Duan Ling Tian turned to Du Huan and said, “You can continue to follow me, and you’ll still be rewarded accordingly as long as you lead me to advanced Lords of Gods.”
Du Huan smiled wryly as he said, “My lord, why don’t I lead you to the hideouts of the advanced Lords of Gods first before Lord Chen Hu leads you to the rudimentary Emperors of Gods?”
Although Du Huan had witnessed Duan Ling Tian’s terrifying strength when Duan Ling Tian killed the two advanced Lords of Gods as though he was strangling chickens, Emperors of Gods were on a different level. Even the weakest rudimentary Emperor of Gods possessed the strength that Duan Ling Tian displayed earlier.
Initially, Du Huan assumed Duan Ling Tian had a group of anti-hunters behind him. However, when he discovered that Duan Ling Tian was working alone, he did not think Duan Ling Tian had a high chance of coming out victorious when faced with rudimentary Emperors of Gods.
“Are you worried I’d be killed by those Emperors of Gods and implicate you?” Duan Ling Tian asked. He naturally understood Du Huan’s concerns. He smiled faintly as he continued to say, “Very well. We’ll do as you suggested. Lead me to the advanced Lords of Gods first, and I’ll deal with them. After that, Chen Hu will lead me to the rudimentary Emperors of Gods.”
!!
Chen Hu was the only one Duan Ling Tian spared in the entire hunting team. This was because Du Huan had told him earlier that Chen Hu was responsible for liaising with other hunting teams. As such, Chen Hu knew more about the whereabouts of the hunting teams.
…
Just as planned, Du Huan led Duan Ling Tian to the hideouts and bases of the hunting teams with advanced Lords of Gods. After killing all the advanced Lords of Gods, he severely injured the intermediate Lords of Gods before he rewarded Chen Hu as promised. Needless to say, Chen Hu’s rewards were much better than that of Du Huan.
Duan Ling Tian could sense Du Huan’s dissatisfaction at the disparity between his and Chen Hu’s reward, but he naturally did not care about Du Huan.
At the same time, Chen Hu dealt with the rudimentary Lords of Gods and handed them to Du Huan. However, he was clearly displeased as well.
Du Huan’s mood improved immediately when he received his rewards. His eyes lit up as well when he sensed his Divine Energy circulating in his body. A grin appeared on his face when he discovered he had a breakthrough. Following that, he said, “My lord, I’ve led you to all the places I know of.”
“Alright, you may leave,” Duan Ling Tian said.
“Thank you, my lord. Lord Chen Hu, thank you for the rudimentary Lords of Gods as well. I, Du Huan, will definitely repay your kindness in the future,” Du Huan said, expressing his gratitude to Duan Ling Tian and Chen Hu.
Following that, Du Huan left without even looking back. At the same time, he muttered inwardly, ‘Chen Hu, I can only repay your kindness if you’re still alive…’
In Du Huan’s opinion, Chen Hu would definitely die along with Duan Ling Tian during their confrontations with the rudimentary Emperors of Gods.
…
The city of the Divine Spirit Mansion was located east of Wu You City.
At this time, various hunting teams had recently discovered that many hunting teams had vanished without a trace. There were also a few hunters who returned to their bases only to discover their team members, including their rudimentary Emperors of Gods who were their leaders, had died. In the wilderness, the rudimentary Emperors of Gods were usually the strongest so it was difficult for them to believe that the rudimentary Emperors of Gods were killed.
“Even Liu Wu You, the City Governor of Wu You City, would have a tough time killing a rudimentary Emperor of Gods. Even if they were no match for her, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to escape from her at all…”
Initially, many people refused to believe the truth presented before their eyes. Many who only heard about it dismissed it as a rumor. However, as more and more rudimentary Emperors of Gods began to die, everyone finally realized that someone was hunting those rudimentary Emperors of Gods down.
“Based on the observations so far, those who died didn’t keep the locations of their bases a secret. For example, teams like us that keep our bases a secret are safe…”
“Clearly, someone’s targeting the hunting teams. It has to be the anti-hunters…”
“This group of anti-hunters is very strong. Otherwise, it’d be impossible for them to kill so many rudimentary Emperors of Gods!”
The hunters assumed a group of anti-hunters were responsible for the deaths of the rudimentary Emperors of Gods. None of them even thought of the possibility that it was the work of one person.
…
Deep in a mountain range.
Chen Hu’s eyes shone brightly as he said, “My lord, there’s another hunting team with rudimentary Emperors of Gods. Should I lead you there now?”
