350: Red quality [Pure Yang Sword Technique]! (asking for monthly ticket)
“Amplification, amplification, how do we do it?”
After slapping himself on the head, Ancient Capital Si Dan also reacted, quickly chuckled, and then asked Jiang Yuan.
“What do you have?”
“Everything!”
Speaking of this, Ancient Capital Si Dan immediately perked up: “Don’t underestimate the abilities of our Undead Royal Family!”
“Among all the races in the heavens, for Amplification Card Masters, our Undead Royal Family is in a league of its own, T0!”
“Alright, alright.”
Jiang Yuan didn't care about this at all; after all, once he eliminated him, he would naturally know his abilities.
“Nezha needs strength, Zhao Gongming needs critical hit, Shi Ji needs magic, and if possible, give them all a speed boost.”
“No problem!”
As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, four red quality cards appeared in Ancient Capital Si Dan’s hand.
The red quality cards shone brightly, transforming into six rays of light that landed on Nezha and the other two.
“What about that old man?”
“Laojun is a non-combatant, no need.”
Jiang Yuan glanced at the expressionless Laojun, then looked at Ancient Capital Si Dan with pity and said.
“Oh, oh.”
Ancient Capital Si Dan nodded, then looked towards the arena.
Nezha, Zhao Gongming, and Shi Ji, having all received their amplifications, charged towards the Stone Spirit Race member.
As a stone person, the Stone Spirit Race member had extremely formidable physical defense.
However, even so, he couldn't withstand the attacks of Nezha and the other two.
The stone person's movements were too slow, completely unable to keep up with Nezha's speed.
But the Stone Spirit Race member was not without any means of attack.
With the appearance of a red quality card, sand and stones immediately flew everywhere in the arena.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan extended his hand, and the Linglong Pagoda enveloped him and Laojun.
After a moment of hesitation, he also enveloped Ancient Capital Si Dan with the Linglong Pagoda.
No one knew if this team binding was only for this round or if it would continue for subsequent rounds.
If it was only for this round, it would be fine.
He was afraid it would continue, and if Ancient Capital Si Dan died, the opponent's strength would still be calculated based on both of them.
If that were truly the case, it would be better to protect Ancient Capital Si Dan first.
If he died at someone else's hands, he wouldn't have the ownership of Undead Enslavement.
This was Jiang Yuan's thought, but Ancient Capital Si Dan didn't see it that way.
Upon seeing the Linglong Pagoda envelop him, a shameful surge of emotion welled up in Ancient Capital Si Dan’s heart.
He… he's actually so good to me!
If it weren't for Shi Ji in my heart…
It’s a bit exaggerated. Even if Shi Ji wasn't in my heart, I, Ancient Capital Si Dan, would never fall for a man!
And a human man at that!
However, that touch of emotion in his heart was indeed real, especially since he also knew the terrifying defensive power of the Linglong Pagoda.
Ancient Capital Si Dan looked at Jiang Yuan with some emotion, but Jiang Yuan didn't even look at him, his attention entirely focused on the battle between Nezha and the others and the stone person in the arena.
He didn't know Ancient Capital Si Dan's thoughts; if he did, he might feel a bit speechless.
Ancient Capital Si Dan was overthinking it.
Protecting him was purely because he didn't want his Undead Enhancement Card Master to be gone, that's all.
And he was only using the peerless 【Linglong Pagoda】.
Compared to the 【Linglong Pagoda】 he himself used, the 【Linglong Pagoda】 used for Ancient Capital Si Dan basically only provided basic defense against the Sixth Realm Shi Shen stone person.
But Ancient Capital Si Dan didn't know this, and was even very moved, giving Jiang Yuan another Star Power recovery buff.
Jiang Yuan looked at Ancient Capital Si Dan strangely, but didn't say much.
The battle between Nezha and the others and the stone person was already nearing its end.
After all, it was just a Second-Sequence Race that had already perished. Although its combat power was decent, its weaknesses were too obvious.
Even across a major realm, from the Fifth Realm to the Sixth Realm, Nezha and the others still easily dealt with the opponent.
“I wonder how Mu Qianshan is doing.”
With the things he prepared for Mu Qianshan, Mu Qianshan shouldn't be eliminated in the first round, right?
But he just didn't know if Mu Qianshan would encounter the same situation as himself.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but glance at Ancient Capital Si Dan, who was looking at Shi Ji with a dazed expression.
He always felt that this guy's purpose in coming here wasn't pure.
If it weren't for some 'friendly fire' mechanism, he would have eliminated this guy long ago.
