Chapter 321: All Captured At Once, the World Goes Ape

A gang fight had broken out just like that.

In terms of physique alone, the 66 Kryptonians were all stronger and sturdier than Ling Jiu was.

As the fighting broke out, people suddenly discovered that Ling Jiu, who fought against multiple enemies, could still hold up. He was extremely brutal. The more he fought, the more courageous he became.

He arrived in front of a Kryptonian in a flash and kicked that Kryptonian in the chest. The Kryptonian coughed up a mouthful of blood as it was sent flying back.

Afterward, Ling Jiu teleported up to a second Kryptonian. His violent power exploded and sent this Kryptonian flying too.

Ling Jiu moved like a ghost as he shuttled through the Kryptonians. Those who had been in contact with him flew out backward, one after another.

Over 30 Kryptonians were now out of the battle ring.

There was dead silence on the Internet, as no one thought that Ling Jiu could be so terrifyingly powerful.

Sixty-six Kryptonians of the level of the king of the gods were joining hands. Instead of killing Ling Jiu, they were crushed by him with ease. They just did not stand a chance.

Bathed in golden light, Ling Jiu looked like the god of war from heaven. It left a deep impression on everyone.

"Come on. Keep it coming!"

Ling Jiu guffawed, his fighting spirit boiling, aura rising from his body as if on steroids. His energy had climbed to another height in just a matter of a few breaths.

"Impossible! How could he be so strong?"

Feeling the energy on Ling Jiu, General Zod's face turned pale, as if Ling Jiu was a monster.

He could not imagine not even understanding why the human in front of him could raise his strength like a bottomless pit.

He did not know that this was the horror of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar.

The Golden Saiyan Ape avatar was the ultimate Golden Saiyan Ape warrior, and its current physical attribute index was 15 million times higher than Ling Jiu's. It was indeed impressive.

It meant that Ling Jiu could summon something 15 million times his own strength.

Fifteen million times was enough to bridge the gap between galactic and super-clustered beings.

The longer Ling Jiu fought, the more excited he became. He had never experienced such an all-out fight like this since the birth of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar.

Ordinary Kryptonians were too weak to satisfy his fighting demand.

So Ling Jiu teleported up to General Kal and struck out his fist in a cannonball-like punch.

General Kal's face changed. Violent energy burst out of him as he quickly unleashed a punch to meet his opponent.

Both fists collided with an earth-shattering bang.

General Kal screamed as he was flying out backward, his right arm, which had deformed from the impact, trembling slightly.

Look over at Ling Jiu; he was unscathed.

An exchange of blows had revealed the enormous gap between them.

All the Kryptonians were terrified, and they felt endless despair when they saw the outcome.

General Zod had lost, and now, even General Kal had been defeated. How powerful was this human? Could they even defeat him at this point?

"Are all of you scared now?"

Ling Jiu stopped attacking when he saw those Kryptonians stopped.

The Kryptonians were in collective silence.

They were terrified. In all their combat experience, they had never met such a powerful being like Ling Jiu. How could they beat him this way?

"Since you are all scared, there is no need for this battle to go on."

Ling Jiu shook his head reluctantly, despite wanting for more. "Do it, Leoux."

"You got it," Leoux responded. Black light jetted from Ling Jiu's wrist and turned into 66 black ropes that shot toward the 66 Kryptonians.

"What is that?"

The faces of General Zod and the other Kryptonians changed. They did not know what it was, but they instantly sensed the danger it posed.

They bounced back at once, without hesitation. But it was too late. The black ropes were much faster and caught them before they could flee.

"D*mn it!"

"What is this?"

General Zod and other Kryptonians roared in anger as they tried to fight back, but it was to no avail.

The black ropes looked like something illusory, but they were extremely tough. No matter how hard they struggled, they could not break free from them.

"Retrieve!"

Leoux snapped his fingers softly.

The next moment, the black ropes retracted and brought the 66 Kryptonians back to Ling Jiu.

They were shrinking as they were pulled toward Ling Jiu. By the time they arrived, they had shrunk to the point where they were almost as tiny as dust before being pulled into Ling Jiu's wrist.

A breeze blew, and the world returned to normal. All the Kryptonians had vanished. Ling Jiu was the only person remaining above the pantheon.

The billions of netizens in front of the screen watched on in astonishment.

"What's the situation?"

"What just happened?"

"Where are the Kryptonians? Why are they missing?"

"It seems that Ling Jiu has taken them away."

"D*mn! He took away 66 Kryptonians in the blink of an eye. How did he do that?"

"I don't care how he did it. I only know that from now on, the two mountains hanging over our heads have been removed."

"I can't agree more. The gods are dead, and the Kryptonians were taken by Ling Jiu. Earth is free from now on."

"Five years ago, the gods were born, and Earth plunged into despair. Following the appearance of the gods, the Kryptonians also come to Earth. The Earth was ruled by demons, and humanity fell from the altar of glory. But today, Ling Jiu has wiped out the gods and taken away the Kryptonians. I can't describe the satisfaction!"

"Ling Jiu is absolutely strong. I found that I have fallen in love with him. He is my idol. I can't control myself now."

Online platforms like Weibo, forums, and Twitter were swarming with people expressing their joy.

Humanity had been suppressed for too long. For hundreds of thousands of years, humanity was the master of the earth.

However, during the emergence of the gods and Kryptonians in the past five years, humans had been deprived of their masterhood. They had slipped from the top of the food chain to becoming slaves and ants that could be trampled on and bullied at will.

Humans had to grin and bear it for the past five years. Today, they had finally gotten their vengeance, and it felt so good.

"All hail Ling Jiu!"

"All hail Ling Jiu!"

"All hail Ling Jiu!"

Billions of people commented online in different languages and voices.

Other than ordinary netizens, government officials, parliamentarians, and politicians from some countries also issued their statements.

"During the five-year reign of the gods and Kryptonians, our planet was in a state of mess."

"Those gods and Kryptonians were certainly hateful. But let's not forget those traitors, who are even more hateful. Our priority is to kill these traitors and bring Earth toward a bright future."

Report chapter

Chapter 322: Breaking Free From Imprisonment, Uranus

While the Kryptonians had been wiped out by Ling Jiu, and the entire world was in a carnival atmosphere, the remaining gods were paralyzed with terror.

The most powerful gods had been wiped out, and the rest were just small fry. Ling Jiu would definitely go after them. What should they do?

Meanwhile, in a palace in the center of Mount Olympus, several gods were quaking in their boots.

Had Zeus and other Greek gods been still there, they would definitely have recognized them as only some weak and marginalized gods of the Greek deities.

For example, the goddess of the sea Thalassa, the Dryads, the god of sleep Hypnos, and the pure water goddess Doris.

At this moment, these weaker gods were extremely frightened. Because of their menial status, they could not take part in today's meeting of the pantheons. They could only stay in the mountainside to guard the wormhole, so they escaped the holocaust. But they knew what happened in the outside world.

"What should we do now, everyone? That brutal human will definitely find us here. He will kill us all. What should we do?"

While a few gods panicked, the goddess of pure water spoke.

"Since things have come to such a pass, we could do nothing and have nowhere to go save for two alternatives."

"Which two alternatives?"

The other gods looked at the goddess of pure water with hopefulness in their eyes.

"We either destroy the wormhole and cut off the passage between the planet Olympus and Earth, or return to planet Olympus and free the imprisoned Primordial gods." The pure water goddess said slowly.

"Free the Primordial gods?"

"No, no! We absolutely can't do this!"

"The Primordial gods will kill us!"

The faces of several gods changed drastically at hearing the second alternative, their heads shaking like a rattle drum.

It was because they knew who the Primordial gods were, they vehemently disagreed with the idea of freeing the Primordial gods.

Because it was no different from suicide.

The pure water goddess nodded in acknowledgement. She understood their concerns. After all, the Greek pantheon had experienced three generational transitions.

The current gods were the third generation, with Zeus as the king of the gods.

Before this, there were two generations in the Greek pantheon, namely the second generation of the Titans, and the first generation of the Primordial gods!

The Titans were killed, banished, or exiled. Except for Cronus, who had been imprisoned, the other Titans could no longer make a comeback.

But the Primordial gods were too powerful to be killed. So they could only be permanently imprisoned on planet Olympus.

The pure water goddess believed that if they freed the Primordial gods, they would have hope in defeating Ling Jiu, the human, and restore the dignity and glory of the Greek pantheon.

But no one dared to do this.

The reason was, the Primordial gods were overly powerful. No one was sure what would happen after the Primordial gods were freed.

"We had better go with the first alternative." The god of sleep shook his head. "Destroy the wormhole to cut off the passage between Olympus and Earth. By then, human can't go to Olympus, and we will be safe."

"Agree!"

"Me, too!"

Several gods nodded in agreement. They had a consensus. And so they got into the wormhole and came to Olympus at once.

Just when they were about to destroy the wormhole, the ground under their feet shook.

The tremor followed by the appearance of a powerful aura in the air, repressing the mind of the god of sleep and others.

"This aura is…"

The god of sleep and others exchanged a glance with each other, their faces changing. They rose into the sky to look for the source of the repressive energy.

They then saw a towering figure rising tens of thousands of meters in the blue sky.

This figure was majestic. His muscles were as solid as rocks, his blood vessels flowing like rivers, his hair as thick as a forest, and his eyes sparkling like lakes.

He was massive. Even the sunlight was blocked off when he stood in the sky.

A powerful repressive aura radiated from this majestic giant, wantonly repressing the earth, the soul of every living being.

"U—Uranus!"

"This is the aura of Uranus!"

The face of the god of sleep changed drastically.

They might be the most menial gods of the Greek pantheon, but they certainly knew Uranus, the famous Primordial god.

"How is it possible? How did Uranus come out? Isn't he permanently imprisoned? How did he come out?"

"I think the death of Zeus and other gods in battle has weakened the seal. That is why Uranus can escape."

"That's it! It must be so!"

"It doesn't matter how Uranus broke free. I am most concerned with what we should do."

"What can we do? Run! Uranus will definitely kill us. He hates us all."

"Absolutely right! Run!"

Just as the god of sleep and other gods were about to flee, Uranus in the sky spotted them and grabbed them with his hand that was more massive than a mountain.

"No—"

The god of sleep and his mates screamed in horror, but it was useless. Uranus's hand was not fast, but he could easily grab them in his hand.

He then threw them in his mouth and chewed.

No one else knew what happened on Olympus. Meanwhile, Ling Jiu was not sitting idly.

After slaughtering the 66 Kryptonians, he flew straight towards America.

He knew exactly how many Kryptonians there were on Earth, as they were under Leoux's monitoring. He wanted to capture all the remaining Kryptonians.

It just took Ling Jiu one teleportation, and he had come to America.

The funny thing was, the Kryptonian had apparently seen him coming and were flying towards Antarctica.

Their intentions could not have been more apparent; they planned to return to Mars before Ling Jiu could find them and destroy the wormhole.

But things do not always go according to plan, as reality is cruel. Before they could fly out of America, Ling Jiu intercepted them.

"Where are you all going, eh?"

Ling Jiu looked at these over a thousand Kryptonians with a smile, as if he had found his precious babes.

"You—you—you are that human!"

The face of the leading Kryptonian sank, his voice trembling. "How did you arrive so fast?"

"Let's cut the crap. You now have one chance: surrender and become my obedient slaves. Don't say I didn't warn you." Ling Jiu waved his hand impatiently.

"Human, don't go too far! We Kryptonians would rather die a martyr than become your slaves!"

"Leoux, grab them!" Ling Jiu did not give a damn and asked Leoux to capture them all. "Brainwash them as soon as possible. I will have to go to the asteroid belt to expand the Inner World of the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar in two days."

"You got it." Leoux nodded in acknowledgement.

"Let's clean up the lair of the major deities, capture those who have more potential and brainwash them," Ling Jiu said. "The more the gardeners, the better."

"You got it. The Mayan deities are the closest to us. Let's go there first. What do you think?"

"Do as you say."

Chapter 323: Yanhuang Deities, the Titans

Among all the pantheons, the Mayan pantheon was not the most powerful but middle level. The most powerful beings were the Ennead.

The god of wrath, the king of the gods, was killed by Ling Jiu in the previous battle. Now the most powerful one was the Ennead, commonly known as the Nine Mayan Gods.

They were the god of the sky, rain, clouds, war, death, sacrifices, wind, and the goddess of Polaris.

The Nine Mayan Gods apparently knew what had happened to the pantheons. They gathered the remaining Mayan gods in front of the wormhole as they were prepared to destroy the wormhole connecting Earth.

Just then, Ling Jiu came.

The Nine Mayan gods were struck dumb.

"Is this the lair of the Mayan gods?"

Ling Jiu looked at the planet and could not help nodding. This is also a habitable planet, covered entirely in forests.

The plants differed from those on Earth, but still covered a large proportion of this habitable planet.

Such a habitable planet was a vast treasure, which would come in handy for humans in the future.

Ling Jiu's eyes landed on the Mayan gods.

There were not many of them, just about 130, and their strength was ordinary. All of them were stellar beings.

Ling Jiu did not bother to speak to them. Instead, he asked Leoux to capture them all, and then he left.

The actions of the Mayan gods were warnings for Ling Jiu. These gods were better than he thought; they had gotten the wind of his coming beforehand. So he had to capture them all before they destroyed the wormhole.

There would be nothing he could do about them if they destroyed the wormhole.

"Ling Jiu," Leoux said, "there are pantheons on Earth. We can't possibly wipe off all of them in such a short time. So my suggestion is to go to the lairs of the most powerful pantheons, lest they destroy the wormholes."

"You have a point."

"Among all the pantheons, the Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Hindu pantheons are the strongest. These four pantheons have super-clustered beings among them." Leoux's eyes were gleaming with light. "Attaining super-clustered level is difficult. Yet there are many super-clustered beings in these major pantheons. So I dare to say, their lairs are either extremely rich in energy, or near a white hole."

Ling Jiu nodded in agreement. While it was relatively easy to become a stellar being, becoming a galactic being was much more difficult, let alone becoming a super-clustered being.

As massive as the Milky Way was, there were few super-clustered beings born here.

So it seemed odd that there were so many super-clustered beings in these major pantheons.

So, how did they do that?

Ling Jiu became interested in their lairs.

"The nearest lair is the Egyptian pantheon. Let's go there first," Leoux said.

Ling Jiu had no objection.

He teleported to the sky over Egypt with Leoux's guidance, and with little effort, he found the wormhole leading to the lair of the Egyptian pantheon.

After passing through the wormhole, he came to the lair of the Egyptian pantheon. The Egyptian gods seemed to have an information system failure. They did not know what happened to the major pantheons, and no god was there to destroy the wormhole.

The entire planet was quiet.

This planet was more beautiful than that of the Mayan pantheon. The sun was high above the sky, beaming its warm light onto earth, with rivers and lakes scattered on the vast prairie. This was a beautiful and vibrant, habitable planet.

"Exactly as I guessed, Ling Jiu." Leoux's voice came. "the time flow in the lair of the Egyptian gods is indeed much faster, about ten times that of Earth, and the concentration of dark bio-energy is one thousand times that of Earth."

Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows, his eyes beaming with excitement. "You mean this planet is also near a white hole?"

"Absolutely." Leoux nodded rigorously.

"No wonder the Egyptian pantheon is much more powerful than other pantheons—they have a geographical advantage!"

After that, Ling Jiu released the Nine-winged Serpent and Nine-headed Serpent to guard the wormhole, preventing the Egyptian gods from destroying the wormhole. Meanwhile, Leoux was finding the locations of the Egyptian gods.

Leoux was highly efficient at the job. It did not take long before it found all the living beings on this planet.

"There are 1.5 billion living beings on this planet. Among them, there are one thousand stellar beings, which is ten times that of the Mayan pantheon. But they are relatively scattered all over the planet!"

It might seem like a problem with such a scattered population. But it was nothing to Ling Jiu. He could move hundreds of thousands of kilometers in a single teleport. The entire planet was like his house's backyard. So capturing the Egyptian gods was as easy as pie.

Ling Jiu followed Leoux's guidance and moved around, capturing the stellar beings on this planet.

Over 1,000 Egyptian gods went into the Leoux in just half an hour, after which Ling Jiu left the planet.

He came to the lair of the Norse pantheon. Just like the lair of the Egyptian pantheon, this one was also near a white hole.

The flow of time is 15 times that of Earth, the concentration of dark bio-energy was 2,500 times that of Earth, the number of stellar beings alone exceeded 3,000, and the strength of mortals was strong, with the weakest being Level-6 arcanists.

In terms of overall strength, they were much stronger than humans. But it was useless.

All stellar beings were captured.

Next, Ling Jiu had gone to the Persian, Japanese, Korean, Slavic, Mesopotamian, Aztec, Inca, and Hindu pantheons.

He had taken down dozens of pantheons, and captured nearly 30,000 stellar beings in just a matter of half a day.

"These many stellar beings can be turned into the gardeners for the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar."

Ling Jiu was very happy with the harvest this time. "Next stop, the lair of the Greek pantheon."

Ling Jiu teleported to Mount Olympus, and in the mountainside, he found a wormhole leading to the lair of the Greek pantheon.

His eyes were on stalks when he came to the planet Olympus.

There were dozens of figures floating in the sky. They were massive.

They exuded an incredibly powerful aura, as if a supermassive sun crushed down on the land and all the living things.

"This aura…" Ling Jiu's heart skipped a beat. "It is definitely super-clustered beings, who are much, much stronger than super-clustered beings like Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades."

"Who are these guys?"

"I didn't know that the Greek pantheon has such powerful beings."

"I think I know who they are, Ling Jiu."

"Who are they?"

"I searched the memories of Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades before this. Before their rise, there were two prior generations of Greek gods. The first generation was the Primordial gods, and the second was the Titans," Leoux said. "The Titans are all dead, but the Primordial gods are still alive. They have been imprisoned."

"Imprisoned?" Ling Jiu frowned. "These guys are apparently much more powerful than Zeus and the like. How did they end up in prison?"

"Zeus and his mates' memories tell us that as early as thousands of years ago, some enemies from outer sky came. The Primordial gods fought and were seriously injured. This weakened their strength, and the Titans took this opportunity to throw them into prisons." Leoux continued. "After that, the third-generation Olympian gods such as Zeus overthrew the Titans and further secured the prisons."

"That means, the Titans could imprison these guys only because they were severely injured?" Ling Jiu had put two and two together.

"Exactly." Leoux nodded.

"Check out their strength, Leoux." Ling Jiu was staring at the Primordial gods in the sky.

"You got it." Leoux started to do its job. Not long after, he came back with the finding. "These guys are powerful—incredibly powerful, Ling Jiu."

"What do you mean by incredibly powerful?" Ling Jiu cocked an eyebrow.

"The most powerful one has reached the limit of super-clustered beings. The others are super-clustered level-nine," Leoux said.

"Super-clustered level-nine? That's not just powerful—it's freaking powerful!" Ling Jiu frowned as a question came to mind. "Are these guys humans? How did they become so powerful if they were humans?"

"Nope. They are not humans." Leoux shook his head. "Their genetic material, DNA, completely differs from humans. I'm sure they are Cosmicians."

"Cosmicians?"

Ling Jiu squinted. "These guys whom the Greek gods called the Primordial gods are from the cosmos, just like Kryptonians?"

"Exactly."

"That will be interesting if they are Cosmicians. Just that I am curious where these guys come from."

"We will know when we search their souls." Leoux said. "How about that?"

"Do it." Ling Jiu had no objection. The identity of these Primordial gods had aroused his curiosity.

"OK."

Leoux maneuvered the Leoux and flew out from Ling Jiu's wrist towards a dozen towering giants in the sky.

"What is that?"

The enormous eyes of the towering giants had quickly spotted the Leoux.

"A spaceship!"

"Where does this spaceship come from?"

The giants spoke in a human language.

Judging from the giants' recognition of the spaceship alone, it was apparent that they were much more powerful than the deities on Earth.

"Take it down!"

A giant stretched out a huge hand to grab the Leoux.

Unfortunately, before his hand could get close, the Leoux shot out black ropes shot at the dozen giants.

"What are those things?"

The faces of those giants changed, and they quickly attacked the black ropes.

But their attempts were useless. These black ropes were apparently of a different level of weapon. The attacks of those giants did not work, and these black ropes caught them.

At last, those dozen giants vanishing into the Leoux were subdued. Leoux then started to read their memories.

There was a result after half an hour.

"Ling Jiu, exactly the same as I guessed. These Primordial gods are indeed Cosmicians. They are called the Caius Titans," Leoux said.

"The Caius Titans?" Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

"The Caius Titans were the rulers of the Andromeda galaxy. But five thousand years ago, another race slaughtered them," Leoux said. "These survivors fled to a nearby galaxy, which is the Milky Way, on a spaceship. They landed on Earth, becoming the first-generation gods of the Greek pantheon."

Ling Jiu nodded rigorously. But he still had a question in mind. "They could have dominated Earth easily with their level of strength. Why were they willing to make do with being the first-gen Greek gods?"

"That was because Earth at that time was strong," Leoux said. "I found something interesting in their memories. You will definitely be interested."

Ling Jiu raised an eyebrow.

"Earth was powerful five thousand years ago when there were countless powerful beings. Huaxia people, called the Yanhuang deities, dominated the East," Leoux said. "The Yanhuang deities were powerful with dozens of super-clustered beings born. They had dominated the East and established a powerful Yanhuang civilization. At that time, the ancient Egyptian deities occupied Africa, the ancient Babylonian deities occupied America, and the Hindu deities occupied India. It can be said that Earth at that time was much stronger than it is now. There were incredibly many stellar beings, and galactic beings were everywhere."

Ling Jiu could not have been more shocked. He had never known these things before. "Were there deities in Huaxia five thousand years ago?"

"You bet. They were freaking powerful, too," Leoux said. "Because the Yanhuang deities in the East were powerful, the Caius Titans who arrived on Earth later could only occupy the then barren land in the west and become the first-gen Greek gods."

"So where have they gone?" Ling Jiu asked quickly. Five years ago, gods were born all over the world except for Huaxia. Ling Jiu was honestly puzzled. He thought that the Yanhuang deities were a myth fabricated by people. But now it seemed that was not the case.

"Things started from the divine war five thousand years ago," Leoux said. "Five thousand years ago, the aliens that wiped out the Caius Titans followed the Caius Titans to Earth. A brutal war broke out between these aliens and the native deities on Earth. Countless gods died in that war. Of course, humans won the war at last. But it was also because of that war that humans got to know the vastness of the universe. So some gods left Earth and traveled into deep space. No one knows where they have gone. Yanhuang deities from Huaxia were among them."

"You mean that the Huaxian gods left?" Ling Jiu frowned.

"Yep. According to the memories of the dozen Caius Titans, the Huxian gods left Earth five thousand years ago and entered the vast universe."

"No wonder. That makes sense now. Otherwise, I can't explain why there were no deities rising in Huaxia while there were all over the world," Ling Jiu said.

"After that divine war, the Caius Titans were seriously injured. They and the descendants of the humans overthrew them, that is, overthrown by the second-generation Titans," Leoux said. "The even sadder thing was, the second-gen Titans were also overthrown by their descendants, the Olympian gods."

"What sad guys!" Ling Jiu shook his head. "Have you got any useful intel?"

"Yeah, but bad news for you," Leoux said. "After breaking out of the prison, the Caius Titans sent a distress signal out into deep space. They are trying to contact other Caius Titan remnants. The Caius Titans might have been extinct, but no one can guarantee if there are no other surviving Caius Titans. If there are surviving Caius Titans out there and they receive the distress signal, there is a high probability that they will come to Earth. By then, there will be another round of conflict."

Report chapter

Chapter 324: Keep the Direbeasts, Devouring Satellites

The memories of the Caius Titans had given Ling Jiu a better understanding of Earth 5,000 years ago.

Earth was much stronger 5,000 years ago than it was now. There were more super-clustered beings, things more exciting. It was truly an era of great competitiveness where the truly powerful existed.

That was no surprise since there were many wormholes on Earth, and many planets on the other side of the wormholes were near white holes.

This alone had brought an enormous amount of dark bio-energy to Earth. The dark bio-energy was a guarantee of the birth of powerful beings.

Later, Ling Jiu cleansed Olympus, captured all the stellar beings and left.

Ling Jiu, Emperor Might, Vulcan, and others were all getting busy the following days.

They were wiping out the gods and eliminating the traitors.

It was the most turbulent time on Earth with countless stellar beings killed.

There was news of major incidents every day.

The hundreds of thousands of Japanese who returned to the islands of Japan wanting to reconstruct their country were all burned to death by falling sky fire.

Pantheons in various European countries were destroyed, millions of priests slaughtered.

The consortia and merchants who defected to the pantheons were all killed, of which the Rothschild family was the most famous one.

There were people dying every day.

This cleansing operation lasted for a week before it gradually stopped.

Subsequently, the European countries started re-forming their governments and restoring public orders.

The major arcana combines started recruitment drives, ready to rebuild their branches Across Europe and Africa.

There was a busy scene everywhere.

On this day, Ling Jiu got a call from Emperor Might and returned to Pangu's headquarters.

Besides Emperor Might, Vulcan and government representatives from various countries were here, too.

The global summit was reconvening.

Before the meeting began, government representatives from various countries expressed their sincere gratitude to Ling Jiu, saying that without him, Earth would have been over.

After that, the meeting officially began.

Emperor Might was the first to speak. "The main reason for this summit is to discuss reconstruction of Earth after the gods and the Kryptonians have been eliminated."

"The first item on the list of reconstruction is to plant arcana trees. Any questions?" Ling Jiu nodded.

All government representatives agreed with him.

Everyone knew the function of arcana trees. This magical plant could produce Gene Arcana. It would increase the Gene Arcana level on Earth. Not only people and countries around the world would benefit from it but also the overall strength of Earth would increase.

People were wary of planting arcana trees due to the threats of the deities in the past. They were worried that the high concentration of Gene Arcana would spur the birth of the gods.

Now that all the deities had been wiped out, planting arcana trees was no longer a problem. So everyone supported Emperor Might's suggestion.

"We will not only plant arcana trees but also open the wormholes that lead to the lairs of the four pantheons," Ling Jiu added.

Everyone looked at Ling Jiu.

"The planets where the lairs of the Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Hindu gods are located are all near white holes. The concentration of dark bio-energy there is extremely high," Ling Jiu said. After clearing out the obstacles around the wormholes, dark bio-energy will flow to Earth from those four planets and increase the dark bio-energy concentration on Earth.

"That four planets are also near white holes?"

The eyes of many galactic beings brightened up. They had been staying on Whitehole-2 for 1,000 years, and so they knew the benefits of being near a white hole.

Ling Jiu gave a definitive yes when he said, "The time flow rate at the lair of the Egyptian gods is ten times faster and the bio-energy concentration is one thousand times higher than that on Earth. Meanwhile, at the lair of the Norse gods, the time flow is fifteen times faster and the dark bio-energy concentration is two thousand five hundred times higher than that on Earth. At the lair of the Greek gods, the time flow is sixteen times faster and the concentration of dark bio-energy is two thousand nine hundred times higher than that on Earth. At the lair of Hindu gods, the time flow is thirteen times faster and the concentration of dark bio-energy is two thousand two hundred times higher than that on Earth. It is for this reason that the strength of these four major pantheons is far higher than that of the other pantheons."

"I didn't know that."

"No wonder."

"I knew it. Why are these four pantheons so powerful? It is because their environments are super conducive to self-cultivation."

All the galactic beings suddenly put two and two together.

They further discussed several other issues, such as about the Kryptonian spaceship, the Caius Titans, the continual terraforming of Mars, and the direbeats, which were the main agenda on the table.

The direbeasts used to be the greatest threat to humanity. But since the birth of the gods, the most powerful direbeast gods had been brutally wiped out.

So direbeasts could no longer threaten the humans. The question now was what to do with the direbeasts.

Should they exterminate or keep them?

The government representatives of various countries wanted to kill all the direbeasts, retake the land occupied by the direbeasts, abandon the base city model, and restore the social order of 50 years ago.

But the major galactic beings had a different mind. They believed it was in the interest of humanity to keep the direbeasts.

The reason was humans would become complacent if there were no more direbeasts. People would become too comfortable and that was not good for the future of humanity.

Ling Jiu completely agreed with that. "We can't let ourselves become too comfortable. Otherwise, it will kill our fighting spirit. It is necessary to keep the direbeast for this reason."

He was undoubtedly the strongest man on Earth now. His words weighed a ton. So everyone agreed with him when he stated his stance.

Lantian Base City had been destroyed and become inhabitable. So after the summit, Ling Jiu returned to Chang'an Base City.

He bought another mansion there and called it his new home.

He spent the following few days with his family in Chang'an Base City. Doing nothing except for shopping, eating, and tittle-tattling with Li Kai. Life was simple. It was not until the sixth day that he got bored and contacted Leoux.

"Leoux, take me to the asteroid belt. I want to expand the Inner World of the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar."

"No hurry, Ling Jiu," Leoux said. "I have a better suggestion than going to the asteroid belt of the Solar system."

"What is it?" Ling Jiu cocked an eyebrow. He needed a massive number of asteroids—materials, to be exact—to expand the Inner World.

Somewhere better?

Some place with even more asteroids?

Somewhere with even more materials?

"I explored the galaxy where the four planets are and found a rather cool stellar system."

"Did you mean the four planets around the white hole?" Ling Jiu asked.

"Mhm, it is the stellar system where the lairs of the Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Hindu pantheons are located." Leoux nodded. "After digging deeper, I found that the star system where Olympus—the lair of the Greek pantheon—is, has an astonishingly large number of satellites. I think you can devour these satellites to expand the Inner World."

"Devour the satellites?"

Ling Jiu's eyes lit up. Satellites were larger. He was weak in the past and devouring satellites was beyond his dream.

But things are different now. He had the confidence and capability to devour satellites.

"Lead the way, Leoux."

Chapter 325: Crazy Expansion, Electric Life Forms

The home star system of Olympus was massive. Since it was far away from white holes, the star system was perfectly intact.

The sun of this star system was a yellow dwarf smaller than the Sun. But the number of planets that orbited this yellow dwarf was massive.

There were 21 planets in the star system, including seven rocky planets and 14 gas giants. These 21 planets had 3,800 moons combined.

Leoux was excited. "These moons are different in size, ranging from larger than Mars to just a few hundred kilometers in diameters. You may devour the smaller one if the bigger ones are too big to swallow. The efficiency is much higher than that of devouring asteroids."

Ling Jiu nodded rigorously. Given a choice, he could of course choose the moons.

Moons were larger than asteroids. A moon contained much more substances—gases, ice, dust, and minerals.

The efficiency he would get from devouring a moon was much higher than swallowing asteroids.

"You did a good job, Leoux."

"I am your assistant. My job is to serve you, and make self-cultivation more efficient." Leoux grinned. "Let's start with the moons of the planet closest to the yellow dwarf. That planet is too close to the yellow dwarf. So there are only two moons with diameters of one thousand eight hundred kilometers and two thousand one hundred kilometers, respectively. It shouldn't be a problem for you to devour moons of these sizes given your current level of strength."

The Leoux came near that planet, which had no atmosphere because of its proximity to its sun, just like Mercury.

The surface temperature of that planet was higher than that of Venus, and there was no sign of life detected.

Ling Jiu came to the first moon and performed a Void Devouring. The Void Behemoth appeared and swallowed the moon.

The void around the moon vanished together with the moon into the Inner World of the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar.

"Break it down!"

In the matter of a thought, the large moon broke apart, decomposing into fine particles before merging with the Floating Island.

The Floating Island expanded rapidly, going from 10 km to 50 km, 100 km, 500 km, and 1,000 km.

It had become 1,500 km in diameter, its land area reaching an astonishing size.

With a diameter of 1,500 km, the land area was 1.76 million km2.

A single moon had increased the Floating Island to 1.76 million km2, which was much more efficient than the expansion rate of Ling Jiu's own Floating Island.

Next, he devoured the second moon, which was 2,100 km in diameter, almost half of the diameter of the Moon. But it still stood no chance in front of Ling Jiu's Void Devouring. This moon vanished at once from space.

"Break it down!"

The moon fell apart and turned into the purest elements to fill the Floating Island, which expanded at a crazy rate.

Its diameter went from 1,600 km to 1800 and then 2,000 km.

When the expansion stopped, the Floating Island's diameter had reached a staggering 2,100 km. Despite that, it seemed that it did not expand as quickly as compared to devouring the first moon.

This was entirely logical.

As the Floating Island got larger and larger, it would need even more materials for expansion. Each extra kilometer of expansion would need a proportionately higher amount of materials.

Ling Jiu was not in a hurry, though. He came to the second planet.

"This planet is the second closest to the star and is not in the habitable zone. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is sky high, and a certain degree of the greenhouse effect has occurred. This must have caused the high surface temperature of the planet," Leoux said. "Life exists on this planet as a result. The high concentration of dark bio-energy has made the living being on this planet powerful. The weirdest thing is that they are bodily but energy beings."

"Energy beings?" Ling Jiu's eyebrows shot up. "Let's check them out. I have never seen energy being before."

"You got it."

They descended to the planet, punching through the dense atmosphere. There were violent storms in the atmosphere because of the thick clouds.

The wind was blowing at several hundreds of kilometers per hour. Coupled with the constant lightning, the atmosphere was as violent as that on Jupiter.

"Where are those energy beings, Leoux?" Ling Jiu asked in puzzlement.

"Those energy beings will attack you when you expose yourself to the atmosphere."

Ling Jiu cocked an eyebrow and then teleported to the atmosphere outside.

Splatt!

He instantly became a lightning rod, with hundreds of lightning bolts striking him.

Some lightning bolts were the size of a finger, some the size of a bucket. They struck out of the clouds and hit Ling Jiu directly. Ling Jiu's hair stood on end as if he was an actual Super Saiyan.

As powerful as the lightning was, it only produced a series of tingling sensations on Ling Jiu's body. It caused no harm to him.

He ignored the lightning and looked for the energy beings that Leoux mentioned.

It did not take long before the cloud up ahead split open. An enormous electric being that looked like a blue whale rushed out from the cloud.

"So this is an energy being?" Ling Jiu studied that thing curiously.

Roar!

The electric blue whale growled as he came in front of Ling Jiu, seemingly also studying him.

Ling Jiu reached out to touch the electric blue whale.

Splatt!

Currents on the electric blue whale traveled up his hand, creating a numb sensation on his body.

"That is an electric life form, Ling Jiu," Leoux said. "There are many such life forms on the surface of this planet, almost all of them living in the atmosphere. They differ completely from the life forms you have seen on other planets."

"They are indeed very different." Ling Jiu nodded in agreement. "Leoux, will the electric life forms die if they leave this planet?"

"Energy life forms such as the electric beings need a specific environment to survive. The environmental requirements of their habitat are strict," Leoux said. "Once they leave this place, and without the electric energy supply, they will quickly die, just like fish on Earth."

"Well, then there is no point catching them." Ling Jiu shook his head with disappointment.

"Nevertheless, the core of these energy beings may be useful for Thunder-type arcanists."

"I didn't know that."

Chapter 326: Crazy Expansion, One Family, One Tree

Ling Jiu did not stay long on the planet of lightning. He left not long after.

Electric life forms were magical, but that was just about them. They were not worth his while.

Even if the core of these electric beings was useful to the Thunder-type arcanists, he would not capture them.

He would leave these electric life forms to the young talents from Earth.

As humans continued to grow, and would inevitably occupy and develop the planets around these wormholes one day, these electric life forms would become the stepping stone for the rise of humans, eventually. So he thought he had better leave them to future generations.

"Ling Jiu, there are four moons orbiting this planet of electricity, each with diameters of one thousand hundred kilometers, one thousand nine hundred kilometers, two thousand two hundred kilometers, and two thousand nine hundred kilometers," Leoux said.

"Start devouring the smallest moon first!"

After devouring all four moons, the diameter of the Floating Island expanded to an astonishing 3,300 kilometers.

The expansion was going at a slower rate compared to when he devoured the two previous moons. This was entirely logical since the larger the Floating Island got, the slower the expansion rate would be.

Just like that, Ling Jiu was devouring moons as if locusts ate everything in their path.

Devour. Devour. Devour.

A week had passed without him realizing it.

He could not recall how many moons he had devoured, but he knew that the diameter of the Floating Island had reached an astonishing 8,000 kilometers.

He did some number crunching in his mind. That meant it was 50 million square kilometers, which was even more massive than his own Floating Island.

So he stopped devouring. It was time to plant super arcana trees.

He sent over 30,000 gods that he captured to the Floating Island and ordered them to plant super arcana trees.

A 50-million-square-kilometer Floating Island was large enough.

After that, Ling Jiu started to expand the Floating Island in his body.

His Floating Island was only 15 million square kilometers, which was far punier than that of the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar. It was high time to expand his own.

A new round of expansion started on his Floating Island in the following few days.

A week later, his Floating Island of the deity reached a diameter of 80,000 kilometers and an area of 50 million square kilometers, which was absolutely amazing.

But everything had its pros and cons. The Floating Island had expanded, but the concentration of dark bio-energy had decreased.

Before the expansion, the concentration of dark bio-energy was so high that it had condensed into fog, lakes, and rivers.

But with the crazy rate of expansion of the Floating Island, the dark bio-energy was diluted relative to the size of the Floating Island.

So the next thing to do was simple: plant super arcana trees.

As soon as the Floating Island was fully planted with super arcana trees, the dark bio-energy produced would reach an astonishing level.

Before long, the concentration of dark bio-energy would rise again.

"I can finally take a break."

After being busy for several days, Ling Jiu was exhausted—especially mentally. He was not in a hurry to return to Earth, but found a place to rest.

While he rested, Leoux mentioned something.

"The souls of the eleven super-clustered beings have been ground into soul fragments. When do you plan to absorb them?"

"I will do it now," Ling Jiu said after thinking for a second. He had not forgotten the eleven super-clustered beings and the 4,000 gods who he captured from Auguland.

The soul of super-clustered beings was the best nourishment for expanding the soul nebula. His current soul nebula's dark psionic energy was at ten soul stellar units only. It urgently needed expansion.

So he was not going to let go of the eleven super-clustered beings.

But he might spare the life of the 4,000 gods and turn them into his puppets to work in the arcana tree forest in his Inner World.

The Floating Islands had expanded so much that both he and the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar needed more gardeners to plant super arcana trees.

1,000 Kryptonians and 30,000 gods were barely enough.

"Leoux, turn the four thousand gods of Auguland into puppets, and send them to plant super arcana trees, too."

"You got it," Leoux responded. "I will send you the soul fragments now. get ready to receive them."

"OK." Ling Jiu nodded.

The next moment, a steady stream of soul fragments flowed out of the Leoux. Ling Jiu just took anything that came to him, devouring the soul fragments into his Inner World (Flame Astral Behemoth). He then refined them into the purest dark psionic energy before sending it to the sea of consciousness.

The eleven super-clustered beings such as the god of magic might not be as potent as the Evogod, but they were still super-clustered beings; they were not weaklings. They could be converted into a massive amount of dark psionic energy.

The Soul Nebula in the Sea of Consciousness started a new round of expansion.

11 soul stellar units.

12 soul stellar units.

13 soul stellar units.

When refining the soul fragments of the 11 super-clustered beings, Ling Jiu's soul nebula rose to 20 soul stellar units.

But he did not stop there, as he felt it was not enough; he wanted more.

