811 The Origin of Everything (Finale) (7/9)

In the days that followed, Xu Jingming and Redmond grew steadily, until Redmond finally reached the Eternal realm.

During his growth, Xu Jingming stumbled upon a peculiar two-dimensional city by accident. In that strange place, numerous higher-dimensional beings met their demise. Xu Jingming relied on his exceptional skills with weapons to survive, discovering that the combat techniques in the two-dimensional city were indeed peculiar.

At one point, Xu Jingming found himself captured and compelled to join a cannon fodder army. It was a vast army that traversed spacetime, capturing individuals like him to serve as expendable soldiers. It was during this ordeal that he crossed paths with Liu Mangxing. Together, they faced countless trials and tribulations as cannon fodder, until Liu Mangxing tragically perished, leaving Xu Jingming as the fortunate survivor.

Bound by the bond of a life-and-death friendship, Xu Jingming felt compelled to aid Liu Mangxing even after his demise. He added the long-departed Liu Mangxing’s family into the independent spacetime that he created.

In addition to his adventures as a warrior, Xu Jingming also ventured as an explorer, amassing achievements to exchange for valuable legacies. Every resource he acquired demanded him to risk his life. For a third-realm legacy, he spent a harrowing 50 million years as an explorer, encountering both allies and adversaries along the way.

He journeyed far and wide, visiting perilous locations and becoming entangled in wars.

However, it was his arrival in Feather Fire City that astonished Xu Jingming the most. The Feather Fire Lord openly shared his precious legacies, requiring only a small price in return. At that time, Xu Jingming was so overwhelmed with excitement that he could scarcely hold back tears.

In Feather Fire City, Xu Jingming acquired numerous legacies, firmly establishing a strong foundation for his path.

In the true timeline, factions clashed and battled across spacetime. Even half-step third-realm powerhouses could unintentionally become entangled in these conflicts. Xu Jingming recalled the crueler reality under the influence of the Abyss Progenitor.

Thus, he stumbled his way to becoming an invincible half-step third-realm powerhouse.

Surviving to that moment required both strength and luck.

One fateful day, shortly after achieving invincibility at the half-step third realm, Xu Jingming was unexpectedly captured and taken to the Spacetime Arena.

This arena served as a game for third-realm powerhouses, who sent their teams to compete. For them, it was merely a game, but for Xu Jingming… his life was on the line in every battle.

The team consisted of over a thousand members, yet only a select few would ultimately enter the arena. Xu Jingming labored tirelessly, enduring countless hardships, until he finally led the team to an impressive 13th place. This ranking was already considered highly remarkable.

In the distant future, Connoisseur’s team had an impressive record of consecutive championships. Part of their success came from Connoisseur’s exceptional coaching, which brought out the team’s full potential. Another factor was his grandson being an Ultimate existence! With Xu Jingming’s assistance, Connoisseur scoured endless spacetime to recruit the most exceptional team members.

In the past, Xu Jingming had already achieved a remarkable 13th place with his own skills and a team of ordinary teammates. This earned him the admiration of a third-realm powerhouse who was highly satisfied with his performance. As a reward, the powerhouse extended an invitation to Xu Jingming to participate in the next Spacetime Arena competition, which would take place ten Abyssal Eras later.

Xu Jingming didn’t dare to decline the invitation from the third-realm powerhouse and had no choice but to obediently agree.

During the ten Abyssal Eras leading up to the next tournament, Xu Jingming never allowed himself to slack off. He utilized the resources provided by the third-realm powerhouse to nurture his team and continuously strengthen himself.

In the subsequent tournament, Xu Jingming, armed with newfound knowledge, led his team through one challenge after another. In the finals, he had a moment of revelation and broke through to the third realm when he defeated his opponent.

This unexpected breakthrough surprised many observing third-realm powerhouses.

For Xu Jingming, it was a fascinating turn of events. He became an Origin lifeform as a result of the competition.

Reaching the third realm occurred during the finals of the Spacetime Arena. It took him 18 Abyssal Eras to reach this milestone, with 12 Abyssal Eras spent within the Spacetime Arena. Xu Jingming had humorously referred to himself as a Professional Gladiator during that time.

Initially, he was overjoyed by his attainment of the third realm. He held immense authority and even altered the rules. His family was brought back to life, altering the fate of humanity.

Xu Jingming also traversed spacetime, attending gatherings, forging friendships, and engaging in factional battles. He willingly sided with the Mother Stream camp and made significant contributions.

He witnessed several third-realm powerhouses attempting to reach the Ultimate realm and meeting their demise.

Xu Jingming was also fortunate enough to encounter an Ultimate existence and receive a reward.

However, his family’s minds gradually deteriorated, and Xu Jingming was helpless to prevent it. Thankfully, his grandfather possessed an extraordinary mind and willpower. With Xu Jingming’s resources, his grandfather’s mental faculties reached a level comparable to a half-step third realm.

“Jingming, let them slumber,” his grandfather had implored him.

Xu Jingming chose to put his family to slumber, causing time to almost come to a standstill. He then threw himself even more fervently into his path.

As a low-dimensional lifeform, Xu Jingming delved into the Primordial Star lineage. As a high-dimensional lifeform, he seized an opportunity to master the unique Heart Fire lineage within the Primordial Star lineage.

In his subsequent travels, Xu Jingming expanded his knowledge from the Heart Fire school to the mental illusory realm school. Building upon this foundation, he accumulated numerous legacies from the illusory realm, especially from his exchanges with Feather Fire Lord.

With the aid of these legacies, Xu Jingming deepened his understanding and mastery of the mental illusory realm lineage.

Throughout more than ten Abyssal Eras, Xu Jingming engaged in numerous clashes with formidable powerhouses within the Spacetime Arena. Time and time again, he relied on the mental illusory realm to combat his adversaries, allowing his understanding and skills to grow. When he pushed himself to the very brink, he achieved a remarkable breakthrough, ascending from invincibility in the half-step third realm to the coveted third realm.

During those times, the mental illusory realm lineage was not highly regarded, as it was relatively commonplace.

Upon attaining the third realm, the structure of the illusory realm expanded into a vast and remarkably lifelike world.
