Chapter 289: Chapter 288: Entering the First Small World!

Translator: 549690339

While everyone was astonished, Du Gang wasn’t idle either. He took this opportunity to gauge everyone’s reactions.

He found that the three people present were all looking at him curiously, their eyes full of disbelief.

Seeing this, Du Gang couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

From this, he was confident that none of these three were from the Southern Wilderness, or at the very least, they were far from the Ancient City, even so far as to never have heard of it.

Not knowing of the Ancient City was plausible because the Primordial Continent was vast. There were over ten thousand forces of various sizes. Just the top hundred God Clans alone constituted a hundred, let alone the Ancient City that was merely considered a royal power.

“You’re all not from the Southern Wilderness, right?” fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

The team leader, Kou Yingwu, smiled and explained, “Du Gang is an Ancient God, the origin bloodline of the Ancient Clan. Have you heard of the Ancient City? It’s the force that cooperates with Tianji Pavilion to publish the Primordial Daily!”

“Oh, it’s that force!”

The individuals present weren’t completely oblivious to the outside world. They had some knowledge of the Primordial Daily.

However, all they knew was that it was a highly innovative race that had come up with many novel things.

Lan Zhize revealed a puzzling look, “Wait, the Ancient City is only ranked among the thousand royal clans, right?”

His meaning was clear: a force from the Demon Domain could equate to two God Clans. How could the Ancient City, ranked at the bottom of the royal clans, stand up against them?

Kou Yingwu laughed, “What you guys don’t know is, this Ancient Clan might be just a royal clan, but their ancestors were once Supreme beings. Tracing back to their roots, they are the descendants of Pangu and Nuwa Supreme!”

“What?!”

At this moment, not only was Lan Zhize shocked, but even Tao Xuanzhu, who usually maintained her composure, let out an exclamation.

The descendants of Supreme beings left them stunned.

After all, the number of Supreme beings on the entire mainland could be counted.

This number was lesser than the number of God Clans, but the Ancient Clan actually descended from two Supreme beings, which was simply unbelievable!

Looking at their reactions, Kou Yingwu shrugged, “The situation with the Ancient Clan from the Ancient City is rather complicated, you’ll get the chance to learn about it some other time. However, compared to the Ancient Clan being mere descendants of Pangu and Nuwa, this Du Gang here is said to possess the real lineage of Pangu…”

After hearing Kou Yingwu’s explanation, the trio came to realize that Du Gang’s background was extraordinary.

“Not just that!”

Kou Yingwu laughed, cryptically speaking, “Do you guys know why the Demon Domain is hunting Du Gang?”

Everyone exchanged glances and promptly asked him to go on.

Kou Yingwu had whetted everyone’s appetite, and then admitted, “It’s said that this Du Gang is the only Ancient God in this world who has a certain chance of destroying the Demon Domain!”

“What?!”

Tao Xuanzhu felt that she had never lost her composure as much as she had today.

But she couldn’t help it. One shocking revelation after another left her feeling rather helpless.

“You… are you kidding us?!”

A man wearing a black mask could finally no longer hold back. He yanked off the mask and incredulously asked.

“Do I look like I’m joking with you?”

Kou Yingwu chuckled, suddenly transforming into a storyteller, “The founder of the Demon Domain was originally part of the Ancient Gods. However, due to some reasons, he defected and renamed himself as an Ancient Demon…”

“The Ancient Gods and Ancient Demons share an undying enmity. The Ancient Demon that betrayed the Ancient Gods created a force such as the Demon Domain. This suggests that the only Ancient God with the legitimate bloodline can do the same!”

“Do you now understand the potential of the Ancient God Clan?”

As he spoke, his gaze also fell on Du Gang, a look of envy showing in his eyes.

If not for the fact that he knew Du Gang was an Ancient God, he wouldn’t be so courteous to him. After all, if it were anyone else, even the flesh and blood of a God King, he wouldn’t bat an eye.

“My heavens!”

Lan Zhize looked at Du Gang’s face, his mouth agape.

“I thought that your identity as a disciple of Hong Qigong was impressive enough, but who knew you actually…”

He was at a loss for words. At first, when he heard Kou Yingwu mention Du Gang’s name, he thought he had mistaken Du Gang for someone else; someone who was impersonating and seeking to misuse the reputation of Hong Qigong.

