Chapter 474
Battle of the Prodigy's Talent! Ten Thousand Merits
Chapter 474 Battle of Prodigies' Talents! A Million Merit Points (Two Chapters Combined, Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Ling Xuan's figure vanished silently, transforming into a wisp of light that merged into the void, leaving not even a trace of his presence.
Jiang Ye did not turn around, but he could clearly sense that the vast divine thought still enveloped the Mingxin Palace, like an invisible net that kept all potential dangers at bay.
But Jiang Ye didn't relax at all.
He had previously thought that with the protection of Venerable Bai, Huanglong Main Star was absolutely safe, but the assassination attempt by Huihe completely shattered his understanding.
Even though he was in the heart of the Huanglong civilization, there were still people who dared to attack him.
This intensified Jiang Ye's sense of crisis.
"Even the main star of Huanglong is not absolutely safe," Jiang Ye thought to himself.
I was too naive in the past.
"We must improve our strength as soon as possible."
"To advance to the level of a prodigy." Jiang Ye's belief grew stronger.
Only by becoming a prodigy can his probability of becoming a god increase from 30% to over 50%.
Only by becoming a god!
Only then can he truly possess the power to contend with the gods, avenge the millions of souls lost on Earth, and protect everything he wants to protect.
Jiang Ye's gaze fell on his palm, and every detail of the battle just now flashed through his mind, especially the moment when he finally condensed his innate divine power.
In the life-or-death crisis just now.
In dire straits, he forcefully integrated the heat of the Star-Burning Strike, the weight of the Star River Divine Body, the grandeur of the Void Dharma Image, the eeriness of the Nine Netherworld Ten Thousand Demon Palm, and the annihilation of the White Dragon Myriad Phenomena Return to Stillness, among many other true god-level techniques.
It condensed the prototype of its innate divine power—[Star Burning Annihilation].
When this move was first condensed, even Jiang Ye himself was shocked.
It not only blocked Gray's innate divine power, the "Annihilation Claw," but also protected his life from the aftershocks of his self-destruction at the demigod's limit.
"This [Star Burning Annihilation] is indeed a powerful weapon for those of higher ranks."
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Ye's eyes, and a golden flame slowly appeared at his fingertips. The flame contained the weight and desolation of the Milky Way, which was the prototype of the power of [Star Burning Annihilation].
The power of this move far exceeded his expectations.
If it is refined and perfected in the future, and its laws are fully integrated, its power will surely be even more terrifying, and it may become one of his trump cards in the fight against the gods.
"pity."
"It's still in its early stages, and its power isn't strong enough yet." Jiang Ye shook his head inwardly. "Moreover, it will require a lot of energy to unleash it again."
Using [Star Burn Annihilation] once almost drained Jiang Ye's strength.
You must know that he is now at the peak of the third-tier demigod, and his energy is immense.
It can drain you dry in one go, that's unbelievable.
and.
In the battle just now, he was in dire straits and only managed to unleash this move by bursting forth with his potential. He might not be able to use it again now.
Jiang Ye took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, and turned to fly towards the Red Mansion.
The gathering at the Red Mansion is related to a massive amount of merit points, which he cannot miss. These merit points can be used to exchange for a large number of cultivation resources to help him improve his strength as soon as possible, perfect his innate divine power, and prepare for the Hundred Star God War.
"Your Highness."
"Greetings, Your Highness." The divine guards along the way bowed respectfully upon seeing him.
These powerful figures looked at Jiang Ye with awe and curiosity, and some of the younger guards even looked at him with admiration.
The assassination attempt was so commotion that it has spread throughout the various clans in the core territory. Everyone knows that Ye Jiang, the disciple of Venerable Bai, survived the self-destruction of a demigod and even condensed his innate divine power.
Jiang Ye ignored the stares and, with a flash, transformed into a streak of light, quickly arriving at the Red Mansion.
The Red Mansion is a place specially used by the Crimson God Clan to hold small gatherings for the younger generation. It is entirely crimson, thousands of feet tall, and exudes an ancient and majestic aura. From a distance, it looks like a crimson divine mountain standing between heaven and earth.
Just got to the door.
Jiang Ye could already hear the sounds of discussion coming from inside.
Have you heard?
"Ye Jiang, the disciple of Venerable Bai, was just assassinated on the edge of the core area!"
"It's said that a demigod at the peak of his power self-destructed! Not only did Ye Jiang survive, he also condensed his innate divine ability!"
"Ye Jiang is only a third-tier demigod, right? How could he survive against a demigod at the peak of his power?"
"I don't think so. He survived perhaps because of Venerable Bai's protection, or perhaps because he had some kind of life-saving treasure."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I saw the battlefield just now. The power of that self-destruction was such that even a fourth-tier demigod might not have survived. Ye Jiang survived because of his own strength."
"Exactly! Moreover, he has condensed his innate divine power, which cannot be achieved with just treasures."
Discussions were rising and falling, clearly indicating that news of Jiang Ye's assassination attempt had already spread.
