Chapter 443: Journey to the Universe’s Apex (2)
“Speak,” Qi Chen said.
“Please arrange for someone to rebuild my original residence,” Xu Jingming said. “If someone refers to himself by the name ‘Wu Qi’ and visits me one day… Please inform me.”
If Uncle Qi broke through to become a Lv. 7 or even a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform, he might establish an account to enter the Demon Vanquishing World. When that happened, they might meet again.
“Wu Qi?” Qi Chen smiled and said, “It’s nothing; leave it to me. Even if my body dies, I’ll descend into the Qi family again! Even if I have to leave the Demon Vanquishing World one day, I’ll entrust it to the head of the Qi family.”
“Sorry to trouble you, Brother Qi Chen. If the Demon Vanquishing World is ever in trouble, feel free to inform me. I’ll immediately descend and help,” Xu Jingming said with a smile.
“With a promise from an expert like you, I’m relieved.” Qi Chen chuckled, and his expression changed slightly. “From what you’re saying, you plan on leaving the Demon Vanquishing World?”
“Yes, I plan on leaving.” Xu Jingming nodded.
Uncle Qi had left, and so had Senior Brother Gu Shan. There was no progress in refining Heaven Demon Yu Xin either. He wanted to temporarily leave and try other methods to hone his mind.
“I’ll make a move first.” Xu Jingming smiled and disappeared into thin air, leaving the Demon Vanquishing World.
Qi Chen was a little disappointed and frustrated. Brother Wu Ming came and left in a hurry, and he had only stayed in the Demon Vanquishing World for about ten years.
…
Gu Shan’s thoughts are truly unfathomable. Li Jinge condensed his demon body again and stood on the mountaintop, looking at the vast land. The path he planned for me is much more brilliant than I originally imagined.
Perhaps I can really succeed. Li Jinge eyes burned.
After his mind collided with Gu Shan, Li Jinge also felt that he had grown. Then, Gu Shan finally took the initiative to let him go.
Gu Shan, I don’t know what you’re up to, but thank you. Li Jinge’s figure turned into black mist and disappeared.
******
Earth, in the cultivation chamber at Xu Jingming’s house.
Whoosh.
Whoosh.
There was a protective shield in the cultivation chamber, and the girl—Xu Lixing—was attacking frantically in her training attire. She used boxing and kicking techniques, delivering one combo after another. After all, she was a genius girl who had reached Lv. 5, so her attacks were quite incisive.
Xu Jingming countered every move. He restrained his strength and controlled his speed.
His strength and speed were weaker than his daughter’s, but he still easily blocked her strikes.
Bang!
As he blocked his daughter’s kick, he tapped his daughter’s shoulder with his finger.
Xu Lixing frowned slightly, pursed her lips, and continued attacking.
Chi.
As he swept past his daughter’s arm, he tapped in between her brows.
After fighting for a moment, she stood still in a daze.
“Dad, your speed and strength were suppressed to a lower level than mine, but in less than a minute, you injured me 19 times. Nine of those times were fatal.” Xu Lixing looked at her father with confusion in her eyes. “What’s going on? I clearly feel that your moves were very ordinary, but you easily defeated me.”
“Think it through,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “Watch the video of the battle in slow motion. If you don’t understand it in three days, ask me again.”
“Okay.” Xu Lixing stood there in a daze, still thinking about their previous exchange.
“Have some fruit.” Li Miaomiao walked over with fruits from the corner of the cultivation chamber.
Xu Jingming reached out and picked up an apple. His daughter was still in a daze.
“You’ve been spending more time with our daughter recently,” Li Miaomiao said with a smile.
“Since she’s talented, she needs to be groomed well,” Xu Jingming replied. “Moreover, our daughter will soon become a cosmic lifeform. We have to make her feel the gap and realize that her strength is still very ordinary.”
There were countless people with his daughter’s talent across the vast universe.
“I’m speechless.” She walked to her daughter with the fruits. “Lixing, have some fruit first. You can think about it later.”
Xu Jingming smiled and turned to leave.
He strolled on the grass in his courtyard and thought to himself, Which method should I try to increase my mental strength next?
Xu Jingming looked up at the sky.
Whoosh.
His entire body disappeared into thin air.
When he appeared again, he was already in outer space on Earth. He stood there and looked at the endless, resplendent cosmos.
