In the underground arsenal, a large number of equipment of all varieties were being manufactured. Most of them were created by Fang Xingjian in order to accumulate manufacturing experience and thus were not put to use by the imperial court.
At the lowest level of the underground arsenal, Fang Xingjian turned into an invisible power, concentrating fully on controlling the over 1, 000 installations. A blurry human figure was slowly moving bit by bit, controlled by the countless devices and Fang Xingjian's martial will.
It was a girl who was about 1. 4 meters in height with snow-white skin that was like white silk.
The girl had long black hair which was now scattered in midair like a waterfall. Her eyes were shut tightly as if she were sleeping beauty.
The sphere that Blood Sea was refined into was right in front of the girl. Within it, streams of vital energy and blood kept on seething, and there was indifference in that massive eye as if it had lost all its consciousness.
'Since I can't skip the heaven-blessed cultivator verification process, I'll create a heaven-blessed cultivator that belongs to me and make use of her to control this world.
'The android in the Divine Emperor's information is just the right fit for this. '
At the next moment, the sphere that had sealed up Blood Sea was suddenly crushed by an invisible force, turning into thick streams of vital energy and blood that gushed into the young girl's body.
As the vital energy and blood gushed in, streams of green veins were revealed on the young girl's body. There seemed to be many green veins popping up on her elegant-looking face, and a hint of savageness flashed on her snow-white cheeks. Her long lashes trembled slightly, and her thin and long brows furrowed together. It was as if she was in great pain.
At the moment, Blood Sea was crushed, and the large number of devices in the surroundings also started moving. Streams of scorching light shot onto the young girl's body together with electric sparks and invisible waves as if suppressing the chaos in her body in a moment. The savageness on her face also started to disappear slowly.
'I'll channel Blood Sea's life mark into number 1's body, letting this world treat her as a heaven-blessed cultivator... '
Fang Xingjian looked at this young girl, watching as her aura changed bit by bit, and the corners of his lips gradually curled up into a hint of a smile.
The entire heaven-blessed cultivator conversion ritual had taken Fang Xingjian three days. Three days later, the vital energy and blood, as well as green veins that were on the young girl's body, were already nowhere to be seen. She was like a doll made from snow, curling up her body and slowly floating in midair.
Fang Xingjian stood at the side, closing his eyes as he received all the sensory information that she had. It was like how he had received Blood Sea's sensory information back when he captured Blood Sea previously.
'Godly Demon Expeditious Transformation. This martial technique... '
Just as Fang Xingjian was sensing the martial technique bestowed by the world from the young girl's sensory information, a loud explosion was produced in the air with a bang.
The young girl who looked like a doll suddenly shattered, turning into blood fog that drifted in midair. All the blood fog eventually seemed like it was alive and gathered together once again. They turned into an eye that was the size of a basketball, looking at the laboratory with indifference.
'Seems like a failure... '
Fang Xingjian frowned and started to think of the reason for his failure.
...
"What? The allied forces suffered a great defeat? The 13 Tiangang Realm experts were completely wiped out? Even Mister Nong had died in battle?"
Although the journey to the Flying Immortal Mountain was very far and Xiao Shen was engrossed in his research, Fang Yuan and the others still managed to obtain the news transmitted from the frontlines.
However, the news they got was completely different from what they had imagined.
To think that a powerful 200, 000-man army and 13 Tiangang Realm experts had been completely defeated by the imperial court... Moreover, this was without either Fang Xuan or Marie making a move.
How strong was the imperial court?
Fang Yuan and the other two exchanged a glance and knew that they had thought too simply of the imperial court in the past.
Right now, the Great Jin Dynasty was like a deep and bottomless pond. No one knew what kind of monster was living in the depths of the pond.
"The only hope lies in us."
"We must attain a breakthrough to the Great Dao Realm. As long as we combine the powers of six Great Dao Realm experts, we'll definitely be able to defeat Fang Xuan."
...
Time continued to pass by as the confrontation between the south and the north carried on.
A few months later, close to two years of time had passed by since the time Fang Xingjian first arrived in this world. During this period of time, chaos and rebels were scattered across the lands.
During this period, there were many subjects that kept on submitting reports to request for troops to be dispatched to wipe out the rebels from the three regions in the south.
Fang Xingjian was still studying the changes to the heaven-blessed cultivators on both sides and did not wish to engage in a war too early. He felt that there was still plenty of time.
After the Crown Princess traded all of the sword techniques with Fang Xingjian, she announced that she would enter training in conclusion. It seemed that she wanted to fully focus on deriving the high-dimensional sword arts, hoping to be able to attain a breakthrough to the two-dimensional seal that had been applied on her.
On the Flying Immortal Mountain, two invisible pressures came down from the sky. The majestic Qi activities seemed to cause a change to the world within a range of 1, 000 lis.
As the two yin and yang Qis rapidly changed, streams of lightning cut across the sky, typhoons raged on, and heavy rain came down.
However, the bad weather sustained only for a short while before the sky cleared up a few minutes later. The sun shone down brightly, and the dark clouds rapidly dissipated at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.
Still, the clear weather did not sustain for long either. Not long later, snowflakes started falling down from the sky.
Rainstorms, lightning, typhoons, heavy snow, clear sky.... All sorts of weather changes occurred continuously within the range of 1, 000 lis. It was as if there was a pair of invisible hands that kept on changing the world's vital energies and magnetic fields.
In a stone chamber, Xiao Shen was staring at a black box in his hand, frowning whilst being deep in thought. He saw the words written on it— Cosmic Cube 1. Occasionally, the black box would emit a layer of faint blue light. However, no matter how Xiao Shen observed or probed it with his Gang Qi, he was unable to get any useful information.
If it was not because he could hold onto this Cosmic Cube, he would almost think that it was an illusion.
This state that could be touched but not seen clearly made him felt increasingly aggrieved.
This condition could be said to be a norm over the past few months.
"I understand it now."
A hint of comprehension suddenly flashed in Xiao Shen's eyes. The Cosmic Cube in his hand suddenly disappeared. Unexpectedly, a faint layer of blue light was being emitted from under the surface of his skin. It was as if the Cosmic Cube had gushed into his body.
"Hahahaha, so that's how it is, so that's how it is. I've finally made sense of the principles behind this Cosmic Cube."
As the blue light flashed, a series of intense light waves surged out from his body.
"Universe, heed my calling!"
Endless Gang Qi condensed together at the spot above Xiao Shen's heart, forming a blue cubic heart. It kept on engulfing and releasing, clearing frantically absorbing all sorts of energies from the world.
