My slightest action was the system's limit.

Chapter 324 Congratulations! Passed (Three-in-One, please follow for more)
In the trial space.

The ground was a scene of devastation.

Here, it's as if a tremendous battle has just taken place, with countless deep pits appearing on the ground, each thousands of meters wide.

The land within a radius of hundreds of miles was completely leveled.

A dazzling figure stood between heaven and earth, exuding a powerful aura.

"Level 92".

“It’s over.” Jiang Ye gripped his spear, his eyes sharp as an eagle’s, though a hint of weariness lingered deep within them.

A sustained high-intensity battle.

Jiang Ye also felt a little tired.

With Jiang Ye's current level of skill, he wouldn't feel much fatigue even if he didn't rest for a whole year.

But combat is different.

Especially when fighting against opponents of higher levels, one must mobilize all one's energy and spirit, which consumes an enormous amount of energy.

"Eno."

"Do you want to rest for a bit?" Bai Gui's voice rang out, her voice trembling slightly.

"Rest?" Jiang Ye nodded. "I'm planning to take a good rest."

Call ~
Jiang Ye's figure slowly descended to the ground.

"Senior Bai Gui, what's wrong?" Jiang Ye asked, noticing the tremor in the other's voice.

"fine."

"I'm just surprised," Bai Gui couldn't help but say, "You can now kill even a fifth-level expert so easily?"

That's right!

Just now,

Under Bai Gui's witness, Jiang Ye, like a god of death, killed dozens of fifth-level experts in succession.

That's a level 5 Breakthrough expert!
A group of level 5 breakthroughs were completely slaughtered by a level 4 breakthrough late-game player?
If I told anyone, who would believe me?
Jiang Ye smiled and shook his head when he heard Bai Gui's words.

"easy?"

"It only looks easy," Jiang Ye sighed. "Starting from level eighty, the enemies become increasingly difficult to deal with."

In the 80th level, the first five-times-breakthrough powerhouse appeared.

Late stage of fourth ascension, facing off against fifth ascension?
There is almost no chance of winning!

Not to mention that besides that fifth-level expert, there are dozens of fourth-level peak experts.

Therefore, Jiang Ye had no choice but to unseal his 'expansion' ability, causing his strength to surge instantly.

That's how they managed to wipe out so many enemies.

"By the time I reached the 90th level, half of the enemies were already at the fifth level of breakthrough," Jiang Ye recalled. "I barely managed to pass the level by activating the Crimson Twilight Domain."

[Crimson Twilight Domain: Within one minute, for every person you kill, all your attributes will increase by up to 10%, and the effect will last until the end of the battle.]

This ability can be considered Jiang Ye's trump card.

When he uses this move, it's a true display of his full power.

"We're almost at our limit."

"I'm already feeling the strain on levels 91 and 92," Jiang Ye muttered to himself. "Even with my full power, the enemies are extremely difficult to kill."

Just like now.

Jiang Ye fought fiercely with dozens of terrifying experts for several minutes. More than half of these experts were at the early stage of the Fifth Breakthrough, the top level of the Fifth Breakthrough Dao Bone!

Too hard to kill.

Even if it were any other fifth-level powerhouse, they would inevitably perish in the face of such a siege.

But Jiang Ye? He's only at the fourth level of breakthrough.

It was only with the combined effects of numerous buffs, such as the Martial Saint Domain, the Blood Sea Domain, and the Crimson Twilight Domain, that they managed to defeat him with great difficulty.

"It took several minutes of fierce fighting to barely kill the enemy," Jiang Ye sighed.

"..." Bai Gui couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw Jiang Ye's serious expression.

"Jiang Ye, you're only at the late stage of the fourth breakthrough."

“Logically, there should be a huge gap between them and those at the fifth level of breakthrough.” Bai Gui couldn’t help but say, “You’ve already spent several minutes killing all those fifth-level breakthrough experts, and you still think it’s too slow?”

It should be noted that even battles between five-stage powerhouses are often protracted.

It's not uncommon for a battle to last for several hours.

But what about Jiang Ye?

It's only been a few minutes, and he's already complaining it's too slow?
If those five-fold alien race members who had died heard these words, they would probably be so angry that they would vomit blood and faint again.

“Several minutes is indeed a long time for me,” Jiang Ye said, shaking his head slightly.

These few minutes are different from before.

Previously, Jiang Ye had deliberately suppressed his strength in order to hone his skills, which is why he fought the enemy for several hours.

