After who knows how long, the space returned to its desolation and silence, everything returned to silence.
If this space hadn't been reduced to ruins, if that terrifying space crack hadn't disappeared.
It was as though nothing had happened.
The three people who were originally here had disappeared, no one had seen them.
All sorts of asteroids were shattered, and the remains of space battleships were floating in space. There was no pattern to it at all.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed, a ship passed by, it was a mercenary group out on a mission, the strongest in the group was only a universe level fighter.
They saw the ruins and the space crack that hadn't closed in a long time, they were all shocked.
"Let's go quickly! There must have been a terrifying battle here. "Someone gulped and said anxiously.
"It seems to have ended, otherwise why would it be so peaceful." Someone seemed to have noticed something and said hesitantly.
"Seems like it …"
"Go go go, let's go down and take a look, who knows, there might be some treasures!"
"Such a terrifying scene, the people fighting back then were definitely sector lord level fighters, there must be plenty of treasures!"
"Leader, what do you think?"
"Wealth comes from danger, since we've encountered it, let's go down and take a look." The leader of the mercenary group said seriously.
As universe mercenaries, these fighters were cautious and fearful of death, but they were also brave enough to take risks, finally they decided to search around.
It didn't take long for these people to discover the wreckage of some spaceships and battleships. One must know that these were the remains of the Black Skull Pirates after their spaceships and battleships exploded. Although many things were damaged or disappeared into the spatial cracks, even these wreckages may contain extremely precious metals that could be sold for a lot of universe dollars.
To this universe mercenary group whose strongest was only universe level, this was already a huge reward.
What's more, it was completely free, unlike the mercenary missions where their lives were in danger, they were naturally extremely excited and happy.
"Look, isn't this a black skull symbol?" a mercenary asked suspiciously as he found a larger piece of spaceship wreckage.
"Let me see." In an instant, many people gathered around.
With such a symbol, it was easy to find clues, maybe they could deduce the identity of this unfortunate fleet.
"Black skull symbol!" The leader of this mercenary group flashed and appeared beside the mercenary. He looked at the wreckage in the mercenary's hand and narrowed his eyes. "Black Skull Pirates!"
Everyone's expression changed when they heard this.
"Leader … Leader, are you talking about the Black Skull Interstellar Bandit Group, one of the top three bandit groups?" The mercenary who discovered the wreckage stuttered. He felt that the wreckage in his hand was like a hot potato, and he couldn't wait to throw it away.
"That's right. Other than the Black Skull Space Bandit Group, no one else would dare to use this symbol," the captain said in a deep voice.
"But how could this be … That's the Black Skull Pirates!" Everyone was in disbelief.
A fleet of the Black Skull Pirates had met with misfortune here!
What exactly happened?
Suddenly, a mercenary said, "I remember that just a few days ago, a fleet of the Black Skull Pirates besieged Planet Pentastar. No one knew where they went after that."
Everyone immediately reacted. Someone opened the star map and immediately determined the distance between Planet Pentastar and this place. The timing was right.
"This Black Skeleton Galactic Bandit fleet seems to be that fleet!" Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Quick, get into the spaceship. We have to leave this place immediately," the captain of this mercenary group said with a horrified expression.
"Leader, don't you want these wreckages? They're worth a lot of money! "Someone said unwillingly.
"Money, money, money. What time is it now? You only care about money. Let's go. If the Black Skull Pirates know that we're here, they won't let us go," the captain said angrily.
Everyone's expression finally changed completely as if they had thought of something extremely terrifying. They no longer hesitated and entered the spaceship to leave this place.
In the next few days, other people came to this space. Naturally, like the mercenary group, they looted and picked up a lot of good stuff. Then, they saw the Black Skull Space Bandit Group's logo and were scared to leave.
Many people had discovered this, but not all of them had brains. Naturally, the news of the destruction of the Black Skeleton Galactic Bandits' fleet spread out.
For a time, it caused an uproar.
…
Another day passed, and an old man came here. He walked out from the void, but it was as though he had become one with the surrounding void. His gaze swept over the area, and his deep eyes contained a sense of vicissitudes. Divine light flickered within, as though he could see through everything.
"True God!"
"No, it's just a projection!"
An old voice that sounded like he was mumbling to himself came out of his mouth.
In the next moment, he waved his hand and the entire space in this space began to fluctuate. It was like ripples spreading out in all directions.
Not long after, a lump of flesh appeared from the void and floated in front of the old man.
The flesh wriggled and half a body appeared. It was the Black Mountain Python. His lower body had disappeared and only his upper body, including his heart, was left.
