Fang Xingjian's sword intents soared into the sky as well, clashing against the nine light pillars and the ten streams of will emitted by the dark cloud.
In that instant, countless verbal exchanges were completed.
"Fang Xingjian, do you think that we'll send ourselves to your doorstep one by one for you to take care of?"
"Now that we know how amazing you are, how can we possibly give you the chance to grow?"
"We noticed you the moment you entered the valley."
"This time around, all ten of us Elders are here. Prepare to die!"
Fang Xingjian said calmly, "You guys knew long ago that I was coming?"
"Your subordinates are too useless. They made such a big fuss just to look for Origin Essence Stones. If we still didn't know that you were coming, wouldn't we all be dead?"
"Moreover, we won't give you the chance to take us down one by one. A genius like you is already a great threat to our Terrene Shrine. Today, we're going to suppress you completely."
"Hahahaha, Fang Xingjian, your physical body is so powerful. If we modify him into a slave warrior, your name will definitely continue to spread throughout the world."
The clash of wills was completed in an instant, and there seemed to be a sound of rolling thunder ringing out in void space.
It was clear that the Terrene Shrine's intelligence network was not weak at all. This made sense. Black magic that could carry out various physical modifications would naturally have all sorts of extraordinary intelligence channels.
When they found out that Fang Xingjian was collecting Origin Essence Stones, they had taken precautions. Moreover, when Fang Xingjian had first entered the valley, they had not alerted Fang Xingjian at all. They had not even informed anyone who had come looking for trouble with Fang Xingjian.
It was only until now that they had suddenly taken action that they had clearly thought that they were fully prepared.
Fang Xingjian was clearly unwilling to wait for the ten Elders to complete their ambush. With a dash, he dashed toward the dark cloud in the sky.
With this dash, many tentacles formed from gray energy darted out from void space, coiling toward Fang Xingjian.
However, these were not the physical bodies of living creatures. They were purely energy tentacles activated by black magic. Fang Xingjian, who was immune to black magic, could not care about them at all. His body charged forward, shaking all the energy tentacles into dust.
Fang Xingjian then punched out. Light rays distorted and space trembled, turning into an endless force that struck toward the dark cloud in the sky.
The dark cloud face let out an astonished cry, as if it had not expected Fang Xingjian to be so ferocious. It quickly opened its mouth and let out a furious bellow. Streams of plasma came smashing down like a waterfall, turning into a blue shock wave that wanted to engulf Fang Xingjian.
However, Fang Xingjian neither dodged nor gave way. He continued to smash out with his fist, and the violent power caused the plasma shock waves to flow in reverse. With a rumble, Fang Xingjian collided with the dark clouds, shattering the big face and scattering the dark clouds.
When the dark clouds were dispersed, a myriad of agonizing cries rang out. It turned out that the dark clouds were not really dark clouds, but a sea of bugs formed from countless bugs that were the size of fingernails. Fang Xingjian focused his attention and saw that each of the bugs had a human head, releasing all sorts of howls, cries, and agonizing cries. They were clearly bugs that had been refined using some kind of evil arts.
Now that the sea of insects had been scattered with a single strike, the resentment they emitted surged forth. However, it was once again shattered by Fang Xingjian's sword intent.
The sea of bugs and the overwhelming resentment were dispersed by Fang Xingjian with a single attack, immediately revealing an emaciated old man with white hair. He was the Terrene Shrine's Great Elder, the strongest amongst the ten great Elders — the Bug King.
Seeing how ferocious Fang Xingjian was, the Bug King clearly felt his scalp go numb. A series of high-speed incantations rang out in the void, and at the next moment, his body disintegrated into millions of flying insects. Each flying insect grew rapidly, and like flying dragons, they attacked Fang Xingjian.
Each of these flying insects, which were the size of a cow's head, had iron wings and claws that could tear steel plates apart. The venom in their bodies could poison a level 25 Conferred Knight to death. They were extremely vicious.
However, faced with this sea of flying dragons, Fang Xingjian merely punched out again. The air distorted into a sphere, and a terrifying power exploded the physical particles. The high temperature instantly swept through the bugs, burning them into ashes.
Violent sword intents soared into the air, crushing the consciousness of the several tens of flying insects that were trying to escape. The sword intents also contained extremely violent and murderous thoughts.
"Where's the World Annihilation Heavenly Lord? Where is he? He's not coming out. Do you think that a bunch of clowns like you who only know how to play tricks will be able to ambush me? "
In that instant, violent sword intents wreaked havoc in all directions. Fang Xingjian just stood there in void space, as if he was not worried about the Terrene Shrine's ambush at all.
Looking at Fang Xingjian who was in the sky, the people in the group were all astonished, including Sally. They were all astonished to see Fang Xingjian defeat the Bug King with a single sword attack.
Sally thought, 'To think that it's Fang Xingjian? What powerful abilities. This power... This power is even more amazing than what the rumors say? Although he was very powerful the last time we met, his battle prowess was only about the same as General Allen's. To think that he's so powerful now... How on earth did he do it? I thought that the rumors about him were all exaggerated. To think that the rumors made him look weak. '
The two young men were also in a daze. They had not expected that a Mage sent by the Terrene Shrine to capture slaves would be the world famous Fang Xingjian, the top expert of the younger generation. He had even defeated the Terrene Shrine's Grand Elder, the Bug King, with just two or three attacks.
This was like an earthworm turning around and transforming into a divine dragon. The contrast was too astonishing.
However, the battle clearly did not end so quickly. The Bug King's voice rang out in the sky once again, drifting in all directions as if it existed everywhere.
"Hehehehe, Fang Xingjian, of course we know your abilities. How can we not think highly of you? This time around, it's not just us ten Elders who have taken action."
As they spoke, the earth trembled, and the entire valley changed once again. The rock strata at the bottom of the valley rose up, turning into a huge stone giant amidst everyone's astonished cries.
The stone giant had a height of over 500 meters and could be said to be so tall that it reached the clouds. The group of slaves from earlier was on its huge palm, and just its palm alone had the area of a small town.
Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed. "You're the last genius that the Terrene Shrine has been nurturing over the past few years, the extremely mysterious Ghost King who has never appeared before? To think that your entire body has turned into a base? "It's no wonder that no one knows about you. They don't even know what you look like."
It turned out that the Terrene Shrine's headquarters was in the Ghost King's body. Most of the time, it was hidden underground, with a small portion exposed on the surface. It turned into various mountains, valleys, and mounds that moved about unpredictably, making it impossible for anyone to find out where the Terrene Shrine's headquarters was.
Loud buzzing sounds rang out from the stone giant's body. "That's right, Fang Xingjian. My body has merged with the flesh and blood of 3,600 types of gods and demons from beyond the heavens. In the entire world, as long as they haven't attained a breakthrough to the Divine level, no human will be able to surpass me in terms of physical body."
With that, he opened up one of his hands and smashed out toward Fang Xingjian like an island. It was as if the entire sky had collapsed, and a stretch of darkness came encompassing down.
