Chapter 545: Dead Thoroughly!

Saint King Xiyue was at the Early Stage Saint King Realm, and her strength was considered top-tier among those at the Early Stage Saint King Realm, but killing a Lower-Middle Tier God was almost impossible.

Only by joining forces with other Early Stage Saint Kings would there be any hope.

Killing a Lower-Middle Tier God generally rewarded one billion battle merit, and if divided among several people, there would not be much left for each person.

She did not know how many years of effort it would take to accumulate 2.5 billion battle merit, yet now, by following Li Xuanfeng on this trip, she had obtained it easily without receiving even a single injury. How could she not be happy? How could she not be excited?

For Cultivators on the Void Battlefield, battle merit was the most precious thing, because battle merit could be exchanged for any resources they needed.

Whether Saint King Xiyue could Breakthrough to the Mid-Stage Saint King Realm depended crucially on the amount of battle merit.

"If I can gather a bit more, I can exchange for some resources to attempt a Breakthrough to the Middle Stage, and my life-bound weapon will also have a chance to undergo a transformation!"

Saint King Xiyue thought happily.

Saint King Beiming was in a similar mood at this moment, also planning how to use this battle merit.

Only Saint King Jinyan and Saint King Xuanshuang felt a bit uneasy. If it were any other Cultivator who did not know Li Xuanfeng's strength, they would have chosen Extreme Sun when faced with their situation.

This was not only out of consideration for their own safety, but also for the chance to share in more "teammate rewards." Yet, who could have expected that there would be a monster like Li Xuanfeng in this world, who could kill two Upper Gods of the Twin Race with only a Mid-Stage Saint King cultivation!

Even after witnessing all of this with their own eyes, it still felt unreal.

Having missed this opportunity, perhaps they would never have another in this lifetime. The two's regret could only turn into a soft sigh in their hearts.

"Since there are no objections, then it is settled."

Li Xuanfeng did not pay attention to what they were thinking. With a wave of his hand, the phantom characters in the air dissipated.

Several tokens trembled slightly, and the battle merit numbers inside them all increased.

Li Xuanfeng held his token, and the text "battle merit: 1.25 trillion" lit up on the surface of the token before fading away.

The boundary gate tokens were all crafted by the hands of Supreme Experts and were engraved with numerous Formations and Restrictions. Once the battle merit was determined, it could not be forcibly modified.

Even if the Supreme Experts themselves wanted to modify it, they would have to utilize the Thirty-Six Heavens Starry Universe Grand Array, otherwise the token would collapse.

"battle merit is a reward mechanism created by the Supreme Experts; it cannot be obtained as a return through the System."

Li Xuanfeng thought to himself.

The prerequisite for the System's return was cultivation or any resources related to cultivation.

battle merit could not directly increase cultivation, nor was it considered a cultivation resource. It was just a string of virtual numbers that needed to be exchanged for resources at designated places to fulfill its purpose.

Therefore, Li Xuanfeng could not farm battle merit through the System. Otherwise, completing missions together with Lian Yuezhou's secondary body or Senior Sister Ye Qingqing would certainly have allowed his battle merit to soar rapidly.

Exchanging battle merit for resources and then farming the return would be the same, just with an extra step in between.

"1.25 trillion battle merit can be exchanged for a Medium Grade Great Sage Weapon, but it's useless to me. I'll gather more before exchanging for things."

Putting away the boundary gate token, Li Xuanfeng pondered secretly.

The token's calculation of battle merit was based on evidence, not calculated randomly.

One of the simplest calculation methods was determining how much battle merit should be awarded for killing a foreign race member; the battle merit reward given for killing foreign race members of different Realms was certainly different.

In the Endless Void, the weakest foreign race members that had appeared were War Kings.

War King was a Realm for the foreign race, equivalent to the King Realm in the Canglan Realm, and similarly had divisions of Early Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, and Peak.

The Realms after War King were War Emperor, War Venerable, and Quasi-God, corresponding to the Emperor Realm, Venerable, and Half-Saint of the Canglan Realm.

For Cultivators in the Canglan Realm, if they relied on their own strength to kill an Early Stage War King, they would receive a reward of ten battle merit points; killing a Middle Stage War King was thirty, a Late Stage War King was fifty, and a Peak War King was seventy.

Killing an Early Stage War Emperor was one thousand, Middle Stage was three thousand, Late Stage was five thousand, and Peak was seven thousand.

