Chapter 458: Azazel on Tour

"I refuse!"

At a ruined village, a youth with grey skin and pulsing purple veins glared at a sheep angel, who had appeared before him.

After Azazel visited Yuan Shaoqing for the first time, she went to see other experts, who were governing a territory, such as Xiahou Dun, Ling Cao, and Huang Hansheng.

Before her, Ling Tianlong was in command of a million fiends, namely Taotie. These dog-like creatures had been ravaging the land, slaughtering every human and cultivator they found.

Like what she had threatened Yuan Shaoqing, she informed him about the consequences of not joining this gathering event.

"You have the right to refuse, but you will have to pay the penalty fine with your soul."

"Ha! Are you threaten me!? Do you even know who I am?"

"A reincarnated soul, am I right? Immortal King Ling Tian."

"So you know who I was, and you dare to threaten me?"

The sheep angel sneered, "You're merely an immortal king, and you dare to flaunt your meager status in front of a Lost-Sheep Series Combat Marionette. You must be either an idiotic immortal or you are simply ignorant. The Universal Trend changes every year, and you fail to keep up with the advancing technologies. I'm not surprised that Kishin Douji toyed with you."

"Pfft, technologies? Those things are for weaklings like your master! I even cornered Kishin Douji despite being an immortal king. What are you? A pseudo providence deity with no constellation like you are nothing to me when I was in my prime! Do you think I'm being toyed by Kishin Douji? No, I gave him a run in his money! He almost died by my hands!"

"I have confirmed that you are indeed ignorant, arrogant, asinine, and stubborn. You even failed to realize that the clone of Kishin Douji you almost killed could only utilize less than 10% of his true power, yet you bragged that you squared against the Demon God, whose strength was only weaker than Primordial War Marionette, Series Fallen Angel. I have no word to express my ridicule."

"You…"

Ling Tianlong's heart and soul had been corrupted and tainted by the Taotie God that he had made a contract with. His temperament flared, and he was unable to restrain his anger.

Every slightest thing always enraged him. The calm and perfectionist protagonist was reduced to a berserking brute, who only used violence and murder to solve his issues.

Being offended, Ling Tianlong's arms transformed into bulky arms with large claws, the same as Taotie's arms and claws.

Azazel stood still, welcoming the claw attack.

CLANK

The claws hit her sheep head, but the sharp bones couldn't even cause the tiniest scratch on her skin.

Ling Tianlong didn't give up. He circulated his Death Qi into his claws and attacked her again.

"How weak and petty."

Azazel snorted and both arms of Ling Tianlong were detonated into purple blood mist.

Yet, Ling Tianlong bellowed and regrew his arms. He summoned a familiar spirit in the form of a large wolf.

The familiar revealed the cultivation base of the One-Star Constellation Realm, the first level of Immortal Realm!

It was stronger than a 9th-stage cultivator or Huang Hansheng!

…

Many immortals had a different path of cultivation. There were many branches that beasts, fiends, demons, and humans could take.

The popular ones were the Immortal King's path, which was categorized as the following realms;

Immortal Soldier

Immortal Knight

Immortal General

Immortal King

Immortal Emperor

Immortal Saint

This six-rank method was popular among human cultivators as it was the easiest path. They didn't need to condense many planets inside their soul dantian, and they could still progress if they were to become a vessel of a god.

Most world guardians of Heavenly Goose Planet were Immortal Soldiers, who were the bottom feeders, working for their dao gods. Meanwhile, Fang Yanxu was an Immortal General.

However, independent immortals without an affiliation, dignified immortals, and exceptional geniuses always picked another path.

The second most popular path required the immortal to condense at least one planet inside them. Most mortals who had a weak foundation avoided this path as it was more time-consuming.

However, the rewards were greater than the first path. It allowed the immortals to ascend further, and they could potentially become deities!

The stages of the second method and the names were as the followings;

One-Star Constellation Immortal

Two-Star Constellation Immortal

Three-Star Constellation Immortal

And so on.

This method had its perk - The immortals who had taken this path could continue to increase the number of their planets in their soul dantian until they reached the limitation of their Dao and Luck.

Every immortal called this method as "Constellation Method". It was popular among immortal clans as immortal parents would raise and prepare their children early to walk this path, which had a higher growth ceiling than the first method.

However, the second method was not perfect as their advancement would be instantly frozen if they were to become a vessel of a dao god – Their luck energy wouldn't be enough for them to condense more planets inside their dantian!

The highest record of the immortals who had walked this path was 299-Star Constellation, and the record owner was none other than Kishin Douji!

He had a monstrous foundation when he was an immortal!

There were other unique methods, which Devil, Uriel, OG-Buddha, Macho Joshua, and Azazel used, but that would be for another time.

…

= Back to Azazel =

The One-Star Constellation Wolf pounced at Azazel and bit her shoulder!

Unfortunately, its fangs couldn't penetrate through Azazel's white skin.

"I see why my boss is concerned about your abnormal strength. So, that Taotie God gave you a servant."

Azazel inhaled and spoke in a sheep language.

BAA

BOOM

The familiar spirit was instantly destroyed, shattered into dust.

PFFT

Ling Tianlong vomited a mouthful of blood, suffering from the backlash and the collateral damage, caused by the destruction of his familiar's soul.

Black smoke from Ling Tianlong rushed toward Azazel.

This was not Ling Tianlong's skill but a natural occurrence when a deity harmed a mortal. This black smoke would envelop the sinner and degrade their Providence or Luck.

