Chapter 1643

Due to Jin Shi's defeat and escape, the entire foreign race army had lost their morale and completely collapsed. They no longer tried to attack the Great City Barrier Formation in vain and instead ran around the city towards the Dax Plains.

During this period of time, the humans were still chasing after them.

Because all of the Nine Heavens were either tied down or focused on escaping, no one paid any attention to Zi Chen. Thus, during the chase, Zi Chen was like a fish in water, killing happily.

His contribution points were rapidly increasing.

"Die."

A cold shout rang out as the silver spear stabbed into the back of a foreign race's heart. Then, the spear began to devour and feed back energy. Zi Chen, who had expended a lot of energy, was instantly replenished.

Seeing that the humans had expended a lot of energy, the other foreign races who were gradually gathering towards Zi Chen were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene and turned to run.

Zi Chen smiled coldly and pulled out his saber, drawing another perfect saber light circle.

This time, they chased all the way to the Dax Plains. Along the way, the foreign race army had suffered heavy casualties. The humans swept away their previous grievances and killed to their heart's content.

However, once they entered the foreign race's territory, the army stopped. However, there were still some humans who chased after them.

The situation had already stabilized. If they continued to chase, they might be at a disadvantage. Xu Hou brought his people back to Imperial Sky City.

Old Man Shink received the news and closed the Great City Barrier Formation, allowing the army to enter the city.

Right now, only the surviving humans were left in the city. They gathered together and witnessed the arrival of the human army.

The leader, Xu Hou, walked over. His gaze swept across everyone as he nodded and said, "Well done."

Around Xu Hou, there was an invisible pressure. This pressure fell on the Seven Heavens, causing them to feel suffocated. Hearing Xu Hou's praise, not only did they not feel proud, they were so nervous that they did not even dare to breathe loudly.

"I heard that your leader is called Zi Chen. Which one is he?" Xu Hou asked indifferently.

"Sir, Leader Zi Chen is not here," Shuntian said.

"Call him over to see me," Xu Hou said indifferently.

"He went out to hunt foreign races and has not returned yet," Shuntian replied indifferently. This time, his tone was not as polite as it should be.

"Hmm." Xu Hou frowned slightly and glanced at Shuntian. "So this is your attitude."

A huge pressure emerged, and Shuntian groaned and took two steps back, his face pale.

The existences on the ranking board were indeed powerful.

Those who were close to the Path of Heaven also felt great pressure.

"We suffered hundreds of casualties to take down the Royal Sky City. Could it be that this is the treatment we deserve?" Shuntian coldly stated, withstanding the pressure.

"You guys did it."

Xu Hou swept a glance at Shuntian Dao, and a mocking smile flashed across his lips. "Everyone has a share in taking down this city. As for you little Seventh Stage fellows, you actually feel that you have contributed greatly. Don't forget, who was the one who provided you with these things."

Shuntian was speechless. It was true that the items were provided by the people of the Royal Sky Region, but they were only refined weapons. The main enhancement effects were all added by Zi Chen.

If it weren't for the fact that they wanted to take down this city, they wouldn't have launched an attack in advance.

This way, there wouldn't be hundreds of casualties. Moreover, with Zi Chen, they could be self-sufficient. There was no meaning in taking down this city.

But now, after taking down this city with heavy casualties, they received such treatment.

"There is no right or wrong in the Battlefield of Despair. There is only life and death, and only obedience."

Glancing at these little brats at the seventh stage, Xu Hou said coldly, "Tell Zi Chen to come see me when he returns. Of course, if he dies outside, pretend that I didn't say anything. Next, you guys have to regroup and fight against the foreign races."

After that, Xu Hou laughed mockingly. "You guys only killed a few foreign races, and you think that you have contributed greatly."

A few foreign races?

For the sake of that ninth stage foreign race, Zi Chen almost gave up his life.

Hundreds of people were furious. But in the face of such a huge difference in strength, they couldn't speak at all.

As for the other cultivators who came with Xu Hou, they were all looking at Shuntian Dao and the others mockingly.

"Buzz."

Suddenly, the entire city trembled. This caused everyone's expression to change. They thought that the foreign races were invading again.

A dazzling golden light appeared from somewhere in the Imperial Sky City, illuminating the entire city.

Looking at the source of the golden light, many of the seventh-stage cultivators were puzzled. It was their first time coming to the Imperial Sky City. They didn't know what was in the city.

Among the crowd, Wharton's eyes flashed as he exclaimed, "It's the place of the Weapon List of Despair. Could it be that someone has successfully entered the list?"

Wharton didn't care about anything else and directly flew towards the Weapon List of Despair.

Shuntian Dao and the others were also curious as they followed closely behind Wharton.

After that, even more people rushed over.

The Weapon List of Despair. Ever since Xu Hou reached the 655th position a thousand years ago, this position had never changed. At this moment, the towering stone board was emitting golden light. Someone must have entered the top 655.

And the most likely possibility was to squeeze into the 655th position, squeezing out Xu Hou's name.

Normally, those eighth or ninth-stage cultivators wouldn't care. But now, killing a seventh-stage cultivator wouldn't even increase their contribution points. Naturally, they wouldn't care about a mere seventh-stage cultivator's ranking.

