Chapter 1076: So Many People Here to Welcome Me?
The golden mark slowly merged onto the heart of the world, and this time it did not put up any resistance.
When Zhang Menglong could clearly sense the thoughts and will of the heart of the world through his own Soul Mark, he knew he had succeeded.
As Zhang Menglong completed the lodging of his Soul Mark, and with the feedback of his powerful Life Force, the cracks on the heart of the world instantly healed as good as new, even stronger than before.
From then on, the entire Universe Seven was closely tied to Zhang Menglong's destiny, sharing both glory and damage.
"Next, it's time to check out that Haotian Continent." With Zhang Menglong's guards and the students from the Super God Academy stationed at Universe Seven and the entire external administration center, there should be no major issues. Even if something uncontrollable occurred, he could immediately return through the Super God Academy.
"Gou Dan, give me the power of some random teacher!"
To open the portal to the medium world, one must possess power far beyond the limits this world could contain. Relying solely on Zhang Menglong's own power was insufficient; at most, he could tear open the void. However, this so-called void was merely the barrier of time and space, still within the confines of this world.
With the infusion of Level Eight medium Life Force, Zhang Menglong directly launched a punch forward.
This punch directly penetrated space, piercing the barrier of the world.
Zhang Menglong immediately stepped into that fissure because if such power sustained too long, the entire world might collapse from being unable to withstand it.
The fissure calmed down the instant Zhang Menglong disappeared.
...
"Wow, is this the place outside our world?"
Zhang Menglong felt as if he were floating in an ocean filled with bubbles, with each bubble being a world. Some bubbles existed independently, while others overlapped one another, surrounded by even larger bubbles.
Zhang Menglong was now in the air chamber between a bunch of small bubbles and one gigantic bubble.
It seemed that after penetrating that silky smooth membrane, there was another brand-new world.
"Gou Dan, is this the world inside Haotian Continent?" Zhang Menglong said as he looked at the slowly wriggling colorful membrane ahead.
[Yes, Principal, Haotian Continent is the medium world above your thousands of worlds, passing through this membrane is Haotian Continent.]
"Let's go!"
Zhang Menglong dove headfirst into the world of Haotian Continent.
...
At the moment of passing through the world, Zhang Menglong felt as if he were undergoing a baptism of power.
Eternal life was leaving his body, and every cell and organ in his body was undergoing subtle changes as the two worlds alternated.
[Establishing new coordinates, the principal can enter Haotian Continent from anywhere in the future]
[Gravity is about 68.7 times that of Earth, energy is 122 times denser than Universe Seven, the stability of space is 405 times that of Universe Seven, the strength of ordinary rocks is about 388 times that of Universe Seven, and its area is 120,000 times that of Universe Seven...]
Gou Dan quickly analyzed everything about this world.
The increased gravity, the stability of space, and the increased material strength all indicated that Zhang Menglong needed to adapt to this world.
For example, where he could casually destroy a planet before, now he might just be able to smash a mountain peak.
"What the hell is happening!"
When Zhang Menglong regained his bodily awareness, he found himself plummeting to the ground like a meteor.
He quickly donned his Iron Man armor, made during idle times, and as powerful flames erupted, a fierce propulsion force continually reduced his falling speed.
His speed only decreased to a bearable level right before hitting the ground.
"Boom!"
With a loud boom, Zhang Menglong landed directly in the middle of a massive desert, and the powerful impact formed a mushroom cloud entirely composed of yellow sand.
"Ptooey ptooey ptooey!" Zhang Menglong emerged from a pile of wreckage, with the S-grade alloy armor capable of easily smashing through a common rocky planet but only forming a small crater a few meters wide on the desert bedrock.
"No wonder it's a medium world; even randomly digging a stone here rivals a Level Six or even Level Seven martial weapon in hardness." Taking a few minutes to adapt to the strong gravity and atmosphere drastically different from Earth's, Zhang Menglong slowly flew out of the sand pit.
"What's going on?" Zhang Menglong was taken aback.
Surrounding the sand pit was a dense crowd of people in armor, each holding weapons, their auras approximately at Level Six Life Forms, which would be True Martial Stage Six in this world.
Besides them, there were a bunch of scholarly-looking figures hiding under the warriors' protection.
In front of them was a young man in luxurious clothes but in a sorry state, and a middle-aged man wielding a sword by his side. It was apparent that he was injured.
"Who is this? Is he the rebel here to rescue the Seventh Prince?"
"Wearing a cloak like he's got something to hide, can't be a good person!"
"Wait, do you remember that many years ago, our dynasty's Prophet Mr. Bai predicted there would be an extraterrestrial coming to overturn our dynasty, even the entire Haotian Continent?"
"I remember the prophet was executed as a fraud because of that prophecy, wasn't he?"
"No, wait. I recall the date he mentioned seems to be right around now."
"The Demon Spawn! Really, a Demon Spawn has descended from the sky!"
"He looks pretty much like one of us. Is he really a Demon Spawn?"
"We always thought this was nonsense, but Mr. Bai pinpointed the time and place this person would appear; perhaps..."
"But he looks so gentle and weak, doesn't seem like a heinous person, nor someone very powerful?"
"Appearances can be deceiving; just because he doesn't look dangerous doesn't mean he isn't."
...
The people surrounding the sand pit were watching Zhang Menglong warily, as if he were some sort of monster.
"Demon Spawn?" Zhang Menglong could naturally hear what they were saying.
Someone actually prophesied his arrival!
Zhang Menglong was quite surprised, and the fact that the prophecy indicated he would turn the whole world upside down—well, unfortunately, they might be right!
As for the term "Demon Spawn," it wasn't that Zhang Menglong wasn't willing to accept the title of a villain, but couldn't they come up with a slightly more sophisticated name? Demon Spawn doesn't sound much like a handsome fellow, and as a villain, it doesn't sound very impressive or domineering either.
If he were to have a nickname, it would need to sound downright imposing, such as Demon Lord.
However, it appears he's not the main focus today but has accidentally entered a "dungeon" in this new world. This group seemed to be hunting down the so-called Seventh Prince, and his chance appearance inadvertently confirmed the so-called "prophet's" prophecy.
"Whether it's the Demon Spawn or the Seventh Prince, we must eliminate them both today!" The scholarly-looking people showed delighted expressions, "Then His Highness the Crown Prince will surely reward us handsomely!"
"Charge! Capture that Seventh Prince first!"
Suddenly, the atmosphere turned hostile...
