Translator: 549690339
After Du Gang had settled all the earthlings, he returned to their dwelling place with the protection of several Eternal Level powerhouses.
The Jiang Family were one of the eighteen major clans, their target was Du Gang, and not likely to target ordinary people.
Therefore, he was not worried about the safety of the earthlings.
Next, he saw Qiao Jin the Elder and many other Eternal Level powerhouses, and sent all the people from their respective families to them.
Then, Du Gang received the contact information from these people one by one, not in the form of Light Computer codes, but in the form of Divine Summoning Talismans.
This was a kind of talisman that could only be made by strong individuals of Eternal Level and above. The holder can activate the talisman to summon deities to fight for him.
It was often the personal protective item given by Eternal Level powerhouses to their close blood relatives.
As a result, he received forty-six Divine Summoning Talismans. Each of these Eternal Level powerhouses had given him one.
This means that in life-and-death situations, he could temporarily summon the deities of these people to come. Although it might only be a part of their real strength, it is still much stronger than a Sector Lord.
Du Gang was very satisfied with this outcome. Merely by kindly taking some people along, he received the treatment equivalent to having forty-six Eternal Level powerhouses as personal protection.
“Big profit!”
After dealing with matters here, the Overlord also found time to return.
Very coincidentally, the person who came to escort the Overlord, named Xiang Bo, was a strong man of the God Spirit Level who had undergone two tribulations.
However, he didn’t think poorly of Du Gang and simply appeared indifferent.
“Du Gang, thank you so much this time...”
The Overlord began by expressing his thanks.
Du Gang, on the other hand, didn’t waste words and went straight with him to the dwelling place which the Overlord had bought.
It was still the same salesman as before. He might have recovered somewhat, there was some color in his face this time, but he still seemed somewhat afraid when he looked at Du Gang.
After all, an Eternal Level powerhouse had attempted to assassinate Du Gang and nearly got him involved. Having such an experience, it was inevitable that he would have some psychological trauma.
“Mr. Overlord, welcome. Let’s go to your domain and take a look...”
Soon, the group of four flew in one direction.
When they flew to the place where the earthlings were staying, Du Gang pointed and laughed, “This is where our hometown people live, after get older, I may retire here...”
“Ha-ha!”
The Overlord laughed and said, “When I get old, I’ll retire next door to you!”
Xiang Bo looked at Du Gang a few more times after hearing these words. He didn’t expect the Overlord to have such a good relationship with Du Gang.
Soon, they passed over the earthlings’ dwelling place, and arrived at the region chosen by the Overlord.
In front of them, ten million guards were standing there in a neat and orderly manner.
Seeing them flying over, the leader immediately led the group to shout, “Welcome, Mr. Overlord, Jiangdong Guard Team reporting!”
“Huh?”
The first to speak out was Xiang Bo, who had been silent all along. He was stunned, “These people are your guard team?”
The Overlord nodded and laughed, “Yes, these are all the guards I hired...”
Xiang Bo swallowed and asked incredulously, “Did you buy them from the company?”
“Yes, thanks to Du Gang, I found out that the company could actually give me such a high loan...”
“Not only these people, but this domain is also mine!”
He was full of pride and turned to the nearby salesman, “Tell my uncle about the size of my domain!”
He called the present Xiang Family’s head his godfather, and Xiang Bo was of the same generation as the head, so he called him uncle.
The salesman immediately stepped forward and introduced, “Mr. Overlord’s domain covers a total of 96 million square kilometers...”
Xiang Bo was dumbfounded at this moment.
He was stunned for a while before quickly asking, “Just tell me, how much did he borrow at the time?”
The salesman obviously felt that the man in front of him was not weak. He was a bit nervous, but he still answered, “Mr. Overlord borrowed a total of 106 million Saint Crystals...”
“106 million Saint Crystals...”
Xiang Bo’s mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a moment.
He looked at Overlord Xiang Yu, who had a beaming smile on his face at the moment, and wanted to hit him.
But thinking about the family head’s bias towards him, he endured it. He shivered all over and then asked, “Xiang Yu, do you know how much your uncle’s annual salary is?”
The Overlord shook his head, “I don’t know!”
Xiang Bo slowly said, “Twenty thousand Saint Crystals for 10,000 years!”
“Huh?”
At this moment, not to mention the Overlord, even Du Gang, was stunned on the spot.
“That little?”
