Chapter 394: Revenge (Dedicated to Commander He of the Jian Mountain Alliance)
Vic Star System.
Eternal Crystal Mine.
Cyan sword lights filled the universe, covering the sky and the earth.
Behind Heng Dong, the sword-shaped wings kept spinning and evolving, producing countless hyper-alloy steel sword feathers as if controlled by a single consciousness, cutting through space and coordinating seamlessly.
A loud screech echoed as countless cyan lights converged, resembling an eagle, suddenly letting out a long cry, flapping its wings, and diving down!
The mine was filled with a dense crimson network.
At the center of the network stood a giant engulfed in flames—the Flame Luo King, Dororo, guarding this place!
"Humans!" Dororo roared, and within his body, it was as if an entire military camp emerged, with countless Flame Luo warriors gathering and forming battle arrays.
The array, consisting of over a million Flame Luo warriors of professional-level strength, exuded a power that could make even a Martial Deity tremble.
Countless crimson mists appeared, gathering on Dororo's 20-meter-tall body and transforming into a set of crimson armor.
The helmet, chestplate, bracers, gloves, skirt armor, and greaves were all present, adorned with intricate and ancient patterns.
Countless sword feathers, slicing through the void, landed on the crimson armor, yet they disintegrated upon impact.
"This... is a spatial anomaly?" Heng Dong immediately realized the trouble he was in.
Although he had managed to deal a heavy blow to Dororo's legion through a surprise attack, this Flame Luo King was unique, possessing a spatial anomaly that allowed him to build an entire military camp within his body.
The incredibly rare occurrence left Heng Dong speechless.
At that moment, bad news poured in through the military communicator.
'With this situation... even Turing's psychic control slaves seem to have malfunctioned...'
Heng Dong felt the urge to retreat.
As a Tenth Stage Mech Engineer, he possessed elite power within the Tenth Stage.
Dororo, the Flame Luo King, was equivalent to a Tenth Stage professional, and with the support of the battle array, he was an unparalleled power in the Tenth Stage.
If not for the Flame Luo battle array's slight shortcomings, making it difficult to match a Tenth Stage professional, Heng Dong might have met his end here today!
"This won't do... Retreat!"
Heng Dong controlled his mecha and flew backward.
Suddenly, a blood maze appeared in the universe, enveloping him.
"You want to leave without asking Dororo's permission?" Dororo roared, looking up at the sky. "I'll tear off your wings and hang them in my hall!"
In his hand, a battle spear appeared, seemingly formed entirely from blood, and at its tip, the void continued to shatter...
...
"Hmm? A request for aid?!"
Fang Xing stepped on Tu Ya's head and activated the military communicator, only to be surprised.
"Apart from Duan Hai Wushen's team, the others have encountered trouble?"
"No, there's me too!"
Although his insider hadn't failed, Tu Ya's strength had caused a major problem, and a slight mistake could lead to total annihilation! This made Fang Xing furious, feeling that the Federation's intelligence department should be held accountable.
Could a Ninth Stage King and a Tenth Stage Emperor be the same?
'If I didn't know that the Federation would never deliberately annihilate the academy's forces, I might even suspect this to be their conspiracy.'
He sent a thread of consciousness through the communicator, entering a virtual conference room.
Xu Sanyang and Fei Wenli were both present, and upon seeing Fang Xing, they breathed a sigh of relief. "Captain... Are you okay?" Fei Wenli asked with concern.
"I'm fine. What about the other teams?" Fang Xing inquired.
"Commander Heng Dong is engaged in a fierce battle with the Flame Luo King... Duan Hai Wushen has already provided support to Gaia's team... As for us, if we're in good shape, it's best to move towards 'Caro Star' and coordinate with 'Dragoncleave War God'..." Xu Sanyang said, glancing at Fang Xing.
"Since the ambush plan has been exposed, I'm giving the orders!" Fang Xing turned to the two of them. "You two immediately return to the spaceship and prepare for evacuation... As for me, I'll roam around and provide support where I can. If I can't, I'll cross the Flame Luo Galaxy Cluster and return to the human domain."
"What? Cross the galaxy cluster? That's too dangerous," Fei Wenli objected immediately.
Xu Sanyang, on the other hand, fell into deep thought. "Hmm... Now that we've been exposed, our spaceship coordinates might have been discovered, making it a trap... I'd rather take the initiative and advance into the heart of the Flame Luo territory, catching them off guard..."
