Chapter 519 The Projection of the Cosmic Emperor

Once your combat power exceeds 10,000, you can try to cultivate [Instant Teleportation]. Once you have mastered [Instant Teleportation], you will no longer be afraid of getting lost and can venture into spatial vortexes.

Lu Mingxin, Zhang Zhi, and Fei Ying's combat power had reached 10,000, and they had just begun to study the cultivation method of [Instant Teleportation]. Zhou Nan, however, was already moving around and playing around on the side.

"Qigong practice can be roughly divided into three stages: refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into the Dao. To master the use of teleportation, one must reach the second stage."

Zhou Nan pondered the cultivation method of [Instant Teleportation] in his mind.

To succeed in the technique of "instant teleportation," one must first find the target's aura to locate it. This requires a sufficiently strong mental field or a powerful soul. In other words, the stronger one's mental field or soul, the clearer and wider the range of perception, making it easier to find the target's aura.

After finding the target's aura, to achieve "instant teleportation," one still needs to enter the "void."

"Void" refers to emptiness, where there is no time or space, and it is vast and boundless. Once you enter the void, you will have great freedom.

Once you enter the void, you will no longer be bound by space and time. In reality, people may be separated by thousands of miles, but in the void, they can be very close. The void is like a wormhole that allows you to quickly reach your destination.

Therefore, "teleportation" is actually traversing space using the void as a medium.

Zhou Nan had previously heard the cosmic powerhouse Zhen Dejun mention the Void Heaven Sword, the Void Heaven Law, and the Heavenly Soul. Combining this with the cultivation method of [Instant Teleportation], he gained some new insights.

"Qigong emphasizes refining qi into spirit. In the Qigong tradition, this 'spirit' is defined as mind, soul, and temperament. In modern terms, it's mostly the celestial soul among the three souls and seven spirits, which roams the void! And we players are, in fact, the celestial soul!"

Zhou Nan felt his mind was clear, but when he actually tried to use [Instant Teleportation], he found that his mental field was not strong. He could only sense the "qi" of others within a ten-mile radius, and he could not sense anything beyond that.

Furthermore, distance does not seem to be absolute. If the target's aura is strong enough, it can be sensed even if it is very far away.

For example, when Zhou Nan sensed Master Wu Tian using the [Instant Teleportation] method, he felt that Master Wu Tian's aura was as bright and dazzling as the blazing sun.

This kind of "qi" can probably be sensed even from hundreds or thousands of miles away.

On the contrary, the aura of Lan Yuping, Ma Chaoqian, Xiaokugong and others was very weak. If the aura of ordinary players is a ball of fire, then their aura is at most a firefly.

Zhou Nan is currently in his Heavenly Soul form and is in the Void World, so he can skip the "Return to Void" technique.

In the following days, Zhou Nan devoted himself to studying [Instant Teleportation], and he made considerable progress. At least within a ten-mile radius, he could easily locate Master Wu Tian, ​​Lu Mingxin, Zhang Zhi, Fei Ying, and others, and achieve [Instant Teleportation].

That was enough for him to reach the spatial vortex.

Three more days passed, and Zhang Zhi and the others had mastered the [Instant Teleportation] technique quite well. Wu Tian's plan was finally put into practice.

Following his instructions, everyone simultaneously entered the small spatial vortex.

As Zhou Nan stepped into one of them, he felt as if he had entered a gray passage that stretched endlessly forward. Everywhere was shrouded in a hazy mist, and everything looked the same in all directions. Looking further back, the entrance had disappeared.

"Ding, system notification: You have entered an illegal area. In this area, you will be free from system supervision, all system functions will be disabled, and all cards will be unusable. Warning, you have entered..."

The system notification sound stopped abruptly, as if the battery had died. Zhou Nan wondered if there was no signal.

He looked around again and said, "This kind of environment is quite stuffy. You can go crazy if you stay here for too long. Fortunately, I can feel Master Wutian's aura here, and I can leave anytime I want."

Zhou Nan felt relieved and began to explore casually ahead.

Ordinary players would have difficulty moving around in this spatial vortex due to the weightless environment, but Zhou Nan, who can now conjure the Somersault Cloud, can move freely.

Zhou Nan kept walking forward, and after about twenty minutes, he finally discovered something unusual.

In front of it floated a small, black cube-shaped box. The box looked quite high-tech and hovered there, occasionally emitting silver arcs of electricity. There were many crisscrossing fine lines on its surface, and blue light flowed along those lines.

Zhou Nan couldn't see any attribute information about this thing, but he vaguely felt that it was closely related to this spatial vortex.

