Chapter 549 - Won The Champions.h.i.+p And Retreated


Vincent took out the Cup of Fate. However, all the Phantoms did not know the effects of the Cup of Fate, so they continued to rush toward Vincent.


When the dark purple light flashed, there were only a dozen Phantoms left around the ring. They stood on the spot with blank expressions.


One of the Phantoms looked around in disbelief and asked with a blank expression, "What happened just now? Where are the others?"


The remaining Phantoms were unable to explain what had happened.


Soon, a steady and rhythmic sound of footsteps was heard.


Vincent held the Cup of Fate in his hands and walked to the edge of the arena with a calm expression. He looked at the remaining Phantoms and said softly, "I didn"t expect for there to be so many Phantoms. Only a few of you are above level 50. You should be the confidants that Kyle is going to nurture for this year"s academy compet.i.tion, right? Oh, that"s right! One of you should be Jerome"s spy too. He"s here to monitor my partic.i.p.ation in the compet.i.tion!"


After hearing what Vincent said, the surviving Phantoms subconsciously looked at each other. The vast majority of them stood closely together, leaving behind a Phantom who was embarra.s.sed.


Vincent had already escaped from Jerome"s control. Anyone with discerning eyes could tell. Therefore, the only one who could save the remaining Phantoms was the powerful Prince Kyle.


Jerome"s subordinate had originally wanted to blend in with the crowd and wait for Prince Kyle to save him. However, he did not expect Vincent to expose him.


"You, you have never thought of serving His Highness Jerome! Now, you deliberately killed His Highness Kyle"s subordinate. Your intentions are truly unfathomable! As long as His Highness Kyle makes a move, everything will be revealed. You are the real culprit that caused the misunderstanding between the two princes!"


The isolated Phantom could only point at Vincent and criticize him in a moment of desperation. Everything that he said was in line with the truth!


Vincent smiled indifferently and said in a cold tone, "You"re right, basically all of you are right! But unfortunately, you have no chance to get out alive!"


As soon as he finished speaking, Vincent raised his hand and aimed at the bottom of the ring.


The Phantoms retreated and got into a defensive stance. They were ready to defend against Vincent"s attack.


"Spirit Binding!" said Vincent softly.


However, nothing happened. All the Phantoms were still standing in the ring safe and sound, their eyes full of confusion.


Someone soon noticed that the bodies that were lying on the ground suddenly floated up. They all raised their heads and looked at the high and mighty Vincent with pious expressions.


Someone finally realized that there was a problem with Vincent"s ident.i.ty and asked loudly in a panic, "What, what ability is this? According to the records, the human Vincent doesn"t have such an ability. Who are you?"


"Who am I? Of course, I"m Vincent himself!" shouted Vincent coldly.


He then raised his hand to pull out the Return Journey of the Dead from his waist. Countless blade auras instantly erupted and killed the remaining Phantoms.


From the first day Vincent partic.i.p.ated in the compet.i.tion, he had discovered that the Phantom Race had an extremely big weakness. Although their levels were much higher than the humans", they did not have any abilities of their own. They could only rely on replicating the talents and skills of the humans. Therefore, these level 50 Phantoms were only able to use the abilities of level 6 or level 7 humans. They were far from being able to display their full strength.


However, Vincent had three X-Cla.s.s skills, as well as the Art of Heaven"s Will and endless killing intent. He had also grasped many G.o.d-level abilities. His battle prowess far surpa.s.sed that of other creatures of the same level. He could easily suppress these Phantoms whose strength were far weaker than his.


Following that, Vincent once again used the Spirit Binding command and summoned the remaining Phantoms" souls.


"Spirit Binding!" shouted Vincent.


All the spirits rushed into his body, leaving no traces behind.


Vincent waved his hand in satisfaction. A fire snake appeared out of thin air, burning the Phantom corpses on the ground into ashes.


At this point, Vincent knew that even if he continued to stay, it would arouse the suspicion of Kyle and Jerome. However, he still decided to take the risk. Although one of his main goals was to obtain the half-finished universe-level equipment in Kyle"s hands, he was more focused on the souls of the Phantom Race.


Vincent was not a greedy person. However, he was also a treasure hunter who would not let go of the opportunity to obtain treasures.


The most valuable treasure of the Phantom Race was not the half-finished universe-level equipment, but the Phantom Race"s natural replication authority and replication laws. Only by obtaining these two G.o.d-level abilities would Vincent"s trip be worth it.


Furthermore, Vincent had once killed the Phantoms that impersonated the G.o.d-slaying squad and controlled their souls. Back then, he had also checked the memories of the Phantoms, but he could not find any traces of the G.o.d-level abilities.


This meant that the low-level Phantoms did not understand their own abilities. Therefore, the only ones who might know about the replication authority and replication laws were the higher-level Phantom experts.


All the Phantoms who were above level 50 were Vincent"s targets that day. He would not leave until he collected the souls of the Phantom experts.


