With the deaths of Bi Qing and the other three, a recording was transmitted to the Shadow Return Pavilion of the Shadow Assassination Hall. The Deacon on duty in the pavilion was already accustod to the deaths of Shadow Assassination Hall disciples. Every day, at least a hundred Shadow Assassination Hall disciples died while on missions. Their missions ranged from assassinating Innate Stage Immortal Geniuses from various Immortal Sects to even assassinating their House Elders and True Monarchs. Of course, the death-replay images from assassinating House Elders and True Monarchs of various Immortal Sects were classified as top secret. These were generally investigated and sealed personally by the high-level mbers of the Shadow Assassination Hall, and such matters did not involve deacons like him.
Inside the Shadow Return Pavilion, a gray-skinned old man, a Deacon, flipped through the records and found the mission Bi Qing and his team had accepted. "Assassinate the thirteenth on the Human Rankings... Human King Physique Xu Xing..." he read. "Defeated and perished." He shook his head, struck out the nas of Bi Qing and the others, and then added a note after Xu Xing’s na: "Luck, killed four of the sa realm, dangerous."
The Human King Physique was known to be blessed with Great Fortune, so his assessnt of Xu Xing leaned heavily on "Luck." The note "killed four of the sa realm, dangerous" served as a warning to any Shadow Assassination Hall disciples who might take on this mission in the future. It signified that it was extrely dangerous for an Immortal Foundation Realm cultivator to accept this task.
After writing the comnt, the gray-skinned old man opened the replay image and watched it as a matter of routine. He had served as a Deacon in the Shadow Assassination Hall for hundreds of years and was already familiar with evaluating various assassination targets. He could provide an extrely accurate assessnt without needing to repeatedly watch the replay images. Xu Xing and Song Knife were not the only examples of the Human King Physique; other Immortal Sects had them too. Thus, watching the replay image was rely a formality. He had written the mission outco and his assessnt of the assassination target first because he couldn’t be bothered to open the scroll again later.
In the replay image, Xu Xing first used his Outer Dao Golden Body to tear apart three puppets, then used the sa thod to brutally kill Bi Qing and the other three. Finally, there was a staged scene between Xu Xing and the King of Might.
This Golden Body looks a bit like the Great Sun Dharma Body of the Flying Feather Immortal Palace? the old man mused. However, the Great Sun Dharma Body can only be manifested by cultivators at the Returning Core Realm... His brow furrowed; he was unsure what technique Xu Xing had used. He’s so strong that he directly destroyed three first-grade, top-quality Puppets! And this Golden Body... it’s impervious to Magical Artifacts and Talismans. Not a single trace of damage...
He watched Xu Xing’s battle recording again, his brows furrowing deeper.
The gray-skinned old man upgraded Xu Xing’s evaluation: "Luck, power; suspected Returning Core Realm strength."
Imdiately afterward, he took the scroll to the Human Rankings Building of the Shadow Assassination Hall and submitted Xu Xing’s battle recording along with his evaluation.
「Half a day later.」
The Human Rankings of the Shadow Assassination Hall were updated. This move caused quite a stir among the lower-level disciples of Yama Palace. Although the full na of the Shadow Assassination Hall’s Heaven, Earth, and Human Lists was the "Must Kill Heaven, Earth, and Human Lists," as the Shadow Assassination Hall’s fa grew in East Huangzhou, these three lists also ca to be regarded as the top three rankings of powerful individuals in the region.
Among them, the Human Rankings included Immortal Foundation Realm cultivators.
The Earth List included Returning Core Realm cultivators.
The Heaven List included Dao Pill Realm cultivators.
I wonder which Immortal Sect’s Pride of Heaven has made it onto the list this ti?
The Human Rankings are updated every six months. It’s not ti for a change yet, so this sudden update must an soone broke into the top ten! The top ten of the Human Rankings are all occupied by the Chief disciples or equivalents from the major Immortal Sects...
We need to get the details of this news as soon as possible and sell it throughout East Huangzhou!
I bet it’s ng Bi, the son of the Sect Master of the Yin Wind Gate.
He recently achieved incredible Battle Achievents in the North Wilderness, killing thirty-seven subterranean fire demons.
...
Outside the Human Rankings Building, a crowd of Yama Palace disciples discussed this animatedly. While the ranking of many powerful individuals and Prides of Heaven was often linked to the deaths of Shadow Assassination Hall disciples, the disciples from the other halls of Yama Palace never held those from the Shadow Assassination Hall in high regard. They rely saw them as servants of the illustrious Yama Palace. As self-proclaid masters, they naturally felt no sha over the deaths of these "servants."
Amidst the clamor, a new, enormous scroll was unfurled on the Human Rankings Building. This ranking list cascaded from the top of the nine-story structure all the way down to the first floor, densely packed with over three hundred nas. The nas and comnts in the top ten were one font size larger than those behind them and were written in gold dust.
"First, Duan Jun of Purple Lightning Peak, Three Absolutes Sect. Evaluation: Purple Lightning Immortal Body, possesses Innate control over lightning. Once killed three early-stage Returning Core Realm cultivators and one mid-stage Returning Core Realm cultivator..."
"Second, Gou Renshu of the Holy Word School, Daoist Sect. Evaluation: An ordinary physique but born with a wise heart. No Battle Achievents."
"Third, Li Xiaoyun, Young Manor Lord of Dragon Mountain Villa. Evaluation: Rears two great Flood Dragons; strength unknown."
...
"Sixth, Ruan Baii of the Ruan Family’s Nine Mountain Great Halls, Flying Feather Immortal Palace. Evaluation: Taibai Immortal Body. Slew three True Lineage disciples of the Mingquan Sect and killed one Returning Core Realm Protector..."
"Seventh, Xu Xing, True Lineage disciple of the Giant Sword Lineage, Flying Feather Immortal Palace. Evaluation: Emperor Tiande of Fengxi Country. Another Human King Physique, following Song Knife (ranked 27th on the Heaven List). At the Immortal Foundation Realm, he has already cultivated a Golden Body resembling the suspected Great Sun Dharma Body. Savagely killed four Immortal Foundation Realm disciples of the Shadow Assassination Hall and tore apart three Level One Puppets."
"Eighth, Nan Ling of the Hidden Lineage, Mingquan Sect. Evaluation: ..."
...
The Yama Palace disciples ticulously read through the top ten nas on the Human Rankings. After they finished reading, they compared it with the previous Human Rankings and finally found the person who had made it into the top ten.
That person was Xu Xing, previously ranked Thirteenth on the Human Rankings.
This ti, he had leaped from the thirteenth position to seventh.
