Chapter 339: Rampage
The sun rises in the east!
Countless golden Sanskrit characters filled the cosmic void, like a dazzling river, instantly overwhelming the starry sky.
In the midst of the infinite golden Sanskrit, a figure was forcibly pushed out of the void, facing the palm of 'Ten Thousand Buddhas Facing the Sun'!
"The Ninth Realm? No, this Fang Xing has recovered? Not only has his injuries healed completely, but he can also unleash the power of the Ninth Realm?"
The attacker drew back his hand and struck out with a palm, unleashing the Buddha Palm, but it was the authentic ninth style of the Blue Star University's Buddha Palm—Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage!
In an instant, a golden Buddha emerged from the universe and pressed down on Star River Island, as if to erase the entire island from the planet.
Puff!
Two massive Buddha hands clashed in the void, only to dissipate into nothingness.
On the ocean, a tsunami of magnitude 10 or higher suddenly arose, causing numerous orbital satellites to go into a frenzy of alarms.
The entire White Bird Star, and even the Evil Dragon Star System, was startled by the sudden burst of Ninth Realm energy fluctuations!
"Damn it!"
The attacker's palm, crystalline as jade, struck out with another palm!
A golden sun appeared and swiftly descended upon Fang Xing.
The first style of the Buddha Palm—Buddha Light Illuminating!
Fang Xing lifted his palm, and the Great Sun Divine Essence on his forehead quickly consumed a strand of Great Sun Buddha Nature, igniting the Great Sun Golden Flame, which was the first style of the Great Sun Buddha Palm—Great Sun Illuminating!
Light!
Infinite Light! Infinite Life!
The dazzling brilliance instantly turned the nearby sea area into daylight.
"A draw?"
Fang Xing furrowed his brows slightly, knowing he had lost.
'I can only unleash the power of the Ninth Realm in this extraordinary state, but it's not sustainable...'
'This assassinating Martial God hasn't even shown his full strength and is still trying to conceal his identity... Even the ultimate technique he used is probably not his most proficient one.'
The most obvious evidence was that the opponent had not yet revealed his Soul Body.
For a Martial God, the moment the Soul Body is revealed, their full power is unleashed.
Only when the Soul Body is used to drive the ultimate martial arts, cultivated with the foundation of the Soul Body, can one reach the pinnacle of power.
But once the Soul Body is revealed, concealing one's identity becomes a joke!
'This assassin... is no ordinary newly ascended Martial God.'
'He's a peak Martial God, and might not even be that far behind Ye Liuyun...'
Fang Xing quickly made a judgment in his mind.
Those who ascend to the Martial God rank are typically powerful Martial Saints, with a foundation of the Great Vajra Body, reaching the pinnacle of Martial Dao.
However, there are still differences among Martial Gods.
The weakest are those who have just ascended to the Martial God rank, possessing ordinary Ninth Realm power.
Of course, even the weakest Martial God is more powerful than the strongest Martial Saint.
The gap between the Dharmakaya and the Rupakaya is like that of the earth and the heavens.
Next are those who have perfected the cultivation of various ultimate techniques, reaching the pinnacle of Martial Dao with no further progress.
The highest are those like Ye Liuyun, who have reached the limits of the Martial God realm and can challenge the next realm, almost succeeding as 'Ultimate Archmages'!
Of course, these don't include mecha enhancements.
An Ultimate Archmage possesses the power of the Ninth Realm's limit, but when a Martial God dons their armor, they attain the power of the Tenth Realm, the 'Star-Destroying Rank'!
After two moves, Fang Xing confirmed that this Martial God was not from Blue Star University, and the Buddha Palm was likely a casual pursuit after attaining the Martial God realm.
His true strength was at least that of a peak Martial God.
Fortunately... the opponent was not wearing his armor.
Of course, this was to be expected, as the assassin's attempt to hide their identity indicated that this assassination attempt must not be exposed.
It's not just that the Blue Star Federation lags in space technology, lacking storage equipment capable of holding mechas.
Even if there was... the maintenance and logistics of Martial God mechas require an entire industrial zone and countless technicians.
Not to mention the difficulty of completely erasing backend data, even the wear and tear and subsequent maintenance would inevitably lead to leaks with so many people involved.
Therefore, it's almost impossible for the assassin to use a mecha.
They might not even have a dedicated Martial God mecha.
'If the opponent is an ordinary newly ascended Martial God, with the enhancement of the Great Sun Divine Essence and my extraordinary Law Insight, I might be able to fight...'
Although still a Martial Saint, Fang Xing believed he had surpassed the limits of the Martial Saint realm.
'But he's a peak Martial God, and if I continue fighting, I will surely lose... not to mention defeating him.'
'Although surviving an assassination attempt is considered a success... but what have I been waiting for all these decades?'
'If I don't defeat him, my efforts will be in vain!'
Fang Xing activated the [Xian Wu Zhe] characteristic, quickly condensing the Great Sun Dharmakaya into the Great Sun Golden Embryo.
The Great Sun Golden Embryo chuckled and began summoning its innate spirit treasure.
...
Star Sea Corporation.
Mecha Factory.
"What's going on?"
Both Dr. Wang and Victoria were present, along with many technicians and workers.
They were all startled by the sudden outbreak of the Martial God battle in the night sky and had taken refuge here.
As the exclusive mecha construction site for Fang Xing, the factory's protective measures were top-notch, theoretically capable of withstanding the aftermath of battles up to the Eighth and Ninth Realms.
