Chapter 190: Chapter 189: Arriving at Pangu Continent

Translator: 549690339

The spaceship reappeared, now inside a base within the Pangu Continent.

As they disembarked, the anticipated enemy did not appear. The base interior was empty, occupied only by their ship.

Prince Kong Xu waited for everyone to disembark before quickly stowing away the ship. Clearly, it was his private property.

“This base is jointly established by the four major companies. No one is allowed to cause trouble here…”

Prince Kong Xu joked, “I guess the area outside the base might be crowded with people!”

“Let’s wait a bit!”

As his words fell, a group of people entered from the outside.

More accurately, a group of soldiers, all decked out in distinctive battle armor. Their faces held no expression, but their eyes emitted a chilling seriousness.

Furthermore, from their uniform marching and a unique sense of discipline, it was clear that this was a tightly trained army.

Even more astonishing was that the aura of this hundred-man army seemed interconnected, as though they were one entity.

“Step, step!”

The hundred soldiers ceased their steps neatly in front of everyone. Under their gaze, they loudly declared:

“The Kong Family Army Hundred Man Squad reporting duty!”

At the same time, a centurion stepped forward and gave Prince Kong Xu a military salute.

Prince Kong Xu nodded and said, “Kong Shi, your Hundred Man Squad will be responsible for protecting Du Gang for the next year…”

He pointed at Du Gang, who was watching with amusement. Seeing no reaction, Prince Kong Xu smiled and said, “The Kong Family Army is an elite force trained by my Kong Family…”

“The Hundred Man Squad consists entirely of Sector Lords. After long-term joint training, they are adept at battle formations. When they come together, defeating several hundred scattered Sector Lords is not a problem…”

At this point, Du Gang sensed the cultivation level of the soldiers in the hundred-man squad and was shocked.

Because each of the hundred individuals had their channels beaming with overflowing energy, indicating they had reached the Ninth Rank of the Sector Lord level, just a step away from the Eternal level.

Seeing Du Gang’s shock, Prince Kong Xu chuckled, “Reaching the Ninth Rank of Sector Lord level might be difficult for other forces, but for the Kong Family, nurturing such individuals is not that challenging…”

Even if they aren’t nurtured with the highest standard, they would be able to reach the Ninth Rank of Sector Lord level over the years.

As they spoke, Kong Shi led the hundred-man squad to disperse swiftly, splitting into ten ten-man teams and creating a protective formation around Du Gang.

The soldiers exuded a strong smell of blood and violence, deterring any of the people who disembarked from the ship from speaking out of turn. They involuntarily cleared a path for them.

At this point, Prince Kong Xu addressed the over one thousand Sector Lord level powerhouses who had come to the Qiankun Continent with him, “You have all worked hard. Now that we are back on Pangu Continent, you will not be deprived of your rewards. This time, I will apply for you all to relax for a hundred years!”

Immediately all the employees of the Virtual Universe Company cheered

excitedly.

These people’s abilities were not actually strong, only at the First Rank of the Sector Lord level. They were basically used by Prince Kong Xu as a way to bolster their image on the Qiankun Continent.

Because, on the Qiankun Continent, almost everyone was of the First Rank of the Sector Lord level which didn’t set high expectations. His singular presence, although he held the cultivation level of the Ninth Rank of the Sector Lord level and possessed the strength to sweep through everyone, would inevitably be underestimated.

To avoid hassle, he rented people from the Virtual Universe Company. The reason he didn’t use his own people was partly because it was unnecessary, and partly because going to the Qiankun Continent would inevitably drain their lifespans.

He was not willing to let a portion of his family’s carefully trained Kong Family Army lose some of their lifespan. So, compared to the two, hiring company workers was the most cost-effective.

As for why he was not worried about losing lifespan himself, it was due to his confidence that he would break through to the Eternal level.

Prince Kong Xu looked at the other promoted individual, Qiao Jin and those participating in the core disciple assessment and seemed to be in a conundrum.

