Afterwards, everyone began to tally up the Life Devouring Beasts in their Space Rings. After seven days of hunting, the several dozen Primordial realm experts had obtained over fifty thousand Divine King realm Life Devouring Beasts.
On average, each person had killed over a thousand Life Devouring Beasts.
Of course, this was only an average. In reality, the leaders of the ten sacred halls had killed the most Life Devouring Beasts. Not only were they the most powerful, but the senses of their souls covered a greater area as well. They possessed an advantage in both hunting and searching.
As for the weaker vice-leaders, such as Bing Yuan, who was a First Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime, they naturally killed much fewer Life Devouring Beasts.
There were even some vice-leaders who were no more powerful than peak Divine King realm Life Devouring Beasts after being suppressed by the Two World Mountain due to their weaker strength. After seven days of hunting, they had all suffered some wounds that were not particularly heavy.
Even a small portion of their vitality had been devoured.
"Fifty thousand? That's more than enough …" The Darkstar Emperor muttered. He then led everyone back to the imperial city of the Darkstar Race.
As soon as they returned, all the leaders and vice-leaders entered seclusion, including the Darkstar Emperor.
They were unable to recover any energy during the seven days of hunting in the Two World Mountain, so they were extremely drained. They were all recovering as quickly as they could.
However, although they had left, the Two World Mountain remained in an uproar. Perhaps it was because too many Divine King realm Life Devouring Beasts had died this time, but the Primordial realm Life Devouring Beasts in the Two World Mountain gathered at the border between the Two World Mountain and the Dark Star World, refusing to leave for a very long time. Their colossal figures were hidden in the mist as they constantly roared out furiously, alarming all the cultivators and Darkstar clansmen in the surroundings. It was as if they were afraid that the terrifying Primordial realm Life Devouring Beasts would charge out and slaughter them.
This matter caused a huge uproar in the Dark Star World. There were even some Darkstar clansmen who did not know what had happened, so they reported the strange happenings in the Two World Mountain to the ten sacred halls in fear and trepidation.
After seven days, the Primordial realm Life Devouring Beasts finally dispersed. Very soon, the Two World Mountain returned to peace.
However, on the second day of peace, the Darkstar Emperor, the supreme expert of the Darkstar race, hid his presence and silently entered the depths of Two World Mountain.
Before long, a miserable cry rang out from the depths of the Two World Mountain. It was filled with despair and fear, as if it was the sound of a final struggle before death.
As the scream rang out, the powerful presence of the Darkstar race rapidly expanded in Two World Mountain. In an instant, it filled the entire mountain range.
Immediately, the Two World Mountain that had just calmed down fell into chaos again. The Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beasts hidden everywhere roared out furiously as they gathered from all directions furiously.
However, when they arrived at the scene of the incident, the owner of the territory was nowhere to be found, only leaving behind a ground full of green blood.
…
As the day of the great ritual drew closer and closer, the entire Darkstar race was clearly busier than usual. Some of the sharper people could even sense a sacred and heavy atmosphere, silently enveloping the entire royal capital.
The various preparations for the day of the great ritual were handled by people from the Darkstar Divine Hall, including the construction of the altar, the preparation of the offerings, and so on. These trivial matters did not require the ten divine halls to deal with them.
The several tens of thousands of Divine King Life Devouring Beasts that had been killed had all been taken away. The people in charge of the great ritual would deal with them further.
Moreover, even the essence blood of the divine beasts that had been distributed to the ten divine halls and all the cities of the Darkstar race had been taken away by the Darkstar Emperor after they had been completely converted. They were going to be used on the day of the great ritual.
The Hundred Saints City and all the cultivators in the outside world were under the strict supervision of the Darkstar race. Out of the ten armies of the Darkstar race, one of them personally stood guard in the Hundred Saints City. At the same time, all the people in the city were restricted from leaving.
This time, as the protector of the Hundred Saints City, the Fifth Hall Master did not stand up for the Hundred Saints City because this order came from the Darkstar Emperor.
Obviously, in the eyes of the Darkstar Emperor, although the Hundred Saints City's strength was much weaker than the Darkstar Emperor's and it was impossible for them to have any influence on the great ritual, the great ritual this time was really too important. In the process of the great ritual, the slightest mistake was not allowed. The Darkstar Emperor's action was obviously to eliminate all possible hidden dangers.
In addition to the Hundred Saints City, all the cultivators from the outside world who were active in the Darkstar Realm were all locked up in their respective cities. The Darkstar Race adopted a method of confinement for these people. From now on, until the end of the great ritual, no cultivator from the outside world could leave their city.
At the same time, the Darkstar Race sent out many Divine King Realm experts to form patrol squads. They patrolled the entire territory of the Darkstar Race. As soon as they discovered any cultivators from the outside world, they would forcefully imprison them in the nearby cities. Anyone who did not cooperate would be killed without mercy.
The actions of the Darkstar Race immediately caused all the cultivators in the outside world to panic. Even though all the cultivators who had been confined could still move about in the city, they were all uneasy. Their hearts were in turmoil. They had no idea what had happened to the Darkstar Race.
A small number of well-informed cultivators from the outside world found it difficult to calm down when they learned that the Darkstar race was preparing for the Grand Ceremony. They were unsure whether the Darkstar race had confined them in the city to prevent them from causing trouble, or if there was some other purpose to it.
"I've heard that some demonic cultivators in the Saints' World will slaughter large numbers of people when they carry out certain rituals …"
"Do you think the Darkstar Race captured us one by one and brought us to the city to use the Devil Path's methods to sacrifice us …?"
.....
As rumours spread everywhere and coupled with the Darkstar Race's confinement methods, more and more people believed that the Darkstar Race wanted to sacrifice them.
This immediately caused all the cultivators in the outside world to despair. They felt like they were doomed.
However, not everyone was willing to accept their fate. As the saying went, wherever there was oppression, there would be resistance. After being confined like prisoners by the Darkstar Race, a few cultivators from the outside world finally began to band together and prepare to resist.
This immediately caused the city lords of the various cities to feel troubled. Although most of the cultivators from the outside world were not powerful, with only a small portion of them being at the Divine King Realm, there were many of them. Although they were unable to pose a threat to the guards of any city, they were still a problem.
If it were any other time, such a small matter would not be a problem at all. They could deal with it with a raise of their hand, but right now was the crucial day of the great ritual. At such a sensitive time, any unstable factor could be magnified infinitely.
"The emperor has given strict orders that we are not to kill the cultivators from the outside world in the cities, or we really want to kill them all and get rid of them once and for all." Many city lords sighed in the thirty-six cities of the Darkstar Race.
The cultivators from the outside world in the cities seemed to have lost control. Naturally, the seventh divine hall, who was responsible for all matters of the Darkstar Race, learned about it. As a result, the hall master of the seventh divine hall personally visited the Darkstar Divine Hall to seek an audience with the Darkstar Emperor. He proposed to kill all the cultivators from the outside world and eliminate all potential threats.
