Damn, I Have to Marry the Strongest Antagonist at the Start?

Chapter 263: Chapter260-The Future Silhouette



Seeing this, Owen realized that the Archdemon's current power was still insufficient to contend with such a dreadful being as the Jade Dragon.

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, the Jade Dragon, seemingly enraged by the feeble figure before it, lashed out with a single claw, tearing through the void as if it were fragile silk.

The devouring vortices surrounding the Archdemon crumbled under that one claw, unable to block it in the slightest.

The Archdemon's delicate brows furrowed. Just as she was about to tear through the void to retreat, she discovered that under the increasingly intense emerald light, she could no longer rip open the space around her. She could only watch helplessly as the claw loomed larger in her eyes.

Screech~

The sharp dragon's claw glinted coldly as it tore a massive gash across the Archdemon's body, nearly splitting her in two. Blood flowed uncontrollably from the wound!

The aura that had been rising within her earlier plummeted in an instant.

Moreover, the gaping wound on her body refused to heal, as the emerald light ceaselessly eroded what little vitality remained.

"Being devoured by this dragon should be considered an honor for you. Must you suffer first to learn obedience?"

"Then again, this isn't so bad. After slumbering for so many years, it's good to stretch out my muscles a bit," the Jade Dragon yawned lazily, showing no urgency to press its advantage after wounding the Archdemon.

Only after it felt its energy surge once more did it extend a claw with an overbearing might, aiming to suppress the Archdemon and grasp her in its palm.

However, at that very moment, an extremely dangerous aura surged within the Archdemon's eyes.

The Jade Dragon's claw came to a halt, as a sense of unease rose from deep within.

It seemed as though the Archdemon's earlier silence was a prelude to some terrifying move. And indeed, ever since the moment she first struck at the Jade Dragon, the Archdemon had prepared for the worst.

She had been covertly forming hand seals, setting up a formation.

Otherwise, even if the Jade Dragon's power was far superior to hers, it had yet to fully awaken. She would have been able to contend with it for a while longer, rather than being grievously wounded so quickly.

Now that the Jade Dragon had grown careless, she had her trump card ready.

"Temporal Rift, open for me!"

An angry roar erupted from her throat, shaking the heavens and the earth.

Following that, the Archdemon's blood-stained ten fingers curled into claws and viciously tore at the space around the Jade Dragon.

Creak-

It was as if a heavy door had been forcefully opened, emitting an eerie, disorienting sound that reverberated through the air.

The space around the Jade Dragon cracked open into a long, narrow rift, resembling a pitch- black eye. Both time and space seemed to freeze at that moment.

A Temporal Rift—a sealing technique that could only be cast at the cost of one's own lifespan.

Anyone below the Archgod level who fell into a Temporal Rift would become eternally lost within, never to escape.

Even an Archgod-level being, once trapped inside, would find it difficult to emerge unscathed.

All her previous attacks against the Jade Dragon were merely distractions. This was the true killing move!

With the emergence of the Temporal Rift, a flicker of surprise and caution appeared in the Jade Dragon's once-arrogant gaze.

If it fell into such a dangerous crevice, it could be at risk of perishing.

After all, it wasn't truly immortal or impervious to the ravages of time and space.

"Get in there!"

Veins bulged on the Archdemon's smooth forehead as she snarled.

A fierce wind roared from within the Temporal Rift, like invisible hands pulling at the Jade Dragon's colossal form.

"Hmph! Such temporal manipulation is nothing but a parlor trick before me!"

The Jade Dragon sneered coldly. It had some resistance to the erosion of time, and the Archdemon's power was not as strong as its own.

Although this technique was fearsome, it was still lacking against it!

"Jade Dragon, huh? Let's see the power of the new Supreme Order!"

Owen's hands formed a series of ancient seals, and an overwhelming surge of mana burst forth, manifesting as an immense phantom that pierced through the heavens and the earth! With the appearance of this figure, the Jade Dragon's attention was instantly drawn.

From that silhouette, it sensed an indescribable presence, as if standing before the supreme ruler of the future. Even its most exalted ancient dragon bloodline quivered faintly, as if instinctively paying homage to an absolute monarch.

