Looking at Fang Xingjian, Rota forced a smile, "How have you been?"
Fang Xingjian looked at the two people behind Rota and asked calmly, "What happened?"
"Nothing much." Rota fell silent for a moment before suddenly asking, "Xingjian, what do you think of the Rebirth Sword Technique?"
"It's a good sword technique."
Just as Fang Xingjian said this, the man in black behind Rota walked out and said, "Alright, Rota, stop dragging things out. Let me get straight to the point."
This man in black had white hair and a ruddy complexion, but his gaze was cold and sinister. His lips were very thin and pale, and he appeared to be a vicious and merciless person.
The corners of the old man's lips curled down as he looked at Fang Xingjian and said, "Fang Xingjian, the Rebirth Sword Technique has great implications. Before you've completely researched the sword technique, you shouldn't spread it out. You're too careless in this aspect. "You should cultivate for a few more years before creating your own sword technique."
Fang Xingjian threw a glance at Rota and asked, "Who is this old man?"
The old man in black's eyes widened and he said furiously, "It's really as the rumors say. What an arrogant lad."
Rota frowned and said helplessly, "Xingjian, this is our clan's Old Ancestor. He left to cultivate 50 years ago and has never cared about us. Yet now, he wants us to pass a message to you. "The Old Ancestor is already at second transition level 22."
To the small aristocrats in the city where Rota was from, a level 22 Conferred Knight was already an important character who was like a god. However, there was not much respect in Rota's eyes. After all, this was the Regional Academy, and she had personally witnessed Fang Xingjian defeating Conferred Knights many times.
"Since you've already left home, why did you come back? You weren't around when others needed you, but when they didn't, you popped out." How could a level 22 Conferred Knight be of any importance to Fang Xingjian? He threw a casual glance at the old man in black and said, "Scram. Don't interfere with Rota. Her talent is much higher than yours. Don't hold her back."
"Me? I'm delaying him?! " The black-robed old man was so infuriated that his lungs were about to explode. Fifty years ago, he had left home and joined the Li River Sect. He had trained hard in the sect and had finally reached second transition level 22. Which of the juniors would not tremble in fear when they saw him?
This time, he was ordered by the Sect Master to talk to Fang Xingjian. Who would have thought that this Fang Xingjian would actually give him no face at all?
"Fine, fine, fine. You think I won't dare to do anything to you just because you have James and Holden behind you? I'll make a move now. I want to see what they can do to me without you by my side. "
As he spoke, the black-robed elder stretched out his hand and a stream of blood shot out from his palm. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a blood spear which stabbed towards Fang Xingjian.
This Myriad Blood Spear contained countless types of curses and poisons. With just a slight touch, it would seep into one's body through one's skin. By then, all sorts of extreme itchiness and pain would be felt, making it difficult for one to choose between life and death.
The black-robed elder's arm trembled, and the blood spear turned into a wave of blood that gushed out towards Fang Xingjian, wanting to engulf his entire body and make him suffer.
This wave of blood gushed up into the sky, as if a tsunami had appeared out of nowhere. That pungent smell of blood could almost cause ordinary people to faint from fright. If this wave of blood gushed out, it would probably be able to engulf an entire village.
The moment the old man made his move, he displayed the tyrannical power of a level 22 Conferred Knight. Moreover, he did not hold back at all. He wanted to teach Fang Xingjian a good lesson.
'Hmph, this damned lad. After being praised by a few old fools in the Great Western Region, he no longer knows how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is.'
Just as the old man was thinking of this, Fang Xingjian tapped out with a finger, and over a thousand streams of Aquatic Sword Qis gushed out, also turning into a tsunami and gushing out. However, compared to the old man's blood wave, the tsunami of over a thousand streams of Aquatic Sword Qis was almost deafening, and its aura was many times more majestic.
The tsunami formed from over a thousand streams of Aquatic Sword Qis turned into a huge palm and smashed out fiercely. Just the shock waves formed from the tremors in the air caused the old man's blood wave to dissipate with a loud boom.
