Xu Jingming had also experienced some humanistic illusion learning in the virtual world network.

He had also passed the life and death test of the mysterious land. In the process of studying "Eight Direction Diagram," Xu Jingming had spent a lot of effort, even watching the evolution of humans on tens of thousands of living planets for a long time, studying the influence of desire on humans. He was theoretically very rich!

However, he was still stuck at the sixth level of the "Eight Direction Diagram," the Life and Death realm.

According to some learning requirements of the virtual world network, Xu Jingming's understanding of life and death was qualified.

Even after experiencing the torment of pollution and cultivating for more than ten thousand years, Xu Jingming's understanding of life and death was still unqualified according to the requirements of the "Eight Direction Diagram."

This was because Xu Jingming had never truly felt the threat of death.

Later, he learned to become a source life in the virtual world network. Fighting in the extraterritorial battlefield was indeed dangerous, but even if he died, the three supreme realms could resurrect him.

So there was no sense of crisis at all. For the first time since his birth, Xu Jingming experienced such a strong threat and felt the coming of death!

At this moment, the faces of his wife, daughter, and parents flashed through his mind. The instinct of life, the strong desire to survive, was erupting.

"I can't die! I can't die!" Xu Jingming only felt his head buzzing and his eyes turning red. He was unprecedentedly excited, and the speed of his consciousness thinking was also unprecedented.

Driven by the desire to survive, he did not hesitate to tap his own potential.

It was over.

"Die!" The small, thin giant ape showed no mercy, slamming its fists at Xu Jingming. The two huge fists were like sledgehammers, wanting to hammer Xu Jingming into mincemeat.

Boom!

The two fists slammed into the center of the original deep pit, but Xu Jingming avoided it in an instant when he was about to be hit.

"Huh?" The small, thin giant ape looked surprised.

"After suffering a palm strike with 60% of my strength, you can still stay conscious?"

Xu Jingming stood not far away, his whole body surging with a fiery white aura, his red eyes staring at the small, thin giant ape: "Thank you, for letting me truly experience the threat of death."

No matter how rich the theory is, no matter how many times you feel it in the illusion, it can't compare to the real experience.

That sense of life and death throbbing!

The brain was about to explode! The potential hidden in the body was like a cosmic explosion! There was no need to care about the body's endurance, there was only one goal, to live, to live.

The potential of life exploded to the limit!

"Feeling life is throbbing." Xu Jingming closed his eyes, experiencing the throbbing of life. His flesh seemed like a bottomless pit, erupting with potential at this moment.

The muscles and bones all over his body were constantly becoming stronger. On the first day Xu Jingming descended into this world, he discovered that everyone's body in this world contained infinite potential.

What he had to do was to tap that potential, forcing it out with life and death. This was actually very common.

Xu Jingming's understanding of life and death was different from the Life and Death realm of the "Eight Direction Diagram."

After truly mastering the secret method of the Life and Death realm in the "Eight Direction Diagram," it obviously triggered a deeper level of potential in this body.

The Life and Death realm of the "Eight Direction Diagram" requires the desire to survive to erupt to the strongest level and to control it!

The power of the desire to survive also became part of the mind power. At this moment, Xu Jingming completely understood that the physical body carries the mind, and the mind controls the physical body.

Stronger mind power tapped into a deeper level of potential, and Xu Jingming's state was unprecedentedly good.

But the small, thin giant ape sneered: "Exploding at the critical moment of life and death? No matter how much you explode, you will die."

A kick as fast as lightning swept over. In a trance, the small, thin giant ape saw a divine bird spreading its wings, leaving behind thousands of afterimages of its feet. The kick missed.

"It actually affected my mind?" The small, thin giant ape was shocked. "Mind power has become stronger?"

Although Xu Jingming's *Xin Shen Bing Zhan Fa* (Mind Weapon Combat Method) had shaken the tall giant ape's mind before, it could not affect the small, thin giant ape.

But now that he had reached the Life and Death realm, his mind power had become even stronger! Using the Flying Crane stance already had a slight influence on the opponent.

"Useless, I only used 80% of my strength!" The small, thin giant ape became serious. It suddenly lunged forward, its two hairy hands waving over, so fast that it was astonishing, fully exerting its speed advantage.

Although Xu Jingming's movement technique had improved and had a certain degree of influence on the other party's mind, it was still difficult to avoid the continuous stream of palms.

Bang!

He was slapped again, and Xu Jingming was sent flying, directly smashing into a small mountain next to him.

The small, thin giant ape immediately flashed and followed up, wanting to add another kick, but at the same time as Xu Jingming was bombarded, he still maintained his consciousness, and avoided it with a tap of his foot.

"100% of my strength." The small, thin giant ape's eyes gleamed. "Die." He had lost his patience.

With his speed exploding at full strength, his two earth-shattering palms slapped Xu Jingming away again and again from the very beginning. Every time Xu Jingming was hit, he would fly away, spitting blood.

Gradually, even when Xu Jingming was hit, although there was still a little blood in his mouth and nose, he was already able to step on the ground and change his position.

"His body has become stronger." The small, thin giant ape could sense it. "When I slapped him with 60% of my strength at the beginning, although he looked confused, his physical injuries were not serious."

