Monster Paradise

800 years ago, 3000 dimensional gates opened across the entire world. In that moment, it was as if 3000 different colored eyes opened across the world as hordes of monsters swarmed out of these gates like tears. Some could destroy city walls with one strike; They had bodies the size of a giant and fed on humans Some latched onto humans, absorbing their bodies’ nutrients and ensla

Chapter 865: Two Governors

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The next morning, Tan Lang arrived at the government residence because he doubted the prophecy. However, the door of the government residence was closed and the entrance was blocked by a team of honorary immortal guards.

Under normal circumstances, the door of the government residence would be opened at 8 a.m. sharp. There would be two honorary immortal guards stationed in front of the entrance and four people to work in shifts. The team would change every three days. Other than the leader of the team, the members would take turns to be on duty.

In the government residence, there was a team of 13 honorary immortal guards that was responsible to be on patrol duty. The leader would take the lead and the team would be rotated each day.

The entrance was now blocked by a team of honorary immortal guards. That being said, something must have happened at the government residence.

Tan Lang frowned and rushed to the leader of the team. "What happened?"

The leader could recognize Tan Lang at first glance and he was familiar with the people from the Heaven Alliance. Aside from his sleeping hours, Tang Ning from the Heaven Alliance had been staying at the government residence most of the time. He knew that Tan Lang was the leader of the Heaven Alliance and he exuded an aura that was much stronger than that of the governor.

"Mr. Tan Lang…" The leader seemed troubled as he was being questioned. "The deputy governor instructed that we're not allowed to reveal anything that happens in the government residence. I can't tell you anything. Please don't ask about it anymore. I'm sorry. The entrance to the government residence has been blocked and nobody can enter or leave." The leader shook his head.

"Alright, I don't want to trouble you. You may look for us at the inn if there's any problem that you can't settle." Tan Lang took a glimpse at the door that had been shut and left as if he had something in mind.

Returning to the inn, Tan Lang gathered everybody and told them what he had encountered at the entrance of the government residence.

"Any chance that an unusual phenomenon has occurred at the government residence?" Lin Huang was the first one to ask after hearing the report.

He actually knew what was happening at the government residence through Bloody's Leech Pods. However, he could not tell them that.

"That's possible," Li Jia agreed with Lin Huang, "If the government residence was under attack, they shouldn't be reacting this way. Furthermore, the inn is less than a kilometer away from the government residence. If there's a battle, it's impossible for us not to be able to sense anything. However, it's possible for the unusual phenomenon to appear without a trace."

"If it's something serious, we shall stay here and not go hunting for monsters. Let's wait for the news from the government residence." Tan Lang was still worried about it.

"There's no need to do so. Li Jia and Shen Tao are here. Don't worry and go hunt for monsters." Lin Huang did not want Tan Lang and the rest to slow his progress down. If they did not go on a monster hunt, he would obtain lesser crystal cores. "If there's no news from the government residence for three days, are you going to wait here for three days?"

"The Herculean King shall stay here. You need an imperial monster for safety purposes." Tan Lang was worried about Lin Huang's safety as Chan Dou had asked him to take good care of Lin Xie.

"Ask the Herculean King whether if I'm lacking imperial monsters or not." Lin Huang shook his head and smiled.

The Herculean King turned its head and looked at Tan Lang. "Among all the imperial monsters he has, I'm considered as the one with the weakest abilities."

Everybody from the Heaven Alliance was astonished when they heard that and they stared at Lin Huang in surprise.

"The Herculean King is just being humble," Lin Huang said with a smile.

Of course, the Herculean King knew that Lin Huang actually wanted to hide his abilities, so it did not say anything else.

"Oh, you really scared the crap out of me!" Listening to Lin Huang's explanation, Tan Lang then looked at the Herculean King with a burning desire while thinking to himself, 'It knows how to be humble. Its intelligence is comparable to humans.'

Realizing that Tan Lang was looking at itself with a strange expression, the Herculean King that was initially standing on the left side of Lin Huang stepped back.

"It doesn't want me." Seeing what the Herculean King did, Tan Lang became gloomy.

After the discussion, they decided to follow last night's plan whereby Lin Huang and the three others would stay there and the Herculean King and the rest would go on a monster hunt.

After Tan Lang and the rest had left, Tang Ning headed towards the government residence to ask for more information. Lin Huang and the others stayed at the inn.

After a short while, Tang Ning returned. He was stopped by the honorary immortal guard outside the government residence as well and did not manage to get any useful information from them.

Seeing Tang Ning being blocked, Li Jia was triggered.

"It sucks to be kept completely in the dark about this. Let the bugs detect what's actually going on."

"We must stay calm," Lin Huang disagreed with Li Jia. "The government residence has blocked the information. This means that they don't want anyone else to know about this. Something strange just happened to the whole world. The government residence doesn't completely trust us. If we were to investigate this, it'll be fine if they don't discover us. However, they're going to lose trust in us if they find out. Especially at this point of time when it's been proven that there are sects and human immortals backing the government residence up, we have to build a good relationship with the government residence. Don't get ourselves into too much trouble.

"Moreover, if the government residence needs help, they'll definitely look for us. If they don't, it simply means that they're capable of solving the problem and they don't need our help. If we were to investigate this by ourselves, they might think that we have other intentions."

"What Lin Xie said makes sense." Shen Tao nodded his head in agreement with Lin Huang.

"Let's not think about this anymore. Get on with your work. Otherwise, take a good rest." After Lin Huang finished his sentence, they went back to their own rooms.

The three of them then exchanged glances with each other and left.

In the afternoon, the deputy governor came to the inn along with the honorary immortal guards. They were looking for Lin Huang and the rest.

Obviously, they were incapable of solving the problem and they had to ask for help from the Heaven Alliance.

Looking at the Heaven Alliance members, the deputy governor felt awkward.

"What's happening? Can you please tell us now?" Li Jia had been itching to ask about this for the entire afternoon. He finally had the chance to do so now.

"An unusual phenomenon has occurred at the government residence this morning. There are now two governors," said the deputy governor helplessly. "It took us the entire afternoon and we can't figure out who's the real governor…"

"Are you sure that it's caused by the unusual phenomenon? Could it be somebody disguising themselves as the governor?" Tang Ning asked.

"I don't think so. He knows a lot about the secrets of the sects, including the governor's private matters. No outsider would know this." He Tao, the deputy governor, shook his head. "The only possibility must be in relation to the unusual phenomenon."

"What can we do?" Lin Huang asked. He had already known about this early in the morning because Bloody's Leech Pods had been monitoring the situation in the government residence. However, he was unable to identify who the real governor was through Bloody's screen.

"We have no idea what to do. That's why we're here to ask for your opinion." He Tao looked helpless.

"Perhaps there's nothing we can help since you're unable to recognize him as well." Shen Tao shook his head.

"Let's go and have a look." Li Jia was interested in this dilemma. "However, we can't promise that we'll know what to do."

"Alright!" He Tao had no other choice, allowing Lin Huang and the rest to give it a try.

Chapter 866: I Think It's A Steal

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Huang and the rest followed Deputy Governor He Tao to the city. The city gates remained closed just like they were in the morning. However, they were not stopped by the honorary immortal guard troop this time. Instead, He Tao brought Lin Huang and the rest to the government residence as he wished.

He Tao brought a few of them straight to the meeting hall.

There were two governors sitting in all seriousness in the meeting hall. They were drinking tea and they did not even bother to look at each other.

To Lin Huang and the rest, the two looked exactly the same. There seemed to be no difference between them.

They had large eyes, thick brows, and a mustache. They had the same body size and height. Even the way they drank their tea was the same.

"You guys are here!" Seeing Lin Huang and the rest, both of them stood up almost at the same time to greet them.

Shen Tao stepped forward and walked around them, chuckling with his eyes wide. "The both of you really look the same!"

As Lin Huang observed them, he fixed his eyes on the duo's storage rings on their left hands. He then asked the Deputy Governor upon noticing that the two storage rings were exactly the same. "Have you checked their storage rings?"

"We have." Deputy Governor He Tao shook his head helplessly. "The items in both rings are exactly the same. So are the inner garments they're wearing. There's nothing more, nothing less. They've also gotten us to check the weapon armors which ownership has been claimed. Theoretically, it's impossible for there to be a second Blood Dragon Halberd, but after our thorough investigation, we found out that the duo's Blood Dragon Halberds are real."

"How is it impossible to have a second Blood Dragon Halberd?" Lin Huang asked immediately.

"It was my master who made the Blood Dragon Halberd exclusively for me. The main material to make it was the entire spine of the one and only blood dragon," the governor on the left explained, "There's no other blood dragon in the world."

"My master was dying when he was making the Blood Dragon Halberd. He passed away on the third day the Blood Dragon Halberd was made," added the governor on the right.

Lin Huang went completely silent after hearing that and he did not ask further.

"Since you've gone through the things that they have, how about their bodies?" Li Jia asked.

"The governors initiated us to check their bodies," He Tao responded, "Not just the appearance of their bodies, but even the inside of their bodies look exactly the same. There's no difference between them."

"May I investigate further?" Li Jia looked at both of them. "You might feel a little uncomfortable during the process. I need you to tolerate it a little."

"No problem."

"I'm fine too."

Li Jia walked to them and held their arms in each of his hands. "Please don't resist."

As soon as he was done speaking, countless black bugs crawled out of his sleeves and burrowed into the skin on both of their arms.

They wanted to pull their arms back by instinct, but resisted the urge immediately, allowing the bugs to crawl into their bodies.

The bugs that Li Jia used this time were much smaller than those that he used for the investigation the last time. They were approximately a tenth of an ant. Completely black, they did not seem to have the ability to fly.

Those little bugs penetrated the duo's skin easily and disappeared into their bodies.

The two governors began having a slightly odd expression on their faces as soon as the bugs entered their body.

"It's a little ticklish. Please bear it, or else you'll chase the bugs away," Li Jia reminded.

Around five to six minutes later, the bugs returned to Li Jia's sleeves after crawling around their bodies twice.

The two governors were relieved.

Li Jia closed his eyes in silence for a little while after releasing both of their arms. He only opened his eyes later and shook his head helplessly. "I was checking their muscles and bones. I'm so sorry, but I don't find anything different between them."

"There's nothing else that I can do. They're all yours now." Li Jia looked at Lin Huang and the rest with his arms opened.

Tang Ning thought about it for a while and asked, "When was the first time the both of you met? What exactly happened?"

"I saw a person in my bed when I opened my eyes this morning." The governor on the left peeped at the one on his right as soon as he was done speaking.

"I've been busy the past few days and didn't get enough rest. Because I was exhausted last night, I slept all the way until the morning. When I woke up, just like he said, I noticed a person in my bed, which is ridiculous!" The governor on the right had a more detailed explanation.

"How could both of you not sense anything since someone appeared so close to you?" Tang Ning asked while frowning.

"I should've been able to sense it immediately under usual circumstances, but I really didn't sense anything this time. My mind was completely blank when I saw him. I thought I was hallucinating," explained the governor on the left.

"It's the same for me. I didn't sense anything. I just noticed a person sleeping next to me when I woke up." The governor on the right provided the same answer.

"Is there any surveillance around?" Tang Ning turned to ask Deputy Governor He Tao who was standing at the side.

"There's none in the bedroom, but there is at the entrance. I've already checked both surveillances at the bedroom entrance and didn't find anything out of the ordinary."

"Alright then. There's nothing I can do here." Tang Ning thought about it and realized there was no longer anything worth asking. The questions that he came up with had been asked by the government residence this morning.

The rest then looked pointedly at Shen Tao and Lin Huang.

Lin Huang turned to ask Shan Tao, "Do you have any suggestions?"

"No." Shen Tao shook his head. "I've been observing them when you guys asked your questions. The observation proved that they're the same person."

Lin Huang nodded while smiling. "You're right about that. Indeed, they are both Governor Tu Ming."

"Lin Xie, what do you mean?" Both of the governors were triggered upon hearing that.

"If I'm not mistaken, the phenomenon must've cloned another Governor Tu Ming. That's why we can't find anything different between them," Lin Huang voiced his observation, "When the both of you said it's impossible to have two Blood Dragon Halberds in this world, I suspected it might possibly be cloning done by the phenomenon's force. Governor Tu Ming isn't the only thing being cloned, but everything that comes with him was duplicated too. That's the reason why there are two storage rings with exactly the same contents and even two identical Blood Dragon Halberds."

"So, is there any way to identify which is the clone?" The two governors asked almost in unison.

"There's no way." Lin Huang shook his head. "Even the clone doesn't know he's a clone. With the complete memory of Governor Tu Ming, the clone thinks he's the real one."

"What should we do now?" Deputy Governor He Tao asked immediately.

"I don't think we should do anything about it." Lin Huang raised his brow. "Since the clone possesses Governor Tu Ming's complete memory and wouldn't do any harm to the government residence or the city, I don't think there's a need to distinguish them apart."

"Moreover, no one can tell who the real Governor Tu Ming is before the phenomenon fades away. So, why waste all this effort in futile?"

"But who knows when is the phenomenon going away? It wouldn't affect much if we don't have a governor for a couple of days, but what if the phenomenon goes on for a couple of months or even years? Without the governor, there are many things that we won't be able to do," He Tao said while looking worried.

"Who says you have no governor? All of you can use both of the governors now. A clone isn't an outsider in disguise. He won't be exposing anything, so why can't you use him?" Lin Huang asked like it was a no-brainer.

Deputy Governor He Tao looked at Lin Huang with his eyes wide open. He had no idea what to say at the moment. "We can do that?!"

"Other government residences can't have two governors even if they wanted to. It's a steal." Lin Huang raised his brow again. "Alright. Since it's been solved, we should head back to the inn now."

Lin Huang turned and left after patting He Tao's shoulder. The rest of the Heaven Alliance followed him while wearing smiles.

The puzzled He Tao and the two governors who were staring at each other were the only ones left.

Report chapter

Lin Huang really had no idea what to do about Governor Tu Ming.

The phenomenon cloned the entire person. It did not only apply to every single cell in his body, but even his soul was also duplicated entirely. There was no way to tell who was the real person and who was the clone.

However, the phenomenon was indeed something that did not require solving.

Lin Huang did not follow up on Governor Tu Ming since then. He only heard the news coming from the sect and that the two governors had left Enlightenment City together from Tang Ning.

The city regained its peace a few days after the strange phenomenon.

Tan Lang and the rest would still come back once every few days for supplies as well as to distribute the rewards.

Tang Ning would consolidate the news regarding the phenomenon from various places. The frequency of the phenomenon was getting higher and higher. Although it did not cause any severe trouble at the moment, everyone knew that the peace was just temporary.

Li Jia released his bugs to every city to monitor them. With his monitoring, Lin Huang stayed indoors even more now.

Shen Tao was the only one was bored. He was currently on the brink of elevating to imperial-level. The reason he had yet to elevate was that he had yet to find a suitable imperial-level monster.

One would have to kill an imperial-level monster to obtain the Life Base of its Life Palace in order to elevate from immortal-level to imperial-level. If one were to treat a Life Palace as a building, the Life Base would be the blueprint. One would only be able to construct a building with a blueprint. Obtaining a monster's Life Base was to form the foundation of Life Palace.

The reason why Shen Tao entered the Fallen God Land was to find a suitable imperial-level monster. However, he had not seen any imperial-level monster ever since he entered the foggy area. After killing ascendance-level monsters with Tan Lang for a while, the slaughter was almost one-sided which did little to help his cultivation. Hence, he decided to stay in the city.

However, he was getting bored these days.

He looked for Li Jia for battle practice, but the latter rejected him with the excuse of being busy.

He even lowered his pride to ask Lin Huang to allow him to practice his sword skills with his summoning beast. However, Lin Huang rejected him, saying he did not want his summoning beast to be killed by Shen Tao.

In reality, Lin Huang's Lancelot and the sword servants under him were suitable to practice sword skills with Shen Tao. If it Lancelot elevated to pseudo-mythical-level while fighting Shen Tao, it was uncertain who would be killed.

Lin Huang did not want to expose his abilities, so he rejected Shen Tao directly.

For the past few peaceful days in the city, Lin Huang maintained his usual lifestyle whereby he proceeded to cultivate the simulation of local methods. He stayed in ever since Li Jia got his bugs to monitor the situation. The Twisted Fate Scripture had broken through rotation No. 4 within a few days and entered rotation No. 5.

He would need 16 million mastery levels to get to rotation No. 6 of the Twisted Fate Scripture. Although it was quite impossible to break through in such a short period of time, Lin Huang insisted on doing the simulation in his room every day.

Meanwhile, Bloody was monitoring the entire world. Lin Huang would know what happened in the world each day even before Tang Ning did.

In the morning, Bloody interrupted Lin Huang out of nowhere as he was cultivating after breakfast as usual.

"Something's happened!"

"What's that?" Lin Huang knew Bloody would not interrupt his cultivation if it was something minor.

Bloody projected the images captured by a couple of Leech Pods right away.

In the images, gigantic gullies appeared in the ground out of nowhere. The gullies were deep and endless, but the Leech Pods detected many monsters crawling up from the walls of the crevasses continuously. There were countless monsters. There were so many of them that it was horrifying.

This was happening in more than one location. Bloody had already projected eight locations.

"Are those monster hordes?!" Lin Huang frowned a little. Although he foresaw that the world would end sooner or later, he thought it was unreal when the problem surfaced.

"There are eight of these at the moment, but I speculate that there'll be even more later on." Bloody's tone sounded negative.

"These gullies… Why do they look a little like the Abyss Brink?" Lin Huang realized all of a sudden after taking a closer look at the eight images.

"You noticed it too. Indeed, those are the eight main branches of the Abyss Brink, but they're much smaller," Bloody spoke while projecting another image.

It was shot from an aerial view far from the ground. He could see the eight gigantic intersecting gullies on the ground. There were like the frame of an umbrella.

"How are the abilities of those monsters that are crawling out of the abyss?" Lin Huang could not sense the monsters' abilities through the images, so he could only ask Bloody.

"I've only seen holy fire-levels at the moment. There isn't even one immortal-level monster." Bloody added as soon as it was done speaking, "But I'm suspecting this is just the first wave of the monster horde. There might be immortal-level monsters and even imperial-level monsters after this."

"I'm sure that the other government residences will hear about this since it's such a huge commotion. Let's see what they're going to do and we'll plan later on." Lin Huang frowned.

He did not think much about it before this since this world might be built by a bunch of survivors from the ancient times. However, now it seemed like it was not as simple as he thought.

The eight gigantic gullies that were similar to the Abyss Brink made him realize that this world might not be as straightforward as he believed.

Tang Ning returned from the government residence in the afternoon.

As expected, he brought back the news about the monster hordes.

The government residence asked the Heaven Alliance for help, hoping that they could fight the monster horde together. Apart from that, they expressed that they were willing to pay the price of an equivalent value.

Tang Ning sent the message to Tan Lang and the rest who were hunting out there.

They rushed back before the sky turned dark and had a meeting with the two deputy governors and the bunch from the Heaven Alliance at the government residence.

The people from the government residence explained the situation, which was similar to what Bloody had observed.

The Heaven Alliance members noticed that something was off as they studied the eight intersecting gullies.

After some discussions, the people from the Heaven Alliance returned to the inn while Tan Lang gathered them around.

"What do you guys think the eight gullies look like?" Tan Lang glanced at everyone.

"What else do they look like? They're the eight main branches of the Abyss Brink." Shen Tao was the first to speak while the rest nodded in agreement.

"Now, I'm suspecting whether this world's made of ancient survivors." Li Jia's suspicion was aligned with what everyone was thinking about.

"I think the Union Government should know something about it, but they won't release the news easily now," Lin Huang voiced his speculation.

"Why don't we capture some of the people from the Union Government and interrogate them?" Shen Tao grinned.

"Are you trying to create trouble?" Tan Lang stared at Shen Tao.

"There are 200 of them from the Union Government coming in this time. The ordinary members shouldn't know that much about it. If you want, you should capture those EA.2 members." Lin Huang looked at Shen Tao while grinning.

Shen Tao looked troubled when he heard what Lin Huang said.

The Union Government's intelligence agency Agency EA had sent three EA.2 members into the Fallen God Land this time. Each of their abilities was on par with the Heaven Alliance's Tan Lang or Dynasty's Seventh Prince. Shen Tao would definitely be defeated if they were to fight one-on-one.

Because of the three of them, even Dynasty's Seventh Prince would have to make way if he bumped into the Union Government's team.

"The Union Government would have to collaborate with the others to survive the crisis this time. They'll share the news sooner or later," Lin Huang continued, "I think our priority now is to handle the monster horde with the government residence and reap all of the benefits that we can!"

Chapter 868: Our Sect Isn't To Be Underestimated

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Meanwhile at the Luotian Sect Hall, Sect Leader Duan Mu Rui sat on the main seat uneasily. There were 24 human immortals sitting in both rows next to him, all of them exuding a majestically powerful aura.

The bunch of human immortals was discussing how should they handle the arrested Dynasty members. As Sect Leader, Duan Mu Riu had been listening quietly. He sat with his back straight, not daring to interrupt from the beginning until the end.

Although he was the Luotian Sect Leader, among the 24 people who were present, his grandmaster ranked the last in seniority. Most of them were even great-grandmasters.

As the people were in the zone of discussion, a messenger burst into the hall all of a sudden.

"Sect Leader, all patriarchs… There's an emergency coming from the city!"

"We'll talk about it when the meeting is over!" Duan Mu Rui frowned and waved him away.

"Wait." The old, white-bearded Taoist devotee sitting on Duan Mu Rui's left lifted his head to look at the messenger and turned to Duan Mu Rui. "Sect Leader, let him speak since it's an emergency. We won't have any results for our discussion anytime soon anyway."

"You're right, Patriarch." Duan Mu Rui nodded immediately.

The white-bearded Taoist devotee holding a horsetail whisk was the most senior among the patriarchs. He was the old Sect Leader who had decided to seal the door tens of thousands year ago. Including the time he sealed himself, he was close to 13,000 years old.

Duan Mu Rui knew that the old Taoist devotee had no right to bypass him to command the messenger just like that. Instead, he was showing his respect to Duan Mu Rui as the Sect Leader.

"What's the emergency? Please, speak."

"A piece of news has come from the government residence. Gigantic gullies have appeared in several locations early in the morning. They've found eight gullies so far which have spread across the entire continent." The messenger disciple provided a summary of the news. "Also, there's a massive amount of demons crawling out of the gullies. Looking at the current situation, they're all mortal transformation-level demons."

The entire hall fell into dead silence as soon as the messenger reported that.

Besides Duan Mu Rui, even all of the patriarchs, including the old, white-bearded Taoist devotee were stunned.

"Have you confirmed the authenticity of the news?" The old Taoist devotee was the first to snap out of his shock and asked immediately while frowning.

"I've confirmed it. More than one government residence has found out about this. Moreover, the Wuchen Sect, the Xiaoyao Sect, and the other sects heard about this before we did. There are rumors saying that they're opening their doors," said the messenger respectfully.

The hall fell into a dead stillness once again.

The old Taoist devotee could no longer consider Duan Mu Rui's position and he said to the messenger directly, "Contact the government residence now. We want to know more about it."

The messenger stepped forward immediately and contacted the government residence after bringing out a communication crystal stone.

After talking to the government residence, the people from the Luotian Sect looked horrified. The old, white-bearded Taoist devotee looked at Duan Mu Rui after asking the messenger to leave. He seemed to be hesitating if he should ask him to leave too.

Noticing his great-grandmaster's hesitation, Duan Mu Rui stood up on his own and said with cupped hands, "I'll make a move."

"No need. Stay. You need to know about this sooner or later," sighed the white-bearded old Taoist devotee softly and he signaled Duan Mu Rui to stay in the end.

"It must be those outsiders who brought this disaster upon us!" A middle-aged bearded Taoist priest was the first to speak, unable to hold it back any longer. "If not for them, the thunder wouldn't have appeared! We should ask them to leave!"

It was clear that the Luotian Sect found out that organizations such as Dynasty had come from outside.

"Indeed, it's the outsiders who have brought this, but why are you complaining now?" The fat Taoist priest sitting next to him said while shaking his head, "Even if we were to ask them to leave now, would the phenomenon disappear and the disaster be averted?"

"Now that the disaster's here, it's unwise to declare war with the outsiders. I think it'll be better for us to fight this with them." An old Taoist devotee with white hair disagreed too. "There are quite a number of them, after all. There are over 5,000 people while most of them are complete ascendance-levels and some of them even have an ability on par with human immortals."

"These people are greedy! They dared to fight our sect for resources." The bearded Taoist devotee was resolute in his objection. "Aren't we afraid that they'll stab us in the back if we were to collaborate with them?!"

"I've got the same concern too." The silver-haired old Taoist devotee sitting on Duan Mu Rui's right could not help but speak up while frowning. He had his silver hair knotted in a bun with a black hairpin.

"These outsiders come to our world for resources. Looking at their behavior, they don't seem to be treating us as their human partners but merely survivors of ancient times. To them, our time has long ended, so our dying would be something acceptable to them. Even if we come to an agreement, as soon as the disaster comes at full force, they can exit our world anytime they want and let us die."

"No matter what, I don't trust those outsiders." The silver-haired old Taoist devotee smacked the ground with the walking stick in his hand.

"Junior Brother, I understand your concern," addressed the old, white-bearded Taoist devotee with the horsetail whisk finally while stroking his beard. "But there are dozens of different organizations coming from outside. We shouldn't generalize them. Also, about the trust issue, there's a way to solve it."

All of them had their eyes on the white-bearded old Taoist devotee when he spoke sagely.

"All they want are resources, so that's what we'll give them then," said the old Taoist devotee while smiling lightly as he stroked his beard. "We'll give them as much as the effort they put in."

"We actually don't need mutual trust. All we need is an employment relationship. I believe these people will definitely accept being employed. After all, they're here for the resources."

"I think Junior Uncle's idea's great." The white-haired old Taoist devotee nodded to show agreement. "An employment is more stable than an alliance. Moreover, we're the employer who holds the power."

"This seems to be the only workable solution at the moment." The fat Taoist priest nodded lightly.

"I think we can discuss this employment with the other sects and share the resources for the employment. If we share resources, each sect will only have to contribute a small part of it," added the white-bearded old Taoist devotee.

The few of them who disagreed became silent.

"Since there are no better suggestions, let's vote now." The white-bearded old Taoist devotee glanced at everyone. "Those who agree with the employment, please raise your hand."

Including Duan Mu Rui, among 25 of them, only six of them did not raise their hands.

"19 to 6. The voting results are very clear," announced the old Taoist devotee while smiling, "So, it's set!"

"Senior Brother!" However, the old silver-haired man sitting across him spoke again, "Since you said that, should we release the people from Dynasty, return the resources to them and get them to fight for us?"

"Of course not." The old man stood up with a smile. "Since they're prisoners, they'll get a different treatment naturally."

"Give them a slave imprint and train them to be our battle slaves! Show the outsiders that our sect isn't to be underestimated!"

Chapter 869: The Sects Resurfaced

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Monster hordes broke out the night the gullies were formed.

From the images Bloody projected, Lin Huang saw the bone-chilling number of mortal transformation-level monsters crawling out of the abyss.

They were like countless ants gushing out of the core of the entire continent, spreading towards all directions. Everywhere they passed turned into barren land.

Over 200 towns were destroyed in one night while seven cities were besieged by the monster horde.

The situation was still alright in the cities due to the city walls and formations to protect the cities since the monsters were blocked outside the cities.

However, almost all of the towns turned into ruins. Apart from the ascendance-level powerhouses who managed to run in time when they realized how bad the situation, the rest became monster food.

Looking at the scenes, Lin Huang could not help but recall the world outside of the ruins. Perhaps this would happen when monster horde broke out of the Abyss Brink a few years later.

The next morning, Tang Ning spread the news of monster horde breaking out in all the locations not long after he arrived at the government residence.

Lin Huang knew about it last night and he could not sleep because of that.

However, Tang Ning brought another piece of news. The sects had a mass-resurface and over 80 of them founded an alliance organization: the Sect Alliance.

All of the outsiders knew that war was at their doorstep upon hearing that news.

Apart from Tang Ning, everyone from the Heaven Alliance gathered in the inn.

"We've no idea what this alliance organization, the Sect Alliance, thinks about us." Tan Lang was a little concerned.

"Judging by Dynasty and those underground organizations' doings, I'm afraid that we outsiders can't win the trust of these local sects." Li Jia shook his head while looking bitter. He was not optimistic about this. "Even if they know we come from different organizations, they wouldn't change their perception about us. After all, we come from the same world as those underground organizations. It's a little difficult for them to work with us."

