Chapter 241 The Chaotic Shaking Blade: The Great Xia High-Rankings Tremble Because of One Person
Jiang Yuan raised his right hand, and the extremely dense dark light condensed into a mark, like a black hole, emitting a dark, viscous, watery aura that seemed to absorb anything that came into contact with it.
Even a mere wisp of dark aura possesses effects such as [Corrosion], [Collapse], [Slow], [Devour], [Absorb], and [Block].
I took a closer look.
Compared to the Dark Throne, which can create a dark space and set rules, the Dark Throne is different.
The [Eternal Night Dark Kingdom], which has been upgraded to a god-level talent, is more comprehensive and its power is more terrifying. The space it creates becomes a true god kingdom, and even kings trapped inside would find it difficult to escape. It no longer needs to set rules, but instead forcibly restricts all abilities except darkness!
Immersed in it, Jiang Yuan is the true Dark King!
You can control everything at will!
"As expected of a god-level dark talent."
Jiang Yuan sighed inwardly.
That's incredibly powerful.
If someone else possessed this level of talent instead of him, even he would feel a bit of a headache.
"Oh, right."
"After defeating the gatekeeper, there's still one [Exclusive Skill Book] left to use..."
Jiang Yuan found the skill book and silently recited "use".
[Ding! You have used an exclusive skill book to obtain the exclusive skill - Chaos Blade]
【Chaos Blade】: Can only be used when wielding a sword or similar weapon. When used, there is a 50% chance to trigger absolute defense, blocking one attack of any kind and reflecting the attack back with 150% power.
Cooldown time: 1 hours.
"It's a defensive skill that can reflect attacks..."
Jiang Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, somewhat surprised.
Any skill involving terms like "absolute," "any," or "any" is ridiculously powerful!
Click to learn immediately.
Then Jiang Yuan closed his eyes and immersed himself in understanding this skill.
Time slips away unnoticed.
The Cave Heaven Thunder Tears, worth hundreds of millions and capable of easily annihilating a Grandmaster's body, were also absorbed by Jiang Yuan without his knowledge.
Once the Immortal Divine Body is fully developed, even if he doesn't reach the King level, he will be able to resist King-level beings without using the Golden Law.
At that time, they will be able to sweep across Blue Star with their dual god-level talents.
……
at the same time.
After taking a bath, Yuanling returned to her room, took out a mysterious jade talisman, and teleported to a mysterious small world that only the Ten Ministers could enter.
There was only one person at the golden round table shrouded in mist.
He sat at the head of the table, his figure obscured by the clouds and mist, looking at an ancient book in his hand.
As the spirit appeared at the round table.
He looked up and smiled, "It's you."
"Why are you here so late? Is something the matter?"
The voice is that of a young person.
Yuan Ling nodded respectfully and said, "Elder Zhou, I have something to discuss. I would be grateful if you could invite them over."
"What does it relate to?"
"The boy who saved Nanjiang City has returned."
Old Zhou paused, glancing at Yuan Ling with some surprise, seeing that she didn't seem to be lying.
Old Zhou smiled and said, "Then it is indeed necessary to discuss this."
After he finished speaking, he pointed his finger, and a golden bell phantom appeared in the sky of this small world, vibrating and resonating. The loud bell sound spread like ripples, stirring up the sea of clouds.
Old Zhou said, "Come here for a moment, everyone. We have something to discuss."
Throughout the Great Xia, members of the Ten Ministers, who were either resting or doing their own things, all frowned and put down what they were doing when they heard the bell and his voice.
Beside the round table, one after another, illusory figures appeared, like flickering candles.
Nine of the ten ministers came in total.
"Grandpa, why did you call us here so late?" A petite figure with pigtails asked, yawning as she slumped on the table. "I'm so sleepy."
The muscular, burly man crossed his arms and said in a deep voice, "I still need to inspect the fortifications of the border cities of Xichui. Speak quickly if you have something to say, or shut up."
Old Zhou laughed and said, "It's not me who has something to say."
He looked at Yuan Ling: "Alright, the person has arrived, you can speak now."
All eyes turned to Yuan Ling at once.
Yuan Ling waved his hand, and the bounty poster from the Cherry Blossom Country appeared above the round table.
"You've all seen this, right?"
A young man, arms behind his head and leaning back in his chair, said languidly, "I saw it. What's wrong?"
Another round, plump figure said, "Just for him? It's rare to be wanted by an entire country, but it's not unheard of. He's only a seventh-tier cultivator. Even if he ran to our Great Xia, we could just let the Patrol Division handle it. Whether they recruit him or kill him, why call us here in the middle of the night? Don't you think so?"
He was talking to the dark figure next to him.
The black figure remained silent.
He is the Chief Inspector of the Great Xia Patrol Division, in charge of the strongest Zero Team.
Lu Beiyuan was once a member of Team Zero.
