751 Appearance of Thearch Dragon Ind Lord
The corpses of the clones were horrifying in their potential; they could be repurposed into immensely powerful weapons.
Xu Jingming stared at the five dark stars, realizing that Five Demons must have paid an exorbitant price to create such formidable clones. They might even want to reim these lifeless bodies.
Aside from their minds and consciousnesses being annihted, the clones’ bodies remained unscathed. If Five Demons desired to recover them and invested some effort in nurturing and repairing the clones, it would be rtively simple to restore them.
Whoosh.
Xu Jingming waved his hand and collected the five clone corpses.
Numerous higher-dimensional beings witnessed this event, etching it into their memories as something they would never forget.
“The infamous Five Demons was actually vanquished by Wu Ming of Myriad Star Ind. They lost five against one. Just how powerful is Wu Ming?”
“Could he have advanced to the half-step third realm? It would make sense for someone from the Heart Realm lineage at that level to defeat the Five Demons.”
“But if he’s truly at the half-step third realm, wouldn’t he have monopolized the entire mineral deposit? It’s impossible for him to only take 30%, right?”
Whispers spread among the various factions near the vast mineral deposits.
They couldn’t bear to part with the mineral resources, but they feared Xu Jingming!
He had in Natuo with a single blow.
In a one-on-five confrontation, Five Demons’s clones were vanquished. Naturally, they were terrified of Xu Jingming!
“Has Jingming’s power truly reached this extent?” The dean, Tower Master, and Ind Lord couldn’t believe it.
He was incredibly formidable! Xu Jingming’s growth had been rapid, and his strength was now awe-inspiring.
He had single-handedly defeated Five Demons!
In the entire dominion, Xu Jingming was the closest to reaching the half-step third realm.
At the same time, a surge of tion washed over the dean, Tower Master, Ind Lord, and the others! This was because such a remarkable and fearsome being was part of their human race and their most trusted ally.
“Dean.” Xu Jingming strode back and dered, “Resume mining.”
“Jingming, have you attained the half-step third realm?” Tower Master inquired through a voice transmission. “If you truly have, it would be reasonable for us to im the entirerge mineral deposit.”
“I haven’t reached the half-step third realm,” Xu Jingming responded via voice transmission.
Once one’s umtion reached a specific threshold, a higher-dimensional body could fully dominate the spatialyer. When that urred, they could peer into the fifth dimension’s timeline. Only then would one be deemed worthy of the title half-step third realm.
As Xu Jingming’s power grew, he sensed that his Heart Realm body’s foray into the spatialyer was expanding. However, it still hadn’t epassed the entireyer, let alone possess the ability to pry into the timeline.
The potency of the Golden Halberd he forged surpassed expectations solely because he had cultivated the Heart Realm’s highly offensive psychic weapon school and grasped a spear technique left behind by an Ultimate being.
“30% of the mineral deposits is sufficient. Dig quickly.” The dean had already unleashed the forbidden domain’s power andmenced mining. “We’ve dealt with Five Demons. The next challenger could be a half-step third-realm powerhouse.”
“You defeated Five Demons in a one-on-five battle. I genuinely believed you had reached the half-step third realm, Jingming.” Tower Master shook his head and resumed mining with fervor. “With your strength, Myriad Star Ind’s standing in the dominion has be increasingly secure.”
Ind Lord grinned broadly. “In my view, as long as Jingming concentrates on his cultivation, I have no doubt he will reach the half-step third realm eventually.”
Upon witnessing Xu Jingming vanquish Five Demons single-handedly, the higher-dimensional beings present either suspected that he had already attained the half-step third realm or believed he was on the verge of achieving it.
…
The Primordial Star was the greatest celestial body in high-dimensional space. Regardless of the spacetime, timeline, or dominion, the Primordial Star illuminated them all!
High-dimensional lifeforms of the Primordial Star lineage yearned to draw closer to the Primordial Star, but no matter how near they ventured, they still sensedyers of spacetime separating them from the celestial giant! Only the sporadic bursts of Primordial Star me allowed them to feel as though the Primordial Star was within their grasp.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The surging Primordial Star me repeatedly dissipated and engulfed the surrounding area.
A pce floated in this realm, home to Five Demons.
“That Myriad Star Ind’s Wu Ming is a true monster,” the members of Five Demons concurred as they gathered while the Primordial Star me washed over them time after time, providing an intense sense offort.
Naturally, they didn’t want to venture any closer.
At their current distance, they felt at ease, but if they approached further, they would experience excruciating pain.
“I’vebored for years to create a total of three clones, and now I’ve lost one.” The short and rotund Star Lord shook his head, feeling the sting.
“Having only two clones, losing one hurts even more.”
“I suspect Wu Ming is a half-step third-realm powerhouse of the Heart Realm lineage.”
“Yes, I also believe he’s a half-step third-realm powerhouse from the Heart Realm lineage. How else could he have obliterated our clones’ minds and consciousnesses?”
Five Demons had encountered numerous powerhouses and battled many from the Heart Realm lineage! In their opinion, no one below the half-step third realm could vanquish their clones!
“Since Wu Ming of Myriad Star Ind isn’t willing to publicly admit it, we don’t have to concern ourselves with that. More importantly… we must devise a way to retrieve our clones’ corpses.”
“We’ll likely have to trade valuable treasures to acquire them.”
“I think it’s worth buying as long as it costs less than one drop of Abyssal Mother Blood.”
The quintet deliberated. Their top priority was to purchase the corpses of the five clones. Any dy could prove disastrous if the clone corpses were transformed into weapons.
