Chapter 485: Mythic Physique
Chapter 485: Mythic Physique
"Alright, let's do it. I hope you'll keep your promise."
One of the two Profound Ones from the Heart Research Society, the leader, quickly nodded.
Suddenly!
His right hand, like a venomous snake, grasped a pitch-black dagger and ruthlessly stabbed it into the back of his companion!
"You..."
The companion wanted to say something, but his face contorted in intense pain.
The leader released the dagger, and his hand reached directly into the companion's back as if searching for something.
Not long after, he pulled out a crimson-bound secret transmission with faint starlight on its cover and respectfully handed it to Fang Xing.
"The Secret Ritual of Heart Dreams?"
Fang Xing nodded, flipped to the first page, and saw a twisted and agonized face.
Judging from the facial features, it was indeed the person who had just been backstabbed.
However, compared to the dissipated individual, this face appeared even more hideous, with the corners of the mouth slightly stiff and curled upwards...as if mocking something.
[The one who was backstabbed yearned for the appearance of the next one...]
On the title page, a line of text emerged.
Immediately following, there was some information about the Heart Research Society.
"Sir, can I leave now?"
The remaining leader asked anxiously.
"Give me the coordinates of the bazaar, and you can go."
Fang Xing nodded and watched as the Profound One's figure disappeared.
For him at this moment, in this world, there was no distinction between good and evil; only what benefited himself mattered.
"Hagis is truly evil... He chose the quickest way to create a secret transmission."
The girl beside him spoke with a trembling voice, looking at Fang Xing: "You...you wouldn't want to do the same, would you? This is a unique ability of our Heart Path. You can't do it."
"Maybe not before, but now it's possible."
Fang Xing shook his head.
He didn't intend to turn this little girl into a secret transmission.
Instead, he thought of utilizing the wonders of the Heart Path to create a secret transmission of Esoteric Martial Arts and then broadcast it, of course, with empowerment and various disciplinary restrictions included in the secret transmission...
"This method of immediately creating a secret transmission requires sacrificing someone, but it's quite effective."
Fang Xing chatted with the little girl: "Did a rebellion occur in your Heart Research Society?"
"Yes, my father was prepared, but unfortunately, the Gate of Deep Sea suddenly went into a riot, causing many Extraordinary Beings to suffer..."
The little girl's expression soured: "Otherwise...I definitely wouldn't have been tracked down by Hagis and his three accomplices..."
"Gate of Deep Sea?"
Fang Xing knew it was his fault, but he didn't plan to admit it. Instead, he silently pondered the secret transmission of 'Heart' he had just obtained.
In the little girl's eyes, his image suddenly changed.
Then...
Fang Xing unleashed a punch: "Magical Fist!"
The little girl immediately fell into a dazed state, as if trapped in layer upon layer of illusions...
"Heart Division Martial Arts focuses on the mind, making it a form of Mental Martial Arts! Uniting with heaven and earth...a single thought can create myriad transformations."
Fang Xing opened his mouth solemnly: "Tell me everything you know about the Heart Research Society... Also, did you tamper with the coordinates just now?"
"No..."
The little girl's eyes widened: "But my dad is about to arrive. He's an Enlightened One of the Heart Path and has cultivated the Reverse Birth Rite. After using the Cocooned Person ritual, he will undergo Mythic Regression and transform into a Hellhound... His former 'Cocoon' was the skin of a ferocious black dog... Now it has become the Hellhound from myths..."
"Oh? Tell me more."
Fang Xing became interested.
Through the little girl's explanation, he learned that her name was 'Ayu', and she came from an Extraordinary family.
This family had always held power within the Heart Research Society, until recently when a rebellion by their subordinates left them severely weakened.
The Enlightened Ones of the Heart Path would perform the Cocooned Person ritual to create 'Cocoons' suitable for use in the Ether Realm.
Ordinary people could only create some basic auxiliary tools, while more advanced creations included Ayu's wings and the cocoons of the Profound Ones.
Ayu's father had used the skin of a black dog.
It was said that this black dog was incredibly ferocious and had once killed eight of its siblings during a Reverse Moon Ritual, surviving by feeding on their flesh and blood. Later, its skin was peeled off and made into a 'Cocoon'.
In the Ether Realm, it appeared as a black dog the size of a cow, invincible and feared. It had even killed an Enlightened One! After Ayu's father became an Enlightened One, he performed a ritual to mutate the black dog's bloodline, transforming it into a creature from myths—the Hellhound!
This mythical creature's body flowed with thick Ether power and did not dwell in the mortal world, only occasionally intruding into the dreams of mortals, becoming a subject of legends and fear...
The Enlightened Ones of the Heart Path, even when encountering other Immortals in the Ether Realm, remained fearless.
This was a unique trait of the Heart Path.
Other Paths also possessed their own wonders.
