Cosmic Professional Gladiator - Chapter 592

592 Corruption

A black spire 12.7 light-years tall floated in a sealed and protected area of space in Void Celestial territory.

Whoosh.

A purple-robed man arrived at one of the doors at the bottom of the black spire and flew in without any obstructions.

There were two ancient guards standing before a colorful corridor. They wore armor that exuded terrifying auras, but the interior of the armor was a ball of mist.

They had guarded this place for billions of years. Ever since they were created by the Void Celestial’s greatest Progenitor, Gumo, they had guarded this place loyally.

The two guards saw the purple-robed man and greeted, “Hall Master Tutenmu.”

The purple-robed man nodded and continued walking in.

As one of the three cosmic legends who had broken through using the five legacies, Tutenmu naturally enjoyed an extremely high status, second only to the high-dimensional lifeforms in his species.

The black spire was heavily guarded and contained many secrets of the Void Celestials. Tutenmu spent more than an hour inside before finally arriving at a huge hall.

The hall was empty.

Tutenmu walked to the center of the hall and said, “Ambassador Vicar, have you gained anything from my 19 experimental subjects in the past thousand years?”

“Hall Master Tutenmu, of your 19 test subjects, there has only been a breakthrough with the Vandoya’s Coslupis. It’s estimated that he will break through and become a cosmic legend in 10,000 years.” A mighty voice echoed in the hall.

Tutenmu revealed a look of delight. “He’s about to become a cosmic legend? Good! I need to experience his path.”

“As you wish.”

Endless starlight spread out.

Whoosh.

In the endless starlight, he instantly locked onto one of the weak lifeformsit was the peerless genius of the cosmic Vandoya species, Coslupis.

Whoosh!

It was a dark cosmic prison where the thin Coslupis was imprisoned.

“You will clearly experience everything he has experienced in the past thousand years.” A mighty voice sounded.

In an instant, time flowed forward.

Ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years!

Tutenmu instantly traced back to a temporal point 1,000 years ago. It was as if he had possessed Coslupis and quickly sensed everything he had experienced.

Coslupis’s sorrow, madness, and explosive desire to destroy

Occasionally, when he calmed down, Coslupis would crazily draw one painting after another.

How impressive. When he drew the last painting, Tutenmu was surprised. As expected of a genius who reached the limit of Lv. 10 in slightly over a thousand years. After he was corrupted and degenerated, he slaughtered all the lifeforms in his surroundings under the influence of his desire to destroy, including all the lifeforms in his homeworld When he woke up, the pain and frustration of destroying his homeworld’s kinsman made him turn even more depraved. He even begged the Paramount of his species to imprison him.

I thought his experimental product would contribute very little. Who would’ve thought that he would give me such a huge surprise after over 50,000 years of self-imprisonment? Tutenmu looked at the painting. Unfortunately, although Ambassador Vicar’s high-dimensional observation can see through almost all low-dimensional lifeforms, it’s limited to emotional fluctuations, thought fluctuations, and the various means available to him. As for what he’s thinking I can’t truly observe it in depth.

The gains from this possession can only be considered 60% effective. Tutenmu smiled.

But this painting Tutenmu looked at the final painting and was infatuated. This is a painting that leads to becoming a cosmic legend. I gained a lot from possessing it and painting it myself.

After all, he had the second volume of the complete legacy! The second volume contained the basics and information regarding Firstborn realm high-dimensional lifeforms. A complete legacy made it easier for him to draw on the insights of these ‘corrupted test subjects.’

The test subjects’ insights were very scattered and not systematic, but they still comprehended a lot because of their outstanding talent.

Whoosh.

After the possession ended, Tutenmu was in an excellent mood.

“Ambassador Vicar, please inform me immediately if Coslupis becomes a cosmic legend,” Tutenmu said.

“Alright,” the mighty voice replied. “Hall Master Tutenmu, of your 19 test subjects, the Cayons’ Nadeli chose to commit suicide! Moreover, he requested that the species not revive him.”

