Chapter 547: Chapter 354: 5 People! High-Level Game! [Requesting Monthly Pass!]_2
Yan Chuan was curious!
Yan Chuan was excited!
Ma Hongniang!
Unique blessings!
This is much better than Ding Xiang and Ban Xianfu.
"It’s her!"
Yan Chuan quickly made a decision, the fifth team member, no more suspense.
Next.
There were only two problems left —
One is that Yan Chuan, Wang Ge, and Fu Yunzhan are all below 700 points.
The second one —
"Vajra Unbreakable Body Divine Skill!"
"It’s not developed yet!"
...
[Task Four]
[Research Project Name: Vajra Unbreakable Body Divine Skill (Difficulty: Geng★★★)]
[Inspiration: 0]
[Completing the task grants ’Experience +150,000’, ’Spiritual +150,000’.]
...
Once the members are confirmed —
No time to lose!
’Mo Yin Continent’s Royal City Competition’ first ten-day tournament registration deadline is October 20, leaving only a month, not much time for Yan Chuan and others.
After preliminarily confirming the team members, Yan Chuan temporarily set aside the operations on the Red Moon City’s side and invested all the Essence Stones into Heavenly Ladder City’s point rush.
Yan Chuan’s own strength was here; reaching beyond 600 ladder points made further progress hard.
Even after creating "Nine Yang Divine Skill," becoming Postnatal Eleventh Layer, compared to the general Postnatal Peak after 600 points, Yan Chuan’s cultivation still lacked a bit.
As for Absolute Skill attainment —
The deepest Yan Chuan currently cultivated was the "Ghost Prison Yin Wind Roar," only at the Late Stage of the Sixth Realm, a level that’s very common in the six hundred plus Heavenly Ladder Battles, among which are many masters with Sixth Realm Peak Absolute Skill or even Seventh Realm Absolute Skills.
In terms of depth in Absolute Skill, Yan Chuan was mediocre.
His only advantage was in the breadth of Absolute Skills —
Inner Strength!
Qinggong!
Fist and Feet!
Swordsmanship!
Qimen!
Yan Chuan had almost no weaknesses.
Among them, especially "Wave Riding Micro Steps," allowed Yan Chuan to thrive in Thousand-Person Battles, maxing out Evasion, providing maximum protection for survival. Coupled with "Innate Skill" and "Yijinjing" underpinning "Nine Yang Divine Skill," Yan Chuan had strong self-defense when dealing with ambushes and Poison Skills.
Yan Chuan fully focused on gaining points, only participated in Thousand-Person Battles!
As the ladder points increased, the quality of Thousand-Person Battles became higher, opponents stronger, and Yan Chuan’s martial arts lecture and "Mutual Teaching and Learning" feedback became stronger.
Day and night!
Yan Chuan immersed himself in Heavenly Ladder City, continuously participating in one Thousand-Person Battle after another, sometimes gaining a lot of points, sometimes a few, occasionally having bad luck and losing points instantly, but overall still gaining points, ladder points steadily increasing —
601!
602!
603!
Day after day, steadily approaching 700 points.
As Yan Chuan’s ladder points increased, he encountered more familiar faces in Thousand-Person Battles, and by ’familiar’, it didn’t refer to Wang Zhengyi, Wang Ge, and others, but opponents Yan Chuan met multiple times in Heavenly Ladder Battles and Thousand-Person Battles.
For example.
In this round, Yan Chuan encountered the Poison Fairy ’Hua Lei,’ someone he first met in his fourth Thousand-Person Battle shortly after entering Heavenly Ladder City, and this wasn’t the second meeting but the fourth after encountering her twice before after the first.
An old acquaintance!
...
[Code: Hua Lei]
[Ladder: 796]
[Rounds: 62]
...
When they first met in mid-July, Hua Lei was a newcomer just starting in Heavenly Ladder City, having played only five or six rounds.
Over two months later, she had become quite experienced, with ladder points close to 800.
She was a master!
In the alley.
