Yan Yu Heaven-Sealing Form, the Ganwu Universe Country's Great Figures Go Wild!
"Master, you have received 67 challenge letters. The strongest among them goes by the codename [Demon Blade]. He has a nine-star rating in the Decisive Battle Space and has killed another nine-star opponent there within three moves. Do you accept?"
In the cosmic void battle setting, Li Jing's eyes showed no trace of fatigue after repeatedly using the Ten Thousand Sword Soul Seal to annihilate his opponents' souls.
The bodies in the Decisive Battle Space were created by the Virtual Universe.
After every battle, no matter how severe the injuries or how great the expenditure, they could instantly recover to face the next fight.
"I accept. I accept them all!"
Seeing that his 121 consecutive victories had finally drawn the attention of high-star opponents, Li Jing's lips curled up slightly.
Soon, battle after battle unfolded in the cosmic void setting.
No matter how many opponents came, Li Jing annihilated their souls with a single, simple Ten Thousand Sword Soul Seal.
The second layer of the Soul Seal, the Ten Hearts realm, was combined with a ninth-stage Star Level will that surpassed his own level by an entire major realm.
Although Li Jing's main path as a Spirit Reader was that of a Controller, he could still easily annihilate his enemies' souls with the Ten Thousand Sword Soul Seal.
Although his opponents all went down in a single move, Li Jing could still see the gap between these challengers and the one-star opponents he had faced before.
Every one of them could also defeat his previous opponents in a single move!
It was just that, before Li Jing's overwhelming strength, there seemed to be little difference between the two.
In the blink of an eye, another 66 battles ended, bringing Li Jing's winning streak to 187.
Of the challenges he had accepted, only "Demon Blade" remained-the nine-star fighter who had killed another nine-star opponent in three moves.
"The best dish is always saved for last. Let's see just how capable this Demon Blade really is."
A hint of curiosity flashed through Li Jing's eyes as the Decisive Battle Space restored him to peak condition once more.
The Killing Field's Decisive Battle Space he was in encompassed the entire Ganwu Continent.
The caliber of its geniuses and experts was far beyond that of the Black Dragon Mountain Branch Killing Field where Luo Feng and the others had once stayed.
Here, a Planetary Level fighter who had entered the Domain realm could only scrape together a six-star rating. Every one of the dozen or so six-star opponents Li Jing had defeated had entered the Domain realm without exception.
Among the more than 60 opponents, the only other nine-star genius besides Demon Blade had even reached the Sixth-Level Domain.
For an ordinary Planetary Level fighter, entering the Domain realm was already extraordinary. A Sixth-Level Domain was beyond most people's imagination.
Protected by his Domain, that nine-star opponent had possessed considerable resistance, even though he had not deliberately studied a Soul Defense Secret Technique.
Even Li Jing had needed to unleash the Ten Thousand Sword Soul Seal at full power to defeat him without using a second move.
In the end, the Soul Seal was not a dedicated Soul Attack secret technique. Li Jing could use it to annihilate his opponents' souls only because his powerful will was an entire major realm above his own level.
In fact, even illusionists, one of the three main schools of Spirit Readers, could rarely annihilate an opponent's soul outright. That was something they could usually do only when crushing weaklings.
Illusionists usually dragged their enemies into carefully woven illusions, then used telekinetic weapons to kill them while they were distracted.
Illusion Demon Galexi, whom Luo Feng encountered in the Genius Battle, was one such example.
"You're Luck Emperor? Getting 121-no, 187 consecutive wins now-does mean you've got some ability. But I'm about to end your streak. Remember, my name is Demon Blade!"
A white light flashed in the Decisive Battle Space, and a young man with an alluringly handsome face appeared opposite Li Jing. He held a blue-green war blade, an arrogant look on his face.
"Noisy," Li Jing said flatly.
He folded his arms across his chest without moving another muscle, merely casting Demon Blade a condescending glance.
Demon Blade froze, then the smile on his face grew even crueler. "Brat, you've succeeded in making me angry. I won't let you lose too easily!"
