I’m A Wasteland Giant

Chapter 177: Chapter 176: Ancient God’s Enemy!

Translator: 549690339

“The core of the geomantic position in the underground…”

Tang Ren began to ponder.

The energy in the geomantic area could be gradually accumulated over time, but they had already found a balance point to maintain it.

Each powerful figure at the Sector Lord Level had a limited share. If Yan Xiong were to enter, he would have to give up his own share.

After much consideration, he agreed.

“Okay, I’ll allow it, go ahead!”

Yan Xiong nodded and smiled, “As for Du Gang’s identity, it can be said that only I know about it in the Qiankun Continent and the related cosmic countries…”

“Ancient God, a race that can become gigantic. The stronger they are, the taller they can become, which complement each other…”

“As long as they have sufficient energy, they can break through to the Eternal Level without any obstruction…”

“Their affinity towards the Laws, in our words, is at the maximum level. They can comprehend any law if they wish…’

“And Du Gang is an Ancient God!”

“Ancient God…

Tang Ren muttered, quickly asking, “Why doesn’t Du Gang stay in the cosmic center but instead come back from the peripheral cosmic countries?”

Yan Xiong laughed and said, “By coincidence, I happened to meet the previous

Ancient God and specifically asked my teacher for related information…”

“Ancient Gods in the cosmic center have a great foe. For some unknown reason, all the Ancient Gods have disappeared. It may have been tens of millions of years ago or even hundreds of millions of years ago. Overnight, only one Ancient God was left…

“That Ancient God, perhaps to avoid enemies, or for other considerations, left the cosmic center and entered this cosmos…

“You might not know, but the gods in the cosmic center, including other races, are highly resistant to our cosmos. They are not willing to enter…’

“So, Du Gang is a successor of this Ancient God?”

“That’s right!”

Tang Ren sighed with relief, saying, “So, in this cosmos, Du Gang is safe. There won’t be enemies coming to trouble him?”

Yan Xiong shook his head, “I heard there is a Great Power within the Cosmic Colosseum who is at odds with the Ancient Gods. Also, there should be enemies on the Pangu Continent!”

“Pangu Continent?”

Tang Ren was startled, “How can there be enemies of the Ancient God here? I thought they had never come…”

Suddenly, he thought of the shape of the Pangu Continent…

His face was full of shock, and he exclaimed, “Yan Xiong, are you saying that

Pangu Continent is actually…?”

Yan Xiong nodded, “Yes, that Pangu Continent is also home to the Ancient God race!”

“Hiss-a ”

The people at the scene all gasped, looking shocked.

Only Ning Peng was confused, not knowing what they were talking about.

Tang Ren was flabbergasted, “How is that possible? Pangu Continent is a hundred million light-years in length..

Pangu Continent was a human-shaped continent, from head to toe, it was a billion light-years long.

When they were young, they still wondered if the Pangu giant really existed or if the continent’s shape was merely coincidental while they were visiting Pangu Continent.

As it turned out, this ancient question was answered today! “An Ancient God who is a hundred million light-years tall!” Everyone present kept swallowing their breath.

“Could Du Gang potentially grow to such an existence?”

Yan Xiong shook his head and said, “I don’t know. When my teacher learned about the Ancient Gods, there was only the last one left…”

“Pangu Continent was born from the Big Bang over a hundred billion years ago, so no one knows what the exact situation is!”

Tang Ren recalled the previous question and asked, “Who are the enemies of the Ancient God on Pangu Continent that you mentioned earlier?”

Yan Xiong shrugged, “You probably don’t know, but Pangu Continent used to worship the Pangu God. As the Ancient Gods fell into obscurity, coupled with the targeting of the Cosmic Colosseum, the religions on Pangu Continent that worshiped Pangu or the Ancient Gods gradually declined…”

“On Pangu Continent now, most of the surviving general forces have survived until now because they turned to the Cosmic Colosseum and no longer worshiped Pangu…’

“Just imagine, what will they do when they hear that the god they originally

“Especially when they know this god is weak, and has not grown up yet…”

If Du Gang returned with overwhelming strength and directly crushed the opponents from the Cosmic Colosseum, these forces on Pangu Continent would inevitably submit.