Killing an Early Stage War Venerable was one hundred thousand, Middle Stage was three hundred thousand, Late Stage was five hundred thousand, and Peak was seven hundred thousand.

Killing a Quasi-God was one million.

Killing a Lower-Lower Tier God was ten million.

Upon reaching a Lower-Middle Tier God, it would soar to one billion; upon reaching an Initial High-Tier God, it would soar to one hundred billion; and upon reaching a Quasi-God King, it was even measured in trillions.

From the battle merit rewards, one could intuitively see the strength gap between each Realm, as well as the difficulty of killing foreign race members of that Realm.

This method of battle merit reward assumed individual kills; if there were teammates helping, the battle merit would be distributed according to each person's degree of contribution.

In addition to killing foreign race members, guarding the Void Battlefield would also result in battle merit rewards. Depending on the difficulty of guarding and the duration, battle merit rewards were given; that was another calculation method.

If important intelligence was collected, such as discovering a brand-new foreign race, discovering a new Void Battlefield, or discovering methods to deal with the foreign race's Innate Divine Ability, battle merit rewards would be granted.

In short, the Supreme Experts had long planned out the battle merit calculation methods for different situations and had engraved micro-Formations and Restrictions into every token, allowing it to calculate and tally automatically, ensuring a certain degree of fairness. If Cultivators had objections or were dissatisfied, they could return to the Boundary Pass and ask the Domain Master to make a final decision.

"The fastest way to obtain battle merit is by killing foreign race members and conquering Void Battlefields. I will proceed with this plan next, and coincidentally rendezvous with Master's other secondary bodies."

Li Xuanfeng made up his mind.

Staying here to guard the Two Realms Battlefield could also earn battle merit. If foreign race members continued to arrive, killing them would also bring in a sum of battle merit, but this was too slow for Li Xuanfeng.

"The task of guarding the battlefield will be left to you. Leaving two Great Sages and four Early Stage Saint Kings is enough to exert most of the power of the Two Realms Battlefield."

"I am preparing to leave. If you wish to continue completing other missions, you can send the message back to the Boundary Pass, and Master will arrange for Cultivators willing to guard to come."

Li Xuanfeng's gaze swept over Great Saint Zhuguang and the others.

With his strength, staying here to guard was a complete waste. With this time, he might as well try to kill more foreign race members.

After all, the number of foreign race members sent into the Endless Void this time was extremely vast. The more often a combat power at the level of a Top Great Sage like Li Xuanfeng struck, the less pressure there would be on those weaker Cultivators.

"Rest assured, Peerless Saint King. As long as High-Tier Upper Gods and Mid-Tier High Gods of the Twin Race do not come, we will have no problem just holding the Two Realms Battlefield!"

Extreme Sun said seriously.

The Two Realms Battlefield belonged to an "Earth-Grade" battlefield. Its importance to the foreign race was not yet that high, so they likely would not send overly powerful foreign race members to attack. Therefore, these few people were enough just to guard it.

"We will naturally do our utmost to hold the battlefield!"

Great Saint Zhuguang also nodded solemnly from the side.

After witnessing Li Xuanfeng's strength, their attitudes had changed significantly. Before, it was only out of consideration for his identity as the Domain Master's Disciple, but now, they were conquered by Li Xuanfeng's own strength.

Foreign race members would not talk nicely to people, nor would they care what background or backing you had. Once they met, it was a fight to the death. Therefore, on the Void Battlefield, one's own strength was the most important thing.

If one wanted others to acknowledge or even fear them, they needed to be strong enough themselves; background had to take a backseat.

The strength Li Xuanfeng displayed was enough to make them fear him.

Seeing the two make such guarantees, Li Xuanfeng nodded and prepared to turn and leave.

"Peerless Saint King, regarding the clash just now… I apologize!"

Great Saint Zhuguang looked at his back and said apologetically.

He did not know Li Xuanfeng's strength, so when Li Xuanfeng had only watched from the sidelines earlier without looking at the situation, his speech had carried clear dissatisfaction and anger.

Li Xuanfeng waved his hand casually.

Great Saint Zhuguang apologized only because he was afraid Li Xuanfeng would hold a grudge against him because of this; he was not that petty.

"Peerless Saint King, about that… Heavenly God Huoyan…"

Great Saint Zhuguang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, so he spoke again, asking the question that everyone in their hearts had guessed but dared not confirm.

"Dead thoroughly."

Li Xuanfeng left behind this sentence, turned into a rainbow light, and with a swoosh, disappeared into the Void, heading far away.
