Chapter 288: Dragnet Force, Greater Mastery

Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+

A tremendous number of black cannonb.a.l.l.s that were spreading out a sulfuric smell and yellow smoke were launched at Ji Ye densely.

Ji Ye had no intention of dodging those cannonb.a.l.l.s.

Firstly, if he were to dodge them, the few unconscious natives on the ground would be killed for sure.

Secondly, the palace had just been ruined, and the dispersing power of providence was regathering into a settlement core. If he were to disperse, the settlement core would be drowned by magma, and it would take him a lot of time to get it out.

He didn’t think that the enemy would give him a lot of time.

Therefore, Ji Ye’s choice was…

Pa!

To the girl’s surprise, he extended his right hand and casually grasped a magma cannonball that was aimed at his head.

After hitting Ji Ye’s palm, the magma cannonball, which should be very easy to explode considering what happened earlier, wasn’t broken at all but was steadily seized by Ji Ye.

It was definitely “picking a bomb with bare hands”.

This magma cannonball was much more powerful and dangerous than the Extraordinary Rank-3 Frost Metal Cannons earlier!

However, dozens of magma cannonb.a.l.l.s were flying at Ji Ye and the other natives. It wasn’t really strategic to just pick one of them.

Unless…

Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+

Ji Ye moved left and right in the next moment.

His arms waved quickly in midair so fast as if he had nine arms. The blurry shadows of his arms established a net along with his True Qi.

He was able to pick all the magma cannonb.a.l.l.s that flew towards him without missing any!

It was Greater Mastery of the Dragnet Force of the Ancient Tomb Sect!

Ji Ye learned a lot of martial arts from the Battlefield of Providence in the Xiangyang Battle. Most of the martial arts had been upgraded to “Perfect” in a way after being fused with his talent.

The Dragnet Force was the only one that was still Superior like before.

However, Ji Ye had gained Greater Mastery on this Superior martial art as he did on the Dragon-Subduing Strike. The sign of Greater Mastery on this art was to trap 81 sparrows with bare hands without hurting them so that they could only leap around him without being able to fly away!

The dozens of dangerous magma cannonb.a.l.l.s were all caught by Ji Ye’s bare hands. He then unleashed the ultimate Yin True Qi from the Yin and Yang Sutra and pressed all the cannonb.a.l.l.s into each other with a delicate technique.

In the end, they were all melted into a ma.s.sive magma ball that was more than one meter in diameter!

Following that, the nature of the True Qi in his hand changed again.

He exerted his strength with the Dragon-Subduing Strike using the toughest way instead of the gentlest way.

“Roar!”

Accompanied by a dragon roar, a tremendous amount of magma that contained high-temperature flames surged out of the ball into the vague shape of a dragon head.

Then, the dragon roared and dashed thirty meters leaving a long trail of yellow smoke behind.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

All the black cannonb.a.l.l.s on its way were destroyed and leveled!

It was Dragon Rages, another move of the Dragon-Subduing Strike!

[“You have killed a Magma Monster (Extraordinary Rank-3, Elite). EXP gained: 323. Honor gained: 3!”]

[“You have killed a Magma Monster (Extraordinary Rank-4, Elite). EXP gained…”]

[“You have killed a Magma Monster…”]

“Dragon Rages”, as the most destructive move in the Perfect-rated Dragon-Subduing Strike, was even more astonis.h.i.+ng than on the Battlefield of Providence when used by Ji Ye who was already at the peak of Extraordinary Rank-8.

Not only did it destroy the cannons, but the power inside the dragon head also destroyed the nucleus inside the black cannons that felt like fire seeds.

It killed more than ten Extraordinary Magma Monsters!

However, almost a hundred black cannonb.a.l.l.s could be seen in the magma, and they were far away from each other. It was absolutely impossible to destroy all of them with the Dragon-Subduing Strike.

Also, after more than ten Extraordinary Magma Monsters were killed, a cannon one kilometer away that was bigger than all the others was instantly aimed at Ji Ye.

Hum!

A magma cannonball that was more than two feet in diameter and as large as a small meteorite was thrown at the survivors with pale flames and raging yellow smoke.

“Huh?”

Ji Ye raised his eyebrows. Faced with the attack that was apparently more powerful, he didn’t choose to perform the Dragnet Force again but clenched his hand into a fist.

Hum!