At this moment, his eyes were closed and his face was extremely pale as if there were no signs of life.
"You're not stupid."
"But how did you offend a True God?"
The old man shook his head and looked at the piece of flesh and half of the body in front of him. He waved his hand again, and two huge repair cabins immediately appeared in the air. He put the piece of flesh and half of the body into one of the repair cabins.
Then, the old man and the repair cabins disappeared on the spot at the same time.
…
Wang Teng did not know what had happened between Old Monster Hui and the Black Mountain Python. It had been more than ten days since he went into seclusion.
In a room in the manor, Wang Teng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.
There was no movement in the outside world, but in Wang Teng's small universe, it was earth-shattering.
In the small universe, a huge golden nine-story pagoda was suspended in the void. Thousands of heavy hammers surrounded the nine-story pagoda and bombarded the pagoda crazily.
These heavy hammers could be divided into two different styles and the aura they emitted was extremely different.
One of the heavy hammers had magical crimson flame patterns on it. When it bombarded the nine-story pagoda, it carried the power of the flame as if the pagoda was placed on the flame to be calcined.
It was not an ordinary flame, but four different Worldly Exotic Flames.
Green Jade Glazed Flame!
Ten Thousand Beasts True Spirit Flame!
Holy Light Flame!
Dark Flame!
The four Worldly Exotic Flames emitted a terrifying power of the flame. Calcined with such a flame would definitely make the pagoda indestructible.
The other heavy hammer was engraved with purple patterns. When it was waved, there were strange and terrifying Thunder that bombarded the pagoda, causing electric arcs to appear on the pagoda.
That was the power of Calamity Thunder!
Wang Teng's Calamity Thunder of Heaven and Earth had reached Level Two and was close to Level Three. It was much more terrifying than when he had condensed the nine-story pagoda.
At that moment, the power of Calamity Thunder was entwining the pagoda and constantly rushing in and out of the pagoda, tempering the pagoda.
As the heavy hammers fell, traces of Origin Source Law of Fire and Origin Source Law of Thunder appeared out of thin air and integrated into the pagoda, causing mysterious patterns to appear on the pagoda.
Boom! Boom! Boom …
Just like that, the pagoda was being forged.
Flames and Thunder enveloped the nine-story pagoda, causing it to become even more mystical. It emitted a dazzling golden light that illuminated the entire internal universe.
This Nine Treasures Pagoda was newly condensed and forged by Wang Teng. He had integrated his Universe Pinnacle Spiritual Energy into it, causing the pagoda to become even stronger and more solid, far surpassing its previous state.
Traces of ancient aura spread out from the nine-story pagoda. It was extremely deep, majestic, and dignified.
Among the mysterious runes, various strange and mysterious totems of living beings appeared. These living beings were ferocious and majestic, and their bodies were as tall as giants, ready to jump out at any moment.
Suddenly, the flames and Thunder disappeared, and the Nine Treasures Pagoda was completely formed. It emitted a dazzling and blinding golden light.
However, this golden light quickly converged and became extremely gentle.
At the same time, Wang Teng's internal universe calmed down completely. The pagoda that was 10,000 feet in size instantly shrunk and slowly sank into the core of the black hole.
"Whoosh!"
In the outside world, Wang Teng suddenly opened his eyes. A bright light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he let out a long breath of turbid air.
"It's finally completed!"
A trace of paleness and exhaustion appeared on his face. He could not help but smile bitterly.
Every time he hammered the Nine Treasures Pagoda, it was as if he was going through tremendous torture. That kind of torture was not physical, but spiritual. It was even more unbearable, almost driving him crazy.
If not for Wang Teng's extraordinary willpower, he would have broken down in the face of such pain.
This was also why no one had successfully cultivated the Pagoda Sutra. It was because condensing the Nine Treasures Pagoda was too difficult.
It was simply not something a human could do.
Moreover, the Nine Treasures Pagoda that Wang Teng condensed had many "ingredients" that others did not have. For example, the Heavenly Flame, the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, the Origin Power, the Fire Deity Hammer, the Thunder Deity Hammer, and so on. These were all methods that ordinary warriors could not master.
This was like using the best materials, the best forging tools, and the best flames to forge a weapon. The process was naturally very difficult, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to master it.
Fortunately, the result of the forging was also very satisfactory!
This newly condensed Nine Treasures Pagoda was at least ten times sturdier than before. It had no problem withstanding the spiritual attacks of a Sector Lord spirit reader master.
