First competition area.

On the sixteenth day of the competition, Xu Tian sought out Du Gang. Thankfully, Du Gang spotted him in advance and used his speed to escape. If he had allowed Xu Tian to get close, his life would have hung in the balance.

After all, based on the weights of their Domains, Xu Tian’s tri-layer Domain could ensnare Du Gang the moment they got close. Even if Du Gang used his Third Transformation, he might not be able to escape.

However, after days of killing, Xu Tian had accumulated enough advancement points and was no longer too afraid of Du Gang.

Regardless, the two seemed to have an unspoken agreement; they didn’t confront each other head-on and chose to go their separate ways.

On the seventeenth day, to Du Gang’s surprise, an alliance of Domain bearers sought him out.

They noticed Du Gang’s name and chose to leave, avoiding a battle with him.

By the twentieth day, all the solo entrants in the first competition area had been eliminated.

Only six power groups, all in locations not too distant from each other, remained.

These six forces were Du Gang, Xu Tian, a 44-person alliance of dual-layer Domain bearers, a 26-person dual-layer Domain alliance, an alliance of 82 single-layer Domain bearers, and an alliance of 108 single-layer Domain bearers.

Totaling 262 people, all except Du Gang and Xu Tian had joined alliances.

Finally, on the twenty-first day, the 44-person alliance attacked the

108-person alliance. Seeing this, Du Gang also commenced his sneak attack.

He didn’t care about the fight between the two groups, seizing any opportunity he could to kill someone. If pursued, he would withdraw.

On the other side, the 26-person alliance launched a surprise attack on the 82-person alliance, and just as they were in the heat of battle, Xu Tian appeared.

Xu Tian was the strongest among all of them, but if any of them fled, he could only chase after one.

Just like Du Gang, he was also waiting for a chance to score some kills when the others were distracted in battle.

If these players were to be compared to creatures, Du Gang would be an eagle— making strategic advances and retreats, taking a more cautious approach. Nobody could catch up with him.

Xu Tian, as the most powerful player, was like a tiger—nobody could defeat him, but he could only chase after one person at a time.

The alliances, on the other hand, were akin to prides of lions for the dual-layer Domain bearers, and packs of wolves for the single-layer Domain bearers.

When the prides of lions launched their attacks on the packs of wolves, the eagle and tiger sprung into action.

These two creatures, regardless of whether their opponents were lions or wolves, killed anyone they could get their hands on, always aiming for the kill.

In the end, both packs of wolves were annihilated, and both prides of lions were heavily injured. The eagle managed to flee when the lions came after him. The other lion pride also managed to escape from the tiger’s pursuit. [Remaining players in the first competition area: 44]

After a massive battle, besides the two solo players, Du Gang, and Xu Tian, there were only 42 players left in the two dual-layer Domain alliances.

The original six-power landscape had distilled down to four powers, each occupying one direction. No one could take down another easily.

Du Gang represented speed—no one could catch up with him. He had the ability to strike first, and his attack power, among the remaining 1+4 players, was excellent. However, he was not able to face multiple people at once.

Xu Tian represented strength—no one could defeat him. He had the capability to cut through everyone, the drawback being his lack of powerful group attacks. He could only chase one person at each time.

The remaining alliances, while rather mundane, were complementary and when combined, they presented a threat to the two solo players.

Du Gang and Xu Tian could not fight because they could either not catch each other or defeat each other. So they were waiting for the larger alliances to fight each other, to capitalize on opportunities to seize more kills.

The other two large alliances were deliberating about whom to attack.

The situation seemed to have reached a stalemate, with time marching unceasingly on.

The twenty-sixth day.

As usual, Du Gang moved quickly to a new location after exposing his position with a light point. Using his speed, he scouted reports on the other groups and ensured there was no unusual activity before resting in an unfamiliar place.

As the competition time was running out, Du Gang had no mood to train. Essentially he spent his day, surveying others’ conditions about ten times, seeking an opportune moment.

After finishing his regular scouting, Du Gang quickly changed locations and rested.

Right after his departure, the two alliances surreptitiously gathered together.

“Du Gang has left. He usually takes at least an hour to come out again. Gentlemen, let’s take this opportunity to deal with Xu Tian first and then slowly deal with the faster one!”

After careful calculations, the two alliances decided to join forces, deal with the two strongest solo players first, and then fight among themselves with the remaining players.

