Chapter 1 Ji Water Star

Ji Water Star, night fell.

Xu Jingming sat on the terrace of his residence, looking at the two dim satellites in the night sky. With a sweep of his gaze, he could see the lives of the billions of creatures on every part of the planet. "In this world, there are too many things one is powerless to do." Xu Jingming was not in a good mood.

During the first wave of the Prison race's raids in the daytime, although he had killed three Prison race Originlife beings, all the humans on the entire life planet were wiped out.

Similar catastrophes occurred frequently in the border areas.

The cosmic human race had also angrily struck into the Prison race's territory to attack and retaliate. But…

The Prison race simply didn't care about the lives of beings below the Originlife level. Even without the human attacks, the Prison race internally fought crazily; they constantly killed each other from birth. The amount of killing from the human attacks was far less than the Prison race's internal slaughter. When too many died internally, another batch of eggs would be cultivated.

As long as the Prison race's core Originlife beings and higher Supreme existences lived, the entire race's foundation would remain unshaken, and it couldn't be touched at all.

"The Prison race doesn't care about the bottom layers. In fact, even within the human race, there are many Originlife beings who don't pay much attention to planetary life." Xu Jingming felt a chill in his heart, a sorrow for the countless weak. This sorrow was powerless; he couldn't change it.

On the border with the Prison race, and on the border with the Void God race, a large number of human planets were implicated. When would this 'fate' end?

"Perhaps, humanity needs a more powerful Supreme existence! Or even the most powerful Supreme existence in the entire cosmos, to change all of this." Xu Jingming looked at the dark night sky, thinking, "A person's life must have some pursuit in the end." "Perhaps my goals can be more ambitious."

A powerful desire was growing in Xu Jingming's heart, but he simply buried it deep inside, silently accumulating strength. "Hmm?"

Xu Jingming saw in a corner not far from the street outside his house, a teenager was being attacked by two assassins. "Is that Qiu Qingke, the most talented teenager from the Four Seasons Sword Hall?" Xu Jingming knew him; he had encountered this teenager on his first day of hiding on Ji Water Star. With his observational skills, he had naturally discovered the true genius in the Four Seasons Sword Hall.

"Hmm, yesterday he was still at the fourth-order limit, and today he broke through to the fifth-order." "It's a pity, he still can't beat technology." Xu Jingming watched.

The two assassins came prepared. They shot him from a distance, then quickly grabbed him at close range. In the dark corner of the street.

Qiu Qingke couldn't move after being shot. The two assassins approached, and electronic handcuffs and shackles quickly bound him. "I've completed the contract. I've fought twelve matches for the boss. I'm a free man now." Qiu Qingke stared at the two assassins. He recognized them as people from the boss's side. "You actually believed the contract?" One of the cold-faced assassins laughed.

"The contract is just a piece of waste paper. Let's go; the boss has other arrangements for you." Another assassin, escorting Qiu Qingke, said, "Don't worry, the boss is very fond of money now that you broke through to the fifth-order just before the fight. He'll make you completely one of us!" Despair filled Qiu Qingke's eyes.

Ever since he had shown his talent, he had been controlled by dark forces and still couldn't break free. Suddenly—

A man walked over from not far down the street, heading straight for the dark corner. "Hmm?" The two assassins vaguely felt something was wrong, but suddenly, they silently collapsed. Qiu Qingke was stunned. He recognized the newcomer as the strange uncle who often ate at the restaurant next door. "Uncle." Qiu Qingke was somewhat dazed.

"Young man, how did you end up in this state?" The man reached out, and the electronic handcuffs and shackles snapped open. "Thank you, uncle. These two are members of the Chaluo Group. The Chaluo Group is a large criminal organization. You should leave quickly." Qiu Qingke said nervously.

"Chaluo Group?" Xu Jingming feigned surprise. "How did a young man like you offend such a powerful criminal organization?" "I can't help it. I was caught and forced to fight in underground matches. What can I do?" Qiu Qingke said helplessly, "The Chaluo Group is watching me. I don't even know where to hide now. I even broke through to the fifth-order today. Fifth-order is the level that the government focuses on cultivating, and they still dare to arrest me."

"They are very bold." Xu Jingming nodded. "It's not safe here. Come, I'll take you to a safe place." Qiu Qingke trusted his savior.

Moreover, he couldn't break free from the electronic shackles even after reaching the fifth-order. This uncle broke the handcuffs and shackles with a wave of his hand; he must have become a Starlife being long ago. Soon, Xu Jingming brought Qiu Qingke to his residence. "A safe place?" Qiu Qingke was stunned. "Just here?"