Despite having lived for eons, it had never felt such a sensation before.

And it was coming from an ant-like grandmaster-tier mage like Owen!

What in the world was this figure?

The Jade Dragon's brows furrowed deeply, its emerald eyes emitting a terrifying light as it

tried to pierce through the thick layers of fog to see the silhouette's face.

But under the probing of its Eyes of Insight, the fog only thickened.

Even more unnervingly, its rash intrusion seemed to have alerted the shadowy figure.

The mist cleared

and the previously blurry figure became strangely vivid.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

At that very moment, the Jade Dragon's eyes suddenly felt as if they were being stabbed by needles, and two streams of crimson blood tears flowed down!

"This... this is impossible!"

Despite the blood streaming from its eyes, the Jade Dragon still widened its gaze, trying to confirm that it hadn't seen wrong.

But when it looked again, the massive silhouette had already merged into Owen's body.

Owen's aura began to soar wildly!

This time, Owen was not using the Primary Supreme Order, but, thanks to the Blessing of God, had forcibly elevated it to the Mid-level!

The Mid-level Supreme Order had undergone a qualitative transformation, allowing Owen to wield far more terrifying power from the future.

Under the overwhelming force of the future's power, even Owen's refined body showed signs of being pushed to its limits, covered in cracks with beads of blood seeping through.

"Heaven Emperor Fist!"

With this immense power coursing through him, Owen roared skyward and unleashed a punch

that channeled a torrent of magic energy.

The Heaven Emperor Fist was already a domineering move.

Now, empowered by the Supreme Order, it had undergone a metamorphosis.

The moment the fist was thrown, the fabric of space-time rippled like water, and the imprint

of the punch appeared on the Jade Dragon's chest.

It seemed to contain the cause and effect of the universe itself-one punch, and the target would be severely wounded!

Even with the Jade Dragon's strength, which could contend with the Order, it didn't have time to react. Its massive body was sent flying the instant Owen's punch landed.

Under the impact of this punch, its entire body went numb, and at the last moment before the Temporal Rift closed, the Jade Dragon was forcibly struck into the rift by Owen's Heaven

Emperor Fist.

The rift was pitch black, like the densest swamp. The moment the Jade Dragon's body touched it, it disappeared completely, leaving no trace behind.

By the time it realized the danger, its body was already trapped in a dark, desolate void.

Its colossal form, in this icy void, seemed as insignificant as a grain of sand, drifting aimlessly

within.

Here, time seemed to cease to exist.

The Jade Dragon struggled, but found itself unable to move. Only its bleeding eyes could

slowly turn.

...

As the Jade Dragon was struck by the Heaven Emperor Fist, the Archdemon seized the opportunity to escape from its claw, her entire body weak and sinking rapidly.

Just as her wounded body was about to crash heavily onto the spike-laden ruins below, Owen dashed over and caught her in his arms, looking at her with concern.

Held in Owen's embrace, a wave of heat washed over her face. The Archdemon's cheeks flushed slightly. She tried to push herself out of his arms but could only lift her hand weakly

and lightly pat his chest, almost like a playful slap.

"You're gravely injured, don't move around."

Owen gave her a stern look, examining her wounds with a pained expression.

A massive claw mark nearly split her in two, and the lingering destructive aura from the Jade

Dragon continued to wreak havoc on her body.

Moreover, the strain of forcefully deploying the Temporal Rift had further shortened her already limited lifespan. Through the Order of Life, Owen could sense the heavy presence of decay within her, as if her life was nearing its end.

Owen's heart trembled. Although the Archdemon could be domineering and capricious at times, she had once saved his life from the encirclement of the God Emperor and many God

Kings.

Now, with the Jade Dragon's sudden appearance, if she hadn't stepped in and used such a technique to hold it off, he would undoubtedly be dead by now.

In fact, she had saved his life twice.

As Owen's intense gaze bore into her, the Archdemon stubbornly met his eyes, only to avert

her gaze quickly with a soft huff.

"The Jade Dragon is only temporarily sealed within the Temporal Rift. With its strength, it won't stay there for long. We need to leave immediately."

"If you push yourself like this, your injuries will worsen, and you'll lose your life."
