword Maiden’s current state of mind, the fact that she didn’t attack him on sight was, in his opinion, already very rational.

So he spoke, "I’m here to provide you with some information related to Lin Xing."

Amidst the radiant Buddhist glow, the images of Lin Xing taking action against Sky Dragon, Gu She Fairy, and Yun Hezi all unfolded before the Sword Maiden.

It turned out that as Lin Xing had made his move, the modern military had already witnessed the entire process through various observational means.

The Great Bright Buddha too had watched Lin Xing’s action through the military’s network.

But just by watching, the Great Bright Buddha felt a deep sense of despair.

For he realized that he simply... didn’t understand.

As a top contender in the world, an extraordinary genius who aspired to carve a new path and create a world where the strong were no longer mad, he found himself unable to comprehend what Lin Xing had actually done.

This instilled in him an intense fear, a fear of losing grip over the present situation.

"Provide some information to the Sword Maiden..." The Great Bright Buddha looked at her, closely scrutinizing the battle scenes, and thought to himself, "I hope she can extract more information in the process of battling with Lin Xing."

"What exactly has Lin Xing become?"

...

"Have you figured it out?"

"What exactly did Lin Xing do?"

"What kind of power did he use?"

"Why is there only a head left of Sky Dragon all of a sudden?"

Inside the command room of White Eagle Country, the crowd bustled and panicked.

Because the Great Bright Buddha had not only delivered information about Lin Xing to the Sword Maiden but also to the major powers of the modern world, excluding Xia Country.

Although the world’s major powers had no intention of making an enemy of Lin Xing, they naturally would not let pass any opportunity to collect information and analyze a powerful being who caused numerous phenomena.

In fact, since the battle from beyond began, the major powers have been trying their utmost to collect intelligence on both sides of the conflict.

It was only after the battle concluded, because Lin Xing’s arrival and the location of his intervention were in Xia Country, that they lacked many observational methods and had to stop.

At this moment, countless people were staring at the screens displaying various detection data of Lin Xing’s combat, along with various images captured by satellites, drones, and surveillance cameras.

One such image showed Sky Dragon, in high-speed movement, suddenly vanishing and almost simultaneously reappearing hundreds of meters away in a parking lot embedded in a huge crater, as if it were struck by a meteorite.

And this meteorite crater also appeared suddenly, defying all reason.

As he struggled to rise, his entire form once again disappeared from sight.

Then the camera angle in the footage changed drastically, finally locating Sky Dragon’s head kilometers away, behind which lay a kilometer-long corridor reduced to ruins.

Amid the corridor were remains of flesh, viscera, and bones.

It was as if someone’s body had been dragged along the earth for several kilometers, smearing flesh and blood everywhere.

"What exactly happened?"

"Is it speed? Did Lin Xing’s speed become so fast that all existing surveillance equipment is rendered ineffective?"

"Impossible! Unless he’s faster than light!"

And no matter how hard the military personnels of various countries brainstormed, analyzed, or pondered, they could not explain many of the phenomena.

At this moment, they felt like primitive people armed with bows and spears facing a mechanized force, simply incapable of understanding Lin Xing’s current combat methods.

It was not just them who felt this way; many experts invited by the White Eagle Country to provide counsel were also watching Lin Xing’s battle footage through remote communication methods at the moment.

These powerhouses from the Mirror World had been lying low since Lin Xing initiated the battle beyond the heavens but still maintained contact with various nations in the present world.

Elder Ma Hong from the Zhou Tian Sect murmured, "Lin Xing... After experiencing the battle beyond the heavens, the methods he has employed have far exceeded our understanding; to kill three top powers in an instant is simply unimaginable."

"He may have truly reached the realm of invincibility by now."

In another screen, Fan Mingxiu from the new government of the Mirror World said with a grim face, "Even observation is impossible; how can there be any talk of opposing him?"

"Three of the top-tier third legacy powerhouses couldn’t even manage to fight back in front of him."

