Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 395

Chapter 395: Ten Seconds of Energy (Update)

The leader finally waited for this opportunity and unleashed his devouring ability, seemingly glimpsing the dawn of victory.

Everything from food and clothing to shelter and transportation is a form of cultivation. Since Jiang Li reached the Mahayana stage, he has been constantly cultivating, constantly growing stronger.

But now, Jiang Li has stopped growing stronger.

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

Seconds ticked by, and Jiang Li was shocked to discover that after being struck by the leader’s devouring ability, his growth had stopped!

For a full ten seconds, he hadn’t grown stronger!

Jiang Li was simply stunned, while the leader was horrified.

In the past, using his supernatural powers to absorb others’ energy and abilities was like sticking a straw into a glass of water—a gentle sip and it was all gone. But for him, absorbing Jiang Li’s energy was like

sticking a straw into concrete; the oxygen deprivation he inhaled was nothing more than a few grains of dust scattered on the concrete.

Even more terrifying was that others’ energy was only the size of a glass, while Jiang Li’s energy was bottomless, deeper than the ocean.

After recovering from the leader’s split personality, he suffered from the aftereffects of depression, thalassophobia, and a host of other mental illnesses.

He nearly suffered a thalassophobia as he devoured Jiang Li!

The leader’s absorption of Jiang Li’s energy created a strange equilibrium—Jiang Li grew stronger, while the leader absorbed the portion that had grown stronger, preventing him from growing any stronger.

The leader couldn’t completely devour Jiang Li. Ten seconds passed, and he reached his limit and stopped.

He rejoiced. Those ten seconds of energy were enough to elevate all his abilities by another level, to level seven!

But the leader soon realized he had been too greedy; he couldn’t absorb even ten seconds of energy!

His body flushed and swelled, a chaotic, brutal force pounding at him. He tried to use all his healing powers to repair himself, but even that didn’t work. It felt like an ordinary person being run over by a truck, resurrected, then run over again, with no end in sight.

A massive burst of energy erupted from the leader’s mouth.

He had intended to use this energy to attack Jiang Li, but it burst forth from his body, leaving him unable to control himself. He could only tilt his head back and open his mouth. A

beam of azure, lifelike light erupted, shooting into the starry sky.

It was still daytime, but the azure beam shone brighter than the sun.

Just as the sun’s light obscured the stars, so too did this energy obscure the sun, rendering it utterly dim.

The entire Weigu Continent was captivated by this bizarre spectacle, with countless people looking up in awe, taking photos, and countless astronomers wishing they could poke their eyes out to ignore this unnatural phenomenon.

This phenomenon would revolutionize the entire field of astronomy!

In the past, upon learning of someone publicly displaying supernatural powers, the Director-General’s first instinct would have been to conceal the news. But now, his first reaction was to yell, “Fuck you!”

He didn’t even have to think about hiding the news.

Firstly, the phenomenon was so outrageous that anyone with eyes could see it, making concealment pointless.

Secondly, even if he claimed it was caused by supernatural powers, the public wouldn’t believe it.

“Is the leader so powerful?!” The Director-General shuddered. He saw the leader emitting the beam and assumed it was his hidden power.

Even more terrifying was yet to come. After breaking through the atmosphere, the blue beam showed no sign of attenuation, exploding upon contact with any passing star.

Astronomers all wanted to bang their heads and forget about this scene.

How to explain this! Linear black hole?

The most unlucky one was a graduate student, whose graduation thesis was about the orbit of a certain planet.

He painstakingly collected data, observed the night sky, and was busy for more than a year. Finally, the defense was about to begin.

Now the planet is gone.

The leader poured out all his energy for ten seconds, and the blue light beam changed from a straight line to a line segment, continuing to move in the original direction.

It happened that the Wei Gu continent was next to the boundary wall. The blue light beam did not fly for long before it collided with the boundary wall, breaking the boundary wall. It held firm in the void storm for a while before dissipating.

This scene was observed by astronomers. It was the first time that the boundary of the universe was observed in the Wei Gu world, which was of great significance.

However, this scene contradicted the existing theory. Astronomers scratched their heads and conceived new theories.

Bai Hongtu felt that he had to reformulate his plan to defeat Jiang Li.

Even mastering telepathy would be useless against this outrageous attack. “Could it be that I can’t even break Jiang Li’s defense?”

The leader’s eyes, seeing Jiang Li, were devoid of fighting spirit, only filled with deep fear.

What kind of person possessed such immense power?

Even if the power just now was only a tenth of his, it was terrifying enough.

“Monster, monster…” The leader shuddered at the sight of Jiang Li.

He finally understood: he had just been playing a trick on the director-general, and this Jiang Li was also playing a trick on him.

There was only one way to deal with such a person.

“Exile to the Other Dimension!”

The leader used this power for the first time since acquiring it, and he had no idea how effective it would be.

Jiang Li felt everything around him slow down, and he immediately understood what was happening.

Someone was using the Way of Time to enter the River of Time.

Exile to the Other Dimension wasn’t a spatial power, but a temporal one.

“But where’s the entrance?” Jiang Li released his spiritual sense, searching everywhere. If he could enter the River of Time, he would definitely have to go through it.

Finally, he found a small opening nearby, the size of a pinhole.

The leader didn’t know how to use this ability, nor could he see the process of opening the entrance to the River of Time. He simply released as much energy as possible, causing Jiang Li to disappear.

He poured all his energy into expanding the small opening to the size of a fist.

If he were absorbing an ordinary person, the leader could easily use this ability to create a huge opening, a suction force that could pull anyone in, but this time he absorbed Jiang Li.

“This opening is a little small,” Jiang Li said, feeling embarrassed. He tentatively stretched out a hand and widened the opening.

“You can really open it.” Jiang Li was delighted. He exerted force with both hands, opened the gap to a height of one person, and walked in.

Jiang Li entered the River of Time, and the gap healed.

“Hahaha!” The leader laughed. What if he was powerful? He was still banished to another dimension. Without his consent, he could never come out again.

When the leader used his superpowers, only Jiang Li retained consciousness. No one else saw what Jiang Li did. They only knew that the leader activated his superpowers and Jiang Li disappeared.

“Damn, that was the Way of Time!” Although Bai Hongtu did not see the whole process, he had seen the people of the Great Zhou royal family use the Way of Time many times. This feeling was too familiar to him.

“Jiang Li, you bastard, why don’t you take me with you on such a fun thing!”

Jiang Li had been to the River of Time once, but Bai Hongtu had never been there.

Bai Hongtu was furious and asked the leader to activate his superpowers and banish him to another dimension.

“Want to rescue him? Don’t dream! I just locked him up at the cost of all my energy and the inability to use my ability to exile him to another dimension. No one will ever be able to open another dimension again!”

The leader laughed loudly towards the sky and died.

In order to exile Jiang Li, he not only consumed all his energy, but also exhausted his life force.