There are many ways to increase one’s mental strength. The top ten methods all have their own uniqueness. Demon Vanquishing World is indisputably ranked first. I’ve tried Demon Vanquishing World. Which one should I choose next?
Xu Jingming was also a little hesitant. After all, once one was immersed in it, it could take years or even centuries.
He had to be careful.
“Young Master, you should care more about yourself. Humans only live this long; it’s better to do something you like and are happy with.” Uncle Qi’s last words of concern suddenly surfaced in Xu Jingming’s mind, and he couldn’t help but smile.
Alright, I’ll choose one that’s my favorite and delights me the most. Xu Jingming made a decision.
…
Virtual world, Xu Jingming’s personal space.
Xu Jingming stood in the spaceship’s hall and looked at the countless tiny virtual worlds that appeared in front of him. He smiled and tapped the most eye-catching world placed front and center.
Buzz.
Xu Jingming tapped gently and entered.
This was a free virtual world.
“Xu Jingming, welcome to the world of Life Evolution.”
He was very familiar with the scene in front of him. This was because Earth’s virtual world was a simplified version of Life Evolution.
As the virtual world with the longest history in the entire cosmic human race… Even though many modes were considered backward, it was still the most popular world in the entire cosmic human race.
Its popularity far exceeded that of any other virtual world.
The reason why Life Evolution’s popularity is number one among cosmic humans is mainly because of two modes that attract countless people. Xu Jingming looked at the scene in front of him.
First is the professional league. The various Star Alliances have some teams, and many teams compete with each other. In the end, the ten strongest teams will be selected to represent the entire Hunter Cosmic Sector… and continue competing with the other cosmic sectors. When that happens, it will attract the entire cosmic human race to watch and cheer for their respective cosmic sectors.
The competition between 34 cosmic sectors and 340 teams will be an entertainment bonanza for all humans in the universe.
The other mode is the Battle of the Universe’s Apex. This is a one-on-one battle, and the threshold to participate is a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform. Those who are slightly famous are all at the limit of Lv. 8.
Peak Lv. 8 experts fight one-on-one in pursuit of their limits. The rankings will be determined based on their achievements. The experts ranked in the top ten of every Star Alliance are celebrity-like figures, and they garner a massive audience for every match. As for the experts ranked in the top ten of every cosmic sector… they are even more dazzling. Almost all of them can break through to become an Origin lifeform.
The Battle of the Universe’s Apex’s competition is intense. The top ten in the Star Alliance draws most of the popularity. It’s very difficult for the experts ranked at the bottom to make a name for themselves. Participating in the professional league is a very good method.
The gap between being ranked 100th and 10th wasn’t too great.
When it was 5v5, it tested the quintet’s intelligence and teamwork. Therefore, it was enough as long as one’s individual combat strength reached a certain level.
But clearly, the Battle of the Universe’s Apex attracts experts more, Xu Jingming thought to himself. For example, time is precious for the peerless geniuses of top factions. They aren’t willing to join a team and accept a team’s professional management.
Therefore, there were more experts in the Battle of the Universe’s Apex. They were of higher value and more popular.
They are one-on-one life-and-death battles before victory is decided.
Xu Jingming’s heart raced. Pursuing the apex in the cosmic human race?
Having practiced spearmanship since he was a child, he had a heartfelt love for weaponry combat. Even in the Demon Vanquishing World, his focus was on cultivating his Divine Body because he liked close combat.
After becoming an Origin lifeform, one spends all their effort studying science and the various ways to use the Force. An Origin lifeform’s combat is actually their understanding of the Force. Instead, the limit of Lv. 8 is solely about weapon techniques, he thought. This is also the apex of combat techniques.
This is it.
Xu Jingming looked forward to fighting all the experts in the universe. He reached out and tapped gently.
Buzz—
“Please begin your journey to the Universe’s Apex.” A voice sounded, and Xu Jingming entered the preparatory interface for Battle of the Universe’s Apex.
There was his data on the interface—
Name: Wu Ming (changeable)
Oohook Star Alliance Ranking: 36932
Hunter Cosmic Sector Ranking: None (not in the top 100,000)
Overall Universe Ranking: None (not in the top one million)
Xu Jingming had played occasionally during his relaxing hours. With his peak Lv. 8 strength, although he didn’t play much, he had a placing of around 30,000 in the Oohook Star Alliance. He didn’t have a ranking in Hunter Cosmic Sector or the entire cosmic human race.
