Chapter 289: Hand Over All Resources?

In Li Xiaojun’s divine sense, the black hole star spun rapidly like a top.

However, on this fast-spinning "top," Li Xiaojun used his divine sense to see some living beings.

Quickly, he noticed that the beings on the black hole were mostly from the Profound Immortal realm… along with one Human.

The presence of a Human caught Li Xiaojun by surprise.

Seeing that the beings above the black hole were only Profound Immortal cultivators relaxed him a bit.

However, he soon faced a dilemma: how to land on the rapidly spinning black hole.

Though the black hole star was not large, it spun at an incredible speed, reaching one-fifth of the speed of light.

Landing vertically on the black hole would be quite challenging.

After considering it for a moment, Li Xiaojun quickly came up with a plan.

He began to fly in the direction of the black hole’s rotation.

His speed soon matched the rotation speed of the black hole.

This made it appear as if he was stationary above the black hole’s surface.

However, Li Xiaojun also realized that within the black hole’s horizon, his flying speed was significantly affected by the black hole’s interference.

In space, he could fly at speeds over a thousand times the speed of light, but within the black hole’s horizon, he could only reach five or six times the speed of light.

At that moment, Li Xiaojun finally understood why so many Profound Immortal cultivators were trapped on the black hole star.

It was simply too difficult to reach the speed required to escape the black hole.

The Earth rotates at over four hundred meters per second, but escaping it requires speeds several times that.

Thus, to break free from this black hole, one must fly at multiples of the speed of light.

Yet, within the horizon, even Li Xiaojun, a powerful Golden Immortal, could only achieve five or six times the speed of light, making it impossible for a Profound Immortal to escape.

With his current flying speed, he could barely manage to leave the black hole.

So, while this black hole could not trap Li Xiaojun, it was very easy for it to trap Profound Immortal cultivators.

…

Once Li Xiaojun’s flying speed matched the black hole’s rotational speed, he gradually descended towards the black hole star.

A few hours later, Li Xiaojun successfully stood on the surface of the black hole.

The black hole’s powerful gravity compressed the entire star into a nearly flat surface, so Li Xiaojun could hardly see any hills or valleys.

As soon as he landed on the black hole, others quickly noticed his presence.

The black hole star was simply too small, with a diameter of only twenty kilometers; even the divine sense perception range of the Profound Immortal cultivators outside the black hole could cover the entire star.

Moreover, since Li Xiaojun wasn’t actively hiding himself upon arrival, the beings above the black hole naturally detected him right away.

"Another unlucky soul has arrived."

"Heh heh, another unfortunate from the Human Race; this is getting interesting."

Many beings on the black star were chatting amongst themselves.

At that moment, a figure appeared in front of Li Xiaojun.

"Friend, I am Mo Qianqiu. I was trapped here thirty million years ago. Did you also get caught up in the black star?"

A middle-aged man, a late-stage Profound Immortal cultivator, greeted Li Xiaojun and inquired.

Li Xiaojun scanned the man with his divine sense and replied, "I came to this black star mainly to search for crafting materials. Do you know if there are any sixth-stage crafting materials here?"

"Friend, you cannot be serious," Mo Qianqiu said, unable to believe Li Xiaojun’s words.

Who would come to the black star searching for crafting materials? Could he be out of his mind?

"Am I joking with you? Do you know if there are sixth-stage crafting materials here?" Li Xiaojun pressed on.

Though Mo Qianqiu thought Li Xiaojun was insane, he still said, "There are indeed quite a few sixth-stage crafting materials on the black star, but even so, you won’t be able to leave here. What good are the materials if you can’t escape? Even Golden Immortals cannot get out."

"Golden Immortals can’t escape?" Li Xiaojun was surprised.

He felt he could escape; he was only in the early Golden Immortal realm. Why would the man say that Golden Immortals couldn’t get out?

But then he realized.

The reason he could barely escape the black star was that his flying speed was much faster than that of an early Golden Immortal.

Moreover, his rule of space allowed him to enhance his speed by two to three times, which enabled him to reach the threshold for escaping the black hole.

If the beast tribe’s Lord Chiyu came here, he surely would not be able to get out.

"Heh heh, Human brat, you must have fled here while being pursued, right?"

Just then, a massive feline creature appeared not far from Li Xiaojun and let out a chuckle.

Hearing this, Mo Qianqiu’s expression changed immediately, his gaze turned icy as he looked at the creature. "Old Poison, are you looking for trouble?"

"Ha!" The massive feline creature, referred to as Old Poison, laughed lightly and replied, "It’s not that I look down on your Human Race; even if you add one more person to your kind, what does it matter? Do you still dare to act against us beasts?"

Li Xiaojun frowned at this.

At that moment, more Profound Immortal strongholds from the beast tribe arrived.

As they came, they surrounded Li Xiaojun and Mo Qianqiu in the middle.

"Newcomer, hand over all your cultivation resources…"

A Profound Immortal stronghold from the Heavenly Tiger Tribe ordered Li Xiaojun in a cold tone.

The other beasts, though silent, also eyed Li Xiaojun with intense interest.

"What do you want? Do you think there are no humans here?" Mo Qianqiu scanned all the beasts with a cold tone.

At this moment, a bird-like beast spoke to Mo Qianqiu, "Mo, I advise you not to meddle. Although this newcomer belongs to your kind, being on the black star means he’s trapped here for life. There’s no need for you to stick your neck out."

Hearing this, Mo Qianqiu replied lightly, "If you want to target him, you’ll have to take me down first."

Li Xiaojun was surprised. He hadn’t expected that, in the black hole, someone would be willing to stand against all the beasts for him.

However, upon hearing Mo Qianqiu’s words, the Heavenly Tiger Profound Immortal stronghold impatiently said, "Everyone, let’s just capture this newcomer. If Mo Qianqiu tries to interfere, we’ll take him down too; there’s no need for further talk."

After saying this, it called out to everyone, "Let’s all go together!"

At those words, all the beasts charged at Li Xiaojun and Mo Qianqiu.

Just then, Li Xiaojun released the aura of his Golden Immortal realm.
