4216 A Perilous Place
The Realm Battlefield formed by the collision between the Profound Energy Land and the Zen Boundary Land was called the Profound Zen Battlefield.
Duan Ling Tian had been nervous and frightened during his first visit to the Profound Zen Battlefield. At that time, he was lucky enough to meet Ye Bei Yuan, an elder from the Glorious Heaven Sect. Ye Bei Yuan had escorted him to the safe base, and he was able to leave the Profound Zen Battlefield through the safe base’s Transportation Formation.
On the contrary, not only was Duan Ling Tian, who entered the Profound Zen Battlefield with Yang Yu Chen, his Third Senior Brother, fearless and not nervous, but he was also slightly excited.
After appearing at a base camp, Yang Yu Chen said, “After entering the battlefield, you’ll receive a battle merit token.”
As soon as Yang Yu Chen’s voice fell, a token that emitted a faint yellow light promptly appeared in the air in front of Duan Ling Tian.
“There’s nothing etched on the token. The yellow light represents the Profound Energy Land. As for the Zen Boundary Light, it’s represented by a red light. Each battle merit token is unique. If you die, your battle merit token will shatter, and the battle merits you accumulate will go to the person who killed you. However, you won’t obtain any battle merits if the person you killed has a lower cultivation base than you. For example, if I kill you now, I won’t obtain any of your battle merits at all. Conversely, if you kill me, you’ll obtain double the battle merits I have. Killing someone whose cultivation base is a realm higher will give you double battle merits. If you kill someone whose cultivation base is two realms above yours, you’ll receive triple battle merits. However, you need to pay attention to something when killing an opponent with a higher cultivation base. Make sure that your opponent doesn’t engage in a fight for a day and a night before killing him or her. Otherwise, you won’t get the double battle merits. This is to prevent people from taking advantage of the situation and swooping in at the last moment to steal the kill.”
Yang Yu Chen’s explanation helped Duan Ling Tian to understand the Profound Zen Battlefield more. He asked curiously, “Third Senior Brother, I heard that the battle merit token that appears out of thin air not only records battle merits, but after accumulating enough battle merits, it can also open a secret realm on the Realm Battlefield. Apart from that, does it have any other functions?”
Yang Yu Chen replied, “Apart from opening a secret realm, you can also choose to exchange for a supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy after you accumulate enough battle merits. However, I’m sure you know that a supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy is useless to you until you become a Supreme God.”
Duan Ling Tian had long heard about the supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy. It was the energy that supreme powerhouses drew out of their bodies, and it could temporarily boost the Divine Energy of a Supreme God.
If a rudimentary Supreme God absorbed the Divine Energy of a supreme powerhouse, he or she would temporarily have the Divine Energy comparable to an intermediate Supreme God. If an intermediate Supreme God were to absorb it, he or she would have the Divine Energy of an advanced Supreme God for a short time. As for advanced Supreme Gods, their Divine Energies would grow stronger as well, but it would not be comparable to that of a supreme powerhouse. It was impossible for an advanced Supreme God to possess Divine Energy comparable to that of a supreme powerhouse even if it were only temporary.
Duan Ling Tian looked at Yang Yu Chen and asked curiously through Voice Transmission, “Third Senior Brother, do you possess energy from a supreme powerhouse?”
In Duan Ling Tian’s opinion, Yang Yu Chen was among the strongest intermediate Supreme Gods. If Yang Yu Chen were to use the Divine Energy of a supreme powerhouse, very few advanced Supreme Gods would be his match.
Yang Yu Chen nodded. “Yes. In fact, I have four strands of Divine Energy from a supreme powerhouse. They were given to me by Eldest Senior Sister and Second Senior Brother. Junior brother, you’re an advanced Emperor of Gods now. No one knows when you’ll enter the realm of a Supreme God. Before we leave the base camp, I’ll give you two strands of Divine Energy.”
Upon hearing this, Duan Ling Tian shook his head and said, “Third Senior Brother, you only have four strands of energy. You should keep them for yourself. I won’t be able to use it now. Don’t worry. Once I become a Supreme God, I’ll obtain the supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy myself….”
“Just accept it…. It takes a lot to exchange for a supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy,” Yang Yu Chen said, “The energy can be a lifesaver. Even if you can’t defeat your opponent, you’ll be able to escape from your opponent with it…”
Duan Ling Tian said seriously, “I know. That’s why I won’t accept your kind gesture.”
