Chapter 1338 Well Timed

Ning gave an expression of surprise at the sudden information that was given to him. He frowned significantly.

"Umbra died?" he asked the system.

<Yes.>

"How?" Ning asked.

The system immediately sent a quick explanation of the situation.

"It seems I don't have time to waste on these wastes," he said and crunched Bass's neck in his hands.

The dead man crumpled on the floor, dead.

Ning then turned around and slammed his leg on the rock next to him, killing the other man who was trapped beneath it. The rock pulverized, and the room was filled with its shards.

Seeing that all three of these people were dead, he quickly used his Sound Core to use a technique to create a feminine voice that screamed loudly.

"FIRE!"

The sound barrier he had put up beforehand would now be gone, and people would save themselves. Doing all he could here, he teleported away.Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only

Randal looked at the dark Essence Soul that floated out of the dead beast's body and slowly stepped back. He stumbled a little when he stepped on something and looked back only to see a dead body.

All the dead that remained inside the dark world had been pushed back out it seemed. There was also something else happening here that he wasn't aware of.

He could sense weirdness in the space around him that was not caused by Essence at all. The room was large and wide when it should have not been. Was this the Space anomaly that his system had told him about?

The two halves of the beast slowly joined to become one, while blood poured back into the body. Then, the Essence Soul also moved into the body, the connection between the two reforming, almost as if there had never been a disconnect.

Then, the torn space that had split Umbra rehealed itself, and Umbra opened her eyes, stepping back in surprise.

She breathed hoarsely while looking down at Ning, feeling the flow of a weird Essence around her. "What... what happened?" she asked with a confused look.

"I was notified that you died," Ning said, slumping a little. His Essence Core changed immediately as this one had been overworked just a little bit. "So, I came to save you."

"I... died?" Umbra asked, memories flooding back to her. "Then... how?"

"I saved you, of course," Ning said.

"You!" Randal's voice floated from behind Ning. His trembling finger pointed toward Ning in accusation while his mind refused to accept the truth of what he had seen. "You... Did you just..."

Ning looked back. "Yes, I did," he said with a small smile. "I turned back time."

Both Randal and Umbra gasped in surprise.

"Time Essence!" Randal spoke as realization dawned on him. "That Essence you used. That was Time Essence."

Ning nodded. "I used a localized Time Reversal technique to bring her back to life," he said.

"Bring... bring someone back to life?" Randal was shocked when he heard that. He had never even considered such a possibility.

"How... how is that possible?" he asked. "Death is permanent."

"It's only permanent when you let it be," Ning said. There were certainly many limitations with turning back time to revive someone, but he wasn't going to start explaining that to the man.

"Anyway," Ning turned around and faced the young man. "Now then, who are you? And why did you attack my beast?"
