In plain terms.
At the edge of the Planar Battlefield, warriors from various planes could be peaceful, but once they entered the Slaughter Asura Field, they had to fight to the death.
When Jun Changxiao first came to the Planar Battlefield, wasn’t he jointly hunted, yet they didn’t fight each other?
For each other’s 10 merit points, there was no need to fight to the death. The newly arriving plane’s warriors getting first blood rewarded 100 merit points, which was obviously more tempting.
Planes like Chihai Continent and Lingyun Continent had been in the battlefield for some years and knew each other well.
Unless there was some necessary reason to fight, when meeting at the battlefield’s perimeter, they would either exchange verbal jabs or spar for a few rounds before casually calling it off.
Although the Planar Battlefield was for slaughter, fighting upon meeting—aside from veterans bullying newcomers—was rarely seen.
When a plane’s stronghold expanded to a certain extent, not only was the mission complete, they could freely travel between their plane and the battlefield, coming here to kill for merit points and seek various opportunities.
Chihai Continent and Lingyun Continent were such cases.
They had been designated hundreds of years ago, entered the Planar Battlefield, expanded their territory, and successfully completed their mission, thereby gaining qualification to freely enter the battlefield.
This meant that designated planes, once they completed their mission, could retain the teleportation device for later generations to enter for slaughter, training, or seeking opportunities.
Only those initially entering planes with forced slaughter would struggle for territory.
Of course.
There was another situation that could trigger major slaughter—when some cave dwelling or opportunity was discovered.
For abundant resources and merit points, people would go mad.
For instance, decades ago, two planes of equal strength that would even greet each other when meeting engaged in slaughter at a battlefield corner over a certain Divine-grade supreme treasure.
That battle was earth-shattering, with blood flowing like rivers.
After the victor was decided, the supreme treasure was snatched by another plane opportunistically.
Actually, such major fights over supreme treasures and opportunities had occurred repeatedly throughout the Planar Battlefield’s long history.
Honestly, daily killing wasn’t realistic.
Unless individual warriors sought thrills or wanted to earn merit points, going solo or in small teams for crazy slaughter, the outcome was often being beaten to death by mobs, with grass growing several meters on their graves.
…
Dozens of Lingyun Continent warriors stopped outside the stronghold in the high sky. The white-haired old man at the front said indifferently, “You came quite diligently.”
“Likewise, likewise!”
The middle-aged man from Chihai Continent smiled without warmth.
The two planes had fought before, but their strength was evenly matched. After fighting several times with many casualties and no victor, gradually when they met there was only gunpowder smell without daring to truly fight.
During the time Jun Changxiao disappeared, these two plane warriors came most frequently.
Mainly because the distance was relatively close, and they hoped to kill Jun Changxiao for first blood and claim the 500-point bounty reward.
“In my opinion.”
The white-haired elder said indifferently, “That boy washed off the red glow long ago and is secretly hiding in some corner, not daring to return.”
“Hmph.”
The middle-aged man said coldly, “Having killed so many Chihai Continent warriors, even if that boy hides to the ends of the earth, he can’t escape death.”
“Sorry.”
The white-haired elder said indifferently, “This prey belongs to our Lingyun Continent.”
“Yours?” The middle-aged man laughed coldly.
From meeting to speaking, the aura of slaughter in the air grew increasingly intense, yet they had no thought of actually fighting.
“We’re leaving.”
The white-haired elder waved his hand.
Mainly passing by to check. Not finding the target, naturally they wouldn’t linger.
“We’re leaving too.” The middle-aged man said.
However, just as the two groups were about to leave, within the Xingyun Continent stronghold, a person appeared out of thin air with a “whoosh,” and the territory range also expanded by half a meter.
“This place…”
After stabilizing himself, Li Qingyang looked at the star-filled sky dome, looked at the blood-red earth below, and murmured, “This is the Planar Battlefield?”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
In an instant, powerful auras of slaughter came pressing down from two directions.
Only then did Li Qingyang realize that dozens of Emperor-level experts were hovering in mid-air, their gazes emanating unfriendliness.