"It's fine if we don't work together. We can continue to hunt for monsters for resources as long as they don't chase us away." Shen Tao was unwilling to let go of the monster crystal cores that could replenish his Life Power rapidly.

"Tang Ning wasn't chased out of the government residence this morning. That shows that the probability of us getting chased out of this world is rather low." Lin Huang was rather clear about this. "The monster horde has broken out, so I suppose the sects won't want to waste their efforts on us."

"If I were in the high management of a sect, I'd definitely be keen to use the outsiders to fight the monster horde. After all, most of the 5,000 people who came in are on par with complete ascendance-levels while some of them even are on par with human immortal-level powerhouses. Such a force will be great to share the burden of the monster horde," Lin Huang voiced his thoughts. "There should be wise men in the sects. I think it's quite possible that they would want to work with us. I'm just not sure what kind of collaboration method will they implement eventually."

Tang Ning came back from the government residence when it was close to noon.

They knew the Sect Alliance must have decided to collaborate looking at the excitement written all over his face.

Tang Ning only spoke with a wide grin after gathering all the people from the Heaven Alliance.

"The Sect Alliance has come up with a decision. They want to work with us in the form of employment. The 83 sects have founded a Glory Treasury together. I heard there are treasures from mortal transformation-level to celestial immortal-level in there.

"We outsiders will help them hunt monsters and we'll get Glory Points. Later on, we can use the points to redeem treasure.

"Also, there'll be a Glory Ranking. A one-star Glory will receive a 10% discount on redeemable treasures, 20% for a two-star Glory, 30% for a three-star Glory… 50% for five-star Glory while the highest will be 70% for a seven-star Glory."

Tang Ning excitedly explained the conditions roughly and projected the rules of the hunting points that he had retrieved from the government residence.

'Glory Ranking

'One-star Glory: 100 Glory Points

'Two-star Glory: 1,000 Glory Points

'Three-star Glory: 10,000 Glory Points

'Four-star Glory: 100,000 Glory Points

'Five-star Glory: One million Glory Points

'Six-star Glory: Ten million Glory Points

'Seven-star Glory: 100 million Glory Points'

'Redeemable points for treasures of each rank (excluding Glory Ranking discount)

'Points to redeem mortal transformation-level treasure: 1 – 100 points

'Points to redeem ascendance-level treasure: 10 – 1,000 points

'Points to redeem human immortal-level treasure: 1,000 – 100,000 points

'Points to redeem earth immortal-level treasure: 100,000 – 10 million points

'Remarks: Some unique items might exceed the points system'

'Respective Glory Points for each beginner-stage, intermediate-stage, and advanced-stage mortal transformation-level demon carcass: 1 point, 2 points, 4 points

'Respective Glory Points for each beginner-stage, intermediate-stage, and advanced-stage mortal transformation-level demon internal elixir: 2 points, 4 points, 8 points

'Respective Glory Points for each beginner-stage, intermediate-stage, advanced-stage, and peak-stage (including complete-stage) ascendance-level demon carcass: 10 points, 20 points, 40 points, 80 points

'Respective Glory Points for each beginner-stage, intermediate-stage, advanced-stage and peak-stage (including complete-stage) ascendance-level demon internal elixir: 20 points, 40 points, 80 points, 160 points

'Respective Glory Points for each beginner-stage, intermediate-stage, advanced-stage, peak-stage and complete-stage human immortal-level demon carcass: 1,000 points, 2,000 points, 4,000 points, 8,000 points, 16,000 points

'Respective Glory Points for each beginner-stage, intermediate-stage, advanced-stage, peak-stage and complete-stage human immortal-level demon internal elixir: 2,000 points, 4,000 points, 8,000 points, 16,000 points, 32,000 points

'Respective Glory Points for each beginner-stage, intermediate-stage, advanced-stage, peak-stage and complete-stage earth immortal-level demon carcass: 100,000 points, 200,000 points, 400,000 points, 800,000 points, 1.6 million points

'Respective Glory Points for each beginner-stage, intermediate-stage, advanced-stage, peak-stage and complete-stage earth immortal-level demon internal elixir: 200,000 points, 400,000 points, 800,000 points, 1.6 million points, 3.2 million points'

"Did they set the redeemable points all the way to 1,000 points for one monster carcass when it comes to human immortal-levels on purpose to encourage us to hunt more imperial-level monsters?" Shen Tao shook his head while querying with a smirk. "Earth immortal-levels too. The points skyrocket to 100,000 points each. It's too bad that the equivalent of an Earth immortal is a Virtual God. We'll have to see if we manage to do that by then."

"The redeemable points for monster carcasses and crystals cores are just a false hike. Didn't you see that the points for the treasures increase as well?" Li Jia who was standing aside noticed. "It's a steal if we redeem low-level treasures, but redeeming same-level treasures would still be a high price."

"In order to obtain more discounts, we'll still have to kill more monsters while redeeming monster carcasses and crystal cores to level up in the Glory Ranking. I wonder who came up with this. It's pretty brilliant." Lin Huang could not help but compliment after taking a careful look at the rules.

"If we don't kill any imperial-level (human immortal-level) monsters, we'll need to kill at least 600 immortal-level rank-9 (peak-stage ascendance-level) monsters to get to four-star Glory. It's quite difficult. To get to five-star Glory, we'll need to kill 1,000 monsters even if the monsters are on imperial-level black gold-rank (beginner-stage human immortal-level).

"Judging from that, most people will be stuck on three-star Glory for quite some time and they can only elevate to four-star Glory at the most. To the Sect Alliance, they might not really be at a loss if they were to sell the items at a discount of 30% or 40%. What a thorough calculation in these set of rules!" Lin Huang did some calculation and found out that it was a little difficult for him to elevate to five-star Glory, let alone the others.

"40% is actually not bad. That's better than not collaborating and buying the items from other stores at full price," Tan Lang pointed out. He calculated secretly after hearing Lin Huang's observation and realized that it was indeed difficult to elevate to five-star Glory.

"Indeed. No matter what, we've come to an agreement now," Lin Huang acknowledged. In reality, this was what everyone wanted. Even without working together, the people from the Heaven Alliance hoped they could stay in this world to hunt for monster crystal cores (internal elixirs). However, they were more motivated since there was this set of rules.

"Chief, now that monster horde has broken out and there are so many monsters, we'd have a higher efficiency if we hunt on our own than in a group. I think we should do this separately," Shen Tao suggested all of a sudden, seeming very enthusiastic.

"Then, we'll hunt separately then since there are only holy fire-level monsters in this wave. We still have a rapid replenishment of Life Power with the crystal cores, so the risk's low." Tan Lang glanced at them and agreed with Shen Tao's suggestion knowing that was what everyone wanted.

Lin Huang was secretly elated. Hunting alone would mean that he could use all of the techniques that he did not want them to know about.

Chapter 870: The Hunt Begins

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The monster horde broke out in the central area. Enlightenment City which was at the border of the northwestern area only had a small monster horde at the moment.

As soon as the order to hunt individually came from Tan Lang, the ten Heaven Alliance members departed in the afternoon.

Lin Huang summoned Bing Wang and headed straight to the gully of the abyss. All of the monsters they encountered along the way froze into ice sculptures that seemed alive.

It was the same even when they encountered triple mutated immortal-level rank-9 monsters. With Bing Wang who had the ancient Frost Flame Ape's bloodline, they could not escape their fate of turning into ice sculptures no matter how powerful they were.

Lin Huang put all of the ice sculptures away in his storage rings along the way. Fortunately, he had gotten many storage rings from the rewards earlier. Otherwise, he might not have enough space in his Emperor's Heart Ring.

In reality, these holy fire-level monster carcasses and crystal cores were worthless to him. Although the monsters had low combat strength, the crystal cores in the bodies might be useful for his Monster Cards' skills. Moreover, as long as there were many carcasses, he would be able to redeem a lot of Glory Points. Hence, he decided to collect the monster carcasses in the end since he had enough space. It would be dumb not to do so.

After over an hour collecting monster carcasses while sitting on Bing Wang's shoulder, Lin Huang finally saw the true form of the gully.

There were massive numbers of mortal transformation-level (holy fire-level) monsters gushing out of the gully. It looked like a burst pipe from which water was rushing out of it.

"Go!" As soon as Lin Huang ordered him, Bing Wang dashed into the crowd of monsters without hesitation.

Everywhere he stepped would turn into white frost. With him as the center point, everything around him would start to freeze.

Besides the monsters that were diving at him, the grass, flowers, and even the soil on the ground froze into ice that was harder than metal.

In a few breaths, Bing Wang passed through the monsters and arrived at the edge of the gully.

"Let's go down!" Lin Huang issued a new order without thinking much.

Bing Wang hopped into the gully and tore towards the bottom of the abyss.

Lin Huang looked at the walls around along the way. There were mortal transformation-level monsters everywhere like the walls were full of crawling ants.

The gully was immensely deep. Even with Bing Wang's speed, they only arrived at the bottom half an hour later.

After they arrived at the bottom, Lin Huang summoned Bai, Lancelot, Thunder, and Kylie.

The reason he summoned them was that they were just like Bing Wang who had a compelling group of killing techniques.

Naturally, Charcoal and Bloody Robe had similar techniques too, but one of them used Dragon Flame while another used lava. They would destroy the monster carcasses. Lin Huang decided to not summon them after giving it some thought.

Tyrant, Malachian Fiend, and the Herculean King were like tanks in the battlefield which made them suitable for group kills under usual circumstances. Lin Huang figured they might just crush the monster carcasses entirely, so he did not summon them. Holy fire-level monsters were rather weak after all.

Hunting was the second priority for summoning Kylie whereby the main objective was to help collect monster carcasses.

Her Nephilic Judge army had tremendous speed. Also, she could put away the piles of monster carcasses in her mini world.

Naturally, Kylie was unsatisfied with her assigned responsibility. She only agreed to do it when Lin Huang promised to put aside a tenth of the monster carcasses for her Nephilic Judge army as food.

The hunting was almost a bloodbath.

Bai turned Vampire Particles into bloody threads which penetrated the holy fire-level monsters' hearts and brains easily. Monster carcasses were strewn all over the place with no wounds on them wherever the threads passed by.

Lancelot summoned the Sword Dominator, the Luminescent Angelwing, the Frigid Swordswoman, and a few sword servants who were experts in group battles while he killed rapidly with his Sword Manipulation all the way.

Little black swords were flying in the air and pierced through the monsters' bodies one after another quickly.

Thunder's attack was the most straightforward. It summoned thunderclouds directly as it flapped its wings and aimed for the ground. All of the monsters that were struck by the bolts of lightning fell onto the ground.

To prevent it from destroying the monster carcasses, Lin Huang especially reminded it to maintain the intensity of the lightning bolts so that it was enough to kill immortal-level rank-2 or rank-3 monsters.

As usual, everywhere Bing Wang went turned into a land of snow while all of the monsters froze into ice sculptures.

Kylie did not fight at all. Instead, she summoned her Nephilic Judge army to move all of the monster carcasses into her mini world. Meanwhile, she was standing on Bing Wang's shoulder watching the fight just like Lin Huang was.

Lin Huang's four summoning beasts fought all the way slowly towards the center of the gully.

When it was almost night time, Lin Huang and his bunch of summoning beasts had traveled almost 150 kilometers deep into the gully. Bloody roughly calculated the number of monsters killed. There were at least 800,000 monsters.

"The speed of accumulating points is so much faster than I imagined. It seems like going down the bottom of the gully was a wise move." Lin Huang had excitement written all over his face. He would achieve at least millions of Glory Points with those 800,000 holy fire-level monsters. It would mean that he had elevated to five-star Glory in merely one afternoon.

"I'm already eligible to enjoy 50% off the treasures. Judging from the speed of accumulating points, I guess I'll elevate to seven-star Glory in a few days. I'll be enjoying a 70% discount by then which countless people will envy."

As a matter of fact, Lin Huang's body was a great advantage in such a situation.

The Divine Fire in his body continuously provided Life Power to his Monster Cards, allowing Bai and the rest to unleash all the skills that they possessed as they wished. That was how they managed to achieve such a high killing rate.

Without the Divine Fire providing Life Power, Bai and the rest would not be able to withstand such speed of killing for even half an hour. As soon as half an hour passed, their Life Power would be drained. They would not even be able to run by then and would drown in the endless amount of monsters.

Even the human immortals from the sects dared not come to the bottom of the gully of the abyss following the breakout of monster horde this time. Lin Huang was the only one who had the guts to do this due to his abundant Life Power.

However, although they had endless Life Power, Bai and the rest had limited strength.

The hunt went on until past eleven at night where their strength began to drop while their hunting rate was decreasing.

"Alright, that's all for today." Lin Huang finally stopped the hunt upon noticing that.

After recalling Bai and the rest, Lin Huang summoned Bloody Robe to make a cave in the wall using lava to be his temporary shed. After entering the cave, Lin Huang got him to seal the cave entrance with the cooled down lava to prevent monsters from coming in at night.

As soon as a human elevated to transcendent-level, he would have a strong adaptative ability. Without oxygen, a holy fire-level human could live for two to three days. Meanwhile, an immortal-level powerhouse could live ten days to half a month without oxygen.

Moreover, Lin Huang would only need a night's rest in such an enclosed environment.

He brought his tent out in the cave. After setting it up, he got Bloody Robe to guard outside while he went into the tent.

Due to his excitement, Lin Huang chatted with Bloody until past 1 a.m. before he fell asleep.

Bloody did not tell him about the progress of Tan Lang and the rest before he fell asleep. For the entire afternoon, they had killed almost zero monsters because Lin Huang had wiped their prey out.

Chapter 871: A Great Place to Obtain Points

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Huang felt refreshed when he woke up early the next morning.

After washing up and having some snacks that he had prepared beforehand for breakfast, he put away the tent and broke out of the cave.

Countless monsters surrounded his field of vision as soon as he exited the cave.

They were scurrying towards all directions at the bottom and crawling upwards on the walls continuously. They were like an army of ants migrating on a large scale.

Soon, many monsters noticed Lin Huang's presence and jumped to attack him.

Observing that, Lin Huang summoned Bai, Lancelot, Thunder, Bing Wang, and Kylie immediately.

As soon as Bai was summoned, he attacked at lightning speed the moment he saw the monsters targeting Lin Huang.

He turned his Vampire Particles into a couple of sharp blades. A few monsters were killed directly as he attacked in a flash. There was not even a drop of blood as the monsters were slashed in half. The carcasses dropped onto the ground.

Meanwhile, Lancelot, Thunder and Bing Wang landed on the ground one after another and began a new round of killing as they looked around.

Bai then joined the killing spree instantly.

The four monsters that were experts in killing as a group entered the herd of lambs like tigers. Eventually, the mortal transformation-level monsters were killed one by one.

As the monsters were killed, Kylie summoned her Nephilic Judge army to begin collecting their carcasses.

Lin Huang turned to look at the monsters that had been initially behind him while looking a little puzzled. Those monsters that had passed him and his summoning beasts by did not turn back to attack. Instead, they were running in all directions. Those monsters that were crawling on the walls also did not jump down to attack him or his summoning beasts. They continued crawling upwards as if nothing else mattered to them.

"These monsters are behaving rather oddly," Lin Huang said softly with a frown. "If this is a normal monster horde, no matter where I am, they would treat me as their target as long as they can see or sense me. They would want to kill me no matter what, but those monsters that passed us ignored me completely. They didn't turn back to attack. Instead, they proceeded with their journey. The only exception were those that saw me right before they attacked me."

"There are two possibilities." Bloody attended to Lin Huang's confusion. "The first possibility would be that they're moving or they're escaping. Hence, they don't have the time to care about you. Some of them attacked you not because you're human, but simply because you're blocking their way.

"The second possibility would be that they've received a powerful order. Compared to the order, you're nothing, so they decided to ignore you and follow the order."

"This isn't something bad. At least, it means that we can go forward without having to kill all of the monsters along the way," Bloody added.

"Do you mean minimizing the hunting zone and speeding up?" Lin Huang raised his brow when he heard what Bloody said. "If that's the case, wouldn't Tan Lang and the rest have more pressure on them?"

"They don't even have any monsters to kill at the moment." Feeling helpless, Bloody told Lin Huang about Tan Lang and the rest who had nothing to do since yesterday afternoon until the night due to him slaying all of the monsters.

"Besides Tan Lang and the rest, a couple of government residences in the northwestern area and the Luotian Sect were affected too. Because of us hogging all of the monsters, they didn't get many kills yesterday.

"Also, the Luotian Sect couldn't help but send two teams out to investigate last night. Fortunately, the monster horde went back to normal after we went to sleep last night. Their teams encountered the monster horde not long after that and they retreated.

"Li Jia sent a couple of bugs to investigate as well. Luckily, his bugs have a limited range which is less than 300 kilometers, so he didn't find anything."

"Ahh, okay, I've overlooked this." Lin Huang thought he would kill as many monsters as he could to minimize Tan Lang and the rest's burden, but he never realized that he would confuse them instead.

"Alright, we'll go as fast as we can to get to the central area of the gully and begin the hunt there. We can ease the pressure off the people outside and at the same time, we won't kill the monster horde entirely." Lin Huang came up with a new plan immediately.

"We can do that before the advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters appear," Bloody nodded. "But as soon as the monster horde levels up and the advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters come out, I'm afraid it's a little difficult for us to survive in the center of the gully with our abilities. We can only guard one of the gullies."

"Sure, let's do that then." Lin Huang understood what Bloody meant.

As soon as the monster horde leveled up, the advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters would have the equivalent combat strength of immortal-level rank-6 to rank-9 monsters. Such monsters would be difficult for Bing Wang and the rest to kill in one hit if their defense was slightly more powerful. Some triple mutated immortal-level rank-9 monsters even had the ability to fight Bing Wang and the rest. As soon as they were attacked by one of those monsters, it would be hard for them to come out of the monster horde. By then, the risk of losing their lives there would be high.

After giving Bai and the rest a new order, Lin Huang and his army began to speed up towards the central zone of the gully.

The closer it was to the central zone, the lower the terrain was and more spacious too. It was like a narrow, fan-shaped slope.

The closer Lin Huang was into the center of the gully, he realized there were more and more monsters ahead of them.

Bai and the rest fought together like arrows continuously shooting into the sea of monsters that were in front of them. They ignored the monsters that were surrounding them left and right.

The monsters that passed them did not turn around to attack. Instead, they were whizzing towards the northwestern direction.

After changing the hunting plan, Lin Huang and his army sped up so much more that they could travel up to 1,000 kilometers per hour.

When the sky was turning dark, Lin Huang finally saw the central zone which was the end of the intersection of the gully.

It was a gigantic sunken pit that looked like a huge crater. There was a huge hole in the middle of the crater.

To Lin Huang, the eight gigantic gullies looked like eight slender legs that expanded from a humongous spider while the sunken hole was the spider's heart.

Lin Huang got Bai and the others to go into the bowl-shaped crater to kill the monsters while he stood by the edge and peered down. It was pitch black. Apart from the various monsters that were crawling up tens of meters around the edge, he could not see anything else down there.

"This must be the center of the abyss…" Lin Huang used his Divine Telekinesis curiously but he sensed nothing. It was like his Divine Telekinesis had entered a land of nothingness.

"Bloody, release a few Leech Pods down there and see," Lin Huang said to Bloody since his effort was to no avail.

Bloody released a few Leech Pods immediately. The pods were going towards the center abyss slowly.

However, Bloody shook its head after a short while. "The communication was cut off. I'm not sure if someone shot them or if the Leech Pods floated somewhere else."

Lin Huang gazed at the center of the abyss for a while and eventually shook his head. He gave up on the thought to jump into it to discover for himself.

He turned to look at the countless monsters within the hundreds of kilometers radius in the gigantic crater. Lin Huang was elated all of a sudden. "This is a great place to reap Glory Points!"

Chapter 872: The Sixth Day

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Time passed by. It was the fifth day since the monster horde broke out.

Throughout the past five days, the combat strength of the monsters that had been gushing out of the abyss was increasing day by day.

It was just monsters on the beginner-stage mortal transformation-level on the first day, but there were intermediate-stage mortal transformation-level monsters beginning to appear on the second day. On the fifth day, there were already intermediate-stage ascendance-level monsters appearing, which combat strength was equivalent to immortal-level rank-4 to rank-6 monsters.

To Tan Lang and the rest, the pressure increased day after day.

On the fifth day since the monster horde broke out, most of the Heaven Alliance members could no longer take the pressure and had to retreat back to Enlightenment City.

Even Tan Lang returned to Enlightenment City when the city door closed on the fifth night.

As soon as he returned to the inn, Tan Lang gathered the people from the Heaven Alliance. He glanced through everyone, all members were there while Lin Huang was the only one missing.

"Didn't Lin Xie come back?" Tan Lang asked while frowning a little.

Chan Dou had assigned Tan Lang a mission which was to take care of Lin Xie's safety. He was a little worried when he noticed Lin Xie's absence.

"He didn't. We haven't been able to contact him via the communication ring." Shen Tao shook his head. He had tried contacting Lin Huang a couple of times yesterday, but his attempt was futile.

They could not use the communication system in their Emperor's Heart Ring there, but it worked for the local communication ring. The function was nothing less than the Emperor's Heart Ring. For convenience, all of them had one of their own.

However, since Lin Huang had been in the gully for the past few days, the communication ring could not receive any reception outside of the abyss.

"He didn't reply the messages?" Tan Lang asked again.

"No. I've sent a few messages to him, asking him to contact me as soon as he sees my messages, but he didn't reply since yesterday. I'm guessing that he's somewhere that has no reception."

Tan Lang said nothing and used his communication ring to call Lin Huang directly. However, the call did not connect.

Since the call was not connected the first time, he called again, but it was the same result.

"It can't connect…" Tan Lang frowned.

"It shows that he might still be alive," Tang Ning comforted, "The communication ring here is different from the Emperor's Heart Ring whereby the communication ring's reception won't be affected when the person is dead. You can still call, just that nobody will pick up."

"What if the person is dead and the communication ring is broken?" Tan Lang glared at Tang Ning. He knew not having any reception did not mean that Lin Huang was dead.

All of a sudden, Tang Ning fell silent. If Lin Huang was dead and his body was trampled by the monsters, there was a high chance that his communication ring was broken. A broken communication ring would have the same no-reception mode just like what happened when they attempted to call.

"I'm not worried about Lin Xie. Remember that he killed so many monsters on the Stairway Tree?" Shen Tao comforted Tan Lang while wearing a smile.

"There'll be advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters coming out of the abyss tomorrow. Do you think he has the ability to kill monsters that are equivalent to immortal-level rank-7 to rank-9?!" Tan Lang shook his head helplessly. "Even I would have to avoid them if I encountered monsters of such a level!"

Even though Tan Lang had an ability comparable with imperial-level crimson gold-ranks, he dared not guarantee that he could kill all of the advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters alone. The reason was that being attacked by monsters of such level would cause severe damage to him.

"Perhaps Lin Xie has a way of his own. Nobody saw exactly how he killed the monsters on the Stairway Tree earlier." In reality, Li Jia was very curious about how Lin Huang managed to obtain such a high score on the Stairway Tree.

He was a Bug Master. On a certain level, it was a branch of the Imperial Censor. He had always wanted to see Lin Huang's full blast combat strength as an Imperial Censor.

"Don't worry, Imperial Censors usually have much more survival techniques than us ordinary people do. Moreover, Lin Xie isn't a reckless person. If he knew that the situation's out of hand, he'll definitely come back." Shen Tao stepped forward and patted Tan Lang's shoulder.

Tan Lang went silent for a moment. A strange thought popped into his mind after he calmed down, and he could not help but say it out loud, "Do you guys think it's true what the Herculean King said the other day about his ability being the least powerful among all of the summoning beasts that Lin Xie has?"

Shen Tao and the rest had their eyes wide open when they heard that and they fell into a dead silence.

They knew the Herculean King since they had fought together before. The Herculean King was not only a triple mutated beast. It had an ancient beast bloodline too. His ability was much more powerful than most of them who were present. He was just a tiny bit lagging behind Shen Tao who was about to elevate to imperial-level.

Shen Tao chuckled awkwardly a while later. "Then, Lin Xie's ability's really terrifying."

Just when the people from the Heaven Alliance were discussing Lin Huang, he had just ended the massacre of the day.

On the second day that he entered the gully since the monster horde broke out, Lin Huang had been getting the kills for his Monster Cards in the central zone of the abyss.

It was like a job to him every day whereby he would hunt for 17 hours from 7 a.m. to 12 a.m. Throughout the four days, he had killed more than four million monsters in total.

Lin Huang estimated that he could obtain at least 30 million Glory Points just by selling the monster carcasses alone.

He called off the hunting when it was close to twelve midnight.

"That's all for today. Let's rest well tonight. Tomorrow will be the last day that we'll be in the abyss." After entering the cave that he had been staying in temporarily for those few days, Lin Huang recalled Bai and the rest into their card forms and summoned Bloody Robe.

Lin Huang did not sleep right away after getting Bloody Robe to seal the cave. Instead, he got Bloody to project the images taken at the bowl-shaped crater.

It was the sixth day since the monster horde had broken out after midnight. As expected, there were advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters that began crawling out of the abyss. There were countless of them.

"Looking at the progress of monsters coming out of the center abyss, there'll be peak-stage ascendance-level monsters coming out after midnight tomorrow and there'll be human immortal-level monsters the day after that, which are equivalent to imperial-level black gold-rank monsters. And there'll be imperial-level crimson gold-rank monsters coming out three days later…" Lin Huang shook his head while forcing a smile. "Can the sects of this world really handle such an impact?"

"According to my current observation, these sects are actually formidable. However, the chances of them defeating imperial-level monsters aren't high." Bloody was pessimistic about this crisis. "Even if an imperial-level monster horde were to happen in the outside world, we might need many demigods to fight together to solve the crisis. However, there's not even one demigod that's surfaced in this world until now."

"Maybe the demigods are hiding just like those sects before," Lin Huang teased. Even he did not believe what he had just said.

"We could still hunt the last day tomorrow. We must leave the abyss tomorrow at midnight," Bloody reminded Lin Huang in all seriousness while looking at him. "There'll be peak-stage ascendance-level monsters coming out the day after tomorrow which is equivalent to immortal-level rank-9. Some of them might even be just as strong as us. Furthermore, there are many more monsters than what our own numbers."

"I understand." Lin Huang shook his head, feeling helpless. "Seems like it's not possible to obtain 100 million points to achieve seven-star Glory after all."

"The Sect Alliance's point system was never made for anyone to achieve seven-star Glory or even six-star Glory. It'd be great if you achieved six-star Glory to purchase items at a 60% discount," Bloody smiled as it said, "If you really want to achieve seven-star Glory, you'd need to sell the crystal cores as well."

"It's not worth redeeming points with crystal cores here. I'll only sell them when I get out. Then, I should be able to get a better price." Lin Huang was very sure of that. Such an item that could replenish Life Power at a high speed would definitely be something that countless people would fight for out there.

Just when Lin Huang was ready to sleep after chatting with Bloody for a while, he heard a dumbfounded gasp from Bloody.

'What's wrong?" Lin Huang asked immediately.

"It's the people from the Union Government. They're trying to come down to the abyss now…"

Chapter 873: The Union Government's Unusual Behavior

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Huang thought it was a little puzzling when he saw the image that Bloody projected. 200 of them from the Union Government initiated the slaughter of the monsters along the way down to the central zone of the abyss.

"What's this? Isn't it a little too late for them to only come to the center abyss to stop the monsters now?"

"I'm afraid their objective isn't that simple." Bloody gave a completely different opinion. "They've come down on the first day the abyss was formed. They even attempted to enter the crater in the center abyss but they failed. I'm guessing they're here for the crater."

"I don't think you've told me about this before." Lin Huang raised his brow when he heard the explanation.

"You were in cultivation when they came and they only stopped by for less than half an hour. They gave up and left after trying a few times, but their attempts were to no avail. I didn't think it was something important and they didn't come back since then. That's why I didn't mention it to you," Bloody explained.

Lin Huang did not dwell on that. Instead, he asked while frowning. "They're trying to get into the crater. Is it because they knew there's something in there? But why do they choose to come today?"

"As soon midnight passes, the monsters that are crawling out of the crater will become advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters. Wouldn't the pressure be even bigger if they go in now?" Lin Huang thought it was rather hard to understand.

"If it were me, I would try every way I could possibly think of to get in if I failed on the first day, but they only started trying again today since they failed the first time. Moreover, they did this right when midnight passed. It shows that they might have possibly mastered the way or the pattern of getting into the crater.

