Chapter 1926: 795, this is the Soaring Cloud Armor!_2

Translator: 549690339

The Duantian Sect has a unique approach to forging with spiritual materials, capable of unleashing the deepest potential of these materials.

Duantian Sect, wasn’t it Qu Zhengjia who went there back then?

Last time, Xu Ao mentioned he couldn’t guess Qu Zhengjia’s identity and wondered if this guy might be in the divine realm.

“Hum”

The brilliance flickered, and a golden armor phantom emerged.

After three hours and using a heap of spiritual materials, the Sky Cloud Armor was finally refined.

Looking at the black armor in front of him, Master Yun Ji sighed in relief.

The Sky Cloud Armor refined today could be considered his most perfect work to date.

From start to finish, all steps were seamlessly interconnected with perfect harmony.

The operation of various powers had reached the desired limit.

Satisfaction glittered in his eyes; Master Yun Ji looked up and toward the front.

He didn’t believe there was any black armor in the world that could outshine the Sky Cloud Armor he held in his hands.

Those at the Universe level required countless time, resources, and long-term nurturing of Great Spiritual essence to achieve success.

Armor like this, refined on the spot, displayed the true skill level of a blacksmith.

Yun Ji was confident that within the entire divine realm, there were few who could surpass him in the art of refining weapons.

His gaze swept across the audience, a flicker of battle intent in his eyes.

Luo the Madman, Zheng Yaoyang, including Xun Chu Yun—these were the ones he aspired to surpass.

As for Han Muye, who relied on the Cloud Mist Armor’s illusions, he was no longer in Yun Ji’s consideration.

Some ancient almighty reincarnated? It’s simply a spectacle to attract attention, an embarrassing display.

“Test the armor,” Master Yun Ji called out loudly, pushing the black armor before him forward.

On the other side, Han Muye also raised his hand slightly, and his golden robe transformed into a golden ring that floated serenely.

Below the high platform, two figures dashed upward.

They were both level nine Armor Masters.

Not only were their cultivation realms identical, but their offensive skills and methods were also interconnected.

In Heavenly Secret City, cultivators are specially trained for gambling fights.

In Heavenly Secret City, those who wield the power of speech are blacksmiths. Since they aren’t adept at squabbling, they train cultivators to fight on their behalf.

These cultivators receive various resources within Heavenly Secret City and, once their cultivation has reached a certain level, they can leave the Heavenly Secret City to venture elsewhere.

However, within the divine realm, there aren’t many places more comfortable and enriching than Heavenly Secret City.

The two level nine Armor Masters stepped forward—one raised his hand to don the Sky Cloud Armor refined by Master Yun Ji, while the other reached out to grasp the ring before Han Muye.

“Hum”

The ring trembled, transforming into a stream-like golden soft halo, enveloping the Armor Master’s body.

This smooth process caught everyone by surprise for a moment.

The Armor Master, admiring the flowing halo on his body, could not help but twinkle with delight in his eyes.

“This power is so peculiar,” he murmured.

He slowly clenched his fist, letting the golden Flowing Light converge around his exterior.

The golden armor covered his body, and then a long saber, thin as a cicada’s wing, materialized.

Below the platform, everyone watched this scene with curiosity.

It’s common for battle armor to materialize, but wasn’t this armor a bit too miraculous?

Moreover, this armor clearly didn’t undergo much refining at all!

Is weapon refining really that easy?

“Cloud Mist Armor, Phantom Soldier, ancient inheritance… some things indeed allow for whimsical creation,” Luo Shentong muttered under his breath, his eyes shining with eagerness, as though he could hardly wait to rush up the platform himself.

“Chu Yun, just watching this gambling fight is already worth it,” Zheng Yaoyang chuckled lightly, standing beside Xun Chu Yun.

Worth it?

Xun Chu Yun’s expression shifted.

He could somewhat discern the extraordinary nature of the Soaring Cloud Armor.

But he didn’t want to admit, nor did he believe, that such black armor could outperform the Sky Cloud Armor refined by Master Yun Ji.

He was well aware of the capabilities contained within the Sky Cloud Armor.

But what did Zheng Yaoyang mean by saying this to him at this moment?

“Brother Zheng, one of the stakes in this gamble is the Heavenly Frost Hammer.”

“That item is of extreme importance to my Xun Family,” Xun Chu Yun spoke in a low and hushed voice.

