Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“The top force of the Great Thousand World?” Hearing the Scarlet Flame Deity’s words, Mu Chen, Luo Li, and the others were shocked and looked at each other. It seemed that they had never heard of this force. Was it even stronger than the five ancient clans and the famous supreme forces in the world?

Mu Chen could not help but ask, “Who exactly is the Palace Master of Great Thousand Palace?” If this figure can create such a terrible force, was its master also bound to be the top existence in the Great Thousand World?

The Scarlet Flame Deity shook his head and answered, “There is no Palace Master of Great Thousand Palace now. There was one in the ancient times, the top Sovereign in the ancient age, the Immortal Emperor.”

“Immortal Emperor?!” Upon hearing this name, Mu Chen’s pupils shrank slightly. He had heard about him from the Heavenly Emperor, and knew that the Immortal Emperor was the last practitioner of the Primordial Immortal Body. However, he didn’t think that he had even created such a powerful force as the Great Thousand Palace.

Ling Xi, however, felt something was amiss and asked, “But why do we hear so little about the number one force in the Great Thousand World?”

The Scarlet Flame Deity chuckled. “Because this force will truly exist only when the Extraterritorial Race launches an aggressive attack again. In times of peace, the Great Thousand Palace is just a symbol.”

Understanding dawned on the four. So this Great Thousand Palace was established specially to resist the Extraterritorial Race. However, how could it become the top force in Great Thousand World then?

“According to the rules passed down from the ancient times, basically, in the Great Thousand World, the vast majority of Heavenly Sovereigns will be recorded in the Great Thousand Palace’s records. After examination, they will become officials of the palace.

“Those Heavenly Sovereigns who stepped into the Divine Rank will be elders of the Great Thousand Palace, but if the world is not facing a crisis, these officials and elders need not contribute to the Great Thousand Palace.

“Tell me, the Great Thousand Palace who has this line-up, are they considered the top force of the Great Thousand World?” The Scarlet Flame Deity looked at them playfully.

The corners of Mu Chen’s mouth twitched. So this was how the top force had originated. However, if he thought about it, he could also feel the horror of the Great Thousand Palace, because in a certain sense, it was more like a Sovereigns alliance of the Great Thousand World. When the world was facing a crisis, it integrated all the forces of the world against foreign enemies.

At any time, the strength of unity was the most powerful.

In the face of such a powerful threat like the Extraterritorial Race, the Great Thousand World must gather all its forces in order to be able to counter it. From this point of view, the Immortal Emperor who founded the Great Thousand Palace was indeed far-sighted.

“Although it is symbolic now, you should not underestimate it. Its strength is still beyond your imagination, but the Great Thousand Palace will not expose it. What’s more, the Great Thousand Palace’s status is incredibly esteemed in the world. Even the five ancient clans are very polite to it. Journeying in this world, you will encounter some supreme powers. The title of Great Thousand Palace Official is more respectable than that of an Elder of the Five Ancient Clans.” When it came to speaking about officials, the Scarlet Flame Deity was a little smug. Obviously, he should also be one of the Great Thousand Palace officials.

Speaking of this, the Scarlet Flame Deity glanced at Mu Chen and said, “If you were a Great Thousand Palace official, even the Budur Ancient Clan would not be arrogant towards you.”

Hearing this, Mu Chen shook his head in exasperation. If he wanted to become a Great Thousand Palace official, he would have to be a Heavenly Sovereign. If I really had a Heavenly Sovereign’s power, would I still have to be fearful of the Budur Ancient Clan?

The Scarlet Flame Deity seemed to know what Mu Chen was thinking as he smiled and said, “To become a Great Thousand Palace official, one does not necessarily have to be a Heavenly Sovereign…”

“Oh?” Mu Chen was rather surprised. Was there another way? The Great Thousand Palace had a transcendental position in the world, and it would be beneficial if he could become one of its officials without restraint.

The Scarlet Flame Deity pointed to the Demon Slayer Ranking. Mu Chen looked in the direction he was pointing. He had been stunned by the Great Thousand Palace before, but now, spiritual light flickered on the stone tablet, forming many names.

The first striking name was at the top of the rankings, where there was a purple-gold colored name. Under the sunlight, it emitted a chilling aura.

Demon Slayer King, Qin Tian.

The name was like a king at the top of this Demon Slayers Ranking. Throughout the city, countless people looked at it with admiration in their eyes. Under the Demon Slayer King, Qin Tian, there was a myriad of sparkling words. If one looked carefully, one could see a lot of names.

High Rank Demon Slayer, Liu Difeng.

High Rank Demon Slayer, Lyu Shan.

…

Middle Rank Demon Slayer, Lu Lingyu.

…

Low Rank Demon Slayer, Lu Shu.