Although this path was equally dangerous, one wrong move could mean death.
A galaxy cluster is an immense distance, how could it possibly be traversed in a short time? Xu Sanyang was somewhat tempted, mostly because he wanted to keep himself on the side of the Fire Luo Clan.
"This is a military order."
Fang Xing directly issued the order, pressing everyone, "Don't worry about me... I'll act according to the situation."
After hanging up the military communicator, his figure moved, and he immediately flew into space.
After traveling an unknown number of tens of thousands of miles, a mysterious aura emanated from Fang Xing's surroundings.
Crack!
The military communicator and supply belt snapped, scattering in space and being devoured by a void rift.
Then, he hid his figure and burrowed into an ordinary-looking meteorite.
Various Martial Mystery Techniques and Immortal Cultivation methods were displayed one by one, confirming that there were no issues with his surroundings.
The [Immortal Warrior] characteristic was activated, and waves of spiritual power appeared, causing his face and aura to change drastically.
"This Illusionary Technique from the Demonic Nine Strategies is quite useful."
Fang Xing slowly spoke, and even his voice changed.
Then...
His consciousness connected to the Gates of All Worlds, and three seconds later, a flash of silver light appeared.
Fang Xing's figure vanished, reappearing in the Deathgod Island Palace of the Immortal World.
Three seconds later...
Bluesphere Federation.
Inside a slum apartment.
The Cultivation Clone, who had been meditating, opened his eyes and saw Fang Xing's main body standing before him, causing him to smile slightly.
With the help of the Immortal World as a transit, Fang Xing returned to the heart of the Bluesphere Federation in just a few seconds! Isn't this better than any teleportation for escaping?
'This way, I've also exploited the bug of the Gates of All Worlds. After all, when I cross over, I'll appear next to my clone...'
According to the rules of the Gates of All Worlds, if there is no clone in the Immortal World when teleporting, one will automatically appear at the previous spatial coordinates.
If there is a clone, it will naturally appear near the clone.
By figuring out this rule early on, Fang Xing's main body was able to achieve instant transfer.
The price, however, is that he can no longer cross back to the spatial coordinates of the Vic Star System.
After all, he didn't leave a clone there.
'But this is enough... Even Duan Hai can't teleport back, so who would suspect me if I cause trouble in the Bluesphere Federation now?'
A smile appeared on Fang Xing's lips: 'Even better... the Federation is currently deploying a major battle against the Foreign Demon God, and the elite forces won't have time to bother with this side.'
For him, the external battle was just a formality.
M
What's more important now is to settle scores and take revenge! "A decade's sharpening for a single strike, the frost blade awaits its trial. Today, I ask, who has suffered injustice?"
A sword cry emanated from within the Cultivation Clone, who looked towards the Augus Manor.
As the Head of the Gate Sect, he had naturally investigated beforehand.
Uv Augustine, as the Governor, was currently responsible for the defense of Bluesphere.
'Let's not talk about the previous schemes.'
'This mission is extremely unfavorable for the Academy faction, and those Martial Deities might not even return... It's possible that the Augus family and other Surrender factions are secretly making their move!'
'They must be killed!'
This was a plan decided upon beforehand.
Regardless of the frontline battle situation, he would find an excuse to detach from the main force and act in secret! Fang Xing and the Cultivation Clone both made hand seals, and their figures dissipated, then they used Earth Escape Techniques to hide within the earth...
...
Augus Manor.
Uv Augustine had been in a good mood recently.
Especially after receiving the news of the vanguard squad's unfavorable battle.
In the underground wine cellar.
Salin was selecting wine while happily saying, "We should celebrate, brother, your plan is truly..."
"I don't have any plan. Punishing the Fire Luo Clan and seizing the Eternal Crystal Mine were already part of the Federation's plans. I'm just going with the flow."
Uv Augustine, with his green hair, was full of admiration, "If we're talking about plans, it belongs to that person... I even suspect that the previous assassination attempt on Fang Xing was a setup for failure, and they've been guiding things in secret... Of course, this would expose some flaws, inviting attacks. So this period is the most dangerous time for that person."
"So that's why you came back, big brother?"
Sarin Augus suddenly realized, "That's right... If I stayed in the Governor's Mansion, there would be too much surveillance, and many things would become difficult."
Practitioners who have reached the Tenth Stage have privacy privileges.
For example, the Augus Manor would never be monitored by the Omniscient Brain.
