Chapter 127 How He Did It

The director and the others trusted Xu Jingming greatly and acknowledged his exceptional talent! But upon hearing Xu Jingming's words, they were astonished and found it unbelievable!

"How is that possible?" They were filled with confusion.

Seeing their reaction, Xu Jingming could only explain, "Director, I did indeed kill Na Tuo! Over a hundred years ago… when we had just entered the Origin Mountain Range for about five years, my exploration clone fell into a trap set by the abyss demon, Du Ying."

"A trap set by Du Ying?" The Tower Master asked, puzzled.

"Yes, Du Ying was Na Tuo's accomplice," Xu Jingming explained. "They set up many traps in the Origin Mountain Range to hunt down exploring cosmic lifeforms. After I destroyed that trap, I followed the karmic connection and used my heart realm to teleport to Du Ying's side, where I also discovered Na Tuo. They were both in the same cave lair. Afterward, I killed them both."

"You killed not just one, but two?" The Space-Time Island Master asked in surprise.

Xu Jingming nodded. "Du Ying was weaker, and the Black Lotus Fire was enough to incinerate him. Na Tuo was much stronger, and I even sent a clone to track him down into the abyss before finally killing him."

The silent Director Chu, observing Xu Jingming, finally couldn't help but ask, "Jingming, how did you do it?"

"Yes, Na Tuo had the protection of his cave. The three of us together weren't confident, so how did you manage it?" The Tower Master also asked.

"The cave couldn't stop me. Once I locked onto his location, I could teleport directly to his side," Xu Jingming said. "Then, I used my heart realm weapon to kill him."

"Heart realm weapon?"

The director, Tower Master, and Island Master were all thoughtful.

"It's this spear." Xu Jingming flipped his hand, and a phantom-like, transparent spear appeared in his hand.

The director and the others immediately examined the weapon carefully. The Space-Time Island Master said in puzzlement, "This is just an ordinary heart realm weapon."

"Yes, it's just an ordinary heart realm weapon," Xu Jingming nodded.

An ordinary weapon, in his hands, could unleash extraordinary power!

"I thought you had obtained a Third Realm weapon and relied on its power," the Eternal Tower Master said, filled with curiosity. "You killed Na Tuo with just this ordinary heart realm weapon?"

"Killed with a single strike," Xu Jingming nodded, not hiding anything.

"A single strike?" The director, Tower Master, and Island Master trembled inwardly.

Xu Jingming held the phantom heart realm spear. "Under my spear, if your heart consciousness can withstand it, you live. If it can't, you die."

Xu Jingming didn't hide his strength.

In the Origin Mountain Range, conflicts with other cosmic lifeforms were common due to the ore. If the director and the others understood his strength, they could better formulate strategies to face enemies.

"If you can't withstand it, you die?" The three directors exchanged glances.

"We've mined this small deposit pretty thoroughly. Let's leave," the director said. While chatting with Xu Jingming, they had been constantly mobilizing the power of the three forbidden weapons to bombard the mountain rocks. Now, all the Origin Gold Pearls had been collected.

"Let's go."

Whoosh, the four of them quickly left the area.

…

They flew to another empty passage before stopping. The directors weren't too concerned about the harvest from the small mine; they were most curious about Xu Jingming's strength!

Xu Jingming was a member of the human race, and the stronger he was, the more excited the directors would naturally be.

However, how could Xu Jingming possess such strength? They couldn't quite understand it.

"Jingming, you haven't been an Eternal for even ten thousand years. And you've reached such accomplishments in the heart realm weapon lineage?" The director couldn't believe it. "I've lived for so long and have never heard of such rapid growth. Don't stray onto some evil path!"

"You haven't made any sacrifices to the abyss, have you?" The Tower Master also asked.

Xu Jingming shook his head. "No! Director, you know that I studied the half-step Third Realm inheritance, *Mind God Weapon*."

Xu Jingming had mentioned this before during past conversations.

"Before I obtained this inheritance, one of my clones had already been captured by a Third Realm being and thrown into a world," Xu Jingming said. "At the time, over five million cosmic lifeforms were captured as well."

"Five million cosmic lifeforms captured by a Third Realm being?" The director, Tower Master, and Island Master were shocked. Xu Jingming had never mentioned this before.

"Yes," Xu Jingming nodded. "They made us five million cosmic lifeforms compete in that world. If we failed, we would die, and all our external clones would die as well. The competition in that world was very brutal. Even half-step Third Realms and abyss lords mostly died in that world. Very few could survive."

"I stayed in that world for over five thousand years and barely managed to survive," Xu Jingming said.

The director, Island Master, and Tower Master breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"That world was dangerous, but surviving that ordeal helped me greatly," Xu Jingming said. On one hand, his heart realm had broken through, and on the other hand, he had obtained a precious reward: 'a silver piece of paper.'"

Xu Jingming didn't dare mention the silver paper at all.

If he did, with the half-step Third Realms' ability to observe the past and future, they might detect traces of it.

Once they did, the half-step Third Realms would go crazy! They would stop at nothing to snatch it!

