Forced to walk in the world of anime

If it were just a single ancient divine weapon, it wouldn't seem like much. But this thing is the very first ancient divine weapon! Rumors about this ancient divine weapon have been rampant, making it the most mysterious of all. Aside from knowing its existence and its general appearance, there's practically no other information. No one has ever seen this spear traversing the world in reality; it's as if it's been hidden away. But to hide an ancient divine weapon instead of using it is a terrible waste.

"Oh dear! It's just an ancient divine weapon! It's like everyone else doesn't have one."

The hot-tempered young man roared, and the greatsword in his hand cracked open, with a shell about two centimeters thick rapidly peeling away, revealing a silver-white greatsword.

At this moment, the greatsword became extraordinary. Not only was it incredibly heavy, but its sharpness, the power and special abilities of a divine weapon were also on full display!

Chu Xing raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, stared at the greatsword for a moment, and muttered to himself, "Isn't it said that heavy swords have no edge? This looks pretty sharp, doesn't it? But, young man, do you intend to defeat me with this thing?"

Ancient divine weapons are indeed powerful, otherwise there would not have been such a saying: "He who obtains an ancient divine weapon will rule the world." From this saying, we can see that ancient divine weapons seem to have the absolute power to dominate everything.

And that was indeed the case. Just like Kelvin, whose ancient divine weapon exploded from his chest, generating terrifying power that directly propelled him to the ninth step, even Chu Xing found it somewhat troublesome to deal with, let alone others.

However, this hot-tempered young man cannot be compared to Kelvin. Although the former is powerful, he is only an early-stage inheritor of the seventh step. The latter, on the other hand, is not only at the peak of the seventh step, but also one of the earliest inheritors.

The difference in strength between inheritors from different eras is truly vast, because the assistance they receive from the ancient inheritance is immense, allowing them to progress by leaps and bounds, with changes every single day. Let alone a difference of two or three months, or even three to five months, even a single week can create a noticeable gap between two initially evenly matched individuals.

Therefore, even with the help of an ancient divine weapon, this hot-tempered young man wouldn't be as ridiculously powerful as Kelvin. Chu Xing felt no fear or worry whatsoever.

However, even a lion must go all out to hunt a rabbit. The concept of a successor is already quite absurd; who knows what unexpected things might happen!

"kill!"

With a loud shout, the hot-tempered young man unleashed a sword strike without any fancy moves. His hands, veins bulging, lashed out with his sword! The strike, seemingly simple, was so heavy, so swift, and so impossible to defend against.

This is the domineering power of an ancient divine weapon; even the most basic strike is impossible to withstand. If Chu Xing hadn't been genuinely stronger than this young man and also wielded an ancient divine weapon, he probably would have had to run away in the face of such an overwhelming and powerful sword strike.

brush!

The blue blade of the Tianhe Town water gun gleamed with a blue light, and a seemingly invisible yet tangible stream of energy swirled around the shaft. This energy didn't appear to be gaseous, but rather liquid, as if countless droplets of water were condensing and being absorbed by the spear. It was as if the spear had, in a short time, nurtured a vast ocean within it, acquiring its immensity.

And it seemed that this was why the spearhead and blade of the Tianhe Town water gun had noticeably increased in size, more than doubling in size. The blue blade now resembled a sharp blade forged from the deepest essence of the ocean.

"It's just an ancient divine weapon, what's the big deal! These things can give you some confidence, can't they!"

Chu Xing wielded his spear with a flourish, his arms instantly unleashing a terrifying, devastating power. The spear, which seemed to have swallowed an entire ocean, thrust out fiercely following his movements!

There are no fancy moves; the power unleashed by these ancient divine weapons is so terrifying that any flashy techniques would only be a hindrance. Pure offense is all that's needed. In this world, speed is the only thing that cannot be broken, and strength is the only thing that cannot be destroyed. Under extreme power, nothing can survive.

boom!

With a single sword strike, a massive canyon, seven or eight hundred meters wide and seemingly endless in both length and depth, was carved out of this fictional world. The power of this sword strike was truly terrifying.

Does this mean the hot-tempered young man won?

Actually, no!

