……

Jiang Ye’s heart was filled with countless curses!

Damn it! How could he casually reveal the origin of this “Formless Leaf”!

Regarding the matter of Jiang Ye’s blood-drained desiccated corpse transforming into a “Formless Leaf”…

Most of the strong players present believed that the generation of the “Formless Leaf” was primarily due to the “Formless Tree” playing the main role.

It was because the “Formless Tree” drained Jiang Ye’s blood that the “Formless Tree” itself grew a new “Formless Leaf.”

Although the incident of Jiang Ye having his blood drained was also special and worthy of deep thought.

But Zhou Yuling already knew that Jiang Ye’s blood was special.

Then Jiang Wenxing must also know.

Perhaps among the strong players present, there were others who knew as well.

So, they could naturally accept the setting that “Jiang Ye’s blood can make the Formless Tree grow new leaves.”

But the “Formless Leaf” currently in Jiang Wenxing’s hand was a special case!

Because the generation of that “Formless Leaf”…

Strictly speaking, had almost nothing to do with the “Formless Tree” growing here!

It was completely transformed from Jiang Ye’s blood-loss desiccated corpse!

If this secret were revealed…

Then with Jiang Wenxing’s knowledge and experience, no matter how foolish he was, he would realize—

Jiang Ye himself, without relying on the Formless Tree, could directly “create leaves”!

So…

What was special wasn’t Jiang Ye’s blood!

But rather, Jiang Ye and this Formless Tree itself had some kind of connection!

Who knows what kind of experiments this guy would then subject Jiang Ye to!

And the other strong players present would probably, because of this special circumstance, see Jiang Ye as the key to clearing the Court of Disorder!

So this secret must not be made public!

Jiang Ye had previously been audacious enough to impersonate the Nomadic Merchant precisely because he didn’t want this secret to be discovered.

He had even dared to impersonate the Nomadic Merchant to protect this secret…

So at this moment, it was naturally impossible to tell Jiang Wenxing.

So…

Very obviously, a trace of resistance flashed in his eyes.

And Jiang Wenxing’s way of doing things had always been swift and decisive.

Those he forced to make a choice, if they dared to hesitate even a bit…

Then the next second, he would directly make the choice for them.

So now…

When he saw that flicker of hesitation in Jiang Ye’s eyes.

The corner of his mouth suddenly lifted into a contemptuous arc.

An ambiguous light hum.

With this posture…

If nothing unexpected happened, the next second would bring soul-searching magic!

But if nothing unexpected happened, then something unexpected indeed occurred!

Jiang Wenxing didn’t get a chance to act.

Above his head, another shimmering golden phantom appeared.

That phantom was clearly the shape of a mysterious dice again.

Its high-speed rotation made the patterns on the dice indistinguishable.

But having experienced this once already, Jiang Wenxing found this repeating tactic utterly laughable.

“Hmph.” He crossed his arms, his entire tall and straight posture seemingly brimming with arrogance and recklessness.

His gaze toward Jiang Ye was also condescendingly mocking:

“Is this your proud trump card?”

“Once wasn’t enough, so you’re trying again?”

“You’re not thinking of gambling on probabilities with me, are you?”

“Six sides, roll six times, and you’ll get [Skull]?”

“Or perhaps, you can manipulate the probability, increasing the chance of rolling [Skull]?”

As he said this, he casually glanced at the phantom dice above his head.

He snorted disdainfully again, then looked back at Jiang Ye:

“Then I can tell you very clearly—”

“With my status, experiences, and fortune…”

“This dice of yours, used on me, will never roll [Skull]!”

“Even if it does roll [Skull], so what?”

“These kinds of erasure effects from item categories or human abilities… I’ve long been immune to them!”

Sure enough, just as Jiang Ye had guessed!

This Jiang Wenxing, as a Reincarnator, was indeed ridiculously strong!

He actually truly feared neither item-based erasure nor human-ability-based erasure!

In other words, the “erasure” authority that administrators had over players was ineffective against him!

That [Dice of Fate] item similarly couldn’t make him “die immediately”!

The only thing he probably feared was announcement-based erasure, right?

However…

Jiang Ye wasn’t discouraged.

He still felt—the ability of the [Observer] clone might not belong to the “human ability” category.

After all, according to the state description of the Observer’s [Existence Negation]…

It couldn’t even be considered “human”!

It was an existence that didn’t exist!

So…

The Dice of Fate thrown by it…

Jiang Ye was very eager for the outcome this time.

Of course, he also clearly felt—

Previously, while Jiang Ye’s main body was in the Time-Stop Prison, he had spent a great deal of time researching and training the Observer clone’s abilities.

