Chapter 146: Chapter 145: Calm Days! (Please subscribe!)

In the midst of the outer galaxy, a tear in space suddenly appeared from which a figure fell.

This was Hong Chong, drenched in blood and broken, but still alive.

“Damn, how could he be so strong!”

He was surprised, not expecting the Ancient God to be so strong, to inflict such heavy wounds on him.

“Return first!”

Quickly, from the quantum space, he pulled out a spaceship. After boarding, he immediately jumped and left.

Space station outside Earth.

Although Chu Zixuan and the others did not dare to venture into their battleground, they had enough detection equipment.

Upon discovering the victorious battle, he immediately announced the result to the public. He then flew towards Du Gang’s direction. Suddenly, the two sides met near the moon.

“Du Gang, well done!”

Chu Zixuan was very excited, moving forward to embrace Du Gang.

“You saved Earth! You saved Earth!”

Du Gang smiled faintly, saying, “Whether the root is there or not, does the leaf still have vitality?”

After all, Earth was the place that nurtured him, how could he watch it be destroyed by others!

“Let’s go, let’s go back!”

Soon, the spaceships of both of them returned to the Earth Alliance

Headquarters.

Just as Chu Zixuan is about to recall the young talents who has left the cosmos, Du Gang stops him. “Don’t rush, there’s a Planet Level guy who escaped!” “What? Planet Level?”

Chu Zixuan’s eyes widened, his face couldn’t believe it.

He really didn’t know, he always thought that the person Du Gang was fighting was the Tuoba family.

Du Gang shook his head, “The Duke of the Hidden Dragon Kingdom, Hong

Chong, he is the leader of their group, I let him escape….”

“However, luckily, the Tuoba family is completely finished!”

Including Tuoba Hong, their family’s tens of thousands of warships, and all the powerful warriors above Purple Level, all exploded in that fireworks display.

Chu Zixuan’s eyes brightened immediately, and he said, “Du Gang, I want to secretly tell this news to my father-in-law. He has a trading firm in the Purple Orchid Kingdom. If he can act in advance, he can take over a large industry from the Tuoba family…..”

For such matters, he must discuss with Du Gang. After all, he is now the strongest person on Earth.

Du Gang looked at Madame Merlin standing next to Chu Zixuan, nodded, and laughed, “Go ahead!”

In the Purple Orchid Kingdom, upon receiving the news, Marquis Merlin immediately mobilized and started quietly devouring the Tuoba family’s industry.

At the same time, his heart kept marveling at how he had found such a good son-in-law.

“What are your plans for the future?” After dealing with the main issues, Chu Zixuan asked while looking at Du Gang.

“I will stay on Earth for a while. Hong Chong escaped and hasn’t surfaced yet, I need to find a way to eliminate him, then I can feel relieved to leave Earth.”

He will definitely venture into the cosmos, but he will not leave irresponsibly. Instead, he will ensure that everything is handled before he feels at ease to leave.

So he asked Baralala to infiltrate the network of the Purple Orchid Kingdom and the Hidden Dragon Kingdom and start looking for traces of Hong Chong.

Upon knowing he would stay for a while, Chu Zixuan immediately arranged a luxurious sea-view villa for Du Gang to reside in.

“That guy Hong Chong, either he is drifting in the desolate cosmos, or he is on some spaceship and has never gone down!”

Baralala pouted unhappily, “Only when he is on a spaceship, I cannot invade.

Otherwise, as long as he shows up, I will definitely know…..”

The communication system on the spaceship runs independently, equally it’s also not easy to invade, hence she could only wait for Hong Chong to surface. Du Gang smiled and said, “No problem, take your time searching, I’ll take this time to practice the Ancient God Technique!”

In the five years of Life Space, he solely focused on improving the martial knowledge and basics he had never learned before.

It turned out he hadn’t really practiced the Ancient God Technique much. Returning to the quiet room, he sat cross-legged and started to comprehend the Ancient God Technique.

