Chapter 710: The Number One PersonTranslator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

The people on the ground were unaware of the situation in the sky.

Regional Chief Benjamin backed off slowly like he had instantly aged by ten years. “Such sword arts… the Great Western Region… the First Prince no longer has any hopes… Fang Xingjian has completely established his position at the pinnacle of sword arts. It is likely that throughout the entire Empire, the Sword Slash of the Secular World is the only one who can be a match for him.”

Asto sighed and also departed. “Let’s go, let’s go. As long as Fang Xingjian is still alive, the First Prince won’t have any more chances.”

On the ground, countless people continued to be astonished by Fang Xingjian’s sword attack. Numerous sword practitioners looked at the Fang Xingjian in the sky with tear stricken faces, seemingly touched by the sword attack that could split the physical body and the will.

After that day, Fang Xingjian’s reputation in the sword arts domain would be over ten times or even a hundred times more than what it had been in the past. It would even be able to surpass that of The School of Sword Arts. Only the Sword Slash of the Secular World—The School of Sword Arts’ previous Supreme Chief who was one of the previous ten Divine level experts of the Empire and was currently bestowed with a Prince title in the Empire—would be seen as his match.

In the sky, the Fifth Prince did not care about these. He had a savage expression, and his eyes were bloodshot. His hatred toward Fang Xingjian had reached an extreme.

Simultaneously, he also thought that Alexander would be able to deal with Fang Xingjian with ease. It was because other than being able to distort space, those at tier five of the Divine level could also directly compress, stretch, and fold up space. They could even create an alternate dimension known as the Divine Country to use in their battles.

Against experts who were below tier five of the Divine level, possessing such abilities was an absolute advantage.

After all, with the compressing and folding of space, even light speed attacks would not reach the tier five Divine level experts. With the Divine Country, those who were being attacked could only receive the blows and find it hard to retaliate.

It was like how Fang Xingjian was trapped in Alexander’s Divine Country previously and could only watch as Jacob and the others were saved and brought away.

However, what the Fifth Prince was unaware of was that in order to go up against Alexander, Fang Xingjian had specially integrated the Thunder Calamity and strengthened the prowess of the Celestial Eradication Sword Formation. Thereafter, he had also strived for tier three of the Divine level and merged his soul and body into one. Having merged his will and body into one, he had become the true Heaven-Connecting Sword Physique.

Right now, even if the Black Mage King or Gold Mage King were to come, Fang Xingjian would not falter in the least, let alone if it was Alexander.

Looking at how the Fifth Prince was wearing a challenging expression, Fang Xingjian flicked the Thunder Calamity longsword in his hand and said calmly, “If Alexander rushes over here to stop me, I’ll just kill him along with you. Since you are so forthright in your words, you can just hand me your life.”

At the next instant, sword marks flashed and brushed against the Fifth Prince’s body at lightning speed. Right now, while holding the Thunder Calamity, Fang Xingjian displayed the All-Conquering sword and possessed the reinforcement of the Celestial Eradication Sword Formation. His prowess had reached an unbelievable degree.

As a sword light flashed, the nanotechnology armor was up into pieces. The armor, which could kick up a storm amongst those at tier three of the Divine level, was easily cut up.

“Stop right there!”

The Fist Emperor roared furiously, and his Asura Physique appeared again. The same six Asura Physique sword intents attacked Fang Xingjian.

“Showing off before an expert.”

Faced with the Fist Emperor’s sword intents, Fang Xingjian coldly sent a sword attack sweeping out. In that instant, the nanotechnology armor shattered. The Fist Emperor’s body broke down, and his will trembled.

With this one attack, the Fist Emperor, who had already been inflicted with heavy injuries to begin with, was killed immediately.

This expert—who had been one of the ten Divine level experts in the Empire, having stood at the top for several decades and ruled over the Great River Alliance which was the greatest underground influence—was slashed up into dust under everyone’s eyes.

The several hundreds of experts who were watching the battle fell silent. A feeling of a fox mourning for the death of a hare 1 flashed in their hearts. To think that such a powerful Divine level expert had been brushed off so easily like sweeping dust. How terrifying and lamentable was this?

Looking at Fang Xingjian who was holding onto his sword, everyone shivered. It was as if a divine sword was hanging right above their heads.
