Chapter 624 Twilight Church: The Gray King
Chapter 624 Twilight Church: The Gray King
Inside the stadium, a long queue formed below the rostrum.
Jiang Ye then looked at the two Divine Ruins abilities he had obtained from Ella and Karl.
Foresight, the kiss of immortality.
Predicting fate allows one to glimpse the threads of destiny and foresee what will happen 10 seconds from now.
The "Eternal Kiss" is related to the mythology of the Valkyrie.
Legend has it that Valkyries can grant immortality to the souls of the fallen by kissing them in Valhalla.
Jiang Ye glanced back at the burly Karl, and couldn't help but swallow.
This kiss... is almost too much to bear.
"Please invite contestant 'Jiang Ye' to come up on stage and draw lots!"
Ok?
Everyone was stunned and looked back at Jiang Ye in confusion.
"Not queuing? Why are they calling out names? What the hell?!"
"Exactly, you should have said you'd draw lots by reading names earlier, then why did we even run around?"
The contestants in the front row grumbled and cursed.
Jiang Ye was also a little confused. He remembered that the announcement had just told people to line up.
Why has it changed to reading out names and drawing lots again?
Moreover, he was the first one listed. He had seen the list of participating teams, and number 1 was not him at all.
Jiang Ye frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then went up on stage.
He now possesses the strength of the human pinnacle, coupled with the replica divine artifacts bestowed upon him by the Jade Emperor.
Even if the strongest person in Japan came, they wouldn't be a match for him.
What's there to be afraid of!
Jiangye walked up to Tanaka Yuto, the president of the Samurai Association. He pointed to the lottery box on the table and nodded with a smile.
Jiang Ye activated the [Mortal God Realm] but found nothing unusual in the lottery box.
He reached in and casually picked up a small ball.
Match number 3, fifth game...
Ok?
Just then, Jiang Ye received the [Fate Prediction] from Ella, which automatically activated.
His surroundings immediately began to change, transforming from a spacious stadium into a cave entrance emitting a mystical glow on the snow-covered Mount Fuji.
here it is……
Jiang Ye's eyes flickered with doubt. [Fate Prediction] allows him to foresee what will happen in 10 seconds.
But this is clearly Mount Fuji, 80km away from the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium. Even the highest human ceiling couldn't reach it in 10 seconds.
Jiang Ye suddenly looked at the lottery ball in his hand, his pupils contracting slightly.
He no longer had any balls in his hand, only a playing card.
Flip it over, and you'll find a gray Joker.
The Church of Twilight! The Grey King!
People from the Nine Realms!
Jiang Ye was startled, and the scene before him vanished instantly, returning him to the stadium.
"What number and which match?" asked Tanaka Yuto, the president of the Samurai Association, with a smile.
Jiang Ye snapped out of his daze, and a short sword flew out of his Qiankun bag, swiftly piercing towards Tanaka Yuuto's heart.
The latter's pupils contracted sharply, and he dodged with incredible speed.
The Gray King of the Twilight Church, the leader of the Prostitute God Sect, is an Assassin.
He had already broken through to the ninth rank and become a demigod more than a decade ago.
As an assassin, speed and reaction ability are absolutely top-notch.
Jiang Ye was not surprised by this, and looked calmly at the Gray King disguised as Tanaka Yuto!
Jiang Ye's action stunned the contestants below.
"How did you find out?"
Grey King held the lottery box, scrutinizing Jiang Ye with his eyes.
He had used almost all his strength to dodge that short blade.
Jiang Ye smiled slightly, "Grey King of the Twilight Church, I didn't expect you to appear here. It seems that the cooperation between the Samurai Council and the Nine Realms is a done deal."
The Grey King!?
The crowd below the stage was startled. They all knew the two kings of the Twilight Church.
"People from the Nine Realms, how could they possibly pass through the Realm Gate!"
"You forgot, this year it's the Japanese Samurai Association's turn to guard the boundary gate. I reckon the Japanese Samurai Association has already colluded with people from the nine realms."
"Has the Japanese samurai society gone mad? Daring to openly violate the treaty!"
"..."
Everyone immediately assumed a fighting stance, their spiritual energy surging throughout their bodies.
On the stage, the Grey King reached out and grabbed his samurai uniform at his chest, then ripped it open with force.
The loose samurai uniform billowed in the wind, and Tanaka Yuto transformed into a capable and sharp woman, holding a short blade in her hand.
"Now that you've discovered us, let's find another place and have a proper talk!"
Grey King threw the lottery box in his hand upwards with force, and what fell out of it were not lottery balls, but playing cards!
Should we change locations?
Jiang Ye was slightly taken aback, only to see the scattered playing cards split into two, then three, and gradually covering the entire stadium.
The crowd's view was also obscured by the densely packed playing cards.
By the time all the playing cards had been played, the stadium was completely empty.
"Hmm! Where is everyone!?"
Zhou Ping, who had been hiding in the shadows, suddenly rushed out and stepped onto the playing card-filled arena.
After sensing for a long time, no trace was found.
Even electronic devices disconnected, disappearing as if by magic.
Zhou Ping frowned, somewhat puzzled.
"Sword Saint Senior, I know where they are!"
A voice reached his ears, and Zhou Ping turned his head to look. His brows relaxed. "So it's you."
Wu Quan and Shen Qingzhu, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, quickly ran to Zhou Ping's side.
Even before coming to Japan, Zuo Qing had already told him about the two undercover agents.
"Where were they taken by the Gray King of the Twilight Church?" Zhou Ping asked anxiously.
"Mount Fuji, a relic of the gods!"
Wu Quan said, "Yesterday, the Samurai Association President Tanaka Yuto revealed his true colors. He seemed to have been threatened by something and went to the Ruins of God in a hurry."
"After searching Tanaka Yuto's home and the Samurai Association's office, the secret of the God's Ruins was discovered."
Zhou Ping was taken aback: "What secret?"
"The reason why the ruins of the gods have not been opened is because there are not enough sacrifices."
Wu Quan coldly said, "The president of the Warriors Guild colluded with people from the Nine Realms, wanting to use the participants of the Global Exchange Tournament as sacrifices to the relics of the gods."
!
Zhou Ping's pupils contracted slightly, and the black box on his back moved, sending the Dragon Elephant Sword flying out.
Without continuing the conversation, he rode his sword and flew towards Mount Fuji.
“Then let’s go too.” Shen Qingzhu transformed into the form of [One Thought God and Demon], spreading out wings of two opposite colors.
"Brother! Don't worry, the opposition led by Yuri Kuroko is more anxious than we are."
Wu Quan said with a casual smile.
Shen Qingzhu nodded slightly. Wu Quan now had all the information about the Japanese Samurai Association, while he... couldn't understand those documents and could only listen to Wu Quan.
"Then what do we do next?"
Wu Quan's face turned serious again, and he took out a picture from his pocket.
It has a circle drawn on it, resembling a mirror.
"This is……"
"The sacred artifact of Takamagahara, Yata no Kagami! Yuto Tanaka used this sacred artifact to shroud the entire Mount Fuji."
"If we can't find the entrance, we can't get in at all, and the people inside can't get out either."
Wu Quan said in a heavy tone.
