High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 1013 - 469: New Achievement, Defying the Immortals

Huanglong Civilization.

At the very moment the Dao body fell, Jiang Ye, who was in the Bright Heart Hall, also received the system message immediately.

[Detected that you fought across levels with the power of a higher being and successfully broke through defense of a Martial Path Human Immortal!]

[Unlocked Title: Defying Immortal]

[Reward: Mayfly Shaking the Tree (Upgraded): Against opponents with a higher realm, increase damage by 300%, with a chance to cause an additional 1000% critical hit; against Martial Path Human Immortals, deal triple damage additionally.]

——

"A new achievement?"

"Martial Path Human Immortal?" Jiang Ye was slightly stunned, then instantly understood.

According to the system’s judgment, the term for gods is Martial Path Human Immortal?

After ascension, one becomes an immortal.

Reasonable.

"Mayfly Shaking the Tree, upgraded?" Jiang Ye looked at this reward, then couldn’t help but show a smile: "Against gods, deal triple damage additionally?"

Additional damage is multiplying the base damage.

In other words, once the 1000% critical hit is triggered, that means 90 times the damage!

"What a pity."

"If I had this ability before." Jiang Ye felt a slight regret: "Maybe it wouldn’t have been so tragic..."

Just as Jiang Ye was silently sighing.

Suddenly.

"Ye Jiang."

"Just now, the Cai Kun Civilization announced to the entire White Dragon Star System Group." A voice sounded in Jiang Ye’s mind: "Blue Star has become a protected civilization of the Cai Kun Civilization."

"Blue Star can be unharmed now."

A figure condensed and appeared.

"Teacher?" Jiang Ye immediately stood up, it was Venerable Bai who transmitted voice to him.

But then.

A rich expression of astonishment appeared on Jiang Ye’s face: "Cai Kun Civilization? Protection?"

The Cai Kun Civilization is the upper-level civilization of the Huanglong Civilization.

It is a level-three Starry Sky Civilization!

"No wonder Thunder Ash suddenly retreated." Jiang Ye realized in his heart: "Did they receive the message?"

But quickly.

"Teacher, according to interstellar regulations." Jiang Ye couldn’t help but wonder: "A low-level civilization like Blue Star is usually only taken under the wing of the nearest higher-level civilization, right?"

In the White Dragon Star System Group, there are only two level-three civilizations.

The Celestial Battle Civilization and Cai Kun Civilization.

The Cangxu Civilization is under the Celestial Battle Civilization, thus Blue Star should be closer to the Celestial Battle Civilization.

According to regulations, for Cai Kun Civilization to accept Blue Star, wouldn’t it still need the consent of the Celestial Battle Civilization?

"This regulation does not apply to level-three civilizations."

"After all, it was set by the level-three civilizations themselves, namely the original White Dragon Civilization." Venerable Bai laughed: "Moreover, Cai Kun Civilization isn’t directly including Blue Star in its domain."

"Protected Civilization?" Jiang Ye also understood.

Then he showed a doubtful expression: "What does this mean?"

"This protection does not equate to subordination." Venerable Bai said: "Blue Star isn’t a part of the Cai Kun Civilization, but it is still under the protection of Cai Kun Civilization."

Jiang Ye was slightly stunned.

Then he thought for a moment and quickly grasped the meaning of Venerable Bai.

To put it straightforwardly, the level of a protected civilization is lower than a subordinate civilization.

After all, so-called protection isn’t in Cai Kun Civilization’s territory. Cai Kun Civilization’s protection seems like a simple announcement meant to deter malicious threats.

But when actual interests are involved, Cai Kun Civilization might not step in fully to assist.

"No matter what."

"This crisis is finally resolved." Jiang Ye felt relieved.

Thunder Ash’s retreat was enough to prove the weight of this ’announcement’.

But soon.

"Why did Cai Kun Civilization suddenly protect Blue Star?" Jiang Ye wondered: "Could it be because I hurt Thunder Ash?"

In the future timeline, this is a key point.

The truth is precisely this.

Once he successfully injured Thunder Ash, Thunder Ash voluntarily retreated.

"I once asked the previous Lord of Huanglong."

"That person is now within the Cai Kun Civilization." Venerable Bai said: "The response given was that Blue Star is destined to face this tribulation."

"Hence, the resolution doesn’t lie with external forces, but within Blue Star Civilization itself."

"Now that Cai Kun Civilization has proactively offered protection, presumably Blue Star Civilization has found a way to break the tribulation." Venerable Bai sighed: "The Blue Star Civilization where you belong is truly extraordinary."

Jiang Ye was slightly stunned, destined to face this tribulation?

Referring to Thunder Ash?

"Teacher, what do you mean by tribulation?" Jiang Ye asked curiously.

"Tribulation is a cosmic law." Venerable Bai laughed: "These are far from your understanding, you just need to know that tribulations cannot be interfered by external forces."

"Just like Blue Star’s tribulation this time."

"If Cai Kun Civilization intervened prematurely, not only could it not break the tribulation, it would invite an even greater tribulation for both sides." Venerable Bai said: "Only after Blue Star Civilization itself breaks the tribulation can external forces interfere."

This is also why it is so certain that Blue Star has already broken the tribulation.

If Blue Star hasn’t broken the tribulation, Cai Kun Civilization wouldn’t step in.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ye was fully enlightened.

"So."

"The supposed way to break the tribulation was by injuring the god." Jiang Ye couldn’t help but marvel: "It truly was difficult enough."

It should be noted that with the support of planetary will and the One Hundred Billion God Refining Array, he was still unable to harm the god.

In the end, it was only with the ’Mayfly Shaking the Tree’ thirty times critical hit that he barely broke through the god’s defense.

Anyone else.

Could not have achieved this step.

"Tribulation..."

"Why did Blue Star face such a tribulation?" Jiang Ye was also filled with confusion.

"Alright."

"I came here mainly to inform you." Venerable Bai patted Jiang Ye’s shoulder, smiling warmly: "You don’t have to worry about Blue Star’s matters."

"Yes, thank you, Venerable." Jiang Ye cupped his hands.

The fact that the person came to inform him immediately showed that they placed high importance on the matter.
