Wu Ruocheng successfully unleashed the heaven-defying power of the Backlight Butterfly, reversing time—though only by the briefest moment, just enough to return to the instant before Jun Qingxue was invaded by the Demonic Phantom.
Chen Xuan’s memories, however, remained untouched by the temporal reversal. Seeing the scene of the phantom lunging toward Jun Qingxue, he reacted on pure instinct, firing a bolt of supreme immortal energy at the shadowy specter.
The moment the phantom reached Jun Qingxue and the supreme immortal energy struck the space between them occurred almost simultaneously. Just as the phantom was about to burrow into the center of Jun Qingxue’s brow, Chen Xuan’s supreme immortal energy hit it. While the blast did no real damage, the Nascent Soul stage phantom immediately recognized the supreme immortal energy as a potent tonic. If it could invade the mind of a cultivator possessing such energy, it might find a way to heal its own irreparable soul injuries.
