The eighteen Half-step Emperors split up in eighteen different directions and began to inspect the imperial pills handed over by the Earthly Sovereigns.
"Heavenly Snow Ridge's Ou Yonghao harvested twenty-eight imperial pills."
"Wooden Blade Gate's Mu Linsen harvested twenty-one imperial pills."
"Jade Sea City's Yan Fang harvested twelve imperial pills."
"Cang Feng Mountain's Fan Feng harvested sixteen imperial pills."
… …
As the voices of the Quasi Emperors from all over the city resounded, the ruined city seemed to be bustling with noise.
At first, the Earthly Sovereigns handed over a dozen to twenty imperial pills. Occasionally, there would be single digits, but only a few had over thirty.
Within the Chaotic Abyss of War, imperial pills were guarded by resentful spirits. It wasn't easy for them to obtain them, and most of them worked in groups, so each person wouldn't get much.
When there were more than a hundred people, the Earthly Sovereigns who had obtained a large number of imperial pills finally showed up.
"Myriad Weapons City's Yu Dongfeng harvested seventy-eight imperial pills."
"Maple Fire Sect's Ma Taige harvested ninety-one imperial pills."
"Mystic Blade Sect's Xia Hualing harvested one hundred and three imperial pills."
"Ruan Jiacheng Ruan Jinxiao harvested ninety-eight imperial pills."
… …
As more and more Earthly Sovereigns came up to inspect, there were finally some with over a hundred imperial pills.
These people had the potential to advance into the top 100 Battle Emperors.
Suddenly, an elderly Half-step Emperor shouted, "Hidden Sword Sect's Xie Xiaojian harvested two hundred and forty-three imperial pills!"
As soon as the announcement was made, everyone gathered in the direction of the elderly Half-step Emperor.
They saw a young man dressed in luxurious clothing with an arrogant expression, his eyes filled with pride.
This person was the Hidden Sword Sect's Xie Xiaojian, a peak Earthly Sovereign.
He was currently the one with the most imperial pills, and felt that he had a high chance of becoming one of the top ten Imperial Killers.
"Hidden Sword Sect?
The Hidden Sword Sect that rarely makes a move? It's said that their foundation is already comparable to a fourth-rank sect. "
"That's right, the Hidden Sword Sect is a famous sect in the central region. Even the eighteen major powers have to give in to them. It's no coincidence that their disciples have such results."
"Two hundred and forty-three Imperial Pills. Even if he can't enter the ranks of the Exterminators, he's still one of the top Battle Emperors."
"That's right. Although Xie Xiaojian is only at the peak of the Earthly Sovereign Realm, I've seen him fight before. His strength is definitely comparable to a low-level Heavenly Venerable!"
…
As time passed, there weren't many people who surpassed Xie Xiaojian, but it wasn't as if there weren't any.
Gan Moning, who came from the aristocratic Gan Clan, obtained 251 Sovereign Pills. Pan Changhe and Luo Ning, who came from the Fourth Grade Sect, Li Shui Sect, each obtained 247 Sovereign Pills. Liang Junhua, a peerless genius from the Fifth Grade Sect, obtained 285 Sovereign Pills. He was currently the person with the most Sovereign Pills.
These were all geniuses other than those from the major powers. To be able to obtain such a number of Emperor Pills was already incredible. After all, their equipment was far inferior to those from the major powers.
At this moment, a half-step Emperor expert exclaimed excitedly, "Yuan Zhantian harvested … harvested 850 Emperor Pills!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but burst into an uproar.
"Yuan Zhantian is the person who fought with Ling Xiao. He actually … actually harvested so many Emperor Pills. Could it be that he entered a place with a half-step Emperor remnant soul and obtained the Emperor Pills?"
"That's definitely the case. Yuan Zhantian's battle strength is comparable to a high-level Heavenly Venerable. No wonder he's stronger than the leaders of the major powers. I wonder how many Emperor Pills Ling Xiao, who's even more terrifying than him, has harvested?"
"Yuan Zhantian will definitely enter the ranks of Imperial Killer. In the future, when he becomes a Heavenly Venerable and stimulates more Sacred Battle Apes' Tenbin, I'm afraid he'll still be invincible among those in the same realm!"
"That day, he was seriously injured and was chased by dozens of Earthly Sovereigns. To think that he's still alive. He's really extraordinarily tough!"
…
Ling Xiao looked at Yuan Zhantian, who was not far away. His expression was somewhat hypocritical. He sighed in his heart, "It's a pity that he gave me five hundred Imperial Pills. Otherwise, he could have broken through to a thousand. With such an opponent, I would not be lonely in this life!"
Yuan Zhantian seemed to feel Ling Xiao's gaze. He turned around and exchanged a glance with Ling Xiao. Unexpectedly, he nodded lightly and walked to the side, sitting down cross-legged, not bothering with anything else.
"Alright, you two can go and inspect as well," Ling Xiao said to Ye Yunfeng and Gu Jiaojiao, who were beside him.
The two nodded lightly and walked towards the half-step Emperor expert who was inspecting the Emperor Pills.
Gu Jiaojiao was in front of Ye Yunfeng. She bowed slightly to the half-step Emperor expert and took out all her Emperor Pills. Placing them in front of the half-step Emperor expert, she said, "This junior is Gu Jiaojiao from the Gu Clan. Please inspect."
The half-step Emperor expert nodded lightly and scanned the Emperor Pills with his consciousness. He immediately said in a clear voice, "Not bad, Gu Jiaojiao from the Gu Clan has obtained 361 Emperor Pills!"
Gu Jiaojiao revealed a proud expression. She put away her Emperor Pills and immediately retreated.
Ye Yunfeng took out all his Emperor Pills and said, "This junior is Ye Yunfeng from the Ye Clan City. Please inspect."
