Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

"Congratulations to the little ones standing on the ring."

The man in the blue battle robe with purple scales stood in mid-air, looking down at the 100 young men and women on the arena.

"First of all, congratulations on making it into the top 100. You can enter the 'Secret Realm of Heaven and Earth' of my Virtual Universe Company."

Now it's time to select the top 20 among you.

"Based on the selection criteria of the virtual universe system, I will submit a list of 20 people."

Immediately, most of the 100 young geniuses who had just won on the stage became nervous.

Although they have obtained a spot, the selection is still made by the virtual universe system. If they are not selected, how can the remaining 80 geniuses be willing to accept it?

Unfortunately, what can you do if you're unwilling? Not long ago, those unwilling geniuses demonstrated that no matter how unwilling or rebellious you are, the Virtual Universe Company only has one thing to say: they will never force anyone. If you feel dissatisfied or that it's unfair, you can quit directly!

"Berlan!"

"Jiang Chen!"

The man in the cyan battle robe with purple scales began to announce a list of 20 people.

"Guslo!"

"Aichen!"

"Uka!"

"Yi Feng!"

"Galeci!"

"Rong Jun!"

"Luo Feng!"

As names were called out one by one, those whose names hadn't been called showed barely concealed anxiety.

They were all victors, but only 20 could participate in the next battle.

Tao!

"The 20 people selected by the virtual universe system are the same 20 people I previously reported."

The man in the cyan battle robe with purple scales smiled and said, "Please have these 20 people rest and recover from the previous battle. We will begin the next battle in a while."

Those whose names were called, such as Luo Feng, all looked relaxed, waiting for the next arrangements.

Jiang Chen waited quietly, confident in his ability to handle whoever it was.

Those who weren't selected inevitably felt anxious and bitter.

"Congratulations, Candita, on breaking into the top 100!"

"Stop talking. Although I made it into the top 100, I'm not even on the final 20 list. Even though those 20 are definitely top-tier, I'm still not satisfied until I actually fight!"

"Sigh, I'm not reconciled either. I didn't get one of those 200 spots. I really feel resentful!"

The young men and women who no longer needed to fight chatted casually, and many of them would become long-term partners.

Meanwhile, 20 people quietly rested and adjusted their condition in a corner.

Soon, these 20 people will fight to determine the 10 who will win.

"The details of this battle haven't been revealed yet; we'll only know when the battle begins. This will probably be a test of mental fortitude," Jiang Chen thought silently, closing his eyes and awaiting the battle.

About half an hour later, the list was released.

"Boom!"

The central square began to shake, and ten giant arenas gradually rose up in the center of the square, covered with a large number of black silk strips.

At the same time, Jiang Chen, Luo Feng, and twenty others who were resting were instantly teleported into these ten giant arenas.

Now, everyone knows the details of these people's battles.

"Tragedy! That Blood Axe 'Tao' actually ran into Death 'Bolan'?"

"Berlan's genius is acknowledged by the Virtual Universe Company. Tao, even if you have hidden trump cards, you still can't defeat Berlan!"

"Over there, Galesi is facing Jiang Chen; another tragic situation!"

"Galexi, another super genius and an illusionist, is confident in fighting anyone. But Bolan and Jiang Chen have such strong comprehension of the laws that their consciousness and will are not so easily shaken."

"From beginning to end, the Phantom Demon did not lift a finger in any battle; he simply watched his opponent and defeated him."

He was arguably the most terrifying mentalist and illusionist in this competition.

"The final outcome is still uncertain."

However, the geniuses still had some doubts.

However, the immortals all knew that even the Virtual Universe Company had increased the number of "Primal Secret Realm" recruits for this year's Genius Battle to three, specifically for Jiang Chen and Bo Lan.

The probability of Blood Axe Wave and Illusion Demon Galesi being able to upset 'Bolan and Jiang Chen' is extremely low.

Unless, of course, they are the most terrifying geniuses in the universe, appearing only once every billion years.

"Gusiluo versus Rongjun?"

"Gusiluo's ranking in the Trial Tower was very stable, always second. He only dropped to third after Jiang Chen's sudden burst of power. He's a truly remarkable guy. Rong Jun is in a difficult position."

