Hearing the news that Anderson was in a coma, Fang Xingjian frowned and asked, "What happened? Who did this? "
Ferdinand said, "Gao Clan's Second Young Master. It's said that the two of them had a conflict at a banquet. Anderson was surrounded and knocked out. They've apologized, but the azure dragon's scale has never been mentioned again."
Fang Xingjian shook his head and sighed, "Where's Zhou Xingwen?"
"Old Zhou is still in the north. He's just gone to the Northern Ice Region."
"Who's the strongest person in Gao Clan?"
Ferdinand said, "Gao Clan's clan head, Gao Zixuan. He's usually in seclusion, but there's news that he's already a second transition level 27 expert. Although he's not a Conferred Knight of the Empire, he's the leader of the Fiery Martial Style. He's proficient in the Fiery Martial Style's Burning Mountains and Boiling Seas Killing technique. "
Fang Xingjian fell silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Forget it. I'll go personally."
Ferdinand was shocked and said, "Xingjian, you're going personally? Isn't it a little dangerous? Right now, the Sand Country's assassins and the First Prince's subordinates are all keeping an eye on you. It's too dangerous for you to leave the Great Western City. "
Fang Xingjian shook his head and said, "The Sand Country's assassins are nothing to worry about. They won't send a true expert to the Empire to take the risk. "As for the First Prince, before he attains the Divine level, he'll still have his reservations about the Holy Orison and won't make a move easily. "Moreover, the other party knows of my background and still dares to make a move against Anderson. They must have something up their sleeves. It'll probably be hard for Old Zhou to deal with them."
"Then what about Gao Zixuan? If he's at level 27 … "
"Level 27 isn't a threat to me." Fang Xingjian often trained with Head of Department James, so he had a rough estimate of the abilities of high-level Conferred Knights. "If I want to leave, they won't be able to stop me."
His sword arts, specialties, attributes, and the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor which could unleash more of its powers, as well as the Heaven's Volition Sword Intent which was constantly circulating in the depths of his consciousness were his greatest reliance.
"Give me a copy of the Gao Clan's information. I'll set off tomorrow and try to return on the same day."
With Fang Xingjian's speed, if he was fast enough, he might really be able to return on the same day.
Even so, he had wasted a day's time. His time was very precious now, and a day's time was sufficient for him to cultivate a few sword techniques to the maximum level.
Thereafter, Fang Xingjian returned to the training room in the Sacred Land and started to comprehend the wonders of being a level 24 Conferred Knight and having a synchronization rate of 50%.
With his Heaven's Perception, Fang Xingjian could clearly sense the energy of all living things. He could also sense the flow of energy in the air.
As a result, with every thrust of his sword, apart from the consideration of his physical strength, air, gravity, and waves, he also had a grasp of the energy of all living things. Everything in the world emits energy all the time, such as heat and light.
'At level 24, with a synchronization rate of over 50%, I can sense the energy of all living things. At this level, Conferred Knights will be able to borrow the energy of all living things in the world with each of their Killing techniques, increasing the lethality and range of their moves.'
As Fang Xingjian thrusted out with his sword, there was an additional layer of blurry light on the tip of his sword. This was the demolition sword light condensed after performing the Prodigious Demolition Sword.
Fang Xingjian's longsword danced about, and wherever the demolition sword light passed by, a layer of the ground would be annihilated. All the air disappeared in an instant. As the longsword swung out, there was no sound of air currents at all. It was because the moment it came into contact with the demolition sword light, it would be annihilated.
It was a true annihilation of all living things. Even sound would not be able to transmit out.
After stepping into level 24, Fang Xingjian could sense that the speed and efficiency of his demolition sword light condensation had increased by more than twofold. He could sense that when he thrust out his sword, the omnipresent energy in the air was strengthened into his sword.
Annihilating a few tons of physical substances was already his limit. However, right now, he could annihilate over ten tons of physical substances before the demolition sword light would dissipate.
The corners of Fang Xingjian's lips curled up into a smile. With a flash, he appeared 100 meters up in the sky. The Zenith Light Sword Formation was activated, and six light spots appeared behind him.
However, at the next moment, countless amounts of energy in the air were added into it, and the light spots grew from the size of a fist to the size of a head.
Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed slightly. With his Heaven's Perception, he saw a mountain peak over ten kilometers away.
The Zenith Light Sword Formation shot out explosively, and a light sword cut across the sky like a laser cannon, striking a huge boulder 15 kilometers away. In an instant, a large part of the boulder was melted.
Fang Xingjian could sense that the light sword shot out by the Zenith Light Sword Formation was absorbing the light and heat from the sky, continuously increasing its prowess.
He shot it out a few more times and discovered that not only had the prowess of the Zenith Light Sword Formation increased, but its range had also increased to 20 kilometers.
'Alright.'
Fang Xingjian then tried out the Ether Sword Ripples. With a single thought, ten streams of sword ripples swept out, cutting through the air and burning up the atmosphere. They then shot out in all directions like fiery meteors.
During this period of cultivation, his agility attribute had reached 259 points. In addition to the increment of his specialties, his maximum speed had already broken through 16 times that of supersonic speed, even though the increase in his speed had become increasingly slower due to the air resistance. With the explosion of the Ether Sword Ripples, the friction in the air was like that of meteors exploding. Sparks flew in all directions, giving off a charred smell.
What was even more terrifying was that this time around, not only did the Ether Sword Ripples sweep out beyond the ten-meter radius of his Heaven's Perception, but they also gradually dissipated after reaching a distance of 30 meters.
As expected, after his synchronization rate broke through 50% and he stepped into level 24, both the prowess and the range of his sword techniques had increased tremendously.
A level 23 Knight could use the heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces to increase his body's toughness, while a level 24 Knight could borrow the energy of all living things in the world to increase the prowess of his Killing techniques.
'But is the effect of the increase in my agility attribute getting weaker and weaker due to the atmospheric resistance? It's better for me to increase my other attributes first. '
Fang Xingjian sensed the speed of the Ether Sword Ripples, as well as the changes in his sword arts cultivation.
Just as he performed his sword techniques once again, Fang Xingjian felt a strange feeling. On his Stats Window, the Unparalleled Sword Intent – Apex seemed to be stirring as well.
In the sky, Fang Xingjian stepped on the air and shot out explosively. The longsword in his hand, which was condensed from water vapor, was swung out, bringing along a large stretch of sword light that encompassed the sky. Fang Xingjian started performing sets of sword techniques one after another.
The Unparalleled Sword Intent – Apex had originally allowed him to see through the weaknesses of all living things, allowing him to pick up any sword techniques extremely quickly. However, as his cultivation gradually increased, he would eventually be able to slash and slice through everything.
All this while, Fang Xingjian could only rely on himself to slash through the Empire's Divine Weapons with his bare hands, and he did not know how he could improve further.
However, now that he had consecutively leveled up, and through the increase in his ether synchronization rate, he was able to sense the waves, heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces, as well as the energy of all living things in the world. The realm of the Unparalleled Sword Intent – Apex had finally increased once again.
After a long while, his movements gradually came to a stop, and there seemed to be an extremely sharp aura circulating all over his body.
Looking at his palm, he suddenly used his finger to cut across it lightly. Without exerting any strength or power, kacha kacha sounds rang out. Just by relying on his pure sword arts realm, he managed to leave behind a white mark on the surface of the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor.
After a few breaths, the power of the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor circulated, erasing the white mark.
Fang Xingjian knew that the Unparalleled Sword Intent – Apex would continue to increase as his ether synchronization rate increased. Right now, he could easily slash through Inferior Divine Weapons with his bare hands. If he were to go all out, he would probably be able to slash through Superior Divine Weapons as well. His abilities had increased tremendously once again.
To begin with, Fang Xingjian had been able to rely on his battle prowess, which far surpassed that of ordinary Conferred Knights to fight against level 25 or even level 26 Conferred Knights. Now that he had stepped into level 24, through the strengthening of the energies of all living things, not only had the range and prowess of his sword techniques increased tremendously, but his sword arts cultivation had also improved along with the progress of the Unparalleled Sword Intent – Apex.
Coupled with the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor, Terra Ingurgitation, and the Heaven's Volition Sword Intent, he was even more confident that he could defeat a level 27 Conferred Knight head-on.
