Chapter 2666 New Tactics
The jade talisman in Xiaoyou's hand had a slight shimmering light, indicating that it was made of good material, but it didn't seem to have much value.
However, this was one of the trump cards her master had given her, containing a distraction attack with immense destructive power.
She hadn't wanted to use it before, partly because she was reluctant to part with it, and partly because... she couldn't precisely control the kill radius.
Once used, not only would the Quasi-Divided God Lord be wiped out, but the entire Lost Plateau would also be reduced to ashes.
Moreover, there are a large number of humans on this plate, and Xiaoyou doesn't want to bear the consequences of that.
However, since Qu Zhenzun did not want to ask Spider Lord to take action, then she had no choice but to do so.
A trump card is meant to be used. She has already hitched a ride, so she must demonstrate her value instead of being petty.
At the same time, a magnificent palace suddenly appeared, ancient and imposing, its walls mottled and weathered...
Han Li's combat experience was even greater than Xiao You's. When she realized that the situation was not right, she immediately released her Nascent Soul level protective gear.
From the depths of the void, some unknown distance away, a faint aura suddenly appeared. "What the hell... it's happening again?"
"Young man, you've gone a bit too far. Don't you know to refine it first?"
Han Li also wanted to completely refine it, but it was really too difficult. He could only control it temporarily, which was already the best he could do.
However, when the two were determined to fight, Qu Zhenzun had more combat experience.
His right eye twitched, and he suddenly discovered that a huge palace had appeared in front of him... which even affected his Time Divine Power.
Fortunately, Qu Jianlei was not lacking in combat experience, and his body instantly swelled to a height of over 5,000 kilometers.
Xiaoyou made the same choice immediately.
—For them, an altitude of 5,000 kilometers was just above the palace, enough to peek out.
The brief interruption of the two Time-Traveling Divine Powers had a significant impact on the Quasi-Divine Lord in front!
The Dao Transformation, which had been accelerating wildly, suddenly slowed down dramatically. The feeling was truly indescribable.
Even the overwhelming aura of the quasi-great lord couldn't help but falter, clearly disrupted.
The process of transforming into the Dao prioritizes naturalness. The previous acceleration of time was already unreasonable, and now there's an abrupt stop.
Seeing this, Han Li couldn't help but stick out her tongue secretly—fortunately, it was a lucky accident.
A woman's voice rang out leisurely, "That acceleration and sudden stop, her driving skills are just as good as mine."
As she made sarcastic remarks, Qu Jianlei slowly opened his right eye.
After Xiaoyou inherited the power of time, just as she was about to unleash the jade talisman, she suddenly sensed something amiss around her.
Her divine sense swept across the area and she was immediately surprised: what kind of scene was in Qu Zhenzun's right eye?
Black and white swirled in his eyes, and as they turned, a dazzling yet enigmatic yin-yang symbol appeared...
"The Divine Power of Life and Death? This guy... no wonder Han Li asked for the True Meaning of Life and Death, so he was planning to fleece her like this!"
The next moment, a strong sense of anticipation arose in her heart. What amazing effects could the combination of birth, death, and time produce?
Tens of millions of kilometers away, the two True Venerable clones retreated rapidly while keeping a close eye on the battle ahead.
"A Nascent Soul level magic weapon!" The two people's perception abilities were at the basic level of a True Venerable.
Even though the palace was somewhat dilapidated and not fully refined, the subtle difference in aura was something that a Nascent Soul cultivator could not match.
No wonder they dared to defy the king; they really have something up their sleeve!
The next moment, the two were dumbfounded. "That, that, that... what kind of ability is that? Is it a supernatural power?"
When that ball of light voluntarily gravitated towards Qu Jianlei, there was more than one True Venerable present, including a powerful figure like Han Li.
However, no one could discern what kind of opportunity this was, and the upper limit of their guesses was nothing more than the true meaning of birth and death.
The power of time manipulation is formidable, but even a True Venerable has some understanding of the rules of time.
However, the power of birth and death... cannot be said to be stronger than the power of time, the key is that too few people have witnessed it.
Those who can understand the true meaning of birth and death are even fewer!
It's normal that they couldn't recognize the Life and Death Divine Power. Even Xiao You, if he hadn't heard of it before, might not have recognized it at first glance.
But soon, the two noticed another problem: "Why does it feel... so similar to that Great Khan's taste?"
Believe it or not, the transformation of the Tao and birth and death do have some similar characteristics. The former, too, contains a burgeoning vitality hidden within a state of deathly stillness.
"Is that really the case? At first I thought he was a heretical cultivator... Is there some kind of relationship between this person and the Great Lord?"
"I wouldn't dare to guess. I'm just curious whether this person can withstand using two supernatural powers at the same time... These are supernatural powers, aren't they?"
In fact, it wasn't just these two who were worried about whether Qu Zhenzun could hold on; the one who cared the most was Han Li!
He knew his teammates' combat strength all too well. While the Life and Death Divine Power was indeed very powerful, their foundation and reserves were seriously insufficient!
