The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1861: Chapter 1861: Farewell

Jing Yan nodded.

”Elder Guten not only harbored no ill intentions but also granted me numerous benefits. That Void Son Die Dong didn’t gain as much as I did.” Jing Yan said with a smile.

The resources Die Dong obtained in the Ancient Tree Elder Ruins were worth about two million Star Stones. Compared to Jing Yan’s gains, it paled in comparison.

”Yes, Jing Yan, you indeed are a person with great fortune. In the Ancient Tree Seed Universe, you obtained the Hongmeng Dao Pattern Secret Method. Coming to Endless Chaos, you took on a Slaughter Task to go to the Ancient Tree Elder Ruins, and you gained great benefits inside. If that Void Son Die Dong knew you not only survived but also gained so much, I wonder what he would think.” He Jiu said with a smile.

”By the way, Jing Yan. Previously, because you didn’t emerge from the ruins, I thought you were likely not going to make it, so I reported this to the Hongjun Heavenly Palace. Now, the Heavenly Palace might be negotiating with the high levels of the Void Divine Hall. I’m not very clear on the specifics since my level is still too low. Even if the Heavenly Palace’s top levels reach a conclusion, they wouldn’t notify me.” He Jiu continued.

”Senior Brother He Jiu holds a low position in the Heavenly Palace, let alone me. I only obtained the Hongmeng Dao Pattern Secret Method, possibly not even considered a member of the Hongjun Heavenly Palace.” Jing Yan shook his head lightly.

If he reached the Ultimate Land and entered the Hongjun Heavenly Palace, with the Hongmeng Dao Pattern Secret Method, he would certainly be considered a member of the Hongjun Heavenly Palace. But now, does the Hongjun Heavenly Palace even know who Jing Yan is?

Even if Senior Brother He Jiu reported this to the Heavenly Palace, the top levels of the Heavenly Palace might not give it much thought.

Jing Yan, however, did not mind much about this. Endless Chaos doesn’t revolve around him after all.

Subsequently, He Jiu and Jing Yan chatted for a while longer.

Suddenly, He Jiu said, ”Jing Yan, give me your Task Token. You haven’t yet received the Slaughter Points for that Slaughter Task.”

He Jiu just suddenly remembered this matter.

The Five-Ring Slaughter Task issued by Die Dong has a total of three hundred thousand Points of Slaughter Points, with two hundred and forty thousand Points remaining after the Slaughter God Temple takes its fees. Out of these, one hundred thousand Points of Slaughter Points have been allocated to Ye Hai, so Jing Yan can still claim one hundred and forty thousand Points of Slaughter Points.

”I can still claim them?” Jing Yan was quite surprised.

He thought the Slaughter Task had already been completed.

”Of course, you can. When Ye Hai submitted the Slaughter Task, the Investigation Hall could not ascertain your life or death, so they allocated the Slaughter Points based on the assumption that you were still alive. Ye Hai received a hundred thousand Slaughter Points, and you can claim another one hundred and forty thousand Slaughter Points.” He Jiu said with a smile.

”That’s great!” Jing Yan said with a smile.

A hundred and forty thousand Slaughter Points is equivalent to nearly thirty thousand Star Stones, which is quite considerable. For normal All Things Realm powerhouses, tens of thousands of Star Stones are not a small amount.

Jing Yan and He Jiu went to the Investigation Hall.

Mysterious Energy descended, and a mechanical voice followed, allowing Jing Yan to receive one hundred and forty thousand Slaughter Points.

The mechanical voice asked if he wished to allocate them.

But He Jiu was momentarily stunned because when the Investigation Hall verified Jing Yan’s identity, he sensed Jing Yan’s realm, which was the aura of the Taoist Realm.

