Chapter 156 – Ancestors


“I’ve leveled up! I’ve leveled up a lot!”

While Xu Zong was on a killing spree, in the sky above the 88th district, a voice of excitement sounded from the observation ship.

Four-year-old Xu Guangyao sat on Xu Qi’s lap, pointing excitedly at the screen in front of him, his little hand waving non-stop.

On that screen, Xu Zong’s ranking was rapidly rising!

In just a moment, he went from over 600 million to over 960,000, then to the 130,000th place. In less than half a minute, he directly soared to over 10,000th place!

“Xiao Zong is making a move?”

Liu Wenqing also looked at the screen and exclaimed in delight.

“I heard from Xiao Zong beforehand that it wouldn’t be difficult for him to break into the top 1,000 in the Qianwu Kingdom.”

Xu Qi was also overjoyed and pondered.

“Xiao Zong should be able to make it into the top 100 in this 88th district!”

Not only the Xu family, but the Luo family in the distant 1st district also became excited.

“Xiao Zong is rising so fast!”

Luo Hongguo looked at the four screens in front of him and couldn’t help but envy.

“The Thunder God has already made it into the top 5,000, but Xiao Zong will definitely surpass him. Hong’s ranking is also slowly improving. Why is Xiaofeng still hovering around the tens of millions?”

“Brother is definitely saving his strength.”

Luo Hua smiled and didn’t seem worried at all.

“I asked Xu Zong beforehand, and he said that Brother’s qualification for the selection match is guaranteed. We don’t need to worry. Brother will definitely break out in a few days.”

Xu Xin and the others nodded one after another.

On the other side, many forces from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire were also paying attention to the rankings on the observation ship.

“We have someone from our empire who has appeared in the top 10,000. Should we pay attention to him?”

“We should focus on the top 1,000 for now. We can just make a note of those who are over 10,000.”

“Fools! What am I keeping you for? This person went from over 600 million to over 10,000 in just half a minute. Clearly, he killed a lot of people in one go. He’s definitely a master, he just started to exert his strength! Quickly record it and find out where he’s from!”

Upon hearing the discovery from his subordinates, the person in charge became furious, and his roaring voice filled the entire ship.

“This kid has finally started.”

On another ship, an old man with green skin suddenly opened his eyes. When he saw Xu Zong’s ranking locked on the screen in front of him, he burst into laughter and recalled the past three years in the killing field.

It can be said that he watched Xu Zong grow up, and he knew his strength better than anyone else!

…………

In the 88th district, in the 49th mountain range.

In this 88th district, the participants have numbered a total of 56 mountain ranges. Xu Zong is in the 49th mountain range, which is over a hundred kilometers long and wide.

“Taige, something’s not right. That guy called Xuanfeng is coming towards us!”

In a branch of the 49th mountain range, a small thatched cottage has been set up. Over thirty stellar-level geniuses have gathered here. This place is a well-known forbidden area in the 49th mountain range because all thirty-plus people here are domain-level experts! Not many people dare to provoke them.

But at this moment, a panicked voice sounded, causing Taige to open his eyes, get up from the bed in the cottage, and look at the person with dissatisfaction.

“Kanteril, why are you shouting?”

Taige is a young man with a tiger-like head. He is tall and muscular, over three meters tall, with muscles like steel and fur wrapped around his body. When he gets up from the bed, a sense of ferocity immediately emanates from him.

“But, Taige, that’s Xuanfeng!”

Kanteril rushed into the cottage, looking extremely flustered.

“It is said that he has already killed four of the top ten experts in our mountain range, including one at the seventh level of the domain!”

“The top ten at this stage don’t hold much weight.”

Taige sneered, “There are plenty of people who will exert their strength later. Normally, at least at the eighth level of the domain, can be considered an expert!”

“And don’t forget, we are all from the Qianwu Secret Realm. There are over thirty experts here who have comprehended the domain. Even if it’s someone at the ninth level of the domain, they wouldn’t want to provoke us!”

“But Xuanfeng has already come over!”

“Then let’s go out and meet him!”

Upon hearing this, Taige snorted indifferently and walked out of the cottage.

Kanteril’s voice had already alarmed everyone nearby. A group of geniuses had gathered around Taige.

In the sky, a black-haired young man stood on a whirlwind and appeared above the thirty-plus people. His gaze swept over everyone below.

“Xuanfeng, do you really want to be enemies with so many of us?”

Taige grinned, revealing a mouthful of fangs, his eyes filled with a bloodthirsty aura.”First, I am not satisfied with the nickname ‘Whirlwind’. If you are willing to change it, I can consider sparing your lives.”

Standing in the sky, Xu Zong said calmly.

“Second, do you know the whereabouts of a tribe called the Blade Clan? I remember they are from your Qianwu Secret Realm. If you have any information, I can also spare their lives.”

“Hahaha! You’re quite arrogant, kid!”

Tiger grinned, and an invisible wave emanated from him, instantly covering the surroundings with a fiery red domain.

As if his action of releasing the domain was a signal, more than thirty people around him simultaneously released their own domains. These thirty-plus domains emitted various colors, and the immense power shocked everyone watching.

“This Whirlwind actually dares to provoke people from the Qianwu Secret Realm? He’s not afraid of death!”