Jiang Yuan's battle was almost over, while Mu Qianshan's battle could be said to have just begun.
His opponent, or rather everyone's opponent, was from the Stone Spirit Race.
However, due to different individual strengths, the Stone Spirit Race opponents they faced were different.
For someone like Mu Qianshan, the Stone Spirit Race opponent he faced was only at the Daliang level, the same as Mu Qianshan.
Initially, Mu Qianshan fought quite easily, as the Stone Spirit Race's movements were indeed slow.
But gradually, it became difficult. The Stone Spirit Race's defense was too high. If he didn't trigger the 【Zifu Sword】's 【Wonderful Method】 and 【Wonderful Music】 skills, he could only rely on lightning and fire elemental Energy attacks to deal damage.
But this was undoubtedly very slow.
Finally, after some time passed and the Zifu Sword's skills still hadn't been triggered, Mu Qianshan finally made up his mind to use the Skill Card Jiang Yuan had given him.
When Jiang Yuan gave him this Skill Card, he also said that this Skill Card was not very suitable for use with the Zifu Sword.
After all, they weren't a matching set.
Although there were commonalities, it was best not to use it if possible.
Now, the Zifu Sword was unable to penetrate the defense, so he could only use this Skill Card.
After making his decision, a red quality card instantly appeared in Mu Qianshan's hand!
One-time Skill Card 【Pure Yang Swordplay - Primordial One Energy】!
Red light flashed, and a pure red sword qi enveloped the tip of the Zifu Sword.
“Kill!”
The stone person was charging towards Mu Qianshan. With a low roar from Mu Qianshan, the Zifu Sword in his hand thrust out.
As the most penetrating skill in Pure Yang Swordplay, with the enhancement of 【Primordial One Energy】, the Zifu Sword directly pierced through the head of the stone person in front of him.
The sword entered from the forehead and exited from the back of the head, and the Stone Spirit Race member died instantly!
“Phew!”
After dealing with the opponent, Mu Qianshan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
If he had kept fighting this opponent, he would still have been able to resolve it, it was just a matter of time.
Even if the probabilistic instant kill didn't trigger, the lightning and fire attribute damage would slowly deal with the opponent.
The Stone Spirit Race was indeed very difficult to resist attribute damage.
But he wanted a quick battle even more.
Of course, there was another reason.
He wanted to test the effect of the Skill Card Jiang Yuan gave him.
There were three sets of one-time Skill Cards in total, with three skills each.
The other was a Skill Card.
However, martial arts-type Skill Cards required practice to be used more effectively.
But he simply didn't have time to practice the 【Pure Yang Swordplay】 Skill Card Jiang Yuan gave him, so he could only use the one-time Skill Card first to get a feel for it.
Once he had mastered the entire swordplay, he would be able to use the various skills within it without needing a Skill Card.
“But this skill is really strong!”
Mu Qianshan looked at the red quality Skill Card in his hand, and his heart couldn't help but yearn for it.
“If I work hard, once I activate this skill, my combat power should be able to catch up to Jiang… Shi Ji!”
Mu Qianshan comforted himself in his heart, then looked at the one-time Skill Cards again.
The one-time Skill Cards were individual sword moves from the 【Pure Yang Swordplay】, made into one-time Skill Cards.
Of course, Jiang Yuan didn't have this ability.
This was made by Laojun.
Even the red quality 【Pure Yang Swordplay】 was made by Laojun exploiting a bug with Jiang Yuan.
Theoretically speaking, Jiang Yuan's current strength did not support him making red quality cards.
Neither his mental power nor his Star Power were enough.
But with Laojun's Eight Trigrams Array.
The Eight Trigrams Array divided into eight spaces, directly enveloping Jiang Yuan in the 'Kun' position, representing stability.
Relying on the stability of his mental power, Jiang Yuan successfully drew and signed the card.
Then the Eight Trigrams Array shifted, and Jiang Yuan entered the 'Zhen' position, representing speed and action.
The Jade Purification Bottle above his head replenished his Star Power three times in a row, coupled with 【Nine Breaths Qi Cultivation】 and the Star Power Futon, only then did he barely succeed.
However, this was just one lucky instance. After all, Zhao Gongming had accumulated so much luck using 【Autumn Plague - Five Ghosts Carrying Wealth】, and it was all used up.
If it happened again, unless absolutely necessary, he would definitely not make cards across ranks like this again.
And it was only martial arts-type Skill Cards; otherwise, even if red quality cards were made, Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan wouldn't be able to use them.
As for why he had to make a red quality 【Pure Yang Swordplay】 at this time?
