Chapter 496: Reaching the Top



Chapter 496: Reaching the Top

Translator: jinzeffect

The no.5 lookout island was a butterfly-shaped island and was a few hundred miles in size.

In the center of the lookout island, there was an iron tower that was a few thousand meters tall.

It was actually more like an iron pillar with a pavilion. Probably only monarch-class factions could afford such a structure. After all, to smelt an iron pillar that was a few thousand meters in length couldn’t be an easy task.

A large scale teleportation platform on the lookout island had lit up with radiance and close to a thousand individuals appeared at the same time.

“This is a lookout island?” Li Fuchen’s awareness could cover over 1000 miles and with a single sweep, he could see the entire lookout island vividly in his mind.

“There is nothing special on the lookout island, except that iron tower and the astonishing array that envelops the entire lookout island.” Li Fuchen was certain that the iron tower in the center of the lookout island must be a killer weapon with overwhelming power. It was possibly as powerful as Primary Sea Realm monarchs. As for the array that enveloped the lookout island, it should be a class 7 array, otherwise, it was hard to protect the lookout island. This place was the vast sea and it was the domain of the sea beasts.

Rumble!

Outside the lookout island, there were raging waves. The sea water that should be lower than the lookout island had surged a few hundred meters to a thousand meters tall. The waves constantly smashed on the array and in those waves, there were innumerable sea beasts.

There were class 4 sea beasts, class 5 sea beasts, and class 6 sea beasts. There was a giant shadow at the back of the sea beasts that was as massive as an island. Even if everyone were fools, they knew it was a demonic king.

The demonic king might not be participating in the battle, but when the sea beasts fought, they required his commands.

At the top of the iron tower, an imposing figure appeared. It was a Primary Sea Realm monarch.

With a wave of the hand, the array surged and two giant screens appeared above the lookout island.

“The tokens on you will react to how many sea beasts you have slain and how many contribution points you have obtained in real time. Those with the most contribution points shall appear on the Beast Slaying Rankings. Activate your token’s power and fuse it into the Beast Slaying Rankings.”

(TL note: I changed Beast Slaying Ranking to Beast Slaying Rankings)

The imposing figure’s voice echoed throughout the island.

“Yes!”

Be it the disciples or the elders, all of them used a drop of blood to refine the tokens and poured their qi into the token. Their illusory tokens flew into the two Beast Slaying Rankings.

In the next moment, numerous names appeared on the Beast Slaying Rankings. Behind the names were numbers, but now, everyone’s number was 0.

Right at this moment, the rankings of the two Beast Slaying Rankings started to change.

On the Major Beast Slaying Rankings, ranked no.1 was a person called Yuan Long and his number at the back was 189.

On the Minor Beast Slaying Rankings, ranked no.1 was Tie Chunqiu, and the number at the back was 18.

It meant that these two individuals had obtained 189 contribution coins and 18 contribution coins respectively.

“It is Senior Yuan Long. Such fearsome strength to instantly obtain 189 contribution coins. How many sea beasts has he killed?!”

“It is normal. Senior Yuan Long is one of the three greatest direct monarch-class disciples. Apart from those two emperor-class disciples, no one is comparable to him.”

“Who is Tie Chunqiu? If he is on the no.1 of the Minor Beast Slaying Rankings, he must not be underestimated after he progressed to the Battle Spirit Realm.”

“Senior, Tie Chunqiu is my Spring Autumn Kingdom’s 7-star prodigy with a perception of 72 points.”

“Perception of 72 points? That is indeed incredible. Monarch-class disciples’ perceptions are normally around 65 points, those beyond the 70 points mark are all well-known people.” Some of the inner sect disciples nodded.

“Have the other lookout islands started fighting?” While observing the Beast Slaying Rankings, Li Fuchen squinted his eyes.

The top ten ranks of the Major Beast Slaying Rankings were basically occupied by direct monarch-class disciples, apart from the Outer Sect Grand Elder Wang Kui.

Outer sect elders were positions assumed by inner sect disciples and direct disciples who had reached the age of 100.

Direct monarch-class disciples wouldn’t assume positions of outer sect elders. They would only be appointed as inner sect elders after they progressed to the Primary Sea Realm.

