In the arsenal outside the Divine Capital, Zhao Yinglan and the others watched the slightly distorted atmosphere while wearing shocked expressions.
“When did these things happen?”
Eunuch Wang said, “Not long after His Majesty disappeared, an abnormality took place here, with the arsenal at the center. The space within a range of 10 lis were all filled up by layers of Gang Qis, and the effects of these Gang Qis...”
Eunuch Wang tapped on the Gang Qi layer lightly, and as a crackling explosion sound rang out, his finger was deflected.
“All attacks and even contact would be reflected. The limits are unknown.”
Hearing Eunuch Wang’s words, Zhao Yinglan’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Don’t act recklessly for now. Call the Sharp Swords troop over. His Majesty must have his plans, and we only need to guard over this place and be ready to act upon his commands at any moment.”
Therefore, over the next few days, the imperial court’s army started to station here, sealing up all of the space within ten lis away from the arsenal. There would also be 2,000 or more members of the Sharp Swords troop constantly stationed here at all times.
Zhao Yinglan also guarded this place day and night personally, acting like a loyal subject.
There was nothing that could be kept a secret forever in this world. As the duration of Fang Xingjian’s disappearance kept on increasing, all sorts of rumors started to spread.
With the Three Mountains Four Peaks adding fuel to flames, there was even news that the Emperor was suffering from serious injuries and would not have long to live.
The three Princes in the south seemed to feel elated. It was said that on the night they received the news, Prince Ding set up a feast to treat his subjects and generals, making merry amidst wine and music.
However, with the Sharp Swords troop and Universe Knights’ suppression, the situation did not change. It was just that turbulence seethed under the seemingly peaceful imperial court, with countless people waiting for news about that person in the Divine Capital.
...
On the Flying Immortal Mountain, Qian Huang, Ru Zi, Xiao Shen, Fang Tao, Fang Yuan, and Loree sat down together.
Right now, all six of them carried a similar yet different disposition. It was a sign of a Great Dao Realm expert, a unique wave of the world in congruence and all living creatures in abidance.
After about over a year, all six of them had finally reached the Great Dao Realm. Right now, they had reached perfection in their cultivation, and their battle prowess had reached a pinnacle in their lifetime.
“It’s finally... a success.” Killing intent and hatred were mixed in Fang Tao’s eyes. “Now that all of us have reached the Great Dao Realm, there’s no more room for advancement for us on the path of martial arts.
“Even if that young Fang Xuan and that b*tch Marie are both also at the Great Dao Realm, it’s impossible for them to be a match for the joint forces of the six of us.”
During this period of time, they had not just been attaining breakthroughs and firming up their Great Dao Realm cultivation.
In order to be able to stand up to Fang Xuan, they had also trained together with each of them performing their specialties. They jointly developed a means where all six of them would join forces together.
“Let’s make a move,” Fang Yuan said in a vengeful voice. “We’ve been spending great efforts in cultivation for such a long period of time and that young Fang Xuan has been arrogant for so long. Now it’s time to let him know that this world doesn’t belong to him.”
During this period of time, she had still been in contact with her father, Prince Ding. As the Three Mountains Four Peaks holing up all this time, she had faced quite a lot of questioning from her family.
It was finally time for her to break away from the suppression and hold her head up high.
Qian Huang nodded. This person who had once been the number one person in the pugilistic world’s righteous path over the past 100 years now had a hint of the vastness of the Great Dao’s circulation in his eyes. “Then let’s test things out first.”
As they spoke, both Qian Huang and Ru Zi activated their abilities concurrently. In that instant, the skies above the entire Flying Immortal Mountain were filled with lightning and thunder. Different natural phenomena were displayed in the atmosphere due to the intense changes to radiations, heat, and electromagnetic forces.
With this change, the other people present immediately sensed that the Gang Qis in their bodies kept on surging like they were limitless.
Simultaneously, Xiao Shen had made a move. His two hands abruptly shattered, turning into countless mirror-like fragments that connected with the surrounding space.
At the next moment, a black hole that had a diameter of about one meter appeared before the six of them. Colors quickly filled up the black hole, forming a natural scenery of towering mountains and flowing water. To be precise, when one looked down from afar, it appeared as if they were in a mountainous place.
The center of their vision was a stronghold. Fang Yuan immediately recognized that this was the Myriad Mountain Pass which was blocking the path between the southern borders and the central, keeping Prince Ding and the other two princes out.
Ever since an army was sent to be stationed here, Prince Ding and the others had made several attempts to retaliate, but they would always end up in defeat. At present, everyone in the Myriad Mountain Pass thought well of the battle situation, and no one felt that the princes would be able to turn the tables around.
“Those rebels in the south aren’t going to go out to war again, right?” A soldier looked at the mountains in the distance and smacked his lips. “After all, we’re on the side of the heavens’ will.” He turned his head, looked toward his comrade, and asked, “Hmm? Why aren’t you saying a word?”
The other soldier raised his head and looked in the direction of the shattered void space. Frowning, he said, “Look over there. Isn’t it a little strange?”
The Myriad Mountain Pass was now currently bustling with activity, and the countless soldiers stationed there had no idea that an unprecedented disaster was going to take place above them.
“2,000 black-armored warriors, 100,000 resident troops, over 300 Disha Realm experts, and the armored warriors who are comparable to Tiangang Realm experts...” As Prince Ding’s daughter, Fang Yuan knew well of the situation in this stronghold that had been oppressing Prince Ding over the past few months.
“That’ll be it then.” The corners of Fang Yuan’s lips curled up into a cold smile. At the next moment, the 33 Paradises technique was activated at full-power, and a change immediately occurred to the distance of the space across the entire Myriad Mountain Pass.
With the Myriad Mountain Pass at the center, the space within one kilometer in all directions immediately contracted intensely, turning into only one centimeter.
As this was a direct change that had occurred to the distance of the space, they were still connected with the surrounding space. The soldiers stationed in the Myriad Mountain Pass did not sense any changes, and it would not appear as if there were any changes when one looked from the outside.
“Let me.”
At the next instant, a massive punch smashed out toward the space that Xiao Shen had shattered.
The person who punched out was Fang Tao, who had activated his Electromagnetic Drive.
His fist passed through the shattered void space and landed in the sky above the stronghold.
The fist was covered in layers of electricity. Wherever it passed by, colorful glows would flash. They were from the molecules in the air that had been crushed, releasing the atomic energy in void space.
The fist itself had merely crossed a distance of 1,000 lis and was about to land above the stronghold when it instantly became bigger, turning into a huge mountain that was going to encompass the entire stronghold.
As a one-kilometer-space in the stronghold had already become one-centimeter-long, it was now too small for Fang Tao’s fist. When his fist got close to the stronghold, it immediately became a huge mountain that was about to encompass the entire stronghold.
Boom!
Under this punch, layers of air currents came pressing down. Before an actual collision occurred, the entire stronghold had already crumbled into dust. All the molecules and atoms in the atmosphere were crushed by this brute force. Astonishing heat and plasma waves shock waves erupted out explosively and turned into a huge mushroom cloud that soared into the sky, blasting the area within a range of ten lis into a hellish state.
Looking at the hellish scene that was 1,000 lis away through the shattered space, the corners of Fang Tao’s lips curled up into a hint of a savage smile.
“Fang Xuan, this is only the beginning...”
