I’m A Wasteland Giant

Chapter 361: Chapter 360: Entering the Source Land!

Moon Spirit, leading Du Gang and the others, headed south. After rushing for half a day, they finally found the Western Palace, which was under the jurisdiction of the Western Emperor.

“Moon Spirit, you’re being unfair!”

Just as they arrived, an angry voice erupted from within.

The next second, the entire Western Palace began to move rapidly, fleeing towards the further south Sea of Death.

“Heh heh!”

Du Gang chuckled and signaled to Kou Yingwu.

Kou Yingwu nodded and readily gave chase.

In just two teleports, he appeared in front of the Western Palace.

“Stop!”

With his light shout, a palm struck out, flying towards the Western Palace.

The palm, after leaving his body, quickly grew larger and in a blink of an eye swelled to the size of the Western Palace itself.

“Boom!”

Just as the Western Palace had started to speed away, like a car hitting a wall, it was abruptly halted.

“Fifty million combat power…”

The moment Kou Yingwu made his move, Moon Spirit mumbled to herself.

Hearing these words, Du Gang became interested and asked, “What do you mean by this combat power?”

“What is your combat power now?”

Moon Spirit replied with a significant glance at Du Gang.

Du Gang laughed, “Come on, I’ll allow you to attack with full force just once!”

Moon Spirit narrowed her eyes, a merciless intention welling up in her heart.

“Boom!”

A sudden burst sounded around her, followed by a series of crackling noises.

She was harnessing the power of her golden body, and not just that, a misty light emanated from Moon Spirit’s body. The bluish glow made her face seem mysterious and noble, like a queen of elves.

“Die!”

Once all preparations were done, Moon Spirit yelled softly and launched her most powerful attack at this stage.

It was a fist imprint that began to expand as soon as it left her body.

At their level, the shape of an attack wasn’t really important, what could truly damage the opponent was the power it contained.

“Twenty million…”

Du Gang nodded slightly, estimating Moon Spirit’s punch to contain a maximum force of twenty million combat power, barely reaching the threshold.

“Thud!”

Maintaining a thoughtful look, he casually swatted the gigantic fist away like a fly precisely as it was about to reach him.

“What!?”

Moon Spirit stared at the scene in shock, her mouth wide open enough to fit an apple.

This was her all-powerful attack, with a force of twenty million. Even a Being Beyond Worlds wouldn’t be able to withstand it so effortlessly…

She hadn’t anticipated Du Gang blocking her attack in such a manner.

This sent a surge of shocking waves through her mind. It proved Du Gang’s strength far surpassed her imagination.

He wasn’t just a typical Being Beyond Worlds but was possibly one close to its peak!

Du Gang did not bother with her thoughts and asked directly, “Are you at the early stage of Being Beyond Worlds?”

Moon Spirit mechanically nodded. Her mind had been severely shocked by then and she was somewhat terrified.

Du Gang nodded and continued, “So, what was that fifty million combat power you talked about earlier?”

Upon hearing this, Moon Spirit finally snapped back to reality. She looked at Du Gang and Kou Yingwu, far away, ruthlessly suppressing the rebellious Western Emperor.

At this moment, she felt tremendously helpless. The original hope she had placed on the Western Emperor and the plan to escape in the chaos were completely shattered.

This group, their power was too overwhelming!

She let out a heavy sigh; her complexion returned to normal but her gaze was filled with respect.

“You Ancient Martial Artists measure power levels by the number of spatial layers they can break; while we of the Original Way use bursting power combined with vitality, spirit, golden body, and the likes to gauge one’s capabilities…”

“Generally, warriors in the Being Beyond Worlds level have combat powers ranging from beyond twenty million to below forty million.”

“However, those at Certain Heaven Level have powers upwards of forty million, all the way up to ninety-nine million nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine!”

Du Gang understood instantly, “So, an Emperor is one whose combat power is above a hundred million?”

Moon Spirit nodded, “That’s right. Ancient Martial Artists don’t have Emperors, their maximum is Certain Heaven Level; it has to do with the path of their cultivation…”

She didn’t dare to belittle Ancient Martial Artists much, after all, the four people before her were formidable Ancient Martial Artists.

“The great warriors of our Original Way, they can ascend to Emperor by breaking through the three-barrier gate, entrusting their Dao to the Origin Land after attaining a Certain Heaven Level…”

She paused here for a moment before eventually revealing what she knew.

