The entire canyon fell into deathly silence.
All the foreign race prodigies stared at the scene before them in stunned disbelief.
"Dong Huang is dead."
"The invincible dao bone of the 1.3-Tier Civilization... has fallen?" No one could believe what they were witnessing; it felt like a dream.
Clang! Clang! Boom!
Nearby, Yan Yi was still locked in fierce combat with Wang Zilu.
But in the next instant, he crushed a treasure, and with a deafening boom, his entire body transformed into a streak of Flowing Light.
Whoosh!
In a flash, Yan Yi burst out of the canyon, fleeing over a hundred miles in an instant.
"Run!"
"Escape now!" Yan Yi's eyes trembled with a hint of fear as he fled desperately, abandoning all pretense of dignity.
He had escaped.
But the Heaven and Earth Cage that had sealed the canyon remained intact.
The geniuses still trapped within paled.
"Your Highness!"
"Prince Yan Yi!"
"We haven't left yet!" several Heavenly Pride from the Heavenly Fire Civilization roared.
"Your Highness!" The black-skirted girl stared blankly into the distance, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Prince Yan Yi, the invincible, wise, and mighty ruler, had actually... fled?
Abandoning his own people?
No!
This couldn't be happening!
Boom! In that moment, something akin to faith collapsed within the black-skirted girl's heart—silent yet deafening.
Junior sister, don't blame me.
If I hadn't fled, I would have surely died. Yan Yi gritted his teeth as he fled at top speed. Even I couldn't withstand that spear strike.
He didn't know if Jiang Ye could unleash another such attack.
But Yan Yi refused to gamble with his life.
He was the Heavenly Fire Civilization's strongest dao bone!
He held the greatest hope of ascending to divinity in the future!
He couldn't die here.
Junior sister, I will erect a tombstone for you, Yan Yi vowed silently. I will repay this humiliation a hundredfold in the future. I will avenge you!
Boom!
Yan Yi continuously crushed treasures, each leap covering a hundred miles as he rapidly fled the canyon area.
Within the canyon, Jiang Ye didn't pursue Yan Yi. To him, wiping out the remaining enemies was far more efficient.
"Kill!"
Grasping his long spear, he formally began his clearing operation.
The Heaven and Earth Cage left behind by Yan Yi remained intact, trapping the hundreds of foreign race prodigies like fish in a barrel.
"Don't panic, everyone!"
An invincible dao bone shouted, "Let's charge together!"
Before he could finish, a terrifying spear light flashed past.
Boom! Head and body separated.
"Die!" Jiang Ye roared, gripping his spear tightly and unleashing his full power in an indiscriminate slaughter of the remaining foreign races.
These aliens had all come to encircle and kill him. Regardless of gender, none deserved mercy.
Thwack! Thwack!
Thwack! Jiang Ye wielded his spear, reaping alien lives across the battlefield.
A one-sided massacre.
Within the mysterious space,
"One spear, sweeping through over a dozen invincible dao bones?"
"Dong Huang went all out, yet couldn't withstand a single strike?"
"Yan Yi fled!" Ji Ba and Ji Wei stared in utter shock at the projected image.
This was undoubtedly the most unforgettable scene they had witnessed in their entire careers.
One man!
One spear.
Crushing over three hundred top-tier prodigies of the same rank, including more than a dozen with invincible dao bones.
What does it mean to sweep through the invincible?
This is what it means to sweep through the invincible!
"If I were Yan Yi, I'd run too," Ji Ba and Ji Wei said, their emotions a tangled mess.
Jiang Ye's explosive power was simply terrifying.
"Compared to three days ago,"
"Jiang Ye's strength has increased at least seven or eightfold!" The tall, black-robed Ji Ba couldn't help but exclaim. "How did he even manage that?"
Ji Wei shook his head in silence.
He was equally baffled.
"He hasn't even reached the fourth breakthrough yet. How could he improve so much?"
"Could it be that Jiang Ye was holding back before?" Ji Wei mused.
"That's certainly possible," Ji Ba nodded.
Compared to other explanations, this one seemed the most plausible.
"Regardless," Ji Wei, the short, black-robed figure, said gravely, "after this battle, no one in Area 3001 will be able to challenge him. Once Jiang Ye obtains the civilization key, we'll recruit him."
"His current performance qualifies him for entry into the Cangxu Civilization."
"Mm," Ji Ba nodded.
Jiang Ye's current performance would warrant significant attention even within the Cangxu Civilization.
At that moment, Ji Ba's expression shifted slightly, as if suddenly remembering something.
"That girl who fought Yan Yi earlier," Ji Ba pointed to a projection, "what's her name?"
"Her strength is no weaker than Yan Yi's."
"Why hasn't she shown any of this before?" Ji Ba frowned.
Hearing this, Ji Wei's expression also changed.
"I didn't notice it before either. It's quite strange."
"Let me check her information," Ji Wei said, waving his hand to initiate the search.
Second Star Ring, Area 3001.
Half a minute later.
Whoosh~
Jiang Ye's figure slowly descended to the canyon floor.
He had completely cleared the area.
The vast majority of alien powerhouses had been slaughtered.
Finally, Jiang Ye turned his gaze to the peerlessly beautiful girl standing beneath a rock wall nearby.
"What?" Wang Zilu asked with a smile. "Are you going to kill me too?"
Jiang Ye remained silent, refusing to take the bait.
"Why did you help me?" he asked, his eyes fixed on her.
Wang Zilu was still dressed in her white robes, without even wearing battle armor. The loose, flowing fabric couldn't conceal her jade-like figure.
Beneath the hem of her robe, a pair of flawless, slender legs peeked out, ending in delicate feet clad in thin white socks.
Even her style of dress closely resembled Chen Zilu's.
Yet Jiang Ye remained wary of her.
"You saved my life," Wang Zilu said with a smile. "I couldn't just stand by and watch my benefactor be surrounded, could I?"
"I saved you?" Jiang Ye raised an eyebrow.
Based on the opponent's demonstrated strength, Wang Zilu could have easily annihilated Hei Ming on that day.
Jiang Ye even suspected that the woman had been holding back during their recent battle. Aside from teleportation, he hadn't witnessed her unleash any other innate abilities.
"This woman's strength is definitely on par with Yan Yi's, possibly even greater," Jiang Ye mused inwardly. "Yet her name doesn't appear on the bounty list. Either she's using an alias, or she's hiding something else."
Jiang Ye leaned toward the latter.
He had encountered all the third breakthrough stage cultivators ranked in the top ten of the bounty list.
Only Wang Zilu remained completely untraceable.
Still, Jiang Ye kept his thoughts to himself. Everyone had their secrets.
Besides, she hadn't asked about his.
Just then, Wang Zilu's words suddenly caught Jiang Ye's attention.
"About Chen Zilu, whom you mentioned last time... I think I remember something. Want to hear it?"
