I'm A Wasteland Giant

Chapter 206: 205: The Golden Age Begins!

Translator: 549690339

As time passed, more and more powerful individuals began to arrive at the vacant land owned by the Virtual Universe Company.

Everyone looked at Kong Xu with envy, as in this Golden Age, he was the first to advance to the Eternal Level.

“Boom!”

Kong Xu was still immersed in a state of Dao Enlightenment, and the surrounding void vibrated occasionally. His momentum, however, was growing stronger and stronger.

At this moment, amongst the surrounding crowd, some Ninth Rank Sector Lords were staring at Du Gang, eager to take action.

Clearly, they wanted to fight Du Gang in hopes of finding a breakthrough to the Eternal Level.

“Fools, don’t be rash!”

Soon, an Eternal-Level powerhouse noticed the ambitions of these Sector Lord prodigies and stopped them.

“Don’t you see that the strongmen of the Virtual Universe Company are guarding the perimeter? If any of you act recklessly, you will undoubtedly die in the next second.”

“He’s at a crucial point in his advancement to the Eternal Level. If anyone interrupts him, it will mean open hostility with the Kong family…”

These words instantly cooled down the on-site Sector Lords.

Indeed, if anything were to go wrong with Kong Xu at such a critical moment, it could seriously offend the Kong family.

Meanwhile, Du Gang was gazing at Jiang Wenxing, seeming deep in thought.

He was considering whether or not to challenge Jiang Wenxing.

After some hesitation, he eventually gave up.

Given his present situation, he could only defend himself without dying under Jiang Wenxing’s attack, but he was unable to inflict a deadly injury on Jiang Wenxing.

For him, a mere challenge was too boring. If he chose to fight, he would definitely aim to take his enemy’s life!

“Forget it; I’ll wait until I have the strength to kill him and then challenge him!” With such thoughts, Du Gang completely concealed his cultivation.

At the Sector Lord Level, one can usually only detect a cultivator’s level if they chose to reveal their aura, or if they displayed equivalent-level skills.

Otherwise, it would be tough for outsiders to discern their actual level.

Therefore, at this moment, no one noticed that Du Gang had reached the Sixth Rank of the Sector Lord Level, and they all still considered him a Second rank cultivator.

In the crowd, Yu Shuiyao was gazing at Du Gang with a pondering gleam in her beautiful eyes.

Yu Miaoling, who was protecting her, lightly laughed and asked, “What’s up, are you interested in him?”

Upon hearing this, Yu Shuiyao returned a graceful smile and said, “If he can help me reach the Eternal level, then why not entertain the idea of being with him?!”

“Sigh!”

Yu Miaoling sighed deeply in her heart but did not respond.

She understood Yu Shuiyao’s thoughts very well.

This was because Yu Shuiyao’s grandfather had passed away.

Having to watch her close family leave so abruptly had left a significant impact on her young mind.

Therefore, Yu Shuiyao’s pursuit of strength, and especially eternity, was resolute.

“Kong Xu has already advanced to the Eternal level, so what are we waiting

“We’re waiting for the end of the Cosmic Peak Talent Competition!”

“Why?”

“By then, Du Gang won’t have the Kong Family’s protection, and that will be our chance…”

“Are you really planning to kill him?”

“Otherwise, don’t you think that whoever kills him will have a higher chance of advancing?

At this moment, in the observing crowd, many stood in small groups, chattering away.

“Is it something recorded in the Bone Book that was excavated recently?”

“Yes, it said that those who kill the opener of the Golden Age have a high probability of advancing to the Eternal Level…’

Listening to the whispers around him, Du Gang gritted his teeth. Without a doubt, he knew that the Jiang family was behind this deception.

Fraud, a highly prosperous trade even on Earth, would surely flourish here as well, right?

“Boom!”

Kong Xu’s body vibrated again, but a trace of confusion appeared on his face.

“What’s wrong with him?”

Everyone on the scene noticed his abnormality.

