Hijacking the Timeline

Boom!

A deafening roar shook the air as shattered stone rained down.

The stone giant, towering over ten meters tall, staggered backward several steps under Feng Qi’s full-force assault. Its massive body tilted precariously before crashing to the ground with a thunderous impact.

Feng Qi landed steadily beside the fallen giant.

His innate ability, ”Blood Source,” remained his most practical asset in his current state. Its only drawback was its limited duration, lasting approximately ten minutes per use.

Seizing the remaining time, he lunged at the stone giant again.

Emerald flames erupted from his massive fist, while the purple soul markings on his body seemed to come alive, swirling across his skin and emitting an eerie violet glow.

The stone giant struggled to rise, but Feng Qi’s second punch landed swiftly.

This devastating blow struck like a mountain-splitting axe, slamming into the giant’s head.

Shattered stone flew in all directions as the giant’s head snapped to the side. Its colossal body slid three meters across the ground, only stopping when it crashed into the ruins of a building.

The impact site on the giant’s head turned charred black, with emerald sparks still flickering across the scorched surface.

The stone giant opened its mouth and unleashed a thunderous roar that shook the very ground.

Seeing this, Feng Qi gave the stone giant no chance to rise. He swiftly closed the distance and seized its left arm.

”Roar!”

As he roared, Mo’s eyes blazed with emerald flames.

His qi blood-infused body tensed, veins bulging on his forearms like writhing dragons stretching toward his fingertips.

Surging power coursed through him, rising like a tide.

With brute force, he gradually lifted the towering, ten-meter-tall stone giant. Then, with a perfect over-the-shoulder throw, he hurled it toward the massive death worm writhing in the distance.

The stone giant’s colossal body crashed down, instantly burying the death worm, which was still howling skyward.

Nearby building debris shattered into dust under the impact, sending plumes of smoke and dust billowing into the air.

A crimson figure pierced through the swirling dust, closing in on the stone giant and once again lifting it with sheer strength.

The massive stone giant, battered relentlessly, had no chance to retaliate.

Under Feng Qi’s relentless, storm-like assault, the stone giant’s left arm shattered first, followed by its right leg. Soon, all four limbs were pulverized, leaving only its head intact.

When Feng Qi shattered the stone giant’s head and crushed the crystal within, a golden mist emerged and surged into his body.

Panting, he surveyed his surroundings.

Numerous domain creatures were observing his battle, but none dared approach rashly.

Confirming his temporary safety, he summoned his status panel.

He had gained two new innate abilities:

----

Earth Element Resistance (Passive)

Ability Tier: Second Tier (Upgradeable)

Resistance Value: 13

Description: Grants resistance to earth element attacks. The higher the resistance value, the greater the immunity to earth-based attacks.

----

Shadow Strike (Active)

Ability Tier: Third Tier (Unupgradeable)

Description: Consumes a portion of qi blood to gain a 5-second burst of enhanced speed. The strength of the speed boost scales with the amount of qi blood consumed; higher consumption yields a stronger effect.

----

Feng Qi had acquired two new abilities: ”Earth Element Resistance,” obtained after killing the stone giant, and ”Shadow Strike,” obtained after killing an alien domain creature.

Although Shadow Strike was ranked higher in terms of immediate power, Feng Qi preferred Earth Element Resistance.

While the latter’s initial strength was low, its growth potential was undoubtedly high. Moreover, being a passive ability, it perfectly complemented his combat style.

As for Shadow Strike, he considered it rather impractical.

While the burst of power was impressive, it lasted only five seconds, and more importantly, activating it consumed his qi blood.

He already possessed a burst-type ability: Blood Source.

Using Shadow Strike while in Blood Source Form would only shorten the duration of the latter.

After a brief analysis, Feng Qi’s consciousness dove into his sea of consciousness.

Golden waves surged as over twenty talent ability orbs materialized before him, orbiting a central, crimson-gold orb.

The golden orbs represented his human form, while the red orbs represented his bone man battle form, allowing him to switch between them at will.

His consciousness approached the black talent bead representing ”Shadow Strike” and plucked it from its place.

”Three-Tailed!”

Hearing his call, Three-Tailed emerged from the ”Evolution Token” floating above the gold-red bead.

After tossing the Shadow Strike talent bead to Three-Tailed, his consciousness retreated from the mental space.

A useless ability. I’ll just decompose it into talent points—turn trash into treasure.

Regaining his senses, he turned to gaze toward the Star City Shelter.

Having entered the Dream Realm, he had clearly fought his way here from that direction. But with the memory overlap still in effect, he couldn’t recall what exactly lay there.

Chirp!

Three-Tailed’s cry suddenly rang out. In its spirit body form, the creature burst from Feng Qi’s chest and landed on the ground, leaping about excitedly.

”Stop bothering me!”

Three-Tailed lowered its head at the rebuke, but a barely perceptible hint of disdain flickered in its eyes before it obediently returned to Feng Qi’s body.

Ignoring Three-Tailed’s antics, Feng Qi seized the opportunity while still in his Blood Source Form and lunged at the death worm.

This death worm was different from the one Feng Qi had encountered in the Dream Realm, its size more than three times larger.

Its gaping maw resembled a meat grinder, lined with rows of razor-sharp teeth.

Having been crushed by the stone giant’s body moments earlier, the death worm was still writhing and struggling, kicking up clouds of dust.

Feng Qi seized the opportunity to close in.

Sensing danger, the death worm suddenly twisted and lunged at Feng Qi, attempting to bite him.

He didn’t dodge.

Instead, he thrust his massive arm straight into the death worm’s tooth-filled maw.

The moment his arm made contact, the maw began to grind like a millstone.

But this assault was negligible to Feng Qi.

In his Blood Source Form, his flesh was harder than steel, and the form’s durability had been further enhanced by talent point upgrades.

Mo’s dark green Demonic Flame surged into the death worm’s body, its flesh serving as fuel for the infernal blaze.

In an instant, the death worm was engulfed in Demonic Flame.

The flames rose, rapidly draining the worm’s internal moisture, and black spots began to appear on its surface.

Feng Qi abruptly flung his arm, sending the death worm crashing to the side.

Instead of pressing his advantage, he calmly turned his back and strode toward the Star City Shelter without a backward glance.

Flames erupted behind him as the death worm writhed violently, but its struggles soon ceased.

A cloud of blood mist rose from the worm’s corpse and drifted toward Feng Qi, who was already some distance away, before seeping into his body.

Checking his status panel, he saw that his resilience had leveled up to 9, granting him a 9% resilience bonus.

He quickened his pace.

His figure transformed into a streak of crimson light, leaving deep footprints in his wake as he raced toward the Star City Shelter.

The negative emotions still churning within him found release in a primal roar that shook the air.

”ROAR!”

The thunderous roar startled the domain creatures blocking his path, sending them scattering to either side.

Those too slow to react were pulverized into blood mist and absorbed.

Soon, he had acquired three new innate abilities.

However, all three were active-use abilities of marginal utility.

Now that he possessed the Three-Tailed ability, even seemingly useless skills could be transformed into valuable assets. He no longer worried about wasting them.
