Cosmic Professional Gladiator

Obtaining an auxiliary universe was only a pleasant surprise; Xu Jingming's life quickly returned to normal. Other than carrying out interception missions, Xu Jingming devoted almost all his energy to the evolutionary path. Years passed, and his understanding of the Möbius model deepened.

In the blink of an eye, 25 years had passed since he obtained the auxiliary universe.

Black Iron, in the manor where Xu Jingming, Jane, and Yijiu lived.

In the study.

Möbius ring? Möbius ring?

Xu Jingming sat there and sent his psychic force into the Primordial Battle Armor's auxiliary space, observing the Heavenly Python Scale stored inside carefully.

Spacetime is a circle, and so is life. When the most basic life structure unit can form a perfect cycle of spacetime, matter, and energy, it will be a perfect lifeform in the universe, Xu Jingming thought. However, the Möbius model is also the most difficult to evolve of the six models. How do I balance all parties? A perfect combination?

Why does the Möbius model need to have such a structure?

With a thought, Xu Jingming gradually formed the Möbius model in front of him.

Infinite Force condensed and constructed, instantly combining millions of layers of structures and constantly making them take form…

In half an hour, the Möbius Force model formed from 100 billion layers was the size of a fist.

I succeeded. Xu Jingming revealed a look of delight. This is the first time I've built a complete Möbius model, albeit just barely.

However… Xu Jingming also knew the problem.

However, the Möbius model has to be small enough. It needs to form the most basic life unit with the other five Force models. Xu Jingming gazed at it. The Möbius model I construct now is still too big.

However, being able to construct it is already a successful step.

In three years—I have to shrink the Möbius model in three years! Xu Jingming knew very well that he was getting closer and closer to becoming a Lv. 10 Origin lifeform. I need to continue deducing the theory of the Möbius model. The deeper my understanding, the easier it is to shrink it.

In fact, there was also the simplest method—repetition to create muscle memory!

Although it was relatively complicated to construct the Möbius model, doing it over and over again—10,000 times, 100,000 times, or a million times—imbued a familiarity of the model deep into the soul, so it was naturally easier to shrink it.

However, Xu Jingming had the ambition to become a cosmic legend or even a Paramount after all. He still pursued a deeper understanding of the fundamentals.

The more solid one's foundation was, the further one could go.

"Wu Ming—Junior Brother Wu Ming, come over for a drink." A voice sounded.

"Coming." Xu Jingming got up and walked to the balcony of the study. With a step, he traversed dozens of meters and arrived at the manor's open-air wooden table. Jane and Yijiu were preparing some food and wine.

Xu Jingming also waved his hand and prepared some fruits and snacks.

The three of them were prepared; they gathered every few days to eat, drink, and chat.

"Have you heard of Lunarstar's breakthrough?" Yijiu distributed the fine wine and placed the wine glass in front of his two junior brothers. He sat down and said, "How enviable. It hasn't been long since he became a Lv. 10 Origin lifeform, yet he has already grasped high-dimensional powers."

"Junior Brother Wu Ming was able to grasp high-dimensional powers as a Lv. 9 Origin lifeform. Isn't that even more astonishing?" Jane smiled.

"To be able to use high-dimensional powers, it might be because of his wealth of knowledge or it might be because the high-dimensional objects he uses are relatively special, allowing him to easily use high-dimensional powers," Xu Jingming said. "I'm clearly less knowledgeable, and I'm just considered lucky."

"Your talent is one of the best in this era, so it's only right for the research institute to give you a powerful high-dimensional item," Yijiu said. "But Lunarstar became a Lv. 10 Origin lifeform in just over 3,000 years. That's quite outstanding, but there are plenty who are more talented than him. Junior Brother Jane is stronger than him, but I'm still very surprised that he can grasp high-dimensional powers so quickly."

"Junior Brother Lunarstar probably had some fortuitous encounters," Jane remarked.

Even a fool could guess. After all, he had only reached Lv. 10 a few hundred years ago. Without any special encounters, how could he use high-dimensional powers?

"Many people have fortuitous encounters. It's very normal for Senior Brother Lunarstar to have such achievements due to his talent and fortuitous encounters," Xu Jingming said as he ate some meat. He thought nothing of it. After all, he was confident in breaking through to become a Lv. 10 Origin lifeform in three years.

He would be much faster than Lunarstar when it came to reaching Lv. 10. In addition, in terms of fortuitous encounters, with Primordial Battle Armor #9 and the acquisition of an auxiliary universe, how could Xu Jingming be envious of others?

"We can't underestimate Lunarstar," Yijiu said. "As he has grasped high-dimensional powers, he is now the first heir to the Primestar civilization's throne. Once the current emperor abdicates, Lunarstar will ascend the throne and become the Primestar emperor! When that happens, his influence and authority will be completely different."

Xu Jingming and Jane were stunned.

The emperor of an advanced cosmic civilization indeed had resources that ordinary Regis couldn't compare to.

Primordial Battle Armor #9?

The Primestar civilization's cornerstone treasure wasn't inferior to Primordial Battle Armor #9 at all. Speaking of which, the dean was also the one who prepared the Primestar civilization's cornerstone treasure for the family.

"He was promoted to be first in line for the throne. Many Origin lifeforms from the research institute have already sent congratulatory gifts." Yijiu looked at Xu Jingming and Jane. "Have the two of you sent congratulatory gifts?"

"There's no need to send a congratulatory gift for a promotion in the line of succession, right?" Jane frowned slightly.

"According to the normal rules, one naturally has to send a congratulatory gift when officially inheriting the throne," Xu Jingming said. "There's no need to do so just because he moved up in the line of succession, right?"

