“Escaped?”

The hundred-odd powerhouses who witnessed this scene were also somewhat dumbfounded. The extraordinary treasure they had desperately craved, the 'Miniature Abyss,' had been snatched away just like that. Moreover, Xu Jingming had completely escaped, making it impossible to pursue him.

“Who is he?”

These hundred-odd powerhouses all had extraordinary backgrounds. Some had even participated in the 'Cosmic Arena' event. Yet, today, a stranger had taken the fruit right before their eyes, naturally making them quite unwilling. At this moment, what they wanted to know most was information about this stranger.

“Don’t recognize him.”

“Not from our territory.”

“Never seen him before.”

These powerhouses all shook their heads.

The half-step third realm Invincibles and Abyss Monarchs who participated in this exploration of the Ultimate Land were all sent here by the 35 third realm beings! They belonged to the subordinates of the 35 third realm beings. Powerhouses from different territories naturally did not recognize each other.

The struggle for the 'Miniature Abyss' involved a total of eleven factions. Xu Jingming was the only one from Yu Fire City’s side, and no one present recognized him.

“Looks like a powerhouse from an unfamiliar territory. To think... that he could shuttle through space even under the rule suppression of the Ultimate Land.”

“His achievements in the temporal aspect are simply unbelievable.”

“Having explored the Ultimate Land for so long, he is the only one I have seen who can shuttle through space.”

“With such an ability, who can compete with him for treasures?”

“Such a powerhouse... I believe it won’t be long before we know his name.”

These powerhouses were all amazed by Xu Jingming's ability to 'shuttle through space.' Being inferior to Xu Jingming in strength, they had nothing to say. After all, being able to seize the treasure 'Miniature Abyss' right before their eyes, and even escape safely, this ability... also made many powerhouses admire him.

“Let’s go.”

“The Ultimate Land shouldn’t just have these treasures; there should be even greater opportunities.” These hundred-odd powerhouses quickly dispersed, each shouldering the entrustment of a third realm being.

******

Xu Jingming advanced quietly in the depths of the mountains, a smile on his face.

“When my strength was weak, I was cautious, avoiding any major commotion. Only when my strength is strong do I have the qualifications to fight for true treasures.” Xu Jingming had already arranged for an avatar to enter his internal universe.

Inside the internal universe.

The extraordinary treasure 'Miniature Abyss' floated there, and one of Xu Jingming's avatars was present, sitting cross-legged on the vast earth, observing this treasure.

“Even the *Xu Yuan* (Void Abyss) inheritance only imitates a small part of the true abyss.” Xu Jingming observed, “Even in terms of information, the *Xu Yuan* inheritance’s understanding of the abyss is not as good as this one treasure.”

Xu Jingming also understood that this treasure was likely created by an ultimate existence.

Third realm beings found it difficult to understand the true appearance of the abyss.

Ultimate existences, however, could easily understand it and even leave behind extraordinary treasures like the 'Miniature Abyss.'

“Too beautiful.” Xu Jingming reached out and touched it, growing more amazed as he looked at it.

He cultivated two major schools: Void Abyss Illusions and Mind Weapons! He was extremely talented in the Void Abyss aspect and had accumulated a great deal.

“My past understanding was too shallow; the true abyss has too many levels.” As Xu Jingming watched, countless branches of the abyss wriggled and changed like living things. As they wriggled, abyss spaces were naturally born, and abyss spaces were also destroyed. “Time and space have limited my vision.”

“I can sense... that this Miniature Abyss is still just the tip of the iceberg. In other timelines, it still has other appearances.”

After all, Xu Jingming had condensed a divine rune. He could break through the barriers of the timeline and vaguely perceive that in the 'unknowable' timelines, the true Miniature Abyss was many times more complex and vast.

Xu Jingming didn’t know that even third realm existences only controlled the endless territories of their timelines.

As for countless other timelines? The cost for third realm existences to cross timelines was very high. To peer into countless other timelines? With the strength of a third realm existence, they could only peek at a few scenes.

Xu Jingming could now confirm the existence of other timelines, but he could not peek at any images.

“My strength is weak, so it appears to me in this way.” Xu Jingming looked at this treasure, amazed. “If I become a third realm existence, its appearance before my eyes would probably be much more shocking.”

“My past Void Abyss Illusions were too crude compared to it.”

The moment he saw it, his understanding changed.

Many past confusions about the *Xu Yuan* inheritance were resolved, and his past accumulation underwent a qualitative change at this moment.

“This is the true Void Abyss.” With a thought, Xu Jingming began to use the illusion treasure 'Void Abyss' as a carrier to reconstruct the illusory abyss in his heart! This construction lasted for more than three days.

At the moment of successful construction, Xu Jingming felt a sense of satisfaction.

“In the Void Abyss Illusions lineage, I can feel that I have reached the half-step third realm Invincible level.” After all, Xu Jingming had a complete *Xu Yuan* inheritance, and he had a clear understanding of his accumulated level.

“Unfortunately…”

“The distance between half-step third realm Invincible and the third realm is too far. I still need a very long time to accumulate before I can hope to break through to the third realm in the Void Abyss lineage,” Xu Jingming thought.

Xu Jingming was still very satisfied in his heart.

His talent in the Illusion lineage was obviously extremely high, not at all inferior to Mind Weapons! Earlier, he had reached a quite strong level in illusions just by relying on ordinary inheritances like the *Three Lines of the Mind World*.

Later, after obtaining the *Xu Yuan* inheritance, he made even greater progress.

“In the Mind Weapon lineage, I had the *Mind God Weapon* early on, and later I had the complete third realm inheritance *Nine Strategies of Annihilation*, and even that ultimate spear technique on the silver paper. It was only a few days ago, under the pressure of Monarch Chan Ming, that I comprehended the fifth style of Golden Spears, 'Beacon Fire,' which can be called a half-step third realm invincible Mind Spear technique.”

