Maelstrom of Time

"...Useless."

'Time Spectral.'

Klun's figure erupts with time fragments, formless, and invisible to the naked eyes yet it gives off an overwhelming pressure.

Before a sea of red and golden light blades could submerge Klun, its figure suddenly transformed into an illusion.

Time and space were twisting as all of the attacks went right through Klun, not hitting it!

It was as if it did not exist in the present time and space.

The whole room began to shake as Tang Wulin attack crashed into the wall behind Klun, leaving behind countless dent and scars.

Yet Tang Wulin didn't seem surprised, he simply tilted his head as if he was in thought. While Klun began clenching its fist.

"You're no longer in the First-Class Realm... If I have to say, in terms of general strength, you are equal to an 8th ring god or Half-Step God King."

Tang Wulin casually said, causing Klun to let out a chuckle as time fragments began to shine around its body.

"I agree with that assessment, similar to you... My Overall strength has taken that step past the 4-dimensional... but still below the 5th-Dimensional."

Stars were swirling inside of Klun eyes as the time fragments grew even more around it. It was as if a cosmos was being formed around Klun, which was causing the natural laws to tremble.

"In all honesty... We wanted to convert you into one of our soldiers... But it seems you are too monstrous to keep alive."

"Kept me alive? Is it because of Typhoon?"

Klun figure froze at Tang Wulin words, eyes staring at Tang Wulin in disbelief as if it wasn't expecting Tang Wulin previous words.

"Surprise? Unlike you, I haven't lost to it yet."

"...So do you know about it... Meaning you gain some of our memories... Since you did, you must also understand how futile things will be?"

Klun asked Tang Wulin while its fist clenched, and figures trembled. As the memories of Typhoon suppressing them rang through in their mind, how easy they were suppressed and forced to work for it.

Desiring nothing more than to slaughter that creature but knowing it was futile. As Typhoon was too powerful for it and maybe anything in this universe.

Even with their limitless numbers that stretched across the past, present, and future. It all meant nothing to Typhoon who resides in a higher dimension.

Able to easily change the past, present, and future with a flick of its hand while controlling all possibilities.

'Still, something doesn't feel right.'

Just as Klun thought, utilizing its newfound temporal powers. It narrowed its eyes, time fragments, and space elements releasing a brilliant light.

It began peering through time, trying to see Tang Wulin past.

Yet nothing came to it, both a wisp and even a fragment. Klun tried to see if it could see Tang Wulin's future but the same thing happened, it couldn't see anything.

As if Tang Wulin had no past or future, not existing in the past and future.

An anomaly in the universe, such a thought both terrified and thrilled Klun as it stared at Tang Wulin with a complicated look.

"For you guys sure, but for me? Well, we will see."

Tang Wulin said not caring that Klun tried to see its future, something he knew wouldn't work in the first place.

Or it trying to freeze him in time, while they were talking with each other.

As the whole area was frozen in time, except for Tang Wulin who was resistant to all powers and had a higher grasp of temporal powers.

So he really didn't need to do anything, even with the time fragments trying to freeze him.

Yet he still decided to strike out with his full power, as his instincts and senses guided him on the easiest path.

Trishula appeared in his hand, giving off a terrifying and horrifying pressure as it began to connect with Tang Wulin.

He could finally draw even more power from it, almost able to unleash its full power. Especially with him attaining Immortal Qi which was needed to utilize an Ultra Divine Full power.

In the next instant, Tang Wulin hacked out with Trishula!

Its destruction intent was vast and powerful, rushing out like a gigantic tidal wave. This was especially when giant streaks of destruction rushed out one after another, shattering space, producing a terrifying rain of light.

If that wasn't bad enough, the giant streaks started to grow as Tang Wulin applied his time and spear technique on it.

Creating an expanse of destruction that wished to submerge the whole area in destruction and lightning.

But as the expanse of destruction reached Klun, wishing to submerge it. Klun only scuffed, its fist erupting in a terrifying pale light that was swirling around it while hundreds of thousands of portals appeared around it.

Kuns's fist smashed out, while other fists also blasted out of the portal smashing into the expanse of destruction.

Their attack clashed and struck each other until the area shook intensely, energy rippling everywhere and breaking it apart.

Before scattering away, yet Tang Wulin unleashed another attack. Trishula began to move in circles, forming golden hoops that were crackling with destruction and creation.

Six hoops were formed before they rushed towards Klun while a gigantic portal opened above it. The portal was surging with time; It was extremely vast and boundless.

As the hoops came close to Klun, the portal erupted out with millions of millions of time fragments like a river of water.

The waves of the time bellowed forth, sweeping out and crashing into the six hoops.

The whole area shooked!

