Chapter 202 Advanced Time Stop
Giant Wilderness.

With a torn portal, Sean appeared out of thin air in this vast wilderness. A half-real and half-virtual ball of light appeared in his palm, engraved with countless runes of knowledge, and surrounded by soul-soothing mantras to prevent them from activating and becoming evil. Before the laws of the weird kingdom were corrected, things created by Sean that were infused with too much knowledge might also be activated and distorted. He had to ensure that tools were always tools.

A projection of a map emerged, with densely packed teleportation nodes on it. Thousands of teleportation nodes were marked on the entire planet. This was the map drawn by Sean through the Tower of Knowledge.

Strictly speaking, it is a star map, but currently only the main teleportation points of a planet are marked.

"This is it."

Xiao En raised his hand slightly, and dozens of reconnaissance magic eyes flew in all directions. There were no real giants in the Giant Wilderness anymore. There were only underground ruins left before the Dark Ages, but most of the giant corpses had been dug up by people on the Path of Death.

The era of the Giant Court in the multiverse was very short, while the Age of Dragons was longer, until the Elf Empire completely overwhelmed the Dragon Court.

The rise of mankind basically happened after the era of ancient gods came to an end.

found it.

The advanced reconnaissance magic eye monitored everything within a radius of dozens of kilometers, and soon a wandering giant figure was seen in Xiao En's mental network.

——Many-armed Giant [Evil Creature] [Flesh Aberration] [Earth] (CR 22)? !

This monster is about twelve meters tall, not very big compared to other flesh and blood deformities. Its hideous head is covered with a thick stratum corneum, and its six thick arms are piled on its upper body, making it look very bloated. Its rough gray skin is covered with hard rock armor with many spikes on the surface. Because its upper body is too burly, its head seems to be sunken, and it looks like a muscular freak who works out without training his legs.

This is an evil creature born from the remains of the Stone Mother.

This multi-armed giant possesses powerful spell-like abilities. They can cast gravity spells, and their strength can continue to grow when they stand on the ground, up to a strength attribute of nearly 45 points. However, as long as their feet leave the ground, they will be knocked back to their original form.

This kind of evil creature is considered the lowest-end version of the hundred-armed giant. They have a very small chance of being promoted to become divine evil by devouring divinity.

——Skinning (8th level spell)!

Xiao En raised his hand and pointed. The next second, the multi-armed giant in front of him let out a shrill scream. Its skin and flesh peeled off its body bit by bit. The skinning brought it unimaginable pain, and also made its natural armored skin lose some of its function. The multi-armed giant has a very high damage reduction and elemental resistance. Skinning is very useful against enemies with natural armored skin, and it can severely damage the opponent's physical attributes.

——Spell Sequencer!

After the monster entered his killing line, Xiao En activated the spell sequencer without hesitation. In an instant, three spells launched multiple attacks on the enemy. In the blink of an eye, a legendary evil creature was killed by him.

Xiao En now had some understanding of why the Sons of Slaughter were able to kill their way through so many countries. After his abilities were fully formed, killing regular legendary creatures was as easy as killing chickens and dogs.

To deal with such a monster, he didn't even need to use time stop.

“Refine the extraordinary relic!”

"You have gained the bonus feat [Strong]!"

"You have obtained the legendary expertise [Legendary Strength LV1]!"

Xiao En came here to complete his expertise, because he still needs to face a very powerful enemy when he is promoted to a demigod, that is, the mastermind of the mind flayer fleet. If he is a transcendent of the arcane path, he can be ready to be promoted to a demigod now, but he is a dual cultivator of arcane and mind, which means he needs double the materials for the promotion ceremony. There is no particularly powerful mind flayer tribe in the weird country. If you want to hunt down a psychic master at the mastermind level, you must go into outer space to search for Su En's mind flayer fleet.

——"Strong: You gain an extremely strong physique, and each level of extraordinary power increases your health limit by 1 point. The maximum increase in health limit is 40 points."

——"Legendary Robustness LV1: You activate your latent life potential, permanently increasing your upper limit of life by 20 points, up to a maximum of 200 points." (Prerequisite: Extraordinary Constitution.)
What is most abundant in the weird kingdom is flesh and blood and creatures with distorted laws of life.

Therefore, the health bars of the legendary strong men here are very thick, and the human extraordinary men directly seize the flesh and blood and life laws of monsters to master the legendary strong abilities.

Xiao En's hunt has just begun.

Because the upper limit of legendary strength is 10 levels, and there is no telling how many flesh and blood evil creatures there are in this giant wilderness, it is already very good for him to be able to replenish half of them.

The day passed quickly.

Xiao En's hunting was not very smooth. It was not that he could not kill those evil creatures with deformed flesh and blood, but most of the monsters with legendary and powerful abilities were in the inner world. However, he collected a lot of conventional extraordinary relics.