Du Gang was somewhat curious because he recalled that he had extorted more than seventy thousand Saint Crystals just before...
Xiang Bo’s gaze at Du Gang was extremely unpleasant at this point.
It was this guy who had tricked Xiang Yu, a member of his family, into borrowing so much money.
“Little? Do you think Saint Crystals are swept up by the wind?”
“This stuff can only be found in relics, and each relic is extremely rare...”
After all, each relic represents the death of an Eternal Level Powerhouse, which is naturally very precious.
Listening to these angry words, Du Gang was a little embarrassed.
He truly didn’t know that an Eternal Level Powerhouse could only receive twenty thousand Saint Crystals every ten thousand years.
No, Xiang Bo is a Second Tribulation God Spirit, so he can only receive twenty thousand. If it is a First Tribulation God Spirit, it may only receive one per year...
Wait, I remember Kong Luo...
Du Gang recalled that when Kong Luo mentioned seventy to eighty thousand Saint Crystals, his expression was very casual.
Kong Luo’s indifference was because he was a Sequential Disciple, who could receive more resources than non-sequential disciples like Xiang Bo, so he didn’t care. Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com
Overlord was also shocked by this number, “One hundred million Saint Crystals, does that mean I have to accumulate for one billion years if I advance to the Eternal Level?”
He was completely flabbergasted, almost on the verge of crying at this point.
Seeing his state, Xiang Bo quickly comforted him: “It’s fine, it’s just one hundred million Saint Crystals. Basically, none of us God Spirit Level powerhouses live on the basic salary. We get a lot more Saint Crystals from doing casual tasks...”
Listening to this, Overlord asked, “Uncle, approximately how long does it take for you to earn a hundred million Saint Crystals?”
“A hundred million Saint Crystals?”
Xiang Bo began to calculate and after a while, he said, “It’s not too long actually, it would take hundreds of thousands of years to earn that much...”
“Hundreds of thousands of years...”
Overlord was dumbfounded. This was just the time required for powerhouses above the Eternal Level. The problem was that he was only at the Stellar Level!
By the time he reached the Eternal Level, who knows when that would be?!
However, Du Gang murmured, “Is it that hard? I made over thirty thousand in a week last time...”
All the people present were powerhouses and could hear him even if he spoke softly.
Xiang Bo looked speechless and refuted, “That’s a crooked way, and you were just lucky to catch a relic appearing, otherwise, you couldn’t possibly have so many...”
Overlord, hearing that Du Gang made thirty thousand in a week, immediately got interested and quickly asked, “Du Gang, how did you earn that?”
Du Gang smiled, “It’s very simple, a relic appeared before, and I caught more than three hundred geniuses from various imperial families in the Pangu Continent. Each of them gave me more than two hundred Saint Crystals, which gave me more than seventy thousand in total. Of course, I gave half to the elder who helped me...”
“Kidnapping people is worth so much?”
Overlord’s eyes lit up, as if he’d found a way to get rich and repay the loan.
After hearing this, Xiang Bo quickly admonished, “Xiang Yu, you must never do this, it is a crooked path. You, as the adopted son of the house owner, represent the Xiang family in all your actions...”
Listening to this, Overlord hesitated again.
But Du Gang muttered softly, “Can’t you just not let the Xiang family know?!”
Suddenly, Overlord’s eyes lighted up again.
“Du Gang!”
Xiang Bo roared in anger, “Can you stop leading our Xiang Yu astray?!”
“Ahem!”
Making Overlord owe a billion, Du Gang felt a little awkward. He was just telling Overlord about a way to repay the debt.
“You... Everyone else has already left, we don’t need you here anymore, Du Gang, I think you’d better leave soon!”
Xiang Bo originally wanted to say a few more harsh words, but he felt a disturbance in the void, so he stopped, simply asking Du Gang to leave.
Du Gang also sensed that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he quickly said his goodbyes to Overlord.
“Overlord, I should really leave. I haven’t returned to the Pangu Continent yet. You focus on your cultivation and strive to be able to rob uh uh, achieve success soon!!”
Upon hearing this, Overlord nodded and smiled: “Don’t worry, it won’t take long before I catch up with you...”
Du Gang shrugged, not taking his words seriously, and quickly left.
Flying halfway, he still couldn’t believe it, “Are Saint Crystals this valuable?”
