Chapter 1288 - The Great Thousand Palace, Demon Slayer King

“The mightiest force in the Great Thousand World?” The hearts of Mu Chen and the rest trembled when they heard this from Celestial Chi Yan and exchanged looks. They hadn’t heard of this force before, could this be even more powerful than the five Ancient Clans and other forces in the Great Thousand World?

“I wonder who is the Palace Master of the Great Thousand Palace?” Mu Chen couldn’t help asking. To be able to establish such a terrifying force, the Palace Master must be the strongest existence in the Great Thousand World.

“There isn’t a Palace Master in the Great Thousand Palace right now... If there is, it would be the strongest existence in the ancient times, the Immortal Emperor.” Celestial Chi Yan shook his head.

“Immortal Emperor?” Mu Chen’s pupils instantly narrowed, since he had known about the Immortal Emperor from the Heavenly Emperor, the previous cultivator of the Primordial Immortal Body.

It’s just that Mu Chen never expected that this person would be the founder of the Great Thousand Palace.

“Why haven’t we heard of such a force in the Great Thousand World?” Ling Xi felt something was amiss, so she asked.

Celestial Chi Yan chuckled, “Because this force only truly existed when facing the invasion of the Fiend Clans. In normal times, the Great Thousand Palace is just a symbol.”

Mu Chen was shocked, so this Great Thousand Palace was formed to face the Fiend Clans. But why was it the mightiest force in the Great Thousand World?

“According to the rules that have passed down through ancient times, practically the majority of the Heavenly Sovereigns in the Great Thousand World would leave a record in the Great Thousand Palace. After the audit, they would become a Guest of the Great Thousand Palace.”

“And those Saint Heavenly Sovereigns would become the Elders of the Great Thousand Palace. Unless the Great Thousand World is facing dangers, the Guests and Elders of the Great Thousand Palace aren’t required to do anything.”

“So is such a formation considered the mightiest force in the Great Thousand World?” Celestial Chi Yan looked at the four of them teasingly.

The corner of Mu Chen’s lips twitched. So this was how the mightiest force came to be, but after thinking further about it, he could also sense how terrifying the Great Thousand Palace was. That’s because, from a certain degree, the Great Thousand Palace was akin to an alliance of the Great Thousand World, and when the Great Thousand World faced danger, they would gather together to fight their enemies.

Regardless of the time, a united force was always the greatest.

Facing the strong threat of the Fiend Clans, the Great Thousand World had to unite to confront their enemies. Thus, one could tell the foresight that the Immortal Emperor, who established the Great Thousand Palace had.

“Although the Great Thousand Palace is merely a symbol now, don’t underestimate it. The power it possesses still exceeds all of your imagination, it’s just that it doesn’t show any of it.”

“Furthermore, the Great Thousand Palace is a mighty figure in the Great Thousand World. Even the Ancient Clans would be polite to them, and anyone with the title of a Guest in the Great Thousand Palace is even more terrifying than the Elders of the five Ancient Clans.”

When he spoke of Guests, Celestial Chi Yan appeared pleased, since he must also be a Guest in the Great Thousand Palace.

As he spoke, Celestial Chi Yan cast a glance at Mu Chen. “If you become a Guest in the Great Thousand World, even the Ancient Buddha Clan wouldn’t be able to do anything to you.”

When Mu Chen heard his words, he helplessly shook his head. Being a Guest would mean that he had to become a Heavenly Sovereign, and if he really possessed the strength of a Heavenly Sovereign, would he be so afraid of the Ancient Buddha Clan?

Celestial Chi Yan knew what Mu Chen was thinking, so he smiled. “Becoming a Guest of the Great Thousand Palace doesn’t mean becoming a Heavenly Sovereign...”

“Oh?” Mu Chen was a little surprised. Could there be another method? The Great Thousand Palace had a towering position in the Great Thousand World. If he could become a Guest and didn’t have to be restricted, it was clearly something beneficial without any harm.

Celestial Chi Yan pointed at the Demon Slayer Plaque.

Mu Chen looked at it again, since he was previously shocked to hear about the Great Thousand Palace. Looking at it now, they could see a few names formed on the tablet.

But the one that attracted the most attention was the name on the top, flickering with purplish gold that emanated an eerie aura under the sunlight.

Demon Slayer King - Qin Tian.

That name was akin to an Emperor, residing at the top of the Demon Slayer Plaque. When countless people looked at that name, their eyes flashed with revere.

Beneath Qin Tian’s name, innumerable names were flickering.

High Rank Demon Slayer - Liu Difeng

High Rank Demon Slayer - Lu Shan

...

Middle Rank Demon Slayer - Lu Lingyu

...

Low Rank Demon Slayer - Lu Shu

...

There were numerous names engraved on the Demon Slayer Plaque that occasionally flickered. As if countless names were flickering up and down.

