Chapter 68: Return to the Modern Era

The Xiehu Shishen Great Art is a supreme technique for risking one's life at the brink of death and rebirth.

It is a divine art that gradually burns talent, lifespan, and sanity.

Since its creation, no one has used such a life-risking method as frequently as Fang Can.

Although it maximizes combat power, the side effects are numerous.

Fang Can is the sole exception because his talent grew through the "Adversity Turns to Fortune" effect, so he fears no burning.

As for lifespan, he is supported by the Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body and the Unyielding Will double buffs; Fang Can now even doubts whether he can die of old age through normal means.

But apart from physical effects, Fang Can feels his personality has also been influenced by the technique, becoming increasingly bloodthirsty.

Although he has not transcended the bounds of reason, subconsciously, his choices lean toward directions where blood flows like a river.

Just now, if Ye Hua had not begged for mercy, he might have almost punched the opponent's head to explode.

Removing the eye mask, looking at the heavily injured martial artists before him who would likely need a month or two to recover, Fang Can subconsciously clenched his fist.

Around him, as his victory was announced, the believers' shouts rose like mountains and seas, wave after wave.

Ignoring the noisy sounds, Fang Can said to a believer nearby: "Bandage these people; we will cover their medical expenses for this period."

After speaking, he calmly walked down the arena, and a young girl immediately rushed forward to meet him.

'Is your brain broken? Why did you stab yourself with several swords when things were fine?' Ye Qingshi looked at Fang Can's chest area and subconsciously frowned.

On Fang Can's chest, the penetrating wounds that had already stopped bleeding began to ooze again due to continuous excessive exertion.

"It doesn't matter; my recovery ability is very strong. Just three holes and six wounds is nothing," Fang Can waved his hand.

Now, the only things that could be called fatal injuries are destruction of the heart or the brain.

"Alright, come with me to my room; I have medicinal powder in there." Ye Qingshi spoke and directly dragged Fang Can back to her room.

Along the way, looking at the young girl's profile, Fang Can carefully sensed: 'The "Adversity Turns to Fortune" bonus... has disappeared. Is it because Yuan Dang has been imprisoned by me and no longer poses a threat?'

The young girl did not notice Fang Can's thoughts and continued to chatter all the way:

"I warn you, you cannot die. If you die, this Young Lady will be forced by my father to guard your tomb for a lifetime."

"This Young Lady is still young; I cannot become a living widow for you so early."

Listening to the young girl's instructions all the way, within just a few minutes under the sun's rays, Fang Can's chest no longer bled, and the oozing wounds closed.

At this moment, he was thinking: since the young girl before him is now useless, should he distance himself from her?

"Hey, what are you staring at?" Seeing the dazed Fang Can, Ye Qingshi couldn't help but scold: "Take off your shirt yourself; otherwise, how can I apply medicine for you?"

"Hmm, trouble you," Fang Can obediently exposed his chest for the other to apply medicine to his wounds.

After applying golden wound medicine to the wounds, the young girl actively leaned in.

Seeing Fang Can's puzzled gaze, she said speechlessly: "Go cultivate. Didn't you ask me to accompany you in cultivation?"

"Good." Fang Can silently nodded, closed his eyes to cultivate again, and had already found an answer to his earlier thoughts: there is no need.

He is not some ignorant youth; of course, he understands that once an ancient woman has become this intimate with him, she will naturally remain faithful to him for life.

Moreover, since he is already familiar with Ye Qingshi, there is no great need to switch to someone else next.

Finally, the young girl is very beautiful; having her by his side is pleasing to the eye, and it is not too late to eat the forbidden fruit whenever he gets hungry.

Having simply made the decision, Fang Can let Ye Qingshi embrace him, closed his eyes again, and began to cultivate.

As the cells in his body vibrated bit by bit, centered on the heart, cells possessing neuron traits began to infect the surroundings bit by bit, allowing nearby cells to also possess thinking abilities.

In Fang Can's understanding, the so-called Heart Image is emitted by the brain.

And the brain's weight accounts for only about 2% to 3% of the entire body.

Then, if the entire body could be a thinking brain, Fang Can's Heart Image mana bar would probably be 30 to 50 times longer than that of a martial artist of the same realm.

By then, his Heart Image would likely have no equal under the Road to Heaven; even facing a group attack, he would not need to rely solely on the Rock Observation for defense but could take the initiative to attack.

With these thoughts, Fang Can's consciousness gradually entered meditation, while beside him, Ye Qingshi held him, a hint of understanding in her expression.

'As expected; this fellow's body has a feeling that makes people want to indulge.'

Ye Qingshi judged that she had felt something very wrong this morning.

Now that she has tried it, it is indeed extraordinary; merely initial contact made her feel her body go soft.

'Number one Cauldron; not only is he a lecher, but his body has also developed in a very vulgar way.' She spat lightly in her heart.

Unaware of the young girl's thoughts, Fang Can was immersed in cultivation, and time gradually passed step by step within the cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed; during this time, more and more martial artists wanted to challenge him, followed by the growth of the believer group.

Every day, Fang Can could feel his body strengthening in all aspects at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Inside the Blazing Sun Martial Hall, Fang Can stood on the ground, his whole body like a green pine, rooted into the earth.

Around him, several martial artists of the Profound Gate Third Layer continuously struck his body.

But no matter how hard they tried, even with veins bulging all over their bodies from exertion, they could not leave any wounds on Fang Can's skin through blunt force.

After these ten days of hard training, Fang Can's Tiger-Subduing Dragon-Suppressing Golden Body has entered the Transformation Realm; under the vibration force, even if he lets martial artists of the Profound Gate Third Layer exert their full strength, he cannot be injured.

The more he cultivates, the more Fang Can wants to thank the Tiger Fiery Sect Master, the number one supporter, for his selfless contribution.

Truly a veteran of the second layer of the Road to Heaven; the two techniques given are absolutely the best hidden treasures for shedding the mortal body.

Compared to ordinary Iron Shirt and Golden Bell Shield, this technique has almost no weak points on the skin surface.

To break through, one can only attack the mouth or the lower abdomen, or break it with pure brute force.

After these ten days of hard training, Fang Can can already fight ordinary martial artists of the Profound Gate Ninth Layer in his normal state without relying on the Xiehu Shishen.

"Hey, A-Can, mealtime."

In the distance, Ye Qingshi ran over waving her hand, instructing Fang Can to eat, while the disciples around them sensibly stopped.

"Hmm, got it."

Looking at the young girl before him, Fang Can nodded.

Just as he was about to step forward, he felt the world before him twist completely into a tangle.

This familiar scene made Fang Can's expression freeze; he immediately realized what had happened.

In the next instant, when he came to his senses, a breathtakingly beautiful girl stood before him, no less stunning than Ye Qingshi.

Jiang Ningan was staring blankly at Fang Can's current form, murmuring:

"You have already reached the sixth layer of the Profound Gate...?"