That's normal.
In a Level 2 civilization, there are numerous information channels, and any information spreads very quickly.
Jiang Ye paused for a moment, then stepped into the Red Building.
His appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention. The noisy discussions stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at him with curiosity, awe, amazement, and some doubt.
At this time.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Jiang."
"You're really amazing." A voice exclaimed in amazement: "I felt the commotion just now. An assassination attempt by a demigod at the limit. Other third-tier demigods wouldn't have been able to dodge it so easily."
A beautiful figure in crimson walked gracefully toward Jiangye.
It was Chi Jiuxin.
"Just lucky."
Jiang Ye smiled and said, "Thanks to Senior Ling Xuan for arriving in time, otherwise I wouldn't have survived."
"Even with Senior Ling Xuan's help, it's already amazing that you survived that kind of attack!" Chi Jiuxin blinked her beautiful eyes: "I just heard someone say that you've condensed your innate divine power?"
"It's just a prototype, nothing special," Jiang Ye said, shaking his head without showing off.
"Fellow Daoist is too modest." Chi Jiuxin's beautiful eyes gleamed with a strange light.
Innate supernatural powers are not something that everyone can condense.
The word "supernatural power" originally refers to divine means.
In most cases, only fourth-order demigods, or even those at the pinnacle of demigod power, can condense it.
Jiang Ye didn't care about Chi Jiuxin's thoughts.
At this moment, his gaze swept across the crowd, and he suddenly paused slightly.
A girl in white was sitting in the corner.
The young girl was aloof and ethereal, like a fairy untouched by worldly affairs. She sat alone in a corner, holding a cup of tea, quietly watching the crowd around her. When she saw Jiang Ye looking over, she nodded slightly.
"Wang Zilu?"
"Strange, it feels a little different from before," Jiang Ye thought with a hint of doubt.
In the past, Wang Zilu was not so aloof.
Just then.
Two figures walked over; it was Prince Huang and Bai Cantian.
Prince Huang was clad in golden armor, exuding a powerful aura. His eyes were filled with intense fighting spirit, and every step he took carried a majestic momentum, as if the ground beneath his feet was trembling.
The other person was dressed in a white robe, with the phantom of a towering tree that seemed to pierce the universe floating behind his head, its veins flowing with a warm divine light. He was none other than Bai Cantian, the pride of the Bai tribe.
"Junior Brother Ye Jiang."
“We’ve all heard about what happened just now. You actually managed to withstand an attack from a demigod at the limit?” Prince Huang’s eyes sharpened.
His voice was loud and clear, carrying a powerful momentum.
“Junior Brother’s combat power is astonishing, making me itchy to fight. How about we have a spar?” Prince Huang said with a smile, “It would be good for us to see Junior Brother’s strength.”
The words fell.
The surrounding powerful warriors immediately erupted in excitement.
"Prince Huang is a prodigy with the strength of a peak fourth-order demigod, yet he actually took the initiative to challenge Ye Jiang to a duel?"
"Are you bullying him?" "Don't underestimate Ye Jiang; after all, he survived the attack of a demigod."
"So what? That demigod at the limit is merely extraordinary; how can he be compared to a prodigy with exceptional talent?"
“I bet on Prince Huang to win. His [Imperial Law] is extremely terrifying and can suppress all laws.”
"I bet on Fellow Daoist Ye Jiang to win, and I'll award him 100,000 merit points
"Aren't you afraid of going bankrupt?"
"Hehe, I believe in his strength. To survive a self-destruction at the peak of a demigod's power, he must have something extraordinary about him."
Bet on merit!
This is one of the main ways to obtain the Glory Dragon Merit during the Red Mansion Gathering.
Seeing this, an elder of the Crimson God Clan stepped forward with a smile and said, "Since everyone is so interested, I will preside over this betting session and record everyone's betting amount and target. After the competition, we will distribute merit points according to the odds."
Soon, someone calculated the odds.
Prince Huang's odds are 1 to 1, while Jiang Ye's odds are 1 to 3. Clearly, most people don't think he can beat the gifted Prince Huang.
at the same time.
"Challenging me to a duel?" A hint of fighting spirit flashed in Jiang Ye's eyes.
Just right.
He also wanted to know just how strong he was after he condensed his innate divine power, and how he compared to geniuses with exceptional talent.
However, Prince Huang was already at the peak of the fourth-order demigod, and the gap between him and Jiang Ye in terms of realm was too great.
"I will suppress my strength."
"But at most, it can only suppress him to the early stage of a fourth-tier demigod." Prince Huang stared at Jiang Ye: "How about it? Are you willing to fight me?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ye immediately stopped hesitating.
The gap between him and the early stage of a fourth-tier demigod is not that great.
"it is good."
"Then let's have a friendly spar, but stop when we've reached our limit," Jiang Ye readily agreed.
"Great!" Prince Huang laughed heartily, his fighting spirit growing even stronger: "If you defeat me, I will offer you one million merit points."