But now, Du Gang is only at the Stellar Level, not even the Cosmic Level. If this were known, it would be feared that no one would want to acknowledge him!

Yan Xiong laughed and said, “Of course, the Cosmic Colosseum can’t cover the sky with one hand. There are also other three major companies on Pangu Continent. I heard that it’s just one of the Great Powers in the Cosmic

Colosseum who has some grievances with the Ancient Gods. Therefore, even if Du Gang appears on Pangu Continent, to a large extent, most forces would watch and not dare to easily take the field. After all, Du Gang is an Ancient God, and no one knows what the trump card of a god could be…”

“I see!”

After hanging up the communication, Tang Ren regretted discussing these matters with Yan Xiong in front of so many people.

At the time, he only wanted to know what kind of sacred body Du Gang possessed, who knew that not only were there enemies behind him but it also involved the Cosmic Colosseum.

He thought for a moment and said, “I know that you who are present here belong to the four major companies, and there are also people from the Cosmic Colosseum. But you need to understand, you’re mainly from the Heavenly Pride

Academy…”

“As for the news about Du Gang, I hope you can keep it a secret!”

Suddenly, Tang Ren looked at the vice principal in charge of discipline inspection before and said, “Ji Xiu, I hope you won’t report this to the Cosmic Colosseum…

After hearing this, Ji Xiu was slightly taken aback. Looking at the principal’s serious expression, he nodded after a while.

After that, Tang Ren gave a stern warning, asking everyone not to spread the news about the Ancient God, and only then dismissed them.

They had to be dismissed. If the leaders of the academy disappeared and couldn’t be contacted, that would be a big problem. So, they had to be released.

After releasing Ning Peng and Teacher Huang, now only Old Zhang, Huo, and Tang Ren were left at the entrance of the Secret Realm.

“How long do you think it will take for him to come out?!”

“If it’s a hundred thousand meters, the amount of time he can stay is a hundred thousand seconds. That’s equivalent to 27 hours, so he should be out by tomorrow at the latest…

“I see!”

Tang Ren said nothing more, quietly observing Du Gang who was cultivating immovably inside, his thoughts drifting all over.

Inside the Secret Realm.

After five hours of cultivation, Du Gang finally grasped a piece of Mystery. This means that his Gold Element Laws now have six Mysteries. He only lacks three more to complete them.

As previously planned, Du Gang did not continue to delve into the newly comprehended Mystery but instead began to study a new Mystery.

He planned to comprehend the remaining three Mysteries first, then practice these four uncompleted Mysteries to their fullest extent.

Outside the Secret Realm.

After Ji Xiu and the school leaders returned, they continued with their work, as if they really heeded Tang Ren’s words and did not plan to report it.

However, when the day ended and night fell, Ji Xiu secretly contacted a friend inside the Cosmic Colosseum from a hidden room in his own house to inquire about the matters related to the Ancient God.

Despite being only a Sector Lord Level, he has quite a few friends in the Pangu Continent, and before long, he received a message, “Those who are seeking trouble with the Ancient God are the Jiang Family…”

After thanking his friend, Ji Xiu sank into deep thought.

“Jiang Family…”

The Jiang Family is a major force within the Cosmic Colosseum. While they can’t dominate everything with their power, they do hold a lot of influence.

Upon confirming that reporting would bring more benefits than harm, he contacted an Eternal-Level powerhouse from the Jiang Family.

Soon, an image of a young man with a nose pointed upwards, emitting an air of arrogance, appeared.

“Who are you? Why are you looking for me?”

Ji Xiu hurriedly spoke respectfully,” Sir, I am Ji Xiu, the Vice president of Qiankun Academy. I had the privilege of meeting you in Pangu Continent many years ago!”

The arrogant young man hmmm-ed for a while, then asked, “What do you need me for?”

Soon, Ji Xiu stated the fact that Du Gang was an Ancient God, precisely and in detail.

The image was still, the young man’s face showed no change.

Just when Ji Xiu was feeling anxious, not knowing what the other party was thinking.

“Hahaha! ”

The arrogant youth suddenly burst into laughter.

