Jianghe City.
After a month of struggle, Chen Ge finally hooked up with a girl from a nightclub. When he reached the hotel, he was dumbfounded. A young man was sitting in the hotel room, watching them with interest. Chen Ge instantly went dark, “Why are you here again?!”
“Who is this?” That pretty girl blinked with her big eyes.
“He is…” Chen Ge began to explain.
“You didn’t tell her about our matter? I’m so sad.” Su Hao showed a sad expression, “You promised me, then you find girls just to cover up your identity?”
“Cover up your identity?” That girl was shocked. She covered her mouth in disbelief, “Could it be that you…”
“No, no, no!” Chen Ge quickly waved his hand.
Slap!
That girl gave a slap without warning and then turned around to leave.
“Damn!” Chen Ge wanted to cry but no tears came out. What’s with this situation?
“Hey, little Su Hao, do you know how long it took for me to settle her?” Chen Ge sounded somewhat mad, “And also, what’s with the words you said just now? How am I going to meet people here in the future?”
“You don’t have time to meet people anyway.” Su Hao looked at him with a mysterious smile.
“En?” Chen Ge’s eyelids twitched.
“I have met the requirement you set.” Su Hao calmly said.
“Impossible!” Chen Ge’s eyes opened wide, “Ten boundary spirits, you have completed them?”
This isn’t a joke, how long was it since then? Not to mention that he was well aware of the fact that Su Hao’s Rule Force was only sufficient for one boundary spirit. Even if there was sufficient Rule Force, to condense boundary spirit requires a huge amount of time! Although if one resorts to condensing the same boundary spirit, saving the time on comprehension, it still wasn’t that long since that day, right?
Making ten boundary spirits would indicate that Su Hao made nine boundary spirits in such a short amount of time!
Even if one beats him to death, Chen Ge wouldn’t believe it!
“Could it be that you created nine first stage boundary spirits?” Chen Ge frowned a bit.
“First stage?” Su Hao laughed.
Swish!
Dozens of silver needles appeared.
Cold light suddenly appeared, turning the entire hotel room into icy coldness. Chen Ge could hardly sit still just from this sight alone!
“Damn!”
“They are all perfect boundary spirits. Let me have a look!”
“One… two… three… thirty!”
Chen Ge was thoroughly stunned.
From his expectation, Su Hao would need at least a year to complete nine perfect boundary spirits. However, how long did it take for Su Hao to come back to him? Not only did he return, he even came with thirty perfect boundary spirits. They are all the exact same copy of Shadowless God Needle!
Thirty of them?
Even the previous him couldn’t achieve such a feat!
Because this wasn’t a problem with Rule Force but time! To condense a boundary spirit requires as little as a month up to years. Even if one does nothing but to spend all of one’s time to condense boundary spirits, it is impossible to create so many boundary spirits in such a short amount of time.
Against Chen Ge’s doubts, Su Hao could only shrug his shoulders.
“Don’t be jealous. Just admit that in this world, there will always be a genius like me.”
Jealous your head!
Chen Ge wanted to run in tears. Since when is this a matter of being jealous?
Genius?
This daddy was also a prideful genius in the Federation. This is on a totally different scale. You know that right?!
After staring at Su Hao for a long time, Chen Ge finally gave out a sigh, “Okay, I will just consider you a genius. Since you have completed ten boundary spirits, although it’s a fake ten boundary spirits, you are probably going to search for the third card, right?”
“You know where it is?” Su Hao’s eyes brightened.
“Of course.” Chen Ge narrowed his eyes, “It’s just that the place you will be going to, are you prepared to die for it?”
Inexplicably, Su Hao’s heart skipped a beat. Prepared to die…
“What do you mean?” Su Hao calmed himself.
“In this era of ability, chaos is everywhere. After that turmoil in the past, a few magical places were born due to the energy chaos. They hide countless secrets and have become legendary places. Countless people went to find the lost power. In the end, they were all met with death.”
Chen Ge slowly explained, “These places eventually became the so-called great despairs.”
Su Hao’s face looked solemn.
“These Great Despairs, only world espers have the qualification to enter. As for domain espers, if there is no world esper to accompany, only death awaits them! Nine Great Despairs, none of them are exceptions!”
“Nine Great Despairs.”
Su Hao was stunned. In this origin ability era, there were actually still such places?
“Oh, but then again, you must have come across them at least once.” Chen Ge seemed to be thinking of something. A smile then formed with the corner of his mouth.
“I came across them before?”
“Of course.” Chen Ge laughed, “One of the Nine Great Despairs, the Despair Abyss. Its entrance is none other than Tiankeng. Your guts at that time were so big. If you dare to destroy it even more, the entire place would explode. When that happens, bang, everyone around it would be gone.”
When Chen Ge made an exaggerated explosion sound, Su Hao was left with some cold sweat on his forehead.
Damn it!
Su Hao wiped off his sweat.
No wonder the Tian family didn’t intervene no matter what he did but just quietly watched from outside. They were all just waiting for Su Hao to court death! Luckily, Su Hao’s energy at that time wasn’t that powerful, or else, as Chen Ge said, that would be one hell of a scene.