"The whole world... no, from this moment forward, all the experts from both worlds have been trampled under his feet, and he has truly become number one under the heavens."

Another screen showed the Great Bright Buddha, speaking with a face of compassionate sorrow, "My friends, there’s an even more pressing matter at hand."

"I’ve already warned you all that the strong, as a driving force, often recklessly vent their emotions to achieve what’s known as an evil spirit union."

"And to what insane lengths might Lin Xing go to push his combat power to this level now?"

"During the battle beyond the heavens, he was already releasing power unscrupulously, causing various natural disasters."

"And now, perhaps the entire world will become his plaything."

Fan Mingxiu frowned and said, "In 25 days, it will be the great transformation of heaven and earth. If we just wait for many predecessors to break through to the fourth legacy..."

The Great Bright Buddha sighed, "But I’m afraid before the great transformation of heaven and earth, the people of both worlds will have already been tossed into complete devastation by Lin Xing."

Hearing this, and recalling the various disasters caused by the battle beyond the heavens, and the madness demonstrated by the Sword Fairy earlier, everyone present turned pale as if they could already see Lin Xing holding the entire world in his hands, kneading it at will.

At this moment, everyone felt a tingle on their scalps.

Is the end of the world... coming?

What exactly would Lin Xing, who had become the strongest in the world, do?

...

On the battlefield.

The Sword Fairy, looking at the battle footage of Lin Xing in front of her, continued to fall into deep thought.

Each of her consciousnesses, each thought, each personality, was frantically thinking in the face of Lin Xing’s threat, contemplating the nature of Lin Xing’s abilities, thinking about how to counter him.

The Great Bright Buddha, looking at this scene, said thoughtfully, "Sword Fairy, in what follows, you don’t need to fight him with all your might, you just need to stall for time..."

But before the Great Bright Buddha could finish his words, his body explosively shattered.

A palm gently passed through his chest, crushing a smartphone with a bang.

Looking at the slowly fading figure of the Great Bright Buddha after the smartphone was destroyed, Lin Xing said indifferently, "Don’t run off; I’ll come for you after I’ve killed the Sword Fairy."

The Great Bright Buddha looked at Lin Xing and eventually dissipated into the air.

Lin Xing then turned his head to the Sword Fairy and asked, "Have you thought of your last words?"

The Sword Fairy stared at Lin Xing in front of her, barely opening her mouth, as several voices seemed to simultaneously come out from within her, as if several women were speaking in unison,

"Lin Xing! I will not die at your hands! I have so much more to do; I will not perish here!"

At this moment, Bai Yiyi, the Sword Fairy, a girl, a young girl... a series of figures emerged behind the Sword Fairy, all filled with a fighting spirit and determination as they looked towards Lin Xing.

"I want to find my parents!"

"I want to find Taiching to avenge my grievances..."

"I want to bring my brother back..."

"I want to bring my parents back to life!"

The various desires ultimately blended into one - to survive in front of Lin Xing! Only by surviving could she fulfill those many wishes.

"To have regained some sanity from that extreme madness, Sword Fairy, you truly have exceptional talent."

Lin Xing looked into the Sword Fairy’s eyes, which seemed to have countless lights flickering, "If I spare your life today, you will surely become a great calamity in the world after the great transformation of heaven and earth."

"It’s a pity for such talent."

As he spoke, a streak of blood light was gently flicked from Lin Xing’s fingertip, which turned into a vague human form mid-air and then instantly became another Lin Xing made of flesh and blood, standing in front of the Sword Fairy.

"You should be able to feel the gap between us now, right?"

"If I make a move, your death is certain."

"As a martial artist who has stepped into the peak, you want to see how far you can go under my pressure, don’t you?"

The next moment, the newly created body was already standing face to face with the Sword Fairy.

The flesh said, "Then go all out and fight this body of mine."

"I will record the process of your breakthrough and pass it on to posterity for learning, so as not to waste your natural talents and endowments."

"And when you reach your limits and can no longer break through, I will personally make a move to annihilate you."

"What do you say?"
