Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 83 Elite Passage

Just as Jiang Lan was getting anxious, the ceiling suddenly opened, and ten times more crystal ropes than before came crashing down on him.

Holy crap!

This time, the rope was many times faster than before, and it arrived in front of Jiang Lan in an instant.

He reacted instantly, arcs of electricity flashing on the blade of his halberd as he swung it fiercely at the ropes.

"Bang!"

With the same force as before, Jiang Lan's attack had little effect this time.

The reason is simple: there were just too many ropes hanging down this time.

Even though he managed to deflect nearly half of the rope with his attack, the remaining half still carried the force of tearing through the air and frantically wrapped around Jiang Lan.

The entire hall was almost entirely covered with ropes, leaving Jiang Lan with nowhere to retreat.

"Whoosh whoosh-"

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Lan's body was wrapped with dozens of ropes, completely encased.

Jiang Lan felt as if she had been plunged into darkness, unaware of what was happening outside.

But he could sense that the ropes were only meant to bind him and not to harm him.

So he simply stopped struggling.

After about a minute, Jiang Lan felt his body suddenly relax as all the crystal ropes detached from him, putting him back on the ground.

The crystal ropes quickly gathered and flew towards the dome of the hall.

"XXXXX, XXXXXX..."

A language Jiang Lan couldn't understand came from all over the hall and reached his ears.

Jiang Lan raised her wrist, and the communication watch on her wrist had already translated the previous message in real time.

"Congratulations! Your brain span is 36, which is greater than 18. You are qualified to enter the 'Elite Channel' of this trial. The Elite Channel is being opened for the first time in five thousand years. Please wait patiently for 15 minutes."

Jiang Lan looked around again and breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought I was going to be stuck in this godforsaken place.

The entrance he came from had long since disappeared. If he was really trapped in this godforsaken place, he really didn't have any good way to get out.

Silence returned to the surroundings.

Time ticked by, and just as Jiang Lan was getting impatient, a mechanical sound came from the wall of the hall in front of her.

Along with the sound of mechanical movement, there was also a language that Jiang Lan couldn't understand.

"XXX, XXXXX".

Jiang Lan raised her wrist, and the translation software automatically translated.

"The elite channel is now open. Please enter the channel immediately."

Upon seeing the translator, Jiang Lan barely hesitated before walking into the passageway.

Upon entering the passage, the scene before him was exactly the same as the one before entering the black hall he had just entered.

The entire passage was woven from black tree roots and emitted a peculiar smell that was somewhat familiar, similar to the smell of the Black God Suit.

Jiang Lan rallied her spirits and continued walking forward.

After walking a few steps, the straight passage in front of him split into nine forks.

He was taken aback at first, then randomly chose a path and continued walking forward.

After walking a distance again, the same nine forks in the road appeared before Jiang Lan, making him almost think that he had returned to the starting point.

Looking back, Jiang Lan confirmed that his sense of direction was correct; he had indeed come from that road.

Jiang Lan frowned slightly and stopped in place.

At that moment, in a secluded corner not far from him, on the wall formed by black tree roots, a dark figure slowly emerged. Within seconds, it solidified, landed on the ground, and transformed into a black-robed man wearing a silver-gray mask.

Meanwhile, the same thing was happening on the other eight side roads.

Not only that, but each of the nine forks in the road behind Jiang Lan was slowly taking shape with a figure in black robes.

Jiang Lan frowned slightly.

After becoming a planetary warrior and undergoing a transformation in his life level, his five senses were many times stronger than when he was a war god.

Therefore, he could clearly hear the rustling sounds coming from these side roads.

Jiang Lan tightened his grip on the Golden Feather Halberd slightly, his gaze quickly sweeping around.

In just a moment, a humanoid creature appeared before Jiang Lan, wearing a silver-gray mask, with emerald green eyes and dressed in a black robe.

The reason he was described as a humanoid being was because Jiang Lan did not sense any vitality in his eyes; instead, she seemed like a controlled robot.

Then came the second and the third.

In less than ten seconds, a total of eighteen men in black robes appeared in Jiang Lan's field of vision, their emerald green eyes gleaming with intense killing intent as they surrounded him step by step.

Jiang Lan's eyes flashed. Judging from the aura emanating from these eighteen black-robed men, this group was definitely not weak, and might even be comparable to the invincible war gods on Earth.

The Invincible God of War was just one step away from breaking through to the planetary level, and he had virtually no rivals among the God of War level.

However, Jiang Lan remained calm.

Jiying!

Immense strength!

With the two secret manuals activated, Jiang Lan's body was filled with powerful energy.

"Sizzle—sizzle—"

A flash of bluish-purple lightning appeared on the halberd blade. Before the others could get close, Jiang Lan spotted one of them and charged straight at him.

"Boom boom boom!"

He was incredibly fast, creating a sonic boom as he sprinted.

"drink!"

Jiang Lan let out a low shout, raised his halberd high, and slammed it down on the black-robed man in front of him.

"boom!"

A tremendous explosion rang out, and the resulting shockwave forced all the remaining black-robed figures who were trying to approach to their feet to a halt.

As for the black-robed man who had been hit head-on by Jiang Lan, he was charred black all over, his body shattered into several pieces, and he was beyond dead.

Even in this state, the black-robed man's body still didn't bleed at all. Instead, he turned into a pool of black liquid, slowly sinking into the ground and disappearing.

After dealing with one of the men in black robes, Jiang Lan showed no sign of letting his guard down.

There were as many as eighteen men in black robes. If they surrounded him, Jiang Lan wasn't sure if he could escape unscathed.

But it's not a big problem. We can just kill them all before they surround us.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lan's figure suddenly flashed from a distance and disappeared.

"Boom!"

A loud noise rang out, and when Jiang Lan reappeared, he was already in the middle of the remaining seventeen men in black robes.

Jiang Lan's entire body crackled with dazzling electric light.

"Die!"

"Sizzle!"

With his roar, bolts of lightning shot out from his body and blasted towards the group of men in black robes.

After the probing, Jiang Lan was certain that although the group of black-robed men were strong, their defenses were only so-so.

This is enough!