After observing for a few days and understanding Du Gang’s basic movements, they decided to attack Xu Tian.

Because, Xu Tian never hides his tracks and basically doesn’t move.

With the number of remaining participants hanging in the sky, Xu Tian didn’t need to explore. He just needed to check if someone had died; if so, he would make his move.

So, these two groups, a total of 42 dual-layer Domain bearers, targeted Xu Tian.

In just over ten minutes, they surrounded Xu Tian’s resting place.

Glancing at the people who had jointly trapped him in the middle, Xu Tian flashed a smile.

“Did your two alliances join together?”

“Yes!”

The representative with decent strength from the alliances said with a faint smile: “We admit that you, Xu Tian, are the strongest. No one in the first competition area can beat you…”

“But, you are just one person, and we are a group!”

Just like Du Gang before, those present completely misunderstood the weight of the Domain laws and assumed that the more people they had, the more likely they could beat Xu Tian.

As expected, Xu Tian just chuckled.

His galaxy of origin was very close to the White Dragon Mountain Cosmos Nation. His family, including him, had been to the White Dragon Mountain. Therefore, he had such achievements. And he knew about the weight of the Domain laws.

He nonchalantly asked, “Why didn’t you go and kill Du Gang? His points are higher than mine!”

The alliance leader shrugged, “Du Gang, we will kill him sooner or later, but not now…”

“He is too cunning, changing his location over a dozen times a day, hard to catch…

“You, on the other hand, are different. Though powerful, you’re too confident and arrogant. You don’t even bother to change your nest…’

The alliance leader laughed, “Haven’t you ever heard of the saying, ‘Much weeping kills an elephant?’”

“You are not an elephant, and we are not ants. The difference in our abilities is actually not that big…”

“Haha!”

Xu Tian suddenly laughed, shaking his head, “You guys are truly fearless of the unknown. If you conspired against Du Gang, you might have killed him. But killing me?”

“You’re dreaming!!”

Upon hearing this, all 42 members of the alliance began to laugh.

“Xu Tian, don’t think that by saying these words, we will back down. Today, we might lose some of our men, but you will definitely die along with us!”

“Brothers, make your move!”

The leader of the alliance was done waiting, afraid that Du Gang would notice, so he quickly gave the command.

Everyone was covered by two layers of Domain, and they rushed towards Xu Tian without hesitation.

“Fire Dragon!” “Dragon Flame!” “Water Burst!”

“Wind Blade!”

For a moment, everyone was shouting as they launched their attacks towards Xu Tian.

And Xu Tian, he stood still, as if shocked.

No one noticed that the soil beneath Xu Tian’s feet began to change.

Only some Earth Element Domain users noticed the changes, but they didn’t think much of it. It would be normal to fight back, it would be abnormal not to. They believed that with their numbers, they could easily overwhelm Xu Tian.

“Sssss!”

To everyone’s surprise, when the array of attacks, each endowed with the Laws’ mystery, flew into Xu Tian’s Domain, they began to be dissolved and were blocked entirely.

“Again!”

The crowd did not give up, continuing to press forward while casting their spells.

Finally, when they stepped within a hundred meters of Xu Tian, he finally broke into a smile.

“Earth’s Prison!”

In an instant, the ground beneath everyone’s feet came alive, swelling and joining forces with the Earth Element Laws in the air to create a massive Earth Prison, trapping everyone inside.

Xu Tian started to move. The Earth Prison wouldn’t hold them for long. He was just buying time, aiming to kill as many as possible.

“Kill!

This time, he charged forward like a tank, heading straight for where the crowd was thickest.

The attacks from the crowd were dissolved by his Domain before they even got close to his body.

And every attack from Xu Tian led to one certain death.

Meanwhile, Du Gang, who had just taken a rest, suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.

“Someone’s dead, something’s going on!”

He quickly sprang up, holding his spear and activating the third transformation, heading towards the location the alliance was previously positioned.

Soon, he arrived at the assembly area of the first alliance… nobody was there!

Then, he arrived at the assembly area of the second alliance… still no one! “Could it be that these two groups have joined forces to attack Xu Tian?”

Seeing no traces of Laws fluctuating around, he quickly summoned his technique and flew towards where Xu Tian was.

As expected, halfway through his journey, he sensed a strong fluctuation of Laws from a distance.

“These guys really dared to ambush Xu Tian!”

