I Open Treasure Chests in the Apocalypse

When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...

Chapter 1396 Plateau Above the Clouds

"Look, the battle is over!"

All eyes of the alien races were on Shi Jingang. As for the dead Nascent Soul cultivator, no one paid any attention to him. This world only cares about the victors; the losers on the path of cultivation are not worthy of being remembered.

Therefore, naturally no one investigated the cause of death of this Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Jiang Yuan was so strong that killing another Nascent Soul Realm cultivator didn't seem so unacceptable.

"Go steal some kills!"

The alien races swarmed forward in a chaotic rush. Battlefield rewards don't care about morality; they only look at the results. As long as you complete the God-Slaying Mission, the exclusive divine position will belong to you without a doubt. That's why killing Jiang Yuan has become something so many people are eager to do. This is an opportunity that can change one's life.

"Kill me?"

Jiang Yuan stood up shakily from the ruins. He casually tore open a teleportation talisman and then slowly disappeared in the light.

"Don't run, you little thief!"

Shi Jingang rushed forward and struck in anger, but he only injured the person in the light and did not stop Jiang Yuan from leaving.

"Jiang Yuan, I have already sensed your presence. Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I will kill you!"

Shi Jingang roared to the sky, the sound of which shook the mountains and forests for a long time. This battle quickly spread throughout the entire foreign tribes that had invaded China.

However, after this battle, Shi Jingang quickly rose to fame and became a celebrity in the alien race circle.

"Back then, Kane and I faced him together. Kane's performance was mediocre; he was actually intimidated by the renowned Jiang Yuan. But I had a fearless heart and was determined to kill him."

"Jiang Yuan, intimidated by my immense pressure, dared not even meet my gaze. I, however, ignored him and swung my iron fist at his head. In the blink of an eye, he unleashed the divine secret technique, Heaven-Slaying, to attack both of us. Kane, this guy, was cowardly before the battle even began. In this close encounter where the brave prevail, he lost a move and was killed by Jiang Yuan. But I, relying on my courage, smashed his skull with a single punch. If I hadn't been hungry this morning, the divine reward for today's God of Slaughter mission would have been mine, Stone Vajra!"

In the alien circle, a huge figure was talking loudly in the crowd, and the others listened with great interest. After all, Jiang Yuan's achievements were not just talk; he had fought his way up step by step with his own sword. There were very few people who could gain the upper hand in a fight, so it was not an exaggeration for Shi Jingang to talk about all kinds of invincible and god-level secret techniques of Jiang Yuan. On the contrary, it would make the audience feel a sense of recognition.

When it comes to someone unattainable, people tend to attribute their success to good fortune rather than hard work. There's no other explanation than good luck; if they had the same luck, they too could have reached Jiang Yuan's level.

"Shi Jingang, you've been bragging so much, but you still haven't killed Jiang Yuan, have you?"

Some people were happy to listen to Shi Jingang boast, while others were not. Soon, a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator stood up and questioned Shi Jingang.

"I'm bragging, do you believe I'll be the one who kills Jiang Yuan in the end?" Shi Jingang said arrogantly, but his arrogance seemed to be based on solid confidence.

"Tch, anyone can talk big. I could say I'll be the one who kills Jiang Yuan in the end!" the man sneered.

"He's already severely injured by my secret technique, and I can also track his movements using it. Who can kill him before me..."

Shi Jingang's words came to an abrupt halt, as if he had only spoken them inadvertently under the provocation. However, those present were not deaf, and his words had already reached the ears of the others without missing a single one.

"Um, I have to go now."

Shi Jingang made an excuse and quickly left, but this move stirred the hearts of most of the alien races, because everyone was convinced that Shi Jingang had locked onto Jiang Yuan, and that as long as they followed him, they would surely be able to find Jiang Yuan.

However, it was indeed true. When Shi Jingang caught up with Jiang Yuan, those who had been secretly following him did indeed discover Jiang Yuan's footprints. However, Jiang Yuan was very cautious, and by the time they arrived, he had already noticed them and fled.

But this didn't discourage them. Who was Jiang Yuan? He was the first person in history to be issued a killing god mission on the battlefield. He was human, yet better than a god. Have you ever seen an ordinary person whose kill reward was a godhood? That alone proves Jiang Yuan's status. If he were really that easy to kill, that would be too unbelievable.

Having failed in his mission, Shi Jingang looked back speechlessly. Regardless of how many people were following him, he shouted across the distance, "Brothers, stop following me like this. With so many of us going to kill Jiang Yuan, do you think he won't notice?"

These words revealed their grievances, which made the other alien races who were following them feel ashamed. They did want to follow behind and get some benefits, but they did not expect that their concealment skills were not good enough, which allowed Jiang Yuan to discover them in advance and escape.

“Brother Jin Gang, we don’t want to join either, but killing Jiang Yuan is the common wish of all our fellow Alliance members. We also want to contribute to this campaign!” someone shamelessly said, perfectly describing their desire for a share of the spoils as fulfilling the great ambition of the alien race.

Shi Jingang: "..."

What the hell do you take me for?! I may be a member of the Stone Clan, but my brain isn't entirely made of stone!

Although Shi Jingang wanted to punch someone, he still maintained his honest and simple attitude and said, "Since it's for the sake of our fellow Alliance members, I'm willing to share the information, but..."

After pausing, Shi Jingang continued, "I need you to exchange something for me."

The Ten Thousand Mountains have been bustling with activity these past few days. Whether Shi Jingang is too honest or simply not very bright, he boasts to everyone he meets that he knows Jiang Yuan's whereabouts. As a result, he has exposed Jiang Yuan's location in just half a day, which has made other alien races restless.