"One million?" Jiang Ye was slightly taken aback. This was no small sum; it was almost the entire fortune of most people who had reached the ninth level of breakthrough.
The other party has offered such a large sum of money.
Correspondingly, if Jiang Ye loses, he will also have to pay out one million merit points.
"Row."
“No problem.” Jiang Ye didn’t hesitate much; he had come to test his strength.
"Then let's go to the martial arts arena! Let's have a good spar!" Prince Huang laughed loudly.
The crowd parted to make way for the martial arts arena, their eyes filled with anticipation, clearly eager to see the outcome of the match.
The training platform is made of special materials and can withstand attacks from the demigod level. It is covered with law runes and emits a faint light, which is enough to offset the aftershocks of the battle and will not harm those around it.
soon.
Jiang Ye and Prince Huang walked onto the martial arts stage, while Bai Cantian stood below, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"Brother, be careful!"
Prince Huang let out a deep shout, and the golden aura around him surged, the power of the laws condensing into a golden longsword.
The longsword was imbued with the majestic laws of the imperial way, exuding an aura of supreme dominance.
"Slash!" Prince Huang swung his sword fiercely.
In an instant, a golden sword light tore through the void, emitting a piercing whistling sound, and slashed towards Jiang Ye's body.
Wherever it passed, the void trembled.
Even the runes on the martial arts stage began to tremble, as if they were about to be destroyed by this terrifying power. The surrounding space began to distort, forming black cracks.
Without the obstruction of the martial arts arena, this strike would have been enough to sweep across an area spanning thousands of miles.
With a thought, Jiang Ye's body lit up with star patterns, shining brightly with golden light, and a vast power of the galaxy erupted from his body.
[Star River Divine Body]
"Boom!" He punched the golden longsword, his fist surrounded by the heavy aura of the Milky Way, each star pattern radiating a dazzling light, as if countless stars were twinkling on his fist.
"Oh!"
The two clashed, and the arena trembled instantly. Golden power of law and starlight spread out, forming a terrifying shockwave that swept across the entire arena.
[Mayfly Shaking Tree - Advanced Level - No Critical Hit Result Triggered]
Jiang Ye staggered and staggered back several steps, cracks appearing on the training platform beneath his feet.
Prince Huang, however, remained as steady as a mountain, standing calmly in place without retreating in the slightest.
"Ye Jiang is at a disadvantage."
"As expected, Ye Jiang is still lacking compared to the talents of geniuses."
"Being able to withstand one of Prince Huang's attacks is already quite impressive." The many powerful figures below were not surprised.
The gap between genius talent and extraordinary talent is even greater than the gap between a third-tier demigod and a fourth-tier demigod.
To date, this applies to the entire Huanglong civilization.
Only Lan Tianhou was capable of fighting against a prodigy with his extraordinary talent.
"Pity."
“When fighting against a prodigy, it’s quite difficult to trigger a critical hit.” A hint of regret flashed in Jiang Ye’s eyes: “A prodigy’s luck is too strong.”
The probability of triggering a critical hit depends entirely on the strength of one's luck.
In other words, it's a battle for destiny.
If Jiang Ye's luck overwhelms his opponent, then he can naturally deliver critical hits with every move; otherwise, he can only rely on luck.
the other side.
"So easy?" A hint of surprise flashed in Prince Huang's eyes as well.
Although he did not use his full strength just now, under the activation of the Imperial Law, even a peak fourth-order demigod might not be able to withstand it.
Jiang Ye's physical strength has completely exceeded his expectations.
"Interesting, let's go again!" The fighting spirit in Prince Huang's eyes intensified, and the golden aura around him grew even stronger.
"Splash!"
A vast amount of law power converged, forming a huge golden pillar of light. The pillar was surrounded by rich imperial laws, and an overwhelming aura swept out.
At the top of the pillar of light, a golden emperor's phantom appeared, exuding an aura of supreme authority. This phantom was the ultimate manifestation of Prince Huang's imperial laws, as if an ancient emperor had descended to earth.
"The Laws of the Imperial Way?"
"This is a kind of ability that geniuses are born with," Jiang Ye understood this in his heart.
Gifted with extraordinary talent, they are born with the ability to control destiny!
This so-called imperial law is actually a manifestation of the art of destiny, and ordinary people cannot comprehend this law.
In other words, this law, enhanced by the art of destiny, can have an overwhelming effect on most powerful individuals!
Just like right now.
Under that overwhelming aura of imperial power, even an ordinary fourth-tier demigod would probably kneel down instantly, filled with awe.
"It's time to get serious." Jiang Ye took a deep breath.
next moment.
Star patterns surged around him, and the Great Void Dharma Image slowly emerged, rising ten thousand feet tall from the ground, with the aura of the Milky Way swirling around it.
The Dharma image clasped its hands together and slammed them towards the golden pillar of light, unleashing boundless and vast galactic power.
In an instant, Jiang Ye had a sudden inspiration.
