Cosmic Professional Gladiator Novel - Chapter 329
Chapter 329: Tejano Leaves (2)
I’m Xu Jingming. This is the Land of Oblivion; it’s all fake. After searching for more than two hours, Xu Jingming finally found a keepsake in the arms of a beauty.
The moment he received the keepsake, the palace dissipated!
Xu Jingming found himself standing in the forest. In front of him was a lake filled with mist.
Xu Jingming felt as if he had woken up from a dream. Everything about being the king of Flowing Cloud Kingdom became a blur, like a dream.
If I had relaxed a little, the memories of being Flowing Cloud Kingdom’s king probably would’ve completely fused with my memories. I wouldn’t have been able to remember my identity, Xu Jingming thought to himself. Moreover, it’s too tempting! Perhaps some explorers will think that… it’s fine to give it a try. Even if they fail once, they can try again.
If one tries to get lucky, it will probably be very difficult to gather all ten keepsakes, Xu Jingming thought.
…
Xu Jingming walked hundreds of kilometers and arrived at the next spot. It was a large mine, and red mist spread out from it.
I have to walk in to find the keepsake. Xu Jingming walked to the red mist.
Buzz!
…
The moment he entered, the scenery changed.
Xu Jingming was on the highest floor of a tall building that towered into the clouds. He could clearly see small spaceships shuttling through the void and descending onto the planet.
“President, the Golden Silkworm Group’s dividend totaling 3.56 trillion cosmic dollars has been credited.”
“President, the annuity issued by the family, totaling 5 trillion cosmic dollars, has also been credited.”
“President, Prince Liucheng of the Quwu civilization has returned the fifth installment of the debt—2.2 trillion cosmic dollars.”
“President…” Illusory figures stood in front of him and reported respectfully.
Xu Jingming sat there as dazzling and vast memories enveloped him.
I’m the 97th child of King Kong, one of the 12 kings of the Ancient River Civilization—Ninefeather Kong. Xu Jingming was stunned when he came into contact with this vast memory.
Ninefeather Kong had unimaginable wealth, and his annual cash flow was unimaginably huge.
Isn’t Ninefeather Kong the legendary… founder of the Nine Feathers Civilization? Even the entire Nine Feathers Star Alliance is named after him? Xu Jingming was stunned. The moment he was stunned, a large number of memories flooded his mind.
His memories quickly blurred, and Ninefeather Kong’s memories began to overwhelm him.
Buzz!
The scene dissipated.
Xu Jingming appeared in front of the mine again and looked at the red mist in front of him. He had failed and was kicked out of the Land of Oblivion.
I was shocked the moment I came into contact with that memory. When I was shocked, that vast memory overrode my memories? I failed the test because I failed to maintain myself. Xu Jingming came to a realization.
The content of the memories I came into contact with should be when Ninefeather Kong was young. After all, he established the intermediate cosmic civilization—the Nine Feathers Civilization—later on, causing the entire Star Alliance to name it after him!
Ninefeather Kong’s father was King Kong, one of the 12 kings of the Ancient River Civilization.
Ninefeather Kong was born noble, but his talent in the evolutionary path wasn’t high! Instead, his talent in business was unimaginable. He even spent money and used external forces to transform himself into an Origin lifeform. Ninefeather Kong was also the most accomplished of King Kong’s many children.
This is the legendary figure in the Cosmic Human Alliance who wields a huge amount of wealth? Xu Jingming exclaimed in surprise. Just some change from the other party could drown Earth’s civilization.
Ninefeather Kong’s identity as a prince only gave him some starting capital. After all, it was impossible for King Kong to build an intermediate cosmic civilization from scratch.
An intermediate civilization first needed a Lv. 10 expert. There were also all kinds of requirements for technological and military achievements, so they needed a large number of scholars. The vastness of the territory and the number of civilizations… All of these aspects had very high requirements.
If I could truly gain Ninefeather Kong’s detailed memories and sense his thoughts, who cares if I sink ten or a hundred times? Unfortunately, I’ve only scratched the surface of his thoughts in the Land of Oblivion. I can’t touch the essence of his thoughts.