“Unexpectedly, such good fortune has fallen upon me, Jiang Tianpeng…” His name is Jiang Tianpeng!

Ji Xiu didn’t say a word, and slightly lowered his head, quietly waiting for Jiang Tianpeng’s decision.

In a short while, Jiang Tianpeng reined in his joy and regained his composure. After pondering for three seconds, he said, “You did well, Ji Xiu, right? I’ll remember you…”

“Now, I want you to maintain the normative procedures of your academy, keep this matter confidential and do not spread it around. Furthermore, if that guy needs any resources, provide him with what he needs and let him easily advance in the knockout rounds to the Pangu Continent…”

Ji Xiu was startled, but soon agreed to his proposal.

Outside the Secret Realm, Tang Ren and the others are still watching the image on the disk intently.

“He has already comprehended two new Mysteries…”

“Yeah, it seems he plans to comprehend all the remaining Mysteries, then slowly attain perfection…”

While the three were chatting leisurely, a shadow emerged from the darkness and quickly came to Tang Rents side to whisper a few words in his ear.

Upon hearing, Tang Rents brow furrowed.

“This smarmy old man, he really did report it!”

“What does ‘do not make it public’ mean?”

Tang Ren couldn’t figure it out. He gave the Secret Realm’s entrance to Old Zhang and Huo Lao and quickly made his way to his own residence.

Soon, he entered a secluded room, then entered the virtual universe. Next, he found a special item in his virtual universe home. After using it, his body quickly appeared in a strange courtyard.

After a short wait, a handsome youth suddenly appeared.

“Teacher, why are you here?!”

Tang Ren looked at the young man with compassionate eyes and said, “Luo

Shan, the academy is having a problem and I want to hear your opinion!”

“Luo Shan, tell me, how can we save Du Gang?”

Upon hearing these words, Luo Shan was filled with emotions, seeing the same personality as his teacher.

Back then, when he encountered a formidable enemy, he would not have grown to where he is now without Tang Ren’s protection.

He thought for a while and said, “Teacher, there are five founders in the

Cosmic Colosseum. Ancestor of the Jiang family is one among them…. ” “The Jiang family’s influence inside the Cosmic Colosseum is not small…. ”

Tang Ren immediately frowned upon hearing this, “Are you saying that we can’t intervene in this matter?”

Luo Shan smiled, “Teacher, you misunderstood. I’m not scared. I mean, the Jiang family is not omnipotent, there are four powers within them that can counteract each other. And my Virtual Universe Company is stronger than they are….”

“Of course, the feud between the Ancient God and the Jiang family is personal, so it’s not appropriate for the Virtual Universe Company to intervene….”

“But you can rest assured about one thing, the people of the Jiang family will not leave the center of the universe easily….”

Luo Shan smiled and said, “Moreover, the Jiang family can actually be divided into the main branch and the side branch, with only the side branch of the Jiang family staying in the Pangu Continent. That Jiang Tianpeng there is only an early stage Eternal-Level guy, his power is not strong….”

Tang Ren nodded and asked, “Then what do you think Jiang Tianpeng is planning to do now?”

Luo Shan shrugged his shoulder and laughed, “According to my understanding of people like them, Jiang Tianpeng definitely wouldn’t report this information readily, but wants to secretly capture Du Gang and research on his own….”

“Research it himself?”

Tang Ren was taken aback. “What does he want to research?”

Luo Shan chuckled and said, “Do you know how the feud between the Ancient God and the Jiang family started?”

“How did they become enemies?

Tang Ren didn’t expect Luo Shan to know about the matter and asked back in surprise.

Luo Shan chuckled, “In the ancient times, the Ancient Gods were powerful, and no one dared to mess with them…”

“However, as time passed, the number of Ancient Gods decreased. By the end of the ancient era, most of them suddenly disappeared, no one knew where they went leaving only one Ancient God in our world…”

“Later, rumors spread that The Ancient Gods had been cursed and all had died suddenly…”

“It wouldn’t matter much, but the Ancient Gods were one of the strongest clans in the core of the universe. They had a powerful treasure known as the Ancient God’s hometown, which held the wealth they had accumulated over billions of years…”

“Therefore, many people wanted to take possession of the Ancient God’s hometown…”

“However, the Ancient Gods are Ancient Gods, after all. The only surviving

Ancient God was not simple and managed to defeat all their enemies…”

When Luo Shan reached this point, he paused and chuckled: “Actually, there is an episode to this story!”

