Chapter 92 – Special Authority; the First Death
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There was a sword in front of Jiang Ming on the fourth battle stage.
‘A sword? Well, it’s better than nothing!’
As the thought flitted across Jiang Ming’s head, he stretched his arm forward and picked up the sword.
A human figure appeared right in front of him. He was wearing a blue robe and had long hair. There was a sword in his hands as well.
[Battle starts!]
“God Slaying Heart Sword!”
No sooner had a light flashed on the forehead of the man than his attack came.
It was an attack on the level of the Primal Spirit Realm, which was a terrifyingly powerful move. Without a special defensive ability, it could kill one in merely a second.
Voom!
However, Jiang Ming was prepared.
The light of five elements began to flow and weave around the membrane of the sea of consciousness before turning into a simple defense barrier.
In the past, when Mu Shuiyun’s Primal Spirit had attacked him, he had been comprehending the method to defend his sea of consciousness. However, even until today, he only managed to achieve the elementary stage.
He used the Five Elemental Sambodha to form a protective barrier. The membrane of the sea of consciousness shook, but it did not break.
The man’s sword had already arrived in front of him.
Swoosh!
Jiang Ming disappeared, and when he appeared again, he was behind the man.
“Great Akasa Formless Sword Qi!”
Jiang Ming raised his hand, and nine sword energies appeared around him. He then sent them all toward the young man, cracking the akasa and crushing the divine light of protection around the young man in the process.
Suddenly, the area around him dimmed, and an ocean descended on the battlefield.
Jiang Ming knew this was the akasa projection. The young man was trying to use this to suppress her sword energies. It was rather effective, but Jiang Ming was unperturbed.
He took a deep breath, and his body began to increase in size until he became as large as a titan. This was the Three-fold Astral Transformation.
His physical strength had been increased by eight times his original strength, and his raging aura had turned into an ocean, causing the Paradis projection to shake violently.
“Nine Divine Mountain Treasures!”
Jiang Ming threw his sword away and activated another special ability.
This was also another powerful special ability given to him by the system.
Nine divine mountains had appeared on top of him, their aura so powerful that they could crush everything around it.
This special ability had three stages as well.
During the first stage, he could form a black divine mountain. When he could form nine of them, it would be considered he had cultivated it to perfection, and the black divine mountain would transform into the silver divine mountain, which was the elementary level of the second stage.
In order to master the second stage and enter the third stage, which was the golden divine mountain, he needed to form nine of them first.
Right now, Jiang Ming had reached the second stage of the special ability, which was the silver divine mountain.
“Divine Mountain Embracement!” Jiang Ming shouted. He activated the Earth Dao, the Suppression Dao, and the Decimation Dao as he wrapped his arms around the divine mountain.
The divine mountain shrank rapidly, and Jiang Ming felt himself become heavier.
“Suppress!” he shouted.
Rumble!
The divine mountain contained immense power, and Jiang Ming threw the divine mountain toward the young man.
Seeing that the divine mountain was coming straight at him while crushing everything in its path with its terrifying power, the young man finally parted his lips and shouted, “Paradis Ascension. Come forth, Thunderstorm Spears!”
The Paradis projection turned into a sheet of light and engulfed the divine mountain in an attempt to stop it. At the same time, the sword energy became spears of lightning and stormed at the divine mountain.
Unfortunately, his effort was futile.
The Paradis projection dissipated, and the Thunderstorm Spear exploded. The divine mountain crumbled away, and the young man was flying toward the back; half of his body had turned into a blood mist.
Jiang Ming was sent backward by the blast as well, but he soon regained his stance. His figure disappeared, and when he appeared again, he was behind the young man. He delivered a punch at him and crushed his head.
However, a small human figure appeared out of the young man’s forehead. It was his Primal Spirit. The small human figure turned around in the air and transformed into sword energy before darting straight at the center of Jiang Ming’s eyebrow.
“Soul Decimation!”
This was the young man’s last resort. It was fast, but unfortunately, Jiang Ming was a tad faster.
He disappeared again and reappeared 10,000 meters away.
“There’s no way I’ll let you have your way! Nine Heavens Imperial Lightning, die!”
Jiang Ming raised his hand, and a barrage of thunder rained down on the Primal Spirit, obliterating it in the process.
A Primal Spirit was agile but very fragile.
“Congratulations to Jiang Ming for clearing the fourth battle stage and gaining 8 points!
“Congratulations to Jiang Ming again for clearing the fourth battle stage. Special access permission has been granted, and please check the details through the Supreme Order later.”
Jiang Ming was surprised.
‘There’s a hidden bonus? Special access permission? What is that?’
Although Jiang Ming was curious about it, he knew now was not the right time to check on it.
Due to the enhancement of the power from the akasa, Jiang Ming was able to regain all his lost energy in the blink of an eye. He flew toward the next corridor and headed to the fifth battle stage.
Meanwhile, a new name had appeared at the bottom of the stone tablet on the corridor beside the platform.
Jiang Ming: 4 stages
Luo Heng and the others were shocked.
“He… Did he just kill his opponent?” Guang Rui asked, her voice filled with disbelief.