“Suicide?” Tutenmu frowned. “This piece of trash actually committed suicide after 30,000 years of madness? He doesn’t want revenge? What a piece of trash.”

He chose genius powerhouses from every species in the universe. Typically, they had extremely strong minds and wills. Even if they were corrupted, they wouldn’t easily commit suicide and give up.

“He probably wouldn’t have achieved anything if he chose suicide so easily,” Tutenmu said. “Ambassador Vicar, please pay attention to the human race’s Wu Ming.”

“Oh? Human Wu Ming’s talent should be the most dazzling in this universe. Are you planning on making him a test subject?” Ambassador Vicar was intrigued.

“Yes.” Tutenmu nodded.

“Alright, I’ll pay attention to him.” Ambassador Vicar’s voice echoed.

Tutenmu quickly left the hall.

In a treasure vault.

Tutenmu walked in.

“I want to exchange for Treasure #92,” Tutenmu said as he stood in the treasure vault.

“Treasure #92 requires one’s mind to reach high-dimensional when using it. Moreover, one needs to gain basic mastery of the five legacies, Void Abyss.” A voice sounded from the treasury.

Tutenmu nodded. “I’m aware of that.”

“Wu Ming is very young, and his mind hasn’t reached high-dimensional. He also doesn’t have the Void Abyss legacy of our five legacies. However, I’m not helping him cultivate; I’m corrupting him.” Tutenmu looked forward to it.

“The exchange price is five billion credits,” the treasury’s voice said.

Tutenmu frowned slightly, but he still said, “Proceed.”

Even as one of the Void Celestials’ three cosmic legends, five billion credits still made him feel the pinch.

Soon, a transparent crystal ball descended from the void and appeared in front of Tutenmu. It vaguely contained a terrifying existence.

Tutenmu trembled in fear when he felt it.

Oh Wu Ming, the combined cost of all the other test subjects’ corruption is less than yours. Don’t disappoint me, Tutenmu thought to himself.

Tutenmu put away the transparent crystal ball and turned to leave.

******

Human dominion, Blue Swallow Cosmic Sector’s Lv. 10 Battle Planet #11.

The two team members drank and looked into the distance.

“What’s Captain doing alone?”

“He seems to be chatting with someone.”

“After Captain arrived, we won three consecutive matches. The Void Celestials have apparently given up on us in recent years; there hasn’t been a single battle.”

“Yeah, it doesn’t feel like we’re at the front lines but on vacation.”

The two team members felt that their days were quite comfortable. Although they were Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms, they had to serve according to the human race’s rules! Serving was a dangerous matter for most Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms. Although they were given compensation in the form of credits every year, a large amount was deducted once they died in battle due to their resurrection.

Therefore, collecting a fixed amount of credit without needing to fight every year was naturally a comfortable affair.

“The younger Void Celestials can’t do anything to Captain. With Captain’s growth speed, it won’t be long before the older Void Celestials can’t do anything to him.”

“Yes, Captain reached Lv. 10 at the age of 251 and reached the limit of Lv. 10 at the age of 300. His growth speed is indeed faster than Deputy Dean Redmond’s. Deputy Dean Redmond became a cosmic legend in 10,000 years. Captain will probably become a cosmic legend in 3,000 to 5,000 years!”

“For example, I’ve cultivated for more than 50,000 years, but I haven’t reached the limit of Lv. 10. I’m nothing when compared to Captain.”

“Sometimes, the gap between people is huge.”

The two team members sighed.

Xu Jingming sat at the edge of a fortress, and the projection in front of him was his daughter, Xu Lixing.

“See that?” Xu Jingming pointed around. “This is a Lv. 10 battle planet.”

“Wow.” Xu Lixing opened her eyes wide. “I heard that a group of Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms are stationed on a Lv. 10 battle planet. Black holes are nothing in front of it, and all kinds of high-dimensional powers can be unleashed. I can finally see what a Lv. 10 battle planet looks like today.”

