Chapter 649: Chapter 357_2

“Roar——!!”
In the midst of the Dragon’s Chant, silvery-white Dragon Thunder scattered across its body amidst crackling sounds, flashes of electricity flickering, coalescing in front of its mouth, transforming into the Silver Dragon Thunder Light Cannon.
“Hum——”
The light cannon burst out like Dragon Breath, rippling across the forests and the earth.
Wherever the light cannon passed, the forest instantly vanished like a pencil drawing erased by a rubber, plants and trees disappearing, leaving a deep trough carved into the ground with silver-white electric arcs still crackling loudly.
Then, Xue Jing’s thoughts moved once again.
The reversed dragon underwent a change, it’s dark silver body began to transform, scales slightly opening, resembling an explosion of scales, with faint glows of Red Gold Flame Thunder leaking from the gaps.@@novelbin@@
The dragon horns atop its head also changed, twisting into sharp spirals, identical to the dragon horns when Xue Jing used the Red Gold Flame Thunder form.
The reversed dragon opened its jaws wide, this time Red Gold Flame Thunder gathered and compressed in front of the mouth, accompanied by the sound of the Dragon’s Chant, the enormous Flame Thunder Light Cannon spewed forth, plowing through the forest once again.
All the birds and beasts in the forest either accidentally became charred by the impact or fled desperately for their lives, the rustling noises were tremendous.
“Ah, not bad.”
Xue Jing nodded his head.
The ability to change forms is an extension of the Dragon Horn, and the reversed dragon can also use both Dragon Thunder and Destruction Flame Thunder, with the power surpassing that of Xue Jing himself.
The body would also undergo changes during the shift of forms.
Just like Physical Strength, the power is proportional to the size of the reversed dragon; the larger it is, the higher the power of the Dragon Thunder and Flame Thunder, and the greater the consumption.
In the future, if there’s a chance for the Dragon Horn to absorb ‘special Divinity,’ it’s speculation that it would increase its ability to transform further.
Besides ‘form changing,’ another ability was the key point.
Xue Jing called it—’Time Rewind.’
He controlled the reversed dragon to stop in midair, then leaped down from the dragon’s head to the ground below in the forest.
The reversed dragon also shrunk to the size of a kitten and flew onto Xue Jing’s shoulder, coming to a rest.
Xue Jing looked around, locked onto a big tree, and extended his right hand forming a blade, slashing diagonally in one swift motion.
At first, the tree showed no response; then, after a few seconds, the severed trunk slowly slid down, crashing to the ground with a thunderous noise.
The cut was extremely smooth, as if sliced by an incredibly thin line.
Xue Jing carelessly lifted the nearly ten-meter-tall tree, whose diameter was thicker than a man, and flung it mightily forward!
With a whoosh, the tree flew forward like an artillery shell, reaching well beyond a hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
At that moment, the golden pupils of the reversed dragon on Xue Jing’s shoulder shone brightly.
The rapidly flying tree immediately stopped midair as if the physical law of inertia ceased to exist. It went from 100 to a standstill in an instant, with absolutely no deceleration.
It was as though the video had been paused.
Then, the tree flew backward at the same speed it had come, extremely fast!
Along its path, every movement trajectory, down to the detail, without a nanometer of error, replicated the forward motion exactly.
Even the minute speed changes caused by air resistance during its forward journey were flawlessly reversed back to their original state.
“Time Rewind.”
Xue Jing stretched out his hand to catch the large tree returning to his palm, murmuring.
The effect of this ability is simple.
It could reverse the entire material motion trajectory of a moving object, creating a phenomenon similar to time going backward.
…Or rather, it was undoubtedly Time Rewind itself.
Time is simply a scalar that records material motion; reversing material motion is unquestionably ‘Time Rewind.’
However, this ‘Time Rewind’ is limited to a particular independent object and is not a reverse of material motion for the entire world.
“This ability is strong… but it all depends on how it’s used.”
Xue Jing’s eyes showed contemplation.