The Ancient God Technique, a completely pure cultivation method.

It’s primarily divided into two parts, the first part is to absorb Star Power and various resources, then enhancing physical strength, increasing physique.

You know, in the vast universe, the scarcest is not Star Power, nor the various resources, but the talents with good aptitudes!

How many people, because of their lack of talent, ultimately die gloomily.

For those real major families in the universe, which family doesn’t lack resources?

Yet they still nurture their descendants according to the level of their talent.

Because some people, even if you give them resources, still cannot break through the bottleneck.

The universe cultivation level is such that every leap in progress is like a period of dormancy.

Take the Tuoba family for example, with a total population exceeding a trillion. Despite this, they barely managed to produce a Satellite-level powerhouse.

You must know that in each generation of their family, at least a hundred of the most excellent descendants are provided with unlimited resources. Yet, how many of them actually became Satellite-level powerhouses?

Just one person, Tuoba Hong, emerged after dozens of generations!

The situation is almost the same with other families. They have large populations and provide unlimited resources to the best individuals, but the results are similar.

This goes to show that talent is more important than resources!

Those like the Tuoba family have what can be considered as a type of resource.

In reality though, in the Waste Star Region, the population had long surpassed a trillion. But how many naturally born powerhouses are there?

In thousands of years, Zeus was pretty much the only one who naturally became a Comet-level powerhouse.

Du Gang was an exception, not a powerhouse born within a normal star region.

From this, one can see the extraordinariness of the Ancient God Technique.

Having the Ancient God Technique and the inheritance of the Ancient Gods, an Ancient God can break through cultivation levels crazily under the condition of possessing resources!

Though this may consume a vast amount of resources which not many entities can supply, it’s still quite terrifying!

As for the first part of the Ancient God Technique, Du Gang hasn’t researched deeply as there’s not much to delve into.

His attention is mainly focused on the second part – the power of the Ancient Gods.

Apart from allowing the Ancient God to grow continuously and enabling them to break through the Ninth Rank without any bottleneck, the Ancient God Technique also provides the power of the Ancient God.

The power of the Ancient God is a more advanced form of energy than Star Power. Its main function is to perfectly release the power brought about by the Ancient God’s massive figure.

Moreover, the quantity of the Ancient God’s power is impressive!

Ordinary cultivators have a limited amount of Star Power that their bodies can store. For example, a Planet-level cultivator, who wants to perform a move that can destroy a planet, can only do it once as their internal Star Power can only sustain tnat single strike.

But it’s different for an Ancient God. Due to their massive size, the amount of Ancient God Power they can carry and generate is vast. With the same power, others can only use it once, but an Ancient God can use it hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of times!

Through researching the Ancient God Technique, Du Gang discovered a strange problem.

That is, according to the Ancient God Technique, an Ancient God can open up a whirlpool in his body to store the Power of the Ancient God.

However, through observing the memories of other Ancient Gods, he found that they did not open such a whirlpool in their bodies.

“What does this mean? Is it because there’s so much Ancient God’s Power inside each Ancient God that they’re too lazy to cultivate the whirlpool?”

Du Gang frowned, feeling that this possibility was both extremely likely and unlikely. After all, his father Du Kang also behaved like this, using the Sky-breaking Strike until his death.

But while it seems unlikely, it’s also not improbable. After all, cultivating a whirlpool is a way of enhancing one’s strength. Wouldn’t the Ancient Gods want to increase their power?

According to the Ancient God Technique, a Rank One Ancient God can cultivate eighteen whirlpools.

A Second Rank Ancient God can cultivate one hundred and eight whirlpools.

A Third Rank Ancient God can cultivate one thousand and eight whirlpools.

A Fourth Rank Ancient God can cultivate ten thousand and eight whirlpools.

As for why there’s an eight behind the number of whirlpools, Du Gang didn’t know. But what caught his attention was why other Ancient Gods didn’t cultivate whirlpools.

This time, Du Gang didn’t rashly cultivate the whirlpool. Instead, he entered the inheritance memory space and began his search.