“Actually, it’s nothing. It’s ordinary and desolate,” Xu Jingming remarked with a smile.

“It’s not ordinary.” Xu Lixing was excited when she saw this. “Dad, look. I can sense that it’s extraordinary from the material on the battle planet’s surface. No matter how much I magnify it, I can’t see any particles. The material is clearly densely woven.”

“They are all re-constructed matter at the Force level,” Xu Jingming said. “They are very stable. Coupled with the protective layer, they can withstand the clash of high-dimensional powers.”

Xu Lixing nodded. “Oh right, Dad, did you say that you can go back often in the future?”

“Yeah.” Xu Jingming nodded. “There hasn’t been a single battle at the front line. The Cosmic Human Alliance informed me that I can temporarily withdraw. I’ll join the battle again in a few centuries or millennia. Perhaps the Void Celestials will be willing to fight me then.”

He was already very free to begin with. Now, he was about to leave the Void Celestial battlefield completely.

“Dad, it’s time for you to get some rest. Ever since you became an Origin lifeform, you’ve been on the front line for more than 300 years,” Xu Lixing said. “You can relax more after leaving the battlefield, and your take on life will be different.”

“Even if I leave the Void Celestial battlefield, I still need to visit the Hellion battlefield occasionally,” Xu Jingming said.

“Yeah.” Xu Lixing nodded.

She also knew that her father was very special among the human race’s Origin lifeforms! Others could completely leave the battlefield, but her father couldn’t.

As the father and daughter chatted, a purple-robed man arrived hundreds of light-years away from Lv. 10 Battle Planet #11.

Wu Ming. The purple-robed man’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

With the Void Celestials’ tracking methods, as long as Wu Ming was in the universe, he couldn’t escape their pursuit no matter where he was.

There are many geniuses in the entire history of the universe, but Wu Ming is number one in this era. The purple-robed Tutenmu’s eyes were burning.

“Dad, I have an appointment in the virtual world. I’ll make a move first,” Xu Lixing said. “I’ll tell Mom about your return.”

The projection dissipated.

At this moment

The world in front of Xu Jingming changed.

The Lv. 10 battle planet and space disappeared, and a vast dark world appeared in front of Xu Jingming. This made his expression change drastically.

He had unknowingly fallen into an endless dark world; such means far exceeded his. He didn’t know that this was an existence whose strength was comparable to Deputy Dean Redmond’s, and his mind was extremely terrifying.

“Human Wu Ming, I’ll give you a precious gift.” A voice echoed throughout the dark world.

Pa!

It was as if something had shattered.

Then, Xu Jingming saw Him!

His figure was infinitely great. Even though he had seen the monster when he touched the patterned stone pillar, it was far inferior to one-billionth of the collapsed version.

He seemed to be the end of everything.

Past, present, future, all karma, all possibilities, all powers, and even everything in his knowledge ultimately ended with Him!

Even the black robe He wore and the darkness contained in it instantly drowned out the Primordial Star Xu Jingming knew.

Xu Jingming had visualized the Primordial Star for years, but his understanding of it instantly distorted, turning into a dark Primordial Star.

Everything was distorting.

Xu Jingming’s knowledge of the world, his knowledge of emotions, his knowledge of his species, his knowledge of everything was distorting. His mind and consciousness were also distorting as he approached Him.

This was a complete corruption! It was an infinite high-dimensional existence that corroded weak lifeforms.

Xu Jingming remained sitting there in a daze, motionless.

 

However, Primordial Battle Armor #9 was terrified. I can’t stop the external psychic attack. Master has completely lost consciousness.

Return!

Under the dangerous situation of Xu Jingming losing consciousness, Primordial Battle Armor #9 automatically activated its final moveReturn.

Whoosh!

The Primordial Battle Armor carried Xu Jingming and instantly left the Lv. 10 battle planet, returning to the distant Primordial Research Institute headquarters.
