Chapter 494: Stubborn As A Mule

Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma TranslationsAbove the Fang Clan’s building, Fang Xingjian stood in midair. Each step he took would step on the void space, allowing him to stand upright in midair.

Usually, he had to step on the air at high speed in order to fly in midair. However, this time around, he did not do any action and was just standing there quietly. He was like a fish swimming in the water or a bird flying in the sky.

Tyrant, who was also floating in midair, looked down at the prosperous city and said, “You’ve already successfully mastered the Air Stepping specialty? With this specialty, you’ll be able to tap into the earth’s geomagnetic forces and use them to fly in the air. In midair, your explosive prowess will be no different from when you’re on land.”

As Fang Xingjian walked forward, he sensed how he was standing on the geomagnetic field. It felt no different from when he was stepping on the ground. There was also the backlash of energy, and he could run and jump as he normally did.

This was the specialty: Air Stepping. It was also the specialty Fang Xingjian had newly acquired.

During this period of time, with Tyrant’s body which had reached the level of a Demigod with two tiers of perfection, it had been much easier and simpler for Fang Xingjian to condense his specialty seeds. His physical strength would change almost every minute and every second.

Tyrant looked at Fang Xingjian, who was standing in the air, and he felt a vague sense of pressure.

‘Ever since this guy pushed back Li Shuanghua’s clone, the aura he exudes has become increasingly unfathomable. Now, even I’m not aware of what level his sword arts mastery has reached.’

Then Tyrant looked down at the prosperous city, and his eyes lit up with a curious glow, “The people in this world are really special. Although there are very few Divine level experts, the mechanisms here are very developed and it’s even possible for them to mass produce level 29 experts.”

As the overlapping area between the two worlds was the sea, Tyrant had followed Fang Xingjian from Miracle World’s Western Sea to this world’s Eastern Sea. All along, he had thought that he had simply followed Fang Xingjian to a new country.

Fang Xingjian did not reply and just continued cultivating his fifth God-Slaying Sword.

‘A Divine level expert’s powerful martial will can transmit at light speed, extending out to a 1,000-meter range. Therefore, it isn’t practical to hope to use one’s physical body to face it.

‘After all, each of the other party’s thoughts would be transmitted at light speed. When each thought strikes the individual, he may not even have the time to clench his fist. Therefore, it would be impossible to use one’s physical body to go against it.

‘Will is the only thing that can go against another will. Although my ‘Light Pursuit’ can result in a time lag, attacking at one-hundredth of a second before they react, this little bit of time wouldn’t be enough to kill them. It won’t bring about an absolute advantage.

‘The damaging prowess of the fourth sword, ‘All-Conquering’, is powerful enough, but it isn’t as fast as the Light Pursuit’s sword ripples. It would too easy for them to obstruct and dodge the fourth sword.

‘I still need the fifth sword before I can have a decisive advantage.’

Fang Xingjian was confident that with his abilities, and the Four God-Slaying Swords as well as the Heaven’s Volition Sword Intent and the Terra Ingurgitation, he was a good match for the Earth’s Divine level experts when they were on Earth, which was a unique battlefield. However, for him to be even stronger, there was a need for him to be capable of performing the fifth God-Slaying Sword.

To Fang Xingjian, this sword was one which could allow the weak to overcome the strong, and thus become able to directly kill the will of a Divine level expert. It was a purely mental sword attack.

Just as Fang Xingjian was slowly condensing his fifth sword, there was a commotion at the ground floor of the Fang Clan’s building.

…

Fang Xingjian stood above the rooftop, looking down at the rows of walking robot soldiers. He said in surprise, “Robots?” He lifted his head and discovered many metallic monsters flying about in the air. Rows of high speed machine guns and missiles kept locking onto his body.

Fang Yuehe said a little nervously, “They are a purely mechanized troop. They are also the trump troop that our Fang Clan formed in the Federation, the Zero troop.”

“Powerful Conferred Knights or Demigods, or even Divine level experts would be able to destroy an ordinary Warrior’s will with just a thought. Therefore, the robot troop was specially developed to fight against consciousness attack.

“The exterior of these robots are all made from alloy, and they are equipped with various weapons which were designed to go against second transition enemies. Xingjian, you’ll have to be careful.”

Fang Yuehe looked at Fang Xingjian, a little worried. In a mere couple of hours, Fang Xingjian had removed Li Shuanghua from her position. However, although Fang Xingjian was the clan’s head in name, the actual management had been left to Fang Yuehe. Fang Xingjian did not even implement any restrictions on him and had no intentions on interfering at all.