First was Du Kang. After careful inspection, he confirmed that Du Kang did not cultivate the whirlpool.

This is because, for Ancient Gods who cultivate whirlpools, their bodies’ acupoints would exhibit anomalies, which could easily be identified.

Next, he scrutinised the memories of a dozen or so Ancient Gods. Just like Du Kang, they didn’t cultivate whirlpools.

Finally, when he came across the memory of the Ancient God who created the Spear and Lance Nine Kills, he found that this Ancient God had cultivated the whirlpool.

“What’s going on? Why didn’t the others cultivate it, and yet he did?”

As he continued checking, Du Gang discovered that all the Ancient Gods before this one had cultivated whirlpools, while those who came after did not! “Could it be that the current Ancient Gods are unable to cultivate whirlpools?” Apart from this, he also surprisingly discovered a peculiar phenomenon.

That is, when he was exploring the memories of these Ancient Gods, he could only explore their memories before the Fourth Rank.

He couldn’t find any memories from Rank Five and above.

“Is it because my rank isn’t high enough, and they’ve been automatically sealed?”

He could only guess that way because if one Ancient God exhibited such, it could be considered an anomaly. However, if all Ancient Gods did, it has to be related to his inadequate cultivation level.

On this matter, he did not dwell too much. The main problem he needed to ponder now was whether to cultivate the whirlpool or not.

“Why did all the successors stop cultivating the whirlpool after that powerful Ancient God?”

Unfortunately, although there were many Ancient Gods’ memories in the inheritance memory space, they were only fragments and the visible information was limited.

Du Gang pondered for a while, “Could it be because the times have changed,

leading to the later Ancient Gods being unable to cultivate the whirlpool?”

With this question in mind, he carefully observed the memories of two Ancient Gods from different eras but didn’t find much correlation.

Furthermore, he also visited the secret area of ancient books and scriptures to look for possible explanations.

He still had nothing to guide him, nothing in the manuals that could explain the difference between practicing and not practicing whirlpool cultivation.

“To practice or not to practice?!”

Du Gang hesitated, “The Ancient God Technique does have instructions on whirlpool cultivation, which indicates that it should be practiced…”

“But the Ancient Gods from the past ten or so generations did not cultivate the whirlpool technique—there must be something fishy going on!”

After much hesitation, he decided not to cultivate the whirlpool and simply continued his regular training.

Back in his Life Space, he had felt that the third layer of the Ancient God Technique had reached its limit and that it seemed like it could enter the fourth layer at any time.

Having some spare time now, he should seize the moment and try to break through to the fourth layer soon.

One year later.

In a meteorite cluster outside the solar system, a man was sitting cross-legged, covered in a layer of dust. He didn’t seem to care and kept his eyes closed, his faintly pulsating heartbeat the only proof that he was still alive. Otherwise, anyone would think he was dead.

Suddenly, the man’s body trembled slightly, and his eyelashes also began to move.

The next second, he abruptly opened his eyes.

“Exhale!”

He slowly blew out a breath of air.

“Finally, I have fully recovered…”

This man was Hong Chong, who was injuried by Du Gang a year ago. He had thought about going back to the Hidden Dragon Kingdom, but remembering the high rank of Du Gang’s spaceship, he realized Du Gang could easily find him.

Considering the high level of artificial intelligence on the spaceship which could hack into the network and find him…

With that thought, he returned to the solar system and started his healing process amongst a pile of meteorites.

After a year of healing, finally, all his wounds were healed, and his body fully recovered to its original state.

“Can I, as of now, still beat the Ancient God by myself?”

Hong Chong wasn’t recklessly angry this time, but instead started to analyze the situation calmly.

He thought carefully about what he possessed and what trump cards he could bring to bear.

After thinking for a long time, he shook his head: “I cannot beat him alone!” “If that’s the case, I need to gather some allies!”

Next, he began calculating who he should enlist and who would be a suitable choice.

