I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 179 A Powerful Opponent, the Appearance of the Shrine Maiden

The scene in the sky at this moment is indeed spectacular.

Three orbs of light appeared before everyone's eyes, each containing a large, gleaming golden chest.

A bottle of pale purple potion and a gleaming golden skill scroll floated beside these boxes.

Needless to say, these boxes are filled with gold coins.

In the lower-level competition arena, the champions in all three groups receive the same rewards: 5000 million gold coins, a bottle of beginner magic potion, and a shiny beginner skill scroll.

For professionals below level 40, 5000 million gold coins is no small sum. And the Beginner's Magical Potion and the Flash Beginner Skill Scroll are even more precious.

These two items are almost impossible to find outside the market, and are rarely seen even on exchanges or at auctions.

A treasure that is priceless but unavailable.

If these two items were sold, they would fetch at least hundreds of millions.

"This is the basic magic potion. It can increase all attributes by 200 and is suitable for professions below level 40."

"This kind of potion is very hard to find outside of the market, and it is rarely seen even at auctions."

"And there are also shimmering skill scrolls, which, although only beginner level, are still priceless."

Basic skills are not necessarily worthless; many skills can become powerful as you develop them.

Most professionals cannot master all skills, and even with a vast number of skill scrolls, some skills may be overlooked. The rule for using skill scrolls is that the more skills you master, the higher your probability of successfully learning the next skill.

The last skill may require multiple attempts to succeed, which is where the Flash skill scroll plays a crucial role.

Three orbs of light floated in mid-air, displaying the prizes to all the participants and reminding them that the prizes were right in front of them, and that as long as they had the skills, they could have them.

The professionals below stared intently at the prizes, their eyes gleaming with determination.

Jiang Chen glanced at it and then stopped looking. If he wanted to see it, he could wait until he got his hands on it and look at it slowly.

With the prizes presented, today's competition officially began.

Jiang Chen's team was the first to appear.

Moreover, he was the only one to appear on stage, while Lin Cai'er and the others watched from below.

"Our opponents are a team from Japan, and I heard they are quite strong." "Their team leader is named Sakura Fubuki, and her profession is a shrine maiden, a profession unique to Japan."

"This profession is quite mysterious, with very little information available. Although it's not a legendary profession, it's said to be very special."

Each country has its own unique bloodline, which gives rise to some unique professions.

The land of cherry blossoms has two unique professions: one is the well-known mythical profession, Onmyoji, and the other is the relatively mysterious Shrine Maiden, which is classified as a rare profession, rarely discussed outside the country, and information about it is scarce.

Jiang Chen had no fondness for Japan; there was animosity between them.

He clearly remembered that the Onmyoji named Abe Insei wanted to kill him, so he would not let him go if given the chance.

Sakura Fubuki stepped onto the arena, dressed in typical Sakura Kingdom attire, paired with wooden shoes that creaked as she walked. Behind her stood a knight, two archers, and two mages.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang Chen, I am Sakura Fubuki from the land of cherry blossoms."

Sakura Fubuki smiled and bowed to Jiang Chen, appearing very polite.

Jiang Chen did not respond, but simply looked at the prize indifferently.

Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't react, Sakura Fubuki took two more steps forward and lowered her voice even further.

"Our Emperor is very interested in Mr. Jiang's profession and sincerely invites Mr. Jiang Chen to join our country."

"Mr. Jiang, if you have any requests, please feel free to make them, and I will do my best to meet them."

Sakura Fubuki continued, her eyes conveying a special meaning that every man understood. It must be said, Sakura Fubuki was very beautiful.

She exudes an amazing charm.

Judging solely by her appearance, she was no less beautiful than any woman Jiang Chen had ever seen.

However, in Jiang Chen's eyes, no matter how beautiful she was, it was useless.

Hearing Ying Fubuki's words, Lin Cai'er clenched her fists: "What a bitch."

Liu Cui chimed in, "Indeed, vulgar."

Jiang Chen showed a look of disgust: "Get out of here."

Sakura Fubuki didn't mind: "Mr. Jiang can think about it carefully."

As she spoke, she retreated to the middle of the group, where the knights stood in front of Sakura Fubuki.

The knight was so tall and imposing that he completely obscured the cherry blossoms; from the front, you couldn't see them at all.

To attack her, one must first defeat the knight. A formation flashed across the arena, forming a large light screen that enveloped the entire arena.

With a soft thud, the match began.

Two skeleton mages instantly appeared beside Jiang Chen.

The skeleton mage immediately used his skill.

On the other side of the cherry blossom country, a phantom appeared in the sky.

It has the appearance of a human and the body of a snake; it is neither human nor demon.

"God formula?"

Jiang Chen instinctively thought it was a shikigami, but upon closer inspection, it wasn't.

