Chapter 170: Divinity
Whoosh!
Space shattered like a soap bubble.
A colossal Basher, carrying a pitch-black stele, crushed the grand library made of white jade into ruins.
Above the wreckage, two figures, akin to gods and demons, stood off against each other.
At this moment, the Basher's eyes shone with a lunar radiance as it gazed upon the pristine moon hanging in the sky. As if drawing upon some mysterious power, it went berserk, suddenly whipping its head.
Crack!
Crack!
The black stele on its back, already covered in cracks, completely shattered!
Countless black shards scattered in all directions!
An odd aura was erupting and quickly dissipating...
"The Wanling Martial Arts..."
Old Meng's face turned pale as he witnessed this scene, and a trickle of crimson flowed from the corner of his mouth. "Your goal... is to destroy the original Wanling Martial Arts?"
"Indeed!"
The 'Ancient Sword Connection' had a scorching sun mark on his forehead, and a strange smile appeared on his face. "As long as I can destroy the Wanling Martial Arts here, even if this body perishes, it will be worth it..."
Old Meng frowned, knowing that the principal and the others were probably delayed.
Even so, trying to stop a Martial God and several Martial Saints on Blue Planet would undoubtedly incur a heavy price.
And they would be arriving soon!
He never imagined that he would still be unable to protect the Wanling Catalogue!
"Wu Changsheng is indeed a prodigious talent... and the Wanling Martial Arts is extraordinarily profound. It's just a pity that he is already dead."
A strange aura emanated from the mark on 'Ancient Sword Connection's' forehead.
This aura transformed into an invisible door in mid-air, seemingly connecting this place to another unknown space.
"The Wanling Catalogue contains the Wanling Martial Arts, and the Moon God also has the Wanling Martial Arts... If the Wanling Martial Arts in the Wanling Catalogue is shattered and destroyed, the Wanling Martial Arts in the Moon God should also be destroyed!"
From that distant space, a chanting voice echoed, seemingly using the 'connection' through the door, taking advantage of the destruction of the Wanling Catalogue on this side to influence the other.
This seemed impossible, but within the authority of the Outer Domain Evil God, there was an effect akin to 'word becoming law'.
Although the prerequisite was harsh, the master of the Door School had fulfilled it!
"Chaos Association? Entropy Lord?"
"Through the connection of the door, coupled with finding loopholes... Not good!"
Old Meng's expression changed drastically, and he looked up, only to see the night sky and the bright moon.
"Roar!"
Bathed in the moonlight, the Basher, now free from the stele, roared towards the sky.
This offspring of the Evil God had actually died long ago, but for the offspring of Evil Gods, their formidable vitality might not diminish for tens of thousands of years.
The 'Moon God', the Outer Domain Evil God worshiped by the Moon Worshipping Sect, also had the alias 'Taiyin', the ruler of Yin energy.
Through this full moon, it awakened the remains of the Basher, turning it into a zombie-like existence.
The 'zombie' transformed from the offspring of the Evil God was extraordinarily terrifying, not something an ordinary Martial Saint could handle.
But what was even more terrifying at this moment was not this zombie-like offspring of the Evil God, but the sky!
Moon God!
From here, overlooking Blue Planet, the view was breathtaking.
"What's happening on Blue Planet? Communications have been cut off..."
"Look... There's an explosion!"
Many tourists, filled with anticipation for Blue Planet, had just disembarked from the spaceship when they encountered an incredible scene.
On Blue Planet, there were visible explosions and flames!
"My God... Is this still Blue Planet?"
An elderly professor nearly had a heart attack at the sight and fainted.
"Attention, a curfew is now in effect!"
Before the tourists could panic, two rows of soldiers rushed out to maintain order.
As the crowd was gradually calmed... suddenly!
The entire Moon God started to shake!
The metal alloy floor twisted and cracked... Silver light, like mercury, gushed out from the cracks.
"What's happening...?"
Already frazzled from the battles in the hyperspace dimension, Wu Tie's expression changed as he flew into space and witnessed the Moon God disintegrating.
"Well, that's it... No need to worry about how to write the previous report, or any punishment for that matter..."
Wu Tie tore open his military uniform, revealing his semi-mechanized body. "Old Wu will likely sacrifice myself here today, but even so... Moon God! You won't be able to come out!"
...
At this moment, the residents of Blue Planet witnessed an incredible sight!
The Moon God, visible during the day, resembled a giant egg in the sky, cracking open.
An indescribable yet infinitely wonderful existence was about to reveal its extraordinary form.
Just then, a rift opened in the void, and a youth with short black hair and a knife emerged from the spatial fissure.
"Moon God, Taiyin... Are they about to break free?"
The short-haired young man gripped his broken sword and suddenly slashed at the sky!
