“Damn it! Damn it!
“Fang Xingjian! I’m going to kill him! I’m going to let him know that going up against me is the thing he’ll regret the most throughout his entire life!”
Waves of intense fury and hatred unleashed explosively, and there seemed to be a breeze of eerie wind blowing in the valley.
However, with the unleash of the waves of fury, the Fifth Prince’s martial will, that was like a phantom image, became increasingly thinner. It was as if he was going to disappear from this world at any moment.
In fact, for those below the Divine level, after having their physical bodies destroyed and only their martial wills remaining in the physical world, they should not be able to exist for long.
The will required the support from the physical body in order to exist in the consciousness. That was unless the individual could train up their will to the Divine level, thereby turning into a material existence that could affect the physical world.
Seeing that the Fifth Prince was slowly dissipating amidst his waves of fury, Tian Yi said in a deep voice, “Focus and calm yourself down. Don’t let your mind run wild. If this goes on, you’ll really die!”
“Die?” The Fifth Prince laughed out maniacally. “Without a physical body, what’s the point in living on? I might as well be dead.”
“Without a physical body, you can follow me in purely tempering your martial will,” Tian Yi said nonchalantly. “Even if you’re unwilling to purely cultivate your martial will, you can still wait till your will gets more powerful before you snatch a physical body and revive once again.”
“Snatch a physical body and revive once again?” The Fifth Prince was stunned for a moment before saying, “That’s right. I want to revive! I want to seek revenge from Fang Xingjian! I want him to beg while feeling great regret and pain!”
Waves of hatred were endlessly unleashed from deep within the Fifth Prince’s consciousness, making him exude streams of faint black light.
“This is the way to go,” Tian Yi said coldly. “That Fang Xingjian is truly an opponent more formidable than any others I have ever met before. If I don’t get rid of this person, my heart won’t be at ease.” Right now, Tian Yi was feeling equally bad. The light he was emitting from all over his body had become so faint that it was like a layer of paper. It was as though if a gush of wind were to blow past, Tian Yi would disappear completely.
The attack from the Heaven’s Volition Sword Intent, which had struck a gap in his soul in that instant, had damaged him greatly.
Thinking of the terrifying prowess from the Heaven’s Volition Sword Intent, Tian Yi’s light figure seemed to tremble uncontrollably.
‘With this great blow, I’ve lost the fruit of my hard work for the past three months at least.’ Tian Yi’s eyes narrowed. ‘Fang Xingjian, was it? I’ll have you remembered now.’
The Fifth Prince finally managed to calm himself down as he said, “Let’s recover first and then go look for my sworn elder brother. He’s the Fist Emperor, the leader of the Great River Alliance and one of the ten great Divine level experts in the Empire. With his help, we’ll definitely be able to regain our abilities before seeking Fang Xingjian for revenge.”
…
Countless levels underground below the grass plains in the north.
The place was completely filled with the auras of sulfur and intense flames. The dark underground river formed from streams of lava continued to emit waves of powerful heat ceaselessly.
A figure wrapped up in a gray cloak from head to toe darted out from a cave.
The Terrene Shrine’s Grand Elder, the Worm King, who had been at the side immediately went up and said, “My Lord, you’re back? How’s Fang Xingjian?”
The World Annihilation Heavenly Lord’s hoarse voice rasped from under the gray robe, “This lad really did not go all out when he was fighting against you guys.” He once again recalled Fang Xingjian’s Instant, which had come and left without a trace. Right now, the World Annihilation Heavenly Lord was feeling extremely wary against Fang Xingjian.
Even a Divine level expert like himself had not been able to sense where that sword attack had come from.
“Fang Xingjian isn’t to be underestimated. Leave him be for now. Wait till I’ve attained a breakthrough to the second tier of the Divine level, and my will and physical body are able to transform interchangeably, then I’ll be able to offer my own physical body as a sacrifice to perform black magic, completely refining this Drought Demon True Physique. By then, I’ll naturally be able to suppress him with great ease,” the World Annihilation Heavenly Lord said nonchalantly. “Fang Xingjian isn’t the crux. It’s the Black Demon and the others. To think that they are going to join forces with the Empire’s royal family to kill an evil god’s clone.
“Hmph, can the clone of an evil god be killed so easily? But it’s good that they’re doing this as well. If I can refine the Drought Demon True Physique before they succeed, I’ll be able to profit from this risky operation and become the one to gain the most out of this.