Although inscribing other decrees was relatively difficult.

Very few could succeed and take effect.

But he had practiced the decree format of “Dice of Fate shows XX” to perfection.

In other words…

Whenever the [Dice of Fate] was thrown, Jiang Ye could directly specify the final outcome!

But this time, he clearly felt…

When he wrote the white decree “Dice of Fate shows skull,” it was incredibly difficult!

Hundreds of times more difficult than when he inscribed the decree for Zhou Qiming!

And this was even after he had trained to perfection;
it was still hundreds of times more difficult than the first time he used it!

So, indeed, Jiang Wenxing hadn’t lied to him!

This Reincarnator was truly special!

Trying to successfully inscribe a decree on him, forcing him to die from the skull effect of the Dice of Fate…

The difficulty far exceeded that for others!

At the very least, Jiang Ye’s first attempt failed!

When the entire [Dice of Fate] showed the [Coin] effect.

Jiang Wenxing chuckled lightly again.

He didn’t say much, but that light laugh and contemptuous gaze clearly said—See, I was right! Even if you can manipulate probability, you cannot dictate my fate!

If I say it won’t show skull, then it won’t show skull!

However, Jiang Ye did not give up!

Another [Dice of Fate] flashed above Jiang Wenxing’s head.

“Heh.” Jiang Wenxing chuckled again, “I admire your persistence. However…”

“I don’t have time to play this childish game with you anymore!”

As he spoke, he instantly flashed, his five fingers clamping around Zhang Minghan’s neck, lifting the entire person up.

The phantom of the Dice of Fate still spun rapidly above his head.

But he completely ignored it.

His eyes suddenly turned red, locking onto Zhang Minghan’s eyes.

At that moment, Jiang Ye’s Zhang Minghan clone was completely immobilized.

He couldn’t even blink!

He could only stare wide-eyed, meeting Jiang Wenxing’s gaze.

Of course, his Observer clone was still tirelessly inscribing the decree.

The previous failure was partly because his mind was affected by Jiang Wenxing’s words;

and partly because he couldn’t inscribe the complete decree before the Dice of Fate showed the result.

This time, having learned the lesson, he focused single-mindedly;
every stroke he inscribed was firm and rapid!

Actually, the first few characters “Dice of Fate shows” were inscribed relatively smoothly and fluidly.

It was only when it came to the two characters for “skull”…

Although these two characters were relatively complex.

Jiang Ye had deliberately practiced countless characters before.

He could long inscribe these two characters neatly and properly, as straight and clear as machine printing.

But this time, when forcibly inscribing them, it was as if an invisible hand tightly gripped him.

As a result, the strokes he struggled to inscribe were as if the pen tip was trembling;
every horizontal, vertical, left-falling, and right-falling stroke was crooked and twisted, unrecognizable!

However, having experienced one failure already.

This time, Jiang Ye was mentally prepared.

The two characters for “skull” that he finally mustered all his strength to inscribe were ridiculously large!

At least several dozen times larger than the previous five characters!

Because based on his experience…

Even if your characters are crooked and hard to recognize, as long as they are written large enough, they can barely form.

Of course, inscribing such large characters was also more difficult than inscribing small ones.

The already arduous process became even more painful and unbearable because each stroke was prolonged.

Jiang Ye even felt…

The pain of inscribing the large characters for “skull” at this moment far exceeded the pain of having his neck gripped by Jiang Wenxing while staring into his eyes!

Finally…

The eyes belonging to the Zhang Minghan clone, after being widened to the extreme, actually burst open!

And the blood splattered when the eyeballs burst actually turned into a blood mist, actively flying towards the 「Formless Tree」!

Afterwards, just like those clones whose blood was drained by the Formless Tree, blood mist continuously seeped from the eye sockets devoid of eyeballs, surging towards the 「Formless Tree」.

And right after this happened, Jiang Wenxing’s face darkened, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

He released his grip on Zhang Minghan’s neck and instead pressed his hand onto the top of Zhang Minghan’s head.

It seemed he was switching to another method to continue the soul search.

However, after pressing on Zhang Minghan’s head, his expression remained unpleasant.

Even his gaze followed the blood mist seeping from Zhang Minghan’s eye sockets towards the blood marks on the Formless Tree.

Jiang Wenxing’s frown deepened, as if he was falling into some difficult contemplation.

Yet…

While his attention was still focused on Zhang Minghan and the Formless Tree.

As if sensing something from the unseen.

He suddenly looked up.

Then he saw the rapidly spinning phantom of the [Dice of Fate] being abruptly pressed down by an invisible hand!

It stopped so suddenly.

