Instant Kill! Shocking the Entire Audience
Chapter 482 Instant Kill! Shocking the Entire Audience (Two Chapters Combined, Requesting Monthly Tickets)
As the ripples in space dissipated, Jiang Ye stood on a crimson wasteland.
The rocks beneath my feet are cracked and full of fissures. In the distance, there are continuous blood-red mountain ranges. The sky is covered by dark purple clouds, making it oppressive and hard to breathe.
Unlike the outside world, the power of heaven and earth here is exceptionally mixed, and it is also mixed with a trace of cold, alien aura.
"kill!"
A roar was the first sound to ring out.
Dozens of figures leaped out from behind the rocks, clad in black armor from the Cangxu civilization, their faces contorted with rage, exuding the aura of second-tier demigods.
He was a demigod from the Cangxu civilization.
The Nine Profound Trial Array actually simulated a battlefield of the enemy race, directly spawning a large number of alien opponents.
"Only at the second tier?"
"It seems this formation doesn't evolve based on cultivation level." Jiang Ye's eyes were calm, and he didn't even activate any supernatural powers.
He raised his hand and waved it, a flash of black light disappearing from his palm.
A slap!
"Puff puff~"
As the palm swept across, dozens of second-tier demigods were sent flying backward like kites, their armor shattered, and their bodies turned into blood mist in mid-air.
They didn't even have the right to fight back.
[Points +500]
The points notification sounded repeatedly.
Jiang Ye continued walking into the depths of the wasteland without stopping.
Just a hundred meters away, a cloud of dust billowed ahead as hundreds of figures sped toward them, all exuding the aura of third-tier demigods, their armor bearing eerie runes that shimmered with strange light.
"kill!"
More than a hundred powerful warriors from Cangxu roared in unison, unleashing a barrage of alien supernatural abilities, including black bone spikes, chilling demonic flames, and twisted blades of law.
Jiang Ye's body was surrounded by surging laws, and the Void Law quietly unfolded, directly dissolving most of the attack.
He blurred into a blur and disappeared into the crowd.
His palm strikes were as swift as lightning; with each strike, a powerful warrior from Cangxu would perish.
With his Star River Divine Body at its peak, he weaved through the crowd like a tiger among sheep, and no third-tier demigod could withstand a single move from him.
In just ten breaths, hundreds of corpses covered the ground, their blood staining the cracked rocks red.
[Points +1500]
Jiang Ye's score instantly surpassed two thousand, but he remained unmoved.
He knew very well that these were just appetizers.
Sure enough, the earth trembled violently.
From the distant crimson mountains, hundreds of figures emerged, their auras powerful, all of them fourth-order demigods!
The majority of them were at the early stage of the fourth rank, with dozens at the middle stage of the fourth rank and even a few at the late stage of the fourth rank.
"It's finally here."
A sharp glint flashed in Jiang Ye's eyes. His divine power surged slowly within him, no longer holding back, but he only used 30% of his strength.
Outside, at the Radiant Dragon Temple.
On the giant light screen, the rankings of Group 49 were rapidly updated.
All eyes were drawn to that rapidly rising name.
"Ye Jiang? Three thousand points!"
"It's only been a few minutes, right? This efficiency is almost on par with Prince Huang."
"Who said he'd only get 3,000 points at most? He's already reached that at the very beginning!"
Exclamations rose and fell, and the discussion in the hall suddenly intensified.
Everyone watched as Ye Jiang's score on the screen jumped at an astonishing speed, increasing significantly with each refresh.
In the Bai ethnic group camp, Bai Cantian stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on the two characters "Ye Jiang" on the light screen.
He was dressed in white, with the laws of mending the heavens flowing around him, exuding transcendence, yet a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes at this moment.
"Three thousand points, not bad efficiency," Bai Cantian said softly.
To achieve a similar scoring efficiency to him in the trial of a fourth-tier demigod is already quite remarkable.
In the Qing Clan camp, Qing Gu sat upright on a stone chair, toying with a blue leaf in his hand.
When he saw Jiang Ye's score break through three thousand, his eyes narrowed as well.
"That's interesting."
"You've reached 3,000 points so quickly."
"But that's about it, at most it will stop at four or five thousand points." Qing Gu knew very well where the upper limit of the mid-stage of the fourth rank was.
He casually tossed the leaf aside, his gaze returning to the crimson light, brimming with fighting spirit.
In Qing Gu's eyes, only Chi Guang was his opponent.
Crimson God Clan Formation.
"Sister, Fellow Daoist Ye Jiang is amazing."
"Three thousand points so quickly!" Chi Jiuxin clenched her fists excitedly.
A smile appeared on Chi Guang's face, but he was not surprised.
She had long known that Jiang Ye was no ordinary person.
the other side.
The atmosphere on the high platform where the three venerable ones were located was completely different.
The Black Clan Venerable, dressed in a black robe, stared sharply at the small light screen in front of him.
The scene inside the trial array was clearly displayed on the light screen.
