Chapter 40 Time Disruption

"Looks like you're quite confident?" The lean man in the silver battle suit suddenly narrowed his gaze as he looked at Lu Ming, then sneered, "Then I'll show you the difficulty of the fifth level!"

The words had barely left his mouth when, boom!

The figure of the lean, silver-clad man instantly became ethereal, and he appeared before Lu Ming as if by teleportation, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he roared, "Die!"

The blood-red spear transformed into a chilling, blood-red vortex of energy that enveloped Lu Ming and pierced through him!

"Hiss~"

Where the crimson vortex of air passed, the surrounding space seemed to be strangely distorted!

In reality, this move didn't affect space itself, but rather the surrounding time field. As for the name of this move, it's... Time Flow Interruption!

Time interruption, like 'spatial cutting' in the laws of space, is an extremely terrifying move within the laws of time. This move has two major advantages: firstly, it is fast and unpredictable; secondly, its attack power is incredibly strong!

"Time cutoff? Sorry... I can do that too!" Lu Ming met the lean man's murderous gaze with a mocking smile.

"What!" Just as the attack was about to pierce Lu Ming's body, the lean man noticed that Lu Ming's figure had also become strangely blurry at some point!

Without a doubt, his move was also a "time interruption", but he hadn't even noticed it.

"Where is he?" The lean man's expression changed drastically. The blood-red spear in his hand suddenly changed course like a train changing tracks, sweeping across the void in front of him. At the same time, his entire body rapidly retreated!

As he retreated, he activated his mental power, consciousness, and perception to frantically search for Lu Ming's 'true form'!

While the application of the laws of time does not involve 'illusory bodies,' the concept of 'virtual bodies' does exist. The so-called 'virtual bodies' refer to the 'past bodies' and 'future bodies' that arise from fluctuations in the laws of time.

Therefore, whether it was the lean man in silver or Lu Ming, those who remained in place to confuse their opponents were actually just their "past selves," while their true selves could take this opportunity to move freely and attack their enemies!

"laugh!"

Just as the lean man in silver was searching for Lu Ming's true form, suddenly—

A blurry shadow appeared beside him almost instantly, and at the same time, a terrifying spear tip, as sharp as a thunderbolt, suddenly came into his view.

"Not good!" The lean man in silver robes hurriedly swung his blood-red spear to parry the attack, and his body retreated violently once again!

"Swoosh~" Unexpectedly, the blurry shadow that his blood-red spear struck vanished like a bubble.

No, that's also an 'illusory body'!

The lean man was momentarily stunned, then looked down at his chest. There, a gleaming, azure spearhead, stained with his blood, protruded abruptly.

"When?" The lean man turned around, his face pale, and finally found his opponent behind him.

But at this moment, life and death were already decided!

"boom!"

A terrifying burst of silver energy erupted from the gun that had pierced through the chest and back of the lean man in silver, instantly causing his body to explode!

Fifth floor, passed!

"Even when time is interrupted, there are still differences in skill..." Lu Ming smiled slightly, gazing ahead.

The tornado in front of him suddenly dissipated, extending towards the Sky Bridge on the sixth floor above. Lu Ming transformed into a stream of light and quickly flew along the Sky Bridge.

……

The Skybridge plane, central island.

Hundreds of immortal gods watched as Lu Ming easily killed his opponent after their battle on the screen, and they couldn't help but feel a little suffocated.

"Fifth level! He really passed!" The King of Dawn and Dusk, who had been holding his arms across his chest, involuntarily opened them and stared intently at the young figure on the screen.

The other super-strong individuals who had grasped the intricacies of the situation were equally stunned: "He can not only leave behind a 'past self' to confuse his opponents, but also create a 'future self' to interfere with his enemies... This is just too unbelievable!"

Creating a 'past body' and a 'future body' are both physical techniques applied under the 'time acceleration' branch of the time law.

The former only requires accelerating one's own time to leave the original position, automatically leaving behind a "past self". The latter, however, requires actively activating the fundamental laws of time to "create" a "future self" that is difficult to distinguish from reality. The difference in difficulty is obviously enormous.