He only came into contact with the young Ninefeather Kong’s powerful commercial territory.
It was very difficult to replicate a person’s thoughts. The mental imprints left behind by cosmic legends were only some of the scenes they had experienced.
I’ll try again. I have to resist this time. Xu Jingming walked to the mine again.
…
Beauty, money, power, individual strength, delicacies, pity, hatred, anger…
Of the ten Lands of Oblivion, some targeted personal pursuits, some targeted desires, and some even resonated with strong emotions. In short, as long as one was slightly affected, they would sink into oblivion and fail the test.
Xu Jingming arrived at the eighth Land of Oblivion on June 1, and the test was fury.
All kinds of situations that incurred anger happened.
The misery and grief in the world… How could Xu Jingming not be angry? He couldn’t suppress his anger, and he sank into it because of the emotions.
I’ll log off first. Xu Jingming failed three times in a row and went offline. I have to send Tejano off today.
******
On June 1, 2083, a spaceship set off from Earth and arrived on Mars.
Xu Jingming could see the outside world through the wall of the ship and saw Tejano sitting on the spaceship in the distance. At this moment, Tejano seemed a little lonely as he silently looked at the cosmos.
Whoosh.
The spaceship approached, and the hatch opened. Earth’s upper echelons and Xu Jingming flew out.
“Your Excellency.” Everyone bowed.
“The protection period for Earth’s civilization has officially ended.” Tejano sat on his spaceship and looked at the Earthlings. He said, “I’ll also leave Earth’s civilization today and return to the Cosmic Human Alliance headquarters.”
“Thank you for your protection over the years. Earth will never forget it,” Secretary General Angus said.
Tejano looked at these people and observed them for a few seconds before saying, “Xu Jingming, have a chat with me. The rest of you can return to the spaceship first.”
Earth’s upper echelons looked at each other, immediately bowed, and returned to the spaceship.
Xu Jingming flew to Tejano’s side.
“How’s your exploration of the mysterious land?” Tejano asked with a smile.
“I’m on Planet Number Four,” Xu Jingming answered. “Perhaps I can enter Planet Number Five.”
“That’s not bad,” Tejano said, “but you still have to work hard to enter Planet Number Seven. You even have to gain basic insights into the opportunities available. You can use this opportunity to join the 17 top factions! Because of the 17 top factions’ grooming, your chances of becoming an Origin lifeform will become greater.”
Xu Jingming nodded.
He also yearned to become an Origin lifeform! That way, the fate of Earth would change.
“Without becoming an Origin lifeform, one has to struggle in the circle of low-level civilizations for the rest of their lives,” Tejano said. “Only by becoming a higher lifeform can you, an Earthling, have a chance of stepping into the core circles of cosmic humans. Only then will you and I have a chance to help each other in the future.”
Once Tejano set his mind to start his own business, he started off at the top tier thanks to his resources.
“The core circles of cosmic humans?” Xu Jingming sighed with emotion. “It’s indeed a distance away for me, but I’ll work hard.”
Tejano nodded.
“If you are personally in trouble, remember to contact me,” Tejano said. “After all, we are friends.”
Xu Jingming nodded. “Yeah.”
He understood what Tejano meant. An emerging civilization like Earth would encounter endless troubles after the protection period ended… This was very normal; almost every emerging civilization went through this.
Tejano wasn’t willing to provide cover for the civilization, but he was willing to help Xu Jingming personally.
“That was terse?” Tejano was speechless.
Xu Jingming nodded. “We’re friends.”
“Haha…” Tejano got up. “I’ll make a move.”
Xu Jingming also flew to the side.
“You have to become an Origin lifeform the next time we meet in reality,” Tejano turned his head and said.
Xu Jingming nodded, and Tejano entered the spaceship.
Buzz~~~
This spaceship produced spatial ripples before disappearing into thin air, leaving the Oohook Star Alliance’s territory!
Xu Jingming hovered above Mars and silently stared at the cosmos in front of him.
