# Chapter 2868: The Unfinished Progress Bar!

And Jiangnan wasn't worried about energy replenishment at all!

Because as long as Jiangnan opened a Black Hole Devouring Star, he could return to the Life Forbidden Zone and replenish energy from the Realm Source Forbidden Sea at any time!

After replenishing, he would just come back!

And Jiangnan might be the only being in the entire world who could freely enter and exit the Life Forbidden Zone without paying any price!

To Jiangnan, the Life Forbidden Zone was akin to a hidden cultivation chamber, where he didn't even have to worry about the flow of time!

But Jiangnan couldn't just cultivate there forever, hiding until he reached the Cosmos Realm, creating his own world, and then choosing a node to return!

Because currently, the load-bearing capacity of Jiangnan's Force of Will had a limit!

69 drops was the current limit of Jiangnan's capacity. If he absorbed any more, there would be a risk of being washed clean!

And as long as Jiangnan continued to grow, his will would strengthen, and his capacity would expand!

He could return to the Life Forbidden Zone at any time to absorb Realm Source Energy!

It felt quite like having his own backyard garden!

But what worried Jiangnan was that Brother Fan had also mastered Realm Source Energy, and he wasn't afraid of being washed clean because he was already pure!

So he could keep absorbing and keep strengthening!

Who knew how strong his main body had become? And this reconfigured will clone also shimmered with silver light among the countless stars!

There probably weren't many people in the Starry Sky who could stop Jiang Fan!

No matter what, letting the Final Absolute Black Hole Jet release the main body was Jiang Fan's ultimate goal!

He would definitely take action to achieve this goal!

It was easy to imagine that the Starry Sky would become even more chaotic!

No one could predict Jiang Fan's next move!

But Jiangnan didn't have time to deal with this matter. There wasn't much he could do about it right now either!

Finding answers was the most urgent matter for Jiangnan!

Otherwise, everything would be nothing but bubbles in a dream, flowers in a mirror, the moon's reflection in water...

Thinking of this, Jiangnan let out another sigh!

Black God couldn't stand it. He knew Jiangnan had things on his mind, each and every matter pressing down on him until he could barely breathe!

He couldn't help but roll his eyes and slapped Jiangnan on the back, beating a drum to signal!

(●・ˇ~ˇ・) "What the hell are you sighing about? Don't you know that sighing makes your luck run away?"

"Cheer up! There's no obstacle you can't overcome. In life, besides life and death, everything else is just a scratch~"

"The World Will is on your side, you know! And besides, I'm here too! You're practically the Child of Destiny, alright?"

"Throughout the entire Starry Sky, there aren't more than five people who can beat you! You're already standing at the peak, so why are you still frowning?"

"Smile! Smile for me! Or I'll tickle you, you hear me!"

As he spoke, he suddenly grabbed Jiangnan's neck, made a fist, and used his knuckles to scrape wildly across Jiangnan's ribs!

Jiangnan's eyes widened, and he let out a loud cackling laugh, flailing his hands and feet wildly, struggling nonstop!

˚‧º·(˚˃̣̣̥᷄ꇴ˂̣̣̥᷅)‧º·˚ "Ahahahaha~ Stop... stop tickling me! I'm not unhappy anymore, I'm fine! If you keep tickling me, I'll self-destruct, you hear! Hahaha~"

Black God grinned slyly. This man's weakness was really easy to find!

Once upon a time, when he was unhappy, Jiangnan tried to make him laugh!

And now that Jiangnan was unhappy, it was his turn to make Jiangnan laugh!

Good brothers should support each other, right?

Releasing Jiangnan, Black God gave him a shove!

"Go on... You haven't been back to see them since you returned, have you? Over these past few months, Snow Girl and the others have been worried about you..."

Jiangnan was stunned for a moment, then grinned: "Alright... I'll go back and take a look~"

With that, he took a step and disappeared!

Wang Youzhi stretched hard, then his expression gradually turned serious!

If Jiang Fan was determined to let the Black Hole Final Jet happen, this hurdle wouldn't be easy to get through!

If it were really so easy to stop, why would the three-dimensional Starry Sky Will need to save itself?

Whether or not Xun Zu's blade was hanging over them, Jiang Fan would still do it. Would the things he wanted to do remain unchanged?

Where would the future ultimately lead?

Even the will of the three-dimensional Starry Sky that Black God deduced couldn't clearly see the path forward!

"I need to go inform Yang Jian. This matter with Jiang Fan is quite troublesome..."

...

Zhong Yingxue and the others were currently cultivating in the Star Sea Source Flow Universal Array within the Milky Way Star Domain!

Humanity's technological infrastructure capabilities had already become quite formidable!

Even several galaxy-level Source Flow Universal Arrays had been built!

These were meant for Star Devourer-level experts, so one could imagine how terrifying their effects were!

Unfortunately, Jiangnan couldn't distribute his Realm Source Energy to others!

