Chapter 801 - 801 Arrival



801 Arrival

I may be able to bestow powerful bodies upon them, but I can’t alter their minds and consciousness or their understanding. Xu Jingming found himself a little vexed. If I were to forcefully tamper with their memories and character… they would cease to be themselves.

To tamper with one’s mind and thoughts was a forbidden act, a taboo.

Moreover… Even if he were to manipulate their thoughts and memories, enhancing their minds and wills proved to be an arduous task.

Molding the strength of one’s mind and will was not a matter of altering memories alone.

The significance of the mind and will is profound. Just like the powerhouses who stand at the pinnacle of the Eternal realm; they can ascend to become Abyss Overlords with the aid of a potent body granted by the Abyss. Only by carrying out a sacrifice can a half-step third-realm powerhouses have a chance at becoming an Abyss Sovereign.

A feeble mind and will cannot endure the might of a robust body.

The body and mind were inextricably intertwined, each influencing the other. Should one possess a feeble mind and will, they would struggle to harness the might of a formidable physique.

My family’s minds and wills are too feeble. In the face of endless time, they will inevitably decay and distort, Xu Jingming contemplated. Only when their minds and wills reach the third realm can they truly achieve eternity, untouched by decay or distortion.

Having examined the timeline, Xu Jingming confirmed this realization.

High-dimensional Eternal beings could possess everlasting bodies, yet their minds would still succumb to decay. Even the minds of half-step third-realm powerhouses would gradually warp over time. It was precisely because of this that their lifespans were typically limited.

Once a mind became corrupt and distorted to a certain extent, madness would ensue. Seeking death would be the natural course of action.

Those who managed to extend their lives among the ranks of half-step third-realm powerhouses possessed extraordinary minds. For example, invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses from the Heart Realm lineage or other lineages with exceptional psychic abilities.

The strength of one’s mind and will determines their capacity to withstand the relentless march of time. The invincible half-step third-realm powerhouses from the Heart Realm lineage, despite enduring over 100 Abyssal Eras, maintain a lucid mind. I must find a way to fortify my family’s minds and wills, Xu Jingming resolved.

As his towering third-realm true body contemplated, only Liu Mangxing, Monhado Xiong E, Thearch Dragon Island Lord, Ancient Tree World Lord, North River Boat Master, the dean, Tower Master, Island Lord, and a select few other living beings could witness his true form. They dared not disturb Xu Jingming in his musings.

Suddenly—

A consciousness traversed vast expanses of spacetime.

“Wu Ming.” A voice sounded.

Xu Jingming raised his gaze and beheld a figure bathed in a radiant tapestry of colors, standing amidst a splendid garden. “Overlord Sea Rain.”

“Wu Ming, you must be aware of the grudge I hold against the resurrected Liu Mangxing,” Overlord Sea Rain declared, her gaze fixed upon Xu Jingming. She was the third-realm entity responsible for the annihilation of Liu Mangxing’s family in the past.

“Overlord Sea Rain, you should also know that his offspring, Liu Yufeng, has played an instrumental role in my evolutionary journey,” Xu Jingming replied. “I am merely repaying the debt I owe.”

Indeed, this child, Liu Yufeng, had greatly aided Xu Jingming’s advancement. Without the legacy of the Eight Directions Map and the other treasures bestowed upon him, Xu Jingming’s path would have undoubtedly been far more treacherous.

From a distance, both parties regarded each other, their thoughts silently conveyed.

“Hmph,” Overlord Sea Rain expressed her dissatisfaction.

Yet, it was an impossibility for third-realm beings to directly slay one another! Overlord Sea Rain had no recourse against Xu Jingming’s resolute determination to safeguard the Liu family.

“Henceforth, their family is forbidden from venturing beyond your domain,” Overlord Sea Rain proclaimed from afar. “Should they dare to step outside, the consequences shall not be on my hands.”

Xu Jingming offered a slight nod. “Very well, they shall remain within.”

