The system gave me immortality, and I survived everyone

Looking into Chen Changsheng's eyes, Bai Ze pursed his lips and said, "You're still as stubborn as ever."

"But you act so domineeringly, aren't you afraid that the people around you won't understand you?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said, "Those who truly understand me will understand me no matter what."

"Those who don't understand me will still not understand me even if I explain all the reasons clearly."

"If it weren't for the support of people like you who understand me, do you really think my hands wouldn't tremble when making those important decisions?"

Upon receiving this answer, Bai Ze's lips curled up slightly, and he said, "That's more like human speech."

"Speaking of which, you went to such lengths against Yin Jie and the others, weren't you afraid of killing them?!"

"They've even used the Gold-Eating Insects and the Cursed Spell. Are they still your grandsons and great-grandsons?"

Faced with Bai Ze's "questioning", Chen Changsheng looked at the scene on the light screen and said: "The reason for taking such a heavy-handed approach is to make them understand that they are not invincible right now."

"Perhaps their skills have reached a high level, but when it comes to dealing with some tough opponents, they still lack experience."

"After this final test, they will truly be ready to graduate."

"Furthermore, in this life, I plan to personally participate. How can I do without setting up a few opponents?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ze raised an eyebrow and said, "You plan to wipe them all out?"

"Pretty much. Apart from that kid Mingyu, whom I won't fight, most of the others will likely become my opponents."

"To become the Great Emperor of the Bitter Sea, one must be invincible in this era, if not unmatched."

Upon receiving this answer, Bai Ze's tail immediately began to wag.

"So you're saying I'm going to get involved too?"

"You can come on if you want."

"Of course I want to. I've wanted to beat you up for a long time."

"Now that there's such a fair opportunity, why shouldn't I participate?"

Seeing Bai Ze's eager eyes, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said, "Alright, let's have a real battle then."

"For the sake of our friendship, I will not use any underhanded methods when I fight you."

"So crazy?"

Bai Ze looked Chen Changsheng up and down, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Facing Bai Ze's gaze, Chen Changsheng raised his right hand, using his thumb and forefinger to make a very small gesture, and smiled.

"Not too arrogant, just a little bit arrogant."

"What state are you in now?"

"Third-Rank Immortal King!"

"You're a third-grade Celestial King, and I'm a sixth-grade Celestial King. Do you think you can keep up with my speed?"

Upon learning that Chen Changsheng was three minor realms behind him, Bai Ze instantly became arrogant.

Seeing this, Chen Changsheng turned to look at the light screen and smiled, "True geniuses are those who defeat the strong with the weak and fight beyond their level."

"I should have no major problems crossing three minor realms."

"You're just bragging!"

"You think you can fight me across three minor realms? Do you really think I'm made of clay?!"

"If you don't believe me, that's fine too. Anyway, the promise I just made will always stand."

"If you're willing, we can start right now."

Looking at Chen Changsheng's calm expression, Bai Ze suddenly felt a little guilty.

Having spent so many years by Chen Changsheng's side, Bai Ze knew Chen Changsheng's abilities perfectly well, even though others were unaware of them.

Being only three minor realms ahead, I'm not sure I can beat this guy.

"I'm not in the mood to fight you right now. The real masters are always the last to appear."

"I'll let you cultivate for a while first!"

Upon hearing Bai Ze's words, Chen Changsheng smiled calmly and chose not to expose him.

......

Cosmic black hole.

"Om~"

The massive restriction suddenly fluctuated.

Sensing the commotion, Lin Yao and the others, who had been lurking in the cosmic black hole, also revealed themselves.

Because their "savior," whom they had been waiting for for half a year, had finally arrived.

Looking at the shooting star streaking across the distance, Feng Ran said, "There are four of us in total. Shall we each take charge of one?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yao looked at it and said, "Okay, I'll take care of Long Aotian."

"Judging from his aura, this guy must have been in seclusion for a while."

"I'm also very interested to see which is stronger, the golden body of a Buddhist monk or the physical body of a dragon."

"If you choose Long Aotian, then I'll choose Li Changsheng."

"This guy seems to have something interesting about him, and I want to take a closer look."

"Okay, that's settled then!"

"The remaining two will be handled by Vice Dean Yin and Mo Bai."

After saying that, Lin Yao and Feng Ran immediately went their separate ways.

Long Aotian and the others, who had entered the cosmic black hole, had no idea what they were about to face.

......

East of the cosmic black hole.

"boom!"

He crashed heavily to the ground, and Long Aotian warily surveyed his surroundings.

Before he could even figure out where he was, a huge meteor hammer came straight at his face.

"clang!"

Long Aotian caught the meteor hammer, which was as big as a small mountain, with one hand. Looking at the cold mechanical puppet, there was no fear in Long Aotian's eyes.

"Squeak~"

With a slight exertion of force, Long Aotian's meteor hammer, crafted from high-grade metal, emitted a sickeningly loud sound.

"boom!"

With a swing of his left fist, Long Aotian shattered the meteor hammer with a single blow.

He then leaped into the air, using only his physical explosive power to catch up with the rapidly retreating metal golem.

"Clang clang clang!"

The sound of hammering echoed incessantly as Long Aotian, relying solely on his physical strength, pounded the enormous metal puppet into an iron disc.

"Whoo~"

As he slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, a hint of excitement flashed in Long Aotian's eyes.

Because I am now far stronger than I was a year ago.

"brush!"

"Ding!"

A cold light flashed, and an immense crisis of death instantly enveloped Long Aotian.

Strangely, the expected attack did not come. When he turned around, a burly man appeared behind him.

"It's good to make progress, but don't let your guard down too much."

Seeing Chen Xiao not far away, Long Aotian immediately asked happily, "Master, what are you doing here?"

"I'll tell you the specifics later. Right now, you need to run."

Upon hearing this, Long Aotian noticed a strangely shaped puppet in the distance.

The puppet resembles a praying mantis in appearance and is about the size of an adult male.

What attracts the most attention are its two enormous scythes made of black metal.

"Master, is this the puppet that guards the black hole in the universe?"

"brush!"

"clang!"

Before he could finish speaking, a huge scythe appeared above Long Aotian's head.

Its speed was so fast that Long Aotian didn't even have a chance to react.

Fortunately, Chen Xiao managed to catch the black sickle with two fingers.

"Still not leaving?"

Looking at Long Aotian, who was standing there dumbfounded, Chen Xiao urged him impatiently.

P.S.: I'm a bit busy today, so the second chapter will be posted a little later (to make up for the delays these past few days, I'll add an extra chapter tomorrow!).
