Chapter 2141: The Not-So-Insidious Clone
The attack that Kronos just launched, the attack that Lin Jiu saw in his mind, and the unknown attack that he suffered were actually the same ability.
The attack just now was launched by Kronos in the present, while the scene that Lin Jiu saw in his mind was a scene from the future, launched by Kronos a few seconds later. The unknown attack on Lin Jiu came from Kronos in the past.
This guy launched attacks from the past, present, and future at the same time. Knowing that the past cannot be changed, knowing that the future can be pursued. Facing the current attack, Lin Jiu can deal with it, and for the future attack, Lin Jiu can also predict the future scene fragments, so the "Lin Jiu" in the picture can dodge and block.
Knowing the future, he can make up for the changes, but the past cannot be reversed. Therefore, Lin Jiu cannot dodge attacks from the past and can only resist the damage caused by the attacks in the "present".
Skyrim!
Lin Jiu closed the distance between himself and Kronos, and swung the sword in his hand in an arc from the left, slashing from top to bottom. At this moment, the air seemed to freeze, everything was still, and only a dazzling silver-white light cut through the sky.
As the sword was swung, the surrounding space seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force. Tiny but deep spatial cracks spread rapidly like a spider web. They flashed with a mixture of dark blue and purple-black light, revealing a heart-pounding aura.
If Kronos dared to travel through the gap in time and space at this moment, the consequences would definitely be much more serious than being hit by Lin Jiu's sword. The "Sky" sword cut through space, and Lin Jiu mobilized the power of time to interfere with the flow of time around the sword.
Wherever the sword reached, the surroundings were silent, and then the air was compressed to the extreme and then suddenly released, erupting with a deafening roar, like the most violent thunder between heaven and earth, shaking people's minds.
The slash cut through the air, leaving not only a deep gully in the air, but also a space crack that was difficult to heal and lasted for a long time. The surrounding scenery was distorted by this blow, and the light became strange and unpredictable at this moment.
The moment Lin Jiu made his move, Kronos also moved. The mist around him began to twist and change. The originally black mist changed color, and a layer of strange dark purple mist enveloped Kronos. Time around him seemed to become slow and unstable at this moment. Everything around him, the trees, rocks, buildings, and even the air were slightly distorted.
The power of time collided with the space crack created by Lin Jiu, causing the space and time to vibrate. But this vibration was only a flash, after all, this was the seventh-order native world, and the space and time here was still very stable.
Afterwards, Kronos dodged Lin Jiu's several consecutive probing attacks, leaving him with many wounds and looking quite embarrassed. This was not surprising. The moment Lin Jiu was attacked by Kronos, he was marked with time, and Kronos could always predict the next few seconds. Lin Jiu's actions were under the control of the other party. It was impossible to touch Kronos without paying a high price.
A strange wave covered the battlefield, and Lin Jiu's figure disappeared from the spot. When he appeared beside Kronos, the Dawn Bird in his hand had been replaced by the White Warrior.
Become nothing!
A powerful destructive force was condensed on the tip of the White God of War's spear, and a black spot appeared on the tip of the spear. This black spot gave people the same feeling as the space crack that Lin Jiu had cut open before. This was the powerful destructive force that was compressed, creating a miniature black hole in the space. This spear stabbed Kronos tightly.
Kronos was shot because Lin Jiu used the Heaven's Chain to block other parts of his body. Kronos could see the consequences of being tied up by the Heaven's Chain. Being shot meant enduring an attack, and being controlled meant that he would be greeted by a set of smooth combos.
Seeing Kronos being shot, Lin Jiu immediately switched weapons. Kronos did not sit still and wait for death. Its sharp tentacles slashed towards Lin Jiu's throat like a knife, and two tentacles stabbed towards his body.
Lin Jiu escaped the danger of throat injury, but still had two more holes on his body. But it was not a big problem. After Kronos was shot by the White Warrior, it was time to counterattack.
At the moment when the Dawn Bird was unsheathed, time and space seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible force, and the surrounding area fell into an unprecedented solidified state. In this solidified time and space, there was no sound, no movement, and endless tranquility and eternity.
Only a dazzling silver-white light, like a white rainbow piercing the sun, penetrated Kronos' body. After Kronos endured the White Warrior's shot, his ability to be immune to the time control effect was temporarily broken by the White Warrior, so Lin Jiu's "Epiphyllum" could naturally be used at this time.
The scene at this moment is that the time demon who controls the power of time is stopped by the enemy.
Lin Jiu thrust his sword through Kronos' body, and the impact caused him to crash to the ground. Lin Jiu was about to connect with the side kick of the Sky Mist Boots skill, but suddenly he felt something and did not connect with the combo.
As expected, the next moment, Kronos in front of him turned into a shadow, and the power of time enveloped him. Under the cover of the power of time, this guy's state was rapidly retracing, and Lin Jiu was naturally very familiar with this situation. However, this time retracing ability was a life-saving ability for Lin Jiu, but it seemed to be just a skill used to restore the state for Kronos.
What made Lin Jiu breathe a sigh of relief was that the mark of fortune on Kronos did not disappear as time went back, but still existed.
After Kronos recovered, a time vortex opened up around him. Lin Jiu could feel the time flow in his area starting to solidify, and his speed became very slow. Kronos also gave him a time acceleration effect. In just a few seconds, Lin Jiu was left with multiple scars. The heaviest wound pierced Lin Jiu's chest, just a fraction away from his heart.
Kronos's condition recovered, while Lin Jiu's health continued to decline. When Kronos appeared in front of Lin Jiu again, his sure-shot attack missed. At the same time, the Sky Chain with soul shackles attached to it firmly bound him in place.
The moment is impermanent!
The soul damage caused by Lin Jiu's sword that penetrated Kronos exploded. In the battle, Lin Jiu had already judged that this Kronos time node clone had rich combat experience and could display his abilities very smoothly, but it was not the same clone as Lin Jiu's reincarnation clone after all, and lacked some spirituality. To be precise, it lacked the cunning and insidiousness of being a demon.
Lin Jiu, who was constantly injured, made Kronos accustomed to relying on foresight to predict Lin Jiu's combat behavior and to effectively counterattack. When Kronos got used to this rhythm, Lin Jiu used the power of time to interfere with its foresight ability, and then Kronos naturally fell into the trap set by Lin Jiu.
Kronos also realized that he had been fooled at this moment, and the power of time enveloped him again, and he began to go back in time. Just as Lin Jiu expected, the skill he used as a life-saving ability, in Kronos's hands, was the ability to recover.
However, Lin Jiu would naturally not let the other party achieve his goal. The power of time he possessed was continuously output. He did not need to suppress Kronos' power, he only needed to interfere.
