The Great Overlord: Simulating the Future, Dominating Speedrunning

Chapter 186 Daqian Tower, Demon Slayer List!
East of Yancheng,

On the street, people come and go, and all kinds of noise reach the sky.

Lu Chen and others were walking on the street. Looking around, they saw that almost half of the people had powerful fluctuations that were not weaker than the Earth Supreme.

On both sides of the street, there are endless shops, selling all kinds of rare elixirs and pills, and even some rare high-level holy objects, which attracted many monks to stop and watch.

"As expected of Yancheng, even high-level sacred objects are sold here. As expected... it's worthy of being a holy place for alchemy."

Seeing this, Su Qingyin couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, with a bit of amazement and envy in her tone.

You know, her master is only using a mid-level holy object now.

High-level holy objects can be seen for sale everywhere here. How rich and powerful must one be!

Xiao Lin smiled and nodded, his tone tinged with pride. "Of course. Yancheng is the core of our Endless Fire Region. Countless alchemists and fire-attributed cultivators gather here on a daily basis, so there's no shortage of rare resources."

"It's the Alchemy Competition right now, and it's attracting geniuses from all over the world."

"For this reason, all the shops have brought out a lot of their best items. I've never seen some of them before."

Lu Chen glanced around with a calm expression, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart at the profound heritage of the Endless Fire Domain.

The cultivators here are generally powerful. Any passerby may be a strong man at the Earth Supreme level, and you can even occasionally feel a few subtle auras of the Sky Supreme level.

This shows how terrifying the appeal of these alchemists in the Endless Fire Domain is.

Just then, there was a commotion ahead.

I saw a group of people gathered in front of a tall stone tablet, talking a lot. The stone tablet was engraved with densely packed names, emitting a faint light.

"We're here. The Demon Slayer List is ahead."

Xiao Lin pointed at the stone tablet in front and said with a smile.

Lu Chen and others immediately shifted their gaze and looked forward.

There, there was a huge ancient stone tablet tens of thousands of feet tall, standing quietly.

An extremely powerful spiritual energy fluctuation was emanating from the stone tablet. At the top of the stone tablet, three dazzling blood-red characters were flashing with red light, catching people's eyes, and also emitting a chilling chill.

"Devil Execution List!"

Lu Chen looked down, and the first thing that caught his eye was the name at the top of the ranking, which was purple-gold in color and exuded an endless sense of majesty.

Kill the Demon King, Qin Tian.

Beneath the Demon King Qin Tian, ​​there were countless shining characters. Looking closely, one could see many names...

Senior demon slayer, Liu Difeng.

Senior demon slayer, Lu Shan.

……

Intermediate Demon Slayer, Liu Feng.

……

Low-level demon slayer, Xuanyuan Mo.

Low-level demon slayer, Wu Tong.

……

Densely packed names were engraved on the Demon-Slaying Monument. As the spiritual light flashed, new names seemed to appear continuously, and the ranking of the entire list was constantly changing.

The only thing that remains unchanged is the name at the top.

That name, like a king, stood at the top of the Demon-Slaying Monument. On the street, countless people looked at that name with admiration in their eyes.

Lu Chen stared at the Demon-Slaying Monument for a long time before he looked away.

He thought to himself, "According to the information Xiao Lin provided, among those ten people, only Liu Feng, Xuanyuan Mo, and Wu Tong are currently on the list."

"The others probably haven't received the Demon Slaying Order yet."

At this moment, Su Qingyin looked at the tall stone tablet in front of her, a trace of confusion in her eyes, and said, "How is this list arranged? What is a Demon Slayer?"

Xiao Lin chuckled and said, "The Demon Slayer is the Earth Supreme who received the Demon Slayer Order in the Great Thousand Palace and is determined to kill the evil tribes from outside the domain."

"According to the rules of the Great Thousand Palace, as long as you receive the Demon Slayer Order, you will be considered a low-level Demon Slayer. And every time you kill an outsider evil creature, you will gain a certain amount of Demon Slayer Points."

"One of the outsider experts with the strength of a lower-level Earth Supreme is worth fifty Demon Slayer points. A higher-level Earth Supreme is worth one hundred points. If he is at the Great Perfection, it is worth two hundred points..."

"A Phantom Demon Emperor gets 3,000 points, a Mysterious Demon Emperor gets 5,000 points, and if you kill a Heavenly Demon Emperor, you'll gain 10,000 Demon Slayer points and be named the Demon Slayer King by the Great Thousand Palace. Your status is second only to the current Chief Elder of the Great Thousand Palace—Qin Tian."

"Then how are the levels of Demon Slayers divided?"

Su Qingyin raised her eyebrows, a hint of curiosity appearing on her face.

"As long as the Demon Slayer Points reach 1,000, you can upgrade from a low-level Demon Slayer to a mid-level one. 3,000 points will make you a high-level Demon Slayer."

