Alone and Infinite

The muscles bulged high like steel, with only one obvious injury on the chest.

However, the injury is healing and disappearing quickly.

Clearly, Behemoth in this state also possesses powerful self-healing abilities.

These are the top ten in the arena?

Li Xia gripped the spear tightly. Unexpectedly, the huge ape-like monster did not give him a strong sense of oppression.

Five minutes.

"call--"

The hot breath, exhaled from the rapidly rising body temperature, condensed into a white mist.

Water vapor, carried by strong air currents, filled the gap left by the abruptly vanished figure.

To Behemoth's astonishment, Li Xia's figure appeared before them as if by teleportation.

What a great speed!

The distorting force field that enveloped his body was originally a bloodline ability of the Behemoth, and it became even more powerful after manifesting its true form.

"Roar!"

Behemoth unleashed its full power of bloodline ability, bringing its massive, pillar-like hands together and slamming them down on Li Xia's head.

At the same time, a faint, dark yellow halo rippled outwards from beneath their feet.

Li Xia felt the air around him become 'muddy,' as if he were in a swamp.

Every step forward becomes increasingly difficult.

As expected of a tank; this ability to restrict movement is really troublesome once you get close.

'Sizzle'

A faint blue flash of electricity appeared on the pitch-black gun body in the still night, followed by a sharp, piercing sound like a bird's cry.

A dazzling bolt of lightning exploded from Li Xia's hand, and at the same time, flames suddenly shot up behind him.

The flames spread out from both sides of the body, like a pair of huge fiery wings, and then closed up.

Completely enveloping Li Xia and Behemoth, a fierce wind arose and swirled around their bodies.

The blazing flames burned fiercely, and Behemoth felt as if all the hair on his body was curling up.

Force fields can distort tangible entities, but they cannot distort high temperatures at all; the Behemoth bloodline has extremely high resistance to natural elements.

However, the Behemoth bloodline, which is only 10% complete in development, is not suitable.

Within the fiery tornado of nearly 1500 degrees Celsius, lightning flashed, and Li Xia's true qi surged, covering the silent night, which was constantly bursting with lightning, with another layer of blazing white flames.

"do not fight!"

Behemoth waved his hand, and in just a moment, he felt like he was about to become completely dumbfounded.

He glanced nervously at Li Xia's spear, wondering what level of weapon it was.

Its attack power is terrifying; it can pierce through heavy armor with a defense level of 8 with ease, and it can also generate electricity.

Why did I use my ultimate move?

That last shot took away more than 20 points of health!

It almost stabbed my soul out of the water!

Without unleashing his ultimate move, Behemoth suspected he'd be stabbed to death in just two or three shots.

He decisively clicked "concede."

Li Xia put away his spear, feeling a little regretful. He wanted to try his full-force spear strike, combining wind, thunder, and fire, and using the spear's momentum to unleash its power.

The damage should be very high, but the reason it's "should" is mainly because it hasn't been tested.

"You are indeed different from others—"

Behemoth slowly shrank, shaking its head as the countdown ended, and said:

"The top few grandsons all run around in circles, each one more cunning than the last. You are the first one I have encountered who directly confronts me."

He waved his hand, somewhat dejected. The reason he couldn't advance was because there was a ninth player blocking his way, a natural counter to him. If he had a team, things would be different.

But without a team, they can only be bullied by the ninth team:

"Come on, help me teach those bastards in the top few a lesson, especially the ninth one!"

Li Xia smiled and said, "If we meet, we'll fight hard."

The two figures slowly disappeared, and when they reappeared, they were in the familiar preparation room.

Aowu and Heitan had been observing the whole game, and finally couldn't help but ask:

"Your Highness, we were just surrounded by a ring of fire, so we didn't see what happened inside. Why did they surrender?"

"Meow?"

Li Xia snapped out of her reverie and shook her head:

"Because we couldn't determine what kind of distorting force field the other side was, we wanted to try using high temperature to see if we could interfere with it, since high temperature can interfere with many kinds of force fields."

The same goes for Night Silence's Electricity; I just didn't expect Behemoth to launch it so directly.

And the throw was so clean and decisive, without even a struggle.

Without seeing specific panel information or damage warnings, you have to figure many things out on your own.

Comparing the two, Li Xia had a more direct understanding of how powerful the auxiliary function was.

A single damage indicator can reveal a massive amount of information!

"As for the question you asked, Black Charcoal?"

