“Where is Hong Chong?” Du Gang asked quickly, turning his head.

Bala-la called up an image.

In the Nalan system, Hong Chong had stolen a spaceship and then made a jump.

After a while, Hong Chong reappeared in a second-tier force in a wasteland star system, where he wiped out the local population and also stole a three-star spaceship.

This time, when he appeared again, he was already headed towards the edge of the wasteland star system.

“His escape route is leaving the wasteland star system and fleeing towards the Purple Orchid star region…”

Bala-la smiled and said, “I guess, after you seriously injured him before, he tore the laws of space and landed near the Nalan star system. However, at that time, he didn’t show up but first found a place to recover from his injuries…”

“After a year, he has finally recovered, which is why he appeared, wanting to seize a spaceship and go back…”

At this point, Chu Zixuan frowned, “Could this be a trick?”

Seeing the two look at him, he continued: “As a Planet Level, doesn’t Hong

Chong carry a storage ring with him?”

“Even if it’s not a real space storage, there should be a Space Ring under Quantum tech, shouldn’t there? There should be few spare spaceships in there, shouldn’t there?”

Not to mention Hong Chong, even he himself also carries at least one spacecraft with him.

“Maybe he really didn’t bring it!”

After Du Gang had said this, he continued, “We can’t miss this opportunity,

Bala-la, you go check where he’ll land next, and we’ll go now and kill him!”

He was already itching to kill Hong Chong and then venture into the vast cosmical world.

Seeing him say so, Chu Zixuan had nothing to say, just remind him to be careful.

Soon, Bala-la pinpointed the new location where Hong Chong appeared.

“Turn off the shield, and turn it back on once we leave!”

“Turn it off, right now!”

As soon as Chu Zixuan had finished speaking, the Ancient God disappeared.

When they reappeared, they were already on the edge of the wasteland star region, tens of light-years away.

This area was already a desolate area with no planets.

However, a spaceship was flying alone in space. Upon seeing them appear, the spaceship immediately stopped.

Du Gang then left the Ancient God, carrying his long spear and flying towards the opposite spaceship.

wnen ne was a Kilometer away rrom tne spacesmp, ne stoppea. “Hong Chong, won’t you come out and meet your doom?”

After a mental power was transmitted, there was no response.

Du Gang chuckled, “Are you pretending you’re not in there? Well then, I’ll force you out!”

With that, he lifted his long spear and executed the first kill of the Spear and Lance Nine Kills technique.

The power implied in this shot, in an instant, traversed a kilometer, bashing right against the spaceship where Hong Chong was.

With a clang, the spaceship was pierced straight through.

At the same time, Hong Chong finally revealed himself.

He flew out of the destroyed spaceship, looked at Du Gang from afar, and retorted, “I didn’t expect to be caught up by you!”

Du Gang laughed, “There are a lot of things you didn’t expect, and today is your death anniversary!”

Hong Chong sneered, “With you?” “Is just me, not enough to kill you?”

“Enough to kill me, but what about us?”

The next second, two spaceships appeared in this star region.

At the same time, Hong Chong quickly activated a symbol he had been holding in his hand.

Instantly, the space node of this star region was temporarily sealed off.

Du Gang looked at the two newly arrived old men, frowning, “Are these your reinforcements?”

“Hahaha!”

Hong Chong laughed loudly, “If I, as a Planet Level can’t beat you, what about us three Planet Levels? Do you think we can kill you?!”

Du Gang was silent for two seconds, then calmly asked, “Who are the newcomers?”

The two newcomers, knowing that space was sealed off and not worrying too much about his escape, began to introduce themselves while proceeding to surround Du Gang.

“Ruler of the Purple Orchid Duchy, Zilan Norton!”

“Ruler of the Immortal Tortoise Duchy, Immortal Turtle Zhang Qiang!”

“Purple Orchid, Immortal Turtle…”

Du Gang nodded, sneering, “Have you considered the consequences of making your move?”

“Consequences?”

Zilan Norton laughed, “My life is almost over, I don’t have much time left to live, what do you think?”

Du Gang calmly said, “So you’re not afraid of causing trouble for your Purple Orchid Duchy afterwards?”

“Trouble?”

Zilan Norton sneered, “If I lose, it means I’m already dead. What happens to the others has nothing to do with me!”

The three of them were hunting a strong peer for the first time, and they didn’t rush.

Du Gang looked at another elder and asked, “Do you think the same way?

Immortal Turtle Zhang Qiang laughed, “Exactly!”

“But, I don’t think I will bear the consequences!”

His implication was clear, he didn’t think they three would lose!

Du Gang pondered for a moment, and turned to Hong Chong, asking, “Can I ask you a question before we start fighting?”