At this time, Yan Xiong stepped forward and laughed, “Senior Brother, I was just about to go back to the headquarters to report. How about I take these people with me?”

Hearing him taking the initiative to resolve the problem, Prince Kong Xu grinned and nodded, “All right, I’ll leave it to you.”

“Don’t worry senior brother, I will ensure their safe delivery!”

After Yan Xiong finished speaking, he didn’t forcibly approach the situation. Instead, he quickly gathered the remaining disciples together and led them away from the base.

Soon, the group swiftly left, not because they were eager to visit the headquarters, but because the sharp aura brought by the hundred-men unit of the Kong family made the thousands of them feel uncomfortable, prompting them to distance themselves.

However, as soon as they reached the base’s entrance, they were stuck.

Looking at the crowd stuck at the entrance, Kong Xu laughed, “I’m guessing the base’s exterior has been blocked. Let’s go first, they won’t dare to leave if we don’t…”

Du Gang nodded and together with Kong Xu, under the guard of the hundred-men unit, headed towards the base’s entrance.

Upon approaching, they noticed a yellow line several kilometers away from the entrance. The area within the yellow line was empty, but the area outside was filled with people stretching from east to west, so far that one couldn’t see the end.

Du Gang also observed that those standing were all dressed in dazzling attire, clearly expensive equipment.

Apart from that, their expressions were all different, but what they all had in common was the confidence they exuded!

Confidence in their own strength and talent!

It was clear that these individuals were all prodigies from various places.

Soon, Du Gang and Kong Xu walked out side by side.

The crowd, having done their homework, knew that the one receiving Du Gang this time was Kong Xu, a young prodigy of the Kong Family’s Virtual Universe Company.

Therefore, they easily recognized Du Gang standing next to Kong Xu.

“That’s the Ancient God!”

“The legendary Sacred Body…”

“I can’t believe I’m seeing a Sacred Body…”

“Yes, usually in our advanced cosmic domain, the appearance of a Sacred Body alone would already excite us all. This time, a God Body has appeared…”

“Not only that, I heard that there’s another Sacred Body coming from the Cosmic Center who wants to spar with the Ancient God…”

Not all people present were there to compete with Du Gang, others were just there to watch the excitement. Naturally, various news media were also among the crowd.

At this moment, the gazes towards Du Gang were filled with curiosity, scrutiny, battle intent, but also a slight hint of killing intent from a small number of people.

Du Gang quickly identified the group with murderous intent after a quick scan.

There weren’t many of them, just over a hundred. They were all young masters, wearing clothes either embroidered with a tiger or a dragon design. Coupled with their high-grade materials, they appeared very elegant and stylish, not cheap at all.

Laughing lightly next to Du Gang, Kong Xu pointed out, “Those with killing intent, they’re mostly members of the Jiang Family, or descendants of families close to the Jiang Family…”

Du Gang nodded, remembering the faces of that group regardless of their names.

The leader is called Jiang Wenxing, a leading figure among the young generation of the Jiang Family and also a Sacred Body. His strength is only below mine…” continued Kong Xu.

Du Gang immediately looked over and, seeing Jiang Wenxing’s face, he couldn’t help but praise him for his good looks.

He was wearing a robe adorned with faint-colored auspicious cloud patterns. His square face was paired with a long hairstyle, and his deep eyes paired with his tall and slender figure, along with his unique indifferent demeanor, made him stand out from the crowd.

As their gazes met, Jiang Wenxing smiled lightly and said calmly, “Ancient God, I am Jiang Wenxing from the Jiang family. Dare you fight me?”

This faint voice barely sounds, but it spread throughout the base. This immediately ignited the excitement of the onlookers.

“It’s starting, it’s starting!”

“I came here to watch the fight between Jiang family and the Ancient God…”

“The Ancient God has just appeared, and Jiang Wenxing has challenged him.