"The Federation's top forces have been moving around recently... It seems the plan has begun. I hope it doesn't succeed, or the hatred between humans and the Divine Beings will intensify."
Uv Augustine sighed.
The whereabouts of the first principal of Holy Armor University were easily surveilled, after all, it was a large Mechanoid Planet, and a satellite could easily spot his location.
Uv Augustine's words were even more baffling, and more importantly, he genuinely believed what he was saying.
Not only that, but Salin beside him also wore a determined expression, as if he firmly believed it as well.
Suddenly!
Salin Augustine's expression changed.
He tore open his clothes, revealing a broken screen on his chest that seemed to have appeared there at some point.
This screen seemed embedded in his flesh, originally black, now glowing with radiance like an old computer struggling to start up.
"It's a fragment of a Divine Being!"
Uv Augustine's eyes fixed on the screen: "As expected... constantly interfering with fate, only to be mocked by fate in the end... The Federation has destroyed the Divine Being's main body, but its prior arrangements have come to fruition..."
"No one would have thought that it would place a part of its consciousness on Bluesphere!"
Salin Augustine smiled: "Isn't this what they call ignoring the obvious?"
Just then, the screen displayed static, as if the signal was poor, and suddenly, lines of text appeared:
【Escape!】
【Quickly escape!】
...
"Escape?"
Salin Augustine and Uv Augustine exchanged glances, both feeling a bit perplexed and anxious.
In the next instant, a barrier between reality and illusion isolated the entire Augus Manor from the outside world.
Fang Xing didn't hesitate, unleashing numerous fifth-rank and even near-sixth-rank formation banners and spirit treasures... The formation enveloped the Augus Manor.
Most of these were treasures from the Wuji Pavilion, and among them was even a scroll of space-sealing treasures—the Mountain-River Map!
Under the layers of restrictions, the Augus Manor was isolated from the outside world, but from the outside, it appeared as if nothing had changed.
One could even enter and encounter living people.
But this 'communication' was actually a diversion as they were instantly teleported to another space, their senses deceived, and they encountered numerous illusions...
At the same time, in the real Augus Manor.
Whoosh! Fang Xing's flying sword slashed!
This sword instantly transformed into countless swords, and in terms of speed, it even surpassed the previous 'Great Free Golden Sword Qi'.
Streaks of sword light fell, eradicating all surveillance, cables, and even covert signals...
From the perspective of the Essence Spirit, Fang Xing could see all the 'lines' connecting the Augus Manor to the outside world!
And at that moment, with a single sword strike, these lines were all severed!
After the sword strike, he no longer hesitated. His Essence Spirit's consciousness swept through, and countless Augus Clan members fell like wheat being cut down.
The only ones who could still stand, or even fight back, were the two brothers in the underground wine cellar.
"Hmm? There are still two of them?"
"This Salin Augustine... isn't an ordinary professional. He has a strong Demon God aura!"
"But at this moment, there's no need to hesitate!"
Faster than the heart of a sword cultivator was the sword of a sword cultivator!
As Fang Xing's Cultivation Clone's Essence Spirit activated, the Rusty Sword had already taken the initiative.
Its sword pierced through the void, a Void Flying Sword Technique, teleporting to Salin Augustine's face.
Streaks of silver light converged at the sword tip and then suddenly shattered.
The void shattered!
It was the Void Piercing the Void, an ultimate sword technique that combined the insights of the Space Law and the One Sword Piercing the Void!
As the Cultivation Clone took action, Fang Xing's main body also moved.
His Martial Dao Will was like a blazing sun, extending countless Will Secret Patterns, vast and overwhelming.
At the same time, a terrifying gravity appeared.
The buildings of the Augus Manor were instantly destroyed, and countless bricks and steel ruins floated into the sky, compressed into a small ball by the terrifying gravity.
This was Star Lord level stellar gravity!
Whoosh!
He wore a black robe, his face covered by a black mask.
A black spear appeared in his hand, its tip blazing like a star.
It was Inferno Eighteen Spears—Star as Fire!
In an instant, Fang Xing unleashed his full power!
Boom!
As he attacked, both Fang Xing's main body and Cultivation Clone felt a horrible pollution!
This pollution was formless and intangible, as if it had appeared directly in their minds, and it carried a terrifying assault!
'This isn't some clan or Demon God's offspring.'
'It's the pollution and assault of a Foreign Demon God!'
Fang Xing's killing intent surged: 'The Augus Family isn't part of the Coexistence Faction, they're human traitors! They must be killed!!'