"A battle between Qian Shui and Luo Feng?"

"Qian Shui and Luo Feng are both controllers, and both of them have grasped the essence of controllers. It all comes down to who has stronger attack power and who is more perfect."

Ten arenas.

Ten matches.

The battle is fierce and even more intense than the fight for the top 100; this is the true pinnacle of this year's Genius Battle!

On the arena.

Jiang Chen, holding a long spear, was dressed in a black battle robe.

Galesi, standing on a black halo, shrouded in a black robe, was tall and thin.

There are two main directions for mentalists: one is the "controller" and the other is the "illusionist".

The controller tends to destroy the physical body. Most mentalists are controllers. It is easy to get started, but it is very difficult to achieve great success.

Illusionists tend to destroy their opponents' souls directly, making them difficult to master, but once mastered...

Terrible!

"Jiang Chen," the Illusion Demon Galesi said in a hoarse, low voice, "you do have the strength to be in the top three, but if you encounter me, you'll be eliminated."

"Oh, you're very confident." Jiang Chen's lips curled up slightly. "I'm looking forward to it."

"The winners will advance to the top ten, kids, don't let your guard down, your opponents are all very strong!"

"The battle begins!"

The man in the cyan battle robe with purple scales spoke from afar, his voice echoing in everyone's ears.

Almost simultaneously, battles erupted on all ten arenas.

The Illusionary Demon Galesi, riding a black halo, had cold, piercing eyes.

hum!

An invisible wave of psychic energy instantly reached Jiang Chen and invaded his mind. The speed of the psychic energy was invisible yet swift.

As he cast his mental illusion spell, the illusion demon Galesi waved his hand, and the black halo beneath his feet instantly transformed into a beam of black light, slashing directly at Jiang Chen's head in the distance.

This is also the first time in the arena that Illusion Demon Galesi has attacked with both illusions and telekinetic weapons.

An invisible force of thought quietly seeped into Jiang Chen's consciousness.

The sea of ​​consciousness was vast and boundless, but a pale golden tower almost filled the entire sea of ​​consciousness. This void tower had three levels.

The Void Tower has a crystal-clear, pale gold surface with faint, mysterious patterns that protect its inner soul core.

The Tower of the Void - Three-Tier Pagoda Realm.

Among the secret techniques passed down by the master of Meteorite Star, there are two of the most important ones: one is the secret technique "Soul Imprint" that Hu Yanbo developed himself, and the other is "Void Tower" that Hu Yanbo obtained through adventure.

The Tower of the Void is also a very powerful arcane art.

Hu Yanbo obtained it by chance, and before his death he had only cultivated to the "Sixth Layer Pagoda Realm".

If he cultivated to the "Seven-Story Pagoda," Hu Yanbo believed that he would be able to survive the calamity he suffered back then.

Therefore, reaching the seventh level of the pagoda realm should grant the ability to unleash powerful, immortal soul attacks, which is why Jiang Chen values ​​this ability.

Jiang Chen himself has only cultivated to the third level of the Pagoda Realm, while the Zerg Queen is already close to cultivating to the fifth level of the Pagoda Realm!

It will take a little more time to cultivate to the fifth level of the pagoda realm.

However, the Zerg Queen is skilled in illusion magic and has her own soul defense techniques. Without cultivating to the sixth or even seventh level, it wouldn't be of much help to the Zerg Queen's clone.

At this moment, the ethereal mental power unleashed by the Illusion Demon Galesi invaded Jiang Chen's sea of ​​consciousness and directly touched the Void Tower.

Upon contact, it did not launch a direct attack, but instead slowly pressed against the Void Tower, gradually making contact.

The Void Tower is essentially a structure of mental energy arranged in a unique and incredibly precise order.

When that ethereal mental power touched the 'Tower of Void', Jiang Chen's consciousness was trapped in the 'mental illusion'.

However, Jiang Chen's willpower was too strong, and he instantly realized that he was in an illusion, and was able to remain mostly conscious.

"It's rare to encounter such an excellent mentalist and illusionist. Let's immerse ourselves for a moment and experience his illusions!"

Immediately, Jiang Chen was half alert and half trying to immerse himself in the illusion of the Illusion Demon Galesi, to comprehend the subtlety of his illusion.
