Chapter 2186 The Apocalypse Martial Society Has Been Wiped Out, Chu Kuangren’s Backup Plan, Human Divine Maiden Leaderboard
The Apocalypse Martial Ruler slowly opened his eyes.
A cold, dangerous glint flashed in his eyes. "Chu Kuangren and Tempest King, I will remember what you both did to me. Just you wait!"
He then made a mysterious hand sign.
In the Apocalypse Martial Society, something strange began happening to the cultivators who cultivated the Apocalyptic Demon Martial Art. The Carnage Great Dao in their bodies started activating automatically all of a sudden.
"W-What's happening?"
"Why can't I control my Grand Dao power?"
"It's the same with my Primordial power too."
"What's going on?"
The Apocalypse Martial Society's cultivators were terrified. The power inside their bodies quickly gushed out of them along with their life force as if being leeched away by some unknown force, and it gathered toward the Apocalypse Martial Ruler.
Meanwhile, the Apocalypse Martial Ruler's power rapidly recovered.
Although he could not unleash the combat strength of a Monarch, it was enough for self-protection.
"Luckily, I tampered with the Apocalyptic Demon Martial Art back then. This has allowed a portion of my consciousness to attach to anyone who cultivates this technique. And coupled with this portion of my Monarch's Heart that I cut off, I have been able to revive myself."
The Apocalypse Martial Ruler felt relieved.
It was a secret technique he developed that allowed his consciousness to attach to the cultivators of the Apocalyptic Demon Martial Art. That way, he could strip them of their power whenever he wished.
As long as those cultivators were not a Monarch, they would not be able to free themselves of his control.
"Chu Kuangren will never let my Apocalypse Martial Society survive. It's only a matter of time before he gets here. I must find somewhere else to recuperate my strength," the Apocalypse Martial Ruler thought to himself.
Then, his figure disappeared in a flash.
Soon after he left, two figures arrived at the Apocalypse Martial Society.
It was Chu Kuangren and Armament Destruction.
The two of them were a little stunned to see dead bodies lying all over the place.
Armament Destruction went ahead and checked them for a while. "There are no obvious injuries on their bodies, but their life force and power have disappeared for some reason.
"It's as if something has drained their power and life force."
Chu Kuangren pondered on it before sending his Immortal Consciousness to cover a radius of a million kilometers. He noticed that in the other Apocalypse Martial Society branches, corpses also lay scattered all over the place, and all of them Apocalypse Martial Society's cultivators.
"How interesting. This must be your work, right, Apocalypse Martial Ruler?" Chu Kuangren mumbled.
A very long time ago, he noticed that the cultivators of the Apocalypse Martial Society who cultivated the Apocalyptic Demon Martial Art had a strange consciousness lying dormant inside their bodies.
It seemed like that consciousness was the Apocalypse Martial Ruler.
That must be the key factor to his revival.
However, the Tempest King had taken a huge portion of his Monarch's Heart away and gave it to Chu Kuangren. Even if he could revive, he would surely be left with very little power.
He would not be able to cause any trouble for the time being.
Still, he would not let go of the grudge so easily.
He would surely find Chu Kuangren one day.
"Oh well, I'll deal with him when the time comes," Chu Kuangren thought.
To him, the Apocalypse Martial Ruler was no longer a threat.
"Let's go."
With that, he and Armament Destruction left the Apocalypse Martial Society.
"The Carnage aura in Feng Domain is dense and abundant. If we set up the Great Water Nation Warring Map Formation here, it will thrive."
On the way back, Armament Destruction looked at the Feng Domain's terrain and suggested.
Chu Kuangren chuckled. "Ha! As someone who was once a part of me, we sure share the same idea."
Armament Destruction looked at the Feng Domain again. "No, that's not right. You've already set up the Great Water Nation Warring Map Formation here, and it's been here for a while too."
Having once assisted Chu Kuangren in setting up the formation, Armament Destruction was quite familiar with the formation's layout. That was how he could tell.
"That's right."
