Is escape possible?
Duge sighed inwardly. Pan-Universe Entertainment really didn't care about him at all!
And considering it, he understood why.
A company that treated civilizations as playthings, spanning numerous universes, how could they care about a Gladiator Beast that's kept for their entertainment?
Even if this Gladiator Beast broke out of its cage and took down one of their employees, what would that matter to them?
As long as it didn't escape the arena, it was still a Gladiator Beast. As long as it could make money for them, killing one or two employees probably wouldn't be a big deal!
However.
The next Alien Battlefield could really be his last chance.
Duge was aware that he was Pan-Universe Entertainment's cash cow. The greater his influence in the Alien Battlefield, the higher the chance he could go to Pan-Universe Entertainment and survive?
If he ended up causing an upheaval in their game, it seemed likely that what awaited him was the so-called dissection of his Spiritual Energy...
Moreover, Duge didn't trust the promises made by Pan-Universe Entertainment.
Putting himself in their shoes, if it were his place, he wouldn't let go of such an exceptional employee either, only after completely extracting his remaining value would they let him go.
To retire and provide welfare to an old employee who has given his life's work? Not even worth considering.
Strength, only with the strength to turn the tables, could one truly control one's own destiny...
While Pan-Universe Entertainment was scheming, Duge was also planning.
The Underworld Emperor, Demon Emperor, and other world powers seeking breakthroughs were his pawns. As long as they grew strong enough, with them as comrades, he might stand a chance in a fight against Pan-Universe Entertainment!
Duge had verified through the beating of Bai Long that Pan-Universe Entertainment, which used spiritual power as a currency of trade, might indeed lack their own physical bodies.
Bai Long's body was possessed.
The employees of Pan-Universe Entertainment who entered the Alien Battlefield for clearing used bodies refined by Alien Warriors with key words...
This was probably not a coincidence.
Previously, Duge thought that Pan-Universal Entertainment Company's deployment of souls was more efficient.
Now, it seems likely that their development of remote soul deployment technology was because they had no bodies at all.
The skills brought back by Alien Warriors returning from the Alien Battlefield were random, and the chances were very slim.
That is to say, the beings of Pan-Universe Entertainment existing in the form of spiritual power likely had great difficulty manipulating the laws of key words.
Or rather, they could only use the awakened skills by relying on Alien Warriors' bodies.
Just like Bai Long, who didn't seem to have many keyword skills at all.
He would consistently bring all the skills of the second keyword out each time, which was likely a special case.
As long as he went to Pan-Universe Entertainment in his complete form, not just as spiritual power, relying on the combination of over a dozen skills, he might have a chance to escape...
Up until now, the number of skills he had accumulated was already nineteen.
...
Outside the base.
Nan Youlong looked at the returning warriors with joy spreading across his face. "Gao Ming, don't tell me Duge was kept back by Bai Long again? Tell me, what was the situation on the Alien Battlefield this time? Was it first place again?"
"With Duge there, it was definitely first place." Gao Ming didn't speak, but other Alien Warriors rushed to say, "Staff Chief Nan, you don't know just how perilous this Alien Battlefield was, how impressive Brother Du was. Let me tell you this, if it weren't for Brother Du, all the Alien Warriors would have been wiped out, and I'm not just talking about those from Qiyuan Star, but everyone."
"Yes! Pan-Universe Entertainment is crazy, they suddenly raised the standard of the Alien Battlefield so high. Staff Chief Nan, we'd only been in the Alien Battlefield for a few days, and when I saw the numbers of the Alien Warriors plummeting rapidly, I was completely flabbergasted. It's all thanks to Brother Du who reminded us at the start to hold on, otherwise, I'm afraid none of us would have made it until Brother Du rose to the occasion..."
"Staff Chief Nan, guess how high our spiritual power is now? It'll scare you to death," said another warrior.
"What's going on?" Nan Youlong asked in astonishment.
The crowd began to talk at once, recounting the hardships of the Alien Battlefield and their gains.
Only Gao Ming, Yin Erfei, Yu Xia, and other Alien Warriors familiar with Duge occasionally looked back towards the exit.
Daoist Ancestor reincarnated as Feng Chang, Demon Emperor as He Yan, Underworld Emperor as Zhou Ronghe, Longevity Emperor as Peng Jing, and others remained silent.
They were adapting to their new bodies, sensing the environment of the new world.
This was their first time coming to the outside world, and even though they had all been powerful beings in their own worlds, they felt some trepidation in this unfamiliar world.
Especially since this world was devoid of the Spiritual Energy they were used to, which meant they could only use their Divine Souls...
Moreover, individuals such as the Daoist Ancestor had already discreetly confirmed that most Art Techniques could not be used here.
Clearly, the rules of the two worlds were not the same.
This only intensified their panic.
After all, the matter of possessing bodies was unlikely to be hidden from Pan-Universal Entertainment Company. Without Duge, no one knew what might happen next.
...
"Eighty-three million?" Nan Youlong was stunned by the number of spiritual power Hu Yu had mentioned. He stammered, "How is that possible? How can your spiritual power be so high?"
"The cultivation techniques from the Alien Battlefield can strengthen spiritual power," Hu Yu said with pride. "Brother Du is the Lord of the Three Realms. With all kinds of elixirs supplied for free, coupled with the constitution of Alien Warriors modified by the keywords, we advanced by leaps and bounds during our cultivation. When we emerged, naturally, our spiritual power reached such heights."
"When I checked the panel upon exiting, my spiritual power was over ninety million."
"I'm not as good as you guys, only sixty million."
