Even if he did not do anything, his strength would continue to increase until it reached the limits of the White Emperor Zenith Sword.
However, in the end, strength was merely his means. His true objective was still mankind’s justice—to turn the whole Earth and all of humanity into his ideal world, wiping out all sins and evil.
Therefore, at the next moment, his gaze penetrated through void space and looked toward the endless future.
The Sun, universe, and void space in front of him all disappeared. He seemed to have already stepped onto Earth’s paths once again.
There were people traveling to and fro on the streets. The streets were busy, the shops were lively, and there were countless flashing lights.
“Why? You can’t wait to see the future?”
Ulpian turned and saw Fang Xingjian dressed in black robes, floating next to him like an illusion. Fang Xingjian was looking at Ulpian like he found this amusing.
Ulpian’s brows raised slightly, and a gleam shone in his eyes. It was as if he was seeing the various images from the past. “Heart Sword Path? To think that you still have the spare energy to do something like this in the midst of the battle?”
He instantly saw where this projection came from. It was Fang Xingjian’s unrivaled Heart Sword Path that had left a sword seed in Ulpian’s heart.
This sword seed used Ulpian’s obsession—the justice in his heart—as nourishment to grow. It was not some ordinary thought but the devil in one’s heart.
However, at one glance, Ulpian paid it no heed. It was because he knew that the Heart Sword Path and the sword seed were merely just a mutation of his thoughts. As long as he paid it no heed, it would disappear before long.
On the contrary, if he were more attached to it, his thoughts would fight and the other party would continue to grow stronger.
In the end, this was one of his other thoughts. The more he thought about it, the more it would grow. Instead, if he paid it no heed, it would be slowly forgotten.
He turned his gaze toward Earth. This was one of the many futures for Earth.
At present, Ulpian’s cultivation was remarkable and a single thought would bring about a world-shattering effect. His will could even penetrate the past and the future, allowing him to see the images from the countless parallel universes.
Right now, he was seeing one of Earth’s futures.
With a slight thought, his will swept through the entire Earth, then he immediately frowned.
Beside him, Fang Xingjian smiled. “How is it? You aren’t satisfied with it, right? This Earth developed based on your original plans. There are no worries for basic necessities, and traffic and housing problems have all been resolved as well.
“However, there are still people who murder, steal, and commit crime.”
Ulpian’s brows furrowed and he said coldly, “My powers are sufficient for me to monitor everyone. It’ll be fine as long as I can monitor everyone and prevent them from committing crimes.”
At the next moment, the world before him shattered abruptly. As Ulpian’s thoughts changed, a new branch appeared in the universe and a brand new future was born—one where all humans were supervised by Ulpian.
The images changed, and Ulpian arrived in this new future. He stood on a piece of floating land, gazing down at the entire Earth.
Currently, the sky was filled with densely-packed floating cities while all the lands were filled with towering forests that reached the clouds.
Mankind’s population had exceeded 100 billion, but basic necessities were still not an issue with Ulpian’s powers.
However, when Ulpian scanned the world with his thoughts, he discovered there were people committing suicide almost everyday. He stopped them while they were in the process of committing suicide.
There were also people committing crimes everyday, and they were stopped by Ulpian before they did so.
