"Madness..."
Among the spectators beneath the arena, murmurs of disbelief arose.
Five consecutive deaths, escalating the Dark Swordsman's attributes to a staggering 480%, combined with the 70% boost from the Unity of Man and Horse and the Courageous Heart!
Even for divine-level experts, how many could achieve such terrifying power surge when casting forbidden spells?
"Now... do you comprehend the terror?" Potter's expression remained unchanged. "If we allow the Dark Swordsman to flourish, even I will struggle to contain him. If not snuffed out in advance, his position will undoubtedly surpass symbolic significance..."
Nicole: "..."
Harry: "..."
The two fell into silence.
The magnitude of the Dark Swordsman's current advancement was something they could naturally grasp. But now, only at the Celestial Tier, with each increase in strength, the amplification became increasingly formidable. Without restraint, he would likely transform into an invincible demon, reigning supreme over the Eternal Continent!
...
"Swoosh!"
At a certain moment, space distorted, and the scene in view rapidly changed. The arena disappeared in the blink of an eye, replaced by a desolate desert, where ruins and debris met the eye, the air stagnant, the environment hostile.
Illusion!
And... a super-sized illusion!
A shiver ran through the onlookers.
"Ding!~"
System Prompt: You have used the skill [Myriad Manifestations], randomly creating the illusion: Death Desert, reducing the defense of all enemy units within a 500*500 range by 50%, decreasing attack speed by 40%, movement speed by 40%, and increasing your own attributes by 30%, lasting for ten minutes!
War Trample!
Like a gust of wind, Jiang Han's strength soared to unprecedented heights, creating whirlwinds as he lifted his foot heavily, slamming it into Lin Xuan's face.
"Bang—"
Lin Xuan remained unmoved, firmly planted in his spot.
-1301967!
Even with a 150% boost to all attributes, this kick still shattered a defense in the millions.
"Ding!~"
System Prompt: Crown Prince Lin Xuan uses the skill [Ban·Shackles of Heaven], increasing his tenacity by 300%, recovering 0.3% of his health per second, increasing the pain sensation of enemy units within a 20*20 range by 50%, lasting until the end of the battle!
"Die!"
Lin Xuan's sword sliced down, nearly severing Jiang Han's right shoulder, blood spraying.
-3745, 8413!
"Does it hurt?" His gaze ice-cold, Lin Xuan twisted the sword in Jiang Han's shoulder, intensifying the pain deliberately.
"Very much."
Jiang Han frowned slightly, then relaxed, swinging his sword again, its blade gleaming with red light, accompanied by streaks of golden light, its edge sharper.
-1, 4887, 9410!
The damage surpassed a hundred million.
The defense-ignoring Soul Breaking Sword combined with Shattered Stars triggered a critical hit, delivering the highest damage Jiang Han had ever inflicted, visibly reducing Lin Xuan's health by a significant margin.
"Hiss!"
Jiang Han swiftly counterattacked, shards of sword energy tearing through Jiang Han's flesh.
The wound was deep, revealing bone!
"Ding!~"
System Prompt: Crown Prince Lin Xuan uses the skill [Aura of Sovereignty], increasing the damage of the next attack by 600%!
"Ding!~"
System Prompt: Crown Prince Lin Xuan uses the skill [Windbreaker Sword Qi], dealing 1,2268,1604 damage to you, and reducing the recovery effect by 30%, lasting until the end of the battle!
Jiang Han seethed with rage, a cruel smile playing on his lips as he asked again, "Does it hurt?"
Disgust!
For some reason, he was deeply repulsed by the other's indifferent gaze and calm expression, as if... watching him struggle futilely.
"Very much."
Jiang Han mechanically replied, his hand relentless, striking again, depriving Lin Xuan of life, and once again, Lin Xuan struck back.
The next second, everything went dark.
"Ding!~"
System Prompt: Your skill [Ban·Endless Reincarnation] has automatically triggered, increasing all attributes by 560%!
Blood flowed backward, wounds healed, and Jiang Han stood up again, ready to kill Lin Xuan once more.
With no need for any skills, Jiang Han, relying on his speed advantage, repeatedly struck Lin Xuan, harvesting his health!
80%!
60%!
As time passed, Lin Xuan's health plummeted rapidly!
The Dark Swordsman's six deaths, his seventh return, were already posing a huge threat to him.
"Die, die, die..."
Lin Xuan seemed frenzied, trapped on the arena with nowhere to escape, nowhere to hide, only to face the battle head-on.
Why wasn't he afraid at all?
The Emperor and the First Demon God were watching from below the arena, so why was he devoid of any fear!
"..."
Silence pervaded the arena, stirring complex emotions and fears that lingered.
The courtiers were speechless.
They suddenly understood the Emperor's plight.
If this continued, who could defeat the Dark Swordsman at the same level?
If not stifled in its cradle, the future would almost certainly be drenched in blood and turmoil!
"Ding!~"
System Prompt: Your skill [Ban·Endless Reincarnation] has automatically triggered, increasing all attributes by 640%!
When Jiang Han died for the seventh time and stood up again, he had already reached the same level as Lin Xuan.
War Trample!
With increased speed, Jiang Han darted forward, striking Lin Xuan's chest with a kick, and the two once again entered a state of exchanging blows.
40%!
20%!
"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."
Cold light flickered as blades danced.
Lin Xuan was covered in wounds, his clothes torn.
Without Jiang Han's ability to resurrect after death, the counterattack was weakening, and he was even running out of energy, panting heavily.
Until a certain moment, Lin Xuan's health dropped to 1%!
"You lose." Jiang Han's face showed no joy.
This was his duel with Lin Shang. The Crown Prince was just a sacrificial pawn. Defeating the opponent did not mean the end.
"Ding!~"
System Prompt: You have used the SS-level skill [Sleight of Hand], but due to the special terrain, theft is impossible!
Special terrain...
Jiang Han was speechless.
"If you weren't the Dark Swordsman, I wouldn't lose!" Lin Xuan's face turned pale as the opponent's blade hovered over his neck. A mere slash would end his life.
Ban·Endless Reincarnation!
This was the most terrifying skill he had ever seen!
"If you weren't the Crown Prince, I wouldn't have to die seven times." Jiang Han spoke calmly, "If you want to attribute all my efforts to luck, I don't mind."
With that, he reached out his left hand. "If you don't want to die, give me the Heavenly Authority Token!"
Was the Heavenly Authority Token a guaranteed drop?
Jiang Han didn't know.
That's why he wanted to use his masterful hands to steal it, but it was a pity that he failed.
"..."
Hearing this, Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with light.
He suddenly thought that the other party's goal was the Tianquan Order, not his life!
Hand over the Tianquan Order, and he still has a way to survive!
"I swear to the God of Oaths, if you give me the Order of Heaven, I will never kill you!" Jiang Han continued to shake Lin Xuan's mind.
"Okay, I'll give it to you..."
Just when Lin Xuan was about to agree, his words suddenly stopped and his expression froze, dumbfounded.
"Uh-huh!"
In an instant, intense and bright golden light burst out from his body, almost drowning him.
"Tsk..."
Seeing this, Jiang Han's heart skipped a beat and he immediately chose to take action, slicing the opponent's neck with his sword.
MISS!
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Prince Lin Xuan comprehends the skill [Soul Burial]!
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Prince Lin Xuan uses the skill [Soul Burial], the level is temporarily raised to level 200, and he understands all the skills of his profession, which lasts for ten minutes. After the duration is over, he dies immediately!
