Chapter 359 - Gathering of Eight (2)

n
nDemon Vanquishing World? Xu Jingming checked the information.
n
n…
n
nAfter cultivating for five days, Xu Jingming finally walked out of the cultivation chamber and allowed communications.
n
nImmediately, messages came streaming in.
n
nWhy are so many people contacting me? Xu Jingming checked his contact list. There were messages from his master—Dai Tongda—and his junior sister Dai Xiaoqing, as well as from Wang Yi, Yang Qingshuo, Liu Chongyuan, Heng Fang, and other friends.
n
nSister Xiaoqing is holding a wedding in the virtual world on May 1? She’s inviting me? Xu Jingming smiled. My junior sister is finally getting married?
n
nXu Jingming read the messages.
n
nEver since I entered Planet Number Seven and did my best to comprehend the opportunities on Planet Number Seven, I’ve switched off all communications. Only a few people have the privilege to contact me. In the blink of an eye, months have passed. No wonder there are so many messages. Xu Jingming kept reading.
n
nFor example, although his master, Liu Hai, had the right to contact him, his master knew that Xu Jingming was heading to the mysterious land. He didn’t disturb Xu Jingming unless something important happened before the 330-day deadline.
n
nHuh? Xu Jingming scanned through the large number of messages and finally discovered seven messages—they were all from peripheral members of the Primordial Research Institute.
n
nThe other seven peripheral members on the island have all left messages for me? Xu Jingming read the content and took the initiative to contact one of them.
n
nBuzz!
n
nSoon, an illusory figure appeared in front of him—it was the Third Prince. However, his appearance was different from reality. He was clearly more muscular in the virtual world and had a rougher face.
n
n“Brother Wu Ming, I’m Gu Shan,” the stocky third prince said with a smile. “I’ve been trying to contact you for three days, and I’ve finally met you in person today.”
n
n“I’ve been cultivating. Sorry about that,” Xu Jingming said politely.
n
n“Everyone will cultivate diligently after receiving the legacy,” Gu Shan said with a smile. “There are eight peripheral members of the Hunter Cosmic Sector who cultivate the Primordial Star Conjecture. Including you, there are now eight of us. A get-together is in order for the eight of us. When are you free?”
n
n“Anytime,” Xu Jingming said with a smile.
n
nHe was still very free now.
n
nAfter the mysterious land came to an end, he had gone through the initial cultivation of the legacy. He needed to plan for his future.
n
nOf course, he had to make a trip to Blood Rain World. His master—Liu Hai—and the others were rooted in Blood Rain World, so he had to wrap things up before he left permanently.
n
n“Then, let’s gather in Primordial City today,” Gu Shan said. He suddenly asked, “You haven’t received the Primordial Battle Armor, right?”
n
n“Not yet,” Xu Jingming admitted.
n
n“Don’t communicate with others for the time being,” Gu Shan advised with a smile.
n
n“Is there danger?” Xu Jingming was puzzled.
n
nSo what if he communicated? He had never exposed his true identity.
n
n“It’s not dangerous,” Gu Shan explained. “Primordial City serves all the peripheral members of the Primordial Research Institute. Everyone comes from different cosmic sectors! By using the Primordial Battle Armor, one’s consciousness can enter the virtual world and communicate with any cosmic sector without any lag. But you…”
n
n“I get it. There’s an exaggerated lag in my communication with people from other cosmic sectors.” Xu Jingming smiled.
n
nFor example, it might take a long time for him to see the other party’s mouth move and speak. It took a long time for the other party to see and hear him.
n
n“I can enter the virtual world with the Primordial Battle Armor?” Xu Jingming was surprised. There was such a function.
n
n“Anywhere, anytime,” Gu Shan said with a smile. “Then, let’s meet in Primordial City. I’ll send you the details of the meeting place.”
n
n…
n
nOnly those on a permitted list could enter the Primordial City virtual world.
n
nXu Jingming naturally had the right to enter.
n
nWhoosh.
n
nHe appeared in the sky and looked down at a city.
n
nPrimordial City was a floating city that was bustling with activity. Endless mist emanated outside the city.
n
nWhoosh.
n
nXu Jingming landed on the street and looked at the buildings with different styles.
n
nThere were also some service staff. When the service staff saw Xu Jingming, they walked over to chat with him…
n
nHowever, Xu Jingming kept walking forward. This was because when these service staff members spoke, they saw that Xu Jingming was a projection that had a delayed lag.
n
nXu Jingming was already several kilometers away, so they naturally couldn’t hear him.
n
nThe lag is terrible. Communication with anyone not in the same cosmic sector is too troublesome. Xu Jingming quickly found the agreed location of the gathering—the top floor of an oval building.
n
nThe entire top floor was reserved.
n
nFive people had already arrived and were chatting.
n
n“I screwed up big time.” A child lay on the sofa and said helplessly, “How could I have thought that a little girl would be a terrifying demon? When I refined the demon, I was caught off-guard and failed, injuring my mind and consciousness. I’m not allowed to enter the Demon Vanquishing World for at least five years.”
n
n“Redeye, you’ve been in the Demon Vanquishing World for 600 years, right? You’ve changed accounts more than ten times, right? Even with your experience, you still suffered so much?” Gu Shan teased with a smile.
n
nThe child wore an exasperated look. “Just keep rubbing it in.”
n
n“We have to be careful in the Demon Vanquishing World. We have to act within our means,” a beautiful silver-haired woman said with a smile. “If the information is wrong and we fail to subdue the demons, we will end up injuring our minds and consciousness. It will be a loss.”
n
n“There are pros and cons. Refining demons is also a form of mental tempering. How can we be negligent? Senior Brother Redeye, you were careless,” a black-robed woman remarked coldly.