"Leoux, break up the souls of the twelve kings of the gods, including Zeus and Poseidon, and the souls of twelve Caius Titans, including Uranus."

He only had so many super-clustered beings in hands. Since he wanted to devour them, he might as well devour them all to avoid trouble later.

Sometime later, when the souls of Zeus and others had been converted to dark psionic energy and poured into Ling Jiu's sea of consciousness, his soul nebula increased to an astonishing 40 soul stellar units.

Ling Jiu could enter the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution: forming the Soul Primordial Stars.

But Ling Jiu was not satisfied with this. He remembered Leoux had told him previously that once the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution entered the second stage, it would be difficult for the Soul Nebula to keep expanding in the future.

So he wanted to expand the Soul Nebula as much as possible while he still could to avoid regret in the future.

"I need more super-clustered beings," Ling Jiu sighed. "How long have we been here, Leoux?"

"Eighty five says. Considering the difference in time flow rate, it is about five days on Earth," said Leoux.

"Five days? It's time to go home."

An hour later, Ling Jiu had arrived back in Chang'an Base City. It surprised him to see the residents from his neighborhood were lining up at the neighborhood entrance, seemingly waiting for something. Ling Jiu was puzzled.

This was an upscale neighborhood where the rich and the powerful lived. Why were they lining up at the neighborhood entrance?

He asked one of them, who told him they were lining up for the arcana trees.

The government had launched a campaign, requiring every family to plant at least one arcana tree.

So everyone came to pick up the saplings.

"I didn't expect the government to be so quick." Ling Jiu was astonished.

The summit had just decided on the policy of large-scale arcana trees planting a few days ago. The government had started implementing it in just five days.

Now that was quick.

Chapter 327: Changmei of Mount Shu, the Demon-sealing Tower

Ling Jiu returned home and talked about the matter with his family.

Xiaotong smiled and said, "In fact, it's not only Chang'an, the whole country is currently distributing Arcana Tree saplings, and set off another unprecedented craze for planting Arcana Trees!"

"I know right! I had just went out just now, and all base cities are distributing Arcana Trees." Ling'er smiled and said.

"In fact, there was no need for any government propaganda, an Arcana Tree can produce Gene Arcana, and as long one plants an Arcana Tree at home, this could increate the concentration of Gene Arcana."

"Not only does it strengthens the body, it also has a certain chance to awaken one's Arcana, so this alone made it irresistible for any ordinary folks."

Ling Jiu nodded. He too had transformed into an Arcanist from an ordinary person, so he knew the wanting for ordinary person towards Arcanists, and now they knew that Arcana Trees could produce Gene Arcanas, who would refuse them?

Ling Jiu could imagine that once entire people begin to plant Arcana Trees, it would not take long for the entirety of China would be covered with Arcana Trees.

By that time, the concentration of Gene Arcana in China would increase rapidly, reaching an unprecedented level.

Under the nourishment of Gene Arcana, the physical fitness of the people of China would definitely be greatly improved, and the probability of Arcanists awakening will also be greatly increased.

This was a great fortune for the country!

Later on, Ling Jiu learned about the planting of Arcana Trees in other countries, and he was disappointed.

Compared to the speed in China, the other parts of the world were much slower, and many were still in the preparatory and dissemination phase, and had not formally planted Arcana Trees yet.

It was normal when he thought about it. The executive power of the Chinese government had always been high, and so was the mobilization ability of the people, and this point was simply incomparable to any other countries. Thus it was completely reasonable for China to take the lead of the planting of Arcana Trees in the world.

"Dinner's ready!"

Mother's voice rang out as Bai Ya, Xiaotong and Ling'er went to the kitchen to help serve dinner on the table as the family got ready to eat.

Ling Jiu suddenly raised his eyebrows, as he looked out of the door and said. "Since you're already here, why hide? Come out!"

"What's wrong, Ling Jiu?"

Hearing this out-of-no-where words, Bai Ya and his family looked over as well.

"Someone's here, and is no ordinary person." Ling Jiu smiled and opened the door with a wave of his hand. "Since you're here, come in!"

"Sure enough, I could not hide from your eyes."

A hearty voice rang out as a white-robed, white-haired elder appeared out of thin air, and walked in.

Seeing the old man, Bai Ya and the others were all shocked. They were all galactic beings, and they did not even notice the appearance of this elder. It was incredible!

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell upon the elder. The old man's dress was completely different from a modern person, and his white robes looked like an ancient robe, especially his two white eyebrows were botth hanging down to his chest.

"Who are you?"

Ling Jiu looked at the white-robed elder with a look of suspicion appeared in his eyes.

He was sure he had never seen that white-robed leder before, but the aura radiating from the elder was definitely that of a supergalactic being. Although the other party had deliberately hid it, he was indeed a supergalactic lifeform.

Ling Jiu was very confused. Who was this white-robed elder? Why was there such a supergalactic lifeform on Earth?

Was he an alien?

Or a native life on Earth?

If he was an alien, where did he come from?

If he was a native of Earth, then it would even more interesting. There was beings on Earth that had cultivated to a supergalactic lifeform?

"Greetings, I am Changmei of Mount Shu."

Under Ling Jiu's puzzled gaze, the elder with long eyebrows introduced himself, and that sentence alone shocked Ling Jiu. "You're… Changmei of Mount Shu?"

He of course did not know who Changmei of Mount Shu was, but he had heard of him, not in this world, but from the movies and TV novels in his previous life.

In the novels and movies of his past life, Changmei of Mount Shu was the originator of the Mount Shu Sect, and Mount Shu Sect was one of the cultivation sects in the myths and legends…

So here came the question:

How would a sect and person that only existed in the legends appeared in reality?

However, thinking of the various gods and the information obtained from the Chaos Titan, the myths and legends were not necessarily false, and those from the legends may very well exist.

Thinking of it this way, Ling Jiu calmed down a little. "I wonder what is the purpose of your visit today?"

"The reason for me to come here today, was to seek your help."

Changmei went kneeling on all fours as he said slowly.

"Let's sit down and talk."

Ling Jiu pointed towards the sofa, motioning for Changmei to sit. Changmei thanked him, and sat down as he said with a smile.

"Your battle at Mount Olympus had deeply impressed me, and I did not expect to have such a proud scion of heavens like you to appear in the Divine Lands of Huaxia, the ancestors be blessed!"

As he said that, Changmei sighed. "Our fellow Huaxia immortals had went far into the void and had been missing since. This had led to the birth of the gods, and the disaster befalling the divine land, such a misfortune indeed for it!"

"Although I had the wish to eliminate those demons, but my technique is inferor, so I can only watch!"

Changmei sighed bitterly as he shook his head, feeling extremely ashamed.

"You've mentioned that the Huaxia Immortals had went into the void, what did you mean by that?" Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked knowingly.

"You may not know!"

Changmei explained. "There are gods in the Divine Land of Huaxia, like many other countries in the world, but they call themselves immortals."

"Unfortunately, 5,000 years ago, my fellow Huaxia immortals left the divine land and entered the void. Since then, there were no news from them! Otherwise, how would those puny barbaric gods dare to run rampant upon the divine land!"

"Oh I see!"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "I thought that China had no gods, but I had never thought that they had left! I wonder what's the matter for your visit though?"

Changmei did not answer, but asked instead. "I wonder how much do you know about my Mount Shu Sect?"

Ling Jiu shook his head and said truthfully. "My understanding of the Mount Shu Sect is limited to one of the sects in the legends, and I don't even know if Mount Shu is real or not!"

"My Mount Shu is located in the lofty mountains of Sichuan, and is a first-rate land of the immortals in the world. Since the founding of my sect, countless disciples have cultivated the immortal skills diligently, entering the realm to take down demons, and trap them inside the Demon-sealing Tower, protecting the realm from the machinations of the demons, and is beloved by the people!"

Changmei was not surprised and sighed as he shook his head. "Ever since the Huaxia immortals left, many of my seniors and masters had also entered the void, leaving only me and my disciples to guard the sect, and maintain the orthodoxy."

"However, over the years, the immortal Qi became thinner and thinner and the sect disciples passed away as the days go by and the sect gradually went downhill. Now I'm the only one left in Mount Shu!"

"Oh I see!"

Ling Jiu sighed.

Changmei continued. "I came to look for you today, was mainly for this Demon-sealing Tower!"

"Demon-sealing Tower?"

Ling Jiu frowned.

"Yes, the Demon-sealing Tower!"

Chapter 328: Galactic Spacecraft, Ten Thousand Greater Demons

The Mount Shu Sect had been established 5,000 years ago. For thousands of years, its disciples had always taken the task of eliminating demons as a duty as they protected the common people and safeguarded the righteous path of the world.

Over the last 5,000 years, countless greater demons had been imprisoned inside the Demon-Sealing Tower. After so long, no one knew how many greater demons were imprisoned in the tower at this point!

Originally, the Demon-Sealing Tower had been calm and fine. However, a hundred years ago, the tower started to experience violent shakes, showing signs of collapse.

As the current Grand Master of Mount Shu Sect, Changmei was responsible for guarding the Demon-Sealing Tower, and he knew exactly what it meant should the tower collapse.

He wanted to stop it, but he was powerless. The Demon-Sealing Tower was the Mount Shu Sect's immortal artifact, and he only had the authority to trap and imprison demons. Aside from that, he knew nothing of the tower.

Moreover, locked inside the tower were numerous greater demons, and Changmei dared not act rashly!

In desperation, he came to Ling Jiu, hoping that Ling Jiu could help him suppress the Demon-Sealing Tower, and reinforce the tower's seal.

As for destroying the greater demons inside it, Changmei had never even considered it because it was impossible!

"My friend, the matter of the Demon-Sealing Tower is a matter of life and death for all. You have to help with this! If the tower collapses, the demons within will break free, and unimaginable catastrophe will then befall mankind!" Changmei said seriously.

Ling Jiu agreed without much hesitation. He was worried about not being able to find a supergalactic lifeform to practice his Eight Methods of Black Hole Evolution. Now that he had heard about the Demon-Sealing Tower holding uncountable powerful demons, he was naturally willing to go. They were the best nourishment for the Eight Methods of Black Hole Evolution!

"Changmei, come and join us for a meal. Once we're done, we'll head to your sect grounds to have a look at this tower!" Ling Jiu said with a smile.

"Thank you!"

After lunch, Ling Jiu and Changmei left for Mount Shu. Bai Ya, Ling'er, and Xiaotong were clamoring to go, so they followed as well.

Mount Shu was indeed worthy of its name as an immortal mountain. Not only was it beautiful and picturesque, but it also had an extremely developed ecology. Lush verdant trees and plants abounded.

Throughout the mountains and forests, wild beasts roared, and pandas bounced about as elk scampered, giving off an aura of primordial nature.

Between the lofty mountains, a square-shaped peak that resembled a table came into view. From a distance, Mount Shu really looked like a table.

It was surrounded by cliffs that were very regular in shape as if they had been carved out by a sword.

"This is indeed an auspicious ground!"

Looking at the beautiful scenery of Mount Shu, Ling Jiu could not help but admire it. He had seen countless planets and countless beautiful sceneries. Even when placed alongside the many planets, this place would still rank among the top.

Changmei proudly said, "The Mount Shu Sect has been the leader of the divine land's 72 immortal sects for 5,000 years, and it has been sitting alone at the peak, so it is naturally an unparalleled auspicious ground!"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. Besides the beautiful scenery, there were also Direbeasts!

There were Class 6 and Class 7 Direbeasts everywhere, as well as Class 8 and Class 9 ones. To ordinary people, this place was undoubtedly fatal.

However, to supergalactic beings like Changmei, the Direbeasts around Mount Shu were equivalent to pets in captivity.

The group arrived on Mount Shu, and a huge complex of buildings came into view.

It was thousands of yards from front to back, with palaces, pavilions, monasteries, corridors, courtyards, and cornices…

However, the entire building complex was obviously ancient. Many of the courtyards were covered in weeds, the buildings were dilapidated, and the walls were covered in weeds as well as wormwood, showing the vestiges of time. Only a few courtyards toward the front were very well-maintained and clean.

There were telegraph poles and network cables in the courtyard, and it seemed like Changmei knew how to surf the web.

Also, there was a young Daoist boy about eleven or twelve years old in the front yard. He was dressed in simple Daoist robes and was chopping wood.

The boy looked very handsome at his age, and he was really strong. He swung an ax that was one head taller than him as he chopped wood.

His ax came slashing down and a thick log was instantly split into two. With just a few hits, the log was reduced into firewood with the thickness of an arm.

"This boy has good aptitude. Already a Level 9 Arcanist at such a young age. His future will be very bright." Ling Jiu could not help but praise.

"He was an abandoned infant I picked up at the foot of the mountain ten years ago. Taking pity of him, I took him in and raised him. I then realized that he had good aptitude, and so took him under my wing, and I plan to pass on my mantle to him, so he may keep the flames of Mount Shu burning."

Changmei said with a smile, as he looked at the young Daoist boy with doting eyes.

"You have sharp eyes."

Ling Jiu smiled and gave a compliment.

After that, the group contined and soon arrived at the hind mountains of Mount Shu, and they saw a skyscraping tower from afar.

The huge tower stood on top of the mountain like a lighthouse, looking distant and cold. It was about 200 meters tall, and occupied the land close to the size of two basketball courts.

The tower was precipitated with the vestiges of time, its surface covered with moss and lichen, showing a gray and black hue, as it had clearly went through the vicissitudes of time, and experienced countless of years of being exposed to the elements.

"My friend, is this the Demon-sealing Tower?" Ling Jiu asked curiously.

"That's right, this is the Demon-sealing Tower, an unparalleled immortal artifact of the Mount Shu Sect!" Changmei nodded slightly.

"Ling Jiu, have you noticed it?"

Leoux's voice suddenly rang out.

"Notice what?" Ling Jiu asked.

"The Demon-sealing Tower before us is obviously made out of high-grade alloys. If I'm not wrong, this tower is probably a very high-tech object, or rather, a spaceship!" Leoux went straight to the point.

"A spaceship?"

Ling Jiu was taken aback. "The Demon-sealing Tower is something from 5,000 years ago. How can it be a spaceship?"

In Ling Jiu's view, since the tower was something from 5,000 years ago, it should have been created by the elders of Mount Shu back then.

A spaceship?

That's… improbable?

"This is a spaceship alright!"

Leoux quickly scanned it, and after a short while, the results had came out:

"The metal used to cast this tower is a Fourth-Grade Cosmic Alloy, and is obviously from a Grand Unified Civilization, definitely not something from Earth."

"So it is a spaceship!"

Ling Jiu had seen his fair share of spaceships. He then walked to the Demon-sealing Tower and gently wiped off the moss on the surface of the tower with his hands, revealing the black tower.

The tower's body was smooth and unsullied, and was extremely tough. A chill passed through his fingers, and caused Ling Jiu to be surprised. He had used some strength when he pressed, yet it was not damaged. The tougness of the tower was clearly beyond the scope of a supergalactic lifeform.

Changmei pointed to the tower and sighed. "The Demon-sealing Tower had been standing here since 5,000 years ago, and had stood tall since."

"However, in recent years, the tower had been shaking for no reason, and there were some cracks appearing on the surface, leaking out demonic energies from time to time. I'm worried that this tower may not hold for much longer."

Ling Jiu looked carefully and found that there were cracks and fissures all over the surface of the tower. Although they were blocked by grim and moss, they were indeed cracks.

If one were to sense carefully, there was a constant overflowing of terrifying aura from the fissures, causing fear to everyone.

"Leoux, is this really a ship of a Grand Unified civilization? Why are there cracks?" Ling Jiu asked doubt.

The civilization of the universe can be divided into planetary civilization, stellar civilization, galactic civilization, supergalactic civilization, Grand unified civilization, and Perfect Unified Civilization.

Once reaching the status of a Grand Unification Civilization, all alloys manufactured are considered Fourth-Grade Cosmic Alloys, which were almost indestructible, and even the passage of time could not cause them to decay.

So, why were there cracks?

"A spaceship of a Grand Unified civilization would not be so easily damaged of course, even when exposed to the elements for a hundred thousand years, it will not changed, much less only five thousand years here?"

Leoux smiled and said. "There's only one possibility to destroy a spaceship of this type, that is it had suffered a fierce attack."

"And the attack had exceeded the limit a fourth-grade cosmic alloy could withstand, so cracks had appeared."

Ling Jiu nodded. "There's only this possibility. That is to say, it's the greater demons inside the tower attacking it?"

"It must be so!"

Leoux said. "Elder Changmei had been guarding Mount Shu all this while. With him at guard, the attack cannot come from outside, and only from the inside."

"In other words, the lifeforms held inside the tower is constantly attacking it, trying to break free."

"Leoux, what should we do next?" Ling Jiu asked.

"What else, fight your way in."

Leoux said without hesitation. "There are about ten thousand Direbeasts locked inside this spacecraft. All of them supergalactic lifeforms. These are all excellent nourishment. Their bodies can be converted into life energies, and their souls into dark psionic energies."

"If you were to devour their souls, your Soul Nebula will reach an unprecedented level, and you can continue to cultivate the second level of the Eight Methods of Black Hole Evolution."

Ling Jiu nodded repeatedly, and then said to Changmei, Bai Ya and the rest. "Wait for me here, I'll go in to have a look."

"Have a look?"

Changmei was taken aback and immediately stopped him. "Please, no!"

"Countless great demons are held inside the tower, and many of them are ancient beings of devastation from 5,000 years ago! They are extremely powerful! If you were to enter rashly, your life might be in danger!"

Bai Ya, Ling'er and Xiaotong too had originally wanted to go in to have a look. They were confident in Ling Jiu's strength, but after hearing Changmei's words, all three now hesitated.

"Ling Jiu, let's not go in, it's too dangerous inside!"

"Yeah, brother…"

"No matter!"

Ling Jiu waved his hand and showed a confident look. "I've already probed the place, this tower imprisons over ten thousand supergalactic lifeforms."

"Although they are powerful, they pose no threat to me!"

"More than ten thousand supergalactic lifeforms!"

The expressions of Bai Ya and the others changed drastically. "How could there be so many of them?"

Although Changmei lived in Mount Shu all year round in seclusion, it did not mean he was ignorant about the outside world. He too surfed the Internet and watched live broadcasts, and even have a username called God's Perspective.

So, Changmei too knows about what stellar, galactic and supergalactic lifeforms meant.

A look of horror appeared on Changmei's face. "For the tower to hold so many powerful demons, it's incredible!"

"However, according to the Records of Demon Sealing left by my master, there were definitely more than ten thousand great demons inside the tower."

"More than ten thousand? But I clearly detected that only ten thousand supergalactic lifeforms were left inside the tower."

Ling Jiu said truthfully, he believed that Leoux would not be wrong with its scans, nor would there be mistakes.

"It should be them killing one another causing their numbers to drop sharply."

Leoux explained. "This spaceship is completely isolated from the outside world. There's no energy supply inside, and it's just a huge cage."

"The Direbeast sealed inside will definitely kill one another, and cannibalize each other. All of the weaker ones had been killed, so only ten thousand supergalactic lifeforms were left."

"Makes sense."

Chapter 329: Ancient Direbeast, Nine-Winged Skydragon

The cosmic civilizations were divided into the following, from low to high:

Planetary civilization.

Stellar civilization.

Galactic civilization

Supergalactic civilization.

Grand Unified civilization…

And even higher levels of civilization.

The question was, what was a Grand Unified civilization?

The Grand Unified Civilization stemmed from the physics' Grand Unified Theory. The Grand Unified Theory is also known as the law of all things.

Since there were only four interaction forces between microscopic particles—gravitation, electromagnetic, strong interaction forces, and weak interaction forces—all phenomena in the universe could be explained by these four forces.

Meanwhile, the Grand Unified Theory was the connection and unity between these four forces. It explained their interaction and how they were linked to each other.

It was a pity that finding the connection between these four forces was just too difficult, and that alone had stumped countless intelligent civilizations.

So, it was difficult to find a Grand Unified Civilization. A civilization that managed to discover the theory and prove it could become a Grand Unified Civilization.

A Grand Unified Civilization was very strong. Be it in material or energy conversion, they had reached the apex of it. For example, the most representative weapon of a Grand Unification Civilization was the graviton bomb!

A graviton bomb could release the same gravity as a neutron star in an instant. Everything within its blast radius, whose speed is lower than the speed of light, would instantly be compressed into hydrogen atoms.

That was the graviton bomb!

The power of a graviton bomb was so devastating that even Sun Wukong's ability to fly tens of thousands of miles in a single somersault meant nothing.

A graviton bomb could instantly turn the Great Saint into a blob of hydrogen in an instant without a chance to escape at all. That was the power and terror of the Grand Unified Civilization.

Therefore, Ling Jiu was very curious about this spaceship that came from a Grand Unified Civilization, which civilization was it from?

Why did it come to Earth?

Why did it become the Demon-Sealing Tower?

With these questions in mind, Ling Jiu entered the spacecraft without much hesitation.

What met him was total darkness, but a series of menacing aura was like a broiler in the night, exuding a terrifying aura as they wantonly pressed against Ling Jiu.

Even with his training, Ling Jiu still felt fear and trembled. "How many supergalactic lifeforms are there in particular here?"

"Not many, just 10,086 of them."

Leoux sniggered and said, "There are nine Apex supergalactic lifeforms, eighty-one Level 9 supergalactic lifeforms, and the rest are all Level 7 or 8 ones."

"Heh, there's really no weak ones at all. Even if there was, all of them would have already been eaten long ago."

"Indeed!"

Ling Jiu took a deep breath. "Leoux, what should we do next?"

"Let's look from the command core of this spaceship first," Leoux said.

"I want to know which civilization this spaceship came from."

"Yeah."

Ling Jiu nodded. "Let's hurry."

"Already on it! But the alien civilization that built this ship is quite accomplished in the realm of space, so the interior of the spaceship is quite big, and it'll take time."

"Roar!!!"

At that moment, a low roar rang out, and Ling Jiu immediately turned around. He then saw two crimson beams of light piercing through the darkness and lighting up the area.

With Ling Jiu's eyesight, he could naturally tell what the light beam was. They were clearly two eyeballs.

The owner of the eyes was a small Direbeast about ten feet in length. It looked like a snake but had black scales all over it, and there were ten pairs of black wings on its back, and on its menacing draconic face was a pair of antler horns and four claws beneath its abdomen.

"Roar!!!"

The Direbeast had obviously spotted Ling Jiu by chance, and it was puzzled. How come there was a person in the tower?

However, when it reacted, it let out an earth-shaking roar that almost pierced Ling Jiu's eardrums. The next moment, it flapped its wings as it charged over.

"Sh*t! We've been discovered!"

Ling Jiu cursed to himself as he immediately switched to his Golden Saiyan Ape avatar and raised his fist to meet the Direbeast.

Krak!!

Ling Jiu's fist and the Direbeast's claws collided, and following a thunderclap, Ling Jiu was sent flying.

He only managed to stop after flying for more than ten miles, and when he took a glance at the Direbeast, it was fine.

Then, it charged over again.

"Bloody hell! There's no end to this!"

Ling Jiu was furious as his momentum shot up like a rocket.

If someone were to scan Ling Jiu's combat power at this moment with a scanner, they will find his combat power soaring wildly, shattering all indicators.

"Again!"

Ling Jiu bellowed and charged over himself.

Baaaam!!

The two collided again, and even though the dimension inside the spaceship was far sturdier than the outside world, it was slowly coming apart as the two sides clashed.

Both sides were sent flying again following their clash. Ling Jiu flew hundreds of meters away, while the Direbeasts only dozens of meters back.

The result surprised the Direbeast, and it did not continue its attack. Instead, it stared at Ling Jiu coldly with its blood-colored eyes.

"Manling, who are you? I've never seen you inside the Demon-Sealing Tower!"

"I've just entered it, of course you haven't seen me before," Ling Jiu said faintly.

"Just entered it?"

The Direbeast frowned. "It has been a long time since someone entered the tower, and you are the first one in the last thousands of years. You are strong! However, you are a human, not a beast, why were you sent here? This defies reason."

"You're a Direbeast, why do you speak so much drivel? Do you want to fight or not?" Ling Jiu asked unhappily.

"No, no fighting."

The Direbeast shook its head. "The tower is isolated from the outside world and cannot receive the nourishment of immortal qi. You are strong, and I cannot kill you."

"A senseless battle will only consume my own vitality, so no, I'm not fighting you."

"Uh…"

Ling Jiu was stunned. In his mind, Direbeasts were all brutal creatures. If they could fight with you they would not waste words on you. It seemed like the one here was somewhat different?

However, after thinking about it, Ling Jiu found that it was understandable. The Demon-Sealing Tower was indeed isolated from the outside world.

It was bereft of any influx of Gene Arcana or Dark Bio-energy. Even the oxygen in the air was pitifully low. With no food supply, they really did not have any nourishment.

Fighting there was simply consuming one's life force!

Most importantly, after being imprisoned there for 5,000 years, even the most brutal and tyrannical of Direbeasts would have mellowed out.

Thinking of it this way, Ling Jiu felt a little sympathy for these guys.

"Big guy, what's your name?" Ling Jiu asked, looking at the Direbeast.

"The Nine-Winged Skydragon."

The Direbeast got up after it nonchalantly replied while it lay on the ground lazily. Just like Jabba the Hut[1]t lazed on his seat, it exuded a decadent and depressed temperament. "Human, how is the world outside doing?"

"The world outside?"

Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows. "The world outside has changed a lot!"

"Tell me," the Nine-Winged Skydragon said slothfully.

"Five thousand years since, huh."

Ling Jiu shook his head and smiled. "The Yanhuang pantheon and the masters of Mount Shu that had imprisoned you all here 5,000 years ago have long since disappeared…"

The next moment, Ling Jiu casually talked about the situation on Earth, and when it heard about the previous advent of the gods, the Nine-Winged Skydragon was extremely disdainful.

"A group of savage gods dare to run wild on the divine land. They want to die huh!"

"Sadly I am being locked up in here, or else I would have swallowed them whole in a bite!"

"Yeah, when there are no tigers in the mountains, the monkeys reign as king." Ling Jiu laughed.

He had no illusions about the strength of the Nine-Winged Skydragon, as an apex supergalactic lifeform. It indeed had the right to look down upon the gods.

"Then what happened to them?" it asked.

"Then…"

Chapter 330: Ancient Times, War of Man and Beast

"Then… I returned to Earth, and killed all of the gods." Ling Jiu answered truthfully.

"In other words, you are the strongest person in the divine land now?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon stared at Ling Jiu, saying. "Since you're the strongest, why enter the tower? Who could imprison you here?"

"Haven't I told you earlier?"

Ling Jiu was somewhat helplessly. "I heard that the Demon-sealing Tower is pretty fun, and there are a lot of talents that could speak, so I came in to play, and look around."

"Came in to play?"

The Nine-headed Skydragon looked at him like it was looking at an idiot. "The Demon-sealing Tower is a very magical artifact. Not only can it isolate the immortal Qi, it is completely isolated from the world outside!"

"Most important, it only allows entry and no exit. Human, you're done for. You can forget about leaving after coming in."

"No matter!"

Ling Jiu waved his hand indifferently. "I have comprehended the Laws of Space, and can leave her with just a single thought. The Demon-sealing Tower cannot hold me here."

"What did you just say?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon shuddered, two brilliant glints appeared in its eyes." You've comprehended the Law of Space, and you can leave the tower at any time?"

"Yes."

Ling Jiu smiled and said. "However, I'm not in a hurry to leave for the time being. There are many talented ones here, and they speak well, so I really like it here."

"When will you leave?"

The dragon asked again.

"We'll get to that once I had my fun!"

Ling Jiu shrugged. "Alright, I want to go have a look elsewhere. You can continue your rest."

"Manling, you may not leave!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon darted and blocked Ling Jiu's path as its bell-like eyes stared at him. "You can leave if you want to, but you must take me along!"

"What are you talking about?"

Ling Jiu was dumbfounded.

"Manling, take me out of this place, how about that?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon's eyes was alight. "I've been imprisoned here for more than 5,800 years. I've stayed here long enough that I want to leave this place even in my dreams!"

"You want to leave?"

Ling Jiu laughed.

"Yeah!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon nodded its massive head.

"Why should I take you away from here?"

Ling Jiu smiled and asked. "I've heard that all of the monsters locked in the tower are unparalleled Direbeasts that had caused disasters in ancient times."

"Your crimes are many, and exhaustive, if I were to release all of you, won't it cause endless calamities once again?"

"Nonsense!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon was furious. "What bringers of calamities? That's a crime that you humans had imposed upon us! Despicable human, shameless!"

"What did you just say?"

Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

"Hmph, during ancient times, we monsters are the owners of the divine land, and only later on with the rise of humans that they started fighting with us for this land."

The Nine-winged Skydragon said. "Later on, all kinds of amazing talents continued to emerge from you humans, and you lot finally defeated us."

"Us monsters fled or died, and those unlucky sods like us were locked inside the Demon-sealing Tower and imprisoned until now."

"That is to say, the reason you lot were locked in there was due to racial conflicts, and not because of unforgivable crimes?" Ling Jiu said dumbfoundedly.

"Of course!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon snorted. "We failed, and lost convincingly, but we will never allow you humans to sully our name by adding crimes upon it!"

"At least you're someone who is bold enough to assume responsibilities for your actions."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "However, I still cannot let you out."

"Why?"

The dragon asked.

"It's because you're a monster and I'm a human."

Ling Jiu said. "There are irreconcilable differences between our kind since ancient times. My ancestors had kept you here, so how can I violate their will and release you?"

"If they find out, they'll be scolding me for being unfilial."

"Manling, what do you want?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon was little frustrated.

"I've heard that there were some monsters that submitted to humans during the ancient days?" Ling Jiu rolled his eyes and said slowly.

"Those were all a bunch of traitors!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon gritted its teeth and hissed. "During the ancient times, during the war of man and beast, some soft bones saw the humans were getting stronger and they betrayed us and submitted to the humans, and fought against kin!"

"I will never forgive these traitors, they were even more despicable than humans!"

"Yeah, they were traitors."

Ling Jiu said softly. "But the facts proved that their choice was the correct one."

"By following humans, not only did they survive, they even gained a very high status. So, can you stay that they made the wrong choice?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon was speechless.

"Be it the rise of the humans, or the war between man and monsters, or the betrayal of some monsters, or the recent rise of the Direbeasts, all are actually just fighting for a space for survival, it's all for survival."

Ling Jiu said indifferently. "It's all for survival, so no matter what one does, it is understandable. What's there to blame?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon did not know how to refuse, and it took a while before a few words came out of its mouth. "Manling, what are you trying to say?"

"After talking so much, I just want to tell you one thing. I cannot let you out for no reason, unless… you submit to me!"

Ling Jiu shrugged and looked at the furious Nine-winged Skydragon. "Of course, you can also reject me, but you'll be staying in this god-forsaken place then."

"By the way, let me tell you, the immortal Qi outside is reviving, and I also found many other auspicious grounds like Penglai Island."

"The immortal Qi there is very potent, and the flow of time is also very fast there. A day on the divine land is several years there."

Of course, there was no auspicious grounds. The ones Ling Jiu spoke of refers to the planets near the White Hole, and these places can indeed be called auspicious grounds.

"The reason I could cultivate so quickly is because I stayed in a magical immortal mountain where the time flow is 99 times faster than the divine land!"

"Well, that's all that needed to be said, you decide for yourself then."

As the said Ling Jiu turned around and left. From his conversation with the Nine-winged Skydragon, he learnt:

The ancient times were not like those described in Xianxia novels where dragons and phoenixes ran rampant, monsters and demons struggled for hegemony, where Saints ruled the world…

In the true ancient times, there were only the Direbeast that rampaged across the land, and the human ancestors who had rose from small beginnings to eventually defeated the Direbeasts.

And the Nine-winged Skydragon was a Direbeast that was able to fight against the human ancestors in the ancient times, and was undoubtedly a very powerful fighter.

Think about it, these guys had been locked side the Demon-sealing Tower for over 5,000 years. For them to still been in a supergalactic Level 9, apex level after not absorb Gene Arcana for so long, with declining strength, how powerful were they during their peak?

To kill such an existence was undoubtedly a pity, their value can be best utilised if they were kept alive!

Chapter 331: Ancient Times, the Kui Ox Demon Emperor

Looking at Ling Jiu leaving so casually, the Nine-winged Skydragon's eyes changed as it fell into a huge inner struggle.

It was frustrated.

But it could not kill Ling Jiu.

It was conflicted.

But it did not want to submit to Ling Jiu.

It was depressed.

But it did not want to be trapped here.

So what now?

Submission?

"No! I'm one of the Ten Great Direbeasts, a peerless demonlord who could command the winds and rain in times of yore, how can I submit to a man?"

If it refused, was it suppose to then continue to stay in this dark prison, where it will be locked up for eternity?

At the thought of that, the Nine-winged Skydragon felt a pang of horror. It was a peerless Direbeast that fought everything, and it should belong to the sky and the world outside, not this god-forsaken Demon-sealing Tower!

"Manling, stop!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon was totally shattered, as it roared angrily. "You win! I submit! I'm willing to submit!"

"Heh, you finally softened huh."

Ling Jiu smiled and turned around. He was not afraid the latter would not submit. The Nine-headed SNake and the Nine-winged Snake too had been sealed underground for 5,000 years, and was almost at the breaking point.

So, as long as Ling Jiu promised to set them free, he would easily win their submission as they were close to be driven insane.

Submission?

What was submission when compared to freedom?

"Manling, what do you want to do?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon looked at Ling Jiu with a complicated gaze.

"Simple!"

Ling Jiu wanted the Nine-winged Skydragon to not resist, and then used Absolute Servitude on it, to officially take it under his wing.

To take in such a powerful fighter, Ling Jiu was of course very happy, as he smiled at said. "Nine-winged Skydragon, how strong were you during your prime?"

"A Demonlord!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon rumbled.

"Demonlord?"

Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows. What level is a Demonlord exactly?

Ling Jiu knew that the Nine-winged Skydragon had been locked up here for 5,000 years, and had long been out of touch with the outside world, so the realm it talked about was only used during ancient times.

The question now was, what level does the Demonlord belong to?

"In ancient times, how did the Direbeasts divide your strength level, and what level did you belong to?" Ling Jiu asked again.

"In ancient times, man and beast fought."

The Nine-winged Skydragon said. "Men called themselves immortals, while us beasts called ourselves demons!"

"From low to high, they are divided into ordinary demons, greater demons, demon kings, demon saints and demonlords, and correspondingly, the humans are, mortals, earth immortal, heavenly immortal, golden immortal, boundless golden immortal."

"When I was in my prime I was a Demon Emperor, and was one of the Ten Great Demon Emperors back then, commanding countless of demons, I was also called one of the Ten Great Ancient Direbeasts by you humans."

As it said that, a hint of pride appeared faintly in the skydragon's eyes, but soon it became despondent again.

"Sadly, after being locked inside the tower for 5,000 years, without the immortal Qi to nourish me, my strength had fallen from the Demonlord realm, and is now a Nine-star Demon Saint."

"A Nine-star Demon Saint?"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. The Nine-winged Skydragon was now a Level 9 Supergalactic lifeform, and belonged to the Nine-star Demon Saint realm, that meant that the Demon Saint was analogous to a supergalactic lifeform?

That was to say:

A stellar lifeform = Greater Demon

Stellar Lifeform = Demon King

Supergalactic Lifeform = Demon Saint

And a Demon Emperor… wouldn't that be a Perfect Lifeform?

A Perfect Lifeform!

This was a very terrifying level, and according to Leoux, a galaxy like the Milky Way can only give birth to supergalactic lifeforms, for a Perfect Lifeform to be created… it was just too difficult!

Generally, it would take a hundred galaxies for a possibility of a Perfect Lifeform to appear.

And of course, that was only just a possibility.

"How many Demonlord-level demons were there during the ancient times?"

Ling Jiu was a little curious.

"For us demons, we had a total of ten Demonlords."

The Nine-winged Skydragon was forthright, "Humans only had five Boundless Golden Immortals, but then more and more appeared, and during the final battle 5,000 years ago, there were 36 of them! The difference in strength on both sides were overwhelming, and we demons lost."

"36!"

Ling Jiu gasped.

36 Perfect Lifeforms, this was strong till the point of terrifying, no wonder the Yanhuang pantheon left after defeating the aliens. They were already invincible on Earth, and could no longer find any challenges there.

Being too strong is lonely.

No wonder Uranus and the other Kaos Titants daerd not touch the east after they arrived on Earth, and could only go to the then barren Northern Europe to settle down. The east was far too powerful and they could not compete at all.

However, with so many Perfect Lifeforms, that also made Ling Jiu curious about Earth 5,000 years ago.

How potent was the Gene Arcana on Earth at that time that so many terrifying existences would be born?

Also, why did the Gene Arcana on Earth disappear so quickly in just 5,000 years, so much so that it had completely disappeared by the 21st century?

What happened to Earth in the past 5,000 years?

"Nine-winged Skydragon, walk around with me first, and we'll leave once I'm done."

Ling Jiu said. "After we leave, I'll send you to a place to recover your strength first. I believe you will like it there."

"Alright!"

The skydragon nodded and agreed. If it had a choice, it of course wanted to leave the tower right away, but since Ling Jiu said so, what else could it say?

"Take me to look for the next Demon Emperor."

Ling Jiu said.

"The space inside the tower is quite signficant, and all of the great demons locked inside here have their own territory."

The Nine-winged Skydragon explained. "The Demon Emperor closest me is that old bull, the Kui Ox. That one is a stubborn one, subduing it will be… difficult."

"No matter!"

Ling Jiu smiled faintly "It'll be good if I can subdue it, if not, then I'll just kill it and cook it. I've not eaten beef for a long time now."

When the Nine-winged Skydragon heard this, it could not help but to shudder. "Master, if I did not submit earlier, would you have killed me too?"

"Of course, I've not eaten dragon meat in a long time too."

Ling Jiu laughed and said. "I won't hide it from you. I will not let a single one of the Direbeasts in the Demon-sealing Tower go."

The Nine-winged Skydragon smiled bitterly, and at the same time felt very grateful, grateful that it had made the correct choice, otherwise…

Under the lead of the Nine-winged Skydragon, Ling Jiu quickly found the Kui Ox Demon Emperor.

The old bull that the skydragon mentioned was only six feet tall, and 12 feet long, with only a single hoof beneath its belly, and its entire body was blue.

When Ling Jiu and the skydragon arrived, the old ox was fast asleep, snorring like thunder, causing the area around to rumble.

"It can sleep like this not knowing that it'll soon become a snack?" Ling Jiu mumbled. "Go, wake it up!"

"Yes, master!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon responded and then used its long tail and brutally whipped the Kui Ox. The Kui Ox immediately perked up and immedately stopped snoring.

MOOO—!!

The Kui Ox that was rudely awakened was seemingly pissed as it let out a thundering moo, and like a primordial thunder, causing the dimension around to shatter.

"How dare you disturb my beauty sleep! You want to die?"

The Kui Ox stood up and stood with a single hoof on the ground as thunder and lightning crackled all over his body as it glared at the skydragon and shouted at Ling Jiu. "So it's you slithering snake, you want to fight?"

"I've no time to mess around with you today!"

The Nine-winged Skydragon rolled its eyes, and hissed. "Old Kui Ox, I ask you, do you want to go out?"

"What did you say?"

The Kui Ox was stunned.

"Have you been alone for too long that your ears are failing or what?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon repeated once more helplessly. "Do you want to go out?"

