Unfortunately, this time, he guessed wrong.
It was true that the Nine Tribulations Tower had nine layers.
However, the guardians within the tower were somewhat unfathomable in strength.
If he relied solely on his strength to evade their attacks, he might have had some idea.
But his opponent moved like a ghost.
Each attempt to strike again was futile.
“Focus!” The voice behind the mask suddenly became stern. As Jian Wushuang attacked again, the opponent once more evaded effortlessly, not only dodging the strike but also delivering a heavy blow to Jian Wushuang’s head in return.
Jian Wushuang’s vision darkened, nearly causing him to black out.
Though he wasn’t injured, neither his Origin Source nor his divine power had changed, but that blow just now left him with an indescribable pain.
It felt like an adult punishing a child.
Clutching the back of his head, Jian Wushuang looked towards the masked figure, who had already retreated far away, filled with utter fury.
It was a disgrace!
“Ah!!!”
His hands clenched into fists, a red aura bursting from within him.
“Ha!”
The power of the Beast God surged forth.
With double the power of the Beast God, his divine power soared to 500,000.
At that moment, he became serious.
Without directly attacking, he crossed his arms, and behind him, figures began to emerge.
Origin Source Avatars!
Each avatar emitted the same aura.
But their strengths varied.
However, their differing strengths were indiscernible to others.
He refused to believe his opponent could break through this.
Here and now, he would fight like this!
Eventually, one of the avatars would confront the opponent.
Although the avatars were significantly weaker in power, dealing with an opponent like the masked figure, who possessed 200,000 divine power, was still manageable.
“Tsk tsk, you’d better hope I don’t get my hands on you!” Jian Wushuang sneered.
Several figures began to flicker.
Those were afterimages.
Meanwhile, his true self had already appeared before the opponent.
74 avatars instantly surrounded the masked figure.
They attacked together, while Jian Wushuang’s true self watched the opponent’s every move.
He wanted to see how the other party had dodged.
Then he would take the opportunity to strike.
Avoiding 74 avatars while also keeping an eye on his true self.
There was simply no way to avoid it.
The space here was very confined.
There wasn’t enough room for his footwork to maneuver.
But the next moment, he was dumbfounded.
Almost every time the avatars attacked, it was flawless, but the masked figure used a movement technique he couldn’t comprehend, swiftly dodging.
None of the avatars could even touch the opponent.
And from a distance, he felt as if the space had shrunk to inches.
It seemed like the area had widened.
His tactic of overwhelming with sheer numbers was no longer effective.
He could only rely on his true self to strike.
500,000 units of divine power, this was the threshold of the Fifth Tribulation.
Combined with the ambush.
He refused to believe it.
Gathering energy in his hands, condensing it into a sphere.
Directly throwing it out, using the burst of energy to cover his own approach, quickly closing in behind the opponent, he thrust out with a knife hand, clearly hitting, but Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but feel helpless.
Swish!
The figure struck in front of him flickered for a moment and then disappeared.
It was an afterimage left by the movement technique.
Even if his eyesight was poor, his hands could feel it, striking the air.
“Not bad, to be able to keep up with my afterimage so quickly, you still have tricks up your sleeve, use them all!” The masked figure, hands behind his back, yawned.
Jian Wushuang, upon hearing this, grew even more infuriated.
Especially seeing the casual demeanor.
Clearly, he was being looked down upon.
When had he ever endured such indignation?
And yet the opponent’s strength was clearly much weaker than his.
“If you’re brave, stop dodging!”
Jian Wushuang was clearly somewhat disheartened. As soon as he spoke, he regretted it.
Once again, in an unbelievable manner, the masked figure appeared in front of him.
Jian Wushuang threw a punch, hitting nothing but air.
Before he could attack again, he felt a twisting sensation in his abdomen, causing his entire body to convulse.
This time, the masked figure had truly struck.
Not only did he strike, but he also returned a punch, hitting Jian Wushuang in the abdomen.
The pain caused cold sweat to form on Jian Wushuang’s forehead.
Ridiculous!
But he refused to believe it.
500,000 divine power wasn’t enough.
Then make it 600,000.
He had never lost to the same level before, especially since the opponent’s power wasn’t on the same level as his.
How could he lose to them?
A being neither human nor ghost.
The power of the Beast God, quadrupled, directly increased his divine power by 200,000.
His entire body’s divine power reached 600,000.
This could be considered a small peak for him.
Once again, he made a move, but it was dodged again.
However, this time, he didn’t use his doppelgänger, nor did he ambush; he struck the opponent’s afterimage.
The masked figure showed some differences and exclaimed, “You actually still hide your strength. What other cards do you have? Use them quickly. Your time is running out!”
“Time is running out?” Jian Wushuang frowned.
He didn’t want to engage in meaningless attacks anymore.
The power of the Beast God disappeared in an instant.
What did the opponent mean by saying time was running out?
Could it be that if he couldn’t defeat the opponent, he would be stuck here forever?
“Yes, I’ll only give you half an hour. If you can’t defeat me, you’ll need to wait for a year before coming back. Time here flows at a normal rate, so your time acceleration won’t work!” The masked figure also took the time to explain the time flow.
Jian Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief.
A chance to challenge once a year!
But in just one year, how could he make any progress?
Even if he could accelerate time outside, he couldn’t improve much.
Moreover, in a year, it would already be the Sacred Assembly.
He wouldn’t have time to come back to this Nine Tribulation Tower.
The opponent was so mysterious, especially their dodging technique. If he could learn it…
Then he would be invincible.
By then, even the Universe Master at the Sixth Tribulation wouldn’t scare him.
He wondered what benefits defeating the opponent would bring.
Of course, it would be best if the opponent taught him that move.
He took the opportunity to inquire, “You haven’t said, what’s the benefit of defeating you? Otherwise, wouldn’t I have worked in vain?”
“You’re right, defeating me is indeed futile. As for the benefit, it’s the achievement you gain at the moment of defeating me!” The masked figure replied calmly.
Jian Wushuang almost spat blood!
What did it mean to gain achievement at the moment of defeating him?
Could it be that the opponent was the strongest in spacetime, and defeating him would make oneself invincible?
Too ridiculous.
“If you don’t believe it, you’re welcome to try!” The masked individual was confident in themselves.
Jian Wushuang coldly declared, “Then I will try!”
Finishing his words, his aura suddenly turned blue.
“Eternal Ancient Transformation!”
The blue Jian Wushuang might not have the formidable 600,000 divine power, as he was still an Emperor and his Origin Source hadn’t undergone significant changes, nor had his enhancements been as exaggerated as the divine power.
Even when he reached the level of Universe Master, his essence remained the strongest.
However, there was a certain confidence within him that made him feel more assured in his blue form.
Crucially, by employing the Eternal Ancient Transformation, he could enhance his Sword Dao, enabling him to execute the Starry Sky Chronicles.
He refused to believe that the opponent could evade his Starry Sky Chronicles.