He knew the weight of Domain Laws, so he knew these people would undoubtedly waste all their previous efforts.

“What a great opportunity!”

Du Gang’s eyes brightened, and he increased his speed, heading straight for the center of the conflict.

Now was the perfect time for him to take advantage!

Soon, he arrived at the center of the battle. At this moment, a massive wall of earth enclosed everyone, and Xu Tian was relentlessly hunting down others.

“Don’t scatter, unite and kill!”

“Don’t escape, there’s no chance if you do!”

The Alliance leader roared in rage, but it had no effect. At this point, Xu Tian had already killed a dozen of their members, scaring the rest of them into scattering.

Even worse, some of them attacked their former allies in an attempt to gain points.

Seeing this, Du Gang didn’t hesitate and quickly descended.

“Sssss!”

With a quick thrust of his spear, he killed two people who had escaped the earth wall, and he swiftly withdrew before the other attacks reached him.

“Du Gang is here!”

“Du Gang is here!”

With two outcries, the entire alliance fell apart. Those who had been following the alliance leader also started running away.

What surprised Du Gang even more was that these guys chose to scatter and run!

The instinct to outrun their teammates dominated their actions in critical moments, leading them all to flee individually. This was extremely good news for Du Gang.

“Sss!” “Sss!”

Within a short span of a few seconds, he killed a dozen enemies who had tried to escape individually.

These people couldn’t keep up with his speed, which was a third of the speed of light. He could catch up with them in less than a second!

“Stop taking them, they’re mine!”

After killing the enemies inside the earth wall, Xu Tian watched Du Gang’s slaughtering spree and shouted angrily.

Du Gang glanced at Xu Tian below and sneered, “Yours? Did they have your name on them?”

Xu Tian was momentarily speechless, knowing he couldn’t argue with Du Gang. He quickly turned his attention towards the Alliance leader and chased after him.

In this way, under the besiegement and interception of the two, all 42 members of the alliance were annihilated,

Among them, Xu Tian killed 24, Du Gang killed 18.

After all, although Xu Tian was not superior in speed and couldn’t match Du Gang, he was somewhat faster when it came to chasing those within the second domain. Moreover, his previous mass killing within the crowd helped him take down a total of 24 people.

Only now, did a dramatic change occur in the leaderboard displayed in the sky of the first competition area.

[Number of individuals remaining in the first competition area: 2]

First competition area ranking: [First place, Du Gang, Points: 2688]

[Second place, Xu Tian, Points: 1536]

In the sky, Du Gang glanced at his points and then looked towards Xu Tian who was standing in the distance on the ground, laughing, “Xu Tian, why don’t you give me your life. This would make me exceed 3000 points and ensure I place higher in the overall rankings…”

They couldn’t see the overall ranking while in their competition area, so they were unaware of the specific situations in the other competition areas.

Xu Tian sneered, “Why don’t you give me your points, so that I could also exceed 2000 points?”

Du Gang laughed, “Are these situations the same? We are both from the first competition area. If you give me your points then I might represent the first competition area and achieve first place in overall ranking. What use would it be if I gave you my points? You can’t steal the first place anyway.”

Xu Tian curled his lips, replying irritably, “Come down here then, I’ll give you points!”

Du Gang calmly replied, “Why don’t you come up!”

He knew that Xu Tian has Earth Element, so he didn’t land, combined with Du Gang’s precise ability to keep a distance from him.

After a brief verbal spar, one didn’t want to ascend into the sky, while the other dared not descend to the ground.

Xu Tian didn’t want to ascend because he wouldn’t be able to corner Du Gang in the sky. If Du Gang came to the ground, however, he had a way to immobilize him for a second…

As for Du Gang, he dared not descend to the ground because the concentration of the Earth Elements there was dense, making him wary of any underhanded tricks by Xu Tian.

“Are we going to fight or not?”

Xu Tian. who hadn’t undergone any verbal training. was becoming somewhat

impatient after his verbal spar with Du Gang.

Still joking, Du Gang responded, ‘We will fight, why don’t you come up here, let’s see if I can take you out in an instant!”

Xu Tian rolled his eyes, ignoring Du Gang, sank his legs into the ground, and dived straight into it, stopping only when he was about 500 meters underground.

He had already decided not to fight anymore and to delay till the thirtieth day.

On the ground, he still wanted to fight Du Gang, but had no desire to do so in the sky.