At this moment, Kong Luo was protecting Du Gang and shook his head, saying, “He seems to be encountering a ‘tribulation.’ Anybody who aspires to become eternal undergoes a tribulation. This tribulation varies for everyone: some people just sleep a bit and then it passes, some cry a bit and then it’s over. However, for most people, this ‘tribulation’ involves a fight…”

Though his words were coarse, the concept was accurate. ‘Tribulation’ is associated with the deepest desires in the heart of the person who seeks to ascend. People often lock away these desires, not even knowing what they truly want. To overcome the tribulation, this barrier must be broken.

“I wonder what Kong Xu is dealing with at this moment…”

After pondering for the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Kong Xu’s brow gradually relaxed as if he had figured out something.

However, the hints of the Great Dao around his body had come to a halt.

“Why isn’t he advancing?!”

At this moment, most of the talented elites at the level of Sector Lord in the crowd didn’t understand what a ‘tribulation’ was and felt extremely confused.

On the other side, Kong Xu’s eyes were getting brighter as he scanned the surrounding onlookers.

All of a sudden, he spotted Jiang Wenxing. His eyes sparkled before he shot towards him the next moment.

At the same time, he shouted, “Jiang Wenxing, we haven’t decided the outcome of a battle at the level of Sector Lord yet…”

“Would you dare to battle with me?”

Although Jiang Wenxing was only at the level of Sector Lord, he had heard about the concept of ‘tribulation.’ He vaguely guessed that Kong Xu’s ‘tribulation’ might be similar to being invincible at the same level.

However, he didn’t turn down the challenge. His eyes shot out a divine light, full of murderous intent, and he rose to face it.

“You want me to be your stepping stone? Today, I’ll cut you down!”

He let out a resounding roar, soaring into the sky with overwhelming killing intent, and swiftly began to battle with Kong Xu.

“They…”

The Eternal Level individuals from the Virtual Universe Company present weren’t idiots either; they understood that Kong Xu must have encountered a ‘tribulation.’ They didn’t interfere in the fight, but they still vigilantly watched the other eternals, in fear of any disturbances.

“Boom!”

At this moment, Kong Xu didn’t release any weapons and started to fight bare-handed with Jiang Wenxing.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

What was astonishing was that, at this moment, the two of them were evenly matched.

“How is this possible?!”

Yu Shuiyao looked on with a shocked expression, “Jiang Wenxing is known for his incredibly strong physical strength, while Kong Xu is famous for his flying sword. How can they…”

After observing for a while, she realized that even though Kong Xu was not good at close combat, he didn’t have the disadvantage. She finally understood.

Astonished, she said: “This Kong Xu fellow has been hiding his strength all along. His physical strength has always been strong; he just pretended not to

be good at close combat…”

Hearing this, all the talents from Penglai Island were taken aback.

Looking at the scene of the two of them fighting bare-handedly, everyone was at a loss for words.

“This Kong Xu is utterly sinister. If he didn’t encounter his tribulation during his attempt to become eternal this time, he might have continued to hide the fact that his physical body is incredibly strong…”

“Yeah, this guy definitely intends to trap others. It’s a good thing his scheme was exposed this time, otherwise we might have been in trouble if we ran into him in the future!”

“Ha ha ha!”

At this moment, Kong Xu burst out laughing, “Jiang Wenxing, you’re nothing more than this. Time for me to get serious!”

As his voice fell, he suddenly extended a hand that enlarged to the size of 100 meters and reached for Jiang Wenxing.

Seeing this, Jiang Wenxing’s face became solemn. He extended his hand, transforming it into a giant palm of the same size, and slapped it against Kong Xu’s palm.

The hundred-meter palms released by both of them, each possessing unrivalled power, terrified all the prodigies present.

“Boom!”

This could possibly be the clash of the strongest geniuses at the Sector Lord level. The power generated from it dazzled even the Eternal level powerhouses.

“Jiang Wenxing, do you think I’m just this? Today, I’ll show you the real Sacred Body!”

Kong Xu’s eyes were filled with increasing battle desire. An excited look appeared on his face, and behind him, an aura resembling a wind-stirring sea manifested.

“This is a vision, this terrifying technique is only available for a special physique… ”

All the people at the scene were shocked. “Can Jiang Wenxing withstand it?”

