# Chapter 2485: Bitter Victory
The people of the Seven Divine Temple Alliance naturally also noticed the appearance of the Fate Temple Alliance's experts. Their expressions changed instantly as the Ice and Snow Divine Temple's Temple Master shouted, "Speed up the killing of these people. Kill Lin Feng first."
"Agreed." The Void Divine Temple's Temple Master and others nodded, and a cold gleam flashed in his eyes. This Lin Feng was indeed tenacious; even so, he still couldn't be killed.
"Brother Ox, we retreat first." Lin Feng spoke. Before the various Temple Masters could launch their attacks, time once again came to a standstill. Only Old Ox, who was skilled in the power of time, could resist this stillness. His body moved together with Lin Feng's. At the same time, Lin Feng accelerated his own time flow, rushing to the front of that Supreme Demon Saint, carrying him away like the wind and rapidly retreating. The next moment, when time resumed its flow, outside the Heaven Sealing Chart, the gathered experts began to concentrate their attacks and bombard the Heaven Sealing Chart wildly.
Among them were the Earth Divine Temple's Earth Divine Axe and the Heavenly Sound Divine Temple's super sacred artifact, Heavenly Law. Combined with the attacks of Sacred King weapons and Supreme Realm experts, even the Heaven Sealing Chart began to shake.
"At this rate, the Heaven Sealing Chart will be destroyed." The Void Divine Temple's Temple Master's expression stiffened. But how had Lin Feng managed to escape just now? It seemed that everything had stopped in that instant. That was the power of time stop.
"Pursue!" The Void Divine Temple's Temple Master continued to step forward. He saw Lin Feng's body charge into the void, shouting, "Attack toward me!"
As his words fell, a terrifying fluctuation surged from the long spear in Lin Feng's hand. He struck fiercely against the Heaven Sealing Chart.
"Break the seal!" Lin Feng's voice rang out. A gap appeared there, and Lin Feng's body explosively retreated. The Fate Temple's Temple Master and others understood. The Earth Divine Axe slashed down heavily, accurately striking the gap that Lin Feng's spear had pierced, gradually tearing open an opening.
"Chop!" All the powerful lights simultaneously burst forth toward that gap. A sizzling sound rang out, as if the void itself was shattering. The Void Divine Temple's Temple Master's face instantly turned pale. He reached out and recalled the Heaven Sealing Chart, but a broken gap had appeared on it.
"Kill!" The Fate Temple's Temple Master and the others instantly charged in. An even more terrifying aura erupted, shaking heaven and earth.
The people of this city were utterly stunned. They had never seen so many terrifying existences before. It seemed that nearly half of the strongest figures in the entire Nine Heavens Celestial Court had gathered here for this battle. Since the end of the ancient era, this was definitely the most intense battle.
The charging crowd launched a collective attack directly. They converged their forces and instantly killed one of the opposing Supreme Realm experts, then began to slaughter in all directions.
"Earth Temple Master, join me in killing the enemy. The others, delay the battle and don't clash head-on with the enemy's strong ones." Lin Feng roared, his voice spreading across the entire sky. Everyone nodded and began to widen the distance of the battle.
The Earth Divine Temple's Temple Master, holding the Earth Divine Axe, came to Lin Feng's side and asked, "How do we join forces?"
"Help block the attacks for me. Brother Ox, you also guard for me." Lin Feng said to Old Ox. Several powerful figures charged forward from the front—the pursuing Temple Masters.
"Freeze!" Lin Feng coldly shouted. Instantly, time seemed to stop flowing in the front. The entire sky fell silent. Not only the enemy but also Lin Feng's own people were affected. This was changing the origin point of time, causing time to stand still.
Lin Feng's body rushed toward the Wind Divine Temple's Temple Master, who was at the very front. The Wind Divine Temple's Temple Master was half a step ahead in intercepting Lin Feng. His speed was extremely fast, so he had charged to the forefront. In his hand, he held a super sacred artifact, like a feather fan or a Sacred Armor Imperial Robe, shimmering with black and white silver light, exuding an extremely sharp aura.
In that brief instant, Lin Feng's entire body shot toward the Wind Divine Temple's Temple Master like flowing light. Fast—at this moment, his body was also wrapped in an accelerated time flow. His spear transformed into a sword, the Sword of Dominion, emitting a supreme dominion sword light, seizing the power of heaven and earth. A terrifying oscillating might swept through, descending before the opponent.
"No..." The Wind Divine Temple's Temple Master had just awakened from the stopped time when he saw a fatal strike coming at him, revealing a look of terror.
"Not good." The other Temple Masters also saw this scene, their expressions changing drastically. The Void Divine Temple's Temple Master roared, solidifying space. But almost simultaneously, the time flow in their space crazily slowed down. The Earth Divine Temple's Temple Master understood what Lin Feng wanted him to do. He directly swept out with the Earth Divine Axe, while their bodies stepped forward. He found that his speed seemed to have increased. A figure beside him walked forward simultaneously.
"Kill!" Lin Feng roared. The sword cried out to the heavens. The Wind Divine Temple's Temple Master's figure drifted like the wind, turning into an afterimage.
