Chapter 339: Demon Extermination
On this day, the Demon Extermination Monument, located in the central area of the Sacred Abyss City, suddenly began to tremble violently.
"What's going on?"
"What happened?"
"Look at the Demon Extermination Monument!"
This shaking immediately caught the attention of countless powerful individuals in the city, as it was the first time they had seen such an unusual movement from the monument.
"Swish!"
Just as people were astonished, a dazzling golden light suddenly appeared on the monument. As soon as this golden light emerged, it ascended to the top of the monument, spreading out like a rising golden sun. The light filled the entire city, causing all the demon exterminators to feel a sense of oppression.
After a long while, when the golden light faded, everyone's gaze turned towards the monument.
"This... this is..."
"A new Demon King has been born!"
"..."
When people saw the characters on the monument, the entire city fell from its initial uproar into a dead silence. The "Demon King, Qin Tian" at the top of the monument had been moved to second place, and at the very top was a new line of golden characters:
"Demon King, Xiao Tian, Four!"
"Wow!"
When they saw this line, the entire city erupted in an uproar.
"It's the new top superpower Heavenly Court's leader, the disciple of the ancient Heavenly Emperor, Heavenly Emperor Xiao Tian!"
"Who would have thought that the Heavenly Emperor could also slay a Demon Emperor, equivalent to a Saint Heavenly Sovereign!"
"And he killed four Demon Emperors! What level of cultivation does this Heavenly Emperor possess?"
At this moment, everyone was shocked by Xiao Tian's monumental feat. However, they didn't know that Xiao Tian had merely used a clever trick. The remnants of four Demon Emperors were not even equivalent to a single true Demon Emperor. Nonetheless, some wise individuals suspected that Xiao Tian might have merely wiped out the remnants of the Demon Emperors.
After all, it was known that in the ancient Sacred Abyss, there were remnants of four Demon Emperors. But they wisely kept their thoughts to themselves, not wanting to offend a Saint Heavenly Sovereign.
When the people of the Great Thousand Tower in Sacred Abyss City reported this to the Great Thousand Palace, the palace directly granted Xiao Tian the title of Demon King. But that was a matter for later.
Meanwhile, in the Demon Domain.
This territory, originally part of the Great Thousand World, was just as vast as the current Great Thousand World. It was a dark world, with dim sun and moon emitting a gloomy light.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a wave transmitted from the Great Thousand World, entering this territory. Then, a divine sense began to circulate in the air. Only those at the Demon Emperor level could perceive this divine sense.
"What? A new Demon King has appeared in the Great Thousand World?"
"Did our Holy Clan lose a Demon Emperor? And four at that?"
"..."
Upon checking this information, the Demon Emperors were immediately shocked. But soon, after communicating among themselves, they realized that no Demon Emperors had fallen.
"If no one has fallen, then it must be the remnants of the sealed Demon Emperors that were eradicated!"
"The people of the Great Thousand World are still so cowardly and boastful. They don't have the ability to kill a Demon Emperor, yet they claim the achievements of ancient powerhouses as their own."
"This person is nothing special, not worth excessive attention."
"..."
After learning the truth, they began to mock.
Xiao Tian was unaware of the external situation, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. At his level, titles like Demon King were mere vanity. What he truly valued were the tangible demon extermination points.
While others were receiving inheritances, Xiao Tian continued his actions on the Sacred Abyss Continent, taking the lives of many outer realm evil races. According to the rules, killing a lower-level Earthly Sovereign strength evil race earned 50 points; an upper-level Earthly Sovereign strength evil race, 100 points; and a great complete Earthly Sovereign, 200 points.
Ordinary Demon Emperors gave 3,000 points, Profound Demon Emperors 5,000 points, and Heavenly Demon Emperors 10,000 points. Although killing a Heavenly Demon Emperor was difficult, eliminating ordinary Earthly Sovereign-level evil races was easy.
After clearing the ancient Sacred Abyss of outer realm evil races, Xiao Tian's demon extermination points rose from 40,000 to over 86,000. With so many points, he could exchange for numerous treasures.
He exchanged many top-ranking supreme body cultivation methods for the people of the Heavenly Court and also acquired many heavenly treasures, including several exotic fires. These fires were essential for cultivating fire attribute supreme bodies and were bought to enhance his cultivation.
Seeing the great benefits of demon extermination points, Xiao Tian dispatched an avatar to the front lines between the Great Thousand World and the outer realm evil race territories. Any invading outer realm evil race with Earthly Sovereign-level strength was mostly killed by Xiao Tian. Once, his avatar even infiltrated the outer realm evil race territory, secretly killing many of them, including several Demon Emperors, gaining tens of thousands of demon extermination points in one go.
However, Xiao Tian's avatar only did this once. Being the enemy's territory, getting trapped by a group of Heavenly Demon Emperors could lead to unforeseen dangers, something Xiao Tian wanted to avoid.
Although this operation was done covertly, the outer realm evil race still found out through their spies in the Great Thousand World. From then on, Xiao Tian and the Heavenly Court were placed on the outer realm evil race's kill list. But, being located in the heart of the Great Thousand World and constantly guarded by Xiao Tian's avatar, the outer realm evil race had no chance to act.
To retaliate against the Great Thousand World, the outer realm evil race launched several invasions, but they were repelled by the Great Thousand World powerhouses, suffering significant losses, especially due to Xiao Tian.
In recent years, Xiao Tian had not forgotten to enhance his strength. By absorbing large amounts of exotic fire and a Saint-grade elixir, Xiao Tian's cultivation had reached the mid-peak of the Saint Heavenly Sovereign level. He sensed that by uniting his three bodies, he could achieve near-Dominator level strength.
However, Xiao Tian did not reveal this. Without being certain of advancing to the true Dominator realm, he had no intention of exposing himself completely. After all, the Heavenly Evil God's power surpassed ordinary Dominator realms, and being only a near-Dominator was still far from enough.