This was not only because of Du Gang’s speed, but also because Xu Tian sensed that Du Gang was hiding a powerful move.

Therefore, he did not want to take the risk!

500 meters underground was a very safe place for him. If Du Gang dares to come down, he would dare to instantly kill him.

Seeing this individual who disappeared into the ground, Du Gang was speechless.

He was planning to provoke Xu Tian with words and see if he could aggravate Xu Tian and make him fight in the sky.

Although, he was aware of the problem with the rule domain weight. However, being a Gold Element user, Sharp Gold and War Gold were extreme breaking skills with mystery, and perhaps Sky-Breaking Strike could kill Xu Tian.

“Should I rush underground to try?”

After contemplating, Du Gang decided not to. Over 2000 points were enough to get him a good ranking. If he lost, he would lose half of his points which could lead to a significant downgrade in rank.

Thus, one remained in the sky while the other stayed underground, scanning each other with their mental power, and confronting each other from afar.

On the thirtieth day, both considered rushing at each other and killing the other.

But eventually, they both refrained!

As time dripped away, the preliminary competition of the White Dragon Mountain area finally ended.

Matching the first competition area, there were 21 other competition areas that used up all their time.

Therefore, according to the rules, the first place winners from the other 78 competition areas where only one person is left, advanced directly. The 78

people were ranked for the first time based on the number of points they had.

Only when these people’s rankings were confirmed and fixed, the scores of all remaining participants were calculated. From most to least points, the rankings started from the seventy-ninth place.

[First place, Zhao Biao, Points: 3699] [Second place, Zuo Qiu, Points: 3578]

[Third place, Yuan Yao, Points: 3455]

[Seventy-eighth place, Qi Jun, Points: 1346] [Seventy-ninth place, Du Gang, Points: 2688]

[One hundred fifty-fifth place, Xu Tian, Points: 1536]

[Ninety-two hundred eighth place, Zhang Bo, Points: 101]

Zhang Bo’s luck was neither good nor bad. In his competition area, there was one three-domain competitor.

Before running into that person, Zhang Bo cleared a sizeable area with his second domain, killing 202 people. When he ran into the three-domain competitor, he was carried away.

In the end, after the competition ended, he still successfully advanced! Du Gang was initiallv uDset when he learned that his rank was onlv seventy-ninth. But he felt much better after he learned from Balala that there were two four-domain competitors and a host of three-domain competitors in this round of/competition.

“Xu Tian, a three-domain competitor, is a little over one hundred places. My seventy-eighth place isn’t bad at all!”

However, there was one thing he regretted: both the preliminary and intermediate competitions only awarded him one Stellar Crystal.

At this moment, Fan An called.

“Hey, Du Gang, congratulations! You achieved a great result, the seventy-eighth place. You broke the record for the Milky Way galaxy!”

Du Gang laughed and asked, “Brother Fan, when are we leaving for White Dragon Mountain?

Fan An laughed and said, “I wanted to inform you. Tomorrow at 12 noon, at the virtual galaxy building, gather outside the first-floor entrance. We will all take the company spaceship to White Dragon Mountain!”

After hanging up the phone, Du Gang turned to Balala and asked, “We are leaving tomorrow. Do we need to take anything?”

Balala laughed, “What’s there to take? Isn’t all our stuff in the Storage Ring?”

“Phew-”

Du Gang took a deep breath and slowly said, “Tomorrow we will be leaving the

Milky Way galaxy!”

“Before, even if we left the Earth by hundreds or thousands of light-years, or even a hundred thousand light-years, it felt close. After all, if we want to go back, we could just use the Ancient God number to jump back…”

“But tomorrow, I will leave here, to a place billions of light years away from the Milky Way…”

He felt a little melancholic for a moment.

“Palala, let’s go back to Earth!”

Before finally leaving, Du Gang wanted to take one last look. Once he leaves this time, it might be a long while before he’d be able to return.

With a distance of billions of light years, coming back won’t be easy, unless he gets a more powerful spaceship.

Soon, Du Gang boarded the Ancient God and jumped directly to Earth.

Having been away for two years, the Earth hadn’t changed much, it was still the same as before.

He made the Ancient God invisible and started strolling around.

He visited the former Nanyuan City, Luo An City, and even the later Nanyuan base.

Then, he hovered around the Earth a few times at an extremely fast speed aboard the Ancient God.

Finally, he went to the Earth Alliance Headquarters.

