Chapter 153

Even his breathing could not help but quicken.

With his discernment as a top-tier Higher God.

He still could not see through the principle of this water droplet.

It was a seamless whole, its surface like a mirror, without any energy fluctuations.

Yet it possessed terrifying lethality.

"Even a twenty-first-tier creature could be slain..."

Feng Ping let out a long sigh.

He roughly understood why that twenty-second-tier demon had fled for its life.

This water droplet...

Was simply too terrifying.

At the same time.

He also saw the changes on the points leaderboard.

At this moment, Qin Mu's points had undisputedly climbed to the first position.

The value had even gone off the charts, reaching an astronomical figure.

It could be said.

This final round no longer had any suspense.

The others on the Prodigy List could not possibly catch up to Qin Mu.

Zhongyuan Province.

Civilization Association Headquarters.

After seeing the water droplet.

Li Qiankun's expression was incredibly excited.

"Technological civilization, this course must be opened!"

He could not help but clench his fists.

Qin Mu had proven with his actions that a technological civilization, when evolved to the extreme, could completely stand shoulder-to-shoulder with transcendent civilizations!

The appearance of the water droplet.

Had further solidified this thought of his.

"This water droplet seems to share the same origin as the Immortal-Slaying Sword, which is why it can unleash such terrifying power under the control of the Immortal-Slaying Sword."

Li Qiankun raised his head.

Gazing at the Immortal-Slaying Sword, he began to ponder: "But what exactly is its principle? It clearly lacks any fluctuations of transcendent energy..."

From beginning to end.

He had not sensed any fluctuations of transcendent energy.

The power system of a technological civilization seemed completely different from existing transcendent civilizations.

Even as the president of the Civilization Association, he could not see through the technological principles hidden within.

And at this very moment.

On the screen.

The massacre in Sky Demon City was nearing its end.

The frenzied slaughter by the water droplet caused the number of demons in Sky Demon City to plummet.

The high-speed moving water droplet...

Quickly wiped out the two million demons.

The energy scattered throughout the world was all collected by the Immortal-Slaying battleship.

And after finishing all this.

The Immortal-Slaying battleship roared to life.

Turning into a streak of light.

It flew toward the distance.

Upon sensing the direction of the Immortal-Slaying battleship.

Li Qiankun could not help but frown: "It... is actually going to another major city?"

On the current points leaderboard, Qin Mu's name was far in the lead.

Although six days remained.

It was already impossible for anyone to surpass Qin Mu's points.

It could be said.

Even if Qin Mu were to lie down and do nothing now, he would still be in first place.

This final round...

No longer had any suspense.

"He... he wouldn't be trying to accumulate energy to break through to a Higher God, would he?"

Thinking about the recent behavior of the Immortal-Slaying battleship.

A thought suddenly popped into Li Qiankun's mind.

He immediately shook his head.

The realm of a Higher God was far beyond what a Middle God could compare to.

The breakthrough process was extremely complex.

Without the guidance of a master and thorough preparation, success was almost impossible.

The two prodigies ranked ahead of Qin Mu on the Ancient Prodigy List...

Were precisely because of these reasons.

That they had been slow to break through.

In the final hall of the Hall of Civilization.

Everyone who had been constantly monitoring the points leaderboard...

Soon noticed the change in rankings.

And upon seeing Qin Mu's skyrocketing points.

All ten people, including Wang Yue, fell into silence.

They had worked hard for four days.

Hunting frantically.

The highest they had reached was only over four million points.

But as soon as Qin Mu arrived...

He directly created an unattainable astronomical figure.

The gap between them was simply too large.

Although there were still six days left.

They had no chance of overtaking him at all.

Their top combat power was only at the eleventh or twelfth tier.

"Forget it, let's find a way to compete for second place instead."

"First place gets one hundred portions of origin, but second place at least has a reward of ten portions..."

"Who could have imagined that such a monster like Qin Mu would appear in this competition..."

"..."

In the midst of their despair.

Everyone quickly shifted their mindset.

And began competing for second place.

Especially after the Immortal-Slaying Sword slaughtered Sky Demon City.

The demon world was now in complete chaos, and more and more demons were becoming isolated.

They had more opportunities to hunt those eleventh and twelfth-tier demons.

It was just that...

They soon discovered that things were not as simple as they had imagined.

In the demon world.

The Immortal-Slaying Sword, having gone on a killing spree, had no intention of stopping.

It immediately rushed to the second major city.

And launched a heaven-shaking slaughter.

Wherever the water droplet passed, not a blade of grass remained.

The major city of two million demons...

Was once again slaughtered clean.

The leading twenty-second-tier demon fled on the spot, not even looking back.

After that.

The Immortal-Slaying Sword did not stop for a moment, continuing to dash wildly through the demon world.

Whenever it saw demons wandering outside, it would kill them on the spot.

The number of demons in the entire world...

Began to plummet crazily.

At the beginning, the creatures they sent out still needed to be stealthy to hunt.

But gradually...

After a few days.

Fewer and fewer demons could be seen.

The creatures they sent out could even walk openly in the demon world.

"Can't find any, where are the demons? They haven't all been killed by that strange technological creation, have they?"

"Within a hundred miles, I haven't seen a single demon?"

"There's an isolated twelfth-tier demon in the west, nobody compete with me for it!"

"You go ahead, this demon is fifteenth-tier..."

"..."

The creatures sent by Wang Yue and the others walked on the land.

Searching everywhere.

Whenever they saw a demon, they would desperately swarm it.

Of course.

When they saw those high-level demons, they could only choose to retreat immediately.

But in the entire world.

The 50 million demons were decreasing at a visible rate every day.

On the ninth day.

Wang Yue and the others discovered that they could no longer find any demons at all.

Demon world.

In an underground city.

Nine Demon Kings gathered together, their expressions filled with anxiety and unease.

They...

Were the lords of the nine major cities of the demon world.

And the top powerhouses who actually controlled the demon world.

However...

Under the successive visits of the Immortal-Slaying Sword, the nine major cities had been destroyed one by one.

Being clever.

They had let their subordinates die to buy time, only then gaining a glimmer of survival.

At the same time.

They created an underground city, gathered the surviving demons on the surface, and hid here.

And outside the underground city.

They cast numerous concealment divine abilities and various protections.

Fearing that the giant sword would come knocking.

In the current underground city.

18 million surviving demons from the demon world were gathered.

The nine Demon Kings issued a death order.

All demons must stay in the underground city at all times, and were forbidden from going out or exposing their tracks.

Violators would have their souls extracted, be skinned, and killed on the spot!
