Chapter 298: Division at the Very Start
Translator: Mercurial_ Editor: DarkGem
It has to be said that the amount of data stored in the system at this time was just too large. Even Hai Yue and Zhan Wuya, these people from transcending powers, didn't recognize the small golden pill used by Fan Kong, but the system surprisingly had some information about it.
This difference was naturally because of the large amount of data gathered by the system. It wouldn't be the slightest exaggeration to say that it was currently like a super large scale database.
Any information that found its way on the online network, regardless of whether it was public or encrypted, would be stored by the system. If one line was used to describe this, then the system with its large amount of data was equivalent to a super large scale library or maybe was even something greater.
Thus, the Golden Body Arhat Pill used by Fan Kong was recognized by the system at one glance.
Sure enough, after swallowing the Golden Body Arhat Pill, Fan Kong's presence completely transformed. His body lost the air of calmness from before and instead began to emit an extremely valiant presence.
After this transformation, he could surprisingly stand firm under the effect of this origin world's strong gravity and, from the looks of it, he could endure it better than Ruyan Lanzhi who was using the seventh dimensional weight reduction talisman.
Fan Kong certainly wasn't just a simple rogue fluxer. Once he displayed his trump cards, many descenders instantly became more cautious of him.
From the analysis of the system, Li Yunmu knew that the origin world's gravity was sixty-six times that of their world. This number was identical to the number of parallel Earth planes, as for whether that was just a coincidence or not, that was unknown.
However, with Li Yunmu's Tyrant Body having reached the minor threshold coupled with the Devil Dragon Bone Refining, although he wasn't very comfortable, he was definitely the one who felt the most relaxed in this situation.
There was no need to speak of barely resisting the gravity when he even had surplus energy to burst forth into a sprint. Naturally, this sort of power was substantially weakened under the sixty-six times greater gravity of this origin world.
Zhao Mei and Fan Kong had both revealed their trump cards, but the other two rogue fluxers didn't have any such cards up their sleeves. They were completely clear about their abilities and rushed into the shield of Hai Yue's Underworld Ocean Sage Pearl.
But the person who shocked everyone was Demon. No one had expected that he would be able to resist this gravity, have some methods to deal with it. This was his first time revealing his true strength to others.
When Demon was on the verge of collapsing under the gravity, he loudly yelled out with his head bowed down, and the next instant, the clothes on his upper body were destroyed and a halo of sinister black air began to be emitted from his entire body.
Demon thus for the first time revealed his ghost king bloodline.
That's right, after he switched to become a member of the Ghost Clan, he could display the true from of Ghost King Body Refining Secrets. At that moment, his height instantly increased to two meters from his original one hundred and eighty centimeters.
The pupils of his eyes turned into two dim lamplights, and his the shadows under his eyes instantly became deep black, while among his teeth, a pair of ghost king tooth sprouted out.
Once ghost king mode was activated, Demon was immediately able to resist the gravity of the origin world.
"Ghost Clan's Ghost King bloodline."
Zhan Wuya recognized Demon's transformation, and his gaze immediately flickered to Li Yunmu. Evidently, the strength displayed by Li Yunmu's followers had always surpassed his conjectures.
As for Li Qinghong, this woman had extremely firm and indomitable resolve, like a female battle god, so she simply didn't use any methods to face the gravity.
Even if her body was unable to endure the sixty-six times higher gravity and began to bleed from the seven apertures, after which the veins and arteries in her body began to rupture, followed by successive echoes of numerous bones breaking in her body, she still didn't utter half a world.
Suddenly, a flame took form in her stomach, and the projection of the Sungod bird appeared around her. Everyone saw that her body which had been on the verge of collapsing under the heavy pressure began to recover quickly after it was enveloped within this flame.
After this, Li Qinghong's body continuously crumbled and constantly recovered. She clenched her teeth tightly and endured everything without saying anything.
But everyone quickly discovered that while experiencing the endless loop of destruction and rebirth, she began to adapt quickly to the origin world's gravity.
Sungod bird's undying sage blood! When the group recognized it, jealousy appeared in the eyes of people like Ji Wuxin or Man Tian. They knew that Sungod bird's blood wasn't any ordinary sage beast's blood. This property of not letting the user die was clearly a huge trump card.
If everyone didn't know that sungod bird's undying sage blood was extremely particular about being compatible with a person's body constitution, then Li Qinghong would've become everyone's target long ago.
After all descenders had walked out of the forest, the origin world's initial might had caught them completely off guard. Apart from Li Yunmu, Xiye Hanbei, Zhongshan Anling, Zhan Wuya, Ji Wuxin, Lu Bu, Luo Tian, and Men Shen were the only ones to resist the gravity just by the strength of their flesh.
In terms of factions, the faction of the disciples of four Barbarian Kings which included Man Tian, Coiling Tiger, Tyrant Jiang, and Mammoth Barbarian Wuhang was the one that was doing best. This was because barbarians placed great importance on tempering their bodies and would also merge with formidable bloodlines.
Xie Qianxue then allowed people to experience the formidable might of the three sun heavenly world. Even if she could only display ten percent of the heavenly world's power, she was still quite comfortable while using the world power to counter the gravity.
"What should we do now?"
By then, thirteen descenders had entered the area shield of Hai Yue, which was giving her a headache.
Although the Underworld Ocean Sage Pearl which had been refined using the inner dan of a quasi deity level sage beast was extremely formidable, it was shielding more than ten people at the same time so the rate of power consumption was also extremely high. It was clear that this pearl's shield wouldn't last for long at this rate.
"Let's return to the jungle. It'd be wrong of us to pull you back, so you all go ahead without us." Finally, one of those under the shield took the initiative to make this request after realizing this bitter but completely obvious fact.
Others who were also receiving Hai Yue's protection also subsequently expressed their agreement.
Hai Yue didn't need to say anything; these people who had received the shelter had already accepted this fact. Even if Hai Yue was willing to shield them, they still wouldn't be willing to put their lives in the hands of another.
Returning to the jungle also didn't mean that they wouldn't have any chance in the future. The origin world's terrifying gravity was both a disaster as well as an opportunity for them. Although they hadn't cultivated their flesh, it didn't mean they were weak.
If they used the assistance of the origin world to temper their flesh, their strength would advance by leaps and bounds.
Hai Yue's eyes narrowed and she finally said, "We can only do it this way."
The thirty-one descenders who had barely entered the origin world were taught a ruthless lesson by this event. Who could've thought that their group which comprised of Earth's most talented people would unexpectedly be pressured into holing up within the forest before they even had the chance to explore their surroundings.
The group of thirty-one then divided into two. After both groups settled on how to contact each other, the group of descenders who could endure the gravity departed the dragon corpse jungle with heavy hearts.
The fact worth mentioning was that among the group of seven from the Central Continent, including Li Qinghong and Demon, everyone had been able to resist the threat caused by the gravity. Thus, Central Continent's faction was now the most powerful one.
"Look, there is a small village in front of us. We can finally encounter the natives of this world."
