Chapter 2271
Jackie turned around and did not respond. No matter what the masked man said, he acted as if he heard nothing. It did not matter how much he said.

On top of that, Jackie looked forward to the last challenge. If this was before the absorption of that Scattered Soul Crystal in the blood world, he might not be a match against the masked man. However, the current situation was different. The Scattered Soul Crystal allowed Jackie to form 20 soul swords. Coupled with the 15 soul swords he formed before, he had a total of 35 soul swords, which reassured him from being intimidated.

The mark that he had mastered Destroying the Void was when he managed to form 50 soul swords. As of late, he was only 15 soul swords away from his aim of 50 soul swords. Once he managed to form 50 soul swords, nobody in the innate level would be his opponent. After all, Destroying the Void was at least I in the ultimate god level, and nobody in the innate level, apart from Jackie, could practice martial skills of the ultimate god level. This was Jackie’s greatest advantage.

“A total of five people have passed the challenge!” The old voice spoke again and instantly silenced those who were still embroiled in chatters and gossip. “Those who’ve succeeded shall continue to climb up the Divine Void Slope! This time, you’ll be allowed to climb a hundred and eighty meters and arrive before the sixth Divine Void Warrior!”

Everyone looked at the five challengers once the announcement was over. At this moment, Graham and the others had almost recovered. All five of them wasted no time and immediately climbed forward. Out of the 180 people there, only five of them were qualified at this moment. Everyone else looked at the final five continuing their ascension as sadness, envy, and jealousy flashed past their eyes.

Riv could not help but lament, “This is really cruel. I thought that I’d be able to face the eighth Divine Void Warrior no matter what, but I never thought I’d fail to even defeat the third warrior.”

Riv had never realized such a difference between his talents and the others. They were in the final stage of the innate level, but the difference was vast. He could even imagine how the eldest disciple of the Corpse Pavilion could kill him with a single attack. Riv was not the only one who felt this way as many of those there also felt the same. They felt terrible, but there was nothing they could do.

Jackie walked calmly as he climbed toward the 180meter-point, one step after another. An extremely tall Divine Void Warrior was already standing there, staring at him indifferently as if Jackie was the tiniest ant in the world. It felt like he would disappear with a wave of the warrior’s hand.

It felt terrible to be stared at in such a way, but Jackie had already gotten used to it.

The Divine Void Slope was still covered by a layer of thin mist, and no one could even see clearly what the slope was made of. The five of them were placed at five different positions and were a certain distance from each other. Apart from Jackie, they were looking at each other. Finally, they arrived at the 180-meterposition 15 minutes later. Those who turned around to look backward from this position finally felt like they were able to see everything in a single glance. The clan brothers that were eliminated looked upward at them like little mice.

With the mechanism being activated, the sounds of cranks audible, the Divine Void Warrior started moving. The warrior was still holding his weapon, but he raised his leg and was prepared to move to one side, much to the five’s confusion. After all, the Divine Void Warriors they faced in the past would not start attacking before they got ready. The five of them could not help but walk several steps backward.

The Divine Void Warriors ignored all five people and moved to the left in unison to move away from their previous positions. As all five of them were wondering what the warriors wanted to do, they saw a red light flashing past them the next second. Another Divine Void Warrior appeared at the position the first Divine Void Warrior moved away from.

Chapter 2272
Not only did a Divine Void Warrior appear right in front of them, but the same Divine Void Warrior appeared on their left after the same red light flashed past them. “Goodness… Three Divine Void Warriors? What’s happening?” Before the five of them said anything, those standing underneath the slope had already started to go crazy.

True enough, the challenges grew increasingly difficult, and now that three Divine Void Warriors appeared at once, were each of them supposed to fight three warriors by themselves?

As they began to feel unsettled, the old voice once again appeared beside their ears. Each of you will fight three Divine Void Warriors, all slightly stronger than the warriors you defeated during the second challenge. However, these warriors also use the same martial skill, Dream Soul Swordsmanship. Defeating all three Divine Void Warriors is equivalent to passing the sixth, seventh, and eighth challenges!”

Once the announcement was over, the people standing at the bottom of the slope once again started rambling

50 percent of them failed to carry out the third challenge, while 99 percent of them failed to pass the third challenge. However, most of those standing at the bottom of the slope experienced the second challenge, and the lingering fear toward the second challenge loomed in their hearts. Many of them were defeated during the second challenge, and none of them could imagine that their sixth challenge was four times more difficult than the second challenge.

Four times the difficulty was inaccurate, however, as the Divine Void Warriors standing in front of them were stronger than those they faced during the second challenge. More importantly, they had to defeat three at once! On top of that, the martial skill they used was the Dream Soul Swordsmanship! When they attacked, they would be divided into two, and if they failed to defeat the second one soon after they defeated the first one, the warriors would absorb the remaining power left behind by the first warrior.

The second warrior would replenish itself, and its power would double in an instant. This meant that once they started fighting, each of them had to handle six Divine Void Warriors—all powerful beings, too!

“How are they supposed to defeat the warriors?” asked Riv, his mouth hanging open widely. Nelson also smiled bitterly and shook his head. “Even if I pass the third challenge by force, I’d fail this challenge for sure! It’s too difficult!” Nelson meant this from the bottom of his heart. Although he won easily during the second challenge, he was facing a limited number of enemies. He did not have the certainty of winning if he was asked to face six warriors at once!

The people standing at the bottom of the slope could not help but start mumbling.

