Chapter 1024
The atmosphere in the Godslayer Square was as oppressive as the calm before a storm.
The alluring woman, a high-ranking member of the God-Slaying Guard, flashed a cold glint in her eyes. Her lips parted slightly, and her voice, seemingly laced with frost, coldly declared, "All the cultivators who have not yet returned from the assessment are dead!"
These words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing an uproar in the entire square. Apart from a few people who remained calm, everyone else was filled with shock, their eyes wide open, unable to believe their ears.
After a brief silence, the crowd began to stir. Those weaker cultivators who had initially arrived at Chen Xuan's tribulation site recalled the scene and felt lingering fear. Their gazes involuntarily turned to the solitary Fairy Zhanxin standing not far from the plaza.
Recalling that battle, Fairy Heartbreaker was like a war god descending to earth. Alone, she blocked all those who tried to seize the treasures of tribulation.
After that breathtaking battle, incredibly, only the Heart-Slaying Fairy returned unscathed, while the young masters of the three major tribes and thirty or forty sect disciples perished.
Everyone came to their senses, gasped, and were filled with shock.
Some people's faces were filled with disbelief, their eyes wide and their mouths slightly open; others were secretly glad that they hadn't blindly followed the trend and teamed up with those who never returned.
Of course, some people were filled with grief, their faces radiating hatred, because among the deceased were their relatives and friends.
Among the crowd, some people began to whisper among themselves, planning to sell this explosive news to Wanbaoshan as quickly as possible in exchange for precious cultivation resources.
Some people were secretly planning to use their connections and resources to sell the information for a good price if the higher-ups of the three major families investigated the matter.
Zhanxin was under the gaze of many eyes, like a towering iceberg, his eyes cold and unmoving.
Tired of being stared at, she turned her cold gaze back sharply, and in an instant, all those eyes lowered their heads. No one dared to meet the eyes of this killing goddess, for fear of being targeted by her and bringing disaster upon themselves.
The noise in the square grew louder and louder, drawing displeasure from the two Nascent Soul Daoists. "Silence!" the armored bald man suddenly roared, his voice booming like a bell, making everyone's eardrums hurt, and the square instantly fell silent.
"Five months have passed, and the Godslayer Guard's assessment is officially over." The armored bald man's eyes were sharp as he scanned the crowd and announced loudly, "Those who have collected one hundred divine ore source stones, please take them out automatically for us to inspect and collect."
As soon as he said this, Chen Xuan looked up and saw that only a few cultivators on the entire square had smug smiles on their faces, while most of them were pale as paper, without any color in their skin.
"Senior, these are the divine source stones our team has explored, a total of four hundred and six." The four members of Ji Tianchen's team smiled confidently as they saw the bald, armored man flying over, and then waved casually.
In an instant, a large number of divine ore stones flew towards the man with a whooshing sound. Each of those divine ore stones exuded a unique aura, and it was clear at a glance that they were of excellent quality, fully meeting the standards for the God-Slaying Guard's assessment.
The armored, bald man carefully inspected the items before nodding slightly and giving Ji Tianchen and the others a reluctant smile: "Not bad, the four of you are qualified to become members of my God-Slaying Guard." With that, he waved his hand, and four rings representing the God-Slaying Guard's identity shot towards Ji Tianchen and the others like meteors.
"This ring is just a token. When you return to the Xuanxiao World, you will need to use this ring to verify your identity, leave your aura, and ignite your life lamp. Only then can you enjoy the many benefits of my God-Slaying Guard and be qualified to take on missions to capture wanted criminals."
At this moment, the alluring woman beside the bald, armored man also spoke. She looked at Ji Tianchen and the other three, her voice soft yet carrying an undeniable authority: "These extra ones were ordered by Emperor Xuanxiao that cultivators are not allowed to keep them privately. Therefore, the extra six will be converted into sixty merit points. As for how to distribute them, you can decide that in private."