As the hoops began clashing with the waves of time. Yet the clash only lasted for a bit, as the hoops have been devouring the waves of time while pushing them closer to Klun.

This caused Klun to frown as it didn't think those hoops could have such an effect even against such an immense amount of time fragments.

But it was then it heard a deafening noise, Tang Wulin figure appearing behind it as Trishula cleaved through the air.

Trailing behind it was millions and millions of streaks of lightning, that was illuminating the whole area with its thunder radiance.

The crackling of the streaks was ear-splitting, as it carried a terrifying aura. Klun didn't need to look to tell that every single streak contained terrifying destructive power.

'Time Spectral.'

Time and space began twisting as Klun's figure started to turn illusionary. But Klun still felt a sense of danger that made it unsure of its safety.

'Ninth-Soul Skill: Ultimas Transcendence.'

The millions and millions of streaks of lightning swiftly began turning into scarlet-colored vines. All this made it no different than bolts of lightning as it smashed into Klun.

In the next moment, the whole area shooked as the frozen time was shattered!

The area was rumbling, producing cracks as streaks of lightning began interweaving through the whole area.

While the sound of space shattering rang out with pieces of it falling to the ground.

Yet Tang Wulin was the only one in his area, Trishula creating a scorched crater in the ground. But then he pulled back Trishula, as countless vortexes began appearing around him, numbers passing the millions.

They fiercely spun about, time fragments and spatial fluctuations hacking out, rushing out in waves of millions.

But Tang Wulin swiftly countered this as Trishula erupted out with Creation Energy, creating two sets of golden hoops.

His father's technique, Disorderly Storm began to devour and suppress the space-time fragments that were appearing all around.

While he glances down from where he was, seeing Klun who was missing an arm. Although it was gradually restoring its arm with its temporal powers and regeneration.

Yet Klun was giving Tang Wulin a murderous look, as it understands that Tang Wulin was able to hit it, something that should be impossible.

But he did it, hacking off Klun's right arm. Meaning that Tang Wulin was somehow able to hit it even when it moves its body to a different time.

Since Klun couldn't see Tang Wulin fate, it wasn't possible to know that Tang Wulin ninth-soul skill Ultimas Transcendence.

Was a skill that had him wrap his Blue Silver Genesis into Creation and Annihilation with Destruction energy. Creating a deadly array of vines that pierces through anywhere in heaven and earth, even if someone was to escape to another time.

The vines will chase and strike them down, turning everything it touched into nothingness.

Tang Wulin wings flapped once, appearing in front of Klun whose figure erupted with time fragments.

In the next instant, they both clashed!

Hacking and striking each other, while they traveled through the area, inconceivably fast with the intent to end the other swiftly.

They exchanged hundreds of strikes in an instant with Tang Wulin knockings Klun down below him as his body erupted with power.

Tang Wulin thrust out his spear, which crackled with destruction and creation while shimmering with temporal powers.

Instantly, the spear split into ten thousand tips that all punctured towards Klun. But if this wasn't enough, they contained the destruction and creation energy began to fuse.

'Forbidden Creation and Destruction: Dragon Emperor True Destruction.'

Instantly True Destruction erupted from each of the spear tips, its power was unimaginable, directly eradicating blasting everything apart.

The waves of True destruction began obliterating everything in front, matter, spiritual, the laws, natural elements, and life itself.

Even the dimensional spaces were being broken by it, time was being erased as if not even it could escape its wrath.

Klun expression changes, as it shudders at the incoming True Destruction attack that numbered over ten thousand.

Klun roared out, a vortex appeared above it, that gave off the feeling that it didn't exist in this present space and time.

This was one of Klun's strongest attacks, a sword that surpasses the concept of time itself to instantly kill its opponent.

Across all time, almost impossible to guard against.

The sword surged with time fragments before it hacked out.

'Forbidden Supernatural, Dragon Emperor Crush.'

In the next moment, the sounds of something being ruthlessly crushed rang out as everything around Tang Wulin.

Klun's expression turned grim as it felt its strength being ruthlessly suppressed. No longer it was at the First Class Level but being suppressed down to an early God Officer.

Even the sword that wasn't present in this space and time was suppressed, no longer appearing in this world and nullified.

Gritting its teeth as the True Destruction almost reached it, Klun screamed out!

"Time of Doom!"

Even its power and strength were suppressed, that didn't mean the plane was. While Tang Wulin Dragon Emperor Crush was able to nullify everything in the area.

It couldn't nullify the whole plane, that stretch far beyond the size of 3-D space.

The whole plane began to lit up, as a surge of time fragments began moving towards Klun.

While the core inside of Klun that was the planar core, began to spin with origin energy, trying to inject Klun with power.

'Forbidden History, Dragon Emperor Ban.'