"Don't worry, it's very safe here." Xu Jingming poured him a glass of juice and handed it to him. "You said you reached the fifth-order. You're very talented to become a fifth-order at such a young age."

"What's the use of having talent? Some criminal groups on Ji Water Star are very rampant and have all sorts of protectors behind them." Qiu Qingke shook his head helplessly. "I don't even know what to do tomorrow?" "It's so chaotic?" Xu Jingming nodded.

"It's normal. I heard that Ji Water Star will have a catastrophe about every ten thousand years. When the catastrophe comes, the entire planet will be wiped out," Qiu Qingke said. "Those Starlife beings generally have a lifespan of three thousand years, so they have a certain probability of encountering a great catastrophe. Maybe they know they might encounter a catastrophe in the future, so they're even more greedy and crazy." Xu Jingming nodded. "Aren't you afraid of the catastrophe?"

"We planetary lifeforms have short lifespans. A catastrophe only happens about once every ten thousand years. If we encounter it, we'll just consider ourselves unlucky," Qiu Qingke didn't care. "In this world, you can encounter members of criminal organizations just by walking on the street. The probability of being killed by them is much higher than encountering a catastrophe." Xu Jingming was slightly taken aback. This was the thinking of ordinary people.

"Oh, I've become a fifth-order," Qiu Qingke suddenly said, stunned. "I'll soon become a Starlife being." "Then are you still afraid of the catastrophe coming?" Xu Jingming asked.

"What's the use of being afraid? I heard you can't escape it. Every part of the Ansu Star Alliance can encounter a catastrophe. It's even useless to escape to other star alliances," Qiu Qingke said. Xu Jingming was well aware.

In fact, a total of three cosmic domains, including the Tianmang Cosmic Domain, were the border area between the Prison race and the human race. Star lifeforms could immigrate, but it was generally difficult to leave a star alliance! As for wanting to leave a cosmic domain? Crossing cosmic domains… The cost of the journey was not something a normal Starlife being could afford.

"If you can't escape it, then just accept your fate. When fate comes, accept it calmly." Qiu Qingke grinned. "It's like my parents, who directly left me to travel the cosmos. I have to accept it too." "Keep it up; maybe fate will favor those who don't give up." Xu Jingming looked at him.

"Favor?" Qiu Qingke said helplessly, "What I'm most worried about now is the Chaluo Group. The Chaluo Group is too deeply rooted in Ji Water Star. Sigh."

"Just pick a room on the second floor and get some sleep," Xu Jingming said with a smile, "When you wake up, everything will be better."

"Thank you, uncle. I really don't dare to go home now." Qiu Qingke was also very tired. He had just experienced a fierce fight and broke through to the fifth-order. He thought he had completed the contract and could escape the quagmire, but he was attacked by assassins and saved by this uncle. He watched the teenager go downstairs to rest.

Xu Jingming murmured, "Many people treat the catastrophe as fate. If they encounter it, it's just bad luck." "When will we be able to defy fate?" Xu Jingming thought.

"Little Nine, check the Ji Water Star's planetary system and learn about the Chaluo Group and the major criminal organizations." Xu Jingming instructed.

"It has been checked and the files of all 3 billion people on Ji Water Star have been successfully established," Little Nine immediately responded. "Large criminal organizations and key members have been recorded separately. Master can view them at any time." As an Originlife being, Xu Jingming could view the files with a thought in the virtual world network.

"Including the leader of the Chaluo Group, there are 79 Starlife beings who can be sentenced to death," Xu Jingming said softly. "Little Nine, synchronize the crime records with the Primordial Research Institute." "Yes," Little Nine obeyed.

Immediately afterward, Xu Jingming's thought enveloped the entire Ji Water Star, locking onto 79 Starlife beings. The 79 Starlife beings silently disintegrated and vanished.

The evidence of the crimes wasn't collected by Xu Jingming, but by the No. 9 Primordial Battle Suit. The Primordial Battle Suit was connected to the headquarters of the Primordial Research Institute! Its data had legal credibility.

The Primordial Battle Suit, after connecting to the Primordial Research Institute, sentenced them to death according to the Cosmic Human Alliance's laws! Xu Jingming, as the owner of the Primordial Battle Suit, had the right to execute them.

The leader of the Chaluo Group and many key members, as well as 79 Starlife beings with deep sins among the hundreds of Starlife beings on Ji Water Star, all disappeared that night.

Xu Jingming didn't even flinch after killing 79 people. What he was worried about was the Prison race's second wave of raids. On a small cosmic spaceship, the Prison race squad leader and his female companion were looking at the distant prosperous planet. "Captain, the time for the second operation is approaching," the female companion reminded.

