Chapter 19: The End of the Event
As Lian Yun had thought, Azure Drift had always felt indebted to the General. Although she had taken the General as her disciple, she herself was not skilled in combat and could only impart some basic knowledge and principles.
Over the years, it seemed that the General had grown entirely on her own.
Thus, Azure Drift had considered finding an extraordinary master for the General. However, perhaps out of maternal affection, she hesitated to part with her beloved disciple and had yet to find anyone worthy of such trust, which led to her delay until now.
Now, she felt that if it were the Insect Emperor, she would be more at ease, though she still felt a sense of reluctance.
Lan Ruoxuan did not respond; instead, a hint of coldness crossed her face. But soon after, she shook her head as if giving up on whatever thoughts were occupying her mind.
Back in the secret realm.
Lian Yun was unaware that he had already ranked first; he was still striving to increase his hunting score. This might be the purpose of not having a Ranking List within the secret realm—to allow one to fully gauge another's strength. In this way, the Ranking List would essentially represent the disparity in power.
After a while, although the Insect Emperor had absorbed quite a few Diamond Spirit Coins and consumed two bottles of Mental Potion, he still had not fully recovered.
The main issue was that his internal injuries were severe and required time to heal.
By the time the third round began, he had only recovered to about eighty percent.
However, today’s eighty percent was equivalent to his previous one hundred percent when entangled in Insect Qi; there was no significant difference compared to before, so it did not affect his combat ability.
The General also showed no major changes. Meanwhile, Lian Yun needed to adjust due to Yang Zai Xing's breakthrough.
Once again, he employed his sword technique. This time, however, Lian Yun unleashed the Thousand Soul Sword. The Thousand Soul Sword almost fused into one, transforming into a Greatsword that struck against the Year Beast BSS.
This resulted in four Golden Treasure Boxes being released but shattered over seventy Soul Swords in the process.
This could be seen as a reflection of Lian Yun's skill gap compared to Yang Zai Xing. Nevertheless, even so, the Insect Emperor cast a dissatisfied glance at Lian Yun.
In truth, since the Year Beast BSS could regenerate health, how many Golden Treasure Boxes Lian Yun obtained did not significantly impact him; it was merely frustration on his part.
Thus, Lian Yun chose not to dwell on it and instead closed his eyes in contemplation.
He forged so many Soul Swords to create the Ten Thousand Sword Technique. Although he was currently using it forcefully or haphazardly, he gained some insights. After briefly pondering some key points, he began hunting the Year Beast.
However, at that moment, the Insect Emperor tossed a Mental Potion over without looking back and said, "Do your best to help my precious disciple improve his ranking."
Naturally, Lian Yun would not refuse this request. After all, he himself needed the rewards from the ranking, and even without the Insect Emperor's urging, he would still do his utmost to assist the general.
Yet, there was something slightly awkward about the Insect Emperor's tone. It seemed as if his request was to ensure that Lian Yun's previous bet with the general would lead to her victory, thus sparing him from having to take Lian Yun as his disciple.
Of course, awkwardness aside, Lian Yun was still pleased to help. He focused on Sword Control, occupying nine-tenths of the plaza area.
After six hours, Lian Yun used up a bottle of Mental Potion and finally stopped, as his body issued another warning and his spiritual energy was nearly depleted.
Just then, Yang Zai Xing happened to break through and could join the battle. To Lian Yun's surprise, Yan Lie also broke through, moving even faster as he dashed across the plaza like a black whirlwind, making it difficult for ordinary High-Level Monarchs to catch sight of him.
Additionally, the Insect Emperor had fully restored his strength to its true peak, possibly even surpassing his previous power. Within a minute, he could unleash two Golden Treasure Boxes. If this continued, his gains would far exceed expectations.
On the other hand, the general had reached a limit; unless she learned some profound footwork techniques, it would be hard for her to make further progress. Of course, this only referred to her ability to kill Year Beasts; her combat power was still steadily increasing.
It was as if the Insect Emperor couldn't be bothered to fight Ordinary Year Beasts. If an Ordinary Year Beast had a defense of three and the Insect Emperor's weakest attack was five, it would be an instant kill. However, the extra two points of attack wouldn't count towards effective damage; it would simply be a waste of effort.
The more attacks directed at Ordinary Year Beasts, the greater the wasted effort and time. Thus, it would be better to focus on attacking Year Beast BSS instead.
Even if one combined all the ordinary and Elite Year Beasts in the plaza, they still wouldn't withstand a single punch from him. It would be more effective to strike at Year Beast BSS for greater effective damage value and improve rankings.
The general was in a similar situation now; due to speed limitations, she couldn't fully unleash her strength.
However, in just over two days' time, her progress had been quite remarkable. So even the Insect Emperor couldn't demand more.
Yet he had higher expectations for Lian Yun. After another six hours had passed and Lian Yun had rested for less than ten minutes, he handed Lian Yun another Mental Potion and said, "Hurry up; there's only half left."
In response, Lian Yun accepted the Mental Potion but waited another five minutes before starting to fight again. After all, continuing to battle without allowing his body to recover could result in injuries that might not be severe but would be difficult to heal.
After another six hours of rest,
Lian Yun planned to give it one last push during the final six hours.
After absorbing enough Spiritual Energy, he had many Ghost Slaves on standby within his body. When the Spiritual Energy in the Yin-Yang Stage began to decline, they would compress their realms and squeeze out some spiritual power.
Previously, due to a lack of Purple Qi, individuals like Big Head eventually stopped using Purple Qi for cultivation, all to provide it for the new members.
However, now the Insect Emperor possessed an immense amount of Deep Blue Energy. Even when condensed into Purple Qi and reduced significantly, it was still sufficient for them to cultivate for an entire session.
During this time, although they did not participate in combat, they were not idle either; they focused on cultivation and improving their realms.
In the final six hours, Lian Yun, despite lacking the replenishment of Diamond Spirit Coins, was still able to maximize his combat power.
At the last moment, Lian Yun's true focus was on the Insect Emperor.
Undoubtedly, this final moment was when all Realm Monarchs would unleash their strongest attacks.
With only three minutes remaining, the Insect Emperor disbanded his Ghost Slaves. The Tyrannosaurus Rex-like beast continued its assault on the BSS Beast while the Insect Emperor himself took a step back, assuming a horse stance and gathering his strength.
He accumulated energy for a full one hundred seventy-nine seconds. Just as his Ghost Slaves suddenly dodged and the Year Beast BSS charged forward, he unleashed a dual dragon strike.
