Chapter 317: The Attack
Chapter 317: The Attack
After Fang Xing emerged from his cultivation, he naturally contacted his secretary first to check on the progress of the mecha construction.
Then, he had several meals with Nan Gong Xue, ensuring she was well-fed.
Unknowingly, more than ten days had passed.
On this day, Fang Xing checked his attribute panel again:
[Star Martial Seven Absolutes: 1035/1200 (Master Proficiency Level)]
...
[Fire Mystic Arts: 78/100 (Entry Level)]
[Gates of the Multiverse: 2/100]
...
"Indeed, True Force martial arts can also be used as one of the Seven Absolutes, integrating into my martial arts foundation."
Fang Xing's face showed satisfaction.
Although his most powerful martial art was still the Great Sun Buddha Palm, the Star Martial Seven Absolutes, which served as his martial foundation, might surpass the realm of worldly martial arts in the future!
'After all, my One Breath Grand Palm... can barely be considered a worldly martial art, even though it's just one move.'
'Even this Master Proficiency Level seems to have no end. I'll just have to keep grinding... Anyway, when I become a Martial God with an immortal physical body, I'll grind until the end.'
Fang Xing pondered for a moment and then looked at the Fire Mystic Arts.
In the Daxia Universe, once the original secret manuals were lost, it was impossible to continue comprehending the Mystic Arts unless one had already thoroughly understood them.
However, things seemed different in his case.
"Is it that the attribute panel recorded the thirty-six volumes of Fire Mystic Arts that I read, or can the Mystic Arts be understood on one's own, just very difficult?"
Fang Xing leaned towards the second guess because the first person in the Daxia world to comprehend the Fire Mystic Arts must have had no reference manual.
"It's just that without relevant inheritance, comprehending the Fire Mystic Arts will be extremely difficult... But for me, as long as I can get started, I can keep going..."
"Calculating this way, my talent and intuition are absolutely top-notch in the universe..."
'Gray Robe Marquis wanted to take me as his disciple, and it would have been a great deal, but...'
Fang Xing shook his head and looked at the progress of the Gates of the Multiverse: "It increases by about one percent in ten days... At this rate, it seems I'll have to wait three or four years to enter the Daxia Universe again."
Great!
Through the changes in the Gates of the Multiverse, Fang Xing had realized that he could enter the Daxia Universe in the form of a consciousness arrival.
However, the opportunities were limited.
This time, he would have to wait for three years, and the next time might be thirty or three hundred years... or perhaps, there might never be another chance to arrive! Therefore, every opportunity to cross over must be cherished.
"That Gray Robe Marquis only gave me a Mystic Arts trial, without mentioning anything else. What realm is above the True Force Master Proficiency Level?"
Fang Xing sat cross-legged and began to wholeheartedly comprehend the Fire Mystic Arts.
Even if he wanted to learn other Mystic Arts, he had no choice.
After all, he had only entered the Fire Mystic Arts, and for the others that he hadn't entered, he was completely clueless.
Time passed bit by bit...
One year later.
On White Bird Star, a group of Antis Birds spread their wings and soared.
Their wingspans were long, and their white feathers shone as they flapped, creating a hurricane-like effect.
At this moment, the void in front of them suddenly distorted, and a hideous mass of flesh appeared, covered in numerous purple-black meridians writhing like snakes and earthworms.
Boom! Boom!
The distorted, hideous flesh emitted a heart-pounding sound.
The Antis Birds fell from the sky, as if their hearts had shattered.
Countless bird corpses fell, and white feathers rained into the sea like snowflakes.
A shrill alarm sounded throughout the important buildings on the planet.
"Demon God Clan high-energy response detected!"
"Cultivation realm... Seventh Stage... No, it might be breaking through to the Eighth Stage!"
Davis, wearing a mecha, soared into the sky, but almost fell back down: "A Demon God Progeny in the process of gestation? Are the Imaginary Space squads blind? How could they let something this big through? Even though it's the breeding season for Antis Birds, the most frequent time for Demon God attacks, this is too much!"
If it was just a Seventh Stage Demon God Clan member, he could still fight it with his mecha squad.
But an almost Eighth Stage was too much; it was like asking for death.
Fortunately, there was the tallest person on the planet who could still handle the situation.
"Quickly, go and ask for the Federation Martial Saint Fang!"
Davis yelled at his intelligent butler: "Hurry!!!"
...
Star Sea Corporation.
"A gestating Demon God Progeny? I never thought I'd encounter such a grand event... I'm on my way!"
Fang Xing's figure flashed, and he appeared in the sky above Star River Island.
With a Demon God Progeny appearing on White Bird Star, he couldn't possibly escape! Since he had decided to take action, the sooner, the better!
Although he had killed a Pale Progeny before, that progeny hadn't fully matured yet.
If given enough time to develop, the consequences would be unimaginable.
'However... even if it's an almost Eighth Stage Demon God Progeny, it's probably just an Eighth Stage at most... Although I can take it down, I'll have to reveal some of my abilities.'
A flash of fire, and Fang Xing's figure disappeared in an instant.
...
In a certain place.
Countless Antis Bird corpses fell from the sky.
Then, a flash of fire, and Fang Xing's figure appeared.
