Chapter 2995: Scoreboard

Chapter 2995: Scoreboard

There were thousands of Golden Horns Ravens. Thus, Duan Ling Tian could only escape far away after he rushed into the forest to break the ravens’ formation.

The Golden Horns Ravens were slower than Duan Ling Tian when they were not in a formation. However, if they were in formation, their speed would be comparable to a Celestial Duke.

Although the thousands of Golden Horns Ravens would have to break their formation when they entered the forest, it would not take long for them to regroup and fly in formation again. At that time, it would be easy for them to catch up to Duan Ling Tian and kill him!

“They weren’t so fast earlier. They only became faster when they drew close to me. It seems like they only completed their formation at that time.” After rushing into the forest, Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Origin Energy intensified and shot into the ground. Soon after, he shone with a golden and purple light. At the same time, a whirlpool in front of him, absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the surroundings before it disappeared.

Duan Ling Tian had cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic, the Eastern Purple Qi, and the Immobilization King Method. At the same time, his Celestial Origin Energy surged out of his body rapidly after it coursed through his 99 Heavenly Veins.

Swoosh!

A lightning bolt that was a mixture of mustard, gold, and purple suddenly shot out of Duan Ling Tian as he moved swiftly through the forest. After a while, he suddenly came to halt. He discovered the forest was strangely quiet; it was unsettling. “What’s going on?”

Duan Ling Tian boldly turned around and retraced his steps. Strange enough, he did not see any Golden Horn Ravens. Even when he walked to the place where he first dove down to escape, he did not see any Golden Horns Ravens.

“What’s going on?” Curious, Duan Ling Tian flew up into the air again, but he did not completely leave the protection of the forest. At the same time, he extended his Divine Consciousness; he could clearly sense a few auras above the forest.

“Is it possible that the Golden Horns Ravens can’t enter the forest?” As Duan Ling Tian hovered near the treetops he saw thousands of Golden Horns Ravens in the air. They were all staring at him at this moment. Most importantly, they were still in formation.

‘Let’s see if I’m right…’ With this thought in mind, Duan Ling Tian inhaled deeply before he flew out of the forest at lightning speed. Naturally, he did not stray too far from the forest.

At this moment, a series of cacophonous cries resounded in the sky. The piercing cries hurt Duan Ling Tian’s eardrums. It was so painful that it felt as though they were going to rupture.

After taking a closer look, Duan Ling Tian realized that the golden horns on the heads of the ravens began to shine brightly before they flapped their wings and swooped down toward him.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The sight of thousands of Golden Horns Ravens swooping down at him was so terrifying that he felt chills running up his spine. He did not waste any time and quickly returned to the forest.

When the Golden Horns Ravens drew close to the forest, they stopped immediately as though they were being held back by an invisible barrier. Then, they returned to their original positions and stared at Duan Ling Tian.

“I knew it.” With this, Duan Ling Tian confirmed his speculation. Indeed, for some reason, the Golden Horns Ravens could not enter the forest. He was not too surprised by this discovery. After all, if these thousands of the Golden Horns Ravens were allowed to roam unfettered in the Southern Ancient Realm, all of the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials who entered the realm would die.

“The presence of these Golden Horns Ravens prevent Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in the forest from traveling to the sky above the forest. If one leaves the protection of the forest, one would definitely be attacked by the Golden Horns Ravens.” Duan Ling Tian speculated that this was a restriction in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm to prevent them from flying over the forest.

It would be difficult for Duan Ling Tian to get the lay of the land since he could not fly up into the air. He could only explore the forest bit by bit and stick to the ground for now.

“I guess I’ll just randomly pick a direction and see where it leads me to…” Duan Ling Tian no longer wasted any time and charged in a random direction. Due to his speed, many of the non-intelligent Celestial Beasts in the forest that were alarmed by his movements could not catch up to him.

“My current speed is equivalent to a Celestial Duke… The strongest Celestial Beast I’ve encountered so far is only comparable to an ordinary peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. It might be a threat to ordinary Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials but not to me.”

If Duan Ling Tian had not comprehended the law of earth’s Fundamental Profundity, the Earth Elemental Profundity, his journey would not have been so smooth. Due to his comprehension of the Earth Elemental Profundity, he moved unimpeded in the forest.