Yang Yu Chen said insistently, “Just take it. It was given to me by Eldest Senior Sister and Second Senior Brother. If they were here, they’d definitely support my decision to give it to you.”
In the end, Duan Ling Tian could only give in to Yang Yu Chen.
“Alright, let’s leave the base camp.”
Yang Yu Chen led Duan Ling Tian out of the base camp. The base camp was relatively small, and there were not many people. Since fights were prohibited in base camps, it was peaceful and quiet.
When Duan Ling Tian and Yang Yu Chen left, only a few people glanced at them briefly. No one paid attention to them. After all, there was no lack of people who came to the Realm Battlefield in the past years. Those who came were brave and determined to grow stronger. Those who were timid were unlikely to enter the Realm Battlefield.
…
After obtaining a battle merit token, one could choose to wear it at one’s waist or one could integrate it with one’s body. If worn at the waist, the token would shine. However, if one chose to integrate it with one’s body, one’s body would shine. The colors of the lights naturally depended on where one was from.
Duan Ling Tian and Yang Yu Chen wore the battle merit tokens at their waists, and their tokens both glowed with a yellow light, indicating that they were from the Profound Energy Land.
‘Back then, I remember Elder Ye Bei Yuan’s body glowed with a faint yellow light…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, recalling that the elder from the Glorious Heaven Sect, who accompanied him to a base camp and saved his life, had been glowing faintly in the past.
‘I also remember seeing some people emitting a faint red light. There were also those whose tokens shone at their waists just like me and Third Senior Brother…’
Duan Ling Tian could vividly remember his first time on the Realm Battlefield.
Meanwhile, after leading Duan Ling Tian to a quiet valley, Yang Yu Chen said as he raised his hand, “Junior brother, I’ll give you the supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy now.”
Following that, a ball of energy appeared in Yang Yu Chen’s hand. It was not ostentatious and was somewhat transparent, but Duan Ling Tian felt greatly pressured as soon as it appeared. It was as though it was a great threat.
“You can store it in your spatial ring. However, remember not to let it touch your skin if you don’t intend to use it. Otherwise, it’ll instantly integrate with your body as soon as it makes contact with your skin,” Yang Yu Chen warned Duan Ling Tian before he extended his hand toward Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian raised his hand, carefully using his Divine Energy to draw the supreme powerhouse’s Divine Energy into his spatial ring.
“Alright, let’s go. Let’s see if we run into any good opponents,” Yang Yu Chen said, “I’ll let you deal with the ordinary rudimentary Supreme Gods and advanced Emperor of Gods we come across. If you can’t defeat them, I’ll make my move. As for those below the realm of an advanced Emperor of Gods, it’s meaningless to kill them. You won’t obtain their battle merits, and their spatial rings will likely self-destruct after their deaths as well.”
After a beat, Yang Yu Chen continued to say, “However, not everyone is the same. There are people who don’t care about rewards when they kill. Just because they won’t get any rewards, it doesn’t mean that they won’t kill. After all, they’ll be helping their companions from the same Realm of Gods by killing opponents from another Realm of Gods.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded in agreement. He was naturally aware of this. In the past, he knew having a low cultivation base did not mean that he was safe on the Realm Battlefield. After all, it’s not just killing for their comrades, but others could kill him on a whim. That was also why he had been nervous when he first came to the Profound Zen Battlefield.
Yang Yu Chen said, “Apart from that, many people think that a Realm Battlefield is formed from the collision of two Realms of Gods. However, that’s not exactly true. Four Realms of Gods have to collide to form a Realm Battlefield. However, the battlefield would be separated into two, and every 100 years, it would become one again for ten years. At that time, the battlefield will become an even more perilous place, and it’ll be very chaotic. It’d be the battlefield for four Realms of Gods instead of two. Needless to say, when the battlefield is one, it also has the most opportunities.” After a brief pause, he continued to say, “There’s still some time before the battlefield becomes one. By the time that happens, you’ll be wandering the battlefield alone.”
Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed. ‘Four Realms of Gods… Is it possible for the Divine Offering Land to be one of the Realms of Gods connected to the Profound Zen Battlefield?”
If that was not the case, Duan Ling Tian would have to go to the Divine Offering Land’s Realm Battlefield.