Although the Sect Master had said this place was filled with experts.
But seeing so many flying Emperor-level experts at once still made him unavoidably shocked!
This lineup in Xingyun Continent.
Probably would only appear during certain major events!
Dozens of eyes from Chihai Continent and Lingyun Continent all stared fixedly at Li Qingyang, quickly determining this boy wasn’t the one who had killed with bloodshot eyes back then.
However.
Since he appeared at the stronghold, it meant he belonged to Xingyun Continent like that guy.
“Boy!”
The middle-aged man shouted coldly, “Hurry up and get out here!”
He couldn’t confirm whether Jun Changxiao was alive. If alive, killing this boy would earn first blood!
The white-haired elder also thought this way. He quickly led his companions back, hovering outside the stronghold, eyes permeating endless killing intent.
“A bit scary!”
Li Qingyang expressed panic.
“Whoosh!”
“Whoosh!”
Just then, Lu Qianqian, Xiao Zui Ji, and others appeared in the stronghold one after another. When they stabilized on the ground, the Xingyun Continent stronghold would invisibly expand.
It wasn’t hard to see the pattern—as long as warriors representing Xingyun Continent entered the battlefield, the stronghold would increase by half a meter.
This belonged to initial values, continuously triggered by numbers.
When reaching the limit, even bringing in all the plane’s people would only result in a fixed area. To continue expanding, they’d have to keep slaughtering.
Seeing several more Xingyun Continent warriors appear, Chihai Continent and Lingyun Continent warriors grew puzzled.
The next batch of designated planes should need five years to arrive. How could warriors enter the field early?
Or was this deliberately arranged by the Upper Realm?
Upper Realm: Damn it, I’m just blamed whenever warriors speculate!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh—”
One after another, Long Ziyang, Song Xuanzhou, and others appeared within the Xingyun Continent stronghold.
When they personally felt the intensely slaughtering aura of this world and sensed the Emperor-level experts hovering in mid-air, their gazes all became fervent.
This place.
Indeed, as the Sect Master said, more terrifying than the Life-Death Secret Realm!
So thrilling!
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Jiang Xie, the Ning brothers, and other elders also appeared.
Finally, after Xiao Longlong and Little Demon Fairy entered, the Xingyun Continent stronghold increased from initially over twenty square meters to over thirty square meters.
Chihai Continent and Lingyun Continent warriors’ eyes gradually brightened.
In their view, about twenty Xingyun Continent warriors were twenty prey that could be freely slaughtered.
“Whoosh!”
Just then, a familiar figure appeared within the Xingyun Continent stronghold.
Chihai Continent warriors saw this and their eyes immediately emanated killing intent.
That’s right, causing such a big reaction, the last to appear was naturally the incomparably handsome Jun Gou Sheng!
“Welcome participant’s return to the Planar Battlefield.” The female system notification sounded in his ear.
The teleportation gate was installed by Jun Changxiao, so only he could hear it.
Li Qingyang, Xiao Zui Ji, and others didn’t have this function, so they were currently in a half-confused state.
“Oh?”
Jun Changxiao stabilized himself, swept his eyes over the two groups, and smiled, “You knew this seat was returning today, so you specially came here to welcome me?”
“Welcome my ass!”
The middle-aged man ground his teeth and said, “Having killed so many Chihai Continent warriors, quickly wash your head clean and come out to die!”
Jun Changxiao understood.
Although he had left the battlefield for some time, these people hadn’t given up and probably came to check every day.
“Die?”
Jun Changxiao snapped his fingers and casually sat down.
At this moment, Xiao Zui Ji would definitely immediately hand over a chair, but being in an unfamiliar environment and still adapting, he overlooked the Sect Master’s hint.
“Thump!”
Jun Gou Sheng directly fell sitting on the ground.
Disciples: “…”
Plane warriors: “…”
In this extremely awkward situation, Jun Changxiao simply lay on his side directly, elbow propped on the ground, palm supporting his face, right leg crossed over his left leg, making his body form an ‘S’ shape, then combined the One Yang Finger and Lion’s Roar: “Come in if you dare!”