And the final result was quite eye-catching—

It was a golden, shimmering, skull phantom!

Hollow eyes, a grinning skull!

At this moment, Zhang Minghan, whose eyes were also hollow due to the exploded eyeballs, seemed to smile as well.

And Jiang Wenxing, staring at the skull, pupils constricted sharply!

However, he seemed to still retain some composure.

Exactly confirming what he had said earlier—

Even if [Skull] really appeared, he had nothing to fear.

Yet…

This composure soon dissipated.

To be precise…

Jiang Wenxing himself directly dissipated into points of light!

The manner of his sudden dissipation was exactly the same as the players he had treated as lab rats, cut to make bleed, and were then erased!

In an instant…

Around the entire 「Formless Tree」, Jiang Wenxing was gone;
that dark figure could no longer be seen…

At this moment, it was as if the air stopped flowing, the whole world falling into an eerie silence.

The gazes of the group of strong players around…

Stunned! Dumbfounded! Shocked!

They stared ghost-like in the direction where Jiang Wenxing disappeared.

For a long time, no one dared to even utter a sound of amazement.

Afraid that if they breathed too loudly, Jiang Wenxing would appear beside them like a ghost the next second, saying “Surprised? Or not?”…

Zhou Yuling was a bit bolder.

She also waited for a while before swallowing hard and softly asking towards the direction of the eyeless Zhang Minghan:

“Uh, that…”

“Jiang Wenxing, he…”

Zhou Yuling also didn’t dare to directly voice the doubt in her heart.

Clearly, she simply couldn’t believe—

Such an awesome Reincarnator, who even dared to question the Nomadic Merchant…

Had he just died so easily?

Didn’t he say he wasn’t afraid of the Dice of Fate?

So maybe he didn’t actually die, but resurrected somewhere else, and would come back later to deal with them?

To be honest, Jiang Ye wasn’t sure either…

He was utterly exhausted at this moment.

That feeling was even more tiring and uncomfortable than the light clone’s energy being overconsumed, or the main body being unable to withstand so many clones!

To alleviate this discomfort, the [Observer] clone directly merged onto another newly grown “Formless Leaf” on the tree.

This new leaf was grown from the Wu Ying clone.

It was also the only new leaf on the tree currently.

And on the ground, there were 7 figures seeping blood.

They were the Zhang Minghan clone and the 6 clones generated by Zhang Minghan.

And the clone previously used for [clone swapping] with the “Formless Leaf” became the only Jiang Ye clone that could still move freely at this moment.

So, this clone picked up the “Formless Leaf” that had fallen to the ground when Jiang Wenxing turned into points of light.

Incidentally, it also picked up a permission iron piece and a thumb-sized pitch-black gourd.

Just as he was about to stand up…

The Observer clone merged with the “Formless Leaf” seemed to observe something again.

So, this sole mobile clone did not stand up directly.

He stared intently at the ground where Jiang Wenxing disappeared, examining it carefully.

After a moment, his eyes lit up;
he actually dug out from under the pitch-black charred earth a…

Pure black… small iron chain?

At first, Jiang Ye thought it was a small black snake.

However, this black elongated thing really didn’t look like a living creature.

No matter how he fiddled with it, holding one end of the chain and flicking it several times, the entire chain remained a chain, showing no change.

This thing looked like a very ordinary black iron chain to the naked eye.

Seven inches long, thinner than a finger.

But Jiang Ye, who possessed the [Observer] clone, knew—

This thing might be even more special than that permission iron piece!

However, under the watchful eyes of everyone present, he naturally couldn’t study it properly.

So, after simply flicking it a couple of times, he put away the chain, the iron piece, the small black gourd, and the “Formless Leaf” that originally belonged to him.

Then, his gaze slowly swept over the strong players present, finally stopping on Zhou Yuling.

Although he wasn’t entirely sure in his heart.

He displayed full confidence on his face, stating decisively:

“If nothing unexpected happens…”

“Jiang Wenxing should be dead.”

“Even if he luckily resurrects, his strength will inevitably be greatly reduced.”

As these words fell, the originally doubtful and uncertain eyes of the strong players present shook violently!

Even Zhou Yuling looked at Jiang Ye as if she had seen a ghost!

Damn it! How could it not be ghost-like?!

Jiang Wenxing! A Reincarnator! Such heaven-defying strength! Without a doubt, he could easily overpower Lin Ling’s existence!!

But the result…

He just died, so casually, at Jiang Ye’s hands…?

Wait!

Immediately, a strong player pointed out a key point:

“But…”

“According to the previous announcement rules—”

“Within the Formless Domain, killers will be erased…”

“But you…”
