Chapter 202
Su Xiaobai withdrew his finger, his expression indifferent⊠as if the one he had just killed was not a Martial Emperor-level threat that had troubled Earthâs humanity for years, but merely a slightly larger ant.
Indeed.
Now that Su Xiaobaiâs panel strength had reached Third-tier Martial Emperor level, the power of all his techniques had improved across the boardâŠ
Whether it was blood energy bursts, life attributes, or enhancements from other artsâthey had all doubled in effect.
Killing a mere Third-tier Martial Emperor was as easy as turning his hand!
But Su Xiaobai still exercised restraint.
The reason he had used spiritual power to slay Qi Chan was precisely out of concern that using too much raw force might accidentally shatter Qi Chanâs spatial ring.
So the moment Qi Chan died, Su Xiaobai quickly retrieved his spatial ring.
Not only his.
But also those of the Siwu Clanâs high-ranking members, and all the sacrificial victims throughout the entire Zefeng Giant CityâŠ
Su Xiaobai gathered all of their spatial rings!
This was an entire giant cityâbillions of lives, plus the wealth of numerous Martial Emperors!
The sheer value was unimaginable!
âHm?â
Just then, Su Xiaobai seemed to sense something.
It felt like⊠a strange benevolence!
He looked up toward the sky⊠that odd sense of goodwill seemed to come from above, bestowing upon him a slight benefit.
But the strange sensation quickly faded.
âA technique effect?â
Su Xiaobai pondered briefly.
Getting no answer, he dismissed the thought.
His gaze turned to the empty Zefeng Giant City.
âOriginally, Iâd intended to leave some spark for the Siwu Clanâto possibly help expand humanityâs territory in the process⊠but in the end, they were all sacrificed by Qi Chan.â
âStill, this works. Now, this entire territory of the Siwu Clan⊠shall belong to Earthâs humanity!â
It was only a matter of time before Earthâs humans stepped into the Vast Domain.
Instead of slowly pioneering settlements from scratch, why not just take over existing cities?
Moreover, the Vast Domain already housed billions of different racesâŠ
Cities like Senluo Cloud City, Fanya Sacred Cityâall were places where the peoples of different clans mingled and interacted.
Naturally, humans could also live among the countless races of the Vast Domain.
âTime to return.â
Su Xiaobaiâs silhouette flickeredâ
And vanished from the spot.
âŠ
Meanwhile, at the peak of a cliff somewhere in the Vast Domain, two massive stone monuments stood towering into the clouds, nearly 30,000 meters high.
One was called the âKarma Tabletâ and the other, the âMerit Tabletâ.
The two stood side by side.
Around them, sentinels from countless racesâover ten thousand intelligence operativesâkept watch day and night, constantly monitoring any changes on the stone tablets.
Upon these two monoliths, densely packed names were inscribed.
The Karma Tablet bore names carved in blood-red characters.
There were over a hundred million entries, each belonging to a being of monstrous evil and immense karmic sin.
The higher the name on the listâcloser to the skyâthe greater the karma.
The first name at the very top was so saturated in blood that even Martial Saints dared not look at it directly.
A single glance felt like being thrown into a mountain of corpses and a sea of bloodâIts aura of savagery was unimaginably dreadful!
By contrast, the Merit Tablet bore names inscribed in golden light.
It too had over a hundred million names.
Unlike the Karma Tablet, those listed on the Merit Tablet each bore great virtue.
Not only did they receive blessings, protections, and benefits from the Heavenly Dao, but even their descendants, kin, and entire race would share in these benefits.
Just moments agoâ
On the Karma Tablet, the name âQi Chanâ appeared.
The nearby watchers immediately recorded it, relaying the intel so various organizations could issue bounties and begin the hunt for Qi Chanâs life!
But shortly after the intel was transmittedâ Qi Chanâs name vanished.
At the exact same timeâ
At the far end of the Merit Tablet, a golden name disappeared, and a new golden name quietly emerged.
Someone noticed the change and shifted their gaze.
âSu, Xiao, Bai?â
âWhoâs that?â
âThat name doesnât seem tied to any known race on the Myriad Races Ranking?â
âQi Chanâs name vanished, and this one appeared⊠he mustâve been the one who killed him, thus earning merit.â
The watchers swiftly dispatched this intel as well, then turned their focus back to the changing names.
At this moment, Su Xiaobaiâs name quietly inscribed itself onto the Merit Tabletâ
And in this subtle way, entered the awareness of all major races across the Vast Domain.
However, none of them knew who âSu Xiaobaiâ really was.
All they knew was: Sculpted Moon Azure Dragon.
âŠ
Su Xiaobai returned to the space riftâs edge.
âEmperor Su!â
The moment his aura emerged, all the human Martial Kings cleaning up the battlefield immediately bowed in respect.
They sensed itâ
Su Xiaobaiâs cultivation realm had changed from Sub-Transcendent to true Transcendent!
Even though Su Xiaobai was deliberately suppressing it, the residual aura leaking from him was enough to strike fear into the hearts of these powerful Martial Kings!
Clearly, something world-shaking had happened to Su Xiaobai in just that short span of time.
âEmperor Su!â
Luo Yu hurried over and saluted.
In the Vast Domain, age meant nothingâ
Only strength and realm mattered!
âWhat happened to the Siwu Clan?â
Luo Yuâs eyes were filled with hope.
âQi Chan is dead. Earthâs crisis is fully resolved.â
The moment Su Xiaobai said thisâ
BOOM!!!!!!
All the human Martial Kings erupted in joyous cheers!
They had won!
Finallyâvictory!
With the death of the Siwu Clan leader, the clan had no power left to retaliateâŠ
This crisis for humanity was now completely over!
âThatâs wonderful!â
Luo Yu let out a long sigh of relief.
The anxiety weighing on his chest finally eased.
In fact, from the moment Su Xiaobai arrived, the moment Luo Yu sensed his ordinary Transcendent aura and the terrifying energy leaking from himâ
He had already guessed most of it.
âEmperor Su, what did you do with the Siwu Clan?â
Luo Yu asked again.
âThey were wiped out.â
Su Xiaobai replied.
âWhat?!â
Luo Yuâs expression turned instantly horrified, his eyes full of fear.
Other Martial Kings nearby noticed the commotion and turned their heads.
Seeing Luo Yuâs terrified face, they were puzzled.
They had never seen Luo Yu lose his composure like thisâŠ
Not even in life-and-death moments had he shown fearâonly battle spirit.
Why now?
âRelax. I too despised the Siwu Clanâbut Iâm not some bloodthirsty butcher⊠It was Qi Chan, the Siwu leader.â
âHe sacrificed his entire clanâthey all died with him.â
Su Xiaobai gave Luo Yu a glance and asked in confusion, âLord Luo, why do you look so particularly shocked?â
âThatâs a relief⊠thatâs a reliefâŠâ
Luo Yu finally exhaled and nodded, âI forgot to tell you about the karma records. I feared that if you went too far in your rage and wiped out the whole clan, youâd be inscribed on the Karma Tablet⊠and then every race would hunt you down.â
