369 Chapter 200: Grief, He Realized

Translator: 549690339

She’s dead.

Liu Ruyan did not come back.

Her opponent was a Heavenly Soul Clan member, terribly powerful, and a perfect match against her. She was completely suppressed and struggled for a long time before dying on the battle platform.

“Ruyan!” Wang Qiutong cried out in grief, her eyes turning red.

“Damn this Death Forbidden Zone, damn this God of Lost, damn this Warzone of Ten Thousand Tribes!” Ye Bai showed a hateful expression.

As for that Heavenly Soul Clan member?

He’s resented too!

But what’s even more hateful are the so-called God of Lost and the Death Forbidden Zone.

“Keep it in mind!” Jiang Ming said as he closed his eyes. He had planned to continue integrating the true meaning into his Martial Arts Golden Core, but he stopped.

His current cultivation level was basically enough.

Throughout the nearly ninety battles, he never went all out.

“Now my connection with Heaven and Earth far exceeds my imagination. I might as well take advantage of this opportunity to comprehend other powers.”

He made the decision as his thoughts turned.

After every battle, his connection with the Dao Resonance from Heaven and Earth strengthened. Now, he can enter the state of merging with Heaven and Earth at any time, as if wandering in the sea of Dao.

This time, Jiang Ming began to comprehend the way of Cause and Effect.

This was a power he had always been envious of.

As for Time?

It was too elusive, had no clue. The power of Cause and Effect still had some context to speak of, and coupled with the accumulation in Blue Star Saint Academy, he had some confidence.

As he was cultivating, Wang Qiutong and Ye Bai worked even harder.

Watching Liu Ruyan being killed right before their eyes but unable to do anything, for them, it was a heart-eating pain.

Powerlessness, anger, and killing intent filled their chests.

Time slowly flowed.

The Death Forbidden Zone was vast, but it was always enveloped with a depressing atmosphere, and there weren’t many people enjoying their free time.

Because it was too cruel.

The ninety-third battle.

After Jiang Ming applied, he appeared on a battle platform. His opponent was already standing opposite to him. When he saw the opponent’s information, his pupils shrank, and the coldness in his eyes intensified.

Killing intent was boiling.

Name: Mo Ke

Race: Heavenly Soul Clan

Victories: 95

Jiang Ming did not say anything and quickly chose his weapons.

He did not underestimate the opponent, nor dared to. He directly chose a space ring, sword, spear, and axe.

He completed the selection within just two seconds.

As he was sizing up his opponent, the opponent was also sizing him up.

Neither of them spoke, but the continuously rising momentum explained everything.

Jiang Ming’s eyes were discreet, he was already operating the Heavenly Stars Protection Skill, forming the first layer of defense on his body; especially in the Sea of Consciousness, the Yin God vibrated and directly manifested the Yin- Yang Method, and as it rotated, it formed a Yin-Yang array to protect himself.

Facing the Heavenly Soul Clan, being extra cautious wouldn’t hurt.

Across the platform.

He appeared as a human, with no difference, but Jiang Ming knew that the opponent’s body could combine and dissolve at will. The current appearance was just a general aesthetic, or perhaps a method to deceive the enemy.

The barrier in the middle disappeared.

“Martial Arts Domain!”

“God-splitting Skill!”

Jiang Ming attacked without hesitation.

Under the Martial Arts Domain, even the void seemed unable to bear such a terrifying force and began to twist.

The air was compressed into steel plates.

Mo Ke’s body directly collapsed, turning into a mass of black mist, constantly wriggling. In this form, he easily blocked the power of the Martial Arts Domain.

Then followed by the strongest attack of the Soul Way, but Mo Ke’s attack also arrived, an invisible Soul Storm.

Boom…

The invisible confrontation caused terrifying shockwaves, and the Void Battle Stage was on the verge of collapsing.

Jiang Ming’s pupils shrank.

The God-splitting Skill was broken.

This was the first time!

The opponent’s Soul Storm was still attacking.

Hum…

Jiang Ming’s body shook, his Qi expanded, and quickly rotated. The area around him immediately formed a magical scene comparable to the cosmic starry sky.

As the Soul Storm approached, it lifted endless ripples on his defense, but it held on.

“Qi can block Soul Power attacks!”

“But ten units of Qi can only block one unit of Soul Power.”

“True meaning can also block it.”

“Apart from the True Meaning of the Soul, the effect of other true meaning powers on Soul Power is reduced. However, the stronger the true meaning, the better the effect.”

“This is the terrifying aspect of Soul Way.”

“The best power to deal with him is thunder, fire, light…”

As his thoughts moved, so did a hundred and eight thousand ideas.

While thinking, Jiang Ming combined the Martial Arts Domain and Heavenly Stars Protection Method to form the strongest defense, connecting to Heaven and Earth, controlling the power of the Heavenly Domain, and greatly reducing the consumption of his Qi.

Immediately afterward, Jiang Ming took the True Meaning of Thunder as the main, changing the attributes of his Qi and turning his surroundings into a world of lightning.

Roaring…

Explosions continued, as if experiencing a catastrophe.

This forced Mo Ke to retreat.

“The sixteenth sword!”

“Lightning Strikes to Destroy Demons and Evil.”

“Human-shaped Lightning of Infinite Tribulation!”