A pile of Emperor Pills appeared in front of the half-step Emperor expert. The surrounding Earthly Sovereigns looked on with envy.
"Not bad, Ye Yunfeng from the Ye Clan City has 582 Emperor Pills!" The half-step Emperor expert said loudly, his eyes filled with admiration.
Up until now, Ye Yunfeng and Gu Jiaojiao's Emperor Pills were ranked second and third respectively.
The surrounding Earthly Sovereigns were in an uproar.
At this moment, Ye Yunfeng really wanted to shout, "I, Ye Yunfeng, am already a War Emperor!"
With this amount of Emperor Pills, it was impossible for him to not enter the War Emperor rank.
In the Central Region, all the Earthly Sovereigns who had reached the War Emperor rank felt unparalleled glory. The Slaughter Emperor rank had always been occupied by powerful forces.
Ye Yunfeng becoming a War Emperor was definitely a piece of good news for the Ye Clan. This was the first Ye Clan member to become a War Emperor in thousands of years.
This was Ye Yunfeng's dream. Now that he had achieved it, his heart was filled with boundless excitement.
He knew that this was all thanks to his Big Brother. His heart was filled with gratitude.
If he hadn't chosen to leave the Ye Clan City with his Big Brother, would his strength have increased by leaps and bounds in such a short period of time?
This was all thanks to his Big Brother's nurturing. If he hadn't been saved by his Big Brother in the Chaotic Abyss of War, would he still be alive to take out so many Emperor Pills?
This was obviously impossible!
Ye Yunfeng's brotherly love for Ling Xiao had already reached a point where he would never regret it!
Even if Ling Xiao wanted him to die in the future, he wouldn't even frown.
Gu Jiaojiao was also glad that she had lent a helping hand to Ye Yunfeng. Otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to obtain a hundred Emperor Pills, let alone three hundred.
Ye Yunfeng and Gu Jiaojiao returned to Ling Xiao's side, their faces filled with joy.
"Big Brother, aren't you going to inspect?
You have more Emperor Pills than Yuan Zhantian. It won't be a problem for you to become the first Emperor! "Ye Yunfeng said excitedly to Ling Xiao.
Gu Jiaojiao also smiled and said, "That's right. Brother Ling, quickly go and inspect. Let us bask in your glory."
Ling Xiao shook his head and smiled, "Don't be anxious. Don't you see that the major powers haven't gone up to inspect yet?"
Gu Jiaojiao was confused and asked, "What does it have to do with you that they haven't gone up to inspect?"
Ling Xiao shook his head and smiled without saying a word!
Ye Yunfeng, who was standing to the side, guessed what Ling Xiao was thinking. He immediately smiled and said, "Big Brother will definitely be the finale!"
Gu Jiaojiao came to her senses and immediately covered her mouth and chuckled. She thought to herself, "This guy really likes to be in the limelight!"
As the inspection neared its end, the major powers also began to enter the ranks of the inspection.
"Lu Shuang of the Lu Family harvested 300 to 500 Emperor Pills."
"Lu Ming of the Lu Family harvested 552 Emperor Pills."
"The devil of the Ghost Sect harvested 620 Emperor Pills."
"Wei Zhenyao of the Heaven-Splitting Sect harvested 612 Emperor Pills."
"Gu Yufei of the Gu Family harvested 631 Emperor Pills."
…
The harvest of these major powers was indeed much more than that of ordinary Earth Emperors. The lowest harvest of their leaders was more than 300.
When a Half-step Sovereign announced the Black Demon Sect's Devil Son's Emperor Elixir, it caused quite a stir. He had obtained nine hundred and ninety-eight Emperor Elixirs. He only needed two more Emperor Elixirs to break through the thousand mark.
"As expected of the Black Demon Sect's Devil Son. With this number, it's not impossible for him to obtain the title of the First Killer Emperor."
"It's hard to say. A few days ago, he ambushed Ling Xiao. At that time, I heard him say that the other nine members of the Black Demon Sect were all killed by Ling Xiao. I'm afraid that Ling Xiao has more Emperor Pills than him."
"That's right. Ling Xiao is truly a peerless dark horse that surpasses his peers!"
"Perhaps only that person from the Martial Spirit Court has the power to fight him."
…
None of the other powers that were announced could surpass the Devil Son. The closest to him were Shang Gong Yun of the Gong Family, Dongfang Jing of the Dongfang Family, and Huo Hao of the Medicine Sect.
The three of them had harvested 753 Emperor Pills, Dongfang Jing 812 Emperor Pills, and Huo Hao of the Medicine Sect 922 Emperor Pills.
These people were destined to become Earth Emperors in the ranks of the First Killer Emperor.
Now, only a few people had not come forward to inspect.
At this time, the leader of the Martial Spirit Court, Wu Bufan, finally slowly walked to the side of the Half-emperor elder who was inspecting.
The old man seemed to know Wu Bufan's identity, so he actually nodded slightly towards Wu Bufan. There was a hint of respect on his face.
Wu Bufan revealed his trademark smile. Then, with a flash of his spatial ring, a large pile of Emperor Pills appeared in front of everyone.
The surrounding Earth Emperors were already staring at them closely.
Suddenly seeing so many Emperor Pills, their eyes were about to be dizzy.
"So many Emperor Pills! I'm afraid it's not less than the Devil Son's!"
"No, it's more than a thousand. It's just that I don't know if it can reach two thousand."
"As expected of the world's number one pavilion. I'm afraid this new generation's leader is much more outstanding than the previous generation!"
"I'm afraid that the number one Emperor will be none other than him!"
"It's possible, but that Ling Xiao hasn't been inspected yet. Who knows, he might be an unexpected winner!"
…