“The predecessor of the Jiang family who also participated in the creation of the Cosmic Colosseum, wanted to inherit the Ancient Gods. He intented to find the Ancient Gods’ hometown from their memories…”

“Hmm, that predecessor of the Jiang family was very confident in his abilities. He directly captured the Ancient God and put the god in his inner world, intending to slowly absorb the Ancient God…”

“Later, with the help of some great families, the Ancient God finally let go of the Jiang’s predecessor…”

“However, this humiliation became an eternal conflict for the Jiang family… Originally, given the Ancient God’s strength, there would be no subsequent retaliation…”

“However, not long after, that Ancient God disappeared. Then, a new Ancient God appeared in the universe, one that was an inheritor of the previous Ancient God…”

“Everyone knows that the inheritance of Ancient Gods can only be passed on through inheritance, one dies and one is passed on. Hence, it’s well known that the last Ancient God, with high probability, is dead…”

“Perhaps it was disappointment with the core of the universe, or perhaps some other reason, his successor started wandering throughout the universe…”

“The Du Gang you mentioned should be the latest inheritor of the Ancient God, as to which generation he belongs, I’m not sure…”

Tang Ren finally understood and curiously asked: “I wonder what the name of the Ancient God who chased the Jiang family ancestor into exile is?”

“The Ancient God Du Kang!”

Luo Shan nodded, “The last Ancient God of the universe center was named Du Kang. After him, no subsequent Ancient Gods were as powerful as him, and no one else was able to achieve eternity. I don’t know if there’s a specific reason…”

Tang Ren nodded and said, “So, Jiang Tianpeng wants to catch Du Gang in order to study the Ancient God?”

The inheritance of the Ancient God and the Ancient God’s hometown!

He pondered a bit and felt that most people would not be able to resist such temptation.

Luo Shan nodded and laughed, “That’s probably the case. Although the Jiang’s predecessor never openly mentioned his enmity with the Ancient God, it was due to the mediation of other great families that the Ancient God spared him. Therefore, he has no reason to pursue the Ancient God, otherwise it would be unjust…

“Those who kept pestering the Ancient God afterwards were descendants of the Jiang’s predecessor. Some did so to please their ancestor, others to wipe clean the shame, but in any case, they are all extremely hostile to the Ancient Gods…”

“As far as I know, several generations of the Ancient God inheritors after Du

Kang had died under persecution from the Jiang family…”

“However, for some unknown reason, every time an Ancient God dies, a new inheritor appears, as if they had already arranged the succession in advance!”

Luo Shan chuckled: “Moreover, the good thing is that Jiang Tianpeng can’t enter the Qiankun Continent. Although we are at the eternal level and our strength has improved, we face more restrictions…”

“In the past, when I just became an Eternal, I could still apply to visit the Qiankun Continent, but now I really can’t…”

He didn’t elaborate on why he couldn’t return, instead he said:

“Jiang Tianpeng definitely can’t go to Qiankun Continent. He must be waiting for Du Gang to advance to the Pangu Continent after the Cosmic Peak Talent Competition, then secretly take action himself!”

Tang Ren nodded: “So, as long as Du Gang does not go to Pangu Continent, he will be safe, right?”

“Correct, as long as he does not go to Pangu Continent, unless someone from Qiankun Continent takes action, no one can threaten him…”

After leaving the virtual universe, Tang Ren, with a complex heart, headed towards the Secret Realm.

He didn’t expect to hear so many secret stories today.

After walking some distance, he summoned a shadow and asked softly, “Noticed any actions over there?” Soon, a deep voice replied.

“No abnormal activities!”

Tang Ren nodded, dismissed the shadow, and continued to walk towards the Secret Realm.

One could infer from this that Jiang Tianpeng indeed intends to seize the inheritance of the Ancient God.