“Do they even want them to let these people win the challenge? I feel that the difficulty set by this Divine Void Slope is meant to make us stuck here so that nobody wins the challenge!”

“That’s right! Even if this fight represents the sixth, seventh, and eighth challenges, there’s still a ninth challenge awaiting them. I wonder how difficult the ninth challenge is, seeing how difficult the previous challenges were already. I’m scared to even think of the ninth challenge; I think that it’s almost impossible to complete!”

The people standing at the bottom were extremely noisy while those five standing on the slope were in peace. After some time, Benjamin was the first one to speak. “It’s quite challenging. Senior Brother Graham, are… Are you confident?”

Graham glanced at Benjamin. The two of them were chosen disciples directly trained by the Thousand Leaves Pavilion. They were stronger and much more talented than usual disciples, and they also understood each other’s strength well.

Benjamin was slightly uncertain as he faced the challenge that had doubled in difficulty. However, he felt that Graham should be capable of passing the challenge. Graham exhaled and said. “Don’t go into the fight thinking you’ll lose; this will weaken your momentum. You won’t win with that attitude!”

Benjamin nodded and kept quiet. The masked man glanced at Lennon, the junior brother standing beside him, without saying a word. Lennon was slightly nervous, but he understood his senior brother’s temperament well. The masked man would not have blinked even if he died in front of the masked man.

“You look like you can always remain calm no matter what happens,” remarked the masked man as he turned around to look at Jackie.

Jackie could not help but roll his eyes. This guy had always tried to cause him trouble, no matter where he was. He seemed to revel whenever Jackie was in any form of issue.

Chapter 2273
“Can you stop talking?” grumbled Jackie. No matter what, their relationship was especially acrimonious, and nothing good would happen even if he spoke nicely. This was why Jackie decided to not let this guy get used to doing this.

The masked man’s face darkened as Jackie spoke against him. He was so angry that he almost choked. “B*stard! Just wait and see! Don’t think that you’re safe just because I can’t do anything to you right now!

Jackie chuckled and replied nonchalantly, “Then I’ll be waiting for whatever you’ll do. I just hope that you don’t beg me to forgive you in tears when we get to that point.”

The masked man was so angry that his hands trembled when he heard this. Graham and the others even looked toward Jackie in surprise; even he dared not speak to the masked man with such an attitude. After all, there were certain things he had to do in order to maintain their superficial relationship. Was Jackie not afraid that the masked man would try everything in his power to kill him after he spoke so definitively? Graham grew increasingly curious when he saw how calm Jackie was, but the argument did not continue.

“Whoosh!”

The sound of sharp knives being unsheathed could be heard by all five of them, and they turned to look toward where the sound came from at the same time. All five Divine Void Warriors standing in front of them released a bright red light from their eyes at the same time, bright like the sun. All three Divine Void Warriors standing in front of each person pulled their weapons out at the same time. It was still a sword that was three meters long, but this time, the sword was not covered in a purple light. Instead, the sword was surrounded by a layer of intense red color, and it looked like the sun was burning.

“It’s coming!” Nelson looked upward and lowered his voice as he spoke. The people standing at the bottom of the slope started to get nervous. This was going to be a very intense battle, and they had no idea if any of them would be able to pass the challenge.

“Senior Brother Graham will pass the challenge, for sure!” exclaimed one of the Thousand Leaves Pavilion’s disciples. The Corpse Pavilion’s disciples did not wish to be outdone and started shouting that their eldest senior brother would win when they saw that the Thousand Leaves Pavilion’s disciples were working so hard. They even shouted that Senior Brother Lennon would also win. The sounds of people cheering could be heard coming from the bottom of the slope, and it shook the earth. However, this did not affect the mentality of those five people standing on the slope.

Jackie restrained all his thoughts as he stared at the three Divine Void Warriors in front of him. The warrior in the middle moved, and he swung the red knife in his hands, rushing forward like a cannonball. The two other Divine Void Warriors followed after the first warrior as they rushed to attack Jackie.

The same happened to all five of them, and those standing at the bottom of the slope saw everything that happened. The crowd inhaled deeply as things were happening just as they imagined. The three warriors attacked in a semi-surrounding manner so that the five of them did not have a chance of avoiding the attack!

Jackie frowned and continuously performed seals with his hands. The grayish-black seals formed in his palms, and within the blink of an eye, all 35 soul swords appeared in his palms. The 35 soul swords exuded energy that looked like mist.

At this moment, the Divine Void Warriors that came rushing toward him were covered in a red light in mid -air. The next second, the three warriors separated into six warriors. Six identical Divine Void Warriors held onto the same red sword as they aimed for the center of Jackie’s head!

Chapter 2274
Jackie put his hands together, and the 35 soul swords floating in his palms immediately combined into three. Three huge soul swords floated three meters In front of Jackie, and a sharp look flashed past his eyes.

The old announcer mentioned that the Divine Void Warriors were stronger than the warriors he faced during the second challenge. Although they were not very much stronger, it was no longer realistic to handle all six of them with the previous strategy he used. He had to defeat half of them first!

Once again, he performed the seals with his hands, and the grayish-black seals instantly merged with the huge soul sword in front of him. The soul sword was like a cannon ready to be launched. With a swing, the huge soul sword rushed toward the Divine Void Warrior. Both parties moved speedily and rammed into each other before Jackie managed to take his second breath.

With a loud bang, the red light and the grayish-black soul sword collided with each other heavily. At that moment, the black and red colors blended together.
