Chapter 716 - 390: Trillion and the Approaching Enemy
Chapter 716: Chapter 390: Trillion and the Approaching Enemy
“Oh?”
Although the two were not meeting for the first time.
Chen Sheng’s modus operandi had been experienced by Jubilation early on.
But the words of today still caught him somewhat by surprise.
“It seems your strength has increased quite a bit recently?”
A gaze sizing him up from top to bottom.
You Cai was painting a curve of curiosity.
Jubilation was very curious about Chen Sheng’s current strength.
Unfortunately,
Chen Sheng didn’t seem inclined to answer.
He was just quietly stroking his chin, seemingly deep in thought.
“Alright, alright.”
Seeing that he wasn’t speaking.
Jubilation spread his hands.
“But I still have to remind you.”
“Among those looking for you, there are also quite a few Universe Level Powerhouses.”
“Even if you are very strong…”
Although in Jubilation’s view.
Chen Sheng’s potential was immensely strong.
As a Practitioner, his strength could be considered top-notch in his level.
However…
The time Chen Sheng had was just too little.
Three months.
Even if the opponent were cheating, at best their strength might reach the Galaxy Level.
It would likely be insufficient to combat a higher level Universe Level.
And once battle ensued and the aura leaked.
Chen Sheng’s position would be exposed, thus attracting countless Breakthrough Limit beings.
At that time,
he would likely find himself in a predicament with no easy way out.
“I’ve taken note.”
Chen Sheng nodded slightly, accepting Jubilation’s warning.
“Anything else?”
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.”
He looked up at Jubilation.
After a slight shake of his head,
Chen Sheng cut off the connection between their souls.
His figure gradually faded until he completely vanished.
As for Jubilation.
He didn’t leave either.
He was still nonchalantly sitting on the chair, lightly tapping his fingers on the tabletop.
“I’ve said it before.”
“He is interesting, isn’t he?”
The voice echoed in the Black Mist.
Among the many chairs around, a figure slowly emerged from one of them.
This was a man with a lazy expression, an ordinary face.
In the pattern of the chair he occupied, this man lay across the center of the universe while everything around him stepped into the void.
Wu Yi.
This was the man’s name.
It was also the path he practiced.
The reincarnation of life.
The birth of the world.
The life and death of the universe.
In Wu Yi’s view,
all things should not have an eternal existence.
Only the process of perpetual repetition from void to existence, and from existence back to void, is the proper trajectory for the Endless Universe they inhabit.
And the Supreme Demon and its subordinates are the parasites obstructing reincarnation, the grandest virus above the universe.
Therefore,
after Wu Yi became a Practitioner,
he accepted Jubilation’s invitation and joined the camp of Practitioners he belonged to.
Hoping that with the strength of everyone, they could eliminate the Supreme Demon together.
“It’s not bad,”
“But we need to observe more.”
Wu Yi didn’t even lift his head, replying softly.
“Facing the Supreme Demon,”
“what we need is never a burden,”
“but rather a strong person capable of marking their own steps with their strength.”
“If his performance is worthy of the help you have previously rendered,”
“then we should intervene and extricate him from his dire situation.”
“If his strength is insufficient…”
He didn’t finish his sentence.
But Wu Yi’s implication was clear.
In response,
Jubilation had no objections.
Though the Practitioners’ camp was gathered under his lead, it wasn’t his sole decision.
Newcomers,
not only required Jubilation’s acknowledgement,
but also the consent of the other members.
Just as Wu Yi said,
they didn’t need weaklings who required care, but rather strong partners who could fight alongside them.
And since obtaining the Pocket Universe, Chen Sheng hadn’t left his world in three months.
To the other Practitioners, this could be seen as complacency.
Even if his strength has improved now, he’s at best Galaxy Level.
Therefore,
this time,
they weren’t planning to help from the very beginning.
Rather, they decided to observe for a while.
Facing crisis,
if Chen Sheng’s performance was impressive enough to catch their eye,
they would intervene to resolve the crisis and avoid a desperate situation.
But if Chen Sheng couldn’t meet the challenge,
according to the others,
they planned to let him perish.
“Fine.”
“I have no objections.”
“But if Chen Sheng performs well, who shall take action then?”
“Perhaps seek out Mystique.”
“With his ability, he should be able to assist the nearby Practitioners in quickly pinpointing the location when Chen Sheng encounters an enemy.”
————
Blue Star.
Wutong Village.
Chen Sheng opened his eyes, his gaze steady.
Previously in the Black Mist,
the implication from Jubilation was very clear.
The other Practitioners,
were not intending to offer him much help.
Perhaps it was a test,
or perhaps for another reason.
However,
Chen Sheng didn’t care.
“Huff—”
He exhaled deeply.
Standing up from the ground, he went over to the edge of the balcony.
Gazing at the distant scenery,
memories began to flood Chen Sheng’s mind.
When he first returned to Quanjiang City and started training his body,
whenever he was exhausted, he would always come to the edge of the balcony like this and gaze at the scenery.
Along the way,
the gap between him and the people once by his side had become vast as heaven and earth.
Chen Sheng knew,
that as he continued to grow stronger,
he would inevitably encounter situations where no one could help and he could only rely on himself.
He was already prepared in his heart for this.
At least,
compared to his weaker days,
he was now no longer powerless.
With this thought,
Chen Sheng summoned the Panel.
Under the command of his will,
the words representing his physical attributes were no longer displayed in numbers.
Instead, Chinese characters were used.
And the characters displayed on the Panel were now very succinct.
[Physical Body: One Trillion]
These two simple words contained power beyond imagination.
