Realm-Hopping Martial Master-Chapter 713 - 398: Slaughter! Gains! Fourth Floor! Official Trial! (Part 2)

It's still Jiang Shu from two years ago; even they don't know what Jiang Shu has realized during his closed-door cultivation in these two years, whether his understanding of cultivation has reached a higher level.

Zhong Jinghuan?

Although he is considered a top genius among the Six Great Forces, he is only second-rate among the geniuses in Jiuyu Commerce Alliance!

At most, he can only break into the Sixth Floor.

How can he compare to Jiang Shu? 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"How many moves?"

A simple two-word question, but Tenth Rank Experts all understand what it implies.

"It depends on Jiang Shu's understanding of space over the past two years. Based on my estimation, he should be able to slay Zhong Jinghuan within ten moves. One move to defend, one to dodge, one to shift attack and defense, and the remaining seven moves to directly slay Zhong Jinghuan."

"This arrow, if it were aimed at Jiang Shu two years ago, he absolutely couldn't evade it, only withstand it. But enduring it isn't something Zhong Jinghuan could use to kill him; Zhong Jinghuan and Tang Yuan may seem like geniuses, but they've almost exhausted their potential. They've cultivated to this realm, and at most can reach the Tenth Rank, similar to us, incapable of progressing to the Forget Realm, unable to grasp the intricacies of space. Of the three, only Yu Heng has a chance."

"Normally, that's how it goes. Watch Jiang Shu; the battle has begun."

The exchange happened in an instant.

However, neither the Ninth Rank cultivators inside the Third Floor of the Genius Trial Tower nor the Tenth Rank experts outside the tower expected this arrow to be met like this.

The space around Jiang Shu rapidly fluctuated, and with just one step forward, he disappeared from the battlefield!

In an instant, he was tens of thousands of miles away!

One must know, for Ninth Rank cultivators, even those skilled in spiritual power and cultivating the Spiritual Path of the Forget Self Realm, the detectable range is only tens of thousands of miles!

In just a brief moment, Jiang Shu appeared as if he evaporated from the earth, leaving the arrow meant for his life soaring into the air, piercing the ground instead.

"Boom!"

The ground shook, and a massive trench suddenly appeared.

At the same time, behind Zhong Jinghuan, a voice sounded softly: "Are you looking for me?"

A massive axe blade descended from the sky.

"Boom!"

In Zhong Jinghuan's eyes appeared an indescribable fear and shock; he couldn't believe Jiang Shu had appeared behind him in such a manner, with a definitive killing blow from the outset!

This kind of space teleportation, is it truly Jiang Shu?

Suddenly overwhelmed by regret like a tidal wave, Zhong Jinghuan wanted to resist. But how could he withstand Jiang Shu's all-out explosive force!

Heavenly Rank Divine Power, Panwu Heaven Opening Axe!

Heavenly Rank Divine Power, One Power Innate Chaotic Qi!

Heavenly Rank Divine Power, Immortal Acupoint Technique!

Despite Jiang Shu's two years of comprehending "Cosmic Light Crossing," the Great Dao often connects concepts. Not to mention, this time he's chosen to understand the Space Dao, where space reigns supreme.

Some divine skills naturally increased in proficiency as well.

"No!"

The axe blade shone like daylight, its sudden bright light annihilating everything.

The entire mountain was completely split apart. If Zhong Jinghuan's arrow made the earth tremble and formed a trench,

then Jiang Shu's axe almost obliterated the battlefield tens of thousands of miles wide!

The mountain range vanished, and the massive residual shockwaves spread out, shaking the entire battlefield. The earth cracked, and areas once thriving with trees were now lifeless, not a single blade of grass remaining.

One axe.

The earth crumbled, and people died!

Zhong Jinghuan indeed became more powerful than six years ago, showing progress in the Genius Trial Tower.

But his progress, how can it compare to Jiang Shu's!

"With a plan against the unprepared?"

The Kunpeng Swallowing Technique completely consumed Zhong Jinghuan's soul, and Jiang Shu, who had exhausted more than ninety percent of his spiritual power, instantly recovered to forty or fifty percent. He glanced around with piercing eyes.

