"All full?" Wang Xu frowned.
The Cultivation Room was overcrowded, right at peak time, with talents from various nations gathered here, chatting as they waited for the Cultivation Room to become available.
Wang Xu was helpless and could only stand at the end of the queue, patiently waiting.
Fortunately, each session in the Cultivation Room lasted two hours, and only three people were ahead of Wang Xu.
"Just wait six hours." Wang Xu closed his eyes and entered a meditative state of insight among the four endless aspects.
Meditative insight could only be used to comprehend Secret Techniques, like regular meditation, allowing one to think through certain issues and details more thoroughly. But to truly elevate the realm of the Secret Technique, practical exercises were necessary.
Wang Xu couldn’t directly unleash Endless Fire in the hotel, nor could he use it to cultivate Endless Saber. His only option was to rent a temporary Cultivation Room as a place for practice.
Six hours passed quietly.
Wang Xu stood at the door, with Cosmic Martial Artists queueing behind him, chatting among themselves, but only a few were in silent insight.
The two-hour limit was almost up when suddenly, a robust figure walked over and stood directly in front of Wang Xu without a word.
"Huh?" Wang Xu frowned immediately, "Friend, you should get in line at the back."
"Friend, what friend, are we that familiar?" The robust figure turned, snorted with his large nostrils, and looked down at Wang Xu, his imposing aura overwhelming.
Wang Xu spoke coldly, "I don’t have the patience to waste words with you, get to the back."
Having waited six hours, Wang Xu was about to take his turn when this unexpected person cut in line, and no matter how generous Wang Xu was, he couldn’t swallow this grievance.
"Hmph! Just an insignificant Invincible Black Hole Level kid, dare to provoke me? If you want to die, I can help you!" The robust figure’s High Class White Hole Level aura spread, lifting his chin as he looked down at Wang Xu with indifferent eyes.
Wang Xu’s face turned cold, and he turned his head to ask the Cosmic Martial Artist behind him, "Is killing prohibited here?"
The Cosmic Martial Artist was momentarily taken aback by Wang Xu’s unexpected question, then spoke, "This is the Martial Hall, fighting is allowed, but threatening life is not."
"Haha..." The robust figure laughed, looking contemptuously at Wang Xu, "You want to fight me? As a Black Hole Level, I’m afraid you can’t even withstand my fingertip!"
The robust figure sneered, "Do you know who I am? I’m a genius from Thunder Rift Cosmic Country, do you think you stand a chance against me?"
Wang Xu’s eyes flashed; Thunder Rift Cosmic Country... weren’t they the ones riding Thunder-Split Giant Beasts on the streets over a decade ago?
The commotion here drew the attention of talented individuals from surrounding countries, who stared curiously.
Upon hearing the robust figure’s identity, they all showed slight change in expression and their gaze inevitably fell on Wang Xu.
"He’s going to have bad luck."
"Thunder Rift Cosmic Country is one of the Ten Extremes Great Country, and that person was sent as one of three ministers, probably comparable to an Invincible White Hole Level."
"Invincible White Hole Level versus Invincible Black Hole Level, which is stronger? Haha!"
"Are you deliberately mocking him? He’s miserable enough already."
The talents from various countries were all defiant; they might extend sympathy to ordinary Cosmic Martial Artists, but for Wang Xu, they only offered ridicule and watched the spectacle with anticipation.
Just then, the Cultivation Room’s door opened.
A figure in black Scale Armor, with a red mark resembling a crow on his chest, stepped out slowly.
"Oh heavens, it’s actually Red Owl Elephant!"
The talents from various countries were astonished and hurriedly bowed, as Red Owl Cosmic Country ranked second among the Ten Extremes Great Countries, equivalent to a Super Cosmic Country in strength. No one dared to offend them here.
"Red Owl Elephant?" Wang Xu looked at the bald man with fiery red decorations on his face, thinking, is this the seed contender capable of taking first place?
"Ahaha, bald head, I didn’t expect to find you here." Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd, and the talents from various countries were stunned. Who dared to address Red Owl Elephant so brazenly?
Wang Xu turned to look, seeing a gaunt man in a white robe, his skin glowing with golden radiance, approaching with a smile.
"My heavens, Togu City!"
"Encountering three talents from the Ten Extremes Great Country in one day, truly eye-opening today."
"Look at that golden skin; could it be Togu City’s ’Golden Indestructible Body’? It’s said his physique has reached the Immortal Chaos Realm, undying and indestructible. Even if blasted to bits, he could regenerate as long as a single hair remains?!"
"Naturally, that’s why Togu City is confident in vying for the Super Cosmic Country seat in the qualification battle!"
The talents from various countries exclaimed, unable to close their mouths in surprise.
Moluo Yue, Togu City, Red Owl Elephant... these names were icons and legends among Cosmic Martial Artists, akin to idol stars, and now appearing before them, inevitably stirred excitement.
