Yi Hongâs demeanor was very humble. However, Dongbo Xueying had been trapped for six years and often chatted with the extraordinary alchemical creatures, the monkey and the bird. Therefore, he was very clear that in any era, there would be special organizations like the âLongshan Towerâ that monitored the world! The Great Emperor Longshan established the empire, so this organization was called âLongshan Towerâ.
Like the âFierce Bear Great Emperorâ who once emerged from the Xia clan, unifying the world and establishing an empire, the organization monitoring the world at that time was called âFierce Bear Hallâ.
The names changed, but the essence remained the same!
They all monitored the world and served the extraordinary beings.
Yi Hong, who could serve as the head of intelligence for a province, held a rather special position. For someone like Dongbo Xueying, a true extraordinary being, killing a pseudo-extraordinary being was a trivial matter! However, if he killed the head of intelligence for a province, it would be a slap in the face of the âLongshan Towerâ! There would be a lot of trouble, and he might even be taken to the Flame World for punishment!
"Lord Yi Hong came quite quickly," Dongbo Xueying said with a smile. "Let's go inside and sit down to chat slowly."
"Iâm not in a hurry. Lord Dongbo, would you like to spend some time with your parents first?" Yi Hong said.
"Haha... Iâll be at home for a while, so thereâs no rush," Dongbo Xueying replied. He had accompanied his parents back from the Doyu County in the Dongyu Province, and they had chatted for a long time on the way. Now it was more suitable for his parents and younger brother to have more interaction.
Dongbo Xueying and Yi Hong then walked into the castle.
They soon sat down in a pavilion in a corridor, with no one else around.
"I was quite surprised to learn that Lord Dongbo survived the Blackwind Abyss and crossed into the extraordinary realm at the age of 28. In the entire Longshan Empire, itâs rare to have such a person in a thousand years. The last one close to you was Lord Chiqiu Bai, the Longfeng Knight of our Anyang Province," Yi Hong said. "However, Lord Chiqiu Bai only crossed into the extraordinary realm at the age of 31, three years later than you. Now, Lord Chiqiu Bai is the top person on the Saint List, and I believe Lord Dongbo will also be listed on the Saint List in the future."
"Top of the Saint List?" Dongbo Xueying was surprised.
"Lord Dongbo, you may not be very familiar with it, but from ancient times to the present, there have always been the Saint List and the Demigod List for extraordinary beings," Yi Hong explained. "The path of cultivation for extraordinary beings is divided into three major realms: Flying, Saint, and Demigod. The vast majority are only at the Flying level. If one can cross into the Saint level, they can be considered a pillar of our Xia clan. If one becomes a Demigod, they are truly the most elite existence."
"The Saint List consists of thirty individuals, including humans, magical beasts, and natives of the extraordinary world."
"The Demigod List consists of ten individuals."
Yi Hong flipped his hand, and two long scrolls appeared. "These are the two lists, drafted by the Flame World."
Dongbo Xueying took them.
He had long known about the Saint List and the Demigod List, which were meant to encourage extraordinary beings to strive further in their cultivation! However, Dongbo Xueying did not expect that Chiqiu Bai would be the top of the Saint List!
It should be noted that humans, magical beasts, and natives of the extraordinary world are all included in the list. Magical beasts have extremely high physical talents, and according to previous knowledge, most of the time, the top of the Saint List is a powerful magical beast!
Dongbo Xueying carefully read the list.
"Top of the Saint List: Longfeng Knight âChiqiu Baiâ, Elder of the Water Source Daoist Temple, who started with the essence of all things' wind and mastered the âSpace Cutting True Meaningâ. He is difficult to track when moving and can instantly appear anywhere. The âSpace Cuttingâ True Meaning is unresistable at the Saint level. Major achievements: Defeated the Demigod âGhost Knightâ Feng Dong in a direct confrontation and killed the native Demigod âWind Roar Kingâ."
"Second on the Saint List: Lord Beru, a magical beast, who started with the essence of all things' water and mastered the âImmortality True Meaningâ. His body is extremely strong and can instantly recover even when severely injured. He is extremely formidable in close combat. Major achievements: Fought with Chiqiu Bai for an hour before being defeated and rescued by a Demigod from the Witch God Temple."
"Third on the Saint List: Blood Demon God, the supreme leader of the small extraordinary world âBlood Demon Worldâ. With the power of the world, no one has been able to defeat him in the Blood Demon World."
"Fourth on the Saint List..."
He carefully read each one.
Dongbo Xueying was amazed.
Among the top five on the Saint List, only one was human: Chiqiu Bai! This was mainly because humans were too weak in physical talent.
However, from the sixth to the tenth, four were humans.
From the eleventh to the thirtieth, fifteen were humans.
"Of the thirty on the Saint List, twenty are humans, five are magical beasts, and five are natives of the extraordinary world," Lord Yi Hong said. "Those who can enter the Saint List are all quite remarkable and have the potential to advance to the Demigod level. Especially the Longfeng Knight Chiqiu Bai... He is the most brilliant genius of our era. He has mastered the extremely terrifying âSpace Cutting True Meaningâ, and he is only about three hundred years old. He is almost certain to cross into the Demigod level! Perhaps he will become the strongest Demigod and top the Demigod List."
Dongbo Xueying then looked at the other long scroll.
This was the Demigod List.
It should be noted that deities can stay in the human world for a maximum of ten thousand years. Once the ten thousand years are up, they will be expelled from the material world! The Longshan Empire has been established for over nine thousand years, and the Great Emperor Longshan had already been over a thousand years old when he became a deity. Given the long time since the establishment of the empire, it is clear that the Great Emperor Longshan has been forced to leave the material world.
Now, there are no deities in the entire world! Demigods are the strongest.
"These are the ten most powerful beings in the world," Yi Hong said beside him.
Dongbo Xueying observed the Demigod List.
"Top of the Demigod List: Lord Heyuan of the Black and White Divine Mountain, at the peak of the Demigod level, who has condensed the âTrue God Heartâ."
"Second on the Demigod List: Fire Demon Great Emperor, the supreme leader of the Fire Demon World, who has condensed the âTrue God Heartâ."
"Third on the Demigod List: Great Elder Oran of the Witch God Temple, who has mastered the âLife True Meaningâ."
"Fourth on the Demigod List..."
He quickly read through each one.
The Demigod List consists of ten individuals, four of whom have condensed the âTrue God Heartâ.
Yi Hong said beside him, "Lord Heyuan is the strongest Demigod, with unfathomable power and no known equal. The Fire Demon Great Emperor... generally remains in the Fire Demon World, and at most sends a clone to the human world, which is not a significant threat. On the contrary, this Great Elder of the Witch God Temple is our most terrifying enemy."
"Most terrifying?" Dongbo Xueying was taken aback.
"Yes, although he has not condensed the True God Heart and only mastered the âTrue Meaningâ, he has mastered the âLife True Meaningâ. He can transform magical beasts into humans, creating true human bodies that show no signs of being fake!" Yi Hong sighed. "The Witch God Temple has many infiltrators among us humans, and the source of these infiltrators is this Great Elder."
"His threat is too great. We humans have always wanted to kill this Great Elder of the Witch God Temple, but his whereabouts are hard to trace, and with his mastery of the Life True Meaning, we have not been able to kill him." There was a hint of frustration in Yi Hongâs eyes, but he then smiled. "Of course, this is too far beyond our reach. He is one of the top three beings in the world, so let the Demigods worry about it."
