Fully Exposed [Two Chapters Combined]
"Am I seeing things? There looks like the head of a Third Realm demon in that armored vehicle!" someone said gravely.
Subsequently, a young man from Kunling even had tears in his eyes because he recognized the old demon's identity.
"His Mo Xi, with white hair and green eyes. He's an extremely ferocious old monster; my grandfather died at his hands ten years ago!"
The image of Golden Sheep pulling a cart has sparked heated discussion.
Among those severed heads were descendants of the Silver Family from the plateau, whose ancestors once included Heavenly Fiend, though the clan had since fallen into decline.
Which team achieved this result? Many people were very surprised; the gains were enormous.
Jin Xiang remained calm and quietly delivered the goods.
While people were talking about it, it suddenly turned around and left again, because it hadn't finished transporting the goods yet.
Even if the spoils are lost, it doesn't matter as long as you have Memory Crystal, which can prove that you successfully slew the demon.
Those in positions of power simply need this kind of directly visible influence.
A huge pile of demon heads lay there, their impact overwhelming and quite intimidating.
"Hiss! A disciple from the Beyond the Mundane has actually killed a great demon of the Fourth Realm! This feat is truly terrifying. Is this defying the heavens?"
This time, everyone on every path delivered an extraordinary performance, with some of their achievements eliciting gasps of amazement.
"Thinking about it carefully, this is quite normal. There are some seeds in Beyond the Mundane and Esoteric Sect who are said to have had sudden enlightenment at the age of three or four. By now, their level of attainment should be very high."
As team after team returned, the area became lively, filled with discussions about their impressive victories.
People were amazed, because many of the "Famous Fiend" on the plateau had been killed by the young man.
"Holy crap, Flying Sky Rat has been killed! That guy was elusive, able to hide in the dark clouds and stealthily move about. He even committed several murders in Kunlun City before successfully escaping. But this time, he's finally been brought to justice!"
Soon, people learned that these were the spoils of war of Tang Yutian, God Seed of the Esoteric Sect.
"As expected of Sun Taichu's last disciple, someone saw from afar that the demons Cui Chonghe killed were of incredibly high quality, enough to exchange for at least two portions of Auspicious Beast Blood!"
Many people are incredibly envious; it's truly incomparable.
With such a privileged family background, a master who is a giant on the Immortal Path, and himself being exceptionally talented among his peers, he is undoubtedly a winner in life.
Then, many people in the distance gasped in astonishment as they saw Su Shiyun from the Beyond-Mundane Immortal Land take out a mountain of spoils from her storage bracelet.
"Such a fairy-like woman, with fair skin, a beautiful face, long legs, and such great abilities, if I could marry her, my descendants wouldn't have to struggle at all."
"Wake up, don't bring your dreams into reality."
"What, can you take away my right to dream?"
Amidst the clamor and gasps of amazement, Jin Xiang returned, bringing with him another armored cart laden with spoils of war.
Immediately, the Divine Capital of the people nearby changed. Was it "buying goods"? Who had chopped off heads and was hauling away cartload after cartload?
This is outrageous! How many demons were killed? Who was responsible?
No one believed that this belonged to a single team, because there were too many heads, and most importantly, many heads of "Famous Fiend" had been discovered.
"Jin Xiang, are you playing for three or four strong teams at the same time?"
The Golden Sheep smiled faintly, strode along with an air of elegance, relaxed yet composed.
"Old Jin, answer me quickly!" someone shouted.
"One!" Jin Xiang said succinctly, unwilling to Say More, because it found it troublesome. If it were really a person, it would probably be surrounded and unable to escape.
Even so, everyone gasped in shock.
One team, how could they kill so many?!
"Judging from these heads and the identities of those Famous Fiend, this team should be at the Second Realm. Are they that powerful? I feel they're capable of exchanging for three or four portions of the Auspicious Blood Great Medicine, right?"
According to the rules, when anyone kills a demon, if the opponent is lower than their own cultivation level, it doesn't count; only those of the same or higher cultivation level are counted.
"Hiss! There's a Quasi-Demon Seed's head inside! I've seen his portrait; Heavenly Prodigy. To be precise, he was already a true Demon Seed, but he wasn't chosen back then due to bad luck!"