Given their life levels, they simply couldn't bear the Realm Source Energy...

And on the way to the Milky Way Star Domain, Jiangnan was still thinking about how to stabilize reality!

The root of the problem lay with the system!

Jiangnan unconsciously began checking the system!

And when he did, he was shocked!

The usually unchanging system had actually changed!

The Lucky Ten-Draw had disappeared!

There wasn't even an option to draw anymore!

The System Shop could still be used freely, and items in the System Inventory could be taken out and stored normally!

The System Space was also functioning normally!

You see, ever since the system first appeared, it had basically never changed, let alone upgraded!

This was the first time the system had undergone such a major change!

Although the Lucky Ten-Draw had disappeared!

A progress bar with no displayed value had appeared on the system interface!

Over this period, Jiangnan had accumulated who knows how much resentment value, more than he could ever use!

The total resentment value had reached an astronomical number!

And all of this resentment value had been poured into the progress bar!

Looking at the progress, it was probably about a thousandth of the way, just a tiny little sliver!

Jiangnan even suspected it hadn't moved at all!

▇=͟͟͞͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞=͟͟͞|...

Jiangnan was stunned!

"Baby, what does this mean?"

"Can I never draw again? And what the hell is this progress bar?"

He thought Baby still wouldn't respond to him!

But unexpectedly, system text appeared in his mind!

[Detected that the host is awesome! Baby has performed a system upgrade and closed the Ten-Draw lottery system!]

[Activating Progress Bar Loading Mode! As long as enough resentment value is collected to fill the progress bar...]

[You can unlock a final grand gift package that Baby has prepared for the host!]

[Whether to take out or use the items in the final grand gift package is entirely up to the host to decide~]

[Happy? Excited? Nice? Praise me! Hurry and praise me~]

[(˵¯͒〰¯͒˵)]

Jiangnan was dumbfounded. This was the first time since this period that the system Baby had spoken to him this much!

In a daze, Jiangnan even felt like he had returned to the past!

What the hell was "the host is awesome"? This thing could detect that?

I've always been awesome, okay?

But with so many things weighing on him, Jiangnan really couldn't be happy!

He even less understood why the system Baby had suddenly pulled out a final grand gift package during such a sensitive time!

In fact, Jiangnan was already among the top-tier experts standing at the peak of the Starry Sky!

The help from system items wasn't that significant to him anymore!

But this change in the system made one ponder!

(。・ˇ_ˇ・。:) "Praise praise~ What's in the final grand gift package? Is it something that can change the current situation, fill the node? Or something else?"

But that wasn't right?

The final grand gift package couldn't possibly contain another set of Vendor Cloth or Small Stool, could it?

I send myself?

And the wording "whether to take out or use" was quite meaningful...

[(◦`~´◦) Hmph~ Half-hearted! Ptooey~]

[The contents of the final grand gift package... the host will know after filling the progress bar...]

Jiangnan's brow furrowed even deeper. Opening a blind box?

And what exactly did this progress bar represent?

Could it be not so simple? Could it be a countdown to the collapse node?

Jiangnan couldn't guess anything by guessing here!

He couldn't help but sigh, looking up at the Starry Sky!

"Baby, is there really nothing you want to tell me? Reality is about to collapse..."

"Everything before me... is like a dream! If this really is a dream, then I never want to wake up. I don't want this dream to shatter!"

"Even if it's a dream! I will make this dream into real reality!"

"Who... are you?"

[...]

[After opening the final grand gift package, everything will become clear. At that time... I will tell the host everything they want to know!]

Jiangnan gazed bleakly at the Starry Sky, his eyes full of confusion. Wait until then to tell him?

That was fine too...

Lost in thought, Jiangnan unconsciously let out another sigh!

[Remember... be happy~]

[Good...]

Jiangnan was stunned. How could he possibly be happy under these circumstances?

He rubbed his cheeks!

He didn't know if this change in the system was good or bad!

The unfinished progress bar always gave Jiangnan an uneasy feeling...

If it really was a countdown to the collapse node, it might not be a good thing to rush to fill it!

But the one thing Jiangnan could be sure of was that Baby must have his best interests at heart!

Baby would never set him up!

But Jiangnan's mind was a mess now, like paste. For the first time, Jiangnan felt so lost about the future!

So he decided to put this progress bar matter aside for now!

Sort everything out, determine his next moves, and then consider whether to fill the progress bar!

In the blink of an eye, Jiangnan had arrived before the galaxy-level Source Flow Universal Array!

Taking a few deep breaths, he squeezed a few different styles of smiles onto his face!

After practicing a few times, Jiangnan's smile became radiant!

With one step, he was inside the universal array space!

Zhong Yingxue, Wu Liang, and the others were cultivating!

Jiangnan waved his little hand:

(͡°ꇴ͡°)✧ "Yo~ Your Jiangnan Gege is back~ Where's my big Lang Mie? I've come to return those kisses~ Strawberry flavor, okay?"
