“The three great immortal sects’ experts at tier nine of the Divine level? I happen to wish to spar with them,” Fang Xingjian said with a smile and looked toward Urethai. “You’ve been battling with them all these years?”
Urethai shook his head. “At the beginning, it was one small battle every three days, and one big battle every ten days. When I got increasingly familiar with tier nine of the Divine level powers, they basically stopped trying to test me.
“I’ve fought against the Ascendant Heavenly Sect’s Heavenly Emperor, the Longevity Palace’s Immortal Yuqing, and the Flying Celestial Sect’s Venerable Master Zhai Xing. However. they hold reservations against each other and are also afraid that I’ll risk my life to attack their Western Land, annihilating the lower realm. Therefore, our exchanges have been restrained, and they haven’t joined forces to attack me.”
Many scenes of Urethai’s memories flashed in his eyes. His mind was filled with the battles that had taken place over the ten or more years.
“All three of them are characters with top-notch martial arts and are all at tier nine of the Divine level.
“The Ascendant Heavenly Sect reveres strength. The Heavenly Emperor’s martial will is probably the strongest in the world. When he performs the Royal Heavenly Great Palm Imprint at full power, even I will have to dodge despite having the White Emperor Zenith Sword.
“The Immortal Yuqing is a person who collects other people’s good qualities. He is capable of picking up any martial technique at one look, mastering them when he tries to practice them. In his hands, any martial technique can be used to yield extraordinary results. In fact, in the few times we fought, he already learned a large half of my martial arts.
“If it wasn’t because the Church has a deep and strong legacy, with each supreme martial technique being extremely profound and having no flaws, I’d probably have lost to him a long time ago.
“And there’s also the Venerable Master Zhai Xing. This person… Is the one who is the deepest and most unfathomable character out of the three of them,” Urethai said with a sigh.
“He has probably lived for over 10,000 years, and even the Western Land’s records don’t show which year he was born. This is a person who can truly be called a living fossil. No one knows his true name, his limits, or how long he has lived for.
“Do you know how terrifying this is? The life span conversion technique allows for the conversion between strength and life span. The fact that he was able to live for so many years yet retain his powers at tier nine of the Divine level shows that his strength has always been improving throughout the many years.
“He is probably the person who is the closest to pinnacle of tier nine of the Divine level.”
Urethai briefly introduced the Western Land’s three top-notch experts. He looked at Fang Xingjian and said, “Do you understand it now? The waters in Western Land are too deep. Don’t interfere recklessly before you’ve gotten the powers at tier nine of the Divine level.
“Moreover, it’s also too late for you to head over now. In the past when Adam and the others headed over, the three great immortal sects hadn’t implemented strict surveillance over the entrance.
“However, ever since 100 years ago, after the infiltration plan was exposed, the entrance has been put under strict surveillance. Even if you wish to head over…”
Urethai turned to look at the Great Yan’s fleet and said, “At the very least, you’ll need to make preparations similar to theirs, concealing your own cultivation.”
However, after Fang Xingjian heard Urethai’s introductions, he did not shrink back at all. Instead, his eyes glimmered with a bright light that was a clear indication of interest.
“It doesn’t matter. The reason I’m heading to the Western Land is so that I can fight against experts at tier nine of the Divine level,” Fang Xingjian said. “I only hope that they don’t disappoint me and can help me attain further breakthroughs in my martial arts.”
“Kid, you’re too arrogant,” Urethai chided with a frown while feeling his heart ache a little. “You aren’t god. Even if you’ve inherited my tier nine of the Divine level powers, you’ll only be on par with one of them.
“As for the current you…”
Urethai’s eyes narrowed like he could see the connection between Fang Xingjian and the surrounding space-time. “Although you’ve reached tier seven of the Divine level, that is nothing in front of them.”
“Who knows?” Fang Xingjian’s thoughts changed slightly, and he once again controlled the entire fleet to advance toward the Western Land.
Urethai sighed. Then just as he was about to stop Fang Xingjian when the Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection, it took a step forward and blocked Urethai’s path. “Don’t stop me. I’m looking for their trouble. I don’t wish to bully you.”
Hearing Fang Xingjian’s words, Urethai’s brows furrowed deeply. He felt that Fang Xingjian was far too arrogant. The battle prowess at tier nine of the Divine level was the greatest height of this world. Who would be able to bully him?
However, in Fang Xingjian’s opinion, given that each of his martial art projections possessed a martial will of 90,000 points, he would just be bullying them, regardless of what realm of the Divine level they were at.
Just then, streams of brilliant light lit up in the horizons. They were still several thousand kilometers away one moment before. Yet at the next moment, they had already encompassed the entire stretch of sea that could be seen.
Countless golden figures flashed and appeared amidst the cloud layers. It was as if several hundred thousands or millions of heavenly soldiers and generals had descended to the mortal world. The gushing pressure pressed down on the surface of the entire stretch of sea, causing it to be completely still like the surface of a mirror.
Urethai stared at this scene. “It’s the Ascendant Heavenly Sect’s Heavenly Emperor. Why has he come?” As he spoke, eight streams of light abruptly lit up on his body. They were the eight sections of the White Emperor Zenith Sword.
Streams of white light encompassed himself and Fang Xingjian while invisible powers clashed against the Heavenly Emperor’s powers in midair. Large batches of plasma light and distorted space were created from the collisions.
Urethai spoke with a grim countenance, “His cultivation has improved once again. When we fight later, you be careful and stay here. You mustn’t go out.
“Once we start fighting at full power, even I won’t have extra energy to protect you.”
As he spoke, the spatial distortions around Fang Xingjian got increasingly worse, becoming so blurry that the scene in the far distance could no longer be seen clearly. It was as if he had been separated into another stretch of space.
Urethai thought, ‘Damn it, it has to be now of all times. Fang Xingjian must not die.’
Both of them were experts at the same realm. Once they started fighting, they would be evenly matched. However, Urethai had to protect Fang Xingjian and thus faced many hindrances.
If the Heavenly Emperor were to focus his attacks onto Fang Xingjian, then Urethai would also be impeded.
The golden cloud layers in the sky slowly separately, and a figure who was completely covered in golden armor walked out slowly.
However, in contrast to the surrounding golden cloud layers as well as the domineering prestige and air of royalty transmitted from the layers of golden armor, this person sent out a feeling of great love and benevolence. It was like he was treating the heavens, the earth, the sun, the moon, and all the people of the world as his own children.
This was the first time Fang Xingjian had seen someone with the disposition as if they were the parent of the heavens and the earth, as well as the moon and the sun. However, he was able to sense a great deep and unfathomable feeling.
From this point alone, it was clear that this person’s realm was a lot higher than the Crown Princess’.
At the next moment, the Heavenly Emperor spoke up slowly. As he opened his mouth, the wind and clouds started to flow in reverse, and the entire world became silent.
All of the sounds in the world seemed to disappear at this very instant. It was the same even for Tang Xian and Huang Shan, who were at tier six of the Divine level. They did all that they could but we still unable to hear any traces of sound waves at all.
It was as if the moment the Heavenly Emperor made a sound, there must not be any other noises existing in the world.