"There's another thing that seems a little odd now that I think about it. They rushed to Weiyang City which is closest to the central zone as soon as the gully was formed. They've never left Weiyang City since then.

"Looking at their behavior, they must've known something about the crater. Even if they're not entirely sure about the situation in there, they must've confirmed there's something that they want in there. That might possibly be the ultimate objective of why they entered the ruins," Bloody voiced its speculation.

In the projected image, the battle formation made by 200 of the Union Government members was formidable. They killed almost all the monsters that they encountered along the way.

Their goal was not to kill all of their enemies but to travel as fast as they could. They managed to get to the abyss from Weiyang City which was 200 kilometers in less than ten minutes.

They jumped down without hesitation as soon as they arrived at the abyss and made their way to the bowl-shaped crater. All of the monsters they encountered along the away were killed by the compelling Union Government army. They did not even collect any monster carcasses.

Another ten minutes later, this powerful Union Government army opened a bloody path and finally arrived at the border of the crater.

A tall lady walked out of the crowd. She wore a big white coat and seemed to be the leader of the pack. She looked down the crater as she walked to the edge and turned to shout at the people behind her, "Begin the experiment now!"

Three Imperial Censors summoned twelve immortal-level rank-9 monsters while the others guarded them.

Although the twelve monsters were all on immortal-level rank-9, they were just double mutated while their abilities seemed ordinary.

Under the three Imperial Censors' command, the twelve monsters hopped into the crater together.

Nine of them were torn into pieces by the monsters that were crawling up as soon as they jumped in while another two were attacked. Nobody knew if they survived. Only one of the twelve managed to dodge the monsters' attack and disappeared into the abyss.

After waiting for two to three minutes, the three Imperial Censors looked at their pet spatial ring with their heads down.

One of the Imperial Censors lifted his head after checking it thoroughly. He said to the people helplessly while shaking his head, "All dead."

Subsequently, the second one lifted his head. "It's the same on my side. None of them survived."

The last one only spoke after the second person was done speaking, "One of mine survived. I guess the first round of experiment's complete."

"Go on with the second round of the experiment!" The leading lady nodded.

The three Imperial Censors carried out another round of summoning whereby they summoned another twelve monsters.

Just like before, they were all on immortal-level rank-9 and double mutated.

The twelve monsters jumped into the crater under the three Imperial Censors' command.

A few minutes later, an Imperial Censor nodded at the leading lady again. "I have two monsters that survived. The second experiment is complete."

"Begin with the last round of experiment!" The leading lady ordered again.

Soon, the new round of experiment was accomplished while only one of the twelve monsters that jumped down survived this time.

"Since the three rounds of experiments were successful, we can go in now." A man wearing a white robe nodded at the leading lady. His attire was out of tune with the Union Government's uniform, but nobody seemed to have an opinion on that.

As soon as he spoke, the white-robed man was the first to jump into the crater. The leading lady did not have the chance to stop him even if she wanted to.

Seeing the man disappear into the crater, the leading lady followed suit while frowning slightly. The rest of them from the Union Government then jumped in too.

Lin Huang was stunned watching the projection.

"All of them jumped?!"

"I've attached two Leech Pods on two of them," Bloody said while grinning, "For some reason, I failed to look at the images the Leech Pods sent back, but I could sense that the two Leech Pods are still around this time."

"Let's go in too." Lin Huang's interest was piqued all of a sudden. Although he had reaped a number of great rewards throughout these few days from killing monsters, he thought it was rather boring. Now that he found something interesting, he would not want to miss it naturally.

"The Union Government has formed an army of 200 who are experts in battle formation. I'm afraid it's not safe down there." Bloody was unwilling to take the risk.

It preferred to fight as long as it could master the situation. Its instinct was to avoid such an unknown area at all costs.

"No matter how powerful this battle formation from the Union Government's army is, they'll never beat your battle formation. None of them is a match for me when it comes to personal ability." Lin Huang had faith in Bloody and himself. "I think it'll be easy for us to handle the risk that they could handle."

"Moreover, judging by the Union Government's huge effort of forming such a team, the treasures in the crater must be exotic!" Lin Huang's eyes lit up as he spoke about this. "Let's follow secretly behind them."

Bloody knew that since Lin Huang had made up his mind, it was futile for it to stop him, so it did not bother wasting its effort on doing so.

The exuberant Lin Huang did what he said right away. He put the tent away immediately and got out of the wall as soon as he donned his clothes.

He then summoned Bai and the rest to kill all of the monsters along the way before arriving at the border of the crater. After recalling all of the Monster Cards apart from Bloody, Lin Huang jumped into the crater without thinking twice.

Chapter 874: The Source of the Monster Horde

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Huang looked around as he hovered in the air.

Everything that he was observing was a little different than what he had imagined before going in.

It was clear that he was not hovering underground but above an isolated space.

The sky was gray, and there was an unpleasant, pungent smell lingering in the air. The stench undoubtedly came from the few volcanoes that had smoke billowing out of them not far away.

One of the volcanoes was erupting where an insane amount of burning lava was flowing out from the crater. It drowned the burnt soil on the ground and connected with the dark-red lava river, making it even more disastrous than ever.

Although the ordinary lava could not cause any physical damage to ascendance-level monsters, the swarm of monsters decided to dodge the lava river and the erupting volcano. After all, monsters that lacked strength would not want their flesh to be burned by lava.

Lin Huang saw the Union Government members that were a distance away after taking a glance around.

They were forming a battle formation and zooming towards the direction in which the monsters were coming out. They seemed to be gunning for the source of the monster horde.

However, they appeared rather beaten although the battle formation was formed successfully.

The monsters were a little different from those on the outside. All of the monsters that sensed their existence attacked them, including those that had already passed them. They turned around to attack the people at full force.

The members were surrounded by the monster horde entirely now. Unlike before, the only threat they had faced earlier was the monsters ahead of them. Unfortunately, now monsters from all directions and even angles were attacking them.

Lin Huang only took a moment to complete his observation.

However, the monsters noticed him in the next moment. As they surged toward him, Lin Huang did not attack impulsively. He slid under a gigantic ungulate monster's abdomen, ignoring the monsters that were coming at him. Then, he crushed a Transformation Card.

In the next second, Lin Huang turned into a little black snake the size of a thumb with red patterns all over his body. He slithered below the monster's abdomen together with a tiny purple snake which was Bloody. Its body was compressed to the same size as the Eclipse Boa that Lin Huang had transformed into.

The monsters that were chasing Lin Huang realized that his aura suddenly vanished out of nowhere. They left helplessly after their failed attempts to detect them.

The two little snakes turned into red and purple ferocious gleams as they traveled among the monsters.

Many of the monsters saw them, but they did not attack. It was clear that the monsters treated Bloody and Lin Huang who had transformed themselves as one of themselves.

Lin Huang was secretly glad. The idea of using a Transformation Card came to him out of nowhere. He was taking a risk to see whether he would be attacked if he did that. He did not expect it to turn out so well. They were completely ignored even though they were traveling the opposite way.

"The people from the Union Government are going to the source of the monster horde. There might be treasures that they are after," Lin Huang said to Bloody through voice transmission, "Let's go there before they do."

Lin Huang raced against the current of the monster horde with Bloody as soon as he spoke.

They were so tiny that they were traveling among the monsters' legs, so they did not affect the flow of the horde at all.

Meanwhile, the Union Government army that was far away did not notice them at all. The duo passed them in a few seconds after their great efforts to struggle through less than ten kilometers in the monster horde.

Lin Huang and Bloody finally arrived at the source of monster horde after traveling for over an hour against the current. Lin Huang had to crush the second Transformation Card along the way to extend the duration of the transformation.

Lin Huang and Bloody were stunned when they saw what was happening at the source.

All of the monsters thronged from the gigantic crater before them.

However, there was a giant black dragon, which was thousands of meters long, perching on top of the crater. It seemed like it was in a deep sleep, but its aura was so powerful that Lin Huang and Bloody felt core-chilling fear despite being so far away.

"What a terrifying aura! That dragon must be at least a Virtual God!" Lin Huang and Bloody hid behind the other volcano and watched the dragon quietly.

"Why are both of you hiding? This Nightmare Dragon has been dead for a long time. It's just a carcass now." The stone tablet's thick voice came into Lin Huang's ears all of a sudden.

"Are you sure it's really a carcass and not just sleeping?" Lin Huang felt the compelling aura of that giant dragon. He found it hard to believe that it was already dead.

"Of course, it's a carcass! Why do you think that a True God wouldn't have noticed you when you're so close to it?" The stone tablet asked him back as if he was stupid.

"Maybe it noticed us, but couldn't be bothered to do anything because we're too weak." Although Lin Huang was in doubt, he believed the stone tablet.

"Do you still want the God Figurine?" The stone tablet did not want to argue with Lin Huang so it brought that up right away.

"Yes!" Lin Huang answered without thinking twice.

"This dragon carcass is actually a God Figurine," revealed the stone tablet, "It's just that it still has the very last remnant of will which is the reason why it isn't in the form of a God Figurine."

"Do you mean I'll have to fight this true god-level giant dragon in order to obtain the God Figurine?" Lin Huang was speechless to hear that. He did not think he could win.

"You don't fight it. You fight the gush of will that it has left," corrected the stone tablet.

"What's the difference?"

"The difference is that it's just a gush of will."

"You might as well not answer me…"

"Its gush of will extremely weak now. In fact, it's so weak that it can't drive this dragon carcass to fight. It's just using some sort of ability that the dragon carcass had when it was still alive. The ability's restricted due to the strength of the will."

Lin Huang finally understood the stone tablet after the explanation. He was finally relieved. "So, what should I do?"

"Simple. Turn back to a human, activate this gush of will, then destroy it! As soon as this last gush of will disappears, this dragon carcass will turn into a harmless God Figurine."

"Can I destroy it directly without activating it?" Lin Huang asked shamelessly. He could actually guess the answer to this question but he could not help asking anyway.

"You wish!" The stone tablet teased then explained in all seriousness, "Your will has to be tens of folds more powerful than this dragon's will when it was still alive in order to destroy its current will directly. Without activating the gush of will, it'll stay in this dragon carcass forever. It might take hundreds of thousands or even millions of years to fade away slowly on its own."

"Alright then…" Lin Huang looked helpless as he knew that was the answer he would get anyway. "So, how do I destroy it?"

"Just keep fighting it. When it's activated, it'll drain itself every minute and second. Fighting will only speed up the draining."

"So, how long does it take to destroy it completely?" Lin Huang proceeded to ask.

"From the intensity of its will that I can sense, it'll take three days at the most for it to be completely drained as long as it stays activated. If it's in battle mode, the duration will be shortened by heaps. It might not even be able to take it for a day if the fight's intense enough."

'You sound like you're making it up,' Lin Huang thought to himself secretly, but he did not seem to have any other option now.

If he did not do anything now, it would be harder for him to do it the next day when the monster horde leveled up to peak-stage ascendance-level. The chance of achieving this would be even slimmer.

After some thought to himself, Lin Huang finally made up his mind.

"Let's do it for the God Figurine!"

Chapter 875: Remnant Of The Will

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"The Nightmare Dragon's a pureblood dragonkin whereby it's a true god-level powerhouse when it becomes an adult. As opposed to many other dragons, it masters the soul-type power, especially spirit methods.

"It can traverse through dreams of different living beings as it wishes and alters reality with dreams. If they kill a person in the dream, the person will be dead in reality.

"An adult Nightmare Dragon can even materialize something in dreams into reality, including living things. Just like this world that both of you are in now, it's been reified by the remnants of this Nightmare Dragon's energy."

Lin Huang was completely shocked upon hearing the stone tablet.

"You mean these volcanoes, the lava, the monster hordes, and the entire underground space are products of this Nightmare Dragon?"

"Besides this underground space, even the entire foggy area above is too," revealed the stone tablet, stunning Lin Huang even more. "However, the things that were reified on land was interfered with by another force."

"Do you mean that even the government residences, the sects and even the people in the cities are…" Lin Huang's eyes flew wide and suddenly, he felt like his head was too small to consume all this information.

"That's right. They're all materialized by the dragon."

"So, True Gods are so powerful that they can do this?" Lin Huang inhaled sharply.

"Not all True Gods. In reality, most of the true god-level powerhouses can't do this," explained the stone tablet immediately, "Reification and traversing in dreams are the Nightmare Dragon's innate abilities. Because of these two abilities, the Nightmare Dragon's clan made it to the top of pureblood dragonkins.

"Moreover, the reification of the entire foggy area isn't entirely the work of this Nightmare Dragon. There's another true god-level monster which seems to also have a similar reification ability," the stone tablet added. "Also, these two monsters were top True Gods when they were still alive. Their will has traveled through countless eras, but they're still there, which proves that they were the best of the best when they were still alive."

"There's another will? Would it appear to help the other one?" Lin Huang questioned immediately. He did not have full confidence in handling one, and he did not think he would win if both of them were to challenge him together.

"From what I've observed, these two wills are rivals. The other gush of will should be glad to see you killing this Nightmare Dragon's will," assured the stone tablet while grinning. "Alright, let me tell you the possible battle patterns the will might carry out in detail…"

After hearing the stone tablet's detailed explanation and analysis, Lin Huang had a thorough understanding of his opponent and found out that defeating it was possible.

"No matter how powerful it used to be, it's just a remnant of a will right now. It doesn't even have complete consciousness. All that it's left with is its battle instinct. You don't have to be stressed about it. Just treat it as an ordinary opponent," reminded the stone tablet later on.

"Alright." Lin Huang nodded.

He did not remove the effect of the Transformation Card immediately. Instead, in the Eclipse Boa's form, he slithered to the Nightmare Dragon's head which was above the volcano. He only removed the effect of the card and revealed himself then.

In reality, being close to the carcass of the Nightmare Dragon was immensely uncomfortable because there was a gush of terrifying energy remnants being released from the dragon carcass at all times. The energy was on at least virtual god-level.

Although Lin Huang had the same ability as it, which was the Holy Power, due to the major difference in combat strength, he could not enter the area tens meters from the dragon carcass. He could not land on the dragon carcass either, so he hovered more than ten meters above the dragon's head.

Bloody, on the other hand, hid deep in Lin Huang's sleeve and dared not show itself. Even with the Holy Power from Lin Huang's body, it felt uncomfortable being so close to the dragon carcass.

As soon as Lin Huang unveiled his aura, the monsters around lifted their heads to examine the aura. Soon, their eyes locked onto Lin Huang who was above the dragon's head.

Many monsters roared and tried to get closer to him but they were repelled by the Dragon Power. They simply could not reach Lin Huang.

That was a technique the stone table had taught Lin Huang earlier, which was to avoid unnecessary confrontation as much as he could.

Furthermore, the stone tablet also hinted to him that getting close to the dragon carcass was the best way to activate the remnant of the will.

"Avoiding confrontation really worked!" Lin Huang trusted the stone tablet even more now looking at the crazy number of monsters roaming the crater as if they were ants on a heated pot. Still, they did not dare to get close to him.

"I wonder how long does it take to activate its will." Lin Huang looked down to study the dragon carcass beneath his feet.

Right at that moment, the dragon carcass opened its eyes slowly. It stared deadly at Lin Huang with its black, crystal-like eyes.

Lin Huang was shocked to see that. Even his heart skipped a beat. Cold sweat was dripping down his back and he dared not move now.

"Don't worry. It's just scaring you. With its weak will, making those eyes open is the best that it can do." The stone tablet's voice came instantly.

Lin Huang was stunned to hear that and calmed down upon noticing that the dragon carcass did not move a couple of seconds later.

"Scared the sh*t out of me! I thought it came back to life." Lin Huang patted his chest and released a long whoosh of air.

Realizing that staring at Lin Huang was to no avail, the remnant of the will could not help but roar, "Worthless ant, are you seeking death?!"

Naturally, that did not come from the dragon carcass, but directly from thin air. However, the remnant of the will shifted the source of voice to the dragon carcass, making it sound like the carcass was speaking.

"Is this all you have?" Lin Huang did not panic at all this time as he had seen through the little trick. "You should just destroy yourself and give me the God Figurine if this is all you've got."

"I'm going to kill you!" Another shriek came.

However, there was a commotion among the monsters all of a sudden. The countless monsters that were repelled by the Holy Power earlier began to rush towards Lin Huang in madness.

Lin Huang grinned. "This is what I've been waiting for!"

Bai, Bing Wang, Lancelot, Thunder, Charcoal, and Bloody Robe that were experts in killing groups of monsters appeared around Lin Huang in the next second.

In order to get the monsters to kill Lin Huang, the remnant of the will weakened the Holy Power on its carcass, allowing those monsters that were dying to kill Lin Huang to surge in.

However, Lin Huang seized the opportunity to summon his summoning beasts that were experienced in group kills while he landed a meter away from the dragon carcass slowly. Within that distance, the monsters could not get close to him even with the weakened Holy Power. It would be equivalent to Lin Huang entering the safe zone again.

He lifted his head to watch the one-sided massacre above excitedly. Popcorn was the only thing that was missing from his hands.

"Shameless!" The remnant of the will's voice boomed again.

"Hey, it was you who attacked me with the monsters first. What's wrong with me using my summoning beasts?" Lin Huang looked like he had done nothing wrong. "I'm an Imperial Censor, so it's my pride to use my summoning beasts to fight. Have you seen any Imperial Censor who fights with his own hands while neglecting his summoning beasts aside?"

Chapter 876: Going All Out

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The stone tablet predicted the battle pattern of the remnant of the will completely.

At the start, the stone tablet had told Lin Huang that the chances of the remnant of the will initiating a fight was slim as it would want to minimize exhausting its energy. Its likeliest attack would be to use the dragon carcass to drive the monster horde to attack him.

As expected, all it did was to hold back the dragon carcass's Holy Power to allow the monster horde to get closer to Lin Huang so that they could initiate an attack.

However, Lin Huang was smarter than it was. He entered the range of the Holy Power as well as summoning his Monster Cards to fight the monsters.

If it were not for him wanting to obtain more monster carcasses and crystal cores, in reality, Lin Huang would not bother summoning Bai and the rest. All he had to do was to hide in the coverage of the Holy Power since the monsters outside would not be able to touch him at all. He could just activate his Dark Mirror for long-distance attacking.

Meanwhile, the remnant of the will would speed up the drain on itself no matter which form of energy it was using. It was draining for it to suppress the dragon carcass's Holy Power too, but it was just a minor depletion. However, the more it suppressed the Holy Power, the more draining it would be.

The remnant of the will had no solution to Lin Huang hiding in the range of the Holy Power. Lin Huang seemed to have a rather powerful defense against the Holy Power whereby he was not affected just by staying in its coverage.

Feeling helpless, all it could do was watch at that moment. It hoped the monsters could kill Lin Huang's summoning beasts as soon as they could to weaken his ability.

However, Bai and the rest were all triple mutated. Moreover, with the effects of the Rebirth Card and the Blood Thickening Card, their ancient beast bloodlines and god's blood made them the top of the food chain among the immortal-level monsters.

The killing was one-sided when they encountered advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters.

Although there were the occasional monsters on par with an immortal-level rank-9, Lancelot, who possessed Sword Dao Territory, would annihilate them if they were not already killed by the first hit from Bai and the rest.

Now that Lancelot had elevated to pseudo-mythical-level Ruthless Sword Dominator, the radius of his territory had doubled to 18 kilometers. Anything within his territory would not be able to escape from him. He did not even need to move to kill by swinging his sword from where he was. His attack strength was just as powerful as Killer's who was also on pseudo-mythical-level. Even a triple mutated immortal-level rank-9 monster could be killed by one swing of a sword as long as the monster did not possess some unique defense ability or technique.

Seeing that the battle had turned one-sided and the massacre of the monsters went on for a few hours, the remnant of the will finally realized that such a level of the monster horde was not a threat to Lin Huang at all.

Initially, it thought that the monster horde would drain the Life Power of Lin Huang's summoning beasts even if they could not kill them. However, the Life Power in the summoning beasts maintained at their peak even a few hours after that; there was no decline in their Life Power at all. It then realized that the human standing before it was tougher than it imagined.

"I thought the remnant of a true god-level powerhouse's will would be compelling, but it seems like I've overestimated you," Lin Huang teased, "I can't believe that you need to use the dragon carcass to draw the monster horde to attack me! Didn't you inherit the Nightmare Dragon's reification ability? I'll definitely run away if you reified a human immortal-level monster horde."

"There's no need to do that. Your summoning beasts will definitely not be able to handle the next wave of monsters!" As soon as the remnant of the will's voice echoed, the monsters that crawled out of the volcano beneath the giant dragon carcass elevated to peak-stage ascendance-level. Their aura was on par with immortal-level rank-9 monsters.

Sensing Lin Huang's aura, the monsters began to join in the battle with Bai and the rest like they were rabid.

'It interfered with the release of the monsters directly as expected.' Lin Huang was not surprised by that.

The stone tablet had reminded him before that its reification ability would exhaust its energy faster and it would not stop draining. Compared to the interference of the monster release, although the exhaustion was major, the exhaustion would not proceed as reification did. However, the tablet suspected that the remnant of the will would only use such a technique once.

Now that their opponents had elevated from advanced-stage to peak-stage ascendance-level, Bai and the rest felt a hike of pressure.

It was easy for them to kill advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters that were on par with immortal-level rank-7 to rank-8s in one hit. However, now that they were fighting monsters of the same level as they were, their upper hand was taken away. It was difficult for them to kill those monsters in one blow. It now took them a few hits.

Nevertheless, it was not a dead end for Lin Huang. Bai and the rest were not his trump cards after all.

"Come out, Killer, the Evil Dominator, Kylie, Warlord, the Death Knight, the Fallen Knight, and the Dark Crescent Snakes!" Lin Huang yelled to summon the best army he had: two pseudo-mythical-level monsters, a Nephilic Judge army, a mechanical army, and two knights who had the combat strength of imperial-level crimson gold-ranks when they fought together.

Bai and the rest felt the pressure being lifted by heaps as soon as the eight monsters joined the battle.

The remnant of the will was stunned to see those monsters that had a compelling aura on par with human immortals joining the battle all of a sudden.

Soon, Killer and the rest showcased their stunning abilities.

Killer and the Evil Dominator, who had an imperial-level crimson gold-rank substitute and two imperial-level crimson gold-rank knights, were exterminating the monsters like a piece of cake as soon as they encountered all the monsters. It was almost one slash per monster for them; it was as easy as slicing vegetables.

Kylie's Nephilic Judge army fared very well as they killed hundreds of monsters at once and commenced the second round of killing right after that. The cycle never ended like they were chomping on a bunch of chives.

Warlord was amazing whereby he began the battle with his 100,000-strong mechanical army. They outnumbered the monsters that approached them. Although his mechanical army could not kill peak-stage ascendance-level monsters in one blow, no monster could withstand his high-frequency shooting. Ammunition was fired as if they were free-of-charge. If not for Lin Huang's never-ending Life Power supply, he would have gone soft within 30 seconds attacking like this, at the most… Err, I mean, his Life Power would be exhausted and he would become weak.

Moreover, the mechanical army could be recycled instantly as soon as they were destroyed. The same applied to those used ammunition too.

"Shameless! You have more support than I do!" The remnant of the will almost cursed when it saw Warlord attacking.

"It's not enough for them. You should send more," Lin Huang could not help but tease again as he noticed that the speed of the monsters coming out of the crater was slower than Warlord and the rest while Kylie's Nephilic Judge army was so bored that they began to collect carcasses.

"You…" The remnant of the will was so mad that it was speechless.

"Please just bring out whatever you have. Since peak-stage ascendance-levels don't work on us, you should reify human immortal-level monsters. Maybe it would work." Lin Huang looked calm as he planted the idea.

"You're just depending on your summoning beasts. Without them, you're nothing!" The remnant of the will turned calm all of a sudden while a black ray shot out of the dragon's eyes. It caught Lin Huang off-guard. In a flash, the black ray penetrated his eyes.

Suddenly, Lin Huang could no longer move.

The giant dragon above the crater closed its eyes slowly.

Meanwhile, although Lin Huang, who was hovering above the giant dragon carcass, had his eyes opened, he could not move as his aura was being suppressed entirely.

Sensing Lin Huang's aura changing, Bai and the rest had a drastic shift of expression. They were stopped by Bloody's voice transmission just when they were about to dash toward him.

"Don't worry, Master's fine. Just do your part and guard outside. Don't let any monsters come in."

Bai and the rest were relieved to hear that.

Hiding in Lin Huang's sleeve, Bloody was rather worried. It knew that Lin Huang was not wounded in that situation. Instead, he had been pulled into dreamland by the remnant of the will. It was uncertain whether Lin Huang could leave the dream alive.

Meanwhile, in the present dreamland.

All that Lin Huang felt was a flash before his eyes before he found himself in a quiet place when he snapped back to his senses.

He was still where he had been earlier. The giant black dragon that was in a deep slumber was still beneath his feet while it occupied the same volcano.

However, there was no monster horde around. Even his summoning beasts had vanished.

Not only had Bai and the rest disappeared, but even Bloody that had been hiding in his sleeve was nowhere to be seen too.

The giant black dragon beneath him opened its eyes all a sudden and ridiculed with its mouth wide open, "Being a Demontamer's such a weak profession. You're nothing without your summoning beasts!"

"If I'm not mistaken, this should a dream. Am I right?" Soon, Lin Huang realized what had just happened.

The stone tablet had also foreseen this.

"That's right, and this will be where you die!" The remnant of the will's voice boomed again.

"Well, I'm not sure about that." Lin Huang shook his head while smiling. "Although we're in a dream while your level of exhaustion is much lesser than direct reification, your Life Power will still continue to drain even in a dream. Moreover, the rules apply similarly in reification whereby the more powerful and more monsters you summon, the more power you'll drain. The more intense our fight is, the more the exhausting it is for you to maintain the dreamland."

"Neither of us knows whether I'll die in this dreamland or you'll be completely drained first."

"Seems like old man Gong Sun has told you a lot," said the remnant of the will, puzzling Lin Huang.

"Old man Gong Sun?"

"Stop playing dumb. There are only two True Gods' will in this world. Moreover, apart from old man Gong Sun, nobody knows about my existence, let alone my techniques."

Lin Huang barely understood what the remnant of the will meant. It thought that the other remnant of the will had gotten him to go there. It put Lin Huang in doubt as old man Gong Sun sounded like the family name of a human but according to the stone tablet, the other True God's will was also a monster.

Lin Huang did not bother to explain the remnant of the will's misunderstanding as he did not want to expose the stone tablet's existence.

Since Lin Huang kept mum, the remnant of the will thought that he was admitting its speculation.

"It's useless even if old man Gong Sun told you about my techniques because, I'm the ruler of the entire world in this dreamland!"

As soon as the remnant of the will proclaimed that, an insane amount of monsters began rushing out of the crater beneath the giant dragon. Just like a beehive that had been poked, the monsters tore toward Lin Huang as though the floodgates were opened.

Lin Huang had a slight change of expression at that second. He summoned Killer, the Evil Dominator, Lancelot, Charcoal, Grimace, Kylie, Bloody, the Imp, Warlord, the Death Knight, the Fallen Knight, and the two Dark Crescent Snakes.

Killer, the Evil Dominator, and Lancelot had combat strength of pseudo-mythical-level which was on par with imperial-level crimson gold-ranks. As long as Lin Huang provided them with endless Life Power, they would have stunning lethality among an imperial-level black gold-rank monster horde.

Combined, the two knights and the two Dark Crescent Snakes were on par with pseudo-mythical-level combat strength.

Meanwhile, the reason he summoned Charcoal was that the intensity of its Dragon Flame could wound imperial-level black gold-rank monsters. Even though the Dragon Flame was not enough to kill, it could cripple the monsters on a wide scale.

The Imp's Meteoric Descent, on the other hand, could cause casualty to imperial-level black gold-rank monsters.

Although Grimace's magic could hardly kill any imperial-level black gold-rank monsters, it would work wonders to cause confusion among the monster horde.

Kylie, Bloody, and Warlord had armies of their own. Their armies were much more powerful than their own personal abilities.

Beneath, the remnant of the will was stunned as soon as the 13 monsters were summoned.

"You're pretty smart to master the basic rule of the dreamland so soon."

"Someone's stellar at teaching," Lin Huang complimented with a faint smile.

Naturally, he was not talking about old man Gong Sun like the remnant of the will thought, but about the stone tablet.

The remnant of the will was indeed the ruler of the dreamland. As long as it was not exhausted, it was almost invincible in this dreamland.

