In the Senjin Of Goguryeo ranking, no matter which rank was lost, the next rank would immediately replace it.
A hundred years ago, 43 people on the Thousand God King Board had either broken through to the next realm or died mysteriously. In the end, the 957th to 1000th place was left for the God Kings of this year's Investiture of the Gods to fight over.
In other words, whoever obtained the 957th place would be the champion of the new generation of King Qian on the Investiture of the Gods.
In the future, if these 43 people wanted to compete for a higher rank, they could challenge the Senjin Of Goguryeo, who was ranked higher than them. Only by defeating them would their ranking change!
Now, more than 300 people had rushed to the front of this ancient monument, and they were only a step away from the Divine Soul position!
Who could finally sit on the Divine Altar? This was the seventh level, and it was also the most dangerous and intense level.
It was destined that the blood of many top Godly Kings would be spilled on this open land, and this would be the achievement of the unparalleled prestige of the Senjin Of Goguryeo!
Ji Tianfang, Ling Feiwu, Barter, Xu Mo, Zhang Xiaoyu, Zhuang Wenqi, Bai Muxi, Lie Yan … all the geniuses that were scheduled to become the Senjin Of Goguryeo had already arrived.
Each of them guarded a direction, quietly waiting for the Divine Seal Altar's restrictions to disperse.
Generally, the restrictions would disperse in the last three days. At that time, they could fight for the altars, and whoever could guard the altar the most would be able to sit on the Divine Throne!
When Ling Xiao's group of six arrived, they immediately received scorching and hostile gazes.
In this situation where there were too many monks and not enough gruel, everyone hoped that the fewer people who came here, the better. This also proved that their chances were greater!
If Ling Xiao's group didn't need to search for the divine objects here, they would have already come here.
"Xiao 'er, is that you?" Just as Ling Xiao landed, a voice sounded from not far away.
Ling Xiao looked over and was immediately overjoyed. He exclaimed, "Father-in-law, you … you're here too!"
He really didn't expect that the person who called out to him was actually Yurou Fei's adoptive father, also his father-in-law, Mad Monk.
Now, the Mad Monk had also advanced from a high-level Godking to a peak Godking in one go. He must have obtained quite a lot of fortuitous encounters in the snake cave back then. Sitting on him was a ferocious Teng Serpent King.
The Teng Snake was a kind of high-level sacred beast that could be compared to a Divine Beast. It was said that it had already gone extinct in ancient times. No one expected that Mad Monk would actually obtain one. This was a kind of ancient sacred beast, and the power of its bloodline was not inferior to that of a Divine Beast. It had the powerful divine might to command thousands of snakes.
And in front of him was a light attribute Teng Serpent King. It was a high-level Tenth Order Teng Serpent King. Its snake head was constantly swaying, and its snake tongue was constantly flicking. Its fangs were extremely fierce, and its body was covered with glistening white scales.
Ling Xiao didn't expect that in just ten years, the Mad Monk had actually subdued such an ancient sacred beast. It was unknown which ancient mountain range he found it in!
With the help of this Teng Serpent, in addition to his Phaseless Divine Art, he would definitely have a place in the Senjin Kingdom of Goguryeo's name!
However, Ling Xiao glanced around. Every Godking's mount that could arrive here was not ordinary.
The final battle would definitely be very bitter!
"Haha, it's really you, brat. I know that you didn't die after entering the Chaotic Burial Space, but I didn't expect that you, brat, are even more formidable than your master. To actually come out so quickly, I didn't even know!" Mad Monk went forward and patted Ling Xiao's shoulder as he laughed loudly.
Mad Monk was rather satisfied with this son-in-law of his, Ling Xiao. Not only was he outstanding in cultivating Tenbin, but he also had alchemy skills. Truly not what the average person could compare to!
After parting more than a decade ago, Mad Monk relied on the fortuitous encounter he obtained in the Snake Justice Sect's snake cave to advance his strength by leaps and bounds, reaching peak Divine King in one fell swoop from high-level Divine King. He felt that his improvement was already rather fast.
But seeing Ling Xiao now, he discovered that his advancement speed really could not be compared to Ling Xiao at all!
Remembering that Ling Xiao was merely low-level Divine King strength back then, but now, he crossed two ranks and reached high-level Divine King strength in a row. This was truly too freakish, right?
Fortunately, Ling Xiao was his son-in-law. If it was any other young man, he would definitely go crazy with jealousy!
"Hehe, father-in-law, my master also came out from the Chaotic Burial Space with me. He should be here soon!" Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"The Demonic Thearch also came out?
Good … good, this time, I can really determine the winner between him and me. I hope he can really make it here! "Mad Monk's eyes became incomparably fervent as he said.
Mad Monk, the Demonic Thearch, Blade Tyrant, and Sword Maniac were the four legendary figures of the Xuanling Continent. They were also lifelong enemies, and the outcome of their battle had yet to be determined.
"Master will definitely be able to make it here!" Ling Xiao replied. Then, he introduced Yan Yue and Lie Hongying to Mad Monk.
Yan Yue and Lie Hongying heard the conversation between Ling Xiao and Mad Monk, and their hearts were filled with incomparable shock!
They did not expect that Ling Xiao had actually entered one of the Eight Great Forbidden Grounds, the Chaotic Burial Space, and even walked out of it alive.
The two of them looked at Ling Xiao with awe and respect in their eyes!
Anyone who could walk out of the Forbidden Grounds was definitely a formidable person!
They had also witnessed Ling Xiao's terrifying means. It was definitely not a coincidence that he was able to walk out of there alive!