It was purely for those one-time Skill Cards.
Without the main body of 【Pure Yang Swordplay】, Laojun wouldn't be able to separate individual skills from it and make them into one-time Skill Cards.
Of course, for this, Mu Qianshan also paid with his actions.
He stated that he would help Laojun find the materials needed for the next card creation, and if it couldn't be made, he would keep searching!
Until it was made!
However, after such a long time, Mu Qianshan had only found one suitable card.
red quality material card 【Azure Sky-Breaking Ox】.
It could be said to be one of the best cards among the 'ox' type red quality material cards.
From this, it could be seen that Mu Qianshan was quite satisfied with this card.
After Mu Qianshan finished, Jiang Yuan and the others also finished quickly.
Nezha and Zhao Gongming didn't even use their respective ultimate moves, easily dealing with the stone person.
First round passed!
Their vision blurred, and they returned to the main hall.
Jiang Yuan looked around and found that the people were largely the same; only a few had been eliminated.
But then again, everyone present now was from a First Sequence Race, with only a small number of Second-Sequence Race members who had successfully entered at the last moment.
Putting everything else aside, their combat power at the same level was quite good.
Moreover, their opponents were merely from a Second-Sequence Race. If too many of them were eliminated, that would be truly absurd.
“The first round has ended. The second round, the group arena, is about to begin.”
It seemed that everyone returned to the main hall after completing the first round of challenges.
So, as soon as they returned to the main hall, the second round began immediately.
For the second round, the group arena, as the voice fell, a very large light screen appeared in front of everyone.
The light screen displayed the rules of the second round.
The arena game would consist of fifty people per match, and the first five people to die in each match would be directly eliminated by the Space-Time Gate Hall.
Eliminated means death!
When the last four crimson characters appeared, everyone instantly fell silent.
Usually, in the three-chime and six-chime Space-Time Gate Halls, elimination meant death only in the third and sixth rounds.
But now, it was starting in the second round?
Everyone's hearts trembled, and some began to feel fear.
Nine chimes meant there were eight more rounds to go.
If all eight rounds meant elimination by death…
After the rules for the second round were announced, the main hall instantly fell silent.
However, before they could say or discuss anything, the second round began.
The venue was a not-very-large circular arena.
Jiang Yuan looked around and didn't see anyone familiar.
However, everyone still subconsciously divided themselves into groups according to their races.
Including Jiang Yuan, there were five humans in this arena.
This number was not small among the many races, but it wasn't very large either.
There were four Demon Clan members, seven Element Spirit Race members, and several Giant Demon Clan members, two Angel Clan members, as well as Mechanical Race, Undead, and other races.
The moment everyone entered the arena, the second round had already begun.
“Kill the humans first. There are exactly five of them. Once we kill them, we can pass this round.”
After a period of reaction, people, perhaps because Jiang Yuan had been too prominent earlier, an Element Spirit Race member directly suggested eliminating Jiang Yuan and his group first.
Jiang Yuan sneered, and seven red quality cards in his hand instantly shone.
The next second, fully armed, the Three Heads and Eight Arms Nezha appeared in the air.
Lotus petals surrounded him, and the 【Qiankun Circle】 in his hand slammed violently towards the Element Spirit Race member who had just spoken.
“Boom!”
The one who had just spoken was a Fire Element Spirit Race member, whose defense was not very high to begin with. Even though the red quality defensive equipment on his body had appeared, it still couldn't block Nezha's full-power strike.
“First, eliminate the Element Spirit Race! Whoever attacks me, I will kill first!”
With Nezha’s single strike, the arena, now with only forty-nine people, instantly fell silent.
The next second, everyone launched attacks at Jiang Yuan.
“Let’s all rush him and eliminate him directly. Who would know who made the first move?”
Jiang Yuan was a little annoyed. He had already said he would kill whoever attacked first. Didn't they have any sense?
The one who spoke was a Demon Clan member. Nezha didn't indulge him, his figure flashed, and in a few swift moves, he eliminated the opponent.
Jiang Yuan enveloped himself with the Linglong Pagoda, first putting himself in an invincible position.
Then Laojun, Zhao Gongming, and Shi Ji also appeared in the arena, and together with the other four humans, quickly eliminated three Undead guys.
There was no other way; their combat power was the weakest among them.
At this point, the arena battle concluded.
As a burst of ethereal Energy was generated, everyone’s Star Power was frozen, making them unable to use cards.
“Nezha, kill!”
But being unable to use cards and having no Star Power didn't affect Nezha's combat power at all!