However, it would need to connect its own dreamland with Lin Huang's forcefully to pull him in.

On a certain level, Lin Huang, who was dragged into the dreamland by the Nightmare Dragon, was also the ruler of the dreamland too.

However, the Nightmare Dragon knew the rule of dreamland like the back of its hand. That was how it managed to defeat the others in this world who were also the rulers as easy as pie.

It was just like a professional chess player dragging a rookie who knew nothing about the rules of chess into a chess game. Although the rookie had the same number of chess pieces as the professional player did, it was almost impossible for the former to win.

Although Lin Huang had learned about the rules of this dreamland from the stone tablet, it was impossible for him to master it as soon as he entered the dreamland. All he could do was to follow the stone tablet's instruction, which was to start with the things and ability that he had in order to familiarize with the rule.

The rule of this dreamland was very simple: anything that you believed in would come true.

Lin Huang believed that he possessed Monster Cards, which was why even though it was his first time entering the dreamland, he could summon his Monster Cards in a snap.

The remnant of the will thought that Lin Huang would panic because he was dragged in from the outside world and would not know what to do when his summoning beasts were nowhere to be seen. Never did he expect Lin Huang to summon his summoning beasts again calmly as soon as he got there.

The monsters that he summoned in the dreamland completely inherited the true abilities of Bloody and the rest. They were ridiculously compelling.

Although it was gravely difficult, they managed to fight back against those beginner-stage human immortal-level monsters that were on par with imperial-level black gold-ranks.

Lin Huang even noticed that the dragon carcass controlled by the remnant of the will had a slight change of expression.

"Since beginner-stage human immortal-level monsters can't defeat you, I'll see how you fight advanced-stage human immortal-level monsters!"

It had been half an hour, and a huge chunk of the remnant of the will's energy had been drained. Its effort was to no avail. To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, the remnant of the will went all out and increased two ranks of the monster horde.

As soon as it spoke, the advanced-stage human immortal-level monsters that were comparable with imperial-level yellow gold-rank monsters began crawling out of the crater. Their aura was so powerful that it was bone-chilling.

Monsters of such a level surpassed the abilities of Lancelot and the rest ability even though they were on pseudo-mythical-level. The only monster that could match them was the parasitic army under Bloody. However, even with Bloody's parasitic army, the most that they could do was to fight six to seven imperial-level yellow gold-rank monsters at once. They would not be able to handle any more than that.

Lin Huang observed the monster horde beneath him while frowning slightly. He recalled all of his Monster Cards eventually. He knew that he had to bring out the real trump card now.

Chapter 878: Invincible Combat Souls

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Even Lin Huang himself would only have an ability which was on par with an imperial-level white gold-rank by using the knights combined or an imperial-level crimson gold-rank substitute,

Even so, it was rather difficult to kill an imperial-level yellow gold-rank monster in one blow. It would be possible if he encountered an imperial-level yellow gold-rank monster with a normal defense ability, but one hit was definitely not enough if he was to encounter monsters that had a powerful defense or some unique defensive skill.

Moreover, due to the combat strength limitation of his body, Lin Huang had a limited time maintaining imperial-level crimson gold-rank combat strength. It was almost impossible for him to fight the advanced-stage human immortal-level monster horde that was on par with imperial-level yellow gold-rank on his own.

However, Lin Huang did not seem panicked at all as he watched the monster horde approach.

He had more than one trump card to handle that sort of trouble. There was one that he had never used in battles, which was the God Figurine's Combat Soul.

Lin Huang had killed more than four million monsters throughout the past few days since the monster horde broke out. Although those were just holy fire-level and immortal-level monsters, the change in volume caused an impressionable qualitative change. The number of monsters killed elevated the three Combat Souls in Lin Huang's body from imperial-level crimson gold-rank to imperial-level yellow gold-rank.

The three Combat Souls took on the physical appearance of the Protoss' God Figurines. Using the True Spirit in the True Spirit Guide as their template, they were made from spiritual energy extracted from Divine Fire. If one were to consider the rarity of the monsters, they might far exceed that of quadruple mutated mythical-level monsters.

Lin Huang knew very well that even he would not be able to defeat these God Figurines' Combat Souls with the same combat strength.

Moreover, God Figurines' Combat Souls were almost indestructible physically. As long as his Divine Fire provided them with infinite energy, the God Figurines' Combat Souls would have no limitation in their strength at all whereby they could fight forever without feeling exhausted. One could say they were definitely a valuable battle conquest weapon.

Without hesitation, Lin Huang summoned the three God Figurines' Combat Souls as he thought about this point.

The three God Figurines' Combat Souls solidified above Lin Huang's head instantly. However, he wanted to chuckle when he saw how they looked like.

There was a skinny little sapling that was only around three meters tall, a little white cat that was smaller than a palm, and a little elephant the similar size as a Swine Beast.

The three combat souls seemed underaged no matter how he looked at them. They did not seem to have the ability to fight at all.

"Are you really summoning three young beasts' Combat Souls that have no combat strength at all to fight? Are you here to make fun of yourself?" The remnant of the will was stunned when it saw this and it teased while laughing.

Lin Huang had no idea what caused the combat strength of the three Combat Souls not to be sensed by outsiders. However, he clearly sensed that the three Combat Souls were all imperial-level yellow gold-rank. He did not doubt the three little beasts' abilities at all.

"Let me see what you've got, you little beasts." Hearing Lin Huang's order, the three Combat Souls whisked toward the monster horde.

The remnant of the will smirked on the dragon's face. It was waiting to guffaw when the three little beasts drowned in the monster horde. However, the expression on its face soon turned into shock and surprise.

Without waiting for the monster horde to come closer, the tiny sapling shook its branches and released a glaring golden ray instantly.

As soon as the golden ray shone on them, all the monsters began to burn. In less than three seconds, the tens of thousands of monsters were burnt to ashes.

One must understand that those were advanced-stage human immortal-level monsters that were on par with imperial-level yellow gold-ranks. Tens of thousands of them were exterminated by the tiny sapling in one hit in the blink of an eye.

The two little beasts, on the other hand, were just as capable.

The little white cat the size of a palm hovered in the air alone. As it scratched the air with its sharp claws, five silver threads were formed. All of the monsters were sliced into six wherever the threads passed, and they died on the spot.

Including the monsters that had a defensive ability that was on par with imperial-level white gold-rank, they were as fragile as a sheet of paper under the little white cat's claw attack.

Meanwhile, the little elephant had a more direct way of attacking.

It stomped one of its front feet in the air, making a terrifying wave ripple outward. All the monsters' heads exploded wherever the wave passed. It was as if something had imploded in their heads, and countless headless monster carcasses fell all over the ground.

The attack of the three God Figurines' Combat Souls astounded the remnant of the will completely.

Not even many imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses could kill that many imperial-level yellow gold-rank monsters at once as efficiently like that.

Lin Huang was shocked at that very moment. It was not his first time summoning the God Figurines' Combat Souls, but he had just done a simple test on them before this. It was clear that they had not exhibited their full strength back then. It was his first time seeing their full blast ability without holding back at all.

Lin Huang had to admit that these three Combat Souls' abilities had exceeded his expectation by leaps and bounds.

After a pregnant pause of doubts and silence, the remnant of the will seemed to recall something and shouted in rage, "This is Protoss' aura! Human prick, how dare you make the Protoss God Figurines your Combat Souls?!"

"Ahh, you see through them…" Lin Huang did not bother to hide the fact since the remnant of the will found out about that.

"You don't have to look so shocked. Yes, I made God Figurines into Combat Souls, but I bet many of you among the Protosses have activated God Figurines and made them into Corpse Slaves. Compared to what I did, what they've done is hundreds of folds worse than me! Why don't you condemn them instead?"

Even though Lin Huang told him the truth, the remnant of the will was enraged. "This is our business. How dare you, a human, do this to our Protoss' corpses?!"

"I've already done it, so what are you going to do about that?" Lin Huang grinned devilishly. "After I've destroyed you, your dragon carcass will be my next Combat Soul!"

"You're asking for death!" The remnant of the will was consumed in total fury now.

The aura of the monsters that were rushing out of the crater elevated again. From advanced-stage human immortal-level, it skipped peak-stage human immortal-level directly and upgraded to complete-stage human immortal-level. It was on par with imperial-level purple gold-rank.

The speed of the three Combat Souls' killing went through an obvious drop after monsters of that level were released.

Since the long-range attack could no longer kill those monsters in one blow, the three Combat Souls rushed into the monster horde to fight the monsters.

The little sapling pitched its few branches like whips. All of the monsters would be killed wherever the whips traveled. However, the range of the attack was now less than ten meters and the efficiency was much lower than before.

The little white cat was speeding across the monsters. It was so quick that even the imperial-level purple gold-rank monsters could not see it. It sliced all of the monsters into shreds with its claws wherever it passed.

The little elephant, on the other hand, was crashing around blindly. It would hit the monsters it encountered right away no matter what kind they were. The imperial-level purple gold-rank monsters were trampled and died from ruptured organs.

Meanwhile, the attacks of those complete-stage human immortal-level monsters did nothing to the three Combat Souls. None of the attacks managed to break their defenses.

Although the three Combat Souls only had a combat strength of imperial-level yellow gold-rank, the ability at which they were performing was close to demigod-level.

However, due to the decline in killing efficiency from the three Combat Souls, some of the monsters began to break through their defenses and raced toward Lin Huang.

Lin Huang was not alarmed at all seeing that. He brought out 23 God Crashers from his Emperor's Heart Ring while beginning to fire each one of them after connecting them with his telekinetic threads.

Tonnes of imperial-level purple gold-rank monsters were killed as soon as the God Crashers were fired.

Since it was a dreamland, Lin Huang was not worried about exhausting the God Crashers at all. He was having fun firing at the monsters without having to worry about anything.

Time passed quickly, and another half an hour flew by.

The imperial-level purple gold-rank monster horde could not get any closer to Lin Huang.

He saw the emotion the remnant of the will on the giant dragon's face clearly. It was clenching its teeth in anger.

"Are you having a spasm on your face?" Lin Huang remembered to show 'kindness' as he had time to spare while controlling the God Crashers. "Eat more food that cleanses the arteries like kelp and oatmeal."

"Do you really think that that's all that I got?" The remnant of the will growled. Even though it was not screaming, Lin Huang could hear the wrath in its voice.

As he hovered above the head of the dragon carcass, he said nothing but showed a beckoning sign to the remnant of the will beneath him with a smirk.

"You're asking for trouble!" The remnant of the will finally unleashed its fury.

The dragon carcass beneath him had two glaring white rays shining from its eyes.

Chapter 879: 18,000 God Crashers!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Glaring white rays shot out from the Nightmare Dragon's eyes, making the entire dreamland shake.

As the white rays faded a while later, the hundreds of thousands of imperial-level purple gold-rank monsters in the horde melted like snow under the blazing sun.

The Nightmare Dragon occupying the top of the volcano that was initially dead was resurrected rapidly while its combat strength experienced a boost.

Mortal transformation-level, ascendance-level, human immortal-level… Earth immortal-level!

In the blink of an eye, the aura of the dragon carcass skyrocketed to a level that shocked Lin Huang to his very core.

"Virtual god-level?!" Lin Huang's pupils shrunk. He clearly sensed that the intensity of the aura was definitely not only on demigod-level, but even higher.

Only a real God could make his soul that had Divine Telekinesis consolidated around it shiver so violently.

As the white rays faded, the Nightmare Dragon's eyes that were looking at Lin Huang lost the rage that it held earlier. The only thing left was indifference and coldness.

It was the attitude only a superior reserved for a low-rank person. The difference of ranking was like comparing a giant dragon to a measly ant.

The Nightmare Dragon had no change of emotion at all when it looked at Lin Huang. A single word came out of its mouth calmly.

"Die!"

Just when Lin Huang was about to do something, he realized he could no longer move. It seemed like he was stuck in a space filled with glue whereby he could hardly move his fingers.

On the other hand, the Nightmare Dragon lifted a dragon claw slowly. The claw arrived less than a meter near Lin Huang in the next second.

As the claw was about to touch Lin Huang's body, a white silhouette came out of nowhere. It brought Lin Huang with it and appeared a few kilometers away in the next second. Lin Huang, who was constrained, finally broke away from it.

It was the Ninetails Lynx's Combat Soul which did that.

Meanwhile, the other two God Figurines' Combat Souls attacked the Nightmare Dragon at the same time.

The two God Figurines' Combat Souls underwent a major change in their size. They expanded to the mass of the Nightmare Dragon in the blink of an eye.

The Divine Sun Tree had fire all over while its branches turned into flaming whips that went after the Nightmare Dragon's body.

The Destructive Divine Mammoth that had black armor all over it lifted both its front legs that were covered in black metal and crushed the Nightmare Dragon.

"Get out!" As the Nightmare Dragon shrieked, a black ray came out of its body. The Divine Sun Tree's branches dangling on its body were torn apart by the black ray.

The Nightmare Dragon seized the opportunity to retaliate as it lifted its claws to smack the Divine Sun Tree's branches. The fire on the Divine Sun Tree extinguished and it flew away. Its body shrunk back to its original size in the air.

In the next second, the Nightmare Dragon threw its gigantic boa-like black tail into the air as a ferocious gleam flashed through its eyes. Its attack that came later collided with the Destructive Divine Mammoth's two front legs.

It was as if millions of thunderstorms exploded in the air while strong winds rippled like waves. Even Lin Huang, who was a few kilometers away, almost fell down from the impact.

A moment later, the Destructive Divine Mammoth let out a devastating groan and its gigantic body was slammed a distance away like a cannon. It spat a mouthful of blood out when it was in mid-air. Just like the Divine Sun Tree, its body shrunk rapidly.

Lin Huang was relieved upon sensing the condition of the two God Figurines' Combat Souls.

Only true god-level ability could destroy a true god-level's flesh. The Nightmare Dragon only had virtual god-level combat strength after all, so it was difficult for it to kill them. However, due to the vast difference in combat strength, the flesh-on-flesh collision affected the souls and wounded both of them.

The two Combat Souls might be dead now if the Nightmare Dragon had performed a spiritual-type attack that it was an expert in earlier.

The remnant of the will did not have such a technique. It was easy for Lin Huang to figure out that it did not have much energy left now. Using spiritual energy directly would deplete its will gravely.

"You won't be able to run this time!" After getting rid of the two God Figurines' Combat Souls, the Nightmare Dragon fixed its eyes on Lin Huang again with an intent will to kill. It opened its mouth wide, a navy blue force consolidating in its mouth quickly.

Lin Huang was not constrained this time; the Nightmare Dragon did not seem worried that he might run away at all. Perhaps it was because there was no way that he could flee as soon as the dragon flame went out.

Lin Huang was familiar with such a dragonkin. Naturally, he knew that the Nightmare Dragon was going to spit dragon flames.

The Ninetails Lynx that was standing on Lin Huang's shoulder sensed the crisis and arched its back, exhibiting a cat's natural behavior when it was threatened.

However, Lin Huang was extremely calm while the deadly attack was being charged. He patted the Ninetails Lynx's back. "I should be able to handle this."

As soon as he said that, Lin Huang brought out 23 God Crashers from his storage space.

Naturally, that many God Crashers would not be able to handle the virtual god-level attack. However, the 23 God Crashers before Lin Huang seemed to have a cloning ability and they began to duplicate swiftly. There were over 18,000 God Crashers in a blink of an eye.

In reality, Lin Huang only had 23 God Crashers but this was a dreamland. He could clone as many God Crashers as he wanted.

The over 18,000 God Crashers hovered in the air before Lin Huang like a navy parade.

There was a telekinesis thread connected to each God Crasher.

Sensing the unusual activity coming from Lin Huang, the Nightmare Dragon did not proceed to consolidate its dragon flame. It opened its mouth wide while dark blue dragon flames shot out. It was like a tsunami expanding toward Lin Huang disastrously.

At that moment, Lin Huang activated his Divine Telekinesis where the battalion of more than 18,000 God Crashers was fired at the same time.

Explosive red sparks formed into a gigantic shockwave instantly. The terrifying red ray of light shot out and occupied half of the sky immediately.

It was Bloody's idea to combine all the God Crashers to attack. It also Bloody calculated the angle of the arrangement.

That was the only arrangement that could get the 18,000 God Crashers to merge the attacks into one.

Naturally, such merging was only feasible in theory but difficult to do in reality. However, it was a dreamland. As long as Lin Huang could think of it and believe in it, the attack would definitely materialize.

Perhaps one God Crasher could do nothing to a virtual god-level powerhouse, but it was a different story when there were so many of them. The combo attack from the tens of thousands of God Crashers meant that the boost in power was thousands of times stronger as well. It was not to be underestimated naturally.

The dragon flame that was like an ocean wave soon collided with the gunfire that was forceful enough to tear the sky apart.

The crimson gunfire tore an opening in the dark blue dragon flames all the way to the end of the flames in an instant. The dragon flames were put out completely wherever the gunfire passed.

However, the gunfire was burning out rapidly in the process.

When it passed through the dragon flames completely, it was left with a red ball of light that was smaller than a fist.

The ball of light was then smashed by the Nightmare Dragon's giant claws.

The Nightmare Dragon lifted its head to look at its human opponent. It did not expect Lin Huang to be able to survive two of its most powerful attacks. There was fear in its eyes when it looked at him.

Lin Huang could not help but grin when the dragon flames were destroyed by the God Crashers.

He lifted his head to look at the Nightmare Dragon and spoke again, "If I'm not mistaken, I suppose your will's going out anytime now, isn't it?"

The Nightmare Dragon glared coldly at Lin Huang and said nothing.

"I still have a trump card that I've never used before. I'd like to see how powerful it is." Lin Huang sounded like he was casually chatting with a good friend. "If you're okay with it, I'll try it on you."

Chapter 880: The Fourth God Figurine!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Huang grabbed the Ninetails Lynx on his shoulder and placed it on his palm.

Meanwhile, he crushed an orange card with his other hand. It was a mythical-level Sorcerer Goddess Combat Soul Card.

The orange card turned into a salmon-colored ray and penetrated into the Ninetails Lynx's body.

Naturally, the Nightmare Dragon could not see that happening. All it sensed was that little white cat on Lin Huang's palm experiencing a ridiculous boost in its aura.

Its combat strength was elevating from imperial-level yellow gold-rank to white gold-rank, purple gold-rank…

To virtual god-level!

As the Ninetails Lynx hopped from Lin Huang's palm and hovered in the air, its body had grown to one meter long, excluding its tail.

It glared coldly at the Nightmare Dragon that was nearby. The glare alone gave the Nightmare Dragon chills.

Although they had the same combat strength on virtual god-level rank-1, the Ninetails Lynx felt like a top predator to the Nightmare Dragon.

It had doubt and confusion in its mind. It could not figure what kind of technique this ascendance-level human had performed to elevate a human immortal-level monster to such a terrifying Earth immortal-level.

However, it put the thought aside a moment later.

Sensing the threat looming from the Ninetails Lynx, the Nightmare Dragon initiated the attack without thinking twice.

Dragon flames shot out as soon as it opened its mouth. The disastrous flames were going after the Ninetails Lynx like a rolling wave. Compared to the dragon flames it released, the dragon flames Charcoal produced was complete child's play.

The dragon flames were earth-shattering as they covered thousands of kilometers in diameter.

What puzzled the Nightmare Dragon was how the white cat disappeared. The young human disappeared along with it at the same time.

Within the coverage of the dragon flames, the Nightmare Dragon could only sense the little elephant and the tree that it had attacked earlier.

The dragon flame did nothing to them; there was no charring on them at all.

Surprisingly, the unusual sapling was even absorbing its dragon flames secretly.

Right at that moment, the Nightmare Dragon sensed an intense danger coming from behind it.

It flapped its wings and flew into the sky, but it was a little too late to dodge the Ninetails Lynx's sneak attack.

A couple of ferocious rays flashed in the sky. Although the Nightmare Dragon dodged the attack that could have beheaded it, its right wing and right leg were chopped off. There were two deep wounds on its back too. They were so deep that its bones could be seen.

The single attack wounded the Nightmare Dragon severely until it could no longer move as agilely now.

'That's incredibly powerful!' The Nightmare Dragon had its guard up as it looked around, holding back its pain. Its flesh was healing at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.

However, there was fear growing in its heart. The Ninetails Lynx charged at it, taking it over completely.

The Ninetails Lynx's untraceable hiding technique and terrifying attack speed were out of its control.

As a monster that had the same combat strength as it did on virtual god-level rank-1, the Ninetails Lynx was so much more powerful than it was!

Soon, the Nightmare Dragon felt danger coming for the second time. It was even slower than the first time since its wounds had yet to recover completely.

A tearing sound was heard.

The Nightmare Dragon's left wing was ripped off. Its left back leg was chopped off after that. The wound on its back was even more serious than before. The second cut saw a cut on its cervical vertebra.

If the first attack affected the Nightmare Dragon's ability by 20%, this attack caused it to have less than 30% ability left.

After the second attack, the Ninetails Lynx attacked for the third time without waiting for the Nightmare Dragon to heal.

The attack impacted the Nightmare Dragon's cervical vertebra again, slicing it into pieces.

Its gigantic head fell from the lack of support from its cervical vertebra. However, it did not die as it was a tough Virtual God. Still, its mobility was majorly affected.

Despair kicked into the Nightmare Dragon. This battle was unfair to it since it could not capture the Ninetails Lynx's movement from the beginning until the end. If not for its sense of danger, it would have been dead from the start. It would not have been able to survive until now.

Lin Huang, who was riding on the Ninetails Lynx's back, finally could not help but say, "Alright, stop playing."

A cat was always fond of playing with its prey, and that was a trait the Ninetails Lynx inherited, but Lin Huang thought it was a bad habit.

Naturally, the Nightmare Dragon heard Lin Huang's voice and panicked. Just when it was thinking how to buy itself time, it felt chills running down its neck and it saw a headless dragon carcass fall slowly from the sky.

A myriad of colorless ferocious rays shot out and became larger in its eyes as it thought to itself, 'Is that… my dead body?'

Watching the dragon head being sliced into tens of pieces, the headless dragon carcass turned into broken bits instantly and disappeared in the sky.

Darkness engulfed Lin Huang's vision before he snapped back to his senses completely. When his vision recovered, he realized that he had gotten out of the dreamland.

Not only were the God Crashers before him all gone, but the three Combat Souls of the God Figurines were also gone, let alone the Ninetails Lynx with the Sorcerer Goddess Combat Soul Card.

Bai and the rest were still fighting the monster horde while Bloody was still in his sleeve.

The gigantic Nightmare Dragon carcass had lost all signs of resurrecting completely while its carcass shrunk rapidly. It turned into a black sculpture the size of his palm in the blink of an eye.

Lin Huang activated his Divine Telekinesis and grabbed the sculpture that was falling into the crater right into his palm.

The remnant of the Nightmare Dragon's will was destroyed and he had finally gotten the fourth God's Figurine!

"Are you alright?" Bloody asked immediately after sensing Lin Huang waking up.

"I'm fine. I was just dragged into the dreamland," Lin Huang explained.

Bloody figured what had happened naturally seeing the dragon carcass turned into God's Figurine.

Bai and the rest were finally relieved upon sensing that Lin Huang's aura was back to normal. They then put all of their focus into fighting the monster horde.

Since the dragon carcass disappeared, the volcano finally stopped releasing monsters. However, those monsters that were already reified did not disappear. They proceeded to attack Bai and the rest in a frenzy.

Sensing the unusual aura inside the volcano, above the volcano, Lin Huang turned to order Bai and the rest, "Please take care of this for me a while more. I'm going to check out what's happening in there."

He then brought Bloody along as he entered the volcano immediately.

Soon, Lin Huang arrived at the bottom of the volcano. His eyes lit up like jewels when he saw the mountains of monster bones and metal equipment.

The volcano was where the Nightmare Dragon kept its treasures!

"These monster bones and equipment basically have no more Holy Power." The stone tablet's voice came out of nowhere. "The reification of the monster horde should've come from here. The remaining energy of the Nightmare Dragon carcass was only conducive to the monster horde."

"It seems like the Nightmare Dragon set up a formation especially to absorb the Holy Power from those monster bones and god relics before it died. But now that it has turned into a God Figurine, the formation was deactivated automatically.

"This formation has existed for at least an era. These virtual god-level monster bones and normal god relics have no more Holy Power left. There are only a couple of monster bones and god relics which I think used to be true god-level that have Holy Power left in them."

"I can use these monster bones and god relics as materials even though there's no more Holy Power in them, right?" Lin Huang asked immediately.

"You can, but it's a little troublesome to process them."

"I can take care of them, but your authorization is restricted for now." Xiao Hei's voice rang out all of a sudden.

"Sure, they're all mine then!" Lin Huang smirked and got Bloody to categorize them.

"128 virtual god-level monster bones, 89 virtual god-level human bones, and 101 virtual god-level equipment that have no more Holy Power left. Three out of 12 true god-level monster bones still have Holy Power left and two out of 11 true god-level human bones have Holy Power left. There are also five out of 23 true god-level equipment that has Holy Power left, and there's one out of the five telekinesis weapons are suitable for you.

"Apart from that, there are still 128 storage rings that haven't been cleared out at the moment. We don't know how much valuable things are in them."

Lin Huang only left in satisfaction after spending half an hour clearing the entire volcano and categorizing all the monster bones and equipment into different storage rings.

He did not plan to stay after coming out of the crater.

Since the source of the monster horde was cut off, there were no more threats to the outside world. Moreover, without the never-ending monster horde, the people from the Union Government would be there soon.

Lin Huang ordered Kylie to put all of the monster carcasses away immediately as he thought about this point. Shortly, Kylie's Nephilic Judge army cleared all of the monsters away.

Lin Huang then recalled all of his Monster Cards in an instant while he turned into a tiny snake with red patterns and left the underground quietly.

Chapter 881: Returning to Enlightenment City

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was past two in the morning when Lin Huang got out of the underground. He did not stay in the abyss.

After summoning Kylie to clear the monster horde and carcasses, he recalled her and returned to Enlightenment City with his Dimensional Portal.

When Lin Huang appeared in the room of the inn directly, Tan Lang and the rest sensed the ripple of the Dimensional Portal immediately at the entrance of the room.

"You're finally back!" Tan Lang exhaled deeply when he saw that Lin Huang was back in one whole piece. Chan Dou had asked him to take good care of Lin Huang before they went there. If Lin Huang died, Tan Lang would be caught in a difficult position.

"Sorry, I was caught up with the monster horde. It took me a while to get rid of them," Lin Huang lied while grinning.

"As long as you're back. The abyss should have high-level immortal-level monsters coming out at midnight today. We can't fight a monster horde of such a level. We've spoken to the government residence last night about the different ways to guard the city. Take a good rest. I'll tell you more details tomorrow morning." After speaking to Lin Huang, Tan Lang left while tugging on Shen Tao and the rest. "You guys, please don't disturb Lin Xie. You can talk to him tomorrow morning."

"Sure, see you guys tomorrow morning." Lin Huang sent them off while smiling and nodding.

Naturally, he could not tell them about the monster horde that was already stopped. Tan Lang and the rest would find out about it a few days later anyway.

After sending them off, Lin Huang did not sleep right away. Instead, he took a shower and immersed himself in the bathtub.

He was not sleep-deprived in the past few days, but it had been a week since he last showered.

Being in the bathtub melted the stress that he had been feeling away slowly.

Although the fight with the remnant of the Nightmare Dragon's will was just on a conscious level, he had used up almost all of his trump cards and there was not a second that he let his guard down.

He took out the Nightmare Dragon's God Figurine from his storage space and caressed the black, aura-less sculpture softly. The sculpture looked exactly the same as the dragon carcass that occupied the crater, except that it was many folds smaller now.

This God Figurine was the biggest reward that Lin Huang had ever obtained since entering the Fallen God's Land.

"This Nightmare Dragon had the combat strength of a high-rank true god-level when it was still alive. Its ability matches a True Spirit called the Nightmare Tapir in the True Spirit Guide. The Nightmare Tapir's a powerful monster that masters the spirit force. Compared to the Nightmare Dragon, even an adult Nightmare Dragon can only consider itself a baby when it comes to controlling the spirit force compared to a Nightmare Tapir."

Lin Huang shook his head after hearing the stone tablet talk about the Nightmare Tapir.

"I'm not in a rush to refine the God Figurine at the moment." To the people from the Heaven Alliance, the elevation of Lin Huang's combat strength was already mind-blowingly fast. He did not want his combat strength to advance again when the Heaven Alliance members were around.

He knew very well that as soon as he refined the fourth God Figurine, his combat strength would officially be on mid-level immortal-level. There would definitely be a big leap in his overall ability by then.