A single spear technique left behind by an ultimate existence! How big of a storm would it stir up? Xu Jingming shuddered at the thought. The half-step Third Realms' frantic scramble would likely destroy an entire territory.

"Because of the gains from that world, my heart realm weapon cultivation was able to reach this level," Xu Jingming explained.

"So that's how it is."

The directors' moods were complicated.

"I didn't expect you to have experienced such a calamity silently over the years," the director said. "You didn't say a word; we were completely unaware."

"It wouldn't have helped to say anything; it would only have made everyone worry," Xu Jingming smiled.

"After suffering comes happiness!" The Space-Time Island Master smiled beside him. "Five million cosmic lifeforms competing brutally, and you ultimately survived. Your gains were obviously great, and you now possess your current strength."

The Eternal Tower Master said with emotion, "I was wondering before why you hadn't ventured into the endless territories after becoming an Eternal. So that was the reason."

Xu Jingming nodded. "At the time, I didn't want to be distracted by other things."

Most heart realm Eternals would venture out to explore, traveling to territory after territory to seek opportunities.

"After surviving that world, I have already sent clones to travel the cosmos," Xu Jingming explained. "I believe that if I go to enough places, I will eventually find an opportunity to learn a Third Realm inheritance."

"Haha, we're counting on you to find a chance to learn a Third Realm inheritance," the Tower Master laughed.

"I will find it." Xu Jingming was still confident. With the heart realm lineage's speed of traveling through territories, he would eventually find it.

The director said beside him with emotion, "I never thought that the little guy from our Yuanchu Research Institute would become stronger than the three of us in the blink of an eye."

"In my opinion, with Jingming's talent, he might even become a half-step Third Realm," the Eternal Tower Master said, looking at Xu Jingming.

"I agree with what Xi He said," the Space-Time Island Master also said.

Xu Jingming smiled and didn't say much.

"Let's divide the Origin Gold Pearls first," the director said, immediately dividing the collected Origin Gold Pearls into four shares, one for each person, about 1,500 Origin Gold Pearls per share. Xu Jingming also received a share.

The explorers' contributions were still very significant. For example, Xu Jingming had discovered this small deposit.

Generally, in a team, the heart realm explorer occupied a share that exceeded the average level.

On Myriad Star Island, when human cosmic lifeforms acted together, they divided everything equally.

"I feel like I'm taking advantage of Jingming, since I'm taking a share while Jingming is also taking a share," the Eternal Tower Master laughed.

"When we killed Yu Fangtuo and the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon, I also took a share. Wasn't I taking advantage of you then?" Xu Jingming said.

"Hahaha…"

The directors all laughed. They were all quite emotional; back then, they were taking care of Xu Jingming, but now, Xu Jingming was gradually taking care of them.

If Xu Jingming became a half-step Third Realm in the future, he would be the absolute leader of the human race. The directors also yearned for that day to come.

******

After Xu Jingming left the Myriad Race World, he began sending clones to travel the endless territories to seek great opportunities.

Territory after territory, with the heart realm lineage's peak Eternal strength to perform heart realm teleportation, his travel speed was extremely fast. In a single day, he could cross many territories.

"Nine Secrecy 3302 Territory." The Great Traveler Xu Jingming arrived at a new territory and went directly to the most prosperous trading location in the territory.

"I've been traveling for over fifteen hundred years and still haven't found an opportunity to learn a Third Realm inheritance," Xu Jingming sighed inwardly. Having a lineage to guide him and not having one to guide him made the difficulty of becoming a half-step Third Realm completely different.

The vast majority of Eternal cosmic lifeforms would never learn a Third Realm inheritance in their lifetime.

"The heart realm lineage can continue to travel. As long as I travel to a wide enough area, I believe I will find an opportunity." Xu Jingming was also very patient, looking at the prosperous trading location before him.

There were countless floating mountain peaks here. Each floating mountain peak had shops and buildings, and cosmic lifeforms stationed there.

Xu Jingming sensed the area slightly and identified the most powerful heart realm expert.

Whoosh.

Xu Jingming landed in front of the shop building on that mountain peak. A thin alien was already there to greet him.

"Wu Ming is traveling through many territories and passing by this place," Xu Jingming said politely.

"Yun Fansheng greets Brother Wu Ming, please," the thin alien smiled. He could also sense Xu Jingming's aura; his strength was likely no less than his.

Xu Jingming followed him inside.

When he traveled to trading locations in many territories, he would visit heart realm experts. After all, the heart realm lineage was generally well-informed.

"Brother Wu Ming has come to me. I wonder what you wish to buy?" the thin alien asked.

"Is there a chance to learn a Third Realm inheritance for sale?" Xu Jingming asked directly. The few cosmic lifeforms from the human race were most eager for a Third Realm inheritance.

"I don't have it here, but there is a place that does," the thin alien smiled.

"Oh?" Xu Jingming's eyes lit up.

After traveling for over fifteen hundred years, he had finally heard news.

"Where is it? I am willing to pay for the information," Xu Jingming said.

"Brother Wu Ming should continue to travel, and I believe you will explore this news before too long. There is no need for an information fee," the thin alien smiled. "The place I'm talking about is a territory quite far from here. There is a city there called Featherfire City."