Something's not right.
The Black Clan Venerable spoke in a deep voice, his tone filled with surprise: "He dealt with the mid-stage fourth rank too easily."
"It seems to be the aura of a mid-stage fourth rank, but the power he uses and the application of laws are definitely not at the mid-stage level."
The royal elder nodded, his eyes filled with doubt.
"This child's spiritual strength far surpasses that of the mid-stage of the fourth rank; he has probably already reached the peak."
"Bai Qiong, your disciple has been hiding his abilities very well."
The two looked at Venerable White at the same time.
The White Venerable was dressed in a white star-patterned robe, his expression calm and composed, as if he had already expected it.
"These are just minor tricks, not worth mentioning," Venerable White said calmly.
He had witnessed Jiang Ye's growth.
This is just the beginning.
Inside the trial array, a crimson wasteland.
The combined attack of hundreds of fourth-tier Cangxu experts was still no match for Jiang Ye.
There is no need to use any supernatural powers or techniques.
With a casual palm strike, the wind from the palm struck down many early-stage fourth-tier experts from Cangxu.
He only needs two moves to defeat an opponent at the mid-stage of the fourth tier.
One move shattered the opponent's supernatural power, and another suppressed his body.
Within minutes, the bodies on the ground had piled up like a mountain.
Jiang Ye's points also soared from three thousand to four thousand, four thousand five thousand, and five thousand!
The moment Jiang Ye's points surpassed five thousand, a thought struck him.
He glanced at the few dozen remaining late-stage fourth-tier Cangxu experts, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
"almost."
"If we continue like this, it will become too conspicuous," Jiang Ye thought to himself.
The White Venerable's words still echoed in my ears: do not reveal your full strength too early.
Five thousand points.
"That's enough to help the Crimson God Clan pull back their ranking." Jiang Ye understood this.
enough.
Jiang Ye swayed and withdrew from the battle.
He raised his hand and pressed it to his brow, activating the exit rune of the trial array.
"Buzz!"
A beam of white light enveloped his body, and he vanished from the crimson wasteland in an instant.
Outside, at the Radiant Dragon Temple.
On the screen, Ye Jiang's score was fixed at 5,200 points.
Immediately afterwards, his figure appeared on the teleportation platform in the center of the hall.
"Five thousand two hundred points?"
"This means that he can defeat a late-stage fourth-tier Cangxu expert."
"That's unbelievable. Just a few years ago, he was only at the peak of the third tier, right?"
"Fortunately, he's no match for Prince Huang and the others, otherwise he would be truly monstrous." Many powerful figures discussed among themselves, some pleased, some surprised, and some relieved.
After all, not everyone wants to see such a powerful genius emerge from the Crimson God Clan. "This guy..."
"He really did reach 5,000 points." Qing Gu's expression darkened slightly, but then returned to its usual coldness, though the disdain in his eyes had lessened.
the other side.
Jiang Ye had just steadied himself when several figures quickly approached.
"it is good!"
"Junior Brother Ye Jiang, you are indeed amazing." Prince Huang stepped forward first, smiling as he patted Ye Jiang's shoulder: "Five thousand two hundred points, that's really beyond my expectations."
Chi Guang also came over, her face bright and beautiful, her smile sincere, her eyes full of gratitude.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Jiang, thank you very much."
"The Crimson God Clan's ranking has finally been brought back." Crimson Light bowed gracefully. "Leave the rest to me. I won't let you down."
Chi Jiuxin and the other geniuses of the Crimson God Clan also stepped forward to express their gratitude, speaking respectfully.
"It was nothing, don't worry about it," Jiang Ye said with a slight smile.
Just as he had anticipated.
Five thousand points were just enough to help the Crimson God Clan pull back their ranking.
Just then, Venerable White's voice rang out again.
"The first phase of the trial has ended."
"The top 200 in each group will qualify for the Hundred Star God Battle."
"The top ten from each group, a total of 500 people, will be ranked according to their points from the previous round. The rankings will be announced!"
"Anyone who disagrees with the rankings may come up on stage to challenge. If the challenge is successful, the rankings will be swapped; if the challenge is unsuccessful, the rankings will remain unchanged," Venerable White said slowly.
After those words, everyone understood the rules for the second phase.
Ring Challenge!
Rankings are based on points from the previous round. Anyone who disagrees with the ranking can go up on stage to challenge the top-ranked contestants.
As soon as he finished speaking, Venerable White raised his hand and waved it.
With a whoosh, a huge golden list slowly appeared in the sky above the main hall.
The list is filled with names, from first to fifth hundredth.
[First Place: Bai Cantian, 15,000 points]
Second place: Prince Huang, 13,000 points
Third place: Chi Guang, 8500 points
[Fourth Place: Qing Gu, 8400 points]
Everyone's eyes searched downwards.
Soon, someone found Jiang Ye's name.
[Rank 450: Ye Jiang, 5200 points]
"Ye Jiang has also advanced to the second round."
"450? I think I can take on that challenge."
