Cosmic Professional Gladiator - Chapter 787 - 787 Miniature Abyss

787 Miniature Abyss
Whoosh.

Xu Jingming soared through the towering mountains, his path akin to a swift blur of a spear. He effortlessly glided past numerous peaks, surpassing even the speed at which Sovereign Yaming had fled in the past!

Only an invincible powerhouse at the half-step third-realm could attain such formidable velocity despite the constraints imposed by the Ultimate Land’s laws.

I easily tore through the sky to reach this speed. The tremendous power coursing through Xu Jingming’s body filled him with awe. He had already curbed his flight speed, but if he desired, he could even break free from the suppressive shackles of the Ultimate Land’s laws and teleport short distances.

Nevertheless, employing such a technique would burden him immensely and expose him completely. After all, the other half-step third-realm powerhouses had to traverse the skies with far greater caution.

I was already three days behind in entering the Ultimate Land. And because of my feeble strength, I’ve been skirting its outskirts during the initial stages… I’m considered dreadfully slow when it comes to exploring. I must accelerate now, Xu Jingming pondered.

At that very moment, a distorted creature materialized out of thin air, directly in front of Xu Jingming. It lunged at him in an instant, startlingly close.

“Hmph.” Xu Jingming’s expression turned icy, and his entire form transformed into a crimson spear projection, piercing through the distorted creature’s body.

With a wretched cry, the creature collapsed to the side, revealing its true form—a spherical entity adorned with countless tiny tentacles. Its three eyes glared at Xu Jingming with anger and madness before they dimmed, and its body dissipated.

In the creature’s wake from a single slam remained three characters ingeniously combined.

This wonder, the Psychic Staff, is exceedingly handy. It can change its shape at will, usually assuming the form of a robe that clings to my body. With a mere thought… my body can transform into a weapon, a spear that delivers fatal blows to my foes. Xu Jingming found great satisfaction in this.

The spear beam formed from his ordinary body was not potent enough. Yet, with this wonder enhancing his entire being, his body now became a spear beam that stood not far from a third-realm psychic spear.

It morphs into a body-hugging robe, bolstering my defenses significantly. Whether it’s mental or physical attacks, this wonder boasts protective and deflective attributes. Xu Jingming was quite fond of it.

For instance, Sovereign Yaming discovered its ability to safeguard his mind and consciousness upon obtaining it. Only a Heart Realm powerhouse could truly unlock its full potential.

It possesses both offensive and defensive capabilities, rendering it adept at handling multifaceted perils. After stowing away the three characters, Xu Jingming resumed his flight through the mountains.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, five days had elapsed.

During this five-day span, Xu Jingming traversed various locales at breakneck speeds, encountering over ten native creatures that assailed him. Although he spotted a distant half-step third-realm powerhouse, the latter witnessed Xu Jingming’s swiftness and opted to avoid conflict.

No clash ensued.

Indeed, most of the wonders within these mountains have already been claimed. In the past five days, I have procured only a single wonder, and it belongs to the Primordial Star lineage. Its utility for me is limited, Xu Jingming ruminated. His focus now turned to psychic weapons and the Abyssal Void illusory realm.

He now focused on psychic weapons and the Abyssal Void illusory realm.

Boom!

In the distant, murky sky, lightning crackled and thunder roared, igniting crimson flames that caused quite a stir.

What’s happening? Xu Jingming wondered, peering over from a distance.

Amidst the tumultuous chaos, Xu Jingming glimpsed a floating sphere. Thunderbolts danced in the void surrounding the sphere, and fiery red flames blazed out of the void.

What a commotion! Xu Jingming exclaimed in astonishment. None of the wonders he had encountered thus far had incited such a grand disturbance.

If he were his former self, having just arrived in the Ultimate Land, Xu Jingming would have undoubtedly kept his distance.

Such chaos would undoubtedly attract formidable powerhouses! The weak would be walking straight into their own demise!

Whoosh.

Without hesitation, Xu Jingming took flight, transforming into a streaking blur resembling a spear and hurtling straight toward the floating sphere in the sky.

As he drew nearer, the sphere became clearer. It was entirely transparent, harboring within it a peculiar entity that resembled an ancient tree. Its dense vines resembled minuscule branches.

The Abyss? After years of studying the Abyssal Void legacy, Xu Jingming instantly made a discernment.

Is this a super-miniature Abyss? At a single glance, Xu Jingming discerned the intricate model of the ancient tree within the sphere. Countless branches were tightly interwoven, with many hidden from view, defying prying eyes.

Xu Jingming remained unaware of the true vastness and intricacies of the Abyss.

The Abyss permeated countless spacetimes. All that Xu Jingming had witnessed thus far was a mere projection of the Abyss in this particular spacetime.

Though Abyssal Void bears semblance to the Abyss, it pales in comparison to the intricacies of this wonder. Xu Jingming’s heart quivered with anticipation and desire. He immediately concluded, If I obtain this wonder, my comprehension of the Abyssal Void will soar to new heights. My prospects of achieving a breakthrough to the third realm within the Abyssal Void illusory realm will be greatly enhanced.

Whoosh.
With determination in his heart, Xu Jingming charged forward without a hint of hesitation!