They were both level 22 Conferred Knights, but Fang Xingjian's Aquatic Sword Formation was at level 40, while the old man's Myriad Blood Spear was only at level 15. How could they be a match for each other?
The old man bellowed furiously, and streams of blood waves smashed toward the huge palm formed from the tsunami. The blood waves, which had a pressure of several hundred kilograms per square meter, could smash anyone into the ground like the scene of a car accident. However, they were unable to do anything to Fang Xingjian's Aquatic Sword Qis.
The streams of blood waves were torn apart and crushed. In the end, the old man in black was sent flying by the huge palm. He spurted out a large mouthful of blood in midair, and it was unknown how many bones he had broken.
'Damn it, to think that this Fang Xingjian is so powerful? Could it be that he relied on his own abilities to clear the entire Killing Techniques Palace? He's only 17 years old. How is this possible? '
Even when he had fallen to the ground, his eyes continued to stare at Fang Xingjian, as if he could not understand how Fang Xingjian could be so much stronger than him.
"You're only at level 22, struggling at death's door. You're not even as powerful as I was when I was at level 20." Fang Xingjian shook his head and said, "Rota, only the Regional Academy's second transition and Killing techniques are the way to the throne. Don't follow his example and take the unorthodox path, learning the martial arts of some small sects. You'll only end up harming yourself and others."
For the old man to be able to go through the second transition and reach level 22, although he had expended a lot of hard work and had reached the limits of his talent, even using various secret techniques from the Li River Sect, this had always been the thing that he was most proud of. How could he tolerate such criticism from Fang Xingjian?
This was especially so when it came to the words' small sects'. It hit him where it hurt the most.
When the old man heard this, he was so infuriated that he spurted out a large mouthful of blood and almost fainted.
Looking at the Old Ancestor who was lying on the ground like a drowned rat, Rota looked at Fang Xingjian in astonishment. The last time she had seen him clearing the Killing Techniques Palace, Fang Xingjian had not been so powerful. To think that he could now defeat a level 22 Conferred Knight with a single move!
She had seen Fang Xingjian's performance in the Killing Techniques Palace previously and knew that her Old Ancestor was probably not a match for Fang Xingjian. That was why she had brought him here, wanting to borrow Fang Xingjian's power to shake off the Old Ancestor's suppression. However, she had not expected that the Old Ancestor would not even be able to take a single move from him.
Hearing Fang Xingjian's words, Rota's gaze narrowed. When she lifted her head again, she saw that Fang Xingjian had already left.
She shouted loudly, "Fang Xingjian, I'll definitely not learn from him! I'll definitely complete the second transition in a dignified manner, break through the Killing Techniques Palace, and then walk right up to you!"
However, Fang Xingjian did not listen to her. The black-robed old man's arrival was a signal. If it could be said that the association had informed the Sword Arts Department to investigate themselves earlier so that they could comprehend it themselves and surrender, then the old man's arrival meant that the other party had seen that they were planning to fight to the end and was starting to exert real pressure on them. Otherwise, how could a second transition level 22 Conferred Knight possibly be so arrogant and enter so casually?
'Are they going to start with the people around me?'
Fang Xingjian seemed to be able to sense waves of invisible power pressing down on the Great Western Region and the Great Western City.
After returning to the training room, Fang Xingjian temporarily put aside his worries. It was useless for him to let his thoughts run wild. The most important thing now was to raise his abilities. Moreover, the Second Prince's faction would definitely go and fend off the real pressure.
Therefore, he started to control the skill seeds in his consciousness to synthesize them. His Aquatic Sword Formation was already at the maximum level of 40, and it was time for him to synthesize it with the Thunder Prison Earth Sword. Once he succeeded, he would have completed the third level of the Killing Techniques Palace's sword techniques, and he would be even closer to the final Prodigious Demolition Sword.