"His status and position are equivalent to Li Qingxu on the Immortal Path!"
"Shh!" someone quickly stopped him.
Many people looked at him strangely. This guy was actually bluffing like that; did he have a death wish?
The man immediately regretted his words. If the person in question were here, or if anyone else from Cao Qianqiu's faction heard him, he would be in deep trouble, and might even die on the spot.
Fortunately, those people weren't nearby.
All the teams returned and began a quick and efficient inventory of the spoils.
Sure enough, the atmosphere here rose again, with everyone eagerly anticipating the distribution of various rewards.
"Qiu Long has killed twelve demons of the same level, demonstrating exceptional skill. He is hereby awarded a superior Heavenly Light Force Manual."
"Lu Xu, slay the demon..."
People gasped in amazement.
Soon, the battle results of the Near Immortal Seed were tallied, and the announcement of rewards caused a huge stir.
Sun Jingxiao, a disciple of the Beyond the Mundane Pure Land, can obtain 1.8 portions of Auspicious Beast Blood by exchanging his Actual Combat Record.
This person started with a "trump card," outshining all the previous winners' rewards.
Fortunately, not all Immortal Seed or God Seed achieve such high results.
"Li Bai, you are hereby rewarded with a piece of Auspicious Beast Blood!"
Li Qingxu himself did not appear, but had someone else collect the reward on his behalf. However, the person distributing the reward knew who the rightful recipient was and did not even bother to carefully verify the Memory Crystal.
At this moment, Li Qingxu was walking around in a different guise, feeling very relaxed and State of Mind peace. Otherwise, he would have been carrying far too much on his shoulders.
He has regained his confidence. Despite a series of defeats, he does not wallow in self-pity. He is determined to rebuild from the ashes and does not lament the wasted years of his life.
"I will eventually break free from my cocoon and transform into a butterfly; in the future, I will pave the way!" he encouraged himself.
The Li Household's representative in charge of this area was extremely old and of very high status. His expression was complex; he wanted to say, "Child, is it possible that your master's saying about 'destruction before construction' was mocking the losers?"
Since Cao Qianqiu had always been dominant and had never been defeated in his youth, why would he need to study the method of "Break-and-Establish"?
"Li Qingyue, three portions of Auspicious Beast Blood!"
Instantly, the place erupted in cheers. She was the most outstanding performer among all the characters who appeared, and she received the most rewards.
Then, people saw this Near Immortal Seed from the Pure Land. Although her white robes were stained with blood, it added a unique kind of beauty to her, making her stunningly beautiful and giving people a sense of transcendence, like a banished immortal who had experienced tribulations in the mortal world.
"This is the fairy godmother of my dreams, truly! I swear, I'd give up a thousand years of my lifespan just to marry her for even a single day!"
"This is outrageous! She alone possesses three portions of Auspicious Beast Blood, is exceptionally beautiful, and has such high skills. Moreover, she dares to engage in bloody battles. I wish my Lineage's genealogy included this fairy!"
"Fairy Qing Yue, if your great wish is to Near-Immortal Truth Seeking, I am willing to follow you by your side for the rest of my life and fight for you!" someone shouted directly.
"Brother, let's be realistic. This method won't work, because the line of people willing to follow her stretches all the way to Kunlun City."
Anyone could see that Li Qingyue had truly fought a bloody battle in this great war; otherwise, she wouldn't be covered in blood and have such a battle-worn look.
Soon, people learned that in addition to slaying demons, Li Qingyue had also discovered a hidden stronghold of the Demon King Court. She reported it immediately, during which time she was chased and nearly died.
"Wu Yaozu, 2.3 portions of Auspicious Beast Blood!"
Upon hearing this, Little Wu was initially pleased, but then calmed down, realizing that someone was taller than him, and a woman at that. He was dissatisfied with his performance.
However, since no one had heard of him, it immediately caused a commotion.
"Who is this Yellow Hair?!" someone asked.
Wu Yaozu has short, golden hair and striking, angular features. While not conventionally handsome, he possesses a striking and unforgettable air.
"He's a disciple of the Mountain River Academy. Now the old guys in Kunling are overjoyed. Look over there, those old monsters' wrinkled faces have all smoothed out, and they're smiling like old sunflowers."
