My All-Heavens Chat Group-Chapter 442 - 11: Tigers Always Walk Alone, It’s Cattle and Sheep That Herd Together_1
Slaying an Abyss Demon of the Divine Emperor Realm yielded one hundred million Beheading Demon Points.
The Nine Yao Heavenly Emperor obtained 1.3 billion Beheading Demon Points, signifying that he had slain thirteen Emperor Level members of the Abyssal Demon Clan. His terrifying strength was thus imaginable.
Next to the Beheading Demon List were five other rankings: the Emperor List, the Sovereign List, the King List, the Heaven List, and the Human List.
The Emperor List, as the name suggested, ranked all Emperor Level warriors (Divine Emperors, Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortals), with the Nine Yao Heavenly Emperor still topping the list.
In fact, the rankings at the top of the Beheading Demon List were almost identical to the Emperor List.
This was only to be expected. The Beheading Demon List was the overall ranking. However, the Beheading Demon Points obtained by Emperor level and King-level warriors were hardly comparable to those of Emperor Level warriors. Therefore, Emperor Level warriors occupied almost all the top positions on the Beheading Demon List.
The Sovereign List naturally ranked Emperor level warriors (Divine Emperors, Primordial Golden Immortals). Topping the list was the Nine-headed Primordial Emperor with 18 million Beheading Demon Points, which meant he had killed eighteen Emperor level warriors.
The King List, of course, naturally ranked King-level warriors (Divine Kings, Daluo Golden Immortals). Leading the list was Liuli Immortal King with 230,000 Beheading Demon Points, meaning he had slain twenty-three Daluo Golden Immortals.
The remaining Heaven List and Human List then ranked the Lord Gods (Taiyi Golden Immortals) and Heavenly Gods (Golden Immortals).
"My Lord, may I dominate the rankings?" Divine King Gouri looked eagerly at the Beheading Demon Stele and the names listed upon it, yearning for the exhilarating thrill of battle after so long.
"If you are capable, then why not dominate the list?" Hongmeng cracked a slight smile. With his current strength, there was no need to be overly cautious about some things, especially since this was a battlefield where the highest rank was Divine Emperor. Even extraordinary performance wouldn’t stir up too much trouble. At most, it would provoke a God Master Warrior. But God Master Warriors were not something he feared. Even Ancestral Gods were of no concern.
"Then if I manage to take the top spot, is there a reward?" Divine King Gouri’s enchanting eyes peered at Hongmeng, her voice melodious and seductive, enthralling.
"Of course. When the time comes, I will surely reward you well!" Hongmeng reached out and pinched her fair, delicate cheek, smiling as he said, "It’s the same for all of you. Those who perform exceptionally well will be richly rewarded!"
"Thank you, My Lord!" the Heroic Spirits responded in unison.
"Man, to think these Goddesses and Empresses are actually his subordinates! If only I had so many divine minions for myself, two per day, how blissful that would be!"
"Hey, wake up! What are you dreaming of in broad daylight?"
"Get lost! Can’t a man have dreams?"
Witnessing this scene, countless warriors around the Beheading Demon Stele were green with envy.
Of course, many also scoffed at the idea of Divine King Gouri and the others wanting to dominate the rankings. In their view, while these Goddesses and Empresses were indeed beautiful, as subordinates to Hongmeng, their combat prowess was bound to be mediocre. Hoping to monopolize the top spot was nothing short of a fantasy. Wasn’t the person at the top of each list an unparalleled genius?
Hongmeng paid no attention to the people around him. He led his subordinate Heroic Spirits, each to claim a Demon Order. The Demon Order, crafted by an Ancestor God-Level Warrior, could automatically record the slain Abyssal Demon Clan members and convert the kills into Beheading Demon Points. The most important use of Beheading Demon Points was not the ranking but rather to exchange them for various treasures. After all, to make a horse gallop, one must feed it grass. Without benefits, who would be willing to come here and fight against the warriors of the Abyssal Demon Clan?
After receiving the orders, Hongmeng looked towards the group of Heroic Spirits in front of him. "Each of you head to the corresponding battlefield, and be careful."
"Yes, My Lord!"
The Cruel Female Emperor and Divine King Gouri led the way, followed by Angel Sage Sovereign, The Unheeding One, Xin Yuehu, Xin Yuekui, Lifu Star Master Li Fuyan Luo, North Star Master Yu Beiyao, Silver Shark King Zen Silver Veil, Pope of the Essence Temple, Virtual Flying Rainbow, and other Divine Emperor Realm heroes who headed to the Imperial-level Battlefield. Adjacent to the Beheading Demon Stele were transport passages leading to each of the battlefields, making it convenient for the warriors of the Eternal Continent to travel to and from the battlefield for rest and recuperation.
Xiao Wu, Su Mu, Emperor Lena, Rose, Qian Renxue, Tushan Honghong, Tushan Rongrong, Dongfang Huaizhu, Ziyan, Dancing with the Wind, Starry Tears, Ah Lan, Peacock, and other God King Realm heroes headed to the King-level Battlefield.
