Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 134 - 130: Battle of Geniuses

"You... you..."

The crowd of Cosmic Martial Artists behind the crocodile man were all dumbfounded, staring at Wang Xu with wide eyes, unable to speak for a long while.

Wang Xu slowly withdrew his fist, his gaze slightly cold. He hadn’t used any War Soldiers, only the pure ten-thousandfold power of Formless Giant Power, and effortlessly sent the crocodile man flying.

He held back a little with that punch; otherwise, with his current strength, even a full-powered strike could leave a Black Hole Level nearly half-dead.

The Cosmic Martial Artists were in disbelief; the Sand Crocodile was Black Hole Level, yet the guy before them was only Upper Void Level. How could there be such a vast difference?

"Is there anyone else who wants to seize my mine?" Wang Xu asked coldly.

He stood alone at the entrance of the mine, his figure less than two meters tall, yet he intimidated the Cosmic Martial Artists, who were tall and resembled exotic beasts, making them unconsciously step back.

"Three-tailed Leopard, what do we do?" a Cosmic Martial Artist whispered to one who looked like a leopard with three tails.

"This guy is not simple; he should be with Fuyu. We should take advantage and deal with him while Fuyu is not around!" Three-tailed Leopard said viciously, "This guy is just a bit strong. Let’s attack together with over ten Black Hole Level ones, and kill him on the spot!"

The Cosmic Martial Artists’ eyes hardened. Indeed, they had more than ten Black Hole Levels; the opponent was just an Upper Void Level. Even if he could send the Sand Crocodile flying with one punch, could he send them all flying at once?

Immediately, the Cosmic Martial Artists no longer hesitated, each one brandishing a Void Warrior and attacking Wang Xu directly!

Ropes full of spirituality, a rusty Copper Bell, a domineering Great Saber, a Longsword with an intense edge, a Great Seal pressing down like a mountain... Instantly, attacks poured in from all directions towards Wang Xu.

The power and momentum were not inferior to Black Hole Level!

To this, Wang Xu took out the White Jade Long Saber, its blade emanating incredibly heavy momentum as he stabbed forward!

Thud!

Suddenly, before the blade of the White Jade Long Saber, an invisible Energy Barrier seemed to form, blocking all the incoming attacks.

"What?" All the Cosmic Martial Artists were stunned; could a longsword wield an Energy Barrier?

Moreover, this Energy Barrier could actually withstand all their attacks. To know, this strike was enough to rival Black Hole Level!

Shield Will.

During three months of cosmic travel, Wang Xu never stopped cultivating the Heaven and Earth Will, gaining insights through various War Soldiers, and Shield Will was one of the Heavens and Earth Wills he comprehended.

With Shield Will infused into the White Jade Long Saber, the tip of the saber could emit an invisible Energy Barrier to block all attacks.

Whoosh!

Having neutralized all the attacks, Wang Xu twisted the blade, the White Jade Long Saber touching the ground, then fiercely sweeping it horizontally!

Spear Will.

Where the spear points, it sweeps through thousands of troops!

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Almost without any ability to resist, all the Cosmic Martial Artists were swept away by this strike. Without Defensive Void Ancient Soldiers on their bodies, their bodies shook violently, as if their internal organs were shattered, and a mouthful of blood erupted uncontrollably.

"Too... too strong." Three-tailed Leopard’s face turned pale, only a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth. He was the only one among the Cosmic Martial Artists with a Defensive Void Ancient Soldier. When Wang Xu swept with the saber, the terrifying power, even through the Defensive Void Ancient Soldier, injured him.

He was lightly injured, but others suffered serious injuries, at best broken bones and inflicted pain, at worst ruptured organs, fainting on the spot.

If they weren’t Black Hole Level, this strike might have killed them all immediately.

Wang Xu twirled his saber, looking at everyone coldly. He would show no mercy to those who wanted his life.

"Go!" Three-tailed Leopard immediately shouted. This Upper Void Level was too strong, not someone they could contend with, leaving was their only option.

The Cosmic Martial Artists didn’t dare hesitate. Wang Xu’s image was already imprinted in their minds. This kind of strength akin to Black Hole Level instilled deep fear, making them determined to avoid this powerful figure if encountered in the future!

A dozen Black Hole Levels decided and left, breaking through the air. Three-tailed Leopard quickly picked up the unconscious Sand Crocodile and left.

Wang Xu did not stop them. If he used his Spiritual Consciousness to cover them, he could kill them all on the spot, but he did not do so because not far away, a figure had been silently standing there.

"They’ve all gone; are you not planning to leave yet?" Wang Xu looked into the distance, speaking coldly.

On a giant rock in the distance, the silhouette of a man in black, Fuyu, stood quietly.

"You’re strong." Fuyu had a smile on his lips, but his eyes glowed with fighting spirit, "I originally thought you were just a reckless kid, but I didn’t expect you to be so powerful. Even I couldn’t achieve what you just did."

Floating Feather knew his own strength. Facing opponents like the Sand Crocodile and others, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to win, but to take them down all at once like Wang Xu did, Floating Feather still didn’t consider himself that powerful.

"Who are you." This time it was Wang Xu’s turn to ask.

Floating Feather’s figure suddenly vanished, and in less than a breath’s time, a cloud of smoke gathered. Floating Feather’s figure emerged from it, stepping forward to Wang Xu.

"I am Floating Feather, from the Bu Xie Star Domain," Floating Feather said, placing his hand on his chest with a smile. This was a ritual of Floating Feather’s race, shown only to those they respect, and clearly, Wang Xu’s displayed strength was worthy of his respect.