"Generally speaking, once you reach the rank of High-level Demon Slayer, the Great Thousand Palace will grant you the title of Guest Official. Don't underestimate this title. The Great Thousand Palace holds an exceptional position in the Great Thousand World. Even the Five Great Ancient Clans are exceptionally courteous to it."

"When traveling in the Great Thousand World and facing top-tier forces, sometimes, the title of a guest official of the Great Thousand Palace is more prestigious than being an elder of one of the five ancient clans."

Xiao Lin said seriously.

At this time, Lu Chen frowned and suddenly said, "Killing a Heavenly Demon Emperor can earn you 10,000 Demon Killing Points. The Heavenly Demon Emperor is comparable to the Holy Grade Heavenly Supreme. He is not easy to kill, but are the Ghost Demon Emperor and the Mysterious Demon Emperor not easy to kill?"

"Why is Qin Tian the only Demon Slayer King on the Demon Slayer List?"

Hearing this, Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, and before he could speak.

Xiao Xiao stepped forward, looked at Lu Chen, and said calmly: "Although the Ghost Demon Emperor and the Mysterious Demon Emperor are not as good as the Heavenly Demon Emperor, they are not something that can be killed by just anyone."

"On the one hand, the evil race outside the domain is tenacious and powerful. If you want to completely wipe out the vitality of a powerful Demon Emperor, unless you have overwhelming strength, otherwise, it will be a waste of effort."

"On the other hand, the evil tribes outside the domain are extremely cunning and secretive. Even the Phantom Demon Emperor and the Black Demon Emperor rarely act alone. To kill them, not only does one need great strength, but also sufficient luck and timing."

"The reason why Demon King Qin Tian was able to kill the Heavenly Demon Emperor back then was not only because of his immense strength, but also because he happened to encounter a space-time storm and was transported to the domain of the Outer Domain Demon Clan, catching them off guard."

"Since then, Qin Tian has been the only Demon Slayer in Daqian Palace, and no one has been able to surpass him to this day."

When Lu Chen heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, he nodded, and then said no more.

With the memories of his previous life, he naturally knew that Qin Tian, ​​the Demon Slayer King, was deliberately released by the evil tribe outside the domain. Otherwise, how could he, alone, escape from the land outside the domain where the thirty-two major tribes were stationed?

A Saint-grade Heavenly Supreme is also a formidable existence in the evil clan outside the domain. If one of them dies, it will be enough to shock the entire clan outside the domain. How can they let him go easily?
"Alright, now that we've looked at the Demon Slayer List, let's quickly go to Daqian Building to get the Demon Slayer Order."

"A lot of people have come to Yancheng now. If we go too late, we will probably have to wait for a long time."

At this time, Xiao Lin spoke up to remind them. Hearing this, everyone nodded and immediately walked towards the Demon Slaying Monument in the distance.

Not long after, the group quickly shuttled through the city. After nearly half an incense stick of time, they slowly stopped.

At this time, Lu Chen and others had already arrived under the huge Demon-Slaying Monument.

And below the Demon-Slaying Monument, there stood a black pavilion. A heavy sense of oppression emanated from the hall, making people involuntarily restrain their expressions.

Above the pavilion, there hangs a blood-red plaque with some large characters written in a flamboyant style.

"Daqian Tower!"

"This is the Daqian Building, let's go in."

Xiao Lin pointed at the black attic and said.

The group walked straight into the Daqian Building, and their view suddenly widened. The attic on the first floor was extremely large, with a crystal chandelier suspended in the air, emitting bright light that illuminated the entire attic.

The attic seemed like a restaurant, with people coming and going and constant noise.

Lu Chen's gaze fixed on the east side of the attic, where he saw a number of figures emitting powerful spiritual energy and shouting continuously.

"Team up to hunt down the demon general! The team already has three Earth Supremes, and we're still short of a high-level Spirit Formation Master who's skilled in formations. The rewards are generous, come join us now!"

"The Demon King's trail has been discovered, and we urgently need a strong man proficient in the art of tracking! The team has a Quasi-Heavenly Supreme in charge, this is a rare opportunity, sign up quickly!"

"We are purchasing intelligence on the extraterritorial evil tribes at a high price, especially the whereabouts of the Ghost Demon Emperor and the Black Demon Emperor. The reward is negotiable!"

……

Various shouts came one after another, and some people even argued fiercely for a piece of information, making the entire Daqian Building noisy.

"That's the recruitment area. Generally, when leaving the Endless Fire Territory and heading out to hunt the foreign evil tribes, they must go out in a team. Otherwise, if they go alone, the survival rate is not high."

Xiao Lin followed Lu Chen's gaze and explained in a low voice.

Lu Chen nodded, then looked into the depths of the pavilion, where there was a counter.

On the wall behind the counter, there is a spiritual light curtain. The light curtain keeps flashing, and many names appear from time to time, which is obviously synchronized with the Demon Slayer List outside.

