Infinite Fighting

This was Zhang Ji's first real experience of an SSS-level battle.

His first impression was that their methods were no longer on the same level.

That kind of method is something that truly transcends the realm of time and space.

The power of space and time carries all things and drives the operation of all matter.

Upon reaching the SSS level, one begins to transcend spacetime, no longer subject to the erosion of spacetime, and one's own material particles are directly and eternally fixed.

The qualitative change in the strength of its own material particles renders them virtually unaffected by any means.

This is also why Zhang Ji's attack was completely ineffective.

Almost no effort was required.

Faced with this kind of enemy, Zhang Ji really felt powerless.

"It's the sect leader and his group!!"

Ding Zhuoran breathed a sigh of relief. Having gone through two brushes with death, he was also on the verge of a mental breakdown.

His cultivation level was too low, and he was blinded by the blazing sun, so he couldn't see what was happening on the battlefield. Only now did he see Chen Hong, holding a treasure bottle, flying over in a flying shuttle.

The Void Shuttle hovered in the void, and the surrounding restrictive chains dissipated.

Four figures flew out of the Void Shuttle and stopped in front of Zhang Ji and Ding Zhuoran.

Zhang Ji's appearance had returned to normal, and Ji Ziyan and Guo Huaxiang couldn't help but have slight emotional changes upon seeing this.

“Li Long?” Ji Ziyan asked.

“It’s me, but my name is also Zhang Ji,” Zhang Ji said frankly.

Now that things have come to this, there's no need to hide it anymore.

He was prepared to lose this body.

He was happily playing a role-playing game to gain benefits, but then this happened; his luck was truly bad.

"It's normal for the sect's prodigies to have some secrets. Since they were personally taught by the Heavenly Lord, they are all pillars of the Azure Sky."

Chen Hong made a conclusion on this matter.

It's understandable that Zhang Ji is hiding his strength, and there's no need to investigate if he has secrets. With the Heavenly Lord's approval, he is trustworthy.

Upon hearing this, Guo Huaxiang and the other two suppressed the strange looks in their eyes and agreed with Chen Hong's words.

Seeing this, Zhang Ji relaxed a bit.

Although I was mentally prepared to be exposed, it's a good thing that I don't have to lose my body.

The group boarded the air-piercing shuttle, and Zhang Ji and Chen Hong sat together.

After realizing what was happening, he understood that he and Ding Zhuoran had been used as bait, and Chen Hong probably wanted to lure them into making a move.

And it seems to have succeeded, only the way it succeeded was different from what Chen Hong had expected.

Chen Hong estimated that the hidden trick left by Ding Zhuoran was activated, which would then attract the mastermind behind the scenes to personally intervene.

But now Zhang Ji has suddenly erupted, forcing the entity behind the scenes to take action.

The results were almost identical, but the processes were different.

"I won't ask where you came from. Now that you've joined Qingcang and gained the Heavenly Lord's approval, you're a Qingcang cultivator." Chen Hong said to Zhang Ji, "You've seen what those extraterrestrial demons are like. They're numerous, their average strength is not low, and there are beings behind them comparable to the Returning Void Heavenly Lord, and there's more than one of them. It's extremely difficult for a single sect to contend with them."

Their goal is to devour the entire Void Realm and transform it into their own essence. At that time, few living beings in this world will survive. Therefore, we need to unite with the other sects of the three realms to defeat or drive them away. Originally, I planned to have Peak Master Qian Kua lead the expedition to the Middle Realm, but now that you have demonstrated such strength, it might be more appropriate for you to lead.

"Me? Why don't you go yourself, Sect Leader?"

Zhang Ji raised an eyebrow, not expecting to suddenly receive a main quest from Chen Hong.

"I need to stay and oversee the sect; I can't leave easily," Chen Hong said.

"As you can see, Master, my strength is limited. I can't beat that kind of opponent at all," Zhang Ji said, shaking his head.

Given his current strength, why would he want to get involved in this kind of battle?