This power reminded him of the ‘Material Motion Reversal’ skill from the Tears of the Kingdom of Zelda.
It goes without saying that its auxiliary functions are not mentioned, although the greater the kinetic energy and inertia, the higher the consumption of Time Rewind, but in an evenly matched battle, even if the effect is merely a momentary pause for the opponent, it could be a key factor that influences the outcome.
Of course, that’s just the crudest way to use it.
“`
This ability could be used for offense, and of all Xue Jing’s powers, it was the strongest in terms of sheer attack power, bar none.
However, using it required some finesse…
Xue Jing glanced at the large tree in his hand, waved his hand, and split it in two.
He held one half, laid it flat in his hand, walked forward in a straight line for a few steps, then placed it on the ground.
He then returned to his original position and applied the power of reversal to it.
The half of the tree on the ground immediately began to move, as if an invisible transparent person was carrying it. It first floated into the air and then slowly flew towards Xue Jing’s position.
At this point, Xue Jing lifted the other half of the tree, placing it in the path of the other half as it ‘reversed back’ towards its original location.
“Crack—”
Without the slightest hesitation, Xue Jing felt an unstoppable force transmitted to his hands; the half-tree he was lifting was directly smashed apart, and the half that was reversing back continued along its original trajectory in an unstoppable motion, returning to its original location.
“The trajectory of material reversal is unstoppable… no amount of strength can stop it.”
Xue Jing picked up the wood again, tossed it out, and then applied the reversal power to make it return the same way.
This time, he simply raised his hand and blocked its path.
The wood crumbled to pieces upon contact with his palm, slowly getting flattened and crushed, until it eventually dissipated into nothingness.
“However, due to the limitations of its own physical strength, while the trajectory is unstoppable, it will shatter when it comes into contact with a substance whose strength far exceeds its own due to the unstoppable motion.”
Xue Jing’s eyes gradually brightened.
“This means that an object with a strength of 1, when reversed, will inevitably penetrate all materials with a strength less than 1 on its path.”
“So…”
Xue Jing reached into the invisible void, slowly pulling out an ancient and beautiful long knife.
GOD-519·The Blade That Never Dulls.
Its power was—Eternal Indestructibility.
Theoretical strength—Infinite.
“Am I invincible now?”
Xue Jing pinched his chin.
With The Blade That Never Dulls, Zhao Ye, at his disposal, all he had to do was throw it out and then apply the reversal power to it. With its eternal indestructibility and the absolutely unstoppable trajectory of reversal, wouldn’t it be theoretically capable of penetrating all matter in the world?
Moreover, there was another ability that could cause a qualitative change in the use of this power…
Feather Transformation.
After Zhao Ye underwent Feather Transformation, it could carve out any trajectory in the air like a flying sword.
What was originally just a simple use of ‘throwing out’ and ‘reversing back’ became a highly versatile method that could carve out any trajectory at will.
“Holy crap, I really am invincible.”
Xue Jing’s eyes widened slightly.
If he had obtained this ability earlier, would Shen Tuguang even matter? Would he have needed to scheme so hard?
He would have just let him understand what the laws of physics meant.
The only problem was that it would be a bit odd to set up this move. He would have to make Zhao Ye fly backward, using the hilt to pretend to stab someone… Only then, during the reversal back, would the blade be leading.
“Awesome!”
Having gained a new mighty weapon, Xue Jing was in a great mood and soared into the sky with a jump.
The Dragon’s Chant resonated as the Dragon Thunder morphed into dozens of meters in size instantly, catching him on its head.
“Boom—”
Within the roaring and gusty sounds of its wings flapping, the dark silver dragon headed back toward Silver City.
…
Silver City, Zhige Base.
In a room, Ning Yuantai and the captain of the Six Five Squadron, Yang Yingyu, along with the deputy captain Zhuang Qiu, and a middle-aged man with a refined face, sat together.
Ning Yuantai sighed, “Mr. Zhang, I’m afraid you made a mistake this time.”
…
What do you think?
