Chapter 489: Chapter 327: The Final Day, Chen Ze Proving Dao! [Vote for monthly tickets!]
Only Yan Chuan knew that this was merely an illusion created by using his ’Experience’. The so-called ’resonance’ was just Him spending 1,000 Experience to make Ying He enter an ’Absolute Focus’ state, enabling him to better comprehend the [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map].
That’s all!
However, even the Innate Grandmasters ranked at the top of the "Heavenly List" had to spend at least three years to comprehend a First-grade Divine Skill from the [Misty Rain Stele]. For a junior like Ying He, what use is there in a mere two hours of comprehension time, even with ’Absolute Focus’?
Could it be that they truly believe that ’two eights make sixteen’, and ’men and women’ is the so-called ’resonance’ pattern, the ’comprehension’ code of the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele]?
Fake!
All fake!
Yan Chuan knew best.
He knew that even if someone really comprehended something from the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele], it wouldn’t be Sun Gui Fen, Zhang Qin, or Ying He. Instead, it would more likely be Chen Ze—
"You all can only enjoy ’Absolute Focus’ for up to two hours."
"But my junior brother, during these six days, has been in an ’Absolute Focus’ state for almost four full days, almost forty-eight hours, constantly and without distractions comprehending the [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map]!"
"If there’s any gain, it should be my junior brother."
Yan Chuan looked at Chen Ze, who stood in front of the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele], sometimes standing silently, sometimes nodding, sometimes touching, and sometimes circling the stele to observe carefully.
Immersed within.
Absolutely focused.
These six days, aside from using ’Experience’ on Sun Gui Fen, Zhang Qin, Ying He, and others, allowing them to comprehend for an additional two hours or sometimes just for an instant on stage, the rest of the time he spent all of the ’Experience’ on Chen Ze.
Yan Chuan had the ’Purple Mist Palace’, and was fixated on the First Tier Arena Master Award, constantly guarding the arena with Wang Zhengyi, unable to spare any attention for the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele].
But he was tempted too!
The Emperor Yan’s words were enchanting, with every top-notch Innate Grandmaster embracing the [Misty Rain Stele] for at least three years of contemplation, proving its preciousness, concealing countless secrets and rewards within.
Yan Chuan resisted temptation, not daring to comprehend lest he gets carried away and ultimately fails, losing the cooked King City, he’d cry to death.
Yan Chuan couldn’t.
Neither could Wang Zhengyi.
But Chen Ze could—
"Absolute Focus!"
"Fully immersed in the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele], having undergone intermittent days and six or seven days, perhaps my junior brother will gain a little, making it not a wasted opportunity."
Yan Chuan supported Chen Ze, harboring a small hope in his heart—
What if!
What if!
What if Chen Ze, under the cheating of ’Absolute Focus’, truly wholeheartedly comprehended the ultimate secret of the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] and became an immortal on the spot?
People!
One should always have dreams, what if they come true!
What if Chen Ze really comprehended it and really became immortal—
"One man’s success!"
"Rise to the top!"
With Yan Chuan and Chen Ze’s close relationship, benefits would absolutely abound.
Of course.
All fantasy.
Yan Chuan’s heart simply wished for Chen Ze to be good, not thinking much more, just hoping Chen Ze could achieve a small gain in the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] through ’Absolute Focus’, be it in Martial Arts Accomplishment or Inner Strength Cultivation, that would be sufficient.
Nothing else sought.
Just a joke.
...
"Painting Technique."
"Scenery."
"Impression."
At the Hai Character Arena, Ying He observed the [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map], isolating from external distractions, immersed within, attempting to analyze and comprehend from various angles, but the more immersed, the more analysis, the more comprehension, the more this [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map] seemed profound, with countless praise-worthy and absolute elements, whether from ’Painting Technique’, ’Scenery’, or ’Layout’, ’Impression’.
Too many too many!
Truly abundant!
Ying He was immersed, unaware of the passage of time, yet before she could thoroughly understand the ’Painting Technique’—
"Swoosh!"
An abrupt roar forced her out of the ’Resonance State’, falling from the mysterious realm.
Chaos reemerged.
It turned out—
"Was it already two hours so quickly?"
Ying He felt a pang of loss, glanced at the [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map] once more, reluctant to leave, but time was up, she must step down.
The crowd observed, seeing Ying He’s waking expression, seeing her demeanor as she stepped down, they knew—
"Ying He Resonated!"
"Nothing gained!"
...
The last day of the Sword Discussion.
Some immersed in observing and comprehending the [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map] or other eleven [Misty Rain Maps], others seized the final time, sprinting for the last stage—
"Victory!"
"Arena Master!"
"Twelve Strong!"
Some pursued more ’Victories’, wanting to elevate their ’Victory Award’ to a higher tier in the last day, even one level would suffice.
Some competed for Arena Master, not aiming at accumulating anymore, but if luck was on their side, by seizing the arena at Sword Discussion’s end and holding it, the ’Twelve Strong’ might be achieved.
The last day.
Filled with excitement.
Ban Xianfu, Luo Qi, Ying Jifeng, Peng Fannian, Situ Fei, Lu Yuru, Wei Lingshan, Ding Xiang, Ying He, Shi Mingzhu, Shen Xia, Jing Bao, Tan Dou, Gongyang Yu (Binding Rope), Chai Hongshun, Cai Ru’an (Five-Colored Stone), Ma Hongniang (White Bone Banner), Zhang Qin, Hu Fenglan, Liu Xin (Chasing God Blade), Gao Changyi, Guo Xi (Golden Stick),...
Peak masters on the last day, traversed major arenas, commencing the final ’Twelve Strong’ contest.
One finishes singing, another takes the stage!
Under the dual influence of ’Evil Qi’ and ’Demon Barrier’, and the rules of ’Forbidden Treasure, Absolute Weapons’, even peak experts, even those called absolute masters, lacked an absolute advantage, from one battle to two, their sharpness may suddenly diminish, but after three or five battles, their strength would falter, hard to endure.
