《Breeding Dragons From Today》Chapter 398: Light Screen Ranking. Pentagram Symbol
Advertisement
Joelson was shocked.
This place was different from the trial plane. In the trial plane, the laws condensed after the law creatures died were very pure, no different from the laws absorbed through meditation.
However, this was the divine kingdom left behind by the previous God of Slaughter. There might still be remnants of will in these laws.
If he absorbed too many of these laws, it might affect him.
However, Joelson soon felt that among these laws, there wasn't any remnant will left behind by the previous God of Slaughter that he believed in.
Instead, it was very pure. There wasn't any problem in absorbing it.
Joelson guessed that it was probably because the previous God of Slaughter had died too long ago.
The power of his laws and the arcane had once again become a pure power that didn't contain his will.
Thinking of this, Joelson let out a sigh of relief and relaxed.
At this moment, he suddenly discovered that his slaughter divine spark seemed to have grown a bit.
Joelson's eyes slightly widened and a hint of astonishment flashed through them.
Just how rich was the power of the laws and the arcane contained within these ten plus giant wolves?
One had to know that these were divine sparks!
For ordinary demigods to increase their divine sparks, even just a little bit, would require at least a thousand years of time!
But just by relying on the power of the laws and arcane mysteries he had condensed after the death of these ten plus giant wolves, he was actually able to increase his slaughter divine spark by a little bit!
If that was the case, then wouldn't the other people who entered the fallen divine kingdom only need to kill a few hundred of these giant wolves to directly advance to the god level?
Joelson couldn't help but sigh.
No wonder everyone, even if they didn't have the key to the inheritance, would frantically try to enter the sovereign's tomb.

This sort of temptation was something that no one could refuse.
However, Joelson didn't pay too much attention to it. Compared to the inheritance of a sovereign or the inheritance of the fallen divine kingdom...
This bit of power of the laws and arcane mysteries really wasn't much.
After all, if he wanted to advance to the god level, he had to make all sixteen divine sparks reach the god level.
Just as Joelson was thinking about this...
The blood-red screen of light hanging high in the sky suddenly began to flicker.
Joelson raised his head to look.
He saw that the names on the screen were beginning to change.
Some of the names were followed by numbers that were no longer zero. Instead, other numbers appeared, and their rankings began to rise.
Joelson narrowed his eyes, his eyes flashing.
He saw a familiar name.
At the top of the blood-red screen.
Third Place: Clemente. Score: 3,290.
Above Clemente, there were two names he did not recognize, and one of them had a pentagram behind it.
Joelson did not care who these two people were, and he began to search for his name.
Soon, he found his name, not because he was ranked high, but because he found that his name was also followed by a five-pointed star symbol.
Joelson's eyes continued to wander on the light screen and, soon, he found another name with a five-pointed star symbol behind it.
But there was only one.
On the blood-red light screen, there were three names with a five-pointed star symbol behind the name.
Joelson guessed that this five-pointed star might represent the key to the inheritance.
At the same time, Joelson was also puzzled.
After killing more than a dozen giant wolves, his score reached 1,225, and his ranking rose to more than 100.
What was the use of this ranking and score?
Joelson couldn't help but think about it, but he couldn't figure it out.

But he was sure that this ranking and score must be related to the inheritance trial!
Similarly, since there was a ranking and score, then the higher the ranking and score, the better!
Joelson's eyes flickered.
Then, he flew toward the direction of the blood-red light curtain, continuously flying toward the center of the lost divine kingdom.
...
A few days later.
In a dense forest.
Joelson put away his slaughter sword and looked at the floating light clusters in front of him. He released his spiritual power and absorbed all of them.
The power of the slaughter laws and arcane truths contained in these light clusters was much denser than the dozen or so giant wolves that he had encountered when he had just entered.
After the slaughter divine spark had absorbed this power of arcane truths, it grew a little larger. The blood-red light seemed to be even more dazzling. Even the rarest ruby could not compare to it.
The slaughter divinity was now much larger than when he had first entered.
Over the past few days, he had not met anyone else who had entered the tomb of the sovereign. However, he had encountered many creatures condensed from the arcane.
Moreover, as he slowly approached the center of the fallen divine kingdom, the strength of these arcane powers began to grow stronger.
In order to save the power of arcane contained within the divinity, he began to reduce the use of spells that had fused with the arcane.
He had no choice but to use the slaughter sword.
After absorbing a few light blobs, Joelson raised his head and looked over.
Even in the dense forest, with the huge canopy blocking it, the blood-red light screen could still be seen very clearly.
His name had risen to 50th place.
Joelson frowned slightly, a trace of doubt in his eyes.
He had killed a lot of arcane power creatures in the past few days, but his arcane power didn't give him many points.
At this moment, although the arcane power creatures had given him more points, they were also much stronger than ordinary geniuses.
At least, if the arcane power creatures he had killed joined hands to attack him, even the arena lords of the Orencia Empire wouldn't be able to resist them.
However, even though he had killed many powerful arcane creatures, his ranking was still only fifty.
There were forty-nine people who had surpassed him in the rankings.
Logically speaking, this wasn't possible.
Joelson became even more puzzled.
Those who had surpassed him in the rankings had either killed more powerful arcane creatures with higher scores or killed more arcane creatures.
The geniuses who entered the lost divine kingdom could only reach the peak demigod realm at most. There shouldn't be many people who could kill such powerful arcane creatures.
Was it because his luck was too bad that he had encountered too few arcane creatures?
And the forty-nine people who ranked higher than him had encountered a large number of arcane creatures, which was why they had obtained so many points?
Joelson frowned even more.
It was even more impossible.
If they had encountered a large number of powerful arcane creatures, not to mention killing them all, not many people would have survived.
It seemed that there were still some things he didn't know about the ranking and the points.
Joelson shook his head and didn't think anymore.
He could only wait until he met the others to see if they knew.
Just as he was about to leave.
A voice sounded.
"We're so lucky! We met another one who's alone!"