He wasn't wearing any mecha, only relying on his Martial Saint body, and his speed was astonishing. He had arrived and intercepted the Demon God Progeny before Davis and the others could get there.
"The Fire Mystic Arts not only enhance attacks but also encompass movement and defense, providing an all-around boost!"
"Of course, this requires designing complementary techniques, and the increase in power may not be as significant as the attack boost..."
Fang Xing's pupils burned with two fiery lights, and he saw the Demon God's progeny—or rather, a blood-red mountain of flesh!
On this mountain of flesh, limbs were twisted and contorted, with crimson tentacles writhing like octopi in a frenzied dance.
"It's clearly in the style of the 'Endless Blood Sea'... Blood Flesh Dominion... Which Profound Mystery does this fall under? Life, Blood? Is there such a Profound Mystery? Or... is it a Principle, a Cosmic Principle?"
It must be said that in terms of Profound Mysteries, Fang Xing was a complete novice.
However, facing this massive mountain of flesh, he felt he could easily defeat it!
"After all, I rushed here in my Fire God Body, and my speed is incredible... It hasn't had time to develop, and it's probably only at the level of a weak Martial Saint... As for me, I'm already a strong Martial Saint."
"Forget it, let's finish this quickly."
Fang Xing let out a cold snort, ignoring the pollution emanating from the flesh mountain. Behind him, a large red sun appeared, and within it was a Great Sun Buddha Incarnation with features similar to Fang Xing's. Its hands formed the Sun Wheel Seal!
Streams of Great Sun True Flame gathered around, enveloping the area like a Great Sun Inferno!
"Perfect timing, I've just comprehended a Fire Mystic Art, let's test its might."
As Fang Xing's heart moved, the originally red Great Sun True Flame began to glow with golden specks.
The terrifying temperature soared once more, burning away even the pollution in the void.
The tentacles seemed to be electrocuted, frantically curling inward. If they weren't quick enough to dodge, they turned to ashes!
"Such powerful flames!"
Fang Xing's heart stirred at this sight.
Even the Soul Devouring Demon Fire in his Cultivation Avatar's hand seemed to pale in comparison to this power!
"What's this called? An upgraded version of the Great Sun True Flame—Sun Golden Flame?"
He smiled slightly, raising a single palm.
The [Immortal Warrior] characteristic activated, and the force within his body merged with his Qi and blood, flowing harmoniously.
A golden flame erupted, transforming into a golden flame giant hand that slammed down towards the mountain of flesh and blood, executing the One Breath Grand Palm!
Whoosh!
Even before the Sun Golden Flame reached, countless seawater was evaporated, revealing a dry seabed.
"Wuuuu!"
The massive mountain of flesh and blood let out a mournful wail as the golden flame hand pierced through it!
Not only that, but the wounds on its fleshy body were engulfed in golden flames, making it difficult for this Demon God's progeny, known for its regenerative abilities, to heal its injuries.
"After the enhancement of the Fire Mystic Arts, my One Breath Grand Palm is now almost on par with the Great Sun Buddha Palm."
"Moreover, the consumption is similar to before, making it a suitable Eighth Stage regular technique."
Fang Xing gazed at the mountain of flesh and blood, noticing that it was emitting blood mist.
Within the blood mist, a chilling voice echoed.
"The Demon God's progeny's Dominion can influence the surrounding environment..."
"This Demon God's progeny is trying to escape?"
Fang Xing's Martial Will surged, instantly piercing through the mist.
In that brief moment, the once-dry seabed was now covered in a layer of blood-red flesh carpet.
Countless crimson flesh chunks writhed, thirsting for blood...
A layer of hazy incantation sounded directly in Fang Xing's ear, but he ignored it.
"Sky Veil Palm!"
He pressed down with his palm, and the Sun Golden Flame exploded, not only burning the blood mist but also severely damaging the flesh mountain!
Boom!
Fang Xing's body transformed into a flash of fire, allowing blood-colored flying blades to pass through him without causing any harm. He arrived in front of the flesh progeny, spreading his five fingers, and then slowly closing them, "Five Finger Mountain!"
Boom!
A Five Elements Giant Mountain seemed to appear in the void, crashing down and suppressing the flesh progeny's body.
Fang Xing's Martial Will transformed into a Mystic Beast, directly charging into it.
"Explode!"
The Fire Mystic Arts-enhanced attack detonated.
The flesh progeny's body convulsed violently, and then it became still, its tentacles drooping powerlessly.
"Dead?"
"Indeed, without using the Great Sun Buddha Palm, I can now kill a Demon God's progeny with my bare hands."
Fang Xing clenched his fist, satisfied with his performance.
At this moment, a group of mechas finally arrived at the battlefield, witnessing the scene with awe.
"Martial Saint Fang? What...?"
Davis took a step forward, his tone becoming more respectful.
Only by witnessing it firsthand could one truly understand the might of a Martial Saint!
"It's taken care of. This flesh progeny arrived just in time, saving me a large amount of mecha resources."
Fang Xing burst into laughter.
This was indeed what he had in mind. Buying enough resources to build a Martial Saint mecha through the black market would be shocking and might make others think he was trying to scam them.
But if the majority of the resources came from his own spoils of war, with only a small portion from the black market, it would be more reasonable...
