Cosmic Professional Gladiator Chapter 694 – 694 Hunting Target

694 Hunting Target
On Myriad Star Island.

The dean, Tower Master, Island Lord, Redmond, and Xu Jingming convened.

“Now that we've acquired a miniature universe, we only possess a 100-year lease period.” The dean's eyes glinted with frost. “We must expedite our actions. We must identify a target for the universe in South Pavilion 3609 Dominion.”

“With a miniature universe, migration will be simpler. We must select a sufficiently vast territory,” Eternal Tower Master declared. “Based on our original plan, the most appropriate target is that Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon ‘Sinan'. The Magiplant species it cultivates occupies a cumulative 51 cosmic sectors. Such a vast territory is highly fitting for us humans to migrate.”

Xu Jingming spoke softly, “The Abyss Thousand-eyed Spider Demon enjoys conducting Abyss Sacrifices. I can confirm that it has sacrificed over 1,000 high-dimensional lifeforms! It's tyrannical and constantly hunts high-dimensional lifeforms. It occupies 51 cosmic sectors in that universe alone because of its immense strength.”

“The ones we desire to slay must be formidable!” The dean's eyes gleamed with frigidity. “As newcomers to a dominion, we must employ our strength to intimidate everyone.”

“The three of us aren't even daunted by a half-step third realm. Why should we tremble before it?” Eternal Tower Master retorted icily.

“It's been too long since we've battled.” Spacetime Island Lord's killing intent was also ablaze.

Xu Jingming assented. “The advantage of targeting the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon is that it has garnered numerous adversaries due to its Abyss Sacrifices. Many species in that universe hold grudges against it and can't wait for its demise. If we eliminate it… the surrounding species will only observe.”

“It's fine even if they interfere,” the dean stated. “A half-step third-realm powerhouse can't do much to the three of us in a direct confrontation when we wield our forbidden weapons. Even if the high-dimensional lifeforms in the universe band together, they won't pose a threat to us.”

Xu Jingming also felt more assured.

The dean was the first human to reach the Eternal realm, and he had now reached the pinnacle of the Eternal realm. With his assistance, even though Eternal Tower Master's progress was slower, he inherited the brutal Abyss lineage and also reached the pinnacle of the Eternal realm. Compared to the two of them… Spacetime Island Lord was exceptionally gifted and progressed rapidly. She also encountered numerous strokes of luck.

The three of them progressed significantly after acquiring the Monhado legacy and the Eight Directions Map legacy. They didn't regard the ostensibly prominent Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon with much concern.

“The disadvantage of confronting it is that if we fail to kill it!” Xu Jingming cautioned. “It's a natural Abyss lifeform that has nothing to fear. If it targets us humans… we'll face endless trouble in the future.”

“Hence, we must eliminate it in one fell swoop.” Eternal Tower Master gazed at Xu Jingming. “Don't worry. For it to have carried out so many Abyss Sacrifices, it'll be severely corrupted by the Abyss. It definitely won't tolerate even a slight provocation from you.”

“I'll entrust the task of provoking it to you, Jingming.” The dean regarded Xu Jingming. “You'll be out in the open, and we'll lay in wait… We must obliterate its true form in our first attack. Once we fail and expose our strength, it'll be problematic.”

“I understand.” Xu Jingming nodded.

After a meticulous day of preparations, Myriad Star Island commenced its migration the next day.

“Myriad Star Island resembles an island, but it's actually a special weapon refined by Spacetime Island Lord. It can flee into the Mother Stream at any moment,” the dean disclosed.

Spacetime Island Lord had already repurposed the colossal Myriad Star Island into the pendant space on her chest.

“Jingming, kindly lead us to South Pavilion 3609 Dominion,” Eternal Tower Master requested with a grin.

“It'll be somewhat tedious.” Xu Jingming smiled and immediately entered the Heart Realm with the dean, Tower Master, Spacetime Island Lord, and Redmond. As for the other high-dimensional lifeforms, they remained on Myriad Star Island within the pendant.

“Let's go.”

Xu Jingming evidently found it more arduous to teleport with everyone. After all, a group of high-dimensional lifeforms was concealed on Myriad Star Island. This was even more challenging than traveling with ten billion low-dimensional lifeforms.

Fortunately, he had attained the Eternal realm, so his long-range teleportation could extend much further than when he was at the Firstborn realm.

After ten teleports and an hour of respite, it took Xu Jingming eight hours to reach the South Pavilion 3609 Dominion.

“We've arrived. South Pavilion 3609 Dominion. The universe before us is the target we selected,” Xu Jingming announced.

“A new abode for humans.”

The dean, Tower Master, Island Lord, and Redmond also surveyed the surroundings.

“Since we're here, let's initiate the plan,” the dean declared. “Half-step third-realm powerhouses possess the ability to discern the future. We must conclude this swiftly to prevent additional variables from surfacing.”

In a Rank 1 universe.

The vast dominion occupied by the Abyss Thousand-eyed Spider Demon cultivated innumerable Magiplants. They were also renowned throughout this universe and were one of the top three largest species. After all, there were no half-step third-realm beings in this universe, and the competition wasn't as fierce as in Xu Jingming's home universe.

Whoosh.

Xu Jingming, garbed in a black robe, arrived in the vast dominion. He didn't conceal his intimidating aura in the slightest, and black flames blazed in all directions.

Huh?

A consciousness carrier of the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon was responsible for safeguarding this area. All the high-dimensional lifeforms in the universe sensed the arrival of an Eternal powerhouse with his unmasked aura.