At this moment, the rare appearance of Balala stated, “Extremely valuable. It’s very clear from the fact that a single Saint Crystal is equivalent to the fuel of a Class A Spaceship...”
Du Gang scratched his head, “So, I screwed the Overlord over?”
He had genuinely believed that Saint Crystals were easy to profit from, hence he wanted to borrow more.
“Forget it, the Overlord is after all a Tyrant Body, he should have no problem repaying the debt when the time comes. Besides, even if he can’t, the Xiang Family will back him, right!”
Thinking this way, Du Gang felt relieved.
He quickly returned to his base and then went to visit Qingyu.
“You’re back?!”
At this moment, Qingyu didn’t exude the domineering aura as last time. Instead, he seemed like a middle-aged man who’d entered retirement life in advance, nonchalantly sipping tea.
Du Gang nodded, “Yes, thank you for your protection, General!”
Seeing that Qingyu didn’t respond, he continued, “General, this time, I plan to visit the temple. I heard that it might have something to do with the Pangu Supreme...”
Qingyu then nodded, “Indeed, the temple has some connection with the Pangu Supreme. It claimed many lives when it first surfaced...”
“Go ahead, only those of the Sector Lord level can enter the temple. The only danger you face inside will be your peers...”
Once Du Gang got the permission, he thanked him again, “Then, I shall take my leave...”
Qingyu nodded, but then called out to him again.
“Hmm... There will be certain dangers once you enter...”
“Currently, the only ones who dare to protect you are the Kong family members, other families don’t dare, unless they have a cause with you...”
“However, there are quite a few who dare to be your enemies...”
Du Gang looked confused, not understanding his meaning.
Qingyu continued, “The eighteen clans of Penglai Island aren’t operating on their own. Based on the four major companies, we have formed four alliances. We’re both cooperative and competitive...”
“My Virtual Universe Company is considered one alliance, and their Cosmic Colosseum is regarded as another...”
“The families that stand in the same alliance as the Jiang Family include the Dragon Family, Qin Family, Si Family, and Yin Family. Although these families wouldn’t assist the Jiang Family in dealing with you, the children from these families may become your enemies...”
“Among them, the Dragon Family is a branch of the Azure Flood Dragon Clan. The current dragon son is named Long Aotian. He is known for having a proud personality, possessing the dragon body, and is extremely fond of fame. He resents anyone who is more popular than him. Your fame is apparently higher than his, so in the temple, besides the Jiang Family members, you also need to be wary of this Long Aotian...”
Hearing this, Du Gang immediately showed deep gratitude, “Thank you for reminding me, senior!”
Without Qingyu telling him, he might not know such things.
If he entered the temple unaware and got ambushed, he wouldn’t even know who did it.
At least now he knows who the five households under the Cosmic Colosseum are.
“Hmm, go ahead!”
This time, Qingyu directly closed his eyes.
Seeing this, Du Gang respectfully left the large tent.
After leaving, he first returned to his residence.
Someone asked bitterly.
“Four, those guys have one each week!”
A faint voice responded.
Instantly, the others present were filled with annoyance. They lamented that despite being at the God Spirit Level, they weren’t doing as well as those guys.
However, they seemed to have forgotten that many years ago, when they hadn’t yet advanced to the Eternal Level, didn’t they behave in the same way as Jiang Wenxing and the others?
The clans have always spared no effort in cultivating their young descendants!
“Burp!”
Under everyone’s gaze, Du Gang belched again and dug out the second bottle of Wuliangye, simultaneously shaking and floating towards the third bottle.
“Damn, it’s my first time seeing someone gulping down Wuliangye like this. This kid is still continuously eliminating his alcohol...”
Another voice rang out in the void. It was clear from his tone that he was helpless, and there was even a hint of envy in his voice.
“I wonder what it feels like to drink Wuliangye to satisfaction. I’d really like to ask him how he feels now!”
At this moment, these God Spirit Level guards began an unusual chat.
Although they usually held prestigious positions, they still had certain duties and often wouldn’t have leisure time.
Soon, under the envious gazes of everyone present, Du Gang was gulping down one bottle of Wuliangye after another, continuously.
They didn’t realize, but Du Gang’s sentiment at this moment was completely different.
At this moment, there was a surge of heat rushing in his body, and even, in his eyes, there was a hallucination.
It seemed to him like a monkey was dancing continuously in front of him.
“No, not a dance...”
