Chapter 896: Another Dark Gold Shard
The pillar of rainbow-colored light slowly descended and shone on Tang Hao.
An ancient-looking bronze tablet descended within the pillar of light. There were words carved on it.
The single word on top was the biggest and most eye-catching.
Slaughter!
Below that was a list of names, though most of them were “Anonymous.” It was the same situation as the previous tablet.
The bronze tablet stopped in front of Tang Hao. The rows of names shifted downward and made some space for the first place.
“Please carve your name!”
The old and emotionless voice rang out in the sky.
“It’s the Slaughter list!”
There was a commotion everywhere.
That was not surprising at all. Everyone guessed that the kid must be breaking the Slaughter record after killing so many people.
“Damn! Where’s the justice?” The crowd cursed angrily.
Normally, people would rack their brains trying to break a record, and they would only succeed only after experiencing countless hardships. However, that kid made it look so easy.
After breaking one record, he was going to break another one.
Not only that, the record was broken at their expense.
“Dammit! That kid killed so many people. Why isn’t the Supreme God punishing him for his cruelty? Instead, the kid is getting a reward. This is ridiculous.”
“That’s right. The Slaughter list shouldn’t exist in the first place!”
The Slaughter list was one of the hardest records to break. People who belonged to major factions would not dare to break it because their reputation would be tarnished.
Only powerful villains would dare go on a killing spree to make it to the list.
As the years passed, it became harder and harder to top the list. It had been a very long time since someone broke the record.
Now, that Nameless Qin kid actually did it.
“What a despicable villain!” Someone exclaimed.
“Where did that guy come from? Why can’t we ever find him?” Someone said out of frustration.
They had searched for that guy everywhere in real life. No one in the major factions fit his description.
They also went through the ancient heritages and found that they had no such disciple.
It was as if that guy had appeared out of thin air.
Without knowing his true identity, they could not do anything to the kid in the Void Realm or real life.
The people from the major factions became excited.
The appearance of the rainbow-colored light meant that another purple gold or dark gold shard was about to appear. No matter which one it would be, it was a priceless treasure that everyone coveted.
The Slaughter list was a major record, so the record breaker should receive a dark gold shard.
Some people ran towards the exit frantically so that they could report it to their sect leaders. Some even committed suicide on the spot to log out instantly.
All over the Ninth Continent, the major sects and tribes were restless.
They had known about the massacre that was going on in the Void Realm.
Many people gnashed their teeth and cursed angrily. Some faction leaders even contacted their prodigies to take revenge.
When the major factions received the news that a record was broken, they were once again stunned.
All the factions went crazy.
Clang! Clang!
Bells tolled and horns sounded all over the mountains and cities in the Ninth Continent.
“All disciples and elders, follow me to the Void Realm. We shall kill that villain and claim the shard!
“We already have four dark gold shards. Once we get the fifth, we can exchange them with a supreme cultivation technique. This time, we must take the shard at all costs.
“Recall all our wandering disciples immediately. If I don’t see them in two hours, I’ll lock them up for the next three years.”
Primeval Mountain was bustling with activity.
The sect leader and the elders led the elites in the awakening period and the disciples into the Void Realm.
Messenger falcons flew from the mountain in all directions.
It was almost the same situation in other places.
“What’s going on?”
Many people were confused by the sudden burst of activity.
They could tell that something major had happened, but they did not know what it was.
In the Void Realm, Tang Hao lifted a finger and carved two words on the tablet: Nameless Qin.
Then, the bronze tablet vibrated and flew into the sky.
“Today, Nameless Qin has proven himself to be a peerless slaughterer. As a reward for breaking the record, he shall receive a dark gold shard!”
The ancient voice echoed throughout the entire Void Realm.
At the same moment, in the other regions of the Void Realm, countless people raised their heads and looked at the sky in astonishment.
“Nameless Qin? Why does that name sound familiar? Where have I heard it before?”
“It’s the Slaughter list! Oh my god, someone actually broke the record! I wonder which region does that supervillain belong to?”
“Wait, isn’t Nameless Qin the guy who broke the Courage record last time? How did he break another record? He got another dark gold shard! Oh my god! Where did that monster come from?”
The entire Void Realm was in an uproar.
It was very hard to break a record in this era. Breaking two records was simply unheard of.
As the bronze tablet disappeared, a ray of light fell from the sky and landed in Tang Hao’s palm. It was a dark gold shard.
Everyone’s eyes were transfixed on the shard. They stared at it greedily.
That was a dark gold shard! Everyone dreamed of owning one!
They soon remembered what the kid did with his last dark gold shard, and they became nervous.
“Hey, kid, don’t do anything stupid. We can discuss this! Don’t be rash!”
“Just name your price, kid. As long as you’re willing to sell your shard, we, Treasure Trove Mountain, are willing to give you anything!”
Many people tried to persuade him.
Tang Hao held the shard in his hand and stood still.
Those people became even more nervous and tried to persuade him even harder.
Tang Hao frowned. He was wondering if he should exchange it or save it up.
If he saved it, he was not sure when he would get a second dark gold shard. It was so rare that even the major factions had never used it to exchange for anything.
It would be a pity if he had to exchange it for second-tier techniques again. He wanted to obtain a first-tier cultivation technique.
After thinking for a while, Tang Hao shouted towards the sky, “I want to exchange!”
“F*ck! Kid, you’re committing a sin!”
“Sigh! That rascal is too wasteful!”
Everyone around him wailed and cursed.