"Go out? Who doesn't want to? Which of the great demons being trapped here doesn't want to go out? But you think the Demon-sealing Tower is a place that you can leave at will?"

The Old Kui Ox screamed. "If I could get out, I would have done it long ago!"

"Sigh, now that I think of it, I'm suddenly envious of those traitors. Although they now serve someone else, but they are at least living happily and freely, unlike how we are now."

Chapter 332: Kui Ox Surrenders, Beating the Demonic Dragon

Envying the traitors?

When the Nine-winged Skydragon heard what Old Kui Ox said, he could not help but glance at Ling Jiu with a chuckle.

"Old Kui Ox, I remember you were a person with a spine and would never surrender to humans. Why do you envy the traitors today?"

"That was because humans didn't treat us oxen kindly back then," Old Kui Ox sneered. "Humans used us as draft animals, treating us worse than pigs and dogs. We Oxen of course would not surrender."

"But things are different now." Old Kui Ox sighed. "I couldn't care less about others anymore after being held up in the Demon-sealing Tower for 5,000 years. I just want to get out of this damn place now, even if it would shorten my lifespan."

"I feel you." The Nine-winged Skydragon nodded. "Old Ox, there is an opportunity in front of you now. You will get to leave if you can seize this opportunity."

"What do you mean?" Old Kui Ox frowned.

"Let me introduce." The Nine-winged Skydragon went straight to the point and introduced Ling Jiu to him. "As long as you surrender to the master, he can take you out."

"Can he take us out?" Old Kui Ox stared at Ling Jiu suspiciously. "Dead Snake, are you sure he can take us out? Have you surrendered to this human?"

"Absolutely." As embarrassing as it was, the Nine-winged Skydragon admitted it with a nod.

It trusted that Old Kui Ox would understand and not laugh at it.

"Alas, the all-powerful Nine-winged Skydragon, peerless demon emperor who ruled the Serpents, Pythons, and Scaly dragons back then, has surrendered to humans."

Old Kui Ox let out a soft sigh. "Life is unforgiving. The days of confinement in the Demon-sealing Tower have consumed all dignity, self-esteem, and ambition."

The Nine-wings Skydragon could say nothing to refute it.

"Show me evidence and then I will surrender." Old Kui Ox stopped running against the Nine-winged Skydragon and turned to look at Ling Jiu. "If you can show me that you can get out of here at will, I will surrender immediately."

"That's easy-peasy." Ling Jiu let out a smile. "You two have not been breathing any fresh air for a long time, I suppose? Let me take you somewhere if you don't mind."

As soon as his voice trailed off, Ling Jiu brought the Nine-winged Skydragon and Old Kui Ox into his Floating Island with the wave of his hand.

Swish!

The three of them appeared above the Floating Island. Tens of millions of square kilometers, seemingly endless land mass appeared in front of their eyes.

In the center of this land was a vast forest.

Clouds and mists engulfed the forest where rivers flowed. It was a land of the immortal.

"This is…"

The Nine-winged Skydragon and Old Kui Ox were wide-eyed.

"I have fully comprehended the Law of Dimensions. So I created a dimension in my body. This is my Inner World." Ling Jiu sounded a little dubious. "I then planted some plants that produce immortal air in the Inner World. That is this forest. These immortal trees continuously produce immortal air for me. You can feel it here. Isn't it rich?"

He was talking about the super arcana trees, of course. By calling them immortal trees, the Nine-winged Skydragon and Old Kui Ox could understand it more easily.

"Immortal air?"

The Nine-winged Skydragon and Old Kui O's hearts skipped a beat. They knew that Ling Jiu was telling the truth as they could feel for themselves the rich concentration of the immortal air.

"What a rich immortal air!"

"As good as the Penglai Islands, eh?"

"More than that. The immortal air on the Penglai Islands is no way near this level."

It astonished the Nine-winged Skydragon and Old Kui Ox. They greedily breathed in the rich dark bio-energy, intoxicated by it.

Ling Jiu couldn't help a chuckle when he saw their expressions. He knew they were hooked. "You two have seen it for yourselves. But the immortal trees have not covered the entire island yet. By the time they covered the entire continent, the level of immortal air would astonish you."

"Absolutely."

The Nine-winged Skydragon and Old Kui ox nodded rigorously. The immortal tree forest only formed one- ten thousandth of the continent's land mass.

How high the concentration level of immortal air would become when the entire island was planted with these immortal trees, when less than one-tenth of a thousandth of the land could already produce such a level of immortal air?

"Will you surrender now, Hui Ox?" Ling Jiu asked.

"I will. I surrender." Old Kui Ox had no objection anymore.

It knew that with such a level of attainment in the Law of Dimensions, this human in front of him could leave the Demon-sealing Tower at will.

"Good."

After convincing Old Kui Ox, Ling Jiu was in a good mood. Led by the two demon emperors, he came to the third demon emperor: the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon.

The Ice Horned Demonic Dragon was covered in a thick layer of ice armor that was indestructible. It had a horn on its head.

Its body was white, as if it was made of ice.

Unlike the Nine-winged Skydragon and Old Kui Ox, the Ice Armor Horned Demonic Dragon was excited about leaving the Demon-sealing Tower. But it went ape when it learned that it had to surrender.

"Lowly human! How dare you ask me to surrender! You have a death wish! I will capture you and compel you to bring me out of here!"

While its roar was still echoing in the void, the Ice Armor Horned Demonic Dragon had started its attack.

The Nine-winged Skydragon and Old Kui Ox wanted to stop it, but Ling Jiu beckoned them not to intervene.

"Step back."

Ling Jiu would not take this lying down, of course. He had also launched his counterattack.

Pow!

The two sides clashed.

The Ice Armor Horned Demonic Dragon was brutal and got the upper hand.

But as time went on, Ling Jiu was getting better and matching up to his opponent. Besides, he showed no sign of slowing down at all. He gradually gained the upper hand and started to put the Ice Armor Horned demonic Dragon on the defensive.

This started to frighten the Ice Armor Horned Demonic Dragon. Ling Jiu could not match it in terms of brute force strength, but he seemed to have limitless energy, his physical strength rising after each clash.

There seemed to be no limit to his strength.

"Eat this!"

Ling Jiu roared, his hair standing on end. A dazzling golden light burst out of his body, exuding a powerful aura like a Super Saiyan.

Bomp!

Ling Jiu hit the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon's jaw with a devastating punch after teleporting in front of it.

Crack!

The ice crystal on the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon's chin instantly shattered, leaving a bloody hole behind. The next moment, Ling Jiu appeared above the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon's head.

Crack!

Another blow left a hole in the head of the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon's head

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Ling Jiu moved like a ghost, appearing around the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon, attacking it with his missile-like fist.

A series of bombardments had left countless holes in the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon's body, blood oozing out of its wounds profusely.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

The Ice Horned Demonic Dragon roared angrily. But apparently, that did not help.

It could still hold its own when Ling Jiu did not perform Blink Arcana. But when he did, it did not even stand a chance.

Its defeat was apparent.

While Ling Jiu was very much alive, the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon suffered injuries all over its body, completely exhausted.

"You have one last chance, Ice Horned Demonic Dragon: surrender or die." Ling Jiu said coldly. This was really the last chance.

"I surrender."

Chapter 333: Chief Marshal Chiyou, His 81 Brothers

The Ice Horned Demonic Dragon finally surrendered.

It did not matter if he was a headstrong demon emperor in ancient times; it had lost its ambition after being locked up in the Demon-sealing Tower for 5,000 years.

It just wanted to go out now.

With the Nine-winged Skydragon, Old Kui Ox, the Ice Horned Demonic Dragon leading the way, Ling Jiu pushed all the way through, subjugating the Sky-splitting Rhino, the Coral Unicorn, the Flame Golden Lion, and the Eight-clawed Fire Dragon, the Thunderbolt Bat Dragon, the Blue-winged Sea Dragon, and the Sea-splitting Dragon Whale.

All the top ten direbeasts had surrendered and become his super-clustered Level-9 running dogs. His strength had increased tremendously.

Ling Jiu was happy. But he also had a question in his head. Leoux told him that there were 10,086 super-clustered beings imprisoned in the Demon-sealing Tower.

Among them, there were nine apex and 81 Level-9 super-clustered beings.

The question was, who were these nine apex super-clustered beings, and the other 72 Level-9 super-clustered beings other than the top ten ancient direbeasts?

When Ling Jiu asked this question, the Nine-winged Skydragon and other ten ancient direbeasts quickly gave their answers.

"My Lord, those 81 super-clustered beings are not direbeasts, but humans," the Nine-winged Skydragon replied in a low voice. "They are Chiyou's eighty-one brothers."

"What did you say?" Ling Jiu was stunned. "Chiyou's eighty-one brothers? Are you kidding me?"

Everyone in Huaxia knew the famous Chief Marshal Chiyou.

He was the tribal leader of the Nine Li Tribal Alliance in ancient times, and of the Ox Totem and Bird Totem clans. He had 81 brothers, all of whom were extraordinary and brave.

Chiyou and the Yan Emperor used to be in the same tribe. But he left the Yan Emperor to carve his own path because there were conflicts between them. Later, he fought with the Yan Emperor and defeated him.

So the Yan Emperor Yan and the Yellow Emperor joined forces, launching a fierce battle with Chiyou's army in Zhuolu, and finally killed Chiyou.

This was the famous Battle of Zhuolu.

After the Battle of Zhuolu, the Yellow Emperor unified Huaxia. It was the start of the glorious history of the Huaxia civilization.

The Yan Emperor and the Yellow Emperor were recognized as the victors, while Chiyou, the loser, in the annals of history,

Everyone in Huaxia knew who Chiyou was. But people knew Chiyou had 81 brothers and had no clue who they were.

It struck Ling Jiu dumb when he learned that Chiyou's 81 brothers were imprisoned in the Demon-sealing Tower. He had no words.

"There are only eighty-one humans—Chiyou's brothers—in the Demon-sealing Tower. All others are direbeasts," Old Kui Ox said. "These eight-one humans are brave, good at fighting, and extremely strong. They are the strongest beings in the Demon-sealing Tower. Besides, they often hunt and kill direbeasts for food. We, the demonic beasts, formed an alliance to fight them. That's why we know them well."

"That makes sense now," Ling Jiu said. "Let's check them out."

With the ten direbeasts leading the way, Ling Jiu came to one of Chiyou's brothers.

A gray-haired elder, he made a hut out of animal skins and bones, and made a fence with beast ribs to fence up the hut.

The elder came out of the hut when Ling Jiu and the others came to the hut.

He had to support himself on a crutch that he made from the rib of a direbeast when he walked. Dressed in animal skin like a primitive man in ancient times, he trembled as he looked at Ling Jiu and his entourage.

"An old man…"

Ling Jiu could be hard-eyed in dealing with direbeasts. But he did not really know how to deal with an elder from the ancient times. Should he be more respectful or indifferent?

"Are you from the outside, young man?"

Probably noticing Ling Jiu's awkwardness, the elder spoke first.

His voice was a little hoarse, his speech was intermittent, almost like spelling out each word. It sounded as if people in the ancient times spoke this way, or this man had not been speaking for too long.

"That's right, Mister." Ling Jiu nodded.

"What year and month is it now, young man?" the elder asked again.

"It's been five thousand years since ancient times!"

"I didn't know what five hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye—five thousand years of vicissitudes."

The gray-haired elder let out a soft sigh and coughed violently. "Young man, why did you come to the Demon-sealing Tower?"

"Nothing. Just strolling around," Ling Jiu said. "I heard people say that there are countless ancient great demons held up here in the Demon-sealing Tower. So I was curious and came in to take a look."

"Came in to take a look…" The gray-haired elder squinted and then looked at the ten direbeasts behind Ling Jiu with a gleam of light flashing in his muddy eyes. "Young man, you can freely enter and exit this Demon-sealing Tower?"

"That's right."

"No wonder." The gray-haired elder's eyes brightened up, his shriveling body slightly trembling. "Young man, please wait a moment?"

"Sure." Ling Jiu nodded although he did not know what the elder was going to do.

"Thank you."

The gray-haired elder thanked him, and then lightly tapped the rib crutch in his hand.

The ground made a muffled bang instantly, as if he had hit a drumhead. The elder kept striking the ground for nine times.

Ling Jiu squinted, watching on saying nothing. With Leoux and the Leoux here, he had nothing to fear.

Not long after the nine muffled bangs, figures started to flicker in the sky as dozens of people appeared out of thin air and descended to the earth.

They were all dressed in animal skins, much like savages.

Ling Jiu felt a suppressive aura exuding from them, much like that of wild beasts. Apparently, these people were at least Level-9 super-clustered beings.

"Brother Duanxiu, it's been a long time."

"Why did you suddenly summon us today, brother Duanxiu?"

"How are you, Brother Duanxiu?"

They greeted the gray-haired elder with respect as soon as they emerged.

They then looked at Ling Jiu and the ten direbeasts with a hint of hostility in their eyes.

"What are these beasts doing here?"

"Are they attacking Brother Duanxiu?"

The ten direbeasts were enraged at hearing what they said. They became hostile and looked back at those people with no fear in their eyes.

"Damn humans! Mind your language!" The hot-tempered Sky-splitting Rhino snapped. "You all were just a group of junior humans who were not fit to carry shoes for us in the ancient times!"

"The strength of you all had only increased after entering the Demon-sealing Tower and killing many direbeasts. You all would not have talked to us like this otherwise."

"Exactly. A bunch of damn humans!"

"A bunch of beasts. You all have a death wish?"

Chiyou's 80 brothers sneered, anger rising as they were about to make their moves. Just then, the gray-haired elder Duanxiu gently tapped on the crutch. "Step back!"

"Aye, Brother Duanxiu!"

The eighty people shot a glare at the ten direbeasts as they fought back their anger.

"I summoned you all for something else; not because they are attacking me." The gray-haired elder looked at Ling Jiu. "The person whom the Xuanyuan clan prophesied might have appeared."

"What did you say?"

"That person in the prophecy of the Xuanyuan clan?"

"For real?"

"Who is he, Brother Duanxiu? Where is that person?"

Report chapter

Chapter 334: The Yellow Emperor's Prophecy, Setting Free

Chiyou's 80 brothers were so excited.

How could they not know Xuanyuan's prophecy back then, when they had been kept here for 5,000 years? They had been waiting for it for 5,000 years.

"Who is he, Brother Duanxiu?"

The 80 brothers stared at the gray-haired elder with fiery eyes.

"It's him." The gray-haired elder pointed at Ling Jiu.

Chiyou's 80 brothers looked at Ling Jiu in unison, excitement, curiosity, doubts, and suspicion filling their eyes.

"He is the person whom Xuanyuan prophesied? Really? It doesn't look like it!"

Ling Jiu also felt uncomfortable when so many apex super-clustered beings stared at him. Confused, he looked at the gray-haired elder.

"Mister, what are you all talking about? The more I listen, the more confused I am."

"Young man," the gray-haired elder said slowly. "Back then, we followed our leader Chiyou to battle Xuanyuan and Shennong. Our leader was killed, and we were imprisoned by Xuanyuan in the Demon-sealing Tower."

"When Xuanyuan imprisoned us, he once said that he was from Huaxia, too, and that he would not kill but imprison us."

"Xuanyuan once said that someone would come to free us in 5,000 years. I think the person Xuanyuan said is you."

"Me?" Ling Jiu was stunned. Of course, he knew who the gray-haired elder referred to. Xuanyuan was the famous Huaxian ancestor, the Yellow Emperor.

But he did not expect that the Yellow Emperor would have said that someone would free them after 5,000 years when he imprisoned Chiyou's 81 brothers.

Was it a coincidence?

Or was the Yellow Emperor's prophecy true?

"How trustworthy do you think this is?" Ling Jiu asked Leoux.

"Prophecies are not as mysterious as you think," Leoux said. "Many living beings in the universe have the ability to predict the future. It is not difficult to understand why the Yellow Emperor could predict something 5,000 into the future."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "Should I let them out? What do you think?"

"You decide this for yourself," Leoux said.

"OK." Ling Jiu looked at the gray-haired elder and the others. "Do you all want to leave the Demon-sealing Tower?"

"Of course."

"We have been dreaming about it! We've long wanted to leave this damned Demon-sealing Tower."

"Please let us out, young man."

Except for the gray-haired elder, everyone nodded, their face looking sincere. They were eager and excited.

"I can free you all." Ling Jiu hesitated for a moment, then slowly said, "But I really want to know, what will you all do when you return to the outside world?"

"What will we do?"

"Needless to say, the first thing I will do is to return to Nine Li, then kill a few Clear Water Golden Crystal Beasts and feast for three days and three nights."

"I will return to Lu State. It is my hometown. I have dreamed of returning there many times. Sadly, I can only stay in the Demon-sealing Tower."

"I will take a good shower and run freely in the forest."

"I…"

The 80 brothers were talking about what they would do after regaining their freedom. It sounded naïve to Ling Jiu's ears, but he could totally understand.

"I can set you all free." Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "But I have to tell you some things beforehand."

"The outside world has changed drastically in the past five thousand years. It is no longer the world you think. It is a whole new world."

"A whole new world!"

"The new system!"

"A new world order!"

"Everything is new!"

"You all are very strong. Once you go out, you will be the most powerful beings and have a tremendous impact on the outside world. So, I need you all to promise me something."

"Promise?"

The 80 brothers looked at each other.

"Do nothing that destroys the world when you all get out," Ling Jiu said. "Can you do that?"

"That's easy."

"No problem."

"I promise you all."

The 80 brothers and the gray-haired elder nodded unison.

"I heard that the Nine Li people are men of their word. I hope you all will mean what you say," Ling Jiu said. "Of course, it doesn't matter if you all break your promise. I can recapture you all just as I can set you all free."

"Don't worry! We Nine Li people are men of our words. You have our word."

"That's good." Ling Jiu nodded slightly. A vortex suddenly appeared in the void with the wave of his hand. The vortex spun and then formed into a dimensional passage.

They could see the outside world, where there were mountains, plants and flowers, cliffs, and waterfalls, through the dimensional passage.

Everyone, including the gray-haired elder, was excited.

"Young man, my name is Cangang. Please remember my name. I will return the favor if you need me in the future."

"That's right. We will remember what you have done for us. I will surely return the favor in the future even if I have to die for it."

"I am Diexin."

"I am Zhelu."

I am Suoge."

I am Lianku."

"I am Haishe."

"I am…"

The 80 brothers made some strange gestures of gratitude at Ling Jiu, and then left the Demon-sealing Tower through the dimensional passage, leaving only the gray-haired elder here.

"Thank you very much, young man."

The gray-haired elder bowed. "You saved my brothers. You will be a friend of Nine Li State."

"I still have to say this, Mister," Ling Jiu said, "It is a whole new world outside. I hope you can restrain your brothers and don't create troubles in the new world."

"You have my word, young man." The gray-haired elder hemmed. "WE were defeated and our leader was killed five thousand years ago. The five-thousand-year imprisonment in the Demon-sealing Tower has eroded our ambitions. We just want to return to our hometown now and enjoy our freedom for a few days."

"That's good," Ling Jiu nodded. "Take care."

"Thank you." The gray-haired elder bowed in respect again, and then slowly walked into the dimensional passage and vanished from the Demon-sealing Tower.

The dimensional passage disappeared, and everything returned to normal again. As the ten direbeasts looked at each other, Old Kui Ox spoke. "Lord, did you just let them go like this?"

"Is there any problem?" Ling Jiu cocked an eyebrow and smiled faintly.

"No—no problem." Old Kui Ox nodded his head rigorously. He thought it was unfair. Everyone was an ancient being and imprisoned together in the Demon-sealing Tower for 5,000 years.

Why did they have to surrender while Chiyou's 81 brothers could leave just like that?

That was unfair.

"You had better be." Ling Jiu shook his head slightly. Since Chiyou was one of the three ancestors of the Huaxian people, so, too, Chiyou's brothers. Could he demand his ancestors to surrender?

He could not bring himself to do that.

"Let's go to check out the other direbeasts."

Report chapter

Chapter 335: Pangu Civilization, the Andromeda Galaxy

Next, with the top ten Direbeasts leading the way, Ling Jiu continued to raid the Demon-sealing Tower. Those who were willing to surrender would live, and those who did not would be killed.

Might was right.

Most of the Direbeasts surrendered. But a few of them were implacable.

Ling Jiu certainly would not be nice to those who refuse to surrender. He imprisoned them all in the Leoux.

Three days later, he had cleared out the Demon-sealing Tower, with 8,888 out of 10,000 super-clustered beings surrendering, and over 1,000 direbeasts imprisoned.

Ling Jiu was not very satisfied. He hoped those direbeasts could be stronger, so that he could devour and use them to practice his the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution. It was a shame.

But that was just as well. With these 8,888 direbeasts, he could probably roam around the entire galaxy unchallenged.

Of course, something else had also aroused his interest, which was the spaceship Demon-sealing Tower.

Leoux had cracked the firewall of the Demon-sealing Tower, and hacked its control system, giving him access to all the data of the Demon-sealing Tower. Ling Jiu was shocked to learn the information.

"The Demon-sealing Tower comes from a cosmic civilization called the Pangu Civilization."

Leoux's first words struck Ling Jiu dumb. "The experience of the Pangu civilization is similar to that of us, the Emissian civilization. Their civilization was destroyed, their people wiped out. The only thing that escaped was an intelligent spaceship, which arrived on Earth. That spaceship is the Demon-sealing Tower. At last, the Demon-sealing Tower trained the humans. It was precisely because of their help that your ancestors, the Huaxia people, could produce so many powerful beings in a such short time, and defeat the direbeasts on Earth, establishing the Yanhuang people as a powerful race."

Ling Jiu did not know what to say anymore.

The Demon-sealing Tower came from the Pangu civilization?

Why the Pangu Civilization?

In other words, the creation god Pangu in the mythology was just a spaceship? This was ridiculous, a story not even online novels dared to cook up.

"And then?" Ling Jiu asked.

"And then the rest is history," Leoux said. "After the Huaxian ancestors defeated the direbeasts, they fought another battle with the alien civilization that pursued the Caius Titans, and won. It was also after that battle that the Huaxian ancestors became completely invincible on Earth. So they left Earth and entered the universe."

"Where do you think they have gone, Leoux?" Ling Jiu asked.

"Most probably they have gone into deep space," Leoux said. "The purpose of the Demon-sealing Tower training them is actually the same as me assisting you, which is all for revenge. So the Demon-sealing Tower would take them to the region with abundant resources and prosperous cosmic civilization to improve their strength quicker."

"Okay!" Ling Jiu nodded. "Any other information?"

"There is, of course." Leoux nodded. "I found a document in the Demon-sealing Tower, which shows all the wormholes on Earth. The Demon-sealing Tower and the Yanhuang race spent a hundred years to discover them all. This document contains the information of all the wormholes on Earth."

"Information about all the wormholes on Earth?" Ling Jiu's eyes lit up.

"Of course. But it is no way an exhaustive list," Leoux said. "There are many wormholes on the Earth, and it is difficult to find them all. Nevertheless, those wormholes that the Demon-sealing Tower found are pretty comprehensive."

"Is there a wormhole like Whitehole-2?" Ling Jiu asked.

No doubt, the vicinity of a white hole was a self-cultivation paradise. Up to now, five wormholes had been found connecting to a white hole, respectively.

There were Whitehole-2 and the wormholes corresponding to the lairs of the Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Hindu deities.

Such wormholes were a source of great wealth—so much so that the ordinary wormholes were not good enough for Ling Jiu anymore.

"There is." Leoux nodded. "Apart from the five wormholes we found, three more wormholes, the other side of which, are near a white hole. What is more interesting is, there are four, six, and eight habitable planets near these three white holes, respectively."

"So many habitable planets?" Ling Jiu's heart skipped a beat. "That will be a source of incredible wealth."

"Indeed," Leoux said. "Good for you humans. If humans could make good use of these habitable planets, human civilization would quickly become a top-tier civilization of the universe. Honestly, I'm really curious; who has left so many wormholes on Earth? This is obviously the work of some advanced civilization, which is at least a supercluster civilization, as it is something that ordinary civilizations could do. It's almost like a highway connecting Earth to many parts of the universe. Most people really can't do that."

"Absolutely." Ling Jiu was also curious, too. Every civilization built quick passages such as 'highways' and 'high-speed rail lines' within their territory for convenience, cutting traveling time.

Different levels of civilization had different 'highway' and 'high-speed rail lines.'

The quick passages of planetary civilization referred to infrastructure such as expressways, and high-speed rail lines.

On the other hand, stellar civilizations were mainly active within a star system. So gravitational highways were often built in the star system.

The so-called gravitational highway referred to the use of the gravitational force of planets to form a gravitational corridor, just like a ship sailing by ocean currents.

At the next level, galactic and super-clustered civilizations had developed beyond the gravitational highway because of their more advanced level of civilization.

At an even higher level of civilization, the highways were no longer of gravitational corridors but of wormholes.

They created wormholes in their territories and connected all the galaxies and planets in the territories to achieve rapid travel.

It was apparent that as the level of civilization continued to increase, the 'highways' were also upgraded. Wormholes were obviously the highest-spec highway. Human civilization, with his level of technology, could not create wormholes yet.

The question was, what was the origin of these wormholes that were connected to Earth? Who created them? Was it some prehistoric civilization?

No one knew the answer.

"Leoux, couldn't you find out who created those wormholes with your ability?" Ling Jiu asked.

"I can't." Leoux's answer was negative. "The civilization that created those wormholes on Earth is highly advanced, even surpassing us, the Emissian civilization. Besides, there are no clues that can lead to the creator of these wormholes."

"Fine." Ling Jiu nodded. "Any other important information?"

"There is another piece of information that I believe you will be interested in. It is about the alien civilization that wiped out the Caius Titans."

"Tell me." Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

"The Caius Titans were originally the rulers of the Andromeda Galaxy. But an alien race in the Andromeda Galaxy came out of nowhere and obliterated the Caius Titans," Leoux said. "That alien race is the Lernaean Hydra."

Report chapter

Chapter 336: An Outrageous Race, Artificial Life Form

The Andromeda Galaxy is the closest large galaxy to the Milky Way, with a diameter of approximately 220,000 light-years, almost twice the size of the Milky Way.

The Andromeda Galaxy is also the largest galaxy in the local galaxy group.

When mentioning the local galaxy group, it is necessary to talk about the different classifications of cosmic bodies: planetary system, star system, galaxy, and galaxy group.

Among them, the galaxy group, as the name suggests, is a group of galaxies, just like the QQ group and WeChat group.

Just that the group members of a galaxy group are not QQ friends, but galaxies like the Milky Way.

The local group is the galaxy group that includes the Milky Way, where earth and the Sun are. It is similar to the meaning of a country, a province, and a school.

The local here can also mean 'us' as in our country, our province, our school, and our galaxy group.

There are galaxies in this local group, such as the Andromeda Galaxy, the Milky Way, the Triangulum Galaxy, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, the Draco Dwarf, Leo I and II—together there are 50 galaxies of different sizes.

Among them, the Andromeda Galaxy is the biggest, with a vast diameter of 220,000 light-years, while the Milky Way is second with a diameter of 100,000 light-years.

The ruler of the Andromeda Galaxy was used to the Caius Titans. But unfortunately, there was a change 5,000 years ago.

A new race emerging out of nowhere annihilated the Caius Titans to become the new dominant power of the Andromeda Galaxy.

This race was the Lernaean Hydra.

"The Lernaean Hydra is a terrific species," Leoux said. "They have not developed technology and are purely a self-cultivation civilization. Their strength lies in their terrific self-cultivation speed and incredible fertility."

"How is that?" Ling Jiu was puzzled.

"The Lernaean Hydra was not strong and basically an ordinary Level-one planetary being, much like humans, when it was first born," Leoux said. "Eight-tenth of the Lernaean Hydras became stellar beings within a hundred years. Two-tenth of them became galactic beings within a thousand years. And three-hundredth of them became super-clustered within ten thousand years. This is an extremely incredible number. It means that eight-tenth of the Lernaean Hydras can become stellar beings, two-tenth of them become galactic beings, and three-hundredth of them become super-clustered beings."

"You may not think it is a big deal. But if you replace the Lernaean Hydras with humans and think carefully, you will realize that this is a scary figure."

If these were to happen to humans?

Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

80% of humans became stellar beings, 20% were galactic beings, and 3% were super-clustered beings.

Ling Jiu could not help but gasp in astonishment. Such a comparison made him realize how terrific the Lernaean Hydras were.

There were 4 billion humans on Earth. 80%, 20%, and 3% translated into 3.2 billion, 800 million, and 120 million humans, respectively.

3.2 billion stellar beings, 800 million galactic beings, and 120 million super-clustered beings?

What an incredible number!

"The most amazing thing is the fertility of the Lernaean Hydras," Leoux said. "The Lernaean Hydras are no less fertile than the pythons Earth, which means they are so much more fertile than humans."

"No less fertile than the pythons?"

It shocked Ling Jiu again. How fertile are the pythons?

A python typically lays eggs only once a year, but it can lay 8 to 30 eggs each time. Some may even lay up to a hundred eggs each time.

No less fertile than pythons. Did it not mean that an adult Lernaean Hydra could give birth to dozens of hundreds of offspring every year?

That was outrageous.

"The most unbelievable thing is, the Lernaean Hydra is hermaphrodite. That is to say, all adult Lernaean Hydras can give birth to offspring," Leoux said.

Ling Jiu had no words.

A species with an impressive self-cultivation speed, an incredible fertility, and now, hermaphrodite ability.

Why did this species have so many abilities? What gave them these unfair advantages?

"I now understand why Caius Titans were overthrown. Who could have stopped such an incredible species?" Ling Jiu forced a smile.

"The Lernaean Hydra is indeed incredible." Leoux let out a faint smile as it called up a photo of a Lernaean Hydra, which turned out to be a giant serpent with dozens of heads.

This giant snake was over 10,000 meters, its body larger than the Empire State Building, and was covered in black scales.

These were not all. The most outrageous thing about this giant serpent was that it had dozens of heads—33 to be exact.

"So many heads?" Ling Jiu was astonished.

"The most distinctive feature of the Lernaean Hydras are their heads," Leoux said. "A newborn Lernaean Hydra has only one head. Every time its strength increases, it will grow an extra head. That means, when a Lernaean Hydra has nine heads when it becomes a Level-9 planetary being, eighteen heads when it becomes a level-Nine stellar being, twenty-seven heads when it becomes a Level-9 galactic being, and thirty-six heads when it becomes a Level-9 super-clustered being. The number of heads is the most distinctive indicator of their strength. This Lernaean Hydra has thirty-three heads, which apparently is of Level-six super-clustered being."

"Amazing!" Ling Jiu shook his head. "The universe is really amazing."

"Indeed. But species that are beyond the laws of the universe like the Lernaean Hydra are rare," Leoux said. "My guess is that the Lernaean Hydra is not a naturally evolved species but an artificial life form."

"An artificial life form?" Ling Jiu could not be more shocked.

"When a species' science and technology have developed to a certain stage, they would be gods, who could almost manipulate the weather, turn stones into gold, create something from nothing, and even omnipotent, in the eyes of the primitive species," Leoux said. "And when their biotechnology reaches a certain level, creating life will also be a walk in the park for them. Take me as an illustration. As long as I have a drop of your blood, a strand of hair, or a piece of skin, I can analyze your DNA sequence and clone you."

Ling Jiu nodded, as he knew that Leoux certainly had this ability.

"It may be difficult for lower-level civilizations to create life, but for the Emissian civilization, it is a piece of cake," Leoux said. "As long as you figure out the genetic sequence of a species, you can recreate them. This is cloning, the easiest way to recreate life. A slightly higher-level life creation is akin to programming. A programmer writes a program, and then models it to create a new species. And this isn't difficult. Take the magical dragon in the Huaxian mythology as a demonstration. The dragon belongs to the imaginary totem being that combines the characteristics of nine creatures. I can recreate this dragon. Many living beings and species in the universe are man-made. The Emissian civilization uses thousands of habitable planets as its experimental bases, where many scientists are working. The living things on these planets are the subjects of study."

"Interesting." Ling Jiu nodded.

"There are many artificial beings, but they all share a common characteristic, that is, they are too uniform—an apparent sign that they are artificially made," Leoux said. "So I dare to say that the Lernaean Hydra is an artificial species. Some other boss must be behind their existence."

Chapter 337: Dinosaur Planet, Mega Tyrannosaurus

Leoux was very knowledgeable and wise. Every time Ling Jiu talked with it, he felt that he benefited a lot!

This time was no exception!

He clearly knew that the methods used by an apex civilization like the Emessians were almost the same as those legendary gods.

However, knowing aside, Ling Jiu was still astounded by the strength of a peak galactic civilization.

Plus, the Lernaeans, the insanely powerful race, was actually an artificial life?

This was just too much!

"Leoux, what do you think we should do?" Ling Jiu took a deep breath and asked slowly.

"How can one allow an outsider to occupy their home?"

Leoux laughed and said, "The Milky and the Andromeda Galaxy are very close. Once the Learnean Hydra finds a way to cross the galaxy, they will definitely march towards the Milky Way, and when that happens, there will be a big battle! So, you better plan early."

"I understand what you mean now!"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "Let's go back to train first, and once I break through into a supergalactic lifeform, we'll head to Andromeda to have a look."

"Not a problem!"

Afterward, the two left the Demon-sealing Tower.

Changmei, Bai Ya, Ling'er, and Xiaotong were still waiting outside, however, the four of them were frowning and seemed to be worried about something. Seeing Ling Jiu, the four hurriedly greeted him.

"My fellow friend."

"Brother!"

"You are still waiting here!"

After a brief greeting, Changmei asked eagerly. "My friend, did you let go the dozens of people who had left earlier?"

"Yeah."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "They are the 81 Brothers of the Soldier Lord Chi You, as they are also our ancestors, so I let them go."

"My friend, you've caused great trouble!"

Changmei panicked. "Chi You is an ancient demon, and all 81 of his brothers are all murderous, blood-lusting demons!"

"If they go free now, they'll surely go on another killing spree, and they will being chaos to the land, and heavens only know how many people will die…"

"My friend, you need not worry about that!"

Ling Jiu smiled. "Since I dare to let them go, I am naturally confident that I can deal with them. You can rest assured on this."

"Moreover, it was not me who wanted to release them, but His Majesty the Yellow Emperor."

"His Majesty? Which Emperor?"

Changmei was slightly taken aback.

"The Yellow Emperor of the Xuanyuan Clan! I ran into the spiritual projection left behind by His Majesty in the tower, and he told me to let Chi You and his 81 brothers go," Ling Jiu patiently explained.

The Demon-sealing Tower was not his property after all, and Changmei was the prison's warden, and he was invited only to reinforce the seal. For him to take away the 'prisoners' without saying a word would be ill-mannered.

So, he had to explain it properly.

"His Majesty the Yellow Emperor's orders?"

Changmei's eyes widened as his body trembled slightly. "You've encountered the spirit projection of our Lord in the tower?"

"Yes!"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly, his face was calm not feeling embarrassed at all as he spouted this nonsense.

"My Lord! I did not expect him to leave a spiritual projection behind! This is really…"

Changmei was clearly agitated as he said. "Since it is His will, then there is no problem."

"After all, the Demon-sealing Tower was made by the elders of His Majesty!"

Ling Jiu continued, "Changmei, aside from Chi You and his 81 brothers, I've killed all of the Direbeasts. Now the Demon-sealing Tower is empty, so what you worried will no longer come to pass."

"Killed all of them?"

Changmei shuddered with a look of disbelief on his face. After a while he said. "Ling Jiu, your cultivation reaches the heavens, I am truly impressed."

"So be it if they are killed, without these monsters constraining me, I can finally go to the world outside and be at ease."

Changmei suddenly became very relaxed, as if a shackle had been released from his body, and immediately he said, sounding a little embarrassed. "Ling Jiu, I heard that you have discovered an auspicious ground, can I go and visit it?"

"Of course!"

Ling Jiu smiled.

"Thank you, my friend. Changmei is grateful!"

After leaving Mount Shi, everyone returned to Chang'an Base City. After spending two days with his family, Ling Jiu went to the other three wormholes.

The three wormholes were obtained from the Demon-sealing Tower, and they each led to three different White Holes. Ling Jiu wanted to see what they were about.

The first wormhole was located inside the belly of Mount Kunlun, and Ling Jiu teleported into the mountain, easily finding the wormhole.

After passing through the wormhole and reaching the opposite end, it turned out to be a planet of life.

"Time flow rate 67:1"

"Dark Bio-energy concentration 18500:1"

Leoux quickly reported the detailed parameters of this planet:

"The atmospheric composition is similar to Earth, with a gravity of 2g and no intelligent life. The strongest lifeforms here are Level 5 supergalactic lifeforms, and there are 91 of them."

"There is another information that I think might pique your interest."

"What is it?"

Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

"All life on this planet are dinosaurs!"

Leoux smiled and said, "They are very similar to the dinosaurs on Earth such as the Tyrannosaurus, Allosaurus, Triceratops, and the like.

"However, because of the nourishment of the Dark Bio-energy, these dinosaurs are extremely powerful, and is incomparable to the dinosaurs back on Earth."

"You mean, this is a dinosaur planet?" Ling Jiu was a little surprised.

"Yeah."

Leoch nodded: "I even suspect that the dinosaurs on this planet came from Earth!"

"Unable to rule out this possibility!"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "The wormhole is connected to Earth, and humans can enter the wormhole, so of course the dinosaurs can too. Come, let's go see the dinosaurs."

With regards to the famous dinosaurs, Ling Jiu was of course very interested. He had always paid attention to all kinds of dinosaur fossils, dinosaur movies in his previous life, but he had no chance to see a proper dinosaur.

By coming to this world, although the animals on Earth had evolved, and some even atavistically, there were none that evolved into a dinosaur.

Since there are dinosaurs in this world, Ling Jiu of course had to have a look.

Using his Space Detection, all life on the entire planet clearly appeared in Ling Jiu's mind, and he teleported before a dinosaur.

This was a 30,000 meter long, more than 10,000 meter tall giant dinosaur. Its body was covered with hard carapace, and its body very stout.

Its two thighs looked like massive stone pillars, and its mouth was full of razor sharp teeth as it exuded an awe-inspiring aura.

"According to the naming convention on Earth, this should be the enlarged version of the Tyrannosaurus Rex."

Leoux laughed and said. "Its strength is a Level 3 supergalactic lifeform, putting it on this planet, it is definitely one of the top existence."

"So this is a Tyrannosaurus Rex."

Ling Jiu carefully took a measure of it.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex was eating, and its food was a triceratops spanning 10,000 meters long.

The triceratops body should had been very tough, the type with thick skin and tough flesh, but the Tyrannosaurus Rex easily tore through its skin and feasted on a big chunk of flesh as it chewed and gnawed with relish.

"That's ferocious!"

Ling Jiu was amazed. "The dinosaurs on Earth had gone extinct, and this is the biggest regret of Earth's evolution history."

"Leoux, if we were to take part of the dinosaurs here back to Earth, what do you think? Will it work?"

"That's simple. All you need to do is to clear the obstacles at both ends of the wormhole, and by then the dinosaurs here will naturally enter Earth."

"And the same time, the Dark Bio-energy on this planet will also enter Earth, greatly increasing the concentration of Dark Bio-energy on Earth in one fell swoop."

Chapter 338: Settling the Direbeasts, Leisure Time

Ling Jiu felt that if the dinosaurs were to reappear on Earth, it would be very interesting.

