Chapter 91: Above Sovereign
Hundreds of black dots had suddenly appeared in the sky and were falling toward the ground at an insane speed.
If David was a normal human, he might not have been able to look at the situation properly, but David wasn't a normal human. He was someone whose body was enhanced and transformed, becoming better in every aspect.
David easily identified these black dots to be humans.
With every passing minute, their bodies grew bigger. It wouldn't be long before they would hit the ground.
"Sjdjdj janke jsjdkjd skskkse," at this time, the armored man spoke again.
"Manager, he is asking us to back away," Sebastian translated the words for David to make him aware of what the armored man was saying.
David nodded and backed away.
At this time, another man dressed in flashy armor arrived at their location. Three eye-shaped objects were also floating around him, capturing his every movement.
The man's body was covered in golden armor, with only his head exposed.
"Alright! Everyone welcome back to the show."
"I am your homie Golden Man live from the set of a legendary show."
"Thousand Ways to Die."
The man moved like a rockstar with the eye-shaped cameras following behind him.
In a practiced movement, he addressed the crowd to capture their attention. Even David, who didn't understand his language, could understand what he was trying to convey.
"Alright guys, the poll is live, don't forget to give your votes." The Golden Man performed strange aerobatics in the air and moved to the side.
At this time, hundreds of humans hit the ground at insane speed one after the other.
The bodies which were moving at hundreds of kilometers per hour were forced to suddenly stop.
Keep in mind, these were mortal humans; as a result, their bodies were extremely fragile.
Upon hitting the ground, their bodies experienced extreme deceleration. The sudden stop caused massive trauma to their bodies. The bones shattered, internal organs were severely damaged.
The impact was fatal.
At this time, the three cameras of Golden Man were completely focused on the crashing humans, capturing every detail of this tragic accident and showing it to the whole world live.
The surface was uneven; in some places, there was a patch of grass, and in some places, there was hard solid stone.
The bodies which hit the soft patch of grass were only deformed, and the bodies which hit the hard stones exploded with blood and internal organs flying in every direction.
They painted the ground red with their crimson blood.
"Did you see this, my friends!"
"Hands down, this has to be the most brutal way a person can die," the Golden Man shouted in a loud voice, his face filled with fervor.
"I am sure some of you might have gotten excited."
"You can click on the link down below and join the next episode of A Thousand Ways to Die for free."
David's mouth was wide open, as he tried to comprehend the scene before him.
From the actions of Golden Man, David felt as if the brutal deaths were part of some sort of TV show for people's entertainment.
And yeah, he was right; these were part of a show, but one of the least popular shows.
Because in reality, these people didn't die, they just lost their physical bodies and their souls were still fine and dandy.
In various corners of the Eternal world, tens of red lights flashed and naked humans appeared one after the other.
Their skin was soft as babies' with not a hint of pollution on it.
If David was closely looking at the bodies that had crashed on the ground, he would have recognized that some of these newly appeared humans had the same appearance as the humans that died.
"Which bastard said destroying your body by falling from a great height was worth it?"
"Fucking bastard, I didn't feel a thing," one young man muttered in annoyance, and in the next moment, his body flashed and he disappeared from the place.

"You moron, don't you know I was shooting in this place? How dare you appear here?" The Golden Man looked at David furiously with anger burning in his eyes.
Of course, to David, it still sounded like incomprehensible gibberish, but he could tell from his expression that the Golden Man was angry.
This greatly annoyed him.
David turned his head and looked at Sebastian with expectations in his eyes.
However, Sebastian's attention was somewhere else.
He was examining the meat patty on the ground closely, his eyes flashing from time to time.
David looked at his second-best alternative. Mary felt his gaze and smiled charmingly.
"Darling, he is just jealous of your good looks, don't mind him," Mary lovingly said and moved closer in his direction.
The Golden Man said something more and in the next moment, his body flashed and he disappeared.
The three armored men had also disappeared just after the Golden man.
The scene caused David's eyes to narrow.
These people had not a single drop of mana in their bodies, so how could they suddenly disappear?
"I think I know where we are," at this time, Mary spoke with seriousness.
The seriousness almost didn't suit her.
Her words even attracted the attention of the stone-cold Ruby.
After making sure that everyone's attention was on her.
"Two of you might already know, but let me still repeat these words," Mary slowly spoke while eyeing Sebastian and Ruby, in the end focusing her attention on David.
"There is an ancient legend in the Vast Expanse Region: the path to go beyond a Sovereign lies in the place where the immortals live."
Mary at this time repeated the same legends that she had heard from her seniors when she was young.
As everyone already knew, the Crystallization of Life mainly divided into three grades.
King.
Emperor.
And at the top, the Sovereign.
But that didn't end here; according to the legend, there was still a grade above Sovereign.
If cultivators could manage to find the place where immortals lived, they could evolve their Crystallization of Life to the next grade and become gods among men.