For example, on the Machinery Path, even low-level Extraordinary Beings could potentially create high-level mechanical marvels.
Just like Fang Xing, creating a set of mechanical armor is not a problem. Even as a Wanderer, they could challenge the Enlightened Ones and even the Immortals!
As for the Blood Path, it is also extraordinary. Not only can it strengthen the physical body, but it can also entice desires...
"However, all these essences will be absorbed by my Esoteric Martial Arts and transformed into my things, my shape!"
Fang Xing waited for a moment and saw the etheric fluctuations in the distance. In the void, a few strands of pitch-black dog fur appeared.
Then, a Hellhound as large as a fake mountain crawled out. On its body, the dense etheric power formed a layer of verdant green hellfire, blazing fiercely.
"Let her go!"
The Hellhound sniffed and saw Fang Xing and the little girl, then it spoke in a deep male voice.
"Where are you from? Do you understand the rules? I'm a kidnapper... of course, I want the ransom. A Secret Transmission, or else I won't release her..."
Fang Xing let out a cold laugh.
The Hellhound seemed to have some reservations.
Suddenly, it raised its paw and struck the leftmost dog head.
Slap!
A tooth stained with blood fell and transformed into a pale bone tome in mid-air: "Release her!"
"Hey? No wonder you're an Enlightened One..."
Fang Xing quickly checked and patted the little girl's head.
"Ah!"
Ayu let out a shrill scream and ran to the Hellhound.
Seeing this, it seemed like Fang Xing had done something unforgivable to her.
"Damn it!"
The Hellhound exploded with rage.
It roared and spat out fireballs.
These flames were filled with etheric elements and flowed like liquid, possessing both corrosive and burning properties.
If outside, this Hellhound could even entangle a small army.
"What did I do?"
Fang Xing's palm technique soared, and his 'Steam Press Palm' forces struck the verdant fireballs, exploding them in mid-air.
Occasionally, a few green sparks landed on his body, but they were immediately blocked by a layer of grayish-white stone skin, the 'Stone Statue Technique'! The extraordinary practitioners of the Stone Path were silent and restrained... At the same time, the Stone Ether was the most stubborn and unchanging ether, and its effect was extraordinary when defending against the encroachment of other etheric forces!
"What did I do to her?"
Fang Xing smiled slightly: "Probably something similar to what you're about to experience."
He clenched his right hand into a fist.
It was the Heart Division's martial art - the Magical Fist!
As this fist struck out, a great sun appeared behind Fang Xing.
It was vast, spanning kilometers, and the enormous sun and corona almost filled the entire etheric realm.
Seeing the rising sun, all beings in the etheric realm trembled from their souls, and their hearts were filled with only one thought - surrender! Surrender! Surrender!
'Indeed, in the etheric realm, using the power of the Heart Path as a bridge, I can finally manifest a bit of my true nature...'
Fang Xing's heart stirred, and behind him, a great sun rose.
Its grandeur spanned kilometers, and the enormous sun and corona almost filled the entire etheric realm.
Seeing the rising sun, all beings in the etheric realm trembled from their souls, and their hearts were filled with only one thought - surrender! Surrender! Surrender!
'Indeed, in the etheric realm, using the power of the Heart Path as a bridge, I can finally manifest a bit of my true nature...'
Fang Xing's heart stirred, and he had a realization.
"Whimper!"
The little black dog hadn't even opened its eyes and could only whimper.
"Daddy?"
Seeing this scene, Ayu was almost in tears.
But at this moment, she noticed that the little black puppy was whimpering and rubbing against Fang Xing's feet, affectionately nuzzling his shoes.
"Those who are affected by my Magical Fist will..."
Fang Xing picked up the puppy and casually tossed it into Ayu's arms: "Only I can remove this effect..."
"What... what do you want? I'll give you the Secret Transmission... I'll give it to you..."
Ayu looked at her all-powerful father in the etheric realm, now reduced to this state, and her hands and feet turned cold with fear.
"Hmm, I like that you're so cooperative."
Fang Xing, according to the control of Ayu, obtained some information.
It was like a red brick, with the scent of iron and blood on its surface, covered in rust marks.
"I, the Master of Esotericism, will give you two a Secret Transmission of Esotericism."
Fang Xing's figure flickered, and he appeared in front of Ayu, pushing the Secret Transmission into her arms, then pressing his hands on her and the puppy's heads.
True - Head-Patting the Dog!
"This dog looks good, and it has a connection with my Esotericism. I'll bestow upon it the 'Dog Head Vajra Oral Secret' empowerment... And you."
Esoteric martial arts have always been open to both men and women.
Since Fang Xing was preparing to spread his Esoteric martial arts, he naturally treated them equally.
"You... I..."
Ayu's eyes were filled with anxiety, but she had no choice and could only watch as Fang Xing's large hand descended...