Under normal circumstances, anyone who reached Lv. 9, Lv. 10, a cosmic legend, was officially made Regis by a civilization, or ascended the throne would receive a congratulatory gift! There usually wasn't much fanfare for other breakthroughs in strength, succession promotions, and official promotions.

"He's only 3,000 years old, and the current emperor is already in his 80,000s. The probability of Lunarstar inheriting the throne is extremely high. Isn't it normal to curry favor with an emperor in advance?" Yijiu smiled.

"Have you sent your gifts?" Jane asked.

"No." Yijiu shook his head.

"Then, it's fine." Jane couldn't be bothered to say anything else. He had only cultivated for a short period of time, but 'Mirror Domain' had reached the level of being the number one human in the universe. At his level, his goal was to become a cosmic legend! He didn't want to be involved in influence struggles.

So what if he was the emperor? It wasn't like he could control him!

"Let's drink." Xu Jingming raised his glass, not minding it at all.

When he reached Lv. 10, his strength would increase greatly, and so would his influence. His homeworld was in the Hunter Cosmic Sector, and similarly, it wasn't within the Primestar emperor's jurisdiction. He could befriend the emperor of an advanced civilization, but there was no need to curry favor.

Xu Jingming's ambition exceeded that of Senior Brother Jane and the others! Not only did he want to become a cosmic legend, but he also wanted to break through to the Paramount realm. The dean was already filled with anticipation toward him back when he met him.

As he had lofty goals, Xu Jingming didn't feel proud even if he was confident in reaching Lv. 10 in three years. Compared to his end goal, what was Lv. 10?

The three of them drank and chatted.

"In the past few years, Hellion Sovereign Moyou has become more and more crazy." Jane put down his wine glass, and his worry showed. "He participates in plundering time and time again. He engages in all kinds of large and medium-scale plundering and even frequently engages in small-scale plundering."

Xu Jingming also put down his wine glass and said seriously, "Yes! We've also intercepted him a few times, but we couldn't intimidate him at all."

"It's very peculiar." Yijiu nodded slightly. "Logically speaking, destroying a portion of his Nightmare World will injure his mind and affect the high-dimensional objects he fuses with. He should've restrained himself after being injured, but in the past few years, he hasn't restrained himself at all. He plundered time and time again… Even though he was injured, he continued plundering."

"Yes, he has already devoured many Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms." Jane nodded.

As the backbone of the human race, a Lv. 10 Origin lifeform would definitely be revived by Paramounts, but they also had to pay the price.

"Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms can't stop him; he's been massacring habitable planets one after another." Xu Jingming was furious but powerless. Although he had deterred the Hellion Lv. 9s that made up the bulk of the forces, he couldn't threaten Sovereign Moyou.

Xu Jingming didn't even dare to appear beside Sovereign Moyou. He just transported his companions—Yijiu and Jane—to Sovereign Moyou from high-dimensional space.

In the past, Sovereign Moyou was a little afraid. But recently, he had gone a little crazy.

"He's a little crazy." Yijiu's eyes were cold. "This isn't good. As one of the ten Hellion Sovereigns, his control over high-dimensional objects is extremely high. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be this crazy."

"There are two possibilities for such madness. First, he has made a new breakthrough in Nightmare power. Second, he is beginning to be assimilated by high-dimensional space." Yijiu had a solemn expression.

"Neither of these two possibilities is good." Jane nodded.

Xu Jingming also knew that the situation was grave, but there was nothing he could do.

…

Sovereign Moyou was the only lifeform on a lonely planet.

He sat alone on his throne and lowered his head in pain as he covered his eyes. An illusory Nightmare World completely enveloped the entire planet, and phantoms roared across the planet. They seemed to descend from an illusion into reality.

"Abyss, Abyss."

"Great Abyss." Sovereign Moyou murmured to himself.

He slowly looked up, and his originally jade-green eyes had turned pitch-black. His pitch-black eyes were even more terrifying.

Every time I pry into the 'history' that these eyes once experienced, although it's painful and torturous, I gradually become stronger. I also became one of the ten Hellion Sovereigns as a result, but I never expected to see the abyss.

In high-dimensional space, the greatest celestial body was the Primordial Star! However, there was also an extremely terrifying vast area—the abyss.

The abyss was famous. Many high-dimensional objects came from it. For example, the Eternal Academy Tower Master—one of the three Paramounts of the cosmic human race—was focused on studying the abyss.

Sovereign Moyou was only a lifeform in the real universe after all. Logically speaking, he wasn't qualified to pry on the abyss! He couldn't even see the abyss, but he saw it through the 'memories' of these eyes.

"I see the abyss, and the abyss has also affected me. These eyes have fused deeper with me," Sovereign Moyou murmured. He extended his hands, and there was a pair of closed eyes in them.

There was also an eye on his chest, and his body was gradually transforming uncontrollably.

"I'm being assimilated." Sovereign Moyou was indignant.

When high-dimensional objects—which had a level higher than that of real cosmic lifeforms to begin with—fused into one's body, there was still a risk of being assimilated even though the Hellion evolutionary method was very special. The Hellions might've accumulated plenty of experience and Sovereign Moyou's control over his Nightmare power was sufficiently brilliant, but viewing the abyss still caused him to enter the process of high-dimensional assimilation.

How could he be worthy of prying on the abyss?

"As long as I become a cosmic legend and completely comprehend the essence of high-dimensional powers, I can perfectly control these eyes and won't have to worry about the danger of assimilation," Sovereign Moyou murmured. Then, he covered his eyes and trembled in pain.
