352: Supernatural power: [Dharma of Heaven and Earth]! (Please subscribe!)

“What are your thoughts?”

Jiang Yuan asked curiously, but the Old Monarch only smiled slightly.

He flicked his whisk and looked at Nezha and Zhao Gongming, who were currently fighting.

“First, break through his turtle shell.”

The Demon Race individual was wearing a full set of purple-quality defensive equipment.

It was a full body armor that even covered his head.

Only by first breaking through this purple-quality defensive equipment could they proceed.

Nezha wielded his Fire Tipped Spear, deflecting the opponent's long spear with the spearhead, then thrusting with the Fire Tipped Spear in his other hand, while his Yin Yang Twin Swords also landed on the Demon Race individual.

At this moment, due to the effect of [Yin Yang Rotation], the twin swords had already turned into fire-attribute weapons.

The attack covered the Demon Race fellow with a layer of flames, reducing his power.

Zhao Gongming and Shi Ji also launched their attacks; lightning-attribute Energy and Necromancy spells struck the Demon Race individual.

Seeing this, the Demon Race individual pushed Nezha away with a forceful thrust of his long spear, then a purple-quality Skill Card appeared in his hand.

Purple light shone, and a black Western dragon's phantom appeared directly above the Demon Race individual's head.

[Demonic Dragon Breath]!

The giant dragon breathed black flames, burning towards Nezha and Zhao Gongming.

Nezha's Wind Fire Wheels spun, and the black tiger carried Zhao Gongming, both quickly dodging the attack.

Shi Ji's figure flickered and disappeared from her original spot.

She reappeared behind the Demon Race individual, continuously releasing Necromancy [Shadow Spheres] which exploded upon hitting the Demon Race individual.

At the same time, Zhao Gongming's lightning attack and Nezha's Qiankun Circle also fell, and the purple defensive equipment on the Demon Race individual had dimmed considerably.

The Old Monarch flicked his whisk, and the Yin-Yang Energy and Taiqing Divine Thunder also hit the opponent.

“Add some more effort, and you should be able to break his defensive equipment very soon.” Ancient Capital Si Dan shouted excitedly upon seeing this scene.

Nezha and Zhao Gongming also showed no mercy, dodging the opponent's attacks while striking with lethal intent.

“Boom!”

A moment later, the cooldown for the [Universe Throw] of the [Qiankun Circle] ended.

Ancient Capital Si Dan once again amplified Nezha's Skill: Strength Amplification, and after the Yin Yang Twin Swords also amplified Nezha's Skill: Strength Amplification, the Qiankun Circle was thrown!

It smashed towards the Demon Race fellow.

The phantom of the purple-quality defensive equipment still appeared, blocking Nezha's attack.

But this time it was different from before; after a brief standoff between the purple defensive equipment phantom and the Qiankun Circle, it exploded with a bang!

“Zhao Gongming!”

The Old Monarch's voice rang out the moment the purple-quality defensive equipment on the Demon Race individual exploded.

Zhao Gongming also understood the Old Monarch's meaning, so he immediately activated a skill.

[Calamity Aversion]!

[Calamity Aversion]: Skill Resolution!

Randomly generates a Skill Card that can resolve the current crisis.

After the skill was activated, a purple-quality Skill Card appeared in Zhao Gongming's hand.

Zhao Gongming twirled his hand, and purple light shone in his palm.

The next second, to Ancient Capital Si Dan's horror, Zhao Gongming's figure suddenly grew taller.

Divine Ability: [Heaven and Earth Dharma Manifestation]!

Unfortunately, it was merely a purple-quality one-time Skill Card, only capable of amplifying Zhao Gongming's Skill: Strength Amplification and size.

But even so, Zhao Gongming's Skill: Strength Amplification was still incredibly immense.

Not only Zhao Gongming himself, but even the Steel Whip in his hand also grew enormous.

The towering Zhao Gongming's little finger was equivalent to the Demon Race individual in front of him.

Jiang Yuan and Ancient Capital Si Dan also became like small dolls.

With this [Heaven and Earth Dharma Manifestation] unleashed, the Giant Race no longer seemed so giant.

Not only Ancient Capital Si Dan, but even Jiang Yuan was astonished.

Could such a skill be randomly generated?

Was it perhaps a bit of an overkill?

Then, Zhao Gongming's skyscraper-like Steel Whip in his hand suddenly smashed down.

“Boom!”

A tremendous roar echoed, and the ground trembled.

Jiang Yuan and Ancient Capital Si Dan, standing on the ground, were forced to jump.

The earth cracked, like a meteorite falling, leaving a deep crater with a cracked pattern on the ground.

“Holy crap!”

Ancient Capital Si Dan's eyes widened: “How come he feels even fiercer than Nezha?”