Not only would it satisfy humanity's illusions about the dinosaurs, it could also at the same time remind them that Earth was surrounded by powerful enemies, and it was not the time to rest on their laurels.

So it was killing two birds with one stone!

So, he immediately sprang into action, as Ling Jiu cleared the obstacles on both ends of the wormhole and fully exposed the wormhole.

For a while, the extremely rich Dark Bio-energy of the dinosaur planet continuously poured into the wormhole, and through the wormhole flowed onto Earth.

It was foreseeable that before this flow will not end until the Dark Biological energy concentration between Earth and the dinosaur planet had reached equilibrium.

As for the dinosaurs, that all depended on luck. Perhaps there wil be a time when a dinosaur approaches the wormhole, and enter it. If there was none, it was fine too. After a while, there will always be dinosaurs coming to Earth.

"Leoux, how close is the dinosaur planet to White Hole?"

"The second closest."

Leoux replied, "There are a total of four planet of life near this White Hole, and the dinosaur planet is the second closest."

"Let's go, let's have a look at the other three planets of life."

Leoux transformed into a beam of light and flew towards the nearest planet of life.

Although Ling Jiu could traverse tens of thousands of miles with a Blink, or traverse hundreds of millions of kilometers in an instant by opening a wormhole.

But compared to the vast space, tens of millions kilometers was still way, way too slow, and interstellar travel would still need to be done on the Leoux.

It… was the fastest.

Half an hour later, Ling Jiu arrived on the second planet of life, and was the closest planet to the wormhole, but it was an ocean planet.

"Time flow rate: 98:1"

"Dark Bio-energy Concentration: 46700:1"

As usual, Leoch reported the detailed parameters of this planet.

"The atmospheric composition is similar to that of Earth, with a gravity of 2.4g and no intelligent life. The strongest life on the planet has reached the Level 9 Supergalactic lifeform with a total of 6,824 supergalactic lifeforms."

Ling Jiu nodded and appeared outside the Leoux.

At a glance, the entire planet was completely covered by the ocean. There was nary a mountain, a plant in sight, only water…

A proper ocean world.

"A pretty nice planet."

With a wave of his hand, Ling Jiu released the Coral Unicorn, the Blue-winged Sea Dragon, and the Sea-splitting Dragon Whale, alongside the aquatic beasts from the 8888 great demons and said. "From today on, this is your territory. Remember, take good care of this place!"

"Yes, master!"

The Coral Unicorn and the other Direbeasts all responded respectfully. As they sensed the rich Dark Bio-energy of the planet, they were all smiles.

"What rich immortal Qi!"

"And, the ocean is so big!"

"Thank you, master!"

"Remember, train hard, and work hard to improve your strength." Ling Jiu waved his hand. "All right, go then."

"Yes, master!"

The Direbeasts nodded their heads and then disappeared into the ocean.

They were all marine Direbeasts, and they suffered the most while being imprisoned in the Demon-sealing Tower for the past 5,000 years, much more so than a land animal like the Kui Ox.

Now they had finally returned to the ocean, and a one rich in immortal qi, they were simply too excited, too elated!

As for how their entry into the ocean planet would affect the native life of the planet, Ling Jiu paid no mind to it.

The survival of the fittest.

This was the eternal law of the universe, if one is weak, then it is only right they be eaten.

"Let's go, onto another planet."

The third closest planet to the White Hole was a desert planet, with a time flow rate of 59:1 and a Dark Bio-energy concentration of 14910:1.

The fourth closest planet was a flame planet, with a time flow rate of 45:1, and the Dark Bio-energy concentration of 12717:1.

To be fair, Ling Jiu did not place the remaining Direbeats onto these two planets.

Be it the time flow rate and the Dark Bio-energy concentration were somewhat low, and he planned to look for suitable planets around the remaining two White Holes to settle them down.

Next, Ling Jiu came to the second White Hole.

This White Hole was located in Changbai Mountain, inside the Tianchi Lake of the mountain. Ling Jiu then passed through the wormhole and arrived at the planet opposite it.

This was a frozen planet, and its surface was completely covered by snow and ice.

At a glance, aside from the snow-capped mountains, there were nothing else but snow-capped mountains. It was a veritable world of ice and snow.

"Time flow rate 94:1"

"Dark Bioenergy Concentration: 44780:1"

Leoux said. "This is White Hole has six planet of life in total, and this is the third closes to the White Hole."

"A pretty nice planet."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly, and let the Ice-armored Horned Dragon and many other Direbeasts that liked the cold.

"From today on, this will be your lair. Remember, take good care of this place, and train hard at the same time to improve your strength."

"Yes, master!"

The Ice-armored Horned Dragon fell in love with the planet as soon as it saw it.

This place was even colder than its old lair in the Arctic plains, and the immortal Qi here was extremely rich. For it, there was no more perfect habitat than here.

"Go then!"

Afterwards, Ling Jiu and Leoux visited the five other planets of life, and selected suitable planets to settle the Direbeasts under his command.

After some work, half of the Ten Great Ancient Direbeasts and the 8,888 Direbeasts had been settled, leaving only another half left.

No matter, Ling Jiu then arrived at the opposite end of the third wormhole.

The opposite end of this wormhole was also a white hole, and there were eight planets of life nearby.

Ling Jiu observed these planets one by one, and then finally settled the remaining half of the Direbeasts.

The Skyshatter Rhinocerine, the Nine-winged Skydragon were all settled on a forest planet.

the Flame Golden Lion, Eight-clawed Fire Dragon and the other fire-type Direbeasts were settled on a lava planet.

The Thunder Bat Dragon, the Old Kui Ox and the other thunder-element Direbeasts were placed on a stormy planet.

This way, all Direbeasts were settled and they could guard the planet and also train at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.

Ling Jiu believed, with the nourishment from the Dark Bio-energy, they could return to their peak form in a very short time, and their strength will increase immensely.

Later on, Ling Jiu returned to Earth.

In the next few days, Ling Jiu stayed at Chang'an Base City to accompany his family, go shopping, have a meal, and live a simple and blissful life.

In a blink of an eye, half a month had passed and Ling Jiu received a call from Emperor Might, inviting him out for a meal. Ling Jiu did not refuse and gladly went to it.

When he arrived at Pangu Arcana Combine's headquarters, Vulcan was already there as Emperor Might hosted the two in the company cafeteria.

The dishes were diverse and rich. According to Emperor Might, these dishes were made by the best five-star chef in the world that he had invited, and in terms of taste, they were perfect.

"Since we returned to Earth, the three of us have not had the chance to get together."

Emperor Might dispatched the waiter and then filled Vulcan and Ling Jiu's glasses himself as he smiled and said. "After being busy for so long, I've finally finished all those work. Come, let's have a drink first."

"Cheers!"

The three of them drank and Emperor Might continued. "Over the past month, the entire world and the company's affairs is finally on the right track. So things can proceed apace now, and there's no more need for me to worry. I've decided to go to White Hole 2 tomorrow and continue my training."

"Brother Might, you and I have the same thought!"

Vulcan also nodded. "I was planning to go to White Hole 2 too! However, I want to go to White Hole 1 instead. The time flow there is the fastest and the Dark Bio-energy concentration is the strongest, which is more suitable for cultivation!"

"Yeah."

Emperor Might nodded, too.

"What are you two agitated by?"

Ling Jiu said rather speechlessly. "When the two of you were in White Hole 2, you were clamoring to come back, and now you want to leave barely after a month, this is…"

"And you have the cheek to say that!"

Vulcan rolled his eyes. "We were agitated by you. You had clearly cultivated for a shorter period than us, but you are much stronger than us! To be honest, this doesn't feel good."

"Brother Might and I were once the world's number one and number two powerhouses, but we are crushed so much by you, if it was you can you stand for that?"

Emperor Might nodded with a wry smile.

"All right, then!"

Ling Jiu had nothing to say, and could only nod. "Since you two want to leave, I certainly will not stop you, but before you leave, I'll give you two a gift!"

"A gift?"

Emperor Might and Vulcan were puzzled.

"Brother Might, Brother Vulcan, the two of you are comprehending the Law of Might and the Law of Fire right?"

"Yeah, what of it?"

"These two tomes should be useful to you two, give it a proper read."

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Emperor Might and Vulcan were good people. They were die-hard Earth loyalists, and were also trustworthy friends, so Ling Jiu was at ease at handing them the Tomes of Laws.

During the meal, the three chatted a lot.

They talked about the current situation of the earth.

They talked about the follow-up development of the earth.

They talked about the development of wormholes.

Additionally, they talked about the use of the old lairs of the four great divine pantheons.

After the meal, Ling Jiu drove the maglev car to Chang'an Base City. He had eaten a little too much just now, so he wanted to go for a drive.

"Leoux, what level of civilization you think Earth belongs to now?"

"The situation on your planet is a bit complicated."

"From the perspective of a cultivation civilization, with a supergalactic lifeform like you on Earth, it should have been a supergalactic civilization."

"But it's a pity that the people on Earth are too weak as a whole, with ninety percent of the population only a Level One or Two Planetary Lifeform."

"So, at most, all of you can be regarded as an early supergalactic civilization."

"From the perspective of a technological civilization, China and America had cracked the Ayang-Braend spaceship and have developed the Elemental Mortification technology.

"In other words, Earthlings have mastered the Elemental Mortification technology at the most basic level, and in theory should belong to an early supergalactic civilization."

"But the overall technological level of the planet is still too low, and is still at the level of an advanced planetary civilization, and not even a stellar civilization yet."

Leoux summarized. "In general, Earth still belonged to an advanced planetary civilization, but is stronger than an advanced planetary civilization."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly.

"You have powerful supergalactic lifeforms, and mastered the Elemental Mortification technology, and Earth is connected to so many wormholes."

"This is a unique advantage Earthlings have."

"Powerful supergalactic lifeforms to protect it."

"Supergalactic technologies to research!"

"There are also the wormholes, a high-speed passageway to other star regions."

Leoux said. "In other words: as long as you people make good use of these resources, you will complete the leap from a planetary civilization to a supergalactic civilization in a very short time."

Ling Jiu nodded repeatedly. He also felt that people of Earth were like children sitting upon several gold mountains, and the only thing they needed to do was to digest these gold mountains and then quickly grow up.

But growth… requires time.

"Work hard. I look forward to the day when Earth becomes a supergalactic civilization."

After returning to Chang'an Base City, Ling Jiu stayed for another two days before deciding to go to White Hole 2. The night before leaving, he called his good friend, Li Kai out.

It was still only the two of them.

It was still that food stall by the side of the road.

It was still the same beer and barbecue meat.

After not seeing him for a long while, Li Kai had matured a lot. He was now a Level 8 Arcanist, and his position was Pangu's deputy manager of the Chang'an Base City branch, and was one of the top four.

This kind of status was something he dared not imagine before, but now, Ling Jiu felt that his friend's status is rather low.

"Ol' Li, are you interested in working at the HQ?"

Ling Jiu took a gulg of beer and then chomped on a lamb skewer as he asked casually. "If you want, I can arrange it for you."

"Better not."

Li Kai smiled and refused. "I am very satisfied with my current life. Looking at the entire Chang'ang'an Base City, everyone has to give me some face."

"More importantly, my family is also in Chang'an Base City, so are my relatives and friends. I think this is great."

"Plus, my current status is not low. Of the many classmates we have back then, you are doing the best, and I'm number two."

"Heh, I'll be honest, forget being jealous of me, they are complimenting me in the class groupchat every day now… I'm enjoying everything now."

"Okay, then."

Ling Jiu did not insist, and so he changed the subject. "Say, how are our classmates doing now?"

"Most of them died in Ares' hand, killed when Lantian Base City was destroyed. The others are well, like that."

Li Kai shook his head. "They are all ordinary people. The life of ordinary people is nothing more than going to school, finding work, going to work, getting married, plain and simple."

"Yeah."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly.

"Beep~~"

Li Kai's phone suddenly rang, and he chuckled as he took out the phone. "Ol'Ling, guess who called me?"

"Who?"

Ling Jiu took a bite of the food.

"Our class rep, Xu Gang!"

Li Kai smiled and said. "Speaking of which, we haven't been in touch for a long time now, I wonder why is he calling me now."

"You'll know if you pick up."

Ling Jiu sniggered. "Take the call."

"Yeah."

Li Kai took the phone and said teasingly. "Yo, class rep, why you suddenly remembered to call me? That's super rare!"

"Hahaha! You're an important person now, I wouldn't dare to disturb you if there's nothing going on."

Xu Gang smiled and said. "Since there's nothing going on now, I dare to contact you."

"Now look whose talking!"

Li Kai laughed and asked. "What's the matter?"

"It's like this!"

Xu Gang said. "Two days ago, during the Arcana Aptitude Test, our class teacher, Yin Guoping's son had awakened his Arcana. So he was so happy that he wanted to celebrate, and asked us students to gather at the same time."

"So the class teacher asked me to contact everyone, and have a get together when all have time."

"Is that so, wait a bit, let me ask my wife if she allows it or not?"

Li Kai smiled and said. "It's not like you don't know my wife, she hates me attending class reunions. So I have to ask her opinion for this kind of things."

"Haha, the same."

After hanging up the phone, Li Kai explained what was going on in the call, and then asked. "So, you going?"

"Nah."

Ling Jiu refused without even thinking about it. He could not be bothered to attend this kind of boring class reunion, it was pointless anyway.

"It's okay if you don't go, but I must attend."

Li Kai smiled wryly. "When I got married this year, the class teacher and many classmates attended it. This time they are using the class teacher's son's celebration as an excuse, so I cannot refuse."

"Go then."

Ling Jiu nodded, and then took out four Casmodor Fruit.

"Ol' Li, I was not there when you got married, and I didn't give you anything. These four fruits, take them as my wedding gift for you."

"Don't! You of all people shouldn't be saying that to me."

Li Kai declined. "Ol' Ling, you've given me more than enough. Without you, where would I stand today?"

"But, I really do regret that you could not attend my wedding. You know, you're my best friend."

"I too felt regretful."

Ling Jiu was little helpless and he pushed the four Casmodo Fruits over. "Fine, take them. Don't be pushing around with me, it's annoying."

Li Kai smiled wryly and put the fruits away, as he asked.

"With your current status, the things you take out must not be ordinary stuff. Tell me, what's the specific use use these four fruits?"

"Nothing much really."

Ling Jiu said casually. "This is the fruit of the Sacred Casmodor Tree, eating one can at most make an ordinary person a stellar lifeform."

"You what, mate?"

Li Kai almost jumped out of his chair. Eating a piece of that would make an ordinary people a stellar lifeform?

A stellar lifeform?

At most?

Bloody hell!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Kai knew that Ling Jiu was already at a very, very high level, far beyond his imagination. Knowing was one thing, though. Upon seeing it for himself, he was still shocked.

"Ol' Ling, if I eat this, I can become a stellar lifeform?" Li Kai's voice trembled a little.

"Look at your face."

Ling Jiu rolled his eyes. "Just a stellar lifeform and you're already that excited? I just conquered nearly ten thousand supergalactic lifeforms not long ago, but a mere stellar lifeform got you so excited already?"

Li Kai smiled wryly. How was that even the same?

"Fine, let's not talk about this. Eat with me, I will be leaving tomorrow."

"Leaving? Where to?"

"Whitehole 2. The flow of time there is 99 times that of Earth, Emperor Might and the other stellar big shots on Earth are all cultivating there."

"Stellar big shots? If I become a stellar lifeform, can I go there too?"

"Of course!"

"Ol' Long, I suddenly got the motivation to go further."

"Then cultivate well, and then live longer. That way, we can come here often to have skewers."

"Okay! I will train hard."

"To encourage you to train harder, I'll give you another gift."

"Don't, don't! You've given me enough!"

"Already given it to you!"

"Already given it to me?"

"Yeah, I've already given it to you… An Arcana."

The Arcana Ling Jiu bestowed upon Li Kai was very simple, the Mimeograph Arcana.

With this Arcana, he could create duplicates, and increase his cultivation speed.

Friends were hard to find.

It was even rarer to have a close friend with whom one grew up together.

Ling Jiu hoped that Li Kai could live longer. That way, the two of them could often meet up for skewers and drinks in the future.

After all, the feeling of eating out with a friend is different from family.

Early in the morning the next day, the family set off once again and arrived directly on Whitehole 2 through the wormhole. They then restarted their cultivation.

As usual, Ling Jiu sorted out 20 duplicates and got them to comprehend the Laws of Dimension.

Planetary lifeforms…

Stellar lifeforms…

Galactic lifeform…

These three lifeforms belonged to a lower cosmic lifeform. Their main task was to evolve the star system and accumulate energy, while comprehending the laws was second.

When it came to a supergalactic or perfect lifeform or an even stronger existence, the focus was no longer the accumulation of energy but the comprehension of the laws.

One needed to know that the laws of the universe were very powerful. A normal attack, as long as enhanced with the laws of the universe, would become extremely terrifying. Its power would greatly increased.

Pure physical and energy attacks paled in comparison.

Therefore, many supergalactic lifeforms were willing to spend time comprehending the laws of the universe.

Ling Jiu had already evolved nine perfect star systems and reached Level 9 as a galactic lifeform. If he wanted to go further, he needed to comprehend more laws of dimension.

Therefore, Ling Jiu assigned 20 duplicates to study the laws of dimension, while his person continued to devour soul fragments and accumulate soul nebulae.

On the trip to the Demon-Sealing Tower, although most of the Direbeasts chose to submit, some of them refused.

So, they were captured.

Now, Ling Jiu wanted to turn all of them into resources for him to become stronger.

"Leoux, let's get it started."

"Okay!"

A large number of soul fragments gushed out of Leoux before they were absorbed into Ling Jiu's Inner World (Astral Flame Behemoth). Then, they were transformed into Dark Psionic Energy.

Next, he entered his sea of consciousness.

After Ling Jiu broke through Level 9 of Galactic Lifeform, the conversion ability of his Inner World also increased.

The galactic lifeform that he could not disintegrate earlier now can be done so within moments, even disintegrating an entire supergalactic lifeform did not take much time at all.

Disintegrating the soul fragments of a supergalactic lifeform?

It was extremely easy!

The soul fragments were continuously being decomposed as Dark Psionic Energies were continuously being infused into his sea of consciousness, and the soul nebula was expanding wildly again.

Forty-one soul star units…

Forty-two soul star units…

Forty-three soul star units.

Time passed by quickly. Without him noticing it, the soul fragments of thousands of Direbeats had all been converted into Dark Psionic Energy and infused into the soul nebula.

The soul nebula had also expanded from 40 soul star units to 52, an amazing expansion.

However, Ling Jiu was not satisfied. The larger the soul nebula was the better, and his goal was at least 100 soul star units.

"Leoux is there any way to get more Dark Psionic Energy?" Ling Jiu asked.

"There are many ways to obtain Dark Psionic Energy. You can directly capture supergalactic lifeforms and convert their souls into it. This is one of the ways."

"Second, the Leoux can draw it from the universe but this method also has flaws, and is too inefficient."

Ling Jiu slowly nodded. The speed at which the Leoux could draw DarK Psionic Energy was not actually low, it could draw upon a torrent of Dark Psionic Energy at every moment. However, it paled in comparison to the amount of Dark Psionic Energy he needed.

The Dark Psionic Energy he needs now was very huge, counted in soul stars.

What was a soul star?

It was a Dark Psionic Energy aggregate as large as a star!

What level of Dark Psionic Energy was this?

Therefore, while Leoux was absolutely able to quickly absorb Dark Psionic Energy, but it was far from being able to meet his needs. So, he needed to find another way.

"I can only find ways to capture supergalactic lifeforms," Leoux said.

"I've calculated it. In the planets surrounding the eight white holes that are linked to Earth, there are a total of more than 30,000 supergalactic lifeforms.

"Although the souls of Direbeasts are generally weaker than that of other intelligent life, they are still supergalactic lifeforms. Hence, they can provide a lot of Dark Psionic Energy."

"All right, go and capture them."

Ling Jiu agreed without hesitation. All of the planets opposite the wormhole were destined to be territories of the people on earth, especially the planets around the white holes.

The lifeforms on these planets were too powerful and were surely an obstacle, so they needed to be eliminated as soon as possible. In that case, why not now? It so happened that he could turn all of them into the resources he needed to strengthen himself.

"Understood!" Leoux responded and left with the Leoux.

Ling Jiu looked at Leoux as it disappeared into the horizon. Knowing that it would take a while for Leoux to come back, he focused on his floating island.

After the last expansion, the floating island had reached a staggering size of 50 million square kilometers.

With the labor of the Kryptonians and the gods, the area of the Arcana Tree expanded rapidly. Even so, they did not even cover one-tenth of the island's surface.

However, the Arcana Tree area was indeed amazing, and it had expanded to five million square kilometers now.

Five million square kilometers!

They planted ten trees every one meter.

After calculations, that was a total of 50 billion Arcana Trees being planted.

The Dark Bio-energy produced by 400 million Arcana Trees alone was enough to condense a planetary star core.

How many star cores could be condensed by Dark Bio-energy produced by 50 billion Arcana Trees?

One hundred and twenty-five of them!

In other words, even if Ling Jiu did nothing every day, the Floating Island could still produce 125 star cores for him!

For this alone, he was much stronger than any ordinary supergalactic lifeform.

"Plant them well."

Ling Jiu looked at the busy Kryptonians and twenty thousand gods as delight appeared at the corners of his eyes. "Gotta get the Arcana Trees planted all over the island as soon as possible."

Afterward, Ling Jiu sent his consciousness into the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar's floating island.

The Golden Saiyan Ape avatar also had a vast land of 50 million square kilometers on the floating island. Unfortunately, the number of Arcana Trees was not high.

Up to now, the trees only covered 200,000 square kilometers, but despite that, two billion Arcana Trees could still produce a massive amount of Dark Bio-energy every day.

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Whitehole 1, the closest to the white hole had a time flow rate 130 times that of Earth, and its Dark Bio-energy concentration was 69,970 times that of Earth.

Superfast time flow…

A terrifying concentration of Dark Bio-energy…

As a result, Vulcan and Emperor Might, who knew of their insufficient strength, decided to forego Whitehole 2 and go to Whitehole 1.

With the thought of trying to catch up, they planned to train hard in Whitehole 1 in an effort to narrow the gap between them and Ling Jiu.

Whitehole 1 was a desert planet, and its environment was completely incomparable to Whitehole 2. However, they were resigned to it as long as they could improve their strength.

"Let's go our separate ways for now."

"The time flow on Whitehole 1 is the fastest, and the concentration of Dark Bio-energy is also very high. Coupled with the tomes of laws Ling Jiu gave us, I hope we can break through into a supergalactic lifeform in one fell swoop."

"Good luck!"

"Okay!"

Vulcan and Emperor Might then went their separate ways.

Vulcan sped all along the way, and crossed half of the planet before arriving on a sand dune. He then landed at the top of it.

"Let's train here then."

Vulcan looked around and released the maglev airship before he stepped into it to start training.

Time passed without him noticing.

Boom!

Suddenly, the maglev airship shook violently as if a magnitude ten earthquake had struck. Vulcan was shocked, and he immediately flew out of the airship.

Then, he saw a scene that shocked him.

The maglev airship was flying up uncontrollably toward the massive mouth of a giant behemoth. Yes, it was a giant behemoth!

It was more than 60,000 meters long, and it looked like a lion with red scales. There were a pair of flaming scales on its back, a dragon head's, with nine spiral horns on it. It had six legs beneath its abdomen and a hooked tail that looked like a steel whip.

"What's that?"

Looking at the behemoth before him, Vulcan was dumbstruck as he watched his maglev airship fly into the behemoth's mouth. It was gnawed on and swallowed like a jelly bean.

Raawwrrr!

The behemoth let out a howl, not unlike a rolling thunder as the air exploded. Vulcan felt his ears being blown out as they rang.

The howling stopped, and the beast glanced at Vulcan for a bit. It paid him no heed as if it had seen an insignificant ant. It then flapped its wings and prepared to leave.

"Bloody hell! After eating my ship, it's still so arrogant!"

The behemoth's gaze made Vulcan furious. He was looked down upon by the gods on Earth, and then by the Kryptonians, so be it, but now when he came to this deserted planet, he was looked down upon by a beast that had appeared out of nowhere.

How could he bear it?

"B*stard, die!"

Vulcan roared as flames shot out from his body, and he became a flaming man bathed in fire as he shouted at the behemoth.

Roar!

Yet, the behemoth's speed of reaction was beyond Vulcan's expectation, and before his attack landed on it, the behemoth swept its tail out in a brutal arc, striking Vulcan like a baseball bat.

"Urgh!"

Vulcan spat out a mouthful of blood as he streamed and flew far, far away.

The behemoth, as if it had done something trivial, continued its flight forward.

Ling Jiu had no idea what was happening on Whitehole 1, or else he would have been extremely interested in it.

Vulcan and Emperor Might were both peak galactic lifeforms, and unless they ran into a supergalactic lifeform, it would be difficult to defeat them. However, Vulcan had just been…

Clearly, that giant behemoth was a supergalactic lifeform!

The question was, he had already cleaned out all life from Whitehole 1, so where did this behemoth pop out from?

Ling Jiu was a little bored, as he suddenly did not know what to do.

There were twenty of his duplicates comprehending the laws of dimension, while there were Kryptonians and the gods managing the floating island.

So what should he do?

After Ling Jiu thought about it, he sank his mind into the floating island and suddenly found that the floating island was rather lifeless. So, he planned to put some Direbeasts on it.

There were plenty of Direbeasts on Whitehole 2.

Using his dimensional sensing, everything on Whitehole 2 was clearly fed back to him, and Ling Jiu selected the appropriate Direbeasts.

After all, the floating island was a place where Dark Bio-energy was produced, and he could not choose a Direbeast had was too strong as their ability to absorb Dark Bio-energy would be too powerful.

After some selection, Ling Jiu chose 10,086 stellar-level Direbeasts, a total of 543 species of Direbeasts, two of each, one male one female, of which they could mate and breed.

As the 10,086 Direbeasts entered the floating island, it immediately became lively, as their Direbeasts darted through the forest and roared.

The island was no longer lifeless and was now vibrant.

Ling Jiu was very satisfied with the changes on the floating island. This was his world, so he naturally hoped it would be as vibrant and lively as possible.

"Ling Jiu, I'm back!"

Leoux's voice rang out.

"Yeah."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "I've been waiting for a long time now. How's the haul?"

"All life on the planets around the eight Whiteholes have been collected for a total of 36,888 supergalactic lifeforms."

Leoux answered, "I believe this group of Direbeasts should be able to provide a lot of Dark Psionic Energy."

"Let's get started then."

Ling Jiu nodded. "I hope that with these Direbeasts, the soul nebula can reach 100 soul star units."

"I hope so."

A steady stream of soul fragments was infused into his Inner World, and they were then converted into Dark Psionic Energy that entered his sea of consciousness. Following that, the soul nebula began to expand again.

Fifty-three soul star units…

Fifty-four soul star units…

Fifty-five soul star units.

Time passed by quickly, and like a dew upon a lotus' leaf, sliding quickly and directly into the water, and without him noticing, three years had passed quietly.

On this day, Ling Jiu slowly opened his eyes, as a look of contemplation appeared in his eyes.

"The soul fragments of 36,888 Direbeasts were still not enough for the soul nebula to reach 100 soul star units. Ah, so disappointing…"

Not only that, the soul nebula only expanded to 81 soul star units, which was still far from the 100 soul star units he had wanted.

"There is no other way now!" Leoux said.

"You can only go to the Andromeda system to capture the Learnean Hydras. They have a lot of supergalactic lifeforms there, and should be able to provide a lot of Dark Psionic Energy."

"I originally wanted to wait for both my real body and the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar to break through supergalactic lifeform before acting, but now it's clear that I cannot wait."

Ling Jiu stood up and said. "Let's go Leoux, to Andromeda."

"Okay!"

Leoux responded and a flash of excitement appeared in its eyes. It had long wanted to go to Andromeda, and wanted to see the big boss behind the Learnean Hydras.

However, just when the two were about to depart, Leoux suddenly let out a soft 'Eh?' as a smile appeared.

"Ling Jiu, perhaps we need not need to go to Andromeda after all."

"What do you mean?"

Ling Jiu's eyes lit up a little.

"The probe I left on Olympus has sent a message back. A spaceship has suddenly landed on Olympus."

Leoux smiled and said, "The information from the probe shows that very powerful life signatures have been detected on this spacecraft. There's more than one supergalactic lifeform."

"Come, let's go have a look."

"Okay!"

Chapter 342: The Titans Strikes, Brutal Battle

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The home planets of the Greek, Norse, Hindu, and Egyptian deities were around a white hole, respectively.

Since they were close to white holes, they became the priority target of Leoux.

Before leaving, Leoux had left behind probes on dozens of planets near the four white holes to monitor everything that happened on these planets to deal with any emergencies.

Especially after Uranus and other Caius Titans broke out of the prison and sent distress signals into the universe, Olympus, the lair of the Greek deities, became a key surveillance target.

There were dozens of probes monitoring Olympus.

At this moment, a spaceship was descending on Olympus.

It was a strange spaceship, looking like a bull's head as a whole, with two long black pointed horns on the top. Its surface was engraved with strange patterns, as if it was a steel fortress in the shape of a bull's head.

As the bull's-head spacecraft landed on the surface of Olympus, the hatch opened, and a dozen giants flew out.

They were nearly a hundred meters tall, wearing black armor, a bull's-head helmet. They were extremely burly, with knotty muscles.

"So this is the planet that sent the distress signal?"

"Yes."

"In other words, there are survivors of the Caius Titan on this planet? Someone, search the entire planet and find the people who sent the signal."

"Aye, Patriarch!"

The group returned to the spaceship and searched along the surface of the planet.

But they did not find what they wanted. This angered the patriarch.

"What the hell is going on? Why can't we find our people? I thought they sent the distress signal from here? What's wrong?"

Unlike other giants, the patriarch wore golden armor. The bull's-head steel helmet on top of his head was also golden, his body twice as large.

"Patriarch, we found that the time flow of this planet differs from the normal universe. It is 16 times faster."

"We received the distress signal thirty-seven days ago. After conversion, that was five-hundred-ninety-two days ago here."

The patriarch frowned slightly as he listened to his men's reports. "Klenos, you mean that our people who sent the distress signal have left?"

"I don't rule out this possibility," Klenos said. "We have conducted rigorous screening of this planet and found that the most powerful beings on this planet were just galactic beings. They can't pose a threat to us, the Caius Titans. So it is very unlikely that those who sent the distress signal were killed."

"In other words, they really left? But where can they go?"

The patriarch let out a soft sigh, with a grudging expression on his face.

Since the Caius Titans were wiped out 5,000 years ago, the surviving people were scattered all over the universe.

He had been looking for the surviving people for the past 5,000 years, trying to gather strength and restore the glory of the Caius Titan.

Everyone surviving Caius Titan was precious to him. When he received the distress signal sent from Olympus, he hurried over with no hesitation.

He became restless when he did not find them.

"Patriarch, what should I do next?" Klenos asked quietly.

"We have got a wasted trip." The patriarch snorted. "Destroy this planet."

"Aye, Patriarch." Klenos responded with respect.

"Tsk tsk, you want to destroy the planet? So quick to lose your cool, eh?"

Just then, a mocking voice resounding inside the spaceship stunned all the giants. The patriarch was furious. "Who is it?"

Ripples formed in the void as a tiny man emerged inside the spaceship.

All eyes were on the man.

"Who are you?" The patriarch snapped, his eyes locked on this person.

"The one who will tell you the answer."

The person was none other than Ling Jiu. He grinned as he looked at the giants in the spaceship.

"I suppose you all come to this planet because of the distress signal, aren't you?"

"Who did you know that?" The patriarch frowned.

Ling Jiu smiled. "Honestly, it was a group of Titans who sent the distress signal. They are tens of thousands of meters tall, and claim to be the Caius Titans, with the leading one called Uranus."

"Uranus?"

The patriarch's face changed drastically upon hearing the name. "It's Prince Uranus!"

"Prince Uranus?"

The expressions of the other giants also changed.

Before the fall of the Caius Titans, their social system was a tribal alliance system, which comprised over 10,000 tribes.

Among so many tribes, the strongest one was the Sky Tribe, the patriarch of which was also called the Chieftain.

The children of the Chieftain were called Princes and Princesses.

Uranus was called the Prince, which meant he was the son of the Chieftain. Did it not mean that the son of the Chieftain was still alive?

Until the fall of the Caius Titans, the Sky Tribe, the strongest tribe of the Caius Titans, had always been the key target of the enemy.

From the ordinary people to the Chieftain of the Sky Tribe had been killed by the enemy. This had made people think that the Sky Tribe had gone extinct.

No one had expected that the son of the Chieftain was still alive.

"Where is Prince Uranus?" The patriarch was very excited, asking in a loud voice.

"He is dead." Ling Jiu sounded nonchalant. "I killed him."

"What did you say?" The patriarch was shocked and furious. "How dared you killed Prince Uranus!"

"Why not?" Ling Jiu flicked his fingers. "He was not an invincible being. Why couldn't he be killed?"

"Goddamn it, you killer!" The patriarch started to roar in anger. "Prince Uranus is the hope and future of the Caius Titans. Yet you killed him. I will kill you today and grind your treacherous bones to dust!"

While the furious roar was still reverberating in the void, the patriarch had already faded into a stream of light and flew towards Ling Jiu.

"It's been a long time since I last fought. It's time to have some fun."

Ling Jiu moved his neck and form-shifted into the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar.

Saiyan Golden Apes were formidable warriors. Battle was the best way for the Saiyan Golden Apes to grow stronger.

In particular, the Saiyan Golden Ape, as Ling Jiu's avatar, had the most abundant source of vitality. It had been in a state of energy saturation for a long time and needed to fight to grow stronger quickly.

Pow!

The two sides clashed.

The patriarch was very fearsome. As a Caius Titan, he possessed an extremely powerful physique and infinite strength.

Coupled with him as an apex super-clustered being, his combat strength was unmatched, As strong as the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar was, it could barely match the patriarch.

But it did not matter to Ling Jiu. He was delighted instead of angry. This was exactly what he was looking for—fighting an uphill battle to horn his physique and explore his potential.

Bwoom!

Bwoom!

Chapter 343: The Titan Mothership, 100,000 Titans

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The violent collision quickly destroyed the spaceship the giants were riding on, but the patriarch did not care. Instead, he continued his frantic attack.

The patriarch had impressive combat strength, his moves ferocious. Apparently, he would not stop until he could tear Ling Jiu into pieces.

However, it puzzled him. Ling Jiu was obviously weaker than him, yet he could not hurt Ling Jiu one bit. Ling Jiu was not only unhurt but also becoming stronger after each attack.

"D*mn it!"

The patriarch was exasperated, doubling down his strength and attack.

Unfortunately, it was useless. The Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had too much blood.

It had the Floating Island as its source of enormous Dark Bio-energy, from which it produced vitality and Arcana. It was incapable of being hurt or dying as long as there was a Dark Bio-energy supply.

On the contrary, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar was using Dark Bio-energy to increase its physical strength.

It was no exaggeration to say that with the Floating Island and many Arcanas, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar was no longer a simple Golden Saiyan Ape.

It was the perfect, ultimate Golden Saiyan Ape warrior with no shortcomings, and it had far better potential than any other Golden Saiyan Ape.

"Kill him for me!"

The patriarch was shocked and realized that he must not allow Ling Jiu to continue growing after his attacks failed successively.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Aye, Patriarch."

The other giants joined the battle with no hesitation.

"There is nothing brave about ganging up. That's too much."

Ling Jiu might not have had fun being beaten up by the patriarch, but he chose to grin and bear it so that he could quickly improve his strength.

It would not be a battle but a self-flagellation when a group of giants joined the fight. He did not like that idea of self-flagellation and would not allow them to do that to him.

"Grab these people, Leoux. They are a nuisance."

"You got it."

When Leoux struck, no one could escape from it. The remaining giants were quickly suppressed and apprehended. Now, the patriarch was the only one left.

"D*mn it! What have you done?" The patriarch was shocked and enraged upon seeing the group of giants disappear into Ling Jiu's wrist.

These people were the survivors he had found from different places. They were his lifeblood and the hope of the Caius Titan's revival. He would never allow anything to happen to his people.

How could he tolerate when his people were captured under his nose?

"Nothing. Just a fair fight!" Ling Jiu let out a faint smile. "Keep fighting if you want them back. You may get them back if you kill me."

"You thief! I will kill you!"

The super-clustered being was so powerful that his every move released enough energy to destroy everything.

When fighting with the king of the gods, Zeus, the sun god, Ling Jiu was extremely strained. One false move could cause tremendous destruction to Earth.

It might not advance to the point of destroying the entire Earth, but mass casualties were assured. This time around, nothing could hold Ling Jiu back. The same applied to the patriarch.

So Olympus was bearing the brunt of the battle.

Mountains were razed to the ground.

The earth was smashed into a basin.

Rivers had stopped flowing.

Trees were broken.

The Direbeasts and native people living on Olympus suffered the most; they were pulverized, becoming collateral damage.

It was a day of disaster.

The battle lasted from morning to afternoon, and from afternoon to evening. When the star was about to set, the battle finally ended.

The two sides looked at each other from afar.

Ling Jiu was bedraggled, but his eyes were bright. He suffered no injury.

On the other hand, the patriarch was gasping for breath. He looked perfectly okay—not a hair out of place, but deep down, he was completely exhausted.

"What kind of monster are you?"

The patriarch's eyes were bloodshot. He stared at Ling Jiu and could not understand why Ling Jiu suffered no injury despite receiving the heavy blows.

Not only that, there was no sign of exhaustion or flush on Ling Jiu's face, as if he had not been fighting just now.

That just made little sense.

"My strength is not something you can measure." Ling Jiu smirked. "You must be exhausted by now. Take a break. We shall continue tomorrow."

"What do you mean?" The patriarch frowned.

He then saw a smoke-like black chain shoot out from Ling Jiu's wrist toward him.

"Sh*t!"

His face changed drastically. That was how his people had been captured. Now, it was coming for him.

The patriarch fled with no hesitation. As quick as he was, the black chain was even quicker. After he ran a mere hundred meters, the black chain caught him and bound him up like a dumpling before it took him back into the Leoux.

"These powerful Caius Titans make excellent sparring partners. They will help the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar become a super-clustered being," Ling Jiu said. "You just mentioned mothership. What is it about, Leoux?"

"These Titans and their spaceship are not alone here on Olympus. There is also a mothership waiting above Olympus," Leoux said. "I have done a brief investigation; there are nearly 100,000 Caius Titans on that mothership."

"No wonder these Titans couldn't care less even when their spaceship was wrecked. It turns out they have a mothership out there." Ling Jiu finally put two and two together. "Let's check it out."

As soon as his voice trailed off, Ling Jiu teleported out of Olympus into outer space. There, he saw a giant spaceship floating near the planet.

As much as it was a spaceship, it looked more like a planet. It was as large as the Moon, spherical, with horns all over its surface.

"So this is the mothership of the Caius Titans?" Ling Jiu was wide-eyed.

"I just retrieved the memory of a Titan," Leoux said. "There is a lot of useful information, one of which is about the remnants of the Caius Titans."

"What is it?" Ling Jiu cocked an eyebrow.