"I feel like I've seen Shirakawa Gen's appearance somewhere before."
A figure, radiating sword energy and toying with a small sword between his fingers, spoke.
"Could he be that boy from Nanjiang City?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
Yuan Ling nodded. "That's right."
"You mean, the boy who made a pact with the Lord of the Underworld has returned alive from the Abyss?" an elderly figure asked in astonishment. "Are you sure?"
Yuan Ling nodded: "I'm certain that he is Jiang Yuan."
"Why?" the round, chubby figure asked.
"I've already seen him. He's in the capital now, at my residence," Yuan Ling said.
Everyone fell silent.
Yuanling would never lie about something like this.
That's what I mean.
This is real!
That Shirakawa Gen is Jiang Yuan!
but……
Why?
No one understood the horror and danger of the abyss better than them, which is why they found it incredible that the boy had returned alive.
How did he do that?
In a short time.
Shock, confusion, astonishment, curiosity, and incomprehension enveloped the high-ranking officials of Daxia present.
Old Zhou looked at Yuan Ling and said, "Explain in more detail."
Yuan Ling nodded and recounted Jiang Yuan's return to Haicheng, the resulting conflict, and his actions in the Sakura Kingdom.
The more they listened, the more shocked and incredulous they became.
Listen to what comes after.
The burly man couldn't help but stand up, saying in disbelief:
"You're saying that he, a seventh-level martial artist, not only suppressed multiple quasi-kings, but also fought against Xiao Chenzhou?! Are you kidding me?!"
As a general in the army, he was very familiar with the power of the King of Zhenhai and had great respect for him.
Hearing this news now feels like my worldview has collapsed.
The others also looked solemn.
The languid young man sat up straight and slowly said, "Yuan Ling, you can take responsibility for what you said, can't you?"
The woman with pigtails sat up straight, and the squinty-eyed swordsman, who hadn't opened his eyes for a long time, also opened them.
"If I were lying even slightly, I could be relieved of my position as one of the Ten Ministers."
Yuan Ling said, "To be honest, I'm not confident I can beat him either."
The matter has been discussed to this extent.
Even if it was hard to believe, people had no choice but to believe it.
"It's only been half a year since he became the martial arts champion..." someone said in a low voice.
"A seventeen-year-old boy, whose combat power rivals that of a quasi-king?"
"Unbelievable."
"Inconceivable."
"Is there a possibility that I could be possessed and brought here by something from the abyss?"
"This must be taken seriously and thoroughly examined; there can be no carelessness whatsoever."
The crowd was buzzing with discussion.
Yuan Ling's eyes flashed with disdain.
The first reaction to a hero who has escaped death and returned is not joy and excitement, but suspicion and distrust.
This reminds me of what happened in Nanjiang City back then.
If it weren't for the Ten Ministers' vote to abandon Nanjiang City, things wouldn't have come to this.
In their eyes, millions of ordinary people are really just numbers.
Jiang Yuan's subsequent actions caused the Ten Ministers Association to lose face and its credibility to decline.
Several of the Ten Ministers, though they didn't say it aloud, secretly resented Jiang Yuan's meddling and foolishness.
The so-called Ten Ministers were, in essence, nothing more than representatives selected by various forces to form a power structure.
Power is accompanied by poison.
Everyone has their own agenda; how many are truly wholeheartedly considering the well-being of the Great Xia?
Yuan Ling felt inexplicably tired.
"anyway."
Old Zhou closed the ancient book and said, "The return of such a genius is not necessarily a bad thing for our Great Xia. At least the outcome of the national war is no longer in doubt."
Everyone fell silent.
indeed so.
In today's world, geniuses from various countries whose combat strength is comparable to a seventh-tier grandmaster are considered top-tier prodigies.
To rival a quasi-king, or even a king?
Are you kidding me!
Sending him to participate in the national war is like throwing a Godzilla into a chicken coop.
It was destined to be a foregone conclusion.
But this also means that one of the five members of the national war team will be squeezed out.
They might be the pride of various powerful families, which could inevitably harm the interests of some of the Ten Ministers who come from wealthy and powerful clans.
But there's nothing to say at this moment.
Old Zhou looked at Yuan Ling and said, "As for the national war, ask him what he thinks beforehand, and don't force him. As long as he's willing to participate, you can ask for any conditions you want."
Yuan Ling nodded.
The expressions of the others changed slightly.
"How should we explain this to Japan?" the round, plump figure asked.
Old Zhou glanced at them and said, "Heh, since when has our Great Xia had to be beholden to them?"
The plump figure in charge of managing the finances of the Great Xia Dynasty paused for a moment.
Old Zhou looked at Yuan Ling: "After all, he is the owner of the Purple Dragon Medal. Whatever his requests are, as long as they are not too excessive, we will grant them."
"I see."
