Chapter 142: Chapter 141: Earth Crisis!

Translator: 549690339

Regarding the discussions about him on the internet, Du Gang had heard a bit from Balarala, but he didn’t pay attention.

They were aboard the Ancient God, incessantly jumping through space.

“Balarala, if we keep jumping like this, will the fuel be enough?”

Having left Tuoba Xing and having performed almost one hundred consecutive jumps, Du Gang began to worry about fuel.

“No worries. We’re on a C level Starship. The fuel used is C level too, enough for at least ten maximum single trips. Meaning, our fuel can support us to jump for one million light-years…”

Balarala quickly checked and laughed, “We still have one C level fuel left, which is enough for Ancient God to jump a distance of one hundred thousand light-years!”

Hearing this, Du Gang immediately relaxed, but he was a little frustrated at the pursuing ship.

Originally, according to Balarala’s plan, they could have directly jumped a distance of one hundred light-years and easily got rid of the pursuers.

Because currently, the best ship owned by the enemy is a Five-star E level, which also has a maximum single jumping distance of one hundred light-years.

However, Du Gang was worried that if the enemy could not catch up, they would vent on Earth, so he did not allow Balarala to proceed with his plan.

“Continuing like this isn’t a solution!”

Du Gang frowned. Currently, the enemy forces were one Planet Level, four Satellite Levels, and numerous Comet and Meteorite levels.

His Ancient God powers only allowed him to kill the Meteorite level opponents; anything higher than that, he was powerless.

This upset him quite a bit.

After pondering for a while, he still couldn’t think of a plan.

Finally, Du Gang asked, “Balarala, what if we leave a spear for them after the next jump?”

Unable to come up with a formidable plan for the enemy, he could only resort to reducing the enemy’s strength.

“Dear me, each Resonance Node can only maintain vibrations for four to five seconds. After that period, they wouldn’t be able to track us. Therefore, you just need to aim at our Node when they come out, around the third or fourth seconds, and shoot. They won’t be able to catch up!” After hearing his idea, Balarala became excited.

“However, waiting for a while could give them time…” Du Gang was both worried about being caught and getting rid of the enemy.

Balarala laughed, “We can jump out first, pull a one-second distance, and then you can swing your spear that direction. We wait for their ships to come and then jump away again…”

“Let’s do it that way!”

The two discussed the details for a moment and decided to execute the plan at the next jumping point.

When the enemy’s ship emerged, they quickly jumped away again.

Upon appearing again, the Ancient God flew towards one direction for a bit before Du Gang swiftly jumped off the ship. Transforming his form, he aimed at the Node they had originated from and shot a spear.

Then, he returned to the Ancient God, escaping the scene while occasionally glancing back to observe the situation.

Indeed, as predicted, the enemy warship had no defense. The moment it appeared, it was pierced through by the Ancient God’s spear!

“Boom!”

A loud explosion followed, and the 5000 meter Four-Star E Level ship in pursuit was destroyed.

Seeing the attack worked, Du Gang and Balarala immediately high-fived in the spaceship.

Then, the Ancient God jumped away again right in front of the enemies.

Watching the destruction of the Four-Star E Level ship, Tuoba Hong’s heart bled.

That’s money! “Chase them, what the hell are you guys doing?”

Hong Chong shouted.

At this moment, ships around the destroyed Four-Star ship were panicked, looking hesitant to chase further.

Looking at the helpless and furious Hong Chong, Tuoba Hong regretted reporting the Giant’s information back then.

But now, with no other way out, he quickly ordered, “The One-Star ship is at the forefront, the other ships should track the Resonance Node of the One-Star ship…”

He didn’t believe that Du Gang would stop preparing his ambushes; hence, he anticipated more attacks. Rather than the high-level ships getting damaged, it was better to let the One-Star ships scout ahead, with other ships tracking the Node of the One-Star ship.

