[Chronoblade – Active]: Freeze time for three seconds while freely attacking.
The description of his newly acquired ultimate-grade skill flashed through Wang Chen's mind. Instead of joy, he felt irritation tug at his chest.
Not bad… but compared to Eternal Will of the Blade, this is a child's toy.
Three seconds—a blink to mortals, an eternity to cultivators. In battle, even a single heartbeat could decide life or death.
The world around him went eerily still.
Everything—the swirling dust, the cold wind, even the screaming cultivators frozen mid‑motion—had come to a halt. It was as if someone had pressed the "pause" button on reality itself.
Looking down, Wang Chen could clearly see the razor‑sharp edge of Vice Head Zhang's sword hovering mere centimeters from his neck. Just a grain of time more, and his head would've rolled.
He also noticed something else—the desperate look in his youngest disciple's eyes.
Regressor or not, this girl truly cares about her master…
