Players complained that this NPC killed people without blinking an eye

The Elf King's long silver hair fell on his shoulders, trembling slightly with nervousness, and the pearl embellishments swayed gently beside him.

His green pupils reflected the black and red afterimages lingering around Gu Yeming, and his originally proud spine bent into a humble arc:

"If you do not mind, I am willing to offer the strength of my clan as a gift. I only ask for your forgiveness."

Hearing the Elf King's words, all the high-ranking elves present were so shocked that they stood there in a daze.

What did they see?

They actually saw the Elf King being so servile to a human!

However, when they thought that the culprit of the sword energy just now was most likely the human in front of them, they immediately understood the Elf King's actions.

It seems... even the king of my tribe... can't withstand that sword energy.

Faced with the respect from the Elf King, Gu Yeming remained calm. He glanced at the other party and was too lazy to say anything. He opened his palm and a dark round hole suddenly appeared!

【Swallow】

The Elf King's pupils suddenly constricted, he quickly stood up, and just as he was about to resist, he was completely swallowed by the dark round hole in the next second!

call--!

"king!"

"Human! How dare you do this—"

The senior executives all exclaimed in surprise. Seeing the Elf King being completely swallowed by the pitch-black round hole, they had no time to think. Just when they were about to attack Gu Yeming, they were also swallowed by the pitch-black round hole in the next second!

The dark round hole continued to expand, and in a short time it completely covered the elven plane!

Gu Yeming's figure instantly appeared in the sky. He clenched his palms, and the dark round hole shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!

[You have swallowed the plane: the elf plane]

[Reality +0.358%]

After taking a quick glance at the system prompt box, Gu Yeming looked away.

Anyway, he was going to devour all the planes, so he didn't care what the creatures in these planes thought. He would just devour them all. As for what to do next, he would let the people like Auglidu in his body take care of it.

Auglidu is one of the highest administrators in the domain, a top-tier universe-class powerhouse, and his ability is particularly tricky in the time category.

If he were to fight with Auglidu, he would not be sure of winning, but if he wanted to leave, there was no way the other party would force him to stay.

From this point, it can be proved that Auglidu is still particularly outstanding in terms of combat power. After all, as one of the highest managers of the realm, he himself is superior to 99% of the creatures or strong people in the plane.

With the opponent's combat power and means, it would be very easy to make these swallowed plane creatures obedient.

Moreover, as one of the highest administrators in the domain who has lived for over 100,000 years, Auglidu is quite good in both combat and management. Gu Yeming is quite relieved about this.

Since there are dedicated people to take care of the affairs within the body, Gu Yeming can naturally let go and do it without any worries.

Then...it's time to go to the Summit Tower.

The thought flashed through his mind, and Gu Yeming no longer hesitated. He summoned the peak token and activated the teleportation function.

[You have used the Peak Token: Teleport]

【Transmitting.....】

Swish-!

Gu Yeming disappeared on the spot.

......

The Peak Tower, the Guardian's Hall.

At this time, many defenders were gathered here, some chatting in groups, some making appointments to compete, and some doing business.

Unlike the Tower of Trial, the Tower of the Strong, and the Tower of Blood Refining, the guardians of the Peak Tower rarely change, so the interactions between them are very close, and the lower, middle, and upper level guardians all have their own circles.

Swish!

Gu Yeming's figure appeared in the Guardian Hall. No one paid attention to it at first. It was normal for a Guardian to appear in the hall.

However, when someone discovered that the person was Gu Yeming, it immediately caused an uproar.

"That person is...Gu Yeming?"

"Who is he? Why do you keep talking about Gu Yeming lately?"

"You've been hiding in the Guardian Space for too long, and you don't know what's happening outside."

"One of the highest administrators of the domain—Locking Domain Venerable—knows this, right?"

"know."

"The top-tier universe-class powerhouse was killed by that Gu Yeming not long ago."

"what?"