…

Time passed by quietly. In just a blink of an eye, ten days had passed.

In the air above the center of Scaling Cloud Lake.

The entrance to the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, otherwise, known as the Void Gate, had been closed after the 12,000 Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials had passed through it. After the Void Gate closed, a veil of light suddenly appeared in the air in front of the gate. The veil shone with an intense white light. It looked almost as though a huge sheet of paper was hanging in front of the gate.

In the beginning, many people were intrigued by this paper-like veil of light. However, after ten days, fewer and fewer people paid attention to it.

At this moment, someone cried out, “Someone’s name has appeared!”

These words drew the attention of the people back to the veil of light immediately. They saw a name appear on the veil of light, looking no different from a name written on a piece of paper. They saw the words, Wu Xiao Yu, two points.

“Wu Xiao Yu!”

“Who’s Wu Xiao Yu?”

“Since his name is the first to appear on the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm’s scoreboard, it means he’s the first person to kill a participant.”

“I wonder who he killed…”

“The respective leaders of the participants should have the participants’ Soul Pearls in hand. With this, we’ll be able to find out who died, right?”

“You’re mistaken… According to the Southern Heavenly Territory’s history, the Southern Heaven Celestial Lord who created the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm comprehended and mastered the law of time. When he was creating the upper, middle, and lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, he laid a Formation using the law of time. For this reason, if someone dies in the realm, his Soul Pearl wouldn’t shatter at his time of death. It might take a while before the Soul Pearl shatters. Moreover, the period of delay isn’t fixed. Due to the time lag, if more than one person is killed, we won’t be able to tell who has killed who based on the time a name appears on the scoreboard and the time a Soul Peal shatters…”

“This means if someone with a weak background kills an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial from a grade-seven force, the force wouldn’t be able to seek revenge, right?”

“That’s right. The Southern Heaven Celestial Lord was also concerned about this so he laid that Formation in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.”

At the same time, the air above the center of Scaling Cloud lake that was originally silent turned lively once the first name appeared on the scoreboard.

An old man laughed in delight when he saw the name on the scoreboard. “Xiao Yu, good job!”

“Congratulations, Brother Wu! Your grandchild is in the lead for now!” A middle-aged man and an old man standing nearby smiled and congratulated the laughing old man. However, a hint of jealousy brewed in the depths of their eyes.

The old man, Brother Wu, was from a grade-eight clan. Wu Xiao Yu, whose name was the first to appear on the scoreboard, was his grandson.

The two people who congratulated him were from another two grade-eight clans who had also sent their respective Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials into the realm.

“Well, there’s a possibility it’s just someone who has the same name as my grandson,” the old man, Brother Wu, modestly replied. Inwardly, he did not think there would be such a coincidence. He was rather certain it was his grandson. After all, there were only 12,000 people who entered the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, and his grandson’s name was not a popular name.

About two hours after the first name appeared, another commotion broke out…

“Another name has appeared!”

Ling Jue Yun, two points.

‘Ling Jue Yun? Isn’t he the genius sectless cultivator from the East Ming Nation?’ When Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, saw the second name on the scoreboard, his eyes narrowed imperceptibly as he looked at a middle-aged man with a medium stature.

This middle-aged man had an imposing and majestic air about him. There was no doubt he was someone with high status. He was beaming when Ling Jue Yun’s name appeared on the scoreboard.

“It seems Ling Jue Yun is the genius sectless cultivator from the East Ming Nation.” Based on the middle-aged man’s reaction, Hu Lin Yi confirmed his speculation.

The middle-aged man with a medium build was none other than the Emperor of the East Ming Nation. He had personally led the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from his nation here.

Many of the representatives from grade-eight sects and clans who accompanied their respective forces’ Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials here held a high position in their respective forces.

On the other hand, the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from grade-eight Celestial Kingdoms were mostly accompanied by the respective emperors of their nations.

“Heavens! His points increased again!”

Before Hu Lin Yi regained his sense, another cry resounded in the air. He instinctively turned to look at the scoreboard and saw Ling Jue Yun who ranked second on the scoreboard had jumped to first place with three points. ‘Ling Jue Yun managed to kill two people in such a short time?’
