Chapter 796: Chapter 624 Destruction!
The crowd could hardly believe their ears, this bastard, how confident was he to still be urging them to attack together?
But even if Long Yi hadn’t said so, they would have done it anyway, because they all knew that if they didn’t join forces, they really wouldn’t stand a chance.
"Remember our plan!"
"Roar!"
"Go now! This is our chance!"
All twenty-eight people charged toward Long Yi.
Long Yi burst out laughing, and just as everyone thought he would call forth his Crystal Stone armor, he instead headed straight for the person closest to him!
Without his Crystal Stone armor, his speed suddenly exploded to a point where he was almost invisible!
Bang!
With just one punch, a warrior spat out blood and was sent flying. Long Yi raised his hand and launched a Fight Aura spear, which impaled the man’s abdomen as it sped rapidly through the air, carrying him toward the distant spectator seats.
Clang!
A dull sound rang out as the man was actually nailed to the spectator seats, and one unlucky spectator ended up being skewered together with the warrior!
Spectators nearby jumped in fright, then immediately burst into cheers.
Four seconds!
First kill!
A massive timer appeared.
Almost at the moment Long Yi launched his Fight Aura Light Spear, he dashed out. Because at the same time, the spot where he had just landed was bombarded into craters by a flurry of magic and Fight Aura skills.
As Long Yi sprinted, all the warriors aimed ahead of him, anticipating his move. But as Long Yi took a step, he slammed his foot down hard, stopping his terrifying speed in its tracks. Then he coiled his body like a spring, and a pursuing warrior caught sight of Long Yi’s suddenly turned eyes.
"Damn it!"
He had already sensed the danger, but Long Yi had already launched!
Boom!
The solid ground actually cracked under Long Yi’s full leap! Long Yi couldn’t help but admire the solidity of the rocks here—had it been the Human Realm, the ground definitely would have formed a pit.
Bang!
Long Yi’s shoulder collided heavily with the warrior’s stomach. The man felt as though his stomach had nearly evaporated in an instant, the immense pressure leaving him feeling as if he was about to vomit everything in his belly.
Boom!
Long Yi, along with the warrior, crashed into the wall at the edge of the Arena. These walls were specially reinforced, hard to damage by ordinary magic. Or rather, difficult to damage, which meant all the impact from the collision was absorbed by the warrior himself.
With a crack, the warrior felt both his waist and head smashed against the incredibly sturdy wall, his breastbone shattering under the force of that shoulder. Then the next moment, darkness fell before his eyes, and he lost consciousness.
"Ten seconds! Double kill!"
The announcer shouted loudly.
Cheers!
Cheers erupted throughout the venue!
Two people had fallen in the blink of an eye! But Long Yi had no pause, for he already had a notion of these people’s strength in his mind. He was selecting his opponents based on this notion—his plan was to first eliminate those whose strength he was well aware of, leaving the rest he was less familiar with for later.
The battle continued, and the announcer kept loudly counting the stats for Long Yi.
"Triple kill!"
"Quadra kill!"
"Penta kill! Is it a penta kill? Let’s see the medic’s confirmation? Not dead!? That means he lost consciousness! That doesn’t count!"
"What? Another one that’s not dead??"
"So is this a penta kill? Penta kill!"
The announcer’s voice aptly stimulated everyone’s nerves. Every single person focused all their attention on the competition, on Long Yi’s overpowering display.
At this point, two people suddenly ran out of the Arena, fleeing the scene.
Lagera’s eyebrows slightly knitted together, as there had never been anyone escaping so quickly in the previous Slaughter Hell battles. It seemed that the pressure Long Yi put on them was too great. It looked like the rules needed to be changed in the future—in a battle named Slaughter Hell, leaving midway was not a good look.
Enemies fell one by one, either being killed or losing the ability to continue fighting.
As the number of fighters dwindled, Long Yi’s kill count kept climbing.
"Nine kills! Now it’s nine kills, can he make it ten! Can it be a decakill!"
The announcer’s voice was hoarse as he shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Decakill! Decakill!" the audience also shouted.
But as the medic confirmed, the person who had fallen was also not dead.
The audience felt a wave of disappointment.
At this moment, there were three people left in front of Long Yi. Long Yi had killed nine people, severely injured twelve such that they could fight no more, five had fled, and one had self-destructed. These were the results of this Slaughter Hell battle.
It suddenly became quiet in the Arena.
Long Yi stood in the center; three individuals surrounded him from three different directions.
From the beginning to the end, these three hadn’t really made their move, and in the previous battles, they also hadn’t exerted their full strength. Therefore, Long Yi had no idea what their true capabilities were.
"Watching them walk into death, you just waited behind; are you too cowardly, or too confident?" Long Yi asked with a smile.
The three individuals, however, spoke up simultaneously, "Previously, we were just draining your strength. To deal with you, the three of us are more than enough!"
Having said that, the three of them charged together at the same time.
"Trinity!"
Boom!
Three fists struck out at the same time, and an inexplicable force locked Long Yi in place, rendering him immobile!
It was the Power of Rules, the force of the rules!
Boom!
The three fists hit Long Yi’s head simultaneously without any gap. Although Long Yi was confident in the hardness of his head, being beaten like this was not his style.