Once the command was given, all the One-Star ships became frantic, but they had no choice. Tuoba Hong’s orders could not be ignored. Soon, the first One-Star ship quickly followed up.

People trailed the One-Star ship by about two seconds.

Chasing this way a few times verified Tuoba Hong’s predictions. Du Gang did set up some more ambushes ahead, which caused all early jumping ships to be severely damaged.

When he was unable to spot Du Gang’s Ancient God, Hong Chong gradually calmed down.

Sometimes, his helpless rage was performed for the spectators.

Did he not know that continuous chasing was a sacrifice in vain?

But without showing a raging expression, how would these people dare to chase?

Now, he was struck with a brilliant idea and quickly sent a message to Tuoba Hong and his men.

“You all, switch ships, let your subordinates chase in four and five-star ships…”

Next, he took four Satellite Level warriors with him onto a small ship and began discussing.

“I thoroughly checked Du Gang’s jumping route. He’s basically bounded by the star system under your Tuoba family’s name…”

“Clearly, he plans to place the battlefield here at the Tuoba family, causing as much damage as possible…”

Hong Chong abandoned his previous stupid looking behavior, calmly saying,

“Let’s set an ambush in one of the stellar systems owned by your family…” Tuoba Hong frowned, “But we won’t know their exact landing point…”

“That’s not important, I have a laws weapon that can block a starfield, making a small part of the star area unable to jump, and also limiting the speed of spaceships…”

Upon hearing this, Tuoba Hong twitched the corner of his mouth. He just couldn’t understand wny tn1S guy didn’t use tn1S powertul device earner, causing the downfall of their Tuoba star system.

Probably thinking the Tuoba family still served some use, Hong Chong offered an explanation.

“This kind of law weapon is too precious. Even I only have one such broken rules weapon and its count diminishes each time it’s used..

While speaking, Hong Chong took out an extremely shabby umbrella from his storage ring and carefully said, “This umbrella, known as Sky Covering

Umbrella, carries the law of space…”

The others immediately widened their eyes and looked over.

However, before they could get a clear look at its mysterious aura, Hong Chong quickly put it away.

“Alright, stop looking, let’s set off now and set up an ambush ahead of time…”

After he finished speaking, he quickly chose a star system of the Tuoba family and jumped over there.

Then, he immediately started setting up upon landing.

After Du Gang achieved his first victory, he realized his enemies wouldn’t fall for the same trick again. For each jump afterwards, they only dispatched a single one-star E-class spaceship to track him, making him feel like he was using a cannon to swat mosquitoes.

Using the Ancient God Spear, a ten thousand-meter long weapon, to destroy a spaceship of only fifty meters was making a mountain out of a molehill!

If he didn’t fire it, it would lay idle, but firing it would still somewhat diminish the enemy’s combat power.

On the other hand, shooting made the enemy send a one-star spaceship each time, which gave him a headache.

After seven or eight occurrences, Du Gang finally returned to the spaceship out of helplessness.

“No more firing, they have too many one-star spaceships! ”

According to Barara, the Tuoba family had tens of thousands of one-star spaceships under their name. Him shooting one down each time was utterly pointless.

Soon, after another jump, suddenly Barara cried out in surprise, “We can’t jump from here anymore!”

“Someone has sealed space!”

“What?”

Du Gang asked doubtfully, only to see Hong Chong and the others flying towards them from hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.

Barara quickly suggested, “They definitely have a treasure that can seal space. Du Gang, the Ancient God Spear can break the laws. You head down there and shoot a spear in the opposite direction. We have to escape!”

Looking at the rapidly approaching figures of Hong Chong and the others in the distance, he didn’t hesitate. He quickly jumped off the spaceship, transformed into a giant, aimed in a direction, and fiercely shot out.

Meanwhile, Barara quickly drove the Ancient God ship over there.

“Hurry over!”

Barara’s voice came through his earpiece.

Du Gang swiftly flew in that direction.

At the back, Hong Chong and others were catching up. The distance had already been reduced by hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

“Star Obliteration Fist!”