“Let’s go.” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up as well upon hearing these words, and his face was slightly ruddy.
After hunting for a period of time, Duan Ling Tian had killed quite a few rudimentary Emperors of Gods and a few dozen advanced Lords of Gods. As such, his cultivation base had completely stabilized. At this time, his cultivation base was slowly rising to that of a rudimentary Emperor of Gods.
‘I have three years here. However, only two months have passed, but I’ve already improved so much. If this continues, I’ll definitely become a rudimentary Emperor of Gods in another few months!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself excited as his heart skipped a beat and his eyes shone even brighter. He could not wait to kill more rudimentary Emperors of Gods.
Alas, when Chen Hu led Duan Ling Tian to the remote base of the hunting team, they discovered that the team had already evacuated their base.
Duan Ling Tian extended his Divine Consciousness and searched the base thoroughly, confirming that they were the only ones in the base.
Chen Hu’s face was pale as he said, “My lord, I’m sure this is their base. The hunters must have left and set up a new base elsewhere.”
Duan Ling Tian shook his head. “It’s fine. Let’s head to the next base. It doesn’t matter if there’s no rudimentary Emperor of Gods. Advanced Lords of Gods are fine as well.”
With that, Chen Hu began to lead the way again.
Alas, the duo was met with similar situations consecutively. The bases were empty when they arrived.
Chen Hu’s expression was rather unsightly at this moment.
“My lord…” Chen Hu said anxiously. He was afraid Duan Ling Tian might kill him out of anger. Moreover, he had now become an advanced Lord of Gods due to the rewards from Duan Ling Tian. Duan Ling Tian would be rewarded handsomely for killing him.
Half a month ago, Chen Hu was already on the brink of becoming an advanced Lord of Gods. After killing the rudimentary Emperors of Gods, Duan Ling Tian was so pleased that he not only gave the advanced Lords of Gods as promised, but Duan Ling Tian also gave him all the intermediate Lords of Gods they encountered. As such, in fewer than two months, he managed to break through and become an advanced Lord of Gods. Although his cultivation base was now similar to that of Duan Ling Tian, his respectful attitude toward Duan Ling Tian did not change at all.
Initially, despite it being incredibly easy for Duan Ling Tian to kill advanced Lords of Gods, Chen Hu thought Duan Ling Tian would face a certain level of difficulty when faced with the rudimentary Emperors of Gods. It was out of his expectations when he saw Duan Ling Tian killing rudimentary Emperors of Gods with ease as well. Almost none of them managed to survive a single blow from Duan Ling Tian.
Chen Hu shuddered inwardly. ‘Who is he exactly? An advanced Lord of Gods who’s capable of killing rudimentary Emperors of Gods like killing chickens… Even the top advanced Lords of Gods in the royal family don’t have such capabilities, right?’
‘It’s definitely not a coincidence that all those hunters evacuated their bases… News must have spread about the disappearance and annihilation of those few hunting teams. Those whose bases are known definitely left because they sensed the danger…’
At this time, Duan Ling Tian glanced at Chen Hu before he said, “It seems like the news has spread… Since that’s the case, we can go our separate ways now.”
Before Chen Hu could react, Duan Ling Tian had already vanished into thin air.
“My lord…” Chen Hu was caught off guard by Duan Ling Tian’s sudden and decisive departure. Unexpectedly, he felt rather reluctant to part with Duan Ling Tian. He sighed as he muttered to himself, “This one month plus was a huge fortuitous encounter for me… I’m afraid I won’t get another chance like this in the future…”
…
After that, Duan Ling Tian continued making his way to the Divine Spirit Mansion’s city. During the journey, he would extend his Divine Consciousness to his surroundings to search for strong hunters.
At the same time, he thought to himself, ‘The Trial of Gods is truly an excellent place to improve one’s strength through killing. I can’t imagine how powerful the supreme powerhouses who created the Trial of Gods are…’
…
While Duan Ling Tian drew closer to the Divine Spirit Mansion’s city, Liu Wu You, the City Governor of Wu You City, also received news from the wilderness.
“A team of anti-hunter has been hunting teams of hunters led by advanced Lords of Gods and those who are stronger? The teams whose bases aren’t a secret have all relocated? It doesn’t make sense at all…”
Liu Wu You was shocked to hear that there was an anti-hunting team that was strong enough to do such things. After a moment, a figure suddenly appeared in her mind.
‘Could it be him? He’s an advanced Lord