"Those in front of and behind him are all late-stage fourth-tier powerhouses, none of them easy to deal with." Many powerhouses looked at the rankings.
In a sense.
This ranking comprises the five hundred strongest demigods of the Huanglong Civilization!
None of those who made it into the group were weak.
"The ranking is still a bit low."
"The Crimson God Clan is in some danger," Jiang Ye said thoughtfully, looking at the rankings.
There are too few strong individuals from the Crimson God Clan on this ranking.
Although they exist, their numbers are far lower than those of the Qing Clan and the Royal Clan.
"The challenge begins!"
The voice of the White Venerable rang out again.
As soon as the rankings stabilized, a figure leaped up and landed on the arena in the center of the hall.
It is Qinghua of the Qing ethnic group.
He was dressed in a green robe, and the laws of plants and trees flowed around him. His aura was powerful, clearly indicating that he was at the late stage of the fourth rank.
Qinghua stood on the arena, her gaze fixed on Jiang Ye, and grinned.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Jiang, I'm so sorry for offending you!"
“I am ranked 480th, and you are ranked 450th, ahead of me.”
"I can't beat any of the previous opponents, so after thinking it over, I have no choice but to try you!"
His tone was frank, tinged with a hint of helplessness, yet also brimming with confidence.
In his view, Jiang Ye's aura was only at the mid-stage of the fourth rank.
If they were to actually fight, this veteran late-stage fourth-tier fighter would definitely not lose.
Jiang Ye remained calm, his figure flickered, and he transformed into a streak of light, landing on the arena. From the outside, it was just an arena, but once inside, it felt like entering a small, vast world.
"Please," Jiang Ye said calmly.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony!"
Qinghua shouted loudly, and the laws governing plants and trees around him surged.
"Green Vine Binds the God!"
Countless green vines sprouted from the ground, like blooming green lotuses, instantly covering an area of thousands of miles.
"Whoosh~" These vines, like venomous snakes, coiled around Jiang Ye, covered with sharp barbs and exuding a corrosive aura.
This is the signature technique of the Qing Clan. Each vine is a thousand meters thick and infinitely long, enough to kill a late-stage fourth-tier expert!
Inside the main hall, everyone held their breath in concentration.
Qing Gu sat on the stone chair, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
On the arena, facing the overwhelming green vines, Jiang Ye didn't even raise his hand.
He merely flashed with starlight around him, and the aura of the [Star River Divine Body] was quietly released.
There were no unusual phenomena, only an invisible pressure.
"Snap! Snap!"
Those resilient vines, upon touching the starlight, broke and withered like fragile, dry grass.
Qinghua's expression changed drastically, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Before he could react, Jiang Ye had already moved swiftly and appeared in front of him.
He raised his hand and struck out with his palm.
The starlight condensed, but suddenly receded just before striking Qinghua.
The palm strike landed on Qinghua's chest, causing no harm, but it carried a terrifying power as vast as the ocean.
"Oh!"
Qinghua's body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, landing heavily outside the arena and sprawling on its back.
one move.
Defeat Qinghua, a late-stage fourth-tier cultivator!
Jiangye, victory!
The entire Radiant Dragon Temple fell into a deathly silence in an instant.
You could hear a pin drop.
"One move? Instant kill?"
"How did you do that?"
"Ye Jiang's strength is actually this strong?" Many powerful figures stared wide-eyed at the black-clad figure on the arena, filled with shock.
Qinghua is a veteran genius at the late stage of the fourth rank, yet he couldn't even withstand a single move from Jiang Ye?
On the high platform, the Black Clan Venerable and the Royal Clan Venerable exchanged a glance, both seeing the astonishment in each other's eyes.
"Defeat a late-stage fourth-tier opponent in one move? That's something no mid-stage fourth-tier opponent could do!"
"This child has probably already reached the peak of the fourth rank!"
"Bai Qiong, you've been hiding your true abilities very well." The two looked at Venerable Bai again, their voices filled with amazement.
This is different from the formation we just saw.
The late-stage fourth rank in the formation is merely a simulation created by the formation and is far from being comparable to reality.
The White Venerable remained calm and composed, but a subtle smile played at the corners of his lips.
Peak of the fourth tier?
No, if Ye Jiang were to truly unleash his full power, you would all be utterly astonished!
On the stage, Jiang Ye stood with his palms closed, his expression calm.
He looked at Qinghua outside the arena and smiled slightly: "Thank you for your concession."
Qinghua got up from the ground, her face full of shame.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Jiang, your strength is outstanding."
"I accept my defeat wholeheartedly!" Qinghua sighed and bowed to Jiang Ye.
Defeated in one move.
This disparity in strength left him with absolutely no reason to feel resentful.
After saying that, Qinghua turned around and walked off the stage, returning to the Qing Clan's camp.
The ring challenge fell into a brief silence because of Jiang Ye's move.
Everyone knows that Ye Jiang, ranked 450th, is a tough nut to crack.
not to be trifled!
