How could he obtain two points in such a short time?
There was only one possibility.
Ling Jueyun must have killed two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in such a short time. That was how he obtained two points in such a short time.
"Killing two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials … It seems like Ling Jueyun is quite strong."
"That's right. Those who are allowed to enter the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm are the cream of the crop among the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials. It doesn't matter if he's strong enough to kill two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in such a short time. "
"I wonder which force Ling Jueyun belongs to."
"I know Ling Jueyun. He's a sectless cultivator from the East Ming Nation. Moreover, Ling Jueyun defeated eight Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the East Ming Nation during the Southern Heaven Combat in the East Ming Nation."
"He's so strong even though he's only a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial … Could it be that he has comprehended some profundities from a law?"
"That's right! Moreover, it's said that he has comprehended the law of death, one of the Four Supreme Laws! "
"The law of death?!"
…
Ling Jueyun's rise to the top of the scoreboard had caused a commotion among the crowd.
When news of Ling Jueyun's origin and the law of death that Ling Jueyun had comprehended were revealed, it caused another uproar.
At this moment, many people walked up to the Emperor of the East Ming Nation to congratulate him.
"A sectless cultivator with the cultivation base of a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial defeated eight of the most outstanding Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from a grade-eight Celestial Nation?"
"The law of death?"
When the five leaders of the Three Sects and Two Clans heard about Ling Jueyun, they were intrigued by Ling Jueyun's achievements.
"I didn't expect such an outstanding young man to be the second person to reach the top of the scoreboard …"
Zhangsun Xiong Qi from the Zhangsun Clan sighed.
Before he could finish sighing, another voice sounded beside his ear. "It is said that Ling Jueyun is not even a hundred years old this year!"
"Less than a hundred years old?!"
Upon hearing this, even Bihai Mingfeng, the Third Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect, was shocked. "Such a genius actually appeared in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm?"
He had comprehended the Law of Death.
As a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, he had defeated the eight most outstanding Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in a grade-eight Celestial Kingdom.
Although it was extraordinary, there were many people in the Profound Nether Mansion who were capable of such a feat.
However, if one were to add the fact that he was not even a hundred years old before such achievements, the significance would be completely different.
"I want this person … I won't fight with you for the others."
Bihai Mingfeng glanced at Zhangsun Xiongqi and the other leaders of the two sects and two clans and said.
Hearing Bihai Mingfeng's words, Zhangsun Xiongqi and the others shook their heads without any hesitation.
"Sect Master Bihai, forgive me for not being able to agree to this … Not to mention, even if I agree to this, it will be difficult to explain to our sect master. Even the Profound Nether Mansion's rules don't allow this, right? "
Zhang Guang Zheng, the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, said without beating around the bush.
"Sect Master Bihai, I can't agree to this either."
Heng Chan, the leader of the Cloud Platform Celestial Sect and the Arhat Palace Master of the Cloud Platform Celestial Sect, said.
The Cloud Platform Immortal Sect was led by the Sect Master.
Below the Sect Master, other than one or two Guardians, were the Hall Masters of the Cloud Platform Celestial Sect.
Out of all the palace masters in the Cloud Platform Immortal Sect, Heng Chan, the palace master of the Arhat Palace, was the strongest.
For this reason, Heng Chan's position in the Cloud Platform Celestial Sect was second only to the Sect Leader and the two Guardians.
"Sect Master Bihai, please don't make things difficult for me."
Gong Yang Yu, the leader of the Gong Yang Family, said with a bitter smile. Compared to Heng Chan and Zhang Guangzheng, he was clearly lacking in confidence.
"Sect Master Bihai, I think it's better to wait for him to come out and let him decide for himself."
Zhangsun Xiong Qi, the leader of the Zhangsun Clan, was the last to respond. Although his tone was calm and tactful, it was clear he was indirectly rejecting Bihai Mingfeng.
Bihai Mingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the four people's responses. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, but he did not say anything.
If it was just the four people in front of him, he could easily kill them all by himself.
However, the four people were backed by grade-seven forces that had a close relationship with the Profound Nether Mansion, just like the Coupling Celestial Sect.
It would be easy to kill the four people, but it would not be easy to clean up the mess after killing them.
Moreover, the forces behind the four people were closely related to the Profound Nether Mansion. Even the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion would not allow him to easily make enemies with the four forces.
"Another name has appeared!"
"The fourth name has appeared as well!"
"That's the fifth name!"
…
After Ling Jueyun obtained two points and rose to the top of the scoreboard, a few more people rose to the top of the scoreboard.
However, according to those who knew them, these people could only be considered as elites among peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials.
