Everyone in the Celestial Cloud Fortress was dumbfounded. They either dropped to their knees or had their mouths agape as they looked at Fang Xingjian in the sky in a daze. It was as if they were looking at a legendary miracle.
"Hand over Lilia within one minute, or you'll die."
A thunderous voice rang out, bringing along strong gales that swept through the fortress. In an instant, countless items were sent flying, and many people were unable to open their eyes or stand steadily.
The people who had been discussing Fang Xingjian in the main hall earlier immediately rushed out. When they saw the situation, their countenances changed drastically.
The upper-class lady forced herself to shout, "Fang Xingjian, we weren't the ones who lost Lilia. Do you only know how to bully our Celestial Cloud Fortress?"
Fang Xingjian's cold gaze swept past the upper-class lady. Sword intents filled the air and struck the upper-class lady's consciousness. In that instant, it was as if she had been doused with cold water, causing her to drop to her knees, unable to say another word.
Another young man shouted, "Lord Sword Overlord, please listen to our explanation. Lilia had only accepted our invitation to come to the Celestial Cloud Fortress to have fun. We have no ill intentions. "However, when the Purple Robed Masters saw Lilia, they insisted on taking her in as their disciple and thus forcefully brought her away."
"Purple Robed Mages?" Fang Xingjian frowned. He had not expected that this group of people would be the ones to take action. Moreover, they wanted to take Lilia away.
Fang Xingjian asked, "Where did they go? Why are you guys in contact with the Purple Robed Mages? "
The young man quickly explained, "There was once a Purple Robed Mage in our clan. However, he didn't have much talent and came here to cultivate in seclusion. Some time ago, a Purple Robed Mage suddenly came and said that Lilia was fated with her. Thus, she took her away. "We don't know where that lady has gone, nor do we know how to contact her."
"Fate, is it Sudden Inspiration?" Fang Xingjian silently put the fortress back and once again returned to his original appearance. His long black robes fluttered like a spirit snake under the strong winds, covering half of his body.
He'd already used his Sword Intent and Sudden Inspiration to sense Lilia's location, but he hadn't been able to find her. He could only follow Zhou Xingwen and the others' information and find Youji first before finding this place, the place where Lilia had last disappeared.
At the next moment, with a single thought from Fang Xingjian, sword intents streaked across the air and darted into the bodies of everyone from the Celestial Cloud Fortress.
"I'll believe your words for now. Leave behind a strand of sword intent. Once I find out that you're hiding anything, I'll definitely exterminate your entire clan."
After saying this, Fang Xingjian's figure flashed and completely disappeared.
The people from the Celestial Cloud Castle were left behind, looking as if they had just lost their parents.
Fang Xingjian, on the other hand, had already broken through the atmosphere. His entire body was bathed in the golden sunlight.
'Even the Sudden Inspiration can't sense Lilia's location. Is it because the Sudden Inspiration of the tenth level of the mystical prints isn't something that one can cultivate and can only sense passively?'
Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed. 'Then I'll strive for tier four of the Divine level and truly grasp the Sudden Inspiration ability. I'll then find Lilia and have enough power to suppress the Empire.
'However, according to the records, to strive for the next tier of the Nine-Tiered Heavens and comprehend the Sudden Inspiration ability, I'll need to head to an illusory realm and comprehend the profoundness of the past and future. 'But based on my previous experience, it's probably a parallel world again. It'll probably take another half a month or even more than one month. Before I head there, I'll have to get rid of all threats in case something like this happens again. '
At the thought of this, Fang Xingjian let go of his mind and will, focusing all his attention on sensing with his Sudden Inspiration.
…
In an underground tomb at the extreme north of the Central Region …
The First Prince suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a hint of elation. "Who would have thought that I'd discovered Saint Adam's tomb?"
Ten years ago, the First Prince had unintentionally gone on an adventure and discovered Saint Adam's tomb. As the founder of the Ancient Path of Hell, he had left behind countless cultivation essences for the Ancient Path of Hell, allowing the First Prince to improve by leaps and bounds.
However, when he finally opened the coffin, he did not discover Saint Adam's remains. He only saw three drops of blood — three drops of Saint Adam's blood.
However, the First Prince did not dare to consume them. Saint Adam was the founder of the Ancient Path of Hell and was said to be a top-notch character at tier eight of the Divine level. How could the First Prince dare to consume the blood he had left behind?
The First Prince was afraid that if he were to consume it, he would be engulfed by Saint Adam's remnant consciousness and become a living Adam.
Despite this, the First Prince had improved by leaps and bounds over the past ten years by relying on the cultivation notes that Adam had left behind, becoming extremely powerful. However, the more he cultivated, the stronger he became. The more he understood how powerful Adam was, the more he did not dare to consume Adam's blood.
Finally, during the battle at the Hades Vault, under Fang Xingjian's all-out pressure, the First Prince came up with a solution.
He split his martial will into two, hiding one part while erasing the other part of his memories and heading to the Full Moon Shrine for battle.
If he were to win, he would be able to make use of the Full Moon Shrine to eliminate Fang Xingjian. If he were to lose, he would be able to make use of this opportunity to be reborn and temper his will.
Therefore, after the First Prince started cultivating, it was true that he did not remember the backup plan that he had left behind.
Then, through this method that was similar to faking his death, he was able to reconstruct himself from the ashes. As a result, his mental will was tempered at an unbelievable level.
In the end, with Shang's help, not only did he find back the other half of his martial will that he had split off, but he also integrated another drop of Adam's blood. His martial will's attribute broke through 2,000 points.
In the ancient tomb, the First Prince looked at the remaining two drops of blood, and his eyes were filled with excitement.
'Could it be that True Lord Qingshan really thinks that I only have one drop of Adam's blood? Or could it be that he and Father are restraining each other and are unwilling to care about me? ' The First Prince shook his head. 'It doesn't matter anymore. As long as I take these two drops of Adam's blood, my martial will will probably be able to break through 5,000 points or more. By then, I'll be able to strive for tier two or even tier three of the Divine level in a single stroke.'
At the thought of this, the First Prince's face was filled with agitation. He thought of how he had achieved great mastery in his martial arts, broken out of seclusion, killed Fang Xingjian, and even defeated his father and suppressed True Lord Qingshan.
However, at the next moment, a palm suddenly appeared in void space, grabbing the two drops of Adam's blood.
"No!" The First Prince let out an enraged bellow and pressed out fiercely with an Overturned Hell. The violent power shattered the entire ancient tomb into dust, but it was unable to do anything to that palm.
Amidst the earth-shattering impact, dust soared up into the sky, and two figures dashed up into the sky.
Looking at the black-robed Fang Xingjian who was standing barefooted, the First Prince gritted his teeth so hard that they almost shattered. He said each word clearly, "Fang … Xingjian …"
However, Fang Xingjian threw him an indifferent glance and said, "So that's how it is. It's really a little dangerous."