This time, however, he did not suppress himself, but fought for several minutes in a state of full power.

These few minutes of exertion were countless times more intense than the previous hours-long battle.

"but."

“Senior Bai Gui is right,” Jiang Ye thought to himself. “My ability to fight beyond my level is already amazing enough, so there’s no need to ask for too much.”

The pursuit of perfection excessively will prevent you from achieving it.

The essence of martial arts lies in freedom!
Only when one's thoughts are clear and unfettered can one be truly free and unrestrained.

"Can we continue?" Jiang Ye glanced at the panel.

[Expanding Territories: When conquering other races, within a 100-meter radius centered on you, all attributes of you and your teammates will increase by 30% (+1710%).]

This ability to expand territory has increased Jiang Ye's combat power by nearly twenty times.

Otherwise, he would never have been able to hold on until now.

"continue."

"Let's see if we can aim for something higher." A glint flashed in Jiang Ye's eyes: "While ensuring our own safety, let's try to reach a higher level."

According to Chen Zilu, the highest level the Chen family ever reached was only around seventy.

Jiang Ye had already broken this record, so there was no pressure on his shoulders.

but!

Now that he had already made it to the ninetieth level, Jiang Ye naturally wanted to go and see even higher.

"Regulate your breathing." Jiang Ye sat cross-legged, closed his eyes to rest, and quickly adjusted his state.

A quarter of an hour later.

Jiang Ye suddenly opened his eyes.

"set off!"

"Next level." Jiang Ye gripped his spear, rose from the ground, and flew toward the next ancient star.

He's extremely fast.

In just a few minutes, it soared into the sky and arrived at the next trial location.

Jiang Ye embarks on his journey to conquer the challenges once again.

Level 93.

Jiang Ye encountered more than 30 experts at the early stage of the fifth breakthrough, ten of whom were at the level of invincible Dao Bone!
This battle was even more difficult than before.

Jiang Ye used a variety of methods, and it took him a quarter of an hour to completely eliminate the enemy.

Level 94.

This level has even more experts at the fifth level of breakthrough, and fifteen of them are at the Invincible Dao Bone level.

Jiang Ye fought a difficult battle, which lasted for half an hour before finally ending the fight.

Level 95.

Nearly 80% of the enemies were level 5 experts, and more than 50% of them had invincible Dao bones!
Jiang Ye fought fiercely for over an hour before finally defeating the enemy, though he himself sustained minor injuries.

Level 96!
Level 97!
Level 98!
Jiang Ye charged through the obstacles, invincible in his path.

at last!

Level 99.

Only one more level remains to be reached in the final stage of the Starry Sky Hundred Refinements.

"Seventy powerful alien warriors."

"All of them are at the early stage of the fifth breakthrough?" Jiang Ye glanced around and said, "They are all at the level of invincible Dao bone."

Just one second.

Jiang Ye realized that what followed would inevitably be an extremely difficult battle.

"Then let's fight."

"Kill!" Jiang Ye gripped his spear tightly and immediately set off, charging towards the numerous powerful alien warriors.

no doubt.

This battle will undoubtedly be the most arduous battle in Jiangye's history.

At the start of the battle, Jiang Ye was forced to retreat steadily under the siege of dozens of fifth-level experts.

Even the Martial Saint Domain and the Blood Sea Domain could not create a suppressive situation.

Seventy experts who have reached the fifth level of breakthrough!
There are too many.

Most importantly, they are all top geniuses at the Invincible Dao Bone level, which is different from before. In the previous levels, not all of them were Invincible Dao Bone level.

Jiang Ye felt immense pressure.

'Domain—Ten Thousand Tides!'

'Domain—All Things!'

In an instant, two tangible fluctuations erupted from Jiang Ye's body.

Wanchao Domain!

Myriad Spear Domain!

This is the first time Jiang Ye has revealed these two domains; they are his last trump card!
"Kill!" Jiang Ye roared, his voice forming a tangible wave that surged and shook the surrounding heaven and earth.

Within the realm of myriad tides, Jiang Ye's voice carries the divine essence of heaven and earth, capable of piercing the soul.

This field, combined with the 'Breaking Saint Eye' effect, will cause even many level-five powerhouses to lose their focus for a moment.

The Myriad Manifestations Spear Domain can ignore physical defense and inflict high amounts of true damage.

This technique, combined with the Martial Saint Domain and the Blood Sea Domain, represents Jiang Ye's ultimate combat power.