At that moment, the small black cube suddenly projected light and shadow, within which lay a figure completely pixelated. The figure looked human and spoke in a magnetic voice: "With thirty spatial locks, I will seal the void of illusion, leaving an interdimensional passage. At the same time, I will shatter all the spatial locks, and the central interdimensional passage will open, connecting the vast starry sky with this void of illusion..."

"A spatial lock? This must be it! I can't use the system's power here, and I can't use the cards. To break this spatial lock, I'll probably have to rely on ki gong. Master Wu Tian said to use ki gong waves, and this must be what he meant. Of course, I can also use the Light Radiation Technique..."

Zhou Nan hesitated slightly, feeling that the mosaic-covered guy was deliberately trying to break the spatial lock, but he didn't dwell on it at the moment, since it was Master Wu Tian's request.

"Eat my Haoyang Qi Gong Wave!"

Zhou Nan calmed his mind and began to circulate his internal energy. He brought his palms to his waist and abdomen, gathered his strength for a moment, and then slowly released the energy wave.

hum!

The energy wave released by Zhou Nan was as thick as an adult's thigh, and it struck the black cube-shaped box accurately, moving straight forward.

Click, click...

The spatial lock was not sturdy. When it was hit by the energy wave, it did not move, but cracks quickly appeared on its surface. Soon, flames burst out, burning into a ball, then twisting and deforming, and finally exploding into ashes with a bang.

At that very moment, space trembled, and many dark cracks appeared in the surrounding space, visible to the naked eye.

"This is bad! This feeling... it's like space itself is collapsing. If we don't leave, we'll surely die!"

Zhou Nan quickly used Instant Teleportation, and without any unexpected incidents, he traversed space and instantly returned to Wu Tian's side!

Wu Tian placed a hand on Zhou Nan's shoulder, replenishing his vital energy, and said, "Well done! The spatial vortex you just entered has collapsed, just as I expected, affecting the jade wall..."

"Really? That's good!" Zhou Nan looked back and saw that the spatial vortex he had entered earlier was gone. He wondered what would have happened if he hadn't been able to come back earlier.

Will he just kick the bucket? His soul be scattered to the winds?

It is possible to revive again.

Unfortunately, he is no longer able to verify it, nor does he want to.

Next, the [Demon], Ape Warrior, and other players teleported out one after another. After the last small spatial vortex collapsed and disappeared, the jade wall in the largest spatial vortex began to vibrate with cracking sounds.

"At that very moment!"

With a loud shout, Wu Tian leaped into the air, his body shooting like an arrow into the spatial vortex. He then thrust his palm horizontally, and with a thunderous boom, the jade disc, which had been struck by the palm, opened from the middle to the left and right, revealing a dazzling light.

"It's done!" Wu Tian was overjoyed and quite excited. He turned around, cupped his hands to thank everyone, and said, "Thank you all for your help. I have been trapped in this realm for too long. Today I can finally leave. You have no physical bodies, so you cannot pass through this gate. Do not try to enter. The green hills remain unchanged, and the green waters flow forever. We will meet again if fate allows."

After saying this, Wu Tian flew straight into the radiant world behind the jade disc.

"Master Roshi is gone just like that? Gone from this world? Will he ever come back?"

Piglet called out to Zhou Nan from afar.

As soon as Wu Tian left, his auspicious cloud flying boat melted away and disappeared. Pig Xiaoshuai is still unable to condense his somersault cloud, so he has nowhere to land and floats alone, looking quite lonely.

Who knows?

Zhou Nan replied, but before he could finish speaking, a thunderous sound rang out. Zhou Nan turned around and saw that the sound came from behind the jade wall. Soon after, a figure flew back from within it.

"Master Roshi!"

"Ancestor!"

"What happened?"

"Has the patriarch been defeated?"

"What's behind that door...?"

A commotion erupted, and everyone could clearly see that the figure flying backwards was none other than Wu Tian.

Zhou Nan was also very puzzled, not understanding what had happened.

Quite a few Ape Warriors players rushed forward to support Wu Tian.

Wu An, however, looked very serious. He waved his hand at the crowd and shouted, "Retreat!"

"Ancestor!"

"retreat?"

"Is there something dangerous behind that door?"

The crowd murmured again, and Wu Tian said, "I've made a huge mistake! Everyone, retreat! A monster is coming!"

"monster?"

"What monster?"

"The teacher is also afraid of monsters..."

Wu Tian didn't explain further. With a flick of his sleeve, he created a strong wind that blew all the players, including Zhou Nan, away to a distance of over a hundred meters.

At this moment, light and shadow flickered behind the jade gate, and a strange figure stepped out.