A massive rift tore through the heavens, resembling a grand canyon or the ever-hungry maw of a beast. It devoured the fragments of the Moon God and the corruption of the Outer Domain Evil God, sealing them beyond...
...
Moments earlier.
The terrifying corruption of the Evil God's offspring swept through like a tidal wave.
Fang Xing's figure flashed, appearing beside Yin Huanzhen as he pulled him up.
After all, they were classmates who had gotten along fairly well before, and things hadn't escalated to the point of no return. It was only right to help a fellow classmate.
"Thanks... Trouble you... Send me... to the gym..."
Yin Huanzhen's speech was disjointed, clearly indicating the immense mental pressure inflicted by the Evil God's offspring.
But Fang Xing didn't have time to reply.
Golden light erupted from his body as he pushed the Dragon Elephant Vajra Unbreakable Divine Power to its limit.
Boom!
Accompanied by a loud rumble, countless black steles transformed into flying boulders!
One of them, the size of a house, hurtled straight toward Fang Xing.
He extended his right hand and pushed forward!
Rumble!
The ground trembled and cracked...
The pitch-black stone, resembling a fake mountain, was caught by Fang Xing with one hand and slammed onto the ground, creating a deep indentation.
"So strong..."
Yin Huanzhen, who was behind him, was stunned. The boulder had not only fallen with immense force but also carried a terrifying martial will.
Even as an external manifestation warrior, he knew he wouldn't have been able to withstand it.
But Fang Xing did it with ease. Indeed, he was once the top-ranked fighter on the battle board.
However, Fang Xing had no time to dwell on these thoughts as he stared at the black stone.
It was evidently a part of the Wanling Catalogue, and a section closer to the base of the stele.
Just by touching it, wave after wave of terrifying willpower surged into his mind like mighty rivers.
This was no ordinary insight but a direct infusion!
It was like force-feeding knowledge, regardless of the recipient's capacity!
The martial will within the Wanling Catalogue seemed to sense its impending destruction and frantically transferred itself to Fang Xing.
"Damn it!"
Fang Xing broke into a cold sweat, and even the mental fortitude of the Vajra Sarira couldn't withstand it.
'No other choice!'
He silently chanted the 'Mahavairocana Buddha Mantra' in his mind, and in his sea of consciousness, a crimson Mahavairocana rose like a furnace, melting away the influx of martial will!
On the Attribute Panel, the progress bar representing the 'Mahavairocana Buddha Mantra' surged once more!
80%!
90%!
100%!
As countless martial arts were dissolved, a profound martial art gradually took shape in Fang Xing's mind—the 'Mahavairocana Buddha Palm'!
...
Swish!
A flash of sword light.
The cultivation clone, with strength comparable to the Golden Core realm, unleashed a sword escape technique from the 《Great Freedom Golden Sword Manual》. The speed of this sword escape was unmatched, matching the all-out burst of a Vajra realm warrior.
Vajra realm warriors were relatively safe as long as they avoided the center of the battlefield.
And at that moment, Fang Xing, upon reaching the classroom area, finally found his target.
Clang!
Wei Shentong's body was filled with golden light, and his Great Vajra realm cultivation was unconcealed as he fought against several Evil God believers.
His physique was exceptionally robust, and even when struck by some bizarre Evil God weapons, his defenses remained intact.
'This Wei Shentong... He's deliberately stalling, fighting these Golden Core-level Evil God believers to avoid joining the main battle? What a sly old fox!'
Fang Xing snorted inwardly and snapped his fingers.
A sudden sword cry rang out, and countless sword auras converged, splitting into sword lights that caught the falling stele fragments from all directions.
These were all valuable items, and Fang Xing immediately stored them in his ring.
"Hmm?"
He swept his spiritual sense, and a sword aura swept through, bringing back a palm-sized black crystal.
This object was mixed among the broken steles and seemed to be some sort of core.
Fang Xing held it in his hand and suddenly felt a chill.
He subconsciously moved his spiritual sense, storing the crystal in his ring.
Whoosh!
In the darkness, two bizarre giant birds with white bones flew swiftly, carrying two Moon Worshipping Sect believers.
This group of Evil God believers was easily recognizable—they all had crescent-shaped tattoos on their cheeks.
Seeing Fang Xing taking the black crystal, their expressions changed, and they shouted, "Leave it here!"
'Looks like I picked up something important!'
Fang Xing's eyes narrowed, and he activated the sword escape technique, rushing toward Wei Shentong, "Teacher, save me!"
"Who the hell is your teacher?!"
Wei Shentong was startled by the sudden appearance of an unfamiliar Evil God believer rushing toward him.
After all, he was a faculty member and had a good memory. He had gone through the information of all the students at Blue Star University.
Natural was 100% sure that he didn't have this student!
The speed of the Sword Escape technique was unparalleled.