It’s heating up right from the start…”

Kong Xu whispered, “Du Gang, don’t accept it, his strength has reached the

Ninth Rank of the Sector Lord…”

Du Gang laughed and said in a loud voice, “Jiang Wenxing, the young prodigy of the Jiang family? At first glance, you look like a talented individual, but who would’ve thought that you’re just so-so… You’re of the Ninth Rank of the Sector Lord, and I’m just a measly Rank One. Challenging me with such a huge disparity in levels, you truly have no shame!”

When everyone heard, they realized that Du Gang was only at the first rank of the Sector Lord level.

Perhaps, they were intimidated by the title of the Ancient God and subconsciously ignored his cultivation level. It was not until Du Gang reminded them that they realized, the cultivation level of the Ancient God was just barely the first rank of Sector Lord.

On the other side, upon hearing that, Jiang Wenxing turned grim. Just as he was about to speak, Du Gang quickly interrupted:

“Of course, there is still a battle between you and me, but not now. Once my cultivation reaches the seventh rank of the Sector Lord, I will absolutely fight you!”

As soon as he said this, the whole place was in an uproar.

While everyone held the Sacred Body in high regard, they were also aware that each rank at the Sector Lord level represented considerable differences in power. Especially for someone like Jiang Wenxing, a member of a major family, they often had many secret techniques to fight beyond their ranks. Even if they were to face a seventh rank Sector Lord, they could still easily win, let alone a ninth rank.

People like Jiang Wenxing and Kong Xu usually represented the apex of the younger generation. They were usually the ones leapfrogging others, not the other way round.

“The Ancient God intends to leapfrog two ranks to fight Jiang Wenxing!” “This is a straight slap in the face!”

“Exactly, regardless of whether they win or lose this battle, Jiang Wenxing will lose face!”

“That’s right, if he wins, it’s to be expected since he’s ranked two levels below.

But if he loses, it will be utterly humiliating…” “The Ancient God’s move is indeed ruthless…”

“Ruthless? If he loses the match, do you think he’ll survive?”

Someone snorted coldly.

“Do you all think this is just about losing face?!”

“The conflict between the Jiang Family and the Ancient God is a matter of life and death! Regardless of who emerges victorious, the other party will be left with no way out!”

On the other side, Jiang Wenxing snorted and nodded, saying, “Fine. Since you accepted my challenge, I’ll remember that. When you reach the seventh rank of the Sector Lord, I will visit you. By then, I only hope no one will disturb our battle…”

Even though he was addressing Du Gang, his gaze was constantly on Kong Xu.

Clearly, he did not take the Ancient God, a lone cultivator, seriously.

In his view, if it weren’t for the Kong Family’s interference, the Ancient God, like an ant, would be easily crushed by the Jiang Family.

As a representative of the Kong Family, Kong Xu naturally had to make his position clear. He nodded and said, “We, the Kong Family, will not interfere in a fair challenge…”

Not only was his statement meant for the Jiang Family, but it was also directed towards all the other powerful cultivators present.

After all, the Kong Family was not so powerful as to control everything, they had to give an explanation when necessary!

Upon knowing that Du Gang was only at the first rank of Sector Lord level, many cultivators shook their heads and walked away.

“Ancient God, I am Fan Deng, a ninth-rank Sector Lord. When your power reaches the ninth rank, only then will I fight with you!”

The leading youth from another group stood up and shouted. Ignoring Du Gang’s response, he led his followers away.

With his departure, other individuals with considerable power also lost interest. They all stated they would fight the Ancient God once he reached the ninth rank, then left.

For them, the Ancient God, a famous name, was someone they wanted to fully challenge.

However, the current Ancient God’s cultivation was too low to perform as expected. Instead, they decided to wait for him to grow stronger before challenging him.

In a short time, most of the people present took their leave.

Not only them, Jiang Wenxing, along with all the people from the Jiang Family, also left.

They could wait for a year!

However, there were still people who remained at the venue.

These were the younger and more ambitious cultivators.

“Ancient God, I hope you can get through the qualifying contest quickly. I’ll be waiting for you in the eligibility round!”

A blue-clothed young man with a smile at the corner of his mouth said lightly.

