Chapter 303: Synthesis

In the days which followed, Fang Xingjian and James stayed together for almost twenty-four hours a day, fully spending all their time and effort on sword training.

With James, the best teacher around, Fang Xingjian’s cultivation seemed to have reached his current limits.

In fact, if the people from the Great Western Region were to find out that James was accompanying Fang Xingjian in his sword training everyday, probably 90% or more of the people would be green with envy.

Right now, Fang Xingjian had the enhancement from his four major specialties, namely Genius Swordsmanship, Sword Specialist, Unparalleled Sword Intent – Apex, and Darkness Sword Sense, as well as the strengthening effect of the ether particles with one hundred times the density.

Fang Xingjian also had the world’s best sword arts talent and the guidance of James, who was a level 29 Conferred Knight, the Regional Academy’s Headmaster, and the Great Western Region’s Governor from two generations ago. With these, the improvement rate of Fang Xingjian’s sword arts cultivation increased at a tremendous speed.

Especially since Fang Xingjian had such an outstanding teacher, he was able to relearn the Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash whenever. He could even ask James about whether there were tricks for synthesizing techniques.

Undoubtedly, there were indeed tricks for synthesizing techniques. Other than subjecting the success rate to the ether synchronization rate, it was also possible to extract the essence of two techniques and better control one’s thoughts during the synthesization process in order to increase the success rate slightly.

Within a few days time, Fang Xingjian brought his Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash to the maximum level for a total of five times. He also attempted skill synthesis five times until he finally succeeded in synthesizing the Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash into the Luminous Heaven Soaring Slash.

In the training room, a light sword appeared in Fang Xingjian’s hand. WIth a slash, a scorching heat wave was sent out. Wherever the light sword passed by, the ground near it was scorched black.

Next, Fang Xingjian tightened his grip on the light sword, and its light turned from white to blue. He slashed out again, and instantly, a chilling gust of air was sent forth, causing layers of ice and frost to appear on the ground.

A satisfied smile emerged on Fang Xingjian’s face. Then the light sword he was holding suddenly surged upward, seeming to turn into a myriad of lights and shadows which encompassed him.

The expression in James’ gaze turned serious as he said, “The Supreme Mistwind Sword together with the Radiant Light Sword Technique, and then the Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash… Is it the Zenith Light Sword Formation? ” Clearly, the synthesis of these three sets of sword techniques had already been figured out by someone before.

James then said, “With the Ninety Thousand Godly Demon Flash’s special effect added in, one sword will become multiple swords, enabling the use of sword formations. You can try out its prowess.”

Therefore, the Luminous Heaven Soaring Slash became the Zenith Light Sword Formation and allowed the user to create fluctuating light swords which had temperatures ranging from -100 degrees celsius to 2000 degrees celsius. It could also create light swords to set up light sword formations, allowing Fang Xingjian to become stronger once again.

Moreover, Fang Xingjian’s Zenith Light Sword Formation was at an extremely high level of 40. Be it the prowess of the fluctuating light swords or the sword formations, both of them far surpassed the prowess of an ordinary Zenith Light Sword Formation.

The overwhelming light swords condensed and then turned into six floating light spheres. They hovered behind Fang Xingjian like floating batteries, presenting a fan shape formation.

At his thought, streams of light swords shot out from the light spheres and hit against the ground. In that instant, large areas of charred or frosted surfaces were formed.

Fang Xingjian then put his palms together with his fingers clenched down. The light swords, which had shot out from the six light spheres, immediately merged together, forming a light pillar and then sweeping down toward the ground. Under this sustained heat, the surface started to melt and crystallize.

However, this was just an experiment after all. So, the light sword withdrew upon one touch, and Fang Xingjian ended the Zenith Light Sword Formation.

James continued to nod as he said, “The prowess of your Zenith Light Sword Formation far surpasses that of the others in your generation. The synthesis of these three sets of sword techniques is very powerful, and as we move on to synthesizing with a fourth sword technique, fifth sword technique, and so on… the number of known synthesis combinations gets increasingly fewer in number.”

As he continued to speak, his tone became excited, “If you choose to synthesize with a sword technique which hasn’t been attempted with before, a new combination will appear.”

Right now, Fang Xingjian was simply an amazing treasure in James’ eyes. After having given Fang Xingjian guidance for the past few days, he completely understood just how terrifying Fang Xingjian’s talent was.