Soon, Little Wu became even more unhappy because Ming Ge's rival, Immortal Seed of an opposing Lineage with a superior battle record.
"Cui Chonghe, reward three portions of Auspicious Beast Blood!"
People couldn't help but sigh that this young, Immortal Path Disciple, who was already famous far and wide, truly lived up to his reputation and was now about to experience his moment of glory.
He possessed a clear and serene demeanor, detached from worldly affairs. His brilliant achievements were entirely earned through battle; it is said that he killed more than one powerful demon whose cultivation level was higher than his own.
"Truly worthy of being the one from my Cui Household destined to reach the pinnacle of immortality!"
At the Cui Household's place, several elderly people nodded repeatedly, all with satisfied smiles.
From childhood to the present, Cui Chonghe's performance has been impeccable. He has never lost to anyone and has a strong desire to improve himself. He wants to become someone who surpasses his teachers and ancestors!
Yu Gensheng patted Little Wu on the shoulder and said, "It's alright. A dazzling record doesn't necessarily mean you have the highest potential. Some people are in the mid-to-late stages of a higher realm, while you're only in the Early-Second Realm. So, you'll naturally be at a disadvantage when hunting demons of the same realm."
That being said, the high reward still speaks volumes.
Many people are sighing, "No wonder Cui Chonghe Sun Taichu's last disciple. I've heard so much about him, and now I've finally witnessed his brilliance."
Subsequently, the people in this area became restless again, and a great uproar ensued.
Because the "Great God" of a certain sect of the Esoteric Sect had a brilliant performance that was no less than that of Cui Chonghe, who slaughtered his way through a certain area of Demon Race and beheaded far too many people.
Today, people have witnessed the extraordinary abilities of one Immortal Seed or God Seed being after another, and have seen the vast gap between themselves and them.
Several people actually obtained three portions of the Auspicious Beast Blood!
"Damn, Old Sheep, it's finally your turn. Are all these demons you've slain?"
People were stunned to see Jin Xiang actually step forward and go to the Second Realm cultivator to exchange his battle achievements for the Auspicious Beast Blood.
Golden Sheep smiled wryly. He was accepting the award on behalf of someone else, and it was at the request of two Old Senior of the Mountain River Academy. He was doing it against his will.
"How is this possible? You must be joking! Bring the person in charge here!" Those in charge of tallying the results and distributing the rewards exclaimed in shock.
They were all stunned; this was one person's achievement.
It should be noted that even someone as powerful as Cui Chonghe, with such a great reputation, only managed to exchange for three portions of Auspicious Beast Blood.
Who is this Shen Wubing? He's completely unknown. How could he possibly surpass the most outstanding Immortal Seed or God Seed?
They immediately assumed that the person had cheated.
"This is going too far. Even if you're going to cheat, at least make it believable. How dare you surpass those people? Isn't that just blatantly telling everyone that you're up to something?"
"Are you looking down on us and deliberately testing our limits? You hunted alone and managed to exchange it for four portions of Auspicious Beast Blood!"
The person in charge of statistics thought it was unrealistic; there shouldn't be such a teenager. Moreover, according to the data, the person in question was actually someone from New Life Path.
This is even more outrageous!
In an instant, those nearby also roughly understood that this was not the spoils of several teams, but the head of a demon hunted down by a single person.
"Are you kidding? This is a bit too far-fetched. Who would dare to release such a big news story at this critical juncture?"
"Has he gone mad? He's delusional enough to think he can achieve the highest score through some means, without even considering the situation. Those Ancestor are still here, some have already left."
Everyone thought this was highly improbable.
Because, according to common sense, three portions of auspicious blood is the limit. In fact, with the most dazzling and unparalleled geniuses setting an example, who dares to cross the line, and who can surpass it?
"Do you have any questions? This is Memory Crystal; its Actual Combat Record can be verified!" Yu Gensheng stepped forward, intending to "endorse" the person in question; he personally took the lead.
In an instant, many people were stunned, and a Old Senior was alerted, who actually acknowledged that achievement.
"I trust him too. Let's check the Memory Crystal." Zhao Ziyuan stepped forward and walked over.
