Chapter 1354: Creation

Chapter 1294: Creation

At this moment, another batch of people had already appeared in the arena. One was a Cruiser from the Neoverse, another was the Void Wanderer from the Astral Beast Domain, and the last was Burial Garden’s Yōu Qi.

Before, during the competition for the Astral Tower in the Mountain and Seas Zone, Yōu Qi had been one of the five predetermined to become one of the Cosmic Five. Unfortunately, he had been defeated by Lu Yin and the Ghost Monkey. Yōu Qi was extremely strong, and there were certain, practically unbeatable, aspects to him that made him a very difficult opponent.

What had impressed Lu Yin the most about Yōu Qi was his ability to turn immaterial, much like the illusory Progenitor Chen that Shang Qing was able to summon. Also, Yōu Qi had an illusory black flame as well as his innate gift. His innate gift allowed him to emulate even the Thirteen Swords, which was an amazing ability. It would only become more terrifying in the future, and it was possible that, eventually, Yōu Qi’s innate gift would allow him to emulate a massive attack that could instantly reverse the tides of battle.

The Cruiser from the Neoverse saw that his opponent was Yōu Qi, and his face instantly blanched.

Yōu Qi whistled, the sound desolate and sad. It melded into his illusory black flames, but most people could not even see him, which made the scene even more terrifying.

Despite not having his warhorse at the moment, Yōu Qi made for a fearful sight.

His spear, war flag, illusory black flames, and eerie whistle all merged together to create a frightening ambience. To most people, this looked like a living horror movie.

“I give up.” The Neoverse Cruiser instantly surrendered. He knew of Burial Garden’s reputation.

On the other side, while the Void Wanderer, Xu Ling, felt cautious, it was not afraid. It had survived through several difficult opponents, and it was impossible for anyone to even touch it. With this thought, Xu Ling’s figure flickered and vanished into the void.

This was not an unfamiliar scene to anyone present, as the entire universe had seen this ability before.

Many people instantly groaned.

Xu Ling’s fights were some of the longest in all of the one-on-one matches in ZENITH. Some people did not want to watch this battle, as it might not end for three days.

However, what happened exceeded everyone’s expectations, and even Yao Xuan was stunned.

Yōu Qi stretched out a hand and instantly grabbed a hold of Xu Ling.

Xu Ling was at a loss. What happened? Where am I?

The Void Wanderer was not the only one taken aback. Everyone was similarly stunned, especially those who had lost to the creature like Yun Feifei, Mira, and others.

Many people had lost to Xu Ling throughout the course of ZENITH. It had made it to this stage by surviving through both the hundred and fifty person battle royales. Thus, in total, it had faced more than a hundred people by now.

None of these people had been able to stop Xu Ling from escaping into the void, and they had been completely helpless against the Void Wanderer.

Who would have known that Xu Ling would be directly picked up by Yōu Qi.

Yōu Qi’s illusory black flames spread out to cover Xu Ling’s body, and the creature was frightened out of its mind. “I give up! I give up!”

This beast was absolutely terrified of death, more so than normal.

Yōu Qi threw Xu Ling away. The creature’s body quickly faded from vision as Yōu Qi appeared at the bottom of a flight of stairs.

Xu Ling collapsed to the ground, panting heavily. It looked up at Yōu Qi as though it were looking at a ghost. Just what had happened? How could Xu Ling’s perfect ability be completely useless against this guy?

At the bottom of a different staircase, Lu Yin grew thoughtful, and everyone else who was familiar with Yōu Qi seemed to have thought of something.

Yōu Qi himself was able to turn immaterial, so was this ability similar to Xu Ling’s? Yōu Qi had been able to grab the Void Wanderer, which seemed to indicate that their methods for avoiding physical attacks were the same.

This was not as simple as moving into the void, and Lu Yin was sure that there was more to it than the Yōu clan being an inheritor of Progenitor Chen’s techniques.

Xu Ling was not a powerful fighter, and it had gotten this far in ZENITH by levying the advantages of its species’ innate ability. If it had gone against someone else rather than Yōu Qi, then it might have been possible for the creature to make it even further up the mountain and into the final rounds.

