Critical Immortal Jade
Zhuge Xiang, relying on his immense HP, now completely disregards the Demon Dragon Emperor. His dense and ferocious attacks completely abandon defense, unleashing overwhelming power. He doesn't even take a powerful Asura Emperor tier seriously.
The Demon Dragon Emperor knew he was doomed to lose, which fueled his ferocity. Since he was going to lose anyway, he figured it was better to lose fair and square than to lose in frustration. So, in the end, the Demon Dragon Emperor also abandoned his defenses.
The fierce battle, the brutal battle between Zhuge Xiang and the Demon Dragon Emperor at the peak of Sole Dominance Mountain shocked all the spectators. They never expected that the decisive battle, which had been full of twists and turns, would turn into this, with both of them completely abandoning their defenses and engaging in a fierce fight.
Ultimately, the Demon Dragon Emperor's strength was indeed superior to Zhuge Xiang's. With the mentality that the Desperate Soldier Will Win, and since the Demon Dragon Emperor had no scruples, the strength he displayed was still terrifying. In the battle between the two, the Demon Dragon Emperor firmly suppressed Zhuge Xiang this time, and both of their HP shrank rapidly like deflated balloons.
When he was timid and hesitant, his momentum was far inferior to Zhuge Xiang's, so much so that the speed at which the Demon Dragon Emperor's HP decreased was not much different from that of Zhuge Xiang. However, at this moment, when he was fighting for his life, the Demon Dragon Emperor 'Zhuge Xiang's HP Character Interface were as high as 10 million, the speed at which his HP decreased was still terrifying.
The two sides exchanged blows, each punch landing with a resounding thud, not the sound of techniques clashing, but the pure force of their attacks. The brutality of the fight deeply stirred the fighting spirit of the experts from Sole Dominance Mountain. Like the Heavenly Sound War Drum, the sight stirred their hearts, making them yearn to roll up their sleeves and join the fierce battle.
Indeed, having abandoned all defenses, the Desperate Soldier Will Win. The power unleashed by the Demon Dragon Emperor at this moment far exceeded his own strength, causing Zhuge Xiang's seemingly insurmountable HP to plummet rapidly. However, Zhuge Xiang's strength at full power should not be underestimated. Although the battle between the two was fierce, in the end, it would still be a matter of life and death.
When the strong meet, the strong are defeated, and the even stronger prevail...
Finally, the Demon Dragon Emperor, with over 2 million HP remaining, also had his HP depleted. His incredibly strong body collapsed heavily to the ground. However, Zhuge Xiang was not far from unscathed either. He originally had 10 million HP, but when he finally killed the Demon Dragon Emperor, he only had a little over 4 million HP left.
The Demon Dragon Emperor unleashed his final power, sacrificing over 2 million HP to take away nearly 6 million of Zhuge Xiang's life points. Such strength was astonishing.
Zhuge Xiang, his face pale, even with several broken bones in his body, watched as the Demon Dragon Emperor finally collapsed, his HP depleted, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, even a rabbit will bite when cornered. Let alone the Demon Dragon Emperor? The power he unleashed at the end even shocked Zhuge Xiang. He exchanged over 2 million of his HP for nearly 6 million of Zhuge Xiang's, which shows just how powerful he was.
Fortunately, although the power that the Demon Dragon Emperor unleashed at the end was indeed Human Heart, in the end, Zhuge Xiang's HP was strong enough to hold out until the Demon Dragon Emperor fell. With more than 4 million HP remaining, Zhuge Xiang, although injured, clearly still had the strength to fight again. It was self-evident who won this Duel.
" In the Quarterfinals, the third match, Zhuge Xiang faced off against the Demon Dragon Emperor, Zhuge Xiang emerged victorious."
As the Demon Dragon Emperor collapsed with his HP depleted, the Great Emperor of the Sacred War announced that the final match of the Quarterfinals, the battle between the Thunder Flame Thunder Flame Emperor and the Poison Emperor, would begin without any suspense.
"Ding! You defeated the Demon Dragon Emperor, a level above your own, and gained 930 million Experience Points and Critical Immortal Jade."
As Zhuge Xiang won, the Mechanical System Prompt as expected. Sure enough, his cultivation level was forcibly raised to the level of the Asura Emperor. The Demon Dragon Emperor's strength was even stronger than that of the White Bone Emperor. When the White Bone Emperor was killed, Zhuge Xiang only gained 800 million Experience Points and obtained the Sun Chasing Boots, Half-Immortal Artifact Grade. Now, with the Demon Dragon Emperor killed, he actually gained more than 900 million Experience Points.
With over 900 million Experience Points, Zhuge Xiang's cultivation level rose accordingly, directly breaking through to the Sixth Layer of the Tribulation Crossing Realm. With the improvement in cultivation level, Zhuge Xiang's overall strength naturally also increased to a certain extent. In addition, with the support of the Yin Yang Demonic Rings and the Night Emblem, Zhuge Xiang's comprehensive strength can be said to have improved once again.
"What kind of good thing is the Critical Immortal Jade?" The 900 million Experience Points that raised his cultivation to the Sixth Layer the Tribulation Crossing Realm were certainly gratifying, but Zhuge Xiang was still extremely curious about this Critical Immortal Jade.