If he elevated to mid-level immortal-level, it would mean that Bai and the rest would be upgraded to imperial-level black gold-rank.

Leaping to imperial-level black gold-rank would mean that they could construct their Life Palace, so Bai and the rest would have a great elevation in their ability.

Since he had obtained the fourth God Figurine, Lin Huang asked about the fifth one immediately, "You told me that there's another True God's will in this world. Do you know where it is?"

"I've only sensed it once. It's hiding somewhere deep." The stone tablet gave a negative answer. "But I should be able to sense it if it appears again."

"Sure, please take note of that for me. Inform me as soon as that comes up." Since there was no news about that at the moment, Lin Huang did not plan to dwell on that.

After putting the God Figurine away, Lin Huang took a golden metal cube box out and put it right next to the bathtub. The box that was a meter tall opened automatically as soon as he inserted his telekinesis in. A black metal sculpture of a bird monster revealed itself.

It was the only god relic that Lin Huang found from the Nightmare Dragon's loot that was suitable for him, a true god-level telekinesis weapon.

"Such fine craftsmanship!" Lin Huang could not help but exclaim.

"This telekinesis weapon's made of 36,000 parts. It looks like it has at least two forms as a whole and separately. The whole form should be a robotic puppet while the separated parts should be similar to your telekinetic flying dagger.

"The Divine Power from this telekinesis weapon is almost wearing out, but you can't activate it with your current combat strength at all. You could put it in your body and cultivate it with your Divine Fire to restore its Divine Power."

"So, when can I use it?" Lin Huang asked immediately.

"Either when your combat strength's elevated to demigod-level or virtual god-level, which is the basic standard of using Divine Power or when your pseudo-Divine Telekinesis turns into Divine Telekinesis. There are no other ways apart from these two," the stone tablet answered calmly.

"So, what should I do to cultivate it in my body?" Lin Huang proceeded to ask.

"A true god-level god relic's an item with a spirit. It'll sense it as soon as you insert your Divine Telekinesis."

Lin Huang did just that right away. He inserted his Divine Telekinesis into this telekinesis weapon.

It only took a moment for the black, metallic bird monster-like sculpture to have red sparks in its eyes. As it glanced at Lin Huang, the red sparks turned into a black ray and penetrated between Lin Huang's brows in the next second.

Lin Huang looked into his body. After some searching, he found out that the bird monster had entered his tenth Life Wheel directly and got into the blazing Divine Fire. It then hibernated in the fire.

After snapping back to reality, he realized that the golden box which contained the telekinesis weapon was gone too. His Divine Telekinesis seemed to have put it away for him earlier.

"Too bad there's no sword or armor god relic…" Lin Huang was rather disappointed after browsing through his Emperor's Heart Ring.

However, he became a little excited when he recalled there being more than 100 storage rings that he needed to sort.

He brought out the storage rings one after another and began to look through them attentively.

The more he looked, the more disappointed he was.

There were no god relics in those storage rings at all. There was not even one energy crystal. It was clear that the Nightmare Dragon had perused through those storage rings before.

There were only some metallic materials, recordings of methods, miscellaneous stuff that he could not identify, and many useless pill bottles. It had been too long. The pills in those bottles had lost their effect, so they were useless now.

Lin Huang even found two pet spatial rings in those 100-odd storage rings, but there was not even one pet monster in them. Even if there were, he suspected that they must have been killed by the Nightmare Dragon and placed in the pile of carcass bones at the volcano.

Fortunately, his search through those storage rings was not futile at all. Most of the metallic materials were in perfect condition and he could study those recordings of the methods too. He did not read through all of the methods, but he saw more than 20 sword skills.

"These sword skills should be of high quality. They are a god's collection after all," Lin Huang comforted himself after looking through all rings. "These storage rings aren't that shabby either. All of them have quite a large capacity."

Lin Huang stood up when he realized that it was past three in the morning while the water in the bathtub had gone a little cold now.

He slid into the bed, groaning, after wiping himself dry and putting his pajamas on.

"The bed in the inn is so much more comfortable!"

Chapter 882: What A Big, Handsome Hawk!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Huang only slept for less than four hours and woke up when it was around 7 a.m. His exhaustion fighting the remnant of the will was now washed away.

To a person on immortal-level, sleeping two to three hours a day would suffice. In reality, not sleeping for a few days would not pose a problem, except that he might be a little tired.

It would not be an issue if he was fighting someone ordinary. However, the slightest deterioration in performance due to his personal condition would cause defeat. When it came to fighting, proper rest was mandatory because the worst that could happen with a poor condition would be death.

Lin Huang made it a habit to maintain sufficient sleep every day. Having sufficient sleep allowed him to do whatever he wanted to do with all the energy and focus that he had, resulting in higher efficiency compared to if he lacked rest.

In reality, many transcendent-level people did the same. They would sleep at night if they did not encounter any unusual situations.

Lin Huang bumped into Tan Lang when he left after washing up.

"Let's have breakfast together. I'll tell you about what we discussed yesterday as we eat," Tan Lang invited, wearing a smile.

The inn did not provide breakfast in the morning, but there was a noodle stall that served delicious noodles and was open in the morning not far from the inn.

The duo headed straight to the noodle stall without hesitation when they arrived downstairs.

It was still early. Most of the tables in the noodle stall were vacant; only four of them were occupied.

Lin Huang and Tan Lang walked straight in and sat at a table by the window. Lin Huang ordered a bowl of regular beef noodles while Tan Lang ordered a bowl of assorted beef noodles. They also ordered two appetizers.

Tan Lang went over the discussion they had last night in a low tone to Lin Huang before the food was served.

"We have limited immortal-level powerhouses here compared to the number of monsters in the monster horde. So, in the discussion last night, we decided that we would mainly guard the area where the two city gates are. We'll place some long-range experts in the city to patrol the city walls and prevent monsters from climbing in.

"There'll be high-level immortal-level monsters next. Although your ability's strong enough to fight them, it'll spell trouble if you drown in the monster horde. Since you're a psychic and skilled in long-range attack, you should stay in the city to guard the city walls. Just get your summoning beasts to fight outside the city." Tan Lang was worried that something might happen to Lin Huang. After all, an Imperial Censor was not known for being talented in close-ranged attacks. Moreover, Lin Huang was a psychic which made him more suitable to defend the city.

"Oh right, I've been meaning to ask, how many imperial monsters can you summon?"

Lin Huang was stunned for a moment upon hearing that question. The summoning number an ordinary Imperial Censor would have flashed in his mind before he gave his answer. "Five, at best."

Under normal circumstances, most Imperial Censors would be restricted by their soul before they get to holy fire-level and they could only handle one imperial monster. Some who were talented could handle two at the most. Those were considered talented Imperial Censors while those who could handle three imperial monsters would be geniuses.

When they got to holy fire-level especially golden flame-level, most Imperial Censors could handle two to three imperial monsters at the same time since they had ample power within their souls. Only a handful could handle more than four imperial monsters at once, which was a rare feat.

Upon achieving immortal-level, most Imperial Censors would be able to handle more than four imperial monsters. It would be normal for one to handle five, but it was rare for an Imperial Censor to handle more than six.

His declaration of being able to handle a maximum of five imperial monsters would imply that he was an Imperial Censor who was above average.

Apart from taking that into consideration, Lin Huang even contemplated the summoning beasts that he could reveal at that moment. He only had five summoning beasts with rather low combat ability.

They were the Herculean King, Bing Wang, Thunder, the Malachian Fiend, and Bloody Robe.

In reality, he was unwilling to summon the Malachian Fiend. Defense-wise, the Malachian Fiend ranked second below Tyrant. Even imperial-level black gold-rank monsters could not break through its defenses.

Fortunately, the current monster horde was only high-level immortal-level. If they were to encounter triple mutated immortal-level rank-9 monsters that had a more powerful defense, it would make sense if they could not get through its defenses. The Herculean King could do the same and the rest should not be able to see through the Malachian Fiend's unusual trait.

"Why don't you keep one with you and the remaining four follow us? We'll get two of them each at the two city gates." Seeing Lin Huang frown a little as he answered that, Tan Lang thought he was unwilling to talk about his qualification as an Imperial Censor. He then shifted the topic to the imperial monsters' abilities immediately after he was done with the arrangement.

"How are the other imperial monsters' ability compared to the Herculean King?"

"They're more or less the same, I guess." Lin Huang smiled wryly. He had 22 immortal-level rank-9 summoning beasts under him at the moment.

The top echelon with combined abilities would include the three pseudo-mythical-level monsters: Lancelot, Killer, and the Evil Dominator, as well as Bloody that owned an army, and the two knights who could merge with the Dark Crescent Snakes. Grimace who owned puppet relics, Kylie, her army, and Warlord were considered in the same echelon as well.

The second echelon consisted of Bai, Charcoal, Tyrant, and the rest. Bai, Charcoal, and Tyrant initially belonged to the top echelon, but since they were stuck on triple mutation at the moment, they did not have a significant elevation in their ability. However, Lin Huang knew that they would have abilities that were on par with Lancelot's as soon as they advanced. The Eclipse Boa, Bloody Robe, the Inferior Imp, the Malachian Fiend, and the Witch who was far away in Division 7 were in the same echelon.

Those who were in the third echelon would be the Herculean King, Bing Wang, and Thunder. The two Dark Crescent Snakes would belong to this echelon too if not for the merging skill with the knights. They would even be slightly weaker than the Herculean King and the rest.

Tan Lang was stunned to hear Lin Huang stating that his imperial monsters had similar abilities as the Herculean King did. He then recalled the Herculean King mentioning that his ability was the lowest among Lin Huang's imperial monsters.

'Was what the Herculean King said the other day true?!' Tan Lang thought to himself and lifted his head to look at Lin Huang who seemed poker-faced.

Noticing his expression, Lin Huang figured out what Tan Lang was thinking about, so he explained immediately, "My imperial monsters consist of different types whereby some of them are exceptional in close-range battle and some are great at long-distance attacking. Some have notable speed while some are experts in strength. In reality, they've different directions when it comes to their development, so it's unfair to compare them with the Herculean King. I said they're more or less the same based on their overall standards. Not all of them have the same stunning ability in close-range battles like the Herculean King."

"I see." Tan Lang was finally relieved to hear Lin Huang's explanation.

Earlier, he had secretly calculated the probability of him winning if Lin Huang had five summoning beasts that had similar abilities with the Herculean King.

What he had no idea about was that he had zero chances of winning if he were to fight the team of the Herculean King, Bing Wang, Thunder, the Malachian Fiend, and Bloody Robe.

Bing Wang had the ability to slow someone down. As soon as Bloody Robe used the Punishment Chains, Tan Lang's probability of dying would be 100%. There was no way for him to survive at all; the other three monsters did not even have to move an inch to kill him.

Naturally, Lin Huang would not let Tan Lang know about that. He was going to ask Bloody Robe and the rest not to reveal their real abilities before they headed out to fight later.

After breakfast, the duo returned to the inn since Tan Lang had told Lin Huang everything about the discussion last night.

The ten of them from the Heaven Alliance gathered at 8 a.m.

"Li Jia and Lin Xie will be staying in the city, guarding the west and the north city walls. Some people from the government residence will be guarding them too. The rest will follow me out of the city. Four will go to the east city gate while another four will go to the south city gate." Tan Lang turned to look at Lin Huang after he was done with the explanation. "Lin Xie, you can summon your imperial monsters now."

Lin Huang nodded and appeared at the entrance of the inn as he took a step forward. He crushed five Monster Cards while rubbing the pet spatial rings.

The Herculean King, Bing Wang, Thunder, the Malachian Fiend, and Bloody Robe manifested themselves almost at the same time.

The people from the Heaven Alliance including Tan Lang held their breaths upon sensing the powerful aura rolling from the five summoning beasts.

They were familiar with Bing Wang since Lin Huang had summoned him at the Stairway Tree before. However, it was their first time seeing the other three imperial monsters.

"Five triple mutated immortal-level rank-9 imperial monsters!" Shen Tao could not help but gasp out loud.

The rest of them were thinking the same but they did not say it loudly.

"What a big, handsome hawk!" Tan Lang could not help but exclaim out loud. He fixed his eyes on Thunder and could not shift his attention away.

Arrogantly, Thunder looked down and peeped at Tan Lang, then glanced away like it did not care.

The Herculean King glanced at Tan Lang as well and scoffed in disdain.

Only then did Tan Lang snap back to his senses and look at the Herculean King while feeling embarrassed.

"Alright, Thunder will stay while the remaining four will follow you guys," Lin Huang announced and spoke to Bloody Robe and Malachian Fiend secretly, reminding them not to show their trump cards.

Tan Lang then left with the Herculean King and Bloody Robe unwillingly while the other four, led by Shen Tao, brought Bing Wang and the Malachian Fiend with them.

Chapter 883: Anchovies

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Tan Lang arrived at the east gate of Enlightenment City leading the other three of them from the Heaven Alliance and two imperial monsters, Deputy Governor He Tao was already fighting with six elders and 100 honorary immortal guards.

The advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters were out of the control of those ordinary immortal guards. Apart from the honorary immortal guards, no one had the ability to fight them.

Most of the honorary immortal guards from the government residence were on intermediate-stage ascendance-level. Only the leaders were on advanced-stage ascendance-level. Nonetheless, they were rich in battle experience.

They were put into teams of 13 while building a small battle formation with the leaders as the core. Each battle formation was like a complete individual, and their overall abilities were just as powerful as the Herculean King.

The five teams were at ease as they fought in the monster horde. Meanwhile, the other five teams stood on guard not far from the city, watching out for the monsters that they missed while waiting for their turn to fight later.

Deputy Governor He Tao already had attained a combat strength of peak-stage ascendance-level, so he was as strong as Shen Tao. He performed stunning Sword Manipulation and his ability was similar to the Sword Dominator who just a level below Lancelot.

The six elders were slightly weaker, but all of them had a combat strength of advanced-stage ascendance-level. Although they did not have powerful abilities individually, they had combined battle tactics that were slightly more powerful than the honorary immortal guard teams.

The disastrous monster horde was blocked three kilometers outside of the walls of Enlightenment City by the hundreds of people.

Upon noticing the mass, Tan Lang led the people into the battlefield.

All the Heaven Alliance members were genius powerhouses. Furthermore, all of them had combat strength on immortal-level rank-9. Therefore, fighting advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters that were on par with high-level immortal-levels was nothing difficult for them.

The battle turned one-sided as soon as the four of them leaped into the monster horde, especially Tan Lang who had a terrifying ability. He wore black battle armor and did not use any weapon. Many monsters were defeated the second he threw a punch at them.

He even had spare time to pay close attention to how the two imperial monsters were doing.

The Herculean King was stable as usual. He was like an invincible tank in the monster horde whereby all the monsters would be killed everywhere he passed.

Those advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters could not break its defenses at all.

After watching the Herculean King's fight with admiration, Tan Lang then shifted his attention to Bloody Robe.

Bloody Robe hovered in the air calmly while his robe fluttered in the wind. He extended a hand out of the robe all of a sudden. There was no flesh on his hand at all. Instead, there was a bone that was as white as snow with phalanges that were over 20 centimeters long.

The ground began shaking as he clenched his fist slightly. A moment later, volcanoes formed rapidly while fiery, red spiritual lava spouted out of them in a frenzy. Within hundreds of kilometers, Bloody Robe seemed to be on some sort of stage from which lava spewed out like ocean waves, swallowing many monsters. The single attack alone killed tens of thousands of monsters.

Everyone was dumbstruck watching Bloody Robe doing that. Secretly observing him, Tan Lang's jaw dropped.

Noticing Tan Lang's gaze, Bloody Robe glared at him with his blue eyes while expanding the lava river like it was no big deal. The lava was reaching out to those monsters that were further away.

As the battle was heating up at the east gate, they had their hands full at the south gate too.

Another Deputy Governor from the government residence led six elders and ten honorary immortal guard teams in the battle.

Shen Tao led the people from the Heaven Alliance and the two imperial monsters into the battlefield.

The four of them from the Heaven Alliance thought Bing Wang and the Herculean King had the same battle technique. After all, apart from their different hair color, they looked exactly like twins.

However, they realized their judgment was gravely wrong when the ground began to freeze as Bing Wan stomped down. Countless monsters turned into semi-transparent ice sculptures immediately.

Bing Wang's ability to kill groups was so much more powerful than the Herculean King's.

The advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters could not challenge his frozen ability at all.

The four of them from the Heaven Alliance secretly exclaimed that they were in luck after seeing Bing Wang's attack.

Meanwhile, the Malachian Fiend had the same battle technique as the Herculean King whereby it sprinted into the monster horde like a tank.

There would be a metal clanking noise whenever the monsters charged at him as if their offenses hit a piece of metal. Apart from that, there were no wounds that could be found on his body.

The Malachian Fiend's muscular arms were his best weapon. One monster was destroyed for every punch it threw. No second punch was needed to exterminate them.

Even Shen Tao was stunned to see that. He quietly wondered to himself if he was a match for the Malachian Fiend if they were to fight one-on-one.

Bloody had been watching the battle outside the city gates, but it did not project the scene to Lin Huang since there were people from the government residence with him.

There were two honorary immortal guard teams and thousands of ordinary immortal guards on each of the west and the north city walls.

Lin Huang was on the north city wall with the people from the government residence at the moment.

The monster horde was coming from the southeastern direction and there were teams blocking them on both flanks. Only some monsters took a detour and got close to the city occasionally.

At least, there was nothing within Lin Huang's field of vision. Apart from a couple of monster carcasses lying below the wall, there was not even one monster that was attacking in the area.

The immortal guards from the government residence were bored. Most of them had their eyes glued to Thunder that was next to Lin Huang. They could not hide the envy on their faces.

Thunder had shiny grayish-black feathers with beautiful golden patterns on them. Its body was long and elegant, and there were purple electric discharges flickering around its body occasionally.

From the looks of it, Thunder was almost perfect. Moreover, the aura that it released was almost on the same level as the governor.

This imperial monster was almost every powerhouse's desired flying mount.

Even the two honorary immortal guard leaders who were usually disciplined could not help but take the initiative to speak to Lin Huang about Thunder. "What're the attributes of this hawk?"

"It has both attributes of wind and lightning."

"Does it fly fast?"

"Pretty fast."

"What do you usually feed it?"

"Ugh, well…" Lin Huang wanted to say that he usually did not feed it and soon recalled Thunder asked for anchovies for junk food the last time, so he replied shamelessly, "I usually feed it fish…"

"I like eating snakes too," Thunder spoke through voice transmission secretly.

"Sometimes, I feed it snakes too," Lin Huang added brazenly.

As the people from the government residence chatted, in his mind, Lin Huang was caught in a pickle.

If he went to the government residence to redeem points for the insane amount of demons that he killed, the news would definitely spread quickly.

If that happened, not only would he expose his ability, but the people from the Union Government might also figure out that it was him who had taken the God Figurine away as soon as they heard the news when they got out of underground.

Although there was no need for him to fear those powerhouses from the Union Government who came into the Fallen God's Land, it was inevitable that trouble would come knocking on his doorstep.

'Should I disguise myself and redeem points from other government residences or sects?'

Chapter 884: Beaten!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was 11 p.m. and this happened in the underground beneath the gully of the abyss.

After exactly 23 hours, the Union Government army finally arrived close to the volcano where the Nightmare Dragon was after traveling across over 5,000 kilometers.

At that moment, the 200-strong army had dwindled down to 176 people. The 176 people separated into a couple of smaller groups and began their search.

Fu Qingwei frowned as she looked around. She mumbled to herself softly while feeling puzzled, "That's strange. The coordinates Gong Sun gave is somewhere around here, but why can't we find the source of the monster horde?"

As the leader of the mission from the Union Government this time and the head of EA.2, she was sure that the information was legit.

"There's something here!" Someone from one of the teams shouted all of a sudden.

Fu Qingwei headed there immediately in a flash.

One of the members in the team voiced his observation, "There seem to be battle traces on the ground and they're recent."

The other few EA.2 members landed on the ground and took a careful look around.

The marks on the ground seemed to be cut by some kind of sword, but it might be caused by a monster with sharp claws too.

Fu Qingwei scowled slightly after looking around for a while.

"The monsters around this volcano have all been cleared!" All of the teams stopped searching immediately and joined the hunting team.

Around 20 minutes later, they finally cleared the area around the volcano and the ground was revealed. The people from the Union Government could eventually see the traces left from the battle of Bai and the rest as well as the pools of blood that had seeped into the ground.

"There are many battle traces around the volcano which is obviously not the result of a fight between monsters. The blood all over the ground has been here for less than 24 hours." The few EA.2 members came up with the same conclusion after checking the area thoroughly.

They had been beaten!

"There are saber marks, sword marks, frozen marks, burn marks and gunfire marks left from a firearms master… The battle covered a wide surface. It seems like it was a one-sided, large-scale massacre. It was clearly not done by a person. Only a huge army could've orchestrated such a thing!"

"But who would know about the Nightmare Dragon apart from us?" Fu Qingwei was a little puzzled. "That fella called Gong Sun mentioned that he didn't tell anyone else when he told us about it."

"What if Gong Sun lied?" A girl dressed in a camo asked softly.

Fu Qingwei was stunned when she heard this suggestion. The truth was right before her eyes, and it seemed like there was no other explanation.

If Gong Sun had not exposed the information to anyone else apart from them, there would not have been a second group of people who knew about the Nightmare Dragon's existence and they would not have been defeated.

"I would suspect the people from Dynasty if they hadn't been killed by the Luotian Sect," a young man with a buzzcut voiced his opinion. He was also one of the EA.2 members, and his name was Fei Yun.

Dynasty was the first name that flashed through Fu Qingwei's mind because it was the most capable one among the underground organizations that came in this period. They were the most likely culprits.

However, Dynasty had been killed by a local organization. She even got someone to confirm the news when she first heard about it a few days ago.

"Maybe it's the Purple Crow or Saint, or maybe it's the heretics. The heretics have the most techniques. It seems like their style whereby they leave quietly after taking everything and avoid a face-to-face confrontation with us," said a short, muscular hunk. He was also an EA.2 member, and his name was Feng Yong.

Fu Qingwei turned to look at the man in white robes next to her. "Can you predict this?"

"The success rate isn't high since it involves god, but I can try." The white-robed man nodded.

His name was Cao Zhen, and he was the only Diviner in the team.

The Union Government had released a piece of news earlier, saying they had two Diviners working for them. The intention was to confuse people out there so that the Diviner would not be targeted by underground organizations.

The probability of an underground organization assassinating the Diviner would be high if they knew that the Union Government only had one Diviner.

However, the underground organization would consider acting if there were two Diviners. The reason being it would only work if they were to kill both Diviners since killing one was futile. However, killing two would be much more difficult than killing one, and the price to pay might be higher too.

Cao Zhen took out a tortoise shell and three coins. He slotted the coins into the empty shell and performed a complicated hand signal as he chanted.

The tortoise shell hovered in the air and began rolling by itself.

As Cao Zhen grabbed the tortoise shell after he was done with the hand signal a while later, the shell exploded. Together with the coins, they shattered into dust.

Cao Zhen's hand hung in the air and he only retracted it after a while. He shrugged his shoulders and looked helplessly at Fu Qingwei. "It doesn't work."

"Let's see if we can find anything else." Since the prediction failed, Fu Qingwei did not get Cao Zhen to try again. She pointed at the volcanoes before them. "Look through those few volcanoes too."

The people from the Union Government separated into more than ten teams and began scanning around.

Around half an hour later, the teams that were responsible in the investigation came back one after another. Their effort was to no avail.

"It seems like the organization that took the God Figurine didn't leave us anything at all." Fu Qingwei was so pissed that she was smirking at their own stupidity.

"Let's return to Weiyang City!"

"Do we go back empty-handed?" Feng Yong said a little unwillingly.

"What else can we do? There's nothing here!" Fu Qingwei glared at him in annoyance.

"Let's go back for now. The Nightmare Dragon's God Figurine has been taken and the monster horde has ended. We can always come back if we want to in the future." Cao Zhen signaled Feng Yong immediately so that he would not get himself into any more trouble.

"There are too many cultivators who practice sword and saber, so it's difficult to find out who it was. But there aren't many cultivators who have frost and fire attributes. Neither are there many firearm masters." A ferocious gleam flashed through Fu Qingwei's eyes. "Help me find out when we get out. I'd love to see which organization has the capability of beating us!"

Lin Huang was just getting into bed at the Inn at the moment. He had no idea that Fu Qingwei and the people from EA.2 were cursing him underground.

However, he figured that it was about time the people from the Union Government arrived at the Nightmare Dragon's previous coordinates.

"The people from the Union Government should arrive there soon. I wonder when will the news of the end of monster horde spread." Lin Huang did not sleep as he lay in bed. His head was occupied with things that he needed the handle later. "I must find time to excuse myself from the Heaven Alliance to trade those monster carcasses for resources after the news comes out…"

"Now the biggest trouble is that True God's will called Gong Sun. The stone tablet can't locate it as long as it's in hiding."

Chapter 885: Blamed Out of Nowhere

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was almost 2 a.m. when the Union Government army rushed back to Weiyang City after their failed mission.

They spread the news of the passing of the monster horde the next morning. However, they did not mention that they were beaten and took the credit of solving the monster horde crisis.

Lin Huang was elated to hear the news from the Union Government early that morning. The way the Union Government hid the truth was precisely the outcome he wanted.

He did not care that they took the credit. He had all of the physical benefits in his storage space anyway. All he cared about was the hushed fortune that he was getting.

However, the people from the Heaven Alliance were shocked to hear the news.

"They're worthy of their name to be daring enough to go to the gully and fight the source of the monster horde." Even Tan Lang admired the Union Government's guts.

"They've got the upper hand of people in numbers. We could've done it too if there were 200 of us!" Shen Tao was reluctant to admit defeat.

"Since the monster horde has ended, the crisis in this foggy land has been solved. I guess we should leave after clearing the remaining monsters, shouldn't we?" Li Jia lifted his head to look at Tan Lang. "The resources here are limited after all, and so is our time in the Fallen God Land."

"What do you guys think?" Tan Lang did not voice his opinion right away. Instead, he threw the question at them.

"Indeed, it's unnecessary for us to stay," Tang Ning agreed. "We've been staying in this foggy land for more than half a month. To be exact, it's the 47th day since we've entered the Fallen God Land. We're only left with less than half of the three months limit. There are still many things to be discovered in the Fallen God Land, so there's no need for us to waste our time here."

The rest nodded in assent. Lin Huang was the only one who showed no response.

"Lin Xie, do you disagree with this?" Tan Lang noticed his lack of reaction and could not help but ask.

"I would like to stay for a couple of days to get more crystal cores." Lin Huang made up an excuse. "After all, such an item that can restore Life Power instantly is rare outside."

The rest were rather surprised by Lin Huang's idea. All of them wanted to leave, but he was the only one who chose to stay. That would mean he would have to be separated from the group and go solo.

Li Jia gazed deeply into Lin Huang's eyes and looked down at the teacup on the table before him. Nobody could tell what he was thinking about.

Shen Tao was stunned for a second and objected immediately, "Lin Xie, there's no more monster horde, so you wouldn't get that many crystal cores even if you stayed to hunt. Why don't you leave with us? Our efficiency would be higher if we hunted together as a team."

Tan Lang turned silent for a moment and he seemed to recall something. He did not support what Shen Tao said. "You can stay if you really want to. This foggy area's much safer than it is out there. You could always join us out there when you get bored here."

"Thanks." Lin Huang nodded while wearing a smile.

As the Heaven Alliance was discussing their plan, the other organizations were discussing a similar topic.

Most of the organizations had obtained the resources from the government residences. The sects had presented themselves. With Dynasty's failed attempt as a warning, the underground organizations knew they could not use violence to steal.

The monster horde had ended. Apart from clearing the remaining monsters and redeeming the points for resources, it would be a waste a time for them to stay.

All the organizations were beginning to discuss leaving.

When night came, one of the inns in Weiyang City became crowded all of a sudden.

The inn had been fully booked by the people from the Union Government for the past week and no outsiders had been allowed in.

The army from the Union Government sat together in the hall of the inn.

The young man with the buzzcut, Fei Yun, shared the result of his investigation he had been working on for the entire day, "I've checked out the organization that beat us. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the work of the heretics."

"There are two firearms masters among the heretics who came in this time, and they are a pair of female twins. There's also an Element Master who has frost and fire attributes among them. Of all underground organizations, only the heretics match the battle traces left in the underground perfectly."