Wang Teng was extremely satisfied with the Nine Treasures Pagoda that he had forged. He nodded to himself. With this Nine Treasures Pagoda, his spiritual body would receive the greatest protection.
It was extremely rare to encounter an Undying being who didn't respect their elders and personally took action. Some Universe level fighters might not even encounter such a thing in their entire lives. To be able to encounter one this time was countless times "luckier" than winning the grand prize of 10,000 primal chaos coins.
It could only be said that Old Monster Hui was too shameless. He did not care about the dignity of a master at all. If it were any other Immortal level Venerable, they would not have personally attacked Wang Teng.
However, Wang Teng did not think about how monstrous his performance was that even an Immortal level Venerable could not help but personally take action.
"It's time to go out. I wonder how the Five Burial Stars are now." Wang Teng took a pill, and his face immediately became rosy. He stood up and asked, "Yuan Gungun, how many days have I been in seclusion?"
"Thirteen days!" Yuan Gungun said.
It had been thirteen days since Wang Teng went into seclusion. During these few days, Yuan Gungun was bored to death. It did not say a word, for fear of disturbing Wang Teng's recuperation.
"It's been thirteen days!" Wang Teng was a little surprised. The seclusion this time was not short. He rarely went into seclusion for such a long time.
"Why don't you take a look at how serious your injuries are this time? I almost thought you were going to die," Yuan Gungun said grumpily.
"Calm down! Calm down! Haven't you heard of the saying, 'Good people don't live long, but scourges live for a thousand years'? People like me are destined to live longer than anyone else, "Wang Teng said with a smile.
"…" Yuan Gungun was speechless.
Scourges live for a thousand years?
Yuan Gungun did not know whether to say that Wang Teng was thick-skinned or that he was self-aware and knew that he was a scourge.
"You should take it easy in the future. If you encounter an immortal rank existence, don't be so stubborn. It's not shameful to admit defeat."
In the end, Yuan Gungun sighed and could not help but say this.
"When it's time to admit defeat, I will. After all, I'm so afraid of death. But this time, it's obvious that admitting defeat will not solve the problem. The other party wanted to kill me from the beginning. Even if I admit defeat, it's useless." Wang Teng shook his head with a serious expression.
"The Black Mountain Royal Family is a peak race in the universe. I didn't expect them to be so shameless." Yuan Gungun also knew this. He was very angry and could not help but curse, "So narrow-minded. I might as well curse their descendants to have no assholes."
"Pfft!" Wang Teng almost burst out laughing.
Their descendants to have no assholes? This curse was really a little derogatory.
"Don't worry. I'll settle this score with them sooner or later," Wang Teng said.
Yuan Gungun heard this and could not help but hesitate. He originally wanted to say that they could not afford to offend the Black Mountain Royal Family, but when he saw Wang Teng's expression, he knew that it was useless to persuade him. He did not say anything else.
Moreover, it was really infuriating. The other party had gone too far. Even he could not stand it.
In fact, with Wang Teng's monstrous level, it was not impossible for him to go head to head with the Black Mountain Royal Family in the future.
"By the way, something strange happened while you were in seclusion."
At this time, Yuan Gungun suddenly thought of something and quickly said.
"What happened?" Wang Teng's expression returned to normal as he asked curiously.
"A fleet of the Black Skeleton Galactic Bandit Gang was destroyed. Someone found the wreckage of their spaceship in the universe. Based on the distance, I estimate that it was the fleet that left Planet Five Burial," Yuan Gungun said.
"What?!" Wang Teng could not help but be taken aback. He found it hard to believe, "Is that true?"
"Of course it's true. Many people found the wreckage of the fleet with the unique symbol of the Black Skeleton Galactic Bandit Gang on it. And … Forget it, you'd better take a look at it yourself. You'll know whether it's true or not after seeing it," Yuan Gungun said, shaking his head and waving his small hand.
A light curtain emerged. It was a starry sky picture, which appeared very clearly in front of Wang Teng.
"This scene …" Wang Teng's pupils suddenly shrank.
As he saw, this scene was even more terrible than the ruins caused by Old Monster Hun's attack on Planet Five Burial.
What happened to that starry sky?
"Isn't it strange?" Yuan Gungun said with a smile.
"Is this the work of an existence above the Immortal level?" Wang Teng was shocked and said suspiciously.
"I guess so," Yuan Gungun said, "If it's true, then Old Monster Hun is probably dead."
"This …" Wang Teng was a little stunned and said, "It shouldn't be. How can an Immortal-level Venerable die so easily?"