"Be quick when we act later," the Prison race squad leader instructed, "Wipe out the humans first, then plunder the planet's valuable resources as quickly as possible. We must retreat within 30 seconds. All three members of Culuo's team died… Maybe it was bad luck, or maybe the Ansu Star Alliance has some powerful Originlife beings hidden." The female companion nodded. "Understood."

"Countdown, 30, 29, 28…" The female companion began the countdown. At this time, the other Prison race Originlife beings in their squad were also preparing.

The entire squad, although scattered, was irregularly plundering some life planets in the Ansu Star Alliance. But the timing was unified.

"10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" The female companion and the Prison race squad leader had already left the spaceship, quietly.

Silently collecting the spaceship. Both of them concealed all their aura fluctuations. When they weren't taking action, they had to maintain the most perfect concealment. "Take action."

The Prison race squad leader and his female companion instantly entered the atmosphere of that prosperous administrative star. This administrative star was very prosperous, with over a hundred billion people living here. The moment the two Prison race Originlife beings descended, "Hmm?"

A cold-faced man who was painting on the street suddenly looked up. There were also many infatuated women around, waiting in line for this cold and handsome guy to help them with their paintings.

The moment the cold-faced man looked up was the moment the Prison race squad leader and his female companion teleported into existence. "Two Prison race members, one tenth-order, one ninth-order." The cold-faced man whispered softly. The whispering sound…

Resonated in the ears of the Prison race squad leader and his female companion.

"Not good." The Prison race squad leader's expression changed drastically. He looked around in horror. The surrounding space was layered and stacked, as if hundreds of administrative stars were superimposed on top of each other, eerily like a maze. "Mirror Domain! Jian of the human race?" The Prison race squad leader guessed who the human powerhouse was when he saw this terrifying Mirror Domain.

The person with the highest contemporary achievement in the 'Mirror Domain' among the cosmic human race, a terrifying existence ranked in the top twenty of the Primordial Research Institute, codenamed Jian. A cold-faced man emerged from the layers of stacked space, looking down at the Prison race squad leader and his female companion. "I actually encountered Jian." The Prison race squad leader laughed, "It's also my honor to die in Jian's hands." At this moment, he was also sending out a 'crisis' signal, but the signal couldn't be transmitted at all. Once Mr. Jian's Mirror Domain was deployed, it was like an independently existing world. There was no escape. At least for him, the squad leader, although he was also a tenth-order powerhouse, there was a difference between tenth-order and tenth-order. "Did you kill the other three members of my team?" The Prison race squad leader asked.

"There are many human experts!" Mr. Jian coldly looked at the two Prison race Originlife beings. Under his gaze, the layers of stacked space continuously collapsed and contracted. The Prison race squad leader and his female companion inside struggled desperately, roaring and waving their weapons. That power was enough to shatter stars, but under the force of the layers of stacked space, not even a single layer of space could be shattered.

The entire Mirror Domain space collapsed, collapsing faster and faster, until it completely collapsed into a point. At the last moment, the power of the space collapse had become extremely heavy, crushing them both. The cosmic human race mainly defended against the Void God race. There weren't many against the Prison race, only about 5,000 tenth-order Originlife beings and about 1 million experienced ninth-order Originlife beings were dispatched, along with a large number of technological weapons.

Dealing with the Prison race only mobilized about one-tenth of the human race's Originlife combat power, much less than dealing with the Void God race.

The human race's truly top combat power, including cosmic legends, was mostly dealing with the Void God race.

"The Ansu Star Alliance, including me, has 21 tenth-order Originlife beings and 65 ninth-order Originlife teams scattered everywhere to guard. I heard there is also a mysterious guardian who provides extremely fast support." Mr. Jian was the commander of the Ansu Star Alliance's defenses. But he didn't know the true identity of the mysterious guardian either.

The Ansu Star Alliance had many defensive forces, each with its own area of responsibility, in order to pursue and kill as quickly as possible. But long-distance travel had errors, and spaceships were ultimately not as fast as 'teleportation', so the efficiency was still somewhat low. Xu Jingming, who was extremely fast at long-distance travel, was dispatched to some very remote areas of attack because others were too slow to get there. "There's a mission."

At the same time that Mr. Jian trapped the Prison race squad leader and his female companion with the Mirror Domain, Xu Jingming, who was reading a book in his study, also received a mission order. Instantly, he disappeared. In less than ten seconds, he had already arrived at his destination 370 million light-years away.