After dealing with the Phantoms" corpses, Vincent raised his hand and snapped his fingers, causing the curtain of fire that shrouded the arena to slowly recede. He stood alone on the arena. He raised his head and looked at the high viewing platform.


Kyle stood in front of the viewing platform and looked at Vincent, who was unharmed. He could not help but widen his eyes. The exquisite box in his hand creaked as he clenched it.


As the most powerful prince in the Phantom Race, Kyle liked the feeling of being in control the most. This was because it suited his high and mighty status.


However, Vincent"s current performance made him completely lose control of the situation. The strong doubts and unknowns made him feel deep fear and anger.


Jerome"s reaction was even more crazy. He kept shaking his head with a puzzled face and muttered, "Impossible, this is impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"


Vincent paid no attention to the neurotic behavior of the two brothers on the viewing platform. He said loudly, "Your Highness Kyle, now that all the contestants have died, I should be the champion without any objections! I don"t know if you can still fulfill your previous promise and give me the prize that belongs to the champion!"


Kyle took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, "I have never gone back on my words! The gift that belongs to the champion will naturally be handed over to you. However, it will depend on whether you have the ability to take it!"


Kyle then threw the exquisite brocade box in his hand down to Vincent.


The brocade box was like a cannonball that left the launcher. It stirred up ripples in the air and shot straight at Vincent.


As a level 70 Holy Phantom, no matter how weak the human that Kyle had replicated was, the power that he just showed was frightening. Even Vincent could not catch the brocade box easily.


However, Vincent still did not panic. His gaze was fixed on Kyle and Jerome. When the brocade box flew in front of him, Vincent gently raised two fingers and whispered, "Modify gravity!"


The brocade box that was about to collide with Vincent suddenly stopped in mid-air. After a violent shake, it fell powerlessly into Vincent"s palm without causing the slightest tremor.


The modification authority allows one to modify any rule on any target. Vincent applied gravity on the brocade box that was shooting toward him, cancelling out the strong force without causing any damage.


However, because of the multiple pressures, the brocade box shattered into powder the moment it touched Vincent"s palm, leaving behind a black ring that looked like metal or natural ore.


Vincent felt something cold in his hand and immediately looked down. He soon saw a string of words appearing before his eyes.


Equipment Name: Rama Ring


Equipment Origin: A relic of the Rama Race. It belonged to the last tyrant of the Rama Race. The ring was forged after collectively refining the entire race. It contained a tremendous amount of resentment and could continuously affect the hearts of the surrounding creatures, making them irritable and cold-blooded. Moreover, the scope of its influence would continuously expand over time until it affected an entire world! Only when the Rama ring left the current world would its influence gradually decline. Other than that, there would be no other way to restrain it!


Vincent subconsciously sighed, "It really is a divine artifact!"


This ring had not yet completed its final forging. However, it had already possessed the power to affect an entire world. If it was forged into complete equipment, perhaps its level would continue to rise.


However, the Rama Race had been completely exterminated, and was destined to be unable to provide new materials to improve the Rama Ring. Furthermore, Vincent would never do anything to harm a living creature for a piece of equipment.


Moreover, this ring had other benefits for Vincent!


"Many thanks, Your Highness. Now that I"ve obtained the reward I wanted, I won"t disturb you two brothers. I"ll leave first!"


Vincent wore the Rama ring on his left index finger. He bade farewell to Kyle and was prepared to leave.


However, Kyle"s eyes were filled with killing intent. He said coldly, "Leave? Do you actually think you can leave now?"


In Kyle"s eyes, Vincent"s various actions were all a threat to his status. He had to kill Vincent.


However, Jerome, who had been trembling in his seat, suddenly rushed down from the viewing platform and shouted, "Brother, don"t worry. I will definitely get rid of this b*stard today and avenge you!"


Kyle did not expect Jerome to make the first move, but he paid the most attention to his status. After thinking for a moment, he stopped and did not make a move. He wanted Jerome to work hard for him.


Vincent looked at Jerome who was the first to charge at him. There was no fear at all in his eyes. Flames ignited in his hands, and he took the initiative to meet him.


Jerome looked at the flames in Vincent"s hands. He did not retreat at all. Instead, he melted his arms and wrapped them around Vincent"s hands like a long snake.


Vincent could not help but raise his eyebrows when he saw this. Jerome had replicated him so he should have the same abilities as him. However, Vincent did not possess the ability that Jerome was using. This meant that Jerome was using an ability that belonged to the royal family.


Vincent soon felt a weak electric current instantly spreading throughout his entire body. It was as if a pair of eyes had seen through him from the inside out.


Jerome"s lips curled into a confident smile as he looked at Vincent. He asked, "As expected, no wonder your performance is so different. I should have thought that you were not a Phantom! But Vincent himself, right?"


At the same time, Jerome"s appearance changed slightly. There was a sense of vicissitudes and aloofness, and the temperament on his body seemed to have matured a lot. He had replicated the current Vincent.


