Upon hearing Yan Sheng's words, King Beize and Old Man Canghai, seated within the massive palace, were visibly shaken, their expressions completely changing.
That Blue Star genius?
Which one?
"Are you talking about Jiang Ye?"
"Impossible!"
"Dong Huang, Yan Yi, and over a dozen dao bone prodigies... all killed by him?"
"Just a few days ago, when he fought Ji Bei, his strength wasn't nearly this formidable," King Beize and Old Man Canghai exclaimed, unable to conceal their shock.
They were no strangers to the geniuses of the Heavenly Fire Civilization. Even without considering the invincible dao bones of Yan Yi and Dong Huang, each of the dao bone prodigies was at least as strong as Ji Bei, if not stronger. Yet Jiang Ye had slaughtered them all?
This is beyond absurd!
"The facts speak for themselves," Yan Sheng said coldly.
"What about Yan Yi?" King Beize still clung to a sliver of hope. "Yan Yi is a direct disciple of the Divine. His power should be enough to kill Jiang Ye, right?"
"Hmph!"
"Yan Yi?" Yan Sheng scoffed. "That brat sent me a message. He never even participated in the ambush against Jiang Ye."
"Now it seems his choice was the right one."
"Jiang Ye killed over three hundred top-tier dao bone geniuses in a single battle!" Yan Sheng said coldly. "This included more than a dozen invincible dao bones."
"What?!"
"Three hundred people in one battle?" King Beize and Old Man Canghai were utterly shocked, their voices trembling with disbelief.
According to Yan Sheng's account, Jiang Ye had treated dao bone prodigies like chopping vegetables. And to think that over a dozen invincible dao bones had been annihilated—when had such rare talents become so worthless?
"How could he have done that?"
"This is impossible!" Old Man Canghai had never witnessed such a feat. Even with Yan Sheng's personal testimony, the claim seemed utterly inconceivable.
"Are you suggesting that the deaths of over a dozen Heavenly Fire Civilization prodigies were fabricated?"
"And Dong Huang's death—was that also a lie?" Yan Sheng asked coldly. Though merely a phantom, his aura radiated overwhelming killing intent.
"I wouldn't dare," Old Man Canghai said, trembling as he bowed deeply.
"Hmph!" Yan Sheng snorted coldly.
"In any case..."
"I will no longer interfere with that Blue Star genius," Yan Sheng said coldly. "And I advise you to do the same. Don't provoke him again."
"If my guess is correct, this young man has likely already been noticed by the second-tier civilization, the Cangxu Civilization."
"Given his exceptional performance, there's a very high chance he'll be recruited by the Cangxu Civilization," Yan Sheng warned icily.
A moment later, Yan Sheng's figure slowly dissipated.
King Beize and Old Man Canghai stood motionless, staring silently at the chessboard.
Suddenly,
Bang! King Beize slammed his fist on the table, shattering the entire chessboard. Countless chess pieces flew into the air, pulverized into dust by an invisible force.
"Damn it!" King Beize's face turned ashen.
Old Man Canghai stood to the side, sighing inwardly.
He knew that from this day forward,
it would likely be impossible for the Fire Ember Civilization to kill Jiang Ye on their own.
News of the battle in the canyon had spread far beyond the Heavenly Fire Civilization and the Fire Ember Civilization. Most of the cosmic civilizations that had entered the Star Realm Sea had heard about it.
Black Abyss Civilization.
In a high-level conference room, numerous top-tier experts from the Black Abyss Civilization had gathered to discuss the events in the Star Realm Sea.
Originally,
Given their status, these individuals would normally pay little attention to the Star Realm Sea.
But this year's Star Realm Sea had witnessed an event that even astonished them.
"All the third breakthrough geniuses we sent, including Hei Ming, have perished."
"They were all killed by the same person."
"I've already obtained information about this individual," the leading strongman said in a deep voice. "This person not only assassinated Hei Ming and the others but also eliminated over three hundred dao bone prodigies and more than a dozen invincible dao bone holders."
"According to reports, even Dong Huang of the Heavenly Fire Civilization fell by his hand."
As the words fell, a wave of commotion swept through the conference room.
"Who exactly is this person? What's his name?"
"Does he truly possess such extraordinary Dao Bone Aptitude? Could he be an agent sent by the Cangxu Civilization?"
"Exactly!"
"How could anyone be this powerful?" The dark-faced strongmen couldn't believe it.
One person had single-handedly wiped out over three hundred geniuses of the same level.