At the counter, there was an old man in a crimson robe sitting upright, with many red spots on his old face.

The old man had been looking down at the jade token on the counter, but suddenly he raised his head, his eyes like lightning, staring straight at Lu Chen and the others.

His gaze lingered on Lu Chen for a moment, a strange color flashing in his eyes. He then turned to Xiao Lin and said slowly, "Young Territory Lord, are you here to receive the Demon Slayer mission?"

Xiao Lin stepped forward, bowed, and said with a smile, "Elder Chihuo, I'm here to bring two friends to receive the Demon Slayer Order. As for the Demon Slayer missions, if there are any suitable ones, please give them to me."

Upon hearing this, the old man known as the Red Fire Elder's eyes flashed with surprise. He pointed at Lu Chen and said, "Young Territory Master, isn't this someone from your Endless Fire Territory? With such pure fire attribute spiritual power and the aura of the Burning Technique, I shouldn't have recognized him wrongly, right?"

Xiao Lin touched his nose and said unnaturally: "Although Brother Lu has practiced the skills of my Endless Fire Domain, he has obtained my father's permission and has not joined the Endless Fire Domain."

"The matter is quite complicated and difficult to explain at once. Elder Chihuo should first issue the Demon Slaying Orders to the two of them."

Elder Chihuo nodded without saying anything more. He just waved his hand, and Lu Chen and Su Qingyin suddenly felt a pain in their fingertips.

Two drops of blood shot out from their fingertips and hovered in front of the red-robed old man.

Then, the old man snapped his fingers, and two rays of light shot out, merging with the two drops of blood, and then turned into two black tokens, flying into the hands of Lu Chen and others.

Lu Chen took the token and saw the blood-red words "Demon Slayer" on it, and at the bottom of the token were the words "Low-level Demon Slayer".

"If you kill an alien demon, as long as you shatter a strand of its demon soul and inject it into the Demon Slaying Order, you will gain the corresponding Demon Slaying Points. In addition, the Demon Slaying Order is refined with your essence and blood. Only you can detect the Demon Slaying Points within it, so even if others obtain it, it will be useless."

The red-robed old man explained.

"Thank you, senior."

Lu Chen and Su Qingyin nodded and clasped their fists towards the old man.

"You're welcome... Eh..."

Suddenly, Elder Chihuo's eyes focused and he looked towards the entrance of the pavilion.

Seeing this, Lu Chen and others looked over with curiosity.

The group of people who walked into the pavilion at this time were obviously very imposing.

The first one was an old woman in red. She had a cold expression on her face and no spiritual energy in her body. She looked as if she had never cultivated spiritual energy.

But this is obviously impossible...

Being able to restrain one's spiritual power to such a level that it is not noticeable at all is something that even the most perfect Earth Supreme cannot do so thoroughly.

Obviously, this is a powerful person at the level of Heavenly Supreme!
Behind the old woman, there were several men and women. One of them had a graceful figure that attracted many eyes in the Daqian Building.

She was a girl wearing crimson purple clothes. She had a tall figure, especially a pair of straight and round legs. Wrapped in the slim trousers, she had a breathtaking beauty.

She has a bright face, eyes as bright as stars, and her ponytail dances lightly with her steps. She has a heroic posture that is eye-catching.

"The people from the Wen family in the Northern Territory have arrived..."

"Brother Lu, if I'm not mistaken, the senior leading the group should be Senior Hepo from the Wen family. She's a powerful being at the Spiritual Grade Heavenly Supreme level..."

Xiao Lin moved closer to Lu Chen and spoke in a low voice.

Lu Chen nodded, his eyes passing He Po and the beautiful woman, and fell on the second-in-command of the team.

It was a man in a white robe with a handsome face and an imposing bearing. His body faintly emanated the spiritual power fluctuations of a half-step supreme perfection.

Obviously, the man in white robe is Wen Ziyu from the Wen family.

"Old man Chihuo, please issue some Demon Slaying Orders to these kids behind me."

The old woman in red said in a hoarse voice before walking to the counter.

Elder Chihuo nodded slightly, waved his sleeves, and after a few breaths, several demon-killing orders shot towards Wen Ziyu and others.

"Let's go and find a place to rest first."

After receiving the Demon-Slaying Order, the old woman in red did not stop. She waved to the people behind her and prepared to take them away first.

And after they left,
Xiao Lin turned to Lu Chen and said, "Brother Lu, we have the Demon Slayer Order. Let's go to the Burning Heaven Tower."

Lu Chen nodded, a hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes, and said: "I have heard about the mystery of the Burning Heaven Spirit Fire for a long time, and I must see it this time."

Xiao Lin laughed heartily, his tone filled with pride: "Brother Lu, don't worry, I promise I won't let you down."

The group immediately left the Daqian Building and headed towards the Burning Heaven Tower.
