Chapter 737 Meeting on a Narrow Path, Victory to the Brave!
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Xu Jingming had a stern look.
Boom!
A terrifying aura erupted from Xu Jingming’s body, and faint lightning flashed around him.
Heart Divine Weapon—Lightning Mental Tempering.
This was the strongest move in Xu Jingming’s arsenal—Heart Divine Weapon. It was also derived from putting his My Dao realm into practice.
He deployed his strongest move right away! It was obvious how determined Xu Jingming was.
Huh? It can actually affect my mind? Havering was slightly surprised. He saw enormous lightning flickering around Xu Jingming and knew very well that these were all illusions from mental influence. However, the effects are negligible. I can still sense and lock onto his location.
Xu Jingming had never held any extravagant hopes of defeating his greatest competitor with just the mind.
Competitors in the later stages of the tournament had extraordinary minds. It was already not bad if there was a slight influence. If one wanted to defeat their opponents, they still had to rely on combat.
Buzz.
Xu Jingming instantly unleashed his speed that was as fast as lightning speed.
Havering remained motionless, watching the other party attack.
Boom.
Xu Jingming rushed over and punched Havering’s head with his fist like a bolt of lightning.
Xu Jingming’s fist wasn’t big, roughly ten centimeters in diameter. It completely spanned Havering’s head, deforming it and making him bleed from his nose and mouth as he was promptly sent flying.
Bang!
Havering crashed into the arena’s barrier, but Xu Jingming had already caught up. He delivered another blow at Havering’s head.
In the blink of an eye, he unleashed over 100 punches in rapid succession.
Havering was pinned to the shield, unable to land on the ground! His head kept deforming from the punches, blood gushing out in streams.
Urgh.
It really hurts. Havering didn’t fight back, letting Xu Jingming pummel him. Though his body and head were battered repeatedly, these injuries meant nothing to him.
“This is your maximum strength?” Even as he was being beaten, Havering looked at Xu Jingming with a faint smirk. Then, he took another ten heavy punches to the face.
He was constantly injured, but he kept healing.
Havering didn’t care about such trifling injuries at all.
…
Countless spectators from the seven human countries watched eagerly as Xu Jingming pounded Havering, who made no move to retaliate. They cheered wildly, as if victory was already in their grasp.
However, the high-dimensional lifeforms in the audience could tell the situation disadvantaged Xu Jingming.
Be it Xiao Lilu, Demon Dragonborn Cloudhunter or the current Human Jing Ming, none can deal Havering a fatal blow. The high-dimensional lifeforms shook their heads. Human Jing Ming will likely lose too.
He can’t seriously threaten Havering, but Havering can threaten him. Xiao Lilu watched the battle unfold, thinking to himself.
Jing Ming. Shadow, Yu Yangwei and the portly Fengke had solemn looks on their faces.
Once one’s strength reached a certain level, they could tell the situation disadvantaged Xu Jingming.
…
“Have you had enough? My turn now.” Havering finally launched a counterattack.
Although he was slower than Xu Jingming, his diminutive physique granted him terrifying agility. With Havering deliberately dodging, most of Xu Jingming’s blows swished through empty air.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Havering took Xu Jingming’s punches head-on and retaliated at close quarters. His tiny hands appeared puny but were lethally sharp.
Rip.
The tip of his palm sliced across Xu Jingming’s chest, carving a bloody furrow.
As expected. I’ve already deployed my mightiest Lightning Mental Tempering yet still can’t fatally threaten Havering. Xu Jingming instantly grasped his dire straits.
Xiao Lilu and Demon Dragonborn Cloudhunter overpowered Ant Havering in speed and strength! Still, both lost.
Now, identical circumstances confronted him!
That one advantage was all he required!
Havering banked on his species’ edge. With a minor gap in ability, direct confrontation would indeed crush his foe.
Whoosh. Whoosh.
The duo battled frenetically.
Havering mended some wounds in the blink of an eye.
As for the gory gashes marring Xu Jingming, his recuperation lagged. Though three to five injuries vanished, more emerged.
Now is the time. A razor-sharp glint flickered in Havering’s eyes. His immense combat experience discerned the optimal chance.
His whole body morphing into a weapon, Havering penetrated Xu Jingming’s left arm.
Rip!
Havering tore through Xu Jingming’s limb, his hand’s sharpest points acting like a piercing awl. An arm wrenched from Xu Jingming’s socket, catapulting into the air.
“Lord Jing Ming!” Countless humans grew jittery. Their greatest champion, Jing Ming, minus an arm?
Shadow, Yu Yangwei, and the portly Fengke grew uneasy.
“Sigh.” Many high-dimensional lifeforms sighed.
Everything was as they had expected—this Human, Jing Ming, was about to be defeated by the Ants.
…
At this moment, in the outside world.
New home universe, Earth.