The last time he saw Jing Yan, Jing Yan was at Earth Realm Peak. Now, he had already reached the Taoist Realm. Jing Yan, at the Earth Realm, could kill a Devouring Sky Clan life form like Ju E. Now that he has stepped into the Taoist Realm, how strong is his power? Probably, he can easily battle ordinary All Things Realm opponents head-on, right?

”Allocate!” After a moment of daze, He Jiu finally instructed the Investigation Temple to allocate the Points directly.

Jing Yan obtained one hundred and forty thousand Slaughter Points, and at the same time, the four circular ring imprints on his chest transformed into five interwoven silver ring marks. Jing Yan successfully advanced to become a Five-Ring Slayer.

”Jing Yan, you’ve already advanced to the Taoist Realm?” He Jiu inquired of Jing Yan at this time.

”Yes, I gained many benefits within the Ancient Tree Elder Ruins and broke through my realm.” Jing Yan nodded.

”Amazing! Truly amazing! So young and you’ve already reached the Taoist Realm level; this is extremely rare within the Hongjun Heavenly Palace. I’m certain, as soon as you arrive at the Hongjun Heavenly Palace, you will definitely be accepted by the high levels. You might even directly become a core member, receiving focused cultivation from the Heavenly Palace, just like that Void Son of the Void Divine Hall.” He Jiu was happy for Jing Yan.

”The journey to the Ultimate Land is long. Even if I travel non-stop, it will take a long time to reach. But that’s alright, taking it slow.” Jing Yan said.

”Yes, taking it slow, you will reach eventually. Once you enter the Hongjun Heavenly Palace, you will receive many resource rewards. You stepping into the All Things Realm might happen soon as well. With your power, stepping into the All Things Realm, you’ll surely make your name known in the Endless Chaos.” He Jiu said, his emotions high.

Jing Yan converted all of his one hundred and forty thousand Slaughter Points into Star Stones, totaling twenty-eight thousand Star Stones.

Jing Yan did not plan to delay further, preparing to set out for the Hongjun Heavenly Palace. The continuous teleportation along this journey requires a large number of Star Stones. Converting the Slaughter Points into other cultivation resources would merely be a drop in a bucket, so it was better to convert all of it into Star Stones.

”Senior Brother, I plan to leave Laning Country in a few days.” Jing Yan said.

”Yes, if you’re leaving, I won’t stop you. With your current strength, traveling in Endless Chaos, as long as you don’t encounter too strong All Things Realm opponents, you should be able to protect yourself.” He Jiu nodded in agreement.

Jing Yan and He Jiu shared a drink in the inner hall room before bidding farewell.

In the following days, Jing Yan also kept an eye on the Slaughter Tasks available at the Slaughter God Temple. If there were any relatively High-Level Slaughter Tasks offering substantial Points, Jing Yan would accept and complete them before leaving. However, after checking daily, he found no tasks at the Four Rings level or higher.

”It’s time to go!”

”Laning Country is just an ordinary nation. High-Level Slaughter Tasks are very rare. Reaching some larger nations, I should be able to take on High-Level Slaughter Tasks.” Jing Yan thought to himself.

Jing Yan planned to continue accepting Slaughter Tasks earning Slaughter Points and resources on the way to the Hongjun Heavenly Palace. When encountering High-Level tasks, he would complete them with ease. He thought he could accept any Slaughter Tasks not exceeding the Sixth Ring level, be they official or private.

Before leaving, Jing Yan specifically went to the Emperor’s Palace to bid farewell to Yuanqi Country Lord. Yuanqi Country Lord previously also thought Jing Yan might have little chance of survival, but after Jing Yan returned, He Jiu conveyed the news to Yuanqi Country Lord. Upon meeting Jing Yan this time, Yuanqi Country Lord was not surprised.

Upon seeing Jing Yan, Yuanqi Country Lord expressed his apologies to Jing Yan, for Jing Yan had taken on Die Dong’s task, which in some ways was related to him. Jing Yan, of course, did not blame Yuanqi Country Lord, who had acted with good intentions.