…

Countless names were engraved on the Demon Slayers Ranking as spiritual light occasionally flickered. More names appeared constantly as the ranks before their names changed.

Mu Chen gazed at this Demon Slayers Ranking for a long time, then looked at the Scarlet Flame Deity, as he did not seem to understand its role.

“Those who come to the Holy Gulf Continent are all able to obtain a Demon Slayer Token in the Great Thousand Palace. For every member of the Extraterritorial Race slain, they are able to obtain a certain number of Demons-Slayed points, which can be exchanged for many treasures in Great Thousand Palace. As long as you obtain enough Demons-Slayed points, you can even obtain Rare Super Powers and top 20 Sovereign Celestial Bodies!”

“You can even exchange for Rare Super Powers?” Mu Chen couldn’t help but be moved. He knew that these Rare Super Powers would not be one of those 36 volumes of Rare Super Powers. However, even an ordinary Rare Super Power was powerful enough. Most Heavenly Sovereigns might not even possess them. Now, the Great Thousand Palace allowed them to exchange their Demons-Slayed points for such treasures. How would this not tempt others?

There were also the top 20 Sovereign Celestial Bodies, which were even more incredible. After all, this level of supreme Sovereign Celestial Bodies was too rare.

“According to the rules of the Great Thousand Palace, as long as you have 1,000 Demons-Slayed points, you will be able to upgrade from a Low Rank Demon Slayer to a Middle Rank. Three thousand points would be a High Rank. Even if you are not a Heavenly Sovereign, you will still be given a title of Great Thousand World Official.”

Hearing this, realization then dawned on Mu Chen. So this is what the Scarlet Flame Deity meant earlier. As long as one had enough Demons-Slayed points, they could still become a Great Thousand World Official.

However, it seemed that it was not easy to get 3,000 points. There were no more than 20 people on the stone tablet who had reached High Rank Demon Slayer.

“According to the rules, killing an Extraterritorial Sovereign who is a Lower Earthly Sovereign gets you 50 points. An Upper Earthly Sovereign gets you 100 points, while a Complete Earthly Sovereign is 200 points.

“It’s 3,000 points for a Demon Emperor, and 5,000 for a Demon Emperor with a Celestial Heavenly Sovereign’s power. Killing a Heavenly Demon Emperor would get you 10,000 Demons-Slayed points.”

When they heard the Scarlet Flame Deity’s casual words, the four of them were stunned. They knew that it was not easy to get the Demons-Slayed points, but they still didn’t think it would be difficult to this extent…

According to this calculation, if one wanted to upgrade from Low Rank Demon Slayer to Middle Rank, they would have to kill 20 Extraterritorial Lower Earthly Sovereigns or ten Extraterritorial Upper Earthly Sovereigns. To become a High Rank Demon Slayer, they would have to annihilate 15 Extraterritorial Complete Earthly Sovereigns…

Extraterritorial Sovereigns of this rank were no weaklings with zero resistance. How could they kill them easily?

From this, one could see how difficult it was to upgrade. No wonder there were only 20 people on the stone tablet, and it was not clear how long it had taken them to achieve this level.

Mu Chen wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and asked, “How many Demons-Slayed points do you need to get to the level of Demon Slayer King?”

“Demon Slayer King…” The Scarlet Flame Deity sighed and replied, “It’s simple, just 10,000 Demons-Slayed points. You can get that by killing a Heavenly Demon Emperor.”

Mu Chen and the three could feel their scalps growing numb. Killing a Heavenly Demon Emperor? To put it simply, that level of existence was basically at the pinnacle. Losing one, no matter whether it was the Great Thousand World or the Extraterritorial Race, was probably not a small blow.

Luo Li could not help but ask, “Did Elder Qin Tian kill a Heavenly Demon Emperor then?”

“Qin Tian…” Just speaking this name, the Scarlet Flame Deity’s tone held admiration. “Many years ago, when Qin Tian was just as young as you, he brought a team to the Holy Gulf Continent. However, they encountered the Extraterritorial Race. His entire team was annihilated. Only he managed to escape.

“After that, this guy stayed in the Holy Gulf Continent for 200 years, and during that time, whenever there was any news of the Extraterritorial Race, he went mad and charged over.

“During these 200 years, he broke through and became a Heavenly Sovereign. However, he was tragically transported by space windstorms to the Extraterritorial Race’s territory. When everyone thought he would not be able to return, this guy miraculously came back. He even brought back the remains of a Demon Emperor…

“After that, he became the first Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand Palace since ancient times. So far no one has surpassed him.” When the Scarlet Flame Deity finished speaking, the four people were utterly stunned. A long time later, they couldn’t help but look at each other, with shock and disbelief surging in their eyes.

Such illustrious battle results. This Demon Slayer King… was incredibly ruthless, indeed!