"You’re an Upper Void level, so you must be going to the ’Black Water Cosmic Country’ to participate in the ’Genius Battle’, right?" Floating Feather said.

"Genius Battle?" Wang Xu was puzzled.

Floating Feather was surprised, "You don’t know about the Genius Battle held by the Cosmic Alliance?"

Wang Xu shook his head. He had just set foot in the cosmos recently and spent most of his time on the Bailan, knowing little about external information.

"Every thousand years, the Cosmic Alliance holds a Genius Battle, and all participants must be Void Level cosmic martial artists. Each Genius Battle attracts geniuses from all over the cosmos, making it the grandest gathering of talents in the universe," Floating Feather said longingly. "With so many cosmic countries and countless beings, the geniuses born are more powerful with each iteration; their strength is unimaginable."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xu was moved.

A battle that gathers all the geniuses of the entire cosmos? Doesn’t that mean all the talents will appear?

Thinking of this, a fighting spirit surged in Wang Xu’s heart. Ever since he became a Genetic Warrior, although modest on the surface, deep down, he believed himself a genius, second to none.

I... will definitely become a strong warrior!

This was a belief, a pride, an arrogance unique to geniuses. As Wang Xu became stronger, being able to sweep through opponents of the same level, this conviction became even more resolute in his heart.

Having a king in one’s heart is what makes a true king.

"Are you going to participate in the Genius Battle?" Wang Xu asked.

"Of course, I crossed several star domains, arriving at the Purple Vein Star Domain just to use its Space-Time Teleportation Platform to head to the Black Water Cosmic Country for the Genius Battle," Floating Feather said with a touch of excitement on his face. "The Genius Battle of the entire cosmos... I really want to know whether I am a genius compared to them."

Wang Xu nodded. He could guess that Floating Feather, in his homeland, was certainly a dazzling genius, sweeping through opponents of the same level without a match. Upon hearing that all the geniuses of the cosmos would converge at the Genius Battle, his fighting spirit naturally surged, and he was filled with excitement.

"This is the Genius Battle held by the Cosmic Alliance. If you successfully defeat other geniuses, wouldn’t you join the Cosmic Alliance?" Wang Xu asked.

"Of course, the Genius Battle is the only way for the Cosmic Alliance to recruit geniuses. Cosmic martial artists wanting to enter the Cosmic Alliance can only do so through the Genius Battle," Floating Feather said. "The Cosmic Alliance is one of the three major forces of the universe. Joining it is a supreme honor, and even the entire race will be protected, with even cosmic countries showing their respect!"

Wang Xu was shaken, protection for the race?!

"Joining the Cosmic Alliance can protect the race, what about joining the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion?" Wang Xu asked, with a slight tremble in his voice.

"Heaven-Reaching Pavilion?" Floating Feather revealed a peculiar smile at these words and shook his head.

Wang Xu felt a sinking feeling, does joining the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion not protect the race?

"Don’t fantasize. If the Cosmic Alliance recruits freaks among talents, Heaven-Reaching Pavilion recruits freaks among freaks!" Floating Feather said. "It isn’t just talent that can get you into that force; Heaven-Reaching Pavilion is the most mysterious among the three major forces, but it is rumored to be the strongest. How strong? I have no way of knowing. But if one really could join the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, it wouldn’t just protect a race; even an entire cosmic country would be under its protection!"

Wang Xu was stunned, then a trace of uncontainable joy appeared on his face, though he forced himself to restrain it.

"By the way, you still haven’t told me your name. Seeing how powerful you are, why not join me in going to the Black Water Cosmic Country to participate in the Genius Battle? With our strength, we can surely pass the tests and join the Cosmic Alliance!" Floating Feather suggested.

Wang Xu shook his head, "I am also interested in this Genius Battle, but there are important matters I must handle at the moment. I’m afraid I can’t go to the Black Water Cosmic Country with you."

Seeing Wang Xu’s apologetic expression, Floating Feather shrugged helplessly, "Alright then, I’ll have to go alone."

...

The two chatted for a while, and from Floating Feather’s words, Wang Xu learned that he had only arrived at this mine a few days before him. The situation was the same as what Wang Xu encountered: an abandoned mine, a land with no owner. Floating Feather immediately wielded his mechanical shovel and began to dig.

But shortly after, several Extreme Void Level cosmic martial artists arrived, claiming they discovered the mine and asked Floating Feather to leave.

Of course, Floating Feather refused to give up easily and immediately fought back, driving away the Extreme Void Level cosmic martial artists. fгeewebnovёl.com

Thus, for the past few days, a group of cosmic martial artists would come looking for Floating Feather every day.

The day before yesterday, ten Extreme Void Level cosmic martial artists came all at once, and it took Floating Feather some time to drive them away.

However, upon returning to the mine, he suddenly discovered Wang Xu.

Floating Feather found Wang Xu’s words intriguing and decided to temporarily leave the mine for him, wanting to see how Wang Xu would handle the cosmic martial artists coming to seize the mine.

But what Floating Feather didn’t expect was that Wang Xu’s strength was so formidable. Without any difficulty, he drove away over a dozen Extreme Void Level cosmic martial artists.

"We are both of the Human Race; mining alone is dull. Let’s do it together," Wang Xu suggested.

Floating Feather smiled, "Sure." (With an additional update based on 1000 recommended votes, two Chapters are now owed; both will be cleared in the coming days. Lately, the transition and setting needed some adjustments, don’t worry about it.)
