"He's still alive..."
"Liuli, what did you say?" the old swordsman asked in confusion.
Kujo Ruri's voice trembled as she said:
"He's still alive!"
"Gen Shirakawa is still alive!!"
The elder opened his eyes, and the old swordsman's expression changed drastically.
"What did you say?!"
After confirming that what Kujo Ruri said was correct.
The entire senior leadership of the Lions Club was shaken and turned pale.
The huge, spacious Japanese-style house was now deathly silent, like an ice cave.
An uneasy and anxious feeling spread.
"How could this happen? That was a nuclear explosion! How could a mere Tier 6 possibly survive..."
"incredible."
"monster……"
"What should we do now?"
"Instead of killing him, he killed two ninth-tier elders and even lost the [Saint's Bone]. The losses are simply... sigh!"
"Instead of worrying about these things, we should be concerned about what will happen if he escapes from the Ruins World. Lord Lion Demon is still asleep. What if he comes seeking revenge? We..."
Everyone was uneasy, fearful, afraid, and regretful.
They were terrified that the young man, who was like a demon king, would suddenly barge into the place and start a massacre.
Some people are already discussing whether they should use a large teleportation array to leave the island.
"Calm down."
The Grand Elder spoke.
Everyone fell silent and turned to look.
"Even if he manages to avoid the nuclear explosion, he won't be able to escape from the Lion's Den ruins anytime soon."
"Losing the [Bone of the Saint] and sacrificing two elders was my mistake."
"But now is not the time to despair."
"Lord Shiki is about to be resurrected, and the three starter families will not tolerate him continuing to live. Perhaps this will be an opportunity."
The elderly swordsman: "You mean... cooperating with the three starter families?"
"That's right." The Grand Elder slowly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of narrow, gloomy, triangular eyes. "Even if he can come out, he will only appear here, which will be the best opportunity to ambush him."
"Go and spread the word, tell the three starter families about this."
"yes!"
……
soon.
The news reached the ears of the three starter families.
After confirming the intelligence was accurate, the three organizations immediately sent people to the Lions Club.
The Lions Club, located in the mountainous suburbs, immediately became the center of attention.
A quasi-king and seven ninth-tier grandmasters arrived, carrying three relics and various high-level equipment and items.
They waited patiently at the Lions Club, hoping Jiang Yuan would appear.
When the Paradise Pavilion learned of this, they wanted to contact Jiang Yuan, but they were unable to do so because of the small world of ruins.
And this wait.
That is, ten days.
period.
Some people couldn't resist and suggested going inside to take a look.
But whoever it was, once they entered the world of ruins, they immediately disappeared without a trace.
The victims ranged from seventh-tier to eighth-tier, and then to ninth-tier Grandmasters.
In the end, no one dared to go in anymore.
The ruins that originally belonged to the Lions Club have been transformed into something akin to a forbidden zone in this way.
……
Within ten days.
The Grand Prix also saw fierce competition, with the number of players rapidly reduced to 30.
After Jingu Ryuya killed Midori, he reached eight stars.
Musashi Hina has seven stars.
Kitaharaji Temple also reached seven stars.
Tetsuya Yamashita, a dark horse, reached four stars.
Among the top ten ranked individuals, the sorcerer Saito Renka is Jiang Yuan's next opponent.
At this moment, she followed Kitaharaji and arrived near the Lions Club.
And these.
Jiang Yuan knew nothing about it.
At this moment, he is in the Lion's Den ruins, wholeheartedly absorbing the power of the [Saint's Bone].
In this undisturbed place.
While unlocking the sealed power, he honed his martial arts skills and tempered his physique. When he was hungry or thirsty, he would eat some high-level spiritual materials and the meat of high-level ferocious beasts. He was so happy that he didn't even notice the passage of time.
If an outsider breaks in.
The opponent would then become the target of his martial arts practice, and be wiped out in an instant.
Under such intense hammering, the chains formed from blind and foolish energy crumbled one by one.
The power was gradually withdrawn.
Jiang Yuan's aura was also getting stronger and stronger.
He was engulfed by a dense golden light, and his vital energy turned into smoke.
The blazing black and red flames covered the nuclear crater, turning it into a sea of fire.
A barrage of lightning bolts crashed down from the sky.
The elements of the entire ruins world are in complete chaos!
……
Day 17.
The situation has changed.
With the eager anticipation of Lions Club members.
The Lion King, Lord Lion Demon, has awakened from his slumber!
Unlike the fair-skinned, half-male, half-female quasi-king of the Jingu family, who wore a snow-white Jingu robe, and was akin to a male.
The Lion King of the Lion Society, Shatuo-in Shiki, has thick, long black hair like a lion, is three meters tall, and has bulging muscles, making him extremely burly.
Upon waking and hearing everything, he was furious and the first thing he did was to open the Lion's Den ruins.
"You bunch of good-for-nothings actually let the [Bone of the Saint] go missing!!"
"Just a mere sixth-tier cultivator? I'll see just how strong that kid really is!!"
"There's absolutely no need for people like you to be here."
"Watch me kill him on the spot!!"
With the opening of the Lion Cave ruins.
A massive spatial rift appeared before everyone, and an intense heat wave swept over them.
Lord Lion Demon's voice was like thunder.
"Hey kid, get out here! Don't cower in there like a coward!!"
There was no response for a long time.
Lion Demon frowned.
"Do I have to go in and drag you out?!"
Under the tense gaze of everyone.
A soft laugh came from the spatial rift.
"Useless? Who are you talking about?"
A figure slowly emerged from it.
Looking at that figure.
Kitaharaji narrowed his eyes slightly.
Saito Renka, standing beside him, looked solemn, her palms sweating.
He is... Gen Shirakawa!
"Gurgle..."
Many people swallowed hard.
This was the first time they had ever seen the legendary tyrant in person.
The boy before them had silver hair and wore black clothes. He was exceptionally handsome, with a katana hanging at his waist. His eyes were closed, and there were still traces of lightning around him.
He appears to have restrained his aura and does not resemble a tyrant at all, creating a striking contrast.
But what he did was utterly brutal!
"Two quasi-kings and nine ninth-tier martial artists, that's a decent lineup. Looks like they've made ample preparations..."
Jiang Yuan spoke slowly.
Whoosh!
Several layers of spatial barriers rose up around the area, enveloping the mountain region.
"boom!"
Shen Gong Tongming took a step forward, and the pressure of a quasi-king crushed Jiang Yuan. Countless crystal-clear talismans flew out and floated in mid-air.
"You're Shirakawa Gen?! Heh, you look rather frail, but your strength is quite impressive." Lion Demon crossed his arms, chin held high, his expression arrogant.
"Unfortunately, we took the wrong path."
"I'll give you a chance. Hand over the [Bone of the Saint], and I might refrain from taking action."
"Just a potential king, I've killed plenty of people like that before. How dare you speak to me like that?"
Jiang Yuan opened his eyes, his blazing golden pupils shining brightly, like lightning crackling.
"boom!!!"
An invincible will and pressure, mixed with terrifying killing intent, surged out and spread out from Jiang Yuan as the center!
With the blessing of the title "King Slayer," it almost solidified, instantly changing the color of the heavens and earth, with countless crimson lightning bolts surging and exploding!
Jingu Hitomi and Shiki's expressions changed instantly!
"You don't even have a single King-level expert, yet you dare to try and kill me?"
Jiang Yuan strode forward calmly, a two-meter-long blood-red spear appearing in his right hand.
"In times without heroes, even a mere nobody can rise to fame."