"Since the Lernaean Hydras decimated the Caius Titans five thousand years ago, the surviving Caius Titans have scattered into different parts of the universe," Leoux said. "Dolanos, who just fought with you, is one of them. He is the patriarch of the Dola Tribe. Dolanos and a small number of his people have been wandering around for the past five thousand years after fleeing to safety. They are looking for the other Caius Titans, who might have survived. They want to gather their strength and restore the glory of the Caius Titans. He has been to many places and found many surviving Titans over the years. Some people followed him while some rejected him. The one hundred thousand Caius Titans on this mothership have been fooled into following him, but more Titans have rejected him."

"Leoux, you mean…" Ling Jiu's eyes brightened up.

"The fact that Caius Titans dominated the Andromeda galaxy shows how impressive their talent and strength are. A Caius Titan will become a stellar being upon reaching adulthood. The genius ones would become galactic beings, and the best of these geniuses would become super-clustered beings," Leoux said. "It is a superb species that makes excellent gardeners, just like the Kryptonians. Of course, the super-clustered beings among them can also provide a lot of Dark Psionic Energy."

"That's absolutely right."

Chapter 344: Capturing the Titans, Cosmic Consciousness

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There were indeed 100,000 Caius Titans on this mothership. They were the same Primordial beings, just like Uranus, Gaia, and others from the Greek pantheon.

However, the old and the young, as well as the weak and the strong, made up these 100,000 Titans. The strongest among them were the super-clustered beings, while the weakest ones, the Level 9 galactic beings.

The number of super-clustered beings was 10,001.

It just showed how powerful this species was. Overall, they were many times stronger than humans.

"Leoux, kill all the super-clustered beings, retrieve and grind their souls into fragments."

Upon boarding the mothership and capturing the 100,000 Titans, Ling Jiu immediately issued an order. "Brainwash all the remaining Titans and send them into the Floating Island as gardeners."

"You got it."

Leoux was quick. It had retrieved the souls of all the 1,0001 super-clustered beings and turned them into soul fragments in no time.

Ling Jiu devoured them indiscriminately and transformed them into Dark Psionic Energy in his Inner World. He then sent the energy into his sea of consciousness to expand the Soul Nebula.

Eighty-one soul stellar units…

Eighty-two soul stellar units…

Eighty-three stellar units.

Time passed quickly. After absorbing the souls of 10,001 super-clustered beings, his Soul Nebula reached 91 soul stellar units.

Ninety-one was an impressive figure.

It was also a number that would put most of the Evogods to shame.

Unfortunately, Ling Jiu was still not satisfied because he was still nine soul stellar units short of his target of 100 soul stellar units.

"Where can I find more super-clustered beings now, Leoux?"

Ling Jiu took a deep breath, feeling a little tired deep down. He had devoured the souls of 50,000 super-clustered beings to expand his Soul Nebula.

Fifty thousand super-clustered beings…

He had hunted all the nearby super-clustered beings. Now, where could he go to find more super-clustered beings?

"Thre's no hurry," Leoux said. "As I said before, Dolanos has been to many places, and I have seen many surviving Titans. Some of them were willing to follow him, but some of them refused. We can find those Titans that have refused to join him."

"Huh?" Ling Jiu's eyes lit up.

"There are over one hundred thousand of them, and they definitely live near Olympus," Leoux said. "With the speed of the Leoux, we can completely capture all those Titans in a week."

"Let's go, then."

Earth and Olympus were connected by a wormhole.

Olympus was not in the Milky Way. Leoux did not know which galaxy it was in, though.

However, one thing was certain; it was close to the Andromeda Galaxy.

After the remnants of the Caius Titans escaped, most of them had fled to the star field around Andromeda.

With the navigation capability of the Caius Titans, they could not make it far in just 5,000 years. So they must be somewhere near the Andromeda Galaxy.

A week later, Leoux descended on the nearest planet.

This planet had less than an ideal environment. It was mountainous, with relatively few plains and vegetation, completely unlike an ideally habitable planet like Earth.

Despite that, there was a group of Titans living on this planet.

"There are thirty-eight Caius Titans on this planet. They all escaped from the Andromeda Galaxy. Among them, there are over 400 super-clustered beings."

"Capture them all."

Over an hour later, the Titan who had escaped to this planet had all been captured. Leoux then moved on to the next planet.

"There are over two thousand six hundred Titans staying on this planet."

"So few of them? Capture."

Ling Jiu and Leoux followed the information left by Dolanos, going around to capture all the Titans they could find.

He killed all the super-clustered beings, shredded their souls, and sent them into the sea of consciousness.

The remaining Titans were all brainwashed and sent to the Floating Island as gardeners.

Two months later, Leoux arrived on the last planet.

"This was the last planet that Dolanos found with surviving Titans. The number is about forty-eight thousand, of which over five thousand two hundred are super-clustered beings."

"Take them all."

Two hours later, all the Titans on this planet were also captured.

With excitement, Ling Jiu entered the special training room on the Leoux. He sped up the time flow and started absorbing the soul fragments.

His Soul Nebula expanded once again.

97 soul stellar units.

98 souls stellar units.

99 soul stellar units.

After some time, the Soul Nebula finally broke the 100 mark. Ling Jiu was extremely excited about it.

He had achieved the goal that he had set, and the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution could finally enter the next stage. He could be happier.

"There are still soul fragments left. Do you want to continue, Ling Jiu?"

"There are? Let's continue, then."

Passing the 100 mark did not mean that the Soul Nebula had to stop the expansion.

In fact, it had limits on how large it could grow.

Since there were still soul fragments left, Ling Jiu certainly did not want them to go to waste. He was more than happy to let the Soul Nebula continue to expand.

After all, the larger the Soul Nebula, the higher its potential.

101 soul stellar units.

102 soul stellar units.

103 soul stellar units.

"Well, the soul fragments have finally been exhausted." Leoux's voice came, and Ling Jiu stopped devouring.

"The Soul Nebula has stabilized at 103 soul stellar units. Congratulations!"

"103 soul stellar units? Not half bad at all," Leoux said. "Throughout the entire history of the Evogods, few of them could reach the level of one hundred and three stellar units. You can now enter the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution."

Ling Jiu nodded, and then curiously asked, "Which Evogod had the largest Soul Nebula in history, and how large was it, Leoux?"

"Huh? Are you thinking of having a friendly match with it?" Leoux shook his head with a smile. "The Evogods might have perished, but they at last had an eighty million-year history of development behind them. This has not taken into account the sped-up time the Evogods spent near the white holes that they had occupied. Besides, the Evogods were once the apex species, the civilization that stood at the pinnacle of the universe. The geniuses born of such a species are not something we can fathom. Yen Monti had the largest Soul Nebula in the history of the Evogods, with ten thousand and eighty-one soul stellar units. The second place came close at nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-seven soul stellar units."

"Ten thousand and eighty one?" Ling Jiu was stunned. "Could it get larger than this?"

"Yeah, how else could it break the record of the Evogods?" Leoux said. "Yen Monti's Soul Nebula was so massive that the Soul Black Hole that it formed was also the largest among all the Evogods."

"Yen Monti was second to none. Considering how powerful its soul was, it should have attained immortality."

"But the strange thing is, Yen Monti has died."

"It has died?" Ling Jiu was shocked.

"Yeah, it has died." Leoux nodded slightly. "No one knows exactly how it died. But there are

"What rumors?" Ling Jiu asked.

"It is said that after Yen Monti completed the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, it wanted to refine the entire universe with its soul to become a cosmic consciousness. But it encountered a backlash and died," Leoux said. "Of course, it is just a rumor. No one knows if that is true. But a soul as strong as that, even if without physical self-cultivation and comprehension of the laws, it could still be the most powerful and unbeatable being in the universe."

Report chapter

Chapter 345: Going All Out, Alien Guests

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At first, Ling Jiu's target for his Soul Nebula was 100 soul stellar units.

He would officially enter the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution: forming the Soul Primordial Star as soon as he made this breakthrough.

However, he suddenly felt that Soul Nebula of 100 soul stellar units was no longer good enough.

One hundred soul stellar units?

As much as it was an outstanding achievement and among the best of the Evogods, it was still nowhere close to the record-breaking 10,0081 souls stellar units.

"I suddenly don't feel like going to the second stage yet, Leoux." Ling Jiu let out a sigh. "Let's first expand the Soul Nebula. The bigger, the better."

"Are you sure?" Leoux asked.

"I am sure." Ling Jiu nodded.

"A wise choice you have made there," Leoux said. "The primary purpose of entering the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution is nothing more than to increase the strength of the soul. The main reason for increasing the strength of the soul is to increase the speed of comprehension of the Laws of the Universe. But apparently, for you who have books on the laws and twenty mimeographed bodies, the speed of comprehending the Laws of Dimensions is anything but slow. So, you don't actually need to rush into the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution. Instead, you can expand the Soul Nebula further and increase the potential of your soul. After all, the higher the soul potential, the greater your future achievements."

"Indeed." Ling Jiu nodded.

"Where are we going next?" Leoux asked.

"Let's go home first. Wait until the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar becomes a super-clustered being. Then, we will go to the Andromeda Galaxy and hunt down the Lernaean Hydras."

"Okay."

This trip took over two months, plus a few years in Whitehole 2. It was equal to three months on Earth.

Three months were short, but Earth had undergone significant changes. That was mainly because of the level of Gene Arcana concentration.

Everyone wanted to be stronger, healthier, live longer, and possess Arcanas.

So everyone planted Arcana trees in flower pots, backyards, and neighborhoods for the past three months. This magical plant that produced Gene Arcana quickly popped up on the surface of Earth.

With the addition of eight wormholes connected with white holes, the continuous circulation of dark bio-energy had increased the Gene Arcana and dark bio-energy on Earth by several tens of times, from the initial 0.081% to 6.8%. It was still rising.

The increase in Gene Arcana was so rapid that even ordinary people could feel it.

Injured legs were healed.

Those who could not run could now sprint.

Those who could not jump could now leap.

The rich Gene Arcana was subtly changing people's physical fitness and raising Earth's blood level.

Ling Jiu's phone rang as soon as he arrived on Earth. There were several missed calls and messages from Li Kai.

"Are you still on Earth, Ling Jiu?"

"I have become a stellar being, Ling Jiu. My entire family has become stellar beings."

"I have signed from all positions in the company and plan to practice self-cultivation in Whitehole 2."

"Ling Jiu, I'm going to Whitehole 2 and will come to see you soon."

"This fella." Ling Jiu shook his head with a smile.

He was still using an ordinary mobile phone. So when he left Earth, he could no longer receive calls. That was the reason he got so many missed calls and text messages as soon as he arrived back on Earth.

Ling Jiu did not stay on Earth for long. He went on to Whitehole 2, planning to reach the super-clustered level in one fell swoop. There was no time to lose.

He immediately spotted Li Kai's maglev airship as soon as he arrived. Li Kai and the stellar beings from Earth were immersed in self-cultivation there.

He did not want to disturb Li Kai, so he started his own self-cultivation.

He first sent the 200,000 Caius Titans that had been brainwashed to his and his avatar's Floating Islands, 100,000 each.

Ling Jiu believed that the addition of the 200,000 Caius Titans would speed up the planting of the super Arcana trees.

He then asked Leoux to bring the Golden SaiyanApe avatar to Whitehole 1, where the avatar would receive intensive training to improve its strength in the quickest possible time.

The sparring partner of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar was none other than the patriarch, Dolanos. He was an apex super-clustered being and stronger than the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar itself.

This sparring partner would speed up the growth of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar.

Meanwhile, Ling Jiu remained on Whitehole-2 to digest the Law of Dimensions that his 20 mimeographed bodies had comprehended over the past few years.

He was a Level 9 galactic being, and he had accumulated enough energy. If he wanted to reach the super-clustered level, he would have to comprehend enough laws.

According to Leoux, one could become a super-clustered being only when that person had comprehended at least 10% of the Laws of the Universe.

Up to now, Ling Jiu had comprehended the zero-dimensional space and one-dimensional space in the Law of Dimensions. He only needed to comprehend the two-dimensional space to reach the target of 10% of the Law of Dimensions.

He would be a super-clustered being by then.

Fortunately, the years of study from his 20 mimeographed bodies were good enough for him to comprehend the two-dimensional space.

What Ling Jiu would do next was to fuse 20 mimeographed bodies and their memories, which would naturally enable him to attain the super-clustered level.

"The zero-dimensional space is a point. The one-dimensional space is a line. The two-dimensional space is a plane."

Ling Jiu quickly digested the memory of his mimeographed bodies to improve his comprehension of the Law of Dimensions.

What he did not know was that far beyond Earth's atmosphere, in the silent space, ripples like the tide of the ocean appeared.

After a while, a black steel fortress with metallic luster flew out of the ripples and came outside Earth.

Looking closer, it was a black spaceship that looked like a squid with many octopus tentacles.

It was massive and cold, and black and heavy.

"Those interstellar pirates told me that the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth had been taken to this planet, right?"

"Yes, Sir. If the information provided by the interstellar pirates is anything to go by, the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth should be on this planet."

"Those pirates better not lie to me. Otherwise, I won't mind turning them into garbage in the universe. Go, find me the Flame Astral Behemoth's gg."

"Yes, Sir."

The spacecraft that was reminiscent of squid plunged into the atmosphere of Earth at once, like a meteorite.

A few minutes later, it came above the surface of Earth.

At that moment, it was morning on this side of the earth. Some people were having their breakfast, some were squeezing into subways to go to work, some were still sleeping, and some were taking care of the Arcana tree at home. Everything seemed peaceful.

People and countries on Earth had not noticed the spacecraft hovering motionless in the sky.

Inside the control center of the spacecraft, hundreds of figures stood straight.

Some of them had double horns on their heads, like the Minotaur; some had wings on their backs, just like winged people; some had crocodile heads with crocodile tails; some looked like humans but had blue skin.

They were of different shapes, but what remained the same was that they wore the same uniform and the same facial detectors, just like Frieza's men.

In front of these hundreds of figures sat an alien wearing golden armor. This alien had black horns, a red cloak, and a long tail.

It held a wineglass and stood in front of the transparent window, looking down at the planet under his feet with a smile.

"This planet looks pretty good."

Chapter 346: Breaking Out in a Cold Sweat, Exiled Once Again

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Sir, this planet has a radius of 6,400 kilometers and a surface area of 500 million square kilometers, of which 71% is ocean and 29% is land. The gravitational force on the surface of this planet is not high, only one-tenth that of Alastor. The air comprises about 78% of nitrogen and 21% of oxygen. The most important thing is that the atmosphere of this planet contains a high level of Gene Arcana, about 45% of that on Alastor."

Lord Noyin was surprised upon hearing what his man said. "There is such a high level of Gene Arcana content on this planet?"

"It is, Sir." His man affirmed him.

Lord Noyin knew it was impossible for his men to make mistakes on this simple thing, his expression turning serious.

"With such a rich Gene Arcana content, life on this planet must be powerful, I guess. Have you detected any super-clustered beings?"

His man shook his head. "No, Sir. Not even galactic but only a dozen stellar beings."

"How could this be possible?" Lord Noyin was even more surprised. "The Gene Arcana level on this planet is so high, yet there isn't even a single galactic being? This makes no sense at all."

"Our scanner can't be wrong, Sir," his man said with confidence. "Not only that, the ordinary intelligent life on this planet are only Level 1 and Level 2 planetary beings."

"I can't believe that they are so weak." Lord Noyin frowned. "What about their technological level?"

"This planet has developed a scientific and technological civilization that is about the level of planetary civilization. They are only one step away from stellar civilization."

"The pinnacle of planetary civilization? Not bad." Lord Noyin raised his eyebrows slightly. "What a strange planet. It has such a conducive self-cultivation environment and a high level of technological development, yet they have such a low level of civilization. How are they evolving, really? It doesn't conform to the Laws of the Universe."

"The universe is infinitely vast. A planet in the remotest corner of the universe is like an isolated island in the ocean, isolated from the world. It has no contact with the rest of the universe. So it is no surprise that it has an abnormal development path." The man next to him chuckled.

"You have a point." Lord Noyin swirled the red wine in his hand. "A species at the pinnacle of planetary civilization should have developed an information network. Hack their network to find out all relevant information about this species. Of course, the priority is on the whereabouts of the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth."

"Yes, sir."

His man responded and immediately issued instructions. The spacecraft AI immediately hacked Earth's network for information about technology, military, economy, and religion.

"I hope to find the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth. I can strike back at the Balkan Empire and regain the throne as soon as I have my hand on the egg." Lord Noyin swirled the scarlet wine in his hand again with an expectant look in his scarlet eyes. "Don't let me down."

"No worries, Sir." The man next to him reassured him. "No matter how daring those interstellar pirates are, they would not dare to deceive you, Sir. They have been cast with the Curse of the First Embrace spell. Their veins will burst and they will die if they deceive you. They know that."

"Let's hope so."

Time passed. Ten minutes later, the spacecraft's AI had searched through all the information of Earth.

"Sir, we have sorted out the detailed information about this planet." The AI's voice sounded inside the spacious spacecraft.

"Did you find the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth?" Lord Noyin asked in a deep voice as he tried to control his excitement.

"No," the AI replied. "There is no information about the Flame Astral Behemoth and its egg on this planet."

"There isn't?" Lord Noyin's voice went up an octave.

"Nothing." The spacecraft's AI repeated itself.

"Nothing… there is nothing?" Lord Noyin smashed the goblet in his hand to the floor like an angry lion. "How dare those interstellar pirates lie to me! D*mn it!"

The hearts of his men skipped a beat. They knew that when Lord Noyin was furious, the consequences could be serious. He would destroy the planet and slaughter any living things on the planet. It was going to be horrible.

"But…" The spacecraft's AI suddenly said. "I might not have found the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth, but I discovered something interesting."

"What is it?" Lord Noyin fought back his anger.

"This planet, which they call Earth, has something magical that I think you, Sir, would be interested in," the spacecraft's Ai said.

"Stop playing suspense and cut to the chase!" Lord Noyin became impatient. He was in a bad mood after coming all the way to this place but finding no trace of the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth.

"There are many miniature wormholes on Earth," the spacecraft's AI quickly said. "These miniature wormholes act like highways. They lead to different parts of the universe, hundreds of different starfields."

"What did you say?" Lord Noyin was taken aback. "This is just a planet in the remotest part of the universe. How can it have so many miniature wormholes?"

"But there really are," The spacecraft's AI said. "According to the information I got from Earth's network, one hundred and eight miniature wormholes had been discovered. They lead to one hundred and eight different planets. Five of the wormholes even lead to five different white holes."

"How could this be even possible?" Lord Noyin stood up in shock. "How can there be so many wormholes on a planet with a low civilization level? It makes little sense."

"But this is indeed the case," the spacecraft's AI said. "Not only that. Life on Earth is not as weak as we think. There are not only galactic but super-clustered beings, albeit just one. Half a year ago, many beings who called themselves 'gods' emerged from some of these wormholes. Many of them were super-clustered beings. They invaded Earth and had a war with the humans. It ended with a super-clustered human slaughtering all those gods. At that time, over two thousand Kryptonians had also come to Earth. But they were also slaughtered by that super-clustered human."

"No way!"

Lord Noyin and his men's jaws dropped.

At first, they thought this was just another planet in the universe. Yet the appearance of so many super-clustered beings really knocked their socks off. That begged the question whether this was really just another planet?

Super-clustered beings were not weaklings.

Even in the Balkan Empire, super-clustered beings were considered powerhouses.

How did a native on Earth kill such powerful beings?

How powerful was that native?

Lord Noyin swallowed, his body shivering involuntarily.

"Where is that native and the galactic beings on this planet? Why haven't you detected their signs of life?"

"They have entered the wormhole to practice self-cultivation near a white hole," the spacecraft's AI said.

"No wonder." Lord Noyin was relieved, his eyes brightening up. "In other words, there are only stellar beings on Earth right now?"

"It is, Sir," the spacecraft's AI said.

"Kaine, did you just say they are practicing self-cultivation near a white hole?" Lord Noyin asked slowly.

"That's right, Sir."

"What if we destroy the wormhole leading to that white hole?" Lord Noyin asked again.

"Humans are still on a planetary civilization level. There is no spacecraft capable of interstellar travel."

"Once the wormhole is destroyed, those galactic and super-clustered beings near the white hole would live in exile. They would never return to Earth."

Chapter 347: Fifth-Grade Alloy, Occupying Earth

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Originally, Lord Noyin did not pay any mind to the Earthlings at all.

The strongest were just stellar lifeforms!

Their civilization level was only a peak planetary civilization!

Such a planet, when placed in a remote galaxy, may still be worthwhile, but for him, the Grand Duke of the Balkan Empire, it was nothing at all.

He had enough capital and strength to look down upon the people of Earth.

But…

When he heard more news about Earth, Lord Noyin had cold sweat. They are capable of killing supergalactic lifeforms, and more!

What sort of strength is this?

If he was in his own territory, Lord Noyin was not afraid, but this was Earth!

He only brought a part of his subordinates, and if he were to run into that person, things will not end well!

What should he do at this moment?

Run, of course!

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was on Earth at the moment to escape was the best possible plan.

Yet, when he heard that all of the stellar lifeforms and that powerful supergalactic lifeform had entered the wormhole to travel to other planets, Lord Noyin could not help but ponder.

If he destroyed the wormhole and exiled these Earthlings for eternity, what would happen?

Lord Noyin believed that with Earth's current technological level, if they were exiled, they could never return to Earth.

With such a calculation, Lord Noyin immediately decided. "Men, immediately destroy that wormhole!"

Following Lord Noyin's order, a group of his men immediately rushed to the wormhole that led to Whitehole 2. They planned to destroy the wormhole.

However, as soon as they arrived, they found a young man standing near the wormhole. He was holding a fruit in his hand while slowly chewing on it.

"Who goes there?"

The group of subordinates stopped as the minotaur leading the pack asked.

"Just a passerby, do what you want. Don't worry about me."

The young man replied casually, and continued to eat the fruit.

The subordinates looked at each other, as the minotaur waved his hand. "Kill him!"

"Yes, sir!"

Two of his subordinates stepped forward as they swung their blades at the youth.

The moment the blades struck the youth's head, sparks flew, and their blades shattered immediately.

"This…"

The two subordinates looked at each other, with a look of fear in their eyes.

Their blades were the standard swords of the Empire, made of fourth-grade alloys and were extremely sharp, and yet… they broke!

Was this person's head made out of higher-grade alloys?

"Why you attack me for no reason? Something wrong with you guys?"

The youth frowned and looked at the two men with an unhappy expression.

"We… We…"

The two men faltered.

At this moment, the minotaur said with trepidation. "My lord, we were blind, and offended you, please forgive us!"

The minotaur knew that he had misjudged things. The men brought by his lord were all peak galactic lifeforms, and coupled with the imperial war blade, how could any ordinary people resist them?

Yet, the person before him was unscathed after being hacked by the blade. So what did this mean? This meant that the youth was a supergalactic lifeform!

Looking across the entire planet Earth, there was only one supergalactic lifeform, and the minotaur immediately realized that the person before him was definitely the one mentioned by the spaceship AI Kaine, the supergalactic lifeform that had slaughtered many other supergalactic lifeforms.

Goodness!

Why did they run into him? Did he not go near the white hole to train?

Why was he there?

"Forgive them? They hacked at my head and I'm supposed to forgive them? If it weren't for my head being hard enough, they would have killed me just now. Forgive them?"

The young man was upset and threw away the fruit as he yelled. "Who are you and whose lackey are you? If you don't give me a satisfactory answer today, there will be no end to this!"

"My lord, we really didn't mean to offend!"

The minotaur was sweating. "Please forgive us, My lord! I beseech you!"

"Oh, please! Stop the bullsh*t!"

The youth was naturally Ling Jiu. He waved his hand and impatiently said, "So, what should we do about this matter of slashing at me?"

"My lord, what do you wish to do?"

The minotaur smiled wryly.

"One life for another, debts must always be repaid! Although you didn't kill me, you've caused serious damage to my tender soul."

Ling Jiu spoke indifferently. "I think you guys are somewhat capable. How about this, I could use a couple more gardeners at my place, so you guys can be my gardeners."

"Gardeners?"

The minotaur smiled bitterly. "My lord, this… this isn't right?"

They were subordinates of Lord Noyin. How could they be gardeners of a native on a faraway planet?

"Not right? Then die!"

Ling Jiu's voice was ice-cold.

"Milord…"

"Dir!"

Ling Jiu snorted coldly as he abruptly devoured them. The minotaur and a dozen of his men disappeared from where they stood.

The moment they reappeared, they had been swallowed into his Inner World, and they were reduced to ashes by the flames.

The burning power of the Inner World was extremely potent, and it did not take long for mere galactic-level lifeforms to be reduced to ashes.

Ling Jiu stood up and stepped forward, instantly appearing before Lord Noyin's spaceship.

"The alloy used to make this spaceship is a universal fifth-grade alloy. So obviously, it is from a Grand Unified Civilization." Leoux's voice rang out.

"A Grand Unified Civilization? Not bad, not bad!"

Ling Jiu's lit up. "Just happen we can hand this spaceship over to the various governments."

Since they had cracked the technology behind the Ayang-Braend's spaceship, China, the United States, and other countries had mastered elementary supergalactic civilization technology such as Elemental Mortification, energy shielding technology, and so on.

In order to master these technologies as soon as possible, China, the United States, and other countries had already established research bases in the lairs of the Greek, Nordic, Indian and Egyptian gods, using the time flow of these planets to focus on their research.

It could be said that all countries on Earth were trying their best to use the existing resources available to Earth, like wormholes, Arcana Trees, and the like to rise up.

Ling Jiu believed that if this spaceship was sent to the various countries, they should be very happy as there will be another spacecraft of an advanced civilization to study.

"I said that, with you protecting it, the development of Earth's civilization will be unparalleled." Leoux smiled and said, "So you, or me?"

"Let me."

Ling Jiu smiled stepped and in a step, teleported into the inside of the spaceship, appearing before the most powerful alien in the ship.

Right then, Lord Noyin was waiting for news from his subordinates. At the same time, to let the ship's AI continue to scan for the Flame Astral Behemoth's egg.

He had hoped that his men could destroy the wormhole and exile all of Earth's galactic lifeform and her only supergalactic lifeform so that they can never return.

Then, he could conquer Earth. With its many wormholes that connected to so many star systems, it was an excellent territorial planet.

How could he let such a good planet be occupied by a group of inferior and weak natives?

It should belong to him!

"I hope Yukas and his men work faster. As long as that wormhole is destroyed, Earth… shall be mine!"

Lord Noyin pondered silently and at this moment, an indifferent voice rang out. "This lord here, I think we should talk."

"Hmmm?"

Lord Noyin frowned slightly and looked at the source of the sound. A group of his subordinates on the bridge looked over too and saw Ling Jiu.

"Who are you?"

Lord Noyin's eye shrank as a look of horror appeared in his eyes. That person had come onto the bridge without him, his many subordinates, or the ship's AI noticing!

"My lord, he is Earth's supergalactic lifeform!"

The voice of the ship's AI sounded.

"What?!"

Chapter 348: Ursa Major Galaxy, Grand Duke of the Empire

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Across the entire Earth, there was only one person whom Lord Noyin feared the most. It was that supergalactic lifeform who had wiped out the gods and the Kryptonians.

A supergalactic lifeform!

In the Balkan Empire, stellar lifeforms were everywhere, and the life of a galactic lifeform was worse than that of a dog.

It could be said that stellar lifeforms and galactic lifeforms were cannon fodder, thugs, and guards.

Those with aspirations joined the imperial army, and if they were lucky enough to survive combat, they could be minor nobles.

Those without aspirations would join a high house and become bodyguards or guards.

In any case, their status would be very average.

However, once galactic lifeforms made another breakthrough and became supergalactic lifeforms, their status would change drastically.

The Balkan Empire commanded a vast region. It was in control of 52 galaxies and a territory that spanned eight million light-years, with a population in the trillions. Yet, a supergalactic lifeform was rare.

Therefore, all the supergalactic lifeforms were the noblest existences in the Balkan Empire.

It did not matter even if one was a downtrodden beggar or a nameless lowborn. As long as one became a supergalactic lifeform, one would immediately become a noble with at least the rank of an Earl, with dozens of planets as one's territory.

As a member of the Balkan imperial family, the purest of the Balkans, and also as the Empire's grand duke, Lord Noyin believed that he could kill any ordinary supergalactic lifeform.

However, the problem was, based on the information given by Kaine, many of the supergalactic lifeforms Ling Jiu killed were ancients that had cultivated by the white hole for tens of thousands of years. Even Lord Noyin did not think that he could kill such existences easily.

He might not be able to kill them himself, but Ling Jiu could.

This shows to a large extent that Ling Jiu was a very terrifying supergalactic lifeform, so how could Lord Noyin not be wary of him?

One needed to know that, in this trip, all the men he brought along were galactic lifeforms. He was the only supergalactic lifeform.

"He-He's that supergalactic lifeform on Earth?"

Lord Noyin stared at Ling Jiu, a look of fear flashing past his eyes.

"Yes, my lord!"

The spaceship AI answered.

"Just now… it was your people who attacked me?"

Ling Jiu also took a measure of Lord Noyin.

He had twin black horns on his head and wore a sanguine cape. His skin was unexpectedly fair, and if it were not for his horns that looked like goat horns, he would almost be no different from an Earthling.

"Attacked you?"

Lord Noyin squirmed, and immediately thought of the dozen or so men he had sent out and could not help but to growl. "Sir, what have you done with them?"

"Killed them of course," Ling Jiu said indifferently.

"Trespassing onto my planet without my permission is one crime; sending your subordinates to attack me for no reason is another. So tell me, how do you want to die?"

Hearing this, Lord Noyin's expression sank. "Sir, breaching your planet wilfully was indeed my mistake, and I can make amends now! As for those errand-runners, since you've killed them, so be it! I will leave this planet immediately, how about it?"

"You think you can come and leave as you please? Are you the owner of this place?"

Ling Jiu showed a look of disdain. "If you know what's good for you, surrender now, or else, I'll go wild!"

Hearing this, Lord Noyin was furious. He was the Grand Duke of the Balkan Empire, the uncle of the current reigning emperor. Wherever he went, there was no one who did not treat him with respect, who would dare to speak to him in such a manner in the empire?

Now, after coming to such a backwater planet, a nameless native dare to talk to him like this?!

This was unacceptable!

"Sir, you may not know who I am."

Lord Noyin suppressed the anger in his heart. "I hail from the Balkan Empire, and am the uncle of the current emperor!"

"The Balkan Empire? The heck is that?" Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

Hearing this, Lord Noyin almost went crazy. It was like literally talking to a wall. I already stated my identity, yet he is clueless about it.

Lord Noyin managed to endure the anger in his heart as he slowly said, "The Balkan Empire is the only master of the Ursa Major galaxy!"

"The territory of the Balkan Empire spans eight million light-years, and the intelligent beings under our rule are in the trillions…"

"That great?"

Ling Jiu was surprised. He knew about the Local Group a massive galaxy group which was formed by the Milky Way, the Andromeda galaxy, and the surrounding fifty or so galaxies, and it spanned 10 million light years in radius.

However, he did not know which galaxy group the Ursa Major galaxy belonged to.

"Ling Jiu, the Ursa Major galaxy group is the group of galaxies neighboring the Local Group. It has a diameter of eight million light-years, slightly smaller than that of the Local Group," Leoux explained.

"Meanwhile, the Balkan Empire is the Grand Unified Civilization that dominates the Ursa Major galaxy. This person here seemed to be the uncle of the current reigning emperor. He's of noble blood."

"Of noble blood indeed."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "So what? Since he has discovered Earth and the wormholes, he cannot be allowed to leave alive, or else our troubles will be endless."

"Are you going to kill him?"

Leoux chuckled and said, "Are you not afraid of courting vengeance from the Balkan Empire? You should know, they are a Grand Unified Civilization."

What was a Grand Unified Civilization?

Starting from a planetary civilization, to a stellar civilization, and then a galactic civilization to a supergalactic civilization, standing above a supergalactic civilization was a Grand Unified civilization, a civilization that could control a local group.

For such a civilization, when compared to a planetary civilization, it was simply an immovable behemoth.

If the latter were to seek revenge, who could stop it?

"I'm not! Don't I have you?"

Ling Jiu didn't care. "I don't care who the heck you are, you dare to intrude upon Earth, then you must be prepared to die!"

"Earthling, do you really want to make an enemy out of me?"

Lord Noyin's expression sank as his body exuded bursts of menacing aura.

"F*ck you! You already pissed all over my turf, if I do nothing about it, how can I survive in the future?"

Ling Jiu snorted coldly. "Cut the nonsense, how do you want to die?"

"What insolence!"

Lord Noyin nodded slightly. "Don't think because I give you an inch that I'm afraid of you, not like I've not killed supergalactic lifeforms before!"

"Heh, come on then."

The corners of Ling Jiu's mouth rose slightly. "Let me see how capable this imperial uncle of the Balkan Empire is. Listen, I'll be waiting for you outside."

As soon as his voice left, Ling Jiu quietly disappeared from the spaceship, and when he reappeared, he was already outside it.

This was after all a spaceship from a Grand Unified Civilization, and it was the product of the Balkan Empire's technology. It was better to keep it intact. It would be a shame if it was destroyed.

"Kaine, prepare the gravity bomb, and locked onto that damned native."

Lord Noyin said coldly. "If I am no match for him, immediately launch the gravity bomb, and blast him into atoms."

"Your command is my will, my lord!" the spaceship AI, Kaine said respectfully.

"Open the hatch!"

As the hatch opened, Lord Noyin led hundreds of his men out and came outside. At this moment, Ling Jiu was already waiting there.

"This native… so fast!"

Lord Noyin secretly increased his vigilance as he stepped forward and appeared before Ling Jiu. The wind bellowed as his cloak fluttered in the air.

"Sir, the great of the Balkan Empire is not an entity you can provoke.

Lord Noyin stared at Ling Jiu as he hissed coldly. "If you know your place, immediately…"

"Oh, cut the useless crap." Ling Jiu waved his hand. "Make your move!"

"You're too much!"

Lord Noyin let out a growl as he stepped forward with a bang, and the void shook violently.

The next second, following a shrill rip, Lord Noyin cut through the void and suddenly appeared before Ling Jiu.

Then, he slammed his iron fist toward Ling Jiu with overwhelming force!

Report chapter

Chapter 349: Uncharacteristic, Blood God Form

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Bring it on!"

Ling Jiu did not dodge or flinch as he casually stretched out his right fist to meet the attack. He had killed plenty of supergalactic lifeforms by now, and someone like Lord Noyin was not worthy of being taken seriously.

Baaaam!!

Both fists collided violently like two high-speed locomotives crashing into each other.

Following a thunderclap, a terrifying shock wave mixed with sound waves blasted out and swept across all directions.

"Sh*t!"

"Retreat!"

The hundreds of subordinates who followed Lord Noyin out of the spaceship sensed the terrifying power that erupted from the shock wave. As a result, their faces changed drastically, and they quickly retreated.

They were only galactic lifeforms, and they definitely could not survive the aftermath of a supergalactic lifeform battle. If they were hit, they would definitely die.

Fortunately, since they were galactic lifeforms, they were fast enough. They had already retreated more than a few kilometers away before the shock wave came sweeping over, and they hid in a safe zone.

"That's scary!"

The group of subordinates took a deep breath, and their eyes expressed joy as they saw that the blue sky behind them had disappeared. It had been replaced by a black hole instead.

Like a nuclear bomb, the violent shock wave blew the blue sky into a black hole, covering an area of several kilometers.

"How is the Lord?"

The men hurriedly looked at the center of the black hole. At this moment, another terrifying explosion burst out as another violent shock wave swept out again.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Immediately after, two black streams blasted out of the black hole. They constantly collided and pulled apart, rinsing and repeating the process.

In a few short breaths, the two black streams of light had collided dozens of times. Their speed was so fast that they were indistinguishable to the naked eye.

With every clash, they caused even more serious damage to the sky. Wherever they passed through, black holes were formed as violent gales raged.

The epicenter of each collision became a black hole, and these black holes were like the abyss, exuding terrifying darkness.

"Is this guy a native of such a remote planet? He can actually fight against our Lord on even footing."

"It's really hard to imagine that a freak like that could be born in such a remote area in the galaxy! It defies imagination!"

"Yeah…"

The subordinates were horrified, it was not that they were making a mountain of a molehill. It was just that Ling Jiu's strength had violated all laws of the universe.

As the saying goes, the sea breeds a whale, the rivers fish, and the ponds turtles.

The greatness of a land determined the greatness of the life it could birth, and the real powerhouses of such lands abounded. Compared with a prosperous area with advanced technology, what could a remote backwater produce?

Poor environment!

Without any conditions!

What sort of powerhouse could be bred?

However, Ling Jiu had obviously violated the laws of the universe. He was born in a remote backwater like Earth, yet he possessed such terrifying strength.

This was equivalent to a great whale popping out of a pond, how was that possible?

No matter how horrified the subordinates were, Ling Jiu and Lord Noyin still clashed. They were fighting from east to west, and from the south to the north.

In just half a minute, both sides had straddled hundreds of miles in all directions as shock waves swept across hundreds of miles, causing the skies to darken.

This shocking scene also frightened the lives on Earth. Although the two were in altitudes over 10,000 meters, the commotion they caused was too great. Each collision was like a thunder strike as the skies shattered in their wake.

This caused the denizens of Earth to panic as if Armageddon was nigh.

"What's happening in the skies above?"

"Is it the end of the world?"

The people on the ground were inexplicably frightened, as though catastrophe was imminent.

On the other hand.

After repeated collisions, the two sides finally stopped, as they looked at each other from a distance of hundreds of meters.

"So you are nothing but that," Lord Noyin said.

He had regained his confidence, as a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

He thought that Ling Jiu was very, very strong, at least a Level 8 or Level 9 supergalactic lifeform, or even an old antique that had lived for tens of thousands of years.

Against such an existence, even with the spaceship, was difficult as a top-level supergalactic lifeform represented the pinnacle of the lifeform.

Nevertheless, the battle earlier told him that Ling Jiu was not as strong as he thought the former was.

In that case… there was nothing to be afraid of!

"Human, if you only have this much strength, then I can only regretfully tell you that you… are destined to fall today!"

The corners of Lord Noyin's mouth raised, revealing a proud arc.

"And when you fall, this planet and everything on it shall be mine! I will kill every single one of you Earthlings. You lowly beings are unworthy of occupying this planet!"

"Heh, you actually got cocky."

Ling Jiu laughed.

He knew why his opponent was so uncharacteristic, and suddenly becoming so arrogant and boastful. He must have thought that he had got a grasp of Ling Jiu's strength.

He was not wrong.

The Ling Jiu he fought against was only Ling Jiu's true body, and his true body had only just taken the first crucial step and become a Level 1 supergalactic lifeform.

Although he possessed the Astral Flame Behemoth's 'Ultimate Physique', its level was still too low after all, and it was already commendable that he could stand on even footing with his foe.

To defeat him?

It was difficult.

"Cocky? No, no no! I am a heavenly noble, the Grand Duke of the Balkan Empire, and you are just a lowly native."

"Your life and death are in my hands, and if I want this planet, then it should be your honor."

"Heh, mewling before me earlier when you had no idea of my strength, and now, here you are spouting nonsense. Trash like you belongs in the bin!"

Ling Jiu shook his head slightly. "Whatever, just throw what you have at me, lest you claim I did not give you any chance later."