“Boom!”

Just as Kong Xu was about to press down with his vision, a giant golden crow, which was like a deity, with terrifying Divine Power manifested behind Jiang Wenxing.

“Caw!”

The golden crow emitted a loud caw as soon as it appeared. The sound was so loud and frightening that everyone who heard it felt a sense of awe.

“Good heavens, his vision is the Golden Crow, a legendary divine bird, a powerful creature from the mythical era…”

“His Golden Crow only has one leg. A three-legged Golden Crow is the most formidable. He hasn’t fully developed his vision…”

A strong character with excellent perception quickly determined this based on Jiang Wenxing’s visions.

Indeed, when his Golden Crow collided with the gigantic sea manifested by Kong Xu, it emitted a hissing sound.

“Poor Jiang Wenxing indeed, he is with the Fire Element, and his vision is a Golden Crow… whereas Kong Xu is with the Wind Element. But his vision includes a vast sea, which can easily restrain the Golden Crow…”

“Hum!”

At this moment, the one-legged Golden Crow was being suppressed to the point it almost extinguished the flames on its body.

“Ha ha ha, where is Little Hawk King, come on!”

At this moment, Kong Xu was not in a hurry to extinguish the Golden Crow.

Instead, he bellowed again, eager to continue fighting two opponents at once.

The crowd was appalled when they heard this.

“Kong Xu is too strong. He’s kept his true power hidden and waiting. Right

now, it’s not only that he is suppressing Jiang Wenxing, but he also wants to fight two…”

Du Gang was shocked. He had somewhat underestimated Kong Xu previously. But now he saw this young man was indeed an outstanding figure among his peers, suppressing all his counterparts.

“Asking for death!”

In the periphery, Little Hawk King was incensed, his wings unfurled all of a sudden. With a swift sweep, he materialized in the center of the battlefield.

“Whoosh!”

He was impressively swift, unexpectedly throwing out a terrifying claw attack. At the areas passed by his sharp claw, space was buzzing, as if it could shatter at any moment.

Little Hawk King is the strongest talent among the young generation of the Ying family. He possesses a physique equal to that of the Great Power Old Hawk King of the Ying family: the Sky Hawk Holy Body.

At this moment, the moment he took action, he demonstrated a very terrifying offensive momentum.

“Bring it on!”

Kong Xu laughed loudly. His vision continued to suppress Jiang Wenxing, but he himself took the initiative and threw a punch, colliding directly with the sharp claw. “Boom!”

“Bang!”

Surprisingly, the two exchanged hundreds of blows in an instant, and it was hard to tell who was stronger.

It was clear that Little Hawk King’s body was stronger than Jiang Wenxing, who was known for his strong physical power.

But Kong Xu was able to stand against him, showing his extraordinary strength.

“Thrilling! ”

Kong Xu bellowed again, his body once again burst into astonishing radiance. His whole body was like a deity, his hand heavy as a mountain, striking with the force of a thousand weights, directly sending Little Hawk King flying with a single blow.

“Little Hawk King, are you up to it?”

Hearing this provocation, Little Hawk King didn’t get angry. Instead, he calmed down.

“Kong Xu, I didn’t expect that we have underestimated you. We thought you were just a straggler who hung around at the end, but you have held your cards close to your chest…”

His eyes were constantly flickering, full of wonder. The corners of his mouth curved upwards slightly as he laughed: “However, this is where it ends.”

“Transform!”

As he roared, he instantly became enormous, transforming into a towering eagle ten meters tall.

“Kill!

This time, his claw attack was even more terrifying, flickering with blue light. Accompanying a strong gust of wind, it clawed towards Kong Xu.

“Bang!”

At this moment, Kong Xu didn’t back down. Instead, he moved forward to meet the attack, facing it with his bare fists.

One punch and one claw, they clashed frantically, producing sounds similar to metallic collision.

This made it clear that both their physical strengths were incredibly powerful.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

After just a few rounds, they had exchanged thousands of moves. Surprisingly, even in such a situation, Little Hawk King couldn’t overpower Kong Xu.

Instead, he was on the defensive.

“His strength is increasing!”

