High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 785: Chapter 414: A Slap! Instant Fame from a Single Battle (An additional update for the ‘Warm Sun 1314’ Gold Alliance)_3

“Leng Yan.” Ji Ming couldn’t help but look towards Leng Yan; the stake was too big and made him feel uneasy.

If he lost, he couldn’t afford the compensation.

“Betting battle, no external items allowed; his strength is definitely not as good as yours,” Leng Yan transmitted a message: “As long as you defeat him, the five hundred Fangshen Crystals you win will all belong to you.”

“If you lose, as long as you’ve given it your all… I won’t blame you.”

Ji Ming’s eyes reddened at the chance to win five hundred Fangshen Crystals?

“Alright, I will use all my strength to defeat him,” Ji Ming said in a low voice.

Swoosh!

Ji Ming also leapt into the fighting arena.

Immediately, an invisible force swept across, and a hazy light emerged on both Li Yuan and Ji Ming.

It was the power of the formation enveloping the fighting arena.

“The rules of the battle, I will repeat them once more.” The woman in the purple garment, being a Semi-Divine Peak Expert, said in a deep voice: “No use of any external items is permitted, no lethal harm allowed, and there will be a protective aura on your surface… Once the power contained within the protective aura is exhausted, the battle is declared lost.”

“Start!”

The woman in the purple garment flashed out of the arena’s boundary.

And the hundreds of Semi-Divines present were all watching the arena, eager to see the outcome of this battle.

In the arena.

“Boom!” Ji Ming’s aura suddenly burst forth, instantly using the Body Refining Star Technique, turning his body into ten meters tall, his aura almost reaching Semi-Divine level.

“Kill!”

Ji Ming, with Combat Saber in hand, pounced towards Li Yuan like a bolt of lightning, a dazzling saber light cutting through the vast sky, instantly triggering violent Law Fluctuations, and reaching in front of Li Yuan.

Although he was only of Six Star Pulse, being ranked in the top ten of the Flying Heaven List in the Divine Fire Palace, he had also entered the Threshold of the Law.

In terms of strength, he had definitely reached the Semi-Divine Level.

Even facing Fang Hai of the Flying Heaven Level, he would have the power to fight… regretfully, he was up against Li Yuan.

“Hu!”

Li Yuan took a step forward, his body also turning into ten meters tall, his Life Breath much more vigorous and wild, and this was still the result of him deliberately holding back.

The next second.

Li Yuan slightly raised his hand as if pressing on the void.

And strands of earthy yellow energy had already risen from nowhere, then condensed in the void into a giant energy palm.

“Suppress!” Li Yuan gently pressed down with his palm, and the enormous palm in the void also burst forth, striking at Ji Ming.

“Not good.”

Ji Ming only felt the whole world rumbling and changing, that terrifying giant palm, harboring an unstoppable might, crushing down layer by layer, directly crushing the saber light he had slashed out.

Immediately after, it struck upon his Combat Saber, sending the saber flying.

In the end, it directly hit his body, causing the hazy aura on the surface of his body to shatter with a bang.

“Pfft~” Ji Ming was sent flying backward, spewing out fresh blood, his eyes filled with horror.

In a single engagement.

Not only was the formation’s protection of the arena broken, but he was also directly and severely injured.

They were simply not on the same level.

“Too weak.” Li Yuan shook his head, not having fully revealed even the might of his Heaven and Earth River Domain.

He had planned to keep a low profile.

But since the opponent was aggressively challenging him, then it was time to show a fraction of his strength.

This way, it would deter all sides, saving much trouble.

…

“What?”

“Ji Ming was defeated in just one encounter? How is that possible!”

“Ji Ming was a Semi-Divine Level fighter after all.”

“That palm, it’s probably close to the Semi-Divine Peak level, why do I feel that wasn’t his full strength?”

“The Flying Heaven Level can burst out with such strength?”

“Monster! Has my Abyss Country once again birthed an extraordinary genius?” The hundreds of Semi-Divines watching were dumbstruck.

For the Flying Heaven Level to burst forth with strength at the Semi-Divine threshold was already incredibly rare, one in a million.

To burst forth with power close to Semi-Divine Middle Rank was almost the stuff of legends in the Flying Heaven Realm; only the historical number one on the Flying Heaven List from Abyss Country typically reached this level.

Someone like Li Yuan? A single slap, and it’s close to Semi-Divine Peak strength? Throughout the tens of thousands of years of Abyss Country’s history, there has never been such a case.

“Brother Xu Yuan.”

“Impressive!” Jiang Shan and Baili Teng looked at each other, both of their eyes filled with shock.

Even they, both previously ranked number one on the Flying Heaven List during their Flying Heaven Level, were not as powerful.

“This! This Xu Yuan, how could he be so formidable?” Yan Long was also dumbfounded: “Such a figure, and when I previously spoke to mock, he didn’t even argue back?”

“Yan Long, are you convinced now?” Jiang Xuan transmitted a message.

“Convinced! Convinced.” Yan Long shook his head repeatedly: “He’s even more monstrous than Jiang Shan, how could I not be convinced?”

Just now, he had looked down on Li Yuan.

But now he understood that with Li Yuan’s strength, he could easily take the number one spot on the Flying Heaven List.

“Remember the fifty Fangshen Crystals you owe me, don’t think about reneging,” Jiang Xuan transmitted.

Yan Long’s face instantly turned ugly.

…

The breaking of the protective layer on Ji Ming’s body signaled the end of the confrontation.

Above the arena.

“Young Master Xu Yuan wins,” said the woman in the purple garment directly, her voice filled with respect.

If at first she addressed Li Yuan as ‘Young Master Xu Yuan’ out of professional habit, she now did it from the heart.

As a Semi-Divine Peak Expert, she was very clear that being able to unleash such strength at the Flying Heaven Level was monstrously incredible.

Such a genius.

Perhaps his Law Comprehension was already close to Semi-Divine Limit. If he continued to cultivate, becoming a Pseudo-God would come as natural as breathing… As long as he lived, there was a great chance of True Godhood.

A True God, throughout the entire Jue Xing Continent, belonged to the superpower elite.

Even within the Jue Xing Ancient City, True God strongholds were part of the high echelons.

It could be said.

Predictably, as long as Li Yuan lives, he will become one of the topmost experts within the territory of Abyss Country.