The Federation leader had been replaced by a former meteorite-level powerhouse, who now had meteorite-level strength.

There were also a considerable number of meteorite-level powerhouses.

Without bothering to say hello, he flew out of Earth and found many satellite bases around Earth, some of which were capable of delivering a devastating blow to the comet level bases. He even saw one base that posed a threat to satellite-level bases.

He realized that all of this was Chu Zixuan’s achievement.

“Du Gang, where to next?”

He thought about it and said, “To the Purple Orchid Domain, if Chu Zixuan leaves Earth, he can only go there!”

After another jump, the spaceship arrived at the Purple Orchid Domain.

When Palala re-infiltrated the local network, she laughed, “Du Gang, Chu Zixuan is now the king of the Purple Orchid Domain!”

“King?” Du Gang queried.

Palala replied, “Yes, Brother Fan and the others came here to find him and shared some information about your situation…”

“Then, the people here in the Purple Orchid Domain couldn’t wait to crown Chu

Zixuan as their king.”

“Ha ha!”

Du Gang laughed and said, “Jump to the nearest planet to him…”

When they arrived at Chu Zixuan’s planet, Du Gang expanded his mental power, covering the entire planet.

This time, no one expelled his mental powers.

His strength had reached a level that Chu Zixuan couldn’t detect. Even though Chu Zixuan was a satellite-level expert and among the strongest on the Purple Orchid Domain.

“Sigh!”

Du Gang sighed, “That’s the limit of Earth… You wouldn’t be able to go far, would you…”

In more than ten thousand years, Earth will fall completely into the entropy domain. Maybe it won’t take that long, perhaps in ten thousand years, life will cease due to the proximity to the entropy domain.

Purple-Rank powerhouses and above can escape by jumping on spaceships while ordinary people below the Purple Level can’t…

“Why is there an entropy domain…”

Du Gang was somewhat despondent, he didn’t want the Earth to be destroyed, nor did he want ordinary people to die.

Even though they are ordinary people, they are the essence of humanity…

So if these common folks want to escape, they have no choice but to take a spaceship. Even a C-level spaceship, traveling at a third of the speed of light, takes twelve years to reach the Nalan Star System. To reach the Purple Orchid Domain, they would need three hundred years!

Three hundred years could cause several generations of ordinary people on Earth to age and die!

Moreover, how many people can fit into a spaceship?

“It would be good if I could take Earth with me when I jump…”

As soon as he said this, Du Gang froze.

He turned his head abruptly and looked at Palala, “Palala, what if I grow bigger, could I bring Earth along?”

“Take Earth along?” Palala was stunned and didn’t understand his meaning at first.

Du Gang started calculating immediately.

“The diameter of the Earth is 12,742 kilometers, which is equivalent to meters…”

“If I reach the seventh rank, which is the peak of the Domain-Lord Level, I’ll be ten million meters tall. At that point, my gravitational pull would be enough to move the Earth!”

He exclaimed excitedly: “Palala, tell me, if I break through to the seventh-rank peak, could I bring Earth along when I leave?”

“Ah?!!”

Palala was stunned, “To be honest, according to your size, it seems you should be able to pull the Earth, but I have never heard of anyone being able to pull the

Earth away…”

“I have no idea what is going to happen!”

Du Gang said excitedly, “It should be possible. What if I reach the eighth rank?”

“The eighth rank is the Sector-Lord Level. From what I heard, Sector-Lords have their own worlds inside their bodies where people can live.”

“By then, I can put the Earth inside my body!”

Palala was momentarily silent before saying, “That’s a great idea, I support you. But you have to break through to the seventh or even the eighth rank within ten thousand years!”

“I understand, I will breakthrough as soon as possible!”

After Du Gang finished speaking, he flashed and appeared in front of Chu Zixuan.

He instantly frightened Chu Zixuan.

“How did you come back…”

Du Gang immediately told Chu Zixuan about the plan he had just conceived.

Suddenly, Chu Zixuan’s eyes lit up, “The method you mentioned is indeed feasible. Even if you can’t get the Earth in by then, if you can create a world where people can live within your body, you can let the people of Earth live within your body…”

After finishing the discussion about Earth, the two chatted for a while. Du Gang once again left Chu Zixuan with some resources and left.

This time, he’s going to venture billions of light years away from home.

However, he believes that when he returns, he will bring the mother planet Earth with him and leave this dying star field once and for all!
