366: Sweeping all the geniuses, the imperial edict comes again

Hiss!

Everyone was dumbfounded, looking at Chu Jiang with terror.

“Lord Shao Si’s strike just now, relying solely on his Physical Body, sent Fa Wu Hai flying!”

“Terrifying! Now, the Prodigies on the field must unite to have any chance of fighting him; otherwise, the outcome is unpredictable!”

Just now, they thought Chu Jiang would fight dozens of rounds before defeating Fa Wu Hai, but it only took one move.

“This guy…”

Jin Buhuan’s expression was solemn. That strike just now would have been difficult for him to withstand as well. The speed of the attack and the overwhelming power were rare among those of the same Realm.

Young Master Hua, Zhang Yi, and other Prodigies had the same expression.

In the stands.

Yue Xuanji was also slightly surprised. Although she looked down on Fa Wu Hai, to defeat him with a casual palm strike still shocked her.

Chu Jiang’s strength was at least two levels higher than Fa Wu Hai’s.

The top of the Prodigy Ranking was well-deserved.

She even suspected that he already possessed Heaven-rank level combat power.

In the battlefield.

Crack!

Bang!

Several bones in Fa Wu Hai’s body were broken. He crawled out of the rubble, covered in dust, with blood at the corner of his mouth.

“Chu Jiang, you ambushed me when I wasn’t prepared! What kind of hero are you?!”

His expression was cold. It seemed that if he didn’t use some of his trump cards, he really wouldn’t be able to take him down.

He lightly patted his Storage Pouch, and a string of Buddha beads floated in the air. In an instant, golden light radiated, and Fa Wu Hai’s Qi rapidly soared.

The other Prodigies also took out their signature Magic Treasures.

Jin Buhuan took out a bracelet Magic Treasure and put it on his hand. Young Master Hua took out a white jade sword. Behind Zhang Yi, five flags of different colors soared into the air.

“It’s Guangming Temple’s Heavenly Treasure Buddha Beads, one of the top Buddha Treasures, which can greatly enhance Buddha Power and increase the might of martial arts!”

“The Vajra Bracelet, a strange Magic Treasure that can absorb damage.”

“That white sword is a High Grade Magic Treasure, the Holy Light Sword. As long as it attacks an enemy, it can absorb life essence from him!”

“Those five flags are also not simple. They are imitation versions of the Five Elements Flags, which can summon the power of heaven and earth. The Five Elements change unpredictably, making them impossible to guard against!”

“These are all top Magic Treasures from various major forces. It seems these people were well-prepared, and the situation isn’t looking good.”

An old Jianghu expert commented that with these powerful Magic Treasures working together and the resources of these young Prodigies,

even a low-ranking Heaven-rank expert could be trapped.

“This is cheating! All Magic Treasures should be forbidden, and everyone should use weapons of the same level. Lord Shao Si didn’t use a weapon; it’s unfair…”

“Yes, it’s unfair!”

Hundreds of female cultivators shouted, seeing Fa Wu Hai’s Qi growing stronger and stronger, their faces anxious.

Fa Wu Hai, in the martial arts arena, saw this scene and felt extremely comfortable. He had finally turned the tables.

“What a joke. Magic Treasures are also a form of strength.”

“The Demon Suppression Division is a powerful organization; surely their Lord Shao Si isn’t without a decent Magic Treasure, right?!”

He was secretly belittling the Demon Suppression Division.

“Noisy!”

“To deal with you, this Lord disdains using Magic Treasures!”

Chu Jiang snorted coldly. His figure was like lightning, instantly disappearing from his original spot.

Boom!

A massive fist went straight for Fa Wu Hai’s face.

Pfft!

Several front teeth were directly broken, and blood splattered into the sky.

“Ah…”

Fa Wu Hai let out a mournful scream and flew backward.

“Don’t let him defeat us one by one! Let’s go together!”

Jin Buhuan’s expression changed slightly. Chu Jiang being ranked first on the Prodigy Ranking by Heavenly Secrets Pavilion indeed meant he had some true capabilities.

He then made his move, the Vajra Bracelet radiating golden light, unleashing the Golden Sun Sect’s top martial art, striking towards Chu Jiang.

Zhang Yi’s Five Elements Flags soared through the air, instantly sealing the Void Realm where Chu Jiang was. The Five Elements trapping formation of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth was instantly activated.

“Star Absorbing Sword Art!”

Young Master Hua roared, the Holy Light Sword rolling with white light, tearing through the Void Realm, directly suppressing Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang remained unfazed, still standing with one hand behind his back, sweeping all directions with the power of his Physical Body, using his hand as a blade to cut through the sealed airspace.

With his current Realm, even ordinary martial arts could turn decay into wonder, unleashing unparalleled power.

Zhang Yi’s Five Elements Flags were the first to collapse, crushed by immense power. He was struck by one blow, spitting out a large mouthful of blood, his body flying hundreds of meters backward.

The next moment.

Jin Buhuan clenched his fist, radiant with golden light. His entire arm was covered by various golden runes, his power comparable to the Myriad Manifestations.

“It’s the Golden Sun Sect’s ultimate technique, the Mountain-Splitting Vajra Hand, a top-tier Qiankun martial art, and it looks like it has been Cultivated to Perfection!”

This was an extremely powerful martial art, using a top-tier treasure specifically to temper one arm, making it indestructible.

When unleashing martial arts, its power greatly increased.

Unfortunately.

He met Chu Jiang, whose Undying Golden Body was in the Transcendent Realm. Chu Jiang’s entire body had almost no defensive weaknesses; every part of him was a supreme Sharp Weapon.

Crack!

Their fists collided, and Jin Buhuan’s expression changed drastically.

He only felt a colossal, overwhelming force coming at him. The terrifying recoil caused his knuckle bones to crack.