At this point, they harbored no further ambitions for any substantial treasure trove!
With Xu Jingming in the mix, victory was unattainable!
******
Xu Jingming and the others imed 30% of the vast mineral deposit. Previously, other factions believed that Myriad Star Ind was too greedy to dare take so much! Now, they felt Myriad Star Ind was too magnanimous to only im so little!
Hadn’t the Five Demons immediately staked out 50% upon arrival? Given Wu Ming’s strength, 30% seemed hardly excessive.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The dean, Tower Master, and Ind Lord were ecstatic as they fervently excavated the Primordial Gold.
Meanwhile, other factions were embroiled in conflict. With so many factions converging, it was only natural they would fiercely vie for their share.
Suddenly—
A terrifying aura permeated the entire mineral deposit.
All the high-dimensional lifeforms, including Xu Jingming, turned their attention to the sight of a massive ck alien beast towing avish carriage through the void towards them. This alien beast was cloaked in ck scales, its aura instilling fear and dread in the high-dimensional lifeforms present. A gaunt figure sat in the carriage, his detached gaze sweeping across those assembled.
“Thearch Dragon Ind Lord!” All the high-dimensional lifeforms recognized the individual.
Xu Jingming did as well.
Thearch Dragon Ind Lord was famed for possessing a half-step third-realm mount—Thearch Dragon! Having a Thearch Dragon pull his carriage was his signature.
In terms of strength, Thearch Dragon Ind Lord was rtively unremarkable among half-step third-realm powerhouses, but when it came to background, none in the neighboring dominions could rival him. He was a personal disciple of a third-realm entity, a fact Xu Jingming was well aware of.
Thearch Dragon Ind Lord was overbearing, and all half-step third-realm powerhouses in the surrounding dominions, including the Abyss Overlords, had to yield to him!
“What a bountiful treasure trove.”
Thearch Dragon Ind Lord smiled, eliciting an involuntary positive impression from the high-dimensional lifeforms present. Simultaneously, an invisible force emanated, engulfing the entire mineral deposit.
Crack! Crack!
Innumerable rocks shattered, and a multitude of Primordial Gold Beads and Primordial Gold Chunks soared into the air. The entire deposit was instantaneously mined, with all the Primordial Gold hurtling toward Thearch Dragon Ind Lord.
At that moment, all the high-dimensional lifeforms were seething with envy and anxiety as they watched, but they were powerless to act.
“He can actually extract all the Primordial Gold in an instant.” The expressions of the dean, Tower Master, Ind Lord, and Xu Jingming shifted subtly.
Mining wasn’t a simple task; it required a gradual approach, but Thearch Dragon Ind Lord’s excavation was astoundingly swift. In just a few seconds, everything had been mined!
“Jingming, don’t provoke Thearch Dragon Ind Lord. He has nothing to fear, and he could annihte our entire human race in a fit of rage. Plus, he has a third-realm existence backing him… Even if we can kill him, the third-realm existence can revive him,” the dean immediately cautioned via voice transmission. “Those half-step third-realm powerhouses aren’t eager to provoke him either.”
“I understand,” Xu Jingming responded via voice transmission. “Dean, you’re overestimating me. Thearch Dragon Ind Lord is a true half-step third realm after all. I can’t harm him in the slightest. Besides, he’s renowned for possessing countless treasures!”
Thearch Dragon Ind Lord had an abundance of treasures—even those pulling his carriage were all half-step third-realm mounts.
Who wouldn’t be envious and jealous?
“Yes, quite a substantial mineral deposit.” Thearch Dragon Ind Lord observed the vast number of Primordial Gold Beads and Primordial Gold Chunks hovering before him. “There’s a total of about 300,000 Primordial Gold Beads.”
All the high-dimensional lifeforms were enticed, but none dared to challenge him. They also scrutinized Wu Ming from Myriad Star Ind, suspecting that… Wu Ming might be a half-step third realm as well.
Would Wu Ming just stand by and do nothing?
This Thearch Dragon Ind Lord is a genuine half-step third-realm powerhouse, and he’s notorious for his vast collection of treasures! He undoubtedly has all sorts of life-preserving items. It would be madness to provoke him. Xu Jingming was well aware of this.
Thearch Dragon Ind Lord’s gaze shifted and settled on Xu Jingming in the distance. He grinned. “You defeated Five Demons singlehandedly. Remarkable.”
Xu Jingming was slightly taken aback. Given Thearch Dragon Ind Lord’s reputation for arrogance, his affability was unexpected.
Not wanting to appear impolite, Xu Jingming promptly replied, “Thearch Dragon Ind Lord, you tter me. I merely excel in psychic weapons and happen to counteract them effectively.”
“Don’t be modest. You defeated Five Demons just 10,000 years after reaching the Eternal realm. I’ve never seen anyone progress so rapidly, even while I was with my Master,” Thearch Dragon Ind Lordmended with a smile. “Your talent is extraordinary.”
“Brother Wu Ming, with your aptitude, it likely won’t be long before you effortlessly attain the half-step third realm,” Thearch Dragon Ind Lord said congenially. “You discovered this mineral deposit first, so it wouldn’t be fitting for me to monopolize it. How about this? We’ll divide the deposit equally.”
Having said that, Thearch Dragon Ind Lord gestured, and half of the Primordial Gold Beads and Chunks floating in front of him soared toward Xu Jingming.
This sight left the surrounding high-dimensional lifeforms dumbstruck.
Xu Jingming was also quite surprised.
He was giving him half of the mineral deposit just like that?
