Chapter 495: I’m Not Trapped In Here With You
Swoosh! Jiang Ye transformed into a streak of flowing light and plunged directly into the Palm World.
“He’s in!”
“Excellent! Jiang Ye has been suppressed.”
“Is this Chu Jingye’s true power? It’s terrifying.”
Li Zihuang and the others watched the scene unfold, their reactions varied: some showed elation, others wore solemn expressions.
In their eyes, Jiang Ye’s defeat was now inevitable, having been trapped within Chu Jingye’s Palm World.
Yet Chu Jingye’s overwhelming power also left them deeply shaken.
“Jiang Ye!” Chen Zilu’s face paled completely.
She never imagined Jiang Ye would be sucked into the Palm World.
At that moment, Chu Jingye roared, “Suppress!” Veins bulged on his forehead as he exerted his full power.
A buzz resonated as layers of light erupted from Chu Jingye’s Palm World, struggling to resist something with visible strain.
“What’s happening?”
“Could it be that Chu Jingye’s Palm World can’t suppress Jiang Ye?”
“Impossible!” The crowd stared intently ahead, their faces etched with anxiety.
Meanwhile, within Chu Jingye’s Palm World, Jiang Ye’s figure materialized. He glanced around, finding himself in a hazy realm where faint phantom shadows of mountains and rivers flickered in the distance.
“Indeed, it’s a world in its prototype stage,” Jiang Ye observed. “However, it possesses only the basic framework, lacking the vital mysteries of heaven and earth.” He sensed the world’s essence, noting, “It’s as if the world is veiled, giving it an unreal quality.”
With his current level of insight, Jiang Ye instantly detected numerous flaws in this nascent world.
However, recognizing these flaws was one thing; breaking through them was another matter entirely.
At that moment, a vast torrent of light converged, forming a boundless sea of fire. The fiery ocean surged and coalesced into an enormous crimson palm.
“Suppress!”
A voice boomed from beyond the heavens, majestic and ethereal like a deity’s—the voice of Chu Jingye himself.
In the next instant, the fiery palm struck directly at Jiang Ye.
Whoosh! Flames swirled as the palm tore through the void. Amplified by the Palm World, its power had reached a terrifying level.
Moreover, Jiang Ye felt layers of suppression, his realm showing signs of collapsing.
“World suppression?”
“Perfect!” Jiang Ye roared with laughter, a silver-black long spear materializing in his hand.
Boom!
Grasping the Black Divine Spear tightly, Jiang Ye shot skyward, his spear cleaving through heaven and earth as he thrust it directly at the fiery palm.
Whoosh, whoosh!
Simultaneously, Jiang Ye attempted to manipulate the mysteries of heaven and earth.
Hmm?
Here, manipulating the mysteries of heaven and earth is surprisingly difficult, Jiang Ye thought, slightly surprised.
“The Palm World has become self-contained,” Bai Gui explained. “It’s essentially isolated from the external world. Naturally, manipulating the mysteries of heaven and earth will be far more challenging.”
“That’s why I warned you to be careful.”
“Now that you’ve been drawn in, escaping will be troublesome,” Bai Gui sighed softly.
Even she couldn’t think of a good solution to this predicament.
“I see,” Jiang Ye murmured, understanding dawning in his eyes, though he remained unfazed.
This Palm World wasn’t completely isolated from the outside.
Jiang Ye could sense that he still retained a trace of profound mysteries.
Of course, for anyone else—even an eighth breakthrough powerhouse with Transcendent Aptitude—this situation would likely mean certain death.
But Jiang Ye? He remained utterly unfazed.
“Break!” Jiang Ye swung his spear.
The spear radiance blazed brilliantly!
The spear radiance struck the fiery palm directly.
Pfft! With a single strike, the spear tore through the fiery palm. The spear radiance vibrated violently, unleashing a massive burst of light that completely reduced the palm to ashes.
“Huh?!”
“Jiang Ye, you?!” Bai Gui’s eyes widened in astonishment.
Under the Palm World’s suppression, Jiang Ye had still managed to unleash such combat power?
How was that even possible?
“Too weak!” Jiang Ye scoffed coldly, gripping his long spear. He shot skyward, aiming for the world’s weak point.
As if sensing his intent,
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Massive flames coalesced into colossal hands, slamming down on Jiang Ye to block his path.
“Get out of my way!”
Jiang Ye swept his spear horizontally, the spear radiance piercing through heaven and earth.
These massive hands, capable of crushing even eighth breakthrough powerhouses, proved as fragile as paper before Jiang Ye’s spear.
With a single thrust, he annihilated several of the colossal hands, obliterating them with overwhelming force.
In that moment, Jiang Ye resembled a divine war god, radiating boundless light that soared toward the heavens!
“Suppress!”
A thunderous roar echoed from beyond the sky as Chu Jingye channeled his full power to subdue Jiang Ye.
Whoosh! Countless rays of light converged, forming a golden-armored phantom shadow. Its eyes blazed with fierce intensity, radiating an overwhelming aura.
It was Chu Jingye himself!
“Die!” Chu Jingye gripped a golden long spear and charged forward.
“A mere clone dares to challenge me?” Jiang Ye scoffed, showing no fear as he hurled his spear with explosive force.
The two warriors moved with blinding speed, colliding in an instant.
“In this world, no one can defeat me,” Chu Jingye declared coldly. “Surrender now!”
“What a joke! You think you can stop me?” Jiang Ye laughed, channeling boundless stellar energy into a spear thrust.
Boom!
The black and golden long spears clashed violently.
A terrifying surge of energy erupted, instantly changing Chu Jingye’s expression.
Boom! A vast, ocean-like wave of power swept outward, tearing through Chu Jingye’s body and causing both his arms to explode simultaneously.
“Get out of here!” Jiang Ye roared, sweeping his spear horizontally once more.
Spear Art Divine Resonance!
Ash Law!
This strike carried an infinitely terrifying sharpness, piercing directly through Chu Jingye’s body. His form detonated on the spot, dissolving into countless motes of light that vanished into nothingness.
Chu Jingye was dead!
Of course, only his clone had been destroyed.
But even this sight left Bai Gui stunned.
“Two strikes?”
“He shattered a Palm World clone?” Bai Gui’s face was filled with disbelief. She understood the implications of this feat far better than Jiang Ye did.
Palm World clones were practically invincible!
Empowered by world power, they held an overwhelming advantage even against opponents a full realm above them.
Yet Jiang Ye had crushed such a being with just two strikes?
Even the Ash Law shouldn’t be this terrifying!
“Something’s not right… something’s definitely not right!”
“Jiang Ye, what treasure did you find?” Bai Gui asked, her voice filled with suspicion and bewilderment.
She had watched Jiang Ye grow up step by step. How could she suddenly find him so incomprehensible?
“Treasure?” Jiang Ye chuckled at the mention.
His overwhelming combat power wasn’t due to any treasure.
It was because of…
Jiang Ye glanced at his status panel:
[Beauty’s Inquiry], [Tilting at Windmills], [Po Jun], [Martial Saint Bond], [Lower Realm Immortal], [Heart of Counterattack], [Mayfly Shakes the Tree]!
With these seven buffs stacked, Jiang Ye’s combat power had soared to unparalleled heights.
Among them, the [Martial Saint Bond], [Heart of Counterattack], and [Mayfly Shakes the Tree] provided the most significant boosts.
That’s right!
The [Martial Saint Bond] itself granted an immense combat power bonus.
And the 3000% critical damage from [Mayfly Shakes the Tree] was simply terrifying.
Chu Jingye? One spear strike was all it took!