The Mountain-Splitting Vajra Hand shattered inch by inch, directly broken, and he was sent flying backward, falling to the ground unable to get up.

Everyone present was shocked. Even with the aid of top-tier Magic Treasures, they couldn’t win, not even withstand a few moves.

Who else could be his opponent?

A large group of Prodigies, like a swarm of bees, attacked him, unleashing their unique skills, as if fighting a great Devil King, attempting to shake Chu Jiang.

But they were all easily swept away by Chu Jiang, who didn’t even use his second hand.

“Chu Jiang, die for me! This Buddha Son will show you who the true number one of the younger generation is…”

“Great Mighty Dragon, World-Honored Ksitigarbha, Prajna Buddhas, Prajnaparamita…”

“Great Compassionate Buddha Hand!”

Fa Wu Hai, seizing an opening, chanted a spell. A giant Buddha hand, gleaming with golden light, suppressed and locked onto Chu Jiang.

“Letting you jump around for so long, do you really think this Lord has a good temper?”

Chu Jiang’s expression was cold. With a raised hand, boundless Divine Power transformed into a Black Dragon.

It was precisely the ultimate technique of the Black Dragon Eighteen Styles, the Black Dragon Holy Hand!

Boom!

With this strike, Chu Jiang showed a hint of anger. The vast Divine Power and the Black Dragon Holy Hand merged into one, shattering even the Void Realm.

Pfft!

This strike directly crippled half of Fa Wu Hai’s body, staining the sky with blood.

“Ah!”

Fa Wu Hai screamed again, crashing heavily to the ground, spitting out large mouthfuls of vital blood. His bones were shattered, and he was completely defeated, unable to get up again.

Chu Jiang descended from the sky and stomped his foot on Fa Wu Hai’s face.

“Still jumping now?”

Chu Jiang said coldly.

“You…”

Fa Wu Hai struggled madly, feeling utterly humiliated. To be publicly stepped on the face was an immense disgrace.

Shame, resentment, but more than that, impotent rage.

Unless he self-destructed his grotto-heaven, there was no possibility of resisting.

But that was impossible; the cost was too severe.

Just at this moment.

Whoosh!

The sword light was like ink, silent and traceless.

Young Master Hua, hidden in the dark, seized the opportunity for a decisive strike.

“Pfft!”

The Holy Light Sword pierced Chu Jiang’s Physical Body, penetrating the skin. An unprecedented suction force came, drawing out life essence.

Young Master Hua was overjoyed. He had become the first person to injure the Deputy Commander of the Demon Suppression Division. He said, “If Lord Shao Si admits defeat now, I will withdraw my Magic Treasure. Otherwise, if my Holy Light Sword goes berserk, even I can’t control it…”

Boom!

Suddenly, the Pure Yang Immortal Seed flared brightly, and a vortex appeared. A suction force a hundred times stronger than the Holy Light Sword activated, counter-absorbing the Holy Light Sword’s supreme Yang spiritual power.

“Not good…”

Young Master Hua was greatly alarmed. Chu Jiang’s Physical Body was strange; it could actually absorb the innate Divine Power of Magic Treasures.

It was simply unbelievable.

“Collect!”

“Collect!”

“Collect, collect, collect…”

Young Master Hua summoned his Magic Treasure, but the Holy Light Sword remained motionless.

“No—”

This Magic Treasure was a High Grade Magic Treasure from Bixiao Palace, borrowed from the Palace Master for his survival; it could not be lost.

“Lord Shao Si, I admit defeat!”

Young Master Hua quickly shouted.

In a short while, the innate Divine Power of this Holy Light Sword was mostly absorbed, causing it to directly drop to a Medium Grade Magic Treasure.

If it continued for a moment longer, it would probably be completely drained.

At this point.

All twenty-something Prodigies who came to challenge him, including four in the top ten of the Prodigy Ranking, were all swept away by Chu Jiang, and he suppressed them with just one hand.

“The Deputy Commander of the Demon Suppression Division, this battle today will surely make him famous throughout the world, suppressing over twenty Prodigies with one hand!”

The key was that he strolled through it all, as if playing. His true combat power was probably only two or three tenths of its full potential.

“Lord Shao Si doesn’t need Magic Treasures; he can still suppress them!”

“Lord Shao Si is invincible! Lord Shao Si is the most handsome! I want to have monkeys with you…”

A large number of fangirls present went wild, causing many male Prodigies to twitch their mouths. However, Chu Jiang’s strength was indeed Heaven-Defying.

There was a reason why Chu Jiang was able to crush his way through the Deputy Commander assessment. If he used his full power, anyone on the Prodigy Ranking would probably not be his opponent.

“Sister Dan Chen, your beloved is so fierce. Can you share him with me, big sister? What should I do if I’ve also taken a liking to him…” Yue Xuanji chuckled.

“Sister Yue, we are just friends. Besides, your… that’s your business, I… can’t control it!” Dan Chen said, blushing.

“Hmph, I’m just teasing you. How could I snatch a man from my own sister?!”

Yue Xuanji sneered, gently stroking Dan Chen’s hair. This girl’s heart was too pure.

Prince Jin and Prince Qi also sighed. Chu Jiang was indeed a Heaven-Defying talent.

One must know that he was not yet thirty years old and had risen in less than a year.

Meanwhile, the top few on the Prodigy Ranking were mostly over sixty, some even close to a hundred years old.

The various forces, at this moment, felt both surprised and fearful, their minds filled with countless thoughts.

Just as tens of thousands of people on the scene were cheering.

Suddenly.

An Old Eunuch held up a golden, radiant orb of light.

Immediately after.

A sharp and clear voice resounded throughout heaven and earth:

“The imperial decree arrives—”