Their strength was far from Ling Jueyun's level.
In just a blink of an eye, ten days had passed.
There were now more than 1,000 names on the scoreboard. However, the person at the top of the scoreboard was no longer Ling Jueyun. Ling Jueyun had been pushed down to second place.
The person at the top of the scoreboard was Yao Wei, a member of a grade-seven force. He had entered the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm not to join the Three Sects and Two Clans, but to use the Three Sects and Two Clans as a springboard to enter the Profound Nether Mansion.
"This Yao Wei has already obtained eight points … Who the hell is he? Why do I feel like he's even crazier than Ling Jueyun? "
"You don't know Yao Wei? He's from the Yao Clan, a grade-seven clan. Not only that, but he's also known as the strongest genius in the Yao Clan in the past 10,000 years. He's not even 200 years old, but he's already a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial and has comprehended profundities from a law. "
"Does this mean he's not any weaker than Ling Jueyun?"
"I'm afraid he's still slightly weaker than Ling Jueyun. After all, Ling Jueyun has comprehended the law of death while Yao Wei has only comprehended the law of water."
"Every time the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm opens, people from grade-seven forces try to join the Profound Nether Mansion through the Three Sects and Two Clans, but how many of them succeed?"
"That's right. There are many people from grade-seven forces who joined the Three Sects and Two Clans after they entered the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. However, none of them managed to pass the test and join the Profound Nether Mansion. In the end, they had no choice but to return to their original forces in dejection."
"I wonder why the Three Sects and Two Clans are willing to accept these people. These people are clearly ingrates!"
"In fact, the Three Sects and Two Clans don't want to recruit people from grade-seven forces. However, the Profound Nether Mansion forbade them from doing so."
…
Twenty days later, there were more than 1,000 names on the scoreboard. Most of them only had two points, and the person ranked first had eight points.
As for Ling Jueyun, he was ranked second with seven points.
"Qi 'er!"
A sorrowful cry suddenly rang in the air, attracting many people's attention.
It was an old man. He looked at the shattered Soul Bead in his hand. His eyes were about to pop out of their sockets as tears streamed down his face.
"That's Yang Ji, a One Basic Celestial King from the Imperial family of the Tai Yun Celestial Kingdom. Did his grandson, who entered the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, die? "
"I think so … Yang Ji's grandson's name is Yang Qi!"
'Yang Qi is considered to be quite strong among peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials … It seems like he was unlucky to have encountered someone stronger than him so soon after entering the Void of Life.'
"Moreover, it's obvious that the person is so strong that he couldn't escape. If the person's strength is only slightly stronger than him, his speed might not be inferior to the person's. That way, he still has a chance to escape."
"Now that the identity of the first person to die has been exposed, are the identities of the others still far from being exposed?"
…
Everyone's attention was on the old man as they discussed among themselves. The old man looked at the names on the scoreboard as though he was trying to find his grandson's murderer.
However, even if only one-tenth of the people on the scoreboard were capable of killing his grandson, there were still more than 100 people on the scoreboard.
Unless that person came out and admitted to killing his grandson or a witness came out alive and told the old man the truth, it was impossible.
Otherwise, how was he going to find the person who killed his grandson?
"Yuan 'er!"
"Little Kai!"
"Mo Chou!"
…
After the first person's Soul Pearl shattered, many other people's Soul Pearls shattered as well. Their expressions were extremely unsightly.
Those who had Soul Orbs in their hands were basically people who represented the forces behind them.
Some of them were even their closest relatives.
Some were happy while others were sad.
Many people were looking at the scoreboard with anticipation on their faces. It was as though they were waiting for a name to appear on it.
"Huang 'er and Jia Long are on the scoreboard, but Duan Lingtian isn't on the scoreboard? With his strength, it shouldn't be possible … "
Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, glanced at the scoreboard again, but he did not see Duan Lingtian's name.
'There are only two possibilities … One is that Duan Lingtian hasn't made a move yet, and the other is that Duan Lingtian has been killed by someone else.'
With that thought in mind, Hu Lin Yi sent his Divine Consciousness into his Spatial Ring and looked inside.
Duan Ling Tian's Soul Pearl was lying silently in his Spatial Ring, and it was completely intact.
He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this.
However, when his eyes landed on the other Soul Beads, his expression changed slightly. This was because he saw that one of the Soul Beads had shattered right in front of him!
This Soul Pearl belonged to a relatively strong peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial that the Supporting Fall Nation had brought this time.
Naturally, that Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial was considered the weakest among the nine people the Supporting Fall Nation had brought.