Hong Chong probably felt confident of winning and was not in a hurry to make a move. He said matter-of-factly, “Go ahead!”

However, inside, he was itching to act. His lack of action was because he

wanted the other two to make the first move.

The Ancient God was, after all, a planet level player and he also had that burst of power from the last time, hence Hong Chong was worried about being taken down by the Ancient God in the moment of his death.

Du Gang asked, “I want to know the purpose of you hunting me down!”

Hearing his question, Hong Chong chuckled, “We had no grudges in the past, nor recent resentments. The reason we targeted you is because you are on the warrant list of the Milky Way Empire… ”

Du Gang frowned. This was actually news to him.

At that moment, he heard Babara’s voice in his earpiece.

“Du Gang, I really didn’t know about this. After we escaped from the Milky Way

Empire 100,000 years ago, we didn’t dare to reveal ourselves. I always hid on Earth…”

“After coming out with you recently, the furthest I can infiltrate into the network is only the Hidden Dragon Kingdom, Purple Orchid Duchy and Wasteland Star Region. Further than that, I can’t make it, due to the three core limits of the intellect brain…”

“There was no warrant from the Milky Way Empire in the Hidden Dragon Kingdom. The places with direct access to the Milky Way Empire must be within the first three zones…”

Du Gang nodded, asking, “You mean the first three star zones can directly contact the Milky Way Empire. Your Hidden Dragon Kingdom is in the eighth star zone. I want to know, how did you find out about the warrant from the Hidden Dragon Empire?

At this moment, Hong Chong glanced at Zilan Norton and Immortal Turtle Zhang Qiang who were encircling him, their faces looked like they were listening to a story, which left him speechless.

Clearly, these two were also afraid that Ancient God would pull one of them down to death, so they showed relative respect.

However, this question was no big deal. He laughed and said, “It’s simple. A hundred thousand years ago, many people from the Silver Hearts came to our Hidden Dragon Kingdom. There are records about this warrant in our family!”

Du Gang realized, and asked again, “So, actually, many places within the eighth star zone know about the Ancient God and also know about that warrant?”

“Yes!” Hong Chong nodded and laughed, “If you want to blame someone, blame the Milky Way Empire!”

He couldn’t hold back any longer, slowly raising his hand and displaying the gloved fist he wore.

Seeing this, the other two also drew their weapons, ready to fight at any moment.

Seeing this, Du Gang nodded and said, “Alright, I understand. Since this is the case, let me put you out of your misery!”

“Heh heh!”

Hong Chong chuckled, quickly clenching his fist, and began to exhibit his most powerful technique.

The other two did the same, initiating their strongest divine abilities at the start.

One suddenly showed a very ethereal purple orchid behind himself, while the other manifested a giant tortoise shell around his body.

“Why isn’t he transforming?”

At this moment, Immortal Turtle Zhang Qiang asked this question.

He learned from Hong Chong that the Ancient God could transform and grow up to ten thousand meters tall.

But the question was, why was he indifferent to the offensive that was about to reach him from all three sides?

Hong Chong also looked confused, not Imowing what Du Gang was up to.

Zilan Norton, who had already manifested the purple orchid, didn’t think too much. He yelled, “Forget about it, just kill him and we’ll have everything!” After speaking, he quickly pushed the gigantic ethereal purple orchid manifested behind him towards Du Gang.

Seeing his action, the other two also stopped hesitating, and likewise unleashed their most powerful divine abilities.

Du Gang, looking at their actions, suddenly burst out laughing.

“Since you’re in a hurry to die, I’ll do you the favor!”

“Second kill!”

Once he finished his sentence, the spear in his hand instantly transformed into countless spear shadows, firing relentlessly in the direction of the three men.

“Phut! Phut! Phut!”

One second later.

The three men, who had been planning to jointly attack, suddenly found their bodies riddled with numerous spear holes.

Then, “Bang! Bang! Bang!” three sounds of explosion were heard, and the three planet-class powerhouses died in an instant.

At this time, Babara’s voice came through.

“Wow, Du Gang, you are so powerful now!’

He exclaimed, “The old master wasn’t this powerful without transforming…..”

Du Gang chuckled and said lightly, “Power, this is the correct way to use it!”

Hundreds of light years away, on a planet belonging to Hong Chong, the Duke of the Hidden Dragon Kingdom.

In an old-fashioned hall, an old servant stood quietly in front of a lamp, his eyes focused on the dimly glowing lantern.

Suddenly, the lamp he was staring at extinguished in an instant. The old servant sighed at once, ‘Master, I did not expect you…”

After speaking, he followed the contingency plan left by Hong Chong in advance, sending out the pre-prepared information to the predetermined target.

