Chapter 397 The Arrogant Ye Jinrong, His Deadly Move
Jiang Chen had met Ye Jinrong when he first arrived at the Alien Battlefield.
At the time, he was just a level 30 newbie, but now he has completed his second job advancement, which is quite impressive.
However, Jiang Chen sensed something was off about Ye Jinrong's aura; it seemed he hadn't leveled up through normal means.
In Jiang Chen's perception, his aura seemed weak and unstable, as if his attributes fluctuated greatly.
Ye Jinrong said with a sneer, "What do you mean by becoming a lackey of the Demon Worship Society? Don't put it so harshly. My relationship with them is just one of cooperation."
Jiang Chen said with a hint of disdain, "What qualifications do you, a mere level 40 Holy Light Knight, have to cooperate with them?"
Ye Jinrong covered his head and laughed, "What Holy Light Knight? I'm now a Holy Word Knight, a mid-level Mythical Holy Word Knight."
A single word can make a huge difference in a profession, and that profession can be ranked a whole level higher.
Ye Jinrong's laughter grew increasingly maniacal. "Do you even know what a Holy Word Knight is? You wouldn't understand even if I told you. I'll just show you, like this!"
As he spoke, he glanced at a knight in the distance and coldly uttered a single word, "Slay!"
Without him making any move, a sharp sword light swept out and instantly struck the opponent.
Amidst screams, the knight was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground, sustaining a deep, bone-revealing wound.
Ye Jinrong laughed wildly, "See that? This is the Holy Word Knight, whose words become law."
A hint of pity flickered in Jiang Chen's eyes. In Ye Jinrong's view, the Holy Word Knight seemed to be an unparalleled being, but how could such a person truly comprehend just how high an unparalleled being truly was?
Jiang Chen said, "You've become a lackey of the Demon Worship Society, deliberately refusing to eat the fruit, just so you can kill us all here, right?"
Ye Jinrong chuckled, "Well said."
Jiang Chen continued, "But what's the use of killing us? These are all geniuses from various families. Which one of them hasn't had a soul imprint implanted? They can be resurrected even if we're killed."
Jiang Chen's words seemed to put everyone's minds at ease.
The tension I was feeling seemed to ease a lot at once.
"Yes, we have a soul imprint, so we can be resurrected even after death."
"At worst, we'll pay a price. Ye Jinrong, we'll definitely kill you when we get out of here."
"You're finished, and the Ye family is finished too." Ye Jinrong let out a long "Oh," and grinned. "Do you think I'd give you a chance to be resurrected?"
As he spoke, he took out a black stone.
It's the kind of stone that abyssal demons often use.
With a cruel smile, Ye Jinrong crushed the stone.
A barrier spread out and enveloped the area in the blink of an eye.
The moment the barrier was created, someone's expression changed drastically and they exclaimed, "Oh no, it's the Abyss Demon's Soul-Destroying Barrier!"
Their faces turned deathly pale. "We're finished. We're going to die here. There's no way we can be resurrected."
The Soul-Destroying Barrier can annihilate the souls of the dead.
Those killed within the Soul-Destroying Barrier cannot be resurrected, even if they possess a soul imprint.
Ye Jinrong laughed even more maniacally, "Are you scared? Are you terrified? You're all about to die." He looked at Lin Cai'er, Yi Ning, and Jiang Ruo, his eyes filled with evil, and licked his lips, "Before I kill you, I'm going to have some fun."
Jiang Ruo chuckled lightly, "You? Xiao Chen, kill him."
Jiang Chen was now filled with killing intent, and a longsword appeared in his hand—a platinum-grade longsword.
The sword's attributes were unimportant to Jiang Chen, as long as it was sharp enough.
Ye Jinrong is a Holy Word Knight, a mid-level mythical-grade professional, a level 40 Holy Word Knight.
The total attribute value should be around 6.
Jiang Chen's current attribute is 4, a difference of 2.
Furthermore, Ye Jinrong's skills were not sealed, but Jiang Chen's skills were all sealed.
Even with such a large gap in skill, Jiang Chen was still confident he could kill him. Holding his sword, Jiang Chen walked step by step toward Ye Jinrong.
In other people's eyes, Jiang Chen is crazy.
Ye Jinrong also thought Jiang Chen had gone mad, and he laughed even more wildly, "You, a mage, actually want to fight me with a sword? Are you out of your mind?"
No one noticed that Jiang Chen was not affected by the freezing aura at all.
"I originally intended to kill you last, but now I've changed my mind! Die, cut down!"
The Holy Word Knight can unleash skills simply by using Holy Word.
A sharp sword light slashed towards Jiang Chen; this attack would either kill Jiang Chen or severely injure him.
As the lightsaber came hurtling towards him, Jiang Chen casually sidestepped, narrowly avoiding it.
Ye Jinrong's expression changed drastically. He unleashed two more sword beams, which Jiang Chen easily dodged again. "Impossible!"
Ye Jinrong couldn't believe how Jiang Chen had managed to evade it.