As soon as Jiang Ming made a move, he completely restrained the opponent’s power.

However, Mo Ke was also terrifyingly powerful, shuttling through the lightning and sword light, even if he was touched by a sword, it was as if nothing had happened.

This caused Jiang Ming’s mind to shake.

“Darkness Eternal Fall!”

Mo Ke let out a low chant, and the arena transformed into pitch black, devoid of any light.

It was as if they had entered an environment of absolute darkness.

They could neither see nor hear anything.

It was eerily silent.

Even their senses were greatly weakened.

The Qi of Thunder seemed to have disappeared.

“True Path of Illusion!”

Jiang Ming instantly understood what was going on.

This was not only an illusion but also a change in reality. It was a power that Liu Ruyan had mastered, but sadly, she was killed by the person in front of them.

He was familiar with this power and not in a hurry.

In his Sea of Consciousness, the Dharma Phase trembled.

The laurel tree emitted fragrance, and the Fusang tree burned.

The bright moon hung high, shrouded in cold haze, while the great sun blazed fiercely.

As the Moon Rabbit leaped, many afterimages appeared; when the Golden Crow crowed, it burned away the darkness and filth.

The Dharma Phase split into six parts, forming a Six-Combination Array. As it operated, the darkness was dispelled, and their senses returned.

However, they found that strands of black Qi appeared on their outer layer of protective Gang Qi, like snakes drilling inward, approaching closely.

Hum hum hum…

In Jiang Ming’s mind, the Golden Crow crowed, and bursts of soul power surged out.

Outside his body, fire appeared within the thunder, and the power of thunderfire, with the help of the Golden Crow’s method, swept away the black Qi.

“One Sword of Creation of the Light!”

As the sword rose, light burst forth, dispelling all darkness and returning light to the human world.

Muffled groans could be heard from afar.

“Jiang Ming, how did you come to master so many powers that restrain me?” Mo Ke was furious beyond measure. For some reason, a trace of fear rose in his heart.

“I came to kill you specifically!” Jiang Ming replied, discovering that the opponent’s soul body had dimmed a lot.

“Thunder, fire, light!”

“True meaning of the soul!”

“One sword fusion, kill!”

Jiang Ming’s body twisted, and he also displayed the unparalleled body technique, Ten Thousand Threads. In an instant, countless figures appeared.

Each figure launched a substantial attack, engulfing Mo Ke.

The fusion of several powers was incredibly powerful, with a terrifying lethality.

“Soul of Ten Thousand Ways, Heavenly Soul Immortal, scatter!”

Engulfed, Mo Ke’s soul body suddenly crumbled, trying to break through layers of the sword’s net to escape, but still nearly half was annihilated.

“How strong! You can actually escape!” Jiang Ming’s voice was filled with disbelief.

“Fuckyou!” Mo Ke gathered on the other side, his soul body smaller and darker, “I am the immortal Heavenly Soul Clan. You almost killed me, and you still say I am strong. You mother is strong!”

“Fuck, why did I run into a human that specializes in restraining me!”

“The true meaning of light, the true meaning of thunder, the true meaning of fire, and the true meaning of the soul.”

“You fucking combined them.”

“And mastered the art of space.”

“You restrained me to death.”

“In an arena that is hard to leave.”

“I am so suffocated!”

“If this continues, I must be killed by you.”

“Heaven above, soul for spirit, true fire for burning, transformed into the light of annihilation!”

“If you don’t die, I will die!”

Mo Ke’s soul body burned with black flames, then gathered together to form a line of black light. In a flash, as if piercing through space and time, it came to Jiang Ming’s forehead.

It wanted to enter his Sea of Consciousness for a battle.

It was obviously a forbidden law among forbidden laws, even resorting to a mutually destructive method.

Do not kill the enemy, I will perish.

Ruthless, determined, and helpless, one must not help but do it.

“Martial Arts Domain, Stars Protection, Shrink!”

Jiang Ming had been prepared for this.

The power of domain and protective technique fused together, suddenly condensed around the body, causing the defense power to surge geometrically.

Especially in front of the eyebrows.

Bang…

The black light arrived, and the powerful force directly knocked Jiang Ming flying, landing over a hundred meters away. This black light still tried to drill into his eyebrows.

But no matter what, it could not break the defense.

Jiang Ming’s sword in hand turned, crushing the black light.

“I can’t even break the defense?”

With self-doubt, Mo Ke vanished completely.

Jiang Ming also breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t break it, but his strength had diminished too much. Even if he used his last forbidden move, his power was ultimately limited.

After all, Jiang Ming’s final defense was the ultimate condensation of the Martial Arts Domain and the Stars Protection Technique, causing his defense to skyrocket.

How could Mo Ke break it?

“Ruyan, take care. This is the first step in my revenge. You watch; one day, I will overthrow the Death Forbidden Zone, break the Lost Land, and slay the God of Lost.”

Jiang Ming whispered.

Victory: 93!

Returning to the lotus leaf, Jiang Ming closed his eyes. His battle with Mo Ke had touched him somehow, as if there were slight inspirations in front of him.

He didn’t want to miss them.

In his senses, strands of silk thread floated through the air.

He gently plucked them with his hand, and the strange vibration echoed in his heart.

Jiang Ming had an epiphany.
