71: Chapter 71: Starting with Unpacking the First Package

"Too much trouble."

Jiang Xun's casual remark caused Li Ang and the others' arrogance to vanish instantly.

The entire arena, both inside and outside the barrier, fell into a deathly silence.

"Death is at your doorstep, yet you still talk big!"

Li Ang's face turned from white to pale green, the veins on his temples throbbing from the provocation of this contempt.

He wasted no more words, his eyes filled with killing intent.

"Attack! Crush him for me!"

With an order, the Four Symbols Absolute Killing Array activated violently!

Boom!

The Death Qi of the undead transformed into countless malevolent ghosts, bearing down overwhelmingly. The giant waves of the Water-Marsh roared as they surged, and stone spikes from the earth erupted one after another. Ghost Shadow's form merged completely into the shadows, his poison-coated short blades turning into a flash of cold light.

Four completely different A-rank civilization powers converged at this moment into a destructive force, bearing down heavily on the slender figure at the center of the barrier!

"It's over!"

The commentator let out a trembling sigh.

Xu Qingran's heart leaped into her throat, her nails digging deep into her palms.

However, facing this powerful strike, the smile on Jiang Xun's face didn't change in the slightest.

He only said one sentence softly.

"Now, it's my turn."

The moment the words fell, Jiang Xun neither defended nor dodged; instead, he unfolded his God Kingdom!

"Is he crazy? Unfolding a God Kingdom inside a Combined Divine Art barrier? Is he trying to self-destruct?"

In the viewing room of Taichu Academy, an instructor cried out in surprise.

To unfold a God Kingdom in such a high-pressure energy environment was no different from seeking self-destruction; the result would be nothing left of his remains!

But the scene that followed left them all stunned.

Jiang Xun's God Kingdom was not crushed, nor was it even slightly unstable.

A stretch of land centered on him suddenly spread outward! The land was filled with the Death Qi of the undead, mixed with the wildness of Orcs, the wisdom of the Human Race, and the heaviness of Titans.

The God Kingdom didn't withstand the destructive force head-on; instead, it directly collided with the energy dome of the Four Symbols Absolute Killing Array!

"Stupid! He's looking for death!"

Li Ang sneered.

But his laughter froze on his face the next second.

Crack!

A crisp cracking sound rang out from a connection point on the four-colored dome.

"What?"

Li Ang's pupils suddenly constricted.

He could feel that the God Kingdom power of the four—himself, Lu Tao, Jiangnans First Shield, and Ghost Shadow—was experiencing a rejection reaction under Jiang Xun's brutal expansion!

"Four civilizations forced together can't even maintain a stable energy cycle; it's full of flaws."

Jiang Xun's voice rang out again, filled with undisguised mockery.

"A half-finished product like this, and you have the nerve to call it an Absolute Killing Array?"

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The cracking sounds instantly spread!

Jiang Xun's God Kingdom continued to expand, forcibly prying open this patched-together cage!

Boom!!!

Amidst a blinding light, the Four Symbols Absolute Killing Array, which was claimed to be enough to obliterate everything, exploded on the spot!

The violent energy turbulence swept in all directions, plowing through the entire Illusion Forest.

"Pfft!"

Li Ang, Lu Tao, Jiangnans First Shield, and Ghost Shadow were hit as if by a heavy blow, spitting out blood simultaneously as their expressions changed completely.

Their trump card, the certain-kill situation they had devised, was forcibly blown apart just like that?

How was this possible?

This completely defied the Laws of Godly Warfare!

"No! Impossible! My Water-Marsh Domain!"

Lu Tao screamed out.

He discovered that after Jiang Xun's God Kingdom expanded, the environment of the entire battlefield had been altered!

The swamp beneath his feet was still a swamp, but the energy in the water was no longer under his control.

A purer and more flexible water element power suppressed his God Kingdom in turn!

This was the higher-order water element Law refined by Jiang Xun after analyzing the Water-Marsh Civilization in the library!

Right at that moment.

Li Ang's Undead Legion finally rushed in front of Jiang Xun.

"Kill him! Kill him for me!" Li Ang roared like a madman.

However, what greeted them was another Undead Legion stepping out from Jiang Xun's God Kingdom!

It was a group of obsidian-like Undead Knights; their bones were incredibly hard, and they didn't even leave a white mark against the attacks of Li Ang's ordinary undead.

Instead, with just a gentle swing of their bone sabers, they cut the opponent's undead army to pieces!

Undead strengthened by Titan civilization power were simply not opponents on the same level!

"The first package, I'll unbox you."

Jiang Xun's gaze finally fell upon the panicked Lu Tao.

Lu Tao shuddered and tried to flee without a second thought.

His main reliance was this swamp, but now, this swamp had become his death trap!

Just as he turned around, dozens of pale hands suddenly reached out from the swamp, tightly grabbing his ankles!

It was those Human Race believers whom Jiang Xun had endowed with Water-Film Camouflage!

They had been lurking underwater like patient hunters, waiting for him to show a weakness!

"No!"

Lu Tao let out a hoarse roar, desperately pushing his Divine Power in an attempt to break free.

But it was too late.

Dozens of cold, glinting blades silently stabbed into his body from behind.

[Detection: Enemy God's God Kingdom core has shattered!]

[SSS-rank Talent Civilization Plunder activated!]

[Plundering...]

[Congratulations, you have successfully plundered the A-rank civilization: Water Domain!]

A series of cold notification tones rang in Jiang Xun's mind.

Meanwhile, in the outside world.

Everyone saw the light spot representing Lu Tao flicker wildly a few times before suddenly going out.

The entire venue fell silent.

From Jiang Xun's counterattack to breaking the array and then killing Lu Tao, the entire process took no more than thirty seconds!

An A-rank Prodigy famous in Jiangnan Province was gone just like that?

"Player... Player Lu Tao, God Kingdom signal has disappeared! Judgment... Eliminated!"

The commentator's voice was shaking violently.

On the open ground where the barrier had shattered.

Li Ang, Jiangnans First Shield, and Ghost Shadow felt cold all over, from head to toe.

The arrogance and pride on their faces had long since vanished, replaced by fear.

The roles of hunter and prey had completely reversed in an instant.

They looked at the youth standing amidst the mess, yet without a speck of dust on him.

He slowly turned around, his calm gaze falling on Li Ang's face.

That look was clearly selecting the next target.