Its fighting method was very strange.

Fifty people had made it to the first layer, and there were to be ten three-person battles, and ten two-person battles.

The next match would be the last of the three-way battles.

Fan Shun appeared first on the battlefield. He was from the Sixth Mainland and was the Realmling of the Progenitor of Secret Arts’ Territory’s Brahman Realm. Next, Bai Qian appeared. She was wearing a veil and wielding a longsword as she moved with grace and a fluid demeanor, though there was also an impression that strangers could not approach her.

Bai Qian was quite eye-catching, as some women were naturally more appealing.

Although her face was covered by a veil, half of her face was still exposed, which was enough for people to dream about.

Many people watching the livestream became excited, and they all stared at Bai Qian with fervent eyes.

On the first layer, in a certain corner, Starsibyl’s eyes flashed as she looked at Bai Qian. There was a long history between the two of them. Then, Starsibyl looked over at Lu Yin, who was at the bottom of a staircase. It was impossible to know what was going through Starsibyl’s mind.

Right after that, the third person of the tenth battle appeared: Jin He.

Lu Yin’s face fell when he saw Jin He. This person was Lu Yin’s enemy. If not for the people from Gods’ Origin interfering with their chase after Jin He in the Mountain and Seas Zone, then Jin He might not have left that place alive. Of course, it was also possible that he had hidden some of his strength.

After fighting against Lu Yin, Jin He had not shown himself again in the Mountain and Seas Zone, not even when the fight had broken out atop the golden stage.

Lu Yin had been keeping a close eye on Jin He, but unfortunately, he had not climbed up the eastern face of the mountain. If he had, he would have suffered a similar fate as Little Arrow Saint.

Nearby, God Taiyi’s face also fell. To Gods’ Origin, Jin He, along with all the other members of one of the Cosmic Sea’s major crews, were all traitors who had to be captured.

God Qingguang, God Xiaobai, and the others all gritted their teeth as well. “This traitor dares to show himself so openly.”

“It’ll be good if he died.”

On the first layer, the corners of Jin He’s mouth pulled up into a smile. His long hair fell to his shoulders, and his narrow eyes contained a playful glint as he looked at his two opponents.

Bai Qian was nothing to be concerned about, as she was just a Cruiser. Jin He had already broken through to the Enlighter realm, and even if he had not, a Cruiser did not qualify to challenge him. No, Jin He was paying the most attention to Fan Shun.

The Sixth Mainland’s Realmlings possessed the same level of strength as the Innerverse’s Ten Arbiters. Although there had been numerous victories and losses on both sides, the War King had once killed a Realmling in the Daosource Sect’s ruins.

And during ZENITH, Lu Yin had killed another.

After thinking of this, the smile on Jin He’s face grew larger. His look towards Fan Shun changed as though he was staring at prey.

There was a bang, and a white sword light flashed through the air as an extreme cold froze the void. Bai Qian shot forward and slashed at Fan Shun with her sword.

She and Jin He were both from the Fifth Mainland, so Fan Shun was their natural enemy.

Fan Shun quickly fell back. With his cultivation, he had no need to worry about Bai Qian, and he actually did not even need to pay much attention to any attack that she threw at him. However, Fan Shun was wary of Jin He. Those long, narrow eyes sent chills into the Realmling’s heart, and he instinctively used his innate gift.

A towering tree appeared and blocked Bai Qian’s sword while simultaneously blocking Jin He’s eyes.

At the bottom of a flight of stairs, Lu Yin felt odd; why was it a tree again? Yuhua Mavis had turned into a tree, and Lu Yin’s forcefield took the form of a tree as well.

Bai Qian slashed at the tree with her sword, causing half of the tree to freeze over. The branches suddenly came alive and wrapped around her. In response, she flipped her sword around, but she was unable to cut any of the branches. Thus, she decisively retreated and surrendered.

She was nothing but a Cruiser, so how was she supposed to compete against an Enlighter realm Realmling from the Sixth Mainland?

Fan Shun had never treated her as an opponent, and his true opponent in this battle was Jin He.

