Throne of Seals: Underworld Priest, Demon Nightmare

Chapter 14 Advance to the Top Sixteen! A Bet of a Kiss?
Blood clotting technique!

This is yet another underworld skill modified by Chu Zichen, capable of manipulating the abnormal aggregation of plasma proteins to form thrombus precursors.
This significantly increases the viscosity of the target's blood, slows blood flow, and can lead to hypoxia, shock, or even organ failure.

Mages generally have poor physical abilities. While a knight, warrior, or assassin might have been able to hold out for a while, Li Xuefei couldn't withstand it at all and immediately went into shock.

"Priest's Temple, Chu Zichen wins!"

The referee was once again shocked by Chu Zichen. In terms of the destructive power of his attack skills, Li Xuefei, a mage, was actually no match for Chu Zichen, a priest!

This is truly a reversal of the Heavenly Stems!
"Life Healing Spell!"

After winning, Chu Zichen also cast a healing spell on Li Xuefei, which restored her blood to normal and allowed her to wake up again.

"I...I lost."

The arrogance on Li Xuefei's face had vanished. After deeply experiencing the power of Chu Zichen's underworld skills, she truly felt a lingering fear.

She vaguely sensed that the man in front of her could not only save lives, but also control them!
If you really become his enemy, your life will be completely in his hands!

However, if you are friends with him, or even in the same demon hunter group, then your sense of security will undoubtedly be maximized.

The other contestants in the first group once again looked at Chu Zichen with the same eyes they had for a monster.

This was the first time they had ever felt genuine fear of a pastor.

……

Over the next few days, Chu Zichen easily defeated his opponents using his underworld skills, leaving them with a considerable amount of lingering trauma.

On the final ninth day of the group stage, he finally encountered the undisputed strongest player in the first group, Knight No. 1 Yang Wenzhao.

Yang Wenzhao has been carefully observing and studying Chu Zichen's combat skills these past few days. He has learned that Chu Zichen's attack skills can cause special damage to the enemy's skin, muscles, blood and other body organs, and can also ignore defense, which is extremely sinister!

However, he did not back down because of this, but instead planned to go all out.

"Game start!"

As soon as the match started, Yang Wenzhao quickly summoned his mount, the Starry Unicorn!
Yang Wenzhao mounted the Starry Unicorn on its back, and the two of them soared into the air, transforming into a streak of light as they rapidly approached Chu Zichen's location.

"Skeleton Gravity Technique!"

Chu Zichen stood still, unmoved, and unleashed another underworld skill, aiming directly at the Starry Unicorn beneath Yang Wenzhao.

"hiss!!"

The Starry Unicorn suddenly let out a screech, feeling its body become extremely heavy. Its wings could no longer support it, and it fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string!
Skeletal gravity surgery can cause a surge in bone density, leading to a dramatic increase in weight, limited mobility, and bone deformation due to overload, which can compress internal organs and cause asphyxiation-related internal injuries.

With a single move, he destroyed his own mount!
His Starry Unicorn was a level seven magical beast. Although it had only recently broken through, it was still equivalent to a level six human professional, yet it was defeated so easily.

Yang Wenzhao's expression was solemn, but taking advantage of the gap in Chu Zichen's spellcasting, he flipped off the back of the Starry Unicorn and suddenly launched a thrust, his speed suddenly increasing, quickly closing in on Chu Zichen's location.

"Sea Spirit Strike!"

At the same time, Yang Wenzhao directly used his Star Sea Spirit Furnace, and dozens of star-blue light orbs shot out from his chest, pointing directly at Chu Zichen.

This move forced Chu Zichen to defend, and if he did defend, then I would be able to launch a close-range attack in one fell swoop.

Sure enough, Chu Zichen immediately cast a life shield on himself, blocking the Sea Spirit Strike's attack.

"Rising Dragon Strike!"

Yang Wenzhao finally managed to get close to Chu Zichen and unhesitatingly unleashed the Rising Dragon Strike, the most powerful attack among the fifth-tier skills of the Punisher Knight.

This strike is absolutely enough to defeat the opponent!

"Repulsive Force Furnace!"

Unexpectedly, the next second, a powerful repulsive force suddenly came, and Yang Wenzhao's body flew backward uncontrollably, and his ready-to-launch Rising Dragon Strike was abruptly interrupted!
Spirit Furnace!

The opponent also possessed a spirit furnace, and a very rare one at that—a repulsive spirit furnace, a favorite of priests, mages, and summoners, and a nemesis of knights, warriors, and assassins! Because of the repulsive spirit furnace, these melee professionals found it extremely difficult to get close; if they did, they would be forcefully repelled and thrown back!

"Bone fracture surgery!"

Chu Zichen then launched a counterattack, unleashing another underworld skill.

There was a click.

Yang Wenzhao had just landed when he immediately felt his leg bones snap. His body could no longer support him, and he collapsed to the ground, unable to fight any longer.

This underworld skill... I only realized how terrifying it was after experiencing it firsthand!
"Pastor's Temple, Chu Zichen wins!"

The referee, still somewhat shaken, declared Chu Zichen the winner.

"excuse me!"

After apologizing to Yang Wenzhao, Chu Zichen treated him and reattached his broken legs.

"Thank you! I admit defeat, and I accept it wholeheartedly."

Yang Wenzhao clasped his hands in greeting to Chu Zichen. As a priest, Chu Zichen's healing and support abilities as well as his combat abilities were so powerful that Yang Wenzhao had to admire him.

After successfully defeating Yang Wenzhao, Chu Zichen secured first place in the first group with nine consecutive wins, directly advancing to the top sixteen.

Yang Wenzhao and Li Xuefei ranked second and third in the first group, respectively, and thus advanced to the top sixteen.

According to the competition rules, the top sixteen contestants will receive a reward from the Holy Temple Alliance and can choose a suitable secret technique from the Holy Alliance Treasure Vault after the competition ends.

The higher the ranking, the richer the reward.

……

"Cai'er!"

At the familiar spot, Chu Zichen took Cai'er's hand and shared with her how he had defeated Yang Wenzhao and won first place in the first group that day.

"You're such a pervert."

After listening to Chu Zichen's account, Cai'er couldn't help but mutter a complaint under her breath.

A priest completely dominating other professionals in battle—what is that if not a monster?
"How could such cold and heartless words come out of your 37-degree mouth?" Chu Zichen raised his eyebrows and asked in return.

"A mouth at 37 degrees? How did you know?" Cai'er asked, puzzled.

"I was just talking nonsense. Why don't you let me measure the temperature of your little mouth myself? I'm sure I can give you an accurate number," Chu Zichen teased with a chuckle.

Measure it yourself?

How else could he measure it? With his mouth, of course?
Cai'er's face, hidden beneath the veil, flushed slightly, making her look exceptionally charming and beautiful.

"Shame on you!"

Cai'er turned her head away, but subconsciously pursed her full lips.

She still has her first kiss, but she doesn't know what kissing feels like.
“In that case, Cai’er, why don’t we make a bet?” Chu Zichen suddenly suggested.

"What bet?"

"If I win first place in the finals of this year's Demon Hunter Selection Tournament, you can let me kiss you; if you win first place, then I'll let you kiss me."

Chu Zichen spoke slowly.

Cai'er: ? ? ?