"You will be able to take the Crimson Heaven Bottle, one of the three treasures of the Qingcang Sect, with you," Chen Hong said.

"Is that the bottle you used to throw out the sun, Master?" Zhang Ji asked.

"That's not the Great Sun, but the Profound Yang Divine Stone," Chen Hong corrected.

"As cultivators of Qingcang, it is our duty to fight against the extraterrestrial demons."

Zhang Ji straightened his expression and accepted the main quest.

Even if he only uses and studies those treasures that reach the level of space-time for a period of time, they can be a great help to him. Moreover, judging from Chen Hong's words, he will almost certainly hand them over to him for use.

Who knows, after using it for a while, it might become yours.

"The True Yang Qi stored in the Crimson Heaven Treasure Bottle is limited. The Profound Yang Divine Stone can only be used twice more at most, and should only be used in emergencies. Don't waste it carelessly then," Chen Hong reminded him.

"I understand," Zhang Ji nodded.

Such a powerful weapon is not easy to charge.

Zhang Ji's [Heavenly Will Array Body] can only be used three times when fully charged, and it will take ten days to half a month to fully charge it.

This is even under the current circumstances where there is almost no shortage of spirit stones.

In the previous Tianyuan Realm, it would take hundreds of years to recharge enough energy to use the Heavenly Will Seal once.

"The priority should be self-preservation. If things become unmanageable, we can retreat first and then seek other solutions," Chen Hong added.

Zhang Ji didn't quite understand and asked, "Even with the four realms united, they still can't deal with these extraterrestrial demons?"

The Qingcang Sect has such a foundation; when they summon the Crimson Heaven Treasure Bottle and smash the Xuan Yang Divine Stone, their opponents are directly injured and forced to flee, with no room for resistance whatsoever.

There must be at least a dozen top sects in the four realms combined, right?

Everyone should have treasures of this level. Some of them might even be able to contact the Heavenly Lords who have already returned to the Void, and make a remote call for two of them to come back and help, right?

Why are you acting like you're in a weak position now?
"It's not as simple as you think." Chen Hong shook his head, as if he could see through Zhang Ji's thoughts, and explained, "Not to mention that it is not easy for the many Heavenly Monarchs of Guixu to return now, the strength of that Heavenly Demon is far beyond that of ordinary Guixu Heavenly Monarchs. Even if he returns, we may not be able to defeat him. The purpose of our current alliance is only to let that Heavenly Demon know that we are determined to fight to the death, and force him to give up for the sake of the price. But if that fails, we will have no choice but to abandon Quanxu Realm and leave."

Zhang Ji raised an eyebrow. He had never heard of this when he was playing games before he transmigrated. He thought it was just a minor incident, but now Chen Hong's description made it seem like an apocalyptic crisis.

The Butterfly Effect?

If it's the butterfly effect, his butterfly shouldn't be able to affect things in the chaotic void, right?

It can only be said that they've gone down different timelines!
Zhang Ji's mood turned slightly somber.

Quanxu Continent is a world he plans to develop with all his might, intending to make it one of his secondary bases.

This whole mess is really hard for him to accept.

The Void Shuttle quickly returned to the Qingcang Sect.

Zhang Ji planned to return to Xuan Shen Peak, but Chen Hong stopped him.

“Since Li Long has been killed by the extraterrestrial demons, you, the newly promoted Master Zhang Ji, can stay at my Jingchu Peak as the deputy peak master for now,” Chen Hong said.

In short, Zhang Ji's previous identity was erased, and a new one was created for him.

The newly promoted True Person, and the deputy peak master of the first peak, Jingchu Peak.

This also made it easier for Zhang Ji to lead his team to the Central Realm to fight against the extraterrestrial demons.

And so, Zhang Ji stayed at Jingchu Peak with dignity.

The journey to the Central Realm will have to wait a while. Zhang Ji has not been idle during this time. He has been practicing the "Intercepting Word Technique" every day. Finally, on January 20th, Origin Star time, he gathered all ten essences of this (mythical) level skill-based fighting technique.