However, after listening to Kou Yingwu’s complete introduction, he finally understood. This Du Gang wasn’t impersonating someone. He was actually a bronze in the guise of a conqueror!

Setting aside that he is a descendant of two Supreme beings, even his equivalency to a Supreme being, and a counterpart to the Ancient Demon who established the Demon Domain, was enough to highlight his potential.

On the other side, Tao Xuanzhu also wore a look of amazement. She had previously been wondering why Du Gang wasn’t affected by her physique.

Now it made sense. His physique was not worse than hers!

Du Gang didn’t stop Kou Yingwu’s explanation. All these people were from different continents, and knowing his story wasn’t a big deal, and it wouldn’t have any impact on him in the outside world.

As for the situation within the Heavenly Court, it didn’t matter. They were all in the same boat.

[World activation, please enter Jin Biao’s mini world within one minute…]

[Mission: Kill the Child of Fate]

[Reward: One Merit Point (note, collective mission, Merit Points awarded vary depending on contributions)]

[Failure Punishment: Extermination!]

“Divide one Merit Point?”

Du Gang was startled. Killing the Child of Fate only rewarded one Merit Point and five people had to share it?

Moreover…

The penalty for failing the mission was extermination!

He swallowed hard, turned his head, and asked, “Extermination for failing the mission, is it true?”

Lan Zhize shook his head, “I don’t know about that, I’ve never seen it firsthand…”

“It’s true!”

At this moment, Kou Yingwu straightforwardly nodded, smiling, “You definitely wouldn’t want to experience what failure feels like!”

“However, I’ve witnessed it!”

“What?!”

Everyone looked at him with faces of shock and uncertainty.

“Wait, failing a mission means extermination, right? So how could you have witnessed it?!”

Kou Yingwu smiled, saying, “You probably don’t know yet, but at the God Spirit Level phase, one Merit Point can cancel out one extermination!”

“This means that as long as you hold one Merit Point, you may evade death once, that is, if you fail in a mission!”

Is that so?

Du Gang silently nodded. At least there was another way to avoid mission failure.

However, cancelling out mission extermination with just one Merit Point, wasn’t that a little too expensive?

Thinking about this, he hurriedly asked, “Other than the one Merit Point awarded by the mission, are there any other ways to earn new Merit Points?”

Tao Xuanzhu and the others didn’t speak, but turned their eyes to Kou Yingwu. Clearly, they also didn’t know and were eager to hear the explanation of the individual who had been on the most missions.

As Kou Yingwu walked towards the passage that had been opened beneath them, he laughed and said, “From what we’ve seen so far, there’s not, the only way to earn Merit Points is through the orbs!”

“Also, aren’t you guys curious if extermination really exists?”

He paused, glared at the others menacingly, and sneered, “Of course it exists. That time, there were five of us on a mission. We were just a step away from completing it when we failed. The other four didn’t have spare Merit Points and so in the blink of an eye, when we failed the mission, they died instantly!”

He seemed to be immersed in some kind of memory, inadvertently revealing deep fear.

“You don’t understand. That kind of obliteration not only eliminates their bodies but even their divine entities die along with them!”

“Moreover, not just the divine entities opening to this place, but those staying in the outside world also all die at the same time!”

“What?!”

This time, not just the three of them, even Du Gang raised his voice in shock.

“Hehe!”

Kou Yingwu chuckled lightly and continued, “That’s right; this kind of obliteration doesn’t only erase the divine entities performing tasks in the world, it also annihilates your divine entities waiting outside!”

This…

Facing Kou Yingwu’s words, all four stared in astonishment, yearning for him to joke and say, ‘I’m just kidding’.

But regrettably, as if Kou Yingwu was worried that no one would believe him, he took out a Recording Stone and started playing it.

“What shall we do, the task is going to fail!”

“Let it fail, then, I can’t do anything about it. Fortunately, only one divine entity was lost…”

In the video, not just Kou Yingwu, three others who were now the butt of the joke didn’t even have a shred of anxiety and were joking about it.

“At that time, we thought that obliteration was just the extermination of the divine entity in the Heavenly Court…”

Kou Yingwu withdrew his previous jest, expressing a numb and calm demeanor, akin to the quiet after the storm.

“But in reality, obliteration is making your existence completely disappear from this world, erasing all divine entities, no matter where they are!”

