Chapter 162: How Are You Not Affected By My Space Freeze Technique…

He didn’t dodge. Instead, he raised Eternal Hunger and slashed upward.

The blade and spear collided.

A torrent of fire exploded out, rolling in waves, but Kranos didn’t move. He pressed forward, forcing Ren back with raw strength. Sparks lit up the field, heat searing the air around them.

The battle was getting intense.

After blocking the attack, Kranos’s thoughts moved rapidly. He quickly activated Rapid Thoughts since he knew he didn’t have much time left.

He was also thinking of ways to get rid of the array. However, the battle with Ren was too intense, causing him to be unable to focus.

Just then, Ren, using the momentum of his spear, rapidly retreated a few meters away from Kranos.

Glancing at Kranos from a distance, he clasped his hands, then muttered in a low voice.

“Phoenix Flame Domain.” Even though Kranos was far away, he could still hear Ren’s voice.

It was at that moment Kranos recalled that he had been battling someone in the God Realm.

Before he could react, a familiar feeling washed over him. This time, it was the sensation of a mysterious domain entrapping him. A wave of heat hit his face, and he could feel a burning sensation spreading beneath his skin.

The next moment, the battle between Kranos and Ren turned into a world of fire. However, Kranos wasn’t as powerless as he had been when he first encountered a domain.

Due to cultivating the Heaven and Earth Movement Technique, Kranos felt he could still move freely under the pressure.

Previously, his comprehension hadn’t reached such a stage. However, now his comprehension was on a whole other level.

Kranos was elated, and without hesitation, his figure faded rapidly into a gust of wind. The wind flowed gently, and within a few breaths, he had appeared outside the range of the domain.

However, just then, he felt his hair stand on end. Ahead of him was a large fire phoenix. Without needing to think too much, Kranos knew this was an attack sent out by Ren using his spear.

The attack came crashing down with the ferocious pressure of a fierce beast. Knowing he couldn’t defeat such a crazy attack, Kranos moved his time essence. Immediately, the mysterious time link was established with his surroundings.

In the blink of an eye, everything surrounding Kranos became still. However, just then, Kranos noticed something through the corner of his eye.

Aurora, who was reaching out to strike her opponent, was stunned to see him suddenly freeze.

She turned her head, startled to see everyone on the battlefield paused. Then her attention was immediately drawn to Kranos, who was looking at her in shock.

How was she unaffected by his time ability?

At first, Kranos had felt that the lady was slightly dangerous, but now he understood that she was probably the most deadly enemy he had ever met.

“Such an interesting time ability. At such an early realm, you can already pause time. That’s quite rare. Master will be really excited to see a time genius,” Aurora’s eyes sparkled as she spoke.

However, Kranos was horrified hearing her words.

From what she said, there seemed to be other time cultivators in this immortal world. And her master… how terrifying must her master be? Was she also a time cultivator?

Many thoughts passed through Kranos’s mind. If Aurora’s master was a time cultivator, he would be pleased and even eager to meet her. However, he felt that was definitely not the truth. Previously, she had wanted to shackle him, after all.

There was also the situation when he had killed Aurora, only for her to come back to life. That could be considered a time ability. After all, Kranos had regressed a couple of times now, so he understood the concept of coming back to life better than most.

Nothing was certain yet. But if her master was truly going to be helpful, that would be for the best. Kranos felt complex emotions in his heart.

He sighed but didn’t reply. Instead, he asked, “How are you not affected by my space-freeze ability?”

Even though she called it a time ability, Kranos didn’t completely believe her. He couldn’t be that careless. He had to test her first before deciding whether it was true or not.

“Heh, lying now, aren’t you? This is obviously the essence of time. I can feel it.” A strange light flashed through Aurora’s eyes as she spoke, but she didn’t make any other movements.

Kranos was stunned. However, he still wouldn’t give in just yet.

“I still don’t get why you’re confusing my space element and linking it with time…” Kranos’s face held a frown as he lied smoothly.

Aurora just sneered as she replied, “Hmph. If it was truly a space ability, wouldn’t there have been a drastic pressure threatening to crush everyone? Besides…” Aurora fell into deep thought as she reached this stage.

Master said I shouldn’t use that technique, but I can, right? Just for an instant. To show him that I’m not lying. Aurora made a decision inwardly, and the next moment, her eyes turned grey.

Her hair also turned grey. In the blink of an eye, she radiated an ancient, profound, and mysterious aura, causing Kranos to feel despair for the first time in his life.

“Watch closely, Kranos.” As she spoke, it was as though countless people were speaking at once.

Kranos could hear myriad voices, causing him to be unable to distinguish one from another. But he could tell there were more than a hundred voices in the mix.

The next moment, Aurora, who was hovering slightly in the air, reached out her hand to the surrounding space and performed a simple motion.

It was a plucking motion, as though she was pulling something from the sky. But in the next instant, Kranos’s expression changed drastically, and his face quickly paled.

His senses frantically reached into his Time Palace. And there he saw it.

On the smooth surface of the calm palace, a hairline crack had appeared, spreading slowly through the structure.

After the motion was completed, Aurora returned to her normal state. She looked drained, and her face paled rapidly.

Kranos’s senses returned to his body, and he couldn’t control the shock running through him like a jolt of lightning.

He was in a daze as he stared at Aurora. He could barely control his emotions.

Even then, he managed to grit his teeth and ask in a deep voice, “What was that?”

“That?” Aurora smiled playfully, then replied to Kranos in a mysterious tone, “That was the essence of…”

Unfortunately, before she could finish her statement, the flow of time returned to normal.

Not only because time was almost up, but also because Kranos had been injured in his Time Palace, making him unable to hold on to the wisps of time energy linking the surroundings.

The attack of the cultivator she had been fighting came abruptly for both of them. However, Kranos, using the time ability, quickly maneuvered around it, substituting himself with a time clone.

Meanwhile, Aurora slid down, dodging to the side. At the same time, she waved her hand, causing a mysterious grey aura to gush from her body, emanating from her palm. Because of this, the attack that almost reached her was destroyed in a blink.

The man engaged with her was stunned. He stared at Aurora in shock. Even he couldn’t tell what kind of attack she had just used. However, Aurora didn’t use the grey mist again.

Instead, taking advantage of the fact that the man was lost in a daze, she moved her sword, aiming for his waist to catch him off guard.

Although the man was stunned, he knew he had to dodge this strike.

Without hesitation, he leapt to the side, and at the same time, a mysterious aura spread out from him.

The presence of a domain.

Because she didn’t have the Heaven and Earth Movement Technique and was of a lower cultivation, she was instantly restricted by the domain. However, Aurora just sneered, and the next moment, the grey aura spread from her again.

This time, because she was using her grey mist to deal with essences of lower level like fire, wind, and the like, she didn’t need to completely transform into that form.

She waved her hand, letting the grey mist cover her.

As soon as it did, the pressure of the domain was suppressed, almost completely destroyed. Because of this, Aurora no longer had any difficulty facing the man.

In order not to overuse the grey mist, Aurora chose to fight using her sword. Besides, the sword was far from ordinary.

Since he had used his time clone, Kranos was able to get away from Ren’s attack in time. Seeing Aurora deal with her opponent, who was using his domain so effortlessly, Kranos understood that her words from before were most probably true.

She could definitely have slain all those assassins.

Meanwhile, Kathryn’s eyes flashed with a strange light as she stared at Aurora. A thought appeared in her mind.

As expected of the essence of…