In addition, with the ability to 'expand territory', the attribute increase has exceeded 2000%.

It can be said.

At this moment, Jiang Ye's combat power has reached an unprecedented peak!

"Wow!"

Jiang Ye's eyes were icy cold as he gripped his spear tightly and swept it horizontally.

"Boom!"

The tip of the spear grazed past!

A beam of spear light swept across the entire world, dazzling and unparalleled. With the enhancement of an invisible domain, this spear strike became terrifying to the extreme.

The heavens and earth seemed to tremble!

Many powerful alien beings are still in a daze due to the influence of the 'Ten Thousand Tides Domain' and the 'Breaking Saint Eye'.

When they came to their senses, they saw a terrifying spear beam that seemed to cleave the heavens and earth descending upon them.

"Pfft~ Pfft!"

In the blink of an eye

This single shot tore apart the bodies of seven or eight level-five experts, and the invisible shockwave instantly turned their remains into nothingness.

The divine essence of annihilation!

Having been tempered by countless battles, Jiang Ye's mastery of marksmanship has become increasingly refined.

A face-to-face meeting.

They killed seven or eight level-five experts.

Such combat power surprised even Bai Gui.

But the battle is far from over.

After regaining their senses, the remaining level-five experts roared and unleashed terrifying killing moves.

Not only that.

They were subtly forming a formation, intending to surround and kill Jiang Ye here.

Dozens of invincible Dao Bone level Fifth Break powerhouses! Once they form a great formation, the combat power they unleash will be absolutely terrifying.

Without a doubt, what follows will be an extremely difficult and protracted war of attrition.

"Level 99."

"Oh my God!"

"This is insane." Outside, many members of the Chen family stared intently at the projected image.

From level 70 to level 90.

Many of the Chen family's powerful members, who were initially shocked and stunned, gradually became numb as time went by.

Today, there is another complex emotion in their eyes.

The Starry Sky Trials have never seen anyone truly reach the hundredth level.

And today!
They may witness the birth of this history.

Will Jiang Ye succeed?

"Can he really get to that point?"

"No one has ever reached the hundredth level." Elders such as Chen Fang and Chen Yuan also stared intently at the screen.

They were also incredibly nervous and excited.

Under the gaze of many people.

Time passed by minute by minute.

One hour.

two hours.

three hours.

Before you know it, a whole day has passed.

Just when everyone was feeling a bit tired.

suddenly.

The projected image, suspended in mid-air, finally moved. [Jiang Ye, Level 100]

The entire world fell silent for a moment.

Just seconds later.

"Success!"

"Jiang Ye succeeded! He actually made it past the hundredth level!!"

"Fuck!!"

"This is outrageous! Am I dreaming?" The Chen family members were in an uproar, their faces filled with shock.

One hundred levels.

Jiang Ye has actually made it to the 100th level, the final level!
unprecedented!

"Jiang Ye?"

"Is it really that strong?" Chen Jue was utterly shocked.

Level 100, what does that even mean?

Even with extraordinary talent, it's impossible to do that!
"I was actually jealous of such a genius before," Chen Jue thought bitterly. "How foolish of me."

Previously, he had been dissatisfied because Jiang Ye had taken his spot.

Some even secretly disagreed with their ancestor's decision.

but now?
Thinking back on his previous attitude, Chen Jue couldn't help but feel a wave of fear. Fortunately, he didn't say it to people's faces, otherwise he would be even more desperate now.

"Really?"

"Jiang Ye did it?" Chen Jiuxuan also felt a wave of dizziness.

The scene before him made him feel even more incredulous.

"Don't worry."

"It's only reached level one hundred," Chen Jiuxuan thought to himself. "Whether he can pass or not depends on his performance next."

The 100th level, as the final level of the Starry Sky Hundred Refinements, is definitely extremely difficult.

"Ancestor!"

"How difficult is the hundredth level?" Chen Yuan couldn't help but ask, this was the first time he had asked the ancestor.

There is no other reason.

Because right now, no one wants Jiang Ye to get through this hurdle more than he does.

If Jiang Ye succeeds, it will be a historic achievement for the entire Chen family.

As the father-in-law, he felt even more honored.

"How difficult is it?" Chen Jiuxuan glanced at him.

I've never even tried it, how would I know!
“Starting from the seventieth level,” Chen Jiuxuan said carefully, “you will encounter a powerhouse who is a minor realm above you and has the same talent.”