When he punched the magma meteorite, the air around collapsed as if it had been pumped away. It was exactly the Hollow Bright Fist, Zhou Botong’s ultimate technique!

Pa!

The heat and power in the meteorite were far stronger than the cannonb.a.l.l.s earlier.

However, after hitting the Hollow Bright Fist, they lost all their power and were deviated to a wall in the palace.

Boom!

Immediately, red flames and yellow smoke that reeked of even more smelly sulfur burst out.

After the smoke dispersed, the wall in the area that was. .h.i.t vanished, and a fire was set up again.

“Huh? Extraordinary Rank-8?”

Ji Ye’s expression was solemn.

The attack was already as powerful as the True Qi attack of an Extraordinary Rank-8 human being!

Even he wasn’t able to bounce back the attack. He could only change its direction.

However, he wasn’t really surprised.

After all, the Musical House, as an Extraordinary Rank-5 settlement, had an Extraordinary Rank-8 player. Since the Magma Monsters’ settlement had already reached Extraordinary Rank-7, it was not strange that an Extraordinary Rank-8 alien was here.

There might be a lot more enemies who were in Extraordinary Rank-6 and Extraordinary Rank-7!

“It seems that I have to retreat…”

After realizing that, Ji Ye didn’t intend to fight anymore.

The palace had been fully covered by magma, and it was hundreds of meters away from the sh.o.r.eline.

Under such circ.u.mstances, he couldn’t make use of water currents even with his advantage of the Flood Dragon Bloodline.

Instead, the enemy had turned the whole ground into a magma environment, which was in their favor!

It was needless to say that, while the number of enemies was unclear in the magma, they were definitely not alone like Ji Ye.

Pa!

Ji Ye reached his hand and grasped the yellow core of providence that was gathered after the destruction of the Musical House.

“Close your eyes and don’t move!”

He roared, and the jade pendant on his waist spread out a lot of water vapors, which were transformed into a dragon cloud along with the Dragon Aura, carrying the kids and the unconscious pipa woman to the surface of the sea at a high speed!

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Although the area around the settlement core of the Musical House had been surrounded by magma, some places near the sea hadn’t been completely occupied. In particular, some rocks on higher terrains were still standing.

Therefore, Ji Ye’s way of retreat wasn’t entirely blocked.

Splash… Splash…

However, from the high sky, the magma around the palace that had been completely swallowed by flames boiled like a volcano eruption and sent out yellow smoke that looked like signals!

Clearly, Ji Ye’s robbery had fully enraged the aliens whose settlement had reached Extraordinary Rank-7.

After all, the human resources and equipment were of little significance to those peculiar aliens. The most important spoils of war to them was the human beings’ settlement core!

They were about to succeed after attacking for such a long time and losing so many compatriots when the “Master of Twin Dragon Island” appeared out of nowhere and rescued the pipa woman, who represented abundant Honor and EXP. He even looted the settlement core!

n.o.body could possibly let Ji Ye go after what he did to them!

Boom, boom, boom…

From the seething magma, abundant black cannons were popping up. The magma cannonb.a.l.l.s they threw out were almost blocking the sky!

However, Ji Ye was moving agilely, now to the left and now to the right.

He dodged all the magma cannonb.a.l.l.s as if he had eyes on his back.

Naturally, there were no eyes on his back. He was simply able to tell the trajectories of those cannonb.a.l.l.s by detecting temperature, noise, etc. with a Greater Mastery on “True Seer”!

When the cannonb.a.l.l.s were too dense for him to evade…

Boom, boom, boom!

The rocks that Ji Ye walked on would emanate yellow light and soar to the sky to block the incoming cannonb.a.l.l.s. It was exactly Rock Relocation, a technique he acquired through Fusion.

While controlling the Dragon Aura and moving agilely, he was still able to perform another technique. Clearly, Ji Ye was even better at Left and Right Inter-fighting than half a month earlier!

After they all reached the seaside, there was no suspense in the battle anymore.

“Roar!”

The white Dragon Aura dispersed into a misty ground ball.

It disappeared after the girl, who silently gritted her teeth even though there was fear in her eyes and tightly seized the kids who were younger than her as well as the unconscious pipa woman, dived into the sea.

Boom, boom, boom…

Even though the cannonb.a.l.l.s that fell into the sea after them were even more numerous than earlier, and their heat boiled the surface of the sea and raised a tremendous amount of steam, they could not resist the infinite seawater anymore. The attacks had to be aborted.