The mere fact that they can create a 'future body' already signifies that their understanding of the fundamental laws of time has reached a new level.

"Impressive! He has almost perfectly mastered the 'Time Disruption' technique. Whether it's his movement or his marksmanship, he completely outmaneuvered the guardian of the fifth level!"

"He has definitely grasped the ultimate perfection of the first image of the Chaos Stele of the Ultimate Universe. He has probably also reached a very deep level of understanding of the second image, otherwise it would be impossible for him to pass the fifth level so easily!"

"Three years!"

"How could he have improved so much in just three years, and he wasn't even in the initial universe!"

"This is unbelievable!"

After analyzing Lu Ming's "level of progress," the immortal gods present could not believe it at all.

Most geniuses progress more slowly as they get older. But Lu Ming's progress is becoming increasingly astonishing!

Beside King Dawn and Dusk, a woman with crimson feathers spoke earnestly, "He didn't seem to have much trouble passing through the fifth level; the guardian of the sixth level might not be able to stop him either!"

"In the last tens of millions of years, during my time in Chaos City, not a single genius has passed the sixth level." The 'Butterfly King,' clad in pink battle armor and possessing three pairs of transparent wings, was also filled with shock in her beautiful eyes. "Moreover... he hasn't even revealed his trump card yet!"

All the immortal powerhouses who have watched the Genius Battle know that Lu Ming's greatest strength is not his single understanding of the fundamental law of time, but the fusion law he touched after mastering the "Destroying the Secret Manual"!

Three years ago, the other party had already grasped a trace of the 'Thunder Time' fusion law.

Will there be any new developments three years from now?

Although comprehending the laws of fusion is hundreds or thousands of times more difficult than grasping the single law of time itself, if this goal were set on Lu Ming, no one could guarantee that he wouldn't create another miracle!

Upon hearing the Butterfly King's exclamation, the other immortal gods fell silent for a moment. They had almost forgotten that this little monster was most famous for the fusion law that made them all tremble with fear.

……

The end of the sixth level of the Sky Bridge.

The constantly spinning tornado emitted a voice: "Choose your opponent: Warrior, Controller, Illusionist. Defeat him to enter the seventh level."

"Warrior!"

Holding the Star-Refining Spear, Lu Ming looked at the burly man in front of him, dressed in silver battle armor and wearing a silver mask, with a cold gaze.

The man in silver, holding a long silver spear, sneered, "A young man at the first level of the Universe Realm dares to attempt the sixth level? He's certainly confident enough."

"Unleash your full power, or you won't even be able to fight back when I make my move."

Lu Ming sneered, "You should say the same thing to yourself!"

"I hope you really have the ability to talk your way out of it."

The man in silver stared coldly at Lu Ming.

call out!

Before anyone knew it, the man in silver had already moved. His speed was as fast as lightning, and the silver spear in his hand was like a shooting star, instantly piercing the sky.

As for the original spot, there was still a 'silver-clad man' who sneered and spoke.

If his opponent had simply stood there and listened to his taunts, he would probably have been killed by him by now.

The opponent on the sixth floor still uses the "Time Disruption" move as their main attack method. However, the guardian of this floor has clearly reached a very high level of mastery over this move.

In terms of movement, they can even control their 'illusory body' to emit sounds to confuse their opponents.

The reason for this is that the depth of the guardians' understanding of the laws at this level is far greater than that at the fifth level.

The second image of the Chaos Stele is far more profound and powerful than the first one!

The sixth level of the Sky Bridge represents the strength one should possess after gaining a basic understanding of the second image.

"Tch~"

In Lu Ming's perception, he "saw" the silver-clad man, leaving a blurry silver afterimage, moving at extreme speed as he attacked him. The silver spear tip contained a chilling aura of the primordial laws of the universe.

In an instant.

Space was distorted, revealing a blurry gun shadow. The flow of time was disrupted, making the gun shadow extremely elusive and impossible to find!

Clang!

The crisp sound of weapons clashing echoed in the void.

In the nick of time, an incomparably dazzling silver spear light suddenly appeared, seemingly slow, but instantly blocking the silver spear tip.