Li Xia thought about it for a moment, and Hei Tan felt that the top ten were nothing special, at least he didn't feel too much pressure.

In other words, Heitan thinks the top ten in the arena are a bit weak and don't live up to their reputation.

"Yes and no, mainly because the second tier is at a special juncture, and the apostles are beginning to gradually form their own system."

They have only just chosen their path; it is not yet perfect, and their system is incomplete.

Even their strengths and weaknesses are very pronounced; a well-rounded individual is impossible.

Even though I have my own shortcomings, they are almost negligible compared to others.

After a pause, Li Xia made his conclusion:

"I should be classified as fault-hardness now!"

As for balance, you will receive more challenging tasks, obtain more valuable rewards, and level up faster.

It's very likely that after a few worlds, I will have reached the fourth tier, while the apostles in these arenas are still in the lower to middle levels of the third tier.

Li Xia then looked at the notification that had just popped up, and he was now full of interest.

The top ten in the arena will receive rewards, but what exactly are those rewards?

[Congratulations, Executioner, you have entered the top ten of the Tier 2 Arena for the first time.]

[You have begun a special phase mission: The Road to Glory]

[You have obtained the stage reward: Top 10 in Competition (Tier 2)]

----------------------

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

Chapter 200: The Reward for Penetrating the Ninth Rank!

Li Xia's eyes lit up, and he first clicked on the special task for that phase.

Just one glance and my eyebrows involuntarily rose; it was indeed quite unique!

It's so special that it skips directly from levels 2 to 9!!

[Special Mission for This Phase: The Road to Glory]

Mission Objective 1: Achieve a top-ten ranking in each arena tier.

Task rewards: Completion progress is accumulated based on ranking.

Mission deadline: Final settlement of the ninth-tier arena

Completion Rewards:

1. Ultimate Honor Badge: Proof of Breakthrough (100%)

2. King's Honor Badge: Proof of Breakthrough (90%)

3. Master Honor Badge: Proof of Breakthrough (80%)

8. Brass Honor Badge: Proof of Breakthrough (30%)

9. Black Iron Honor Badge: Proof of Breakthrough (20%)

10. Faded Honor Badge: Proof of Breakthrough (10%)

[Current progress: 1%]

Li Xia tried tapping the Supreme Destiny Badge, and his eyes were immediately glued to it, unable to look away.

[Ultimate Honor Badge - Proof of Breakthrough]

【Origin: Hall of Light】

【quality:? ? ? 】

[Type: Honor-related consumable item]

[Effect: Using this badge, a ninth-tier apostle will have a 100% chance of breaking through the tier limit and will have a 100% chance of obtaining a ??? level primordial artifact.]

[Description: Only one person can enjoy this supreme honor; it is the reward and glory of light.]

No wonder the Temple of Light allows you to access the information on this badge.

A flatbread! This is a flatbread, a carrot dangled in front of a donkey!

Li Xia licked his lips, 100% certain he would break through to the ninth rank or higher!

And that original object that displays ? ? ?

What a terrifying attribute! He still remembered what Chaotuo had mentioned to him back then.

He must do everything in his power to compete for the 'Seed of Destiny of Life,' which is the item that will help him obtain the inheritance of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts.

According to the calculations of the Transcendent, an apostle who obtains the Seed of Origin Life has a 16.7% probability of breaking through to the ninth rank!

If a probability of only 16.7% is already worth fighting for, what about 100%?

"Your Highness, what is the reward?"

Aowu and Heitan, standing beside him, watched Li Xia remain motionless. This was a rare sight for His Highness, indicating that the reward must be extremely amazing.

I couldn't help but ask curiously.

Li Xia didn't say anything, but directly shared these in the team channel.

In just four or five seconds, a startled cry rang out, quite cultured indeed:

"Alas, what the hell is this???"

This is where Kuroko's advantage as a "country bumpkin" comes into play; Kuroko, who came from the derivative world, has no idea what this concept means.

"Your Highness, shouldn't we risk our lives to get our hands on this?"

Aowu had already come over. He and Li Xia both knew that in order to revive and transcend, they had to reach the ninth level or above.

"It's not that simple—"

Li Xia's head, which had been somewhat feverish from the shock, gradually calmed down. He looked at the current progress of 1%.

I already have a pretty good idea of ​​how to accumulate progress.

"Completion rate is awarded based on ranking in each arena tier. Tenth place earns 1% completion rate, and for each rank improvement, an additional 1% completion rate is awarded."

The first place winner in the arena receives 10% completion.