At this moment, Jiang Chen was only five meters away from Ye Jinrong.
With a slight push of his feet, he shot out like lightning, appearing in front of Ye Jinrong as if by teleportation, and thrust out his sword.
Ye Jinrong roared, "Go to hell!"
Skill: Cross Slash!
Skill: Sacred Flame Aura!
The knight's sword in his hand unleashed a burst of sword light, and at the same time, a flaming halo appeared beneath his feet once more.
In an instant, everyone felt as if they had been burned by the flames.
The simultaneous attack of ice and fire was extremely painful.
One by one, they took out their medicine and started taking it.
Jiang Chen ignored the sword light and the halo of the holy fire.
The sword tip was aimed at Ye Jinrong's neck, which was exposed outside his armor, and it stabbed down hard.
That posture looked like they were going to die together.
Ye Jinrong smiled cruelly, confident that his attack would tear Jiang Chen to shreds.
He ignored Jiang Chen's attack.
What harm could a mage with only a few hundred attributes possibly do to me?
No matter how strong your defense is, you can stand there and let me cut you down without caring.
The next second, his eyes suddenly widened, and he retreated hastily.
Jiang Chen's sword actually pierced through his defenses. If he had reacted any slower, the sword would have stabbed into his neck.
Jiang Chen managed to dodge his own cross slash at the last moment, without affecting his attack in the slightest.
Jiang Chen, filled with killing intent, quickly caught up, his speed no slower than Ye Jinrong's. His longsword thrust out again, its fierce momentum startling Ye Jinrong.
Ye Jinrong parried with his sword, and as the two swords clashed, he discovered that Jiang Chen's strength was not much weaker than his own.
Ye Jinrong exclaimed, "You didn't eat the fruit?"
"No, you ate it, so why are your attributes still so strong?"
"Why can you ignore the control of my aura?"
"Aren't you a mage? Why, why!"
At this moment, Ye Jinrong transformed into a crazy "100,000 Whys" machine.
Having gone through the trials of the Divine Dragon Tower, Jiang Chen had become thoroughly familiar with all the professions.
He had long since mastered the art of knightly combat.
Even without skills, he can still unleash a fairly strong attack.
The fruit sealed the skills, but the passive skill effects remained. Over 19000 skeletons were sharing the damage for Jiang Chen.
Moreover, it also has state immunity, ignoring any control measures.
Jiang Chen, with his abilities, is not someone who can be killed easily.
The longswords clashed repeatedly, producing a clanging sound.
Ye Jinrong grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed; Jiang Chen's swordsmanship was actually superior to his own.
"How is this possible? He's clearly a mage!"
It's simply unbelievable that a mage's swordsmanship surpasses that of a knight.
Some people noticed that Jiang Chen was gaining the upper hand and couldn't help but show their delight.
They had hope again.
They were all shouting, "General Jiang, kill him!"
"Go Jiang Shenjiang, you must kill this bastard!"
After dozens of clashes, Ye Jinrong realized that although Jiang Chen was powerful, his attributes were still inferior to his own.
At the same time, Jiang Chen was unable to use his skills.
He grinned maliciously again, confident that if the fight continued like this, he would surely win.
"This time, you'll definitely die!"
He roared inwardly.
Skill: Holy Annihilation Sword Slash!
The sword light exploded, and the sky was filled with sword energy. Hundreds and thousands of sword energies enveloped Jiang Chen.
There is no way to avoid it!
"It's over!"
"It's dead now."
The group of people all looked sorrowful and their faces were somber.
The nascent flame of hope was instantly extinguished.
No one believed Jiang Chen could survive such an attack. Although Jiang Chen was already quite impressive, his combat skills gave them hope for a brief moment.
Jiang Shenjiang lives up to his reputation.
Everyone present thought so.
But now, they are also clearly aware that their hopes have been dashed.
The sword light engulfed Jiang Chen.
Ye Jinrong grinned maniacally again, "Now you're dead."
The sword light was like a sea, and a sword silently pierced out from it, penetrating Ye Jinrong's body while he was still laughing.
The laughter stopped abruptly, and Ye Jinrong stared in disbelief at Jiang Chen bursting out from the sword light.
At that moment, he felt as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.
Jiang Chen looked at him with a solemn expression, as if he were looking at a dead man.
This sword strike wouldn't kill him; at most, it would severely injure him.
Jiang Chen produced another dagger in his left hand and stabbed it towards Ye Jinrong's neck.
Ye Jinrong looked terrified, his body glowing as the Knight's signature skill, Ultimate Defense, was about to be unleashed.
boom!
A terrifying killing intent descended from the sky upon Ye Jinrong, and the Domain Divine Stone continuously...
Ye Jinrong experienced a series of hallucinations, and his ultimate defense was immediately broken.
He was completely stunned on the spot.
Jiang Chen's dagger had already pierced his neck in an instant.
Blood flew everywhere.
A professional is not an ordinary person; this attack still couldn't kill him.
Jiang Chen's power was just enough to break through his defenses.
Two blows are not enough to kill him.
