Chapter 1895: Instant Kill! I Just Don't Believe He Can Kill the Supreme Overlord!
Not long after, Xu Jingming and the Reindeer Overlord had both arrived on the arena.
"Human race heaven's pride, Xu Jingming!"
The Reindeer Overlord had a tall and slender figure, about five meters high.
His entire body was covered in soft, pale gold fur.
On his head, a pair of antlers branching like coral were crystal clear and translucent, flowing with a pale green life radiance.
Most striking were his amber eyes, calm and profound, as if they could perceive the trajectories of all things.
"In the previous battle, although you defeated the Black Bull, you have already shown signs of fatigue."
The Reindeer Overlord spoke in a warm and mellow voice, yet carried a strong confidence:
"Your lightning is indeed powerful, but it lacks sustained force.
Though your spear technique is refined, it lacks variation; in this battle, you will surely lose."
As he spoke, a pale green halo flowed around his body.
Faintly appearing behind him were hundreds of golden deer silhouettes.
Each one was lifelike, their aura elusive and hard to discern.
"Thousand Deer Illusion! The famed signature technique of the Reindeer!"
"This move blends reality and illusion, impossible to defend against! Xu Jingming struggled so much against the Black Bull earlier—he will surely fall this time."
"Indeed."
"..."
On the spectator stands, murmurs immediately arose.
Xu Jingming simply stood still, his black eyes calm and undisturbed.
He did not even draw his Thunder Hell Annihilation Spear, merely letting his hands hang loosely at his sides.
"You seem rather indifferent?"
The Reindeer Overlord narrowed his amber eyes, "But wait a moment, and you will know what pain is!"
"Both sides ready, duel—begin!"
At the instant the electronic referee's prompt sounded, the Reindeer Overlord moved!
"Thousand Deer Illusion!"
"Ong——!"
Hundreds of golden deer silhouettes roared in unison, their sound waves like a tide!
Immediately, all the deer silhouettes charged forward together.
Turning into a torrent of golden light flowing across the sky, they surged from all directions to engulf Xu Jingming!
Each beam of light was indistinguishable between real and illusory, their auras completely identical—even divine sense could not tell true from false!
"Here it comes! The Reindeer's killing move!"
"Cannot distinguish real from fake at all!"
"How will Xu Jingming block it?"
"..."
Exclamations erupted from the spectator stands.
However.
At the center of the arena, Xu Jingming did not move at all.
He simply stood still in place.
Gazing at the emerald-green illusions flooding toward him, his black eyes flickered with a hint of boredom.
"Flashy tricks."
He muttered softly, then raised his right hand, fingers loosely clenched.
"Zila——!!!"
The next instant.
A blinding, ultimate golden lightning burst suddenly erupted from his palm!
The lightning condensed into substance, forming a golden lightning bolt as thick as a water barrel, instantly piercing the void!
Taiyi Divine Lightning!
"Puchi!!!"
A faint piercing sound.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
The sky-full of emerald-green illusions suddenly froze, then shattered like foam and scattered.
On the arena, only the Reindeer Overlord's true form remained.
Still holding his charging posture, he stood frozen a hundred meters before Xu Jingming.
He lowered his head, incredulously staring at his own chest.
There, a water-bucket-sized charred hole pierced through front to back.
At the edge of the hole, golden lightning tigers leapt and spread like living things.
Erasing his vitality, divine power, and even his soul completely.
"How... possible......"
The Reindeer Overlord struggled to lift his head, his amber eyes reflecting Xu Jingming's calm face.
He wanted to roar! He wanted to struggle!
But the golden lightning had already fully erupted.
Boom!
His body, together with those exquisite, crystalline deer antlers.
Together turned into flying ash scattered across the sky, dissipating on the arena.
Instant kill!
From the start to the end of the duel, less than 0.1 second!
Silence.
Deathly silence.
On the spectator stands, over two hundred thousand dominators.
Whether human, demon, insect, or other races.
All widened their eyes, gaped their mouths, as if collectively petrified.
One move?
No, not even counting as a move, just a casual bolt of lightning?