As he spoke, his Wind Domain spread out, and he turned into a hurricane that seemed capable of destroying everything as he charged at Li Jing.
Planetary Level, a seventh-level Wind Domain, and he had already reached the introductory stage of a fifth-tier World Lord Level saber technique!
With such talent, once he entered Star Level, it would not take him long to cross the threshold of the Wind Origin Law, and he would not merely have touched its surface, either.
"Not bad. A genius with more potential than Feng Lun!" A hint of seriousness finally flashed through Li Jing's eyes.
This Demon Blade before him ranked among the foremost geniuses in the entire Ganwu Universe Country.
Unfortunately, he seemed to be young, like Li Jing. Otherwise, he could not still be at Planetary Level.
He would have broken through to Star Level long ago and been working hard to comprehend the Origin Law in preparation for the Genius Battle a few years later.
"First, take a Ten Thousand Sword Soul Seal to whet your appetite!"
With a thought from Li Jing, surging soul power gathered into a small sword Soul Seal and shot straight at Demon Blade, appearing in his sea of consciousness in an instant.
Knowing that Li Jing excelled at annihilating his opponents' souls, Demon Blade dared not be careless and unleashed his Soul Defense Secret Technique at full power.
The illusory image of a small bell gradually solidified in his sea of consciousness. The sword Soul Seal slammed into it, and the solidified bell actually showed signs of cracking.
"What?"
Demon Blade was shocked. His Soul Defense Secret Technique had been personally taught to him by his ancestor, Marquis Qingming. He had already cultivated it to the introductory stage and could ignore ordinary Soul Attacks from those at the same realm.
Yet a single Soul Attack from Luck Emperor had nearly cracked the secret technique's small bell guarding his soul.
And that was after his seventh-level Wind Domain had weakened its power!
If his opponent followed up with two more strikes, wouldn't his soul be annihilated on the spot?
No, I have to close in quickly and suppress him with my Domain, so he can't spare the attention to use a Soul Attack secret technique!
Seeing Demon Blade take a Ten Thousand Sword Soul Seal head-on and turn only slightly pale without slowing down, Li Jing's eyes flashed with appreciation.
His opponent had probably cultivated a Soul Defense Secret Technique, and one of a fairly high level at that. Otherwise, he could not have blocked that strike.
The Ten Thousand Sword Soul Seal was only a prerequisite for cultivating the Enslavement Soul Seal, and using soul power to form a sword Soul Seal and directly strike an opponent's soul was among the crudest Soul Attack secret techniques.
But when he used it, its power was still not to be underestimated.
It was truly impressive that his opponent could block it. He was worthy of Li Jing using his true strength.
Almost there!
The Wind Domain was naturally suited to speed. As Demon Blade desperately closed in on Li Jing, who remained standing where he was without dodging or evading, the distance between them shrank.
A flash of delight and pleasant surprise crossed Demon Blade's bewitching face. Luck Emperor is actually this overconfident! When a warrior gets close to a Spirit Reader, there's only one outcome: death!
Demon Blade swung his saber fiercely, unleashing Hurricane, a Fifth-Tier Secret Technique he had already mastered to the introductory stage, at full power.
His will, spirit, Origin Force, and Domain all poured into that single strike.
The war blade traced an arc of light through the air, beautiful yet filled with killing intent.
At that moment, an explosive aura burst forth, seemingly capable of burning everything to ashes.
Demon Blade felt endless pressure bearing down on him from all directions, and shock flashed through his eyes. "A ninth-level Fire Domain? No, it's the Fire Origin Law!"
Before he could react, a streak of firelight came at him faster than his mind could register. It was as if every avenue of escape had been sealed off, leaving only that undying firelight in the entire world.
The third layer of the fire-element Immortal secret technique Burning Flame: Yan Yu Heaven-Sealing Form!
The nine-star genius Demon Blade was defeated!
When they saw Li Jing unleash that streak of undying firelight, every one of the lofty great figures of the Ganwu Universe Country went wild.
