8 Stones of Eternity
New Problem.

Chapter 89. New Problem.

The Warlord did not know what was going on with Cao Tian Jun, as they were far from the main mine. He fought fiercely against the Spider Queen, and managed to severely injure his opponent.

Before slashing at the neck of the Spider Queen, suddenly the secret weapon on her enemy's shoulder attacked. It was fortunate that the Warlord immediately retreated so as not to be impaled by the poisonous secret weapon of the opponent.

This opportunity was used by the Queen of Spiders to escape into the forest. In order for the Warlord not to chase after him, the Spider Queen spread poisonous webs in every way of his escape.

The Warlord did not chase after the Spider Queen because of being blocked by the poisonous web, he immediately flew back to the main mine. Arriving at the mine, he did not discover Cao Tian Jun's whereabouts.

Then, he saw a clumping black fog hovering in the air. Slowly, the black fog descended and stopped when it was on the ground.

Out of curiosity, the Warlord approached the black fog, but his body instantly bounced and crashed into the trees. He coughed up blood and saw his chest as if hit by a blow, becoming blackish bruised and feeling hot.

"Gruesome!" he murmured and stayed away from the slowly expanding black fog.

"Is His Majesty in it and is fighting The King Of Dark Matter?" the warlord guessed with concern, he did not go and wait but kept his distance from the black fog.

Inside the black fog, Cao Tian Jun who was possessed by The King Of Dark Matter, immediately blocked his vital body tissues, only opening up the body parts that led to his dantian.

Originally, Tian Sun smiled triumphantly at the feeling of successfully possessing the opponent's body, but his smile instantly evaporated as his black fog energy dwindled, resulting in his strength weakening.

"What are you doing, you little bastard?!" tian Sun who was trying to escape.

In a calm tone, Cao Tian Jun replied, "receive fate! Don't you want to rule my body?"

Before Tian Sun replied, sounding in his mind the voice of the Dark Matter envoy, he said, "let him absorb the Dark Matter energy until your power drops to the level of the Crossing Tribulation. This is my master's order!"

The King Dark Matter was shocked at Dark Matter's orders, he was clearly unwilling to lose the strength he had painstakingly achieved all along. Yes, although most of it is obtained from Dark Matter envoys.

Due to Tian Sun's hesitation, the Dark Matter envoy spoke again, "don't worry! My master will impart purer energy and make you reach the highest power quickly. This is also to throw away the energy you absorbed earlier, the impure energy!"

Before binding a contract with the Dark Matter envoy, Tian Sun had absorbed the impure surrounding natural energy, and came into contact with the black fog energy.

Therefore, even though his strength was on par with Cao Tian Jun, he was unable to defeat him, despite having Dark Matter ability.

After listening to the Dark Matter envoy's explanation, Tian Sun was still hesitant, but his words were indeed true. Moreover, it was impossible for Dark Matter envoys to lie because they had been bound by a soul contract.

"If I'm weak, how do I escape?" tian Sun asked who was thinking about his safety.

"That's easy! My master will save you for wanting to meet. When you meet, you do not talk much or ask questions, just shut up and listen to his words "the messenger from Matter replied according to the command.

The instant Tian Sun's doubts disappeared, he was excited to meet the ruler of the entire universe, the real ruler.

Suddenly, Tian Sun sensed strength, another force entering his body. That power is not to fight, but rather the power to survive.

Cao Tian Jun was clearly unaware of the conversation between Tian Sun and the Dark Matter envoy, he was focused on absorbing the black fog energy. He locked both of his brows as his dantian was filled with black fog energy. Surprisingly, he did not break through immediately.

"Am I experiencing a cultivation bottleneck?" inner Cao Tian Jun who had never experienced anything like this.

But, he was reminded of the teaching of his teacher, where one experiences a bottleneck in his cultivation having two traits, first, the dantian is unable to absorb spiritual energy, the, that's because there are acupuncture points that are blocked so that they close the energy entrance.

To overcome this problem, the acupuncture points had to be opened, and Cao Tian Jun had opened all the acupoints. So, this is not the cause of self not breaking through immediately.

Second, the dantian was full but did not break through immediately, it was because the energy absorbed was impure. If left unchecked and still forced by constantly cultivating, it would inhibit growth. The danger, cultivation will decrease as time goes by because the absorbed energy has not been purified.

These second traits were similar to those experienced by Cao Tian Jun. But the thing was, he used the Eight Laws of Soul Cultivation Book and not the others. It should not be an obstacle as it absorbed the black fog energy.

"I'll absorb it until you throw up!!" tian Sun said as Cao Tian Jun was thinking about his problem.

Finally, Cao Tian Jun discovered the cause after Tian Sun spoke, he guessed that this enemy had the ability to prevent him from increasing his strength.

"Oh...! So it's because of you?" cao Tian Jun's guess with a faint tone.