Qu Zhenzun's Time Divine Power has the core of the world as its resource, but its birth and death... is purely a depletion of its own accumulation!
With a thought, Han Li produced a cyan light in his hand—Xiao You had a trump card, and so did he!
But what effect would this power of time combined with birth and death produce?
He wasn't really sure about the outcome. The key point was that he had just released the palace to protect his side, and he almost made a mistake!
The final result was good; the opposing Grand Prince was severely affected and was unable to launch a third attack.
However, it is an undeniable fact that he was so eager to protect his friend that he neglected to cooperate.
Fortunately, both teammates had good teamwork, and the key was that the Time Manipulation ability was really bad for the opponent!
Given this precedent, it's hard to say what kind of chain reaction his reckless attack will cause.
Ultimately, the supernatural powers of time and birth and death are extremely rare, and even a Great Lord of the Divine Realm may not have witnessed such a combination!
Han Li wasn't sure of the outcome and would definitely need to observe it closely, but at the same time, he was very worried about Qu Zhenzun's condition.
On such a battlefield, there is no room for distraction or hesitation. With a sweep of his divine sense, he discovered the jade talisman in Xiaoyou's hand.
He was quite familiar with this kind of thing; although it didn't seem particularly remarkable, it was likely sealing away the Great Lord's attacks.
In his desperation, he didn't care about anything else, "What are you waiting for? You're so petty!"
"What do you know?" To everyone's surprise, Xiaoyou retorted without hesitation, "Do you know about the compatibility of time-based magical abilities?"
Han Li was speechless upon hearing this; he truly understood the concept of compatibility!
Simply put, the Time Amulet is renowned not only because it is powerful on its own, but also because it can be combined with other Amulets!
Just like when he and Qu Zhenzun worked together, the combination of the extreme cold field and the passage of time greatly enhanced even the power of extreme cold.
Can the effect of being frozen for one minute be the same as being frozen for a hundred years?
Of course, there are also drawbacks. For example, right now, with two True Venerables using the Time Divine Power, Han Li's energy consumption is increasing rapidly.
Fortunately, this kind of consumption is controllable; he just needs to pay attention to adjusting his coordination.
Now, Xiaoyou's words make it very clear: she wants her time-manipulation abilities to adapt to the birth and death of Qu Zhenzun.
They've all opened up and are cooperating... Han Li gritted her teeth hard, but almost bit her own tongue.
"Hmm, that's good," he said calmly, sending out his divine sense. "Birth and death and transformation are quite similar, so be careful!"
When he arrived, he felt that he had seen this Daoist before, and when the person opened his right eye, he immediately realized who it was.
Han Li knew that Qu Zhenzun could cause birth and death, so he had specially studied this supernatural power and considered how he should cooperate with it in the future.
These are all qualities that a qualified comrade-in-arms should possess. He has lived for over a thousand years and needs no reminders from others.
Because he had thought about it, he immediately considered the relevant impact.
“I noticed it,” Xiaoyou was no less capable than him. If she still couldn’t react after being given a hint, she would be incredibly embarrassed!
“The two may resonate or become dominant,” Han Li realized completely.
At that moment, he finally understood why he dared not launch an attack.
He had a premonition of a potential danger—his attack on the Great Lord might be transferred to Qu Zhenzun!
This is how the Great Dao is: the more similar the rules are, the easier it is for them to be integrated, absorbed... or even devoured!
“I understand,” Xiaoyou replied calmly. “My time-based attack has succeeded, so you don’t need to worry about it!”
I really want to beat this guy up! Han Li felt a little indignant—it's like I didn't succeed!
However, he had to admit that mastering the extreme cold field and the divine power of time were different things.
The latter can sense the effects of the time-manipulation ability immediately and make adjustments as needed.
His extreme cold field can also be quickly adjusted according to the situation.
However, this domain does not have wide adaptability, and most of the time there is no need to consider adjustments. You can simply think of it as just going for it!
It's simply a matter of brute force creating miracles!
The next moment, Xiaoyou actually did it. She directly locked onto a certain area and began to greatly expand and contract her Time Divine Power!
Simply put, it involves alternating between fast and slow speeds to completely confuse the opponent.
In ordinary combat, this kind of behavior would be considered childish.
What good is the power of time? Victory still comes from accumulation! Slowing down is like giving the enemy free rein!
The problem is that there are two true masters wielding the power of time on site, one maintaining high pressure and the other moving at varying speeds!
Qu Jianlei was also well-versed in the workings of time flow. After sensing Xiaoyou's actions, he instantly understood what she was trying to do.
Without hesitation, he ceded part of the area—you deal with this part, I'll deal with the others!
It is important to understand that the transformation of the Dao is a holistic process of change.
In an environment that emphasizes natural development, different speeds of time can create a powerful tearing force.
“Hey, interesting,” Xiaoyou pursed her cherry lips slightly, seemingly understanding his intention, “It’s really fun.”
She not only accepted Qu Zhenzun's plan in its entirety, but also took it a step further.
Every now and then, she would encroach on some of the other person's territory, while voluntarily giving up some of her own...
