"This girl is always messing around!"
In the Demon Emperor's Palace, Qi Jue's eyes flashed with a hint of worry. The Tower of Time was a gift she gave to Yiling, and no one understood its function better than she did.
Inside the tower, it was a world of its own, where the flow of time could be adjusted at will. If the Tower of Time's function was limited to this, it wouldn't be worthy of being a Chaos Treasure.
The real function of the Tower of Time was to allow its wielder to accelerate or decelerate their own time.
Accelerating meant entering the future; decelerating meant returning to the past.
This wasn't as simple as merely walking along the River of Time. Walking along the River of Time allowed one to travel through the past and future, but only as an observer. Those who hadn't broken through to the Dao couldn't use their own power to interfere with the past or future, otherwise they would attract heavenly karma, ultimately leading to eternal damnation.
But the Tower of Time allowed its wielder to interfere with the past and future. It could grant beings below the Dao-breaking realm the ability to do so.
However, those below the Dao-breaking realm were still within the Heavenly Dao. Excessive interference with the past or future would inevitably bring disaster.
"Aunt Qi Jue, believe in Sister Yiling. Since she dares to do this, it means she's confident in quickly killing the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord."
Yun Shuang comforted her, trying to ease her worries.
Qi Jue was stunned. There was a time when she was always comforting the Princess, but now she was being comforted by the Princess instead. It really gave her a strange feeling.
The Princess has really grown up!
A smile appeared on Qi Jue's face as she said, "The Princess is right, we should believe in her."
"Pfft!"
On the battlefield, Yiling's figure disappeared again, and another bloody hole appeared on the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's body.
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's expression became extremely solemn. He already knew what methods Yiling was using.
"I didn't expect the Tower of Time to have such abilities. If I had it back then..."
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's eyes drooped. If he had the Tower of Time back then, perhaps he would be the Demon Emperor of the Demon Realm now.
"But, how many times can you use it?" The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord looked at Yiling with a sinister gaze. No matter how strong a Demon Lord was, they were still within the scope of the Heavenly Dao. This method of accelerating oneself into the future was a taboo, something the Heavenly Dao wouldn't allow.
As long as he endured, without him even needing to take action, Yiling would be backlashed by the Heavenly Dao and die.
How could Yiling not know what the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was thinking? She admitted that she couldn't use such methods frequently, but...
In her mind, a figure appeared, a figure that looked exactly like her, wearing black armor and holding a black spear.
Except her aura was even stronger!
That was her future!
Perhaps even her master didn't know that the ultimate function of the Tower of Time wasn't to allow oneself to enter the future or return to the past, but to use the Tower of Time as a medium to borrow the Dao fruit of the future!
However, it was a pity that the strength of the future Dao fruit was similar to her own. But that was normal. If she borrowed the future of becoming a Demon Emperor, then the Tower of Time would probably be unable to withstand the karma and be annihilated.
"But it's enough!"
A smile appeared on the corner of Yiling's mouth.
Seeing this, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord immediately enlarged his shield, actually covering his entire body with it.
This way, even if Yiling could enter the future to attack him, she wouldn't be able to break through the shield's defense.
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord thought, this was the reason he was confident in holding on.
"Hahaha, Yiling, I said, I am still invincible!"
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's laughter shook the heavens and the earth. Even those behind the passage didn't expect the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord to turtle up. Although it was embarrassing, it was better than losing his life.
"Now it's hard to say who will win."
Those who were previously not optimistic about the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord now felt that the outcome of this great battle had become unpredictable. Even if they could predict the future, as experts of the same level, the battle had already disrupted the heavenly secrets and karma. The future they saw was a chaotic mess.
"Wait, what's that?"
A Demon Lord was stunned, a trace of shock flashing in his eyes.
At Yiling's brow, there was a small figure sitting cross-legged in the void. She was wearing black armor, with a long spear floating beside her. She exuded the aura of the passage of time, but around her, there was a faint light curtain, seemingly isolating her from appearing in this time and space.
"Break!"
A delicate shout rang out, it was Yiling's voice, but not the current Yiling, but the small figure. She suddenly stood up, holding the long spear, and with one spear, she pierced through the light curtain that isolated time and space. Then she took a step out, her figure growing rapidly. Soon, another Yiling appeared beside Yiling.
Seeing this scene, Qi Jue and Yun Shuang were both surprised.
"Is that Sister Yiling's twin sister?" Yun Shuang asked.
She was born in the Demon Realm for less than 200,000 years, and Sister Yiling was already an invincible Demon King who dominated the Demon Realm at that time. If she really had a twin sister, it seemed reasonable?
"No, that's the future Yiling!" Qi Jue saw the clues.
