Chapter 315: Transcendent (Extra update seeking subscriptions)

Martial Artist Center.

Inside the room.

Fang Xing opened the door and saw a clamor outside: "This is... what happened?"

"I heard there was a homicide case last night, and they are searching the whole city."

A passing Ming Jin martial artist explained.

They are all martial artists, enjoying the food and accommodation services of the Martial Artist Center, and this one happened to live next door.

"Did a big shot die?"

Fang Xing looked surprised.

"Didn't say... it should be some incredible big shot."

This martial artist was also a bit puzzled.

In the Great Xia New Calendar, the Boundary Land expanded, and too many people died. Even in the Third Defense City, many people had died not long ago.

How big a shot must one be to achieve this effect?

Fang Xing actually knew in his heart that the person who died was not important; who was lured out was the most important.

Just as he was about to go eat breakfast, two martial artists in uniforms had already come to him: "Li Ying?"

"It's me."

Fang Xing nodded: "What can I do for you two?"

"Zhao Zhao Chuntai died last night, do you know?"

After the female martial artist finished speaking, she stared fixedly at Fang Xing's expression.

"Zhao Zhao Chuntai? Dead... haha, good death!"

Fang Xing laughed loudly: "Good death, too good."

"What did you say?" The young man next to the female martial artist was immediately furious.

They had already investigated last night, and the one who killed Zhao Zhao Chuntai was a Hua Jin peak expert!

As for the matter of having broken through to Martial Arts Grandmaster, or even easily defeating a Martial Arts Master, even they didn't have the authority to know.

Not to mention, the perpetrator was suspected to be an alien, which was top secret.

Therefore, according to the routine investigation of revenge, the first one was definitely to find Zhao Zhao Chuntai's enemies.

It's just that 'Li Ying' had average cultivation before, and only certified as an An Jin expert yesterday, and had nothing to do with Hua Jin peak.

Even so, seeing this attitude of cheering loudly upon hearing the news of death, it still made them very angry.

"Zhao Zhao Chuntai's sister has a grudge against me, so it's a good thing he died, why can't I be happy?"

Fang Xing asked back.

"Very good, you admitted it, then what were you doing last night? Do you dare to go for another test?"

The young man said immediately.

"I was sleeping last night, as for whether I dare or not? Either you force me to go, or I definitely won't agree!"

Fang Xing sneered: "Do you think I'm a fool? Still volunteering for an inspection... this kind of thing, it should be you finding evidence to accuse me, not me proving my innocence..."

Once things get to the point of needing to prove innocence, they are often at a disadvantage.

After all, no one is perfect. If you start a comprehensive inspection, there will always be mistakes and handles, and then they will be infinitely magnified.

In the end, even if the matter to be investigated is fine, the person's reputation is ruined, so proving innocence is all for fools!

Fang Xing had only one attitude: either find evidence to arrest him, and then he would resist arrest.

Or just go do whatever you need to do.

"Alright, we know, thank you for your cooperation."

The female martial artist saw Feng Jinshui coming over, immediately pulled her partner, and walked out of the restaurant.

"Lulu, why?"

The male martial artist was furious immediately.

"Seeing him so confident, maybe it really has nothing to do with him, and martial artists have privileges and cannot be imprisoned without guilt..."

Lulu shook her head, and a trace of doubt appeared on her face again: "I always feel that the reaction above to this case is very strange... it seems they already know who the murderer is, so we don't need to do too much, just investigate as a routine."

Simply put, everyone is earning a salary, why risk your life.

"Sigh, I'm just feeling a bit of rabbit dying and fox grieving..."

The young man sighed.

……

Fang Xing's psychological quality was excellent, and he fooled Feng Jinshui a few words before returning to the room.

After confirming that there was no surveillance, he took out the secret manual obtained from Zhang Zhang Daoxuan and began to read it carefully.

"Law profound meaning... can you come into contact with it after True Strength?"

"Even if, it's just a little bit of fur..."

"The so-called True Strength is just the activation of strength to the extreme..."

……

Three days later.

Fang Xing sat cross-legged, strands of strength surging all over his body, having a bit of a feeling of being one.

He stretched out his right hand, and as his fingers grabbed, the air actually made a hiss, as if even space had been grabbed and exploded.

Even the cyan-black luster on his fingers, along with the operation of An Jin, gradually spread all over his body, making his whole body look like he was wearing an iron suit.

"To practice Eagle Claw Art, you must practice 'Iron Finger Zen' as a supplement... otherwise your fingers will be ruined sooner or later."

"Iron Finger Zen is a hard skill, mainly practicing the ten fingers of both hands... but with a little modification, it can also temper the whole body."

Hua Jin strength is about the same as Unpolished Jade and Primordial.

