Shocking World War Emperor
Chapter 218 Dark Realm

Chapter 218: Chapter 218 Dark Realm

Su Changge said somberly, "Originally, in our plan, our people would only take action when half of you were either dead or captured. However, because of Bai 397, only four of you perished. You are lucky, but I hope you don’t forget who brought you this fortune!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Lin and the others immediately turned towards Ling Chen, slightly bowed and said, "Thank you, Young Master 397!"

"There’s no need for formalities, we’re all people of the Dark Night,"

Ling Chen waved his hand and said with a light smile.

Helping them was also helping himself.

In order to obtain the identity of the Dark Night Son, he must kill some Ghost Guards.

Since killing was inevitable, why not do his best, and help other candidates for the Dark Night Son along the way?

After all, to contend against King You in the future, relying solely on his own power was too weak.

He needed the support of others!

"Alright, the rest of you, take out the tokens of the Ghost Guards you’ve killed! This competition for the positions of Dark Night Son has two slots!"

Su Changge said with a smile.

"Right!"

Everyone felt a surge of elation.

They all began taking out the tokens of the Ghost Guards.

Those who killed Ghost Guards were few.

The majority were just fortunate to escape with their lives.

Even if they teamed up to attack, their role was largely just support; only about three people managed to make a kill.

"Bai 323, five tokens!"

"Bai 362, two tokens!"

"Bai 395, one token!"

After Su Changge verified the count, she announced the results.

"So, the second slot for Dark Night Son goes to Bai 323!"

Su Changge said with a smile.

Bai 323 was none other than the cultivator Xu Lin, who was in the mid-phase of the second level of the Primordial Pill Realm.

Ling Chen had witnessed this man in action; although he was in the mid-phase of the second level of the Primordial Pill Realm, his spiritual power was comparable to that of the early-phase of the fourth level.

He had even slain a Ghost Guard who was at the third level of the Primordial Pill Realm with his own strength!

Clearly, this person also possessed a Super Spiritual Body!

As for what kind of Spiritual Body, Ling Chen could not discern.

The spiritual power that Xu Lin used was black and did not fall into the common categories of the five elemental attributes, making it unrecognizable.

"Thank you, my lord!"

Xu Lin was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to Su Changge.

Su Changge nodded and then turned to the other twenty-four somewhat disheartened candidates, smiled and said, "You don’t need to be disheartened. Although you failed to compete for the Dark Night Son, given the danger of this assessment and your contributions to the Dark Night, you will be compensated with some cultivation resources."

"Thank you, my lord!"

Everyone was delighted and quickly bowed.

Su Changge nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile, "Alright, this competition for the Dark Night Son is now concluded. The two new Dark Night Sons, please stay; everyone else may follow him to receive compensation."

"Yes."

The crowd happily followed a Golden Killer to receive their compensation.

"397, 323, the two of you come here."

As she spoke, Su Changge led the way to the Star Observation Tower.

Ling Chen and the other followed her.

The three of them ascended the stairs, eventually reaching the top of the tower.

"Next, you two need to undergo the knighting ceremony to become true Dark Night Sons. The ceremony will be personally conducted by our Star Shura."

Su Changge said with a smile.

"Star Shura?"

Ling Chen and Xu Lin exchanged glances, both puzzled.

"Yes,"

Su Changge nodded and explained, "Shura is a rank within our Dark Night, similar to the Deputy Palace Master of the Eight Great Academies. Star Shura is responsible for recruiting talents for our Dark Night. Besides the Dark Night Lord, Dark Night Sons, and Shura, we also have Protectors, Rashamon, and other ranks. You will find out more once you enter the Dark Night."

"Mm."

Ling Chen and the other nodded immediately.

Additionally, the award ceremony will be held within the Dark Realm. You wonder why the lair of our Dark Night has never been uncovered? It’s because the true core of our Dark Night lives within the Dark Realm.

Su Changge showed a proud smile on his face.

"I know what you want to ask, without further ado, I’ll take you into the Dark Realm now!"

Seeing Xu Lin about to speak, Su Changge immediately cut him off.

"Close your eyes and focus!"

Su Changge’s cold shout made Ling Chen and his companion’s hearts tremble.

They immediately did as told.

"Let’s go!"

A jade pendant appeared in Su Changge’s hand.

Injecting Spiritual Power into it, the jade pendant immediately burst into dazzling light.

The light enveloped all three of them.

And by the time the light vanished, no trace of them could be found at the top of the observatory tower.

...

At this time, Ling Chen and the others found themselves in a bizarre environment, surrounded by flowing lights and colors, with everything outside wildly retreating, unable to discern where they were exactly.

"Transmission Array!"

Su Changge gave a slight smile.

"Transmission Array?"

Xu Lin looked baffled, as he had never heard of this term before.

"Is it really a Transmission Array?"

A surprised look flashed across Ling Chen’s eyes.

There were descriptions of Transmission Arrays in his inherited memories.

He had not expected that within the Great Xia Dynasty, they would actually encounter a Transmission Array.

Moreover, it was a movable Transmission Array, not a fixed one!

"Of course!"

Su Changge wore a proud look and said, "In the entire Great Chu Dynasty, only we, the Dark Night, possess Transmission Arrays!"

As he spoke, the surrounding scenery changed again.

The flowing lights and colors all receded, and the vision blurred for a moment before a vast city appeared before their eyes.

"We’ve arrived."

Su Changge smiled slightly and took the lead towards the city.

"What is this place?"

Ling Chen asked.

He looked around and found that the surroundings were not much different from outside Zhenwu Prefecture City.

Xu Lin also gazed intently at Su Changge.

"This is the Dark Realm!"

Su Changge smiled and said, "Simply put, this is an independent space."

"Independent space?"

Ling Chen’s eyes narrowed.

He understood what an independent space meant.

For instance, a person’s Dantian and Sea of Consciousness are independent spaces.

However, this place was different because human cultivators could live here.

It’s known that even those in the Palace Mansion Realm, though they can open a palace within themselves, can only store objects, not living creatures!

The only known independent space where humans could live was within the small world inside the body of World Realm Cultivators!

World Realm, that was a level far beyond the Palace Mansion Realm!

It was hard to imagine that a place like the Great Xia Dynasty could have once birthed such powerful World Realm cultivators?

"Yes, an independent space. It’s not easy to explain, you only need to know that this place is isolated from the outside. Without this jade pendant in my hand, outsiders absolutely cannot enter!"

Su Changge chuckled, "This is also why the Ghost Guards are helpless against our Dark Night!"

Ling Chen asked, "Won’t they just seize your jade pendants?"

"Of course they would. But even if the Ghost Guards took it, it would be useless. This jade token can only be activated by my Spiritual Power. Also, I can only bring in two cultivators with a lower cultivation level than me at a time. Even if someone were to hold me hostage and make me activate the jade token, as long as their cultivation level exceeds mine, they too would be repelled."

Su Changge explained.