"You dare to run your mouth even when death stands before you. I hope you can still keep that smile on later."

Lord Noyin snorted coldly as the clothes on his body suddenly ripped apart, reduced to countless torn fragments as his bloodless skin was exposed.

Immediately afterward, a black fog rose out of Lord Noyin's body. The extremely dense, ink-like mist then enveloped him.

At the same time, the aura on his body grew and grew.

Boooom!

The black fog got thicker and thicker…

And the aura got stronger and stronger.

When the black fog had expanded to a radius of 10,000 meters, the aura exuding from the black fog had also reached its apex. Subsequently, the black fog no longer expanded and the aura no longer grew.

"Lowly native, I shall let you see the combat form of the Balkan royal family. Open your eyes wide and look. Across the entire universe, there are scant few… that are worthy enough to see my combat form!"

A piercing cry came from the mist and the next month, all of the black mist shrank back.

And a monster appeared on the spot.

With two goat's horns on his head…

Bat wings on his back…

And scales all over his body.

He had a human body with bat wings, blue-faced and menacing fangs, a hideous face, and a wingspan of more than 500 meters.

"This transformation… why does it look like that of Hiram from the matriculation camp? Ling Jiu frowned slightly.

"Hiram?"

Leoux was puzzled.

"When I was in the matriculation camp on Mars, I met a cadet called Hiram, and his Arcana was Vampiric Form."

Ling Jiu explained. "His transformation was almost exactly the same as this guy's. The only difference was Hiram was much smaller."

"Weird! How can you Earthlings look like this guy? Did someone from the Balkan Empire descend onto Earth long ago?" Leoux was surprised.

"Could be."

Ling Jiu nodded and did not straight away deny it. Even the Caius Titans had come to Earth, what else could not come?

He was already used to it.

"Lowly native, this is the combat form of the Balkan Empire's royal family, the Blood God form!"

Lord Noyon, now standing hundreds of meters tall, with a wingspan of 500 meters, suddenly said. "With my Blood God form, my body has become immortal!"

"My strength has increased by 500 fold, my speed a thousandfold, and I now have a new talent, Blood Flight, and I can ignore all physical attacks!"

"Native, tremble before me!"

"I shall let you know, even at the same level, there is a vast gulf between you and I!"

Chapter 350: Sealed for a Long Time, Tungsten Alloy Form Unleashed

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Strength increased by 500 fold!

Speed increased by 1,000 fold!

With a talent to boot!

Hearing Lord Noyin's arrogant proclamations, Ling Jiu was speechless. "Being so arrogant with just this bit of skill, who gave him that courage?"

"Of course he himself."

Leoux laughed and said. "The universe is very big, so big it defies imagination. Be it the Milky Way, the Andromeda System, or even the Local Galaxy group, or the Ursa Major Galaxy Group, they are all nothing but backwaters of the universe."

"In this small pond of a universe, what sort of powerhouse can be bred? Don't you Chinese have a saying, when there're no tigers in the mountains, the monkey reigns supreme?"

"In this small cosmic pond without any powerhouses, the monkeys of the Balkan Empire reigned supreme. With a small stage, their horizons are naturally narrow too. They had not met their match in this point, so they think themselves invincible."

"That may be so, but I still don't quite agree with you. What do you mean that powerhouses can't be born in a backwater? We, the people of Earth aren't half bad, you know?"

Ling Jiu rolled his eyes. "Even if you don't count me in, there are others on Earth that are stronger than this guy."

"Emperor Might's physical attribute index is as high as 10,000, and Meng Lijun's Tungsten Alloy Form, his physical attribute index can be continuously improved as he levels up."

"Hahaha, clearly, you Earthlings are an exception to the rule!"

Leoux laughed and said, "The Earthlings' potential is great, and their future achievements will be beyond the Balkan Empire.

"Of course, potential is just that, potential. Whether a race can rise or not is like whether a sapling can grow into a towering tree. There are many factors associated with it."

"That's more like it."

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. The potential of humankind on Earth was indeed terrifying, and at the very least, this powerful pure-blooded royal family member of the Balkan Empire, was incomparable to them.

Emperor Might may be strong with his fixed physical attribute index of 10,000, but it cannot be further improved, but Meng Lijun's Tungsten Alloy Form was totally freakish.

A Level 1 Arcanist, 3 times.

A Level 2 Arcanists, 10 times.

A Level 3 Arcanists, 30 times.

A Level 4 Arcanist, 100 times.

By that analogy, in theory at least, once he reaches Level 9 Arcanist, Meng Lijun's strength could reach 10,000 times. And as for the strength Meng Lijun could unleash after reaching stellar, galactic, or even supergalactic lifeform, no one knew.

His potential was limited and had only reached Level 5 thus far.

"Although Meng Lijun is just a Level 5 Arcanist, I'm a supergalactic lifeform. If I were to use the Tungsten Alloy Form, how strong would I get?"

Ling Jiu suddenly felt curious. After replicating the Ultimate Physique from the Flame Astral Behemoth, as well as gaining powerful abilities like the Inner World, Time Stop, Blink, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar, Ling Jiu had forgotten about the Tungsten Alloy Form.

To be honest, the Tungsten Alloy Form's boost was unable to keep up with the changes in his strength, so he had gradually forgotten about it.

In fact, many Arcanas had been gradually forgotten by Ling Jiu, such as the Shadowform, Gravity Arcana, Five Element Manipulation, Shrinking, Super Tremors, Super Transformation, and the like.

The stronger he got, these Arcana could not keep up with him, so he could only shelf them and put them away. Even his own Arcana, the Replication Arcana had not been used for a long time now as there were simply no Arcanas that Ling Jiu had deigned to replicate.

"You are indeed strong, and even the appearance of your combat form is very powerful and domineering."

Looking at Lord Noyin's proud face, Ling Jiu smiled a little. "It just so happen I, too, have a combat form. How about you give it a taste!"

Lord Noyin raised his eyebrows with a look of disdain. "Just every trick you have, but regretfully, I have to tell you no matter what you transform into, you are nothing but a parlor trick before my combat form!"

"Is that so?"

Ling Jiu smiled and quietly activated the Tungsten Alloy Form.

WOOOSHHH!!

His clothes instantly disintegrated into countless pieces, and immediately after, Ling Jiu expanded like a pumped-up balloon.

At the same time, his body quickly turned to silver… and when the transformation stopped, Ling Jiu had already turned into a silver body standing more than 20 meters tall, exuding a dazzling metallic luster, much like a robot coated in mercury.

"This is…"

Seeing Ling Jiu's transformation, Lord Noyin's pupils shrank as he got a bad feeling coming from Ling Jiu's body.

"This power… seems rather strong!"

Ling Jiu clenched his fists and felt the changes in his body. "Leoux, can you scan my current physical attribute index?"

"Let me have a look!"

Leoux quickly scanned, and after a while, it was shocked from ear to ear.

"Bloody hell! Your physical attribute index in this state is amazing! Your strength index is as high as a million times, your stamina index is two million times higher, and your defense index is 5 million times."

"The other attributes… on the other hand, are terrible!"

"That outrageous?"

Ling Jiu too was shocked.

He knew that the Tungsten Alloy Form was a powerful Arcana with great potential, but he never expected it to be broken to such an extent!

One million times the strength!

Two million times the stamina!

Five million times the defense!

These three indexes… were actually stronger than the Ultimate Physique of the Flame Astral Behemoth. That's quite outrageous, no?

"Ling Jiu, where did you get this Arcana? Did you replicate it from someone else?"

Leoux was very surprised. "Why have I never seen you use this ability?"

"Yeah, it was replicated."

Ling Jiu nodded. "But all this time, as my strength improved, this Arcana has been somewhat not up to the task, so I rarely use it."

Ling Jiu gave a detailed introduction to the Tungsten Alloy Form, and Leoux found it incredible as it heard it.

"No wonder you rarely use this broken ability. It turned out to be a progressive ability. This is rather similar to the characteristics of an Apex Golden Saiyan Ape Warrior.

"The only difference is that an Apex Golden Saiyan Ape warrior's physical attribute index is very high to start with at 1 million times, and this ability is only 3 times. But this Arcana has very deep potential, and you can make good use of it in the future."

"That's for sure."

Ling Jiu nodded a little. The Tungsten Alloy Form's strength index was now a million times, and was no inferior to the Flame Astral Behemoth. Of course, he would use it.

Plus, Ling Jiu really wanted to know, with his strength continuing to increase, to what extent the attribute index of the Tungsten Alloy Form would reach?

"Time for talk is over, let's fight!"

Ling Jiu looked at Lord Noyin, whose expression had become grim, as his voice was steely.

"Do it, let me see if your combat form is stronger, or mine is."

"Native, you will regret this!"

Lord Noyin flapped its wings, stirring the air around it as he transformed into a stream of black light and blasted at Ling Jiu.

He then lifted his fist and struck. This punch was fast and brutal, with its momentum being pushed to the limit, that even the air burst.

"Just where I wanted you!"

Ling Jiu retracted his smile as he did not dodge and stepped out with his left foot forward, his right foot back, sinking his waist as his right fist struck out like a viper.

Boom!

It was as if Mars had struck Earth.

The fist of the two crashed together and the violent force set off a devastating shock wave that spread out in all directions.

In an instant, an entire radius of tens of kilometers was engulfed, and this area instantly turned into a black hole.

At this moment, the world seemed to have lost its voice as only the roar of the manifested sound waves rushed towards the distance.

And then both sides collided again!

"URGH!"

The moment the two fists collided, Lord Noyin felt a surge of power traveling up his fist. This power was terrifying, so terrifying that he had no means to take it at all.

At this critical moment, he hurriedly activated his talent, Blood Flight as he turned into a mass of black-red blood light to vent all of the power out.

Then, he took his human form once again hundreds of meters away as he looked at Ling Jiu with horror. "Your combat form… why is it so terrifying?"

Chapter 351: Hilarious, Clean Sweep

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lord Noyin was shocked!

After transforming into his Blood God Form, his power had increased by 500 times, and this was an absolutely overwhelming advantage, allowing him to defeat many opponents of equal footing.

However, just now, the moment he clashed with Ling Jiu, Lord Noyin felt an unparalleled power many times stronger than his.

This horrified Lord Noyin. Across the entire Ursa Major Galaxy Group, the Blood God Form of the Balkan Empire's royal family was absolutely among the best. A 500-fold increase in power, who could fight against it?

And now, an even more powerful form had appeared in such a remote corner of the universe. How could this be possible?

"It's not that my combat form is too strong, but it's yours that is too weak. Just a mere 500-fold increase in strength and you're already boasting like this? Mine is a million-fold stronger, shouldn't I boast straight into the heavens then?"

Ling Jiu flicked his fingers. He had not said something yet. His Golden Saiyan Ape avatar's attribute index is a horrifying 15 million-fold.

Be it strength, speed, defense, stamina, resilience and other attributes, are all increased by 15 million times. This was enough for him to boast across the universe, no?

"What? A million times?"

Lord Noyin's expression changed drastically. "How can you power increase be so powerful?"

"This is impossible! It's impossible for a race with such terrifying increase to appear in this remote corner of the universe. Yes, impossible! You're lying!"

A million-fold increase!

This was the terrifying increase that only a Flame Astral Behemoths can have!

What was a Flame Astral Behemoth?

That is one of the apex bloodlines in the universe, the astral behemoth that can grow into the strongest lifeform in the universe upon reaching adulthood.

It was because of their strength, the Flame Astral Behemoth can become a renowned astral behemoth in the universe.

But due to the same reason, because of their strength, they were rare.

The Flame Astral Behemoths were very few in numbers.

And those terrifying races that were no weaker than the Flame Astral Behemoth… were equally rare. If they were placed across the entire universe, they'll be even rarer.

Morever, which of these lifeforms were not famous? None of them were called Earthlings that's for sure!

"Lying? Haha!"

Ling Jiu was not inclined to explain. "Whether I'm lying or not is not important. The more important thing is that you will soon die, and Earth shall be your grave."

"Kill me? Hilarious."

Lord Noyin spat coldly. "I admit that you are very strong, but I have the Blood Flight ability, you can forget about killing me!"

"Your Blood Flight may be nice, and once you take that form you are immune to any physical attacks. However, what if you are struck before you use it?"

The corners of Ling Jiu's mouth raised up a little, as he slowly uttered two words. "Time Stop!"

WOOOSHHH!!

A mysterious aura instantly enveloped Lord Noyin, and his entire person looked like have his nerves frozen as he stood there motionless.

"DIE!"

Ling Jiu stepped forward and suddenly appeared before Lord Noyin as his fist slammed square against Lord Noyin's head.

KRAK!!

Lord Noyin's head instantly exploded as his brain matter burst out and blood spattered all over.

Immediately after, Ling Jiu dispelled the Time Stop, but Lord Noyin was no longer to use his Blood Flight to ward off the attack.

Because, he was dead!

How could a dead person use their abilities?

"It turns out that the ability that you were so confident of were useless in the end."

Ling Jiu waved his hand and sent Lord Noyin's body into his Inner World, letting the boundless flames immolate it as he looked at the hundreds of Lord Noyin's men.

When the two initially clashed, these subordinates had retreated dozens of kilometers away. At this moment, when they saw their lord killed, all of them were horrified.

"Our Lord… is actually dead!"

"What should we do now?"

"He's looking over here! That Earthling is looking over here! Is he going to kill us?"

"No, no! I don't want to die…"

The subordinates trembled to the core and panicked. They wanted to flee, but fear made them afraid to act rashly.

They were afraid that if they were to make a slightest movement, they would suffer a lightning strike from Ling Jiu, and die on the spot like their lord did.

"Come over here!"

Ling Jiu beckoned them.

"He wants us to go over?"

"What should we do? Do we go over? Or… we go over?"

The subordinates did not dare to defy Ling Jiu's order, and all flew over. Ling Jiu was satisfied with them knowing their place, so he said. "Your lord is dead, so do you lot want to live or die?"

"My lord, have mercy!"

"My lord, spare us our lives!"

"Milord…"

All of the subordinates fell onto their knees as they kowtowed and begged frantically for mercy. If they could live, who wanted to die?

"It looks like you lot want to live. That's good, Even ants cherish their lives, so much less you lot?"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "How about this, I'll give you a chance to live, but it all depends on whether you can grasp it or not?"

"My lord, please tell us!"

"I have an orchard, and I want to invite you lot to be my gardeners there. I wonder if you lot are willing? I always treat people with virtue, if you don't want to, I won't force you either." Ling Jiu said.

"Yes! We do!"

"We are willing to serve you to the death!"

The subordinates quickly nodded in agreement.

"Very good, in you go then."

Ling Jiu waved his hand and sent all of them into the floating island. "This is my orchard, and your task into plant fruit trees."

"Remember, don't you dare be lazy! Although I treat people by virtue, but if anyone dares to laze about, I won't mind turning him into fertilizer to nourish my orchard!"

These subordinates were all galactic lifeform, and it would be a pity to kill them. Yet they were not worthy enough to subdue and brainwash them, so he might as well just toss them into it.

Ling Jiu believed that, if they were smart, they would not dare to be lazy.

"Where is this place?"

"Blood God above, what rich Dark Bio-energy!"

"Blood God above, if I were to train here, I am absolutely confident to be able to break through into a supergalactic lifeform."

"Train? That person sent us in here isn't for us to train. Let's quickly find the saplings and plant them, otherwise we might not even know how we die!"

"Yeah!"

The hundreds of subordinates got busy as Ling Jiu smiled and called the Nine-headed Snake over.

"Nine-headed Snake, look after them. If they dare to be lazy, or train in secret, kill them for me, understand?"

"Yes, master!"

The Nine-headed Snake spat its tongue out respectfully. After a period of cultivation, it had completely transformed into the true body of the Nine-headed Snake, and its strength returned to its peak. It was now a proper level 8 supergalactic lifeform, and was just a step way from breaking through.

Letting it guard the floating island was simply overkill.

Ling Jiu exited the floating island and looked at the spaceship overhead. At this moment, the spaceship had turned into a stream of light and rushed out of Earth.

Clearly, it was going to flee!

"Escaping? If I were to let you escape, I won't have any face left on Earth."

Ling Jiu stepped out and appeared behind the ship, immediately after, he took a second step and reappeared inside the ship.

"Leoux, the rest is up to you!"

"Leave it to me!"

Leoux transformed into a black stream of light and flew out of Ling Jiu's hand as it entered the spacecraft. Not long later, the ship stopped in outer space.

"What's happened?"

"Why… why can't I control the ship?"

The spacecraft's AI, Kaine was shocked. As the spacecraft's AI, everything in the ship was under its control.

In other words, the spaceship was its body.

And now, it could no longer control its body.

This was the first time it had encountered such a situation. Even if Kaine was an AI, and did not have any human emotions, it was still rather surprised.

"A mere low-level AI dare to be presumptuous before me. Die!"

"Ah!"

A moment later, Kaine's voice completely disappeared and was replaced by Leoux's.

"Ling Jiu, I have complete control of the ship."

"Very good!"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "I'll give you two tasks. First, summarize the technology contained in this spacecraft and sent it to the Chinese government."

"Second, figure out the purpose of this spacecraft's arrival on Earth, as well as the detailed information about the Balkan Empire, the more detailed the better."

"OK!."

Leoux was very efficient. It only took ten minutes to complete the first task, "Ling Jiu, the technology has been sent!"

"Good job!"

Ling Jiu nodded with satisfaction. As a Chinese, he of course wished that China would be stronger.

So when he gets alien technologies, he would often first give it to the Chinese government, not the United States or other countries.

"Did you figure out the purpose of this spacecraft coming to Earth?" Ling Jiu asked again.

"That guy just now was called Lord Noyin, and his full name is Noyin Balkan. He is indeed the uncle of the current reigning Balkan Emperor."

Leoux quickly replied. "He owned 7,653 planets as his domain, and is a very distinguished personae in the empire, truly a man above the masses."

"Right! He had came to Earth in search of the Flame Astral Behemoth's egg."

Chapter 352: Brother Meng Eats the Fruit, a Final Breakthrough

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Looking for the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth?"

Leoux's words reminded Ling Jiu that he had nearly forgotten about the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth that he left behind on Whitehole 1.

"How long has the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth been on Whitehole 1, Leoux?" He felt a little embarrassed.

"We went to Whitehole 1 and put the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth there on July 7th, 2059. It's August 9th, 2074 today," Leoux replied. "That is to say, fifteen years and 26 days have passed on Earth. The time flow on Whitehole 1 is one hundred and thirty times that of Earth, and so the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth has been on Whitehole 1 for exactly one thousand nine hundred and fifty-nine years, three months, and four days."

"One thousand nine hundred and fifty-nine years? I can't believe that we have left it on Whitehole 1 for so long. This is…" Ling Jiu was a little embarrassed. "I wonder how it is now and if it could still remember me."

"Why don't you take a look?"

"Why not?" Ling Jiu nodded. "But I still have stuff to do before going there."

"What is it?"

Birch Wood Village, Chang'an Base City.

Birch Wood Village was a villa-only, upscale neighborhood where only the rich and the arcanists could afford to live in Chang'an Base City.

In the garden of Zone A's villa No.13, Meng Lijun was watering his Arcana tree.

Since the government called on the people to start planting Arcana trees, Meng Lijun, an Arcanist, had wasted no time in cleaning up the garden to plant Arcana saplings.

After half a year, the Arcana saplings had grown sturdily under his care, becoming taller day by day. Now, they had begun to produce Gene Arcana.

The Arcana trees produced little Gene Arcana, so Meng Lijun did not want to keep the Gene Arcana to himself. He often came to the garden with his two-year-old daughter. He knew he had hit the ceiling in his self-cultivation and saw no chance of going any higher, so he hoped to lay a strong foundation for his daughter instead.

Meng Lijun believed that as long as his daughter was immersed in Gene Arcana from a young age, her physique would improve, and she could awaken her Arcana later.

Besides, experts had mentioned on TV that the Gene Arcana on Earth was becoming increasingly richer. Humans were getting stronger and stronger physically, and the probability of awakening Arcanas was climbing in a linear fashion.

The competition would only get more intense in the future, and Meng Lijun did not want his daughter to fall behind from the get-go. So, these few Arcana trees were important to him.

"You really care for the plants, eh, Brother Meng?" A greeting suddenly rang out.

"Yeah, I'm watering them," Meng Lijun instinctively replied.

However, after that, he found the voice familiar yet strange.

He looked up and saw a young man standing and smiling at him not far away.

"C-Captain Ling Jiu?" Meng Lijun was taken aback. "How-How come you're here?"

Meng Lijun could not believe his eyes. Since he and Ling Jiu had only worked together for a short time, they had rarely seen each other.

Later, as Ling Jiu got stronger and his status got higher, they never contacted each other again. He thought that Ling Jiu had forgotten him.

He did not expect Ling Jiu to visit. This was really…

"I was passing by, and I thought why not drop by to see you."

Ling Jiu smiled, pointing at the thriving Arcana trees with a smile. "It looks like you really take good care of these Arcana trees."

"You bet. These are my babies." Meng Lijun put down the watering pot. "Please come inside. You are my VIP now. It's my pleasure to have you here."

"That's so kind of you, but I'm still who I am, just like before."

When Ling Jiu entered the villa, Meng Lijun's wife was at a loss the moment she recognized Ling Jiu. Luckily, Ling Jiu came to her rescue.

"Relax, Mrs. Meng. I'm just dropping by to see Brother Meng. I'll go in a while."

Even so, Meng Lijun's wife still served him some tea and fruit.

"Have some tea, Captain Ling."

"Thank you."

Ling Jiu took a sip. "How have you been doing all these years, Brother Meng?"

"I have been doing great. We followed you and made a lot of money back then," Meng Lijun said with emotion. "Later, disaster struck Lantian Base City, and my entire family perished. We stayed in the wilderness, escaping the catastrophe. But we got disheartened and came to Chang'an Base City. I spent the money I made in the previous years to buy some real estate. I have been living here in retirement ever since. Everyone started to have their own families, and now, I spend time with my children and go back to the office to train new recruits when I have time. It's a laid-back lifestyle."

"Glad to hear that."

Next, the two of them chatted for a while. As they mentioned the other members of the Tempest Squad and the Dragon Squad, they learning about the situation of a few others.

Before leaving, Ling Jiu took out a Dimensional Pocket.

"Captain Ling, this is…"

"There are thirty Casmodor fruits here. An ordinary person can become a stellar being just by consuming one fruit. Please distribute three to each family."

Ling Jiu then teleported away as he finished speaking.

"The Casmodor divine tree?"

"One Casmodor fruit is enough to make a stellar being?" It knocked the socks off Meng Lijun. He could not believe what he had heard. "Th-There-There's such a magical fruit?"

"Where is Mr. Ling, honey?"

Just then, Meng Lijun's wife came out with their son.

"He left," said Meng Lijun absentmindedly.

"Left? Why didn't you ask him to have dinner?" Meng Lijun's wife complained. "He came all the way here. You should have asked him to stay. He is the famous Ling Jiu!"

Meng Lijun shook his head with a forced smile. Ignoring his wife, he opened the Dimensional Pocket and saw 30 fruits that were as large as durians.

He took one Casmodor fruit out cautiously and ate it with excitement.

He had never doubted Ling Jiu's words nor was he worried that Ling Jiu would harm him. The gap between them was so great that it would be unthinkable for Ling Jiu to want to deceive or harm him.

Half an hour later, Meng Lijun was suspended in the air, feeling a powerful energy surging inside him. His strength had increased multiple times, and he could not hold back his excitement.

"An Ultimate Arcanist! I have finally become an Ultimate Arcanist! I didn't know that I would one day become an Ultimate Arcanist too."

His wife was even more agog than him. "H-Honey, you-you've become…"

"Yeah, honey, I've finally become somebody thanks to Captain Ling. I couldn't have done this without Captain Ling."

After a long time, the couple calmed down. Just as Meng Lijun took out his mobile phone to make a call, his wife asked, "What are you doing, honey?"

"I'm calling Chen Feng and the others to come over for the fruits," Meng Lijun said without thinking.

His wife gritted her teeth hesitantly.

"Honey, there are so many of those fruits here. Can you keep one for my brother?"

"Don't even think about it."

Meng Lijun glared at her. "Captain Ling said, three fruits are to be given to each family. I have to hand over the remaining twenty-seven to Captain Chen and the others. You better perish the thought of getting an extra. Besides, we and our daughter have one each. I will make sure that you two eat it in front of me. Are you thinking of giving one to your smart-aleck brother? If he were to become a stellar being, I don't know how many people would suffer because of him."

"I was just asking. Do you really have to say that? Who am I to say otherwise since it's Ling Jiu's orders?"

"It's just so you know."

Chapter 353: Revisit, Pandora

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Leoux, what do you think I should do with the Casmodor fruits?"

Ling Jiu asked as he was on the way to Whitehole 1.

The Casmodor divine tree Sapling Ling had been staying on the Floating Island, nourished by the richest Dark Bio-energy there. Over the years, it has produced several batches of fruits, which cumulatively, were 5,000 in Ling Jiu's hands.

Five Casmodor fruits…

This was not a small number. It would be too wasteful to leave them to rot. After all, these fruits were enough to create 5,000 stellar beings.

In contrast, after several years of development, Earth had only produced less than a hundred stellar beings. So producing 5,000 stellar beings was a high number.

"Are you thinking of using them to strengthen Earth's strength?"

Leoux knew what Ling Jiu was thinking. "Then give them out."

"Give them out?" Ling Jiu nodded. "I have the same thought too. Instead of letting the fruits rot in my hands, I might as well give them out. But the question is how to do it. I have to study it carefully, and I can't let the fruits fall into the wrong hands."

"It is simple." Leoux chortled. "You can conduct a test similar to us, the Emissians, in warrior selection—only those who pass the test will get the fruit."

"Conduct a test? This sounds good to me." Ling Jiu nodded vigorously. "Do you have any ideas on how to do that?"

"This is also simple." Leoux grinned. "We, the Emissians, temper the warriors' mind by creating a mind-tempered training room. The training room has equipment that interferes with the brain, and it can even create various illusions to temper the warrior's thinking in all aspects."

"Very well, let's do it." Ling Jiu could not wait. "Build this training room immediately. We will use the test to give out the Casmodor fruits."

"Things are simple. Just leave it to intelligent life," Leoux said. "Give me a moment. I will create an intelligent life now and build the lab."

"Creating an intelligent life? Forget about it." Ling Jiu waved his hand. "Isn't there a ready-made one?"

"A ready-made one?"

Ling Jiu came to Pandora.

Just like before, Pandora had seemingly not changed one bit. The only difference was that a school had been built there—it was Earth's renowned school: Pandora Institute.

Pandora had a high concentration of Gene Arcana. Major governments and Arcana combines had jointly built a school there. Then they recruited qualified students to receive training there.

There had been tens of thousands of students attending the school, and all of them had one common characteristic: their Arcanas had not been awakened.

Governments of various countries wanted to know if people who had not awakened Arcana would awaken their Arcana when there was long-term exposure to an Arcana-rich environment.

The answer was affirmative.

People would definitely awaken their Arcana under long-term Arcana nourishment.

Batch after batch of students had been sent there, awakened, and then sent away.

The school's graduation criteria were simple: Arcana-awakening.

Any student who had awakened their Arcana could graduate.

Therefore, Pandora Institute had gradually changed from an experimental facility to an Arcanist training institute, continuously producing Arcanists for humanity.

Such a school was undoubtedly of great importance. To put things into perspective, there was a large population on Earth, yet few could awaken their Arcana.

Those who could awaken their Arcana would rise to the top, and those who failed would plunge into hell.

Such polarization was the fate of humans.

Meanwhile, Pandora Institute was giving countless children, who had failed to awaken their Arcana, a chance.

Pandora Institute had only been established for a short time, yet it had become a sought-after institution. Parents were scrambling to send their children to Pandora Institute.

In fact, similar schools were springing up like mushrooms.

With the discovery of more and more wormholes and habitable planets with Gene Arcana, governments and Arcana combines were trying to utilize these planets.

They built schools, training camps, research, and experimental bases, and even businesses as well as prisons.

Ling Jiu came to the familiar sinkhole and found 9527. "Long time no see, 9527."

"Long time no see, Ling Jiu." 9527 revealed itself. There was a hint of consolation in its otherwise stiff expression. "I can see that you have the mothership's endorsement. Am I right?"

"You bet." Ling Jiu nodded with a smile. "Come out and say hello, Leoux."

"Say hello? I made 9527, for God's sake. It should be the one who greets me," Leoux said faintly and flew out of Ling Jiu's wrist.

9527 saw Leoux and bowed. "Greetings to you, Father."

"Rise." There was satisfaction in Leoux's eyes. "9527, you've done a good job. I will give you a body as reward."

"Thank you, Father." 9527 was overjoyed.

"You deserve it," Leoux said. A black sphere appeared with the wave of its hand. "This is a body specially made for intelligent life by our Emissian civilization. You can feel everything that organic life can feel—hunger, pain, ups, and downs—with this body. Besides, you can also get rid of this research ship and go anywhere. You can even practice self-cultivation if you want to."

"There's such a body?" Ling Jiu was in disbelief.

"Of course, there is." Leoux broke into a faint smile. "An intelligent life is also a living being. It also has its own emotions, desires, and aspirations. Nevertheless, such intelligent life is artificial life, after all, and differs from natural life. So it has significant limitations. Hence, the body of intelligent life comes into the picture to eliminate these limitations. Lacking a sea of consciousness aside, there is no difference between the bodies of intelligent life and that of natural life."

"That is interesting. Amazing." Ling Jiu was amazed, and he urged 9527, "Come and try this body. Let me see what is so special about this body, 9527."

"Thank you, Father." 9527 bowed to Leoux again. Then it faded into a stream of light before it disappeared into the black sphere. The black sphere changed shape as if it was liquid into the form of a human.

"Changed into a human?" Ling Jiu was startled.

"This body stores 8,653,895,387 types of body structure. So it can change into 8,653,895,387 types of body," Leoux explained. "The body of a human is one of them."

"This is unbelievable," Ling Jiu exclaimed. However, he still felt perplexed. "You should have such a body yourself. Why have I not seen it before?"

"The Leoux is my body," Leoux said. "There is nothing more suitable for me than the Leoux."

"All right then." Ling Jiu nodded, not wanting to harp on this question. "First of all, congratulations on getting your physical body and completely becoming an independent lifeform, 9527."

"Thank you." 9527, who was now in a human form, thanked Ling Jiu and looked thrilled.

"In fact, the purpose of my visit this time is to solicit your help," Ling Jiu said. "Let me explain."

Ling Jiu told 9527 about the setting up of a test, and 9527 happily agreed. "Piece of cake. You can count on me."

Hauling Stars, Pushing Planets

Ling Jiu brought the 9527 spacecraft, as well as 9527, to Earth and allowed 9527 to set up the test program.

After that, Ling Jiu left and arrived at his first stop, Whitehole 1.

Having left the Flame Astral Behemoth's egg on Whitehole 1 for 1,959 years, Leoux believed that it should have hatched by now.

It was likely wreaking havoc on Whitehole 1 right then, so Ling Jiu was eager to check it out.l

"I have detected the Flame Astral Behemoth and locked its position, Ling Jiu."

"How about Emperor Might and Vulcan? Are they alright?"

"They are all alive."

"Glad to know. I was worried that they might have bumped into it and been killed by the Flame Astral Behemoth. All right, let's check out the Flame Astral Behemoth first."

The next second, he teleported near a volcano.

This volcano that stood in the middle of an endless desert was massive. It was dozens of times larger than huge and dozens of times larger than Olympus Mons on Mars.

But unlike Olympus Mons, it was apparently an active volcano.

Thick, billowing smoke and ash were rising from the volcano spreading in all directions.

"Is the Flame Astral Behemoth here?" Ling Jiu arrived above the volcano.

The billowing smoke and volcanic ash bounced away as he got closer.

"That's right," Leoux replied.

"Is it hiding within the volcano? That fits the behavior of a Flame Astral Behemoth. Let's check it out."

Ling Jiu nodded and jumped into the volcano.

For an ordinary person, entering an active volcano was as good as suicide.

If the extreme temperate did not kill Ling Jiu, the billowing smoke and choking volcanic ash would.

Yet, Ling Jiu was not afraid. With his current strength, he would survive a plunge into the sun's surface, more so magma.

He dived all the way down and soon descended to the deepest part of the volcano, where magma was constantly bubbling at incredibly high temperatures.

There was a giant beast resembling a male lion but covered with flaming scales. It had a pair of wings that were covered in the same flaming scales on its back, as well as nine spiral horns. The beast lay in the hot magma.

It was purring loudly and stirring magma all over the place as it slept.

"It looks badass." Ling Jiu could not help but exclaim.

"It doesn't just look badass," Leoux said, "but it is also a Level 7 super-clustered being. With the Flame Astral Behemoth's strength, it can beat any ordinary-apex super-clustered being without breaking a sweat."

"Indeed! It is not a Flame Astral Behemoth for nothing."

Ling Jiu exclaimed and stepped out of the hidden dimension.

The Flame Astral Behemoth had keen senses and immediately sensed Ling Jiu the moment he exited the hidden dimension.

A pair of vicious eyes larger than cabs locked on Ling Jiu instantly.

However, after it saw Ling Jiu's face, the viciousness in its eyes disappeared and was replaced by excitement.

"M-Master!"

The Flame Astral Behemoth roared twice before a crisp and pleasant rang in Ling Jiu's mind.

"A female?" Ling Jiu was startled.

"It sure looks like it is a female Flame Astral Behemoth." Leoux chortled. "You would hardly associate it with a Flame Astral Behemoth just from her voice alone. Her appearance is simply too badass."

Ling Jiu forced a smile and looked at the Flame Astral Behemoth. "I am sorry. I am late, Flame Astral Behemoth."

"I have been waiting for you for a long time. I thought you abandoned me." The Flame Astral Behemoth wept with joy.

She burst into tears and plunged into Ling Jiu's arms, rubbing her head against his chest.

It was a bizarre sight as the Flame Astral Behemoth was over ten thousand meters tall, and her head was as massive as a ten-story building. It just looked incredibly weird when she nuzzled her head against Ling Jiu's chest.

To comfort the Flame Astral Behemoth, Ling Jiu deactivated his Size Reduction Arcana, and his body returned to normal size.

Swish!

He became a 30,000-meter giant in the blink of an eye.

Whumpf!

He suddenly became so tall that his head broke through the volcano's dome above. Massive rocks fell and splashed into the magma lake below.

"Boohoo… Master! Boohoo!"

The Flame Astral Behemoth consequently snuggled up to Ling Jiu's chest.

She only calmed down after a long while. She then followed Ling Jiu out of the volcano and stepped outside.

"How about I give you a name, Flame Astral Behemoth?" Ling Jiu asked.

"Okey-dokey!"

"How about you use my surname, Ling, and Flame from your name, as in Flame Astral Behemoth, from now on?"

"Flame Ling? My name is Flame Ling! Yeah, I have a name now!"

Flame Ling was as excited as Ling Jiu was because she finally had a name.

It was clear that Flame Ling was a cheerful and extroverted girl. She might have been a Flame Astral Behemoth on the outside, but deep down, she had the heart of a twelve- or thirteen-year-old girl.

She had youth, vigor, and vitality—it was hard to imagine that such a cheerful and cute "little girl" was over a thousand years old.

"Is there any ideal place for Flame to practice self-cultivation, Leoux?"

"The Flame Astral Behemoths feed on stars. The most ideal place for them is none other than the core of a star," Leoux replied. "You just need to find a star and let her absorb its energy."

"Are there stars around here?"

"The closest star to Whitehole 1 is about five light-years away. But the gravity of the white hole there is infinitely low. The white hole has little effect on it, and the time flow is anything but fast."

Ling Jiu frowned. A faster time flow was helpful in self-cultivation. The aforementioned star was close to Whitehole 1, but its flow of time was too slow for it to be an ideal place for self-cultivation.

"Are there other ideal stars?"

"Nope." Leoux shook its head. "A white hole is a celestial body that continuously ejects energy particles. Theoretically, it is almost impossible for other celestial bodies to exist around a white hole. Any celestial bodies that approach a white hole are mostly wandering planets. Stars have enormous masses with strong gravitational pulls. There are few wandering planets, and even fewer stars can wander to the vicinity of a white hole. At least, there are no stars near the eight white holes that are connected to Earth."

"In other words, there is no ideal star for Flame to practice self-cultivation, right?"

"There is none, but I can haul the nearest star over."

"Umm… did you just say 'haul'? How is that even possible?"

"Why not?" Leoux broke into a smile. "A star is just a celestial body with a higher mass and a higher temperature. For lower-level civilizations, its high temperature makes it unapproachable. But for higher-level civilizations, it is a source of fuel."

"In fact, you can now land on the surface of the Sun and absorb its energy to improve your strength."

"I'm that strong now?" Ling Jiu blinked.

"Super-clustered beings are extremely strong. Under normal circumstances, a large galaxy can only produce one super-clustered being. You have met too many super-clustered beings, so you think that super-clustered beings are common. However, that is a wrong perception," Leoux said. "Let's go. Let me bring you along as I haul a star."

"Righto."

The distance of five light-years was far, but for Leoux, it was just as close as going to a neighboring village.

"This is an orange dwarf with a diameter slightly smaller than that of the Sun. Its mass is about 90% of the sun, while its radius is about 86%. It has a surface temperature of 4,000. Under normal circumstances, its life span would be as long as a millennium," Leoux explained with a smile. "For living creatures, the bigger the body, the better. The bigger the body, the more competitive and stronger. As for a star, the smaller the mass, the larger the body and the longer the life span. Of course, the breeding of life requires the most stable environment. So, life can breed the easiest near a stable and long-lived star."

"I learned something new today." Ling Jiu nodded.

"There's more." Leoux guffawed. It steered the Leoux and went up to the star before it launched thousands of space shuttles.

The space shuttles surrounded the star and were of equal distance from each other. Then, they released their black chains.

Countless black chains were connected, forming a massive, impenetrable net that enveloped the star.

Immediately after, a black chain was fastened to the Leoux.

Leoux gave the chain an abrupt pull and slowly jerked the star forward, hauling it like an old donkey pulling a carriage.

"Holy moly, it's really moving!"

It was a sight. As experienced and widely traveled as Ling Jiu was, he still could not believe his eyes.

He had never even dared to think about hauling a star before this. But it was really happening right now, and the one doing it was his friend.

Unbelievable.

As the Leoux hauled the star and came up to Ling Jiu, Leoux's voice followed. "We may go home now, Ling Jiu."

"There is a planet orbiting this star, Leoux," Ling Jiu said as he pointed at a planet that was left in the distance.

That planet originally orbited the star, but as the star was being hauled away faster and faster, the planet could not keep up. Hence, it was left behind in space.

"It is a rocky planet, about the size of Mars. There is not much value in it. Just leave it there," Leoux said indifferently.

"It will be a waste to just leave it like that. Why don't we bring it along? We can place it around a white hole and make little modifications here and there. Then voilà! We will have another habitable planet."

Ling Jiu licked his lips and flew toward the planet. When he was in front of the planet, he teleported to the other side.

He then gave it a hard push, and the planet started to move.

He pushed it harder, and the planet continued to speed forward.

"Lead the way, Leoux."

"I have no problem if you want to bring it along. Even so, I have got to remind you that it is going to slow us down and take us eight to ten years to get to the white hole."

"It doesn't matter. The flow of time is fast here, and time is what we have here."