"I told you it was the heretics!" Feng Yong wore a proud expression, bragging that he managed to get it right.

"Damn it, heretics! How dare you beat us?!" Fu Qingwei slammed the table while looking pissed. Instantly, the wooden table turned into dust.

"Boss, should we teach them a lesson?" Fei Yun asked eagerly.

"Of course! Otherwise, they would think it's okay for them to take from the Union Government!" Fu Qingwei answered affirmatively without hesitation, but soon she calmed down. "However, wait, it's not time yet."

"Everyone's been exhausted for the past two days. Let's rest for two days and clear the monsters outside the city."

"The monster horde crisis has been solved now. Most of the organizations must be preparing to leave this foggy land, including the heretics. We'll just have to stop the heretics before they leave. Await the enemy on our own terms."

"Fei Yun, you must take note of the heretics' movement from now on. Inform me immediately as soon as there're any updates."

The heretics that were tens of thousands of kilometers away had no idea that they were taking the fall for Lin Huang for nothing.

Just because they had two firearms masters and an Element Master who possessed frost and fire attributes in their team, the Union Government targeted them and treated them as their implacable foe.

Meanwhile, the culprit, Lin Huang, who caused all these knew nothing about it.

Although Bloody's Leech Pods were monitoring the Union Government's movement, they dared not get too close.

In EA.2, Fu Qingwei and the Diviner named Cao Zhen could sense the existence of Leech Pods if they were close enough.

Bloody could only control the Leech Pods to monitor from hundreds of meters away. They could not hear what they were talking about behind closed doors in the inn.

Since he no longer had to guard the city walls, Lin Huang got the Herculean King, Bing Wang, Bloody Robe, and the Malachian Fiend to follow Tan Lang and the rest to clear the monsters.

On the other hand, he stayed at the inn to proceed with the simulated cultivation of local methods.

Time flew by and two days had passed. Tan Lang and the rest cleared all of the remaining monsters thousands of kilometers around Enlightenment City.

Apart from Lin Huang, everyone from the Heaven Alliance redeemed points using the monster carcasses and traded many resources.

Since it was unnecessary for them to stay, Tan Lang and the rest bade farewell to the people at the government residence. Apart from Lin Huang, everyone from the Heaven Alliance left on the third morning.

Lin Huang sent them off at the Dimensional Portal near the exit of the foggy land. Watching the portal close and the people disappear, he turned around and returned to his room at the inn.

Lin Huang could not get used to the empty inn since it had been crowded for the past half a month.

When he returned to the room, he had a slight change of expression all of a sudden. He released the three God Figurines' Combat Souls at the same time and shouted, "Who is that?!"

Lin Huang was sure that he had been pulled into the dreamland without even realizing it.

The reason he noticed that was because he realized Bloody was no longer in his sleeve.

He then recalled the unusualness downstairs earlier. Not only was there not a single guest at the inn, but even the owner and servants had also disappeared. The noise from the guests downstairs and the clamor of the servants was nowhere to be heard. The entire inn was so quiet that it was like a haunted house in a remote land.

Chapter 886: I'm Very Materialistic

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A white silhouette that looked like a ghost penetrated into the wall of the room in the inn.

The three God Figurines' Combat Souls surrounded the person before Lin Huang could take a better look.

"I come in peace, kid." A man with white hair and a beard wearing a white robe stood by the wall and expressed his intention immediately.

"Are you Gong Sun?" The stone tablet in his body spoke via voice transmission just when Lin Huang managed to catch a view of the person's face. It told him that the old man before him was the other True God's will, the old man Gong Sun that the Nightmare Dragon had mentioned.

"Seems like you've learned about me from that inferior dragon." The white-bearded old man nodded while wearing a grin.

"Why did you pull me into this dreamland?" Lin Huang asked while getting the three Combat Souls to retreat some distance away although they did let their guard down.

"Because this is the only way I could talk to you." Gong Sun forced a smile while shrugging helplessly.

"After I died from fighting that inferior dragon, it did not die right away. It then used its broken fragment of its kingdom to build this world. Later on, it came up with a series of plans in an attempt to resurrect one day.

"I, on the other hand, was only left with a gush of will. When it was building this world, I slipped into the only fragment of its kingdom that it was left with when it had its guard down. An accident happened whereby I merged with the fragment of its kingdom and became a part of this world. I can't be seen by anyone, and neither can I communicate with others.

"However, the merge gave me a part of the inferior dragon's ability. So I thought of using the dreamland to communicate with others because I can only be heard and seen in the dreamland."

Gong Sun's explanation made Lin Huang let his guard down a little, but there was a suspicion that rose suddenly.

"Why did you only look for me now? It has been three days since the Nightmare Dragon's the remnant of the will vanished. Why didn't you appear right away? Why did you choose to show yourself today, when all of my comrades have left?"

"There are two reasons. The first reason is although I can neither be seen nor can I communicate, my presence can be sensed by Divine Telekinesis within a close distance. Someone among your comrades has the same Divine Telekinesis as you do. His is even more powerful than yours. I didn't want to cause any complications, so I chose to meet you after he left."

"The reason why I didn't meet you right away was that I wasn't ready yet. I watched you fighting with the remnant of the inferior dragon's will, including the battle in the dreamland. I saw everything through a unique sensing technique.

"To be honest, it's a surprise that you won. I thought you'd definitely die when it dragged you into the dreamland. I was in disbelief when you killed it. To be precise, I was in shock and felt lost.

"Destroying the remnant of the inferior dragon's will was the mission I gave myself. It was the meaning of my existence. You killing the remnant of the inferior dragon's will meant that you accomplished my mission, which made me lose my purpose.

"Whilst my head was in chaos, you left right after you were done excavating the volcano, so I lost my chance."

"Who were you referring to that has the same Divine Telekinesis as I do?" Lin Huang could not help but ask what mattered to him the most after listening to Gong Sun.

"It's the guy who looks like a kid, the one who controls bugs."

"Li Jia?! That fella sure hid it well…" Lin Huang's pupils shrunk slightly. He doubted Li Jia might know about the things that he had done secretly, including hunting Charm and Dynasty.

"Kid, I've been thinking how to thank you for the past few days, but I've no idea what should I do until today." Noticing that Lin Huang was silent, Gong Sun could not help but speak again, "Since we've met today, maybe you could tell me what would you like directly."

"Then, I won't hold back." Hearing that, Lin Huang snapped back to his senses immediately. The gloom that he had been feeling was washed away.

"If you have God Figurines, you could give me a few. If you don't, you could give me some god items relics. If there're none, I'll take demigod relics too."

"So, materials are the only reward you need?" Gong Sun was stunned to hear his demands.

"Yes, I'm very materialistic," Lin Huang admitted solemnly.

"When the inferior dragon was killed, its the remnant of the will was in hibernation for quite some time. I secretly got the people whom the inferior dragon reified to investigate the outside world for a while. At that time, the main objective was to find out about the situation outside the kingdom. Some of them who survived the trip brought some treasures back."

"I remember there's a God Figurine." Gong Sun frowned slightly as he thought for a while. "There should be a few god relics too."

"That's great!" Lin Huang's eyes lit up when he heard this. He dared not ask for much. After all, he was an African Chieftain whereby he always had bad luck regardless of what game he played.

Gong Sun extended his hand into the air and a chilly blue sculpture appeared in his hand a moment later. The sculpture resembled half of a human lady's body that was frozen.

"This Mysterious Frostwoman had powerful abilities when she was still alive. Even I had to avoid her when I encountered her on the battlefield." Gong Sun handed the God Figurine in his hand over.

"Mysterious Frostwoman…" Lin Huang accepted it immediately and realized instantly that he was in a dreamland. "Do you have the real item?"

"Don't worry. I'll send the items that you've picked to you later. Although I have no solid form, it doesn't affect me from claiming items," explained Gong Sun as he smiled.

"Great, then." Lin Huang was relieved.

Gong Sun took out a couple of items later on, all of which were all god relics.

There were a total of seven items. However, there was no sword or armor.

"Don't you have a sword or armor? A telekinesis weapon would be fine too," Lin Huang asked while raising a brow.

"No, these are the only ones that are in one piece." Gong Sun shook his head.

"They don't suit me." Lin Huang forced a wry smile while shaking his head.

"Just take them. You can trade them with swords and armor that you desire when you get out." Gong Sun shoved all of the items to Lin Huang.

"Alright, then." Lin Huang took the god relics. There was even a true god-level saber among them.

"Do you want demigod relics?" Gong Sun asked.

Lin Huang flushed and shook his head. "There's no need. I have demigod sword relics." Lin Huang was a little embarrassed that Gong Sun was being so generous.

"Is there anything else that you need?"

Lin Huang thought to himself and decided to ask shamelessly, "Method recordings, especially in sword skills, would be great."

"Although I'm not a sword cultivator, I had a good friend who was a powerful sword cultivator. His sword skills ranked the top three during our time. I've fought him countless times to elevate his sword skill and I've also examined his sword skill recordings before. He's been dead for a long time now. It'd be good if you could inherit his skills.

"Apart from him, I've also encountered some other powerful sword cultivators. I remember some of the sword skills, so I'll record whatever I have in my memory." Whether it was due to his easy-going character or if it had just been a long time since he chatted with anyone, Gong Sun was rather talkative.

He prattled non-stop with Lin Huang after settling the material rewards with him.

Through him, Lin Huang learned many secrets of this world. The world had been built by the Nightmare Dragon's broken fragment of its kingdom before it died.

The Nightmare Dragon used the energy from god items and relics that it gathered to create the monster horde. The reason being, it wanted to accumulate a massive amount of living things and sacrifice those souls in order to resurrect itself.

The remnant of its will was in hibernation most of the time and the key to activate it was the appearance of living things that possessed Holy Power. Not matter demigod or Virtual God, it would be time to sacrifice as soon as such a level of living thing was born in the kingdom.

The remnant of the Nightmare Dragon's will would wake up to activate the formation it had set when it was still alive to drive the monster horde. The purpose of the monster horde was not to kill humans on land but to boost the number of living things for the soul sacrifice.

In reality, before Lin Huang and the rest discovered this foggy land, such a sacrifice had been activated a couple of times but Gong Sun would always put it to a halt.

Gong Sun led humans generation after generation with the dreamland, getting them to fight the monster horde in order to destroy the Nightmare Dragon's soul sacrifice.

Sometimes, he would even strain its will to stop the monster horde.

After a couple of attempts, he did something on the Immortal Path directly to get it done once and for all. He made ascendance-level the highest combat strength all living things in the kingdom could have. It put the possibility of people elevating to human immortal to an end. Naturally, there would not be any demigods since then.

However, he could not bring himself to kill those tens and thousands of human immortal-level powerhouses. Although they lived, there was no way for them to elevate to Virtual God or demigod.

He even restricted the combat strength of outsiders to below human immortal-level just in case but never had he thought that the Seventh Prince would have such a demigod-level defense technique.

When the demigod energy was released, he used thunder to destroy the energy, but the remnant of the Nightmare Dragon's will was activated anyway.

Gong Sun gave a detailed explanation about the saying that Lin Huang had been wondering about. "A strike of thunder heralds the arrival of disaster. The forming of a phenomenon, a chaotic tribulation".

Strike of thunder inferred to Gong Sun killing those powerhouses who were elevating to Earth immortal with thunder to prevent the remnant of the Nightmare Dragon's will from being activated.

The forming of a phenomenon would refer to the remnant of the Nightmare Dragon's will adjusting the monster horde formation every time it woke up. Such an adjustment would affect the fragment of its kingdom, causing unique dreamland or reification.

It was night time when Lin Huang left the dreamland.

Gong Sun was gone. The Mysterious Frostwoman's God Figurine was placed on the table before him. There were also the seven god relics and a couple of jade slips.

After putting the God Figurine and god relics away, Lin Huang looked through the jade slips. He recalled something all of a sudden after putting them away for a while.

"I forgot to get Gong Sun to handle the monster carcasses for me directly… Old man Gong Sun, are you still around?"

Chapter 887: 70 Million Glory Points!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Huang was not as thrilled as he imagined he would be when he got the fifth God Figurine.

He found out many secrets chatting with Gong Sun. Not only about this foggy land, but the era in which Gong Sun lived in.

Although he cultivated methods that were similar to the Twisted Fate Scripture, Gong Sun was born in an era even earlier than Mr. Fu's.

According to Gong Sun, there were 13 True Gods in the entire world at that time, including up to 1,000 Virtual Gods and tens of thousands of demigod-level powerhouses.

It was an era that was many folds more powerful than the tribe but had been destroyed by the world connected to the Abyss Brink.

Gong Sun's story made Lin Huang's skin prickle with danger even more now.

Lin Huang then told Gong Sun about the Abyss Brink and the old man looked helpless when he heard about it.

However, his battle had come to an end. All he could do was to utter comforting words to Lin Huang.

Lin Huang only realized there were more than just sword skills in the jade slips that Gong Sun had left behind. There were three types of complete true god inheritances and over ten virtual god inheritances.

He did not sleep well after chatting with Gong Sun.

After breakfast the next morning, he left Enlightenment City as he bade farewell to the people at the government residence.

As he left the city, he changed his appearance using his disguise skill and changed his combat strength to immortal-level rank-9 before heading to the Luotian Sect.

He had over four million monster carcasses that he had yet to redeem Glory Points for before leaving this foggy land.

Although he had already obtained the biggest reward, those monster carcasses were still worth redeeming no matter how little the rewards were.

Moreover, he would redeem quite a huge amount of Glory Points from them.

Lin Huang got Bloody to do the calculation. He could redeem at least 70 million Glory Points from the four million monster carcasses. Although he would only attain six-star Glory, he could enjoy a 60% discount which was exceptional. According to the buying power of the Glory Points, he could redeem 20 to 30 god relics.

Lin Huang arrived at the entrance to the Luotian Sect's door before 9 a.m.

After the monster horde broke out, almost all the sects chose to open their doors and accept the redemption of monster carcasses and crystal cores.

Lin Huang walked into the door proudly before someone led him to the registration counter.

The elder who was sitting at the counter was a plump, middle-aged man. He had a rather high combat strength of advanced-stage ascendance-level which was on par with high immortal-level.

The plump elder seemed a little impatient as he lifted his head to glare at Lin Huang. "Fill up the form for the monster carcasses that you have and the level of the internal elixir."

"Oh." Lin Huang nodded then picked up a form and filled it up on his own.

Bloody had categorized the monster carcasses into different combat strengths while Lin Huang studied the storage rings one after another. He saw the number with a glance using his Divine Telekinesis. It only took him less than a second.

After filling up the form, Lin Huang passed it to the elder who was stunned when he first saw it. Subsequently, he was enraged.

"Brat, are you here to prank me?! 820,000 intermediate-stage mortal transformation-level monster carcasses, 860,000 advanced-stage mortal transformation-levels, 810,000 beginner-stage ascendance-levels… Why don't you just fill in 8 million or 80 million?!"

"If I do that, wouldn't the number not add up?" Lin Huang stared at him like the form was nothing out of the norm.

"Do you mean that the number will add up when you fill in 800,000?" The plump elder still thought that Lin Huang was pranking him.

"Wouldn't you find out if you start counting?" Lin Huang took out six storage rings at once. "I've categorized them into intermediate-stage mortal transformation-level, advanced-stage mortal transformation-level, beginner-stage ascendance-level, intermediate-stage ascendance-level, advanced-stage ascendance-level, and peak-stage ascendance-level."

"Ha, you even put them into six storage rings!" The elder raised his brow as he looked cynically at him. "Sure, let me count them."

The plump elder smirked after taking the storage rings. "Brat, let me warn you. You'll have to pay the price if you make me a fool. If the number of monster carcasses doesn't add up to the number you've filled today, I'll confiscate the storage rings one by one. If the numbers in all the six storage rings don't add up, all of them will belong to me. You won't be getting any Glory Points today!"

"What if they add up?" Lin Huang did not panic and grinned instead.

"If they add up…" The elder had no idea what to say next.

"I won't trouble you. I only have one request if the numbers add up." Lin Huang looked at the plump elder while wearing a smirk.

"Do tell."

"You won't tell anyone about me redeeming the points, including everyone in your sect. I don't care if you lie or whatever else, but you must keep it a secret for me." Lin Huang looked grave when he named his request.

He did not expect the elder to really keep his secret despite his request. All he hoped for was the elder to let the cat out of the bag and spread the news as late as possible.

After all, there were still organizations staying in the foggy land. Lin Huang hoped that the news would only come after all the organizations that came from outside left the area. If that was the case, the news would stay in the Fallen God Land and would not spread to the outside world.

If the news came out too early and the organizations outside heard about it, the news would almost definitely go to the Union Government, which would definitely link the news with the God Figurine being taken away. As a result, they would most probably send people to investigate.

The Diviner from the Union Government could not find Lin Huang because old man Gong Sun had helped him secretly. However, without old man Gong Sun's interference out there, the Diviner might have a way to find Lin Huang.

Lin Huang was not sure if his disguise worked on the Diviner, so he chose to be extra careful.

He had thought of killing the plump elder so the secret would die with him. However, the elder was not in rivalry with him after all, and killing ruthlessly was not his style.

Moreover, Lin Huang had no idea what kind of surveillance the sect might use whereby his tricks might draw the attention of the imperial-level experts. By then, more people would know about him redeeming points with an insane number of monster carcasses.

It would be ridiculous to put the sect to an end just to cover things up. Only a heartless underground organization would do such a thing.

As Lin Huang had tens of ideas flashing in his head, the plump elder agreed to his request without thinking much.

"Sure, I'll keep it a secret." He used two fingers to pick the first storage ring up as soon as he was done speaking. He glanced at Lin Huang while grinning. "I shall see exactly how many monster carcasses there are in this ring of yours."

The elder had a slight change of expression when he looked through the storage space. The number of monster carcasses went beyond his imagination before he could even begin counting.

The number came to his mind instantly as he scanned through the mountains of monster carcasses.

"825,179 intermediate-stage mortal transformation-level monster carcasses…" The plump elder turned to gape at the form Lin Huang filled out as he snapped back to his senses. The number on the form was 825,179 too, which was exactly what he counted.

The elder lifted his head and stared at Lin Huang in doubt before proceeding to access the second storage ring.

"851,723 advanced-stage mortal transformation-levels…" The plump elder referred to the form. The number on the form correlated to it.

The plump elder's face was a little pale now as he proceeded to check the third storage ring.

Cold sweat started dripping from his forehead when he was done comparing the number he had gotten from the third ring with the one on the form. By now, he believed that the young man before him was a god.

To him, such a massacre of demons could not have been done by a human.

As he panicked, he counted the remaining three rings and began calculating the Glory Points.

"825,179 intermediate-stage mortal transformation-level monster carcasses… 1,650,358 Glory Points."

"861,123 advanced-stage mortal transformation-level monster carcasses… 3,406,892 Glory Points."

"416,378 peak-stage ascendance-level monster carcasses… 33,310,240 Glory Points."

"The total would be 72,538,610 Glory Points!"

The plump elder transferred all the six rings containing the monster carcasses into the warehouse ring while his fingers trembled frantically. He then returned the six storage rings to Lin Huang as well as the credited crystal card.

Lin Huang looked into the crystal card with his Divine Telekinesis and saw the number of Glory Points in the crystal card clearly.

"Where do I redeem items with these points?"

"You redeem them from me too." The plump elder's attitude was clearly nicer now. "Everything about Glory Points is my responsibility." He handed the treasure list over to Lin Huang as soon as he was done speaking. It was a thick book with at least hundreds of pages.

"The types of items are indexed. The front is items of lower grade while those with a higher grade will be at the back."

Lin Huang nodded and browsed through the index instantly.

He did not see any God Figurines after the first round of search. He then looked at the sword relics whereby the highest one was only a demigod relic. He then looked for armor but the highest one was still a demigod relic…

"Is everything on the list?" Lin Huang asked.

"Yes," the plump elder confirmed.

Lin Huang looked through the list again to see if there were any god relics or god items, but his search was to no avail.

"I thought there are Earth immortal-level treasures? Why don't I see any?" Lin Huang asked again.

"From what I remember, there are six earth immortal-level treasures and one celestial immortal-level treasure. If there are none on the list, it would mean that somebody has redeemed them. This list links automatically with the record we have in the warehouse. The item will vanish from the list as soon as it is taken out of the warehouse."

"Six earth immortal-level treasures and one celestial immortal-level treasure…" Lin Huang immediately realized what had happened. The seven god items Gong Sun had given him came from this warehouse.

Despite feeling helpless, Lin Huang could only accept the truth.

He redeemed over 1,000 sword skills that he chose from the list. Apart from two that were mythical-level, the rest were legendary-level.

Although there was no Virtual God that appeared in this world, there were tens of talented geniuses who created mythical-level methods as a few eras had passed. However, some of them lost the inheritance.

Apart from those, Lin Huang redeemed over 3,000 cultivation methods, 11 of which could be cultivated to virtual god-level.

He then swept over 300 demigod relics in the warehouse. Among them were three telekinesis weapons, 11 battle swords and 23 armors. They were all suitable for him.

Eventually, he redeemed the remaining points for a total of over 20,000 human immortal-level monster crystal cores.

Lin Huang did not feel any pain spending all of his Glory Points at once. He even indulged in the joy shopping brought him. Redeeming items with Glory Points was like purchasing stuff with cash vouchers.

After putting all of the items he had redeemed away in his Emperor's Heart Ring, Lin Huang did not bother keeping the Glory Point crystal card, so he returned it to the plump elder directly.

"Don't forget your promise," Lin Huang emphasized again when he returned the crystal card.

"Don't worry. I, Zhao Linde, have always been a man of my word. I'll definitely keep my promise!" The plump elder pounded his chest as he spoke. "If not for my sound reputation, the seniors wouldn't have given all of the responsibilities regarding Glory Points to me."

"But it won't mean nobody will find out about this even if I don't breathe a word. You've redeemed too many treasures this time. The sects will find out sooner or later. They have their ways of finding out about anything," reminded the plump elder again.

"Just drag it out for me as much as you can. The longer it is, the better," Lin Huang responded.

"I can definitely do that!" The elder promised right away.

Chapter 888: Returning to the Fallen God Land

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After spending all his Glory Points, Lin Huang was not going to stay at the foggy world any longer despite the fact that it was a blessing to him.

Getting out from the Luotian Sect, Lin Huang then entered a forest. After making sure that there was no detection skill around him, he transformed back into Lin Xie.

He then took out his dimensional relic and stepped into it.

The coordinates he had pinned on the dimensional relic was the entrance to the foggy world.

As soon as Lin Huang stepped out of the dimensional relic, he felt that something was odd before he could even recall his dimensional relic.

People dressed in the Union Government's military uniform were blocking the entrance.

Lin Huang was shocked. "Has my identity been revealed?"

Just as he wondered whether if he should brave it through the crowd, a lady in a cloak questioned, "Are you Lin Xie from the Heaven Alliance?"

"Yes, I am." Lin Huang was forced to answer her question.

"Don't worry. We're here to stop the heretics." Fu Qingwei and the EA.2 members were unable to join the Genius Union because of the Union Government. However, as an intelligence agency, they had detailed information about strong individuals in the Genius Union. Of course, there was no exception for Lin Huang who was the new talent that ranked first on the leaderboard of the Stairway Tree.

"To stop the heretics?" Lin Huang was stunned. Although he felt that it was strange, he did not ask any further. Instead, he felt relieved.

"The rest of the members from other organizations are allowed to enter." Fu Qingwei did not intend to explain any further either. Instead, she told Lin Huang that he could leave and that he did not need to concern himself about them.

Lin Huang nodded before recalling his dimensional relic and slowly flying towards the exit without anyone getting in his way.

Seeing that Lin Huang had disappeared, Cao Zhen who was in his white robe frowned.

"The guy named Lin Xie isn't as simple as we think." An augur's instinct was said to be exceptionally accurate.

"Of course, he isn't. He's just a holy fire-level but he's managed to rank first on the leaderboard of the Genius Union's Stairway Tree." Fu Qingwei smiled, nodding her head. "His training speed far surpasses that of an ordinary person's."

"Even if he's a genius, he's still much weaker than Zang Yi," remarked Feng Yong who was short yet muscular as he was quite bitter.

Fu Qingwei's facial expression changed and she immediately glared at Feng Yong with a fierce whisper, "Don't simply talk about Zang Yi!"

The EA.2 members immediately kept quiet.

Of course, Lin Huang did not know that the EA.2 members were discussing him in the foggy world.

Getting out of the foggy world, he returned to the Fallen God Land again.

The Leech Pods which Bloody had left there were soon activated.

About ten minutes later, Lin Huang then received the updated map of the organization and the distribution of monsters.

Seeing Bloody's result of the distribution, Lin Huang was startled. "Is this the right one? Why have the number of monsters increased compared to 20 days ago?"

"Yes, the number of monsters have increased," Blood confirmed, "There seems to be a unique rule being imposed on the ruins whereby the undying species and the spirit types can be constantly summoned."

It came to this conclusion because part of its Leech Pods had parasitized in the monsters' bodies. The monsters being parasitized had witnessed the changes and their memories were stored. Right after the Leech Pods were activated, the stored memories would be transferred to Bloody's knowledge base.

Lin Huang frowned. "It's actually a good thing to us. We have more monsters to hunt now."

"However, based on the map, aside from a few of the unknown regions, it seems like most of the places have been explored." Lin Huang studied the map carefully again. He could not find a suitable location to go monster hunting.

After exploring for tens of days, the union and the underworld began to unite their members. They no longer fought solo. The organizations divided the Fallen God Land into small segments like a whole cake.

"There are fewer people in the forest situated in the northeast. The level of the monsters over there isn't high and it's only occupied by a few of the smaller organizations. However, although there are fewer people over there, they are scattered all over the place. We can easily bump into humans when we hunt." Bloody did not have any good suggestions. "Other than that, we have control of the central region which is the largest area. There are many monsters over there, but it's occupied by three big organizations."

"If we can't find a place to hunt for monsters, let's go for those that are occupied." Lin Huang was much more confident now after fighting the Nightmare Dragon's will. "Let's see if there's any region being occupied by the underworld."

"That's great," Bloody sighed in relief.

Previously, Lin Huang did not want to have any conflict with humans. However, since 50 days had passed, the humans seemed to have scattered all around the Fallen God Land. He was unable to look for a suitable place to hunt for monsters where he would not bump into humans.

Bloody soon circled 12 regions and he numbered them accordingly.

"12 of these places are being occupied by the underworld and there's no union around them. I've numbered them from the weakest to the strongest.

"Region No. 1 has the weakest overall ability whereby the strongest monster is on crimson gold-rank and there are only three of them. It's been taken over by the Purple Crow, Saint, and Charm. There are seven of them on black gold-rank and tens of them are on immortal-level. The strongest member is on yellow gold-rank.

"Region No. 12 has the strongest overall ability. It's occupied by Dynasty, the Purple Crow, Saint, and the heretics. The four strongest people are on white gold-rank and there're a total of 13 imperial-level. None of them is on immortal-level. The strongest monster is on purple gold-rank and there are only three of them."

"Let's start from region No. 1 then." When it came to fighting the underworld, Lin Huang would not hold back his ability.

He summoned Thunder which went all out and arrived at region No. 1 in less than an hour.

After recalling Thunder, Lin Huang summoned the three pseudo-mythical-levels, Lancelot, the Regal Sword Killer, and the Evil Dominator. He summoned the two knights, the two Dark Crescent Snakes, and Kylie as well.

After the large-scale slaughter in the foggy world, the combat strength of Kylie's Nephilic Judges had leveled up to immortal-level rank-9. However, only a few of them had gone through their third mutation. Despite the fact that many of the monsters from the foggy world exhibited dark attributes, only a few of them had completed their third mutation. Regardless of how many mutated or double mutated monsters were killed, the Nephilic Judges were unable to upgrade to Nephilic Angels. Over the past 20 days, there was only a subtle increase in the number of Nephilic Angels.

When they returned to the Fallen God Land, it was a great opportunity for an upgrade.

Be it Kylie's Nephilic Judges or Lancelot and the rest, they were capable of fighting a crimson gold-rank. This was also the reason why Lin Huang had summoned them this round to hunt for monsters.

"Let's kill all the immortal-levels as soon as possible. There are many of them. If we were to fight the crimson gold-levels, they'll probably inform the rest if they discover there's a fight going on. After killing all the immortal-levels, we'll have to kill the black gold-ranks followed by the crimson gold-ranks." Lin Huang soon distributed the tasks to each of them.

Guided by Bloody, Kylie and the rest soon left and went after their hunting targets.