His enemy's words were very suspicious, making Cao Tian Jun think hard because he wanted to know the enemy's plan. It was hateful at first and has suddenly turned out to be good.

Not wanting to experience anything bad happen to him, Cao Tian Jun poured black fog energy into the clear ball of his enemy he had taken.

"Yes, so... Keep absorbing my strength!" Tian Sun was excited as he sensed Cao Tian Jun re-absorb his strength quickly, faster than before.

Tian Sun's strength quickly dropped to the peak level of the Crossing Tribulation. Surprisingly, Cao Tian Jun still did not increase his strength in the slightest.

Tian Sun knew if his enemy failed to increase his strength, but he did not care about wanting to meet with Lord Dark Matter as soon as possible.

Suddenly, Tian Sun gained the strength to break away from Cao Tian Jun. He instinctively turned away from his enemy and directly attacked with full force.

Booms...

Cao Tian Jun did not have time to react when his enemy escaped, and his enemy's punch hit his chest. Fortunately, his opponent's strength was weaker so it didn't hurt him. After attacking, Tian Sun disappeared.

While the Warlord who always paid attention to the wisps of black fog, where the black fog quickly disappeared. Then he saw Cao Tian Jun staggering backwards while holding his chest.

He was excited to see the Crown Prince who had survived after the sound of an energy explosion, he hurriedly walked over to Cao Tian Jun who was still holding his own chest.

"Is His Majesty alright?" warlord's Concern.

"I'm fine! But he escaped again!" cao Tian Jun replied in a disappointed tone, but he hid his problem from the Warlord.

There was a feeling of sadness in the heart of the Warlord as the threat was not yet over. But hearing Cao Tian Jun's words, he became excited.

"His strength decreased to the level of Crossing Tribulation. We'll be safe for a while. With his strength weakened, we have time to improve and strengthen in all areas, especially increasing the strength to fight him. I don't know when he'll come, at least by then we'll be better prepared to deal with him."

Suddenly the happy Warlord hugged Cao Tian Jun like his own son, and was reciprocated with a warm embrace.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty!" regret the Warlord for acting recklessly.

Cao Tian Jun laughed as he patted the Warlord's left shoulder. After that, he said, "no problem. I like that there are no boundaries between us. Come on, we go to the main mine to set up the Array Formation."

Then, Cao Tian Jun and the Warlord rushed towards the main mine. The two of them immediately harbored the Stone Formation Array that surrounded the entrance pathway into the mine. After everything was finished, Cao Tian Jun gave the Protection Formation control plate to the Warlord.

Then, the two of them returned to the Star Sea Kingdom with excited hearts. But not with Cao Tian Jun, where the problem had yet to be resolved with a dantian full of black fog energy, this energy was like a disease to him.

During the trip to the kingdom, Cao Tian Jun thought of a way to solve this problem, a problem he had never experienced, nor had his teacher ever taught him knowledge of this.

Upon arriving at the kingdom, they both saw the North Gate surrounded by the Imperial army and the Nine Heavens Kingdom. But they were unable to destroy the Protection Formation.

Cao Tian Jun immediately disguised himself as a brown-skinned young man and was seen by the Warlord. The Warlord knew the purpose of his goal to disguise himself, because he would enter the competition and did not want to give unnecessary problems, new problems that affected the academy and many people.

"We're destroying their fleet! Uncle don't point at yourself. Let's just say that we're hired to protect the kingdom!" cao Tian Jun's plan and head nod by the Warlord.

After the two of them disguised themselves, they attacked the enemy spaceship blocking the North Gate...

Previously the arrival of Cao Tian Jun due to still being inside the main mine, the imperial general and the Eagle Eyes General took the initiative to attack the Capital City, instead, but they were surprised that there was already a Protection Formation protecting the capital of the Star Sea Kingdom, when there was no one before.

Queen Juan, Empress Yuan and Consort Yi were obviously worried by the surprise attack at a time when Cao Tian Jun was nowhere to be seen. However seeing the strength of the Protection Formation solid against the attacks, made them become relieved.

Then, the three of them and all of the royal ranks saw the two people who were attacking the spacecraft fleet from behind.

The sudden attack clearly shocked the three generals and their soldiers, even panicking the disciples from the Ninth Heaven School who were participating on the orders of the teachers.

Cao Tian Jun's strength, which exceeded anyone, easily destroyed the spaceship, and directly targeted the three generals. While the Warlord, blocking the soldiers who want to protect his three generals.

It didn't take long, Cao Tian Jun defeated the three generals by himself. However, before Cao Tian Jun killed the three generals, they fled using the Teleportation Jade.

With the escape of the three generals, made his troops panic because they did not have a leader. All the soldiers fled in all directions before being killed, thus the teachers who saved his disciple before being slaughtered by the Warlord.