Especially that kind of 'mixed origin as one' meaning, Fang Xing had grasped it long ago.

After completely digesting the blood and Qi essence of the Level 3 fierce beast, his strength naturally stepped into Hua Jin!

"Hua Jin... the strength of the whole body is like one. When operating hard skills, I'm afraid even swords can't hurt me..."

Fang Xing looked at his cyan-black skin when he was practicing, and nodded: "Iron Finger Zen has changed, now it can be called 'Iron Cloth Shirt'!"

With the hard skill defense of the Iron Cloth Shirt, plus the strength unloading of Hua Jin, even if he met that Level 3 saber-toothed black tiger again, Fang Xing had the confidence not to use Martial Way Will to crush it, but to fight fairly and kill it in one battle!

"As for the subsequent strength activation... I really don't understand it very well, I must have a sample before I can innovate."

Fang Xing suddenly thought of 'Flipping River Dragon' Xu Xu Bianjiao.

Since Feng Jinshui said he wanted to introduce this Martial Arts Grandmaster to him, the other party's residence must be nearby.

"But just rushing to the door like this, it seems a bit inappropriate, right?"

Fang Xing thought for a moment, his figure flashed, and he disappeared into the vast night.

……

Zhao Zhao Chuntai walked out of the door and let out a long breath.

He felt that today was truly his most tiring day.

Not only did he have to deal with many outsiders, but also his own hysterical sister and niece.

'Sigh... my sister still doesn't understand anything.'

"Wang Xiner too, usually she has a rebellious girl image who is not afraid of anything, but when she was slightly scared, she didn't do anything for real, and her tears and snot came down... such psychological quality is not good."

Thinking of the tricks he had done, Zhao Zhao Chuntai secretly let go of his heart.

Li Ying's accusation, in fact, the second one about harming a martial artist is the most fatal, but it is also the easiest to wash away.

After all, Li Ying is an An Jin martial artist, how could a door stop him?

If it were the ordinary teenager before, he might have died.

'So the second one is completely nonsense, as for the first one about embezzling inheritance... this can't be washed, but in order to take care of his nephew, there is no other way...'

'As long as they are smart enough and bite the scripts I taught them, there will be no big deal.'

'What I need to be careful about is Li Ying's private revenge.'

'What two stupid women, such a talented martial artist, could have become a good relative of our Zhao family, the pillar of the sky in the future, but they ruined it... now it's an enemy, we must strike first!'

Zhao Zhao Chuntai sighed, but there was no way, people couldn't choose what they were born into.

Even if he knew his sister was very pit-like, he could only bear it.

'Next... should I move them to another city.'

Just as he was thinking, in the sky, a black shadow seemed to flash.

It was a human figure, with arms spread out, like a night owl, descending from the sky!

"Idiot!"

Although Zhao Zhao Chuntai was only a Ming Jin martial artist, he was quick-eyed and quick-handed.

Seeing the figure, he reached into his waist, and a fire gun appeared in his hand, firing a handful of lead bullets.

Bang!!

Due to the expansion of the Boundary Land to the Third Defense City, various technological products in the city would gradually become obsolete.

Instead, the more primitive black powder fire gun could barely be used.

And beyond seven steps, the gun is fast!

Within seven steps, the gun is accurate and fast!

Especially this kind of martial artist coming from the sky, it is simply a living target!

Bang, bang!

The lead bullets hit the attacker, actually making the sound of gold and iron clashing, the other party looked like he was wearing a layer of fish-scale armor, shook lightly, and shook off a large number of lead bullets to the surroundings.

"Shaking Scale Strength? You are a Hua Jin expert?!"

Zhao Zhao Chuntai's pupils expanded instantly, and then he saw a cyan-black finger extend and point lightly on his forehead!

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 316 =====

Fang Xing looked at his palm, a trace of joy appearing on his face.

With his Martial Saint-level vision and experience, his incomparably formidable willpower, and a bit of talent in comprehension.

After spending half a month, he finally managed to understand the first few pages of the metal secret manual.

The Profound Meaning of Fire, finally entered!

"This newly comprehended Profound Meaning of Fire can be named 'Ignition Technique' or 'Burst'! Its effect can make True Energy attach a layer of scorching power, and the power surges by about thirty-three times... This kind of power is already not much different from a Martial Dao Jin Dan expert making a move."

"But this body of mine seems to still be a Martial Dao Grandmaster..."

"No... what's even more terrifying is that this kind of amplification should be based on my own base power."

"In other words, if Li Ying breaks through to above Grandmaster, the power of his current moves will be thirty-three times the base value of above Grandmaster!"

"Compared to the 'Great Jin Gang Prajna Divine Power' I once practiced, it's not even fit to carry its shoes... What kind of cosmic inheritance is this? To be so profound?"

