In the dense forest, terrifying demonic energy and demonic evil spirits rolled, and large trees fell with a rumble.

In the area where the Chosen were, divine power radiated like the morning sun, piercing the darkness that covered the sky and earth.

Both sides erupted in loud screams from time to time, but more often than not, they were blunt blows to the bone and blows to the flesh.

Low-level demons and divine power cultivators lacked long-range attack capabilities.

However, there were also many Ming Venerables and fourth- and fifth-level Demon Venerables in the center of the battlefield, and the battle between them was even more intense. Fourth-level Ming Venerables could already use artifacts to unleash divine power, and fifth-level Ming Venerables could even use holy magic to affect a wide area, so there would still be occasional bursts of holy light and demonic energy rising into the sky in the dense forest.

Suddenly, the demons and the fiercely fighting Chosen looked in Ji Jiayu's direction. Although most of them didn't cultivate demonic thoughts or spiritual power, they all instinctively sensed a tremendous aura emanating from there, an aura so powerful it could destroy the heavens and the earth.

The fifth and sixth-rank Demon Venerables present were powerful and felt it more clearly. Of course, part of the reason was because they didn't belong to the Blue Star of Law and were naturally repelled by the power of the Blue Star of Law.

At this moment, I saw that in the area with Ji Jiayu as the center and a radius of thirty meters, a colorful light flashed rapidly, and the light seemed to be composed of countless tiny elemental particles.

There was the fire element emitting extreme heat, the ice element freezing the water vapor in the air, the earth element making the earth tremble, the thunder element making the sky faintly explode with thunder, the wood element making trees grow rapidly, the light element illuminating the darkness, and the darkness reappearing.

These were the elemental powers of the blue domain.

"Didn't he start cultivating after coming to Paradise Island?"

"How can he manipulate elemental power? Furthermore, his elemental power has reached the Ming Sheng level, right?"

Seeing Ji Jiayu's radiant figure, many voters were shocked.

Ding Lu and Ye Zihang, who were familiar with Ji Jiayu, were even more so. The other electors could find some excuse, but they couldn't, because they knew that Ji Jiayu had started cultivating with them. What was going on?

Ye Zihang was suddenly a little afraid. Fortunately, Ji Jiayu had a good temper, and fortunately, he hadn't provoked her too much at the time. Otherwise, with her elemental cultivation, wouldn't she have easily injured herself?

Back in the present, more and more elemental particles were permeating Ji Jiayu's body, and as they collided with each other, they became increasingly violent, as if they were flowing. All of this happened in an instant. Before the sixth-level demon closest to Ji Jiayu could react, all the elemental particles suddenly exploded in all directions, triggering countless elemental visions.

"Rumble!"

The earth rolled like waves, and dozens of sharp earth spikes protruded from underground, leaving the five fifth-level demon venerables with nowhere to hide. They could only use their own demonic energy to resist.

However, this was of little use.

"Puff!"

The protruding earth thorns pierced the demonic devil qi of the two peak fifth-level Demon Venerables, piercing their arms. In pain, they hurriedly adjusted their stance. But in the surging black clouds in the sky, more than a dozen thick purple lightning bolts suddenly shattered.

The thunderbolts flashed, accurately striking the peak fifth-level Demon Venerables. Upon impact, the black armor on their bodies turned into gray armor, scattering it like dust when the wind blew.

The surface of their originally solid skin was covered with black blood lines like cobwebs.

"Boom!"

Clusters of purple flames appeared out of thin air, and along with them appeared large, sharp ice picks.

Not only that, the majestic dark element devoured the light of the fifth-level Demon Venerables, and the excessively bright light shattered their demonic skin.

In just a second or two, they suffered countless heavy blows, leaving them with no time to defend themselves, nor were they able to defend themselves. The nearby sixth-level Demon Venerable was outside the elemental explosion's circle, and there was no way to save him. When he entered the circle, his originally ugly face gradually turned pale as paper.

When he was outside the circle just now, he had a clear sense of the elemental explosion centered on Ji Jiayu. Its power was immense, and it had likely exceeded his endurance. But only after he entered the circle did he clearly understand that his sense of it was correct, not incorrect, incorrect, and utterly incorrect.

This was the limit the limit of a seventh-level Demon Emperor was no less than that!

After the elemental explosion destroyed the five peak fifth-level Demon Venerables, they began to concentrate their attacks on this sixth-level Demon Venerable.

Seeing this, the sixth-level Demon Venerables and the other fifth-level Demon Venerables in the distance all wanted to retreat to help surround Ji Jiayu, but suddenly, the electors' attacks more than doubled, making it impossible for them to escape.

They saw the elemental explosion on Ji Jiayu's side, and naturally, the electors saw it too, and they were watching the entire time. Seeing that Ji Jiayu possessed the ability to annihilate many high-level Demon Venerables, how could the voters give more demon lords the opportunity to surround Ji Jiayu?

"Boom!"