However, after listening to Ling Xiao's introduction, they also got to know Mad Monk, the Divine King who had once made it onto the God Slaughtering List.
If it was said that Mad Monk did not even enter their eyes in the past, then now that Mad Monk had the strength to challenge the Senjin Of Goguryeo, they also began to take Mad Monk seriously.
After Lie Hongying greeted Mad Monk, she prepared to go over to her companions from the Blazing Flame Merchants.
Before she left, she did not forget to say to Ling Xiao, "Ling Xiao, when we are fighting over the Senjin Of Goguryeo, I hope that you can go easy on us!"
"Look at what you're saying, it's fine as long as the people from the Merchant Alliance don't come and provoke me," Ling Xiao replied.
Lie Hongying nodded and separated from Ling Xiao.
Beside Ling Xiao, Yan Yue's eyes revealed a strong reluctance to part. Even Ling Xiao could see that he was infatuated with Lie Hongying.
Ling Xiao patted Yan Yue's shoulder and said, "Old Brother Yan, if you want to chase after a woman, you need to bring out your forthright energy. Don't let a woman look down on you, otherwise why would she follow you!"
Yan Yue smiled embarrassedly and said, "This … this, I'm just taking a look, she … she's pretty!"
He also wanted to chase after her, but the problem was that their statuses were too far apart!
Ling Xiao encouraged, "Big Brother Yan, as long as you obtain the title of Senjin Of Goguryeo, it's only a matter of time before you return the beauty. If you really can't do it, I can be your matchmaker. Alliance Leader Lie and I can be considered old acquaintances, I believe that she will give me some face!"
"Haha, with these words from you, I can rest assured. When I obtain the title of Senjin Of Goguryeo, I will definitely chase after that woman!" Yan Yue regained his confidence and patted his chest as he laughed heartily.
No matter what, he was still the leader of hundreds of thousands of mercenaries. If he also obtained the title of Senjin Of Goguryeo, he believed that the Blazing Flame Merchants would not look down on him, right?
Moreover, Ling Xiao was speaking up for him, so he should at least have some confidence!
At this time, the people from Dragon Gate also rushed towards Ling Xiao's direction.
"You must be Ling Xiao's Great Uncle, right?" Ling Feiwu led the eight people to greet Ling Xiao.
Their group had a total of twenty people, and half of them had yet to arrive. Perhaps they would arrive later, or perhaps some of them had already lost their lives on the way!
"I am Ling Xiao, and you are?" Ling Xiao looked at Ling Feiwu in surprise and asked.
He could feel the closeness of Ling Feiwu's bloodline with his, and he also recognized the few people behind Ling Feiwu. They were people he had met in the clan's territory, and from the way he addressed him, they were definitely Kim people's people.
"My name is Ling Feiwu, and Ling Gang is my uncle. He specifically told me that Great Uncle Ling Xiao is also here to participate in the battle for Senjin Of Goguryeo, so he specifically told me to pay attention to you!" Ling Feiwu replied.
Ling Xiao nodded lightly and said, "I see. It's very good that all of you were able to make it here. I hope that all of you can ascend the altar and raise the prestige of our Dragon Gate!"
Just as Ling Xiao finished speaking, another voice sounded from another direction, "Divine Master Ling is right. The majority of the seats for Senjin Of Goguryeo should belong to our Dragon Gate!"
The person who had arrived was Ji Tian Fang, and there were twelve people behind him. This lineup was stronger than Ling Feiwu's side.
Ling Xiao turned his head and looked over. There were a few people he had some impression of, but he wasn't too familiar with.
Ling Feiwu immediately explained on Ling Xiao's behalf, "Great Uncle Ling Xiao, this is Junior Brother Ji Tian Fang. You should have heard of him, right?"
Ji Tian Fang and Ling Feiwu were the Dragon Gate's most optimistic candidates for the Senjin Of Goguryeo. The two of them already possessed the strength to fight against the Senjin Of Goguryeo.
Their reputations within the Dragon Gate weren't small, so Ling Xiao had naturally heard of them.
He also knew that Ji Tian Fang belonged to the Divine Physique Faction and was an old enemy of Ling Feiwu.
"So it's Elder Ji. With you guys here, our Dragon Gate will return with glory this time!" Ling Xiao said in a hoarse voice.
In terms of age, these people in front of him could leave him several hundred times behind. But in terms of status, Ling Xiao was even more distinguished than them. He was a Divine Alchemist and a high-level elder. He had the qualifications to participate in the Elders Council, while Ji Tian Fang and Ling Feiwu didn't have this qualification yet.
Hence, it wasn't unreasonable for Ling Xiao to speak with such a tone.
But Ji Tian Fang, this kind of monstrous level figure, was already a famous Divine King powerhouse long ago. Even when he obtained the position of elder, Ling Xiao wasn't even born yet.
Now, they actually ran over his head to show off their might. He immediately became unhappy in his heart!
However, he wouldn't cause an internal disturbance in front of so many people. This was the unanimous thought of everyone in the Dragon Gate.
"Divine Master Ling is right. I've long heard that the Divine Alchemist already defeated the new-generation Divine King in the sect long ago. Furthermore, he even slapped Elder He Gong in the face. Presumably, the position of the champion this time will definitely be yours, Divine Master Ling!" Ji Tian Fang said with a taboo tone.
In reality, looking at his expression, there was a casual and disdainful expression. It was obvious that he was just joking!
Ling Xiao had long known that the people from the Divine Physique Faction would never be willing to be suppressed. It seemed like this Ji Tian Fang also wanted to wrestle with him here!
"Don't worry. The position of the champion won't run away. It's mine!" Ling Xiao said calmly.