"It has appeared! The Power of Rules of the Trinity! This technique can completely immobilize the enemy in their tracks! Long Yi is in grave danger! If he can’t break free, then Long Yi can only continuously endure the opponent’s attacks! But as the Power of Rules, how can he break free?"
The host shouted loudly.
The audience also quieted down. They had been cheering for Long Yi, and up to now, Long Yi had always stood as unshakable as the God of War. But now, although he also stood unshakable, it was because of the rules!
The Power of Rules originally came from the gods! Gods used the Power of Rules to create the universe and everything in it. During that process, some creatures, by chance, came to understand the rules and were able to use the Power of Rules. The Power of Rules is entirely separate from one’s own power. Unless it is another person who also understands the Power of Rules, normal rule forces simply cannot be dispelled!
While Long Yi was bound, the three assailants began relentlessly bombarding him with all kinds of Fighting Aura techniques and magic, pouring them out as if they cost nothing. However, they had obviously forgotten one thing: although Long Yi couldn’t move, he hadn’t lost his power!
Hot Crystal Armor burst from the ground, instantly wrapping Long Yi up tightly.
Fighting Aura techniques and magic hammered down on the Crystal Armor. The Crystal shattered, grew back, and shattered and grew back again.
"I’ve got it! Their intentions are clear!" shouted the host loudly.
"Have Long Yi defeat everyone, deplete Long Yi’s energy, observe Long Yi’s fighting style. When only the three of them are left in the arena, they immediately use Trinity to confine Long Yi, then defeat him. This way, the greatest threat is eliminated, and the last victor can only be one of them!"
The host had clearly guessed the trio’s plan.
Suddenly, boos filled the venue.
In the arena, deceit and trickery were matters Long Yi didn’t mind after all. Only the victor has the right to speak. But to the audience, this victory seemed far too disgraceful. Not like Long Yi, who fought from start to finish!
But Long Yi was not without a solution.
After all, the Power of Rules was nothing unfamiliar to him!
The first time Long Yi went to the White Dragon Empire’s library, he had touched the Power of Rules out of curiosity. It was incredibly greedy, devouring all power. Even Long Yi, the Giant, almost died in its grasp. Later, Long Yi nicknamed it the ’Gluttonous Serpent’. Once he was cured, the Gluttonous Serpent never appeared again. Later, when Long Yi helped the Overlord defeat the Scout in the Crystal Demon Plane, the Gluttonous Serpent emerged on its own to help Long Yi dissolve the Scout’s rule-based attack.
And now, Long Yi was attacked by the Power of Rules once again. Without surprise, the Gluttonous Serpent woke up once more!
Golden lightning suddenly spread across Long Yi’s entire body, and in the blink of an eye, the mysterious Power of Rules that had entangled Long Yi was completely devoured!
However, this bit of Power of Rules clearly couldn’t satisfy the Gluttonous Serpent’s appetite; the golden lightning looked somewhat insatiable.
Seeing Long Yi break free from the confinement of the Trinity, the three adversaries panicked. They knew Long Yi was strong; even if they joined forces, they might not be his match. Hence, they had resorted to this strategy. But if even the Trinity couldn’t hold Long Yi, what else could?
"Trinity!"
All three shouted at once, and the Power of Rules surged again, but the golden lightning on Long Yi flashed and vanquished all the rules attacking him.
"Do it again! Keep attacking, don’t stop!"
The three continuously bombarded Long Yi with the Power of Rules, and the Gluttonous Serpent kept devouring, the golden lightning appearing incredibly gleeful!
The Gluttonous Serpent was joyful, but the three were not. The Power of Rules was different from other powers; once consumed, it could not be replenished!
Damn it, what to do now!
The three became frantic, but at this moment, Long Yi didn’t intend to give them time to think.
"Finished? Then it’s my turn."
Long Yi unleashed the Crystal Armor, grinning as he charged out.
"Wait! We surrender!"
The three quickly yelled out.
"Surrender? We are in the midst of the Death Grinder Battle!"
No mercy, no surrender!
"You targeted my head, right? Now, feel my fists!"
The outcome of the subsequent battle was predictable.
"Twelve kills! Long Yi’s twelve kills! He has become our new King of the Arena!"
The host shouted at the top of his lungs.
"King of the Arena!"
"King of the Arena!"
"King of the Arena!"
The audience erupted into fervent cheers, witnessing the rise of the King of the Arena, a miracle!
"No!"
Lagera’s big face appeared once again, letting out a crazed roar.
"No! I absolutely refuse to recognize you as the King of my Arena! You won’t get away with this in my Arena! You’ve ruined everything for me! I will get rid of you! I will send you to a place where you can never be arrogant again! And that is—"
"Slaughter Hell!"
After a brief silence, the audience burst into an incredibly fierce cheer!
Because the name Slaughter Hell represented one of the largest four arenas around! Entering any one of the top four arenas meant your strength had been verified time and again. At least within this Plane, you were now a figure of renown.
"No matter where I go," Long Yi said in a low voice, raising his fist high, then raising his voice sharply, "I will bring destruction!"
"Destruction! Destruction! Destruction!"
All the audience went mad. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please go to Qidian to cast your recommendation votes and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