It's him? A high-dimensional lifeform from the Heart Realm lineage, Ming? The Abyss Thousand-eyed Spider Demon recognized him instantly. He had come to this universe and claimed a planet for mental observation experiments. Why is he here?

Soon, its consciousness carrier approached.

In the pitch-black cosmos, Xu Jingming stood there, shrouded in black flames. He suddenly perceived a rotund figure in a white gauze robe.

When the figure materialized, it exuded imperceptible Abyssal corruption.
What heavy Abyssal corruption. Its primary form must have been severely corrupted by the Abyss, Xu Jingming ruminated. However, he had utilized his sins to condense the Black Lotus Fire, so how could he be concerned with some corruption?

“Ming, I know you.” The rotund figure in a white gauze robe regarded Xu Jingming. “Why aren't you observing and experimenting? What are you doing here?”

“The mental observation experiment has concluded.” Xu Jingming beamed at it. “I've decided to allow that low-dimensional lifeform species to reproduce on a large scale. I surveyed this universe and found your territory quite vast. I don't require too much; give me half.”

The Abyss Thousand-eyed Spider Demon was taken aback. What? What the hell?

In order to claim such an extensive region in the universe, it had battled fiercely on numerous occasions before the surrounding species acknowledged its dominance.

Ming wanted half of its territory?

Hoohoo… The Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon chortled, its laughter emitting peculiar fluctuations that spread in all directions. Weaker Firstborn realm high-dimensional lifeforms would likely perish from these fluctuations.

“I've always been the one hunting other high-dimensional lifeforms, but someone is now turning the tables on me? How exhilarating,” the Abyss Thousand-eyed Spider Demon declared, but its bloodlust surged.

It gazed at Xu Jingming. “Do you believe I cannot kill you just because you're of the Heart Realm lineage?”

As its voice reverberated, an unimaginably enormous black shadow enshrouded the dominion. The Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon was situated in the center of the colossal black shadow, which it manipulated to envelop Xu Jingming.

“Pay the price for daring to provoke me. Henceforth, I'll slay you every time I encounter one of your clones.” The Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon's tone was low.

“With this consciousness carrier?” Xu Jingming sneered and flicked his finger lightly.

A speck of Black Lotus Fire shot out from his fingertip. As an attack from the Heart Realm lineage, it tainted the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon's body the moment it struck.

This consciousness carrier couldn't withstand the Black Lotus Fire at the Three-leaf realm whatsoever, and its entire form immediately ignited.

The Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon remained impassive as it disregarded the agony of the Black Lotus Fire scorching its body and consciousness. It solely focused on Xu Jingming. “Interesting, interesting. I'm eager to witness if you can afford to provoke me.”

“I'm eagerly anticipating your arrival,” Xu Jingming retorted icily.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon's consciousness carrier was entirely incinerated to ashes, leaving behind a few artifacts.

A high-dimensional lifeform from the Heart Realm lineage, Ming, has the audacity to invade the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon's territory and even annihilate its consciousness carrier.

He's challenging the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon?

The Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon has no attachments and has gone insane from the Abyss's taint. To be targeted by it? Ming perhaps only dares to be so brazen because he's a solitary figure and has naught to fret over.

The high-dimensional lifeforms of the other species in the universe observed this spectacle from afar. They were somewhat taken aback and anticipatory.

Let them battle it out!

Regardless of which side perished, they relished watching the spectacle.

The Abyss was an existence on the same level as the Mother Stream, Heart Realm, and Primordial Star. What was even more formidable was that… it possessed a will.

The Abyss was an exceedingly unique existence. It permeated every dominion, allowing one to journey to other dominions via the Abyss. However, the Abyss was brimming with peril, making it incredibly challenging for high-dimensional lifeforms to traverse.

One of the outer layers of the Abyss contained infinite danger and a plethora of treasures. There were hundreds of Abyss Overlords in this stratum, and this layer infiltrated over 10,000 dominions.

Huh?

The true form of the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon was in this layer of Abyssal space, which fell under the jurisdiction of an Abyss Overlord.

It was immensely colossal, possessing over a thousand crimson eyes that it opened.

Ming from the Heart Realm lineage? How dare he slay my consciousness carrier and seize my territory? The Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon's tone was feeble.

Dome Wishswan, Asinus, hurry over. The Abyss Thousand-eyed Spider Demon's voice transmitted via karma.

Soon.

Two figures rushed over.

One was a bird that appeared to blot out the sky, while the other was a tall and robust black-haired figure. Both exuded potent Abyssal corruption.

“Sinan, what's the issue?” Asinus advanced and inquired.

“I'm in peril. An Eternal of the Heart Realm lineage has challenged me. I sense something amiss, so please join forces with me.” The Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon's tone was weak and deep.

“Same old rules,” the bird that obscured the sky declared as it descended.

“Naturally, it's the usual rules. All the spoils of war will be divided equally between the two of you; I don't require them. If things take a turn for the worse, I'll make it up to the two of you,” the Abyss Thousand-Eyed Spider Demon stated.

Having executed Abyss Sacrifices for a prolonged period, they had foes everywhere, so they naturally had their own means of survival.

They seemed to act alone, but at times, they would band together.

“Alright.” Asinus and Dome Wishswan weren't intimidated by combat in the slightest. They were high-dimensional lifeforms who had undergone numerous gory battles and possessed knowledge of various tactics.
