4302 The Shocking Rewards For the Top Three Ranks
The advanced chaotic region rarely appeared. It depended on the supreme powerhouses’ whim. As such, everyone cherished this once-in-a-blue-moon opportunity.
It was said the last time the advanced chaotic region appeared was at least a hundred thousand years ago, and before that, it appeared about three hundred thousand years ago.
Very few advanced Supreme Gods lived to a hundred thousand years old because they were unable to survive their Heavenly Tribulations that occurred every one thousand years. As such, everyone would try their best to accumulate chaotic points. After all, even the ones who ranked tenth in their respective categories would be rewarded with a drop from the divine fountain.
“It’s said that everyone who ranks in the top ten will be rewarded with the liquid from the divine fountain. Needless to say, the higher you rank, the more you’ll obtain!”
“The tenth place will receive a drop from the divine fountain!”
“The ninth place will receive two drops from the divine fountain!”
“The eighth place will receive four drops from the divine fountain!”
“The seventh place will receive eight drops from the divine fountain!”
“… And the first, second, and third place will receive 512 drops, 256 drops, and 128 drops respectively!”
After the news was spread by the descendants of supreme powerhouses in the advanced chaotic region, an uproar broke out. Nobody expected that those who ranked in the top ten would be rewarded so greatly. A drop from the divine fountain was shocking enough even if it could not compare to 512 drops from the divine fountain.
“I have to rank in the top three! The rewards are unimaginably precious! Even the sons of supreme powerhouses can’t obtain such a thing in their lives!”
“I heard that the divine fountain was found by a powerful supreme powerhouse. I heard that he refused to give it to the other supreme powerhouses when they asked him for it. He wanted to use it as rewards for the advanced chaotic region!”
…
‘512 drops from the divine fountain?! Is this real?’
Duan Ling Tian was shocked when he heard the news. He could not help but feel skeptical until he heard the descendants of supreme powerhouses talking about it in various base camps. They all spoke confidently, and nobody refuted them.
‘Those who rank first in the categories for Lords of Gods to advanced Supreme Gods will receive 512 drops from the divine fountain? Heavens, did the supreme powerhouse find a spring of divine fountain?’
It took Duan Ling Tian a while to recover from the shock. He had learned about how precious the divine fountain was from his Fourth Senior Sister, Lang Chun Yuan, when he returned to the Profound Energy Land. All he needed to do now was to rank first among rudimentary Supreme Gods to obtain 512 drops from the divine fountain.
‘I need to work harder and accumulate more chaotic points! I’ll have to try and find out which rudimentary Supreme God has more points than me and kill him! Even if I can’t claim his points, I’ll have one fewer competitor.”
In the advanced chaotic region, unlike battle merits, one could not claim the chaotic points of the person one killed. However, one could kill those with the same cultivation bases to earn chaotic points, and by doing so, one could also get rid of the competition.
With this, Duan Ling Tian and the other top contenders in their respective categories began to work diligently to accumulate chaotic points.
…
In the depths of the advanced chaotic region.
Two rudimentary Supreme Gods perished as a young woman watched. She seemed anxious at this moment.
‘I was fooled by Third Senior Brother! There are so many restrictions on my doppelganger! With the restrictions, junior brother will definitely accumulate more chaotic points than me! After all, he had a head start accumulating battle merits so he can open many multi-person secret realms. How can my battle merits compare to his?’
The young woman was Lang Chun Yuan, Duan Ling Tian’s Fourth Senior Sister. She had sent her doppelganger into the Realm Battlefield after Duan Ling Tian returned to the Myriad Laws Academy in the Profound Energy Land.
‘Well, I don’t mind ranking second if junior brother ranks first. With this, both of us will win the grand prizes!’ Lang Chun Yuan thought to herself, feeling more at ease.
However, after a moment, Lang Chun Yuan grew anxious again. ‘Why is it taking so long for the deca-secret realm to appear? It’s too slow! I didn’t even use that many battle merits to open it so why is everyone so slow?’