The sounds of glass shattering caused Klun to freeze, as it felt reality warping. To its slight disbelief, the plane went silent alongside the core inside of it as if it didn't activate it.

As if the event itself was denied.

But it couldn't do anything as just the True Destruction reached it.

Klun screamed as it tried operating all of its abilities, wishing to stop the True Destruction. But that was all useless, as just one True Destruction could blast its whole existence away.

Ten thousand of them?

That was too much!

Klun had no hope of surviving this attack, it was being blasted until it broke apart.

Its entire figure crumbled into several pieces, as the True Destruction swept through the area and the walls.

While this was going on, Tang Wulin was inhaling, devouring all of the origin energy around him.

Wishing to restore his lost energy, as not even could unleash so many series of attacks without feeling winded.

And losing most of his energy, all the previous strikes were his strongest attacks.

But he didn't stay still while he was devouring Origin Energy. His wings all began to flap, shattering the space around him as he vanished.

Before appearing above a vortex that started to form in an area where the True Destruction wasn't ravaging.

He cleaved down with Trishula that roared out with destruction and lighting streaks, wishing to cleave through the vortex.

Yet it was then his eyes narrowed, as felt something terrifying surging in the vortex.

In the next moment, a sword rushed out that was swirling time and space elements that shattered the restrictions of space and time.

It was a sword that stood outside this world time, hacking out fiercely with a vicious blow towards Tang Wulin.

It was just too fast, instantly arriving before Tang Wulin!

But instead of clashing Tang Wulin, it smashed right into four of the wings behind him!

Through their recent evolution, they also gained the ability to break through the restriction of space and time.

They were faster than the concept of time and space itself.

Making them no slower than the temporal sword in front, intercepting it before it could strike Tang Wulin.

The clash between the sword and the wings caused time for just an instant to tremble!

The sword hacked down on the wings, trying to tear it apart. Yet the wing struck back, releasing a terrifying amount of radiance that released a thunderous noise each clash.

'Forbidden Heavenly Paradise: Dragon Emperor Misery.'

Formless energy began to expand from the wings behind Tang Wulin, it came in different colors as it shot out from each wing.

The wings erupted in a terrifying light before the different colored streaks punctured straight towards the sword.

The sword tried to hack them apart, but it was only able to deal with two of them before the other eight crashed into it.

With a bang, the foreign sensation stormed into the time sword before it began to shatter apart.

The sword that wasn't present in this time was no more, shattering into pieces and scattering away.

"Die!"

Klun appeared behind Tang Wulin, in whose hand was a maelstrom of time. It was surging with a strange spatial undercurrent hidden within, as the swirls constantly rotated.

Klun hurled it towards Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin wings shattered the restriction of space and time to appear behind him.

But the maelstrom of time engulfed Tang Wulin while giving off a pale glow. But to the slight shock of Klun, Tang Wulin's figure trembled before a golden light burst out.

As a golden trident blasted out, piercing through the right shoulder of Klun as it erupted out with True Destruction.

As he employed his Forbidden Technique with his Sea God Trident that he only just summoned now, catching Klun by surprise.

Klun couldn't let out a scream as the Destruction Energy started to consume its whole existence before it was turned to nothing.

Yet that was all Tang Wulin could do before his Realm In Body special attribute ran out of time causing the storm to affect.

But not before he clicked his tongue as he saw a portal appearing above with Klun coming out. It was smiling although its body was trembling, as it stared down at Tang Wulin.

Even though it was killed by Tang Wulin and had to give a multiple of itself to return alive, it was happy regardless.

As Tang Wulin was trapped by its attack!

"Your body's ability to ignore a technique for a bit of time is truly marvelous, but it's futile in the end."

"Be trapped in time forever!"

This was Klun's strongest attack, Lost in Time!

It would trap his opponent in a maelstrom of time before the maelstrom began dividing them apart.

Sending their existence across time, stopping them from returning to this present time. As they would need to regain all of their existence that was broken apart and scattered across time.

To return.

But such a thing was impossible, as the Universal Law would erase such a being for becoming such an anomaly.

Klun has seen it a ton of times and also saw how terrifying this technique was, which is why it focused on setting it.

From the beginning of the fight.

As there was nothing else it could really do to beat, Tang Wulin, who it felt would not only resist most of its attack.

But dominate it!

And that wasn't even mentioning how terrifying Tang Wulin's body was. Klun knew none of its attacks would be able to harm Tang Wulin and even if they did, he would simply heal from it.

Even in their previous exchange, he was able to nullify and stop all of its moves. Klun was forced to take the True Destruction blow, which had killed it before.

Fortunately, its existence resides in the rivers of time, so it wasn't so easy to kill it.

'Unfortunately, the same can't be said for you.'