In terms of status, be it direct monarch-class disciples or inner sect monarch-class disciples, they were superior to outer sect elders.

After all, monarch-class disciples were future Primary Sea Realm monarchs.

While there might not even be a single outer sect elder among 100 outer sect elders that would progress to the Primary Sea Realm.

The Major Beast Slaying Rankings had closed to 7000 individuals while the Minor Beast Slaying Rankings had less than 1000 individuals.

Those who could enter the Red Rainbow Sect were basically 6-star bone frames. After entering the Red Rainbow Sect, 6-star bone frames would normally progress to the Battle Spirit Realm within ten or twenty years. Hence, the number of Reincarnation Realm disciples were several times lesser than Battle Spirit Realm disciples.

The changes in the Minor Beast Slaying Rankings were very drastic. In just a short moment, the top ten ranks had also been occupied by outer sect monarch-class disciples.

The Violet Flower Kingdom’s Bai Lingshuang and Hai Wuya were also in the rankings.

“Go out and fight then!”

After everyone activated the token’s power and fused it into the Beast Slaying Rankings, the imposing figure on the iron tower said in a loud voice.

Swish Swish Swish Swish...

Close to 1000 individuals, including Li Fuchen, flew to the beach of the no.5 lookout island.

After exiting the array, everyone started to kill.

“White Rainbow Saber Art.”

Sikong Zhan drew a snow-white long saber and cleaved with the saber. The sea split open and at least a dozen class 5 sea beasts were slain by the saber light. In an instant, Sikong Zhan’s ranking rose to the top 100.

“Green Cloud Net!”

Ling Yijian had also unsheathed his sword. When the green longsword was brandished, a net-like sword light had slain eight class 4 sea beasts.

Swish!

Ling Yijian’s ranking had risen to the top 200.

“It is truly infuriating to be compared with others. These people are killing the sea beasts at an extremely fast speed. Only the top ten individuals on the Minor Beast Slaying Rankings would be rewarded with contribution coins. Only the top hundred Major Beast Slaying Rankings would be rewarded with contribution coins. We better stick to killing sea beasts to earn contribution coins instead! Don’t even think about the rewards.”

When some of the outer sect disciples saw how fast Sikong Zhan and others were killing sea beasts, they felt agonized.

The no.5 lookout island was a few hundred miles in size. Everyone split up to prevent situations where they have to fight over the sea beasts.

At the sky above a spacious beach, Li Fuchen brandished his sword.

Li Fuchen didn’t execute the Thousand Incineration and had executed the first move of the Cloud Flame Thousand Incineration, Cloud Incineration instead.

After all, the Thousand Incineration used up too much qi and in a war, conservation of qi was the most important.

A flame cloud-shaped sword light, scattered in all directions.

Boom Boom Boom...

The sea wave exploded and the water evaporated into steam. All of the sea beasts had ruptured while their flesh were charred.

A single brandish of the sword had killed nearly forty class 4 sea beasts.

“The sea beasts are massive in size. It isn’t as fast as when I killed class 4 demons.” Li Fuchen frowned.

Class 4 demons might be stronger than class 4 sea beasts. Only elite class 4 sea beasts would be comparable with class 4 demons. But sea beasts were massive in size and occupied a large space, while class 4 demons were normally only ten or twenty feet in size.

Li Fuchen’s sword art didn’t envelop such a large range.

Of course, it was mainly due to the sea water’s isolation, causing the sword art’s power to be reduced greatly.

After all, the sea was the sea beasts’ home ground and humans were surely at the disadvantage.

Despite the case, Li Fuchen still killed around 40 sea beasts in a single sword slash, causing his ranking to rise to the top 30.

There might be countless sea beasts, but not every region would have a large concentration of sea beasts. There were some regions that were very broad and only had a few sea beasts active. Hence, to kill a group of sea beasts would also depend on opportunities.

But to Li Fuchen, it didn’t matter if there were any opportunities. With the Cloud Flame Thousand Incineration at the trance stage and with the Cloud Flame Thousand Incineration Sword intent, a single brandish of the sword would instantly kill everything, be it class 4 sea beasts or class 5 sea beasts. None would survive.

In just 15 minutes, Li Fuchen reached the top.

His contribution points was at 250 and the second place was none other than Tie Chunqiu who was at 242.