Such a terrifying sword strike didn't harm Chu Xing at all. Instead, the water spear from Tianhe Town gave the hot-tempered young man a thorough stab. If Chu Xing hadn't held back, the hot-tempered young man would have been eliminated immediately.

The two stunned inheritors, along with the plump and thin girls beside Chu Xi'er, and Wen Xiaohua who had just caught up, were all shocked.

"That's amazing..."

The blonde girl seemed to be thinking about something, staring intently at Chu Xing as if she wanted to imprint that image completely in her mind and never forget it.

After a moment, the blonde girl's mind went through a mental storm, and she finally nodded to herself, then shouted sweetly to Chu Xing, "Darling, I love you! I want to have your baby!"

"puff!"

Chu Xing was startled by the shouting. "Is she crazy?! What kind of nonsense is she spouting at people? Saying 'I love you' to someone right next to you on the street? She's definitely seriously ill! Why can mentally ill people participate in supernatural competitions? Are mentally ill people really considered supernatural?"

Wen Xiaohua couldn't help but laugh, but seeing Chu Xing's eyes that seemed to want to kill him, he quickly put on a cold face and said to the blonde girl in a gloomy tone, "Hey, hey, hey! Little girl, what did you say? How could my older brother possibly be interested in you? You have no chest, no butt, and no age. I wouldn't want you even if you were given to me, let alone my older brother."

The blonde girl was indignant, hands on her hips, and huffed, "You're talking nonsense! I'll improve over time. One day I'll be so good that you'll all fall at my feet. Don't you think so, Big Wolf!"

"... "

The giant werewolf fell silent. Although it was just a werewolf, a summoned beast, its intelligence was remarkably high. It understood that it couldn't speak carelessly, or it might get killed! Seeing how easily that ominous star faced such a powerful sword strike, the giant werewolf momentarily felt that Chu Xing might be the strongest person in the supernatural world. Chu Xi'er might have defensive treasures, but compared to Chu Xing, she seemed to be a level weaker.

Seeing that the giant wolf didn't speak, the blonde girl pouted and glared at it fiercely. Then, her eyes sparkled, and she said, "Anyway, I'm going to stick to you from now on! You can't escape, I can find you."

###483.boss###

"Ah! Are you crazy?!"

Chu Xing finally couldn't hold back and blurted out his curses. Didn't he know his sister was right there?! What kind of talk was that? What would he do if he got beaten up because of this? Would he need to go back to the real world and get revenge?!

Then, fearing that the blonde girl might say something even more nonsensical, such as, "That's not what you said last night," they were also worried.

Chu Xing exerted force with both hands, intending to eliminate all three of them so that the final winner could be determined more quickly!

"and many more--"

Just then, the swordsman who had been sitting silently to the side seemed to sense Chu Xing's killing intent and immediately spoke up, cautiously asking, "May I say a few words?"

"You only have a few words to say," Chu Xing replied coldly. But that was tantamount to agreeing.

The sword immortal quickly said, "I saw a secret realm on the way here. It exuded an aura of life, and it seemed that an unidentified object was being nurtured within it, and it was incredibly powerful. I wonder if this thing might be the boss of this world? If so, you might need to stay here for us. After all, you need cannon fodder to clear the way for you, right?"

Seemingly fearing that Chu Xing was a hot-tempered person who might go back on his word and kill them all, the sword immortal spoke at an exceptionally fast pace. Fortunately, everyone present was exceptionally strong, and even with the rapid speech, they could hear every word.

"Can this world still support life?"

Chu Xing stroked his chin, his eyes full of question marks. This was supposed to be a fictional world, where the contestants should be fighting each other. How could there be a particularly powerful native creature? Goodness, this brought countless uncertainties to their chances of winning!

Regardless, Chu Xing was indeed somewhat interested in this thing, and the killing intent in his eyes softened. This relieved the swordsman, who quickly added, "It shouldn't really be considered a life form, perhaps just a program. But this program might evolve into an exceptionally powerful being in the future. At that time, one or two people definitely won't be able to defeat it. Only by uniting and attacking together can we have a chance of winning. At least that's what I think. You can go and see if I still need everyone to attack together. If I don't, it's not too late to eliminate us then."