Just now he was locked in a hard fight with the Black Ox Dominator.
Xu Jingming, who barely won by one move, now instantly killed the stronger Deer Dominator with a single bolt of lightning?
This contrast is too great!
"Duel ended! Victor——Human Heaven Punishment Dominator!"
The electronic judge's voice suddenly rang out!
"Whoa——!!!"
After a brief deathly silence, the entire arena exploded!
"Instant kill?! The deer was instant killed?!"
"What power was that lightning?!"
"How is this possible?! The Deer Dominator is stronger than the Black Ox Dominator, an undying dominator!"
"..."
Exclamations and doubts swept across the arena like a tsunami!
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
On the spectator stands, a demon dominator suddenly stood up and roared hoarsely:
"Xu Jingming!
You fought the Black Ox Dominator to a draw in your last match, barely winning!
How could you possibly instant kill the Deer Dominator in this match?! How could your strength differ so much?!"
This roar voiced everyone's doubt.
Countless gazes focused sharply on the black figure at the center of the arena.
Xu Jingming slowly lowered his right hand, the golden lightning threads jumping on his body quietly fading away.
He lifted his head, looked at the questioning demon dominator, blinked, and said with just the right amount of confusion:
"Really?"
He tilted his head, as if seriously considering it for a moment, then suddenly said:
"Oh, you mean the last match.
That was probably because I had just arrived at the Return to Origin Holy Hall, wasn't acclimated, and wasn't in good shape."
For ordinary dominators, the Deer Dominator's move just now was indeed somewhat intimidating.
But his Spirit Refining Technique has already been cultivated to perfection, his spiritual sense incredibly powerful.
He had long since locked onto the true body, so striking naturally resulted in an instant kill.
"Condition...... not good?"
The demon dominator held his breath, his chest nearly bursting, almost spitting blood.
What does "not acclimated" mean!
Dominator-level powerhouses, traversing the universe, roaming the star seas.
When have we ever heard of using "not acclimated" as an excuse?!
Before the spectator stands.
In the Heaven War Dominator's crimson pupils, the original calm had long been replaced by shock and fury.
He fiercely stared at Xu Jingming on the arena.
Around him, faintly, blazing laws surged out of control, scorching the surrounding void into a slight distortion.
"Damn it!"
The Heaven War Dominator squeezed out two words from between his teeth, his voice low and muffled like thunder:
"This Xu Jingming's strength is far greater than we expected!"
"How much more so."
Beside him, the Star Eating Dominator's alluring smile had already vanished.
In her deep purple eyes now lay only coldness and solemnity:
"In the last match, he was clearly acting!
Feigning weakness to lure other dominators to challenge him!"
She paused, her voice carrying a hint of chill:
"We...... were all played by him.
At least fifty or sixty thousand dominators have challenged him this time!"
Each bet is 100 source coins; he's trying to sweep away over five or six million source coins in one go!
What a huge appetite!
Five or six million source coins?!
The Heavenly War Sovereign's pupils contracted slightly.
Even for the Apocalypse Sovereign, this amount of wealth would be an astonishing fortune!
It even prompted him to attempt a breakthrough toward the Realm Lord level!
"We can't let him get it so easily!"
The Heavenly War Sovereign's crimson pupils flashed with cold light as he said, "On the challenger list, is there a Paramount Sovereign?"
"Yes."
The Eclipse Sovereign gave a slight nod, his fingertip lightly touching the void.
A light curtain appeared, displaying densely packed challenger information:
"The Monster Race's Stone Sovereign, our Insect Race's Blood Locust Sovereign, the Demon Race's Flame Demon Sovereign......
Over twelve Paramount Sovereigns have challenged him."
After a pause, she added: "But there's no Apocalypse Sovereign."
Would the Apocalypse Sovereign challenge a Initial Tribulation Sovereign?
Even if he won, he'd be ridiculed.
So no one would choose to do that.
"Having a Paramount Sovereign is enough."
The Heavenly War Sovereign's gaze fell upon the dueling platform below, and he said in a deep voice:
"I don't believe he can defeat even a Paramount Sovereign!"
