Chapter 1 Gun Devil

In Zhao, one of the seven kingdoms of the Battle Generals World, an old man in cloth, Zhu Qingshan, stared at Xu Jingming, “Gun Devil?”

“That’s me.” Xu Jingming, dressed in a black robe, grinned. “Ready to die?”

“I’ve heard of your reputation. In the past decade or so, you’ve challenged battle generals everywhere, and none have survived your hands,” the old man said solemnly.

“Aren’t you eighth-order limits in the Battle Generals World pursuing stronger training? I’m giving you the pressure of death; you should thank me,” Xu Jingming said with a bright smile.

“Rest assured, I will only kill you after a hundred moves!”

“Too bad, I will kill you within a hundred moves!” The old man’s eyes suddenly erupted with killing intent, and a terrifying mental will crushed down. This mental impact crashed into Xu Jingming, but his expression didn’t change at all.

Whoosh! Whoosh! The two moved almost simultaneously. This old man was an eighth-order limit in reality, but in terms of weapon skills alone, even Origin Lifeforms might not be able to compare.

After all, Origin Lifeforms have abandoned the honing of their skills. Xu Jingming used seventy percent of his power and speed and immediately felt the pressure brought by the old man. The feeling of spearmanship combat was truly wonderful. Xu Jingming followed his perception of the silhouette of the Void Abyss, his mental power condensed on the spear, and he naturally immersed himself in it.

When he was on Blue Star, Xu Jingming once had the title of Gun Devil, but Xu Jingming felt that he deserved the title of Gun Devil now. Once he used his spearmanship, he was in a true devilish state.

Ninety-seven moves, ninety-eight moves… The old man in cloth tried his best. The Gun Devil’s power and speed were obviously deliberately weakened by a notch, but his spearmanship was too agile and profound, and he just couldn’t break it.

When Xu Jingming reached the one hundred and first move, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and the speed of his spear was obviously a trace faster. That trace was enough to make the sword light in the old man’s hand unable to stop it, and the spear pierced through the old man’s chest.

“You just happened to kill me with one hundred and one moves?” The old man looked at Xu Jingming. “Is the gap between us that big?”

“You’re already quite good,” Xu Jingming said, pulling out his spear. The old man fell to the ground.

Xu Jingming turned and walked down the mountain path. He frowned slightly. “Ever since I dealt with Ding Shuo, my mental power has begun to condense. Now, fifteen years have passed, and my mental power is still condensing and transforming. In the process, there is no inherited spearmanship path, and I can only explore and move forward.”

Xu Jingming also felt the difficulty of not having an inheritance. Although he saw the silhouette of the Void Abyss and saw the end point, that was the end point of a third-realm high-dimensional lifeform!

From a low-dimensional lifeform to a third-realm high-dimensional lifeform, there was an unknown distance. Xu Jingming was previously excited that he saw the direction, but he really tasted the bitterness when he tried it. In these fifteen years, I have come to understand the high-dimensional path of spearmanship.

First of all, it lies in the purity of the path, so the initial mental condensation must grind away all the impurities in the mind and completely purify it!

Xu Jingming stumbled and clarified the first step of cultivation. As for the subsequent second step, third step, and even more steps, he needed to try and make mistakes again and again until he found the correct path.

Those who were contaminated by higher dimensions, some were crazy and immersed in madness. As time accumulated, they unknowingly entered the door and regained consciousness, but this was passive comprehension.

The director of the Yuan初 Research Institute hoped that Xu Jingming would explore the high-dimensional path of spearmanship while awake. The first step was to refine away all impurities and purify the mind. Xu Jingming was walking on the mountain road when he suddenly received a message. “…Miao Miao and my daughter are looking for me?” Xu Jingming looked at Li Miaomiao and Xu Lixing, who had arrived together in his personal space.

After Xu Lixing and her mother, Li Miaomiao, appeared, they sat together on the sofa opposite Xu Jingming, both looking at Xu Jingming solemnly.

“Jingming,” Li Miaomiao said, looking at Xu Jingming, “Are you hiding something from us, mother and daughter?”

“Haha, what could I be hiding?” Xu Jingming said with a smile, sitting down.

Li Miaomiao and Xu Lixing exchanged glances. “Dad, don’t you think that the way you speak now is different from before?” Xu Lixing couldn’t help but say.

“Of course, a person has to live a life openly and honestly, and be more unrestrained,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “Daughter, your dad has comprehended something in his mind, so he is even lazier to restrain himself.”

“Is that so?” Xu Lixing asked suspiciously.

“Of course,” Xu Jingming said.

Li Miaomiao asked solemnly, “Jingming, didn’t you leave the void battlefield front line? You said you wanted to come back to see us, mother and daughter, but it’s been more than ten years, and you haven’t come back once. Can you explain it? What is the reason that you don’t even have a little bit of time to return to Blue Star?”

“That’s right, Dad, you said you were going into closed-door cultivation, but closed-door cultivation always has a time limit, right?” Xu Lixing said.

Xu Jingming had a headache. “Forget it, the Void Sky Clan has already leaked this matter, and some high-level people in the human race already know about it. Eventually, you mother and daughter will know about it.”

Xu Jingming said helplessly, “I’ll tell you then.”

The matter of the experiment was unhideable. The Void Sky Clan didn’t deliberately publicize it, but they didn’t deliberately keep it secret either. After more than ten years, the news that Xu Jingming had become a new experiment had leaked out.