"... "

Chu Xing didn't answer, because this world was inherently peculiar, with many strange and unusual things existing within it. Even though he knew this was a world where they would compete, the world was so exquisite that the existence of such a thing didn't seem too outrageous.

And when you're playing a game, there has to be something different about it!

"What you said does interest me. I'll spare your life and let you clear the way. But regardless of whether there's a boss or not, I'll still send you all away once everything is settled. There's no way around it; in competitions, there's usually only one winner, you understand?" Chu Xing smiled, a smile that hoped the other party would understand.

The three men felt an overwhelming chill, but they also understood that being able to continue living like dogs here was already a good thing, so they immediately nodded in agreement.

Anyway, these inheritors weren't originally destined to be number one or two; they just gained a little more value by being eliminated a little later. The longer they can wait, the higher their value will be. So they'll drag it out as long as they can. If they can't, it doesn't matter; after all, this is largely determined by fate, with ten parts human will and nine parts destiny.

...

However, Chu Xing and the others might not know that the unidentified object was actually an extremely dazzling existence. At least the contestants had learned from different sources that there was a huge embryo somewhere in this world.

The embryo was now right in front of the onlookers. They were completely baffled by it, because the major organizers hadn't revealed anything about it to them beforehand!

When they looked up and saw the seven major powers sitting in the stands, they found that they were equally bewildered, seemingly unaware of the enormous embryo—or rather, it wasn't even part of their plans!

One of the leaders of the seven major forces asked in bewilderment, "What is this thing? Why would something like this appear in that program? We've tested it dozens of times before and never seen anything like this. Could it be that this program is also alive? Can it grow more things on top of the original one after using it for a period of time?"

Naturally, no one would answer immediately, because the situation at this point was somewhat unbelievable, and it would take them time to understand it.

After a moment's hesitation, one of them said, "Uh, guys, do you remember that there was supposed to be artificial intelligence in the ancient treasure? If I said that this program was originally an artificial intelligence, wouldn't that suddenly make sense?"

"You mean that during our testing, the AI ​​didn't show its true colors, or rather, it hid away, making us think it was just a program. And now, the AI ​​couldn't stand being idle and finally decided to cause trouble? Oh dear, wasn't it supposed to be that the AI ​​couldn't cause us any harm? What's going on? No, wait, it doesn't seem like harm at all. It's just something like a prank, since this is supposed to be a fictional world."

"The AI ​​in this program is really quite adorable. But it doesn't really matter. This is just a competition like a game anyway. No matter how much difficulty the AI ​​increases, it can't injure the real competitors. As long as that's achieved, what's the big deal for you? It's just that our lovely competitors might get a bit overwhelmed by such a series of twists and turns. Let's wait and see!" The middle-aged man from China smiled and continued watching the screen. Although they held high positions, they were still very interested in the battle between these competitors standing at the pinnacle of the supernatural world!

However, there's a very real problem: just how powerful can this unknown embryo be? What if everyone gets easily defeated by this embryo? That would be quite embarrassing, and we wouldn't get to see the ultimate battle in the supernatural world.

###484. They gathered together. ###

In a fictional world.

In a valley of this world, the ground was covered with thick, tube-like structures that seemed to be carrying red liquid... like IV tubing. They didn't know if these were the boss's blood vessels or what, but they were just delivering some kind of red liquid.

But there seem to be quite a lot of these red IV tubes! Looking around, the entire valley is covered with them. The red liquid inside isn't being delivered slowly, but rather at a speed comparable to a maglev train traveling at full speed.

This posture makes it seem as if some unidentified object is rapidly devouring something. It seems to be using this substance to perfect this unidentified object, ultimately achieving transformation!

"elder brother…"

Chu Xi'er softly called out to Chu Xing, her eerie appearance truly frightening. But would someone of Chu Xi'er's strength be afraid? The reason she called out was to ask Chu Xing if he had sensed anything within her.

Chu Xing's gaze turned serious. He examined the red IV tubing for a moment, then said, "This is really strange. This liquid looks like blood. If it is blood, where did so much blood come from? This is very absurd... Wait a minute, haven't we seen a single native creature along this journey? If this blood is from those native creatures, then it seems quite easy to explain. But if I remember correctly, there are hundreds of millions of native creatures in this world. So, it does seem a bit bloody!"