The remaining youths are mostly even younger disciples who are not yet ten thousand years old, and can still participate in the Cosmic Peak Talents Competition.

The people who just left are all quite strong, most of them are Ninth Rank at the Sector Lord level, but their ages are quite large, with the youngest possibly being tens of thousands of years old, and some are even millions of years old.

After a glance, Du Gang noticed that this blue-clothed young man could speak without interruption from others, and instantly realised he was a young talent. He then said, “Whoever you are, with whatever skill level, I never slash at unknown people!”

He wasn’t trying to show off, but wanted to know about the strength of his rivals in the Peak Genius Race.

The blue-clothed young man smiled lightly, saying, “Remember, my name is Chen Yixuan, Fourth Rank at the Sector Lord level, and I am the first place winner in the Pangu Continent qualifying competition…

With a shrug, Du Gang didn’t pay it much heed.

Just the champion of the Pangu Continent qualifying contest, out of all Advanced nations combined, there are ten thousand champions…

At this point, Kong Xu reminded, “Du Gang, do not underestimate them! These young people have only reached the Fourth Rank at the Sector Lord level due to their age, but they are quite strong. This Chen Yixuan, despite being Fourth Rank at the Sector Lord level, has grasped a hint of the Original Law, and even has some secrets that allow him to punch above his weight. So don’t be careless and treat them as average Sector Lords!”

Du Gang had an epiphany. Now that he had arrived at the Pangu Continent, the techniques known by these talented youths were probably no worse than his own, even possibly giving them an advantage.

This means these talented people can, if fighting above their grade, perhaps defeat regular Six or Seventh-Rank practitioners at the Sector Lord level.

Now, he’s only Rank One at the Sector Lord level. If he too fights above his grade, he might be able to defeat average Sector Lords of the Third or Fourth Rank, but anything higher would prove too challenging.

Indeed, facing ten thousand talents of at least the Fourth Rank at the Sector Lord level would be quite a tough battle!

However, he pretended to be still quite nonchalant, “Enough chattering, the winner of this Cosmic Peak Talents Competition, I have pre-booked! ”

At this remark, all the youths who were introducing and showing off to each other were stupefied. “How can… he dare to say that?”

“Isn’t he afraid of getting killed?”

Everyone present, while all longing for the final first-place spot, didn’t dare to brag ahead of time, fearing targeted reprisals later on.

It could be said, Du Gang is the first one, among the elites, to openly say that he would win the Cosmic Peak Talents Competition.

Anyone saying such a thing, if not truly strong, was probably truly weak.

For example, it’s like a poor student who applies for a prestigious school even though he doesn’t make the grade. Even if he does apply, nobody cares.

But Du Gang is different, he has the strength, so his words are akin to declaring war on all the contestants that still remain in the competition.

Although it doesn’t matter much to declare war on these Third or Fourth Rank Sector Lord level contestants, as compared to those stronger talents who have left, Du Gang himself is only at the Rank One Sector Lord level!

“Good on you!”

Chen Yixuan clapped his hands and praised, “You are the first person who dared to say that, and I look forward to competing with you!”

After finishing, he swiftly left with his entourage.

The other prodigies also shook their heads one after another and left.

After a while, all the people had left, arriving quickly and leaving just as quickly. Those people just came to see what the Ancient God looked like and were not in hurry to challenge him today.

As for this outcome, Kong Xu was not surprised as the Kong family had already promised to protect Du Gang. Other ordinary forces didn’t dare to mess around and could only follow the Kong family’s instructions.

“Even though they left, they might send some One, two, or Third-Rank Sector

Lord Level practitioners to challenge you, so keep an eye out.”

“Now, let’s go to the virtual company’s headquarters first and arrange for your accommodation…”

ps: The power is out. I’ve been typing on my phone all morning. I’ll send it first. I don’t know if the power will be restored earlier in the afternoon.

PS2: I went to a nearby Internet cafe, but because the shop owner did not have the required payment service, I had to return and continue writing on my phone. My typing speed is very slow, and my train of thought is easily disturbed..