Vincent looked at Jerome"s current appearance and said indifferently, "It seems that you are much smarter than Kyle. You were actually able to forcefully discover my ident.i.ty, and even succeeded in replicating my current strength!"


Jerome"s long snake arms became normal once again. He pinched Vincent"s burning wrists fiercely. He was completely unafraid of the burning flames. He said with a sinister smile, "I have to thank you for letting me witness such powerful strength! I really can"t imagine how much good luck the Human Race has, to be able to produce a member as powerful as you!"


Vincent did not care that Jerome had obtained all his abilities. He only said indifferently, "My ability is not something that can be easily obtained. Since you have already obtained it, you must be prepared to pay the price for it!"


As soon as he finished speaking, Vincent suddenly kicked Jerome"s abdomen. Jerome, who lacked combat experience, was not able to activate his fire spiritualization in advance and was directly sent flying by Vincent"s kick.


After breaking free from Jerome"s restraints, Vincent did not hesitate at all. He turned around and opened a s.p.a.ce door, entering it in a flash.


Jerome immediately spread his flaming wings on his back and steadied himself in the air. He looked at the s.p.a.ce door that had disappeared with Vincent and snorted coldly, "Isn"t it just modification authority? Let"s see where you can hide today!"


After saying that, Jerome raised his hand and snapped his fingers. However, the s.p.a.ce in front of him did not change at all. This made him feel very surprised. He could not help but snap his fingers four more times.


"Modify and open the door! Open the door for me quickly!"


After several attempts, Jerome still could not open the s.p.a.ce door that was connected to the parallel world. This made him suspect that he had not succeeded in replicating Vincent"s abilities.


However, he had indeed entered the fire spiritualization state, and his flaming wings were spread wide open. This proved that his replication of Vincent had indeed succeeded but he did not know why he was unable to open the s.p.a.ce door.


Kyle, who was on the high platform, suddenly said in a cold tone, "Jerome, I did not expect your intelligence to far exceed my imagination!"


Jerome turned to look at Kyle without the slightest hint of fear in his eyes. Previously, he did not have the courage to face the powerful Kyle, but as he had obtained Vincent"s brand-new abilities, his confidence soared to an unprecedented level. His patience toward Kyle had finally run out.


"Big Brother. After enduring you for so long, I can finally tell you the truth. For so many years, I have always felt that you are not worthy to become the next Phantom emperor. You"re not even worthy of becoming a member of the royal family. This is because I"ve never seen a second person as stupid as you in my entire life!"


Kyle did not expect that his younger brother, who had always been submissive in front of him, to insult him so arrogantly. He roared with murderous intent, "Alright, today I"ll tear you into pieces, grind your bones, and scatter your ashes. Let"s see who"s the real idiot between you and me!"


As soon as he finished speaking, Kyle jumped down from above. He hooked his slender, pale fingers and slapped directly toward Jerome.


Jerome raised his hand and clenched it in front of him. An endless stream of flames condensed into a long blade in his palm. It carried endless battle intent and stopped Kyle"s hands.


"Boom!"


The aftershock from the exchange between the two brothers instantly destroyed the remaining houses in the entire city. However, neither of them was able to benefit from this exchange. Although Kyle"s realm was higher, he had not replicated any high-level abilities.


Although Jerome had most of Vincent"s abilities, he could only make up for the gap between him and Kyle. Therefore, the two brothers could only spit out blood and fly away in different directions.


At that moment, Vincent was quietly standing in the s.p.a.ce tunnel. He was watching the battle between Jerome and Kyle through the transparent s.p.a.ce barrier.


"The Flaming Sun Divine Body, the eight forms of Heaven"s Will have all been replicated. However, he does not have the fire G.o.d avatar, nor does he have any signs of a divine personality. It seems that special abilities with uniqueness cannot be replicated!"


Vincent carefully observed Jerome"s every move, seriously a.n.a.lyzing the characteristics of the replication authority and the replication laws. He was playing with a small token in his hand.


The s.p.a.ce tunnel was originally created by all the members of the Lingluo Race. However, only the tunnel token could truly control the s.p.a.ce tunnel. This was also the reason why Vincent dared to hide in the s.p.a.ce tunnel in front of Jerome.


The tunnel token was his backup plan.


Since the Phantom Race could replicate anyone, then everyone had to be prepared to become a subst.i.tute. Vincent looked at the figure outside the tunnel that looked exactly like him, his face full of ridicule.


As the battle between Kyle and Jerome entered a stalemate, a violent tremor suddenly came from the distant horizon, followed by a huge aura instantly attacking. It swept over the entire world almost instantly.


"B*stard, no matter where you hide today, I will completely wipe you and your race out of the Black Hole"s myriad races!"


Gajero"s furious roar instantly spread throughout the entire Phantom World.. Other than Vincent himself, who was hiding in the s.p.a.ce tunnel and did not hear it, the entire Phantom Race looked up at the horizon as if they were facing a great enemy.