Within his dominion, he established his own set of regulations to ensure their protection. He possessed the means to prevent any clandestine assault orchestrated by Overlord Sea Rain.

However, once they departed from his haven and Overlord Sea Rain launched an attack, it would be too late for Xu Jingming to intervene. Given that all parties involved possessed third-realm capabilities, they would be defenseless against each other once outside their respective territories.

Among the multitude of resurrected individuals, Liu Mangxing and his family were regarded as exceptionally formidable. Their elation knew no bounds.

“This time, you saved both me and your mother,” Liu Mangxing expressed, his gaze fixed upon their child.

Liu Yufeng, filled with jubilation and smugness, basked in the glory.

“Due to your family’s grudge with the third-realm entity, Overlord Sea Rain, you mustn’t venture beyond my domain. Once you do, I shall be unable to offer you protection,” Xu Jingming’s voice resounded within their minds.

“We understand.”

Once again, the Liu Mangxing family offered their respectful bows, grateful for the safeguarding from the third-realm entity.

Not far from them, the towering figure of Monhado Xiong E, donned in black fur, glanced at Sanam, one of the 3,000 Emissaries standing beside him.

“Master, Master!” Sanam’s excitement was palpable, tears streaming down his face. He regarded Monhado Xiong E with fervor.

“I cannot believe it—I am truly alive,” Monhado Xiong E murmured, his disbelief evident as he stared at Sanam. “Of the 3,000 Emissaries from the past, only you and I have been revived. It appears that my resurrection is somehow intertwined with yours.”

Sanam said with utmost respect, “A magnificent third-realm entity granted us revival. This extraordinary being, known as Wu Ming, was once a low-dimensional lifeform whom I encountered. I entrusted him with all my treasures and your legacy.”

Realization dawned upon Monhado Xiong E. Immediately, the black-furred monster kneeled and offered a profound bow to the towering true form of the third-realm entity. “Great Overlord Wu Ming, I express my deepest gratitude for bestowing upon me the gift of revival.”

“Thank Sanam.” Xu Jingming’s voice reverberated within his mind.

The spoils obtained from the auxiliary universe in the past only offered modest assistance to Xu Jingming as a low-dimensional lifeform. Had he obtained them as a high-dimensional being, the acquisition of those treasures would have held little significance.

For instance, North River Boat Master had gifted Xu Jingming a third-realm treasure, the 8,000 Galaxies, during his time in the Eternal realm, greatly fortifying Myriad Star Island. Xu Jingming held this contribution in high regard. However, by the time Xu Jingming ascended to dominion over the Ultimate Land, third-realm weapons paled in comparison and held little mentionable value.

Xu Jingming gathered with Grandpa Xu, Xu Hong and his wife, Li Chen’an and his wife, Li Miaomiao, his daughter, Xu Lixing, Meng Tian, Xu Fangjin and his wife, and Xu Biyun.

“Since you were once low-dimensional beings, the strength of your minds and consciousness is severely limited,” Xu Jingming explained. “Therefore, I can only elevate you to the weakest state of high-dimensional lifeforms in the Firstborn realm.”

“You want us to become Firstborn realm high-dimensional lifeforms?” Xu Hong exclaimed, taken aback. “Are we capable of advancing from being low-dimensional beings?”

“It’s not exactly a breakthrough,” Xu Jingming clarified. “It’s more akin to a form of reincarnation. I intend for you to possess the bodies of natural high-dimensional lifeforms. Furthermore, these creatures are exceptionally feeble at birth.”

“Being weak will alleviate the strain on your minds and consciousness. A newborn mind and consciousness can withstand the body of a newborn high-dimensional lifeform, making it a natural fit for you,” Xu Jingming elaborated.

As a third-realm entity, he had the power to grant his family Eternal lifeform bodies, or even half-step third-realm bodies if he so desired.

If the Abyssal will could bestow powerful bodies, so could a third-realm existence.

