810 The Origin of Everything (Finale) (6/9)

Xu Jingming hadn’t interacted much with Tejano in those days, and the distance between them in terms of status was too vast. Nevertheless, deep down, he felt an immense gratitude towards Tejano.

Following the resolution of that crisis, Xu Jingming’s grandfather, parents, Li Miaomiao, daughter Xu Lixing, and others swiftly approached the end of their lives, passing away one after another. They were all ordinary cosmic beings with a lifespan of merely 3,000 years.

Those 3,000 years marked the weakest period in Xu Jingming’s life. His grandfather had toiled relentlessly, paving the way for him and helping him overcome numerous challenges. Li Miaomiao had devised strategies to establish Xu Jingming’s reputation, enabling him to successfully join a professional team. It was a collective effort by their family to reach this stage.

Without his grandfather’s assistance, Xu Jingming would likely have been annihilated by the Black Moon civilization at Level 7.

Helpless, Xu Jingming witnessed his family succumbing to old age and passing away.

Prolonging their lifespans? Becoming an Origin lifeform through external forces? Unfortunately, as a Level 8 cosmic lifeform at that time, he was unable to accomplish such feats.

By the time Xu Jingming discovered the mysterious world, he was already in his 3,600s. Without hesitation, he decided to participate.

Although he was considered old among the participants, he had accumulated vast knowledge. He successfully reached the seventh planet in the mysterious world and gained profound insights into the Primordial Star phenomenon. Despite his age, the Primordial Research Institute recruited him!

However, according to the rules, he still had to conceal his true identity.

While he remained on Tejano’s team, Xu Jingming’s strength grew rapidly, and they achieved increasingly remarkable results with the team he led. This delighted Tejano, forging a closer bond between them.

Considering that Tejano had not nurtured his team for long and Xu Jingming’s individual prowess surpassed that of his teammates, they were generally inferior, causing them to secure a second-place finish in the most prestigious inter-dominion tournament. Nevertheless, Tejano was immensely satisfied. He was like a giddy fool at the time.

After that battle, Xu Jingming experienced a breakthrough and became an Origin lifeform.

That year, he reached the age of 5,537. From that point onward, the destiny of Earth’s civilization underwent a complete transformation.

Despite becoming an Origin lifeform, Xu Jingming received no acknowledgment from the dean. In fact, the dean didn’t even notice him. After all, Xu Jingming had only become an Origin lifeform in his 5,000s and was considered an ordinary member.

It was only upon becoming an Origin lifeform that he truly ascended to the upper echelons of the Cosmic Human Alliance. Nevertheless, Xu Jingming chose to remain humble and unassuming.

It was only when Xu Jingming, in his 6,000s, reached the pinnacle of a Level 10 Origin lifeform that he managed to astonish everyone. It was only then, as Xu Jingming officially became an overlord of the Oohook Star Alliance, that Earth’s civilization began its rapid expansion.

Xu Jingming’s existence in the independent spacetime was truly monstrous, making everyone eager to establish a good relationship with him. But in reality, despite becoming a Level 10 Origin lifeform, Xu Jingming was merely an ordinary member among the multitude of Level 10 Origin lifeform in the human race. He still had to fight for resources.

The various factions and groups engaged in open and covert battles, backstabbing one another. The conflicts between factions were harsh and unforgiving.

Only a select few individuals managed to rise above the fray and avoid entanglement in the factional competition. Unfortunately, Xu Jingming couldn’t escape this reality.

In his 8,000s, Xu Jingming became a cosmic legend, astonishing all factions.

As a peripheral member of the Primordial Research Institute, who joined through the mysterious world in his 3,600s, he swiftly ascended to greatness after gaining access to the institute’s resources. Surpassing all expectations, he became a cosmic legend in his 8,000s, even outpacing Redmond.

When he reached the milestone of 10,000 years old, Xu Jingming broke through and became a high-dimensional lifeform! The entire human race was left in awe, as he achieved this feat quicker than Redmond. In the true timeline, without the aid of the cosmic fruits in the auxiliary universe, Redmond lagged behind by 20,000 years, making Xu Jingming’s progress far superior.

Upon becoming a high-dimensional lifeform, Xu Jingming personally resurrected his family. Following the revival of his daughter, Xu Lixing, she fortuitously encountered the reclusive Origin lifeform, Meng Tian. Their bond grew stronger over time, leading to marriage and the birth of their two children—Xu Fangjin and Xu Biyun.

…

For me, transitioning from a low-dimensional lifeform to a high-dimensional one was not arduous. Xu Jingming plucked a snow-covered plum blossom. He had always admired the beauty of plum blossoms in the snow. However, the days following my elevation to a high-dimensional lifeform proved to be truly challenging.

Initially, the journey as a high-dimensional lifeform was peaceful and smooth. Xu Jingming’s immense talent propelled him to swiftly reach the Eternal realm. Combining both opportunity and aptitude, he mastered the art of cultivating his Heart Fire Body. This specialized technique belonged to the esteemed lineage of the Primordial Star—the Heart Fire school.

He transformed his body into a manifestation of Heart Fire, allowing him to penetrate the depths of the Primordial Star.

The Primordial Star illuminated the boundless expanse of space, spanning across multiple dominions. By delving into the profound depths of the Primordial Star, one could traverse into other realms.

In terms of speed, it was comparable to navigating through the Abyss or employing teleportation via the Heart Realm. Yet, journeying through the Primordial Star was an immense challenge; its destructive forces were formidable. However, Xu Jingming could endure it in his Heart Fire form.

Over a million years passed in serene tranquility.

However, fate took a dire turn when the dean, Tower Master, and Island Lord faced grave peril during a joint exploration of a perilous zone. For reasons unbeknownst, all three lost their lives. While it was not uncommon for high-dimensional lifeforms to perish during explorations, the deaths of the dean and his comrades—who had long stood united—delivered a severe blow to humanity.

Xu Jingming and Redmond remained the sole surviving high-dimensional lifeforms among the humans.

With Xu Jingming, an Eternal, painstakingly safeguarding the human race alongside Redmond, a powerhouse of the Firstborn realm, every move was executed with utmost caution.

Yet, it didn’t take long for the human race’s ancient neighbor—the formidable Void Celestial, Gumo—to provoke a powerful adversary, resulting in the annihilation of his clones. The Void Celestials met their demise, leaving Xu Jingming and Redmond in stunned disbelief.

An overwhelming sense of fear gripped them. The unpredictable nature of their circumstances became ever more apparent. While the feeble human race remained, the Void Celestials were the first to fall.
