Chapter 163: Divine Specialization: Fate
As Matthew’s hand began to emit a growing light,
Tai Ji sehe impending threat of death a out desperate cries:
“No, I was wrong! I admit my mistakes!”
“I still have value! I know tless secrets! I know the power behind fate…”
“…”
She begged for her life while struggling madly. But seeing that Matthew remained unmoved, she couldn’t help but roar in fury:
“You foolish mortal! Stop this at once!”
“Don’t you want to know what you’re missing out on?!”
Tai Ji’s voice grew smaller and smaller, fading as Matthew wielded the power of time.
Her existence gradually faded into nothingness, disappearing into the depths of Matthew’s soul!
And Matthew’s soul began pushing forward through time.
One month.
Two months.
Three months!
At that point, Matthew hadn’t yet arrived in this world.
He was still drifting through the river of time, enduring its dreadful sing aru.
The terrifying forces tore at Matthew’s soul, battering him relentlessly.
Everything around him became a blur, a swirl of fleeting colors.
In the past, such a force would have shredded his fragile soul to pieces.
In fact, if it hadn’t been for Tai Ji’s desperate will to survive, using the st of her power to shield him from the crushing tides of time,
Matthew would never have made it into this world alive!
Now, though Matthew was still suffering greatly,
The time power within his soul protected him from harm.
As long as Matthew remained resolute, he would only experiehe pain of time’s passage.
But Tai Ji wasn’t so fortunate.
Once again, Matthew “pulled” her out from the depths of his soul.
Under her terrified gaze, Matthew withdrew the time power that had enveloped her.
Before Tai Ji could lu Matthew and burrow bato his soul,
Her remaining fragments were immobilized by the immense force of the river of time.
Then, without mercy, time itself ripped Tai Ji apart, tearing her into pieces.
“No…!”
The echo of her beastly roar became Tai Ji’s final words.
Watg as Tai Ji was obliterated, Matthew, enduring the agonizing pain, slowly reached out.
He grasped the st remaining thread of her essend watched it disappear into the river of time.
Afterward, an indescribable exhaustion and suffering overwhelmed Matthew.
He barely had enough strength to grab some paper and scribble down a few instrus, then threw it out of the chamber.
Then, Matthew slowly closed his eyes.
Along with Yaya, whose body was also undergoing ges, they both fell into a deep sleep.
On Matthew’s smooth forehead, a faint gloeared, flickering in and out of sight!
……
It was unclear how much time had passed.
Matthew regained awareness.
He tried to enter a meditative state but realized that there was nothing around him—not even himself.
Suddenly!
A fsh of light appeared.
A bolt of thunder cracked across the heavens, followed by a deafening roll of thunder.
Torrential rain fell in torrents, with ripples f ier from the spshes. Matthew saw a surge of crimson below!
Gurgle...
Gurgle...
Gurgle...
Boiling va spewed forth from the mouth of a volo.
The molten rock rushed with an intense heat from the earth's core, g violently uhe sea.
As the molten rock was cooled by the water, it turned into cold iron sg. Thick smoke rose, breaking through the water and tearing through its yers, entering the open sky.
At some point, Matthew’s earlier worries vanished, and he calmly watched the world shift and ge.
The raging thuhe surgihe billowing bck smoke, the unbearable heat.
Every moment brought new ges to the world—every sed a different view.
Time moved ever forward!
With a newfound sense of crity, Matthew began to "see" more of this barren world’s "transformations."
Some were far beyond his expectations, sparking his amazement.
Others firmed the memories in his mind, bringing a smile to his face.
The evolution of all things, the birth and in of life.
The once desote world slowly filled with vitality, and life blossomed, radiating ever more beautiful light.
Matthew slowly opened his eyes. He could now "see" not just time, but all things in the world!
And he could also see himself—everything was still there!
The data dispy was still funal.
His Arist abilities were unged.
Only his body had undergone signifit ges.
He had grown taller, now reag 1.9 meters.
Though he felt some hunger, his physique was much more imposing.
Matthew could feel the immense power hidden within his now stronger body.
