Chapter 794 Visiting Wu Ming
How did Wu Ming become so powerful? Gumo found some relief in the situation. Luckily, I sensed his incredible potential and found a way to extend some kindness to the human race. He ought to be grateful for the customized miniature universe I arranged for their migration.
As long as I keep my distance, he probably won't trouble my Void Celestials, right? Gumo pondered to himself.
It couldn't be helped; the Void Celestials had clashed with humans for far too long, accumulating numerous grudges. Gumo was already content that they could coexist from a distance.
…
In Feather Fire City.
When the Ultimate Land collapsed and countless half-step third-realm powerhouses vanished, only Xu Jingming remained unscathed. Moreover, a vast multitude of characters surged into his body.
Many half-step third-realm powerhouses bore witness to this spectacle, so news spread like wildfire! It reached Feather Fire City with exceptional speed—even Gumo became aware of it.
"I nurtured my weapon, Ten Directions Thunder Hell, for over ten Abyssal Eras. Through karma, I can ascertain that it now resides in the South Pavilion 3609 Dominion! To be exact, it's on Myriad Star Island where Wu Ming resides." A single-horned creature swept its gaze across the invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns gathered around.
"Through karma, I can confirm the whereabouts of my two third-realm weapons as well. They too are on Myriad Star Island," another white-winged being chimed in.
"Mine too."
"All of them are on Myriad Star Island."
These invincible Abyss Sovereigns, possessing numerous weapons and treasures, were quite wealthy. However, when venturing into the Ultimate Land, they brought weapons that best suited their needs.
This time, their clones perished in the Ultimate Land, and the most fitting weapon was lost there.
"A total of 825 friends are attending this gathering. We've all assembled here to discuss how we can retrieve our weapons!" a figure cloaked in gray robes and black mist declared. "There's no doubt that our lost weapons are all on Myriad Star Island, in the possession of Wu Ming! Everyone, tell me how we should retrieve them from him."
"Wu Ming won't easily return these third-realm weapons and treasures to us."
"Numerous half-step third-realm powerhouses from various factions converged at the Ultimate Land. Feather Fire City is just one of them. The number of third-realm weapons and treasures he has acquired is immeasurable. Our thousand-plus items mean nothing to him. I believe he would give them away for the sake of friendship."
"Yes, he probably has over a million weapons and treasures! Even if he gives away a thousand, so what? They wouldn't suit him like they suit us."
"Don't delude yourselves. If Wu Ming looks down on us and refuses to hand them over, what will we do?"
"Wu Ming possesses immense strength, surpassing us in one-on-one combat. Now that he has obtained a tremendous opportunity in the entire Ultimate Land, why would he show interest in us?"
"We can try negotiating. Even if we have to purchase them at their true value, it should be acceptable. Finding a third-realm weapon that suits us isn't easy."
"But what if Wu Ming deliberately raises the price by several times?"
"With over 800 invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns joining forces, we won't allow Wu Ming to take advantage of us."
"We may not be able to defeat him individually, but with our combined strength, he won't be able to stop us!"
Some of the present powerhouses voiced their thoughts, while others observed coldly from the sidelines.
Everyone was eager to join the gathering, having already made their decision.
"Very well, since no one objects, we shall embark together. Over 800 powerhouses will converge upon Wu Ming, a display of our profound respect for him. We shall adhere to the plan, employing courtesy before resorting to force. Our utmost effort shall be dedicated to resolving this matter through negotiation," declared the figure draped in gray robes and black mist.
"We represent nearly half of Feather Fire City's invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns. I trust that Wu Ming will be discerning when it is time to yield."
"Let us proceed."
Swiftness held significance in times of war. Without delay, these powerhouses departed from Feather Fire City and headed to South Pavilion 3609 Dominion.
Feather Fire City teemed with half-step third-realm powerhouses, but the number of invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns was meager. Hence, when these formidable beings set off, their departure went relatively unnoticed, causing little commotion.
Whoosh!
Each possessing unique strengths—masters of the Heart Realm, the Mother Stream, and the Abyss lineage—they swiftly journeyed together.
The South Pavilion 3609 Dominion shall be within our reach shortly, contemplated the 800-plus powerhouses, each harboring their own thoughts.
Contacting so many powerhouses with the sole purpose of reclaiming the third-realm weapons? Hmph, there is a high likelihood that they are after the opportunities left behind by Ultimate beings.
Ultimate beings will not interfere in the battles between half-step third-realm powerhouses like us. If only I could acquire a fraction of the opportunities left behind by an Ultimate being, my chances of ascending to the third realm would multiply.
Within the Ultimate Land, I have deciphered countless enigmatic characters, sensing a path that transcends time itself. Wu Ming must possess an even greater opportunity.
Thoughts of this nature swirled within them, yet none dared to voice them aloud.
Their claim was solely to retrieve the third-realm weapons, but in truth, they were invincible at the half-step third realm. They possessed extensive knowledge, and the disparity between the most suitable weapon for them and a slightly inferior third-realm weapon was marginal.
Lonely and invincible for far too long, the third realm held the greatest allure.
Scattered and mysterious characters offered them a glimmer of hope. As for Wu Ming—who had attained the greatest opportunity within the Ultimate Land—how immense was that opportunity? They dared not entertain hopes of obtaining everything, but acquiring even a sliver of opportunity could potentially alter their fates.
"Let us proceed from here."
Invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses of the Abyss lineage and the Mother Stream lineage discovered a peculiar path through the Abyss, assisted by the Heart Realm teleportation of their comrades.
In a mere three hours, over 800 invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns arrived at the South Pavilion 3609 Dominion.
"We are nearing Myriad Star Island." Their sights were set upon Myriad Star Island.