In an instant, Fang Xing appeared beside Wei Shentong, his sword and body moving as one as he unleashed a fierce and unstoppable sword intent, employing the 'Great Freedom Golden Sword Manual'!
In just a moment, he slashed at Wei Shentong's chest!
'So strong!' Fang Xing exclaimed inwardly as his sword clashed with Wei Shentong's defense. He knew that he couldn't kill him.
"I'm comparable to a True Nascent Soul cultivator, my sword intent is almost perfected, and I have an exceptional flying sword... Theoretically, a Golden Core cultivator would undoubtedly die to my sword strike..."
'But the Great Vajra realm is truly formidable!'
'His physique and defense... It's comparable to the legendary quasi-fourth-rank body cultivator from the cultivation world?'
'A two-to-three turn Golden Body can withstand low-grade spiritual treasures, and a four-to-six turn should be able to withstand mid-grade ones... Wei Shentong has a nine-turn Golden Body in the Great Vajra realm; he might indeed be a quasi-fourth-rank body cultivator!'
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Fang Xing saw the malicious smile on Wei Shentong's face.
"I've been waiting for you, knowing you didn't come with good intentions," Wei Shentong said.
Wei Shentong's martial will surged, pushing back the other Evil God believers. His hands, like wheels, descended with tremendous force.
As his palms flipped, the world seemed to turn upside down, and a distorting force deflected Fang Xing's flying sword. Immediately after, Wei Shentong tried to control Fang Xing's life force!
Fortunately, Fang Xing's cultivation clone had prepared for such an eventuality. A talisman instantly ignited.
What Wei Shentong grabbed turned out to be a charred talisman.
Fang Xing, on the other hand, slashed into the ground with his sword and instantly disappeared without a trace.
The surrounding Evil God believers who had been attacking Wei Shentong glared at each other and resumed their assault...
Wei Shentong felt frustrated and thought to himself, "Who the hell is that guy? How is he unaffected by my martial will? And how is he so fast? Damn it!"
If it weren't for these pesky ants bothering him, how could he have failed to catch that person? Wei Shentong's gaze at the believers turned murderous.
...
Above the Grand Library, Gu Jiantong stood on top of Basher's head, his hands clasped behind his back as he looked at Old Meng in the distance. "Your dharma form is already damaged... Your will has weakened... You're far from the 'Golden Martial Saint' you once were."
"Since that's the case, why doesn't your true body come out? Let's see if you can take the wrath of my ancestors for eighteen generations!" Old Meng cursed.
"Never mind..."
'Gu Jiantong' gazed at the moon and suddenly smiled. "The Moon God is breaking free, and Taiyin is returning to its rightful place... If you can survive what's coming, we can discuss other matters."
He formed a peculiar mudra with his thumbs and index fingers touching and placed it on his forehead.
The bloody sun mark on his forehead shone brilliantly!
Then, in the moonlight, the pristine white moon gradually took on a bloody hue, and slowly, an eye opened!
It was the Eye of the Moon God!
This terrifying gaze belonged to the body of a domain-exterior evil god!
Even a single glance carried an overwhelming 'weight' that could crush a martial artist!
What was even more frightening was that after scanning the area, the eye slowly closed.
With the opening and closing of the Moon God's eye, a terrifying darkness descended!
Within the darkness, there seemed to be indescribable horrors, their bloody mouths wide open, ready to devour everything!
"Ah!"
As darkness enveloped him, Wei Shentong screamed. Even with his Great Vajra body, he couldn't withstand this darkness and was severely injured in an instant.
Wounds appeared all over his body, some large and some small, with teeth marks along the edges.
It was as if countless beings had taken bites out of him!
Even a true demonic creature would struggle to bite through the defense of a nine-turn Golden Body Great Vajra cultivator. Yet, under the Moon God's candle dragon-like ability, he was incredibly fragile.
...
Darkness fell!
Fang Xing's true body felt his brow twitching uncontrollably, and even the Vajra Sarira emitted a strained whine.
Ever since the 'Eye of the Moon God' appeared, he had a bad feeling about what was to come.
However, he was now well-prepared. In his sea of consciousness, the crimson Mahavairocana blazed like a furnace, spreading its light to every corner of his being.
On the Attribute Panel, the progress bar representing the 'Mahavairocana Buddha Mantra' surged once more, breaking through to the 'Master' level!
Amidst the darkness, a radiant light shone, illuminating the surroundings.
Fang Xing's head felt like it was about to explode as streams of unknown information flooded his mind:
'The Mahavairocana Buddha Mantra... Each level has its unique attributes.'
'Previously, it exhibited traits like 'Melting Furnace' and 'Empowerment'... But the specialty of the Master-level 'Mahavairocana Buddha Mantra' is 'Condensation of Dharma Nature'?'
'Dharma Nature of the Great Sun?'
'Or perhaps it could be called the 'Divine Nature of the Great Sun'?!'
