Previously on High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System...
The oppressive aura that had blanketed the world vanished completely.
It was evident that Hei Qing had swiftly decided to abandon this strategy upon recognizing its futility.
"Even without the Star-Suppressing Tower, I shall still find a way to suppress you!" Hei Qing's eyes blazed with murderous intent.
Witnessing Jiang Ye's formidable strength only intensified his desire to kill.
"Wang Ye, prepare yourself for death!"
Hei Qing uttered a low growl, and the light within him erupted explosively, his imposing presence soaring to an unprecedented peak in mere moments!
Clearly.
He had once again activated a potent secret technique, dramatically amplifying his power once more.
Advancing an additional hundred feet!
"Hoo!"
"Boom!"
Hei Qing extended his palm, and instantaneously, a colossal hand, vast enough to obscure the sky, manifested across the void. It tore through everything in its path, striking Jiang Ye with immense force.
This was an attack of immeasurable terror!
Beneath the awe-inspiring might of that giant hand, the very fabric of the void fractured layer by layer, revealing fissures akin to black holes, all converging to swallow Jiang Ye.
"Break!" Jiang Ye's figure exploded outward in a resplendent display of golden light, resembling a streak of golden radiance shooting forth.
And not only that!
"Sizzle~" An amalgamation of myriad natural laws converged, manifesting six colossal arms behind Jiang Ye. Each arm stretched for a thousand feet, adorned with intricate, mystical patterns, and pulsed with an aura capable of annihilating all existence.
[True God-level Ultimate Skill—Six-Armed Demon God!]
The six arms moved in unison, effortlessly rending the void asunder, and directly confronting the colossal hand.
"Boom!"
In less than a hundredth of a second, their collision was absolute. Jiang Ye's six arms rapidly closed in, ensnaring the black hole-like hand.
Then—
"Tear!"
The Six-Armed Demon God unleashed its power, obliterating the black hole hand on the spot and scattering it into countless motes of light.
"What?"
"It actually shattered my most powerful ultimate move?" Hei Qing was engulfed in disbelief. "Just how many extraordinary abilities does this Wang Ye possess?"
Each supernatural ability represented the supreme ultimate skill of a deity.
Within the Cangxu Civilization, among beings not yet divine, only a select pantheon of exceptionally powerful individuals could achieve mastery of supernatural abilities.
Such techniques were not to be shared lightly!
Even Hei Qing, who had dedicated over a century and a half to cultivation and possessed exceptionally rare innate talents, had only managed to learn two such supernatural abilities.
Yet, Jiang Ye? This was already his third!
And each successive one was demonstrably more potent than the last.
"Wonderful, our captain is safe!"
"How many more hidden trump cards does Brother Wang possess?" Zi Yaozhi, Zhao Zishuang, and the others were filled with elation, finding the turn of events almost unbelievable.
The majority of the techniques Jiang Ye had employed were completely new to them.
Zhao Zishuang, in particular, having observed Jiang Ye's ascent from the humble origins of Black Obsidian City through the trials within the Black Tower and now here on the Star Domain Battlefield, was astonished.
The supernatural abilities Jiang Ye had just unveiled were entirely unknown to her!
"Could it be that the captain has been holding back his true strength all along?"
"Surely he couldn't have cultivated these in just that single month, right?" Zhao Zishuang pondered silently.
She remained unaware.
These potent supernatural abilities had indeed been cultivated by Jiang Ye within the span of a single month.
The remarkable efficacy of the Third Tier Enlightenment Divine Jade was something even Zi Yaozhi and the others could not fully comprehend.
...
This fierce exchange made Hei Qing fully acknowledge the undeniable reality that the battle could not continue further: "I cannot defeat him. If this engagement persists, my resource expenditure will only escalate, and there's a genuine risk of Jiang Ye launching a decisive counter-attack."
"I must withdraw!"
Hei Qing let out a profound sigh internally, yet his outward actions betrayed no such hesitation.
Swoosh! He instantly transformed into a streak of light, making his escape towards the distant expanse of the starry sky.
"Attempting to flee now – is it not already far too late?" Jiang Ye let out a cold snort.
An inexhaustible surge of power enveloped him, rendering Jiang Ye the absolute focal point of the heavens and earth in that instant.
Boom~ With a single stride, Jiang Ye compressed the starry expanse beneath his feet, traversing a distance of ten thousand miles in but one step.
[True God-level Ultimate Skill—Shrinking Ground into Inches]
The 'Shrinking Ground into Inches' technique transcends mere augmentation of speed.
As a True God-level ultimate skill, its most formidable attribute lies in its uncanny ability to anticipate an opponent's escape trajectory, thereby facilitating precise and preemptive maneuvers.
"Hoo!"
With that singular step, Jiang Ye had already materialized at the very destination of Hei Qing's intended escape.
Simultaneously, a magnificent silver great bow materialized within his grasp. Countless spectral arms converged, drawing back the bowstring with immense force.
A terrifying concentration of energy began to build as a consequence.
[Star-Piercing Arrow Technique—Demigod Tier!]
Following Jiang Ye's masterful enhancements, the Star-Piercing Arrow Technique, upon reaching its pinnacle of perfection, possessed the capability to unleash tens of thousands of arrows in a single, instantaneous volley.