Honestly, Ancient Capital Si Dan had never seen anyone fiercer than Nezha.

Under the same level conditions.

But looking at the current situation, Zhao Gongming in his current state...

He seemed even fiercer than Nezha, didn't he?

It was a bit outrageous, wasn't it?

However, Jiang Yuan did not answer his question.

To be precise, they were actually evenly matched.

After all, they were both purple-quality Skill Cards, so their basic strengths were similar.

But if they were to truly fight, Nezha might not be Zhao Gongming's opponent.

Without weapons, that is.

If both sides were armed now, Nezha would essentially have the upper hand.

After all, Nezha had many weapons, and the weapons' enhancements for Nezha were also very powerful.

Zhao Gongming still didn't have the Dinghai Divine Pearl.

It was originally like this, but now Jiang Yuan's thoughts had changed.

If [Calamity Aversion] could generate a skill like [Heaven and Earth Dharma Manifestation], Nezha at this moment would definitely not be Zhao Gongming's opponent.

But why could this skill be generated?

Jiang Yuan subconsciously looked at the Old Monarch, who smiled slightly and softly explained to Jiang Yuan.

“The skill Calamity Aversion can generate a Skill Card that can resolve the current crisis.”

“And the current crisis is this Demon Race individual in front of us; as long as we eliminate him, the crisis will naturally be resolved.”

“Based on this premise, we first shatter the Demon Race individual's defensive equipment. This way, Zhao Gongming only needs to apply any amplification ability to be sufficient to kill the opponent.”

“Therefore, using Calamity Aversion in this situation will most likely result in a skill that amplifies Zhao Gongming himself, plus some luck, even if it's not Heaven and Earth Dharma Manifestation, it will be another skill.”

The Old Monarch said, stroking his beard and chuckling.

“Of course, there’s another possibility.”

“That is, a powerful offensive skill appears, directly eliminating the opponent.”

“No wonder!”

After the Old Monarch finished explaining, Jiang Yuan finally understood.

The skill [Calamity Aversion] also had a limit.

Jiang Yuan had tried it in the Dream Tower.

If the crisis touched Zhao Gongming's limit, the skill would fail.

So from then on, Jiang Yuan and Zhao Gongming basically stopped using this skill.

But they didn't expect this skill to have such a use.

Viewing this skill as an execution skill made more sense.

If it couldn't be used when the opponent was at full health and fully equipped, then it should be used when the opponent was low on health and without equipment.

Although it was a “crisis,” executing the opponent and shattering the defensive equipment on the opponent were two different concepts.

The latter was undoubtedly much simpler.

It was precisely because of this that the Old Monarch made this plan.

Should it be said that he truly lived up to his name as the Old Monarch?

Even as an auxiliary Card Spirit, without too much terrifying combat power.

But his mind was still very sharp.

“Skills can have many different uses.”

The Old Monarch smiled slightly, looking at the now deceased Demon Race individual and said.

At this moment, twelve minutes remained.

The opponent in the tenth stage was indeed the most troublesome opponent Jiang Yuan had encountered.

It had wasted about ten minutes.

However, if the tenth stage was all at this level, then Mu Qianshan...

Jiang Yuan was a little worried about Mu Qianshan.

But Jiang Yuan was overthinking it a bit.

It could be said that among everyone, only Jiang Yuan's tenth stage was the most difficult.

This was not only because his own combat power was very strong; if it were just him alone, the difficulty of the tenth stage would not be so high, at most it would be like a Demon Race individual at the Real Shen (Early Stage) of the Sixth Realm.

In other words, the difficulty of the ninth stage was actually Jiang Yuan's normal difficulty.

But the difficulty of the tenth stage was different; because of Ancient Capital Si Dan, it was not just a Demon Race individual, but a genius of the Demon Race.

A genius so remarkable that even the Demon Race lamented his demise.

However, Jiang Yuan didn't know this; he thought everyone was like this, and the tenth stage was extremely difficult.

After passing the tenth stage, Jiang Yuan and his companions did not leave.

Presumably, they would have to wait until everyone had cleared the stage before they could leave.

He just didn't know what the fourth stage would be like.

Jiang Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground, propping his chin and pondering.

About half an hour later, Jiang Yuan suddenly realized.

That's not right, adding his own clear time and the half an hour he'd been waiting, it was almost an hour, how could there still be people who hadn't passed?

Was everyone on a different timer, or was he trapped here?

Rationally speaking, Jiang Yuan believed the former more.

After all, this was the Space-Time Gate Hall; why would it trap him here?

“It should be that everyone has different times.”

Ancient Capital Si Dan saw Jiang Yuan's suspicious gaze directed at him, then scratched his head awkwardly, avoiding Jiang Yuan's eyes, and said.

“So, because of you, not only did my clear difficulty increase, but my clear time also decreased significantly, right?”