However, the black smoke lingered around Azazel, unable to enter her body.

Azazel waved her hands like how she chased flies.

"Get lost. That was self-defense. This asshole attacked me first, and he is not a normal mortal. He's a reincarnator, who didn't drink Meng Po's soup, a sinner who is wanted by Samsara! Also, that stupid mutt also bit me first."

The black smoke instantly vanished as if it understood Azazel. No punishment befell to her as the immortal spirit and Ling Tianlong harmed her first.

Ling Tianlong glared at the "Second Generation War Droid" in anger. He wished that he still had his previous life's strength as he was confident that a robot like her wasn't his match.

Azazel ignored Ling Tianlong and proceeded with her business, "You are currently controlling 10% of Aves Continent. You are obliged to send 10 representatives to join the Selection Tournament, held at Siren City. You, yourself, must also join this event, or you will have to pay the penalty fine!"

"Bitch, once I regain my strength, I'll turn you into a real sheep, and you will be a toy for Taoties!"

"Whatever," the stoic sheep angel rolled her eyes. "Anyway, secondly, the required strength of the representatives must be between 6th-stage to 9th-stage. Familiar spirits are counted as a participant, and their strength cannot be higher or lower than the requirement! Therefore, a similar familiar spirit like before cannot join."

Without wasting her time, Azazel shoved an invitation letter and went to other places.

Ling Tianlong punched the ground in anger. Once again, he cursed Miaomiao and his backers.

He blamed Miaomiao for using his backers to trap him!

"Fine, Mao Miaomiao! I'll play your game! No matter what you planned for me, I'll crush you with my strength! No scheme can possibly overcome the absolute strength!"

…

= Jianye City =

Ling Cao, who had migrated Mount Hua Sect's disciples and surviving elders here, also received the invitation letter from Azazel.

In the Jianye Palace, Liu Biao, Huang Hansheng, and their subordinates were here as well.

The sheep angel gave him the same condition as Yuan Shaoqing.

"You are currently controlling 15% of Aves Continent. Therefore, you are obliged to send 15 representatives to join this event. Failure to do so, and you will have to pay for the penalty fine."

This wasn't the first time that Huang Hansheng and Ling Cao heard of this type of condition. They were experienced war veterans, so they had joined this tournament many times before.

Huang Hansheng and Ling Cao began counting the number of their experts. Their faces turned white as they didn't have enough.

"Fairy Deity, what is the penalty fine this time?" Asked Huang Hansheng.

"The soul of the territory leader."

Hearing her answer, everyone turned to Liu Biao, who was the leader-in-name. Everyone inwardly smiled while Liu Biao panicked.

"We'll join! We'll join the selection tournament!" Liu Biao screamed and knelt. He didn't want to die.

"I'll be back to check in a week. If you fail to gather enough participants, I shall collect the penalty fine."

"N-No. I'll make sure that I have enough participants!!"

Liu Biao glared at the experts in this room for a moment before he took out a treasure to send an intercontinental message to the Great Liu Clan at Holy Land, hoping to borrow their experts here.

Azazel ignored everyone and moved on. Since these people were cannon fodders to her, she didn't care if they might be plotting against each other.

…

= Red Sun City Palace =

Again, Azazel visited Liu Xuande and forcefully gave him the invitation letter. She repeated her lines.

"You are currently controlling 10% of Aves Continent. Therefore, you are obliged to send 10 representatives to join this event. Failure to do so, and you will have to pay for the penalty fine."

Unlike others, Liu Xuande calmly nodded and cupped his fist, "We shall fulfill the requirement. However, I'm not the actual lord of my territory, so I'm afraid that you might be collecting the penalty fine at the wrong person."

"Who is your master, then?"

Liu Xuande grinned. He pointed at the west, where the Xuan City was located.

"His name is Brocell. He self-proclaimed as the Demon Lord, and I'm using his troops at the moment. Technically, this city is under HIS protection."

Like a snake, Liu Xuande cunningly pushed the responsibility to Brocell, the mysterious dungeon master. He also knew about the selection tournament since he was a native of the Holy Land Continent.

He wouldn't fall for the trick of Azazel and Uriel. He knew a few loopholes to avoid the penalty fine and the responsibility.

"Alright. Since you admit that you're not the lord, I shall visit this Demon Lord next."

"Please do," Liu Xuande grinned.

"However!"

"Yes?"

"If THAT Demon Lord says that you are not his subordinate, you will be arrested for hindering the official work of a deity, and your soul will be taken to the Reincarnation River for eternal imprisonment!"

"… Don't worry. I'm an honest guy. I don't lie."

"Let's hope you didn't."

Azazel left Liu Xuande and his brothers alone. She flew away from the Red Sun City Palace.

After Azazel had left, Liu Xuande sweated bullets. His face lost all color.

Liu Xuande turned to his brothers.

"We're fucked. Mao Miaomiao's backers are moving. We have to leave this continent, NOW!!"

"Where to?" Guan Yunchang frowned.

"BACK HOME! We're going back to Holy Land Continent!"

"What about our Continental Domination Plan?"

"Screw it! We can't contest with Mao Miaomiao. We're leaving!"

Zhang Yide stared blankly at his brothers. He scratched his head, "How do we cross the Blood Sea? Are we going to fly directly there? Through THAT place again?"

"We have no choice. Prepare your pills, weapons, and gears. We will have to go through those octopuses again!"

"…"