Jin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief. He had been in a real bind, unable to move forward or backward. He knew that these were all Actual Combat Record, but others didn't believe him, and they would drown him in their spittle.
"This... how is this possible!"
The person in charge of compiling the statistics did indeed go and verify it, and found it hard to believe, sweat beading on their forehead. Could there really be such Niu Ben young man?
Most importantly, this young man is neither Immortal Seed nor God Seed, which is somewhat illogical, given his past obscurity.
"Senior, he's someone from the New Life Path..." someone said hesitantly.
"What's wrong with New Life Path?" Yu Gensheng roared in anger.
"Who do you think you are!" Zhao Ziyuan also darkened.
Their sparse, few dozen hairs all fluttered in the still air.
"Who are these two old men?" someone asked in a low voice, not recognizing them.
"The leaders of the Mountain River Academy, the New Life Path. Don't let their age and near-baldness fool you; their strength is terrifying. See their hair? By that measure, a single hair of theirs is equivalent to ten years of our arduous training."
"One, two... hiss!"
Tang Jin, Ling Yu, Xin Youdao, Jiang Ruoli and other acquaintances all vaguely guessed whose achievement this was. Even if they had a premonition, they were still shocked.
Tang Jin, in particular, felt as if she were in a dream. This Black White Mountain prodigy, whom she had missed, had surpassed the performance of many other disciples on the path to glory today?
Although this is not a direct reflection of potential—after all, hunting demons involves various factors—the fact that one can exchange for the most Rui Blood still speaks volumes.
Yu Gensheng was extremely dissatisfied and said, "Examine the Memory Crystal to see if there's a problem. Don't make things difficult for my disciples on the New Life Path. Whether it's real or fake, you can tell at a glance. Don't waste your time!"
He originally intended to quickly redeem the reward and let the matter rest, but some people insisted on causing trouble, drawing a crowd to watch.
"This seems... to be the actual battle record." The person in charge of statistics felt uneasy; they couldn't find any problems.
But they still refused to believe it—could there really be such a terrifying boy on the New Life Path?
If the reward is mistakenly issued, they will be in serious trouble if the higher-ups investigate.
"Senior, please wait a moment!" Some people didn't dare to make the decision themselves and ran off to report to higher-ups for a final decision.
"You guys have a prejudice against New Life Path!" Zhao Ziyuan sighed. He originally didn't want things to escalate and wanted to keep a low profile, but he couldn't suppress it.
In fact, they had a premonition that Qin Ming's outstanding performance would cause trouble and might alert people at a higher level.
Several middle-aged men and women arrived and were very polite to Zhao Ziyuan and Yu Gensheng, as they all knew these two elderly senior figures.
"Well... let the person in question come out and meet us," someone suggested.
After verifying it, they were also somewhat troubled. It was truly bizarre; had someone from New Life Path surpassed them? That was four portions of Auspicious Beast Blood —it was far beyond their capabilities!
"Shen Wubing, come here."
Qin Ming walked forward expressionlessly.
"It really is him!" Liu Hannya, Xin Youdao, Tang Jin and the others were all staring ahead.
"This... a rising star on the New Life Path?!"
"If this is confirmed, he will be a true Outer Saint of the Second Realm in this era!"
Many people were in an uproar and started discussing it. Now everyone knew that a boy from New Life Path had achieved the highest score and obtained the most Auspicious Beast Blood.
"It's him, Qin Ming!" someone from the Cui Household said coldly.
Although some people did not hunt down the "Abandoned Son," they were fully informed of his current identity as a disciple of the Mountain River Academy during the process.
Now, some people are green with envy. This young man has caused the deaths of many of their forces, including top-tier teams and some veteran experts.
"This is interesting. The Abandoned Son of the Cui Household is making his debut here, haha..." The Li Household members smiled. They had intercepted the intelligence, and some of them knew his identity.
"What Shen Wubing? He's Qin Ming, and he's no ordinary person!" someone shouted.
This undoubtedly revealed his true identity to everyone.
Many people don't know him, but they've overheard people talking about him in the neighborhood.
As for those acquaintances, they were all shocked. The person who obtained the most Auspicious Beast Blood was actually an old friend they knew?