"I didn't expect the Tower of Time to have such a function. I've had the Tower of Time for billions of years, and I didn't know it could be used like this. As expected, it was right for me to give it to Yiling back then."
Treasures choose their masters. She had a whim to give the Tower of Time to Yiling, who had just become a True Demon, and now it seemed that everything was arranged by fate.
Yiling was the true owner of the Tower of Time, and she was just a tool!
"Two Yilings, how is that possible?"
Among their comrades, the Demon King army protected by the imperial decree also changed their expressions.
"I take back what I just said." The Demon Lord who said "who will win" earlier said softly.
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, who had turtled up inside the shield, also felt something was wrong. He felt another Demon Lord's aura appearing on the battlefield, and it was very powerful. Even hiding inside the shield, he felt a great pressure.
"Bang!"
It was as if a world had been destroyed, chaos shattered, and the void turned to dust.
The future Yiling didn't speak. The black spear in her hand stabbed out, and the indestructible shield was immediately filled with cracks.
The current Yiling narrowed her eyes. She knew that her Dao fruit of the future, although it hadn't broken through the shackles of the Demon Lord, had gone very far on the path of the Demon Lord compared to the current her. It wasn't something she could compare to.
That was right, it was reasonable for the future her to be stronger than the current her. If the future was still weaker, then she would have no future.
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was horrified. The next moment, he felt a powerful force hitting the shield.
"Boom!"
The indestructible shield shattered, turning into thousands of pieces, like shooting stars streaking across the void.
The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's figure was revealed. When he saw the truth, his pupils shrank.
Two Yilings? How was this possible?
This matter was too bizarre, making him feel the crisis of death.
He had only felt such a crisis countless years ago when he was chased by Yun Wuyue.
"You..."
"Die!"
The future Yiling was very strong, not giving the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord a chance to talk nonsense. A black light appeared, and the long spear had already pierced through the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's head.
The black light soared, instantly tearing the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's primordial spirit, and then the long spear shook, turning the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's immortal body into powder.
Three spears!
From the future Yiling's appearance to killing the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, it only took three spears.
If the two spears to break the shield were removed, the future Yiling only used one spear to kill the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord!
The current Yiling's eyes flashed with divine light. She was originally full of confidence in her future, and seeing this scene, her confidence became even stronger.
This scene happened too fast, taking less than two breaths of time. This made the Demon Lords behind the passage unable to carry out their previously determined plan.
Too fast, they didn't expect the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord to fall so quickly. They hadn't even prepared to suppress Yiling.
After killing the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, the future Yiling waved her long spear, and the blood-colored spear left by the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord came to Yiling.
Yiling naturally accepted this trophy. Although she couldn't use it, she could reward her subordinates in the future.
Then, the future Yiling looked at the passage. Through the passage, her eyes swept over the Demon Lords.
"What, do you still want to continue attacking? Killing the Hundred-Eyed is already your limit."
A Demon Lord said coldly.
No matter how strong the future Yiling was, it was the future. Through the medium of the Tower of Time, she could only send the Dao fruit from the future to this time and space. The main body couldn't come. Killing the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord had already reached the limit. If she interfered with this time and space again, unimaginable things would happen.
Perhaps the beings below the Demon Lord in this time and space would no longer exist.
The future Yiling didn't speak, but focused her gaze on the Devouring Spirit Demon Lord.
Then, the long spear stabbed!
"Bold, you actually dare to attack?"
These Demon Lords scolded one after another, not expecting the future Yiling to actually attack, but they didn't dare to really fight the future Yiling, but only took action to block the attack.
"Rumble!"
The earth-shattering explosion, even with the protection of the imperial decree, the Demon King army still suffered heavy losses.
"You..."
A Demon Lord glared at the future Yiling. They had already understood Yiling's purpose, which was to let the aftermath of the explosion sweep their army.
The current Yiling's eyes flickered. This was exactly the same as her idea. As expected of the future her.
The future Yiling remained silent, waving her long spear to continue attacking, but at this moment, the bodies of all beings below the Demon Lord became illusory, as if they were about to disappear from this time and space.
Seeing this, the future Yiling stopped.
If she continued to attack, she would really affect the beings of this time and space.
The Demon Lords behind the passage also breathed a sigh of relief.
The future Yiling put too much pressure on them. As Demon Lords, they actually felt like they were facing a higher life form.
Only the Devouring Spirit Demon Lord saw through the details of the future Yiling.
The meaning of the ultimate!
The future Yiling had obviously also comprehended the meaning of the ultimate.
Fortunately, that was the future. The future was uncertain. As long as the current Yiling was killed, then all her future could be cut off.