"Shocked, right? I'm shocked too. I never expected this... Gu Yeming was only at the top-level Demarcation Level not long ago, but he suddenly became a Universal-level powerhouse. What's even more incredible is that he was even able to kill the top-level Universal-level Lord Locking Domain!"

"What should he do then? If he kills one of the highest administrators of the realm, won't the entire realm hunt him down?"

"Of course, he is now the public enemy of the realm."

"Not long ago... he even declared war on the entire dimension and even all other dimensions. This is completely contrary to what he advocated."

"What!? This... is so crazy?"

"Yeah, I don't know what he wants to do by coming to the Peak Tower this time. Is he trying to challenge the powerful ones in the upper levels?"

The guards present were talking about it. At this moment, no matter they were lower-level guards, middle-level guards or upper-level guards, they all looked at Gu Yeming with fear on their faces.

Especially those upper-level guardians. Although Gu Yeming’s current guardian level is only the 51st level, they dare not underestimate him at all.

The news that the Lord of Locking Domain was forcibly killed by the other party not long ago is still echoing in their ears. If they pick anyone at random to face Gu Yeming, the only outcome will be that they will be killed directly.

With the appearance of Gu Yeming, the atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing point. The originally noisy hall suddenly became quiet. Everyone was looking at Gu Yeming, not daring to breathe.

Gu Yeming didn't pay any attention to them. He picked up the peak token and said calmly:

"Come out, I want to challenge the top guardian."

WTF?

Challenge the top guardian! ? ?

This sentence instantly caused a huge wave in the hearts of every defender. Of course, they were only surprised for a moment before they calmed down.

After all, the other party was the one who killed the Lord of Locking Domain, so it was not surprising that he had the confidence to challenge the top guardian.

Just hearing these words really makes it hard to calm down.

Who was the last person to challenge the top guardian? It must have been the second guardian, right?

"Huh? It's you, you really came."

A familiar old voice sounded out of nowhere, and in full view of everyone, the Spirit of Trial appeared in the center of the hall, looking at Gu Yeming with a smile.

"You want to challenge the top guardian?"

"Ah."

"Of course you can, but...it seems someone doesn't agree."

Hearing this, Gu Yeming frowned slightly. At this moment, a voice sounded not far away.

"and many more."

Gu Yeming heard the sound and looked over, only to see a man slowly standing up from his chair.

The man had a slender figure, an angular face, and black hair fluttering in the wind. He was wearing a silver feather coat, a black tights underneath, and black boots.

He held a long sword with a golden halo, the blade was light and sharp.

The whole person looks like a modern warrior.

He looked at Gu Yeming with sharp eyes and said:

"If you want to challenge the top guardian, you must get past me."

?

A big question mark seemed to appear above Gu Yeming's head. He frowned slightly, glanced at the man, and responded in a calm voice:

"I want to challenge the top guardian, what does it have to do with you?"

"Mind your own business, get out of here."

The man was not angry. He smiled and shook his head, responding:

"Gu Yeming, you don't know that the rules of the Peak Tower are different from the rules of the three towers below."

"Inside the Peak Tower, no one, whether from the lower, middle, or upper levels, can directly challenge the top level guardian. The difference in strength is too great. Even if they do, the outcome is predictable."

"According to the Trial Spirit, it doesn't want to manage a battle that is bound to be a foregone conclusion."

"Of course, I don't mean to say you're weak, Gu Yeming. Your achievements have spread throughout the entire dimension, and I've also heard about them in other dimensions."

"With your abilities, you will definitely be able to fight even against the top-level defenders."

"So, not only are the rules of the Peak Tower in question, I personally want to fight you to the best of my ability."

"I know you have no interest in a dick like me, but I can pay the price."

“And it’s a one-way bet.”

"If I win, you don't lose anything."

"On the other hand, if I lose, I'll be at your disposal. It's not impossible for me to become your subordinate."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked.

What did the second-level guardian say?

He actually said something like that, was he confident or stupid?!

The second-level guardian clearly knew what everyone was thinking. He snorted coldly, placed his arms across his chest, and said calmly:

"Don't you understand yet?"

