CHAPTER 69: CHAPTER 66: LEVEL 8!

Six-legged Black Red Worms, Tier Seven Elite Insect Beasts, are extremely troublesome creatures, but to Wang Xu, they’re nothing but living energy.

"Arrange for me to have a thousand Six-legged Black Red Worms at once," Wang Xu said to Celestial Spirit.

Celestial Spirit smiled sweetly, waved her hand, and a thousand Six-legged Black Red Worms suddenly appeared in the distance.

"Kill!" Wang Xu swung his saber and charged into the swarm of a thousand Six-legged Black Red Worms, slaughtering them mercilessly.

Facing a thousand Tier Seven Insect Beasts, even a Tier Nine Peak expert would act cautiously, but Wang Xu had no such concerns. He attacked boldly, breaking in and out of the encirclement of the thousands of Six-legged Black Red Worms. Blood splattered all over the ground, and the scent of blood filled the air.

Moments later—

"Devour!" Wang Xu sat cross-legged on the ground, and the Mysterious Flame burst forth.

The ground, already soaked with blood, became a crimson battlefield, with the bodies of thousands of Six-legged Black Red Worms densely scattered around.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~

The Mysterious Flame devoured all the Insect Beasts’ bodies, returning to Wang Xu’s body, emitting waves of powerful energy.

"Celestial Spirit, this time, make it two thousand," Wang Xu commanded.

Celestial Spirit waved her hand again, and two thousand Six-legged Black Red Worms appeared. Wang Xu, while utilizing the energy within himself to impact his Realm, began swinging his Great Saber to attack.

Breaking through the Realm while fighting is something no ordinary person would dare to do.

If one is not careful, the energy could backfire, preventing the advancement of the Realm, and even damaging the body, causing a decline in level and strength, which is a thankless task.

Wang Xu had no such worries; for him, slaughtering Six-legged Black Red Worms was as easy as turning his hand. With just a few energy, swinging his Great Saber with a slice and a sweep, swathes of Six-legged Black Red Worms died, and no matter their number, they couldn’t touch him, left only to be slaughtered by him.

Just like that, Wang Xu’s Realm steadily advanced.

When he finished off a total of ten thousand Six-legged Black Red Worms, his Realm barely reached the late stage of Tier Seven.

After slaughtering thirty thousand Six-legged Black Red Worms, his Realm reached the peak of Tier Seven...

When fifty thousand Six-legged Black Red Worms were converted into an immensely vast amount of energy, Wang Xu sat down and began to assault Tier Eight.

The energy Wang Xu required was enormous, far more than a hundred times that of others at the same level, with a significant portion absorbed by the core, while the remainder was absorbed by Wang Xu.

"Zzzz~" Wang Xu could clearly feel every cell in his body boiling. The stronger the power, the more sensitive he became to changes in his physical body. Each cell was fervently devouring energy, continually strengthening Wang Xu’s body.

With the energy of as many as fifty thousand Tier Seven Insect Beasts, this energy could destroy a Safe Zone if used to fire a Laser Energy Cannon, yet now it was all absorbed by Wang Xu, solely for advancing to Tier Eight, which shows how massive the energy Wang Xu required was.

"Boom!" A silent explosion erupted within Wang Xu’s body, the ground suddenly sank where he sat, and Wang Xu opened his eyes, his gaze sharp like an invincible sword, capable of piercing everything.

"Tier Eight, this feeling is marvelous." Power surged within him, and Wang Xu felt the air shift as he waved casually. His perception became even more acute, and Wang Xu believed if he faced humanoid metal again, he would not be so embarrassed, even capable of completely crushing it.

"Celestial Spirit, how long has it been?" Wang Xu asked.

A beautiful figure appeared, with a sweet smile on her face: "Master, you’ve been hunting for thirty-two hours, would you like to leave the Hunting Ground?"

"Thirty-two hours? So it’s been a whole day, slaughtering for a day and a night; my state of mind almost fell into madness. I need to rest first. Celestial Spirit, give me the location and details of all the treasures. I want to collect a few treasures," Wang Xu said.

"Okay, Master," Celestial Spirit smiled.

Soon, Wang Xu’s Light Computer received a lot of information. With a cursory glance, Wang Xu couldn’t help but exclaim "Eh."

"Celestial Spirit, what level are these treasures?" Wang Xu asked. The treasures varied in shape, some looked like Copper Bells, some like a ruler, and even tables and chairs, all sorts of oddities.

"Master, the ones you’re looking at now are all ’Star Spiritual Treasures,’ born from the stars. They’re divided into Initial Grade, Upper Grade, and Spiritual Grade," Celestial Spirit smiled, "Your Realm Level is at Basic Level Eighth Rank, and Upper Grade Star Spiritual Treasures would be too burdensome for you. You can use Initial Grade Star Spiritual Treasures."

"Star Spiritual Treasures? Born from the stars?" Wang Xu had never heard of such treasures before, but after thinking about it, he knew it must be the technology from the vast cosmos, far more powerful than Earth’s Mortal Iron Technology. At this thought, Wang Xu was eager and immediately ordered, "Celestial Spirit, filter out the sword-like forms and defensive armor types of Star Spiritual Treasures for me."

"Yes, Master." Celestial Spirit’s eyes twinkled with green light, and after a moment, she waved her hand, presenting a screen in front of Wang Xu.

The screen displayed numerous saber-shaped weapons. Wang Xu glanced briefly, unable to discern their value, and chose a Great Saber engraved with a Five-clawed Golden Dragon.