"Very well, whatever."

Just like that, Leoux hauled the star forward while Ling Jiu pushed the planet as he followed it from behind.

They started to pick up speed along the way.

Chapter 355: Final Breakthrough, Green Planet

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Due to Ling Jiu's willfulness, it took a full eight years to get to the white hole's vicinity and another two years to choose a suitable location to settle down.

Things could have been done more quickly, but he had spent 10 years, which was a waste of time, and he just did not care.

The time flow was faster near a white hole, and he was a super-clustered being who could afford to waste 100,000 years. So, what were a mere 10 years?

"I found you a star, Flame. You can stay on this star and practice self-cultivation from now on. Strive to become a perfect three-dimensional lifeform as quickly as you can."

Ling Jiu brought Flame to the star. True to her nature as a Flame Astral Behemoth that fed on stars, Flame fell in love with the orange dwarf at first sight.

She flapped her wings and catapulted herself toward the orange dwarf, stirring up a terrifying solar storm.

Immediately after, like a dolphin returning to the sea, she rolled and swam freely on the star's surface without fear of the terrifying nuclear fusion and astonishingly high temperatures.

"She's not a Flame Astral Behemoth for nothing."

Ling Jiu was impressed. It was hard to imagine that life could swim on the surface of a star. If she had been an ordinary lifeform, she would have been gasified instantly.

"Leoux, if you have time in the future, get more stars and planets over here. The Flame Astral Behemoth could use the stars to practice self-cultivation, and planets could be terraformed into habitable planets," Ling Jiu said suddenly.

"Your thinking chimes with the practices of many higher-level civilizations." Leoux nodded gently. "White holes are natural holy places for self-cultivation. More advanced civilizations that can move planets would do the same, making the most of a white hole by moving planets from other places to its vicinity."

"White holes are a good thing."

Next, Ling Jiu stayed on Whitehole 1. His original plan had been to wait for him and his Golden Saiyan Ape avatar to become super-clustered beings. Only then would he go to the Andromeda Galaxy to find the Lernaean Hydras that had wiped out the Caius Titans.

While Ling Jiu had become a super-clustered being, his avatar, the Golden Saiyan Ape, remained a Level 9 galactic being. It was only one step away from becoming a super-clustered being, and Ling Jiu did not mind waiting.

Twenty clones were comprehending the Law of Dimensions right then, and an army of gardeners was planting the super Arcana trees.

Therefore, Ling Jiu was idle and feeling bored. As such, he brought Leoux with him and started looking for planets.

White holes were a good thing.

Not only was the time flow around them fast, but the concentration of Dark Bio-energy was high.

With only five planets around such a good thing, it seemed empty, and he had to make good use of it.

Following that, Ling Jiu and Leoux looked around for suitable rocky planets as well as stars.

However, this time, Ling Jiu would leave the job of pushing planets to Leoux because Leoux could do a better job than he did in that regard.

One hundred years had passed since then.

On this day, there was a sudden burst of powerful energy on the surface of Whitehole 1. The violent energy rose in the form of shock waves, spreading all over the surface of the planet.

The shock waves were as powerful as a nuclear explosion. They carried tons of sand and dust as they swept over the surface of Whitehole 1.

"What's the situation?"

"What's happening?"

The event startled Emperor Might and Vulcan, who were in a self-cultivation. They spontaneously rushed out of the maglev airship and rose into the air with horror in their eyes.

"What powerful energy!"

"Who released this powerful energy?"

"Could it be that terrifying Direbeast?"

The two of them were quaking in their boots as they could feel the energy radiating from a place not far away from them.

The energy was incomparably violent like the breath of a ferocious wild beast brutally assaulting their minds.

The two wanted to know who it was, but they were too afraid to get close. They might have reached the pinnacle of galactic beings and would ascend to super-clustered level at any time, but it was like fireflies trying to outshine the sun. They did not even come close to being comparable to that energy.

They did not want to die for nothing.

"Hide! Don't let that thing spot us, or we'll be dead."

Emperor Might and Vulcan had their hearts in their mouths. They quickly hid the maglev airship and swooped down to the earth, right into the ground.

It was not a wild beast but Ling Jiu's avatar, the Golden Saiyan Ape, that had given off the powerful energy.

After a hundred years of self-cultivation, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had finally broken through that crucial stage and become a super-clustered being.

The breakthrough that the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had achieved was purely physical. It had nothing to do with the Laws.

"I've made it at last."

Feeling a powerful energy gushing out of his body, Ling Jiu could not help but exhale.

He and the Golden Saiyan Ape were super-clustered beings, but there was a qualitative difference between them. There was simply no comparison.

"What is the physical attribute index of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar now, Leoux?" Ling Jiu asked.

"Let me take a look." Leoux immediately operated the Leoux to scan the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar. After a long while, Leoux said, "Twenty million times."

"Twenty million times? Are you kidding me?" The figure completely knocked Ling Jiu over with a feather.

Before its ascension, the physical attribute index of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar was only 15 million times. After the ascension, it had risen to the astounding level of 20 million times.

It had improved by five million times.

It was stunning.

"This is how badass the ultimate Golden Saiyan Ape Warrior is. The stronger the physical body, the higher the physical attribute index. It will always surpass other beings in the same realm."

Leoux was used to this, but it was still thrilled.

"There is no limit to how far the physical bodies of the Golden Saiyan Apes can go. So, even if they do not comprehend the Laws of the Universe and do not practice the laws of the body, they can grow stronger indefinitely. It sounds crazy, right?"

"It definitely does." Ling Jiu sighed again and again. "But this ascension has also exhausted the Dark Bio-energy on the Floating Island."

"That's okay. As long as the Floating Island and the super Arcana tree forest are still there, they will continue to produce Dark Bio-energy," Leoux said. "The avatar and the Floating Island can take this opportunity to finally catch a break."

"Absolutely." Ling Jiu nodded gently.

Since the last expansion, his Floating Islands and the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had reached 50 million square kilometers.

After that, the gods, Kryptonians, and Caius Titans who made up the 70,000-strong gardeners had been planting super Arcana trees on the Floating Islands nonstop.

As of now, the super Arcana tree forest covered 1,500 square kilometers with 150 billion super Arcana trees planted.

If the Dark Bio-energy produced by 360 million super Arcana trees every day was enough to form a Stellar Core, how much Dark Bio-energy could 150 billion super Arcana trees produce every day?

It would be incalculable.

Despite that, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had exhausted all the Dark Bio-energy that had been accumulating on the Floating Island for the last 100 years.

That was how much Dark Bio-energy the breakthrough had consumed this time.

However, it mattered little. The massive super Arcana tree forest would quickly replenish the Dark Bio-energy on the island.

Besides, 70,000 gardeners were working on the island, and the forest of super Arcana trees was still expanding. It was a virtuous circle.

"My avatar and I have become super-clustered beings. It is time to go to the Andromeda Galaxy, Leoux.

"Let's go. I can't wait too."

The two did not set off from Whitehole 1. They first returned to Earth and departed from there.

Earth was in the Milky Way, which was closer to the Andromeda Galaxy.

"How long will it take, Leoux?"

"The solar system is about 2.5 million light-years away from the Andromeda Galaxy. The journey will take us three days."

"Three days? I will take a nap, then. Wake me up upon arrival."

"You got it."

They had arrived at a planet when Ling Jiu woke up.

The entire planet was green.

There was no blue that represented the ocean.

There was no yellow that represented desert.

There was literally only green everywhere.

The entire planet looked like a crystal-clear emerald that was quietly suspended in space.

"Have we arrived, Leoux?"

"This is the first planet with life that we will visit in the Andromeda Galaxy. Shall we land and take a look?" Leoux said.

"Yeah, why not?" Ling Jiu had no problem with that.

Their purpose of going to the Andromeda Galaxy at that point was to capture the super-clustered Lernaean Hydras and find soul fragments to expand the Soul Nebula. Hence, it was unnecessary to visit planets that were devoid of super-clustered beings.

The two got out of the Leoux and approached the green planet. Ling Jiu could feel the planet's breath of life from a distance.

"Strange, why is there only one type of sign of life here? Is there merely a single kind of life form on this planet? Did I make a mistake or something?" Ling Jiu asked in confusion.

"You didn't make a mistake. There is indeed only one kind of life form on this planet, and that is the Lernaean Hydras I mentioned to you before," Leoux said. "Obviously, after the Lernaean Hydras occupied this planet, they killed all the other life forms."

"They have taken the entire planet for themselves? That is ruthless! Let's check it out."

Taking a step forward, Ling Jiu landed on the surface of the planet. Just as he had seen in outer space, vegetation indeed covered the entire planet. However, the vegetation did not look like trees or grass but a type of plant similar to a reed.

These reeds widely grew on the planet. At first glance, it appeared that these reeds were the only vegetation and completely covered the planet, which was also why the planet appeared green.

Beneath the reeds, unseen by the naked eye, there was water over one meter deep. The water nourished the reeds and formed a conducive environment.

"There is only one kind of plant growing on this planet? That's amazing! I wonder how this plant evolved." Ling Jiu was surprised.

"Natural selection promotes diversity of species, but there's only one plant species here. Obviously, this is not the result of natural selection." Leoux's eyes were burning. "I think this planet was originally a water-rich planet, and someone brought this plant here later. This plant grew and finally covered the entire planet, kind of like how you plant super Arcana trees."

"This is interesting."

Chapter 356: A Metal Planet, the Last Boss

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The entire planet was full of reed-like plants.

There was nothing else besides that.

It was a weird planet. It was extremely impossible for a planet to evolve with only a single plant species, but it would be entirely possible if it resulted from artificial influence.

Plus, the entire planet appeared peaceful. The only audible sound was the rustling of the reeds in the wind.

There were no bugs and birds chirping or animals roaring. The entire planet was quiet.

"It's hard to imagine that there are billions of living things lurking on such a planet, let alone hundreds of super-clustered beings."

Ling Jiu gasped, releasing a little of his energy.

Swish!

Just as he did that, the reeds in the distance swayed, and a huge, as well as hideous head, poked out from the reeds.

Hiss!

It was the head of a Hydra, which was the size of a dustpan, with black scales all over the surface. A pair of blood-red eyes were staring at Ling Jiu.

"Huh, a human?"

The Hydra flicked its tongue as it hissed, looking surprised. The next second, 33 Hydra heads popped out from the reeds.

These 33 heads grew on the same neck, and they were densely packed. The sight would have scared the hell out of those with trypophobia.

"Hiss… I never expected to see a human here. What a surprise! But since he's here, I will make him my snack today."

The 33 Hydra heads flicked their tongues and swished their tails as they moved toward Ling Jiu in a whirlwind.

"According to what you said, with 33 Hydra heads, this guy is a Level 6 super-clustered being?" Ling Jiu asked faintly, ignoring the approaching giant Hydra.

"That's right. The Lernaean Hydras will grow a head every time they evolve to a higher level. They go from planetary Level 1 to super-clustered Level 6, ending with exactly thirty-three heads," Leoux replied.

"Not bad." Ling Jiu nodded gently.

The Lernaean Hydra had arrived before him, and it was about to bite him. It was going to tear him into pieces and eat him.

It was a shame that right then, time in its surroundings suddenly came to a standstill.

A beam of black light shooting out of Ling Jiu's wrist wrapped around and dragged the Hydra into the Leoux.

"Extract its soul and leave the body to me, Leoux."

"Understood." Leoux was doing it so fast that it seemed effortless. Before long, it spat out the body of the Lernaean Hydra.

Ling Jiu took the body into his Inner World (Flame Astral Behemoth) and decomposed it.

The decomposing ability of his Inner World became super robust after he became a super-clustered being.

The Lernaean Hydra was decomposed into the purest vitality and sent into Ling Jiu's body in no time.

Just like the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar, Ling Jiu was wearing a Gravity Bangle that constantly consumed his vitality. His and his avatar's body became stronger during the process of such consumption.

Ling Jiu issued his first command. "Leoux, give me the soul fragments. Find and catch the other Lernaean Hydras on this planet—I mean all of them."

"You got it." Leoux lunged out of Ling Jiu's wrist and carried out the order, while Ling Jiu started to digest the soul fragments of this Lernaean Hydra.

According to Leoux's findings, there were 3 billion Lernaean Hydras on this planet. They lived in the water beneath the reeds. They were one of the only two living species on this planet. It was hard to imagine how they survived.

But this was not something Ling Jiu cared about. No matter how many Lernaean Hydras were here, they all were going to become his source of nourishment.

Any other thing was not important.

Leoux was highly efficient in its job. It piloted the Leoux to find and capture all the Lernaean Hydras it could find, like a harvester sweeping across the surface of the planet.

It captured them indiscriminately, whether they were strong or weak, stellar beings or super-clustered beings.

Not a single Lernaean Hydra on this planet could escape the raid. They all went into the Leoux.

All the Lernaean Hydras on this planet were wiped out in just ten hours. There was not a Hydra left.

Of course, the Lernaean Hydras would not go extinct just yet. Instead, Leoux had detected tons of Hydra eggs in the reeds.

These Hydra eggs would hatch in the coming spring, and by then, the Lernaean Hydras would take over the planet again.

So, the Lernaean Hydra was really a disgusting species.

"Extract the souls out of the super-clustered beings and shred them into soul fragments and then pass their bodies to me."

"Understood." Leoux faded into a stream of light and left the planet. They were heading to the next Lernaean Hydra-infested planet.

During the flight, Ling Jiu started to get busy. He had to digest not only the soul fragments but also the many Lernaean Hydra bodies. He was up to his neck.

He threw hundreds of super-clustered Lernaean Hydras into the Floating Island, converting them into Dark Psionic Energy to expand the Soul Nebula.

He then divided the remaining Lernaean Hydras into two parts, one part going into his Inner World (the Flame Astral Behemoth), the other part into that of the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar (the Flame Astral Behemoth). There, Lernaean Hydras would be converted into pure vitality to strengthen the physical body.

Time flies when you are busy. Before they knew it, they had come to a second Lernaean Hydra-infested planet.

They subsequently went from second, third, fourth to the fifth planet.

Over time, Ling Jiu found that the Lernaean Hydras were actually highly vicious creatures. No other species could exist on the planet where Lernaean Hydras lived.

There might be many plant species on a planet, but there was always only one species of creature, which was the Lernaean Hydra.

"I wonder what these guys feed on."

"I have studied them. The Lernaean Hydra is an artificially created species. They do not need to forage but have the same photosynthesis ability as plants. They can survive forever by just converting light into energy," Leoux said.

"This ability is really sick, just like mine." Ling Jiu was astonished.

He did not actually need food, because he had replicated Absorb Any Form of Energy Into Vitality Arcana.

He could live without food and water, but just by converting solar and wind energies into vitality.

So when the Lernaean Hydra had the same ability it was just sick.

"That thing is just as sick as you are."

In the following three months, Ling Jiu and Leoux went around all the planets and hunted the Lernaean Hydras.

During those three months, countless Lernaean Hydras were killed, planets cleaned up.

In the fourth month, Ling Jiu and Leoux arrived at the center of the Andromeda Galaxy where a supermassive white hole was.

This white hole was so massive that it was tens of thousands of times larger than the one near Whitehole 1, ejecting torrents of energy all the time.

The amazing things were, there were hundreds of planets around this white hole, and they were all life-harboring planets.

Ling Jiu could sense the powerful energy of life on these planets from a far distance.

These planets looked like bright moons in the night sky; they were hard to miss.

"If I am not mistaken, this white hole is the lair of the Lernaean Hydra. Or rather, the hiding place of their boss." There was a hint of suppressed delight in Leoux's voice.

Ling Jiu nodded gently. "We have visited half of the Andromeda galaxy for the past four months and never once encountered a region with so many life-harboring planets. If the primary lair of the Lernaean Hydra is on any celestial body, this white hole is the most probable place."

"Absolutely."

Leoux scanned around and quickly came back with results. "There are three hundred and thirty-four planets near this white hole. 333 were life-harboring planets with 129,860 super-clustered beings. Wait a second. What is that?"

Leoux's voice went up an octave in excitement all of a sudden. "Damn! Ling Jiu, you will be rich. You are so damn lucky!"

"Rich?"

It confused Ling Jiu to see Leoux suddenly becoming so excited for no reason. "What the hell are you talking about?"

Ling Jiu was more interested in the 129,860 super-clustered beings. He was imagining how large his Soul Nebula would expand if he refined all of them.

"I told you before, the Lernaean Hydra is an artificially created species, and that there must be a big boss behind this, right?" Leoux said.

"Yeah. So?" Ling Jiu was confused. "You have found the boss?"

"You bet." Leoux nodded vigorously. "I told you before that there are 334 planets, of which 333 are life-harboring planets, right?"

"Yeah."

"The remaining one planet is not a natural life-sustaining but a metal planet," Leoux said as it randomly pressed a few buttons. A light flashed in the Leoux and a holographic projection of a planet appeared.

This was not the first time Ling Jiu saw a hologram.

The planet shown in the hologram was a black planet, looking like a massive spherical Rubik's cube with countless squares engraved on the surface, and each square was as large as dozens of square kilometers.

Diving the squares were ravines that were thousands of meters long and tens of meters deep. These ravines were all over the planet.

"See that? This is the only metal celestial body among the 334 planets." Leoux had calmed down by now. "It is made of Class 5 alloys, obviously the work of the Grand Unified Civilization. Not only that; it looks like a planet on the outside, but actually was a metal fortress, or you can call it a spaceship. The Lernaean Hydra is just a group of brutal creatures with a low IQ and brute strength. Apparently, they could not make such a spaceship. The question is, who built it?"

"The Boss?" Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

"Bingo! It is the boss hiding behind the Lernaean Hydras. But do you know what this boss is? An Evogod. It is an Evogod."

"An Evogod? Seriously?"

Chapter 357: At the Pinnacle of Super-Cluster, Another Upgrade

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Are you sure there's an Evogod here, Leoux?"

There was a light in Ling Jiu's eyes. He could not hold back his excitement.

"The Leoux will not go wrong with such a small thing." Leoux had a smile of confidence on its face. "I have detected a very strong Dark Psionic reaction on the metal planet. The soul strength surpasses that of a perfect three-dimensional life form, but the vitality reaction only corresponds to that of a super-clustered being. The soul's strength does not match the body's—this is a typical characteristic of the Evogods. I am dead sure that the living being hiding on this metal planet is an Evogod."

"This is interesting." Ling Jiu nodded repeatedly. "What should I do next? Should I go straight in, or should I capture the Evogod first and finish off the minions later?"

"I would say, save the best for last. I have checked, and there are no traces of wormholes around this white hole," Leoux said. "Besides, this Evogod is only at the level of a Grand Unified Civilization. It does not possess wormholes or teleportation technology. So there are no concerns about it escaping."

"That will be great then."

Ling Jiu licked his lips and shut down the Gravity Bangle. As the gravitational force vanished, he felt a sense of weightlessness and relaxation as if he had been released from a shackle.

"Both my avatar and I have absorbed too much vitality in the last four months. We are now seriously overloaded with energy."

Ling Jiu cracked his neck, finding his body so light that he felt like he was about to float. "I need to relieve myself of this energy badly."

"Enjoy yourself, then. There are 129,860 super-clustered Lernaean Hydras here. You can do whatever you want," Leoux said.

"Besides, the time flow near this white hole is 888:1. This means that a day on Earth equals eight hundred and eighty-eight days here. So you have all the time in the universe to squander."

"Wonderful." Ling Jiu nodded with delight. "In that case, leave these 129,860 super-clustered beings to me. Meanwhile, I will leave the Evogod to you—I don't want to get blown into pieces by the gravity bomb."

"No worries. I will make sure that it can't fire a single shot." Leoux guffawed. Of course, it knew the seriousness of the matter. If the gravity bomb were to hit Leoux, or even Ling Jiu, who was a super-clustered being, they would be vaporized into a plume of hydrogen.

As Ling Jiu's auxiliary intelligence, Leoux certainly would not allow such things to happen.

"I'll be off now." Ling Jiu vanished from the Leoux. When he reappeared, he was tens of thousands of kilometers away, arriving at the first life-harboring planet.

It was a white planet.

The sky was white, the clouds were also white, and even the land was white. It was apparently a frozen planet.

Hovering in the sky, Ling Jiu felt an icy cold air blowing into his face. The air temperature was about -70 or -80 degrees.

Not far away from him was a massive cloud of ice crystals.

The ice crystal cloud was suspended in the air, like a lump of stiffened cotton. A slight touch would cause an enormous chunk of ice crystal to fall and create a magnificent sight.

"Magnificent scenery of mountains and rivers. High concentration of dark bio-energy! Super-fast time flow!" Ling Jiu could not help but exclaim in awe. "Such a beautiful place, yet occupied by a group of dirty Lernaean Hydras. Everything is so wrong!"

He no longer concealed his energy.

Bwoom!

Extremely powerful energy exploded out of him and swept across the entire planet in an instant.

Hiss!

Hiss!

A series of hissing sounds rose from all over the planet, and then came the muffled rumbling of the earth.

Icebergs were collapsing, ice sheets were cracking, and snow was exploding.

All that followed by the Lernaean Hydras with dozens of heads bursting out of the ground into the air before flying towards Ling Jiu in midair.

Ling Jiu did not even bother to conceal his aura. He was too hard to miss, as he looked like a bright sun in the sky.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The Lernaean Hydras moved so quickly that tens of thousands of them had come in front of Ling Jiu in the blink of an eye.

They all had over 30 heads and over 30 pairs of eyes staring at him. They looked extremely ghastly and vicious.

"Who is this guy? How did he find his way here?"

"He looks like a Caius Titan, but they should have been extinct a long time ago. But at the same time, he is different."

"Who cares? He will die after all."

"That's right. He has to die. This is our territory. Whoever dares to invade must die."

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Tens of thousands of Lernaean Hydras attacked at once. Ling Jiu roared. As he removed his Size Reduction arcana, he expanded into a 50,000-meter giant.

He had knotted muscles and stood towering into the sky like Pangu.

"Come on!"

They all came to blows at once.

Bwoom!

Since this was an alien planet, and the Lernaean Hydras were the only living things here, Ling Jiu was free to use his full strength to fight without worrying about collateral damage.

He deployed a right punch, smashing dozens of Lernaean Hydras that stepped up to him. With a left kick, he sent dozens of others flying back. He then clashed with the other with his back.

How did the elites fight?

Here it was…

The shock wave produced from the clash of Ling Jiu and a Lernaean Hydra was so powerful that it blasted open the sky and left behind a black hole.

The Lernaean Hydra was smashed to the ground, crushing an iceberg and the glacier. It was the scene of cracking open, mountains collapsing and earth sinking.

Baroom!

As the battle raged on, more and more Lernaean Hydras joined the fight.

These Lernaean Hydras living on this planet were well-nourished by the dark bio-energy, their combat strength incredibly robust.

Not to mention they had the advantage of numbers.

The situation quickly deteriorated for Ling Jiu when the Lernaean Hydras' attack started to overwhelm him. Fortunately, Ling Jiu could perform Blink Arcana and Time Halt to get himself out of trouble.

So even if he was besieged, beaten, pursued by thousands of Lernaean Hydras, his life was not in danger.

Ling Jiu fought thousands of Lernaean Hydras. But sometimes, he retreated, ran, and fled.

This brutal battle went on for three months before it stopped.

The planet's surface had been smashed until it was unrecognizable. The collapsed iceberg, broken ice sheet, and ice layer all told a brutal story of the battle.

Thousands of Lernaean Hydras had disappeared, some going into hiding, and some fleeing. They were now all gone.

Ling Jiu was sitting on a sharp icy edge, catching his breath.

"All the Lernaean Hydras have finally been wiped out after three months! I am completely exhausted."

Ling Jiu breathed out a turbid air.

He did not use Blink Arcana and Time Halt as an attack for the past three months. He only used them as self-protection to escape dangers.

That was the reason it took him three months to wipe out Lernaean Hydras and send them all into his Inner World.

It had been a long and tough battle, but the results were absolutely gratifying.

Three months of high-intensity fighting had drained too much of this vitality. Fortunately, he had devoured many Lernaean Hydras before and even during the battle.

It was like fueling war with war.

After three months, Ling Jiu's physical strength had increased one hundredfold. He had upgraded from super-clustered Level 1 to Level 4.

It was a multifold jump.

It was truly impressive.

Each minor upgrade of a super-clustered being would translate into a huge jump in combat effectiveness.

Not to mention that Ling Jiu had replicated the Ultimate Physique of the Flame Astral Behemoth. Every jump in level would translate into a massive qualitative leap in combat effectiveness.

That was the reason it took Ling Jiu only three months to jump from super-clustered level 1 to level 4. The progress was incredibly impressive.

Not forgetting that the Soul Nebula was also expanding.

In the past, Ling Jiu had been weak, and digesting a super-clustered being had been difficult. He needed Leoux's help to break down the super-clustered being into soul fragments.

But now, that was no longer necessary.

He just needed to throw the super-clustered being into the Inner World (Flame Astral Behemoth) and the Inner World would break it down into vitality and dark psionic energy.

Vitality would enter the body, while dark psionic energy would flow into the sea of consciousness.

So after devouring thousands of souls of the super-clustered beings, his Soul Nebula was also expanding, albeit on a smaller scale.

"I have to take a few days of rest before I send my avatar to a second planet."

For Ling Jiu, sleep was the best way to rest. He released the maglev airship, took a hot bath, and then fell asleep.

After three days of sleep, his mental state returned to its peak. He switched into the body of his avatar, the Golden Saiyan Ape, and headed to a second life-harboring planet.

Using the same way to lure the enemy, he successfully attracted a large group of Lernaean Hydras.

The same kind of battle followed.

However, there was a difference this time: the Golden Saiyan Ape differed completely from that of Ling Jiu.

When facing thousands of Lernaean Hydras, Ling Jiu had to use guerrilla tactics, while the Golden Saiyan Ape was using a more brute-force method.

A guerrilla tactic?

What the heck were guerrilla tactics?

One word: fight!

The Golden Saiyan Ape had just made a breakthrough, and it was only a Level-1 super-clustered being, but its super-robust physique with a body attribute index of 20 million gave it incredibly destructive power in every strike.

A simple punch, a casual kick, and the use of its elbow could seriously hurt a Lernaean Hydra.

The Golden Saiyan Ape took less than five days to kill the same number of Lernaean Hydras, which was in the thousands.

"These opponents are too weak, completely unchallenging. Fighting them did not consume too much vitality." Ling Jiu forced a smile. "So the result is, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar hasn't improved at all. It seems that I have somewhat underestimated this avatar of mine."

Since the fight with the Lernaean Hydras had not improved the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar's strength, it was obviously meaningless to continue to let it fight.

Ling Jiu recalled the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar and sent it to receive gravity training on the Floating Island, while he headed to a third life-harboring planet.

Time flies when you are busy. 100 years had passed since then.

Ling Jiu walked out of his maglev airship on this day. He was wearing pajamas, apparently just getting up.

"I had a good sleep."

Ling Jiu stretched as he looked into the distance. Before his eyes was the clear-blue sea. The water so crystal-clear and almost as blue as it was green.

Below him was a small island, on which lush-green strange plants grew. Combined with the greenish sea, it was picture-perfect scenery.

"What a beautiful planet!"

Ling Jiu liked the scenery. So he chose this planet as a place of rest when the battle was over. It was so beautiful here that it was a pure enjoyment just by looking at it.

Ling Jiu took out a chair, a table, some fruits, and wine. Then he sat down and ate the fruits while he sipped on the wine as he enjoyed the scenery in front of him.

He was apparently in a good mood…

And he could not help feeling otherwise.

A battle that lasted for 100 years…

After hopping onto 333 different planets, and devouring 129,860 super-clustered beings, his strength had undergone tremendous changes. His physical body was upgraded from super-clustered Level 4 to its limit, which was just one step shy of achieving another breakthrough.

His Soul Nebula had also exploded rapidly to 260 soul stellar units, more than twice the previous number.

Of course, the changes on the Floating Island were no less spectacular over the past 100 years.

The 50 million square kilometers of Floating Island were planted with super arcana trees. In other words, the entire Floating Island had turned into a forest.

There were 500 billion super arcana trees right now.

And the amount of dark bio-energy produced every day was absolutely massive.

This was only about Ling Jiu himself.

The changes of the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar were equally impressive.

Its physical body had been upgraded to super-clustered level-2, which was a level of improvement, but the increase in combat effectiveness was immeasurable.

Its Floating Island, just like that of Ling Jiu, at 50 million square kilometers, had been planted with 50 million super arcana trees.

"The Floating Islands are full now. It is time for another round of expansion. When I go back this time, I will devour the moons and continue with the expansion."

While Ling Jiu was enjoying himself, Leoux suddenly called him on the phone. "Have you gotten enough rest, Ling Jiu?"

"What's up?" Ling Jiu frowned.

"You better hurry, the Evogod is going to get an upgrade soon," Leoux said.

"An upgrade?" Ling Jiu got up to his feet. "What the hell is going on?"

"I have been trapping that Evogod in its lair for the past one hundred years, and that was the reason you could fight undistracted," Leoux explained. "But it seems that what I have done has angered the Evogod. It is taking the risk to make an upgrade—I am talking about an upgrade of the soul."

"The strength of its soul has reached the peak of a perfect three-dimensional life form. If it upgrades again, it will become a cosmic life form." Speaking of this, Leoux's tone of voice turned solemn. "An Evogod whose soul strength reaches the level of a cosmic life form will be extremely nasty."

"I told you before that the souls of the Evogods are incredibly special. They can possess any object, including machines and spaceships. The Leoux is a spaceship. I can't imagine if it infiltrates the Leoux and seizes control from me. Honestly, I can't stop it. I have been monitoring it, and the possibility of it infiltrating the Leoux is extremely low. But I don't want to take chances. You had better come over quickly. We are to get rid of that guy before things get out of hands."

"I will be right there at once."

Chapter 358: Powerful Soul, Almost Dead

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Leoux was quietly suspended in the space above the metal planet, while thousands of space shuttles released a large gravitational net to enclose the metal planet.

The net was impenetrable, not even by signals. Ling Jiu teleported himself into the Leoux.

"You're back, Ling Jiu," Leoux said with a sense of awe in its voice. "The pinnacle of super-clustered being—not half bad at all! It's an amazing improvement."

"Of course. I didn't sit idly over the last one hundred years." Ling Jiu broke into a gentle smile. "When shall we do it?"

"Since you're here, let's do it now," Leoux replied without hesitation. "But before that, I have to warn you…"

"I'm all ears."

It was Leoux's first time being so serious, and Ling Jiu could not help be serious too.

"Firstly, the strength of the Evogod's soul has reached the pinnacle of a perfect three-dimensional life form. It is extremely powerful. Once it launches a soul attack, it can certainly destroy and blast your soul into pieces in an instant," Leoux said in a solemn voice. "So, you must play safe and not go outside the Leoux's protection zone. Otherwise, you could put yourself in grave danger. Do you understand?"

"I get it." Ling Jiu nodded vigorously.

The stronger the being, the bigger the gap.

Planetary and stellar beings…

Stellar and galactic beings…

Galactic and super-clustered beings…

The gap increased exponentially with each higher level.

The gap between a perfect three-dimensional being and a super-clustered being was much larger than the gap between a stellar being and a planetary being.

Therefore, although he was at the pinnacle of a super-clustered being, the gap between him and a perfect three-dimensional being was light-years apart.

He was like a vulnerable newborn baby in front of the perfect three-dimensional Evogod.

A simple soul attack from the Evogod would likely render Ling Jiu dumb and possibly dead. How could Ling Jiu not be careful?

"Secondly, this metal planet is essentially a heavily armed fortress. Touch nothing when you are on it. You could unwittingly trigger its defensive system like the gravity bomb. You will be done for if that happens.

"Thirdly, once you are on the planet, say nothing. Leave everything to me. Capture or even kill them and ask questions later."

"I get it."

"Let's go, then."

Leoux faded into a stream of light and disappeared into Ling Jiu's wrist.

After that, streams of black light shot out from his wrist, forming a layer that was similar to the Venom Suit. It covered his body to ensure his safety.

Ling Jiu took a deep breath and teleported himself to the metal planet.

The metal planet was entirely made of metal, with a metal surface and metal mantle.

Ling Jiu went all the way down, and ten minutes later, a massive space came into view.

It did not surprise him at all. Knowing that the planet was essentially a spaceship, it could not possibly have a solid core.

The interior was as bright as day.

In other words, the space was like a brightly lit underground laboratory.

There were bridges and corridors extending in all directions and running through the entire space.

Robots were traversing on these bridges in an orderly manner as they each carried out their respective tasks.

"How many robots are here?"

Ling Jiu was secretly shocked. The spherical space was at least over a thousand kilometers in diameter.

How many robots were there since there were numerous robots on each bridge and the many bridges crisscrossed in such a massive space?

Innumerable.

Robots of different shapes and sizes filled the entire space, all working monotonously like string puppets.

"Where is the Evogod, Leoux?"

Ling Jiu swept his eyes across the place, searching the bridges, corridors, and robots. It puzzled him that he could find no trace of the Evogod.

The Evogods were soul beings.

They did not give out the slightest sign of life. It was impossible to spot them using ordinary methods.

Besides, the soul of this Evogod was much stronger than his. So if this Evogod was deliberately concealing its aura, there was nothing that Ling Jiu could do about it.

"See the pillar at the center?"

Leoux's voice resounded in Ling Jiu's mind. He looked around and saw a pillar standing in the middle of the space.

The pillar was transparent, and it looked like it was made of glass. There was a massive amount of silvery ion current flowing inside, reminiscent of a water pipe.

It stood at the center of the space at hundreds of kilometers long and dozens of kilometers wide, as though it was the pillar that supported the entire space.

All bridges and corridors connected to this pillar, as the primary structure radiated in all directions. It was apparent that the pillar was the core structure there.

"Is the Evogod in this pillar?" Ling Jiu was surprised.

"This pillar is the control core, or rather, the planet's control center. The Evogod's soul lives there," Leoux explained. "Do you see the silvery ion current? That is actually the Evogod's soul flow. The Evogod controls the entire planet with this pillar. Let's check it out."

"Okay."

Ling Jiu nodded gently. He took a step and arrived before the pillar at once.

As soon as he approached it, a powerful torrent of spirit hit him while an icy consciousness appeared in his mind.

"Invader, how dare you come here!"

The next moment, a burst of powerful spiritual torrent hit Ling Jiu's sea of consciousness, assaulting his soul. It was as if it would crush Ling Jiu's soul into pieces.

"So… scary!" Ling Jiu trembled in fear.

At that moment, he started to realize how powerful the Evogod's soul was. It was like the sun was lying in front of him and emitting endless light as well as heat. It seemed as though it was going to burn everything to ashes.

Meanwhile, Ling Jiu was like an ant near the sun. As soon as he got closer, the sun would burn him to ashes, and he would have no chance to escape.

"Is this the soul of the most powerful, perfect three-dimensional being?"

Ling Jiu started to suffocate, and his consciousness seemed to be frozen. "The gap between us is too huge. I can't even do anything if it wants to kill me."

Just as the spiritual torrent poured into Ling Jiu's sea of consciousness and was about to assault Ling his soul, it suddenly stopped.

It had come to a standstill.

Ling Jiu saw a layer of black substance, almost like a Venom Suit, appear on the surface of the flooding spiritual torrent.

It enveloped the spiritual torrent, preventing it from going further before dragging it out from Ling Jiu's sea of consciousness bit by bit.

At last, the spiritual torrent was dragged out of Ling Jiu's sea of consciousness completely. As the powerful soul pressure disappeared, Ling Jiu panted heavily and almost slumped to the ground.

He was breaking out in a cold sweat because he had thought that he would die earlier.

Those feelings of suffocation, helplessness, and pressure were unprecedented.

Ling Jiu looked up and saw a layer of light, which was as black as a tadpole, covering the pillar.

He instantly knew that Leoux had struck.

"Leoux, you saved my life. Without you, I would have been dead." Ling Jiu gasped for air, fear still lingering inside him.

"I knew that this would happen, but I still underestimated the Evogod's speed. You would have died had I been a second slower." Leoux shook its head. "The gap between your soul and the Evogod's is too big. But it doesn't matter now. It got him. Next, I will shred it into soul fragments to help you expand your Soul Nebula."

"You're right. Since its soul is so powerful, absorbing it would expand my Soul Nebula tremendously."

Ling Jiu's eyes shimmered. It did not matter how dangerous it had been just now. The most important thing was that he had nabbed the Evogod.

"Soul Nebula! There is a Soul Nebula in your sea of consciousness! Who are you, really? Why do you have a Soul Nebula in your sea of consciousness?"

The silvery ion current in the pillar turned into a strange big face.

It had three eyes, a pair of small wings on both sides of its face, and three more tentacles under its mouth, which made it look incredibly weird.

It stared at Ling Jiu and questioned him.

Its torrent of consciousness had been dragged out, but it had discovered the Soul Nebula in his sea of consciousness.

His Seoul Nebula was so massive that it was hard to miss.

It was as excited as it was shocked.

The Evogods had been extinct. It had not seen any other Evogod for a long time, let alone the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution.

It did not expect to see one there today.

How could it not feel excited?

"It doesn't matter who I am. One thing is certain: I am not an Evogod."

Ling Jiu went up to the pillar and looked at the big face in the eye. "So, there is no need to get so excited."

"You are not an Evogod? Then where does the Soul Nebula in your mind come from?" The big face roared angrily. "You killed an Evogod and stole the cultivation method, the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution from its memory, didn't you? I knew it! It must be so! You d*mn robber! How dare you kill our people! I will kill you today!"

A powerful soul wave hit the pillar, as the big face was enraged. It assaulted the black light on the pillar and tried to unleash a soul attack.

It was a shame that the black light that covered the pillar was extremely tough, and it would not budge in the slightest, no matter how hard the big face tried.

"Don't waste your energy. This is the Net of the Laws. You can't break it." Leoux came out of Ling Jiu's wrist and spoke in an icy voice.

"Cut the crap and capture it." Ling Jiu waved his hand. "Let me know when you find any useful information in its memory."

"No problem," Leoux replied. The black light that covered the pillar then started to shrink.

As the light shrank, so did the pillar. The Evogod roared and struggled as it was drawn into Ling Jiu's wrist and then the Leoux.

"What should we do with this place, Leoux?" Ling Jiu asked, pointing at the metal planet.

"The science and technology mastered by the Evogods were of a Grand Unified Civilization. It is quite comprehensive and might be of great use to humans."

"Let's take it along, then."

Chapter 359: The Stairway to Heaven, Rapid Expansion

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ling Jiu did not leave immediately after capturing the Evogod. Instead, he went on to absorb the Evogod on the spot as the super-fast time flow on the metal planet would save him a lot of time.

"Are you ready to absorb it, Ling Jiu?"

"I am ready."

"Good."

Following Ling Jiu's order, a steady stream of soul fragments flowed out from the Leoux, and Ling Jiu absorbed them into his Inner World (Flame Astral Behemoth) as usual. The soul fragments were then burned inside the Inner World and converted into the purest Dark Psionic Energy.

His Soul Nebula expanded again.

It went from 270, 280, and then to 300 soul stellar units.

While Ling Jiu was busy absorbing the Evogod, several million light-years away, something major that shocked the world was happening on Earth.

This time, it was not an alien invasion or the emergence of the gods but a miracle.

A stairway had appeared at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains in Huaxia.

