Time and Space Reversal

## Description

Time and Space Reversal is a technique typically performed by Universe Master and higher cultivators to revive their target, typically a subordinate or someone important to their race. It requires mastery of Law of Time and Law of Space to be performed, so only Universe Masters and certain special lifeforms with unique abilities (such as Venerable Ancestral Tree) are able to perform it.

## Technique Details

When executing the technique, the user must be present at a location that the target visited in the past, then the user reverses time and essentially retrieves the target. This breaks universe law, as one who dies should remain dead, and thus backlash occurs. While the target of the resurrection could be forced to take the backlash, that would likely kill them, so the user of the technique typically takes the backlash for the target. The time that elapsed from the target's death to the execution of the technique has to be taken by the target, so if one is resurrecting someone who is not an Immortal, time is of the essence.
While one could not bring back a living being (because they were still alive), the user could bring back objects, including Arcana. However, the backlash for this is horrifying; it cost more to bring back a single Arcana than to get 10 new Arcana. The backlash for lower level objects, such as the Yun Mo Spaceship, is very small for Universe Masters.

## Technique Complications

The ability to take the backlash of the technique depends on the strength of the user, the size of their Divine Body, and the strength of the target. This was part of why True Gods were heavily sought after by alliances, as they could resurrect anyone below Universe Master level. Despite his strength, Primal Chaos City Leader explicitly stated that if he revived an ordinary Universe Venerable, the backlash would cause heavy injuries, and if he revived a Universe Overlord like Xi Luo Duo, the backlash alone would probably kill him.
This also meant those Universe Masters and higher who had large Divine Bodies such as Venerable Ancestral Tree were very valuable, as the size of their Divine Body meant they could resurrect more Universe Venerables. The backlash could be born by someone other than the user, so other Universe Venerables like Lord of Fan Nuo Fortress were able to assist Universe Masters by bearing the backlash with their large Divine Bodies. In addition, the more targets one resurrected, the more serious the backlash from the universe would be, so alliance leaders had to be careful when ordering their members to take on dangerous missions.

While an incredible technique, it is also not invincible. When planning to kill Kedi, the Zerg Race took precautions to make sure that Primal Chaos City Leader would be unable to revive him. Additionally, if one's soul was enslaved, they could not be saved by this technique.