However… A powerful body also imposed significant demands on the mind and consciousness.

“Dad, do we need to prepare in any way?” Xu Lixing asked, her voice tinged with nervousness.

“The bodies of newborn high-dimensional lifeforms are exceedingly fragile and easy to condense,” Xu Jingming replied with a smile. His strength subtly influenced the bodies of his family members. His current power allowed him to alter the rules to some extent, and his words were akin to law.

Condensing a newborn high-dimensional lifeform body was naturally a straightforward task.

Within a matter of seconds, the essence of their existence underwent a profound transformation! They now possessed the bodies of natural high-dimensional lifeforms.

“This is a high-dimensional lifeform?”

Xu Hong, Li Miaomiao, Xu Lixing, and the others marveled at this novelty. Their perception of space and strength had been irrevocably altered.

“When I was a low-dimensional being, I was filled with countless questions about high-dimensional space.” Li Miaomiao sighed with emotion. “But now, I can perceive high-dimensional space clearly. Many of my questions are no longer mysteries.”

The process of comprehending high-dimensional powers differed significantly between low-dimensional and high-dimensional beings in terms of difficulty.

“This place bears a striking resemblance to our former residence on Earth.” It finally dawned on Xu Lixing that the surrounding structures resembled their old home.

“I found this place incredibly towering; I couldn’t discern its true form at all. Only after becoming a high-dimensional lifeform can I truly see it…” Li Miaomiao also expressed her awe. The perspective of a high-dimensional lifeform was wholly distinct from their previous existence.

Xu Jingming beamed at his family.

He had transformed the countless humans he had revived into the feeblest high-dimensional lifeforms in the Firstborn realm. Suddenly, billions of high-dimensional lifeforms would emerge within the human race.

To third-realm entities, it was a trivial matter.

I can protect them as long as I’m alive, but should I perish during the wager an Abyssal Era later… Xu Jingming glanced at his blissful family and felt a twinge of frustration.

The smooth path he had traversed to reach the third realm was intertwined with the opportunities granted by the Ultimate entity. Yet, at the same time, he had to pay the price.

Boom! Boom!

All of a sudden, spacetime quivered ever so slightly. The 36 third-realm beings sensed it immediately, their eyes fixated on two figures boldly tearing through spacetime and emerging without any attempt at concealment.

The auras emanating from the two figures were nothing short of terrifying, clearly marking them as third-realm existences.

Causing such a ruckus while traversing spacetime? Master of Antinight observed. They are intentionally making a spectacle of their arrival.

Among the pair, one is Overlord Feuilla, and the other… an unfamiliar third-realm powerhouse. Feather Fire Lord and the others noticed.

The two visitors from alternate spacetimes made no effort to hide their presence, yet the third-realm beings in this realm remained silent, for one of them was Overlord Feuilla—a follower of an Ultimate entity.

“Feuilla.” Connoisseur transmitted his voice from a distance.

“Connoisseur,” Feuilla responded politely. They had both served the same Ultimate entity for years and were well-acquainted. Feuilla had often assisted Connoisseur with various matters while he rested.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Overlord Feuilla and the unfamiliar third-realm powerhouse traversed spacetime, arriving at South Pavilion 3609 Dominion within the dominion. They made their way to Xu Jingming’s old residence.

Huh? Xu Jingming and his family immediately took notice of the arrival of the two unfamiliar figures. Their auras exuded might and terror, prompting Xu Jingming to instinctively manipulate the surrounding laws and shield his family.

After all, gazing directly upon the true forms of the two third-realm beings would have a profound impact on his family, who were still newborn high-dimensional lifeforms.

“What brings the two of you here?” Xu Jingming inquired, unfamiliar with the identities of the two third-realm powerhouses before him.

“Wu Ming,” Feuilla, a petite figure with transparent wings, greeted him with a smile. “I am one of the witnesses to the wager. I believe you understand why I am here.”