Mu Chen looked at the Demon Slayer Plaque for a long time before looking at Celestial Chi Yan, since he wasn’t sure of how it worked.

“Everyone in the Sacred Abyss Continent will obtain a Demon Slayer Token from the Great Thousand Palace. Every time they kill a member of the Fiend Clan, they will be rewarded with Demon Slayer Points accordingly, which can be exchanged for treasures in the Great Thousand Palace. Furthermore, as long as you have enough Demon Slayer Points, you can even exchange them for Peerless Divine Abilities or even Sovereign Celestial Bodies that are in the Top 20 rankings!”

“We can even obtain Peerless Divine Abilities?” Mu Chen couldn’t hold back his smile. He naturally knew that those Peerless Divine Abilities wouldn’t be ranked amongst the 36 Peerless Divine Abilities. But even an ordinary Peerless Divine Ability was extraordinary enough, since that wasn’t something that most Heavenly Sovereigns could obtain.

But right now, the Great Thousand Palace was actually offering them up to exchange with Demon Slayer Points, how shocking was that?!

Not to mention the Top 20 Sovereign Celestial Bodies, that was even more shocking. After all, those sorts of Sovereign Celestial Bodies were too rare!

“According to the rules of the Great Thousand Palace, as long as your points have reached 1000, you will be promoted to the Middle Rank Demon Slayer from Low Rank Demon Slayer. Reaching 3000 points, you will be promoted to High Rank Demon Slayer, and a High Rank Demon Slayer will be able to become a Guest of the Great Thousand Palace, even if you are not a Heavenly Sovereign.”

Hearing him up to then, Mu Chen finally understood that this was what Celestial Chi Yan meant. As long as he had sufficient Demon Slayer Points, he would be able to become a Guest in the Great Thousand Palace.

But it looked like getting 3000 Demon Slayer Points wouldn’t be easy, since Mu Chen had just noticed that the amount of High Rank Demon Slayers on the stone tablet wasn’t more than 20.

“According to the rules, killing a member of the Fiend Clans with the cultivation of a Lower Earth Sovereign will award you 50 Demon Slayer Points. 100 for a Greater Earth Sovereign, and 200 for a Perfected Earth Sovereign... A Monarch is worth 3000 Demon Slayer Points, a Monarch with the strength of an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign is worth 5000 Demon Slayer Points. Last, but not least, killing a Sky Monarch awards you 10,000 Demon Slayer Points.”

Hearing Celestial Chi Yan’s words, Mu Chen’s group was dumbfounded. They expected that the Demon Slayer Points wouldn’t be easy to obtain, but they never expected it to be so difficult...

According to this estimation, they would have to kill 20 Lesser Earth Sovereigns, or 10 Greater Earth Sovereigns to become a Middle Rank Demon Slayer?

As for reaching the High Rank Demon Slayer, they would have to kill 15 Fiend Clans with the strength of a Perfected Earth Sovereign...

Those sorts of existences weren’t helpless livestock for them to kill, so how could they accomplish it so easily?

Thus, one could tell how difficult it was to rise in rank. No wonder that, after so long, there was only twenty High Rank Demon Slayers. God-knows how long it took for them to accumulate thus far.

Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Mu Chen asked, “Then, how many Demon Slayer Points do we need to reach the Demon Slayer King?”

“The Demon Slayer King...” Celestial Chi Yan sighed, “It’s actually simple, just 10,000 Demon Slayer Points or killing a Sky Monarch.”

Mu Chen’s group felt their scalps going numb. Killing a Sky Monarch? That’s easy saying it, an existence on that level was practically a pinnacle powerhouse, and losing one was a significant blow to either the Great Thousand World or the Fiend Clans.

“Did that Senior, Qin Tian kill a Sky Monarch?” Luo Li couldn’t help asking.

“Qin Tian...” Celestial Chi Yan’s face flashed with respect as he said, “Many years ago, when Qin Tian was also as young as you guys, he brought a team into the Sacred Abyss to train. But because they had encountered experts of the Fiend Clan, their group was destroyed. Everyone in the team died except for Qin Tian.”

“After that, that fellow stayed in the Sacred Abyss Continent for two hundred years. In this period, he would charge like a madman for places with news of the Fiend Clan’s appearance...”

“In these two hundred years, he had also reached the Heavenly Sovereign Realm. After that, he was unfortunate to be sent to the territory of the Fiend Clans, and just when everyone thought that he had no chance of returning, that fellow returned and even brought the corpse of a Monarch with him...”

“After that, he had become the first Demon Slayer King since ancient times... and no one was able to surpass him.” When Celestial Chi Yan finished his words, Mu Chen’s group was dumbfounded for a long time before they couldn’t help exchanging a glance. They could all see shock in each others eyes.

Such an achievement... this Demon Slayer King... is truly an exceptional person!