"Slow!" Lin Feng shouted again. A tearing sound rang out as the sword pierced through the opponent's shoulder bone, crazily oscillating and shredding, while simultaneously devouring the opponent's power.
Blood rain scattered. The Wind Divine Temple's Temple Master ignored his injury and tried to flee. At the same time, the super sacred artifact in his hand slashed toward Lin Feng, its destructive power terrifying to the extreme.
"Vanquish!"
Lin Feng's body was directly shattered and destroyed. But at this moment, the Wind Divine Temple's Temple Master felt no joy at all. An extreme danger came from above.
"Time, freeze!" Lin Feng, stepping out from the void, shouted. His palm was like a sword, directly piercing through the opponent's head. The terrifying great oscillating force destroyed everything. A furious roar sounded as the opponent's divine soul tried to escape. But the Sword of Dominion returned to Lin Feng's hand, and he fiercely thrust it out, shredding even that soul shadow.
"This is his true body!" A Void Great Handprint directly rushed toward Lin Feng. The Earth Temple Master and Old Ox had already cleared many attacks from the sides for Lin Feng, but some attacks still penetrated through to Lin Feng. Lin Feng's body explosively retreated, changing the time flow. The Sword of Dominion whistled back, while he gathered terrifying power and blasted out a palm strike. A rumbling destructive aura swept across heaven and earth. Lin Feng felt a void oscillating force crazily rush into his body, destroying his life force. Life power wrapped around himself. As Lin Feng retreated, he saw the powerful figures ahead still walking forward in pursuit. A cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth as he spat out the words: "Time..."
As soon as the words fell, the steps of the powerful figures ahead directly stopped. A Temple Master had just been killed and destroyed before their eyes. The impact on their minds was shocking.
But at this moment, they saw a mocking cold smile on Lin Feng's lips, causing their expressions to stiffen. They knew they had been fooled by Lin Feng. At the same time, the Earth Temple Master and Old Ox had both retreated to Lin Feng's side.
"Time stop... you've actually comprehended it." The Earth Temple Master looked at Lin Feng in shock, unsure whether to be happy. Lin Feng's growth in power was naturally beneficial for opposing the Seven Divine Temple Alliance. But in the future, such growth in Lin Feng would be too terrifying; he would surpass them all.
"Boom!" A brilliant realm light suddenly appeared, descending from the sky, engulfing all those people. Lin Feng looked up at the figure in the void—the King of the Ancient Realm Clan, and also an acquaintance of Lin Feng's. He was an old man Lin Feng had seen long ago, the Ten Thousand Demon King. Bearing the hatred of the Ancient Realm Clan, he had hidden in the lower realm, experiencing life after life, creating a Ten Thousand Demon King Realm, cultivating his own power, all for the day he could overturn the lofty existences of the Divine Temples.
"Lin Feng, you go ahead and kill the enemy. I and the other Temple Masters will hold these people back. It's more advantageous." The King of the Ancient Realm Clan spoke, causing Lin Feng to nod. "Troubling you."
With that, Lin Feng's figure directly disappeared from there. The Fate Temple's Temple Master and the Heavenly Sound Divine Temple's Temple Master took his place, confronting those Temple Masters. They didn't seek to match or defeat them, only to delay them. With Lin Feng's comprehended time stop ability, killing other Supreme Realm experts would be much easier.
Soon, Lin Feng charged before a person. That person's expression froze, and then he heard a cold sound from Lin Feng's mouth. Time stopped. The Sword of Dominion tore through the void, directly killing the opponent. Another Supreme Realm expert's soul scattered.
The Temple Masters who broke through the realm light saw Lin Feng's slaughter. In just a short moment, he had killed two Supreme Realm experts. Their expressions turned extremely ugly. Lin Feng had comprehended the powerful time stop ability, making killing Supreme Realm experts as easy as taking something from his pocket. This was their calamity and disaster.
"Retreat!" Finally, with a voice spreading across the sky, the experts of the Seven Divine Temple Alliance began to abandon the battle and retreat in all directions. Lin Feng couldn't make time stop indefinitely. He could only release this power once, then wait for the feeling of controlling time to reappear before using this super ability again. Therefore, he couldn't possibly kill them all. But he wouldn't give up; he still chose to pursue. He left those few Temple Masters to the Ten Thousand Demon King and the others to hold back.
Lin Feng's time stop changed the flow of time itself, also affecting his own side. Therefore, even his own experts couldn't catch up. Only he alone pursued.
When Lin Feng's Sword of Dominion once again pierced into a person, killing the opponent, his divine sense swept across and finally found no trace of the enemy's Supreme Realm experts. But from the start of their retreat, he had already killed three Supreme existences. In this battle, he alone had achieved extremely brilliant results. But there was no joy on Lin Feng's face. This battle could be called a bitter victory. The losses on both sides were terrifying.
Turning around, Lin Feng walked out slowly. Before long, he returned to the battlefield. The battle had already concluded. The living all felt a sense of relief, yet also a faint sadness. How many years of cultivation did it take to reach the Supreme Realm? And in this single battle, how many had perished without even a corpse remaining.