At this moment, someone finally noticed something and exclaimed.

“Indeed, Kong Xu’s strength is constantly increasing. He has truly turned these people into his whetstones…”

“Too strong, he’s treating these uniquely talented geniuses as his whetstones!” This spectacle deeply shocked everyone present.

Some prodigies who came from other advanced cosmic nations were all outshone at this moment.

Most of them felt inferior compared to the two who were currently battling in the field.

However, there were still some more formidable prodigies who were fearless, their fighting spirit flaring up instead.

“Not enough!”

At this moment, Kong Xu, the scion posed in the field, managed to suppress Little Hawk King again, roaring loudly, “Yu Shuiyao, where are you? Get out here!”

In the distance, Yu Shuiyao smiled charmingly and didn’t resist, dancing gracefully and creating a sound as pleasing as nature’s melody, gave a sarcastic remark, “Kong Xu, you are bold, sure you don’t fear breaking your teeth…”

“Hahaha! ”

Kong Xu laughed heartily, “Come on, today, I, Kong Xu, will prove myself through strength, I’ll fight all the heroes in the world!”

“Whoosh!”

The mini Sword Box appeared out of thin air, and nine flying swords instantly combined into one. It formed into a divine-level giant sword, which carried a terrifying might as it slashed towards Yu Shuiyao.

“Tang!”

In this instant, Yu Shuiyao also released a flying sword. She controlled it distantly, battling against the giant sword in the air.

From this, it could be concluded that she was also a Mind Master, possessing a formidable Mental Power.

“That’s too terrifying!”

“Prince Kong Xu is fighting against three alone, his body, mind, and anomaly are all engaged in combat!”

The anomaly was fighting against Jiang Wenxing, the flying sword was battling against Yu Shuiyao, and he himself was fighting against Little Hawk King with his body.

“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, surprisingly, the three people in the field were gradually falling into a disadvantageous position, looking like they were about to lose.

“Not enough, not enough, are there no more outstanding talents!”

At this moment, Kong Xu radiated an overwhelming aura, and a terrifying dazzling brilliance shone from his eyes as he stared at the surrounding talents.

Each of the prodigies swept by his gaze lowered their heads.

“I will battle you!”

However, there were still prodigies whose fighting spirit hadn’t diminished. Unfazed by his gaze, they rapidly joined the battlefield.

In a row, nine shadows flew towards Kong Xu.

These were the best nine prodigies from other advanced cosmic nations.

“Huan Seng, the most potent genius of the Black Graph Advanced Universal

Nation, at the ninth level of the Sector Lord, I didn’t expect him to join in…”

“Pu Hong, he is also a very powerful genius. It is said that he once battled against seven, defeating seven powerful beings ranked at the ninth level of the Sector Lord…

This moment, the Sector Lord-level geniuses who were present could identify almost all nine people.

This was not because they had been paying attention to them all along, but because these nine were quite famous, to the extent of being famous internationally.

“Sadly, the most powerful prodigy of our Cosmic Nation didn’t come, he said he was waiting for the Golden Age to truly begin…’

“Yes, it’s the same for our Cosmic Nation, otherwise, he would definitely participate in this battle!”

At this moment, countless talents were full of regrets. In their eyes, this battle was absolutely a grand event.

But unfortunately, their powers fell short and they were unable to join the contest.

At this moment, they only hoped that the prodigies of their nation could arrive soon, so that others could also witness the power of their nation.

Hearing these words Du Gang curiously asked, “Is there still some more powerful prodigies not arrived here yet?”

Kong Luo smiled and said, “Of course. Your current life only represents the budding of the Golden Age, the Golden Age is about to start…”

“Kong Xu’s promotion this time has officially announced the commencement of the Golden Age..

“The prodigies who are here now, probably just account for one-tenth, and I believe, once the news is out today, the other eminent prodigies will also rush here!”

He patted Du Gang’s shoulder and encouraged, “Keep going, defeat all those guys sooner…”

At this moment, Kong Xu in the field was being suppressed under a joint attack by twelve people.

But surprisingly, no matter how the crowd attacked, Kong Xu was extremely resilient and his strength was increasing nonstop.