Du Gang’s consciousness had somewhat blurred at this point, he muttered, “It’s drunk, it’s drunk...”
In his eyes, a drunken monkey was swaying non-stop in the air.
Seeing this drunken monkey, Du Gang laughed: “You monkey, you can’t handle your liquor and yet you insist on drinking, feeling drunk now?!”
Seeing its absurdity, Du Gang couldn’t help but mimic it.
He mimicked its movements, taking a step when the monkey did, and stumbling when the monkey did.
“Hehe!”
At that moment, he had completely forgotten what he was here for, and while consuming his tenth bottle of Wuliangye, began performing a drunken boxing routine.
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
With each punch he threw, a gust of wind whirled up, seeming quite imposing.
Yet Du Gang appeared on the brink of collapsing, seeming soft and pliable, his form beginning to bend.
It seemed like he was about to fall any second, but he didn’t. Stumbling, he threw another punch once again.
This time, his punch took on the form of a dragon, a strange aura abruptly emerged.
“Boom!”
In the sky above South Mountain, the sound of thunder suddenly echoed, startling all the birds and beasts on the mountain.
Instantly, a cacophony of animal cries and birdsongs reverberated through the heavens and the earth.
“What’s going on? Out of nowhere, why is there thunder?”
A servant looked up at the sky in bewilderment. At that moment, something unforeseen happened.
From the sky, suddenly emerged a red mist, appearing as if illuminated by the red afterglow of dusk.
“That is odd, it is clearly noon right now, where could this sunset be coming from?!”
The servant, panicked, quickly took out his Light Computer, about to report the situation.
“Whoosh!”
At that moment, a beam of light shot out from the void, quickly striking him and knocking him unconscious.
Simultaneously, several God Spirit Level powerhouses appeared, their brows furrowed.
“Is it that thing?”
“It might be...”
“What should we do?”
“Maybe we should help him cover it up?!”
“So be it, let’s cover it up...”
“Ah, what the hell is going on!”
After these God Spirit Level powerhouses finished speaking, each flaunted their divine powers, acting swiftly to temporarily seal off the entire South Mountain. They concealed all odd phenomena and knocked out all the tourists and servants who were still on South Mountain.
Having done all of this, one of the God Spirit Level powerhouses, a look of envy on his face, said, “An ordinary wine appreciation master would have to go through hundreds, even thousands, of bottles to possibly comprehend the Drunken Monkey Divine Fist. But this kid, he doesn’t know anything about tasting wine. Yet, after just ten bottles of Wuliangye, he was able to comprehend the Drunken Monkey Divine Fist!”
“This kid made a big fortune!”
As it turns out, the reason why Wuliangye is sold at such high prices is that if you taste it carefully, you might comprehend the Drunken Monkey Divine Fist.
The so-called Drunken Monkey Divine Fist is a martial skill spontaneously comprehended by a sage-level divine monkey ancestor of the Fighting Saint Clan when it got drunk.
Every person who buys Wuliangye hopes they can learn this sage-level martial skill through it.
But in reality, those who truly understand wine find it even more difficult to attain enlightenment.
Because, the drunk monkey from back then did not understand wine, otherwise, it would not have gotten drunk.
It got unintentionally drunk and unintentionally enlightened.
So, under normal circumstances, only people who know nothing about wine have a slightly higher probability of comprehending the Drunken Monkey Divine Fist!
But the question is, who amongst those who know nothing about wine is willing to spend thousands of Saint Crystals on it?
Natually, even if people who know nothing about wine drink it, attaining enlightenment would still be extremely difficult.
This is all due to Du Gang’s sufficient talents as well as a bit of luck, leading to his enlightenment after ten bottles of Wuliangye.
“Damn it, originally, comprehending the Drunken Monkey Divine Fist through Wuliangye should have been a cause for celebration, something to be shared with everyone...”
Among the divine bodyguards, there were also wine lovers, who grumbled, “But now, we have to cover it up!”
How could they not cover up? The wine Du Gang drank was stolen, which would attract the attention of the local South Mountain families and ruin the reputation of his Kong Family.
But, having them collectively compensate for Du Gang’s stolen wine was out of the question. They were all too poor to afford it, let alone having not tasted the wine themselves.
So, they had secretly agreed to whisk Du Gang away as soon as he finished comprehending the Drunken Monkey Divine Fist.
