Chapter 492: Three Celestial Sacrifices

Xia's family announced the rules for the second round of the competition.As the outside world has spread, this competition is no longer like previous years, with ten challengers competing in pairs, bu...Jiang Yun's calm voice, drowned out the roars of nearly ten thousand tamed beasts. It echoed not only over this vast arena but also in the hearts of every single person.

Jiang Yun is actually going to challenge Xia Zhongwu!

The Realm of Blessings challenges the spiritual realm, something that has never happened in any world, not even imaginable.

...to the point where everyone was utterly silent, staring dumbfoundedly at Jiang Yun. They truly had no idea where he got the courage, or what kind of backing he had, to utter such bold words.

"Haha!"

Xia Zhongwu's mouth suddenly let out a wild laugh and said: "You think, just by summoning these beasts, you have the qualifications to challenge me"

"It seems you have a terrible memory. Let me remind you what happened to those animals before!"

As soon as his voice fell, he waved his hand. The sea of fire on the platform vanished instantly, revealing over a thousand corpses that had been burned into charcoal, emitting the smell of burnt flesh.

Obviously, Xia Zhongwu clearly wanted to provoke Jiang Yun.

To be honest, seeing so many beast tamers summoned by Jiang Yun, Xia Zhongwu's heart was also shocked.

As a member of the Xia family and one of its nine sons, he knew far more than others. Therefore, his shock was immense.

Someone who can control nearly 10,000 beasts at the same time, this kind of talent is perhaps exactly what the Xia family has been looking for—someone who can unlock the secrets of the Tianqi Daojian.

If someone else had done this, Xia Zhongwu might have turned a blind eye and let the other party go. But since it was Jiang Yun, he couldn't possibly forgive him under any circumstances.

Even, Jiang Yun had to die, dying before the head of the Xia family arrived, dying before Xia Minglou was released!

Jiang Yun's gaze slowly swept over those bodies that had just been fighting side by side with him, but were now reduced to ashes.

Originally, he indeed wanted to use the power of these ten thousand beast tamers to deal with Xia Zhongwu. However, the activation of the Fuyin Seal unexpectedly made him gain more recognition from the Mirage Tower and obtained the opportunities given by the Mirage Tower, so he changed his mind.

Jiang Yun bowed to the thousand skeletons, "I will personally kill him and avenge you all!"

As soon as his words fell, Jiang Yun's hands quickly formed hand seals and struck the sky with force.

"A sacrifice to Heaven!"

"Two sacrifices to Heaven!"

"Three sacrifices to heaven!"

Three consecutive sacrifices drained Jiāng Yún's face, leaving it ashen and pale. The fire within her dwindled to a mere ember, threatening to extinguish at any moment.

Having offered his extraordinary vitality as a sacrifice to the heavens, though in the eyes of everyone, Jiang Yun appeared to be on the brink of death, a powerful aura that was completely incongruous with his life force emanated from his body.

This aura, it's cultivation!

Beyond Jiang Yun's body, a monstrous storm raged, causing the clouds and wind to tremble, and the sky to change color. The massive fighting arena swayed left and right under the influence of his aura, as if it could collapse at any moment.

Spirit Realm!

Jiang Yun, with three sky-ascending rituals that defied heaven, allowed his strength to forcefully enter the Dao Spirit Realm.

Although he didn't truly nurture his own spirit, relying on his powerful physique and the imposing aura generated by the three different blessed lands within his body, his strength was in no way inferior to a true Spirit Realm expert.

This also allowed him to have the strength to fight Xia Zhongwu!

especially his eyes, which looked lifeless and dull because of the loss of vitality.

However, his insides were clearly filled with black ghostly energy, causing him to faintly possess some characteristics of the ghost clan. This further added a sinister and eerie feeling to him.

At this moment, Jiang Yun's actions have left everyone with expressions of disbelief.

Just as Jiangyun had guessed before, in this ancient desolate realm, the gap between realms was not as insurmountable as it was in the Shanhai Realm.

Many familial secret techniques possessed by various clans, such as those of Li Yue and Feng Da Shi, can enhance one's abilities in a short period.

But, this kind of improvement is actually still within a small realm.

Because the division of cultivation realms in this world is very general, there are only three realms: foundation building, entering the Dao, and questioning the Dao.

Therefore, even if the secret arts they possess are further enhanced, their strength will only be elevated within the Foundation Realm or the Dao Entry Realm.

However, Jiang Yun is now, from the blessed land realm, forcefully elevating his realm to the Dao Ling realm, spanning two major realms.

According to the standards of this world, it means that from the Foundation Realm, one has reached the Entry Dao Realm, having crossed a major realm.

This is equally unacceptable to them!

Xia Zhongwu was closest to Jiang Yun, so he felt the changes in Jiang Yun's aura most strongly. This finally caused a hint of astonishment to appear on his face.

"But he immediately regained his composure and coldly said, "Even if you used secret arts to temporarily boost your strength, it would still be impossible for you to be my opponent. I want to see how long this state of yours can last!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Zhongwu pointed his finger at Jiang Yun in the air.

Suddenly, the sea of fire above his head surged again, condensing into nine colossal firebirds, each a hundred zhang in size, swirling in the sky and dancing between heaven and earth.

Looking up, it was as if nine enormous fire clouds had materialized out of thin air in the sky. They illuminated the entire world in a fiery red glow, and with their appearance, the temperature inside the arena surged wildly.

All faces turned pale, and each tribe hurriedly shielded their kin and beast groups with various spells, magical artifacts, and other means.

Some weaker groups, even more hastily, fled to the outside of the arena.

Though they all wanted to stay and watch the battle, their own lives were more precious.

Ginger Cloud, however, stood still, unmoved. He was no stranger to fire; in fact, his familiarity with it far surpassed his understanding of any other power.

Within him, there was not only the solar fire from the sun, but also his own life force fire. Therefore, even though the nine Fire Birds produced extremely high temperatures, they did not have too much of an effect on him.

And the next moment, these nine firebirds raised their heads and let out a long cry in unison, then suddenly flapped their wings and rushed towards Jiang Yun from all nine directions.

Nine hundred-meter-tall firebirds, spreading their wings, instantly merged into a continuous line. In the eyes of everyone present, it seemed as if the entire sky was ignited by flames, then directly pressed towards Jiang Yun.

Even if a normal Dao Spirit Realm cultivator possessed similar strength to Xia Zhongwu, facing such a fierce attack, they would definitely first try to dodge.

However, Jiang Yun didn't even glance at the nine firebirds that blotted out the sky. Instead, his eyes remained coldly fixed on Xia Zhongwu, and he calmly extended a finger, pointing upwards: "Burn Heaven!"

"Boom boom boom!"

A series of dense explosions rang out. The borrowed celestial power within Gingercloud's body, which had been temporarily granted to him, was instantly transformed into flames that erupted from his body madly.

In an instant, another vast ocean of fire formed, no less awe-inspiring than the Fire Sea of Xiazhong Wudongtian.

However, the sea of fire that Jiang Yun displayed was not spread out, but spiraled around his body.

As the nine Firebirds approached him, the inferno suddenly accelerated its rotation and violently surged outwards, colliding with the birds with a deafening roar.

First released on the Traditional Chinese Novel Networkht, slowly descending towards the Jiekong Ding.At this time, Jiang Yun also clearly felt that the loss of blood made him feel weak, so he stopped continuing to draw the Refining Demon Seal.And just as...