Xu Jingming didn’t go with his wife. Instead, he stood alone in his study, gazing at the beautiful planet from afar. He had moved Earth to this new universe from his original home.
My homeworld still looks beautiful after all these years. Xu Jingming gazed at his homeworld and saw his wife and daughter traveling the universe from a distance. He also saw his parents immersed in the virtual world.
There’s no way out for me. Either I win or… I die! Xu Jingming’s eyes were eerily calm.
******
The arm flew off, blood splattering.
Havering was ecstatic. It will take at least a minute or two to regrow his arm. For that long… he’d be disabled. He’s sure to lose. I’ll end him while he’s down!
Havering was a veteran of combat and knew to seize the chance to kill his opponent in one blow and win.
Boom!
Havering gawked. He heard a crackle of lightning and saw surging lightning bolts.
“What?!” Havering could barely make out a figure with lightning-like eyes!
Lightning Mental Tempering! My Dao Mental Tempering!
Xu Jingming’s mind was laser-focused as he tapped into every ounce of potential in his body. His body—which seemed to have reached its limits—gushed out new potential, and even greater strength amassed in his fist.
The fist struck Havering’s head again, rattling it. The might of this blow clearly exceeded the last.
Havering found it unbelievable as he hurtled back.
“Havering, today only one of us is walking out of here alive!” Xu Jingming’s voice boomed in the Ant’s mind. His fists crackled with lightning as they pounded the Ant’s head and body with devastating force.
How did he infiltrate my mind? His mental abilities have strengthened… Havering suddenly grasped the situation. He was still confident of winning the next tournament, even if he lost this one. He had an escape route.
Xu Jingming, on the other hand, had no more room for error.
If he lost this tournament, he might have to wait until the super-small species died of old age. Many years later, a large number of powerhouses would rise. Who knew what would happen?
Therefore, Xu Jingming had long thrown caution to the wind! He had to fight for the championship this year!
Either I win or I die!
Xu Jingming’s determination hardened as he tapped into every reserve of strength in his body. His fist might be much smaller than the three-meter Xiao Lilu and the five-meter Demon Dragonborn Cloudhunter, but it was far deadlier and more penetrating!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Each terrifying punch inflicted intense agony across Havering’s body.
Transcend life and death, and embody my Dao! Xu Jingming had long been stuck at the seventh level of the Eight Directions Map—the My Dao realm. The Dao was a path he needed to forge with his life—one step at a time.
Thus, at this juncture between life and death, he chose the Lightning Mental Tempering. Lightning Mental Tempering was the mental forging of his Dao!
“Die! Die, die!!!” Each punch carried an increasingly deranged will and determination as he strove to summon every iota of power in his body.
Why is he growing stronger despite losing an arm? Havering writhed in pain all over. He couldn’t stabilize himself after each blow, his countless bones and tendons shattered.
Ka!
When the sturdiest skull shattered with a crack, Havering jolted in shock. In that moment, he recalled the one-armed Giant Ape King who died in the first tournament.
“I admit defeat!!!” Havering immediately shouted sharply.
The entire venue fell silent.
Xu Jingming also stopped punching.
Havering composed himself. He could ignore his other injuries, but he wouldn’t take any more risks with his sturdiest skull cracking. If his head shattered completely and his brain splattered, he would die. There would be no future.
Despite losing an arm, he managed to crack my skull. Havering looked at Xu Jingming with a complicated expression.
“The tournament is over, the tournament is over!” Panqiu excitedly entered the arena, his voice resonating everywhere. “Ant Havering has surrendered. Human Jing Ming has won the final victory. He is the champion of this tournament!”
“Champion!”
“Wow.”
“Lord Jing Ming.”
“Jing Ming.”
Countless cheers sounded like the world collapsing.
Hearing the cheers, Xu Jingming couldn’t help but smile.
He swept his gaze across the entire arena and saw Shadow, Yu Yangwei, and the portly Fengke. He also saw countless audience members cheering for him.
I won. Xu Jingming felt extremely relaxed.
“Congratulations.” A voice sounded from the side.
Xu Jingming turned his head and lowered his head slightly before seeing Havering.
“I never expected to lose despite relying on my species’ advantage,” Havering looked up at the tall Xu Jingming coldly. “Can you tell me why you became stronger after losing your arm?”
“I never cared about losing the arm. Even if both arms were broken, I’d have bitten you to death with my teeth,” Xu Jingming said.
At the craziest moment, there was only one thought—win!
Havering was stunned for a beat before he grinned. “Got it. You’ve got no more wiggle room; you can only fight with your neck on the line. You’ve got me beat on combat grit and guts.”
“Because you’ve still got an out,” Xu Jingming said.
Havering spun on his heel. “Anyhow, congratulations on making it out of here.”
Whoosh.
Havering transformed into a beam of light and vanished.
Xu Jingming bounded up and soared off toward his waiting room. He too looked forward to leaving the Myriad Species World behind.
