Chapter 139 Battle against Rong Jun
"After the initial formation of the Consciousness Secret Technique, the annihilation of so many geniuses in one fell swoop actually boosted my True Intent tempering progress to 32 in one go."
%?
"I haven't even faced life-or-death situations yet, and I've already improved so rapidly?"
Ye Yang pondered the subtle changes in his true meaning.
"The Battle of the Ultimate Geniuses of the Entire Universe is a gathering place for countless geniuses, a convergence of fortunes and glories. In a sense, it is the place where the fortunes of all nations in the universe and even all of humanity converge during this period."
"And because they are all geniuses, like the rising sun at eight or nine in the morning, their fortune is also vibrant and full of boundless potential—"
"By defeating numerous geniuses, I will naturally seize a portion of their 'luck.' And upon reaching the top, I will be surrounded by the expectations of the masses."
There is also the saying that one is blessed with good fortune. Of course, this is just a metaphorical way of saying it. Ye Yang knows that there is no explicit "law of fortune" in the world of Devouring.
He understood that the changes in his true intention were largely due to defeating others and overpowering their consciousness and will. His "true intention" then stepped on these losers, climbing to higher levels step by step.
If we were to use a vivid metaphor, it would be like building a monument to the souls of the dead.
Every enemy he defeated left a mark on this monument, becoming a brick in its foundation.
"If that's the case, doesn't that mean I've become a Soul-Eating Demon?" Shaking his head, Ye Yang banished these chaotic thoughts from his mind and began to explore his spiritual world more deeply.
Until it is confirmed that the "traces" of these losers will not affect him, but only prove that he still remembers, "Ah, there was such a person I defeated."
Ye Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Evening of July 22, 2066, China time.
In the virtual universe, Ye Yang, Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, and more than twenty others gathered together to check the details of the arena battle.
"Ten thousand people vying for 900 spots, how do they compete?"
"It seems to be automatically assigned by the virtual universe system, then the two teams compete against each other, and the winners advance."
People were discussing it.
"The list is here." Ye Yang waved his hand, projecting a densely packed list.
"Oh! Second brother, you're here. Your first opponent is this 'Chunxi.' If you win, you'll face the winner of the group next to you," Thor said, pointing to Hong's name.
Hong glanced over and frowned: "Chunxi? There is such a person in the information. Among those who have not crossed the threshold of the Origin Law, she is one of the strongest. I am not very confident in fighting her. The odds of winning are probably between 30 and 70, with me at 30% and her at 70%."
"Where is Luo Feng?"
"Dad's here!" Luo Hai said, pointing to Luo Feng's name on the list. "First, play against this 'Cevaro,' then the group over there..."
"The battles will be one-on-one, with the winners advancing. Out of 10,000 people, 5000 will advance to the next round, then 2500 to 1250, and finally 625. There will be a total of four battles," Ye Yang said.
Luo Feng added, "The losers will enter the 'Losers' Group.' After deducting the final 625 winners from the 900 available spots, there will be 275 spots remaining."
"These 275 spots will be decided by a long and brutal series of battles among the 9375 members of the 'losers' group."
"A brutal cycle of reincarnation?"
"How cruel?"
"There are 9375 people in the defeated group. Each person will have to fight one-on-one with the other 9374 people. A win earns one point, while a draw or loss earns no points. The final ranking is based on the total points, and the top 275 will get the spots," Ye Yang replied.
"what?"
"My God, 9374 battles, that's outrageous."
Everyone was amazed.
The cycle battle involves each person fighting 10 battles per day, and will last for nearly three years.
"Brother, at this rate, you'll be facing that 'savage' Rong Jun in the fourth match!"
Thor discovered that Ye Yang's normal level route and "Wild Man" Rong Jun's normal level route actually overlapped in the fourth game, and couldn't help but shout.
"Hmm, there are nearly a hundred people like this, facing off between two powerful beings of the Law. It must have been deliberately arranged by the Virtual Universe Company to allow us to clash with each other and better test our strength," Ye Yang said.
He pointed to Luo Feng's possible opponent in the fourth match and said, "Luo Feng's opponent is also a Law Powerhouse who has performed exceptionally well in the arena battles."
"Whether it's a duel between strong individuals or a long cycle of reincarnation, both have extremely strong training effects. My plan is to defeat the savage Rong Jun, but not kill him; instead, I will commit suicide to enter the cycle of reincarnation."
Upon hearing Ye Yang's words, the other Earthlings were immediately surprised: "Big Brother/Chairman, what is the reason for this?"
Ye Yang smiled and said:
"Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles."
"The 9374 opponents in the Reincarnation Battle come from different star regions, galaxies, and planets, and their cultivation traditions, customs and cultures, talents, personalities, ideals, and life experiences are all different."
"I'm not trying to simply defeat them—that would be too easy. I just want to have a 'spiritual connection' with them, to witness their lives and ideals."
Thor couldn't help but laugh: "Big brother, not everyone can withstand that 'collision.' I heard that more than half of the 99 geniuses in Group 482 that you wiped out suffered from 'Grim Reaper phobia' because of it."
"Upon hearing the words 'Grim Reaper' or 'Ye Yang,' he would immediately tremble like a leaf, turn pale, and be unable to hold his weapon steady."
"There's another one with the most severe symptoms, called 'Shadya,' who can no longer lift a weapon and has simply given up and gone home to farm."
Everyone laughed.
In the ensuing one-on-one duels, Hong narrowly defeated his opponent "Chunxi" in the first match, but was defeated in the second.
They've been moved to the losers' group.
Luo Feng and Ye Yang, on the other hand, won one battle after another.
One who uses telekinetic weapons, the Sky Shuttle and the Divine Weapon, is extremely yang and strong, with an incomparably domineering attack that sweeps away all opponents!
The other is a strange and terrifying method. He stands on the field with a smile, and with just a glance, his opponent falls to the ground and dies.
Afterwards, news broke that another person had developed "death phobia".
The two won all three of their matches, making the audiences in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region and the Cui Lang Star Region extremely proud, and they were the talk of the town everywhere.
"Next up, it's the Savage Rong Jun."
Ye Yang took this opponent very seriously, after all, he was a character who left a lot of ink in the original work, and his potential and strength were extraordinary.
"My current consciousness manipulation technique is still in its early stages, based on 'True Intent Domination,' and is far from perfect, with many uncontrollable aspects."
"To avoid injuring ourselves before we can harm others, this battle must be fought slowly, employing both orthodox and unorthodox tactics. We should first use close-quarters combat tactics with soul-interference capabilities to suppress Rong Jun's momentum before launching a decisive blow!"
Ye Yang was quite confident in his close-combat skills.
Reaching the third level of "Vacuum Illusion Body" allows one to easily unleash the first move of Void Return to Eternity, "Void Shaking," which is comparable to the first level of the Divine Weapon, "Illusion Sword Style." Moreover, the arm armor and combat boots are used simultaneously, complementing each other.