Du Gang was cleaning the battlefield here, trying to find useful things from the three Planet Level individuals, when suddenly Bala shouted, “Du Gang, there’s trouble!”

“What happened?” Du Gang stopped his hand motion and turned his head to look at her.

“Just now, when Hong Chong died, a signal device on his planet in the Hidden Dragon Kingdom, capable of covering hundreds of light years, suddenly transmitted information…”

“Can you identify what information it is?”

Bala quickly replied, “I’m decrypting it…”

Three seconds later, she announced happily, “Decryption successful…”

“Ah, Du Gang, it’s about you being wanted by the Milky Way Empire. Hong

Chong has sent your information to other countries…”

“What?!”

Du Gang was startled, wouldn’t this bring infinite enemies?

In a hurry he asked, “Can it be intercepted?”

Bala shook her head, “It has been sent out entirely, it cannot be stopped…”

“Damn it!”

Du Gang immediately looked upset, he wasn’t afraid of being hunted, but what about Earth?

“Bala, let’s go back first!”

Soon, the Ancient God disappeared and reappeared above Earth.

Chu Zixuan saw them return and hurriedly asked, “You guys are back so soon?… Did Hong Chong escape?”

Du Gang shook his head, “No, I killed Hong Chong!”

“What?”

Chu Zixuan was shocked. It hadn’t been long since they left, and he had already killed Hong Chong?

“Are you so strong now?

Bala proudly said, “My master didn’t just kill a Hong Chong…

“More than one?”

“Yes, there were two other Planet Level powerhouses at the scene, one was the ruler of the Purple Orchid Kingdom, and the other was the ruler of the Immortal Turtle Duchy!”

Chu Zixuan stared at him dumbfounded, in disbelief, “So, you killed three Planet Level individuals at once?!”

Du Gang nodded, “Yes, I killed all three of them, but the problem is, Hong Chong had set up a contingency plan in advance. After his death, he sent information about me to other galaxies…”

As he said this, he explained to Chu Zixuan about the Ancient God and being hunted by the Milky Way Empire.

After hearing these circumstances, Chu Zixuan immediately calmed down and began to ponder.

After a while, he said, “Actually, things are not as bad as you think!” Du Gang turned to look at him, “How so?”

“First of all, the region where the Hidden Dragon Kingdom is located is the eighth star district of the Milky Way, which has no direct contact with the Milky Way Empire!”

“Moreover, his social circle is limited, the eighth star district is very large, containing seven or eight kingdoms and dozens of dukedoms. So, I suspect, his message didn’t leave the eighth star district!”

“Therefore, even if it spreads step by step, the time it takes for the message to reach the third star district, which has direct contact with the Milky Way Empire, will be a long time from now!”

Chu Zixuan said seriously, “Besides, you have to consider one problem. The Ancient God is being hunted by the Milky Way Empire, the reward is fixed and can only be claimed once…”

“What do you think they would prefer? To claim the reward alone, or share it with the whole universe?”

Du Gang’s eyes brightened, “What do you mean?”

Chu Zixuan showed a faint smile, “Therefore, those who have received the message will definitely conceal the truth and quietly investigate whether what Hong Chong said is true…”

“Moreover, even if they confirm that the information is true, they will not march in openly, they will certainly visit quietly, just like Hong Chong did!”

“After all, these Planet Level individuals may seem powerful, but they are nothing in the eyes of Stellar Level powerhouses!”

“Not only the Planet Level, I think even the Stellar Level is the same!”

“For these outer kingdoms, their Stellar Level individuals basically promoted to the Stellar Level by exhausting their potential. They all belong to the weakest Stellar Level. Do you think that if they really get the Ancient God, they dare to publicly go to the Milky Way Empire?”

“They won’t dare, because they have a long way to go, once it’s known, many would try to snatch it!”

“So, even if the Stellar Level powerhouses know it, you don’t need to worry. These individuals will absolutely not act openly, they will definitely visit you quietly, just like Hong Chong did!”

As Chu Zixuan expected, these things happened just like that.

None of their deaths, including Hong Chong and the ruler of Purple Orchid Kingdom, Norton, caused any waves in the Purple Orchid Star Region, let alone the Hidden Dragon Star Region.

Or rather, all those who knew about it had been quietly silenced, and no one knew that these people were dead!

The entire Purple Orchid Star Region, including the wasteland Star Region, was quiet on the surface.

However, behind the scenes, quite a number of external forces had quietly infiltrated this place.

After waiting a few days and seeing no one come knocking, Du Gang went to Chu Zixuan again for his opinion.

“Tell me, what are these people thinking, why don’t they come directly to me?”

This was one of his puzzled points. They knew how valuable he was, so why didn’t they come? What were they waiting for?