The phantom opened its enormous maw and swallowed up all of the skeleton mage's attacks.

A soft laugh rang out, and Sakura Fubuki peeked out from behind the knight.

"Mr. Jiang, this is the human-faced serpent god of our Sakura Kingdom, who can devour any elemental attack. So your attack is ineffective against us."

Jiang Chen wasn't surprised. Making it to the finals meant they must have some skill.

How could it be dealt with so easily?

Since elemental attacks are ineffective, let's try physical attacks.

Five skeleton warriors appeared in front of them and ran past with a cracking sound.

At that moment, a phantom image reappeared above the head of the Cherry Blossom Country.

A monster covered in sharp spikes, with a head like a wild boar and a body like a bull, appeared in the air.

"Skill: Divine Possession!"

Amidst Sakura Fubuki's delicate shout, the boar-like monster burrowed into the knight's body.

The knight's eyes flashed red, and his aura surged, like a whirlwind sweeping across the arena.

At the same time, he let out a roar like a wild beast.

Skill: Group Taunt! All five skeletons are simultaneously enveloped by the skill, forcibly shifting their target and charging towards the knight.

Instead of retreating, the possessed knight charged towards the skeleton.

With a loud bang, the knight was knocked back.

The skeleton warriors paused for a moment before continuing their charge.

Sakura Fubuki's face showed shock: "Mr. Jiang's skeleton is really powerful. Even the knight possessed by the Mighty God was knocked back."

As she spoke, a glint of light flashed on her middle finger.

Skill: Possession Enhancement!

The knight's aura intensified once more, as if he had been given various buffs.

The knight, now fully enhanced, roared repeatedly as he launched another fierce attack on the skeleton warrior.

He actually managed to hold off five skeleton warriors all by himself.

He seemed to be struggling, constantly retreating, but he did manage to block the attack.

Such a skill is truly unprecedented.

The profession of shrine maiden in Japan is very mysterious, and very few people have ever seen one.

No one knows anything about Cherry Blossom Blizzard's various skills.

Looking at it now, this profession seems even more mysterious and strange.

The deities she summoned were certainly not real deities.

It's more like some kind of summoned beast, similar to the shikigami in Onmyoji.

Shikigami can fight independently and possess a variety of abilities.

The things summoned by Cherry Blossom Blizzard can exist independently or merge with the professional, greatly enhancing the professional's strength.

This profession is very special and very powerful.

Many top-tier professionals were present, and they were quite impressed when they saw Sakura Fubuki's professional skills. They wondered if such skills, when used on top professionals, could make them even more powerful.

Some people are already considering talking to Sakura Fubuki afterwards.

The knight blocked the skeleton warrior, and under the taunt skill, the skeleton warrior attacked the knight frantically, ignoring Sakura Fubuki.

Sakura Fubuki giggled, "It seems Mr. Jiang's summoned creatures aren't very obedient either."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly.

disobedient?

That just means he wasn't giving orders.

With a sudden thought, the skeleton warriors who were besieging the knight all turned their attention to Sakura Fubuki.

No matter how the knight used his taunt skill, the skeleton warrior ignored him.

Sakura Fubuki's expression suddenly changed drastically; she truly regretted provoking Jiang Chen. She shouted again, "Possessed by a god!"

The first summoned serpent deity quickly merged into the mage's body.

The mage, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly raised his head, his eyes glowing red.

A ring of fire shot out, sending all the skeleton warriors flying.

The Fire Resistance Ring is more powerful than the ordinary Fire Resistance Ring, clearly having been amplified.

Cherry Blossom Blizzard used her skill again.

A spider-like deity appeared above her head.

Skill: Divine Possession!

The delicate shout indicated that the spider spirit had merged into another mage's body.

The mage's eyes glowed red as he raised his staff high.

A gentle breeze blew out.

Skill: Shackles of the Wind. Shackles appear on the skeleton warriors one after another, binding them and preventing them from moving forward.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

In the blink of an eye, the five skeleton warriors had been subdued.

Sakura Blizzard breathed a sigh of relief and said with a charming smile, "Mr. Jiang, elemental attacks are ineffective, and the skeleton warrior is under control. Do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?"

"If you don't have it, then you've lost."

As she spoke, the knight charged toward Jiang Chen.

To everyone else, Jiang Chen was just a summoner.

If a powerful knight were to charge at them, they would surely die.

Even though Jiang Chen still had 3 skeleton warriors he hadn't summoned.

Even if they are summoned, they will still be controlled and cannot play any role.

Many people thought that Jiang Chen was really finished this time. Sakura Fubuki already had a victorious smile on her face.

Suddenly, the arena was filled with red light.

Cherry Blossom's smile froze on her face.