"The great era is approaching. Whether it is the dimension or other planes, unimaginable turmoil has occurred."

"Whether it's the young man in white or Gu Yeming in front of us, they both have the ability to influence the situation."

"Under this backdrop, even the strongest of the universe cannot remain immune. On the contrary, we are the most eye-catching ones."

"If we want to get a piece of the pie, or if we want to survive in the great world that follows, we must make a choice now."

Having said that, he stared into Gu Yeming's eyes and continued:

"I've heard of your deeds. Whether it was winning the A-Zone Champion of the Domain Competition, slaying nine demon cultivators with a single sword strike, or forcibly killing the Domain Locking Venerable, the time intervals between these three major events were incredibly close. This means that in less than half a year, you completed the leap from Calamity-level to the pinnacle of the Universe-level."

"No wonder the outside world says that your growth rate is so fast, it's simply astonishing and unprecedented."

"With your growth rate, you will definitely become stronger in a short time."

"Plus, the news of your recent massive devouring of planes has spread completely. And I heard that being devoured by you doesn't seem to lead to direct death, but rather exists in your body in another form?"

Hearing this, Gu Yeming was not surprised at all.

This was not leaked by anyone, but he did it deliberately and arranged for someone to spread the news.

Regardless of whether it works or not, at least in this way, there will definitely be planes or strong individuals who will think about taking sides.

Look, this second-level guardian in front of us is a good example.

The other party knew clearly that the young man in white and himself were currently harvesting the plane on a large scale, and sooner or later it would affect him.

Instead of passively waiting for that day to accept it, it is better to be proactive and choose sides in advance. At least there is still a good way out.

Generally, the strongest people in the universe are already the top figures in the entire domain and even in other dimensions of the world. They are all arrogant and will not have any idea of submitting to others. They can be said to be the type who will not cry until they see the coffin.

But the other party did the opposite. Just like Augulidu before, he made the decision early and was quite decisive.

Judging from the overall assessment, the person in front of me is undoubtedly a very self-aware person, whether in terms of overall view or other aspects.

People like this, even if they don't succeed in the future, at least they won't be too bad.

Thinking of this, Gu Yeming became interested. He calmly used a reconnaissance skill on the other party.

[You have used the reconnaissance skill on???]

[Reconnaissance.....]

[Reconnaissance successful! Below is the attribute panel for Universal-level Blade Madman Lin Tian]

......

The level of the top world-class strongest person?

Looking at the attribute panel in front of him, Gu Yeming was slightly surprised.

However, it was not unexpected.

The top guardians are definitely at the top world level, and are even among the strongest among the top. The second, third, and fourth ones below them are also definitely at the top level.

The bit domain is indeed the central hub of a large number of planes. Of course, we are talking about a large number here, not all.

There are still many undiscovered planes of existence. Some of these planes are strong, and some are weak. Among them, there are also two extremely powerful planes like the Abyss and the Weird Plane.

For example, the strong man in front of us named Lin Tian.

Whether as a player before or now, Gu Yeming has never heard of any information or intelligence about the other party.

This shows that the other party does not really appear frequently in the field of vision of the dimension or even other dimensions, and his main range of activities is still in the dimension of his birth and status.

Moreover, the man in front of him looked very young and had such a decisive character, which made Gu Yeming wonder if the other party was the son of destiny in a certain plane. After successfully defeating the big boss of his own plane, he was about to open up a new map, such as the dimension domain, when he received an invitation from the Peak Tower.

Thinking of this, Gu Yeming looked at Lin Tian in surprise, but didn't say anything. He just nodded slightly and responded in a low voice:

"Okay, just don't forget what you just said."

"Of course." Lin Tian nodded heavily. He raised the long sword in his hand, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

"I've heard about your deeds a long time ago, Gu Yeming."

"Now that I have this opportunity to fight you, I naturally won't let it go."

"Master Spirit of Trial, please teleport us to the duel arena."