“If the improvement in the Mind Weapon lineage has been stumbling along, then the illusion aspect has broken through naturally. The external resources are much inferior, but today it has also reached the half-step third realm Invincible level.” Xu Jingming vaguely felt…

Perhaps his talent in the illusion lineage was even above Mind Weapons?

It was just that the external resources of the Mind Weapon lineage were too good. The mysterious characters in the Ultimate Land were also from the same source as the spear technique on the silver paper! This made his spear path smoother.

…

As time passed, the treasures in the mountain range area were becoming fewer and fewer. One day, a mountain range exploded, revealing an original gold mine! Naturally, it attracted some powerhouses to snatch it.

“Whoosh.”

Xu Jingming, however, broke through the obstruction of space-time and appeared near the original gold mine, directly taking the entire original gold mine away.

“It’s Wu Ming!”

“This Wu Ming is here to snatch treasures again!”

“He can shuttle through space even in the Ultimate Land; there’s no way to stop him.” These powerhouses watched as Xu Jingming completely disappeared from their field of vision in just two steps, and they were all helpless.

Some powerhouses asked, “You said Wu Ming; what is the origin of this Wu Ming?”

“Wu Ming is a half-step third realm Invincible from Yu Fire City, with extremely high attainments in the temporal aspect. He can even shuttle through space in the Ultimate Land. I heard that several precious treasures have been taken by him.”

“Yes, last time I watched helplessly as the treasure 'Miniature Abyss' was taken away by him.”

“I also saw a winged treasure whose light covered the sky being taken away by him.”

These powerhouses were quite unwilling, but there was nothing they could do.

“He’s taken so many treasures as a lone traveler; has he never thought about joining forces to assassinate him?”

“If a group of powerhouses joins forces, he will only escape at the fastest speed. But if three or five powerhouses take action... they can’t beat him.”

“Three or five joining forces can’t beat him? How is that possible? The strength of half-step third realm Invincibles should not be too different!”

“This Wu Ming is an exception. I don’t know if he obtained some powerful treasure, or if he mastered some special power from the mysterious characters. In a one-on-one fight, he can kill a half-step third realm Invincible in two or three moves. Three or five joining forces can’t beat him indeed.”

These powerhouses were talking among themselves. They came from different territories, each with a prestigious reputation. But now, in the Ultimate Land, they had encountered an even stronger existence.

…

Xu Jingming stood on the peak of a mountain, looking out at the vast mountains, somewhat puzzled. “It’s been half a year since I came to the Ultimate Land. In the mountain range area, I haven’t discovered a single treasure in the last month.”

“The treasures in the mountain range area have probably been plundered,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “In any case, my harvest this time has been great.”

After his strength broke through by condensing a divine rune, Xu Jingming was determined to fight for treasures.

Opportunities, opportunities, must be fought for!

Like the 'Miniature Abyss,' which obviously helped to comprehend the Void Abyss lineage. The more similar opportunities he fought for, the greater his hope of becoming a third realm existence in the future!

“During this period of time, I have taken action to compete many times, which has also aroused the animosity of many powerhouses. These powerhouses have even joined forces to assassinate me.” Xu Jingming smiled slightly. Three or five powerhouses coming to assassinate him was like sending treasures!

Competing, fighting, escaping... this period of time has been very exciting, and the number of accumulated treasures is also very large.

“Recently, I have obtained a total of 29 treasures, some of high value and some of low value, 16 third realm weapons, and also obtained more than 120,000 characters.” Xu Jingming was very satisfied. “My harvest is very large, but now the key is... how to get out alive!”

Xu Jingming was indeed somewhat puzzled.

In the past half year, whether it was the avatar in the mountain range area or the avatar in the outer area, Xu Jingming had been searching for a way out.

Even in Yu Fire City, Xu Jingming was now well-known and had exchanged ideas with many half-step third realm Invincibles to find a way out.

“To this day, I haven’t heard of anyone being able to come out of the Ultimate Land alive,” Xu Jingming shook his head gently. “If I can’t get out, it means that these treasures can’t be taken out at all. Even the third realm weapons I carry must be left here!”

Even if he couldn’t take the treasures out, Xu Jingming felt that his harvest was very great! After all, both lineages had reached the half-step third realm Invincible level, and he had even condensed a divine rune.

“Buzz, buzz, buzz~~~”

Xu Jingming’s expression changed slightly. He felt the mountain beneath his feet trembling slightly.

“No, the entire mountain range area is trembling.” Xu Jingming looked into the distance and could clearly see the continuous mountain range trembling. In the distant mountains, cracks began to appear, and a terrifying aura emanated from the cracks.

Sensing this aura, Xu Jingming couldn’t help but tremble and his legs went weak. He couldn’t control himself from kneeling down.

At this moment, all living beings within the Ultimate Land sensed the invisible terrifying aura and couldn’t help but kneel down. Because that was the supreme aura, representing the aura of an ultimate existence.

“What is that?” Xu Jingming looked.

Endless, majestic, and continuous palace complexes slowly emerged from the depths of the cracked mountains.

The aura emanating from the palace complexes made Xu Jingming and other half-step third realm existences look up in awe.

At this moment, outside the Ultimate Land, 35 towering existences peered into the current scene through the karma of these half-step third realm existences. Their expressions became much more solemn, and their hearts were even more burning with heat.

“The opportunity left behind by an ultimate existence?” These third realm existences also yearned for it. They already felt very lucky that an ultimate existence could stay in their timeline and leave behind an opportunity.

Because the vast majority of third realm existences never had the opportunity to come into contact with an ultimate existence in their lifetime.
