Chapter 1072 - Confrontation (2/2)

How strong was the imperial court?

Fang Yuan and the other two exchanged a glance and knew that they had thought too simply of the imperial court in the past.

Right now, the Great Jin Dynasty was like a deep and bottomless pond. No one knew what kind of monster was living in the depths of the pond.

“The only hope lies in us.”

“We must attain a breakthrough to the Great Dao Realm. As long as we combine the powers of six Great Dao Realm experts, we’ll definitely be able to defeat Fang Xuan.”

…

Time continued to pass by as the confrontation between the south and the north carried on.

A few months later, close to two years of time had passed by since the time Fang Xingjian first arrived in this world. During this period of time, chaos and rebels were scattered across the lands.

During this period, there were many subjects that kept on submitting reports to request for troops to be dispatched to wipe out the rebels from the three regions in the south.

Fang Xingjian was still studying the changes to the heaven-blessed cultivators on both sides and did not wish to engage in a war too early. He felt that there was still plenty of time.

After the Crown Princess traded all of the sword techniques with Fang Xingjian, she announced that she would enter training in conclusion. It seemed that she wanted to fully focus on deriving the high-dimensional sword arts, hoping to be able to attain a breakthrough to the two-dimensional seal that had been applied on her.

On the Flying Immortal Mountain, two invisible pressures came down from the sky. The majestic Qi activities seemed to cause a change to the world within a range of 1,000 lis.

As the two yin and yang Qis rapidly changed, streams of lightning cut across the sky, typhoons raged on, and heavy rain came down.

However, the bad weather sustained only for a short while before the sky cleared up a few minutes later. The sun shone down brightly, and the dark clouds rapidly dissipated at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.

Still, the clear weather did not sustain for long either. Not long later, snowflakes started falling down from the sky.

Rainstorms, lightning, typhoons, heavy snow, clear sky…. All sorts of weather changes occurred continuously within the range of 1,000 lis. It was as if there was a pair of invisible hands that kept on changing the world’s vital energies and magnetic fields.

In a stone chamber, Xiao Shen was staring at a black box in his hand, frowning whilst being deep in thought. He saw the words written on it— Cosmic Cube 1 . Occasionally, the black box would emit a layer of faint blue light. However, no matter how Xiao Shen observed or probed it with his Gang Qi, he was unable to get any useful information.

If it was not because he could hold onto this Cosmic Cube, he would almost think that it was an illusion.

This state that could be touched but not seen clearly made him felt increasingly aggrieved.

This condition could be said to be a norm over the past few months.

“I understand it now.”

A hint of comprehension suddenly flashed in Xiao Shen’s eyes. The Cosmic Cube in his hand suddenly disappeared. Unexpectedly, a faint layer of blue light was being emitted from under the surface of his skin. It was as if the Cosmic Cube had gushed into his body.

“Hahahaha, so that’s how it is, so that’s how it is. I’ve finally made sense of the principles behind this Cosmic Cube.”

As the blue light flashed, a series of intense light waves surged out from his body.

“Universe, heed my calling!”

Endless Gang Qi condensed together at the spot above Xiao Shen’s heart, forming a blue cubic heart. It kept on engulfing and releasing, clearing frantically absorbing all sorts of energies from the world.