The ruler of the Hidden Dragon Kingdom was the first to be ruled out.

Asking the kingdom ruler to join him would be the equivalent to handing over his own fate. That’s what happened when he planned to get rid of Tuoba Hong.

Therefore, he began contemplating which planet-level powerhouse he should ally himself with.

He knew about a dozen planet-level powerhouses.

In addition to the other thirty thousand planet-level powerhouses in the Hidden Dragon Kingdom, he was also familiar with a few planet-level powerhouses from other kingdoms not far from the Hidden Dragon Kingdom.

“First, I have to determine how many planet-level powerhouses it would take to deal with the Ancient God…”

After careful calculations, he concluded that the attack that injured him, called out by the Ancient God as a “Stored-force strike”, must have been his secret weapon, and it could only be used once.

So, he needed at least two planet-level powerhouses…

“However, to be safe, I’ll ask for three planet-level powerhouses…” After deciding on the quantity, he started contemplating specific candidates.

The planet-level powerhouses within the kingdom were the first to be ruled out.

It would be possible without him, but if another one was missing, it would raise suspicions.

If stellar-level powerhouses got involved, he would have no part in it!

“The ruler of Purple Orchid would be a good choice. That old guy’s life is in its twilight and he’s easy to deceive…”

“As for the other… it should also be a ruler of a Duchy…”

After pondering for a while, his eyes lit up. “I got it. He has strong defense ability and will be perfect to take the lead…”

After much thought, Hong Chong decided on his choices—Zilan Norton was one, and the other was the old turtle of the Immortal Tortoise Duchy.

He is called an old turtle not because he is not a human, but because the Immortal Tortoise Duchy is a nation that worships turtles as its totem. The ruler’s clan focuses on cultivating the turtle shell for defense.

“So, it’s settled!”

Hong Chong immediately got up. “But now that the enemy knows about me and I don’t know about them, I should secretly contact them and then try to set up a trap, pretending to be exposed and let him think I’m the only one…”

Earth.

After a year of cultivation, Du Gang successfully broke through to the fourth level of the Ancient God Technique!

This means that the Ancient God’s body, spirit, and power have all reached Fourth Rank.

This implies that from then on, he is a complete Ancient God.

It’s time to start considering the breakthrough to Rank Five.

Of course, it’s a long-term concern. According to Balala’s words, the energy required for a breakthrough is enormous!

Besides that, he has learnt nine out of the eighty-one steps in “Skyward Nine Transformations”. Only seventy-two steps left, and he will have succeeded in mastering the first transformation.

Another gain was the second kill in “Spear and Lance Nine Kills”, which he mastered during this time period.

One day, when immersed in thoughts about cultivation, Chu Zixuan paid him a visit.

“Du Gang, my wife gave birth, a chubby little boy. You must come to the full moon banquet!”

Chu Zixuan was beaming as he handed Du Gang an invitation. Over the past year, his stomach had become somewhat rounded; he had put on a bit of weight.

Du Gang received the invitation with a smile, saying: “Alright, I’ll surely attend the full moon banquet!”

Having said that, seeing that Chu Zixuan did not leave, Du Gang asked puzzledly: “Is there anything else?”

Chu Zixuan rubbed his hands together and said: “Du Gang, I came to ask if your intelligence system has found Hong Chong?”

At this moment, Balala, hearing someone discussing it, immediately came out running.

“That guy is holed up somewhere. He’s either always in the spaceship, or he has never returned!”

Seeing this, Chu Zixuan hesitated for a moment and continued: “I actually want to go to the Purple Orchid Commonwealth..

“I am already at the Comet-level. This is enough to apply for a Marquis position there. Like I said before, I want to have an additional safety net for the Earth Civilization…

“Besides, on Earth, I have already cultivated a new Meteorite-level and have been consciously teaching him to handle governmental affairs over the years…”

Chu Zixuan’s year had indeed been good. His father-in-law, Marquis Merlin, had absorbed many of the Tuoba family’s properties having received prior information.