“Back off! This wonder belongs to the Nightdream Army!” An enraged shout rang out as 12 figures joined forces and lunged toward him.

The Nightdream Army served under the third-realm entity known as Master of Antinight. Comprised entirely of invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns, they had sent their clones to the battlefield under Master of Antinight’s command.

Formidable and united, the Nightdream Army operated in small, highly skilled teams.

Each team consisted of 12 members, their teamwork impeccable, rendering them nearly invincible when they combined their strengths. Even in the Ultimate Land, the Nightdream Army had made its mark!

“So what if it’s the Nightdream Army? This super-miniature Abyss is a treasure of the Abyss lineage. We’ll slay anyone who dares to claim it!” Another group, comprising 18 invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns, exhibited equal fervor.

The elite forces of all 35 third-realm entities across this spacetime had been dispatched.

Master of Antinight commanded the Nightdream Army, while the other third-realm powerhouses led their own elite factions.

“It truly is a miniature Abyss? Just gazing upon it ignites a sense of improvement within my Abyss lineage.” Nine more figures flew in from a distance, their eyes burning with desire as they fixated on the hovering sphere.

“There are already over a hundred powerhouses in the vicinity! The appearance of this wonder, the Miniature Abyss, has stirred up an immense uproar and attracted numerous contenders. Although the nine of us have participated in the Spacetime Arena, we can’t compete against more than a hundred invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses of the same caliber!”

“These powerhouses belong to different factions, and they’re all hindering one another. Whoever manages to claim it first will be encircled by more than a hundred invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses. Thus, it will be exceedingly challenging to determine the ultimate victor within a short span of time.”

“Let us exercise patience and seize a suitable opportunity before making our move.” The nine powerhouses communicated through voice transmissions, strategizing amidst the competition.

The Miniature Abyss wonder floated in the air, triggering a tremendous uproar that drew countless powerhouses.

Such a wonder was a true treasure. But for those hailing from the Abyss lineage, it ignited an insatiable greed in their eyes.

Whoosh.

Xu Jingming was a rare solitary wolf.

While invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns formed alliances for this treasure, Xu Jingming ventured forth alone.

Boom! Boom!

A multitude of domains spread out—spatial, ice, karma, curse, maze, and destructive flames. Various attacks of the invincible half-step third realm clashed and entangled each other.

None dared to approach the Miniature Abyss, fearing the inevitable ambush by the diverse forces along the way.

Impressive Miniature Abyss. The sight of the Miniature Abyss up close left Xu Jingming even more astounded.

The entire Miniature Abyss pulsated as if it were a living entity.

Countless writhing branches and densely packed layers of Abyssal space resembled the scales of a beast. A palpable aura of destruction, darkness, and sin pervaded the air.

This is the Abyss, Xu Jingming exclaimed in surprise.

“He dares to venture in alone?”

As a team of 11 powerhouses battled against rival factions, they noticed Xu Jingming stealthily closing in.

“While we’re engaged in this fight, we can’t allow these lone wolves to pilfer the spoils. Chase him away.”

Although this powerhouse team had only recently formed upon entering the Ultimate Land, their remarkable mental agility had forged a strong bond and teamwork.

With a unanimous decision, seven powerhouses immediately launched an attack. A misty whip materialized, seemingly capable of obliterating everything in its path.

The sheer force of the misty whip’s strike caught Xu Jingming off guard.

The combined strength of seven powerhouses? Even with his protective wonder robe, it wasn’t advisable to face it head-on.

In one-on-one combat, I can dispatch an opponent in two or three strikes, but over a hundred invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses are a different matter. It’s wiser for me to be evasive, seize the opportunity, and make a swift escape. Xu Jingming vanished into thin air as the misty whip swept past.

Whoosh.

He swiftly traversed the barriers of spacetime within the Ultimate Land, disregarding the restraining domain-type maneuvers employed by numerous adversaries, until he materialized next to the wonder—the Miniature Abyss.

Xu Jingming appeared beside the Miniature Abyss as if he had apparated. This scene left the more than one hundred invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses and Abyss Sovereigns, who were engrossed in frantic combat, utterly stupefied.

They watched in disbelief.

How was this possible?

How could he breach their obstructions and materialize out of thin air?

Seize it. Xu Jingming wasted no time. The instant he arrived, he reached out and snatched the floating Miniature Abyss.

But upon storing it away, Xu Jingming felt a repulsive force emanating from the pocket universe he carried. Thus, he placed it within his stomach, securing it within his inner universe.

“The Miniature Abyss has been stolen?”

“Stop him!”

“Kill him!”

The hundred-plus powerhouses reacted swiftly, descending into a frenzy. They cast aside all restraint and launched an all-out assault on Xu Jingming, the perpetrator of the theft. A cacophony of terrifying energies instantly engulfed the vicinity.

Time to depart. Xu Jingming wasted no time in making his escape once he secured the Miniature Abyss. With a single step, he shattered the barriers of time and space, reappearing in the distance. With another step, he transformed into an inconspicuous speck. And with a third step, Xu Jingming vanished completely from the observation range of over a hundred powerhouses.