"That's hard to say. We can't guess the means of a True God. Although Immortal-level Venerables are said to be indestructible, if a True God attacks them personally, they will also be obliterated," Yuan Gungun said.
"Damn it. If he's dead, where can I find someone to take revenge on?" Wang Teng suddenly shouted.
"Isn't it good to have one less Immortal-level Venerable enemy?" Yuan Gungun was speechless.
"What's good about it? How can it be better to take revenge on others than to take revenge on my own?" Wang Teng shook his head and said.
"That's enough. Quit while you're ahead. If Old Monster Hun appears in front of you again, you'll run away faster than anyone else," Yuan Gungun said grumpily.
"…" Wang Teng was speechless.
Life is hard, don't expose me!
Can't we just get along well with each other?
"But who did it?" Yuan Gungun touched his chin, looking very curious.
Wang Teng also touched his chin. The two of them looked at each other, unable to understand. Their heads were full of question marks.
"Forget it. Let's not think about it. Maybe it's someone's enemy." Yuan Gungun thought for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out who it was. He could only shake his head helplessly and say, "There's another thing. Yes, it's also a good thing. You're famous!"
"I'm famous? Famous for what?" Wang Teng was stunned again and asked.
"Now the whole Phantom Territory probably knows your name. Don't you think you're famous?" Yuan Gungun smiled and said, "The Virtual Universe Company has spread your deeds on Five Burial Star. Many people know that you killed a Sector Lord level Venerable, then took a hit from an Immortal-level Venerable, and even forced him to compensate and apologize."
"That's not a good thing!" Wang Teng's expression was serious as he shook his head and said, "The more people know about my methods, the worse it'll be for me."
Yuan Gungun was stunned, after which his expression became serious as well.
"I'm only a Universe level fighter, but they know that I can kill a Sector Lord level fighter, and even take a hit from an Immortal-level Venerable. If they want to deal with me in the future, they'll definitely send out even stronger fighters." Wang Teng said.
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much. As long as you don't offend those strong enemies, they won't make a move on you." Yuan Gungun couldn't help but comfort him, "And with your current strength, others can't wait to be wary of you. With your monstrous talent, many people think highly of you and want to befriend you. This way, you'll have more friends than enemies. The benefits outweigh the disadvantages."
"What you said makes sense, but it's too troublesome. I prefer to keep a low profile and grow." Wang Teng said.
"You keep a low profile?" Yuan Gungun was speechless and said, "No one is more high-profile than you, okay?"
"Cough cough!" Wang Teng couldn't help but cough dryly, "I'm forced to keep a high profile."
Yuan Gungun rolled his eyes and said, "Actually, every powerful prodigy in the past has experienced such things. For example, those prodigies who have made it onto the Stars Ranking have also been repeatedly publicized. Every time, their backgrounds have been thoroughly investigated. However, those prodigies always have endless tricks up their sleeves. In the end, they'll defeat all their enemies and stand at the peak."
"To be able to do this, only then can one be considered a true peerless prodigy!"
"A peerless prodigy!" Wang Teng muttered to himself. A glint flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Forget it. Since things have come to this, I can only take one step at a time."
Yuan Gungun saw his expression and knew that he was definitely tempted. No one could refuse the title of "peerless prodigy". With Wang Teng's talent, it was even more impossible for him to refuse. Moreover, what it said was true. Those prodigies who had made it onto the Stars Ranking had all killed their way there. No one could hide from becoming stronger.
Wang Teng wasn't in a hurry to leave. He was injured earlier, and there were still many bloodstains on his body. At this moment, he walked into the bathroom and took a shower first. After washing off the blood and sweat on his body, he immediately felt refreshed.
Another fragrant and handsome young man!
"Let's go out and take a look. The people from Five Burial Stars should be waiting anxiously." Wang Teng smiled, opened the door, and walked out.
Just as he arrived at the hall, Izang Xinnuo and Burial Guardian Cai Yun heard the news and came over.
"Big Brother Wang Teng, you've finally come out of seclusion. How's your recovery?" Izang Xinnuo immediately asked with concern when he saw Wang Teng.
"I've already fully recovered. Don't worry." Wang Teng smiled faintly.
"That's good!" Yizang Xinnuo sized up Wang Teng and heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he was astonished. Wang Teng's injuries had healed completely in less than ten days. How strong was his Brother Wang Teng's physical body? No wonder he could withstand the attack of an immortal-stage Lord.
"Your body is very good." Burial Guardian Cai Yun had obviously thought of this as well. However, her thoughts soon went astray. Her beautiful eyes swept across Wang Teng's chest as she giggled.