"Based on the pattern that the difficulty increases dramatically every ten levels."

“The hundredth level is at least three levels higher than the seventieth level,” Chen Jiuxuan said.

Chen Yuan and the other elders nodded slightly.

indeed so!

In the Starry Sky Trials, the difficulty increases dramatically with every ten trials.

Chen Zilu, for example, stopped at level 69; taking another step forward would be extremely difficult.

"According to Jiang Ye's level."

"The hundredth level," Chen Jiuxuan said carefully, "He might encounter a fifth-stage breakthrough expert."

"Early stage of the fifth breakthrough?" Many elders of the Chen family couldn't help but hold their breath.

Jiang Ye is only at the late stage of the fourth breakthrough!
If you encounter a near-five-times-breakthrough opponent, there is still a sliver of a chance to win.

Early stage of the fifth breakthrough? The gap is too big; there's no hope at all.

"of course."

"All of the above is based on the premise of normal difficulty," Chen Jiuxuan added. "If Jiang Ye had triggered nightmare difficulty, the enemies he would have encountered in level 100 would be far more than those in the early stages of level 5 breakthrough."

Chen Fang, Chen Yuan, and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

Then, everyone shook their heads.

"It's definitely not nightmare difficulty."

"Even on normal difficulty, it's already incredibly impressive that Jiang Ye has reached this point. Nightmare difficulty? Impossible."

"Absolutely impossible." The elders were remarkably in agreement.

Even Chen Jiuxuan nodded slightly.

"It's indeed unlikely." Chen Jiuxuan sighed inwardly, he had to admit that he had misjudged it before.

It should be noted that even he...

Even on Nightmare difficulty, I only made it to level 30.

Jiang Ye has already reached the 100th level, so this performance is definitely not a nightmare difficulty level.

"Ancestor."

"Do you think Jiang Ye can pass the hundredth level?" Chen Fang couldn't help but ask, as he was also very concerned.

"It's hard to say." Chen Jiuxuan shook his head and said, "If it's just a fifth-level expert, then it's easier to say."

"But if multiple fifth-level breakthroughs occur, it will be difficult for Jiang Ye to win, given his current level."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Jiang Ye is only at the late stage of the fourth breakthrough.

"It doesn't matter."

“Let’s keep watching,” Chen Jiuxuan said. “It’ll be over in the next couple of days.”

"Regardless of whether Jiang Ye passes this test or not."

“He will undoubtedly gain unimaginable benefits from the Starry Sky Hundred Refinements,” Chen Jiuxuan said leisurely.

Upon hearing this, the elders couldn't help but feel a little envious.

I've made it to level 100!
How much benefit must they have received? It's absolutely unimaginable.

"Jiang Ye." Chen Zilu clenched her white fists, her peach blossom eyes filled with anticipation.

She had a vague premonition.

When Jiang Ye emerges, he will surely surprise everyone.

While everyone outside eagerly awaited the news.

In the trial space, Jiang Ye found himself in an unprecedented crisis.

Level 100.

"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!"

Jiang Ye roared continuously, charging forward with his gun, his entire being filled with terrifying killing intent.

He was going through a fierce battle, and his dark armor was shattered into countless fragments.

Jiang Ye's body was covered with countless wounds, some so deep that the bone was visible, making him look incredibly miserable.

And the reason for all of this.

Just because in front of them stood a figure between heaven and earth, a figure with a profound and incomparably powerful aura.

Mid-stage of the fifth breakthrough!!
"Whoosh!" Jiang Ye fired his gun with a thunderous roar, the spear light flashing like lightning, rushing towards that figure.

But the next moment.

The mid-stage fifth-stage expert raised his longsword and unleashed a strike.

"Boom!"

An incredibly terrifying collision.

Jiang Ye felt an overwhelming force sweep over him, sending him flying backward. With a "bang," he crashed into the ground like a meteorite.

"This is the twentieth time."

Jiang Ye got up from the ground and stared at the figure in the sky.

This was his twentieth attack. Without exception, all twenty were easily blocked by the opponent.

"A mid-stage fifth-level breakthrough, truly difficult to kill," Jiang Ye sighed inwardly.

no solution anymore.

On the ninety-ninth level, he had already revealed all his trump cards and fought for a whole day before finally passing it.

Now that we've entered the hundredth level, the difficulty has skyrocketed.

Apart from the seventy early-stage fifth-level powerhouses.