He never had any conflict with Zhong Jinghuan.

The only probable reason for Zhong Jinghuan's attempt to kill him was the inheritance of the Void Venerable in the Void Realm.

Perhaps, Zhong Jinghuan thought of something?

Jiang Shu's expression remained unchanged, calm and unruffled, revealing nothing as he took Zhong Jinghuan's longbow and stepped towards the Barrier.

This longbow was useless to him, but in the Cang Mang Domain, his junior disciples needed it.

Unmatched silhouette.

His figure merged, his thoughts gradually unified.

Since he's already at the Genius Trial Tower, he must set everything aside!

Now he only needs to do one thing: officially challenge from the Fourth Floor, breaking through beyond the Sixth Floor!

Reach the Seventh Floor, and even the Eighth Floor!

As long as he displays enough strength, even if his secret in the Void Realm is truly discovered by the Eleventh Rank Venerables of the Six Great Forces, so what?

Jiuyu Commerce Alliance boasts nine Eleventh Rank Venerables!

And each one is more powerful! Two of them are even in the Late Stage Forget Realm!

Dispatching one could suppress the Six Great Forces!

With unwavering resolve, Jiang Shu adjusted his breath, his three Holy Embryos constantly absorbed the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, turning it into surging spiritual power, though that previous battle, that moment, employed all his might.

Even though he consumed Zhong Jinghuan, he only regained about thirty percent of his spiritual power.

Now that he's left the Third Floor and is about to begin the real genius trial, battling two Ninth Rank Peak Star Beasts.

But he remained unfazed.

His momentum surged, his battle spirit unmatched, his hair flowing.

The Fourth Floor, pitch black, even at his realm, seemed impossible to discern his surroundings, only sensing a stench as if he was not in a new world, but... inside a Star Beast!

...

Every genius entering the Fourth Floor faces a different situation.

It's a test of their ability to adapt to unexpected circumstances. The battles here are recorded, evaluating not just their scores but also their performance, which might earn additional points.

Some geniuses who are stuck at the Sixth Floor might, because of outstanding performance, be noticed by a Forget Realm Venerable, having the chance to train in the Eternal Tower.

Genius Trial Tower.

Third Floor.

The other cultivators naturally knew nothing of Jiang Shu's situation on the Fourth Floor; as the wind blew through, nobody uttered a sound.

They all knew Zhong Jinghuan, were aware of his strength, even when competing against Jiuyu Alliance's geniuses, if outmatched, he'd still escape.

Such talent, breaking through to the Sixth Floor should be no problem.

Yet such a genius couldn't withstand even two moves before Jiang Shu!

No, it was just one move!

The previous move was merely dodging Zhong Jinghuan's arrow!

"That... seems like 'Cosmic Light Crossing'... I remember that's Yuan Zhou's secret technique. Jiang Shu killing Yuan Zhou up to now has been about two years, two years, to cultivate a space secret technique to such a realm? What... what kind of talent is this!"

One knowledgeable Ninth Rank cultivator spoke tentatively, revealing the secret behind Jiang Shu's evasive move.

Though Yuan Zhou couldn't truly be considered a genius, he possessed some fame in the Star Ruins Realm's outer region for cultivating this 'Cosmic Light Crossing,' which had strong escape capabilities and saved him many times.

But keep in mind, Yuan Zhou spent three hundred years cultivating this secret technique.

And Jiang Shu? Only two years!

Judging by that instant earlier, both seemed to cultivate to the same realm!

Although many felt they had overestimated Jiang Shu's realm, his combat power, his talent.

But now, everyone fell silent.

Some were shocked by Jiang Shu's unparalleled talent.

Some were evaluating whether they could withstand Jiang Shu's axe themselves.

Some regretted missing the opportunity to establish a relationship with Jiang Shu earlier.

Everyone understood, with the combat power and talent Jiang Shu exhibited now, once he leaves the Genius Trial Tower, he will inevitably join the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance, his name resounding throughout the Star Ruins Realm's outer region.

Even before, among those on the Third Floor manipulating space, with an understanding of Space Origin far beyond others at that realm, Yu Heng seemed slightly inferior to Jiang Shu!