“Abba abba.”

“Playing dumb!”

Seeing Ancient Capital Si Dan playing dumb, Jiang Yuan directly pounced on him and grabbed Ancient Capital Si Dan's neck.

“If I couldn't kill you, you'd already be dead!”

“Ah, I know, I know.”

Ancient Capital Si Dan cooperated very well with Jiang Yuan, shaking his head and saying.

In the Space-Time Gate Hall, it was impossible to harm teammates, so Jiang Yuan choking his neck didn't cause him any feeling of suffocation, not even a hint of pain.

“If my reward is gone, you not only have to compensate me for the reward, but you also have to compensate me with yourself.”

Jiang Yuan naturally knew the situation here, knowing that he couldn't cause any harm to Ancient Capital Si Dan, so he merely vented for a bit and then released his hand.

“Then if your reward is still there, can you compensate me with Shi Ji?” Ancient Capital Si Dan shamelessly leaned in, his face excited, and asked Jiang Yuan.

“Slap!”

As soon as Ancient Capital Si Dan finished speaking, before Jiang Yuan could even open his mouth, his head was struck by the Taia Sword.

Ancient Capital Si Dan turned his head, looking pitifully at the indifferent Shi Ji, but Shi Ji showed no expression whatsoever, her face cold as she held the Taia Sword to Ancient Capital Si Dan's neck.

“You, why did you have to provoke her for no reason?”

Nezha stood to the side, his eight arms crossed, chuckling mockingly.

Zhao Gongming was equally expressionless, looking at Ancient Capital Si Dan without speaking.

If he had no strong feelings about Ancient Capital Si Dan before, it was different now.

He now also wanted to kill Ancient Capital Si Dan and then have Ancient Capital Si Dan become Shi Ji's Undead Enslavement, to amplify himself.

Ancient Capital Si Dan's amplification effect was indeed very good, a twenty-five percent amplification effect, plus his own amplification.

If it weren't for Ancient Capital Si Dan, they really might not have been able to defeat that Demon Race fellow just now.

Of course, if there were no Ancient Capital Si Dan, their opponent would not have been this Demon Race fellow.

Even if it might have been another Demon Race individual, it wouldn't have been this Demon Race genius, but an ordinary Demon Race person.

“Hehehe~”

Facing Shi Ji's threat and indifference, Ancient Capital Si Dan remained unfazed, still shamelessly fawning over Shi Ji with a ingratiating smile.

Jiang Yuan helplessly rubbed his forehead; this was even more of a simp than a simp.

Just as Jiang Yuan was about to say something, his vision suddenly blurred, and then he was back in the main hall.

Subconsciously, he turned his head to look for Mu Qianshan.

Only after seeing Mu Qianshan give him a bright, smiling peace sign did he relax.

The difficulty of the third stage was still very high; now there were only about six or seven hundred people left in the entire hall.

In other words, the third stage just now directly eliminated nearly one-third of the people.

And all those who were eliminated...

Died!

Upon realizing this, Jiang Yuan instantly felt a surge of anger.

If he had known this, he might as well have eliminated them before the Space-Time Gate Hall opened.

Although he couldn't rely on them to obtain rewards from the Space-Time Gate Hall, their Backpack Cards were also considered one of his guaranteed rewards.

But now?

Nothing was left!

Jiang Yuan was somewhat angered, and he turned his head again to scan the surroundings.

But thankfully, powerful individuals like Wusun Zhongliang of the Demon Race, Gloria of the Angel Clan, and those strong Mechanical Race individuals were still alive.

Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then the mechanical voice in the Space-Time Gate Hall sounded again.

“Third stage cleared, rewards issued.”

As the voice sounded, countless streams of light descended from above the hall.

“Rank 1: Human Race Jiang Yuan, Undead Ancient Capital Si Dan!”

“Rank 2: Demon Race Utinaki!”

“Rank 3: Mechanical Race Cao De Jingfeng!”

After the three voices sounded, the large screen reappeared.

In addition to the four names just mentioned, there were also the names of those from fourth to tenth place, and from tenth to fiftieth place.

The same items appeared before Jiang Yuan and Ancient Capital Si Dan.

However, Jiang Yuan didn't have time to check his own items; instead, he first looked at Ancient Capital Si Dan.

Upon seeing that Ancient Capital Si Dan also had three purple-quality heavenly material and earthly treasure and twenty purple-quality Skill Cards in front of him, his heart was instantly filled with joy.

These would all be his in the future.

After the spoils of war were distributed, the mechanical voice sounded again.

“Next, the fourth stage!”

“Team Elimination!”

“Five people per team; successfully eliminate another team to pass.”

Jiang Yuan, or rather everyone, didn't have time to check the spoils they had obtained and quickly began forming teams.
