Chapter 706: Chapter 288: Shocking the Outside World!
Celestial Demon Headquarters, screams erupted, voices hoarse and exhausted.
Terrifying resentment and roars continuously emanated from Ao Tian’s mouth.
However, Jiang Shi had long ceased to pay any heed to Ao Tian.
At this moment, he stood tall atop a mountain peak, holding a blood-colored orb in his hand, covered with patterns, mysterious and ancient, exuding an ancient charm.
Thousand Tribulation Lock!
This was the Divine Artifact controlled by Ao Tian.
At this moment, under his Command Talent, all sorts of information about this Divine Artifact had swiftly entered Jiang Shi’s mind.
As he willed it, Command Talent activated, and suddenly the blood-colored orb trembled slightly, and countless blood threads surged densely from this orb, crystalline and mysterious, shimmering.
In the blink of an eye, these blood threads disappeared once more.
However!
Only he knew that these blood threads hadn’t truly disappeared; they had assumed an extremely peculiar form, merging with the void, becoming one with it.
This item is indeed mysterious.
If used for a surprise attack to kill an enemy, it would surely be successful without fail.
The crucial point is that once these blood threads tightened, they would act as countless locks, firmly trapping the enemy, making it impossible to escape regardless of one’s power.
Thousand Tribulation, Thousand Tribulation, this is exactly the meaning. freewebnovel.cσ๓
Jiang Shi’s eyes flickered, countless blood threads began to dance instantly, and the next moment they swiftly wrapped around a towering mountain peak, which then collapsed abruptly like tofu, debris shooting into the sky, shattered into pieces.
"Terrifying, this Divine Artifact is indeed terrifying. If used in a group battle, it would have unbelievably wondrous effects."
Jiang Shi murmured to himself.
But soon, he smiled.
No matter what power this Divine Artifact held, now it belonged to him.
It became another trump card for himself.
"However, capturing Ao Tian, once the news gets out, could trigger a huge uproar among the Alien Race."
After all, Ao Tian is one of the Dharma Kings of the Blood War Alliance.
Renowned for a long time, with profound strength!
Hailed as an invincible myth!
Beating him and turning him into a slave is tantamount to rubbing the face of the Blood War Alliance into the dirt, the impact on the Blood War Alliance would be unimaginable.
The Blood War Alliance likely won’t swallow this insult easily.
"But I don’t have much time to entangle with them; my agreement with Venerable Wuxiang is six months later, now calculating the time, at most there’s a little over a month left."
Jiang Shi frowned.
To travel from here to the Arctic, even as fast as possible, would take at least half a month.
That means.
At most, in the next ten days or so, he must set out promptly.
"Venerable Wuxiang is so confident in cooperating with me, I fear he has ulterior motives, it’s best if I can enhance my strength and trump cards once more, this way I can be fully prepared."
Jiang Shi murmured to himself.
In order to cope with the approaching storm, he resumed his cultivation.
The entire Celestial Demon Headquarters was in an uproar.
The battle between Jiang Shi and Ao Tian was witnessed by many people such as the Celestial Demon Sect Leader, Daoist Master Xuan, and Venerable Bai Mei.
They were utterly incredulous.
One of the esteemed Dharma Kings of the Blood War Alliance, Ao Tian, who bore endless halos and legends in the outside world, was surprisingly defeated by Jiang Shi.
This was truly shocking.
"Indeed, as expected, I did not misjudge, worthy of being Innate Vajra, truly worthy..."
The Celestial Demon Sect Leader’s eyes flickered, suddenly drawing a sharp breath.
Fortunately, they did not choose to become enemies with Jiang Shi back then.
Otherwise.
Wouldn’t it have been their Celestial Demon Sect that met its end today.
"Issue orders, no one is allowed to leak today’s incident, keep it hidden for as long as possible!"
The Celestial Demon Sect Leader’s voice sank.
"Yes, Sect Leader!"
Venerable Bai Mei took a deep breath and immediately bowed.
...
In fact, the outside world was already in an uproar.
Numerous strong individuals gathered in Qilin City, waiting left and right, yet they did not see the presence of Jiang Shi and Ao Tian. As a day passed and there was still no sign of the two, everyone was immediately thrown into chaos.
"What’s going on? Wasn’t today supposed to be the duel? Why haven’t they appeared?"
"Indeed, it was said there would be a duel in Qilin City today."
"The time and place are correct, why haven’t the people appeared?"
"What exactly is going on? Where is Jiang Shi? Ao Tian hasn’t appeared either!"
...
Countless discussions erupted at that place.
Even Meng Fang and Lin Ruye from the Ancient Five Races furrowed their brows, deep in thought, exchanging glances.
"Could there have been other unexpected events?"
Lin Ruye murmured to himself. freewebnσvel.cѳm
"It’s a pity, unable to witness this battle!"
Meng Fang blurted out.
"What’s there to pity or not, it’s just a one-sided crushing."
Lin Ruye sneered coldly, having suffered a terrible defeat to Jiang Shi before, with his body destroyed, he bore a deep grudge, his eyes were cold as he said, "I admit this Jiang Shi has extraordinary strength, but the idea of him defeating Ao Tian is utterly impossible. In my opinion, Ao Tian has probably already intercepted Jiang Shi on his way, and by now he’s already been slain. If you don’t believe it, just wait for the news!"
Meng Fang furrowed his brow but remained silent.
His years of sharp instincts told him that Jiang Shi was not so easily defeated.
This person’s talent and growth speed were the strongest he’d ever seen!
Even he paled in comparison!!
Such a person could not die so easily.
As he remained silent, lost in thought, suddenly mocking laughter came from not far away, saying, "What human’s top expert, it’s a joke. At this point, he doesn’t even dare to show his face. I think he is already scared, hahaha!"
