Chapter 896 - Cube (2/2)

In the next moment, he was slashed into dust, then scattered into the air.

At the same time, both Wan Tong and Old Tian gasped, meaning to escape.

The two of them instantly disappeared at almost light speed, which would allow them to get to any corner of the Earth within a second.

If ordinary experts wished to deal with them, even if they were more powerful, the chase and pursuit would still take some effort. However, how powerful were Fang Xingjian’s illusory arts? Moreover, his act of killing Qiu Dao with a single sword slash had a strong intent to instill fear and the sense of threat. It made others unable to find the source of the danger through their Sudden Inspiration’s senses, just because the danger was everywhere.

Therefore, the two of them had just moved when two streams of silver-colored longswords pierced their bodies.

One of them was the Thunder Calamity, while the other was Panwei. Through the two swords’ stirring, the victims’ conjured physiques shattered. Then, sword light flashed and all martial will was completely wiped out.

Watching as three Divine-level experts were instantly destroyed in but an instant, everyone present went utterly silent, as quiet as cicadas in winter.

Fang Xingjian looked at the Snake King and the other Divine-level experts and calmly instructed, “Since the Divine Emperor has been wiped out, we’ll now need to save humanity, restore civilization, guiding the people in their martial arts cultivation and in absorbing ether particles.

“I’ll leave this matter in your hands.”

The Snake King stood out, cupped his hands together and said respectfully, “Please be assured. With the four of us handling this personally, and adding the Qiu Dao Alliance’s influence, we’ll be able to accomplish this in at most half a month’s time.”

Fang Xingjian nodded. There was no need for him to be busy himself with these things. He could instead make use of this time to cultivate and to send out his clones to explore this world.

In the next moment, his body retreated from the Heaven-Connecting Upper Extremity Sword Physique’s final form. Then, taking a step at almost light speed, he arrived in the original spot inside the underground base.

The high technology base that used to look like a beehive had completely disappeared after the fight between Fang Xingjian and the Divine Emperor. Left behind was a huge pitch-black crater.

The reason Fang Xingjian had come to this place was, naturally, to look for the cube that the Divine Emperor had left behind.

Originally, he thought that the Divine Emperor possessed so much high technology and was even able to fend off Qiu Dao Alliance’s advances because he possessed a system, some kind of system that would allow him to make exchanges for high technology.

It was how things were in the previous world that Fang Xingjian had been to. Too many humans were affected by ether particles and possessed all sorts of other systems that were akin to the Knight system.

However, by the looks of it, the Divine Emperor did not really possess a system. His physical strength originated from a cultivation technique that was different from the Knights’ cultivation path. It had to be a cultivation method of a certain race in the multivariate universe.

And his technologies had come from the cube he used previously. In the short amount of time that this cube appeared, it had taken over the entire planet’s network and had instantly wiped out all consciousness the Divine Emperor had uploaded.

Fang Xingjian walked up to it and saw the silver cube that was the size of a person’s palm quietly floating in midair. It seemed to be unaffected by the battle between Fang Xingjian and the Divine Emperor.

Fang Xingjian’s gaze landed on the cube’s surface and then with a slight thought, his martial will probed the cube.

He was extremely curious about this thing that could bestow the Divine Emperor with so many robotic armies.

However, his martial will had just come into contact with the cube when it shook abruptly, becoming increasingly transparent, then started to disappear.

Fang Xingjian’s gaze narrowed and he stretched out his palm. It was as if the world’s most terrifying power was contained within it and space kept distorting on his palm, as if an entire world was being nurtured within it.