Within the confined space, Zhang Ji had a thought, and the ten essences merged into a complete skill crystal.

[Hint: Successfully synthesized 1 "Intercepting Word Technique" (Mythical) Fighting Skill Crystal.]

The orange light emanating from this fighting crystal was so dazzling that it caused Zhang Ji's mind to waver.

This can be considered Zhang Ji's first (mythical) fighting crystal.

Although it's a skill-based skill, to be fair, even without adding attributes, a skill of this level, if used well, can greatly enhance one's own strength.

The next moment, Zhang Ji directly integrated the fighting crystal into his body.

In just a moment, Zhang Ji sensed something was different.

My perspective on the world has changed; everything is being calculated rapidly in my mind.

The possible trajectories of everything are clearly revealed before my eyes.

A deeper glimpse into the future seems to offer a perspective that transcends time and space, allowing us to see through everything.

Zhang Ji had thoroughly understood the principles behind the methods of intercepting destiny, and that destiny was not limited to humans; it existed in all things.

If he operates properly, he can absorb, accumulate, and contain the fortune of all things until he completely breaks free from this framework, enters the realm of time and space, and is no longer affected or involved by cause and effect and fortune.

Compared to intercepting fortune, the "Intercepting Word Technique" is stronger in that as long as an existence has not stepped into the realm of time and space, it will be affected by fortune, and Zhang Ji can use the "Intercepting Word Technique" to plan and arrange his future.

With just this one technique, even if Zhang Ji's cultivation level is lower, he can still make many super S-level experts unable to do anything to him.

Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune is a common practice; with a little planning, one can steer the tide in a way that benefits oneself.

Zhang Ji closed his eyes slightly, immersing his mind in the avatars of other worlds, attempting to use this technique to gather fortune from other worlds.
-
Barber Boundary.

This is the world that Ludo's spacetime rift leads to.

Many giant alien beasts have arrived at Origin Star in succession. Previously, an A-level alien beast even came and caused considerable damage.

The entire population of Trudeau's city has now been relocated.

Zhang Ji's avatar only arrived in the Barber Realm in the last two days.

This world is also one of the worlds that Zhang Ji is relatively familiar with.

There is no civilization in this place.

There were only some enormous monsters.

They are all huge.

Monsters with exaggerated sizes, as large as continental plates, do not not exist.

For Origin Star, this world is also of great value.

However, the development difficulty is also ridiculously high.

The risk factor is too high, even more exaggerated than the world of the weeping insects. Everything there is gigantic, with insects generally being one or two meters in size, and the air contains highly toxic components, making it impossible to develop.

At least a C-level is required to guarantee survival.

Moreover, powerful behemoths are frequently active here.

Every now and then a huge thing, hundreds of meters tall, comes running over and destroys the buildings that have been built.

"Dong dong dong~!"

A sound like an earthquake rang out. Zhang Ji emerged from the underground base and looked into the distance, where he saw a colossal four-legged monster, tens of thousands of meters tall, moving toward their base.

If this gets stepped on, 40-50% of the things that were previously repaired will be damaged.

We must stop it.

Zhang Ji pressed a button on a device near his ear, and the next moment some data appeared before his eyes.

This is an energy level detector designed by the Origin Star. It can detect the energy level of a target and make a rough judgment on its strength.

This monster's energy level is around S-rank level 8, while Zhang Ji's avatar's energy level is only A-rank level 9. To kill it, one must release the Four Sources of the Universe and hit it.

However, it is estimated that it will be discovered during the charging process, and there will also be a large amount of aftershocks spreading from the four sources of the universe.

Fortunately, Zhang Ji's original body had just mastered the "Intercepting Word Technique," so there was another way to solve the problem.

The data collected by the avatar was obtained by the main body, and then the "Intercepting Word Technique" was activated. In just an instant, Zhang Ji had a plan to kill it without taking any damage.

"Begin the operation!" (End of Chapter)
