Although the [Game Official] designated this trial as an [Otherworld Evil Extermination Event].
Xiao Mo knew the [Game Official]'s true objective was to have them slaughter all the demons.
This was to prevent the otherworld from becoming a second Demon Clan, threatening the survival of the Primordial Continent.
If they only hunted demons, even if they reached first place on the [Evil Extermination Competition Leaderboard], they might not be able to leave immediately.
Although his supplies were sufficient for his Immortal and Demon soldiers to stay there for years.
The Immortal and Demon Empire on the Primordial Continent could not wait for him that long.
Once the God of Annihilation, Blood Butcher, and the Glorious Empire's Sovereign, Hess Adam, attacked his empire again.
The Immortal and Demon Empire would surely fall. If they couldn't leave, they would lose their home.
That would be a huge loss.
It wasn't that he didn't trust the protection of the Nature Goddess and the Faith Beast God factions.
They were merely allies, not bound by any deep friendship.
Moreover, as gods, they had their own affairs to attend to.
Defending for a day or two was possible, but for a month? Unless they had absolutely nothing else to do, they wouldn't be tasked with such a duty.
Therefore, he had to conclude this quickly!
Xian'er also said:
"The world laws of this realm are currently in a very poor state. The order of this world could collapse at any moment, as demonic energy is eroding the spiritual essence of the world laws."
"I believe the world laws are hiding in the core of the earth to evade the invasion of demonic energy."
"But after such a long time, the Demon Clan, desperate to escape this place, found every means to invade the world laws, and thus followed them underground."
"They even moved their base there, hoping to accelerate the erosion of the world laws' spiritual essence through this method."
Xiao Mo's brow furrowed as he heard this, and he said:
"So our mission is extremely urgent. If the world laws are completely eroded, this otherworld will undergo unpredictable changes."
He did not know if this world would collapse if the world laws were indeed invaded by demonic energy.
And whether these demons would enter the Primordial Continent.
If that happened, the situation would be truly dire.
Because the demons here were essentially a second iteration of the otherworldly Demon Clan from hundreds of thousands of years ago.
What's worse, the Demon Clan from hundreds of thousands of years ago was also stirring.
They would re-enter the Primordial Continent in the near future.
One otherworldly Demon Clan had already put the Elf Goddess on high alert, causing her to personally intervene in the conflict between two divine factions.
She didn't want them to fight, aiming to preserve strength to focus on conquering the otherworldly Demon Clan.
If a large portion of their castle forces were lost here, and they also released the second iteration of the otherworldly Demon Clan.
Then, the Primordial Continent might become a third demon stronghold.
Devastation, corpses strewn everywhere, devoid of life... this would be the future of the Primordial Continent.
Therefore, to prevent such a tragedy from occurring on the Primordial Continent, even without the rewards from the [Game Official].
No matter what, Xiao Mo would give his all to stop this tragedy from happening.
Xiao Mo stated firmly, "No matter what, we must enter the core of the earth and slaughter all the demon nests there."
The Immortal and Demon soldiers looked at Xiao Mo with admiration and spoke in unison:
"Yes!"
"So, we don't need to panic."
"With the great Holy Lord here, no accidents will occur."
"This world will surely be the Holy Lord's territory in the end!"
"That's right!"
Each powerful Immortal and Demon soldier was filled with respect and fervent devotion.
Each of them firmly believed that their Holy Lord's endeavors would never fail.
...
Under the relentless suppression of the Immortal and Demon armies, the surrounding demons were quickly being annihilated.
Everywhere they went, nothing was left behind.
Currently, on the [Evil Extermination Competition Leaderboard], the Immortal and Demon Empire's Xiao Mo firmly held the first place, leading the second place by more than tenfold.
As most of the demons on the surface were surrounded by the Immortal and Demon armies.
Although the surface had been chaotic initially, with the cooperation of the Immortal and Demon armies, the number of demons dwindled.
The scene gradually calmed down.
Soon, the remaining castles and rangers could no longer find any trace of demons and were left with nothing to do.
At this moment, someone opened the [Evil Extermination Competition Leaderboard] to check if their name was in the top 100.
To their astonishment, they discovered that Xiao Mo was not only in first place but also more than tenfold ahead of the second place, leaving them dumbfounded.
[Evil Extermination Competition Leaderboard First Place: Xiao Mo]
[Demons Eliminated: 17,066]
[Points Earned: 30,000]
[Second Place: Jin Xuan]
[Demons Eliminated: 950]
[Points Earned: 1,500]
[Third Place: ...]
[... ]
The conversion of points varied depending on the level of the demons killed.
Higher-level demons, when eliminated, yielded more points.
In the final settlement, the calculation was based on a 3:7 ratio of demon count to points.
Seeing this string of terrifying data, the lords were stunned.
What shocked them even more was that these numbers were constantly increasing at a very high speed.
The lords who were initially proud of killing dozens of demons felt their faces flush.
What kind of monster could kill so many demons?
These demons only appeared after dark, and barely two hours had passed since then.
[Holy crap! Family, did you see the ranking of Boss Xiao Mo? First place!]
[And the gap with the second place is more than tenfold, is this even human?]
[No, no, Boss Xiao Mo is human, but we are just cattle.]
[Stay strong, brother, don't say that about yourself, you're also great.]
[What's your ranking again?]
[Heh, not even in the top hundred.]
[Don't mention it, Boss Xiao Mo is a god. We can't use him as a standard, or we'll just end up pissing ourselves off.]
[Right, but it's still incredibly astonishing.]
[Over 17,000 in two hours, what does that even mean?!]
[In these two hours, I only killed 7. He's 20,000 times faster than me, really, heh.]
Some who knew explained.
[You were teamed up with the lords, which is why you killed so few.]
[Xiao Mo has his own army, it wasn't just him killing them, which is why the numbers are so high.]