“Unbelievable!” Luo Heng explained, “Many geniuses have come to this place, but only those three were able to leave their names on the stone tablet, and now there’s another one! Why am I a little jealous to witness such a historic moment? Also, I can feel my blood boiling!”
“I’m feeling the same way too,” Aurum chimed in. “The opponent in the fourth battle stage is on a whole different level. They can bring forth a dimension that I don’t even know how to fight against.”
“That’s the ability that I keep losing to,” Luo Heng smiled bitterly, “Not only does the dimension has the ability to suppress and restrict our movements, but we also have to watch out for the attacks that will come at us from all directions. Defending myself is all I could manage.”
“That’s right!” Ye Qingxian joined the conversation, her eyes filled with surprise. “But he could break through that ability and defeat his opponent by fully utilizing his great power and teleportation skill!”
“You made it sound very easy, but do you know how hard it is?” Luo Heng said, “Great power? No matter how strong he is, he’s going up against someone who’s much stronger than him. Do you know how much of a combat experience one would need to carry out the feat that he just did? And the teleportation skill that you mentioned. That’s a special ability that can only be achieved after one has fully comprehended the Spatial Dao. Not many in our realm can do that. At least, I’ve never heard of anyone in our realm who can comprehend the Spatial Dao.”
“Me neither,” Ye Qingxian said as she shook her head. “Both his strength and level of intelligence are beyond imagination. I think he can clear the fifth battle stage too.”
“The fifth battle stage?”
Everyone gasped when they heard what Ye Qingxian said. All of them couldn’t help but wonder if Jiang Ming could really clear the fifth battle stage or not. Given his performance on the fourth battle stage, there was a possibility, no, he must be able to clear it. If he could clear the fifth stage, did that mean that he had broken the record?”
Luo Heng couldn’t help himself and exclaim, “Wow! If he really can clear the fifth stage, then it would be so awesome!”
“Oh, please!’ Guang Rui harrumphed.
On the fifth battle stage, Jiang Ming picked the sword as well.
He was going up to the same young man, but this time, the young man was wearing a black robe and was giving off a different vibe. His entire being was clad in the aura of calamity as if he was the manifestation of disaster.
“The Calamity Dao? And he’s in the middle stage of the Paradis Realm?” Jiang Ming became serious.
Rumble!
For a moment, the young man cast the Paradis projection on him.
Raging wind, fiery sun, falling meteorites, surging magma, and sword energies that flew here and there… The entire area was filled with all sorts of calamitous forces, and it seemed like the end of the world inside the Paradis projection.
“This is…” Jiang Ming was shocked, “Amazing! He has combined all the Sambodhas together to form the Calamity Dao!
“Wooden Dragon!”
That being said, Jiang Ming knew now was not the time to get amazed by his opponent. He swiftly calmed himself down and activated his special ability.
A huge forest appeared on the battlefield. The tree branches and vines twined against each other and formed into multiple green dragons.
As they all rushed toward the young man, they were crushed by the various calamitous forces.
“Great Manifestation Technique!”
Jiang Ming summoned two decoys and sent them to the left and right of the young man. One of them flipped his palm to form the Heaven Suppression Divine Seal, while the other activated the Nine Heavenly Cannon.
“Storm Hypostasis!”
The young man transformed into a wisp of wind and merged into the Paradis projection, causing both of the decoys to miss their attacks.
Jiang Ming had already activated the Three-fold Astral Transformation. Initially, he planned to use the decoy as a distraction while he himself attacked the young man, but his plan failed.
He even had lost track of his opponent. He could use the Human Paths Record to track him, but he refused to, for he was going to rely on his own strength to fight.
A few minutes later, both of the decoys were defeated.
His opponent’s movements were unpredictable, but luckily, he could teleport so he could still hold on.
“I can’t keep on like this. He can merge into the Paradis projection, and it’s too hard to kill him. If I want to get him, I need to get rid of the Paradis projection first!”
Jiang Ming calmed himself down and successfully found his opponent with that thought in mind.
“Found you!” he exclaimed.
He activated the Nine Divine Mountain Treasures without wasting any time and forced the young man to come out. In the meantime, the Paradis projection was distorted and disappeared.
“Die!” Jiang Ming shouted and dashed toward the young man.
The young man was not going down just like this. Countless calamitous forces fell on Jiang Ming and created many wounds on his body.
In the end, the young man was defeated, and this time, Jiang Ming had obtained 16 points.
As soon as Jiang Ming entered the battlefield on the sixth battle stage, he felt he was enveloped in a chrysalis of despair and darkness.
His opponent was a martial artist who had mastered the Light-and-Darkness Dao.
He just summoned the darkness on him, and Jiang Ming had fallen into absolute darkness. Even if he tried to teleport here and there, he couldn’t prevent himself from getting stabbed through his forehead.
“So this is death?” Jiang Ming said as he appeared in the corridor beside the platform. He touched his forehead as a chill ran down his spine.
He took a while to calm himself down and heaved out a sigh.
“Let’s see what is so special about the access permission. I hope it’s something good, like becoming the master of the Supreme Pagoda.”
As he was thinking, he pulled out the Supreme Order..