For Yiling, the killing intent in the Devouring Spirit Demon Lord's heart had risen to an unbearable level. Even if he couldn't break through the Demon Emperor's Palace this time, he would completely kill Yiling.
But the Devouring Spirit Demon Lord didn't show it on the surface, and even like other Demon Lords, his eyes also showed shock.
"Attack!"
At this moment, a Demon Lord moved. Beside him, three Demon Lords acted at the same time, while other Demon Lords, including Chiyang, rushed towards the Demon Emperor's Palace.
Four Demon Lords joined forces to kill Yiling, and the others resisted the Demon Emperor's Palace.
Originally, they were afraid of the future Yiling and didn't dare to attack, but just now it had been confirmed that the future Yiling could no longer attack, otherwise there would be big problems with the beings in this time and space.
She was afraid, so she stopped.
"Die!"
The four Demon Lords were very fast. In an instant, they had already arrived beside the current Yiling, surrounding her and attacking fiercely.
"Rumble!"
The heaven-defying magical powers instantly drowned Yiling, and at this moment, the future Yiling's figure dissipated, as if she had disappeared.
"Demon Lords are mighty!"
Seeing this, the Demon King army, which had suffered heavy losses, immediately cheered, and the morale that had been low due to the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord being killed rose sharply.
"Heh, it seems I don't need to take action."
The Devouring Spirit Demon Lord sneered in his heart. Being ambushed by four Demon Lords with thunderous means, Yiling, who was no longer in her peak state, had no possibility of survival.
The disappearance of the future Yiling proved that the current Yiling had fallen.
But the next moment, everyone's eyes changed.
A colorful divine light appeared between heaven and earth, and in the colorful divine light, there were two figures.
Their faces couldn't be seen clearly, but their figures were graceful.
"Qi Jue!"
A Demon Lord's voice was low.
In the colorful divine light, Qi Jue protected Yiling. At this moment, Qi Jue didn't look like a demon from the Demon Realm at all, but like a goddess wearing colorful feather clothes, full of sacred aura.
"Master!"
Yiling's face was pale now, her aura was weak, looking like she had suffered a great loss of vitality.
She had indeed suffered a great loss of vitality. Borrowing the Dao fruit of the future with the Tower of Time was not without a price.
"Don't be afraid, your teacher is here!" Qi Jue's voice was very gentle, like a mother, protecting Yiling behind her.
"Qi Jue, since you have left the Demon Emperor's Palace, then stay!"
The four Demon Lords immediately surrounded the master and disciple, their eyes full of戏谑.
From the moment Yiling sacrificed the Tower of Time, they had already expected that Qi Jue would save Yiling at a critical moment, and they would take this opportunity to leave the master and disciple.
Demon Lord Xiangbo died inexplicably, they all suspected that Qi Jue borrowed the power of the Demon Emperor's Palace, and if they wanted to break through the Demon Emperor's Palace, they needed to lure Qi Jue out of the Demon Emperor's Palace.
Without Qi Jue guarding the Demon Emperor's Palace, even if Yun Shuang controlled the Demon Emperor's Palace, without the cultivation of the Demon Lord, she would not be able to exert the power of the Demon Emperor's Palace.
In comparison, they were more afraid of Qi Jue.
"So this is your purpose." How clever Qi Jue was, she naturally understood their plan.
"Qi Jue, you are the demon closest to Yun Wuyue. What we are most worried about is not Yun Shuang, that little girl. As long as you are suppressed, Yun Shuang, who can't exert the power of the Demon Emperor's Palace, is not to be feared."
A Demon Lord sneered.
At this time, including Chiyang, there were a total of nine Demon Lords surrounding the Demon Emperor's Palace. They exuded the aura of霸天绝地, making time and space almost stagnant. The tyrannical aura made the world lose its color.
"So you uncles look down on this princess so much? Not to be feared, it really makes me a little lacking in confidence!"
Just then, a bewitching voice echoed from within the Demon Emperor's Palace.
Yun Shuang, clad in purple battle armor, appeared in the high sky. Facing the encirclement of wolves, her face was utterly indifferent.
All the Demon Lords were momentarily stunned. Seeing the purple figure in the sky, they suddenly seemed to recall the figure that had terrified them for countless years.
"Impossible, how could she have become a Venerable?"
A Demon Lord shrieked in disbelief.
How old was Yun Shuang? From birth until now, less than two hundred thousand years. Such a short period of time would pass in the blink of an eye for them during a single closed-door cultivation session.
Yun Shuang had actually become a Venerable?
"Is becoming a Venerable difficult?"
Yun Shuang retorted, if you had a good daddy, let alone becoming a Venerable, becoming an Emperor would be simple.
