Cursed Immortality-Chapter 839 The Manipulator of Time: Pisces! (1)

The moment Jacob was sent out of the Tower of Libra, he instantly spotted the Faery Humans and the masked clergymen, but he didn't pay much attention to them, just like Gracey's soldiers.

After all, he still had the Vestige of Pisces's trial to interfere with. After he heard Otis's revelation about this unknown God's desire to get all the legendary vestiges, he was in a hurry to quickly gather all the vestiges before something untoward happened. Although Jacob didn't know how this God entered the middle galaxies or was probably born there, he knew that as long as the legendary kings got their hands on the ascension permits, they would really not care about the legendary vestiges since they might not even know the true difference between a cosmic vestige and a star vestige. Lastly, as for the people closest to that God, he wasn't sure if killing them all would alert God or might leave some trick behind on them. Even Immortika had to be restrained while in the space of the towers, so he was sure those tricks wouldn't work within the tower.

That's why Jacob decided to leave directly after merely glancing at those people. They had no way of catching up to him at his current speed.

As for thinking that an old acquaintance was present in that group, Jacob didn't even consider it—or, more accurately, he had completely forgotten about it and didn't care as long as no one got in his way!

After ensuring no one was behind him, he again made a wish and vanished from his spot!

Jacob directly teleported into the final trial of the Tower of Pisces according to his wish. As his senses readjusted, he felt a wave of disorientation. He found himself standing on the edge of a vast, ethereal lake, and he was astounded since this wasn't the scene he was imagining.

The water shimmered like liquid silver, ripples bending and distorting the reflection of the darkened sky above. In the center of the lake stood an enormous stone platform covered in ancient murals that told the enigmatic story of Pisces. Jacob instantly knew he was in the right place; it was just that this was unlike the previous trials. Observing the murals, they depicted a pair of intertwined serpentine creatures, each coiled in an eternal dance. One serpent was cloaked in a veil of shimmering starlight, while the other's scales glowed like the sun.

The murals were extremely vivid as they seemed to represent the twin aspects of time—the flow of the present and the echoes of the past, locked in an endless cycle of balance and harmony. In some sections of the mural, they seemed to manipulate the very fabric of reality, bending it to their will, freezing moments in time, or accelerating the flow of events.

However, Jacob didn't have time to observe those murals closely because a huge tremor suddenly shook the space, and his eyes instantly followed the point of the disturbance.

Jacob was astounded because, at this moment, he spotted a figure of mystical light—it was exactly the Wisp of Pisces. It was an ethereal, translucent entity shaped like a majestic serpentine dragon with a pair of long, flowing whiskers. Its scales shimmered in a shifting gradient of blue and silver, like the passage of time itself.

Around its body, an incomprehensible time ripples and distortions moved like water, creating an almost hypnotic effect. Its eyes, deep pools of azure, glowed with a mysterious wisdom and power, hinting at its control over time.

Before Jacob could take in the full sight of the Wisp, the air was filled with a ferocious roar that sent tremors across the lake. This noise was also a source of disturbance.

Jacob's eyes flickered like condensed beams as he looked at the source. From the other side of the lake, a colossal Fire Wyvern charged forward, its scales blazing with molten fury!

The wyvern's body was covered in fiery-red armor, its wings vast enough to eclipse the platform as they unfurled. Its eyes burned with ferocity, and its maw glowed like a furnace ready to unleash its destructive might.

Jacob was even more astounded because this Fire Wyvern instantly made him think about the Flame Calamity he had once encountered in the Dark Battle Arena, and he nearly lost that mighty descendant of the Dragon.

Furthermore, this Fire Wyvern didn't seem any weaker than the Flame Calamity, if not stronger.

'So, the Legendary Key of Pisces ended up in the hands of a Wyvern? Now the question is if this Wyvern is from the Lesser or Middle Galaxies. The chances of it being latter are higher since Wyvern are extremely rare in the lesser galaxies, I've only encountered two…' Jacob thought deeply as he closely observed the earth-shaking battle. The battle between the two entities seemed to have begun sometime now, and Jacob couldn't help but sigh in relief since he didn't waste any time on those people and come directly here. Otherwise, he might have to pay even more lifespan to make this right.

At this moment, the wyvern reared back and unleashed a torrent of searing flames, a cataclysmic breath that seemed capable of incinerating everything in its path. The air heated to a blistering degree, and the fire formed a raging inferno that rushed towards the Wisp of Pisces, creating an apocalyptic scene of blazing destruction. Even from far away, Jacob could feel the destructive heat!

However, the Wisp of Pisces remained unmoved, its serene expression unchanging which was even more shocking, and suddenly it raised one of its ethereal claws. A pulse of energy rippled from its form, and time itself seemed to warp and twist!

The wyvern's fiery breath slowed to a halt, freezing midair as if captured in a moment suspended outside the flow of reality. The flames hung there, an immobile wave of destructive force, while the Wisp of Pisces calmly drifted forward, its eyes glowing with the power to command time.

Jacob felt a chill run down his spine when he witnessed the power of time manipulation for the first time. It was a power unlike any he had ever seen.

'Power of time…probably the strongest power in existence.' Jacob thought as he knew something like elusive as time wasn't something that could be manipulated.

The Wisp of Pisces, representing the time element, clearly had supreme control over it, and it didn't even seem to be trying to fight with the Fire Wyvern as it dismissively stood in its place.

Furthermore, it seemed to be toying with the Fire Wyvern as it only stopped its breath, not the Fire Wyvern.

The Fire Wyvern roared again with apparent frustration, its massive wings beating as it tried to break through the Wisp's control. But the Wisp's mastery over time was absolute, and suddenly, the Wisp of Pisces's finger flickered, and the next moment, another shocking scene played out.

The breath that was stopped in midair started to flow black, and so did the Fire Wyvern, creating a mystical yet eerie scene.

Jacob's eyes flickered in shock, 'It's reversing time!?'

Furthermore, once the Fire Wyvern returned to its initial stance when he was about to shoot out fire breath, Wisp of Pisces suddenly pulled its hand down and left it alone.

However, Jacob suddenly felt something was incredibly wrong with this Wisp of Pisces. He didn't know if he was imagining things, but it seemed the Wisp of Pisces had this delightful smile as it looked at the Fire Wyvern as if it were a toy!
