758 Swordsmanship (1/2)
”The entire purple star is a huge battlefield!”
Fang Yuan casually found a palace and sat down cross-legged, his eyes glittering. ”There's plenty of origin power left behind from the Mental Demon Realm's invasion, and this place is rich in secondary elemental force as well. I'm like a fish in water here!”
The large amount of concentrated origin power constantly resulted in the birth of dreadful demons on this star.
If left untouched, they would soon devour one another, catalyzing the creation of a being capable of disrupting the world.
That was why the Heavenly Court had Celestial Thearch guard the gates and sent in large batches of powerful soldiers to clear up the Mental Demon Battlefield regularly. Other than killing demons, it was also the Heavenly Court's intention to guard the seal.
There were a few higher beings from the Mental Demon Realm on the Mental Demon Battlefield that had come. Despite being defeated, they could not be killed, so they were sealed in the battlefield instead.
Their vitality was beyond imagination, and they could not be annihilated unless the entire star was refined.
”Therefore, the Mental Demon Battlefield is troublesome for the Heavenly Court, but not really a disaster… After all, it's already under control and will be refined in the future if nothing goes wrong. No wonder Consort Xiang is so anxious about saving that existence!”
After considering the situation he was in, Fang Yuan started to think about his own problems.
This place was doubtlessly a huge treasure to him. Both the origin power from the nucleus of the star and the sealed higher beings were invaluable in his mind.
Fang Yuan thought for a moment before making a decision.
”Looks like it's time to find an opportunity to act individually!”
In fact, the Gods in the army would rather stay at the base camp or follow large groups than go to the battlefield on their own.
What Fang Yuan wanted was the other way around.
”Now, I have to find an appropriate excuse…”
…
Three days passed by in a flash. In the White Jade Plaza.
This was the heart of the Heaven Palace. An announcement could be seen on a wall, recording the names of many Gods followed by their military honors.
The first few were surely six Ancient Gods, and below them were the names of Marquises written in tiny words and squeezed together.
”A Marquis must achieve at least 10,000 achievements before applying to return, and an Ancient God at least 100,000! After going back, they can turn all the achievements into heavenly honors, which can be exchanged for treasures in the Heavenly Court's treasure vault, or even directly for titles!”
These few days, Fang Yuan was disinclined to meditate and recover, and instead strolled outside, so he had already heard all of this.
”But this goal is too hard to achieve for most Gods. It's merely a carrot on a stick.”
”Everyone! We guardians of the Heaven Palace are divided into seven divisions. All of you belong to my division, Vast Heaven!”
Ancient God Black Dragon appeared below the announcement in his battle armor and said with a confident demeanor, ”We're new here and it's a shame that we haven't accomplished anything yet. Follow me out of the Heaven Palace and onto the battlefield to kill as many demons as possible!”
”Yes!” The Marquises complained silently, but had no choice other than following the order.
”Hmm?” Fang Yuan sensed something abnormal. ”This God Black Dragon wants to kill me?”
Any superior would dislike someone who defied rules as he did, so it was perfectly normal for them to show disgust toward him.
But the killing intent was a different matter!
While Black Dragon concealed it very well, his intent could not be concealed from the detection of a Dream Master.
”We don't have anything against each other, and what happened before was not sufficient to evoke such hostility. Did someone incite him to kill me?”
Fang Yuan had a sharp mind and understood everything immediately. ”So he's creating an opportunity to take my life on the battlefield? That's exactly what I want…”
…
”Let's go!”
God Black Dragon unhesitantly set out.
As a Dragon God, he had some fortune at least. He lifted his hand and a small, seven-colored sailboat emerged. The boat quickly became large and carried them onward through the air.
Fang Yuan sat cross-legged on the boat, looking around casually.
There are seven military divisions on the frontline, each led by an Ancient God supervising dozens of Marquises. The Vast Heaven Division should be the name used by the Gods who returned earlier…
”Greetings, brother. Are you Lord Mountain River?”
A God was currently squeezing his way through the crowd. He had a pair of round eyes on a smiling face. ”My name is Hai Fu, and I'm Lord Cold Mountain!”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
It was common for Gods to form groups and help one another, but Fang Yuan's behavior was abnormal.
Of course, there were Gods who thought that such an abnormal behavior had to imply either surprising strength or powerful backers, and thus took the initiative to chat with him.
”So you're Lord Cold Mountain!” Fang Yuan took a quick glance at him and gave him a perfunctory smile.
”I've heard of Lord Mountain River before. You annihilated the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect, really boosting the morale of the Divine Dao…” Lord Cold Mountain did not mind his indifferent reaction and continued talking. Finally, he said what was really on his mind, ”Consort Xiang has always been impartial as the Messenger Office's master. It was really rare that she would let God Black Dragon wait for your seclusion to finish…”
”If my backer was really that powerful, how would I have ended up here?”
Fang Yuan shrugged, looking as if he could see through the God's thoughts.
”Sigh… We're all unlucky!”
The fat body of Hai Fu thumped down as he said with a bitter expression, ”My fate was also pathetic. I showed disrespect during Excellency Mount Mang's birthday celebration and was then sent here…”
”Disrespect in front of His Excellency?” Fang Yuan was mildly shocked.