“Kong Xu is indeed a lucky bastard…”

Kong Luo sighed, “Promoting power through combat, his strength will be even more potent, and it will save a lot of effort..

“Boom boom boom!”

The field was in utter chaos, Kong Xu was displaying some even more peculiar skills, his body seemed like an illusion, constantly flickering.

Every time he reappeared, he would unleash a terrifying attack. Although they were all blocked by the crowd, the sky trembled incessantly at this moment, rumbling continuously.

“The law of space, Kong Family’s strongest technique, I didn’t expect Young

Master Kong Xu to secretly practice some of it at the Sector Lord Level…”

This was the first time that Yu Shuiyao was truly shocked. She did not expect Young Master Kong Xu to possess spatial combat skills, with quite advanced progress in training, giving off an enchanting feeling.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

Young Master Kong Xu’s figure became increasingly unpredictable, and the attacks he released were also getting stronger.

The state where the twelve top-level geniuses were suppressing him was reversed at this moment.

The Little Hawk King was about to explode. He had never been so frustrated before. If the young Master Kong Xu was really at his level, it would be acceptable, but he was not. He was on the verge of advancing to the eternal level, his strength was constantly increasing. This meant that their fight was somehow unfair.

“Bang!”

At this moment, twelve figures were all repulsed. Among them, a few relatively weaker geniuses were almost killed. They reacted quickly, which saved their lives.

“Is there anyone else?!”

The nine swords surrounded him, a dazzling green light flickered, his eyes were captivating. It was a “I am the strongest in the world” posture, providing a very shocking visual experience for everyone.

“Who can fight against me?!”

At this moment, he got rid of his refined manner and became rebellious and domineering.

After scanning around, no one dared to meet his gaze.

Suddenly, when he saw Du Gang’s figure, his eyes lit up and he shouted louder, “Du Gang, come on and fight with me!”

“What?”

The crowd was stunned.

“Isn’t Du Gang only at the second rank of the Sector Lord Level? Is Kong Xu confused?”

“Yes, what’s the use of being at the second rank of the Sector Lord Level in this situation, where even the top-level geniuses can’t step forward?”

However, to everyone’s surprise, Du Gang not only did not backtrack but instead casually smiled and said, “You’re nearly there, let me give you a hand!” After saying that, he flew straight towards the center of the battlefield.

“How Dare he?!”

Everyone present was shocked to their core.

But Du Gang didn’t care, he rushed into the air, turned into a golden light, and quickly attacked Kong Xu.

“Bang!”

A flash of golden light blocked the huge palm that Kong Xu had slapped. Then, Du Gang quickly joined the battle and started attacking with the other twelve.

Suddenly, the situation was that thirteen people were attacking Young Master Kong Xu alone. The dazzling lights shone brightly, presenting a domineering spectacle.

“He really did join in!”

“This is the most top-level battle at the Sector Lord level, he…”

The spectators were already somewhat shocked, they didn’t expect Du Gang’s strength to reach this level.

“The news about the Ancient God was only released a few months ago, he was said to be at Domain Lord Level then, not even getting to the Sector Lord level, but now he can even participate in the top-level battle of the Sector Lord Level…’

“Too terrifying, is this the legendary divine body?”

“Are all the heralds of the Golden Age so powerful?”

While the crowd was shocked, some geniuses, who were slightly inferior to Jiang Wenxing, Yu Shuiyao, and Little Hawk King, were now somewhat puzzled.

“Could it be that the battle on the field is not as terrifying as we imagined?” With the addition of Du Gang, doubting their own abilities, they began to hesitate.

“Maybe, I could participate in such a level of battle!”

There were quite a few geniuses thinking like that, and many of them were just one step away from being top-level geniuses.

“Since it’s such a grand occasion, I, Huitailang, am coming too!”

A young man with a strange appearance laughed and flew towards the field.

Not only him, but also, at this moment, in the watching crowd, one figure after another flew into the sky, wanting to enter the battlefield. “Don’t be impulsive, this is not a battle you can join in!”

At this moment, an eternal-level power reminded kindly.

