Jiang Mengyue's life was full of ups and downs, with several close calls, betrayal by her best friend, being surrounded and killed, and even being captured by evil cultivators to be used as a furnace. But she managed to overcome all of these challenges, making her life truly legendary.
Or rather, every demigod has a relatively legendary life. In Kyushu, true gods are not prominent, so demigods are the most important figures.
Watching her grow up little by little, step by step, and witnessing the changes that time has brought about in her, Fang Xiu felt a sense of enlightenment. He seemed to understand the meaning of time more and more. How great time is, that it can transform an ordinary person into a demigod who can dominate the world.
But just then...
A thunderclap seemed to resound from the depths of the sky, and waves surged on the river of fate, rushing towards Fang Xiu.
Pfft!
Fang Xiu spat out a mouthful of blood, which soaked Jiang Mengyue's white underwear, making her look like a blooming and beautiful plum blossom.
"Fate has turned against us!"
A hidden undercurrent was surging beneath his calm eyes.
"Those who peek into destiny will eventually suffer its backlash. However, this should be because my cultivation level is too low. I used the power of a true immortal to peek into the past of a demigod, so I suffered the backlash."
He looked down at his body. His once indestructible immortal body was now covered with countless cracks, like a mirror. His life force was rapidly draining away. He... was going to die.
"Ha, a mere fatal wound? I'll absorb the pain!"
Fang Xiu immediately activated his ability, but the cracks on his body did not disappear at all.
This made him frown. "Time reversal!"
He tried to use the power of time to reverse time and return to his pre-injury state, but he failed again.
"Is that so again? Fate truly is a branch of time. As expected, my current level of time is not enough to influence fate."
He recalled the same situation he encountered when he resurrected Zhou Qingfeng.
Finally, everything went black before Fang Xiu's eyes, and he died completely.
......
......
"It has to be a death rollback; its power far exceeds the time manipulation I can control."
With the activation of the death rollback, the traces of fate's backlash on Fang Xiu's body dissipated, and everything was as if it had never happened.
However, he indirectly controlled the backlash of fate by using his ability to manifest pain, thus adding another trump card to his deck.
Since exhausting its power of faith, Saint Eye, though still very powerful, has lost the ability to kill Immortal Emperors, and has been reduced from a trump card to a regular means.
But now things are different; he has a new killing move: the backlash of fate!
A divine power of fate that even time reversal cannot undo.
Although its current power is not as great as the previous Holy Eye, it is more troublesome. Once it is hit by the backlash of fate, it can only rely on its own destiny to withstand it. If it can withstand it, it will live; if it cannot, it will die.
It's like a virus without a vaccine. Once you get infected, you rely entirely on your own immunity. If your immunity is strong enough, you will live; if not, you will die. Taking medicine, getting injections, and getting IV drips are all ineffective against it.
Having acquired a new ability, Fang Xiu naturally wanted to test its power, so he set his sights on Jiang Mengyue again. There was nothing he could do about it, since she was so close to him.
"What...what are you going to do!" Jiang Mengyue asked in a panic. Even a demigod would panic in the face of a true god's malicious gaze.
"Pain manifests. Fate turns against you!"
The next moment, Jiang Mengyue's face turned pale, and she subconsciously groaned in pain. She felt unbearable pain and her body felt weak, as if she had started menstruating.
Fang Xiu frowned slightly. There wasn't even a crack on the other party's body. It seemed that the demigod's destiny was too high, and he was able to withstand this level of backlash from fate.
Thinking about it, it makes sense. If a person's destiny isn't high enough, how could they possibly become a demigod? They would have perished long ago.
Therefore, it's not that demigods have high destiny, but rather that one must first have a high enough destiny to have the opportunity to become a demigod.
This means that the backlash of fate is not very effective when dealing with enemies with high cultivation levels, because high cultivation levels mean high destiny.
Even when dealing with enemies of low cultivation but high destiny, the backlash of fate will not have much effect, such as the current Heavenly Mandate - Yang Ming.
Fang Xiu even suspected that if he used the backlash of fate against Yang Ming, he might end up being the one who suffers the consequences.
He had thought that the backlash of fate could be his trump card, but he didn't expect it to be so restrictive. However, he was not displeased at all. On the contrary, he felt the value of the backlash of fate because... the backlash of fate could grow.
If peeking into the past of a demigod resulted in such a fatal backlash, what about peeking into the future?
It is important to understand that in the art of divination, predicting the future is far more difficult than in the past, because the past is fixed and leaves traces in the world, but the future is uncertain and can change in an instant.
Therefore, predicting the future is the most difficult and the easiest to suffer from the backlash of fate, especially when you try to defy fate.
Gradually, Fang Xiu had an idea in his mind: if he could predict the future of the demigod Jiang Mengyue beyond his level, or even take action to change and influence the future, he would inevitably suffer a greater backlash from fate.
then......
The Art of Celestial Evolution: Predicting the Future!
boom!
He saw that vast river of fate again, his gaze spanning the past, present, and future, finally settling on Jiang Mengyue.
In a daze, he saw Jiang Mengyue tomorrow, still motionless in the ice coffin with him, and the day after tomorrow would be the same.
Until the sixth day!
The future scene finally changed. With a bang, the ice coffin shattered, the moon palace was destroyed, and Jiang Mengyue and Li Xinghe escaped.
They fought against themselves, but they activated their ethereal form and were no longer afraid of demigods. Then the two of them started fighting.