Hua Lei was on full alert. Although strong, in these high-end games, there were still many who troubled her, some even posed a deadly threat, for example —
"Bao Xiang!"
"Dan Yong!"
"Sheng Di!"
"Jinpeng!"
"Chao Yundu!"
While moving towards the safe zone, Hua Lei remained vigilant and frequently checked the real-time Kill Leaderboard, focusing on the top ranks. One by one, she opened and examined them closely; all had ladder points above 800, all were masters and formidable opponents.
She constantly opened it, familiar with many names.
Occasionally, a relatively unfamiliar name appeared at the top, seeming abrupt and worth noting.
For example —
[Code: South Sea Crocodile God]
[Ladder: 693]
[Rounds: 37]
...
"South Sea Crocodile God."
Hua Lei slightly raised her eyebrows; she had some impression of this person, though not deep. After recalling carefully, she remembered: "So it’s him!"
About seven or eight days ago, Hua Lei happened to encounter the ’South Sea Crocodile God’ in the same spawn point at the start of a new round. Hua Lei immediately used her Poison Skill "Divine Search Finger," hoping to catch him off guard and defeat in one move.
The skill was indeed powerful, incorporating a unique ’searching god pollen’ in her fingertips, mixed with "Divine Search Finger’s" Inner Strength, creating a highly toxic substance. It needed only to target any of the opponent’s five senses to render them unconscious. Without rescue within four hours, death would ensue. Once poisoned in battle, survival was impossible.
Once the skill was activated!
It often succeeded in one strike!
But that time, with the South Sea Crocodile God, it failed. Instead of succumbing to the "Divine Search Finger," he feigned weakness, and when she pursued, he roared and followed with a Stabbing Sword —
Startling Hua Lei and nearly causing her demise.
Fortunately, aside from the vicious "Divine Search Finger," she mastered "Yao Xuan Nine Heavens," a movement technique focusing energy on the crown, dispersing qi throughout the body, allowing elastic and graceful movements, rising, falling, opening, folding, stretching, and retracting freely. It’s first-rate movement technique.
Using this technique, Hua Lei dodged the sword.
The failed attempt left an impression on her, though she found the ’South Sea Crocodile God’ name still somewhat unfamiliar until this recollection.
"He either saw me use ’Divine Search Finger’ on others, or was a prior victim himself."
Hua Lei leaned toward the first explanation.
Because, if the ’South Sea Crocodile God’ had been hit by it before, there was no reason for him to be unaffected last time.
"This person—"
Hua Lei remembered more about the ’South Sea Crocodile God,’ got more impressions, recalling how he avoided her after narrowly escaping the "Divine Search Finger" at the start, yet always lingered, commenting and analyzing her "Divine Search Finger" and "Yao Xuan Nine Heavens," trying to expose everything about her.
It was truly annoying.
But she never expected to see him again today!
...
"Hua Lei again!"
Yan Chuan found it odd, yet joyful.
This was his fourth encounter with Hua Lei, the first where he was instantly killed, the second without direct confrontation, resolved by other masters, and in the last meeting, he survived Hua Lei’s Poison Skill thanks to "Nine Yang Divine Skill."
That time, Yan Chuan purposely tracked Hua Lei, discussing her Poison Skill and movement technique, which Hua Lei thought annoying from the ’South Sea Crocodile God,’ not knowing that through continuous analysis and "Mutual Teaching and Learning" feedback, Yan Chuan was further understanding her "Divine Search Finger" and "Yao Xuan Nine Heavens."
Only regretting the short duration, unable to understand fully.
But this time.
In this round.
"Divine Search Finger!"
"Yao Xuan Nine Heavens!"
"This time must fully comprehend!"
Yan Chuan was delighted, immediately mobilized, focusing on tracking Hua Lei while eliminating opponents.
However, the more he chased, the less he found, unable to see her.
Until Yan Chuan eliminated over thirty people, after the second shrinking circle, finally, Yan Chuan spotted Hua Lei.
Or more precisely, Hua Lei heard Yan Chuan loudly giving a martial arts lecture and came pursuing the sound!