"…" Izang Xinnuo.
"…" Wang Teng: "Why do I feel like her tone is a little strange?"
"Pfft, Wang Teng, she wants to sleep with you." Yuan Gungun burst out in laughter.
"…" Wang Teng.
'This is a female pervert!'
'And this Yuan Gungun, he's getting dirtier and dirtier. He doesn't even hesitate to say such vulgar words.'
'Where did that pure artificial intelligence go?'
Izang Xinnuo glared at Burial Guardian Cai Yun with a slightly red face. He quickly changed the topic and said, "Big Brother Wang Teng, the ancestors said that if you wake up, they hope to talk to you."
"Sure." Wang Teng wasn't surprised. He smiled in his heart and nodded. He directly asked, "Where do you want to meet them?"
"They'll come personally." Izang Xinnuo said, "I'll inform them."
As he said that, he opened his intelligent wristwatch in front of Wang Teng and informed the ancestors of the Wuzang clan.
Wang Teng nodded in his heart.
Izang Xinnuo's way of doing things made him feel extremely comfortable. He asked first, and after getting their permission, he informed the ancestors of the Wuzang clan, giving him enough respect.
Although it was just a small detail, the more detailed it was, the more it made people think highly of him.
In addition, the Wuzang clan also gave him enough respect. When he heard that the Wuzang clan's Immortal rank ancestors wanted to meet him, he should be the one to meet them. He didn't expect them to come personally.
This attitude surprised Wang Teng.
"Wang Teng, it seems like your plan succeeded," Yuan Gungun said.
"Mm!" Wang Teng smiled in his heart. It seemed like it had succeeded, and the effect was surprisingly good.
He thanked the Black Mountain Royal Family again.
The ancestors of the Wuzang clan, as well as the patriarchs, soon arrived at Izang Xinnuo's manor.
When an old man saw Wang Teng, a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes, and he said with a smile, "Councilman Wang Teng, it seems like you've recovered well. We're relieved."
"Thank you for your concern, seniors. I'm fine now," Wang Teng said with a smile.
"Councilman Wang Teng's talent is truly astonishing. Our Wuzang clan's geniuses are far too lacking," another Immortal rank ancestor praised.
In Horizontal Burial Desert, Gui Zang Yan and the others had also arrived. When they heard the ancestor's words, they couldn't help but glance at Wang Teng. Their expressions were complicated, but there was no hint of dissatisfaction.
Now that they saw Wang Teng, they couldn't even think of comparing themselves to him.
This guy was a monster, and they couldn't compare themselves to a monster.
"Seniors, you flatter me!" Wang Teng hurriedly said modestly.
As they spoke, the ancestors invited Wang Teng to sit down. The atmosphere was quite harmonious, and it was impossible to tell how much they disliked Wang Teng.
"Councilman Wang Teng, let me introduce you. These are the Immortal rank ancestors of our Wuzang clan. This is …" Heng Zang Chuan glanced at Wang Teng with a complicated expression and began to introduce him.
Wang Teng also learned the names of these Immortal rank powerhouses of the Wuzang clan.
Generally speaking, a Universe-level martial artist like him didn't have the right to know the names of Immortal rank powerhouses.
However, his identity was too special, and he was indebted to the Wuzang clan, so he had the right to know.
In addition, these Immortal rank powerhouses of the Wuzang clan also thought highly of Wang Teng. They thought highly of his talent and strength, so they didn't mind telling their names to Wang Teng.
After the introductions, everyone began to talk about serious matters.
"Councilman Wang Teng, do you know about the destruction of the Black Skull Pirates' fleet?" Heng Zang Bo, the ancestor of the Wuzang clan, asked.
When he asked this question, his gaze was fixed on Wang Teng's face, as if he wanted to see something.
The others also looked at him strangely. It was impossible to tell what their expressions meant.
"I've heard." Wang Teng nodded.
"That's it? You don't have any opinions on this? "Heng Zang Bo was a bit surprised and asked suspiciously.
"Opinions?" Wang Teng was a bit puzzled. He asked, "What opinions can I have?"
"Uh …" Heng Zang Bo looked at Wang Teng and was a bit stunned. He couldn't tell whether Wang Teng was real or not.
"It's not like I don't have opinions." Wang Teng stroked his chin and said seriously, "That Black Skull Pirates really aren't good people. They're too arrogant. It's only a matter of time before they're destroyed, so it's better to keep a low profile and be honest."
"Hiss!" Everyone immediately sucked in a cold breath.