With the Six-Armed Demon God's backing, the prowess of this archery technique ascended to a new zenith.
Sixty thousand arrows could be unleashed in mere moments!
"Go!" Poised at the very spot where Hei Qing was in retreat, Jiang Ye suddenly released his grip, and an unending storm of arrows erupted forth.
Whizz, whizz, whizz!
An overwhelming volley of projectiles streamed out, precisely targeting Hei Qing's anticipated position.
Just as Hei Qing materialized from the void, having completed his escape maneuver, the sight of the innumerable arrows hurtling towards him caused his countenance to drastically shift.
"How can this be?"
"How did he foresee my landing point?" Hei Qing's heart was seized by profound shock, yet evasion was no longer an option.
The deluge of arrows was already upon him.
"Defend!"
"I cannot perish!" Hei Qing mustered all his strength, his eyes wide with terror.
The longer one endures life, the greater the fear of death, particularly for an ancient entity of a century's standing.
Hei Qing's strength was considerable, and he desperately erected a defense against the onslaught, but his form was nevertheless lacerated with bloody rents. Though grievously wounded, the injuries were not fatal.
Yet, in that precise instant.
Jiang Ye had already closed the distance with his long spear.
"Die!" Jiang Ye's gaze was frigid as he activated the Six-Armed Demon God's physique, brandishing six long spears and charging ferociously at Hei Qing.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The six lances sliced through the very fabric of space, engaging Hei Qing in relentless combat.
Bolstered by the Six-Armed Demon God, Jiang Ye's combat might surged to an unprecedented high, utterly overwhelming Hei Qing and forcing him into a blood-spewing retreat.
"Curses."
"Possessing such might, why did this scoundrel withhold it until now?" Hei Qing's heart was consumed by regret.
Had he any inkling of Jiang Ye's true capabilities, he would not have engaged head-on but would have bided his time for a decisive, fatal strike.
This was the cunning hallmark of a hundred-year-old practitioner.
His strategic acumen was evident in his patient vigil before the Star Array for over a month, refusing entry until the opportune moment.
However, his underestimation of Jiang Ye's apparent strength upon the latter's appearance sealed Hei Qing's doom.
"Boom—Crack!" Finally, Jiang Ye's six spears converged, shattering Hei Qing's final bastion of defense.
Thud—A spear plunged through!
At that instant, an unseen ripple propagated outward.
"Buzz!" A convergence of lights coalesced, forming a horned figure in a black-and-white robe before Hei Qing.
The prodigious talent—Mo Wushuang!
"So it really is you." Jiang Ye displayed no surprise; instead, his gaze turned even more steely.
He had harbored suspicions that both Hei Qing and Qing Si were dispatched by their nemesis.
These suspicions were now irrevocably confirmed.
Within the void, Mo Wushuang remained silent, merely casting a chilling glance at Jiang Ye before his spectral form gradually faded.
It was clear that Mo Wushuang understood his warning would be futile against Jiang Ye.
The confrontation between them had transcended mere conflict; it was now a battle to the death!
"No!" Hei Qing's desperate cry echoed as Mo Wushuang's phantom vanished, signifying the extinction of his final hope.
"It is finished." Jiang Ye's eyes blazed with homicidal intent.
Boom! A spear's radiance blazed across the heavens and earth.
This light, imbued with the power of the cosmos, emanated terrifying energy, piercing directly through Hei Qing's form. Under the explosive surge of myriad celestial and terrestrial Mysteries, his body disintegrated instantaneously, dissolving into a crimson mist.
The century-old behemoth, Hei Qing, had fallen!
"Now, it is your turn." Jiang Ye's gaze shifted towards another combat zone not far distant.
There, Qing Si was locked in a fierce engagement with Zi Yaozhi and their companions.
At this caliber of conflict, absent the deployment of divine skills or profound techniques, battles could conceivably rage for three days and nights without cessation.
Thus, despite being outmatched by Qing Si, Zi Yaozhi and the others had managed to hold their ground until this juncture.
"Attack!" Jiang Ye, his six arms wielding spears, charged directly into the fray.
"Boom!" A cataclysmic spear light swept across the area as Jiang Ye forcefully inserted himself into the ongoing battle.
Thud~!
Qing Si, already at a disadvantage compared to Hei Qing, had only reached the mid-stage of the Eight Breaks level in mysteries. Under the combined assault of Jiang Ye and Zi Yaozhi, escape was an impossibility.
Swiftly, his skull was impaled by Jiang Ye's spear.
Thus, both ancient powerhouses met their demise!
"Crash~" A torrent of revelations flooded Jiang Ye's consciousness, causing his very being to tremor.
[Killing and Stealing Treasures]
This particular ability facilitated the plunder of minor cultivation insights; however, the more potent and venerable the vanquished adversaries, the purer the harvested understandings.
And at this very moment.
After eliminating monsters that had lived for two centuries, Jiang Ye naturally reaped immense rewards.
"Buzz!" Jiang Ye's eyes narrowed, a golden hue momentarily flashing within his pupils.
At the same instant, an unseen ripple emanated from his body.
In the following moment, empowered by this newfound understanding, Jiang Ye's 'Mystery of Earth' technique surged forward, achieving the mid-stage of the Eight Breaks level!
