4274 The Divine Fountain

Duan Ling Tian had been keeping a low profile since he entered the chaotic region in the inner area of the Divine Sanction Battlefield. It was a slaughter ground created from the intersection of three Realm Battlefields. However, despite keeping a low profile, he ran into many rudimentary Supreme Gods who provoked him. Needless to say, he killed all of them.

At this time, a person stood at the corner of a mountain peak watching Duan Ling Tian. He could not help but inhale sharply when he saw Duan Ling Tian easily killing a rudimentary Supreme God.

‘This person seems to have only become a rudimentary Supreme God recently, but he’s extremely strong. At the very least, he’s as strong as I am, an intermediate Supreme God.’

‘I don’t have the confidence to fight him. In fact, I feel threatened by him. If I didn’t experience it for myself, I wouldn’t have believed that an intermediate Supreme God would feel threatened by a rudimentary Supreme God. Whether my intuition is correct or not, there’s no need for me to provoke him. It’s not like I’ll gain anything from killing him. His spatial ring will likely self-destruct as well. At most, I’ll gain his prominent divine artifact. It’s not worth it at all,’ the intermediate Supreme God thought to himself, shaking his head before he left.

The intermediate Supreme God’s instinct told him that Duan Ling Tian was not easy to deal with so he left decisively. Unbeknownst to him, his instinct had just saved his life.

…

Meanwhile, after killing a rather strong rudimentary Supreme God, Duan Ling Tian frowned slightly and looked at the sky, feeling like something was amiss.

…

At the same time, the other Supreme Gods, followed by the Emperors of Gods who were a beat slower, on all the other Realm Battlefields, including the Divine Sanction Battlefield, looked at the sky as well.

Soon enough, the sky began to shake.

The Emperors of Gods were puzzled as they looked at the wind raging violently in the sky, dispersing the clouds.

“What’s going on?”

“What kind of phenomenon is this? I’ve never seen anything like this before.”

“I’ve been on the battlefield for 900 years, and this is the first time I’ve encountered something like this. What is it?”

On the other hand, a few older and knowledgeable Supreme Gods frowned slightly.

“Are the supreme powerhouses overseeing the Realm Battlefield going to make an announcement? Is there going to be a change to the rules?”

…

Unlike the few Supreme Gods who had experienced this or heard of this before, Duan Ling Tian, like many others, was clueless.

‘What’s going on? I’ve heard of anything like this before. Why is the sky like this?’

Duan Ling Tian stared at the sky with his mouth agape. It was his first time seeing such a phenomenon after spending decades on the Realm Battlefield so he was understandably baffled. Moreover, he had never heard of such a thing before.

When those below the realm of an Emperor of Gods finally discovered the anomaly in the sky, the sky was already returning to its original state.

Not long after that, an indifferent voice rang in all the Realm Battlefields.

“Instead of a decade, all three chaotic regions of the Realm Battlefields will stay open for seven decades. During the final three decades, the three chaotic regions will merge into one, becoming even more dangerous than before.”

After a brief pause, the voice continued to say, “We don’t simply change the rules on the Realm Battlefield, especially when there are only a hundred years left before it closes. However, when we do, it means that there are greater opportunities. After the merge of the three chaotic regions, you’ll all be given a new token that’s similar to your battle merit token. The new token will record your chaotic points. There’ll be a separate ranking system for all cultivation bases. For example, there’ll be a different ranking for rudimentary, intermediate, and advanced Lords of Gods. This applies to Emperors of Gods and Supreme Gods as well. The points you accumulate will determine your ranking. If you kill someone with the same cultivation base, you’ll be rewarded with a number of chaotic points. If you kill someone whose cultivation base is a level higher, the chaotic points will triple. If you kill someone whose cultivation base is two levels higher, you’ll receive ten times the number of chaotic points. Just like before, the higher the cultivation base of the person you kill, the more chaotic points you’ll receive. However, killing someone weaker than you will cost you chaotic points. If you kill someone whose cultivation base is two levels lower than yours will cost you three chaotic points; killing someone whose cultivation base is three levels lower will cost you ten chaotic points; killing someone whose cultivation base is four levels lower will cost you thirty chaotic points. The weaker the opponent you kill, the more chaotic points it’ll cost you. The final rankings will be decided a month before the Realm Battlefield closes. You’ll also be able to obtain points through fortuitous encounters and clearing secret realms. Those ranked in the top ten will be rewarded. Even those who ranked tenth will be rewarded with a drop from the divine fountain.”

At this time, Duan Ling Tian had already figured out that the voice belonged to a supreme powerhouse.

According to the supreme powerhouse, the chaotic region would stay open for seven decades instead of one decade. During the final three decades, all three chaotic regions would merge into one, creating an advanced version of the chaotic region. One’s rank would be determined by the number of chaotic points one accumulated, and those ranked in the top ten would be rewarded accordingly.

Duan Ling Tian searched his memories and discovered that he had never heard of the divine fountain before.

‘The divine fountain? What is that?’

‘Even those who are ranked tenth will be rewarded with a drop from the divine fountain? How precious is that? Is it more powerful than a drop of the supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy? Why are the supreme powerhouses so stingy? They should reward those ranked tenth with a drop of supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy at the very least,’ Duan Ling Tian complained inwardly, ‘That supreme powerhouse from that Ning clan was much more generous in comparison. Based on the rewards for those who ranked tenth, it’s likely that the rewards for those who ranked first won’t be worth more than two fragments of prime divine artifacts.’

After encountering the supreme powerhouse from the Sanction Land’s Ning clan, Duan Ling Tian no longer found the supreme powerhouses mysterious. Nonetheless, he still thought they were rather lofty and magnanimous. After all, in exchange for rescuing his direct descendant, the supreme powerhouse from the Ning clan compensated him with two fragments of prime divine artifacts.

If those in the know could hear Duan Ling Tian’s thoughts, they would have rebuked him for his ignorance. In the God Defying Land, just a drop from the divine fountain was worth more than ten drops of supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy.

After complaining about the supreme powerhouses’ lack of generosity, Duan Ling Tian continued to wonder inwardly, ‘I wonder how many supreme powerhouses are there?’

Since time immemorial, there were only 18 Realms of Gods. This meant that there were at least 18 supreme powerhouses.

‘I heard that in order to become the master of a Realm of Gods, another master has to die. After all, there can only be 18 Realms of Gods at a time. However, I’m sure there are more than 18 supreme powerhouses. Let’s just say there are a few supreme powerhouses overseeing one Realm Battlefield, considering that there are nine Realm Battlefields, there should be a few dozen supreme powerhouses at least…’

Duan Ling Tian had learned about this when he was in the Profound Energy Land.

‘I wonder if there are more supreme powerhouses than what I guessed. Are there a hundred supreme powerhouses? Their number is quite large. It seems like becoming a supreme powerhouse is not that big of a deal. Well, that’s unless one becomes the strongest supreme powerhouse…’

Soon enough, Duan Ling Tian realized that he had gotten carried away with his thoughts. If he continued his train of thought, he might even end up thinking that supreme powerhouses were not as powerful as he had thought. His fanciful thinking might even lead him to believe that he could become a supreme powerhouse before the Realm Battlefield closed.