But today, Xu Hou was present. Moreover, Xu Hou's name was most likely to be squeezed out of the rankings. This caused everyone to be very curious. Hence, they all flew towards the Weapon List of Despair.

The towering Weapon List could be seen from afar. Usually, this was a pitch-black list with only the words on it being golden. But today, the entire list was emitting a dazzling golden light.

Within the golden light, there were names representing powerful existences. The first name was Long Fei, and the golden words were resplendent.

After that, the names were listed one by one. At the 655th position, Xu Hou's name was Xu Hou.

Xu Hou's current contribution points were 2,056. His name was still at the 655th position, not dropping at all.

Looking at the Weapon List of Despair that didn't change, everyone was puzzled. Since the rankings didn't change, why was the board emitting golden light?

Xu Hou stood afar with a gloomy expression. He knew that it wasn't that the rankings didn't change, but that the time wasn't right.

"It should be him." After closing the grand array, Old Man Schenker rushed over, looking at the board with anticipation.

"Hum."

The Weapon List of Despair trembled again, and the golden light on the list became even more dazzling. But this time, the ninety-nine names on the list were all restrained. Only Xu Hou's name was still shining with golden light.

Xu Hou's two words were resplendent and dazzling.

This represented the glory of the past. Even if it was about to fade, it was still shining with a dazzling golden light, telling people of the past glory.

But Xu Hou didn't think so. He felt that it was a kind of humiliation.

Under the dazzling golden light, Xu Hou's name faded, and the golden light also converged until it disappeared.

The next moment, the golden light rose again. It went from dim to bright, and finally became dazzling, representing another shining star.

A new name appeared in the golden light, Zi Chen.

In front was Zi Chen's two words, followed by 2,057 contribution points.

He was only one point away from Xu Hou.

"Look, it's Zi Chen."

"Leader Zi Chen."

"Leader Zi Chen has entered the Weapon List of Despair."

The crowd burst into waves of cheers.

Entering the Weapon List of Despair represented the glory, the highest glory.

Some people deliberately raised their cheers after knowing that the name that was squeezed out was the lord just now.

"Haha, who said that Leader Zi Chen is dead? Isn't he alive and well? He even entered the top hundred of the Weapon List." Man Shi laughed wantonly. At the same time, he glanced at Xu Hou, whose face was somewhat ugly.

"A new generation replacing the old. Haha, a rising star." Mist Hidden Shadow laughed.

Beside Xu Hou, a Rank 4 martial artist snorted: "It's just a little contribution point. At most, we can say that this little guy is lucky."

"That's right, he's just a lucky little guy."

The others nodded, and Xu Hou's ugly face gradually eased.

On the list, the dazzling golden light gradually began to converge, but Zi Chen's name was still shining with golden light.

Just as he entered the list, the contribution points behind his name increased again.

It was originally 2,057, but it increased by a hundred points in an instant, becoming 2,157.

Then, the number continued to increase by 85, then 05.

The reason for this increase was because the process of changing the list was a little long. During this period, Zi Chen obtained new contribution points.

As the points continued to increase, Zi Chen's contribution points immediately passed the 3,555 mark, surpassing Xu Hou's by a few hundred.

The Rank 4 martial artist who just said that Zi Chen was lucky also obediently shut his mouth and looked at the list in disbelief.

In just a short while, it increased by more than 055 points.

One had to know that this represented the lives of more than 055 foreign races.

Thinking back, it was very difficult for their contribution points to increase. Even if there were many foreign races to kill now, it shouldn't have increased so quickly.

Could it be that he was slaughtering the foreign races?

The others were also shocked.

Xu Hou's eyes stared at the constantly increasing contribution points in silence.

The 44th place originally had 3,585 contribution points, and now, Zi Chen was only 85 points away from surpassing it.

"Surpass, surpass."

"Surpass."

"Surpass."

Shuntian and the others were just a step away from changing the list. Then, the hundreds of people who were lucky enough to survive also shouted in unison.

"Buzz."

The golden light on the Desperate Weapon Ranking trembled again, and then it burst out with golden light again.

Hundreds of people saw this scene and cheered loudly.

In the golden light, the glory of the older generation gradually faded, and Zi Chen, who represented the newcomers, rose to the 44th place.

As for the original one hundred, it was no longer Xu Hou, but Wharton.

He now had 2,666 contribution points, which was less than 955 points away from Xu Hou's previous contribution points.

"Wharton, you're also on the list."

Everyone cheered again. Compared to Zi Chen's absence, Wharton was standing here.

The gazes of the others all subconsciously turned towards Wharton. They all wanted to take a look at this Seventh Layer who was just a hair's breadth away from replacing Xu Hou's position.

Wharton should be happy to be in the top one hundred, but when he thought that Zi Chen had reached the 44th place in just a few years, Wharton couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Everyone cheered louder and louder. Xu Hou left with his people expressionlessly.

The dignity that everyone had just lost was recovered by Zi Chen at this moment.

In their eyes, Xu Hou left with his tail between his legs.