Furthermore, a mid-stage fifth-stage powerhouse is also present to oversee the operation!
“One mid-stage Fifth Breakthrough expert can be worth dozens of early-stage Fifth Breakthrough experts.” Jiang Ye thought to himself, “This is a qualitative difference.”

This does not mean that the mid-stage of the fifth breakthrough is dozens of times stronger than the early stage of the fifth breakthrough.

The actual difference is only a few times.

However, in actual combat, there are huge differences between the two in terms of life strength, skill level, and combat prowess.

A mid-stage fifth-stage cultivator can easily kill dozens of early-stage fifth-stage cultivators.

"We're out of options."

"Give up," Jiang Ye sighed inwardly, feeling unwilling to accept it.

Just one more step and I'll pass the hundredth level and successfully complete all the trials.

Anyone would find it hard to give up.

Jiang Ye did the same, so he unleashed his full power twenty times, revealing all his trump cards, all in an attempt to find a glimmer of hope.

Unfortunately, the difference in their levels of understanding was too great!
Even after playing all their cards, they couldn't shake their opponent in the slightest.

Jiang Ye knew in his heart that if he continued to fight, he might risk his life.

"Give up the trial!" Jiang Ye thought to himself.

next moment.

"Whoosh!" An invisible energy enveloped Jiang Ye, and with a flash of light, his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

"Want to escape?"

The mid-stage fifth-level expert snorted coldly and was about to chase after him.

But the next moment, his expression froze.

"what's the situation?"

"Where is he?" The alien expert was bewildered.

In his perception, Jiang Ye seemed to have vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

Even he couldn't detect the slightest trace.

Not only him, but also the dozens of early-stage fifth-level powerhouses were equally stunned.

How could they have allowed their opponent to escape even under such a tight net?
In a void space.

boom!
Jiang Ye's figure landed with a bang. He turned his head and saw that there was nothingness all around him, and the space was extremely empty.

It was the same void space that we arrived at when we entered the Starry Sky Hundred Refinements.

"ended."

"What a pity," Jiang Ye sighed, "We couldn't get past the final hurdle."

"There's no need to feel sorry," Bai Gui's voice rang out. "Your performance has already exceeded my expectations."

“But I don’t think it’s enough.” Jiang Ye shook his head and said, “I didn’t get a perfect clear.”

If he only makes it to level 90 and then can't continue, it's not a big deal.

But he's already made it to level 99!

Only one more hurdle to overcome!
It's impossible not to feel regret.

"Why force it?" Bai Gui shook his head and said, "There is nothing perfect in this world."

“Pursuing these things too much will cloud your judgment.”

“That’s true.” Jiang Ye nodded in agreement.

Martial arts are unrestricted!

If he pursues a perfect completion of the game too much, he will end up doing something inferior.

do not forget.

Reaching level 99 is an unimaginable achievement.

"In fact."

"It takes great determination to give up decisively at that time," Bai Gui exclaimed. "I am very pleased that you were able to do that."

"With the mid-stage of the fifth breakthrough in place, I have no choice but to give up." Jiang Ye shook his head and smiled.

At that time, he felt a sense of impending death.

At Jiang Ye's level, martial arts intuition is often very accurate, and at times, intuition can even play a crucial role.

In combat, predicting the opponent's attack trajectory and even their next move relies on intuition.

Jiang Ye's intuition told him that if he continued fighting, he would surely die!
That is precisely why Jiang Ye made such a decisive decision.

"He's already this powerful at the mid-stage of the Fifth Breakthrough Realm," Jiang Ye thought to himself. "And this is only at the Invincible Dao Bone level."

"What if it's someone with extraordinary talent?"

"Just how strong is Zhou Xingkong?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Ye couldn't help but feel a heavy pressure.

He is still a long way from achieving the fifth breakthrough.

Zhou Xingkong has now broken through to the late stage of the fifth level, and will only become stronger in half a year. Jiang Ye still has a long way to go if he wants to defeat him.

Just as Jiang Ye was pondering this.

suddenly.

Congratulations! You have passed the ninety-ninth trial of the Starry Sky Hundred Refinements.

A faint subtitle appeared.

Followed by.

"Rumble~" A faint tremor came from this void space.

The tremors grew stronger and stronger. At first, they were barely audible, but after a few seconds, they became deafening.

soon.

The entire void seemed to be trembling!

Visible to the naked eye, a vast expanse of colorful starlight surged in from all directions, sweeping towards Jiangye.

(End of this chapter)