They watched carefully, knowing that the battle was top-level, not something an ordinary Sector Lord could participate in.

However, these people ignored all these warnings and continued to rush towards the battlefield without looking back.

But if someone were to observe carefully, they would find that most of these prodigies lacked protection from eternal-level beings.

That was because, the prodigies who had protection from eternal-level entities, were stopped the moment they attempted to get up.

“The battle on the field is no longer merely a top-level sector lord fight, the minimum power level they’re dealing with on the field needs to be escalated by at least three ranks…

This was not an attempt to scare these prodigies. The reality was indeed so.

Although Kong Xu was growing stronger constantly, other top prodigies weren’t far behind. As the battle progressed, their strength was increasing as well, although not as terrifyingly as Kong Xu, it was still remarkably fast.

This showed that despite their duel with Kong Xu, it had its advantages. Kong Xu used them to hone his skills, but they too were continuously improving. “What a pity, you didn’t join the battlefield at the very beginning…”

An eternal-level entity that had seen through all this, shook their head in regret.

If they had joined from the beginning, despite being weaker than Kong Xu, they might have been able to hold on for a bit, maybe even enhancing their strength a little. But now, it was far too late.

Indeed, as dozens of figures just began to take flight, before they had even joined the battlefield, they were scattered all over due to the shockwaves from the center of the battlefield.

“Puff!”

One of the prodigies, reeling from a flying light beam struck him when he was 500 meters away from the core battlefield, suffered grave injuries and was spewing blood uncontrollably.

“Damn it, is the gap really this wide?”

This prodigy wanted to endure for a little longer but another beam came flying towards him, this time with greater force.

“Boom!”

This beam of light directly exploded this hesitating prodigy into pieces, killing him instantly.

“Fall back quickly, this battlefield is not something you should get involved in!”

At this moment, another eternal-level entity could not bear to see this and shouted out.

However, they were only shouting from the periphery and showed no signs of getting involved themselves.

This was because the surrounding battlefield was filled with eternal-level entities from the Virtual Universe Company.

Sector lords may approach Kong Xu under the pretense of honing their skills, but eternal-level entities could not approach under the name of saving others, or they would be attacked.

“Alas, good advice falls on deaf ears, and a great act of mercy is wasted on those who have given up hope!”

Someone sighed with regret, yet all they could do was give up and allow them to meet their demise.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

In just a blink of an eye, over half of the dozens of prodigies present were killed or injured.

Only then did the remaining people realize that they had no business being part of this battle.

“Run!”

At this moment, everyone began to scatter and retreat frantically.

However, among these retreating figures, there was one shadow that surprisingly continued to advance.

“It looks like the first one to charge out, what was his name? Huitailang?”

Someone’s eyes sparkled, not even blinking, “Could he be one of the top prodigies participating in the battle?”

“Not necessarily, I’ve been watching him, this guy’s lucky, he hasn’t encountered any of those light beams…”

As everyone continued guessing, finally, Huitailang was hit by a light beam when he was 100 meters away from the center of the battlefield.

“Damn it!”

Huitailang was hit by a ball of fire and uncontrollably flew away.

In reality, if he really wanted to stabilize himself, he might have been able to do so, but he had already seen the situation of others behind him.

He just didn’t want to retreat voluntarily for the sake of his pride. He had specifically chosen this wave of Jiang Wenxing’s residual energy because it wasn’t too powerful, hence why he moved to intercept it.

That was a perfect opportunity to escape!

He was inwardly relieved, but his face displayed a look of sadness and anger.

“I will surely come back!”

Accompanied by this voice, Huitailang turned into a comet and vanished in this zone instantly, turning into a tiny star, disappearing without a trace.

Hearing this voice, everyone present couldn’t help but feel a wave of lament.

“Huitailang is pretty impressive. While his strength may be lacking, his fighting spirit is extremely noteworthy…”

However, this was only a brief interlude.

The fourteen people fiercely battling in the arena could hardly spare a thought for those who couldn’t even withstand the residual effects of their battle.

And it really was the case. The tide of the battle had turned with Du Gang’s entry, but the tides soon changed again as Kong Xu kept fighting and growing stronger.

