I Break through Crazily

”What should I do?”

Faced with the black shadow’s seemingly fatal sneak attack, the situation was critical, and Tang Yi was frantic.

’Right now, I can’t rely on anything. The only one I can rely on is myself!’

’The Battle God System can grant me immense power, but it can’t guarantee my survival.’

’If this black shadow’s sneak attack lands, even if I don’t die, I’ll be severely injured! And if I’m severely injured, what’s the difference between that and death?’

’Wouldn’t I just be killed the next second anyway?’

’So, I absolutely cannot let this black shadow hit me!’

’What do I do?’

Tang Yi’s mind raced, trying to find a way to escape.

”I’ve got it!”

As if he’d thought of something, Tang Yi glanced at an inconspicuous ring on his right hand and was overjoyed!

Flashing Ring: Special Item. Grants the Player the Instant Teleportation ability when equipped. Maximum teleportation distance: 100 meters. Usable once per day.

This was a life-saving item that Tang Yi had exchanged a huge amount of Battle God Value for after the battle with the Heaven-Devouring Thief!

Back then, Tang Yi had gritted his teeth and bought it despite the exorbitant price. He had never used it until now, but he never expected it to come in handy here today.

With a thought, Tang Yi activated the Flashing Ring.

SWISH!

And just as the black shadow was about to strike Tang Yi, plunging him to a point of no return, Tang Yi’s figure suddenly vanished. The next second, he reappeared over ten meters away, causing the black shadow’s fatal sneak attack to hit nothing but air.

”Huh?”

The black shadow seemed slightly stunned that its attack had missed, letting out a soft sound of surprise.

The black shadow hadn’t expected Tang Yi to be able to dodge its sneak attack. Moreover, he had even used some kind of magical method to teleport over ten meters away!

’So young, yet he possesses such techniques. This kid from the West Mansion is more than he seems...’ the black shadow thought.

”Who are you? Why did you ambush me!” Tang Yi glared at the black shadow, his face dark as he demanded in a harsh voice, his eyes filled with fury.

Of course, having been nearly killed for no reason, how could Tang Yi not be furious?

The fact that Tang Yi was only questioning him now, instead of immediately launching a frenzied counterattack to kill him, was a testament to his composure!

Just now, Tang Yi had used the Flashing Ring to teleport behind the black shadow. As a result, the black shadow currently had its back to him. Tang Yi couldn’t see its face at all and had no idea who this person with the power to kill him was.

However, while Tang Yi was furious at this black shadow that had appeared out of nowhere, he was also extremely puzzled. ’How could there be such a powerful expert among the examinees?’

’Logically, the group from the Heaven-Devouring Sect—all twenty-three of them—were eliminated by me. I double-checked. Not a single one escaped. It should be impossible for another powerhouse at the Battle King Level or higher to still be among the examinees!’

’Right now, the strongest person among the examinees is that student from the East District, Yuh Jili, but he clearly hasn’t reached the Battle King Level.’

’But this person before me...’

’To be able to threaten me, his strength must be above the Battle King Level. Maybe even... a Battle Emperor?’

’If he wasn’t at the Battle Emperor Level, how could he have successfully ambushed me!’

’After all, I’m someone who isn’t even intimidated by a Battle Emperor. My speed and power are already on par with a typical Battle Emperor—maybe even stronger!’

’For this black shadow to ambush me and make me feel like my life is in danger, his strength is obvious. He’s definitely a Battle Emperor!’

’And...’

’He must be a true Battle Emperor, not a Pseudo-Battle Emperor like Hex Anmin, who relied on drugs!’

’A Battle Emperor powerhouse appearing in the Little Extreme Sacred Land?’

’This is too strange.’

’Who is this Battle Emperor powerhouse?’

”Me? Hehe, didn’t I say it before? Who said I couldn’t come down? I’ve come down now!”

Hearing Tang Yi’s question, the black shadow chuckled and turned around.

And his appearance... Tang Yi had actually seen him before!

’Isn’t this one of the twenty disciples from the Heaven-Devouring Sect?’

Tang Yi remembered this person. Previously, Tang Yi had used the Six Yang Rejuvenation Finger, piercing the examinee’s forehead and killing him instantly. Right now, a gruesome, bloody hole was still visible on the Heaven-Devouring Sect disciple’s forehead. This wound proved that what Tang Yi had experienced wasn’t a hallucination; he had well and truly killed this examinee.

But to his surprise, this person hadn’t died even after all that, and had even suddenly gained the strength of a Battle Emperor!

’What is going on?’

’Wait a minute...’

’”Didn’t I say it before? Who said I couldn’t come down? I’ve come down now!”’

’Could it be...’

Recalling the words this Heaven-Devouring Sect disciple had just spoken, Tang Yi’s eyes widened as if he’d realized something.

Before, Tang Yi hadn’t understood what those words meant. But now, seeing the black shadow’s face and recalling what he had said, Tang Yi seemed to understand something...

”Could it be... Are you... the one from the cross...”

Tang Yi stared at the ’Heaven-Devouring Sect disciple’ in disbelief, his eyes wide as he spoke.

”That’s right. Hehe, you’re not too stupid, little one,” the Heaven-Devouring Sect disciple said with a sinister smile.

”How is that possible!” Still in disbelief, Tang Yi cast a Celestial Eye Technique on the black shadow to appraise it!

’The Celestial Eye Technique can identify anything and everything in the world. No matter what this bizarre thing in front of me is, the Celestial Eye Technique will definitely be able to identify it!’

Name: Zuoqiu

Level: ???

Cultivation Technique: ???

Martial Technique: ???

Weapon: Water Cloud Twelve Heaven-Flipping Seals (Divine Artifact???)

Description: Ancient Saint Zuoqiu was defeated in battle by the ancestor of West Mansion. After his death, his corpse was sealed within the altar in the Little Extreme Sacred Land. After the Heaven-Devouring Sect disciple Hex Anmin opened the altar, the Player fought him. By coincidence, a drop of blood fell onto Zuoqiu’s body, reviving his Divine Sense. Zuoqiu used a Secret Technique to transfer his Divine Sense into the body of an ordinary Heaven-Devouring Sect disciple, freeing himself from the binding of the altar and the Binding Spirit Nails, and has been free ever since.

Notice: Having lost his Heart’s Blood (Saint Spirit Blood), Zuoqiu’s strength has plummeted. Furthermore, by abandoning his powerful physical body, the strength he can wield is merely one ten-thousandth of his original power, equivalent to the One-Star Battle Emperor Level.

Assessment: Extremely Dangerous (Your strength is not far from your opponent’s, but the opponent poses a huge threat to you.)

...

Holy shit!

After reading the information from the Celestial Eye Technique, Tang Yi instantly understood the whole story.

’I can’t believe it. This dead Heaven-Devouring Sect disciple is actually the giant who was nailed to the cross!’

’This giant used some kind of Secret Technique to transfer his soul into this disciple’s body, freeing himself from the binding of the cross and those big nails!’

’So that’s why the giant revived! It’s because when I was fighting Hex Anmin, my blood dripped onto its body, and then it came back to life!’

’In other words, I’ve unknowingly unleashed a super-boss!’

’If one ten-thousandth of his power is already at the One-Star Battle Emperor Level, just how terrifying would this Ancient Saint named Zuoqiu be if he recovered his full strength?’
