Chapter 124: The New Usage of the God of Hell's Decree

Inside the abandoned wooden house, the progress displayed on the Mirror of Revelation had not changed for a few seconds.

[416/1,000,000 Time elapsed: 209 seconds.]

Although it was only a few seconds of pause, imagine this—when a million beasts besiege one person, in a life-or-death situation, a few seconds without a monster being killed… what does that mean?

"Everyone says Jiang Kai is an anomaly, but he's nothing special. He's probably done for," a squad leader from the Azure Dragon Guild said indifferently, "What a pity about this secret realm."

"We spent two months painstakingly searching for this place, only for Jiang Kai to get in first. If he could clear the secret realm, I'd have nothing to say. But instead, he's useless and just wasting a secret realm for nothing."

Suddenly, Ruan Yu shouted angrily, "What did you say? Say that again!"

The man glanced at Ruan Yu and snorted, "Are you still drunk? I said Jiang Kai is finished. Do you even need to think about this? Do you think anyone can single-handedly kill a million beasts?"

"Even if those beasts are weak, or let's exaggerate and say they stand still and don't fight back, Jiang Kai still wouldn't have the ability to kill them all."

"Unless he's an extraordinary Martial Disciple with some kind of insanely strong talent, there's no way—Jiang Kai is dead for sure!"

Ruan Yu snapped, "Stop jinxing it! You can't even get inside—what right do you have to talk big here?"

"So what if Jiang Kai got in? He's still going to die in there!"

"If not for Jiang Kai, our Azure Dragon Guild might have found another entrance. If we could send in enough people, this secret realm wouldn't go to waste!"

Ruan Yu was so furious her chest heaved,"That beautiful… no, that demon girl just said this is a personal secret realm! You think the whole Azure Dragon Guild can enter? Are you crazy?"

"You drunkard, do you even understand what a secret realm is? Have you ever seen a secret realm that changes? He went in alone, so it's a personal secret realm. But if our whole guild enters, it might turn into a normal secret realm!"

"Hmph! Bumpkin! I, Wang Ming, am putting my words down here—if he comes out alive, I'll kneel and call you Daddy. But if he dies, you kneel and call me Daddy! Do you dare to bet?"

"Bet it is!", Ruan Yu, fueled by the last traces of alcohol, didn't back down at all.

Hu Yan was already anxious as hell, and now Ruan Yu was picking a fight with someone—his headache worsened.

Just as he was about to say something, the numbers on the Mirror of Revelation suddenly changed again.

———

The moment the golden roulette disappeared, Jiang Kai felt himself instantly exit the current space.

The massive golden roulette vanished, but his nearly depleted stamina and mental energy were recovering at an incredible speed.

This feeling was somewhat similar to when Nuannuan used Doctor's Benevolence to transfer her stamina to him.

But there was a major difference.

If Su Nuannuan's temporary transfer of dozens of physique points to Jiang Kai felt like a gentle hot spring flowing through his body, soothing him…

Then now, Jiang Kai felt like he was completely submerged in a hot spring.

Warm currents surged through every cell in his body.

An endless stream of energy was rapidly pouring into him.

His stamina skyrocketed, and his mind became crystal clear.

The black arms still clung tightly to Jiang Kai's body, and an even more intense pain snapped him back to reality!

"God of Hell's Decree!", Jiang Kai growled, and the God of Hell's Decree shot out at high speed.

Before, Jiang Kai had been conserving his strength and didn't dare to use the energy-consuming God of Hell's Decree. But now, in this rapid recovery state, he had no more worries.

The God of Hell's Decree spiraled around Jiang Kai, piercing through the surrounding eerie creatures in a frenzy, instantly freeing him from his predicament.

As soon as Jiang Kai landed, the God of Hell's Decree returned to his hand.

In just a few seconds, Jiang Kai already felt like he had returned to peak condition.

"Weak body condition… In other words, if I take another hit now, I might die instantly," Jiang Kai smirked, "Then it's simple—just don't get hit!"

"Chasing Nine Tribulations!", Jiang Kai immediately activated Quenched Fire: Chasing Nine Tribulations. Seventeen Chasing Nine Tribulations daggers shot out wildly.

To this moment, Jiang Kai still hadn't clearly seen what those eerie creatures looked like. The moment they were killed, not even corpses remained.

But he could tell they weren't overwhelmingly powerful—their movement speed wasn't fast, and they had no particularly tricky attack methods.

Defensively, they weren't immune to fire. Once ignited and hit with a critical strike, they were instantly eliminated.

Jiang Kai estimated their strength to be about the same as elite black apes.

After all, with such an exaggerated number, if they were any stronger than elites, Jiang Kai wouldn't have survived even with rapid recovery.

After adapting for a while, Jiang Kai realized that self-preservation wasn't the problem anymore.

Without considering completing the task early, even in the worst case, the rapid recovery should last for 60 minutes. He had to kill a million eerie creatures in that time—otherwise, once it ended, he was dead.

"Three hundred kills per second… this is…", Jiang Kai did a rough calculation and felt immense pressure.

If he wanted to finish in 30 minutes, that number had to double.

Realizing this, Jiang Kai knew he couldn't waste even a second.

While continuously firing and retrieving Chasing Nine Tribulations, his mind raced.

Gambler's Time only lasted 10 seconds and then had a long cooldown—it wasn't something he could continuously activate just by restoring his attributes.

Gambler's Time was a burst skill, unsuitable for this prolonged battle.

"The attack from the God Card was highly effective just now…", A sudden idea struck Jiang Kai.

He immediately infused the King of Hell's Order with fire and guided it into a spiraling trajectory, rapidly expanding its reach.

This time, he wasn't gambling on a critical hit—he simply wanted the King of Hell's Order to carry flames and ignite a larger area.

Now, he just had to wait for a critical hit to occur during the burning process.

Moments later, the critical hit triggered—instantly wiping out the entire area where the God of Hell's Decree had passed.

The cleared space drastically reduced Jiang Kai's defensive pressure and gave him more breathing room.

"The God of Hell's Decree is controlled by my thoughts, and its attack range far surpasses Chasing Nine Tribulations. I can use this to set the entire battlefield on fire," Jiang Kai's eyes gleamed with excitement.

"God of Hell's Decree!" He threw out the God Card again, this time making it spiral outward to an even greater distance.

'No good, my perception is weakening… Looks like the so-called mental control has a range limit, probably tied to my spirit power,' Jiang Kai quickly retrieved the God of Hell's Decree.

Even though it couldn't go infinitely far, this time the ignition range was several times larger than before.

Suddenly, Jiang Kai realized that, for a moment, there were no more enemies around—his Chasing Nine Tribulations had nothing to kill…

"Huh? No more monsters?", Jiang Kai was dumbfounded, awkwardly holding his daggers.

In the distance, red silhouettes flickered—seems like the ones further away hadn't gotten close yet because their frontliners had all been wiped out.

"What the hell, these guys are moving way too slow," Jiang Kai, who had just been relieved that they weren't fast, was now impatiently waiting.

"Come on, at least put up a fight, will you?", Frustrated, Jiang Kai dashed toward the red silhouettes, "Forget it, I'll come to you!"