"Carved Moon Cyan Dragon Saber." Wang Xu’s eyes lit up, "What a great name!"

"This is the one!" The list contained only Initial Grade Star Spiritual Treasures, so Wang Xu didn’t bother picking further and directly selected this Carved Moon Cyan Dragon Saber.

There weren’t many defensive armor-type Star Spiritual Treasures. You must know Xian Qu was a significant figure at the Mixed Universe Realm, to him these Star Spiritual Treasures were trash, naturally, he wouldn’t intentionally hoard many. From them, Wang Xu selected a "Water Patterned Scale Armor."

"Celestial Spirit, transport me to the location of the treasures."

Celestial Spirit waved her hand, and Wang Xu’s figure flickered, disappearing.

......

In a tattered Cultivation Room, the God of Slaughter was covered in wounds and in a desolate state.

"God of Slaughter, obediently hand over the treasure. You won’t be able to take it away," the three Apostles forced the God of Slaughter into the Cultivation Room, launching an attack on him.

Even though the God of Slaughter’s strength was immense, facing three Tier Nine Peak experts at the same time was overwhelming after an extended period.

Hei Teng and his group had pursued the God of Slaughter for an entire day from yesterday until today, discovering several treasures in the process, yet they still coveted the treasure in the God of Slaughter’s possession.

"You already obtained several treasures, why do you insist on wanting the one in my hand!" the God of Slaughter said harshly.

"Hehe, you can never have too many treasures, and you’re already at the end of your rope. Either hand it over willingly or we’ll kill you and take it by force. The choice is yours," Hei Teng sneered insidiously, his offensive stance unyielding.

One treasure was vital to them, and if they had obtained several treasures before encountering the God of Slaughter, they might not have troubled him. But now the God of Slaughter was done for, and with a treasure about to be in their grasp, how could they simply give up?

The God of Slaughter’s face was pale, his Bronze Sword full of notches and cracks, barely holding up.

At this moment...

Whoosh!

A figure suddenly appeared in the Cultivation Room.

The three of them sensed the appearance of an unfamiliar presence and were immediately startled, hastily scattering.

"Wang Xu? Is it you!" Hei Teng saw the newcomer, and his face sank. "How did you get in here?"

The door to the Cultivation Room had long been sealed by the three to prevent escape. Otherwise, how could the God of Slaughter have allowed their assault?

Yet Wang Xu entered the Cultivation Room without a sound. Such an occurrence was too bizarre.

Wang Xu, just teleported here, felt a blur before his eyes. When he saw Hei Teng and the two others wearing Celestial God Battle Group emblems on their chests, his eyebrows furrowed.

"Leader!" Wang Xu also saw the God of Slaughter drenched in fresh blood and pale-faced, and he exclaimed, rushing over.

"Wang Xu, you’ve advanced to Tier Eight?" The God of Slaughter recognized Wang Xu’s Realm Level, but he didn’t have time to care, pushing Wang Xu with a hand. "I’ll hold them off. You must leave quickly!"

With three Tier Nine Peak experts here, even if Wang Xu had advanced to Tier Eight, it was futile. The gap between Tier Eight and Tier Nine was too great.

"Leave? You think you can come and go as you please? Kid, surrender your life to me!" A slim young man with green hair and blue eyes glinted viciously, brandishing a dagger. His body flickered, instantly arriving behind Wang Xu, the glinting dagger aimed at Wang Xu’s neck!

This strike was unpredictable, formidable even for the God of Slaughter. The green-haired youth evidently intended to end the fight swiftly, using his strongest move from the start.

"Crack!" A hand suddenly extended, and the expression on the green-haired man’s face froze. His neck was tightly seized, a burst of force surged, and his eyes rolled as large as copper bells. He struggled briefly before going limp.

Wang Xu casually tossed the green-haired man aside as if discarding trash.

The Cultivation Room plunged into a deathly silence.

Hei Teng, the Apostles, the God of Slaughter — the three of them gaped, eyes filled with incredulity, as if witnessing the most unbelievable spectacle in the world.

One hit! Just one simple hit, actually killed a Tier Nine Peak expert!

"You... are you Venerable?" Hei Teng was shocked, involuntarily retreating step by step.

The Apostles took a deep breath, trying hard to calm themselves: "Friend, this is a misunderstanding, I..."

The Apostle hadn’t finished speaking when Wang Xu kicked out. The Apostle’s body shot out like a cannonball, smashing against the wall of the Cultivation Room, leaving a dent in the Memory Mercury-formed wall.

The Apostle spat a mouthful of fresh blood, eyes filled with terror.

What kind of being was this guy? How could he possibly be this powerful, leaving them with no chance to resist at all!

The Apostles had seen powerful geniuses before, but no matter how strong, there had to be a limit!

"No... you can’t be Venerable, the Warship Ruins wouldn’t allow an Ultimate Venerable Level person in..." Hei Teng stuttered incoherently, seeing Wang Xu stepping closer with a pale face, saying, "You... you can’t kill me, I’m a member of the Hei Family, you can’t!"

Hei Teng was terrified.

Wang Xu killed a Tier Nine Peak with one strike, kicked an Apostle to spew blood; even if Hei Teng was formidable, he couldn’t achieve such feats.

Wang Xu was too strong!

Strong to an incredible degree!

"Hand over the treasures you’ve acquired," Wang Xu said coldly.
