Chapter 326: Manager's Authority: Delete and Undo! (Two-in-One)
"Why is the left hand in the Crystal Clan's possession?"
The Ancestor of the Moon Spirit stared intently at the projection of the battlefield where Qin Chuan was, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, no longer retaining the calmness of the past; his gaze was heavy with solemnity.
At that moment, countless images of the past flashed through his mind.
After the Immortal King killed the Manager, he took the Manager's head, while the abandoned Manager's body was fought over by the various Third Realm clans, ultimately dismembered, and each body part was given to different clans.
Such actions later led to a terrible disaster.
That was after the Immortal Clan had been annihilated, a colossal terror that the mere thought of could make the Ancestor of the Moon Spirit tremble immensely.
The Moon Spirit Clan eventually became the sole surviving clan, and the first thing the Ancestor of the Moon Spirit who had witnessed that power did was search for the Manager's body across the Heavenly Dome Rank.
After a full thousand years, nearly turning the entire Heavenly Dome Rank upside down, he only managed to find parts of the Manager's body excluding the left hand and the head.
He never expected that the left hand, which he had never been able to find, would appear in the possession of the Crystal Clan!
Foolish Camille, does she really know what she's doing!
The Ancestor's expression changed uncertainly and finally settle with a look of determination in his eyes.
He couldn't let Luo get hold of the Manager's left hand!
He quickly rose to his feet, about to descend to the battlefield, but upon viewing the scene in the projection, he slowly sat back down, heaving a deep sigh.
It was too late now.
-----------------
"Ding—"
With a crisp sound, everything around froze instantly. Qin Chuan watched as the left hand that continued to fly towards him even in the Time Freeze Space, his pupils rapidly contracting.
So far, the only entities he had seen that could move within the Time Freeze Space were bearers of ominous auras.
But even those ominous entities were somewhat suppressed in the Time Freeze Space and swiftly disintegrated by some mysterious force, unable to persist for long.
However, this hand was entirely different.
It faced no suppression in the frozen space, showed no signs of disintegration by any force, and the entire Time Freeze Space even began to faintly shimmer with a magnificent golden hue upon its arrival.
Looking at the slowly approaching, decayed yet sacred left hand, a bold conjecture suddenly emerged in Qin Chuan's mind. His eyes glittered with inexpressible brilliance, and after a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth, and instead of dodging, stretched out his left hand proactively.
If his guess was correct, then...
"Buzz—"
The moment the two hands touched, the entire Time Freeze Space was thrown into violent trembling. Qin Chuan distinctly felt that his sense of connection to the left hand was rapidly fading; his own left hand was disintegrating inch by inch, turning into segments of fragmented data.
But at the same time, massive information related to that mysterious left hand was also being transmitted into his mind with the touch.
"Boom!!!"
An overwhelming amount of information flooded his mind in an instant, causing veins to pop on Qin Chuan's forehead and a pained expression to emerge on his face.
At the same time, however, he was progressively understanding what the left hand truly was.
The disintegration of the left hand began to slow down, finally coming to a halt.
The veins on Qin Chuan's forehead gradually receded as he took a deep look at the suspended golden left hand; without any hesitation, he grabbed it with his right hand and pressed it onto his own left hand's position.
The turbulence in the Time Freeze Space grew even more violent. Under Qin Chuan's watch, the decayed left hand slowly collapsed, with its inner golden mystic runes and lines shooting out, quickly enlarging in his vision until they covered the entirety of the Time Freeze Space.
Moments later, the runes and lines reconverged in Qin Chuan's hand, reforging his disintegrated left hand, now surging with countless golden threads, as if the hand had undergone an essential transformation.
"Is this another of the Manager's Authorities?" Qin Chuan clenched his left hand, his gaze shifting to the Crystal Clan's Ancestor, Camille, who hung motionless in the air.
Her exquisite and stunning face was still frozen in a fierce and triumphant expression, seemingly convinced that Qin Chuan, who had touched the left hand, was doomed.
"As a reward for bringing me this gift," Qin Chuan stepped forth to Camille, placing his left hand on her shoulder.
"Let you be the first to feel this power."
Camille's form disintegrated instantly, her material body transforming into a stream of data and code that swiftly began to vanish under the influence of Qin Chuan's will, completely erased from the informational plane.
Manager's Authority: Deletion!
The entire stream of information divided into three parts, of which only the smallest was easily erasable by Qin Chuan.
As this segment of information vanished entirely, Qin Chuan looked towards the middle layer of information obstructed by an invisible force.
"It seems I can break through?" Qin Chuan murmured, then reached out with his left hand, the obstructing force cleared in an instant, and the information likewise dissipated.
However, when Qin Chuan tried to delete the innermost layer of the information, he met unprecedented resistance, forcing him to eventually give up.
Time Stop ended.
Everything around began to move again, Qin Chuan's left hand returned to its ordinary appearance.
The left hand flying towards him vanished, as did the descended Crystal Clan's Ancestor.
A line of text suddenly appeared before his eyes.
[The Crystal Clan's Ancestor, Camille, has fallen]
A slight shock crossed his heart, but Qin Chuan soon revealed a look of understanding.
So that was it.
The part of the information he had managed to delete most easily using his new Authority, corresponded to the descending form of the Crystal Clan's Ancestor.