The other three dukes had their objections, but they dared not express them.

Tuoba Hong had died at the hands of the Earth Civilization and yet his daughter’s husband was the leader of the Earth Civilization and a friend of the giant of Satellite-class, who would dare provoke them?

As a result, Marquis Merlin reciprocated by providing substantial resources to

Chu Zixuan’s side, and both he and his wife were promoted to the Comet-level.

So, he now had the idea of starting a business in the Purple Orchid Commonwealth.

Managing a planet and starting a Chu family kingdom in the Purple Orchid Commonwealth, clearly, the latter held more appeal.

Du Gang shook his head, “No, as long as Hong Chong lives, no one can leave Earth!”

He did not want to guard here for a year and then be tricked by Hong Chong, leading to the destruction of the Earth Civilization.

He imagined that Hong Chong’s revenge must have something to do with Earth.

Moreover, he could afford to wait!

He was only seventeen this year, and Ancient Gods naturally had a longer lifespan than ordinary cosmic humans.

Plus, he had so many Green Bud Fruits that he could live for hundreds of millions of years!

Of course, he would not stay here that long. Earth would fall into the entropy realm in another 15,000 years or so, meaning he could stay for at most 10,000 years.

However, he knew they wouldn’t stay here that long because Hong Chong’s lifespan was surely shorter than his own. He couldn’t possibly wait that long!

Upon hearing Du Gang’s rejection, Chu Zixuan’s face showed disappointment. However, he wasn’t too upset as he had anticipated this. After some thought, he added:

“Du Gang, there have been quite a few invitations from the other three Dukes and several Marquis powers from the Purple Orchid Commonwealth. Do you want to respond?”

Since Du Gang annihilated the entire Tuoba family fleet not far from Earth, the attitude of the Purple Orchid Star Domain towards him had become extremely ambiguous.

Joking and humorous videos about the war god that had originally inundated the airwaves were quickly and thoroughly wiped clean.

Who dared to satirize a giant who could annihilate the Tuoba family?

The entire Purple Orchid Star Domain was treating Du Gang with the utmost politeness.

Given that he had been staying on Earth, which was located in the Wasteland Star Domain, everyone was disinclined to harbor any ill will towards him. Du Gang shook his head and said: “No need…’

Chu Zixuan added: “Uhm, one of them is from the Cosmic Civilization

Protection Association of the Purple Orchid side. They say they want to award

Earth Civilization a fourth-level civilization certificate…”

Even though he knew Du Gang was at the planet-level which was enough to bring Earth to the status of Fifth Level Civilization.

But he knew Du Gang didn’t desire this and would certainly leave in the future. Plus, given Du Gang’s request for low-key behavior, he didn’t say anything unnecessary. The outside world only believed Du Gang was Satellite-level in power.

Seeing that Du Gang didn’t outright refuse but was instead contemplating, Chu Zixuan quickly said: “Du Gang, a Level Four Civilization certificate is more valuable than a Level Three. This means that we can buy more things…”

“You know, there are grade restrictions everywhere in the universe, and we are limited in buying more advanced technological products…”

“Even when you leave, supported by me and Merlin, Earth Civilization as a Fourth Level Civilization could still hold up…”

“Moreover, who knows, I might breakthrough to the Satellite-level within a century?”

After hearing him out, Du Gang finally nodded, saying: “Alright, in that case, I’ll collect that Fourth Level certificate!”

All his worries were dependent on the situation that Hong Chong might seize an opportunity to infiltrate. If it was just him leaving Earth then of course there was no issue, it would only take running one errant.

A Fourth Level Civilization certificate was different from a Third Level one, as the person in question had to go to a Fourth Level Civilization nation to collect it. Simultaneously, there would be a peer waiting there to exchange words with him. This was a kind of tradition, considered to be a form of high-level social interaction.

Just as Chu Zixuan was about to jump with joy, Balala suddenly came running out, excitedly saying: “Du Gang, I found out where Hong Chong is!”