Ah Zhu, Wang Yuyan, Yue Lingshan, DongFang Bai, Ren Yingying, Mingyue, You Ruo, Luo Xian, Yan Lingji, Tide Demoness, Nongyu, Snow Woman, Jing Ni, Li Mochou, and other Lord God Level heroes headed to the ordinary battlefield. The ordinary battlefield did not differentiate between Lord Gods and Heavenly Gods; all were mixed together.
Hongmeng, however, accompanied by Angel Yan, Kasha, Hexi, Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, Ah Yin, Lu Yi, Red Flame, Yan Ruyu, Gu Xun’er, Medusa, Purple Xuan, Dragon Hollyhock, Yue Tixia, and other Divine Emperor Realm heroes, headed to the Emperor-level Battlefield.
"Do you think Hongmeng will be able to make it onto the list?"
"Hongmeng’s strength should be quite formidable. Making it onto the rankings should be no problem, and he might even break into the top ten of the Sovereign List!"
"It won’t be easy to get into the top ten of the Sovereign List. The current number ten on the list, the Nine Eyes God Emperor, has already slain twelve Emperor level warriors, amassing twelve million Beheading Demon Points. For Hongmeng to surpass him is almost impossible!"
"Yes, although there are quite a few Emperor level Abyssal Demon Clan members in the battlefield between the two realms, killing one is not easy, as they are all equally powerful Emperor level beings!"
As Hongmeng and his companions left, the people around them started discussing. Regarding the Heroic Spirits under Hongmeng’s command, they believed it was nearly impossible for them to make it onto the rankings since they were Hongmeng’s subordinates. After all, those who made it onto the rankings were all unparalleled talents.
Hongmeng was unaware of all this. Even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.
At this moment, after traveling through the spatial passage, a dim and desolate battlefield of dark red unfolded before Hongmeng. Corpses littered the ground, their crimson blood staining the earth. Endless streams of ghastly, deathly, and bloody energy filled the air, saturating every inch of space. Beings below the level of a Divine King simply could not survive here, as the place was dominated by the murderous energy generated by the fall of Emperor level warriors. Even Divine Kings had to tread carefully here, let alone those below them.
However, for them, the Divine Emperors with Hongmeng, such things were clearly not an issue. There was even less concern for Hongmeng. Though he only possessed the power of the Divine Emperor Realm, his true combat abilities were on par with an Ancestral God.
"Alright, go and temper yourselves. Those with weaker strength should form teams; don’t get yourselves exterminated just after entering the battlefield," Hongmeng cautioned. Someone like Yue Tixia had relatively weaker combat power; if she encountered strong members of the Abyssal Demon Clan, she might just fall.
"Yes, My Lord!" Angel Yan and the others responded.
They hardly acted alone; instead, they formed small teams of two or three. Before their arrival, they had also gathered information about this place. Apart from some uniquely talented geniuses with superior combat strength who disdained teaming up, most people formed squads. After all, within the same rank, it was extremely difficult to eliminate an opponent in a one-on-one fight. The majority entered the battlefield to slay enemies and earn Beheading Demon Points to exchange for treasures, not simply to display personal heroism. Forming a team was naturally the best choice, as it also greatly increased their chances of survival.
Of course, there were some downsides to forming teams, such as the distribution of spoils of war. But on the whole, teaming up was stronger than acting alone.
Hongmeng didn’t keep any Heroic Spirit with him. He rode alone on an Ancient War Chariot, meandering through the battlefield.
HUMMM.
After wandering for less than fifteen minutes, terrifying ripples emanated from not far ahead. A Terrifying Beast appeared, dreadfully fierce and ferocious, with a powerful presence. Its eyes glinted with a cold, chilling light. It stood a hundred zhang tall, not gigantic, but still intimidating. It resembled a lion but was covered in blood-red fur that was extremely long. Additionally, on either side of its body were a pair of blood-red wings, like those of a phoenix.
"Blood Phoenix!" Hongmeng, sitting in his Ancient War Chariot, recognized this member of the Abyssal Demon Clan at a glance. Before coming here, he had researched the Abyssal Demon Clan, which naturally included some of the powerful races among them. The Blood Phoenix was a formidable race even within the Abyssal Dimension, boasting astonishing vital energy and immense strength. Its blood-red wings could tear through space itself, making it incredibly fast. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
"To travel alone, you must have quite the courage. Seems like you’re a genius!" The Blood Phoenix spoke. Its hundred-zhang-tall body was as red as blood, and its pupils emitted a cold light. It looked down at Hongmeng with a hint of coldness and cruelty. "This Emperor loves to torment geniuses the most!"
Seated calmly in the Ancient War Chariot, Hongmeng simply stated, "A tiger always walks alone; it is the sheep who flock together!"