"Incorporate the [Fitness] feat into the Astra Militarum's transformation plan."

A ball of flowing data appeared in Xiao En's palm. He calmly recorded his thoughts: "Add the deformed creatures of the flesh and blood side and the giant bloodline to the hunting task list of the Mechanical Heart Traveler."

"The Space Marine's transformation surgery was combined with the extraordinary relic of [Legendary Robustness]."

"Notify Doctor Monster."

"Set up a hidden teleportation array in the Giant Wilderness."

After all this was done, Xiao En opened the star map again, and soon disappeared from the spot, appearing in a volcanic area with chaotic elements.

——Decomposer-Menglis [Evil] [Elemental Chaos] (CR 21)! ?

This is a humanoid figure about five meters tall. Unlike other elemental life forms, it is a twisted and unstable mixture. Within its body, the four elements of water, fire, earth and air are constantly changing. Its head is flame, its body is air, its waist and abdomen are soil, and its arms are water. This strange elemental life form is Mengris, also a creation of elemental chaos.

Mengris's touch causes the target creature to separate into its component elements, or fail its saving throw as if it were hit by a disintegrate spell.

Wherever this evil creature appears, the nearby elements will be in chaos.

——Mind Spike (1st level psychic) ​​(extreme psychic effect) (strong psychic effect) (double psychic effect)!

Xiao En entered a state of concentrated psychic energy in an instant. With a touch of his fingertips, the next second the decomposer in front of him, Mengris, suddenly had his brain exploded, and the entire body of Elemental Chaos began to fall apart. It didn't even last half a second before it was killed on the spot by Xiao En.

Instant kill!

Strictly speaking, Sean also had the ability to kill the multi-armed giant in seconds, but that monster had the Stone Heart Talent and was immune to many psychic abilities, so he used a more traditional fighting method.

Xiao En is actually not sure how strong his mind spikes are now, because it seems that except for the descendants of the Old Ones, there are not many enemies who can withstand his mind spikes. If it weren't for the fact that many descendants of the Old Ones are immune to psychic abilities, Xiao En can probably try to kill some weaker gods, ancient evils and descendants of the Old Ones in seconds.

The upper limit of this spell is very high. At around Extraordinary Level 40, it can cause around 1000 points of psychic damage.

Mind Spike (1st-level Psionics): You deliver a swift, devastating psychic blow to the mind of any creature, dealing 1d10 points of psychic damage. Power cost: 1.

灵能增幅：每额外支付1灵能点，本灵能的伤害增加1d10点。每增加2d10点额外伤害，本灵能的豁免难度增加1。

Super magic ability blessing: double shot, extreme effect, strong effect. "

A very simple psychic spell.

Before it was promoted to Legend, its lethality was not very strong, because the fluctuation value was too large, between 1-10, it was easy to have a very low damage effect. But after it had the Psychic Power Extreme, it was different, it could be solidified into 1 point of Psychic Power causing 10 points of Psychic Damage, and after the Strong Power was added, it was fixed that 1 point of Psychic Power caused 15 points of Psychic Damage.

The final decisive effect is how much psychic energy Xiao En can output at one time. When the psychic energy is concentrated, he does not actively trigger the upper limit overload, which is about 300 points of psychic damage, and the consumption is approximately equal to that of a 9th-level spell.

However, this only counts the single damage, and the double psychic attack is a copy of the same power spell, so Xiao En's psychic spikes have a one-time explosion of about 600 points of psychic damage. If an ordinary ancient evil creature fails to save, it is estimated that it will die on the spot, and its head will explode into pieces of meat.

As long as the enemy is not immune to psychic damage, Xiao En can cause more than 10,000 points of psychic explosion output while continuously casting psychic spikes. At present, Xiao En does not know which monster has such high vitality, and the regular ancient evil creature is estimated to be unable to withstand a few hits.

However, this spell also has an obvious weakness, which is that it requires a Willpower saving throw. If the saving throw is successful, the spell will be completely ineffective.

——Elemental Aggregate [Evil Thing] [Elemental Chaos] (CR 20)? !

After killing the target and obtaining the extraordinary relic he needed, Xiao En suddenly found that another legendary monster emerged from the magma of the volcano, so he raised his hand and fired another mind spike, and the enemy's head instantly exploded into pieces.

Since you are here, just do it casually.

After killing two evil creatures in one breath, Sean flew towards the direction of the whirlpool. On the way, he saw a fountain hundreds of meters high rising into the sky, and a huge monster floating on the sea that looked like a giant whale from the star realm.

——Son of Leviathan [Son of Hatred] [Divine Creature] (CR 23)? !

This is a little troublesome.

It took Xiao En two Mind Spikes to kill it, and he also gained a few points of divinity.