It was as if ordinary workers had taken refuge behind the company's valuable instruments at the first sign of danger...
"I don't know..."
Dr. Wang stared with wide eyes, a bit dazed. "Boss... has the boss recovered?"
At that moment, a large amount of Solar True Flame scattered, and one of the flames fell towards the factory area.
Sizzle!
In the void, a black giant serpent's Martial Dao Dharmakaya appeared, and it swallowed the flame in one bite.
A graceful figure landed, it was none other than Nan Gong Xue!
"A Martial God is attacking, how is Fang Xing's exclusive mecha doing?"
Nan Gong Xue's eyes flashed with determination, and she immediately looked towards Dr. Wang.
Even if Fang Xing had recovered, he was still only a Martial Saint. To confront a Martial God, the only option was—to don the armor and fight!
"This... The boss's mecha was mostly completed twenty years ago. We've been maintaining it all these years, and it's in great condition... But, the boss has never activated it before..."
Dr. Wang wiped the sweat from his face and stammered in response.
As they spoke, both of them looked through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window at the mecha, which was over a hundred meters tall, resembling a small giant, and was as black and menacing as a demon.
Just then, an unexpected change occurred!
The mecha's eyes suddenly lit up, and a crimson light flashed wildly!
An ear-piercing alarm sounded throughout the factory!
"Black Death God Activated!"
A researcher, seeing the data on his intelligent brain reaching its limits, suddenly shouted.
"How is this possible? The Eternal Crystal Furnace hasn't even been activated yet! Without the main energy source, how can it be activated?"
Dr. Wang subconsciously refuted.
But the next moment!
Rumble!
The factory began to tremble, as if a minor earthquake was occurring. The ground twisted, bulged, and cracked, revealing a hideous crack that resembled a centipede.
Countless cracks converged, and at the center was Fang Xing's exclusive mecha—the 'Black Death God'!
Crack! Crack!
The alloy steel plates that secured the mecha's body emitted a mournful wail, twisting and deforming under the strain. They were torn apart by a black metal giant hand, as if it were tearing through thin paper.
Boom!
The factory's dome was directly lifted, and the Black Death God's alloy restraints exploded, causing it to raise its head towards space and let out a roar!
Roar!
The piercing sound waves spread in all directions, and its back suddenly had a section of pale bone spikes that burst out, tearing through flesh and metal decks, rapidly growing and forming a pair of white bone wings hundreds of meters long!
"Black Death God, it's... it's rampaging!"
Dr. Wang let out a cry of despair.
This was a biological mecha, or rather, a unique negative effect of an evil god mecha. It was absolutely impossible for a purely scientific mecha to behave this way.
Under Nan Gong Xue's eager gaze, the Black Death God gently flapped its white bone wings, and its figure instantly disappeared.
...
In the sky above Star River Island.
"Damn it!"
The Martial God, who had been hiding in the shadows, could no longer contain herself. Behind her, the wind and clouds gathered, and her Martial Dao aura soared into the sky, merging with her soul body to form a soul body!
It was a female warrior goddess clad in golden armor, holding a golden scepter in one hand and a golden round shield in the other!
Beneath the soul body, the assassin turned out to be a female Martial God, with golden, wavy hair and a fit figure, and her eyes were a deep blue.
"You are... Venus, the Martial God of War University!"
Fang Xing's eyes narrowed in recognition as he identified the attacker.
War University was a top-tier university, and among the top-tier universities, it was one of the best.
It wasn't just the three ultra-top-tier universities that could cultivate Nine-Source Star Arts professionals.
The best among the top-tier universities could do it too!
In fact, War University had always harbored ambitions to challenge the ultra-top-tier universities. After the decline of Blue Star University, it aimed to surpass it!
Replacing Blue Star University and becoming an ultra-top-tier university was the dream of most of the students and faculty at War University!
Once Venus's identity was confirmed, Fang Xing immediately thought of many things.
'War University is always enthusiastic about war... and is closely connected to the 'Death Duel Faction,' one of the major factions in the Federation.'
'Is it the pro-war faction targeting Blue Star University, or a specific faction within it?'
The mastermind behind the plot to harm the Blue Star Twin Peaks had gradually come to light.
However, Fang Xing still had many doubts.
'It doesn't matter; once I capture her, everything will become clear.'
Of course, in Venus's eyes, it was the determination to kill Fang Xing!
A layer of light resembling twilight suddenly appeared on her palm, transforming into various weapons that carried the power to annihilate all things, and they descended with a mighty force!
The Martial Dao departments of the three ultra-top-tier universities each had their own supreme martial arts.
For example, Blue Star University's Buddha Palm! Saint Armor University's Nuclear Palm! Nine Sword Academy's Star Annihilating Sword and Sky Rending Blade!
War University, as a top-tier university, originally needed to learn the supreme martial arts of the other three universities. However, they later gathered the strength of numerous Martial Saints and created their own supreme martial art called 'Twilight of the Gods'!
Venus was the first female Martial God to successfully advance by relying on 'Twilight of the Gods'!
She used the 'War Goddess Rupakaya' to unleash 'Twilight of the Gods,' and its might was many times greater than when Fang Xing had simply used the Buddha Palm earlier.
"Fire!"
His Star Palace trembled, and Flame Line Source Energy emerged, transforming into a long red spear.
The spearhead erupted with a ball of fire, and in the heavens, a flame beast suddenly appeared, roaring towards the sky.
Fiery Eighteen Strikes, Sixth Style—Fire God's Wrath!
