Seeing the figure's appearance, a hint of surprise appeared on Fang Xingjian's face.
It was not because of the figure's identity. It was because Fang Xingjian's martial will had long since scanned the other party's identity. It was just a stone sculpture.
What astonished Fang Xingjian was that the stone sculpture had actually been carved in his appearance. The entire stone sculpture was exactly the current him. It had the same face, the same brows, and even the same head of black hair. It was dressed in black robes, barefooted, and sat cross-legged on the ground with its eyes closed.
What made Fang Xingjian even more surprised was that there was a sentence written in Chinese on the stone sculpture's chest.
"Formation Breaker Fang."
Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed unknowingly. It was clear that the other party had long since predicted his arrival.
What kind of ability was this? After so many years, he was able to predict his arrival in advance, and even his appearance was perfectly predicted. What kind of ability was this?
However, what was the other party's motive for doing this? To flaunt his ability to predict?
Fang Xingjian released his martial will abruptly, instantly scanning the space within a range of several kilometers. There were no abnormalities, and he then aimed his martial will toward the interior of the stone sculpture.
At first glance, the interior of the human body seemed to be just an ordinary stone sculpture. It looked no different from the surrounding stones.
However, Fang Xingjian revealed a strange expression.
It was unknown how long this stone sculpture had been on the surface of the Moon. Even the words in the surroundings had encountered all sorts of meteors, meteorites, and cosmic radiation. However, this stone sculpture appeared to be extremely lifelike and had not suffered any damage. This in itself was the greatest abnormality.
At the thought of this, Fang Xingjian's eyes suddenly narrowed, and the scanning scale of his martial will was magnified once again, reaching the nanometer level.
When striving for the Divine level, the scale of one's martial will would need to be able to keep on going deeper into the microscopic world to observe. This was something that Divine level experts greatly favored.
With just this deep observation, Fang Xingjian immediately noticed something different.
The stone texture of the entire stone sculpture was too uniform. Every inch of the stone texture was almost exactly the same. It was as if all the molecular and atomic structures were arranged in the same way.
"I see …"
Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed slightly, and the next moment, he went deeper again. This time, he went from the nanometer level to the picometer level.
Almost every inch of space had countless special points, and the positions of these points were slightly different from the other parts of the space.
They looked like tiny dots carved into the stone. Fang Xingjian looked at the densely packed dots inside the stone sculpture with a puzzled look on his face.
"These dots? Is there anything special about it? "
Fang Xingjian couldn't figure it out, so he went deeper again. This time, he went from picometers to femtometers. This time, Fang Xingjian was slightly stunned.
One had to know that 10 femtometers was almost the size of an atomic nucleus. At the femtometer-level of observation, almost every atomic nucleus seemed to be surrounded by a vast void. One could only see other atomic nuclei from a very, very far distance, just like the vacuum of the universe.
Under such circumstances, Fang Xingjian was still able to sense the existence of the singularity.
"These dots … are smaller than atomic nuclei? What are they? "
Fang Xingjian continued to go deeper, and the microscopic scale continued to magnify before him. However, the singularity continued to maintain its original size.
Even when Fang Xingjian's martial will reached its limits, the singularity still didn't change at all. It was still the same size, shining in void space like the stars in the universe.
However, Fang Xingjian could no longer go deeper. He had already reached the smallest limit of the spatial scale. If he were to go deeper, it would be the space-time domain, where time and space would merge into one.
Based on his experience in striving for the Divine level, it would be a passageway that led to countless other universes. Even with his current abilities, it would be impossible for him to pass through it. He would only die after depleting all his powers.
However, even after reaching the limits of the spatial scale, the singularity was still not the limit. What did this mean?
Fang Xingjian's gaze suddenly flickered, and he looked toward the point at the very bottom.
This singularity was 0.1 centimeters, or rather 0.101 centimeters, from the ground. If one were to go deeper, it would be 0.1011 centimeters.
As long as Fang Xingjian's observations continued to shrink, the height of the singularity would continue to be updated. When it reached the limits of the spatial scale, it would be a long string of numbers formed from 0's and 1's.
If one were to calculate it based on some human codes, this would be a sentence in Chinese.
The content of this sentence was also very simple at the beginning.
"What is light?"
Fang Xingjian blinked and sensed the densely-packed singularity in the stone sculpture's body. He sat down cross-legged and started to use his martial will to sense the many singularity points.
More and more data of the singularity points were detected, including the numbers of various distances. All of them were translated into sentences by Fang Xingjian one word at a time.
Very soon, Fang Xingjian discovered that this was a set of sword technique's principles.
Then, very soon, Fang Xingjian discovered that this set of sword technique was actually somewhat similar to his Light Pursuit Sword.
Many profound principles and exquisite sword intents were translated by Fang Xingjian, causing Fang Xingjian to become increasingly engrossed in this set of sword technique.
Three days and three nights later, Fang Xingjian's eyes were tightly shut. The stone sculpture before him had already turned into dust and scattered on the moon's surface.
Fang Xingjian finally understood what this set of sword technique was.
'My Infiltrating Void brings in the profoundness of gravity, the All-Conquering sword brings in the profoundness of electromagnetic forces, and the Light Pursuit Sword represents the profoundness of gravity, electromagnetic forces, and strong interaction forces.'
Fang Xingjian let out a breath. To think that this set of sword technique hidden in the stone sculpture described the profoundness of electromagnetic forces, gravity, and strong interaction forces. This allowed Fang Xingjian to have a deeper understanding toward his Light Pursuit Sword.
'Gravity, electromagnetic forces, and strong interaction forces are all forces that propagate at light speed in the universe. They are also the only three out of the four fundamental forces that propagate at light speed. 'These three forces propagate through gravitons, gluons, and photons. However, these three great propagating mediums themselves have no mass.
'And this is the profoundness of the Light Pursuit Sword.'
At the next moment, Fang Xingjian got up abruptly and tapped out with his sword. The Light Pursuit Sword suddenly exploded, and streams of sword light suddenly burst out from the surface of Fang Xingjian's body. However, the sword light that gushed out this time around far surpassed the millions of sword light he had in the past. The sword light shone down like sunlight, and millions upon millions of sword light shot out explosively, plowing through the ground within a range of several hundred lis.
This was like sunlight shining down on Earth. However, each beam of sunlight had a prowess that could slash people like sword light. This was too terrifying, increasing the prowess of the Light Pursuit Sword by over a hundred times.
Right now, the mass of each slash of the Light Pursuit Sword was zero, and it propagated through massless mediums like gravitons, gluons, and photons. Therefore, each slash was at light speed, leaving behind only pure destructive prowess. It could affect both the macroscopic and microscopic scales at the same time.
Sensing the destructive prowess of the sword technique, Fang Xingjian withdrew the Light Pursuit sword intent abruptly into his body.
Looking at the moon under his feet, Fang Xingjian let out a slight sigh. He had not expected that he would be able to raise the profoundness of the Light Pursuit Sword even further this time around. He had integrated the four fundamental forces — gravity, electromagnetic, and strong interaction forces — into the Light Pursuit Sword.