Most of the ritual materials for the promotion of demigods are legendary monsters, and only the core elements require the remains of the descendants of the old days. For Xiao En now, these enemies are nothing more than a matter of one or two mind spikes. If there are more followers, he will consider changing a spell to cleanse the ground.

After being promoted to a high-level legend and mastering the "Legendary Psychic Focus", Xiao En was not sure how strong he was.

Because apart from facing that old battle, he has not yet tested his limits.

then.

Xiao En thought of a good way to test his combat effectiveness, which was to challenge a star fleet of Suen's Mind Flayers alone, not an interstellar battleship, because destroying an interstellar battleship was just a piece of cake for him. He had to challenge an interstellar fleet alone to test his true strength.

And he also needs to go to outer space.

Sean spent a week collecting other ritual materials for ascending to demigodhood.

Xiao En then began to arrange the affairs of the Mechanical Heart. At the same time, he entered the long river of time and space and exchanged the divine relics gained from the battle for a core legendary spell from the Time Dragon.

——"Greater Time Stop [Legendary Spell]: You fight against the sands of time, causing everything in the world to stop in the flow of time, except yourself. While the spell lasts, other areas of the world are suspended, as if stagnant, and you can move freely, casting spells, moving, attacking, etc. When the spell's effective time ends, the flow of time continues to flow normally."

This is when time really stops.

Xiao En currently does not know how strong its effect is, because it manipulates the flow of time rather than an extreme acceleration state.

"How big is the range of this time stop?"

"A plane? A planet? Or a crystal-wall universe?"

This is the most confusing question for Xiao En at the moment. Analyzing the flow of time is very difficult even for him now. However, according to the Time Dragon's description of this legendary spell, it seems that in the process of time stopping, the whole world is in a state of complete stillness.

This made Xiao En wonder, is a legendary time spell really that powerful?

Can it pause a world or a universe?
The legendary spell of advanced time stop is extremely difficult to analyze. Xiao En's progress in mastering it is very slow in a short period of time, and he always feels that the description of this spell is a little wrong. Just stopping a planet is beyond human power.

"This time spell must have a secret that I don't know, and it is the key to mastering this legendary spell."

Xiao En began to stack various BUFF states on himself.

——Polarized cognition.

He didn't know how long it had been, but he suddenly seemed to realize something in a flash of inspiration, and muttered, "It's not that the flow of time has stopped. This description is misleading. Strictly speaking, it allows oneself to transcend the flow of time and have an extra period of time!"

"So during this extra period of time, everything in the outside world is still, even the entire universe is still!"

The flow of time throughout the universe has not changed, it has not been paused in any real sense.

It's just that in the process of jumping from one second to two seconds, Sean's existence transcended the flow of time through this legendary spell. He fought against the sand of time, so the world's timeline remained at that progress, but in the gap in time, Sean got an extra period of time.

The extra time he had was the truth that the whole world was suspended!

Other people's day is 24 hours, but after casting this legendary spell, Sean's day is 24 hours and 6 seconds, so in the extra six seconds he has, the whole world stops.

In an instant!
The mysterious knowledge in my brain began to run wildly.

"Analysis of the legendary spell [Advanced Time Stop]!..."

"Spell identification passed! ... The current analysis progress is 73%! ... You have gained a little understanding of the time domain! ..."

"All your time spells are enhanced by the laws of the domain!"

"You sensed the laws of time flow."

Grains of light golden sand appeared at Sean's fingertips. They seemed to appear out of thin air, like a translucent hourglass, with grains of sand of time constantly flowing down.

This is his extra time, time outside the flow of time, the power unique to the law of time.

"I roughly guessed how the Mind Flayer Empire traveled from the future to the past."

In Xiao En's eyes, a ray of brilliant golden light emerged, and the power of the immortal divinity was transforming. The origin of the divinity began to merge with the laws of time, allowing him to see the possibility of traveling through time and space. It was a power very close to the 'Deification of Time' of the ancient Time Dragon.

Even his ability of "death replay", Xiao En knew where this ability came from.

time flies.

A piece of nothingness tore apart the laws of space.

Xiao En's figure took a step out from the astronomical table, and the next second he appeared in outer space. In his field of vision was a galaxy nearly the size of the solar system. He broke through the gray fog that enveloped the entire Holy Terra and entered the universe of a distant country for the first time.

——Transform into a spirit!
Xiao En's figure gradually faded, and he began to roam the entire galaxy at a speed close to sub-light speed, while recording the cosmic space landmarks in the star map.

Although the effects of flying spells will be greatly enhanced after entering outer space, the best way to roam a galaxy is to move in astral form. In the astral state, the mass is infinitely close to zero, and it can be accelerated to a level close to sub-light speed.

But if you plan to travel across galaxies and the universe, the spiritual state is not enough, and you can only use space beacons to directly traverse to other space nodes.
