Chapter 314: Sacrifice 10,000 Gold (1)
Xu Jingming walked into the towering Cosmos Tower and arrived at the sixth floor.
I haven’t tried it again ever since I failed half a year ago. Xu Jingming appeared in midair, wearing modern sportswear and holding only a spear. He looked at the bustling metropolis in front of him.
The skysc.r.a.pers were even more magical than in reality. A black-robed man stood on the top of the skysc.r.a.per in front of him.
The black-robed man stood beside the rooftop swimming pool and overlooked the city. He suddenly sensed something and looked at Xu Jingming.
“A bedbug?” The black-robed man glanced at Xu Jingming and extended his right hand to point at him.
!!
His five fingers shot out specks of light.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Five specks of light drew strange arcs and attacked Xu Jingming from different angles.
Xu Jingming stood in midair, his body enveloped in a hazy glow. The specks of light shot past him, and his figure turned ethereal and disappeared.
He appeared just three meters away.
The black-robed man frowned slightly and stopped controlling the five light specks. They drew a parabola and plummeted into the distance.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A speck of light crashed into a skysc.r.a.per, causing it to explode. The gravel from the explosion even implicated the surrounding buildings.
A light speck crashed into a stadium.
Boom!
The entire stadium exploded and crashed, bringing down even the surrounding buildings.
A speck of light landed in the river and blasted apart the bridge, sending the river’s water crashing into both banks.
Explosions occurred in five places! The destructive might in every spot was terrifying.
Xu Jingming was used to it. This was the destructive force that a peak Lv. 6 cosmic lifeform could casually produce!
“Show me your full strength. Otherwise, you won’t have the chance to make a move,” Xu Jingming said. He didn’t want to delay and let his opponent on the sixth floor of Cosmos Tower gradually unleash his strength.
“Huh?” The black-robed man raised his eyebrows and sneered. “Use my greatest strength?”
Whoosh.
The black-robed man disappeared into thin air, and when he appeared again, he was beside Xu Jingming. A terrifying saber beam then streaked past the latter!
“As you w—” The black-robed man appeared beside Xu Jingming as if he had teleported. When he struck out with the saber beam, he uttered a few words only to have his expression change before he could finish.
Xu Jingming levitated motionlessly. He held the spear in one hand and moved the spear shaft slightly to block the strike.
The black-robed man revealed a look of shock and anger.
“It looks like you’re not too strong.” Xu Jingming shook his head slightly.
“Pfft.” The black-robed man didn’t have the time to react before the spear penetrated his chest. The spear’s force naturally vibrated, causing the black-robed man to turn into dust and dissipate.
I’ve already reached Lv. 7. My actual combat bonus… is considered the most terrifying among Lv. 6 cosmic lifeforms in the universe. I’m already quite a bully fighting you with a single hand. Xu Jingming also found it too easy.
“You have cleared the sixth level. Prepare to enter the final seventh level of Cosmos Tower. Friendly reminder: You only stand a chance of clearing the seventh level after reaching Lv. 8.” A gentle voice sounded in his ears.
Xu Jingming’s expression stiffened when he heard that. After all, his spearmanship had only reached Lv. 7, and his evolutionary method was still stuck at a 99% intermediate cosmic lifeform. He had never thought of clearing the seventh level.
I originally thought that top Lv. 7 experts could clear the seventh level. Who would’ve thought that Earth would set the difficulty to be very high? Only Lv. 8s have a chance of clearing it? Xu Jingming thought and became even more curious.
He could lose, but he had to take a look at the opponent on the seventh level.
The scene in front of him changed, and he headed for the seventh floor of Cosmos Tower.
…
The seventh level—and also the final level of Cosmos Tower! Earth had set it to the highest difficulty.
This was a lonely planet.
Whoosh.
Xu Jingming appeared in the sky and kept falling uncontrollably toward the planet’s surface.
The surface of the planet had a dark-brown lithosphere. There were no plants or water.
That is? As Xu Jingming plummeted, he finally saw a huge creature on the ground.
This creature was more than 100 meters tall and more than 500 meters long as it lay there like a hill! It had cyan skin with a small number of red patterns. It looked a little like the dinosaurs that had appeared in Earth’s history.
It was just that it was ma.s.sive.
Huff~
Puff~
This creature was sleeping, and its breathing formed a terrifying storm! The storm swept across an area of more than 50 kilometers, and its might left Xu Jingming dumbfounded.
A storm that spans more than 50 kilometers just from its breathing? When Xu Jingming landed, he suddenly felt an invisible vital magnetic field.
It was the vital magnetic field possessed by this huge creature!
Any trespa.s.ser was viewed with hostility. When Xu Jingming fell, he had clearly invaded its vital magnetic field.
Not good. Xu Jingming inexplicably panicked when he fell into the other party’s vital magnetic field.
The terrifying vital magnetic field also had a natural reaction when it sensed the invasion of other lifeforms. Lightning bolts appeared in the area of the vital magnetic field!
Crackle!
Countless lightning bolts appeared without any warning.
Xu Jingming didn’t have the time to react.
The cosmic energy protecting his body was extremely weak in the face of the lightning. His entire body evaporated under the lightning.
“I…” Only the word ‘I’ lingered as Xu Jingming turned ethereal.
*******
Is it that sick? Xu Jingming appeared outside Cosmos Tower in a daze. Even if I become an Advanced cosmic lifeform, I would probably be insta-killed. It’s no wonder the friendly reminder said that I only stand a chance of clearing it at Lv. 8.