This is indeed a silent threat!

The only advantage we have now is that the enemy is unaware of our knowledge of his motive!

As he contemplated, he arrived at the Secret Realm and looked at Old Zhang and Old Huo. He asked, “Is there any news?”

Old Zhang shook his head: “Not much has changed. Du Gang has mastered three mysteries. Only the last one remains, and then his comprehension of the Gold Element will reach nine Laws…”

Tang Ren couldn’t help but sigh: “He truly is a Sacred Body, the speed of his comprehension is simply terrifying!”

For ordinary people to fully comprehend a law from nothing, it takes a period of thousands, or even tens of thousands of years.

Like Chen Feng and others, who are over four thousand years old, they have only just progressed from the fourth to the fifth level of the domain. This tells us how difficult it is to understand these mysteries!

Afterwards, everything was calm, there were no waves in the academy, and the news about Du Gang was still only about his previous victories in 160,000 matches, earning him the title of the strongest newcomer.

Time gradually passed, and it was finally the 27th hour.

At this moment, Du Gang, who is in the Secret Realm and practicing happily, was suddenly enveloped in an invisible transmission force.

The next second, when the scene in front of his eyes blurred and he started seeing again, he found himself outside the Secret Realm.

“Ah, it’s over already?!”

Du Gang looked down at the Five-Pointed Star under his feet, feeling a bit unsatisfied.

Inside the Secret Realm, practicing the Gold Element Laws was really quick. In just one day, he had understood four Laws!

“Du Gang, you’re finally out!”

Suddenly, a kindly old voice came from the side.

Du Gang turned his head and noticed that in addition to Old Zhang and Old Huo, there was also an old man with white hair present.

“Who are you?”

From the old man’s words, Du Gang inferred that he had been waiting for him, so he asked curiously.

“I am Tang Ren, the dean of the Elite Academy!”

The dean?

Subconsciously, Du Gang looked at Old Zhang and Old Huo standing on the other side. Seeing that they were all standing straight and not sitting on lounge chairs, he mostly believed Tang Ren.

Only after seeing the two of them nod, he turned around and asked, “Principal, were you waiting for me specially kere? What do you want…?”

Tang Ren pondered for a second, then spoke, “Du Gang, do you know that in this Secret Realm, the distance one can advance depends on the person’s qualifications?”

Du Gang was taken aback. He was actually unaware of this rule in the Secret Realm. He had assumed it was only a test of strength.

Without waiting for Du Gang’s response, Tang Ren continued, “Ordinary people can only advance less than a thousand meters. Even Luo Shan only managed ten thousand meters. Besides them, those with Sacred Bodies can reach fifty thousand meters. The only ones who can advance to the hundred thousand meter mark are those with divine bodies…”

Du Gang was speechless. Was he exposed?

Although it was earlier than he had anticipated, he wasn’t afraid. The surge in his strength gave him a sense of being a giant who could crush everyone present.

The real reason was, he thought that since the Principal hadn’t arrested him, and was waiting for him politely, it meant that not much was wrong!

As expected, in his next sentence, Tang Ren started to explain, “Don’t worry, we harbor no ill intentions towards you…”

Seeing Du Gang remaining unmoved, he thought for a bit and then revealed the entire sequence of events from start to end.

Of course, he did not mention the information about the Ancient God, it was an internal matter, and he refrained from carelessly discussing it.

After hearing everything, Du Gang furrowed his brows, “So you’re saying, Jiang Tianpeng, this Eternal Level powerhouse, has his sights set on me?!”

“Correct!”

Tang Ren nodded, continuing, “But don’t worry too much. For the sake of secrecy, he won’t openly act against you. So, you are relatively safe in Qiankun Continent. As long as you don’t go to Pangu Continent, you’ll have no problem…”

Rather than paying attention to his words, Du Gang narrowed his eyes and calmly asked, “What is your purpose in telling me all this? Both Jiang Tianpeng and the Jiang family are incredibly powerful entities. As a small Sector Lord Level principal inside a middle-ranking cosmic nation, how dare you offend them?!”

There’s no hatred or love in this world without a reason, so he didn’t trust this Tang Ren!