"It seems that this is the advantage of being small. Being smaller than him allows him to explode with such strong power and speed, and the toughness of his body is too high."

"And now, even a slap with 100% of my strength can't send him flying. Even if he is hit, it's only a minor injury, and it will be completely healed in the time it takes to breathe." The small, thin giant ape knew it himself.

The more powerful individuals in this world, the higher their recovery power.

Therefore, to kill the opponent, one must completely destroy the opponent in one breath, without giving the opponent a chance to breathe.

"At the beginning, he was at level 52, and now he is already at level 53, and he can still influence my mind, making my strength weaker." The small, thin giant ape faintly felt uneasy.

Although Xu Jingming was slapped again and again, he could feel that in the process of being beaten, while tapping his body's potential, the toughness of his body was increasing the fastest, becoming more and more tough.

He was like a piece of refined steel! The giant ape's palm was like a big iron hammer, hammering him again and again, making him even more tough.

Finally, the explosion of potential slowed down, and the improvement of the body also slowed down.

"Are you having a good time slapping me?" Xu Jingming suddenly said.

The small, thin giant ape, who was continuing to attack, was stunned.

"Next, it's my turn." As soon as Xu Jingming finished speaking, he made his move.

At this moment, the small, thin giant ape seemed to see a fierce tiger exuding an extremely fierce aura, and there was even a tiger roar. It was the third move of the *Xin Shen Bing Zhan Fa*, the Raging Tiger Tears the Sky. Xu Jingming had only perfectly mastered the first two moves, and the power of the subsequent moves was not enough. But after the mind power transformed and reached the Life and Death realm, Xu Jingming's avatar far away in the outside world had already deduced the Raging Tiger Tears the Sky hundreds of times, and it was already extremely mature.

Now, with his mind power sufficient, he could perfectly execute this move. The small, thin giant ape vaguely heard a tiger roar.

"Not good, my mind has been affected." Relying entirely on instinct, the small, thin giant ape frantically waved its arms, and a pair of huge palms suddenly slapped out hundreds of times, covering every direction.

But Xu Jingming flickered around the small, thin giant ape, and a claw as fast as lightning landed on the small, thin giant ape.

The small, thin giant ape instinctively lowered its head, and a claw scratched across the small, thin giant ape's forehead. Xu Jingming's five fingers were extremely sharp, tearing through the skin and flesh with five bloody wounds, leaving claw marks on the skull.

The small, thin giant ape then waved hundreds of palms, forcing Xu Jingming to retreat.

The small, thin giant ape also broke free from the influence and stared at Xu Jingming. The injuries on his forehead completely healed in the time it took to breathe.

"I didn't expect that I couldn't even defeat a human." The small, thin giant ape looked at Xu Jingming. "What's your name?"

"Ming!" Xu Jingming also looked at the other party.

"My name is Jia Luo." The small, thin giant ape said, "You have such strength after descending among the human race for more than a hundred years. I believe that you will definitely stand out in the future Ten Thousand Race Arena."

"Among the powerful races, the human race is fast and small, not strong in strength, but fast in speed." The giant ape said softly, "But when it comes to real fighting, the toughness of our bodies is far inferior to you small types."

"I can hit you a hundred times, and your body is tough enough to withstand it, but you can kill me with just a few hits."

"Perhaps being fast is for us to escape." The small, thin giant ape mocked himself, "The longer it drags on, the more advantageous the small types are."

"In the Ten Thousand Race Arena, we powerful races still have a chance in the early stages. In the middle and late stages, I'm afraid it will be your weak races who dominate." After saying that, the small, thin giant ape turned around and left.

Xu Jingming did not chase after him. After all, he was not sure that he could defeat his opponent now. Even if he could beat him, he couldn't catch up if the other party was determined to escape.

The black-haired giant apes in the distance were still in a daze.

"Remember this human powerhouse, Ming." The small, thin giant ape said, "If you sense his aura in the future, run away quickly."

The black-haired giant ape nodded and sighed, "I can't even beat him now. What hope do we weak races have in the future? I'm ranked outside the top ten in the giant ape race. I have no hope in the Ten Thousand Race Arena."

"This life in the Ten Thousand Worlds may be the last days of my life."

"As long as you live, there is hope." As the small, thin giant ape said this, a large aircraft slowly landed above the heads of the two.

The giant apes entered the aircraft, and soon flew away.

Xu Jingming watched the large aircraft fly away, and then glanced at the spherical monitors in the sky.

"I'm only at level 53 now. Relying on mental influence, I can only be evenly matched with him." Xu Jingming thought.

"Those half-step third realm Heart Realm experts, they won't be affected by mental influence. And in terms of size, there are large ones like the Giant God race and the Dragon race, and small ones like the Yi race and the Bee race."

"So I have no advantage in terms of race. I must seize the time to improve myself." Xu Jingming also had a sense of urgency. After all, only the first place in the Ten Thousand Race Arena could leave. No matter the early stage, middle stage, or late stage, taking first place was very difficult.

Hu!

Xu Jingming quietly left, and the video of this battle gradually spread over time, and like many other battle videos, it was watched collectively by the descended high-dimensional lifeforms.
