Fang Xingjian frowned, yet he slowly savored the aftertaste from the waves. He thought, 'It seems like this demonic figure has already broken out from the confinement. He has no reason, thoughts, or even memories. This mind demon... To think that it's just a hint of repercussive waves from thoughts... ?'
Looking at the countless corpses in the crypt, Fang Xingjian could not help but think of the words 'remarkable abilities'. To be able to create such a terrifying scene from just leaving a hint of remnant thoughts behind... If this mind demon were to break out from the seal, there was probably no one in the entire Eastern Sand Region who would be able to stop it. It would be as if a natural disaster has fallen.
'A string of thought alone is enough to bring chaos to the world?'
The Plenary Foundation Septet's abilities seemed to be greater than his earlier estimations.
...
Concurrently, in a small world that was independent from Miracle World, a priest suddenly opened his eyes.
"Fatty, my mind demon has been wiped out."
This fat priest had the appearance of a fish head and human body, like the legendary half-fish half-human. He had big eyes that gleamed like pearls, and he wore priest robes, giving off an indescribably preposterous and strange feeling.
Just as he said this, hints of black Qi appeared in the surroundings. The black Qi formed a blurry figure of the fat priest and said, "Oh? Who found out about the matter in the forbidden grounds?"
The fish priest frowned slightly, put his fingers together, and said, "There's an expert who performed a skill with means that surpass space-time. I can't tell from my divination. That mind demon I left behind has no intellect. Yet it traversed between two worlds and is unable to send back information anymore."
"As expected, there really is an expert?" The fat priest said. Then he fell silent for a moment before continuing, "Since that's the case, it won't be good for us to be exposed. Get the others to retrieve their setups from the forbidden grounds."
The fat priest was very clear on Yu Zi's capabilities. Yu Zi was originally a ferocious beast that had been kept by an expert from a demonic sect. He had the remarkable ability of turning into a mind demon that had neither shape or form.
After reaching tier six of the Divine level, he had spent great effort in cultivating the demonic sect's Heavenly Demon Shapeshifting Art, allowing him to be an existence that was between existing and non-existing. Consequently, after he split out a part of his mind demon, his senses of the unpredictable had become especially accurate.
If even he was unable to sense anything, then it meant that the enemy's means had already surpassed the limitations of space-time. They would have to be an existence at tier six of the Divine level or higher.
Priest Yu said coldly, "Don't we have to get rid of him? Since he has discovered that something is wrong in one of the forbidden grounds, he'll definitely check out the remaining forbidden grounds. We can take the opportunity to set up traps and kill him.
"It has only been less than two years since the world's metamorphosis started. Even if there are existences who are at tier six of the Divine level or higher, there won't be more than five of them."
The fat priest furrowed his brows and thought about it for a while before shaking his head and saying, "That's not suitable. The other party has broken your mind demon and is definitely aware of how strong your mind demon is. If he continues to explore the forbidden grounds, he'll definitely be on his guard and won't send his actual form there.
"And at our levels, it's meaningless for someone to kill one or two of our clones or demonic intents.
"The right way for us to do this is to go into full concealment and release the Crown Prince at the Divine Treasures Meeting."
Hearing the mention of the Crown Prince, a hint of admiration flashed in Priest Yu's eyes."That's right. If His Highness can break out from the confinement, it'll be an easy feat for us to flatten this world.
"It's obnoxious how Pope Ye Bei and Saint Adam set up such a vicious formation. Otherwise, with the Crown Prince's remarkable abilities, he would have already escaped long ago before we did."
...
Elsewhere, after breaking Yu Zi's mind demon, Fang Xingjian grabbed Maria and the other two young men and left the crypt. He then inquired in detail about what they had encountered in the crypt.
After hearing their description, Fang Xingjian nodded and thought, 'It's as I expected. Someone was feeding this demonic figure from the outside, guiding people on the outside to break the seal.
'Is this person one of the Plenary Foundation Septet or is someone helping them?
'I wiped out this mind demon earlier, so they might have already noticed my existence. ' All sorts of thoughts flashed through Fang Xingjian's gaze, and another six clones darted out from his body. They flew up into the sky, toward the other six forbidden grounds.