“These thirty-plus people from the Qianwu Secret Realm are all domain experts, and their leader, Tiger, is a seventh-level domain expert! He is one of the top ten experts in this mountain range!”

“The key is that with so many domain experts, even a ninth-level domain expert wouldn’t dare to act rashly. This Whirlwind has kicked the iron plate this time!”

The stellar geniuses around them communicated with each other, all wearing a gloating expression.

“It seems that you don’t want a way out.”

Xu Zong looked at the many domain geniuses below, a slight smile forming at the corner of his mouth.

With a thought, a tremendously powerful domain was released, pressing against the dozens of domains on the opposite side.

“Ninth-level domain!”

Tiger’s pupils contracted, revealing a difficult expression in his eyes.

“Attack!”

As soon as the words fell, Tiger rushed forward, and his scorching flame domain actively collided with Xu Zong’s wind domain.

At the moment of collision between the two domains, Tiger’s face turned pale, and his domain showed signs of collapse.

“Just a ninth-level domain, let me push you back!”

Tiger roared, his veins bulging, and his fierce momentum made everyone who saw it feel the urge to retreat.

Although that was the case, the difference between two levels of domains was significant. If it was just a difference of one level, talented fighters might have a chance to reverse the situation. However, under two levels of domains, there was almost no possibility of reversing the situation under equal conditions.

Tiger knew his own strength, so he immediately changed his mindset. With his seventh-level domain, he clung to Xu Zong’s ninth-level domain like an injured wolf.

“Kill!”

“Die!”

At the same time, more than thirty geniuses scattered and surrounded Xu Zong from various directions!

Each of them was wrapped in a domain, ranging from four to five levels for the stronger ones and two to three levels for the weaker ones. Each one of them, placed in this mountain range, could be considered a small expert.

Xu Zong flicked his finger.

“Swish, swish, swish!”

Suddenly, thirty curved blades flew out from the whirlwind under his feet.

Those thirty curved blades shot towards the thirty domain geniuses with various trajectories as if they were alive!

The thirty domain geniuses targeted by the curved blades were not afraid at all. After all, in their eyes, Xu Zong’s domain was already restrained by Tiger. With the power of mere psychic weapons, it was impossible for him to defeat them. They all raised their weapons and fiercely collided with the curved blades!

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

The sound of intense clashes between gold and iron continued without interruption.

Immediately after, the thirty figures were sent flying!

However, the thirty curved blades did not retreat at all. Instead, they immediately caught up and killed all thirty domain geniuses on the spot!

For a moment, blood surged!

Everyone watching was dumbfounded.

The few remaining domain geniuses from the Qianwu Secret Realm were also scared and stopped in their tracks, not daring to move forward. They looked at Xu Zong as if they were looking at a monster.

“H-How is this possible?”

“Even if it’s a ninth-level domain, it shouldn’t overwhelmingly defeat so many people. His domain is still restrained!”

“You!”

Tiger, upon seeing this scene, was even more shocked, his eyes wide open.

“Your psychic weapon… is fifth-rank! You are a master of the laws!”

“What?!”

“Yes, only a master of the laws can use a fifth-rank psychic weapon to defeat so many domain geniuses in one move!”

“It’s terrifying. It’s the first time I’ve seen a master of the laws in action! I didn’t expect that in our relatively weaker mountain range, there would also be a master of the laws!”

There were bursts of astonished exclamations from the surroundings.

Master of the laws were extremely rare, and for someone who hadn’t even reached the ninth level of the domain to face them, the difference in strength was overwhelming!”Indeed, those who have reached the ninth level of the domain usually have already grasped the laws.”

With a bitter smile, Teague withdrew his domain and gave up resistance.

His so-called “restraining the opponent’s domain” was probably just because the opponent was too lazy to compete with him in the domain and wanted to use the laws to directly determine the outcome.

“You’re quite slow to realize this.”

Xu Zong manipulated the curved blade, killing the remaining domain geniuses, and then casually landed in front of Teague.

“So, do you want the path of life or death?”

“The path of life!”

Seeing that everyone else had been killed, Teague’s eyes twitched, and he answered without hesitation.

“With my strength, I might be able to break into the top 1000 in the world area. I don’t have enough points yet, I don’t want to die… But, I don’t know where Puzaro is, I don’t even know who he is.”

Teague retracted his murderous aura and honestly shrank his neck.

This was normal. There were billions of geniuses in the Qian Witch Secret Realm, and it was impossible to know every one of them.

“In that case, I’ll assign you a task.”

Xu Zong had no intention of making things difficult for him, and continued.

“I’m not satisfied with my nickname, so I’ve thought of a great one. You go and spread this nickname for me. I want to see results within ten days, otherwise, I will personally hunt you down!”

“No problem! What’s your new nickname?”

Teague nodded very simply. The task was too easy. If he could survive so easily, he would be more than willing!

“Ancestor.”

“…Huh?”

“I said, my new nickname is ‘Ancestor’!”

Xu Zong smiled slightly, his face becoming fierce.

“Within ten days, I want to hear this nickname spread throughout the 49th mountain range, got it?”

“This, this…”

Teague’s face twisted in difficulty.

“Whoosh!”

A curved blade instantly flew out and pressed against his forehead.

“No problem! Absolutely no problem!”

Teague was startled and quickly nodded in agreement.