Tang Ren reacted, realizing that his words may indeed be somewhat sudden. Since it was their first meeting, it was normal for Du Gang to resist!

He pondered for two seconds and finally said, “Luo Shan is my student, and I am his class teacher!”

“What?”

Du Gang was surprised. He had just recently heard the famous name of Luo Shan, the most talented individual in Qiankun Continent in the past ten million years!

Tang Ren nodded, saying, “My position as Principal is actually related to Luo

Shan…”

“Luo Shan comes from an ordinary background, as do I…”

“When Luo Shan once offended an Eternal Level entity, I was the one protecting him! ”

“I am not bragging about it, I just want to tell you that I will not allow any of my students being murdered inside this academy…”

After seeing the surprised expression appearing on Du Gang’s face, he continued, “Every individual, besides cultivating their path, should also follow their path of the heart!”

“My path of the heart is to protect my students!”

“This is the righteousness my teacher passed down to me!”

Listening to these righteous words, even though it sounded absurd to Du Gang, were there still people like that in the world?

However, from the vigorous voice and the righteous tone, he could hear that he was serious!

Scratching his head, Du Gang nodded, “Alright, I trust you!”

After all, if this man were truly malevolent, Luo Shan would not have returned to the academy, neither would he have made efforts to make him the Principal.

Therefore, most likely, everything Tang Ren said was true!

To Du Gang, a high probability sufficed. He did not wish to exhaust his brain wondering about the actual intentions of others.

Anyway, if there are enemies, they will reveal themselves in due time.

Any treacherous plot, and any monsters, all shall be crushed with a single punch!

This time, after coming out of training, Du Gang had gone through a significant change.

If previously, he was fearful and had several worries, then now, he was like a person ready to dazzle everyone with his sharpness.

The Secret Realm of the Broken Sword was a Gold Element Law Secret Realm!

It was intrinsically a dazzling place. Du Gang, having delved deep and trained for one day, influenced by its ambience, or perhaps influenced by the omnipresent Sword Intent, had his fear and other emotions wiped clean. All that remained was his pure path!

Nobody knew that even though the Secret Realm of the Broken Sword was a place for practicing the Gold Element Laws, it was also a place to cultivate one’s heart.

Tang Ren nodded with a smile, “So, you just need to stay in Qiankun Continent for now…”

However, Du Gang shook his head, “I cannot stay here forever, I have my mission…”

Having accepted the inheritance from the Ancient God, he had naturally taken on the Ancient God’s Karma. He had avenged Du Kang’s revenge, but the Ancient God’s revenge he had yet to avenge!

He did not have to worry about it before as he did not know who the enemy of the Ancient God was.

But now that he knew that the enemy of the Ancient God was the Jiang family of the Cosmic Colosseum, he could no longer hide here.

Seeing Tang Rents bitter expression, Du Gang laughed, “Principal, don’t worry. I will only venture to Pangu Continent when I have ample strength and am confident in succeeding!”

After exchanging conversations with the Principal, Du Gang returned to his dormitory.

Although this trip brought an additional hidden enemy, he now knew who the enemy of the Ancient God was, which wasn’t necessarily bad news!

Since the enemy was not making it public , there was no need to worry for now. He had to focus on improving his strength. That was the most crucial part.

If he had power, regardless of how Jiang Tianpeng schemed or whether Tang Ren was being genuine or not, nobody would dare to mess with him.

“What’s my next plan?!”

“Challenge the medium tower, earn Contribution Points!”

Access to the Qiankun Secret Realm requires Contribution Points.

Furthermore, if he wanted to challenge the Supreme Tower, he would still need Contribution Points!

So, earning Contribution Points by challenging the medium tower was something he couldn’t avoid.

Soon, after a series of selections, several images of the medium towers were displayed.

“Currently, five Gold Element Law medium towers are suitable for you. They were all created by aggressive Sector Lord Level powerhouses…”

“The usage price for these medium towers is the same, one million points per time…”

Du Gang nodded, “Alright, let’s start with these five medium towers!”

Without any hesitation, he quickly asked to plan the route, and then set off again, this time towards the medium tower!
