Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 1326: Chapter 1326: Bloody Murder Jungle

Buzz!

A giant light portal in the void suddenly trembled, and countless rays of light fell down like comets.

Each ray of light turned into a cultivator upon landing on the square.

”The three days are up, the Thousand Lakes Sword Array has ended!”

Someone shouted, showing a look of surprise and delight.

Everyone appearing on the square represents having passed the test of the Thousand Lakes Sword Array and successfully claimed the ticket for the next trial.

Jiang Lengyue glanced at the Sword Dao prides descending from the sky and sighed softly, ”Three days, it really tested these guys...”

”Indeed, not easy,”

Ye Yun nodded in agreement.

The Sword Dao prides appeared one by one, exhausted and disheveled, but a deep sense of joy was apparent in their eyes.

They had finally passed the test of the first round.

”No idea what the next phase is, hurry and recover your strength!”

A youth in the Ninth Level of God-Honor Realm muttered to himself, then quickly took out a pellet and ingested it.

Others did the same.

The square became silent, everyone started to conserve and replenish their energy, preparing for the next trial.

Meanwhile.

The light portal in the void slowly disappeared.

After a day’s rest.

Whoosh... the void rippled, and another giant light portal appeared.

This portal was red, towering and imposing, with a faint heavy and bloody aura.

A figure flickered, Elder Duan appeared before the portal.

”The Thousand Lakes Sword Array was just the first test; the second test is the Bloody Murder Jungle.”

Elder Duan stood in the void, speaking aloud.

Bloody Murder Jungle?

Upon hearing these words, many Sword Dao prides immediately showed slight changes in their expressions.

It sounded terrifying just by its name.

Would they be made to kill each other?

Thinking of this, the faces of many young cultivators in the Divine Sovereign Realm showed signs of fear.

Although they wished to join the Sword Pavilion, nobody wanted to lose their life pointlessly on the Hanging Island.

In the square.

Only those Sword Dao prides in the Eighth Layer of the God King Realm showed little reaction upon hearing Elder Duan’s words.

Everyone’s expressions were relatively calm, including Pan Wu.

”This is the Slaughter Token,”

Elder Duan suddenly waved his hand, and rays of light fell from the sky, accurately landing in the hands of each Sword Dao pride.

Slaughter Token?

With the Slaughter Tokens in their hands, everyone scrutinized them closely.

This was a blood-red token, with only the word ’slaughter’ inscribed on the front, but a series of ancient formations were engraved on the back.

”Keep the Slaughter Token with you, once you are slain, the token will activate and teleport you back to the square.”

Elder Duan’s voice echoed at this moment.

”Elder Duan, does teleporting out mean losing qualification?”

Holding the token, Jiang Lengyue raised her head with a smile and asked.

”Not necessarily, the final selection will be based on slaughter points, only the top 103 ranked will qualify to join our Sword Pavilion!”

Elder Duan explained.

”Why 103?”

A youth in the Divine King Realm asked, puzzled.

”Don’t forget, our Sword Pavilion is divided into secular and aloof worlds, this time recruiting 100 disciples for the secular world, and 3 for the aloof world. After selecting 103 from the Bloody Murder Jungle, there will be a third test in the form of an arena battle, with the last three chosen to join the aloof world...”

Elder Duan slowly explained to everyone.

”Oh, I see.”

Many Sword Dao prides on the square showed a sudden realization.

”Next, let me talk about the slaughter points...”

Elder Duan coughed and said, ”When the Slaughter Token is activated, you will be randomly teleported to the Bloody Murder Jungle, where a wild slaughter begins—killing someone within the same major realm earns one point, cross-realm killing within a minor stage gets three points, within three stages gets five points, and above five stages gets ten points.”

”Elder Duan, what about different major realms?”

Ye Yun asked.

Elder Duan looked at Ye Yun, seemingly predicting something, smiled and explained: ”In different major realms, killing by higher realms doesn’t earn points; lower realms killing higher earns ten points...”

”That does sound reasonable.”

Ye Yun nodded.

This method also prevented those in the Divine King Realm from slaughtering Divine Sovereign Realm cultivators.

If someone attempted that, they wouldn’t earn any points or benefits.

”Elder Duan, can slaughter points be seized from others?”

Pan Wu raised his head, looked up at Elder Duan, and grinned.

”Slaughter points cannot be seized, the one who kills maintains their points, and it will be tallied at the end...”

Elder Duan stated calmly.

Many Sword Dao prides in the high-level Divine King Realm showed disappointed expressions upon hearing this.

It seems.

Taking slaughter points from others was not feasible; their path was blocked by the Sword Pavilion, and despite their higher cultivation base, they could only earn points by genuinely fighting.

Fortunately, there were relatively many Sword Dao prides in the Divine King Realm on the square, earning points shouldn’t be too difficult.

Some Sword Dao prides in the lower-level Divine King Realm looked a bit solemn.

Naturally, they were unwilling to be slaughtered.

So at this moment, everyone realized that to advance successfully, they had to kill as many as possible in a short amount of time.

This way, even if they were killed, they would still retain their points.

Seeing the varying expressions of the Sword Dao prides, Elder Duan suddenly spoke loudly, ”Let me clarify, within the same major realm, teaming up to kill is not allowed! Otherwise, you will be deemed to be cheating and forfeit qualification for this trial!”

Teaming in the same major realm is forbidden?

Upon hearing this, everyone’s hearts skipped a beat, but upon second thought, they also understood.

If people in the same realm were to team up, it would easily result in one-sided situations.

A youth in the Fifth Layer of the Divine Sovereign Realm raised his Slaughter Token, nervously asking, ”Elder Duan, can this Slaughter Token truly ensure our safety?”

”Rest assured, when you encounter a life-or-death crisis, the Slaughter Token will automatically activate teleportation!”

Elder Duan said solemnly.

The youth quickly nodded, a relaxed expression appearing on his face.

Everyone else also felt relieved at this moment.

”Ye Chen, once inside, quickly kill, but beware of that Pan Wu!”

Jiang Lengyue suddenly tugged at Ye Yun’s sleeve and whispered.

”Don’t worry.”

Ye Yun smiled faintly and then said nonchalantly, ”You folks in the Eighth Layer of the Divine King Realm can only get one point per kill, with no extra rewards for exceeding levels, what a pity.”

”Indeed, we can only win through sheer numbers!”

Jiang Lengyue said with a helpless smile.

This second test, having a high realm has instead become pointless.

At this time.

Elder Duan looked around them, indifferently saying, ”Alright, the Bloody Murder Jungle is now open, activate your Slaughter Tokens!”

”Alright!”

Everyone agreed loudly, and quickly activated their Slaughter Tokens.

Whoosh whoosh... beams of light soared into the sky and disappeared into the large blood-red portal.

On the square.

Only Ye Yun was left.

Elder Duan descended from the sky, helplessly saying, ”Ye Chen, why aren’t you rushing?”

”Just need to kill a few in the Divine King Realm.”

Ye Yun smiled calmly.

”That’s true...”

Elder Duan also shook his head helplessly, appearing quite embarrassed.

For Ye Chen, killing someone in the Divine King Realm would grant ten points, it was just too easy for him.