“Hold on…” Su Hao suddenly remembered Chen Ge said there is more than one. So it wasn’t this Despair Abyss alone? Could it be that he had visited another one?
“There is one more.” Chen Ge looked at Su Hao with interest.
“Where?”
“Huangliang Secret Territory!”
“What?” Su Hao’s pupil shrunk. Huangliang Secret Territory… the place where that giant wolf is? That place, it is actually one of Nine Great Despairs?
“Isn’t Huangliang City just a city?” Su Hao asked calmly.
“City?” Chen Ge smirked, “A city that cannibalizes people, Huangliang Secret Territory of Nine Great Despairs, it is the only city built on human existence. No one knows why. However, over the years, dozens of attempts had been made to enter Huangliang Secret Territory, but all those world espers were dead.”
“Dead with nobody left behind.”
“Up till now, no one has managed to find where Huangliang Secret Territory is hiding within Huangliang City.”
Chen Ge’s eyes flashed with cold light, “To be hidden within such prosperity, that place is even more terrifying.”
“Huangliang Secret Territory…”
Su Hao was instead very calm.
Chen Ge was clueless of it, but Su Hao definitely had seen the giant wolf. Although it was strong, it will never hurt someone for no reason. Countless world espers died? It seems that this Huangliang City is a place with many hidden secrets. Where are they hiding? What a joke, the entire city itself is the secret!
Chen Ge felt strange seeing Su Hao’s calm expression.
Despair Abyss already scared him enough to give him cold sweats, but why did this Huangliang Secret Territory, which is obviously a more dangerous place, not catch Su Hao’s attention?
“I thought you wanted me to be prepared mentally.” Su Hao shrugged it off.
Chen Ge, “…”
“There is no permanent secret in this origin ability era. No matter what place it is, under the ability talents of espers, there is no way to hide. Nine Great Despairs, the ones who dare to explore such places basically are all dead now.”
Chen Ge explained slowly.
After he finished listening, Su Hao’s heart already had some preparation, “If I didn’t guess incorrectly, the third card should be within one of those places of despair.”
“You’re right.” Chen Ge gave him a glance of admiration, “One of Nine Great Despairs, Taihu Territory. If my deduction is right, the third card should be located there.”
“What should I do then?” Su Hao sounded calm.
“Taihu Territory is one of Nine Great Despairs that got explored the fastest. Under the cooperation of many world espers, we finally discovered the secret of Taihu Territory. Although the progress was only half, if one is careful enough, whether it’s a peak domain esper or a world esper, you can find your own opportunity.” Chen Ge began to explain.
“Peak domain esper?” Su Hao frowned slightly. Why are peak domain espers interested in this place? Could it be…. Su Hao suddenly thought of a possibility, “That place can help peak domain espers breakthrough into the world realm?”
“You’re right!” Chen Ge continued, “These past two years, quite a number of world espers broke through at that place. Although there is still quite a gap from those who self-comprehend their own Rule Force, for those domain espers to be able to overcome that threshold, who would be bothered with whether they would end up as a strong world esper or not?”
As of this point, Su Hao agreed.
After all, a world esper is very strong.
Because of this, even the weakest world esper isn’t something that an ordinary domain esper can content against. Thus, no matter how weak it is, if there is an opportunity, one will never let it slip away.
As for the future…
Who would consider that?
World espers are already the forefront of the world! As long as one doesn’t court death, you should be fine to spend the rest of your life happily.
“This time, we’re going to Taihu Territory.” Chen Ge sneered, “And this time, it will be different from the past. This time, several world espers will be joining forces to explore the secrets within the other half of Taihu Territory. As for us, it’s the best chance because the mysterious card is located at the deepest part of Taihu Territory.”
“At first, I thought that you would only be strong enough next year. By then, Taihu Territory would have already been explored thoroughly, but now…”
Chen Ge smiled, “It seems that we have to tag along for the fun.”
Hearing this, Su Hao had a shiver.
A term popped out of his mind unconsciously, opening up land.
He used to do this when playing games. Of course, the result usually ended up in the group’s destruction, but this time, once he fails…
The entire squad would likely be annihilated! be annihilated!
Even though he’s now a world esper, in Taihu Territory, he dare not say that he would be safe and sound.
“Thus, have you made the preparation?” Chen Ge looked at Su Hao, and his eyes were no longer frivolous.
“Taihu Territory, huh?” Su Hao muttered to himself.
Chen Ge explained it clearly. This is a place that even a world esper may fall. With his half-ass standard and his team members, who will be like tigers watching their prey, one can say that this trip would be extremely dangerous. However, this thick sense of worry actually made his blood boil.
The third card, he was determined to get it!
“Of course I’m going. Why wouldn’t I?” Su Hao stood up with determination.
Chen Ge smiled unconsciously. Now this is Brother Su’s son! Since Su Hao wanted to go, he would give up his life with this young man here. As for those teammates…
It had been quite some time since we met.
Chen Ge’s eyes were full of killing intent.
