Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” - Chapter 563: Setting Up the Killing Battlefield
This operation was witnessed by all the envoys and representatives attending the celebration ceremony.
They all received messages from within their respective forces, simultaneously learning about the situations unfolding inside their organizations.
Everyone in the independent space-times had indeed been completely transferred out.
For many of them, this was the first time they truly experienced the methods of a Chaos Dominator. Compared to those below the Dao Venerable realm, it truly deserved the title of Dominator; it was simply too awe-inspiring.
After completing the first step of clearing personnel.
The eight Chaos Dominators acted simultaneously, beginning to arrange the terrain and landscape inside the Nine Stars Land.
The starry sky was reshaped, the earth condensed, mountains and rivers, abysses and rift valleys, all sorts of landforms were randomly distributed within the Nine Stars Land.
A vast number of treasures were casually scattered by the Chaos Dominators, transforming into various opportunities for cultivators to explore at will.
Among them, Su Yuan’s actions were the most eye-catching.
He was seen throwing out a full one hundred million Chaos Jade Marrows, scattering them like a sky full of flying feathers into the initially formed various terrains.
It made everyone’s eyes burn with desire.
Many cultivators wanted to see clearly the landing directions of the Chaos Jade Marrows, but they were scattered too widely upon landing, they were everywhere. Moreover, the Chaos Jade Marrows inherently possessed the ability to conceal heavenly secrets, making it even more difficult to record their locations.
However, this proved that Su Yuan’s words were not false; he had indeed taken out a staggering number of Chaos Jade Marrows.
Even the Chaos Dominators like Che Chi Old Man watched unblinkingly.
A long time passed.
The eight Chaos Dominators all stopped their actions.
The Nine Stars Land had completely changed its appearance under their joint transformation.
Su Yuan was extremely satisfied.
Che Chi Old Man spoke at this moment, “Haha, since the Killing Battlefield has been modified, why don’t we first test its effects?”
“Oh? Che Chi, what idea do you have?” Wuyazi asked.
Che Chi Old Man smiled slightly, “We each select and dispatch personnel into the Killing Battlefield. Each person will carry a corresponding token as proof. After a set time, the one who obtains the most tokens from killing enemies will naturally be the strongest! The soldiers participating in the battle can exchange tokens for benefits, and our initial resource distribution will also be determined according to the ranking order!”
The Stone Dominator’s eyes flickered as he asked, “Is there a limit on the number of personnel we can send?”
“No!” Che Chi Old Man said, “Sending more people does make obtaining tokens easier, but the possibility of losing tokens also increases. So, having many or few people each has its own considerations.”
He looked at Su Yuan, “Fellow Daoist Seven Stars, what do you think of this suggestion?”
Su Yuan nodded, “Within the Killing Battlefield, two modes can be formed. One is the usual killing and fighting, treasure hunting and seeking opportunities. The other is the competitive ranking mode, which can be used to allocate resources, and even resolve conflicts between Dominators!”
Dominator Taixuan said calmly, “Since that’s the case, let’s settle it this way! According to previous time arrangements, one competitive ranking session required ten thousand Yuan Assemblies of time. Now, with this new Killing Battlefield area being concentrated, the time can be shortened to just one hundred Yuan Assemblies!”
Everyone agreed.
After the official business concluded, it was time for the celebration’s eating, drinking, and entertainment segment.
The celebration lasted a full one hundred years, with various performances and delicacies leaving a deep impression on everyone.
A hundred years later, the banquet dispersed.
The various events that occurred here finally spread throughout the entire Chaos.
The matter of the Killing Battlefield thoroughly shocked the cultivators of all forces. A grand event sweeping across the entire Chaos was about to begin.
On the other side.
Su Yuan returned to his residence.
With a grave expression, he opened a book in his hand.
On the cover of the book were written three characters: “Taihao Biography.”
This was precisely a biography recording the legendary life of the Taihao Dominator. The biography’s end only went up to the point where the Taihao Dominator broke through to the Chaos Dominator realm.
This was a text he had casually asked for from Dominator Jiemeng during the banquet.
The ancient book bore the traces of time. This text recorded the true story of the Taihao Dominator.
Su Yuan traced his fingers over the Taihao Dominator’s true name written on it — Li Hao. He could feel the genuine fluctuation of the true name.
“He actually really perished!”
By touching this name, Su Yuan could perceive part of the other party’s state. Previously, he could sense that the Taihao Dominator was still alive.
Even though he didn’t know where within “Nothingness” he was surviving.
But now, when he touched the true name again, he could no longer detect the other party’s vitality.
Su Yuan sighed. With a tap of his finger, he immediately connected to the source lands of the four Chaos realms and released his True Name Dao Principle.
The [Tempering Heart in Mortal Dust] Chaos Trait activated. A power representing the immortality and eternal indestructibility of true names fell upon that text.
All the true names within the “Taihao Biography” seemed to come alive, breathing stale clichés within the pages, circulating with the Dao essence of life.
Countless points of true name light leaped out from each name, converging above the “Taihao Biography,” forming an illusory outline.
The vague appearance of the Taihao Dominator could be seen.
Subsequently, Su Yuan used the power of numerous Dao Principles to condense a True Spirit, soul, physical body, and so on, materializing the Taihao Dominator’s form out of thin air. As the True Name Power entered and took possession of the Taihao Dominator’s body.
The breath of life gradually surged on the body. Finally, this body slowly opened its eyes.
The Taihao Dominator’s consciousness was in a state of chaos, gradually clearing and recovering.
He blinked, stood up, and a look of post-calamity fear appeared on his face!
“Fortunately, fortunately, my self-detonation succeeded. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even be able to resurrect!” The Taihao Dominator showed a smile, “Fellow Daoist Seven Stars, I am immensely grateful for your help. Otherwise, I might not have been able to return through resurrection!”
“What exactly did you encounter?” Su Yuan spoke up at this moment.
The Taihao Chaos hesitated, “Can you block that perception coming from the Nothingness?”
“I have already used special means to isolate the inside from the outside!” Su Yuan said calmly.
The [Stealth Walker] Chaos Trait had already taken effect. An invisible barrier enveloped both of them.
Only then did the Taihao Dominator speak, “I encountered a special force calling themselves [Scavengers]. I don’t know their specific background, but the group of beings that came looking for me back then was exceptionally bizarre and powerful!”
He sighed, “Every [Scavenger] naturally possesses the ability to conceal their own existence, while also having a special ability to erase the existence of others. Their strengths vary as well. Among them, the strongest one, the being that chased me down, had strength comparable to mine, but that ability to erase existence was truly too troublesome.”
“Furthermore, as my subordinates perished and fewer and fewer living beings knew of me, the strength that Scavenger could exert grew stronger and stronger! I was fortunate to have left the Taihao Holy Hall in the Chaos, spreading news of me, making my existence difficult to erase for a long time.”
“And just a short while ago, a large chunk of my anchor points in the Taihao Chaos suddenly disappeared. I immediately fell into a clear disadvantage and ultimately resorted to self-detonation to preserve myself.”
Listening to the Taihao Dominator’s account, Su Yuan couldn’t help but think: Could it be that because he killed Venerable Yuanhao, the Taihao Dominator lost one of his biggest anchor points, leading to his downfall?