In less than 15 minutes, Kylie and the rest had secretly killed the first batch of monsters. Those who were on immortal-level rank-9 were unable to fight Kylie's Nephilic Judges, Lancelot and the rest at all.

Before they could inform anybody, they were all murdered.

The imperial monsters soon targeted the second batch of monsters after being guided by Bloody.

Only one out of seven of the black gold-ranks was not killed and managed to inform the others about the battle.

Despite having caught the attention of the three crimson gold-ranks, the outcome of the battle was a foregone conclusion.

Bloody suddenly changed his mind, making the black gold-rank the bait. He managed to bait the three crimson gold-ranks. Kylie and the rest then besieged them.

Three waves of battle ended within an hour.

Region No. 1 had officially become Lin Huang's territory.

Chapter 889: Singing in the Victory

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Singing in the Victory

After taking over region No. 1, Lin Huang summoned Bai and the rest.

All the immortal-level rank-9 and imperial-level monsters at the region were involved.

Lin Huang initially intended to insert the God Figurine into his body as he wanted to visualize the True Spirit Encyclopedia to train his combat soul.

After he thought about it carefully, he knew that he had to stay at the Fallen God Land for more than a month. If he could not level up to immortal-level rank-4, the combat strength of Bai and the rest would remain at immortal-level rank-9.

The combat strength of Bloody's Parasitic Puppet would be restricted as well. The highest level of combat strength they could achieve would only be crimson gold-rank. They had to sell the yellow gold-rank monsters that had been killed.

As for the combat strength of Kylie's Nephilic Judges, they would all be stuck at immortal-level rank-9 as well.

The same thing would happen to Lancelot's sword servants as well.

Despite his careful consideration, he decided to level up to immortal-level rank-4. The Fallen God Land would be opened for three months. Although it was a little too soon to upgrade one rank higher in three months, it was still possible.

After he made up his mind, he then inserted the Nightmare Dragon's God Figurine into his fourth Life Wheel. His combat strength immediately upgraded to immortal-level rank-4.

As soon as he got to mid-level immortal-level, the combat strength of Bai and the rest had automatically leveled up to the first rank of an imperial-level – black gold-rank.

Guided by the inherited memory, in addition to Bloody's suggestion, the Life Palace of Bai and the rest could soon be formed.

Lin Huang did not slack at all. Since he already owned the fourth combat soul, he decided to hide in Kylie's mini world. He then crushed an Epiphany Card and entered a state of visualization.

Eleven days later, the combat soul of the Nightmare Tapir was formed. Its appearance looked like a saber-toothed tiger. However, it had an elephant's trunk. Its body was surrounded by revolving white clouds.

The combat strength of the combat soul was slightly weaker compared to the other three as it was currently on black gold-rank. Lin Huang was not in a hurry. He knew that as Bai and the rest hunt for monsters, spiritual energy would be inserted into his body. It was just a matter of time for the upgrade in the combat soul's combat strength to happen.

As he got out of Kylie's mini world, it was already late at night on day 11.

After communicating with Bloody, Lin Huang then knew that Bai and the rest were guided by Bloody and were now hunting in region No. 4.

The ability of Bloody's army grew again. The number of black gold-rank Parasitic Puppets and crimson gold-rank Parasitic Puppets had increased to 188 and 73 respectively. As for the yellow gold-rank Parasitic Puppets, there were already 10 of them. Although they were still insufficient to kill the white gold-rank monsters, it would not be difficult for them to defeat an ordinary white gold-rank.

As for Kylie's side, almost a third of the Nephilic Judges had leveled up to black gold-rank. The number of triple mutated Nephilic Angels had exceeded 260. About 100 of them had not evolved.

Lancelot had an additional sword servant as well. He had 18 slots in total for sword servants and there were two more remaining. Among the 16 sword servants, half of them had leveled up to black gold-rank.

The Evil Dominator had three additional yellow gold-rank Golden Cicada Substitutes. Bloody gave it a chance to kill since he could obtain a human substitute just by performing a kill. Bloody could still make use of the dead bodies to create Parasitic Puppets.

Bloody had arranged everything in good order and it was unaffected by Lin Huang.

"Are there any humans or monsters that majored in sword?" Lin Huang asked.

"Among the humans, there are 13 immortal-levels who majored in sword and there are two imperial-levels."

"As for the monsters, there are eight immortal-levels. There's one imperial-level that's on yellow gold-rank. It has very strong abilities. The Regal Sword Killer, Lancelot, and the Evil Dominator had to team up to be able to kill it."

"I noticed that if the Regal Sword Killer happens to kill any monsters or humans that majored in swords, it can completely duplicate its opponent's inheritance and merge the capabilities with its Sword Dao," Bloody shared what it accidentally discovered.

"If that's the case, I won't use the Golden Cicada Substitutes that often. Let it duplicate the inheritance." Lin Huang was stunned when he heard that. Soon, he smiled and nodded his head in understanding.

Although the use of Golden Cicada Substitutes allowed him to obtain the inheritance of a sword major that was killed, not using the Golden Cicada Substitutes would not have much of an impact on him.

Bloody then quickly duplicated the Sword Dao inheritance and sent it to Lin Huang.

Two days had passed. Bai and the rest had almost cleared everything in region No. 4.

Early in the morning on day 14, Lin Huang and his imperial monsters rushed towards region No. 5.

By now, three days had passed. All the immortal-level rank-9 and imperial-level monsters in region No. 5 had been wiped out.

The imperial monsters then headed towards region No. 6.

Lin Huang had been practicing the skills he used in the foggy world every day. There had been a substantial increase in his familiarity with the Twisted Fate Scripture.

Besides that, there was an upgrade in the Nightmare Tapir's combat soul in Lin Huang's body as well. As Bai and the rest had been hunting for several days, the combat strength of the Nightmare Tapir's combat soul had advanced to crimson gold-rank.

Aside from that, Bloody and Kylie's troops grew stronger each day.

As for Bloody's side, the number of imperial-level Parasitic Puppets had been constantly increasing. After getting to black gold-rank, Bloody did not have much faith in the immortal-level Parasitic Puppets.

The combat strength of Kylie's Nephilic Judges was improving each day. Nephilic Judges upgraded to Nephilic Angels each day.

Just as they were singing in victory, what they did managed to attracte the underworld's attention.

"Who's messing with us?! We've lost six imperial-levels and two yellow gold-ranks in half a month! Including three of them who died previously, there are only three of us who are alive!" Lei Jie, who clad in his black coat, was infuriated.

As the leader of the Purple Crow, in order to obtain more resources, he had divided nine of the members into three teams, so there were three members in each team. Other than his team, the members from the other two teams had all died.

The Purple Crow had invested a lot to train each of their core members. The Purple Crow would definitely not be able to accept losing nine core members in one single mission.

As the team leader, Lei Jie would be severely punished after they had completed the mission. Despite the fact that he was very powerful and was on purple gold-rank, he would not be forgiven.

"According to the information I have, they're not coming after us. Dynasty, Saint, Charm, and the heretics were attacked as well. All the teams were killed. Six out of 12 of the regions taken by the underworld had been attacked. None of us managed to survive it," Zheng Nan shared the information he had.

"Do you mean that someone's trying to fight all the underworld organizations?!" Lei Jie found it unbelievable.

"You can say so." Zheng Nan nodded his head.

"It sounds like the people from the Union Government and the Hunter Association are trying to kill us with the ruins." Lei Jie narrowed his eyes.

"Regardless of who's the culprit and which organization they're from, they're really strong. They're at least on white gold-rank and there must be more than one person.

"Regardless of how strong they are, their abilities are only on par with mine. No demigods are allowed to enter the ruins," Lei Jie scoffed. "Do you know where are they going to attack next?"

"I've come up with the order in which they'll launch an attack. They fight according to their overall abilities and will fight from the weakest to the strongest. It shouldn't be difficult to identify the next region that they're going to attack," Zheng Nan said without any facial expression.

"Old Lei, I suggest not stopping them alone." Right this moment, the one-eyed man said, "If there are two or more purple gold-ranks, we'll die."

"That's what I was thinking too." Zheng Nan nodded and agreed with him. "If we were to stop them, we better team up with Dynasty and Saint. Since they're also suffering great losses, I guess they won't turn us down."

"Alright, you shall make the arrangements for that." Lei Jie kept quiet for a while and agreed. "Tell them not to bring their yellow gold-ranks along. It'd be best if there are three or more purple gold-ranks."

Chapter 890: The Third Solution

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On the 17th day after Lin Huang had returned to the Fallen God Land, Bloody along with Bai and the rest had already cleared region No. 6.

There were more than 200 black gold-rank Parasitic Puppets in Bloody's troop and the number of crimson gold-rank Parasitic Puppets had increased to 82. It had 15 yellow gold-rank Parasitic Puppets as well.

As for Kylie's side, about half of the Nephilic Judges had leveled up to black gold-rank. The number of triple mutated Nephilic Angels had exceeded 280 as well. They were now getting closer and closer to their target.

Lancelot got an additional sword servant and out of the 18 sword servant slots, there was only one last slot remaining.

The Evil Dominator obtained two yellow gold-rank Golden Cicada Substitutes while Killer inherited two Sword Dao skills.

Although it seemed like there were no changes in Lin Huang's body, the Nightmare Tapir's combat soul in his body was becoming stronger each day. Despite being yet to level up to yellow gold-rank, it was improving. His training in the Twisted Fate Scripture remained at the fifth rotation. As for the 16 million points that he required, he had accumulated more than half of them.

The Fallen God Land seemed peaceful. In fact, there were many things going on.

In the afternoon of day 18, Bloody that was controlling its army of parasites suddenly whispered, "The four organizations, Dynasty, the Purple Crow, Saint, and Charm have done something. It seems like they're heading to our next destination – region No. 7."

"It seems like they've discovered our route. They're here to stop us." Lin Huang did not feel surprised. He knew that they would definitely fight back since he was seizing their territory. "How many of them are there? What's their combat strength?"

"There are only 13 of them. There are four purple gold-ranks and nine white gold-ranks," Bloody told him what he could monitor from afar, "We're incapable of fighting them. We've got two solutions.

"The first one is to clear all the monsters in this region and immediately leave. Look for a place to hide. Dynasty and the rest won't know who attacked them. It's less likely that they'll suspect us.

"The second solution is to skip region No. 7 and go straight to region No. 8. If they happen to come after us, we can escape to region No. 9. We can hunt while we escape all the way till region No. 12, but we have to quickly kill the monsters there. It's rather beneficial for us to do so, but at the same time, it's much riskier."

"I'd suggest a third solution then." Lin Huang grinned after listening to what it said. "After clearing region No. 6, we go straight to region No. 7. After killing those who block us, we can attack all the 12 regions without any obstacles.

"There are four purple gold-ranks and nine white gold-ranks. Are you sure you're able to handle them?" Bloody had never seen Lin Huang's combat souls launch an attack as the God Figurines were only summoned in the dream thus far.

"Yes, I'm sure. Don't worry." Lin Huang patted Bloody's head.

Bloody dodged away from Lin Huang's palm, raising its head and asking Lin Huang with a serious expression, "I'd like to know the probability of winning the fight."

"100%," said Lin Huang as he grinned widely.

"Alright, let's follow your solution then." Bloody then felt relieved.

It took them another two days to completely clear region No. 6. Lin Huang then recalled Bai and the rest, keeping only Bloody with him. He rested for the whole night and after taking his breakfast, he summoned Thunder and headed towards region No. 7.

Lin Huang arrived at region No. 7 on the 21st day before 9 a.m.

At region No. 7, the six imperial-levels who were responsible for looking after the region had left. Only 13 of them were there to stop them.

Lin Huang did not try to hide anything and soon, he drew their attention.

From the monitoring screen, a young man who was about 20 years old descended from the sky riding on a beast. After recalling the beast, he gradually walked towards them, shocking them.

"There's only one person?!"

"It seems like he knows that we're here to stop him. He came right to us."

Through the monitoring screen, they were unable to sense the strength of Lin Huang's aura. They could vaguely feel that their target was not as weak as they thought.

"Have you seen this person before? Why do I feel that he looks somewhat familiar?" Huang Tianqi from Dynasty was staring at the young man in the screen and he frowned.

"I find him familiar too." Lei Jie actually found that he seemed to know this man. However, he could not recall where he had seen him before.

"If I'm not mistaken, he looks like Lin Xie from the Heaven Alliance…" said Zheng Nan who was from the Purple Crow, but he was unsure.

The Genius Union was really a very powerful organization. However, regardless of how strong it was, it would only accept holy fire-levels and immortal-levels. All the members who had achieved imperial-level would automatically leave the Genius Union.

Compared to organizations like the Union Government and Dynasty, the Genius Union was more like a school. Regardless of how excellent a person was in school, not many of the outsiders would know about this, just like how an imperial-level would not pay much attention to who the strongest among the immortal-levels was. They might have seen it on the news but could not really remember who he was.

"Are you sure he's the one?" Lei Jie's facial expression was strange after listening to Zheng Nan's speculation. "I remember that I saw Lin Xie only being on holy fire-level a few months ago."

An old man with a white bear who was in a Saint's robe said confidently, "He's Lin Xie. His combat strength is already on immortal-level rank-3."

His name was Xie Pengshan. He was the leader of the Saints. Being on purple gold-rank, his combat strength was on par with Lei Jie and Huang Tianqi's.

"Lin Xie is the Saint's hunting target. That's why we paid close attention to him," Du Long who had a scar on his face explained as he stood behind the old man with the white beard.

"So, do you mean that this immortal-level rank-3 has killed all the members at the six footholds? There are hundreds of immortal-level rank-9s and more than 20 imperial-levels. There are five yellow gold-ranks as well!" The leader of Charm, Yu Hong finally exclaimed in disbelief.

Everybody remained silent after listening to what he said.

It was impossible for the young man to do so. Even if it was Chan Dou who was one of the Five Princes and Huang Wuji who were now on immortal-level rank-9, they would be incapable of killing a yellow gold-rank. They could only fight them face-to-face, let alone an immortal-level rank-3.

It would be useless even if they had a God Crasher. An immortal-level rank-3 would be unable to capture the movement of a yellow gold-rank. It was impossible for a God Crasher to hit a yellow gold-rank.

"Could he be here purely by accident?" Zheng Nan asked, carefully looking at the rest of them.

"I don't think so. He's not trying to kill any monsters and he came straight to us." Lei Jie shook his head.

"Since that's not possible, there's only one remaining possibility." The killing intent from Huang Tianqi suddenly grew. "He's the one who attacked the foothold!"

Chapter 891: I Have Assistants!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Huang flew to the coordinates Bloody gave him easily. He landed slowly when he saw a building that looked an ancient castle.

There was no such complete building left in the Fallen God Land at all. The ancient castle was just a structural-type relic.

Most structural-type relics of such a big scale were expensive. Relics of the same quality were just slightly cheaper than a battleship, but its price-performance ratio was lower than a battleship.

A battleship was an attack weapon that was similar to a God Crasher. Furthermore, it was mobile. However, apart from having a higher defense compared to a battleship, such a structural-type relic only had the upper hand of being much smaller than a battleship.

However, compared to a battleship, such a structural-type relic could not contain large-scale weapons or travel. Its practicality was much lower.

In reality, structural-type relics were not entirely redundant. Some of them were more practical.

The most practical one would be a battle fortress which was also popular. Such a relic could contain a massive amount of large-scale weapons. Furthermore, it was a mobile relic in the form of a fortress. On a certain level, its practicality was even higher than a battleship in wars. However, its cost was over ten times more expensive than a battleship of the same level. It was rare with less than ten of them in the entire world that people knew of. It was even lesser in quantity than god relics.

Naturally, there were still people who would purchase such structural-type relics as it was great for showing off.

As soon as it was activated in the wild, everyone would know that you were rich.

Just like the ancient castle before Lin Huang's eyes, it would be in high demand at an auction. It could be easily sold at the price of a demigod relic.

To be honest, most people could not afford it. Even demigods would not spend money on such a thing.

It was completely useless to Lin Huang who was all about practicality. He would rather dig a cave in the mountain wall.

However, his mood boosted when he saw this relic.

The reason being he was sure of one thing — the people who were coming to stop him were pretty rich!

Lin Huang took a careful look at the entire ancient castle as he landed slowly.

The ancient castle occupied over 300,000 square meters on the ground. The main building was five floors tall while the walls were 12 meters tall. The round sentinel tower was almost 40 meters tall.

Although he could not see what was happening inside the ancient castle, Lin Huang was very sure that the people there were watching him.

Indeed, through the window in the ancient castle, Huang Tianqi and the rest were observing Lin Huang who came alone.

"His combat strength's only immortal-level rank-4…" The 13 of them sensed Lin Huang's combat strength clearly and doubt rose in them at the same time.

An immortal-level rank-4 person had killed imperial-level yellow gold-ranks?

"Whether it was him who killed the people or not, there's no reason for us not to meet him since he came here on his own." Huang Tianqi grinned. He was the first who got up and leaped out as soon as he opened the window.

The other three imperial-level white gold-rank Dynasty members caught up with him without hesitation.

The four of them landed on the wall at the entrance of the ancient castle with one of them standing in front.

Lin Huang lifted his head and looked above the entrance. He glanced at the three imperial-level white gold-rank members behind Huang Tianqi and eventually fixed his eyes on Huang Tianqi.

'People from Dynasty?' Lin Huang identified the few people right away. Only people from Dynasty would dress in that poop-yellow color on the streets.

Huang Tianqi, who was dressed in golden armor, stood on the wall looking down at Lin Huang who was beneath. He released his imperial-level purple gold-rank aura without holding back towards where Lin Huang was.

The three imperial-level white gold-rank members behind him staggered back immediately and leaped to the top of the main building. They were afraid of being impacted by the terrifying aura.

Naturally, Lin Huang, at whom the aura was aiming, sensed Huang Tianqi's show of power. However, an imperial-level's aura was just child's play to him since he could withstand the petrifying aura coming from a god like the Nightmare Dragon's carcass.

Huang Tianqi's suppressing aura was considered powerful among the imperial-level purple gold-ranks. Lin Huang felt it like it was a gentle, soothing breeze coming at him.

Huang Tianqi had been observing Lin Huang's change of expression. However, apart from his clothes fluttering slightly, what he expected to happen never did.

He thought Lin Huang would kneel onto the ground and would not be able to get up from his terrifying aura.

Under normal circumstances, an ordinary immortal-level rank-4 cultivator would definitely kneel down as soon as he encountered an imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouse's aura. He might not be able to stand up from such powerful aura.

However, Lin Huang who possessed Holy Power was clearly an exception. The probability of him kneeling was slim even if he were to encounter a virtual-level powerhouse's aura.

Huang Tianqi's trick was completely useless on him.

The remaining people in the ancient castle had a slight change of expression when they witnessed that.

Huang Tianqi had already released all of his aura. Even the couple of imperial-level white gold-rank members in the ancient castle were rather suffocated while three imperial-level purple gold-rank members looked grave. However, Lin Huang who was at the center of suppression seemed like nothing was happening to him.

"Now, I'm beginning to believe it was him who destroyed our six footholds." Lei Jie from the Purple Crow had his guard up a little as he looked at Lin Huang.

"Something's definitely up with this fella." Xie Pengshan from Saint stared deadly at Lin Huang while narrowing his eyes.

Although Yu Hong from Charm said nothing, he was gripping a short dagger in his left hand. It was clear that he was ready to attack anytime now.

Lin Huang's current level of ease was completely impossible for an immortal-level rank-4. In reality, it was impossible for anyone on immortal-level to feel as comfortable as him. It was impossible for even supreme geniuses such as Chan Dou and the Five Princes to be at ease facing Huang Tianqi's powerful aura. One must know that Chan Dou and Huang Wuji had combat strengths of immortal-level rank-9 while Lin Huang was only on immortal-level rank-4.

"Hahaha… Lin Xie from the Heaven Alliance, it seems like everyone in the world underestimated you." Huang Tianqi's intent to kill rippled rapidly all over his body.

"I'm flattered," Lin Huang replied calmly with a smile. His tone was light and there was no pressure on him at all. "I wonder which Duke of Dynasty are you?"

"Huang Tianqi!" Huang Tianqi announced his name.

"Oh, so you're Duke Qi," Lin Huang raised his brow when he heard the announcement.

He had heard some names of the imperial-levels from Chan Dou before entering the Fallen God Land. Huang Tianqi had a combat strength of imperial-level purple gold-rank, and his ability could easily rank the top three among the over 300 imperial-level powerhouses who entered the Fallen God Land this time.

"Lin Xie, since you've heard of my name, let's not beat around the bush." Huang Tianqi recalled his terrifying aura and stared deadly at Lin Huang. "What's your intention coming here this time?"

"Duke Qi, why are you asking this when you already know what my intention is?" Lin Huang could not help but laugh when he heard the question.

"Was it you who killed the people in the six footholds?!" Huang Tianqi's eyes turned icy gradually. He had an affirmative answer to the question despite asking it out loud.

"I guess," Lin Huang did not deny it but he added instead, "Although I didn't do it myself."

Lin Huang's straightforwardness caught them by surprise, but Huang Tianqi and the rest were stunned when they heard what he said later.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean I have assistants." Lin Huang smirked while the four God Figurines' Combat Souls' silhouettes appeared out of thin air.

Yu Hong from Charm revealed himself almost at the same time. His severed arm holding the short dagger fell to the ground less than three meters behind Lin Huang. He staggered tens of feet away from Lin Huang rapidly, staring fearfully at the little white cat that landed on Lin Huang's shoulder.

Chapter 892: I Killed All of Them

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at the severed arm that was tumbling onto the ground, Huang Tianqi and the rest gaped in shock at the little white cat on Lin Huang's shoulder as their pupils shrunk.

The single blow alone chopped off Yu Hong's arm. It proved that the little feline that seemed harmless had the ability of at least an imperial-level purple gold-rank or even higher.

Besides the nine imperial-level white gold-rank people, even Huang Tianqi and the other three imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses had fear in their eyes when they stared at the little white cat.

Apart from Lin Huang, each and every one of them was a top powerhouse in the underground organizations. They were familiar with Yu Hong from Charm. Appearing only 25 or 26, he was an androgynous young man who ranked No. 10 as a supreme assassin among the imperial-level powerhouses in the entire continent. Even demigod-level powerhouses could only make it to the top 15 in the Assassin Leaderboard.

Even the other three imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses present dared not say they would survive his assassination.

However, such a top world-ranking assassin not only failed to attack the little white cat, but his arm was also severed.

Furthermore, Huang Tianqi and the rest did not see the white cat attacking.

Its stealth technique seemed to be more terrifying than Yu Hong who was an assassin. Moreover, its attack speed seemed to be even faster than his.

What bothered Huang Tianqi and the rest even more were the other three little monsters that were similar to the white cat.

There was a little sapling, a little elephant, and a little leopard with a long snout. They looked like baby monsters that had yet to mature.

The white cat performed an ability that almost overcame Yu Hong. How about the rest of the little monsters?

"You're such a hot-head. I told you that I have assistants, but you came at me anyway." Lin Huang turned to tsk at Yu Hong as a smile remained on his face.

He had actually summoned the four God Figurines' Combat Souls when he recalled Thunder but the Ninetails Lynx hid them in the alternate dimension.

Nobody could sense them in the alternate dimension, but they could see what happened in the main dimension. That was why the Ninetails Lynx had come out of the alternate dimension the moment Yu Hong performed the sneak attack, resulting in his severed arm.

Yu Hong sensed the intent to kill that came out of nowhere, so he recalled his attack and retreated immediately. His response saved his life, but it was a little too late. His arm had been chopped off by the Ninetails Lynx's sharp claws.

"If I'm not mistaken, you must be a Nightingale from Charm, aren't you?" Lin Huang continued in his chatty tone, "I wonder how should I address you?"

Nightingale was the title given to Charm's imperial-level powerhouses. They were actually similar to the Hunter Association's elder.

"Yu Hong," Yu Hong said his name coldly. His severed arm was healing at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. He was eager to buy himself more time.

"Yu Hong… That name sounds rather familiar." Lin Huang picked up the severed arm as he spoke. He took the short dagger from the severed limb and put it away into his storage space. He then simply tossed the arm to the ground.

He did that smoothly before Yu Hong. There was no shame in his action at all.

Yu Hong was so pissed that his face turned livid.

The dagger that Lin Huang had taken as his reward was an expert-grade demigod relic that Yu Hong had just bid for at a high price not long ago. It was also one of the two most expensive pieces of equipment that he had with him. It had become Lin Huang's just like that as if he deserved it.

"I can't recall where I've seen this name before. Never mind, I won't dwell on it." Lin Huang had no intention to humiliate Yu Hong. The Emperor's Heart Ring that he was using came from an underground organization. He would look at the underground organization's leaderboards when he was bored. The Assassin Leaderboard was one of them. However, he would usually only remember the top three names on all the leaderboards while the names after that would just seem familiar to him.

Yu Hong's name fell into the latter category. He thought it was familiar, but he could not really pin down which leaderboard on which he saw that name and which ranking he was on.

Moreover, some of the organization members that entered the Fallen God Land this time, including Charm, were not very open to the public. Chan Dou had no idea who Charm had sent, so he only mentioned them when he spoke to Lin Huang. He had no idea that Yu Hong was a top world-ranking assassin at all.

However, whatever Lin Huang said was treated as an intentional humiliation to him. He was so mad that he was going to explode.

"Yu Hong, I can't believe you're being underestimated!" Another two silhouettes joined the fray as a voice was heard.

The person who spoke had a Purple Crow trench coat on him. His body was heavy-built and he carried a gigantic blade that was over two meters long on his back. The blade was slightly taller than he was.

The other person wore the Saint's white robes. He looked old with a long, white beard that reached his chest, and the way in which he looked at Lin Huang was rather demented.

"If I'm not mistaken, the both of you should be Lei Jie of Purple Crow and Saint's second messenger Xie Pengshan," Lin Huang identified the duo immediately.

The gigantic blade on Lei Jie's back and Xie Pengshan's white beard were their distinctive features. Moreover, Chan Dou had shown Lin Huang both of their pictures when he briefed him.

Yu Hong looked even more terrible now that Lin Huang had identified the duo.

Huang Tianqi and the rest were thinking to themselves, 'This fella must be doing this on purpose.'

"Lin Xie, since you recognized me, there's a suggestion that I'd like you to hear," said Xie Pengshan who was in white robes while wearing a smile.

"Do tell," Lin Huang said while raising his brow with a smile.

"There are four of us on imperial-level purple gold-rank. The rest of us can fight you as long as we constrain your four summoning beasts for a moment. I admit that you have a stunning talent as an Imperial Censor, but no matter how powerful you are, you shouldn't have the ability of an imperial-level white gold-rank. Hence, it's impossible for you to win this battle.

"How about this? We'll forget about everything you've done in the past as long as you agree to join the Saint. We can communicate with the other three organizations for you and give the respective compensation to put the rivalry to an end. Apart from that, we'll also make you our First Holy Son of Division 3 and cultivate you with all our might."

Huang Tianqi and the rest were dumbstruck by Xie Pengshan's suggestion out of nowhere.

They were about to fight but he was recruiting openly now?

Xie Pengshan's action made Huang Tianqi and the rest fell into deep thoughts.

Lin Xie's overall ability was indeed stunning. Bringing him back would be much better than killing him directly. He was only on immortal-level rank-4, but his summoning beasts were already so powerful. Would that not mean he would be invincible when he reached imperial-level?! Such a genius might be even more powerful than the Five Princes such as Chan Dou if anyone were to cultivate him…

Lin Huang finally spoke just when Huang Tianqi and the rest were considering if they should change their strategy.

"Firstly, I'd like to correct you. These four little things aren't summoning beasts. They're my Combat Souls." Lin Huang knew why Xie Pengshan would think that his Combat Souls were summoning beasts. The reason being that it was impossible for ordinary people to have Combat Souls that were more powerful than the person himself.

Huang Tianqi and the rest were stunned to hear that while they stared at the four little monsters with their eyes wide open.

The three imperial-level yellow gold-rank and one imperial-level crimson gold-rank monsters were all Combat Souls?! Are you not only on immortal-level rank-4?!

"Secondly, I'm afraid the Saints won't be able to put the conflict I have with Dynasty and Charm to an end." Everyone could not help but listen attentively when he said that.

Was there some deadly grudge?!

Were his parents killed by people from Dynasty and Charm?

Or was it his siblings?

Or was it his girlfriend that he had known since he was a child?

"I bumped into Dynasty's Seventh Prince and Charm's entire squad when I was in the foggy world." Lin Huang smirked slightly. "I killed all of them."