Child of Dusk
Life can be cruel, especially to those who don't fit in. But what would you do if you were given a second chance? Tim was a nobody during his time on Earth. As a penniless orphan with no friends to speak of, life was tough for him in his little Arizona town in the '90s. He'd utterly lost hope for the future until one day, he was reincarnated as Alvanue, beloved daughter and heir to the Starlit Throne of Silthonduen. Now, Alvanue has everything a princess could ever want: a loving family, loyal comrades and an entire kingdom at her finger tips. But what good is a kingdom when there's a whole world of magic and mystery out there to explore? *** Ok! Disclaimer time. I do edit my own work and I do not have a beta reader, so please feel free to point out any errors or plot holes (politely, of course). Each chapter will be around 4,000 to 6,000 words long and while I was posting every day at the beginning, I think I'll cut that down to once a week for now, excluding bonus chapters! I really don't want to get burned out. I started writing this because I love world building, so this is gonna be heavy on lore. If you're not into that, there's still a ton of character progression and action to look forward to! It's going to be slow at the beginning, but I promise it will pick up eventually. Thanks for checking my story out, I appreciate it a lot!

The Fall
Perhaps the most well known of all devils, demons, or fallen angels is the one known as Lucifer, Satan, the Father of Lies. The cultural influence of this figure throughout history is by no means small. Despite that, it wasn’t until the time of Milton’s classic – Paradise Lost – that we saw an attempt to portray a dramatized version of the events leading to this figure’s fall from grace and power. And while this is the case, Paradise Lost is not about Lucifer – though it goes into great detail about his potential musings. No, Paradise Lost was, and still is, about the fall of mankind. So, in light of this, and the feeling that the classical story deserved another telling, I present to you all The Fall – a story focused particularly on Lucifer’s fall from grace and his musings both before and after.

To Blunt The Sharpest Claw
The Velvet Paw of Asquith Novels are a series of New Fable genre novels that involve cats and dogs and high adventure and romance and espionage and food-fights and hotels and explosions and car chases. With large casts, exotic locations and an absurdity only possible in the absence of human characters, the Velvet Paw of Asquith Novels blend Wind in the Willows with James Bond, though with more cafes and fewer badgers. This submission is the third title in its Morigan Trilogy, beginning two-thirds of the way through the series' longest adventure yet. Here's a quick recount of what's happened so far: When Oscar Teabag-Dooven, a Velvet Paw of Asquith, is ordered to investigate how a mysterious poet, the Ar'dath-Irr, is able to travel instantaneously around the world, two very bad things happen. Firstly, he meets Lydia, an insane librarian who punches everyone in the face, and secondly, the Ar'dath-Irr reveals he is intent on taking over the world. Although this second thing might be considered worse than the first, Oscar feels differently following Lydia’s destruction of a cafe, a library and his face in one afternoon. In comparison, thwarting world domination just seems easier. Along with Binklemitre, a fellow Velvet Paw of Asquith, and Lydia, Oscar infiltrates the Ar’dath-Irr’s realm of dark poetry to discover the dog not only intends wrenching the world apart but has no intention of cleaning up afterwards. As a result, Oscar decides it’s all too hard and goes home to have a bath. After lots of arguing and the sort of food fight that posh restaurants were invented for, Lydia and Binklemitre convince him that they must stop the Ar’dath-Irr for several reasons, one of them quite serious. A vibrant cast of characters collide as Oscar, Lydia and Binklemitre battle the Ar’dath-Irr and his disciples in an adventure involving exploding cafés and appalling hotels, car chases and inadvertent surgery, dreadful poetry, lots of arguments and at least one temper-tantrum, all of which draw the three into dark and convoluted corners of a world they weren’t aware existed. Moreover, any chance of sitting down and discussing things over some buns disappears when Lydia punches the Ar’dath-Irr in the face. This results in her having a psychotic episode and Oscar getting run over by an ambulance. Although Binklemitre suffers neither, he witnesses both, which is almost as dreadful, though not nearly so messy. An enormous battle ensues, followed by a dinner party and then everything explodes.
