‘No matter what, I’ll have to die on that day?’
Fang Xingjian gritted his teeth and circulated the Longevity Art, starting to turn his life span into martial will.
Bang!
Almost at the instant he circulated the technique, Fang Xingjian felt a series of thunderous rumbles in his consciousness like violent winds or tornadoes had just pa.s.sed by. It had been a very long time since Fang Xingjian had experienced this sort of feeling.
How powerful was he right now? Moreover, his actual body was in the high-dimensional s.p.a.ce-time, and it would be hard even for a supernova explosion to affect him. At this moment, the conversion of his life span had the feeling of raging gales and rainstorms. It was as if an ordinary person had smashed open a nuclear reactor.
Loud rumbles rang out from void s.p.a.ce, and the s.p.a.ce around Fang Xingjian ignited like flames. Of course, there was no real flames. It was just an appearance produced from extreme spatial distortions.
Simultaneously, Fang Xingjian felt that the Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection’s martial will was rising rapidly like riding on a rocket. In the blink of an eye, it attained a breakthrough to 15,000 points, making up for the amount he lost earlier.
This kind of increment continued on, and Fang Xingjian could sense a seemingly endless and majestic power from the void s.p.a.ce that even the Sattva Sword Technique was no match for.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection’s martial will was like a blaze that had been drizzled with petroleum. The martial art projection’s strength grew rapidly with the life span conversion.
In the blink of an eye, it broke past the martial will threshold of 20,000 points, going on to 21,000… 23,245… 25,443… 29,857…
The great feeling of exhilaration from the rapid growth of his strength was something that Fang Xingjian had never felt before. He felt that even if he sent his thoughts sweeping out slightly, he would be able to annihilate Miracle World entirely.
The even more terrifying thing was that his martial will was still continuing to grow.
41,244…
56,788…
68,228…
79,765…
100,000!
An explosive
boom
burst out! As Fang Xingjian’s martial will broke through 100,000 points, the surrounding s.p.a.ce was shattered, turning into a stretch of absolute darkness that spread out rapidly in all directions.
He had not performed any kind of attack, utilized any kind of martial technique, any strength, or any remarkable skills.
The 100,000 points martial will had shattered s.p.a.ce just with its existence. He had done something that no one in the entire course of Miracle World’s history had ever done.
This was not just ordinary shattering. After the s.p.a.ce shattered, it did not recover by itself.
It was as if a huge hammer had smashed through a building’s floor. If the hammer was not removed, there was no way of fixing the floor.
This was how things were. It was as if as long as Fang Xingjian’s martial will with 100,000 points was present, there was no way that the s.p.a.ce would recover.
As he watched the s.p.a.ce shatter and the dimension gradually disappear, the darkness from the shattered s.p.a.ce spread out rapidly. Everything that was dragged into it was plunged into zero-dimensional s.p.a.ce, like an initial singularity before the Big Bang.
If the shattering of s.p.a.ce continued to spread out, the entire universe would probably be plunged down back to the zero-dimensional s.p.a.ce, returning to the state before the Big Bang.
However, Fang Xingjian quickly reacted. He first stopped the Longevity Art’s life span conversion and then continued to work hard to restrain the influence from his martial will.
‘This can’t do… The existence of a power of this degree itself is annihilative. It’s useless to just restrain it.’
Thinking of this, Fang Xingjian immediately transmitted the Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection’s martial will back into the high-dimensional Sword Realm. He reduced the Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection’s martial will to 90,000 points at one go.
After his series of actions, the shattered s.p.a.ce stopped expanding and started to recover.
Looking as the s.p.a.ce regenerated, Fang Xingjian let out a breath. As he did that, the Crown Princess, Ulpian, and the Silver Mage King appeared before him concurrently. Clearly, they had all sensed the abnormality from earlier.
“What happened?!” The Crown Princess shouted, “I sensed an intense feeling of danger through my Sudden Inspiration earlier… That extremely uneasy feeling was everywhere. It’s as if… as if…”
“As if even the heavens were going to collapse and that the entire world was going to be annihilated,” the Silver Mage King continued. “Fang Xingjian, what did you do?”
Ulpian also looked at Fang Xingjian, as if waiting for his reply.
Fang Xingjian fell silent for a moment before saying, “I’m cultivating a martial technique and because I’m not very familiar with it, I accidentally shattered a part of s.p.a.ce. Don’t worry, this won’t happen in the future.”
Hearing this, the other three’s countenances changed. Even if they wished to continue asking, if Fang Xingjian was unwilling to share, there was nothing they could do.
Ulpian and the Silver Mage King left in succession, with only the Crown Princess staying behind. She looked at Fang Xingjian and then transmitted a message directly into Fang Xingjian’s mind, “You… performed the Longevity Art earlier?”
Fang Xingjian threw a glance at her and did not hide anything. He nodded, saying, “It’s true that I converted a part of my life span into strength.”
The Crown Princess found this strange. Although she sensed that the other party did not lie, it felt as if something had been left out.
After sending off the Crown Princess and the others, Fang Xingjian continued to cultivate the Longevity Art. However, this time around, he carefully controlled the extent of the conversion, strengthening all of his martial art projections’ martial will to 90,000 points.
A martial will of 90,000 points was almost the strength limit that Fang Xingjian could control at his current realm. If he continued to increase them, he would only be able to control the powers, as well as attack and defend in a rough manner. It might even cause the horrifying danger of s.p.a.ce shattering and for the world to return to zero.
Sensing the extremely overwhelming powers in the Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection, Fang Xingjian’s feelings about it were very complicated.
‘I guess this power growth should be from the demonic G.o.ds?’
Fang Xingjian could sense that, before the time for the end of his life span was up, it was actually unlimited. Before the five year period was up, no matter what he did, he would neither be able to increase nor shorten his life span. It was very likely that no matter what torment and agony he was put through or what risks he were to take, he would not die.
‘Everything is influenced by the demonic G.o.d’s will.’
Compared to this power that could do anything and existed everywhere, how could this 90,000 point martial will possibly mean anything?
Fang Xingjian’s eyes narrowed. All the signs showed that the hopes of him living past the five-year mark was extremely low.
‘Since that’s the case, I’ll have to make early preparations.’
At the thought of this, he once again returned to the Imperial Capital with a flash. Although he was unwilling to die and was even fearful of death, Fang Xingjian was also calm enough to face it.
Since that was the case, he would have to make some preparations. If he really were to die after over four months, then the influences under him would need to be prepared for contingencies. He had to make sure that other people would not be able to benefit from this easily.
Furthermore, other than this, Fang Xingjian also wished to leave behind a few more options in preparation for the future.