Although the other party might have noticed his earlier actions and all Plenary Foundation Septet might even have broken loose, Fang Xingjian still had to ascertain the situation in the various forbidden grounds.
'There's also the Divine Treasures Meeting. Back then, the Plenary Foundation Septet came to Miracle World in search of the Divine Sun Emperor's treasures. Is this Divine Treasures Meeting also related to them as well?'
Just as he was pondering over this, the other six clones quickly arrived in the remaining six forbidden grounds respectively at light speed.
The two young men before Fang Xingjian suddenly knelt down on the ground, shouting, "Lord Sword Overlord, please take us in as your disciples." As they stared at Fang Xingjian, their gazes were filled with fervent and anticipation.
The Sword Overlord was the strongest person in the southern regions of the world, showing faint signs of being on par with the three great Saints in the north. If they could become his disciples, their future would be smooth-sailing. They might not just be able to become Conferred Knights but also possibly Demigods or even reach the Divine level.
However, Fang Xingjian only threw them a cold glance."You've violated orders and barged into the forbidden grounds. You're already lucky to be saved by me, yet you still want me to be your teacher? What atrocity."
The two of them were shocked after brushed by Fang Xingjian's gaze, feeling a great sense of terror plunging down from the sky. They trembled uncontrollably and started to flee after letting out cries.
"Unpromising." Fang Xingjian raised his head and looked toward the pale-faced Maria who was clenching her teeth tightly. Despite the hint of terrifying pressure from his Heart Sword Path, she still managed to hang on and not flee.
Fang Xingjian looked at her anticipating gaze and said calmly, "You do show a little potential." He sensed with his Sudden Inspiration that the connection between them had not disappeared entirely. So, he gave it some thought and then sent a stream of sword light gushing into her consciousness.
"If you can reach the maximum level for this set of Prodigious Demolition Sword Physique within three months, come look for me in the Imperial Capital."
...
In a pure white city that was situated in the north.
All the buildings in the entire city were either covered in white paint or built from white marble. It made the entire city seem as if it was emitting a brilliant white glow under the sunlight, sending out a sacred aura.
This city was one of the sacred cities belonging to the Church of Universal Truth—Augus City.
This was also where the Church of Universal Truth's scripture was located. Countless believers would come to offer their worship. It was also the Immortality Saint's headquarters.
Everyday, there would be many believers discussing about the religious doctrines, studying history, and interpreting God of Universal Truth's miraculous creeds.
Right now, the Immortality Saint was seated cross-legged in an ordinary room. The White Emperor Zenith Sword floated quietly in front of him, and occasionally, there would be runes transmitting between the two.
"How is it, Ulpian? Are you able to cultivate divine arts?"
The Immortality Saint asked with some anticipation.
Ulpian's voice rang out from the White Emperor Zenith Sword, "Do you think that I'll believe in the God of Universal Truth?"
At the thought of how Ulpian had a large part of his powers and will engulfed by the God of Universal Truth, the Immortality Saint smiled and shrugged."Don't be bearing grudges."
Ulpian continued, "Divine arts, sorcery... All these are just powers that others bestow upon you. If you wish to reach real heights and even break through the limitations of the Divine level, you should use less of these stuff."
The Immortality Saint asked curiously, "Then does that mean you're cultivating martial arts? How's your cultivation? Do you want me to bring you to the Sacred Land for you to do your job transition?"
Ulpian replied calmly, "Job transition is but an external representation. It's still not leaving the guidance from the demonic gods. If I want to level up, I'll be able to do anytime, anywhere. The changes to space don't have any influence."
Just then, Ulpian's voice paused for a moment before he continued, "Fang Xingjian is here... ? If there's nothing important, he won't come here. Moreover, both of you have reached tier six of the Divine level and are already top notch existences in this land.
"It means that either those few Mage Kings who don't understand the situation have made a move or that something has happened to the Plenary Foundation Septet."
"Commander is right, " Fang Xingjian said as he stepped out slow from spatial gaps. He looked at the Immortality Saint and asked with a solemn expression, "Saint, did you do an investigation previously? I took a look at the seven seals for the Plenary Foundation Septet, and all of them are empty now."
