High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 626: Chapter 346: Number One on the Stellar Rankings

Jiang Ye has a high talent in the Mystery of Earth.

According to Bai Gui, when others initially perceive the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth, they can only see a few sparse rays of light.

But Jiang Ye? Careful comprehension reveals a vast halo of earthen yellow light.

In fact, each ray of light is composed of the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth.

A large halo means the convergence of hundreds to thousands of light rays, containing an astounding amount of the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth.

However.

Perceiving mysteries is one thing, comprehending them is another.

”According to Bai Gui,” Jiang Ye thought to himself, ”the more Mysteries of Heaven and Earth one can sense, the higher one’s affinity for it.”

”But a higher affinity doesn’t mean a faster comprehension speed.”

”Comprehending and perceiving are two different things.”

”Fortunately, my ability to comprehend the Mystery of Earth is also quite outstanding.” Jiang Ye smiled.

In just half a month.

His Mystery of Earth advanced from the early stage of the Seventh Break to the late stage, which is an astonishing speed of comprehension.

According to Bai Gui, Jiang Ye’s talent in the path of earth rivals that of certain prodigious talents.

And this time.

Taking advantage of the combat opportunity, Jiang Ye’s Mystery of Earth broke through once more, finally reaching the threshold of the Peak of Seven Breaks!

”Break!” Jiang Ye grasped the long spear, unleashing an endless surge of earthen yellow light.

Rumble!

The opposing energies of blue and yellow clashed fiercely like an avalanche, causing the earthen yellow light to surge explosively.

In a flash, the blue energy was completely submerged.

”It’s over.” Jiang Ye swung the long spear, gathering a massive amount of the Mystery of Earth to form a spear beam tens of meters long, thrusting it towards Zhou Kun.

Though the spear beam was only tens of meters long, far smaller than the previous kilometer-long giant sword,

its emanating waves were enough to make any powerhouse at the Peak of the Seventh Break turn pale.

Big doesn’t necessarily mean strong.

”Swoosh!” The spear beam pierced the void, carving out a hundred-meter-wide wave, terrifyingly powerful, shooting towards Zhou Kun like lightning.

”Such power?”

”I can’t block it.” Zhou Kun’s pupils shrank, and in his mind, there was only one thought left.

Escape!

Without hesitation.

”Whoosh!” Zhou Kun invoked the endless Mystery of Water to shield himself while his form shot off into the distance, trying to flee the battlefield.

Moreover, a thousand-meter-tall majestic Dharma Aspect rose from the ground, surrounded by layers of water shields that were almost impenetrable.

All this was completed in an instant, Zhou Kun’s speed reaching the extreme as he dashed away.

But Jiang Ye’s spear was even faster!

”Swoosh!” A lightning-like spear beam sliced through the air, reaching him in the blink of an eye.

”Hand over the Fire of Civilization and you may go free!” Jiang Ye’s cold voice reached him.

Simultaneously, his spear was already at Zhou Kun’s side.

Crack!

The terrifying spear intent, containing the Mystery of Earth, directly tore through Zhou Kun’s defenses, its momentum unabated, fiercely stabbing towards his chest.

The layers of defenses Zhou Kun had previously deployed, in front of this single spear, were as fragile as paper, breaking apart effortlessly.

Splurt!

The spear beam pierced through!

With incredible speed, like a rainbow cutting through the sun, it directly penetrated Zhou Kun’s chest.

Rumble! The terrifying might completely shattered the thousand-meter-tall Dharma Aspect, scattering it into countless light particles.

Swoosh!

Zhou Kun used this force to flee far away.

”The destruction of my Heaven and Earth Dharma Aspect is significant, yet not life-threatening,” Zhou Kun mused, ”I am the top of the Star Rankings; I can’t fall here!”

He was unwilling to be eliminated like this.

By now, all the participants, including Zhou Kun, had the same guess... there was a great secret hidden behind the ruins of civilization.

So, the longer they stayed, the better!

”Escape!”

Bam! Zhou Kun suddenly crushed a jade talisman, a seventh-tier treasure meant for life-saving in crucial moments.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, he turned into a stream of light, shooting out a thousand miles away, completely leaving the battlefield behind.

”Can you escape?” Jiang Ye snorted coldly, a silver-white bow appearing in his hand.

Boom!

Jiang Ye stretched the bow, and instantly numerous earthen yellow rays gathered, with thousands of arm-like shadows appearing around him, pulling the bowstring together.

A terrifying energy gathered wildly, causing the entire bow to tremble violently, as if it would break at any moment.

”Go!” Jiang Ye suddenly released the bowstring.

In an instant.

”Whoosh whoosh whoosh!” Thousands of arrows formed by the Mystery of Earth shot out like a violent storm.

Archery: Piercing Star!

”My Star-Piercing Arrow Technique has reached Great Success, able to shoot two thousand arrows in an instant,” Jiang Ye mused, ”But, this Fallen Star Bow is too low-grade to withstand such energy.”

”However.”

”Even just a thousand is enough to handle Zhou Kun.” Jiang Ye gazed into the distance.

Bang bang bang!

Thousands of arrows shot out with supersonic speed, producing terrifying sonic booms, catching up to Zhou Kun a thousand miles away in no time.

”What?”

”How is this possible?” Zhou Kun felt an immense life-and-death crisis descending upon him. As he attempted to flee desperately, he was shocked to realize he couldn’t move.

[Void Seeking Enemy: Distance over ten meters, long-range hit rate increases by 100%, damage increases from 1% to 100%, the farther the distance, the greater the damage, with a 0.1% chance to put the target in a ’Void Imprisonment’ state.]

0.1% chance of Void Imprisonment!

The probability was small, but when thousands of arrows were shot simultaneously, this probability greatly increased.

”Not good.”

”This power?” Zhou Kun’s perception was acute, and in an instant, he realized that these arrows posed an immense threat to him.

If it were just one or two arrows, they wouldn’t be much of a concern.

But with thousands coming at once, if he didn’t die, he’d be severely injured.