Chapter 893: Even the Imperial-level Purple Gold-rank Surrendered

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

To Dynasty, every Prince was the top Duke candidates. As soon as they elevated to imperial-level purple gold-rank, they would be the top powerhouse among imperial-level powerhouses and become the person who held the most power in the entire Dynasty.

Huang Tianqi, for one, was elevated from a Prince. Apart from a few demigods, his ability ranked No. 2 in Dynasty's Division 3 branch.

The death of a Prince would be treated as a serious event the same level of the death of an imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouse.

Not only did that mean Dynasty had lost a potential top imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouse, but it was also a humiliation to them too.

Whoever killed Dynasty's Prince would mean that he created a rivalry with the entire Dynasty. Even if it was a demigod-level powerhouse who did it, Dynasty would come after him with no mercy.

Throughout the hundreds of years, Bai Qi from the Union Government was the only person who had killed a Dynasty's Prince and managed to live peacefully.

It was not that Dynasty did not attack Bai Qi, but two demigods had died while three demigods were severely wounded as a result of the two fights. They had to give up eventually.

Lin Huang killing Dynasty's Seventh Prince would mean that he had planted an irreversible, deadly rivalry with Dynasty.

Such a grudge could not be solved by compensation. To Dynasty, repaying with blood was the only solution.

Xie Pengshan of Saint forced a smile helplessly while shaking his head upon hearing Lin Huang's situation.

The conflict he had with Dynasty alone made him give up recruiting Lin Huang entirely because taking him in would mean declaring war with Dynasty.

Although Saint was also a top underground organization, it was slightly behind Dynasty. It was not worth declaring war with Dynasty just for a Holy Son.

Killing the entire Charm's immortal-level squad would mean making enemies with Charm too.

Taking Lin Huang in would get himself into a rivalry with two major organizations, and Xie Pengshan knew how much of a loss that would be.

One must know that Charm's Division 3 branch had sent a third of their immortal-level geniuses for the search in the Fallen God Land this time.

The entire squad dying in Lin Huang's hands was equivalent to a third of Charm's future pillar of support being killed in the cradle. Such animosity was nothing less than Dynasty having their Prince killed.

Yu Hong's intent to kill was rising rapidly as he looked at Lin Huang. He was not mad about Charm's loss. He was mad because his daughter was Charm's immortal-level squad leader this time.

More than 20 days ago, he found out that his daughter had been killed in the foggy world. He had been depressed for the past few days because he had no idea who the murderer was and unable to avenge her.

Never had he thought that the murderer would appear before him right now and admit his own doing.

Yu Hong had not said anything no matter how Lin Huang had humiliated him earlier. Now that he found out that Lin Huang was the one who killed his daughter, he could no longer hold his fury back and shouted out loudly, "Lin Xie, you killed my daughter. I'll kill you today!"

"Your daughter?" Lin Huang was stunned to hear that. He then recalled the day when he had annihilated Charm's squad. The lady said her father was an imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouse who was also in the Fallen God Land and would definitely avenge her. Never had he thought he would really bump into the lady's father that day.

"Are you talking about the leading lady? She did say that her dad is an imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouse."

Yu Hong stared deadly at Lin Huang. What he had just said confirmed the fact that Lin Huang truly did annihilate the entire Charm's squad. If looks could kill, he would have murdered Lin Huang tens of millions of times by now.

Meanwhile, the rest who were listening to their conversation that involved the grudge had different expressions of their own.

Xie Pengshan noticed that Huang Tianqi was looking at him. He knew it was time for him to speak now. "Since there's such a conflict, we the Saints organization, will not interfere. We'll give up recruiting Lin Xie." The four underground organizations stood on the same side once again as soon as the Saint made that statement.

The rest of them gave up on the thought of recruiting completely.

The Purple Crow and Saint were mainly fearful of Dynasty and had no intention to be rivals with Dynasty.

Charm, on the other hand, held a grudge with Lin Huang. As the leader, Yu Hong treated Lin Huang as his eternal foe, so it was impossible for Charm to recruit him at all.

Meanwhile, for Dynasty, no matter how powerful Lin Huang's talent was, the rules were the rules. One would have to pay the price with their life if they killed a Holy Son, so it was impossible to recruit the murderer into the organization. If such a thing happened, there would be many geniuses who would come after Dynasty's Princes just because they had stunning talent and potential.

If that happened, would there be any dignity left for Dynasty?

Since the four major underground organizations had shown where they stood, the situation was self-explanatory.

Noticing that Yu Hong's arm had yet to recover, Huang Tianqi did not plan to wait any further. He began to move after speaking to everyone though voice transmission.

The four imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses moved quickly, going after the four God Figurines' Combat Souls each.

Huang Tianqi went after the Ninetails Lynx that attacked earlier while the Purple Crow's Lei Jie and Saint's Xie Pengshan went after the Destructive Divine Mammoth and the Divine Sun Tree respectively. Meanwhile, Yu Hong, who had yet to recover, charged at the Nightmare Tapir that had the lowest combat strength.

Whether they were hiding or not, the remaining imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses stared at Lin Huang.

They were waiting to attack once the four Combat Souls scattered.

However, the Nightmare Tapir which body was only around two meters long lifted its long snout and trumpeted out of nowhere.

A circle of invisible sound wave rippled like waves. Its speed was hundreds of times faster than the regular speed of sound. It rippled through everyone instantly.

Huang Tianqi and the other three imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses stopped moving while the other nine imperial-level white gold-ranks fell from the sky to the ground directly. Nobody knew if any of them survived the impact.

Disdain flashed through the Ninetails Lynx's eyes. Just when it was ready to seize the opportunity to kill them, Lin Huang spoke through voice transmission, "Don't kill them. The Evil Dominator won't get the substitutes if you kill them. Just drain their Life Power."

The Ninetails Lynx was a little reluctant but obeyed anyway. Its body turned into a white ray of light as it dashed forward. In the next second, Huang Tianqi and the other three of them had their limbs severed. They turned into stick figures with no limbs.

In intense pain, Huang Tianqi and the other three finally came out of the dreamland the Nightmare Tapir had created.

The four of them noticed what happened to their bodies as soon as they woke up, and they looked around frantically.

Although they would not be considered as having lost all of their battle techniques without their limbs, they still lost most of their abilities. All they could do was to use their Life Power to recover as fast as they could.

Soon, they noticed the imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses who had fallen to the ground. They had no idea if they were still alive or not. They then looked at Lin Huang and the little monsters in fear.

The four Combat Souls were amazingly powerful!

In reality, Lancelot and the rest that were on pseudo-mythical-level could fight imperial-level yellow gold-rank powerhouses with their imperial-level black gold-rank combat strength. According to Lin Huang's speculation, a real mythical-level Monster Card would have an ability that surpassed pseudo-mythical-level on which Lancelot and the rest were by heaps. It should not be difficult for imperial-level black gold-ranks to fight imperial-level purple gold-ranks.

Lin Huang's four Combat Souls were at least on par with supreme god-level Monster Cards at the moment. It would be nothing for imperial-level black gold-ranks to defeat imperial-level purple gold-ranks, let alone if their combat strength that was on imperial-level crimson gold-rank and imperial-level yellow gold-rank.

Even though Huang Tianqi and the rest were the best of the best among all the imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses, they were still a distance away from the Ninetails Lynx which ability was close to demigod-level.

Lin Huang thought the one-sided battle was expected.

One must know that Ninetails Lynx and the rest could kill imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses like they were cutting vegetables in dreamland.

Lin Huang was not fond of playing around with his opponents. However, both imperial-level purple gold-rank and imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses surpassed Bloody's Leech Pods' abilities.

Making them the Evil Dominator's substitutes by draining their Life Power would be the optimum choice of seizing the resources.

He had even thought of the way to handle the bodies.

Each and every one of them here was worth an extremely high reward at the Union Government whereby they could be sold at a price ten or even hundreds of times higher than monster carcasses of the same combat strength. Combined, their bodies should be able to redeem a god relic.

It was none of Lin Huang's business what the Union Government would do with those bodies.

Chapter 894: That Doesn't Make Sense!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A few breaths had passed. Huang Tianqi and the other three had regenerated their severed limbs.

However, before they could do anything, a white ray of light flashed through the sky while blood sprayed everywhere.

Huang Tianqi and the rest felt agony coming from their limbs again. They turned to look and realized that the limbs that they had just regenerated were detached from their bodies again.

The four of them were dumbstruck.

How were they supposed to fight?!

The Ninetails Lynx's speed was incredibly fast. It was so fast that it surpassed their ability to capture its movement. Their limbs would be severed whenever they saw the white afterimage flashed by; there was no time for them to react at all.

"Don't panic. Summon the Combat Souls to block the attack when our limbs regenerate, then activate the Life Palace ability to show our trump cards right away," Huang Tianqi spoke to them through voice transmission, "Time's critical now. We'll really die here if we hide our abilities!"

Although they were unwilling to show their trump cards, Lei Jie and the other two agreed to Huang Tianqi's suggestion. They had no other choice anyway since they really might die if they did not fight with all their might.

A few breaths passed quickly, and their limbs regenerated once again.

Just when Ninetails Lynx was ready to attack, the four of them summoned all of their Combat Souls at the same time.

36 Combat Souls with the combat strength of imperial-level purple gold-rank appeared almost at the same time. The Combat Souls of different forms were just as majestic as the four of them.

At the same time, the four of them summoned their Life Palaces.

Four gigantic Life Palaces hovered above Huang Tianqi and the other three's heads, looking very spectacular.

"Wow, you guys are going all out!" Lin Huang smirked.

At that moment, the Divine Sun Tree extended tens of its branches like spiritual serpents that came alive. Its attack was terrifyingly quick. It was almost on par with the Ninetails Lynx.

Before Huang Tianqi and the other three managed to react, they watched their Combat Souls being pierced through their bodies by branches. They looked like Szechuan skewers.

The pierced Combat Souls were like balloons that were poked, deflating rapidly and becoming nutrient for the Divine Sun Tree.

Adult Divine Sun Trees could even swallow stars and black holes, so a baby Divine Sun Tree was not to be underestimated at all.

The Combat Souls were like a refreshing drink in the summer. It drank them all after a few sips with a straw.

Have you tried putting 36 straws into 36 bottles of chilled Coke and drank them at the same time during a hot summer?

It was amazing!

The 36 Combat Souls were all killed in less than a second after they revealed themselves.

Huang Tianqi and the other three were stunned just looking at them.

All of the Combat Souls had been killed before they could grow their palms and feet!

Could they not hold on for two more seconds?!

Oh no, there was no way they should hold it back any longer! They had to go all out!

Huang Tianqi signaled the rest and he began to activate his Life Palace's ability. He dared not delay the process until his limbs were done regenerating.

However, disdain flashed through the Destructive Divine Mammoth's eyes. It lifted one of its massive front feet and stomped in the air.

Bang!

An unusual explosion that sounded like a muffled thunder erupted. In the next second, a circle of invisible energy wave spread out. It rippled through the Life Palaces above Huang Tianqi and the rest's heads.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The four explosions came almost at the same time. Huang Tianqi and the other three spat blood out and they looked above their heads in terror.

The four Life Palaces were directly blasted and skyscrapers and collapsed rapidly. They then disintegrated completely and turned into broken pieces. They were left with a bare palm-sized Life Base which turned into a ferocious gleam that withdrew back into their bodies immediately.

The four Life Palaces were pretty much completely destroyed. Although their Life Base was still there, it would take a long time to rebuild the Life Palace. It required a massive amount of energy too.

Their Life Palaces were destroyed before they managed to activate their Life Power abilities. The four of them felt so screwed at that moment.

They initially thought that the little white cat was the most powerful among Lin Huang's four Combat Souls. However, it seemed like the other three had almost the same standard as the cat.

The little white cat alone had fought four of them on its own without any pressure and Lin Xie had three more of such Combat Souls.

What was an immortal-level rank-4 doing with four such powerful Combat Souls?!

He only had immortal-level rank-4 combat strength, but his Combat Soul was on imperial-level yellow gold-rank. That did not make sense!

His Combat Soul only had imperial-level yellow gold-rank combat strength, but it could fight imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses. Moreover, it was one versus four. It simply did not make sense at all!

Where did he buy such a plug-in? I would love to have one too! Huang Tianqi and the other three wanted to cry.

"The attack the four of you attempted wasn't too shabby," Lin Huang commented while chuckling as though he was a kind mentor on a variety show, "Keep it up. I have faith in you guys."

"A gentleman would rather die than be humiliated!" Yu Hong flushed and shrieked, "Lin Xie, if you're a man…"

Shrrrrrr…

A shredding sound came when Yu Hong was halfway speaking. His limbs were severed again.

Huang Tianqi and the other two experienced the same thing too. Their limbs were chopped off from their bodies.

They did not notice that their palms and feet were regenerating at all.

The four of them were speechless as they watched their limbs falling onto the ground, having freshly regenerated from their bodies.

They were puzzled why Lin Huang did not just kill them since he totally had the ability to. Instead, he kept chopping off their limbs again and again.

Could this fella be a masochist?!

If chopping limbs off and making people into sticks was just an appetizer to him, what would he do to the rest of them after Huang Tianqi?

The four of them had goosebumps just thinking about that.

Naturally, Lin Huang had no idea what the four of them were thinking about. He extended four telekinetic threads and took the Emperor's Heart Rings from their severed arms before them. He then put the rings away into his storage space.

The four of them were enraged watching that, but they could do nothing to stop him. All they could do was stare at him fiercely.

Lin Huang peeped at the four of them and glanced away like he did not care. He then extended nine telekinetic threads to the nine imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses who fell onto the ground.

After taking the nine of their Emperor's Heart Rings away, Lin Huang browsed through their bodies and put the items away into his storage space.

Naturally, the nine imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses were still alive. It was not that the Nightmare Tapir could not kill them, but Lin Huang got it to spare their lives. After all, imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses were great substitutes for the Evil Dominator who was only on imperial-level black gold-rank.

The Nightmare Tapir created a massive amount of monster hordes in the dreamland while the nine of them fought the monsters over and over again. They had no idea that they had been dragged into the dreamland.

The Nightmare Tapir's dreamland ability was more powerful than the Nightmare Dragon's. In its dreamland, it was impossible for one to turn the table around just like Lin Huang had done to the Nightmare Dragon.

The draining of their Life Power was reflected perfectly in reality. The nine of them experienced a rapid drop in Life Power in their bodies.

"These nine imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses will drain their Life Power soon." Lin Huang nodded in satisfaction. He then looked at the four imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses' direction. "But looking at these few fellas' progress, it seems like it'll take a while to drain their Life Power…"

Chapter 895: Volleyball Game

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Huang Tianqi and the other three imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses used their Life Power mainly on the demigod armor relic's defense and the regeneration of their limbs.

Naturally, the defense of the demigod armor relic was difficult for the Ninetails Lynx to cut through. However, it sliced at the gap between the joints of the armor the first time. The surfaces that were out of the coverage of the armor depended on the defense layer that extended from the armor.

It would be very difficult for a person who had the same combat strength as Huang Tianqi and the rest to break through their defenses. However, such a defense layer was nothing too difficult for the Ninetails Lynx which had the ability to suppress them.

The four of them had their armors detached from their bodies for the first time after their limbs were severed. They were only left with the armor on their upper bodies and helmets. Their overall defenses dropped by more than 70% compared to the time they donned their full armor. Now, the difficulty for the Ninetails Lynx to severe them was much lower.

However, the draining of Life Power from the continuous regeneration of their limbs was still insignificant to Lin Huang.

"The regeneration of their limbs is too slow, causing their attack frequency to be low." Lin Huang had an idea all of a sudden after thinking to himself as he stared at the four of them.

He spoke to his four God Figurines' Combat Souls including the Ninetails Lynx while grinning.

For some reason, the Nightmare Tapir had sympathy in its eyes as it looked at the four of them after hearing Lin Huang's voice transmission.

This time, the Ninetails Lynx moved suddenly without waiting for the four of them to regenerate their limbs.

It turned into a white figure as it raced out while its white cat claw was imprinted brutally on the demigod armor relic that Huang Tianqi wore.

He felt an intense tremor that came from his chest. He had no idea how many bones were crushed while his heart almost burst. He could no longer control his body as he shot out like a cannonball.

Right at that moment, the shadow of a whip came from the air and struck hard on Huang Tianqi's back.

He spat a mouthful of blood out as a result of the attack and his flight route changed without resistance. He had no idea how wounded his back was at the moment.

Just when he was shot less than three seconds away, the Destructive Divine Mammoth whipped its trunk and smacked the side of Huang Tianqi's body hard.

He could clearly sense that his left waist had been crushed.

Before he could whine about his waist, his body was shot out once again.

A moment later, a cat claw came flying in the air again and imprinted on the right side of his body with a terrifying force.

His right waist was crushed at that moment.

Lei Jie and the other two were dumbstruck while watching the three bullies messing with him like he was a volleyball.

Huang Tianqi had no time to heal himself as the three Combat Souls were attacking him one after another. The Life Power in his body was absorbed insanely by the demigod armor relic almost every second to keep up with the defense.

Huang Tianqi knew very well that if not for the demigod armor relic that had absorbed most of the impact, he would have died many times by now.

However, Huang Tianqi only managed to hold on for less than three minutes as he faced the attacks coming from the Ninetails Lynx and the rest that were assaulting him almost without reserve. His Life Power was completely drained.

Since the demigod armor relic had no more Life Power to charge it, it retreated back into his body automatically.

Watching a whip shadow darting in the air at him, Huang Tianqi closed his eyes helplessly. He accepted his fate of death was the price of his defeat.

However, he felt a rope-like thing rolling around his waist and releasing him in the air.

When he opened his eyes, he was lying less than ten meters away from Lin Huang.

He also saw a long-snouted leopard on Lin Huang's right staring at him. It seemed to be waiting to see if he would have any more trump cards with him.

He forced a smile helplessly. There was no Life Power left in his body and he did not even have the energy to heal his organs, let alone regenerate his limbs to fight.

He laid on the ground like a piece of salted fish. He looked at the sky above him. Suddenly, he realized that it had been years since he had felt so relaxed like he was at that moment.

Lin Huang glanced at Huang Tianqi and spoke to the Nightmare Tapir through voice transmission.

The Nightmare Tapir gazed at Huang Tianqi, his pupils turning black all of a sudden. In the next heartbeat, Huang Tianqi fell into a deep slumber.

After handling Huang Tianqi, the Ninetails Lynx, the Destructive Divine Mammoth, and the Divine Sun Tree headed to Lei Jie and the other two.

They were in a frantic and their faces had turned pale. They knew what kind of torture they would be experiencing without even having to think about it.

The three out them shot out like cannonballs as they shrieked devastatingly. Meanwhile, the Ninetails Lynx and the other two monsters turned into three rays as they chased after them.

In less than five minutes, the three wounded, limbless human sticks were sent to Lin Huang. The demigod relics on their bodies were nowhere to be seen.

Lei Jie and Xie Pengshan had lost all of their hopes. Despair showed on their faces.

Yu Hong, on the other hand, was staring deadly at Lin Huang while rage was written all over his face. However, he could not speak due to his broken voice box.

Lin Huang put them into a line using telekinesis, devoid of any expression on his face. He then summoned the Evil Dominator and Killer.

"Apart from sword cultivators that belong to Killer, the rest will be yours, Evil Dominator."

Killer took a step forward without hesitation and chopped Lei Jie's head off.

The Evil Dominator was grinning as he did as Killer did, chopping the heads of Huang Tianqi and the other two off.

The demigod relics in the four's bodies came out automatically as soon as they were dead.

Lin Huang used telekinesis thread to pick up the four heads and demigod relics, then put them away in his storage space.

He turned and walked to the pile of severed limbs of Huang Tianqi and the rest. He used telekinesis thread to put the demigod armor relics' parts away.

After handling the four imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses, the nine imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses who were stuck in the dreamland should have their Life Power drained very soon.

Lin Huang and the monsters only waited for two to three minutes before the nine imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses' demigod relics withdrew back into their bodies.

The Evil Dominator attacked without thinking twice and killed seven of them in a row.

Killer swung his sword immediately and chopped off two sword cultivators' heads. He then walked to Lin Huang and shared the three sword cultivators' inheritance with him.

Lin Huang closed his eyes and then nodded to Killer slightly after digesting the inheritance.

As he recalled the four God Figurines' Combat Souls, Lin Huang used telekinesis thread to put the nine powerhouses' heads and the demigod relics that came out of them away.

After he was done with all that, Lin Huang browsed through the 13 headless bodies. He then summoned Lancelot, Kylie and the rest after making sure that he had not missed out any valuable items.

"We've taken down region No. 7. Let's proceed with the hunting." The 14 Monster Cards scattered as Lin Huang ordered, beginning a new round of hunting under Bloody's guidance.

Tens of thousands of kilometers away, the imperial-level powerhouses who were in charge of region No. 7 were waiting for good news from their organization's seniors anxiously. They were eager to return to region No. 7 to begin hunting again.

However, nobody heard any news after a day had passed.

On the second morning, someone from Dynasty finally could not take it any longer. He took the initiative to contact Huang Tianqi, but the communication device used by Dynasty's internal team could not be connected from morning until afternoon. The person began to realize that something was off.

The Saints began to suspect something was wrong too.

On the third day, the people from Dynasty and the Saints basically confirmed that Huang Tianqi, Xie Pengshan, and the other imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses were dead.

On the fourth morning, a Dynasty imperial-level yellow gold-rank who was an expert in stealth technique went to region No. 7 secretly. He wanted to know exactly what had happened. Soon, he saw the headless bodies scattered all over a battlefield that was turned into ruins. He did not dare to go any nearer, but he could identify who they were from the torn clothes on their bodies.

His scalp turned numb and he had weak knees when he saw the limbless bodies. He summoned a Dimensional Portal immediately and crawled into it.

What he had no idea about was that Lin Huang had brought his summoning beasts team to region No. 8 an hour before he came checking on the powerhouses.

The news of the underground organizations' four imperial-level purple gold-rank and nine imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses being killed spread through the entire Fallen God Land that very noon.

All the organizations that entered the Fallen God Land were shocked to hear the news!

Chapter 896: Killing Spree Mode

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the central region of the Fallen God Land, the Union Government, the Hunter Association and Adventurer Paradise had gathered their high management around.

The eight of them present were imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses.

There were four of them who were dressed in the Union Government's military uniform and donned military cloaks on their backs while the other four were dressed rather casually.

A hunk with messy hair and an unshaven mustache, carrying a big golden bow who was dressed in a military uniform asked, "Is the news confirmed? Are Huang Tianqi and the rest really dead?"

He was Tu Yu of the Hunter Association and the leader for the mission this time. He was also the top person below demigod level in the association. His ability easily ranked No. 1 among all of the imperial-level powerhouses who had entered the Fallen God Land this round. He was more powerful than the four imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses from the Union Government.

"We had our spies confirm that Huang Tianqi from Dynasty, Lei Jie from the Purple Crow, Xie Pengshan from the Saints and Yu Hong from Charm are all dead. Apart from the four of them, there were nine imperial-level white gold-rank bodies at the scene too," added Wei Xia who was dressed in military uniform in all seriousness.

"Old Wei, it really wasn't you guys who did it?" Leader Chang Ling from Adventurer Paradise could not help but ask.

"If we did it, do you think the four of us could stand here speaking to all of you unwounded?" Wei Xia frowned slightly.

"Huang Tianqi's ability was no lesser than mine. We might not even be able to kill him if the four of us imperial-level purple gold-rank powerhouses were to fight him together, let alone having Lei Jie and the other three fighting on Huang Tianqi's side.

"Moreover, the three organizations had nine imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouses with them. That's only one imperial-level white gold-rank powerhouse lesser than us. It would be a bloodbath even if we could defeat them. At least half of our team would be killed. It's impossible for us to kill them all."

"Huang Tianqi was really powerful. It would've been difficult even for me to kill him." Tu Yu nodded in agreement hearing that. "Judging by the team that they assembled, we might be able to kill them all if we combined three organizations together but it's difficult to defeat them without any injuries."

"There're no other bodies at the scene. Could the assailant put his comrades' bodies away?" Chang Ling asked again.

"That's possible." Wei Xie nodded. "But even if his comrades died, the team must have a terrifying overall ability to kill Huang Tianqi's team. We might all be killed if any of us were to encounter them."

"Did you investigate why did Huang Tianqi's team appear in that area?" Tu Yu asked again.

"According to insider news, throughout the 20 days or so, the regions terrorized by underground organizations had been attacked by an unknown organization. The unknown organization would kill all the underground organization's residents every region they attacked and they annihilated all the immortal-level rank-9 and imperial-level monsters."

"The Purple Crow estimated the unknown organization's route after confirming the news and invited Huang Tianqi and the rest to collaborate with them. Never did they think… that this would happen. Huang Tianqi and the rest were all killed by the bunch of fighters."

"Is the unknown organization attacking the 12 regions terrorized by the underground organization?" Tu Yu asked again.

"Yes," Wei Xia confirmed, "According to the news that we heard this morning, the unknown organization's already attacking region No. 8 yesterday. Looking at their hunting speed, they'll proceed to region No. 9, at the earliest, on the day after tomorrow."

"Judging from their progress, they'll need around 14 days to clear all 12 regions. It's 16 days to the day that the Fallen God Land's closes." Tu Yu frowned as he spoke to this point. "They might attack the region we are in for the remaining two days."

All of them turned pale when they heard that.

The overall ability of the three organizations including the Union Government, the Hunter Association and Adventurer Paradise was much more powerful than Dynasty and the other two underground organizations. However, none of them here dared to say they had the confidence to defeat the unknown organization that had killed Dynasty, the Saints and the rest.

"But there are regions that we occupy around the 12 regions which the underground organization have terrorized. They didn't attack the regions in which our people reside. Maybe they bear no ill intentions toward us?" Chang Ling could not help but voice his speculation.

"Until now, we have yet to identify who this unknown organization is, so we can't be reckless," Wei Xia agreed with Tu Yu's point that they must always have their guard up before identifying who the person was.

"Why not we send someone to try to talk to them?" As an adventurer, Chang Ling was always curious about the unknown.

Everyone rolled their eyes at him.

The death rate of the members in Adventurer Paradise had always been higher than most organizations. The reason being that they were always asking for death.

"Fine, we won't talk to them. Why are you guys staring at me like that?" Chang Ling mumbled softly with his head stooped down.

The people ignored his mumbling and proceeded to discuss the ways to tackle the potential crisis.

"To prevent unnecessary casualties of our members, I suggest that we bring some of our members back respectively, especially in those regions that are close to the underground organization's territory. We might as well just vacate the regions. We will then gather people with high combat strength to the central region to prevent the unknown organization from attacking," Tu Yu voiced his idea.

"I agree with Boss Tu's suggestion. Although we will lose part of our resources, keeping our members safe is our priority. Considering it as a whole, such a strategy could minimize our loss," Wei Xie stated his opinion.

The people looked at Chang Ling subsequently.

"Why are you guys looking at me? I didn't say that I object to the idea." Chang Ling had disdain written all over his face. Noticing that Tu Yu and Wei Xia were still staring at him, he nodded helplessly. "Fine, I agree."

"Old Zhang, please watch him. Don't let him do something stupid." Wei Xia glanced at Chang Ling and shifted his focus onto the old, plump man next to him.

The old man smirked. "I know that. Don't worry about it, Boss Wei."

"Old Zhang, you really are the spy from the Union Government targeting us Adventurer Paradise!" Chang Ling turned and glared at the old man madly.

"Heh!" Old Zhang responded to Chang Ling with his expressionless face.

Tens and thousands of kilometers away, Lin Huang found out about the gathering of high management from the union organizations, but he had no idea what they were talking about at all.

Throughout the next few days, the union organizations got their members who were close to region No. 8 to leave immediately, followed by region No. 9, region No. 10 all the way to region No.12.

From their reaction, Lin Huang guessed what the union organization's meeting was about roughly.

Their vacating the regions should be the result of their fear after Lin Huang defeated the underground organizations. The union organization was afraid that he might fight their members, so they chose to leave without being asked.

Naturally, Lin Huang was elated that his area of hunting was wider now.

Initially, he decided to hunt the 12 regions terrorized by underground organizations before the Fallen God Land closed. Hence, he had been holding his hunting speed back whereby he was in a relaxed mode.

However, now that the union organization had left him with more space, he would take them all for himself naturally.

Lin Huang got Bloody's parasitic army and the Warlord's mechanical army to join the battlefield. They boosted Bai and the rest's hunting rhythm and activated their killing spree mode.