Zhou Nan was stunned when he saw the figure.

The figure, composed of flowing mosaics, was about ten feet tall and looked like a tall man.

"Isn't this the guy who appeared in the spatial lock projection just now? Wow, so he wasn't intentionally blurred out, he really looks like this?"

Zhou Nan muttered to himself, of course he couldn't see any of that guy's attributes either.

The mosaic-like figure that emerged was ferocious, ignoring everyone around him, and spoke to himself: "I've finally found it! The embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao, a world with independent rules! Good! Good! Good! Good! Good! I, the Emperor, have arrived! All beings of this world, assimilate to me!"

At this very moment, on the Fiery Pirate Ship at the rear, the core guard Lan Yuping's expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed in surprise, "The Cosmic Emperor!"

Xiao Kugong, standing nearby, asked, "Cosmic Emperor? What is that? Is it very powerful?"

Lan Yuping said, "He is a terrifying existence that can threaten the core!"

"Could it threaten the core?" Xiao Kugong asked. "How could that be?"

"Nothing is impossible, at least that's what's recorded in the core database. This Cosmic Emperor is an incredible existence, very powerful? Now it seems that this place should be a trap set by the Cosmic Emperor's henchmen to lure him here. Wu Tian unintentionally lured the Cosmic Emperor here."

"What would happen?"

"Perhaps a war affecting the entire card game world will break out ahead of schedule, and our lives will be in danger!"

"Is it that serious?"

"It's even more serious than that!"

"Ah, if only my master were here!"

"Your master?"

"Hmm, you didn't know that the Holy Armored Great Sage of the Dragon-Slaying Empire is my master...?"

Ahead, Zhou Nan realized that the pixelated figure in front of him was the Cosmic Emperor, and he immediately dared not be careless in the slightest.

You should know that just the two cosmic serpents that pull this guy's chariot, after being set as BOSS by the core, have a life value of 300 billion. If this Cosmic Emperor has attributes, it will definitely be even more outrageous.

Wu Tian stepped forward again, as if to protect everyone behind him. He shouted, "This monster is very powerful. In this world, there are probably only a handful of people who can harm it. You are no match for it at all, and you don't even have the right to hurt it. Run for your lives. I will buy you some time."

"Ancestor!"

"This...this monster is that strong?"

"What exactly is he?"

"We are willing to fight alongside our ancestor!"

The group of Ape Warriors players were full of enthusiasm and most of them adopted the starting stance for the Chi Wave.

Wu Tian's expression turned serious as he shouted, "Nonsense! This isn't an ordinary battle. Do you think you can be resurrected after you die?"

"Wha...what do you mean?"

"Does this mean that if you're killed by this monster, you won't respawn?"

"Ancestor, we..."

The Ape Warriors players wavered, but Wu Tian added, "If I'm not mistaken, if you're killed by this monster, you will truly be annihilated!"

"Ha ha!"

The figure covered in mosaics burst into laughter: "You actually called me a monster? Fine, the word 'monster' at least represents your reverence for me. I will allow you to become a part of me!"

After saying that, he reached out and grabbed forward, and ripples appeared in the space. An unknown spatial fluctuation was generated, and Zhou Nan immediately felt a great force engulfing him, forcibly pulling him towards the Cosmic Emperor.

Zhou Nan wasn't the only one affected by this force; everyone around him, including Wu Tian, ​​was also affected.

Zhou Nan was powerless to resist, as were Lu Mingxin, Zhang Zhi, Fei Ying, and the other ape-wielding players. They were all being pulled by invisible threads, uncontrollably moving closer to the Cosmic Emperor.

Only Wu Tian could withstand it.

"How dare you!"

He roared, his body surging with energy, and threw a punch. The fist's light appeared, as red as blood, and it slammed directly into the chest of the Cosmic Emperor.

The Cosmic Emperor snorted, and a large hole was punched through his chest. But the lumps like those in the Masseca wriggled and quickly repaired the hole.

However, the methods used by the Cosmic Emperor to bind everyone were also affected. Zhou Nan and the others immediately felt a loosening of their grip, and the immense force binding them disappeared.

However, two Ape Warrior players were not rescued. Like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, they were grabbed by the Cosmic Emperor and brought before him. The Cosmic Emperor opened his mouth and inhaled, and the bodies of the two Ape Warrior players were pulverized into tiny particles, which then quickly flew into the Cosmic Emperor's mouth.

"Tsk tsk, soul, memory, energy, give me everything! I am the great, immortal Unicron of the Universe, hahahahaha!"

The Cosmic Emperor let out a maniacal laugh, and the next moment he used the same method to try to capture more people.