“The Heavenly Frost Hammer?” Zheng Yaoyang turned his head, his eyes flashing with surprise: “You mean the very hammer that the ancient caretaker of your family personally guarded but was stolen by Sword God Lu Yue?”

“If it is that item, indeed it’s worth a contest…”

As he spoke, he looked up toward the platform before shaking his head again.

He remained silent.

Fight for it?

With what could he possibly compete?

Who to compete against?

With this one on the platform?

“Fight.” Both level nine Armor Masters on the platform roared simultaneously, their figures charging at each other.

In front of Master Yun Ji, the level nine Armor Master raised his fist, and the world around him instantly became turbulent and illusory.

Illusion!

At this moment, the crowd beneath the platform was fine and unaffected, but the other level nine Armor Master inside the illusion was visibly halted.

His footsteps stopped abruptly, his hands gripping his sabers, his expression revealing a hint of panic.

In that moment’s pause, the Armor Master who created the illusion raised his hand again.

Around him, numerous illusory figures flew out.

This was the tactic of the Sky Cloud Armor, creating ninety-nine phantom bodies.

Even if each phantom had only half the combat strength, their combined force was unimaginably strong.

“Over.” Someone below whispered.

Trapped in the illusion with so many phantoms attacking, not to mention someone at the same level, even a cultivator of a higher level would not be able to withstand it.

The cultivation and combat strength of the two level nine Armor Masters were comparable, but now the victory and defeat were so disparate, all that was displayed was the battle Armor Attribute Power.

Clearly, the black armor refined by Master Yun Ji had absolute control over the battle.

“As I said, Master Yun Ji is one of the Twelve Divine Masters of Heavenly Secret City, with unparalleled refining strength. How could he possibly be defeated by someone employing deception?”

“Hmph, ancient methods, without seeing the changes of the times, my lord.”

Ninety-nine phantoms howled out, converging their power and striking the Armor Master whose figure had paused.

At this time, the level nine Armor Master had clearly fallen into the illusion and had no means of defense whatsoever.

The outcome was already decided.

What a pity for a level nine Armor Master, needlessly losing his life.

“Boom”

Everyone watched as the level nine Armor Master, defenseless, was hit by dozens of fist shadows.

However, what happened after the hits was not what everyone expected; the level nine Armor Master did not collapse.

In everyone’s eyes, the light golden black armor slightly trembled and then turned into a golden light screen.

All the fist shadows that struck the light screen were repelled.

When all the phantoms retreated, the level nine Armor Master was completely unharmed!

“This, this, this has at least quintupled the defense!” someone exclaimed from below.

Without five times the defense, it would have been impossible to block these phantoms with half the opponent’s combat strength.

“Five times?” On the other side, someone’s eyes shone brightly as they whispered, “At least eight times defensive power.”

“With this defense alone, one could remain invincible.”

Invincible.

This Soaring Cloud Armor had sacrificed all offensive enhancements in order to increase defense.

This kind of defensive power was indeed among the finest in battle armors.

Below, Xun Chu Yun’s eyes grew even darker.

On the platform, Master Yun Ji’s expression changed, and then he snorted coldly, whispering, “No matter how strong the defense is, it’s just a living target”

He had not finished speaking when the level nine Armor Master who was lost in the illusion straightened his back.

But he had not seen through the illusion; his eyes still showed confusion.

Next to him, a slightly more ethereal body appeared.

Incarnation.

Another incarnation.

The instant this incarnation appeared, everyone’s eyes widened.

“At least seventy percent combat strength!”

“It’s not about the combat strength, the incarnation can’t be fooled by the illusion!”

On the platform, the incarnation moved, swinging his saber in one clean cut.

All phantoms in front of him shattered.

The half-strength phantoms stood no chance before the incarnation with seventy percent combat strength.

After shattering the phantoms in front of him, the incarnation did not rush forward but raised his hand and swung the saber in a returning arc, shattering all the phantoms around its own body.

Then its original body closed its eyes.

With the incarnation seeing through the illusion, it naturally woke up from the illusion; if it couldn’t break free from the illusion, then just close eyes.

Passing the command of the fight to the incarnation.

“Buzz”

Two sabered figures rushed out, crossing sabers, and slashed towards the level nine Armor Master who created the phantoms and illusion.

“Clang”

As the sabers came down, the Armor Master’s Sky Cloud Armor burst apart explosively.

The sabers rested on the shoulders of the level nine Armor Master, now pale-faced.

The first duel of the bet was over.