Lang Chun Yuan had opened a deca-secret realm two years ago, but the portal had yet to appear until now.
In the end, Lang Chun Yuan could only continue to search for targets as she waited to enter the deca-secret realm. The intermediate Supreme Gods that she met along the way were no match for her at all.
…
In a barren desert.
A gust of wind blew past, stirring up the sand into the sky.
A young man flew into the sky as the phenomenon that indicated the death of an intermediate Supreme God appeared.
After the phenomenon disappeared, peace returned to the desert.
At this time, a middle-aged man appeared in the distance. Based on the light his body emitted, he was from the Divine Offering Land, and based on the Divine Energy lingering on the surface of his skin, he was an intermediate Supreme God.
As soon as the middle-aged man appeared, he called out, “Ning Yi Xuan!”
The young man was none other than Ning Yi Xuan.
“Wang Qi Yun, why are you here? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you?” Ning Yi Xuan asked in a dark voice as he looked at the middle-aged man.
Ning Yi Xuan and Wang Qi Yun, the middle-aged man, were not on good terms. However, Ning Yi Xuan’s best friend was Wang Qi Yun’s cousin brother. As such, Ning Yi Xuan had held back time and time again from teaching Wang Qi Yun a lesson.
“Ning Yi Xuan, I believe you won’t kill me. After all, my cousin is Ming,” Wang Qi Yun said with a faint smile, ignoring Ning Yi Xuan’s threats, “Anyway, it’s a coincidence that I ran into you here.”
After a brief pause, Wang Qi Yun asked, “I’m really curious. Do you regret breaking through and becoming an intermediate Supreme God? At that time, you probably didn’t expect the rewards for the top three ranks would be so lucrative, right?”
A hint of mockery could be heard in Wang Qi Yun’s voice when he spoke.
Ning Yi Xuan glanced at Wang Qi Yun before he said indifferently, “Do you think I regret my decision? If so, it only means that you’re not a very ambitious person. No wonder you failed to stabilize your cultivation base after so many years…”
The corners of Ning Yi Xuan’s lips curled into a sneer near the end of his words.
Wang Qi Yun’s expression turned unsightly as he said with a scoff, “Ning Yi Xuan, don’t be too complacent… You might not even make it into the top ten ranking for intermediate Supreme Gods! There are so many powerful intermediate Supreme Gods from the various Realms of Gods, after all. From our Realm of Gods alone, we have at least 20 famous intermediate Supreme Gods. You better watch out!”
Wang Qi Yun left after he finished speaking. He was not worried that Ning Yi Xuan would attack him.
The sneer on Ning Yi Xuan’s face deepened as he watched Wang Qi Yun leave and muttered to himself, “Your lowly ambitions can never compare to my lofty ambitions.”
Indeed, Ning Yi Xuan did not know about the specifics of the rewards previously. Before the advanced chaotic region appeared, just like everyone else, he only knew that those who ranked tenth would be rewarded with a drop from the divine fountain. It was only later that he found out those who ranked higher would be rewarded with more drops from the divine fountain. Similar to the other descendants of supreme powerhouses, he had also heard from his ancestor that a powerful supreme powerhouse had discovered a divine fountain in the Outer Boundary and decided to use it as a reward for the advanced chaotic region.
“I wouldn’t be Ning Yi Xuan if I were afraid of competing with intermediate Supreme Gods! So what if I just broke through recently? If I’m afraid, how am I going to surpass Duan Ling Tian?” Ning Yi Xuan muttered to himself as his eyes shone with confidence.
…
Somewhere in the advanced chaotic region.
Yang Yu Chen was grinning when he came out of a multi-person secret realm.
‘Second Senior Brother, if I surpass you and rank first among intermediate Supreme Gods, you better not accuse me of disrespecting my seniors!’
‘Junior brother’s idea is really great! I didn’t expect to work for everyone. I’m really kind!’