They were not going to pay for the stolen wine as they didn’t drink it!
As long as Du Gang was not caught red-handed, it would suffice!
“Boom!”
In the sky, monstrous Qi rolled and surged, which would have been able to spread millions kilometers away if not for the coverage of several God Spirit Level powerhouses.
With the technological advances of the Pangu Continent, such a spread of Qi would have been known by all by then!
“This sage attained enlightenment over tens of billions of years ago, didn’t he?!”
“Yes, it is said that he attained enlightenment during the activity of the Ancient Holy Body...”
“After tens of billions of years, such formidable power still exists. Looking at the Qi, it’s as if the sage himself is present!”
Everyone was sighing, yearning for the sage-level martial art.
However, one of them spoke up, “If I remember correctly, the Ancient Holy Body also practiced this Drunken Monkey Divine Fist, didn’t it?!”
“Ah, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve forgotten. Indeed, this is recorded in the History!”
“Ah, what a dazzling and colorful period that was!”
“If only we could go back and have a look...”
A longing glow appeared on the faces of those present.
For these God Spirit Level beings, to have experienced that era and taken part in it was far more important!
But sadly, these were all young characters, merely a few hundred million years old.
“Uh, did you guys notice that our records here seem to have nothing about the incident that happened a hundred billion years ago...”
An old guard who heard this jumped in shock and instantly said, “Quiet! Don’t spread such words recklessly, beware of curses...”
Suddenly, all the God Spirit Level powerhouses came to their senses, each of them shutting up.
Quickly recovering to their previous state: indifferent, cold, and stoic.
At this moment, Du Gang, who was inside a Wuliangye liquor jar, was punching faster and faster.
At this moment, he had forgotten who he was, and even where he was.
He was just dancing non-stop behind the monkey in front of him.
However, as his punches grew stronger, the monkey in his eyes gradually disappeared. His form, however, merged with the monkey in his eyes.
“Harmony of the divine, Fist technique self-attained!”
With the rise of a voice full of divinity, Du Gang had officially mastered this sage-level Drunken Monkey Divine Fist!
“Boom!”
At this moment, the red clouds in the sky exploded, as if to celebrate his achievement.
Simultaneously, far away on Primordial Continent, a closed-door cultivator in the Fighting Saint Clan territory opened his eyes.
Murmuring: “Another foreigner has comprehended the ancestral Drunken Monkey Divine Fist, has the storm risen again after a hundred billion years?!”
“Can it succeed this time?!”
“Can it succeed?!”
This voice, like self-inquiry, echoed continuously in the cave.
At the same time, with the elder’s awakening, the divine statues of some clans on the continent began to tremble slightly at this moment.
At this moment, all the top hundred godly clans were alarmed.
All the upper echelons were shocked, looking at the trembling statue speechlessly.
After a long while, a Great Power powerhouse slowly said, “Is another life coming?”
There was no reply, but on this day, all the godly clans began preparing.
The resources for nurturing the Divine Son and Sacred Son of each family increased a hundredfold on this day!
...
“Drunken Monkey Divine Fist!”
As Du Gang threw his last punch, he sobered up. At the same time, he pronounced these four words.
This time, regardless of how the God Spirit Level powerhouses tried to cover it up, it was too late.
These four words, like the Sound of the Dao, instantly broke through the seal of the gods and spread far and wide.
“Let’s get out of here quickly!”
Someone shouted.
Just as Du Gang woke up and had yet to grasp the situation, he was forcibly whisked away into the void by a God Spirit Level powerhouse.
“What’s happening?!”
Seeing his bewildered face, one of the God Spirit Level guards was annoyed and said, “You still have the nerve to ask? You sneaked someone’s Wuliangye, that’s one thing, but you’ve grasped the Drunken Monkey Divine Fist, causing such uproar...”
Du Gang was speechless. He felt a little embarrassed. He knew these people could see him after he shrank, but he had always subconsciously dismissed the idea that these people knew about his drinking.
Who knew that it would be broken out in the open, leaving him utterly speechless and embarrassed.
Thus, everyone spent a full three seconds in the void before stepping out.
Once Du Gang looked again, he had already arrived near the temple.
“Why did you bring me here?”
A guard twitched and said, “What, do you plan to go back and drink the rest of the ten bottles too?!”
Hearing this, Du Gang immediately grinned and laughed.
“Senior, I have no idea what you’re talking about...”