When Hong Chong was still about ten kilometers away from Du Gang, he had no choice but to throw a punch in desperation.

Suddenly, a visible blue fist imprint emerged from his hand, quickly flying towards Du Gang.

Even more incredulous was the fact that the fist imprint kept growing as it flew.

By the time it reached right behind Du Gang, it was already a kilometer in size.

Feeling the strong wind coming from behind, Du Gang turned his head and glanced back. While controlling his flight with gravity, he twisted his body and activated the Ancient God’s power, aiming at the blue fist imprint and striking it heavily.

At this moment, both fists had reached kilometer-size.

One was a real fist that was over a thousand three hundred meters, and the other was a deceptive fist that was a kilometer in size. As they collided, an invisible force burst forth.

“Puff puff!”

To everyone’s surprise, Du Gang was critically hit at this moment, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

He glanced at Hong Chong before quickly shrinking in size, jumping onto the Ancient God ship. As soon as he landed, they disappeared under Barara’s control.

“Damn!”

Hong Chong’s face was full of anger, he didn’t expect that despite using the laws weapon, they still let the Ancient God escape.

“God Artifact…”

He secretly swore that he would get that God Artifact of the Ancient God!

At this moment, Tuoba Hong jumped down from the spaceship, shaking his head, and said, “They’ve run away. The distance they jumped was too great, our spaceships can’t track them…”

Before Hong Chong could get angry, he quickly made a suggestion, “We can go to the Wasteland Star Area. Earth is Du Gang’s birth planet. Although he has become an Ancient God, I refuse to believe he has no feelings for the planet he was born on…”

Hong Chong nodded after listening, “Alright, we’re heading for Earth!”

When the Ancient God ship reappeared, it was already in a very unfamiliar star area.

Seeing Du Gang injured, Barara didn’t listen to him this time and directly jumped more than a hundred light-years away, escaping the enemy’s pursuit.

“Are you okay?!”

Du Gang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head,

“I’m fine, just my internals got shattered…”

The body of a fourth-rank Ancient God is very strong. Even after taking a hit from a planet-level power, he could still withstand it. However, his insides were shattered by the punch.

Hearing this, Balala quickly said, “Du Gang, inside the Life Ring that the old master left for you, there’s a green fruit that can restore vitality. You need to eat it fast…”

Du Gang hurried to open the Life Ring, immersed his mind into it, and started searching.

This Life Ring was the one he accepted earlier. Not only could it hold objects, but it could also hold living beings.

Soon, he found the fruit that Balala had mentioned, took it out, and immediately swallowed one.

Instantly, his body was filled with life energy, and a yuan force circulated in his internal organs.

He could feel that his body’s self-repair function was rapidly reconstructing his internal organs with the support of this life fruit.

After eating exactly ten of these fruits, his body finally recovered.

“What on earth is this thing? The effect is so good?”

He was unexpectedly astonished that even shattered internal organs could be repaired!

“It’s called a Green Bud Fruit, a natural fruit with a very strong life force. The old master often ate it to heal wounds…”

Green Bud Fruit? He had never heard of it before!

Du Gang laughed and said: “Why don’t you tell me how much this stuff is worth

“Hmm——”

Balala thought for a moment and said, “I can’t tell you exactly how much it costs as I’ve never seen it sold in the Milky Way Galaxy. However, I believe that one of these fruits is more than enough to buy an entire Milky Way Empire…”

“What?!”

Du Gang’s mouth gaped open in shock, “Are you saying that I just ate the equivalent of ten Milky Way Empires?”

“Not so exaggerated, but yes, it’s quite valuable. Oh, I forgot to tell you, the reason for the high price of this fruit isn’t that it can heal wounds, but that it can prolong life!”

“Fruit that prolongs life?”

Du Gang quickly took out a Green Bud Fruit and began examining it closely.

Just by looking at its appearance, it was very similar to a green apple. Who would have known that it’s worth so much?