Defeating the White Bone Emperor yielded the Sun Chasing Boots, Half-Immortal Artifact Grade. Therefore, this Critical Immortal Jade must be a treasure no less valuable than Half-Immortal Artifact, right?
Opening the Bag Space, the semi-illusory Bag Space page indeed contained a piece of celestial jade radiating brilliance. The celestial jade was about the size of a fist. As Zhuge Xiang's gaze fell on it, the information and data naturally appeared in Zhuge Xiang's eyes.
"Critical Immortal Jade (Immortal Artifact- grade Material): Requires a Half-Immortal Artifact Grade weapon and inlay material. Increases critical strike chance by 20% and critical strike damage by 3 times. Requires Grandmaster Artifact Forger."
Zhuge Xiang's face lit up with joy upon seeing the information on the Critical Immortal Jade, but he quickly became somewhat exasperated. It increased the critical strike chance by 20% and tripled critical strike damage; the attributes of this Critical Immortal Jade were undeniably powerful. On average, a critical strike could be triggered once every five attacks, and the tripled damage certainly qualified it as a material worthy of being called Immortal Artifact. However, embedding this Critical Immortal Jade required a master-level Artifact Forger, which presented Zhuge Xiang with a dilemma.
Both Artifact Forger and Pill Alchemist are divided into four levels: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and grandmaster. These levels are similar to cultivation levels. Beginner Artificer can only forge and repair Magic Artifact, intermediate blacksmiths can only forge and repair magical Treasure Artifact, advanced blacksmiths can repair and forge Lingbao, and as for Half-Immortal Artifact and Immortal Artifacts, grandmasters are naturally required.
Moreover, the level of Artifact Forger also requires cultivation as a foundation. Intermediate Artificer must have Deity Transformation stage, Advanced Artifact Forger must have a cultivation level of at least the Void Returning Stage, and as for the Grandmaster level, it naturally requires a powerhouse at the Immortal-Demon level.
Although Zhuge Xiang is also Artifact Forger, Pill Alchemist, and even an Appraisal, his professional level is only barely at the advanced level. As for the grandmaster level? Even if Zhuge Xiang 'Zhuge Xiang cultivation reaches the Immortal-Demon level, he can forget about raising his Artifact Forger level to the grandmaster level within three to five years. After all, cultivation can be quickly improved through quests and rewards from challenging higher-level opponents, but the proficiency of Life Profession can only be accumulated by repairing and forging equipment piece by piece. There is no other way to cheat or take shortcuts.
"It seems I'll have to find a master-level Artifact Forger to help me set this Critical Immortal Jade," Zhuge Xiang thought to himself. He knew that it would be a long time before he was able to set it, so he didn't put too much thought into the Critical Immortal Jade. He raised his head and focused his attention on Thunder Flame Emperor and Poison Emperor.
The Poison Emperor's cultivation has reached the level of an outstanding Asura Emperor, only one step away from becoming Asura Emperor himself. Coupled with his unpredictable poisons, even the Asura Emperor would not want to provoke him casually. Now, with the battle between the Thunder Flame Emperor, the head of the Five Emperors, and the Poison Emperor, Zhuge Xiang is also very curious about how far the Poison Emperor can fight the Thunder Flame Emperor.
Zhuge Xiang had a general idea of Poison Emperor's power. After all, since the start of the Sacred War, there had only been a few dozen people. How could Zhuge Xiang not notice the Poison Emperor, who had managed to stand out? His poison was unpredictable, domineering, and strange. Moreover, he could not let anyone discover his method of poisoning. Often, before his opponent could even react, the poison had already taken deep root, making it impossible to recover.
"Thunder Flame Emperor, my Luck seems to be really bad. I didn't expect to be facing the head of the Five Emperors, Thunder Flame Emperor Lei Yan," said the Poison Emperor, a tall and thin man with green hair. He stared at Thunder Flame Emperor and spoke. As he spoke, the breath he exhaled was Jade Green and had a fishy stench that made people nauseous and even dizzy.
"Since you know you're Luck and no match for me, why don't you just admit defeat?" Thunder Flame Emperor stood brazenly in front of the Poison Emperor. Although he was pleased with the Poison Emperor's flattery, he still showed no politeness in response.
"How can I, a member of the Asura Path, be defeated without a fight? Although I know I am no match for you, I still want to fight you and see how much the difference in our strength really is." Shaking his head, the Poison Emperor was clearly unwilling to admit defeat without a fight.
"The gap? Such a gap is enough to make you disheartened..." The Poison Emperor's words made Thunder Flame Emperor's eyes narrow, unleashing a power that no one dared to look directly at. As he spoke, Thunder Flame Emperor actually took the initiative to attack.
The power of Lightning and Flame appeared in Thunder Flame Emperor's hands. Then, he brought his hands together, and the power of Lightning and Flame merged together, transforming into burning lightning that blasted towards the Poison Emperor. The speed was incredible, and in an instant, it completely engulfed the Poison Emperor's body.
Boom!
The violent explosion seemed to shake the entire Sole Dominance Mountain. The power unleashed by the fusion of Lightning and Flame was terrifying. Even the attacks of the Demon Dragon Emperor and Zhuge Xiang were far inferior to the power of this move by the leader of the Five Emperors, which lived up to his reputation.