“You said you want to kill the Emperor?”

“Emperors get additional combat power in the Origin Land, usually ranging from thirty to fifty percent…”

She emphasized, “Ordinary Emperors have power levels of over a hundred million, and their power is substantial. Even if two Being Beyond Worlds at their peak joined forces, they wouldn’t be able to defeat an Emperor. It’s the difference in power levels…”

“As for the Emperors in Origin Land, the weakest of them is the one who achieved emperor status twenty thousand years ago. After twenty thousand years, even the worst should have managed to increase his combat power a bit, right?”

Du Gang understood her words.

After all, according to their estimation, an Emperor belonged to the pseudo Celestial God level, whereas a Being Beyond Worlds is at the True God peak level.

Indeed, there is a rank difference between the two. They aren’t on the same level. A little difference in combat power stands for a huge disparity.

Only when their powers also exceed a hundred million does the disparity become less overwhelming.

He continued asking, “What do you think my power level is?”

Moon Spirit didn’t hesitate, “Among those less powerful than the Emperors, you’re the strongest I’ve seen. You should have reached the peak of Certain Heaven Level, right?”

Peak Certain Heaven Level implies that one’s combat power has reached its peak and can’t be improved any further. The next step would be Emperor status.

Du Gang nodded, “Then tell me, how many warriors like me would it take to defeat a newly promoted, ordinary Emperor?”

Moon Spirit stalled for a moment and began to contemplate, “In history, it seems like no such battle has occurred…”

“More than thirty thousand years ago when the Original Way just emerged, those who achieved Emperor status did battle with Ancient Martial Artists. There might have been a situation where many of the strongest fought against one Emperor. But I didn’t participate in the war at that time…”

She sighed, about to shake her head, then her eyes lit up, “Oh, right. I once heard my father say…”

“My father is the North Emperor. I once inadvertently heard that the four Extreme Dao Celestial Emperors, whose power levels are equivalent to the Emperors…”

“I haven’t seen Emperors fight against many of the strongest, but War Celestial Emperor has sparred with Ancient Martial Art’s strongest…”

“His power level was nearly able to suppress ten warriors at Certain Heaven level simultaneously. However, it seemed like that was the limit. At that time, he had just achieved Extreme Dao status, which is equivalent to just entering Emperor level…”

Is it that one Emperor is equivalent to ten of the strongest warriors at Certain Heaven Level?

Du Gang looked puzzled, “You’re telling me all this, aren’t you afraid we’ll go up and kill your father?”

Since North Emperor is her father, why is she giving away all these pieces of information so eagerly?!

“Heh heh!”

A frosty look flashed across Moon Spirit’s face as she coldly said, “If you can, I hope you’ll kill the North Emperor!”

“Father, have you ever seen a father who personally turns his own daughter into a life seed?”

Du Gang was stunned, he knew what the term “Life Seeds” referred to, using other people to fill their vacancies and free the emperors from their bindings.

What Moon Spirit meant was that her father, the North Emperor, had refined her into a life seed, and planned to sacrifice her when she attained the status of an emperor, for his own liberation…

No wonder Moon Spirit wished to kill her father.

With a sense of emotion, he finally had a clear understanding of the power of the emperors.

A newly initiated emperor-level powerhouse, is equivalent to ten strongest beings who have surpassed ninth level.

The eight emperors and two Heavenly Emperors of Source Land, even the weakest have been practicing the Original Way for more than 20,000 years. The strongest has even established Ancient Martial Arts and the Original Way, achieving the status of emperors for over 40,000 years.

It’s clear that the emperors in Source Land are extremely formidable, and hard to overcome with just the four of them unless he uses the explosive seeds…

Explode seeds?!

Du Gang contemplated for a while before shaking his head.

Though his strength after the Explosion is indeed terrifying, it can only be used once in a short period. He must save it to deal with the strongest Heavenly Emperor.

So, when planning to kill the emperors, he must rely on external forces.

“Let me go, my father is Western Emperor!”

While he was pondering, Kou Yingwu had already grabbed Xijiji by the neck like a chicken and lifted him over.

Not just him, Tao Xuanzhu naturally brought Lin Zi with her.

As Moon spirit said, Lin Zi was truly with Xiji.

Lin Zi was much more sensible than Xiji as he knew they had low power and did not resist but willingly complied and followed Tao Xuanzhu.