Wang Xu was slightly moved, a physique reaching Immortal Chaos Realm, undying and indestructible... to reach such a level within a thousand years, one’s talent transcended genius and was monstrously extraordinary.
The robust figure showed changed expression upon seeing the two, then his gaze turned fierce, addressing Wang Xu, "Kid, be smart and kneel down to apologize. I’ll spare your life!"
The voice wasn’t loud, but everyone present heard it clearly, including Red Owl Elephant and Togu City, whose eyes all turned in response.
The robust figure was delighted at this, seeking precisely this effect.
To display his prowess before two monstrous talents from the Ten Extremes Great Countries, the robust figure felt unprecedented satisfaction and was even more hostile toward Wang Xu.
"What if I say no?" Wang Xu’s eyes were cold.
"If you dare to defy me, then go to hell!" The stout figure didn’t pause, suddenly launching a massive punch.
This punch, aimed directly at the location of Wang Xu’s black hole.
The Martial Hall prohibits fatal injuries, but there is no rule against crippling a black hole.
The talents from various countries saw it and thought another cripple was about to be born.
If it were an ordinary black hole level, they might despair and resign to fate; this was an invincible white hole level strike, and a black hole level martial artist had no power to resist.
But the stout figure chose the wrong person.
A seemingly ordinary fist extended, inconspicuous compared to the massive fist of the stout figure.
"Still want to resist? Ridiculous!" The stout figure showed a confident expression, already imagining the scene of this black hole level becoming a cripple.
However, when the ordinary fist collided with his, the confident expression on the stout figure’s face suddenly froze.
Then, his face showed extreme horror.
"Poof!" The massive fist exploded directly, turning into a mist of blood.
The ordinary fist continued unabated, striking the white hole of the stout figure.
A series of clear shattering sounds rang out, the stout figure painfully curled up, able to see clearly that the white hole within him was shattered by a powerful force, the void collapsed, white light scattered, the black hole silently vanished...
Around the Martial Hall, following the clear sound of shattering, it became so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
Soon, the noise from the talents of various countries filled the entire hall.
"Oh my god, what... what just happened?"
"Did I see it wrong just now? Wasn’t the one who should fall that short human?"
"Who asked me which is stronger, invincible white hole level or invincible black hole level!"
"Who is he? To deal with an invincible white hole level in one blow, he must be a talent from the Ten Extremes Great Country, but how come I’ve never heard of him?"
The Red Owl Elephant looked at the expressionless Wang Xu, his eyes showing a flicker.
"This person is not simple," Red Owl Elephant said.
Togu City laughed, "Indeed, I didn’t even expect an invincible black hole level to take out Lei Lie’s guy in one strike."
In terms of strength, being able to shatter the opponent’s white hole naturally means being able to take the opponent’s life.
Wang Xu’s move has already shown absolute strength... white hole level before him is vulnerable!
"You... who are you..." The stout figure trembled, fearfully looking at Wang Xu, his realm rapidly reversed, his aura continuously weakened.
"You are not qualified to know," Wang Xu said coldly, stepping over the stout figure, walked to the Cultivation Room door, inserted his room card, the Cultivation Room door opened, Wang Xu strode in.
As Wang Xu left, the aftermath of the event lingered among the talents from various countries, and people began to investigate Wang Xu’s background, wanting to see if he really was a talent from the Ten Extremes Great Country.
In the eyes of the talents from various countries, Wang Xu’s status suddenly climbed numerous steps.
Everyone unanimously thought of one question: this person, likely might be the candidate to win first place!
At the same time when the Martial Hall was bustling, over the Thousand Layers Main City, three stealthy cosmic battleships quietly flew by.
Each of these cosmic battleships was as massive as a star, majestic in aura, just looking at them implied that the people who could ride them were of respected identity and status.
Suddenly, the void twisted, a figure of a white-haired old man stepped out of the void.
Deceitful Prison Celestial God.
The doors of the three warships opened wide, and three figures stepped out simultaneously.
A person in silver-white armor, silver-white boots, a silver-white helmet, with a huge silver-white curved blade on his back emitting a cold glint.
This person was clad in silver-white, with a dazzling silver-white badge on his chest made of special material, inscribed with a vortex-like emblem.
A radiant woman walked through the void, dressed in red, untainted, yet her face was as cold as an iceberg.
Around her neck hung a red pendant crafted from special material, engraved with mysterious cosmic script, precisely the word "mercenary."
The last was a white-haired elder, celestial and wise, with a five-foot Cyan Sword on his back.
This person had no markings, but Wang Xu here would surely recognize with one glance.
This white-haired elder was Qing Zhang!
"Deceitful Prison, greeting the three seniors." Deceitful Prison Celestial God greeted respectfully. (To be continued. If you work, feel free to vote for it, give monthly tickets at Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read at m.qidian.com.)