"Darling, I think we should keep going. We won't find anything here, just these strange veins. I think the truly different things are deeper in here." The blonde girl subtly made her presence known; she might be a little clever, but she was still just a child. These days, when you meet someone you like, who wouldn't want to show off a bit?

"You're right."

Chu Xing did not reject the blonde girl's suggestion, but looking at the endless mountains, he felt that they were not so much mountains as they seemed, but rather like the gaping maw of a colossal beast, waiting for them to walk over and then swallow them whole.

However...

Chu Xing wasn't afraid of any demons or monsters, even if he wasn't strong enough to defeat them. But that didn't mean he would retreat!

Since that's the case, let's just go! Any danger needs to be discovered, and it's only when danger is discovered that it can be resolved!

【Drip drip! 】

Just then, a rapid alarm sounded in the ears of each contestant, and before they could react, a line of text suddenly appeared in front of them.

[Due to time constraints, the final battle zone will now begin, with a radius of 2.5 kilometers. Participants must arrive at the final venue within ten minutes, or they will be disqualified.]

"this…"

Chu Xing and his group exchanged glances. Then Chu Xing smiled dismissively, looking at the world that seemed both illusory and real, and said, "This young man couldn't wait any longer? But starting sooner is better than nothing. I also want to know whether the things created by reason are more powerful, or whether our individual power is stronger!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the little divine dragon hidden on his body flew out, quickly grew larger, and hovered above everyone's heads. Chu Xing then leaped up like a roc spreading its wings, sat on the dragon's head, and flew towards the very center of the endless mountain.

"Hey! Is this guy traveling alone? Don't we have the right to ride on the dragon's back?"

The hot-tempered young man, seeing Chu Xing leave alone, grumbled angrily. Chu Xi'er glanced at him; she wanted to tell him that not everyone was qualified to ride on a divine dragon, but after thinking it over, she decided not to shatter the child's beautiful dream. So she said nothing more, her lotus-like steps light as she stepped on the flowing light in the void, flying forward at an equally rapid speed.

Then an awkward situation arose. Chu Xing's divine dragon wasn't actually flying very fast, but apart from Chu Xi'er, no one could keep up! These three inheritors—Wen Xiaohua and the two girls from the Misty Sect, one fat and one thin—didn't have that kind of strength and could only run frantically behind. The result was devastating; they discovered that no matter how hard they ran, they couldn't catch up with the two figures in front of them. Good heavens! Is this the difference between people? Someone can move effortlessly, and you can't catch up no matter how hard you try.

Ten minutes is quite a long time, at least for a group of supernatural beings. Ten minutes is enough for them to travel several thousand kilometers, and within those ten minutes, they finally made it into the final round.

Surprisingly, none of the dozen or so contestants in the final round made the first move. But this was unavoidable, as their attention was almost entirely focused on the point where all the IV tubes were clustered together.

They had initially expected a giant, egg-shaped creature, the embryo of that unknown entity. But that wasn't the case at all! All they saw were countless IV tubes converging at one point and descending underground. They didn't see any strange creatures, but stepping into this final circle, almost everyone felt an immense sense of danger. It truly felt as if this land was no longer just land, but the gaping maw of a colossal beast, waiting for them to enter its prey!

But nothing has happened yet, and no one can be sure what will happen next. Everyone is standing here, waiting for the next turn of events.

During this short time, they also took a closer look at the other contestants.

Good heavens, Wen Xiaohua was completely dumbfounded when he saw the others. Apart from him, the two girls from the Misty Sect, and Chu Xing and his sister, everyone else was an Inheritor. Moreover, among these Inheritors, there were three people who looked particularly intimidating.

These three were naturally the original inheritors, and among the few who stood at the very top in the field of inheritors.

In other words, each of these three people possesses an incredible and boundless strength, just like Kelvin!

To the east stood a man with white hair that reached his waist, making it difficult to discern whether he was male or female. However, his eyes were indeed bright and piercing, and his skin was smooth and delicate, like that of a young boy. His white hair did not make him appear old.

To the west was a woman with a beautiful face, but she also had something strange about her, and it was very noticeable! She had a human upper body and a fish lower body, but she could walk on the ground without any problems.