“Hahaha, exhilarating!”

At this moment, Kong Xu stole the spotlight!

He knew very well that if it were any other time or place, he could barely manage a win against any one of the competitors here.

But it couldn’t be helped, his impending advancement was filled with infinite possibilities.

“Damn it!”

Jiang Wenxing was currently the most frustrated. He had always looked down on Du Gang, who now not only managed to join the battle but also displayed remarkable combat power.

In fact, during his confrontation with Kong Xu, the Golden Crow spirit looming behind him sneaked out a beam of firelight to hit Du Gang.

But to his surprise, the attack didn’t even burn Du Gang’s skin. In fact, it had no effect on Du Gang and was just deflected.

At this moment, besides Kong Xu, the one in the best spirits should be Du Gang.

At first, he had just thought of assisting Kong Xu in ranking up when he joined the fight.

But as the fight progressed, his strength underwent earth-shaking changes.

It could be said that his previous battles were always very rudimentary, typically relying solely on his mastery of the Laws.

Now, however, things were different, as everything from his body, Laws, energy, weapons, mind, and more had all been unified and utilized in a comprehensive manner.

At this moment, his attack power, which had been his weakest point compared to a Ninth-Rank Sector Lord, was also increasing steadily.

This was not because the laws governing his Gold Element were growing, but because his application of techniques had become more refined. In addition, he was constantly learning from the attack methods of others.

Although he couldn’t fully comprehend them, he was able to pick up some techniques from observing their attacks.

“Boom!”

The scene on the battlefield changed once again with the ongoing fight.

Jiang Wenxing of the Fire Yuan Holy Body, Little Hawk King of the Sky Hawk Holy Body, and Yu Shuiyao of the Taiyin Holy Body all unleashed their visions and jointly resisted Kong Xu’s tempestuous wave attack.

Jiang WenXing’s vision was a Golden Crow, but it seemed on the verge of being extinguished under the wild waves.

Little Hawk King’s vision was a huge Five-Colored Bird. Its every feather was as sharp as a divine weapon, yet it looked as vein now as a shabby rooster due to the surging waves.

Yu Shuiyao, on the other hand, had a much simpler vision. Behind her, a round moon hung high. Thanks to the Taiyin force protecting her, she was impervious to the raging winds and waves, but that was all. Her Taiyin Holy Body was clearly underutilized and still in its infancy. It only gave her enough strength to defend herself, without the power to strike back.

For now, Kong Xu only used his vision against these three, and not against the others.

The remaining nine were all weaker than Kong Xu. Their hands full dealing with nine swords he controlled with his mental power.

Though it was said they were being distracted, under his mental control, these nine flying swords left them almost only with the power to parry, not to counterattack.

In the center of the battlefield, Kong Xu and Du Gang had paused their sharp confrontation.

Instead of fighting, they started exchanging words.

“Originally, I had disguised myself well so that everyone thought I was as weak as one with a deficient kidney…”

“Who knew, it was exposed ahead of time today. What a pity, I didn’t get to surprise anyone…”

Kong Xu laughed heartily, saying:

“Du Gang, of all the people here, only your body is the strongest. Since I have been exposed today, I must compete with you earnestly and see who is tougher!”

Du Gang laughed. His fighting spirit ignited, he replied, “Don’t believe it? Let’s find out!”

Soon, the two of them rushed towards each other like furious bulls, colliding vigorously.

“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”

At this moment, they forsaked all other attacks that were deemed useless. They didn’t use any laws, visions, or mental power, just their bodily strength to engage in an intense battle.

At this moment, every part of their bodies was treated as a deadly weapon. Hands, feet, elbows, heads, backs, knees…everything was a weapon. Each attack caused the heavens and the earth to tremble.

All people watching the battle, regardless of whether they were geniuses or Eternal-level powerhouses, were taken aback.

“Du Gang actually possesses such a formidable strength. He has lasted so long in a head-on collision with Kong Xu…”

“Remember that not long ago, Kong Xu had suppressed Little Hawk King with his physical strength alone…”

“Keep in mind, Little Hawk King is considered top-rated in the Primordial

Continent…”

‘”‘ Silence!”