He held this Green Bud Fruit in his hand, playing and examining it, asking, “How much can this fruit increase lifespan?”

“It can add a century!”

“A century?” Du Gang didn’t believe that by a ‘century’, Balala meant a traditional one hundred years. He asked: “How many years does a century refer

“A century is 10,081 years!”

“That many?!” Du Gang’s face was one of astonishment.

“You mean, I just added ten thousand years to my lifespan?!

Balala said, “The life span of an Ancient God is endless. The old master told me that Ancient Gods don’t die of old age…”

Du Gang then realized that the Ancient Gods had always resided in the center of the universe, a place where life could last exceedingly long.

He paused a moment, quickly immersed his mind into his Storage Ring, and swiftly began to count the Green Bud Fruits inside. “Five hundred and eighty!”

His face instantly broke into a delighted expression.

Doesn’t this mean that even if he doesn’t cultivate anymore, his life could be prolonged for at least five million eight hundred thousand years?

“Du Gang, there’s trouble!”

At that moment, Balala suddenly cried out in alarm.

Du Gang’s face changed from joy to seriousness, and he asked nervously, “What happened?”

Balala quickly pulled up the Zilan Star Region’s network and said, “Tuoba Hong issued a statement, saying he’s headed to your Earth to take an eye for an eye; he intends to destroy Earth as well…”

“Bastard!”

Du Gang cursed in anger. The thing he had been most worried about turned out to be true!

“Turn around, we’re going back!”

“It’s too late now, Du Gang. If you go back now, you’re signing your death warrant. They have already entered the Solar System!”

Balala quickly said: “In your Solar System, there are also Resonance Shield Generators. All of them are currently activated. I’ve already run the calculations. Considering their spaceship, it will take at least two days to arrive…”

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go back quickly!” Du Gang said anxiously.

“If we go back now, we can continue to lead them on…”

“That’s not possible!”

Balala calmly said, “Du Gang, you must know if you go back now, they will

inevitably see how much you care about Earth. Then, they won’t be stupid enough to chase you, they will surely lie in wait on Earth for you!” Hearing this, Du Gang’s face became grave, and he fell silent.

The thing he feared most was finally happening.

What he dreaded the most was being forced to choose between himself and Earth.

Would he sacrifice himself to protect the Earth?

Or would he abandon Earth?

Seeing Du Gang suddenly become silent, Balala started to hesitate.

She did have another solution, but she didn’t plan to tell him.

In her opinion, Earth was just a very ordinary planet. It would be the best choice for Du Gang to disregard Earth.

But seeing how upset he was now, she felt a bit heartbroken. Finally, after much deliberation, she decided to speak.

“Du Gang, I do have a method that can save Earth!”

Hearing this, the originally dispirited Du Gang quickly raised his head, anxiously asking: “What method?!”

“Alas!”

Balala sighed, saying: “The old master possesses a divine talisman called Time Rune, created by those at or above the Eternal Level, and it’s extremely precious…”

Seeing Du Gang’s puzzled face, she began to explain the function of the Time

Rune.

“The so-called Time Rune is a grand cosmic skill that, through the manipulation of time laws, can slow down or speed up the time flow in certain small worlds! ”

“Time laws?” Du Gang was taken aback. This was the first time he heard about this concept of time laws.

“To slow down or speed up the flow of time, is it really possible?”

He was astonished, in his understanding time was irreversible, always moving forward…

Hearing him say this, Balala scratched her head, her expression somewhat awkward.

“Ah, Balala doesn’t cultivate, Balala made a mistake…”

After hesitating for a while, she explained: “The essence of the cosmos is actually composed of ten fundamental laws!”

“They are the eight lower laws: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind,

Lightning, Light and Dark!”

“In addition to the two higher laws: Time and Space!”

