CHAPTER 1275: CHAPTER 1275: BRING HIM TO SEE ME
Kuai Rong felt that from the very start, Yan Jin had intentionally concealed his true strength. Facing Su Ming’s attacks, Yan Jin assumed a stance of defense, defending continuously.
Relying on the power of the defensive Acquired Spiritual Treasure, he continuously endured Su Ming’s attacks. This wasn’t a tendency towards masochism, but rather, this person intended to lull Su Ming into a false sense of security. This strategy indeed succeeded.
When Su Ming had fully revealed his attack methods and his guard was somewhat lowered. Yan Jin then employed the Nihility Divine Ability, flashing before Su Ming, leaving him no time to react. It wasn’t that Su Ming suddenly became a simpleton forgetting he was in a battle, but the Nihility Divine Ability was simply too abrupt.
It all happened in an instant.
If Su Ming had been on high alert from start to finish, this move would not have been so effective, at least Su Ming would have had time to activate the defensive Acquired Spiritual Treasure. In that case, Yan Jin would not have been able to kill Su Ming so effortlessly, at the very least he would need to employ more attack methods.
"In this battle, Yan Jin defeated Su Ming and advanced." Kuai Rong announced the result.
"Thank you, sir!" After bowing respectfully, Jing Yan left the black battle stage.
"Elder Yan Jin...advanced?" Sect Master Gao Jufan was somewhat dumbfounded.
He thought Jing Yan was going to die at the hands of Su Ming from the God Ghost Sect, yet unexpectedly, the outcome was a dramatic reversal in the blink of an eye.
He wasn’t prepared for this!
"Elder Yan Jin’s methods are truly extraordinary!" Several Supreme Elders from the Xuanqing Sect thought to themselves.
After Su Ming was slain, most people didn’t understand what had happened at first. But after carefully recalling the entire process, they realized that it was Yan Jin Alchemist who had set a trap for Su Ming from the beginning, and Su Ming had just walked right into it.
For this, Su Ming paid with his life. Even in death, he probably never understood why he died.
Many people believed that Su Ming died unjustly.
In the great halls, there were also some stronger Martial Artists who saw through Jing Yan’s methods at the last moment. In an instant, he appeared in front of Su Ming and killed him with one sword. It should have been the power of the Nihility Domain.
Of course, even those who discerned that Jing Yan used a domain to kill Su Ming felt his death was unjust.
The Nihility Domain is not the type of Super Divine Ability used in direct combat. To die under such a Super Divine Ability is a stifling fate for anyone.
Purple Wood Divine Domain Great Hall.
Sect Master Liao of the God Ghost Sect had his mouth agape for quite some time before closing it again.
One moment, he was still bantering with other sect masters and others in the great hall, brimming with confidence, speaking of how Su Ming of his sect was about to eliminate his opponent and advance to the next round. Yet the next moment, Su Ming of his sect was dead.
This was such a huge irony.
In the great hall, after the initial shock, the other sect masters and others couldn’t help but feel an urge to laugh. Especially upon seeing Sect Master Liao’s expression, the pleasure in their hearts only grew stronger.
However, they all held back. At this time, laughing in front of Sect Master Liao could truly offend the Great Sect Master of the God Ghost Sect.
"Damn bastard! Despicable, cunning, shameless scoundrel, damn it!" Sect Master Liao took a deep breath, his vicious curses echoing in the great hall.
"The Immortal Bridge Meeting battle changes rapidly. Sometimes, even holding an absolute advantage, one might end up dying at the hands of the opponent. This kind of thing happens at every Immortal Bridge Meeting. If there’s blame, it can only be on Su Ming for being careless." The Domain Master of Purple Wood Divine Domain sighed lightly, looking at Sect Master Liao.
She, as the Domain Master of the Purple Wood Divine Domain, naturally hoped for her domain’s Martial Artists to win. However, she did not consider Yan Jin Alchemist’s methods problematic. In a life-and-death fight, can you blame the enemy for being smarter than yourself?
...
When Jing Yan returned to the Vast Smoke Divine Realm Great Hall.
Long Li’s expression was as if he had swallowed a lump of excrement. From the moment Jing Yan killed Su Ming on the black battle stage, he hadn’t said a word.
Even when Sect Master Gao Jufan actively asked for his opinion, he kept his mouth shut tightly.
Seeing Jing Yan walk in from outside, Long Li’s gaze swept over Jing Yan, wanting to roar out in frustration.
"Hahaha..."
"Yan Jin Alchemist, congratulations on advancing!"
"Elder Yan Jin, your methods are truly unpredictable. In this battle, my heart almost jumped out of my chest. To be honest, there were many times I thought you were going to die on the battle stage. Who would have thought, in the end, it was Su Ming who died at your hand."
In the great hall, many people congratulated Jing Yan. Sect Master Gao Jufan expressed his joy openly.
Elder Yan Jin advanced to the second round, as a representative of the Xuanqing Sect participating in the Immortal Bridge Meeting. What could be more wonderful than this?
Gao Jufan glanced at the Sect Master Xiao Wangyue of Yunxia Sect, thinking that Xiao Wangyue should be feeling some regret now?
Just based on advancing to the second round, it’s enough to use a recommendation spot for the Immortal Bridge Meeting!
Xiao Wangyue sat there expressionlessly, his gaze deep.
Back then, Jing Yan had directly told him, "You will regret it." At that time, he just sneered. At this moment, he really did feel some regret. But he absolutely wouldn’t admit he was wrong.
"What’s there to be proud of?"
"If relying solely on personal strength to fight, could Yan Jin kill Su Ming? It was just some tricks, and that fool Su Ming didn’t catch onto them. Hmph, just sheer luck."
Long Li finally couldn’t hold back and spoke, his words laced with acidity.
"Heh, my luck certainly is good." Jing Yan focused his eyes on Long Li: "I think my good luck won’t end here. I plan to continue on in the second and third rounds."
"Dream on!" Long Li roared.
...
In a special great hall, an aged figure sat cross-legged.
His body emitted extremely subtle waves of energy.
He was a Great Ability in the Master of Ten Thousand Gods realm.
The Immortal Bridge Meeting held in Star Moon Valley is a grand event in the entire God Realm. So every Immortal Bridge Meeting attracts many Great Abilities to personally come and observe. These Great Abilities each have their own great hall, some recommending juniors to participate in the Immortal Bridge Meeting, and some not recommending anyone.
At this time, a young and beautiful woman walked in.
"Master!" The woman bowed and called out.
"Hmm." The elder still kept his eyes closed.
"Master, that Yan Jin’s ability in the Alchemy Dao is indeed very strong. According to my investigation, Pill Master Zhenqing’s abilities in Alchemy Dao are vastly inferior to his." The woman spoke respectfully with her head lowered.
The elder opened his eyes at this moment: "Go and bring him to see me!"