…
"What's happening?" The other three half-step third-realm Ancient Tree World Lord, Thearch Dragon Island Lord, and North River Boat Master sensed a disturbance in the South Pavilion 3609 Dominion. After all, there were only a limited number of invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns in Feather Fire City, and most of them were acquainted with Ancient Tree World Lord.
So many invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns have gathered here?
Curiosity piqued, Ancient Tree World Lord and North River Boat Master followed the pull of karma, cautiously probing the surroundings outside of Myriad Star Island.
A staggering total of 825 figures caused both the Ancient Tree World Lord and North River Boat Master's hearts to tremble.
Feather Fire City usually houses around 1,000 invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns. Are half of them present here?
Who can withstand their combined might?
Ancient Tree World Lord, North River Boat Master, and the others dared not reveal themselves.
Although Xu Jingming could vanquish invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses in one-on-one combat within the Ultimate Land, he had to retreat when faced with the alliance of eight to ten invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses!
And now, more than 800 individuals were moving together?
It was a terrifying sight to behold!
…
"Myriad Star Island, we have arrived!"
A gathering of 825 figures emerged, transcending distant spacetime to converge outside the magnificent Myriad Star Island. As the bustling trading hub of the South Pavilion 3609 Dominion, Myriad Star Island regularly welcomed a multitude of high-dimensional beings for commerce and exchange.
"Who are these people?"
Over 800 unfamiliar powerhouses stood before their gaze.
Observing from afar, more than 100,000 high-dimensional beings within the trading area held their breath. The overwhelming presence of invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns sent shivers down their spines. Just witnessing the scene from a distance filled them with dread.
The dean, Tower Master, Island Lord, Redmond, and Meng Tian were not oblivious to the gathering. They made their way to the edge of the island, casting their attentive gazes upon the 800-plus formidable beings sheltered beneath the island's protection.
"What sort of high-dimensional beings are these?" Redmond whispered via voice transmission. "I don't recognize any of them."
"I know a few," Spacetime Island Lord responded with a grave expression. "They are renowned invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns. Judging from their auras, I believe all 800-plus individuals are invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns."
The five of them wore solemn expressions.
Abyss Sovereigns were already entities of dread, embodying the pinnacle of the Abyss Sacrifice discipline, each wielding command over a complete Abyssal domain.
Invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses were even more scarce! Every single one of them held unimaginable accumulations.
Within the vast dominion under the influence of Feather Fire Lord, there were less than 2,000 invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns in total. Almost half of them had gathered here.
"Everyone, everyone."
Suddenly, a voice resounded, piercing through spacetime. Thearch Dragon Island Lord tore through the fabric of reality and smiled at the assembly of over 800 powerhouses. "What brings you all to our dominion? If there is a matter at hand, feel free to let me know. Mobilizing such a formidable force seems unnecessary."
At that moment, Ancient Tree World Lord and North River Boat Master dared not reveal themselves. Thearch Dragon Island Lord displayed a measure of courage. After all, as a personal disciple of a third-realm existence, he boasted numerous connections within Feather Fire City. Usually, everyone deferred to his authority.
However, on this day, Thearch Dragon Island Lord's confidence wasn't unwavering. Over 800 terrifying beings had the potential to obliterate his clone with a mere leakage of their aura.
With my Master protecting me, at the very least, my life will remain intact. It is moments like these that call for bravery. Thearch Dragon Island Lord steeled himself.
Ancient Tree World Lord and the others refrained from revealing themselves out of fear that all their clones would be annihilated.
"Naturally, we are here today to pay a visit to Brother Wu Ming," declared the figure cloaked in gray robes and black mist, leading the assembly.
"Brother Wu Ming has brought great honor to Feather Fire City within the Ultimate Land. We have come to offer our respects in person."
…
On Myriad Star Island.
Xu Jingming was in seclusion.
He immersed himself in the profound study of the 100 Heart Tribulation Spear Scrolls, the legacy bestowed upon him by the Ultimate existence. Having already achieved a breakthrough within the palace complex and undergone a transformative experience, Xu Jingming had garnered the recognition of the Ultimate existence, receiving this extraordinary legacy.
In possession of the complete legacy, a spark of inspiration ignited within Xu Jingming. Thus, upon his return, he immediately withdrew from the world's affairs and dedicated himself entirely to the pursuit of knowledge.
This is but a psychic spear technique of the third realm. If I can truly master it, I shall ascend into the third realm, mused Xu Jingming with a fervent heart, his focus unwavering on the task at hand.
Suddenly—
A faint inkling washed over him—the sensation of formidable auras approaching Myriad Star Island. The sheer number of them was overwhelming, already encroaching upon Xu Jingming's warning line.
"Jingming, Jingming!" The dean, Tower Master, and the others anxiously reached out to contact him.
"Father-in-law." Meng Tian's voice resounded with concern.
Never before had they encountered an invincible half-step third-realm powerhouse, so how could they not be struck with panic in the face of over 800 such beings and Abyss Sovereigns?
"Hmph."
Frustrated, Xu Jingming abruptly halted his studies and was confronted by the sight of numerous formidable beings surrounding Myriad Star Island. In an instant, he vanished and materialized beside the dean and the rest, who anxiously awaited him at the island's edge.
"Jingming!" The dean, Tower Master, Island Lord, Redmond, and Meng Tian caught sight of Xu Jingming.
"Leave it to me." Xu Jingming's expression betrayed his dissatisfaction. Being interrupted while immersed in profound insights could hardly put one in a pleasant mood.
"Brother Wu Ming."
The assembled figures, led by the gray-robed individual emanating black mist, smiled and addressed Xu Jingming, saying, "Today, we have come with the sole purpose of paying you a visit."