As he talked, the punishment brought by the orb descending in the video finally appeared.

[Task Failed. Erase!]

With a sound similar to a mechanical electronic voice, everyone present, except for Kou Yingwu, died in an instant!

This type of death left no wounds, their entire bodies slowly became nothingness, as if they had turned into stone.

“What’s happening to me?”

“My body!”

“I can’t control myself!”

“Damn it, this kind of obliteration…no good…I must sever the connection with my main body here…”

In the video, a man unable to bear the suffering self-detonates.

But, it was futile!

At this moment, everyone’s eyes seemed to traverse numerous distances, distinctly witnessing that scene.

The divine entities of everyone, disappeared without a trace in that instant!

Just like a chain reaction, when one dies, all others die as well.

This means…

Du Gang, watching the video in shock, was reminded of a book he read on Earth titled, ‘One Hundred Thousand Whys’.

The book mentioned that in the future, there might be a technology called ‘gene obliteration’. This is a hypothetical weapon designed to completely eliminate mosquitoes by destroying their entire species.

Right now, that hypothetical horror was happening!

The reason divine entities are referred to as God Spirit Level is due to their endless lifespan, and their ability to resurrect endlessly as long as the divine entity does not die.

This trait makes it extremely difficult for each God Spirit Level being to die.

But now, the erasure by the orb shattered all of these advantages.

It means that if you’re obliterated in the task world, then you’re truly done for!

“At that time, I was very lucky. I was accumulating Merit Points, preparing to exchange them for something…That’s how I escaped the First Tribulation!”

“Now, you understand, right?”

Kou Yingwu said with a smile, “What you have to do now is to try your best to complete the task, avoid becoming the one who dies…”

Observing his nonchalant attitude, Du Gang asked, “Do you…still have any Merit?”

“Hahahaha!”

Kou Yingwu chuckled heartily, nodding, “Exactly, I saved some Merit for myself, preventing the fate of being obliterated after any task failure.”

So that’s it!

Du Gang sighed and turned to face Tao Xuanzhu and the others, “What about you guys? Do you have any extra Merit?”

He primarily focused on Tao Xuanzhu because she was the last among those remaining to enter, trailing only Kou Yingwu in terms of experience in different worlds.

Tao Xuanzhu understood what Du Gang wanted, and sighed deep within her heart.

If she had known, she wouldn’t have reacted with surprise earlier.

You could say that she had thought the obliteration was merely the extermination of a single divine entity, hence her nonchalant and carefree demeanor.

But now…

“We have to pull ourselves together!”

Lan Zhize exclaimed, “We must go all out now to complete the task. Otherwise, nobody, except Kou Yingwu, will survive!”

Tao Xuanzhu nodded, “Yes, we can only succeed in our mission, there is no room for failure!”

She did not want to die here; she still had many things to do!

Hearing her determination, the male in black, Jia Xiangming, was once again affected, and his behavior became odd.

“To die with the fairy…”

Before he could finish, Kou Yingwu slapped him.

“Quit bumbling, you lack any meditation power!”

With this slap, the man in black, Jia Xiangming, was immediately snapped back into reality.

“Uh…”

He felt very embarrassed, while everyone else seemed unaffected, he was always getting influenced!

Thinking of this, he hastily stepped back several paces, distancing himself from Tao Xuanzhu, fearing further influence.

Tao Xuanzhu, accustomed to this sort of behavior, showed no reaction.

“Enough, don’t waste any more time. Let’s go in first!”

Although Kou Yingwu had a bit of Merit as insurance, his Merit wasn’t gotten windfall, thus he could not afford to waste it.

By now, the door of the mini-world had been open for half a minute. With only half of the one-minute time limit given by the orb remaining.

Du Gang, filled with curiosity, asked, “What would happen if we do not enter the mini-world within the stipulated time?”

“Haha!”

Kou Yingwu chuckled, “If you don’t enter, it’s the same as evading the task, so naturally, it directly determines the task as a failure and obliterates you!”

Upon hearing this, everyone present trembled, and without saying another word, leaped in. In a matter of moments, everyone dove into the mini-world.

Seeing this, Kou Yingwu shook his head, following after them.

After the five of them had all entered the mini-world, the transparent cover created by the Heavenly Court in mid-air promptly vanished.