"I see, so that's how it is." Armament Destruction came to a realization. "Even if you didn't have the Tempest King's avatar, you could've used this formation to go against the Apocalypse Martial Ruler."
He finally understood why Chu Kuangren wanted to establish the Pan Gu Sect in the Feng Domain and why Chu Kuangren was so calm during the Apocalypse Martial Ruler's attack.
"Ha! I never engage in battles that I can't win."
Chu Kuangren laughed.
Both of them went their separate ways after returning to Myriad Arms City.
Armament Destruction had comprehended some profound aspects when observing the fight between the Tempest King and Apocalypse Martial Ruler. Although it did not increase his cultivation level, from a cultivation standpoint, it benefited him greatly.
Somewhere in Myriad Arms City, Armament Destruction swung the Broken Arms forward.
A vast surge of Blazing Flame spread, shaking the surroundings and leveling a mountain range in front of him. His shockingly powerful Primordial energy was flowing all over the place. Its might was far more terrifying than even a Grand Dao Supreme Sage!
"Using my understanding of Daoist law energy into certain techniques has clearly made my attacks more powerful," Armament Destruction mumbled.
Then, he looked toward the depth of Myriad Arms City.
That was the direction of where Chu Kuangren was having his closed-door meditation.
"I still have a long way to go compared to him," Armament Destruction thought.
On that day, the wind blew in the void, and waves of Hongmeng spiritual qi appeared.
Every being in the Great Hongmeng Universe was excited to see it.
"This phenomenon… It looks like a new Hongmeng Leaderboard is about to appear."
"I wonder what leaderboard it will be this time."
In the Celestial Divine Tribe, Tianshen Chang suddenly opened his eyes. His broken arm had recovered by now, but he could still feel a faint throbbing pain.
That was a mark of humiliation Chu Kuangren left for him.
"Chu Kuangren, I'll never forgive you for stealing my divine weapon and cutting my arm. I will not let this matter slide so easily."
Tianshen Chang held his right arm with a chilling gaze. Then, he looked at the Hongmeng Leaderboard with excitement. "Now that Chu Kuangren has broken through to the Grand Dao Realm, the first spot on the Primordial Leaderboard will surely be mine!"
Frankly speaking, he could have ascended to the Grand Dao Realm long ago.
However, he had been suppressing his cultivation level because he wanted to obtain the surge of fortune's blessing for being the first on the Primordial Leaderboard. This time, he was very confident that he would succeed.
In the void, a new Hongmeng Leaderboard appeared. It was the Human Divine Maiden Leaderboard!
The Human Divine Maiden Leaderboard would only rank the divine maidens of the human race.
Everyone was quite surprised.
Humans were the first great species to appear in the Infiniverse. Although they were not necessarily the strongest, their numbers were certainly the highest.
They could be found scattered all over the Infiniverse with their countless numbers, making them the deserved masters of the universe.
Hence, the appearance of a leaderboard that specially ranked humans was not so surprising.
"Ha! We humans are truly the masters of the universe. There is even a custom Hongmeng leaderboard for humans."
"That's right. I'm curious as to which Divine Maidens will be ranked."
"Human Divine Maidens, huh? Based on experience, those who are ranked aren't necessarily the strongest cultivators, but they will surely be young and gorgeous."
"I heard that the Divine Maiden Leaderboard and Divine Bachelor Leaderboard will always appear at the same time. Will the Divine Bachelor Leaderboard appear after this, I wonder?"
"It's possible."
The Human Divine Maiden Leaderboard would only rank cultivators below the Monarch class. A total of a hundred female cultivators would be ranked based on their cultivation level, potential strength, appearance, and many other factors.
Following that, several names started appearing in the giant purple ball of light.
Number ninety-nine was Yun Yan from the Wind Universe.
Number ninety-nine was Xue Yue from the Ancient Universe.
Number ninety-eight…
One by one, the names of those stunningly beautiful Divine Maidens appeared on the leaderboard. Several bursts of fortune energy scattered all over the universe, and many cultivators watched with envy. Some male cultivators even wished they were female so that they could vie for a spot in the Divine Maiden Leaderboard.