Even from their perspective, such a feat was exceedingly rare.
"I've already sealed all information about this genius."
"You are forbidden from investigating further," the leading strongman declared sternly. "Our Black Abyss Civilization cannot afford to make an ally of such a prodigy, but we must never make an enemy of him either."
He knew that some among them harbored vengeful sentiments.
After all, the fall of Hei Ming and numerous other geniuses had dealt a severe blow to the Black Abyss Civilization.
Especially Hei Ming!
Many of these geniuses were disciples of the Black Abyss Civilization, so the assembled powerhouses undoubtedly harbored resentment toward Jiang Ye.
Yet this peerless prodigy, with his extraordinary talent, possessed the potential to reach the peak of the ninth breakthrough, or even take that crucial final step.
The Black Abyss Civilization couldn't afford to antagonize him.
Unless this genius offends the Cangxu Civilization, the leading powerhouse sighed inwardly. Otherwise, let today's grudges be buried by history.
Similar scenes unfolded across numerous 0.8- and 0.9-tier cosmic civilizations.
Even the rare first-tier civilizations turned a blind eye.
The deaths of a few dao bone geniuses were insignificant.
Antagonizing a future powerhouse over this matter wasn't worth the risk.
Most importantly, these first-tier civilizations understood that such top-tier geniuses were highly likely to be noticed by the Cangxu Civilization.
They would refrain from expressing any stance until the Cangxu Civilization made its position clear.
The outside world remained in turmoil.
In Area 3001 of the Second Star Ring, Jiang Ye had found a new secluded cultivation spot.
He stood in a snow-covered valley.
"Comprehension."
"Incredibly diverse," Jiang Ye murmured, still processing the insights flooding his mind.
He had consecutively slain over three hundred dao bone prodigies, including more than a dozen with invincible dao bones. The cultivation insights from all of them now surged into his consciousness.
Though the Kill to Plunder ability only extracted a minuscule amount of cultivation insights, the cumulative effect of these fragments from over three hundred top-tier geniuses was immense.
"These insights, though fragmented," Jiang Ye mused, carefully absorbing each one, "are each incredibly refined. Among them, dozens pertain to spearmanship."
"And within these spearmanship insights, one stands out as particularly pure."
"It must be from Dong Huang," Jiang Ye concluded with a smile.
He had a premonition: once he fully assimilated these insights, the Luoshen Spear Technique would likely undergo an unimaginable transformation.
This advancement wouldn't just be a matter of realm progression; it would fundamentally elevate the technique's foundation, drastically raising the Luoshen Spear's potential!
"Let's begin," Jiang Ye murmured, closing his eyes and focusing intently on digesting the insights within his mind.
Meanwhile, Bai Gui, who had been discreetly observing Jiang Ye, suddenly wore a puzzled expression.
"Hmm?"
"Jiang Ye... he's inexplicably entered a state of Enlightenment?" Bai Gui exclaimed in astonishment. "He hasn't even consumed an Enlightenment Divine Jade!"
That's right!
At that moment, Jiang Ye stood motionless, doing nothing.
Yet in the blink of an eye, he entered an extraordinarily profound state.
To Bai Gui, it seemed as if Jiang Ye had simply been standing there, lost in thought, when he naturally slipped into a state of Enlightenment.
Just then—
Whoosh! A long spear suddenly materialized in Jiang Ye's hand.
Swish... Swish...
Swish! With his eyes closed, Jiang Ye swung the spear, unconsciously executing the techniques of the Luoshen Spear Technique.
Each thrust and strike flowed seamlessly, yet within these familiar movements, something new had quietly been incorporated.
"Oh?"
"This isn't just ordinary Enlightenment?" Bai Gui murmured, watching silently. "He's modifying the spear technique?"
"He's being too hasty."
"The Luoshen Spear Technique already ranks among the pinnacle of the third breakthrough stage," Bai Gui thought, shaking her head inwardly. "To improve it further, he'll need to reach the fourth breakthrough."
"Jiang Ye doesn't yet possess the necessary perspective."
She knew that Jiang Ye had created the Luoshen Spear Technique himself.
Even with a self-created cultivation technique, improvement wasn't easy.
In fact, self-created techniques were often limited by the creator's initial mindset, making them even harder to refine.
Historically, the vast majority of improved cultivation techniques were not refined by their founders, but by later generations.
Just as Bai Gui was pondering this, she suddenly noticed Jiang Ye.