"He is Qin Ming? The man whose skull I shattered." Li Qingxu was the most shocked. At this moment, even though he had the awareness of "Break-and-Establish," his Dao heart was still unstable, and his emotions fluctuated violently.
"See that? That's my brother!" Ning Siqi said excitedly, pulling on the group of geniuses around him.
Wang Caiwei was stunned. New Life Evolver... could also reach the pinnacle.
Cui Chonghe stared intently at the figure ahead, his eyes deep and unwavering, without uttering a word.
"This brother is a bit scary. Non-Self sect's ancestor has New Life Nirvana? It's only been a few months since I last saw him, and he's improving his cultivation at the speed of running—no, he's flying!" Xiang Yiwu muttered to himself. He had also obtained the Auspicious Beast Blood, but he was still far from the fourth level.
"Seniors, we also need to consult with our superiors." Although the middle-aged men believed in the authenticity of the Memory Crystal, they found it hard to accept that the young man before them could overpower the other prodigies and obtain the most Auspicious Beast Blood.
"What's all this noise about?!"
A bright red Great Sun appeared, Pu Heng, Cao Qianqiu's eldest disciple, manifested his Pure Yang Consciousness Spirit Light and arrived at the scene, coldly surveying the crowd.
Qin Ming's heart sank immediately; this old guy was actually still alive!
When the Kunling Territory underwent changes, all the Ancestor disappeared. A wisp of Pu Heng's Consciousness Spirit Light once escaped back, but was quickly burned to ashes.
Clearly, his core essence is not dead!
"Is there even a need to verify this? It's obviously a fraud. He's just a lowly cultivator at the External Manifestation level on the New Life Path, yet he dares to be so presumptuous. Who is he trying to fool!"
Pu Heng's personality is seven parts like his master's; he is very domineering and immediately sets his character.
Moreover, his eyes were hostile, and his Pure Yang Consciousness Spirit Light, indicating that he was about to take action immediately.
"Pu Heng, don't go too far!" Zhao Ziyuan shouted, instantly stepping in front of Qin Ming.
"Oh, you two old geezers are still alive," Pu Heng said coldly.
Yu Gensheng said, "Get the hell out of here! You're not dead yet, how could I possibly be? Don't try to act tough just because you're your master!"
The area fell silent, everyone trembling with fear.
No one expected that a teenager's achievements would attract the attention of such an important figure, and that a conflict would break out.
Pu Heng's expression was cold as he said, "You two old geezers don't have many years left to live, yet you dare to take a gamble? If you want to accelerate your decay, I don't mind giving you a hand!"
Yu Gensheng rolled up his sleeves and said, "Bring it on!"
"Hehe..." Pu Heng laughed, his voice icy cold, making everyone present feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, their hair standing on end. He brought an unbearable sense of oppression.
He stretched out a finger, actually intending to point it at Qin Ming. He knew that these two old men cared a lot about the young man in front of them, so he wanted to strike at this Heavenly Prodigy first and make them suffer heartbreak.
Zhao Ziyuan and Yu Gensheng naturally wouldn't allow him to crush the hope of New Life Path.
Suddenly, a Golden Haze flew in and struck Pu Heng directly on the top of his head.
"Hmm, a mere hairy beast dares to cause trouble?!" Pu Heng said coldly, as the red Great Sun surged and shot out several crimson beams of Immortal Light.
This was a golden, exotic bird that directly challenged his Pure Yang Spirit Light and flapped its wing at him, causing a thunderous roar to erupt from the area.
Zhao Ziyuan and Yu Gensheng were surprised because they had previously noticed that this golden bird, which had been lurking above the clouds, seemed to have been following Qin Ming the whole time, protecting him.
"Dare to harass me, I'll kill you!" Pu Heng said.
"Whom do you want to kill?" On the plateau, a figure Shrinking Space to an Inch in an instant, reaching out a hand to grab Pu Heng in the red Great Sun.
"It's you again!" Pu Heng's eyes were cold and sharp as he expanded the Great Sun with all his might.
However, after the large hand reached in, it crushed his arm, then grabbed his head with a bang, and with a sudden Exerted Effort, it was clear that his head was splitting open.
