Cosmic Professional Gladiator - Chapter 806
806 The Origin of Everything (Finale) (2/9)
Two third-realm beings, both in possession of Ultimate legacies, engaged in an intense battle within this fabric of spacetime. The reverberations of their clash echoed across infinite distances. Fortunately, this particular spacetime was devoid of any other living creatures, granting them the freedom to unleash their full might.
One hour, two hours… One day, two days, ten days…
The combatants were completely absorbed in their duel, their minds racing with countless thoughts as they strategized and sought weaknesses in their opponent.
Xu Jingming fought with unyielding determination. Then, something remarkable happened—the power behind his psychic spearmanship surged dramatically, conjuring forth a tricolored swimming dragon. Simultaneously, a black, transparent, and colorful Swimming Dragon Spear materialized, piercing through the body of Red Jade Traveler.
And then, it pierced through the other clone of Red Jade Traveler.
“No…” Red Jade Traveler’s twin forms stood frozen, disbelief etched across their faces as their minds and consciousness teetered on the brink of annihilation.
As a being of the third realm, Red Jade Traveler possessed numerous clones. Moreover, his dominance within his domain made him even more formidable. The demise of a mere two clones… it wasn’t enough to vanquish him completely.
However, this battle had been lost.
This spearmanship can be considered the 132nd volume of the 100 Heart Tribulation Spear Scrolls. The three Xu Jingmings gripped their spears with elation. Devoting almost all his time to studying the Ultimate legacy he had obtained, Xu Jingming had honed his spearmanship through this very battle, witnessing its improvement firsthand.
The two remaining Red Jade Traveler clones gazed upon Xu Jingming and whispered, “I am defeated.”
Their corporeal forms began to dissipate.
Xu Jingming merged his three clones into one and observed the scene with a calm demeanor. Yet, in that moment, he felt a flicker of astonishment.
…
Within the vast expanse of an endless and towering palace, an unseen presence exerted its silent influence across every timeline, spacetime, and living being.
Inside one of the palace halls, a colossal figure occupied a throne, positioned atop a dais. With black hair and lurid skin, he possessed the appearance of a pure human.
Resting his chin in his right hand, he closed his eyes, seemingly lost in slumber.
His breaths were gentle, yet the ripples they generated reverberated throughout all timelines and the Heart Realm, transcending the boundaries of spacetime. The source of the chaotic aura that permeated the Heart Realm emanated from the rhythmic essence of this formless aura.
Standing beneath the throne were two figures—a gray-robed individual and a red-robed one. Both remained utterly still, resembling statues. For an entire Abyssal Era, they had stood there, willingly serving the mighty presence.
Countless powerhouses from the third realm had chosen to follow and serve the Ultimate existences.
Their unwavering focus was directed towards the towering figure on the throne.
Compared to this immense entity, the two third-realm beings were inconsequential. They were like ants in comparison, while the towering presence was akin to a radiant sun or a celestial body. The slightest surge of aura could rend them asunder like a tempest.
Urgh.
The brows of the towering figure upon the throne twitched, and he gradually opened his eyes.
Immediately, the two devoted servants bowed with deep respect and spoke in unison, “World Lord!”
The Ultimate existences were shrouded in enigma. They chose not to reveal themselves, and the outside world remained ignorant of their names, origins, and titles. Only their followers possessed knowledge of the great presence who forged the Heart Realm… and they addressed him as the World Lord.
Legend had it that this title was what he was known as to his species.
The towering figure bore an identical resemblance to Xu Jingming, yet his eyes held a profound depth, as if they carried an eternity of history. He smiled softly and uttered, “I have awakened from my slumber. It seems to coincide with the passing of an Abyssal Era.”
Indeed, to him, an Abyssal Era was akin to a mere nap. His previous experiences within one Abyssal Era felt like a distant dream.
Xu Jingming surveyed the spacetime, which contained Connoisseur, Feather Fire Lord, Lord Louye, Overlord Watercloud, Master of Antinight, Overlord Sea Rain, and many others. Within it resided his family—his wife, Li Miaomiao, his daughter, Xu Lixing, his parents, grandchildren, and so forth.
This spacetime exists as a separate realm specifically crafted by me for my family within my domain.
Back when I attained the status of an Ultimate existence, I permitted my family to absorb the life essences from parallel spacetimes. Their life force had undergone complete refinement, enhanced by my power, allowing their minds to become eternal and impervious to destruction, while elevating their bodies to the third realm. Xu Jingming shook his head gently. However, despite their outward appearance of reaching the third realm, they were but pseudo-third realm beings.
This is because their thoughts and minds are not yet capable of withstanding the relentless passage of time.
Although I can preserve their minds, preventing decay or distortion over the years, their mental fluctuations gradually weaken. Emotions slowly fade away, replaced by a state of indifference. Over time, their once vibrant emotions diminish, drawing them closer to becoming mere inanimate objects.
Xu Jingming let out a sigh.
Having overcome countless trials to attain the esteemed status of the Ultimate realm, Xu Jingming faced the reality that some things remained beyond his reach.
Though he possessed the power to alter his family’s thoughts, memories, and comprehension, would they still truly be his family? The only viable solution lay in allowing his family to evolve independently.
After extensive deliberation with Miaomiao and the others, they reached a unanimous decision to embark on a new life. Yet, there are certain aspects that remain unchangeable. Xu Jingming smiled. For instance, altering her husband and children was out of the question, prompting Xu Jingming to make an effortless choice.
I established a self-contained spacetime, sealing away a significant portion of my family’s memories. Their recollections reverted to the earliest days of Earth, a time when humanity had just begun delving into the virtual reality network. Responding to Miaomiao’s request, I also projected a thought to spend an entire Abyssal Era alongside my beloved family.