The tree grew even taller as a part of it began to wrap around Jin He while the other part began to produce treants that charged forward, stomping across the battlefield.

Every single one of the treants had the combat power of an Enlighter. Fan Shun’s innate gift seemed to produce them endlessly, as more than ten appeared every single second.

Countless people watching the broadcast felt their scalps go numb. There were not many Enlighters even across the entire universe.

Jin He was also taken aback, and he looked at Fan Shun with renewed interest. Branches twined above his head, all of them from the large tree.

Jin He’s pupils transformed into runes, and his gaze swept across the large tree as well as the attacking treants. Then, he leaped forward and sped past more than a dozen of the treants, causing all of them to instantly collapse.

Fan Shun’s pupils shrank; what had just happened?

He had not participated in the Sixth Mainland’s invasion of the Fifth Mainland, and thus, he knew almost nothing about Gods’ Origin, let alone the miraculous power of Truesight.

At this moment, he only knew that his innate gift had been weakened, and it had drastically weakened all at once.

On the first layer, God Taiyi frowned. Jin He’s cultivation of Truesight was in no way inferior to his own, which showed how amazing Jin He’s talent for Truesight was.

Jin He shot towards Fan Shun and raised his hand. A blue bead appeared out of nowhere, and Jin He hurled it straight at Fan Shun.

Fan Shun was taken aback. An item? This definitely looked like a power vessel, and Fan Shun shot back with his own attack. A cloud of blue light annihilated the void where he had just been standing, but he could not figure out what it was.

Fan Shun shouted, “You’re cheating!”

Jin He sneered and replied, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Fan Shun looked over at the rest of the contestants, but to his surprise, nobody seemed shocked by what had just happened. His heart sank. Just what had this person done? Creation?

At this moment, Zhi Yi called out, “Just go with it. He didn’t cheat.”

Fan Shun stopped thinking about the possibility that Jin He had cheated. Before him, Jin He smiled as he created all kinds of strange weapons that rushed forward to attack Fan Shun. In response, Fan Shun kept jumping around to avoid being beaten. These weapons seemed to be power vessels, which terrified him.

He slightly regretted not joining in on the invasion of the Fifth Mainland’s Human Domain, as if he had, then he would not be so clueless about this opponent.

Still, none of that mattered. Even if his opponent could create weapons or even power vessels out of nothing, he could not win against Fan Shun. After his thoughts reached this point, the Realmling’s eyes grew sharp, and he placed his hands on the ground. “Forest World.”

As he spoke, massive treants rose up from the ground, and beneath Jin He’s feet, even more treants appeared. He jumped up, but his calf was caught by the branches, and he was unable to break himself free. The branches were tough beyond imagination.

The treants appeared from all directions, and their branches covered the sky as the entire battlefield was instantly turned into a forest. At the same time, the intertwined branches covering the sky formed a huge hand that grabbed Jin He, pressing down upon him like the sky itself.

Jin He was surrounded by branches in all directions, and they had even formed a hand above his head that blocked out the sun and the sky. Everyone watching this through the livestream felt a sense of desperation.

This was the strength of the Brahman Realm’s Realmling.

Jin He’s eyes shot wide open, and his narrow eyes suddenly radiated a bone-chilling coldness. Ripples visible to the naked eye undulated as they spread out. A portion of every branch touched by the ripples’ rune lines were erased, and eventually the branches were shattered by Jin He’s star energy.

He jumped up high even as the massive hand above his head pressed down.

With a bang, Jin He was slammed into the ground. This time, the endless number of branches formed a cage that stabbed deep into the ground in an attempt to trap him.

Lu Yin shook his head. This was useless. Jin He and God Taiyi were both extremely skilled in using Truesight, and they were both able to form an all-directional defensive layer around their entire body. The moment any attack met that barrier, it would be greatly weakened.

Fan Shun’s branches had the tenacity and power to entangle an Enlighter with a power level of 300,000, but when they touched Jin He, their power level fell to no more than 200,000.

A power level of just 200,000 was nothing more than an annoyance to Jin He. It was almost as if he was not being attacked.
