The Legendary Man

Jonathan’s and the others’ expressions turned grave as they looked up at the three rays of light in the sky.

“F*ck! What does he mean by our heads can be exchanged for nine positions? Have our values increased?” Stellario shouted at the sky.

Merilyn hurried over to Stellario’s side.

“Stellario, stop shouting, or more people will come.”

Merilyn was feeling conflicted at the moment.

She wasn’t from the outside world in the first place and was raised in the small world.

Based on that man’s explanation, cultivators from the small world can become an envoy of Yannopolis by chopping off an outsider cultivator’s head. Yet, bafflingly, my life is now worth three cultivators’ positions.

Merilyn was utterly bewildered, not knowing how to survive.

Should I hike to the top of Ascension Peak and search for the path to ascension? I’m not an outsider. But will I become an envoy of Yannopolis if I kill an outsider? That won’t work, either. Now, I’m stuck with Jonathan and Stellario. Even if I leave them, my life will still be the easiest and most efficient way to become a Yannopolis envoy as long as that man doesn’t amend my identity. I probably won’t even last an hour before the cultivators hunt me down.

Compared to the rest with a clear goal, Merilyn had it the worst.

Jonathan tossed a few Spirit Rejuvenating Pills into his mouth and crushed them. A flash of impatience crossed his eyes as he glanced at the corpse beside him.

It’s apparent that we’ve been singled out. From the moment that man changed the rules, a beacon appeared above our heads like a signal. So, the cultivators we’ve met along the way were the cultivators on this strip. For the sake of becoming an envoy, those cultivators, at most, formed a small team of three to stop our advancement. These kinds of cultivators aren’t a threat to us. However, now that our heads can be exchanged for nine spots, that allows the local cultivators to form larger teams. They might not be able to defeat us if it’s a three-on-three battle. Even if they do, Merilyn’s head can’t be exchanged for a spot, so they’ll still need to fight over the remaining positions. However, it’s nine against three now. With all of our opponents being God Realm cultivators, we can’t win them despite how powerful our abilities are.

It was almost like every local cultivator had come to a tacit agreement to band together and form a temporary kill squad if they had less than nine people on their team the minute Neil announced the amendment of the rules.