Under the majestic explosion of elemental power, the sixth-level Demon Venerable was forced to keep his demons close to his body. He was very close to Ji Jiayu, and his spiritual power could clearly sense that when Ji Jiayu unleashed this elemental explosion, his life force was rapidly draining.

The loss of vitality wouldn't affect Ji Jiayu's cultivation, but it would affect his lifespan. In other words, if he used his life to use this method, he would die.

"You're going to die." The sixth-level Demon Venerable was being attacked from all directions and suddenly shouted at Ji Jiayu, "Stop now, let me go. Let's be safe, okay? Otherwise, you'll die too."

Ji Jiayu heard the sixth-level Demon Venerable's roar, his expression unchanged, and he was completely unmoved.

Of course, he knew he would die if he did this, but was he afraid? He definitely wasn't afraid. Why had he entered the Holy Shine Realm? Wasn't it just to save voters?

He wasn't born evil or holy, but growing up, Fang Xing had taught him countless times with practical actions that the strong should protect the weak.

With great ability comes great responsibility.

It was precisely because of this belief that Fang Xing would go to the Leju Orphanage to protect him and his other friends and allow them to grow up safely. But it was precisely because of this belief that Fang Xing ultimately died on his journey to discover the truth.

Now that he had grown up, become stronger, and become someone like Fang Xing, who possessed the ability to protect the weak, he must protect the weak.

Furthermore, it was also atonement for his sins.

A few months ago, when he was found by Chen Miaoyi, he had been in a coma due to Fang Xing's death.

After his coma, he was still at the original location of the Leju Orphanage, but the orphanage and the surrounding area had turned into a lifeless place of death.

At that time, his heart was filled with horror and confusion. Why had this happened? Where was Fang Xing's body? What about the orphanage, the caretakers, and the orphans there?

All of this was gone, as if it had evaporated.

Just as he was at a loss, Chen Miaoyi suddenly and miraculously appeared to him and invited him to go to the Chenghai Sacred Paradise Island and become a selector. As a condition, she would tell him what had happened previously and grant him the power to find out the truth.

Thus, Ji Jiayu learned the origin of the scar on his forehead. It wasn't actually a scar, but rather a primordial pattern, its full name being the elemental pattern.

Chen Miaoyi said, "Only when the elemental bloodline is extremely rich will this kind of primordial pattern be produced." Although the primordial pattern represents a powerful elemental bloodline and extremely high talent, in many cases, people with the primordial pattern cannot cultivate elemental power because their perception of the elements is too strong, and their bodies will explode upon first absorbing elemental power.

"In the past, there were examples of successful elemental power cultivation using the Yuan Pattern, but that was when the Blue Domain was still guided by powerhouses of the Moon God level. Now, it seems that there are no Moon Gods in the Blue Domain, and cultivating Yuan Pattern geniuses has become impossible. However, this doesn't mean that those with the primordial pattern are useless. On the contrary, for a certain period of time, those with the primordial pattern were one of the most powerful weapons in the Blue Domain. Although they cannot cultivate elemental power, they themselves are the best carriers and guides for the elements. After special guidance, they can cause violent disturbances in the elements within a certain range, ultimately forming an elemental explosion. There was once a record of someone with the primordial pattern who hadn't cultivated killing a peak ninth-level demon emperor. However, the price was also extremely heavy: the loss of vitality and death."

"You just accidentally triggered an elemental explosion. Although the power wasn't great and the impact wasn't extensive, you still lost over ten years of lifespan."

"Come with me to Paradise Island. I'll give you an ability that truly belongs to you." In the end, Ji Jiayu clearly agreed to Chen Miaoyi.

During the time from Guangming City to Paradise Island, Ji Jiayu remained silent almost every day, feeling pain and regret.

Although he had done it unintentionally, he had, after all, hurt so many innocent orphans, and they were all friends he had grown up with since childhood!

The pain in his heart was imaginable.

For several nights, he even wanted to end his life and leave, but Fang Xing's dying instructions appeared in his mind, making him give up on that idea, and he then managed to reverse his thoughts.

Yes, he had caused the tragedy at the orphanage, but he wasn't the culprit. The culprit was the one who killed Fang Xing, and he was the mastermind behind his painstaking investigation.

He couldn't die until he had investigated the truth clearly and fulfilled Fang Xing's final wish, and he still had to live well!

Only... He seemed about to go back on his words.

"Aren't you afraid of death? You're still young, you still have a future!"

Listening to the angry yet terrified shouts of the Sixth-Rank Demon Venerable on the other side, Ji Jiayu remained unmoved, however, the other electorate's expression changed drastically.

They all knew that Ji Jiayu had just defeated five fifth-rank Demon Venerables, and that continuing to kill a sixth-rank Demon Venerable would likely be no simple matter, and they would have to pay a certain price. But what they didn't expect was that the price Ji Jiayu would pay would actually be his life.

But at this critical moment, they couldn't say anything, because if Ji Jiayu didn't do this, they would all die.

Ji Jiayu had sacrificed himself for them, but they were too selfish to speak up to stop him. Many people felt guilty, and their eyes gradually became moist.