The stairway was three meters wide and immeasurably high. It stood between heaven and earth, exuding endless majesty and mystery. One end was connected to the earth and the other end stretched all the way into the sky. It was golden and shiny as if it was the legendary stairway to heaven.

An almighty voice spoke from within the void on the other end of the stairway, it could be heard around the world.

"My fellow humans, I am Ling Jiu. I have always aspired to enhance the strength of my fellow humans. So now, I have specially built a stairway in the Kunlun Mountains. Those who could climb up the stairway will get a divine fruit. This divine fruit will prolong your life and increase your strength. You will get to extend your life by a thousand years and become an ultimate arcanist by just eating one. Anyone non-ultimate Arcanist may try to climb the stairway and find the fruit."

The almighty voice faded as soon as it finished speaking. This caused a stir on Earth.

"What?"

Birch Wood Village, Chang'an Base City.

Meng Lijun, Chen Feng, and others were there together, their eyes flashing like lightning, their bodies emanating a sense of terror.

Apparently, they had all become stellar beings.

But they also looked stunned right now.

"Did you hear the voice just now?"

"Yeah."

"I heard it, too."

"It was Captain Ling's voice."

"Captain Ling has built a stairway in Kunlun. What is he doing?"

"He must be giving out the Casmodor fruits that we have just eaten."

"It must be so."

"How many divine fruits Captain Ling has—so much so that he has to build a stairway and call everyone to go there? What if there are not enough divine fruits to go around?"

"Since Captain Ling is doing this, I am sure he has his own way. Don't you all want to take a look?"

"What are we going to do there? Didn't you hear the stairway is open to non-ultimate arcanists only? We are now stellar beings."

"We will just take a glimpse and not climb the stairway. But I can take my eldest son there and let him try. He is seventeen this year."

"You may do so."

Pangu Arcana Combine branch office, Chang'an Base City.

"Do you want to check it out, Yuhe?" Ai Tiancheng looked at his daughter.

"Nah."

Ai Yuhe sighed, shaking her head. "I am already a Level-Nine arcanist, close to becoming a stellar being. I don't need any divine fruit."

Ai Tiancheng nodded and said nothing more. His daughter was incredibly talented. She was a dimensional arcanist, and now a Level 9 Arcanist. Becoming a stellar being was just a matter of time.

"I will go, then."

"Go ahead, Dad."

That was all the work of 9527. The world was so invested that everyone—from the homeless to the super-rich—was attracted.

People were traveling to Kunlun.

The wealthy drove maglev motorcycles, cars, and even private airships heading towards the Kunlun Mountains.

The poor dragged their families, pushed their carts, and started their journeys on foot. It looked like they were not going to give up until they reached the Kunlun Mountains.

An hour after 9527's announcement, someone had arrived at the base of the stairway in the Kunlun Mountains.

A maglev airship landed, and a group of people got out. They stood upright, lining up on both sides of the airship.

Afterward, a gray-haired, elderly man came down from the airship with a staff. Following behind him was his beautiful secretary.

"Mind your steps, Mr. Chairman," his secretary whispered.

The elderly man walked out of the airship, looked at the stairway to heaven, and said in a trembling voice, "It is really majestic. Only a god-like being like Ling Jiu could pull this off."

"Absolutely. I heard that this stairway just emerged in the Kunlun Mountains overnight." The secretary nodded in agreement.

"You guys, go ahead and try it," the elderly man said to the bodyguards on both sides. "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Seize it."

"Aye, Mr. Chairman."

Those bodyguards nodded respectfully and then walked towards the stairway. They had been waiting for this moment all along. If they succeeded, they could become stellar beings.

Becoming a stellar being was a great temptation.

They would not have worked as bodyguards anymore if they became stellar beings.

Several of them walked up to the stairway and then started to climb.

After taking only a few steps, they suddenly stopped. As if they had encountered something terrible, they screamed in horror, and then tumbled down the stairway.

A magical thing happened when they were about to hit the ground. A gentle force appeared on the ground and caught them, preventing them from crash-landing and hurting themselves.

"Ask them what was going on," the elderly man told his secretary.

"Yes, Mr. Chairman."

The secretary walked up to a bodyguard and asked him. Cold sweat trickled down the bodyguard's forehead, and there was fear in his eyes.

It took him a long while before he could speak.

"I don't know what happened. I remember nothing."

"You don't know?" The secretary was struck dumb.

The elderly man frowned gently. When these bodyguards went up the stairway, they apparently experienced some horrible things. Yet they did not remember anything?

What was going on?

"You guys go on and try again," the elderly man said.

"Aye."

The same thing happened again. Those bodyguards were terrified when they stepped onto the stairway. They could remember nothing upon returning to the ground.

That was strange.

After the bodyguards tried several times, to no avail, the elderly man gritted his teeth and boarded the stairway. But he got the same result; he was terrified the moment he stepped onto the stairway, and he could not remember what had happened after he fell.

"You go try it, Alice." The elderly man looked at his secretary.

"Yes, boss."

The secretary nodded and walked towards the stairway. She did not have any expectations. She could not see how she could make it when her boss and those bodyguards had failed.

"How can I climb this stairway?" The elderly man frowned.

His net worth was hundreds of millions of dollars and he was a highly regarded person in the world. But he was born without the self-cultivation ability, and so, always facing the threat of death.

Even if he took the Water of Life, got injections of longevity potions and things like that, he could only extend his life for a few decades. But he could never become a stellar being who could live a thousand years, let alone have a youthful body and robust health.

So after the stairway appeared, he was the first person who arrived to check it out. Now none of them could successfully climb the stairway.

"Could it be that this stairway is fake?"

Just as the elderly man thought that he had lost all hopes, there was an uproar as his bodyguards shouted. "She made it! Miss Alice is going up."

"Huh?"

The elderly man looked up to the stairway and saw his secretary, Alice, was slowly but surely going up the stairs. She did not experience the horror that they had when they tried to climb the stairs earlier.

"Alice, she…"

The elderly man and his bodyguards watched as Alice walked up the stairway and arrived at the top in the clouds.

A palace appeared in front of her eyes, and in front of the palace was an altar, on which a durian-like fruit was placed.

Just then, a light flashed in front of her. Ling Jiu, with a gentle smile, was seen appearing behind the altar quietly.

"Miss Alice, congratulations on your successful ascent of the stairway and on getting the Casmodor fruit."

"The fruit in front of you is the Casmodor fruit. Eat it and you will become a stellar being. You may eat it now."

"T-Thank you."

The secretary was excited. She grabbed the Casmodor fruit and ate it.

She had never intended to bring the fruit back down the stairway, nor did she want to give it to the elderly man.

Who would do that when this thing could make her a stellar being?

Giving it to the elderly man?

He was not her father, but just her boss who paid her salary.

"I wonder if Alice has succeeded."

There was an expectant look in the eyes of the elderly man at the base of the stairway as Alice ate the Casmodor fruit.

He hoped Alice would succeed, but at the same time, he also hoped that she would not.

Alice's success meant that there was indeed a divine fruit that could make a person become a stellar being and live a thousand years at the top of the stairway.

This would undoubtedly be good news.

On the other hand, if Alice succeeded and ate the divine fruit, she would leapfrog him into becoming a stellar being.

If that happened, he, as Alice's boss, would have to look up to his secretary, and he did not want this to happen.

So the elderly man was in a dilemma.

Bamf!

Just as the elderly man was wrestling with the thought, powerful energy came from above.

Not long after, a graceful figure flew down from the clouds and stopped in front of him. The figure was walking in the void and hovered in the air.

"A-Alice?"

The elderly man's eyes widened. He trembled as he looked at the person in front of him. His bodyguards had their jaws dropping to the ground, shock and disbelief filling their eyes.

Who could this person floating in the air be besides Alice?

"Alice, you… you have made it?" The elderly man asked.

"Yes, boss."

Landing on the ground, Alice could not hide her excitement.

"I climbed to the top of the stairway and saw Ling Jiu there. He gave me the Casmodor fruit, and I ate it. Now I am a stellar being."

"I-I can't believe that it is real!" The elderly man was just as excited as he was angry. "Then why did you take the fruit for yourself and not bring it down?

"It is impossible to bring it down, boss." Alice forced a smile. "The stairway is a test designed by Ling Jiu. Only those who pass the test will get the Casmodor fruits, and those who pass the test must eat the fruit in front of him. Takeaway is not allowed."

"How so?" The elderly man was disappointed.

"This is the rule set by Ling Jiu," Alice said slowly.

The elderly man could not find a word to respond.

Ling Jiu had no idea what was happening a few million light-years away on Earth. He was making every effort to expand the Soul Nebula.

The soul of this Evogod was strong beyond imagination.

Ling Jiu's Soul Nebula had already increased tenfold.

To put things into perspective, his Soul Nebula was 260 soul stellar units before this, but it was 2,600 soul stellar units now—a 100-time expansion.

What a terrific increase!

What an amazing improvement!

Ling Jiu had to devour the souls of countless super-clustered beings before he could achieve 260 soul stellar units.

But it just took an Evogod to expand his Soul Nebula ten times. So powerful was the soul of the Evogod.

That was not all; the most amazing part was, he got his result by just consuming a fraction of the soul fragments.

The Soul Nebula had expanded tenfold with just a fraction of the soul fragments?

That was how powerful the soul of the Evogod was.

Expanding.

Expanding.

Rapidly expanding.

The flow of time near the white hole was so fast that 500 years had passed when Ling Jiu finally woke up from his self-cultivation.

As he slowly opened his eyes, two deadly lightning bolts burst out of his eyes. They crackled and erupted with a loud, crisp sound.

This resulted from forming the soul to a certain extent and interfering with reality. From this, it was easy to see how strong Ling Jiu's soul was now.

"Have you finished the absorption, Ling Jiu?" Leoux's voice came to ears.

"Yup." Ling Jiu nodded gently, then stood up and did a stretch. Sitting for too long hurt his back, his legs cramping.

"How is it? How far has your Soul Nebula expanded?" Leoux asked with concern.

"You are not going to believe it." Ling Jiu smiled. "Seven thousand six hundred and ninety soul stellar units."

"Seven thousand six hundred and ninety? That is downright sick!" Leoux said in astonishment. "This number, even if you look at the entire history of the Evogods, is in the top ten. That's sick!"

"It is the soul of the Evogod that is impressive. It was so potent that it took me years to absorb," Ling Jiu said.

"That Evogod was sick, without a doubt," Leoux said. "The Evogod's memory tells me it had lived for seven hundred thousand years, and had absorbed the souls of seventeen other Evogods, and of many other super-clustered beings. You can imagine from this why this Evogod was so powerful."

"That Evogod devoured its own kind?" Ling Jiu was stunned. "The Evogods practiced cannibalism?"

"You bet." Leoux nodded slowly. "An Evogod is a massive collection of dark psionic energy. For other Evogods, it is the biggest source of nourishment. When the Evogods were still in existence, they had enacted laws to prohibit cannibalism. But even so, incidents of cannibalism were still common. Not to mention that the Evogods have been annihilated, and the laws have long ceased to exist."

"The extinction serves them right." Ling Jiu shook his head. "By the way, how long has it been?"

"From the time we came near this white hole, it has been nine hundred eighty years," Leoux replied.

"That's really long enough," Ling Jiu said. "Leoux, my Soul Nebula has reached 7,690 seven thousand six hundred and ninety soul stellar units. Can I proceed to the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution?"

"Of course, you can. But my advice is, you had better wait a little longer," Leoux said.

"Why is that?" Ling Jiu frowned.

"Because there are still other Evogods that you can devour."

Chapter 360: Harvest the Clones, Prison Planet

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ling Jiu was very surprised when he heard Leoux's words, "What did you say? There are other Evogods that can devour souls? How is that possible?"

"It's true!" Leoux said with a smile. "I received this information from the Evogod's memory. Like you, this fellow has also devoured the souls of other lives to expand his Soul Nebula!"

"In fact, there is no other race aside from the Evogods that is fit to possess the ability to devour others."

"Indeed!" Ling Jiu nodded.

He had devoured countless beings, including two Evodgods. In terms of soul power alone, no other being was comparable to the Evogods. Their souls were powerful, especially the second Evogod he had swallowed.

After devouring so many super-clustered lifeforms, Ling Jiu's Soul Nebula had only expanded to 260 soul stellar units. However, once he swallowed the second Evogod, his Soul Nebula expanded to 7,690 soul stellar units!

The difference was big!

Hence, Ling Jiu hoped that there would be more Evogods out there whom he could devour so that the expansion of his Soul Nebula would be more rapid.

"So, this Evogod has made several clones out of his body, taught them the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, and then deployed them to the star regions nearby to let them build their strength through cultivation training!" Leoux smiled.

"Was he trying to harvest the clones?" Ling Jiu was shocked.

"Yes, that was what his plan!" Leoux nodded slightly. "Somehow, by coincidence or fate, when he was about to devour these clones to achieve his goals—to make a breakthrough and become a cosmic life form—he encountered us. That was a GG for him. How unfortunate for him!"

"Where are those clones?"

Ling Jiu gulped and could not hide the desire in his eyes. "Leoux, I want to devour those Evogod clones to grow my Soul Nebula further!"

His Soul Nebula had reached 7,690 soul stellar units. The figure was not far from the top record achieved by the Evogods: 10,081 soul stellar units.

To break that record, Ling Jiu did not mind waiting!

"I know their locations!" Leoux replied with a smile. "To make the clones grow faster, this Evogod named Yanlong housed all of them near white holes!

"Calculations based on different time-flow speeds show that even the youngest clone has lived for 100,000 years!"

"A hundred thousand years? That's bounteous!" Ling Jiu licked his lips. "With the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, even if they never devour any souls, they should not be weak since they can absorb the Dark Psionic Energy in the universe."

"Indeed, they are not weak!"

"What are we waiting for, then? Let's go and harvest them!"

The science and technology mastered by the Evogod Yanlong were of a Grand Unified Civilization. Fortunately, although they were far advanced than Earth's technology, he could not create wormholes freely like the beings from the Emissian Civilization.

Therefore, Yanlong's radius of action was limited to a galaxy group.

His clones were housed near the Andromeda Galaxy, and the travel distance to their locations was not an issue with Leoux's speed.

The next day, Leoux arrived at in the wormhole's vicinity where Yanlong's first clone was located. There was only one planet near the wormhole.

Under ultra-fast time flow and an environment that was rich in Dark Bio-energy, the planet had evolved to a state where it could give rise to life. However, it was still a primordial planet.

The whole planet was covered in strange plants as short as grass. Hence, the land looked like a grass field.

There were herds of strange herbivores eating grass, and they looked like cows, but their mouths were in the shape of cylinders. When they ate the grass, their cylinder-shaped mouths covered a large portion of grass and wriggled constantly. It was a rather weird sight to see.

"Where is the first clone, Leoux?" Ling Jiu asked in confusion as he was looking at the extraterrestrial animals all over the mountains.

"Right among these animals!" Leoux said with a smile.

"Among these animals?" Ling Jiu was stunned. "They can't be animals with intelligence, right? How could they be the Evogods?"

The clones were also considered Evogods!

Also, these Evogods had blended in with the herd of extraterrestrial animals?

That was a stain on the Evogods' reputation!

Leoux smiled and shook his head. "The fact is, one of the Evogod clones is within the herd of animals below us!" Leoux maneuvered the battleship to capture one of the cow-like animals.

Despite struggling frantically, it could not break free from the black light shackles. Eventually, it was taken to the battleship and brought to Ling Jiu.

"Feel it carefully, Ling Jiu!" Leoux laughed.

In fact, Ling Jiu had already sensed its soul power before Leoux said so. There was a terrifying soul fluctuation coming from the extraterrestrial animal.

The power of its soul was just slightly weaker than that of the Evogod named Yanlong. It was stronger than any other super-clustered lifeforms that he had met so far. In other words, it was the second strongest soul that Ling Jiu had encountered in his life.

"What are you doing? Why have you captured me?"

While the extraterrestrial animal struggled madly, it emitted waves of soul fluctuations.

"Why have we captured you? I'm sorry to tell you that we are from the Time-Space Administration Bureau. We are authorities dedicated to hunting guys like you, who possess the bodies of others for rebirth and disruption of order!" Ling Jiu said dully.

"Your existence has seriously interfered with this planet's order, so come with us!"

"What are you saying?" When the extraterrestrial animal heard Ling Jiu's words, horror entered its eyes.

It was just a clone. Although it had acquired the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, a fearsome teaching, it had not inherited any memory about the Evogods or been to other planets.

It had spent all its life on that planet, blending in with the herd of extraterrestrial animals. It had lived on that planet for more than 200,000 years.

The moment it heard Ling Jiu's words, it was aghast. True enough, it was able to survive until today because it had been possessing the bodies of others and been reborn!

"Okay, stop talking nonsense!" Ling Jiu waved his hand. "Leoux, I'll let you handle the rest!"

"Roger that!"

Leoux did not take long to break the extraterrestrial animal into soul fragments. Ling Jiu did not leave the place. Instead, he devoured and absorbed them on the spot since the location was near a white hole.

His Soul Nebula then began to expand further.

Seven thousand seven hundred soul stellar units…

Seven thousand seven hundred and fifty soul stellar units…

Seven thousand eight hundred soul stellar units.

A hundred years later, after all the soul fragments had been exhausted, Ling Jiu's Soul Nebula had reached 7,840 soul stellar units, which meant that it had increased by 150 soul stellar units.

The growth was satisfying!

"Let's harvest the next clone!"

Thus, Ling Jiu and Leoux began their journey to harvest those clones. Before he knew it, a year had passed.

The year had passed at normal speed since they were in a normal zone instead of in the vicinity of a white hole. So, on Earth, a year had passed too.

"How many clones are left, Leoux?"

"One! The Evogod Yanlong created nine clones. We've found eight of them, so now there is only one left!"

"One? " Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "After I devour this clone, we can return to Earth! Speaking of which, how long have we been away from Earth?"

"Well, sometimes we were in the vicinity of white hole; sometimes we had to keep moving in space. Adding everything up, a total of three years has passed on Earth!" Leoux replied.

"Three years? That's not considered short!" Ling Jiu took a deep breath. "But this time, it is a great gain. My Soul Nebula has reached 9,310 soul stellar units!"

"True! Your current Soul Nebula is indeed massive. It is massive enough to be ranked third in the Evogods' several dozen million years of history." Leoux laughed. "When you devour the last clone, you might even be able to break the record of 10,081 soul stellar units and top the ranking!"

"Let's hope I can break the record!"

Ling Jiu smiled. "Even if I can't break it, it doesn't matter. By the time I devour the last clone, I will enter the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution anyway! "

"It is indeed the time for that! " Leoux nodded in agreement. "During the first stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, all you have to do is form the Soul Nebula around your soul. It is the stage where you accumulate energy. It doesn't have much effect on your soul. However, once you begin the second stage, your soul will undergo transformation!" Leoux could not help but exclaim as he got to that point. "Once your Soul Nebula—at the size of 9,000 soul stellar units—collapses, it will merge with your soul at once. The power of your soul will reach a level beyond imagination!"

"I can't wait to see that!" Ling Jiu was filled with anticipation too.

During the first stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, the Soul Nebula would just surround the Kindle of the Soul.

Therefore, no matter how big the Soul Nebula grew, the Kindle of the Soul would remain the same. At most, the Kindle of the Soul would just burn more vigorously after absorbing Dark Psionic Energy from the Soul Nebula.

However, things would be different in the second stage. In a very short time, the huge Soul Nebula would collapse and condense on the Kindle of the Soul.

One could imagine the extent of transformation that the Kindle of the Soul would undergo.

After several days of traveling, Leoux finally arrived at the planet where the last clone was located.

The whole planet was gray. There were neither oceans, forests, nor rivers, only gray land.

'Judging from its appearance, this planet does not look good. Its environment is scarce. Even if it can give rise to life forms, they can't be strong.'

Nevertheless, the moment Ling Jiu stepped on the planet's surface, he knew he was wrong.

The unremarkable gray planet emanated terrifying live fluctuations—not just one but tens of thousands!

The more bizarre part was that there was nothing beyond the tens of thousands of terrifying life fluctuations that he had detected. It was as if the entire planet only had tens of thousands of inhabitants!

"This planet… is a little bizarre!"

Ling Jiu stood high and mighty on the planet's surface while he looked at the planet under his feet. A bright glint flashed in his eyes. "This is similar to the Demon-Sealing Tower's condition!"

"You're right!" Leoux smiled and said, "This planet was originally used by the Caius Titans as a prison planet to keep death-row inmates!

"Its time flow is super fast, with a ration as high as 10,000:1!

"That means, even super-clustered lifeforms can only live on this planet for ten years!

"That's right. Ten years mean ten years in the normal region of the universe!"

"I get what you mean!"

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. The lifespan of a super-clustered life form was only 100,000 years at most. With a 10,000:1 time flow ratio, it could only live for 10 years.

"Furthermore, no planet exists within tens of thousands of light-years from this planet. Hence, even if the imprisoned criminals wanted to break out and escape from this planet, they could only rely on flights. Eventually, they would die on their way during the long interstellar journey. Tens of thousands of light-years… That's just too far away!" Leoux continued.

"Caius Titans really know how to pick a place!" Ling Jiu could not help but retort. "Such a planet is definitely a suitable location to be used as a prison. When the death-row inmates arrived here, they would have been in a dilemma to break out or not. This is just too—"

"Actually, this is normal. Many civilizations look for planets similar to this one to use them as prisons. It isn't something unusual in the universe!" Leoux said.

"All right!" Ling Jiu nodded, "Let's look for the last clone! Wait a minute. Since we're here, let's 'relieve' the inmates on this planet from their sufferings!"

"These inmates have to continue to suffer on this planet even though the Caius Titans have already been annihilated. Their lives are just too hard!"

"Okay! Let's 'relieve' them!" The two had been together for many years, so Leoux knew the underlying meaning of Ling Jiu's words. He laughed when he heard Ling Jiu and happily accepted the suggestion.

"Let's go!"

With a word, Ling Jiu blinked onto the planet. Once he arrived there, he felt a terrifying gravitational pressure on him.

"This gravity…" Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

"The gravity of this planet is 130 times that of Earth!" Leoux replied.

"No wonder!"

To Ling Jiu, gravity that was 130 times that of Earth was not an issue. He began to take a good look at the prison planet, which was specially used to imprison death-row inmates.

The sky was dark and groggy like ink. Among the thick black clouds, there were streaks of lightning flashing back and forth.

The ground was as black as burned coal, as though it had been burned by a fire or blasted by a nuclear bomb.

In addition, there were black stones, black plains, and black hillocks… It seemed that the whole world was black!

As Ling Jiu looked around the unfamiliar environment, he could not help shaking his head. "Having to live on such a planet is really a nightmare. The inmates here are so pitiful!"

"Well, it is a prison planet, a place equivalent to a prison facility on Earth. You can't expect the environment of a prison to be good, right?" Leoux laughed.

"That's true!"

Ling Jiu started to sense for life forms, and he immediately detected the first target. With just a step, he arrived in the location where it was.

The place was a hillock with a height of about one hundred meters. It was black with no sight of grass. At the foot of the hillock, there was a three-meter-tall cave.

"I know you've found us. Come out!"

Hiram was a native of Prison VIII. He had lived on the planet since he was born.

Prison VIII was a planet with a very poor environment. Hiram did not understand why he had been born there. He had heard from his elders that his ancestors, who had been exiled there forever after committing a felony, had lived, multiplied, and settled on the planet.

Hiram hated his ancestors. From his point of view, if they had not committed a felony, he would not have gotten implicated and been born there.

The planet was hell. Its environment was extremely harsh, and it lacked resources. Basic necessity such as food was scarce too!

Yet, the greatest threat was not the lack of food but other people on the planet.

The place was chaotic and lawless. Neither humanity nor rules existed. There was only one rule, survival of the fittest!

On the planet, the weak ones were food and slaves. Only the strong ones who topped the food chain were qualified to survive there.

Therefore, the weak tended to stay hidden, and they desperately built their strength through cultivation training.

Fortunately, the planet was extremely rich with Dark Bio-energy. It helped better attainment in cultivation training.

Hiram was a genius. He had become a super-clustered life form when he was only 5,000 years old.

However, Hiram dared not to let his guard down because super-clustered life forms were not the strongest life forms on the planet. He was still exposed to the risk of getting killed.

Hiram had been lying low for 5,000 years. Long years of caution had heightened his vigilance to the max.

He had noticed Ling Jiu's presence when Ling Jiu had shown up, so he had hidden inside a cave and stayed alert. He was keeping Ling Jiu under his watchful eye.

If the person was weaker than him, he would kill him without hesitation and feed on his meat. He could not recall when was the last time he had eaten.

If the person was stronger than him, he would restrain his own aura and lie low until the person left.

Unexpectedly, a dull voice rang in his ears. "Show yourself. I know you've found me!"

Hiram became stiff and hesitated suddenly. As a person walking in the dark, he had to lie low in the corners and ambush his opponent rather than face them openly.

"What should I do?" Hiram was caught in a dilemma.

Chapter 361: Nebula Collapse, Painful Unification

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"What should I do?" Hiram was caught in a dilemma.

"You don't want to come out? Very well then, I'm coming in!"

At that moment, a voice rang out, followed by footsteps. Hiram's hearing told him that there was only one person on the other side!

Who is it? Who the hell is out there?'

As the question darted across Hiram's mind, his body tensed, and he got ready to attack.

Once his opponent entered the cave, he would launch a thunder attack, killing his opponent swiftly.

He had done it before, and he was going to do it today!

Creak, creak, creak…

Creak, creak, creak…

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. They were about to reach him! As Hiram was about to launch a strike, he saw how the person looked.

He could not help but be stunned at the next moment.

Weird outfit…

Odd appearance…

Strange looks.

However, that was not the point.

The point was, the person's clothes were too clean!

It was unbelievable!

There was no water on Prison VIII. Every single person on the planet was sloppy and dirty!

"Could he be… a newcomer?" A thought immediately crossed Hiram's mind. "Yes! Only newcomers would rush into a cave occupied by others. Only newcomers are this bold!"

Hiram became even more bloodthirsty while the thought passed through his mind. He leaped out and turned into a lightning burst to strike his opponent.

"You're gonna attack me?"

Ling Jiu smiled and did not bother to dodge or avoid the attack. He launched a mental attack only when Hiram's strike was about to hit him.

Boom!

The mental attack was also a soul attack.

The stronger Ling Jiu's soul was, the more terrifyingly powerful the mental attack!

The greater the gap between the target and Ling Jiu, the more significant the effect of his mental attack!

Ling Jiu had reached the pinnacle of a super-clustered being, and his soul had attained the same level. Therefore, no other super-clustered life forms could withstand his current mental attack.

Boom!

Hiram fell to the ground holding his head as if he had been struck by lightning. He then screamed in agony.

Although the blow did not crush Hiram's soul, it was not far off.

"It's a pity that my soul isn't strong enough. If I had entered the second stage of Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, my soul would have been stronger, and this blow would have been powerful enough to shake and break this fellow's soul apart!" Ling Jiu shook his head. With a wave of his hand, he brought Hiram into the Inner World of his body (the Flame Astral Behemoth). Hiram then got swallowed alive.

"Leoux, let's continue 'rescuing' the rest!"

"Roger!"

Thus, Ling Jiu followed the fluctuations of life he had picked up, searching for every single life form on the planet.

The situation was the same as he had gauged earlier. All life forms on the planet were extremely powerful even though the planet was sparsely populated. Even the weakest had grown to become a Level 1 super-clustered beings.

"Having to live on such a planet, all of you need salvation!"

There were two ways to relieve them from their sufferings, either kill them or make them gardeners!

As for how that was decided, it all depended on Ling Jiu's mood. If they were not pleasing to his eyes, like Hiram, he would just slay them.

If they were pleasing to his eyes, he would just directly take them to the battleship, the Leoux to brainwash and reform them. Eventually, they would be sent to the Floating Island.

It all depended on Ling Jiu's mood!

In less than one year of his "rescue mission", he had managed to capture all life forms on the planet, including the Evogod's last clone.

However, the clone was Ling Jiu's last catch.

"You mean, it has been manipulating everything on this planet?" Ling Jiu looked at Leoux. He was flabbergasted.

"Yes!" Leoux nodded slightly. "The last clone is the Uncrowned King of this planet. It manipulates everything behind the curtains!"

"Its ultimate goal is to devour souls that are powerful enough. It would secretly offer protection for the weak and small ones, as well as save them from being killed! However, once the weak have grown up with successful attainment in cultivation training, it would harvest them by killing them so that it could be stronger!

"It is precisely because of its covert manipulation that the life forms on this planet have been able to multiply and increase their descendants from generation to generation. Otherwise, they would have gone extinct!"

Ling Jiu was surprised.

The Caius Titans had been annihilated 5,000 years ago, and the time flow on the planet was ten thousand times that of the normal region. In other words, 50,000,000 years had passed on the planet.

Having to stay on such a resource-scarce planet for 50,000,000 years, any species could become extinct if anything went wrong. But somehow, the life forms on the planet had been able to have many descendants persistently.

Suffice to say, there was indeed someone who had been manipulating things covertly.

"In other words, the ninth clone has lived for longer than 50,000,000 years?" Ling Jiu said in disbelief.

"It's not exactly that long, but it's close!" Leoux nodded slightly. "Yanlong created the clones after he annihilated the Caius Titans and fully occupied the Andromeda Galaxy!

"The last clone was also the last one he housed on this planet. Calculation of time shows that it should be 39,000,000 years old!"

"Thirty-nine million years old!"

Ling Jiu could not believe it. "Wasn't Yanlong worried that this clone will overpower him? Things could turn against him. He could have gone for wool and come home shorn."

"You are overthinking it!" Leoux smiled. "This planet is lacking resources. In addition, the number of life forms it can devour is limited. Hence, even though the ninth clone has survived for a long time, there is no way it can get too powerful. However, there is no doubt that it is stronger than the previous eight clones. "

"The stronger, the better!" Ling Jiu could not wait to devour it. "I hope it can make my Soul Nebula grow past the 10,000 mark. It would be even better if my Soul Nebula can break the Evogods' record!"

"That should be a piece of cake!"

"Let's start!"

"Aye!"

As the steady stream of soul fragments entered Ling Jiu's body, his Soul Nebula began to expand further in his sea of consciousness.

Nine thousand three hundred and twenty soul stellar units…

Nine thousand three hundred and fifty soul stellar units…

Nine thousand four hundred soul stellar units.

The speed of Prison VIII's time flow was unparalleled. Time flew rapidly on the planet. Unknowingly, three hundred years had passed.

Over the past three hundred years, Ling Jiu had been monitoring his sea of consciousness closely. The soul fragments had been exhausted, so his Soul Nebula had stopped expanding.

Now, his Soul Nebula was a massive size and seemingly endless. There was no end as far as the eye could reach.

There was only a huge spiral nebula constantly revolving around the Kindle of the Soul.

"Ling Jiu, what size has your Soul Nebula reached?"

"Ten thousand and eighty-one soul stellar units!"

"Ten thousand and eighty-one soul stellar units?! What a coincidence! It just happens to be the record achieved by the Evogods!"

"It shouldn't be a coincidence. My Soul Nebula could no longer take in more Dark Psionic Energy once it reached 10,081 soul stellar units!" Ling Jiu sighed.

The ninth clone's soul was very powerful, and Ling Jiu's Soul Nebula was forcibly pushed to 10,081 soul stellar units, the same record set by the Evogods.

However, the problem was that there was still plenty of Dark Psionic Energy left in his body, but it could not enter his sea of consciousness!

No matter how he tried to transfer the remaining Dark Psionic Energy, it just could not enter his sea of consciousness.

It was as if his sea of consciousness was so full that it could not accommodate more Dark Psionic Energy!

Since the Dark Psionic Energy could not go through, his Soul Nebula could not expand further.

Ling Jiu did not know the cause. He could only conclude that a Soul Nebula had its limit!

The size of 10,081 soul stellar units was the maximum for a Soul Nebula!

Leoux's reaction was quick as a question flashed through its mind. "Could the Soul Nebula… have a limit?"

"We are on the same page!" Ling Jiu nodded slightly.

"That's strange! A Soul Nebula actually has a limit!" Leoux was surprised, "No wonder the Evogods' record is 10,081 soul stellar units. It can only grow to this extent!"

"Forget it. It does not matter if I cannot break the record. Now, the most important thing is to enter the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution! " Ling Jiu said slowly.

"The second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, forming the Soul Primordial Stars!" Leoux further elaborated, "It is specifically to break the Soul Nebula's existing balance to let it collapse!"

Ling Jiu responded with a slight nod.

The current mass of Ling Jiu's Soul Nebula was amazing. It was like a huge gas cluster that maintained a delicate balance under the gravitational effect.

Once the gravitational force was removed, the balance would break. Affected by gravity, the Soul Nebula would then collapse toward the Kindle of the Soul at the center.

During the process, massive Dark Psionic Energy particles would be forced into the Kindle of the Soul and finally be assimilated with it.

That was the collapse of Soul Nebula!

Imagine a large energy cluster, the size of 10,081 stars, being forced into the Kindle of the Soul. What would happen to the Kindle of the Soul?

The Kindle of the Soul would inflate. It would expand continuously to an extent beyond imagination!

As the Kindle of the Soul expanded, Ling Jiu's soul would naturally become stronger and stronger.

The issue was while the Soul Nebula collapsed, Ling Jiu would suffer great pain!

"The collapse can be extremely painful!" Leoux warned Ling Jiu. "The pain will be inconceivable, unparalleled to any pain that you have ever imagined!

"Moreover, the Dark Psionic Energy contained in your Soul Nebula is too massive. It is ten thousand trillion times larger than your soul. If anything goes wrong, your soul will suffer a great impact, and it can turn you into a ret*rd!

"So, you have to be mentally prepared in advance!"

"I've come this far. There's no turning back." Ling Jiu wore an unrestrained smile. "Let's get started. I'm already hungry and thirsty!"

"You have to hang in there!"

Leoux shook its head. With a thought in his mind, it released a wave of gravitational force, which swept across Ling Jiu's sea of consciousness.

The next moment, the Soul Nebula, which had been quietly revolving around the Kindle of the Soul, suddenly fell apart. It looked like a snowy mountain or a skyscraper that was collapsing.

Affected by gravity, Dark Psionic Energy particles rushed toward the Kindle of the Soul at the center from all directions amid the muffled sound of rumbling.

How big was the mass of 10,081 stars?

It was unimaginable!

When a star with more than seven times the mass of the sun met its end, it would form a stellar black hole.

What would happen when a star with 10,081 times the mass of the sun suddenly collapsed?

The massive Dark Psionic Energy particles would instantly move toward the Kindle of the Soul and squeeze together. They would immediately merge with Ling Jiu's Kindle of the Soul.

It would be a true unification!

When an atom was squeezed, an extranuclear electron would unite with an intranuclear proton to form a neutron. Similarly, Dark Psionic Energy particles would merge with the Kindle of the Soul, and they would be pressed into a sphere.

"Arghh!!!"

Right then, inconceivable, terrifying pain instantly erupted from Ling Jiu's soul. It was as if it was crushing Ling Jiu's body into meatloaf, squeezing his soul violently. He almost collapsed from the pain.

"This pain!!!" Ling Jiu screamed uncontrollably. He held his head in his hands and rolled on the ground.

Regardless of how remarkable his mental state was at his level of cultivation…

Regardless of how terrifying his level of pain resistance was…

At that moment, Ling Jiu felt broken. The pain that emerged from the depths of his soul was greater than any pain he had suffered in the past. It came like a huge wave, constantly hitting his soul.

It was painful!

It was painful!

It was painful!

"You have to hang in there, Ling Jiu!"

Leoux was looking at Ling Jiu, whose entire body was trembling. The pain distorted Ling Jiu's face. At times, he would be in pain; other times, he would look mad; sometimes, he would scream in agony. Leoux's heart could not help but tremble at the sight too.

He knew exactly what Ling Jiu was going through right then. Why was the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution regarded as the supreme secret book of the soul?

On one hand, it was a powerful teaching!

On the other, it was difficult to practice!

The first stage, forming the Soul Nebula, was actually the simplest. It only required the cultivator to accumulate Dark Psionic Energy for many years and keep expanding the Soul Nebula.

It did not involve much pain!

The real pain took place only when the cultivator entered the second stage. In the history of the Evogods, many Evogods had fallen alive because they could not bear the suffering from the collapse of their Soul Nebula.

That just showed how much pain a cultivator would feel when their Soul Nebula collapsed!

Moreover, Ling Jiu's Soul Nebula was even larger. It was the size of 10,081 soul stellar units, which had far surpassed the Soul Nebula of countless Evogods!

Therefore, the pain he felt was more intense!

"Hang in there!"

Leoux prayed silently. As an intelligent life form, he did not believe in praying, but at that moment, praying was all he could do.

Boom!

Endless Dark Psionic Energy continued to collapse and merge with the Kindle of the Soul. Meanwhile, the Kindle of the Soul continued to expand further and further.

As a result of merging with too many Dark Psionic Energy particles, the Kindle of the Soul was no longer in the form of a flame. It was spherical.

Yes, spherical!

Plus, the Kindle of the Soul, which was now spherical, was inflating and growing continuously. Not only did it look crystal clear, it was also very sturdy!

As the compression and hitting continued without stopping, the spherical Kindle of the Soul became increasingly concentrated, tougher, and denser…

Time flew rapidly.

One hundred years…

Four hundred years…

Nine hundred years…

In a blink of an eye, 1,000 years had passed!

The spherical Kindle of the Soul had expanded to the size of a stellar star. It was now glowing like a dazzling star.

Nevertheless, the Soul Nebula had only shrunk a little!

It was still collapsing!

It was still collapsing!

It kept collapsing!

Two thousand years…

Three thousand years…

Four thousand years…

Unknowingly, 10,000 years had passed. At that point, the Kindle of the Soul sphere had expanded to a size equivalent to 10 suns.

"Hopefully, Ling Jiu can survive!" Leoux sighed.

Ling Jiu was still in pain at this time, but he had seemingly become numb to it. He was lying still on the ground with no expression as if he was asleep.

Such numbness to pain made Leoux worry. It was because the unbearable pain had put many Evogods into a vegetative state as a result of the massive Dark Psionic Energy!

Although their souls had become extremely powerful, their minds, consciousness, and memories had all been washed away. Thus, they had become the walking dead!

Leoux did not wish to see Ling Jiu in such a state!

Eleven thousand years…

Twelve thousand years…

Thirteen thousand years…

His Soul Nebula continued to collapse.

The Kindle of the Soul sphere continued to expand.

The squeezing pain continued to persist.

"It's been 20,000 years!"

"Twenty thousand years!

"When will it end?" Leoux sighed.

Right then, blood was pouring out of Ling Jiu's broken skin and flesh like a stream. However, since a super-clustered life form's body came with powerful resilience, his body kept healing itself.

His skin and flesh were broken repeatedly.

His blood poured out endlessly.

His body healed itself constantly.

His body had been in a state of collapse since the beginning.

It was just a reaction to the severe pain when the soul was being torn apart. It just showed how severe the pain from a torn soul was.

"Ling Jiu, please hang in there!" Leoux continued, "I don't want to end up seeing a brainless r*tard with no consciousness, who only possesses an extremely powerful soul after all our effort!"

Leoux sighed. "Perhaps, I shouldn't have let him practice the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution back then. With his capability and the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar, even if he didn't cultivate his soul, he could have stood steadily at the pinnacle of the universe…"