Just as Fang Xing's heart was surging with emotion, and the entire Third Defense City was bustling because of this huge commotion.

An unknown space.

A simple and unadorned gray-white stone palace stood majestic and solemn, floating amidst a patch of gray mist.

In the center of the stone palace was a pool, and above the pool floated a model of the Great Xia planet.

At this moment, a crimson dot of light suddenly flickered on the model.

It continuously magnified, gradually revealing the outline of the Third Defense City, and the location of the light dot was right inside the dormitory of the Warrior Center!

"Finally..."

A gray-robed person saw this scene, his tone carrying a trace of excitement.

He looked at 'Li Ying', who was sitting cross-legged inside the dormitory, and suddenly opened his large hand.

"Hmm?"

Inside the room, Fang Xing suddenly felt a sense of horror rising throughout his entire body!

Following that, he felt the world go black before his eyes, and a bout of dizziness ensued.

"This is... a teleportation array? A similar kind of spatial transfer?"

His heart was startled, but the expression on his face remained unchanged as he looked around.

As far as his eyes could see, he only saw a gray-white stone palace.

Stone pillars rose up to support the sky, appearing incomparably magnificent, and the various blade and sword marks upon them carried a sense of mottled age and vicissitudes.

"I have waited for 372 epochs, finally waiting for a genius who can enter the Profound Meaning before the age of 20..."

A gray-robed person appeared before Fang Xing.

Fang Xing looked at his face, but could only see a patch of bottomless darkness.

"372 epochs, Great Xia takes 100 years as one epoch, so that's 37,200 years?"

Fang Xing remained calm in the face of change; after all, even if he died, it would be Li Ying who died, which was none of his business.

What's more... the time for his return was almost up.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so reckless; after comprehending a trace of the Profound Meaning of Fire, he immediately couldn't wait to test the move, not fearing exposure.

"Yes... I have been monitoring this planet. As long as there is a fluctuation of the power of Profound Meaning, I will immediately check and guide... It's a pity, for over thirty thousand years, no one has been able to satisfy my requirements, until your appearance..."

The gray-robed person appeared somewhat excited.

Fang Xing felt a sense of awe in his heart, knowing he had encountered an unimaginably powerful expert.

Although Li Ying was not his true body, being able to spatially shift a Fifth Realm professional was unimaginable even in the main universe's Lanxing Federation!

After all, the Federation's spatial technology was very weak!

According to Fang Xing's speculation, only that space-ability Martial God from the Nine Swords Academy could achieve this!

"Then, this senior... what is the matter with looking for me?"

Fang Xing recovered his mood, feeling that he was about to come into contact with the origin secret of this world, and asked directly.

In his heart, he was even more surging with emotion.

'I originally thought it was just an ordinary little world, I didn't expect so many surprises...'

Before, Fang Xing felt that being able to comprehend and take away that trace of the Profound Meaning of Fire was already worth more than the cost.

He didn't expect there to be unexpected surprises!

"My purpose is to find a successor..."

The gray-robed person said: "Because... I am already dead. What remains here is only a segment of my willpower, or rather, a projection, an obsession, maintained by a treasure... Before I die, I want to take in a student to do a few things for me."

There is never any goodness without reason in this world.

Why do those experts want to take apprentices? Naturally, they have requests of others!

Otherwise, with their infinite lifespan and formidable power... why not keep it to themselves, instead of teaching apprentices to surpass them?

Even high-tech enterprises know how to build barriers, blockade technology, and prevent leaks.

"What things?"

Fang Xing had long been mentally prepared and asked.

"The day your strength achieves success, take revenge for me!"

The gray-robed person looked at Fang Xing, seeing that his expression had not the slightest fluctuation, and continued: "Then... if one day, you can reach that Peak Realm, resurrect me!"

"Resurrect?"

Fang Xing was somewhat surprised. In the main universe, although extraterrestrial Extraterrestrial Xieshen can do this kind of thing, it seems they can only resurrect themselves, and human experts have no means of resurrection.

"You will never be able to imagine the strength of the peak experts in this universe... For them, fishing people out of the river of time is not a particularly difficult thing... What is truly difficult is transcendence!"

The gray-robed person's tone carried a trace of emotion: "The planet you are on is just an indigenous planet, on which there is a primary cosmic civilization... Above primary cosmic civilization, there are intermediate cosmic civilizations, advanced cosmic civilizations..."

"And the true experts in the universe are only born among peak cosmic civilizations... Even so, among those peak cosmic civilizations, there has never appeared a 'Transcendent'! The so-called transcendence... is to transcend everything, transcend this universe, transcend all shackles and cages!"