Suddenly, an Eternal Level powerhouse changed his face and shouted, stopping the ignorant people’s discussion.

The people present instantly came to their senses and all shut their mouths.

It involved the secrets of the Hawk King’s Family, and casual talk could indeed lead to problems; no one in the audience dared to say it anymore.

“Boom!”

At that moment, one of the prodigies fighting with Kong Xu’s nine flying swords could no longer keep up and was blasted out.

When he wanted to rejoin the battlefield, he realized he was already an outsider and could not join in anymore.

“Ah, I’ve meant to get it!”

This prodigy looked regretful. This time, he had benefited greatly, with his strength at least doubling compared to before after merely fighting a small round with Kong Xu.

However, a smile spread across his face.

“This is just fighting with Kong Xu, if in the future, I’ll meet these guys who advanced to the Eternal Level and fight with them continuously, maybe I can also advance successfully…”

Hearing this, Kong Luo blandly said to this person: “Back in the day, I wasn’t the strongest among the Kong Family. I could only rank fifth or sixth among my peers. However, in the process of continuously stoning others, I motivated myself, improving myself, and finally advanced to the Eternal Level at the end of the Golden Age…”

At these words, all prodigies present were greatly shaken.

“What, Lord Kong Luo actually also…”

They all looked at Kong Luo with an unbelieving expression.

Kong Luo nodded: “You are not without chances, if you can always keep up with this group of absolute strongest guys, advancing to the Eternal Level is not impossible!”

“Thank you for your guidance, Lord Kong Luo!”

At this moment, many prodigies stuck in confusion seemed to be awakened. They all had a moment of clarity and bowed to Kong Luo.

In fact, many of them were not vastly different in strength from those nine people. It was just that they lost some courage at the beginning, resulting in a gap. Now, awakened, they have finally understood.

“Remember, the disasters these top prodigies have to endure while advancing to the Eternal Level can also become opportunities for you!”

At this moment, all prodigies remembered this deep in their hearts.

They also started looking forward to the next one who would advance to the Eternal Level so they could use them as a sharpening stone to continuously polish themselves while also refining rough jades.

“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”

While everyone was talking, three more figures were again blasted out of the field.

Kong Xu’s power became more and more terrifying. With only nine swords, he could defeat these top prodigies.

And, he didn’t increase the number of swords for attack due to the decrease in opponents. He left four flying swords aside, and the remaining five swords each faced an opponent.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

In the field, the fights between Du Gang and Kong Xu became increasingly intense, and the power emanating from their duels became even stronger.

This piece of heaven and earth kept trembling, and the aftershocks shook the ground continuously. Even, some people with weaker powers were injured by the aftershocks transmitted from the ground.

“Back off!”

Without powerful beings remining them, some weaker prodigies began to retreat consciously.

Everyone looked at the two men in battle, absolutely astonished.

“Did you all notice? Du Gang’s strength seems to have become even stronger!”

This time, even though it was Kong Xu’s disaster, the improvement in Du Gangs strength was not any slower, almost maintaining a balance.

The combat power of the two at this moment has already surpassed the standard of the Ninth Rank of the Sector Lord Level, but they are still continuously climbing up.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

As the two’s strength continued to grow and the battle became more intense, under such influence, Kong Xu’s mental power also became stronger. This caused the five prodigies fighting against his five swords to directly lose.

Therefore, the situation of the thirteen people besieging Kong Xu had changed, and the nine prodigies fighting against the flying swords had all been eliminated.

“Whew!”

At this moment, the nine eliminated prodigies didn’t show any displeasure. Instead, after exchanging glances they were filled with a sense of heroism.

“If we didn’t have the courage to join the battle at that time, we might be the same as them now…”

The nine people looked at some familiar faces in the crowd. Some were not even weaker than them before, but now they were far behind.

The reason is that they had more courage and audacity, which led to the gap.

“So, this is the Golden Age!”

At this moment, they were filled with confidence and had the heart of a true powerhouse that would challenge the Eternal Level with all their might no matter what difficulties they encounter!
