Global Mutation: Become Unbeatable by Plundering the Gods

80: Matchup of seeded players”Hmph, if it weren’t for your father’s Face, I would really want to crush you to death.”

After this person left, Gao Yun also gave a cold snort.

In the entire Xia Country, Gao Yun had always been in the position of supreme leader, until this person arrived four years ago, causing the entire Divine Gene to be in a state of panic.

Many people were forcibly arranged for experiments for various reasons.

Although Gao Yun didn’t consider himself a good person, many of those experimented on were the reserve forces who had joined Divine Gene.

To casually sacrifice one’s own people for some so-called experiments was something Gao Yun could not accept.

The reason the other party was so unscrupulous was that his father was currently one of the true controllers of Divine Gene, a powerful Late-Stage Demigod Awakened One whose strength was enough to rank in the top five globally.

Meanwhile, Gao Yun’s own strength was only at the Early Stage Demigod.

However, as a Demigod Realm, Gao Yun’s voice was enough to command attention. After communication, this person received a warning from his father and restrained his methods significantly.

”Hehe, becoming a god... can one really become a god?”

Since stepping into the Demigod Realm, Gao Yun had made no progress for nearly six years, let alone reaching one hundred percent Divinity condensation to form a so-called Godhead.

What they actually yearned for most was the Eternal Realm of true immortality.

At the same time, whether it was The Crucible or The Officials, they were all conducting their own internal Genius selections.

Since the upper limit couldn’t be decided, they would work hard to increase the lower limit.

By cultivating more top-tier Geniuses, there would be hope to change the situation in the future.

At this moment, on the central square of Dawn City, the competition was still ongoing.

After Zhou Xing, Ye Wuchen, Wen Jie, and White Mist all defeated their opponents. Except for Wen Jie, who encountered a Control Mid-Stage ”Sea God” Awakened One who relatively countered his abilities, the other two encountered Initial Control Stage opponents and won easily.

Lu Yuan, one of the seeded players, had also just forcefully ended his match. His opponent’s strength was not bad, being a dual-element Awakened One, but the result was still a defeat.

Next, the final two seeded player matches of the first round were highly anticipated by many.

At this moment, Elder Tongxuan’s voice echoed through the venue: ”Nineteenth match, Jin Yan of Flame City versus Xiao Meier of Ice City!”

As the voice fell, the two slowly stepped onto the stage.

Jin Yan’s crimson hair looked like burning flames under the sunlight. As his feet stepped onto the arena, every step left a reddish footprint.

Xiao Meier wore an ice-blue long dress. Her azure hair, paired with her cold and beautiful Face, was very attractive.

This was a style completely opposite to her name.

Sparks flew between their eyes at this moment.

After all, ice and fire were inherently incompatible, a natural adversarial relationship.

Along with Elder Tongxuan’s voice saying ”Match start,” Jin Yan took the initiative.

With a crisp snap of his right fingers, dense scorching energy emerged, and a Plasma Fireball half a meter in diameter erupted from his fingertips, whistling toward Xiao Meier with a trail of flame.

Wherever the fireball passed, the air was directly evaporated.

”Winter’s Sigh!”

Xiao Meier’s ice-blue eyes flickered slightly as she opened her vermillion lips, and a blast of deep blue frigid breath billowed out, colliding directly with the incoming fireball in mid-air.

”Boom!”

The collision of extreme cold and extreme heat formed a cloud of energy that constantly expanded and contracted, finally exploding violently.

Both were forced to retreat and dodge under this force.

”Prominence Chains!”

At this moment, stopping his retreat, Jin Yan crossed his hands in front of his chest. Six dazzling golden chains purely constructed from thermal energy, like sentient serpents, coiled toward Xiao Meier from different tricky angles.

Xiao Meier tapped her toes and gracefully drifted back, her hands quickly forming seals—

”Ice Prism Realm!”

Countless polygonal ice crystals formed, constructing an intricate mirror maze.

The light chains were interfered with, and their original attack trajectories instantly shifted.

Just as Jin Yan was about to make another move, a bone-chilling cold came from behind him.

Three arm-thick Ice Cones had approached the back of his heart at some unknown time.

”Blazing Sun Battle Armor!”

Jin Yan’s body erupted with Divinity, and a layer of golden armor emerged.

The three Ice Cones hit the armor and were instantly vaporized.

All of this was merely a probe between the two.

Jin Yan’s expression became much more serious than at the beginning. He raised his hands high, and as energy surged, a miniature sun gradually condensed.

”Solar Domain!”

Piercing light spread like a tide, covering more than half of the arena.

The temperature rose sharply, and the arena began to melt continuously.

Xiao Meier naturally wouldn’t wait for the opponent’s Domain to fully form. She suddenly crouched down, her slender right fingers spreading and pressing onto the arena floor—

”Rime Domain!”

Instantly, azure frigid energy spread rapidly from her center like ripples. Everywhere it touched, even light was Frozen, forming a world of deep blue ice crystals.

Rime is a special form of manifestation distinct from frost or water energy.

Specifically, it is a form created when water energy in a sub-zero environment encounters an object also at a low temperature.

It can be considered a different manifestation of the combination of the two.

To be precise, it can also be seen as a combination of water and frost Divinity.

On the arena, the hot and cold Domain powers collided, distorting the space at the boundary.

The two energies intertwined and clashed continuously, and the ground made ”cracking” sounds as it split.

”Corona Fist!”

At this moment, Jin Yan suddenly lunged, turning into a streak of piercing golden light as he rushed toward Xiao Meier. His right fist, carrying extreme high-temperature flames, smashed down violently.

Xiao Meier’s brows furrowed, and a look of solemnity flashed in her expression.

Watching the charging Jin Yan, she crossed her hands in front of her chest, and the azure divine energy around her surged: ”Rime · Stasis!”

Instantly, the space in front of her formed an area of absolute stillness. Jin Yan’s fist came to a dead stop less than three feet from her Face.

Even the flames on his fist were Frozen in mid-air, maintaining their burning form.

”Crack—!”

Although the Frozen time only lasted for the blink of an eye before shattering and collapsing, Xiao Meier had already taken the opportunity to retreat to a safe distance.

With a wave of her right hand, a dozen crystal-clear ice crystals shot toward Jin Yan like bullets—

”Frost Nova!”

These ice crystals contained terrifying frigid energy compressed to the extreme. They easily pierced through Jin Yan’s Solar Armor and sank directly into his body.

With a muffled groan, Jin Yan could clearly feel the frigid energy within these ice crystals rapidly spreading through his body, attempting to Freeze him from the inside.

Many spectators couldn’t help but cry out in alarm upon seeing this.

However, Long Haotian, sitting in the stands, remained composed and unconcerned.

What a joke. If he was only at this level, how could he be called a seeded player!

As Jin Yan’s Master, no one knew Jin Yan’s true strength better than he did.