“Don’t struggle, they are all surpassing ninth level!”

Moon Spirit quickly reminded Xiji, fearing that if she angered the four, she would be implicated.

Upon hearing this, Xiji calmed down and discreetly observed the four.

However, the more he looked, the more bewildered he became, because he didn’t recognize any of these four people.

“Are they newly emerged surpassing ninth level?” He mumbled softly.

Du Gang shook his head and didn’t pay attention to him, but instead looked toward Lin Zi.

“Do you have a passage within you?”

Lin Zi was taken aback and shook her head, “No, there’s a channel from Source Land concealed in my Dao…”

Du Gang nodded, “I understand, open your Dao up for us, we need to…”

Before he could finish, he realized that Lin Zi was blushing and instantly realized the ambiguity of his own words.

He turned to look at the others, sure enough, they were all staring at him with peculiar expressions.

Du Gang was at a loss for words, “Stop messing around!”

He looked at Lin Zi again, sternly saying, “We want to enter the Source Land, open your…”

Lin Zi was helpless, she knew what Du Gang meant, but she couldn’t help but imagine things…

Shaking her head, she pushed aside the messy thoughts in her mind, and slowly revealed her Dao as per Du Gang’s instructions.

Hum!

A Dao flooring that was a kilometer long appeared before everyone’s eyes.

It didn’t emerge directly, more like appearing in the form of an illusion.

As the Dao emerged, everyone also saw the so-called channel.

It was a gate, an unknown gate placed here.

“The Gate of Source Land!”

Moon Spirit nodded, “This is a privately built gate, entering from here, the emperors inside won’t know!”

Du Gang smiled faintly, “Good, let’s go in!”

With that, he pointed to Moon Spirit and Xiji.

Both were startled and quickly understood that Du Gang was suspecting that they might be lying. He wanted them to act as testers and enter first.

Moon spirit, being aware of these secrets, knew that crossing this gate was not dangerous, so without any hesitation, she stepped forth intrepidly into the gate.

With Kou Yingwu’s intimidation, Xiji reluctantly followed with a disgruntled face.

The gate was like a portal through space-time. The two disappeared in front of everyone as soon as they went through.

Upon seeing this, Du Gang did not hesitate and hurriedly dove in.

The others followed suit upon seeing this.

In the blink of an eye, only Lin Zi was left outside the Western Emperor’s Palace.

She glanced around, looking at the desolate Sea of Death, the corner of her mouth twitched.

“Is…Is there anyone who cares about me?!”

She was somewhat helpless, since the channel was concealed within her Dao, meaning even if she escaped to the ends of the earth, these people would still emerge from her Dao…

Upon this thought, she ceased to struggle and returned to the Western Emperor’s Palace to wait quietly.

Decay!

Chaos!

Darkness!

This was Du Gang’s first impression as he crossed through ‘the gate’.

He initially thought that Source land would be a fairyland, after all, this was the dwelling place of the Emperors.

But upon coming here, it was far from how he had imagined it. The environment was more akin to hell than anything else.

Moon Spirit and Xiji, who were in front of him, were also curiously looking around.

The two were clever and showed no signs of attempting to escape, quietly waiting where they were.

Soon, Kou Yingwu and the others also entered.

“How could this place be so barren?”

Coming here, the three of them had the same thought.

Moon Spirit then began to explain, ” Source land reflects the practitioners in the entire Original Way.”

“Making a move here attracts a lot of attention, everyone in the three-worlds can see. Before we entered, there was no movement in the three-worlds. Which means your friends… haven’t made a move yet!”

Friends?

Du Gang couldn’t help but give a wry smile, “Those guys are not our friends!”

“We compete…”

He shook his head without any further remarks. Moon Spirit’s face showed disagreement.

In her eyes, she and the other returners were all initial martial artists. The so-called conflict was merely an internal disagreement.

Without wasting breath on explanations, he silently sent out his Divine Thought.

His Divine Thought swiftly reached its survey limit but didn’t find the edge of this layer of Origin Heaven.

Moon spirit explained after noticing his behaviour. “Source land is said to be infinitely large, even larger than the three worlds…”

Seeing the others frowning, she continued, “But finding the emperors is pretty simple. The closer to the center, the more concentrated the energy is. They are guarding the Source Land, so they must be in those central areas…”

“It’s pretty clear, the place where we appeared in Source land is rather remote!”
