Paradise of Demonic Gods

Chapter 987: Countless Experts

Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

Cyan stone slabs filled the entire square. Maria exerted a little force to stomp down a few times, only to realize that they were extremely sturdy. To think that they did not even budge from her stomps and were even sending out a faint backlash...

Maria frowned as she looked at the weird cyan stone slabs under her feet and thought, ‘What sturdy stone slabs. It seems that this square has also been specially modified to accommodate these experts.’

She raised her head and saw that there were densely-packed crowds everywhere in the square. This was a rare sight on usual days. Second transition Knights who could hold firm in an area kept gushing out like chives.

Even Demigods who could rule over an area could be seen everywhere. They were like cabbages that could be found at the roadside.

People who had not even reached the second transition could not even enter and could only stand outside the square. Maria glanced around and saw that many buildings around the square had been taken up by countless Knights. Densely-packed crowds squeezed there as they watched the situation on the square.

Despite the fact that there were so many experts, no one was causing any trouble.

These experts gathered together in their own groups. Most often, they would be a group of experts from the same area or faction. There were also experts who had contradictions and feuds who were quarreling or cursing each other, but no one got into any fights.

Even the cultivators who could start fighting over a casual bump or glare were all very well-behaved, squeezing in the square like sardines in a can.

This was all because of the reputation of the number one expert in the south—Sword Overlord Fang Xingjian.

Maria could see clearly that there were many small platforms set up in the square, and many men and women wearing golden-hemmed long robes who were seated there. Their sharp gazes would occasionally sweep out toward the noisiest spot in the square.

Wherever their gaze swept by, silence would fill up the place like the winter cicadas.

As if sensing Maria’s curious gaze, a man with platinum-colored hair next to her said in a soft voice, “Those are people from the East Military Execution Order. These people are extremely vicious and brutal. They have Tyrant and the Sword Overlord backing them up, and ordinary Demigods have to run after seeing them. Even Divine level experts have to show them some respect.”

Maria got a shock from hearing that. She had not expected that these people would be the infamous East Military Execution Order who had annihilated countless factions and clans.

She looked toward the platinum-haired next to her and said, “Hello, you are?”

“I’m Chris from the northern Holy Scriptures Hall,” the man said with a smile. Revealing a face that could mesmerize countless young ladies, he looked at Maria and remarked, “Miss looks like you have a polished cultivation and you’re very spirited. You must also be from some great faction as well?”

Maria gave it some thought before saying, “I come from the Myriad Stars Mountain.”

“Oh, you’re learning under the Astral Ancestor.” Holy Scriptures Hall’s Chris revealed an expression to say he understood, then he nodded before leaving.

Maria knew that the Holy Scriptures Hall was a faction that was under the the Church of Universal Truth’s influence. They were naturally not considered to be on the same frequency with the Empire’s factions.

She then followed the crowd and headed to the center of the square. Although most of the experts in the square and even some Demigods and Divine level experts could only stand amongst the crowd, there was still a series of floating stone platforms circling around the center of the square and floating in the sky. These stone platforms had been prepared for some major influences.

Amongst the five Divine level experts under Fang Xingjian, the Astral Ancestor’s Myriad Stars Palace was considered one of them. As a disciple of the Myriad Stars Palace, she could naturally attempt to head up there as well.

As she leaped gently onto the platform, a young man and a young woman quickly came up to her. One of them asked, “Younger Martial Sister? Where have you been during this period of time? Why haven’t you been contacting us?”

Maria said a little awkwardly, “I went for an adventure in some relics with someone else and ended up getting lost inside. However, I managed to have a fortunate encounter from it.”

Saying that, she released some of the ether particles’ powers in her body.

“Oh? To think that you’ve already completed your second transition...?”

“It’s a blessing in disguise for you then. But your father was very anxious.”

Just as the few of them were chattering non-stop, the sky suddenly darkened. Then streams of starlight kept on flashing incessantly in the dark sky.

Stars did not exist in Miracle World. However, right now, someone had performed some kind of mysterious technique to bring forth the dark sky and move the stars, displaying the universe’s chaos and fireworks onto the dark sky.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the starry night, the Myriad Stars Palace’s disciples and the people under the platforms started gasping.

“Grandmaster has arrived!”

“The Myriad Stars Palace’s Astral Ancestor has come.”

“Is this how the starry sky is like? This is the first time I’m seeing it.”

Accompanied by the gasps from countless people, a stream of extremely vast starlight descended from the sky. The starlight smashed onto the platform like a light pillar, and a majestic power kept pressing down. It was as if the entire sky had come pressing down explosively, shaking many people and causing them to almost drop to their knees.

With the Astral Ancestor’s descent, three streams of slightly weaker starlight also landed behind the light pillar. They were the Astral Ancestor’s three disciples—the Lonestar Knight, Stardust Fairy, and the Starbeast Hunter. The three of them had suddenly attained a breakthrough to tier one of the Divine level.

Seeing the Astral Ancestor’s appearance, all of the disciples from the Myriad Stars Palace instantly gushed forth and dropped to their knees, shouting, “Welcoming the Grandmaster.”

The Astral Ancestor nodded and did not say anything as he took his seat at the position that was at the very front of the platform. His three disciples quickly followed behind him. Maria stood at the very last row, looking excitedly at the scene before her.

The Astral Ancestor’s arrival was like a signal. With his descent, batches of Divine level experts took turns to arrive at the scene. Even the empty stone platforms that had been originally left for various major influences started to be filled up by experts in succession.

The square became increasingly congested, and there were more and more experts who appeared on the floating stone platforms.

“That person is from the northern barbarian’s Fire Salutation Sect!”

“Many countries from overseas have also come.”

“The Holy Scriptures Hall’s Hall Master has arrived as well. They are a faction that a Pope created several thousand years ago after he was abdicated from his position.”

Just then, a series of flashing light passed by, and several tens of people dressed in black robes suddenly appeared on a stone platform. They were entirely covered by their long black robes. There was only an image of a tulip on their backs.

Their appearance seemed to immediately caused countless people to be astonished. Many elderly pointed to those black robed people in disbelief and shouted, “People from the Tulip Dynasty?”

“To think that this dynasty still has surviving descendants...?”

“To think that they’ve been drawn out as well...?”

Hearing that, Maria was taken by surprise too. The Tulip Dynasty was a super dynasty that had almost unified the entire land. It was a mysterious dynasty that existed in the same era as Saint Adam. To think that they still had descendants who could come to this meeting...?

Just as countless people were astonished over the Tulip Dynasty’s descendants, swooshing water sounds filled up the world at the next moment. A young man let out a shout and pointed toward the sky in the westward direction, exclaiming in disbelief, “Tsu... Tsunami is coming!”

Swooshing water sounds kept on ringing out from the ends of the sky in the west. A wave that was several hundred meters tall gushed into the sky against conventional thinking. It pressed down toward the Imperial Capital with a disposition like it was going to engulf the entire land.