“What happened?” Li Miaomiao and Xu Lixing were both nervous.

“On the Void Sky Clan battlefield, although I have completely withdrawn, I was also attacked by a Cosmic Legend of the Void Sky Clan, which led to my high-dimensional contamination.” Xu Jingming shook his head. “After being contaminated by high dimensions, I am at risk of losing control, so before solving the risk of losing control, I will not return to Blue Star Civilization, nor will I go back to see you.”

“High-dimensional contamination?” The mother and daughter panicked. “Is the consequence serious? Can it be resolved?” Li Miaomiao asked.

“The Director, the Eternal Pagoda Master, and the Time-Space Dao Lord are helping me at the same time.” Xu Jingming comforted his wife and daughter. “So, I can always stay awake and slowly solve the problem. After solving the risk of losing control, I will go back.”

“Dad, when will that be?” Xu Lixing asked.

“It can’t be rushed.” Xu Jingming smiled slightly. “I have to truly grasp a trace of high-dimensional power originating from the Lord of the Void Abyss and enter the Cosmic Legend before I can say that I have truly entered the path and don’t have to worry about losing control.”

When will he become a Cosmic Legend? Can he do it within the lifespan of his wife and daughter? Xu Jingming had no confidence at all.

…

In the Yuan Star Civilization, one of the three great advanced civilizations of the human race, Emperor Lu Naxing looked at the intelligence in front of him. “What? Junior Brother Wu Ming was contaminated by high dimensions? He became another experiment of the Void Sky Clan’s Tu Tiemu?” Lu Naxing looked at the intelligence, “And the Void Sky Clan is certain that the three Supreme Realms of the human race cannot solve this high-dimensional contamination?”

Lu Naxing was shocked. After more than ten years, the news inside the Void Sky Clan gradually became known to the lower levels of the human race, and soon some powerful Origin Lifeforms also knew the news. “…Junior Brother, how are you doing now?” Senior Brother Jian also immediately contacted Xu Jingming after learning the news.

“Don’t worry, at least I can stay awake.” Xu Jingming said with a smile, not taking it seriously at all.

“If there is anything you need my help with, just say it,” Senior Brother Jian said.

“I won’t be polite with Senior Brother Jian,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. Tia Nuo, Chi Tong, and a group of friends, including Senior Brother Yi Jiu, Senior Brother Saka, and some friends from the Prison Clan battlefield who had shared life and death, as well as a group of team members he had once led on the Void Sky Clan battlefield, all contacted Xu Jingming one after another.

Everyone was also slightly relieved because Xu Jingming seemed very awake and normal.

“Ya ya ya? This amazing Xu Jingming, the number one genius of our human race, has been contaminated by high dimensions? He has become an experiment of the Void Sky Clan?” Lu Naduo, a high-ranking official of the Yuan Star Civilization, felt overjoyed when he saw the news. So, such a big shot also has today.

Lu Naduo no longer had the intention to compete with Xu Jingming, after all, the gap was too big. Xu Jingming’s extraordinary talent made his status in the human race no less than that of his brother, Lu Naxing, the emperor.

He couldn’t avoid him fast enough, but seeing Xu Jingming make a fool of himself and fall, it didn’t stop Lu Naduo from being happy!

“Hahaha, I must celebrate well today!” Lu Naduo was overjoyed, even happier than when he had just embezzled a huge sum of money.

Xu Jingming had long guessed that the matter of the experiment would eventually spread, and everything was within expectations. The key now was to complete the first step of the high-dimensional spearmanship path: mental purification!

Xu Jingming was wholeheartedly immersed in the Battle Generals World. As long as his mind was still condensing and transforming, he would naturally continue.

Time passed year by year. The Battle Generals World was, after all, a virtual world facing the entire human race in the universe. There were a massive number of eighth-order Starry Sky lifeforms. Even though many eighth-order limits didn’t go online much anymore, when they heard that there was a Gun Devil who was invincible, they couldn’t help but go online and take the initiative to fight the Gun Devil.

Eighth-order limit players didn’t care about death in the game; they were more eager to gain something!

Challenging countless battle generals did allow Xu Jingming to see a wide variety of weapon skills, allowing his spearmanship skills to continue to improve in training, and the impurities in his mind were constantly being ground away.

The universe巅峰之战 (Cosmic Peak Battle) could use eighth-order bodies and cosmic energy. In comparison, the Battle Generals World was a pure competition of skills and mind.

Xu Jingming liked the Battle Generals World very much. He used countless battle generals in the universe as sharpening stones, but conversely, Xu Jingming also became a sharpening stone for countless battle generals. He used weaker power and speed to defeat these battle generals in terms of skills, which also greatly stimulated and honed these battle generals, and many battle generals made progress because of this.

One hundred and nine years later, Xu Jingming was outside a roadside teahouse in the Battle Generals World. In front of him was the body of a fallen battle general. Xu Jingming had deep darkness in his eyes. “I have killed a total of more than 3 million battle generals and have been immersed in battle almost every day. Finally, today, I have completed my mental purification.”

His mental power completely ground away all impurities, leaving only pure darkness, as absolutely black as the robes of the Lord of the Void Abyss. Xu Jingming also understood that he had laid the foundation for the path of spearmanship.