Balala recited from the script: “Er, actually everyone possesses at least one attribute, or so-called affinity…”

“The people from Earth who have awakened up until now, although they differ in their abilities, ultimately converge on a common path, returning to the ten great laws…”

“Well, it’s too early to teach you about the laws now, generally laws are only encountered once you reach or surpass the Stellar Level…”

Balala kept talking, scratching her head perplexedly, mumbling to herself, “But, even if you use the Time Rune, it seems useless as you haven’t grasped the state of mind yet…”

“State of mind?”

Du Gang was also puzzled, Balala’s diverging speech had confused him too.

After some confusion, Balala finally regained her composure and said: “I really don’t understand these things, we Al life forms cannot comprehend them, but, I can tell you about the old master’s situation, you can analyze it yourself!”

“The old master was a rank five Ancient God, equivalent to the peak of the Stellar Level in the universe, his law attribute was Metal, and his combat technique was the ‘Sky-breaking Strike’, which is a technique to be used in

conJunct10n Witn tne Ancient GOd spear…”

At this point, she added an explanation: “I heard the old master say that Ancient Gods possess many combat techniques that are stored in inheritable memories, once he passed them on to you, they all are stored in your mind…”

Du Gang knew about this, his mind was filled with an endless amount of knowledge, all brought over by the Ancient God’s inheritance.

But since he had emerged, he encountered a series of troubles and up until now, he had no time to examine the specific details of those memories.

“The Ancient God Technique is just a basic cultivation method, used only to advance the realm of the Ancient God. The real combat techniques are all in the inheritance, and you have to learn them yourself…”

“The old master was extremely talented, he said he had understood the basic laws when he was at the Planet Level…”

Du Gang roughly understood and said: “You mean to use the Time Rune in the

Life Space and practice a combat technique with the aim to grasp the laws?”

Balala nodded and smiled: ‘Exactly, that’s what I mean. I heard the old master say that a Planet-level with laws could be a match for Stellar Level powerhouses…”

“Was that Hong Chong who locked the space earlier actually understanding the laws of space?” Du Gang recalled the previous situation where he was unable to jump and asked with a frown.

“No!” Balala laughed: “I looked up Hong Chong’s past. He didn’t grasp the laws. He likely used the Sky Covering Umbrella to seal off the space. It’s an old artifact possessing the laws of space, and he got it from the Hidden Dragon Empire’s auction. There’s a record of it online…”

Du Gang nodded, asking: “Then what is the ratio of time rate that this Time

Rune can provide?”

“One to a thousand!”

“Two days’ time means you have two thousand days, which is equivalent to more than five years!”

Balala continued: “During these five years, don’t just comprehend the laws, you should also cultivate the Ancient God Technique. If you can cultivate to the fourth level, you can wield the combat power of the Planet Level, and then you don’t have to be afraid of them!”

On the subject of cultivation, she actually doesn’t Imow much. It was only after many years of unintentionally hearing Du Kang talk about it that she remembered.

“I understand!”

Du Gang nodded and asked: “Can you help me get in touch with Chu Zixuan?

“I can. I left a signal device on Earth…”

Shortly after, she connected to the Earth Alliance Headquarters.

The face of Chu Zixuan appeared on the screen.

“Du Gang?”

He exclaimed in surprise.

Du Gang quickly said: “Never mind how I managed to infiltrate here, listen to me now …”

“The Tuoba clan has brought along a Planet-level powerhouse towards the solar system. Whatever you do, do not turn off the resonator…”

“They will probably reach Earth in two days. When the time comes, I’ll contact you to open Earth’s coordinates for me to jump over…”

Chu Zixuan frowned: “Can you stop them?”

Du Gang nodded and said: “I don’t know, but I have a 50% chance…”

Chu Zixuan exhaled deeply, saying: “I see. We won’t turn off the resonator for these two days. When you contact us two days later, we will open Earth’s node for you…”

After hanging up the call, Du Gang looked at Balala, saying: “When I go in, if the time is up, remember to call me out!”

After saying this, he entered the Life Space..
