Hijacking the Timeline

Translator: CinderTL

Before his death, the Lord of the Mist had carved the operational trajectory of the flesh cauldron into the earth before him.

This trajectory had been recorded by the scarlet squad during their rescue mission.

After awakening, Feng Qi had also attempted to cultivate the Flesh Cauldron technique, meticulously memorizing its trajectory.

Now, facing the relentless assault of Little Cripple and the other intelligent domain creatures, Feng Qi's situation was dire. He immediately considered whether he could use the flesh cauldron to plunder the flesh and blood of these creatures.

However, a critical problem stood before him.

This issue was of paramount importance, and mishandling it could have catastrophic consequences for humanity's future.

Any creature he killed and absorbed with the sacrificial blood mist would be completely erased from existence across the multiverse, leaving no trace behind.

Feng Qi was now certain that humanity had been completely wiped out in the Star City region. However, he couldn't guarantee whether humans still survived in other cities.

If humans in other cities had also practiced the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice in timelines after his death, activating the flesh cauldron would doom them as well, completely erasing their existence.

As the Narrator had warned, no trace of their existence would remain in future timelines.

For example, if A practiced the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice and B was A's descendant, killing B would ensure that B would never exist in any future timeline.

Even if A were to conceive B again in another timeline, there would only be two possible outcomes:

1. Miscarriage: Because B's life no longer exists, the pregnancy would only result in a mass of unconscious, dead flesh.

2. The birth of a new life, C, but one that would bear no resemblance to the B from the previous timeline.

The consequences of causal annihilation were terrifying.

When the Lord of the Mist snapped his fingers, he annihilated all life practicing the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice across a single timeline.

However, it's highly probable that his snap completely erased all traces of these beings from the multiverse.

A vision flashed through his mind:

In other cities, human survivors were engulfed in crimson flames after his snap. Their flesh and blood were consumed by the fire, transforming into qi blood.

The thought made him hesitate.

Without knowing if any humans remained in other cities, activating the flesh cauldron would be an irresponsible act.

There's still a chance. The previous timeline showed that after the Lord of the Mist snapped his fingers, he chose to lie dormant in this region, waiting for sacrificial blood mist from other areas to arrive. Digesting offerings from across the world clearly requires time. If you snap your fingers now, you likely wouldn't even finish absorbing the offerings within Star City before Little Black kills you.

After hearing the Narrator's explanation, he couldn't help but nod.

The Narrator's analysis was indeed logical.

If he could die before the sacrificial blood mist arrived from other cities, he wouldn't have to worry about annihilating any humans that might exist there.

After all, the essence of his annihilation was absorbing the blood mist and extracting its innate abilities.

With this thought, an idea immediately surfaced in his mind.

First, snap his fingers to kill Little Cripple and the other domain creatures, then decisively end his own life to prevent any further consequences.

Just as he was about to act, the Narrator's voice rang out again:

Don't get too excited. The memory overlap might have made you forget something. While you can cultivate the flesh cauldron in the Sacrifice Line, your body in the main timeline has an extremely special constitution that makes cultivation impossible. The flesh cauldron isn't just an art magic; it's a cultivation technique!

Hearing the Narrator's explanation, Feng Qi suddenly understood.

If the Narrator hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten that he couldn't cultivate in the main timeline.

Still, he decided to try.

His body was still under constant attack from Little Cripple. Enduring the pain, he closed his eyes.

The cultivation technique of the flesh cauldron began to circulate within Feng Qi's body, crimson specks of light tracing intricate paths guided by his consciousness.

As the pathways formed, a cultivation vortex materialized.

Drawn by the vortex, spiritual energy from the outside world seeped into his body.

The core of the flesh cauldron technique lay in condensing a blood core within the body, and Feng Qi was now attempting this crucial step.

The spiritual energy gradually transformed into a thin blood mist within his body. As the pathways continued to circulate, the mist slowly coalesced, its color deepening with each rotation.

Crack!

Just as Feng Qi believed he was about to complete the blood core condensation, a crisp shattering sound echoed in his mind.

The blood core, formed from the coalesced blood mist, shattered into fragments.

Oh, well, that's no fun. In the Sacrifice Line, you could at least snap your fingers and trigger World Destruction, but in the Reality Line, you're completely out of luck. Your unique constitution simply can't accommodate any growth methods beyond hunting.

Feng Qi regretfully opened his eyes.

Spotting Little Cripple charging toward him, he abruptly opened his mouth and bit down hard.

Little Cripple's kick landed squarely on Feng Qi's neck, while Feng Qi successfully clamped his teeth around Little Cripple's leg.

Feng Qi's sudden attack caught Little Cripple completely off guard.

With a violent jerk of his head, Feng Qi tore a chunk of flesh from Little Cripple's leg.

Little Cripple let out a bloodcurdling scream, his body staggering backward.

Feng Qi had never been one to sit and wait for death. He believed that only by struggling and fighting against overwhelming odds could one hope to find a glimmer of hope.

With the Blood Source Form's duration dwindling, he decided to make one final, desperate gamble.

No big deal. If you lose, just kick the "dead version" of Little Cripple in the Dream Realm next time to vent your anger. After all these timelines, can't you let Little Cripple win just once?

Ignoring the Narrator's snide remark, Feng Qi held his breath and channeled his strength, the veins on his body bulging violently.

His power surged rapidly as he gathered energy, his heart pounding like an engine revving at full throttle.

The dense Qi and Blood Power surged through his veins in sync with each heartbeat, flooding his entire body.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The heavy thudding of his heart reverberated even outside his body.

Sensing Feng Qi's rapidly escalating power, the domain creature restraining him from behind abruptly tightened its grip.

But this time, Little Cripple wasn't there to interfere.

In a pure contest of brute strength, Feng Qi in his Blood Source Form clearly held the advantage.

With a savage roar, he tore free one of the arms binding him from behind, then seized the other and executed a brutal over-the-shoulder throw.

The Narrator's voice chimed in:

The Three Laws of Combat: Kill the damage dealers first, kill the squishies first, kill the controllers first. You know the drill!

Hearing this, Feng Qi, who was about to continue his assault, didn't hesitate. He immediately turned and lunged at the domain creature wrapped in bandages, which could manipulate gravity.

This domain creature possessed an exceptionally unique ability.

If he didn't eliminate it first, his movements would be severely restricted.

His earlier inability to break free from the restraints was largely due to the bandage creature's gravity control and Little Cripple's relentless attacks.

Faced with Feng Qi's sudden advance, the bandage-wrapped domain creature's expression turned to shock.

In the next moment, Feng Qi grabbed its head with one hand and slammed it violently against the ground.

The bandages covering the domain creature's body suddenly unraveled, revealing the withered form beneath. The bandages then rapidly extended, attempting to re-entangle Feng Qi and immobilize him.

But the restraint lasted only a few seconds. The dark green flames burning across Feng Qi's body ignited the bandages, rapidly corroding and discoloring them.

Boom!

As the bandages snapped apart, Feng Qi slammed the withered domain creature's head heavily against the ground.

Like a watermelon smashing against the ground at high speed, a milky-white liquid mixed with red splattered everywhere.

This domain creature possessed formidable abilities, but its defensive capabilities were woefully weak.

As the Narrator would have put it:

I can afford countless mistakes, but you only get one.

As the crimson blood mist surged into his body, Feng Qi felt a surge of invigorating energy coursing through him.