Chu Zixuan gave a faint smile and said, “This, you see, goes all the way back to human nature…

“Regardless of where people come from, they can’t escape being a part of the human species, and inevitably share similarities…”

“Just like I explained to you before, none of them want to expose your secret right now…”

“Even though they’re all aware of each other’s existence, they pretend not to out of a mutual understanding…”

“Because, it’s not the right time yet to tear off the final veil…”

“Therefore, in my estimation, they should not make a move in any populated star area, at least not in bustling star systems like the Wasteland Star Region or the Purple Orchid Star Region-!”

“If they want to make a move, they’ll definitely wait until you’re alone or in an isolated place…”

Du Gang knitted his brows, “So if I stayed on Earth, would they not take action?”

Chu Zixuan shook his head, “Indeed, there’s a threshold for everything. As time goes by, they will certainly lose their patience and initiate action…”

“However, according to psychological predictions, they should be able to resist trying to confront you for at least one month…”

Du Gang fell silent for a couple of seconds, then said, “I get it. In half a month,

I will leave Earth and lead all those chaps away…”

Upon hearing these words, Chu Zixuan felt somewhat distressed. He attempted to comfort Du Gang several times, but struggled to find the right words.

After all, what Du Gang could potentially be confronting was not just one or two planets, but a group.

Furthermore, he might even encounter a formidable opponent of Stellar Level!

Du Gang laughed, saying, “Don’t try to comfort me. It’s no big deal, half a year is enough for me to reach greater heights!”

This was not false talk. The Time Rune had only been used for two days the previous time, and it could still be used again, giving him enough time to increase his strength by a significant margin.

Afterward, Earth continued to operate as it had, with its shielding device operating all day, not receiving any foreign visitors…

At the same time, numerous surveillance devices had been deployed throughout the solar system to prevent the entry of alien spaceships. As for Du Gang, he returned to his room and began discussing with Balala.

“How long can the Time Rune still be used?”

“The Time Rune will get smaller the more it is used until it completely disappears…”

“Your Time Rune can be used for a maximum of one month. However, since you consumed two days of it already, you have twenty-eight days left!”

“That’s enough!”

Du Gang nodded and said, “This time, I plan to train with the Time Rune for half a month. When the time is up, remember to remind me!”

“Half a month?”

Balala exclaimed in surprise: “Half a month will become fifteen thousand days, which is forty-one years. Du Gang, are you sure you want to train for that long?”

This time, it was Du Gang’s turn to be puzzled. “Isn’t the universe’s cultivation regime usually counted in years or even tens of thousands of years? Is it strange for me to cultivate for forty-one years?”

Balala shook his head, saying, “No, it’s not that. It wouldn’t be strange for people with a high realm level or older age to cultivate for such a long time. I only find it unusual because people your age often cannot withstand loneliness…

This was indeed true. The older the age of people, the more they are inclined to cultivate for extended periods of time in seclusion. Conversely, youngsters often can’t wait to venture out into the world.

Du Gang laughed and said, “It’s not a big deal. It’s mainly because of those guys out there pressuring me!”

“If I don’t do this, I might die in a month…”

“Alright then, you go on, I’ll remind you when half a month has passed!”

Just when Du Gang was about to step in, he suddenly stopped and asked again,

“By the way, are the resources my father left for me enough for me to advance to the Stellar Level?”

He figured if he could promote to Stellar Level, he might as well do so directly.

Balala shook his head, “The resources your old master left are trivial, if the resources required to advance to Stellar Level are counted as ten thousand, then with the resources you have now, that would be one!”

Upon hearing this, Du Gang suddenly felt that his future journey was still long.

After thinking for a while, he took a pile of things from his storage space. Placing them aside, he said, “Give these things to Chu Zixuan!”

The things he took out were all things that he could eat merely as sweets, and their efficacy was not significant.

However, for Chu Zixuan, they could potentially help him break through to Satellite Level, or maybe even Planet Level!

After Balala had confirmed that none of the resources would be useful to Du

Gang, he nodded, “Alright, don’t worry, I’ll give them to him!”

At this moment, Du Gang took out a fruit from the pile, “Give this to him as well…

Seeing it, Balala immediately frowned and said, “Du Gang, this is the Heavenly Dragon Fruit. It can enhance aptitude and even you can absorb the energy within it…”

Du Gang laughed and said, “Do I need to enhance my aptitude?”

The aptitude of Ancient God had long reached its peak. These things, which were extremely precious to ordinary people, to him, were really just to be absorbed as energy or eaten as dessert after meals. “Alright, just do as I told you, give these things to him. I’m going to cultivate!”

After saying this, Du Gang quickly entered his Life Space..
