Chapter 551 228: True Form
Amidst constant tremors, spider-web-like cracks appeared on the entire giant statue above, and the stone skin quickly fell off, dropping into the artificial Star Sea and turning into halos, completely disappearing, revealing dazzling light beneath the stone skin.
The next moment.
The statue's figure emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the surroundings, stepping forward towards the naturally formed arena in the checkpoint zone!
With each step, his figure shrank slightly, and the light around him became more restrained. By the time he reached the front of the arena, he had reverted from a giant statue to the size of an ordinary person.
This scene caught the attention of nearly everyone in the checkpoint area.
Looking at this figure, many people's thoughts turned, and because of this, they also looked at the figure on the other side of the arena, Qin Jin.
"Are there other hidden conditions for this checkpoint to enter the Fifth-level Region?"
"Could this giant statue be the subject of the assessment? He seems to be the essence of [Martial]."
"Who is this person, and how did he trigger all this?"
Everyone's thoughts were complex.
In the Miracle Corridor, where no communication between one another was possible, they were destined to explore everything on their own.
On the other side, the statue of Martial reached the front of the arena and stepped onto it. At that moment, the starlight on the arena floor below Qin Jin began to expand, and in an instant, its area increased several times over.
[Martial] stood on the arena, excitement gleaming in his eyes, as if unsealed, his momentum soared, his robes fluttering, layers of aura burst forth. Judging from his aura, he indeed experienced considerable improvement.
Though it was just a brief encounter, Qin Jin already deduced the modification of this checkpoint—those figures on the arena responded in battles, underwent tests, but participants could also attack the main body, the statue, to gain qualification to proceed to the Fifth-level Region.
After passing tests on stamina, speed, and perception, participants faced a trial of combat power.
Under Qin Jin's gaze, [Martial]'s aura continued to rise, power flowed naturally outward, ink-like glow carrying a profound pressure, revealing a radiant smile, eager to try, he spoke: "Please."
The sound was thunderous, reverberating across the arena.
Qin Jin raised an eyebrow.
His voice sounded, entering [Martial]'s ears.
"Bring out your full strength."
His voice was calm.
"Full strength?"
[Martial] paused in his expression, but soon realized: "That's what you said last time."
"You're really confident."
"Rest assured, I will use my full strength."
As his words fell, the arena fell silent for a moment.
Within several breaths, those who had faced off more than once seemed to have developed enough rapport, simultaneously, without instruction, they moved.
Around [Martial], the ink-colored power glow rapidly extended, he stepped forward, moving with intent, as the intense power surged forth, mysterious patterns emerged on his surface. In the next moment, his domain activated, vastly expanding under the power's blessing.
The figure advanced during this process.
The continuously expanding domain contained violent power ceaselessly exploding, and in an instant, a storm resembling ink appeared on the arena, extremely fierce, with power raging within, like a cutting knife, sweeping across the arena, destructively overpowering everything, rushing at Qin Jin.
Qin Jin watched all this coldly.
Everything happened in an instant, the storm engulfed the arena, and in the eyes of contestant after contestant focusing their attention, only within an instant, Qin Jin's figure was consumed by the ink-colored storm.
"Defeated like this?"
"The strength of Martial's statue figure seems far superior to those on other arenas, just judging by the power tier displayed, it's exceptional."
"Indeed."
"The same checkpoint's test shouldn't have such disparities, there must be other hidden rules."
Those able to reach here are not ordinary figures, analyzing meticulously within their minds.
Everything happened swiftly, in the next moment, someone's expression changed, showing waves of emotion!
Looking towards.
Martial's domain spread, nearly encapsulating the entire arena, and within the ink-colored storm was an extremely violent power. But at that instant, among the lineup of participants, those with more outstanding Spiritual Perception seemingly heard the piercing sound of a weapon being drawn from the arena.
The sound flashed by, making one believe it was an auditory hallucination, but in the next instant, they saw within the ink-colored storm, a Divine Weapon unsheath itself, sharp to the extreme.
"What is this?!"
"Wait, this doesn't seem like reality, but rather the power being too sharp and strong, affecting our spiritual senses, seemingly showing the moment of the Divine Weapon unsheathing."
Within the shock of their hearts.
Encapsulated by the ink-colored storm, facing the attacking [Martial], Qin Jin took action.
Power constantly impacted his domain, his expression calm, unflustered, yet within a moment, capabilities launched, blessing his body, two systems fusing continuously, everything flowing naturally. When the True Dragon Treasure Skill was exhibited, paired with the Weapon Casting Record, Qin Jin's aura became exceptionally sharp, and on the vaguely dragon-shaped phantom surrounding him, Dragon Scales seemed to reflect myriad weapons.
He raised his hand, clenched his fist, and the surging power within him roared. In front was the charging [Martial], neither said more, and in the next moment, fist met fist.
No technique, no strategy, there was only pure force collision!
