The Geared Immortal

Chapter 782

(Unedited)

…

After setting up the trap for that saint ruler who was aiming for his life, Hao Long (Shin Jiao), exited the spatial tear after hiding his gear inside his space. He was greeted with many audiences cheering for their group which was able to survive and was chosen as the 18 remaining contestants of the Heaven and Earth opening.

And now those 18 contestants would be fighting against each other to determine who would be the top 10 to earn rewards from the organizers of this spectacular event.

The audiences are hyped and excitement is in the air as they could not wait to see a one-on-one battle between these geniuses of the human race.

Meanwhile, in every main city, they are watching those people coming out of the portal and were also filled with enthusiasm as if what they have learned from before was washed away by the excitement and exhilaration of the tournament.

Meanwhile, on the floating stadium, the saint rulers are waiting for someone to exit the spatial tear. Out of the seven representatives, two were affected by the dark aura and were purged by the combined strength of the saint rulers. Now that only 5 of them were left, they are waiting for Kong Lai to exit the spatial tear.

Suddenly the spatial tear began to collapse and this made the four saint rulers showed worried expressions. They did not expect that Kong Lai would not exit the space. Now they doubt that something must have gone wrong, or that something is happening to Kong Lai.

"Saint Ruler Kong Lai did not exit… What is happening?" one of them asked with a frown.

"I found it weird how Kong Lai is acting these past few days. Plus he seems to harbor some enmity with that gold level young lad."

"This is not the time for this. We have to organize everything and start the final battle between these promising young people."

As they began discussing what to do next, one of them, a female Saint Ruler shifted her gaze towards Hao Long. After watching him for a while, a slight smile appears on her beautiful face.

"Interesting… who would have known that he could defeat Kong Lai in there…" she thought.

The saint rulers began giving their commands and the preparation for the final battle would start soon.

Meanwhile, in front of the floating screens, the people began to see the roster of those 18 people. This time the information is already complete. They show how long those people have been in the immortal land and their achievements.

People are more curious about those previously rated as top ten especially Linja Ya.

According to the information, she came to the immortal land about 20 years ago from a small planet in a galaxy that looks like a dust cloud. That means in just 20 years, she was able to reach level 79. This only shows how good she is in cultivating and her understanding of the Dao laws.

On the list, she is considered as the youngest and the strongest, which truly astounded everyone. When they saw that she doesn\'t have any partners yet, many young men began to show their desire to woo her. With her genius-level ability, many have already decided to wait for her after the Heaven and Earth Opening ended.

Meanwhile, Hao Long\'s data came out and it was not that impressive. He has stayed in the immortal land for 500 years before reaching level 79 which is only a normal thing. But what impressed the audience is his luck in these battles.

They saw him using an artifact that could shot his enemies even though he is very far from them. It is a deadly artifact which many would like to get their hands on.

Then on the large floating screen, the replay of the battle was shown which viewed the prowess of every competitor in this contest.

  Some of the contestants who have already recovered decided to watch the screen which has taken their interest for a while now. When they saw the battles, they were amazed. Some began scouting to prepare themselves in fighting their \'would be\' opponents.

Meanwhile, Hao Long was preparing himself inside a room when he heard some knocking sound.

When he opened the door, he saw two people.

Linja Ya and Suha Loo…

"Hello!" Suha Loo greeted with a big smile on his calm face.

"Greetings senior brother…" Linja Ya greeted with cupped hands.

Hao Long was a bit surprised but did not stand on attention as he gestured for them to get inside.

"I did not want to waste senior brother\'s time. I\'m just here to once again give my thanks to you for your assistance back there. If not for you, I would have been eliminated from this contest." Linja Ya said.

"Me too… Thank you, senior brother…"

The two are calling Hao Long senior brother because he\'s been in the immortal land longer than they were. Hao Long did not bother with the formalities and just nodded his head.

"It\'s not a problem, I just hated those demons…" he said casually.

When the two heard it, they suddenly showed realization in their expressions.

"By the way senior brother… How did you know that they are… possessed?" Suha Loo suddenly asked.

With a smile on his face, Shin Jiao takes out a piece of circular glass incased with a golden frame.

"This is a detector… I used this to detect any anomalies within their auras." He said as he handed it to Suha Loo.

When Suha Loo received it, he directly put it in his eyes. Then what he saw next surprised him.

"This… how could it show such a thing?" he blurted with astonishment in his eyes.

The thing that he is seeing right now is a piece of information about Hao Long\'s power level and the type of energy in his body and his Dao law level.

As these things could be seen through one\'s aura, Shin Jiao has already programmed the glass to show such basic information.

But for those who could see it for the first time, this information is truly baffling. In a fight, knowing your enemy\'s power is an advantage.

"Brother Hao… could… could I have this?" Suha Loo asked without holding back.

Although he feels embarrassed, if Hao Long gives it to him, then he would surely be grateful.

"I know that this is important, if you want we can exchange artifacts of the same value… I have many with me." Suha Loo said realizing the situation.

"Haha… No worries, you can have that. I still have plenty of those… Here, you can also have one sister Linja." Hao Long said as he handed another one to Linja Ya who reluctantly accepted the gift.

She is a bit curious as to why Suha Loo suddenly wanted this piece of glass.

But when she looks at it, she suddenly showed a surprised look in her eyes.

"Brother Hao… this… I… I can\'t accept such a precious thing." She suddenly said while trying to give it back to Hao Long.

"Look, I still have many of those…" Hao Long said as he showed another two of the same artifact.

When the two saw that, they feel a bit embarrassed but a gift is still a gift. So they suddenly take out an artifact to give to Hao Long. Since they received his gift, Hao Long also received theirs.

As the three parted ways, Hao Long return to the confines of his room and began to inspect the artifact they gave him.

A slight smile appears on his face as he could immediately recognize those artifacts. Those things were actually bought from his old shop in the Gipard Town, the Mystique blacksmith shop.

Hao Long just hid them inside his dimension and began inspecting the small world inside of his body.

Meanwhile, in Ji village, a grumpy young woman is currently showing an unsatisfied frown on her face. In fact, ever since Shin Jiao disappears, Luna has been feeling grumpy. She did not know why but she could not concentrate on her crafting.

She knew that it started when she saw that Hao Long taking out that rifle which she could recognize at one glance. This is because she knew that the rifle belongs to Shin Jiao. She didn\'t know how he did it, but she feels uneasy at that time.

And it was true especially when the station received a new video feed from some of the cameras. They saw what happened inside the spatial tear, that huge leviathan creature and the treachery of that saint ruler.

Although Shin Jiao was able to escape the dimension and trapped that saint lord, she could not help but worry.

"Hey, Sister Luna, let\'s eat…" Maga Luan called after she finished cooking.

"Hmmm… That smells nice. You really are a good cook, Maga…" Luna Halil said as she hopped on the dining table.

"What do you think brother Shin is doing right now?" suddenly Maga Luan asked while looking at the Tv screen.

Luna just showed a faint smile on her face. She did not want to say anything to Maga Luan so that she would not worry about that guy.

"Don\'t worry about that fool… He would rather run around outside than spend his time with two beautiful women… truly a fool." Luna said with a smirk.

Hearing Luna\'s words, Maga Luan could not help but blush.
