Seeing Fang Xingjian’s brows furrow slightly, Zhao Yinglan added, “For the past 300 years, countless outstanding figures from our Sacred Sect have wanted to decipher the profoundness within it. It’s a pity that even though all methods have been tried, it is still impossible to comprehend the profoundness.”
During the time Zhao Yinglan spoke, Fang Xingjian had already attempted to decipher the profoundness. He skipped words, looked at the start of sentences, put different terms together, and tried many other patterns to attempt deciphering the profoundness, but all of his attempts failed.
His eyes narrowed slightly. ‘Interesting. Was this written in a special encrypted language?’
Fang Xingjian raised his head, looked at Zhao Yinglan, and asked, “Have you guys tried looking for an encrypted language, code, or something similar that the Demon Sovereign might have left behind?”
Zhao Yinglan let out a soft sigh and said, “Someone tried that a long time ago, but they ended up empty-handed.”
Therefore, during this period of time, Fang Xingjian continued to stay on Serene Mountain to decipher the legacy that the Demon Sovereign left behind. Simultaneously, he continued using his own powers to derive this world’s martial arts.
Fang Xingjian put together the secret arts that were passed down through the Great Jin Dynasty’s royal family, as well as the collection of manuals that the Illusory Demonic Path had kept over several centuries. He already had a thorough understanding of this world’s essential Qi. However, in order to understand the intrinsic nature of how the Tiangang Qis and Disha Qis in this world operate, he would still need more time… unless he could understand the profoundness of the Great Dao Realm.
…
Of course, the one deriving martial arts was not just the clone he had left on Serene Mountain alone.
In the Great Jin Dynasty’s palace, Fang Xingjian looked at the Tiangang Qis and Disha Qis before him and said softly, “These Tiangang Qis and Disha Qis contain an abundance of information. If I can decipher them, I may be able to obtain a tremendous amount of information like what I get from ether particles.”
“Fang Xingjian, how long are you going to keep me locked up for? Let me out. With my Royal Heavenly Great Art, I’ll be able to help you derive this world’s martial arts.”
These words came from a long art scroll. The entire scroll was about the height of a person, and the Crown Princess was standing inside it like she was standing in a mirror. She was now shouting at Fang Xingjian.
This art scroll was the result of Fang Xingjian’s constant derivation of essential Qi martial arts and high-dimensional sword arts during this period of time.
Previously, the paper seal that Ulpian had given him was only the size of a palm. However, in the process of deriving high-dimensional sword arts, Fang Xingjian was inspired by Zhao Yinglan when she shattered space. His high-dimensional sword arts attained a further breakthrough, allowing him to change the seal that had been the size of a palm into an art scroll that was the height of a person.
This was the equivalent of increasing the overlap between the two-dimensional world and the real world.
However, the Crown Princess was naturally still dissatisfied with such a situation. After all, no matter how big the cage was, it was still a cage.
Hearing the Crown Princess’s question, Fang Xingjian said, “You’ve also seen all the martial arts secret manuals that I’ve gone through during this period of time. Have you really gained nothing? It’s fine if you want to come out. Tell me all about your martial arts.”
The art scroll in which the Crown Princess was in had many pages of martial arts secret manuals placed before it. Clearly, during this period of time, Fang Xingjian had also shown her the essential Qi martial arts from this world.
Naturally, Fang Xingjian was also extremely interested about the Crown Princess’s Royal Heavenly Great Art which refined martial will.
The Crown Princess shook her head and said proudly, “My Royal Heavenly Great Art is the greatest arts in the Ascendant Heavenly Sect—one of the three supreme sects in the Western Land. How can these superficial martial arts be able to compare to it?”
Saying that, she threw a shrewd glance toward Fang Xingjian, saying, “I can hand it over to you, but you’ll have to trade for it with that technique you use to control the seal.”
Fang Xingjian said, “Sure, but you must first handover the Royal Heavenly Great Art. After I ascertain that there are no problems, I’ll teach you the sword technique.”
The Crown Princess snorted, gritted her teeth, and said, “You may look prim and proper, but you are in fact a person who is full of lies. Who knows if you’ll honor your words?”
Fang Xingjian said calmly, “Maria, since we first met, I’ve always been a man of my words. The one who has been going back on their words is you, is it not?”
“I don’t care.” The Crown Princess was so angry that she kept on stomping. “Regardless, if you don’t teach me your sword technique, I won’t hand over the Royal Heavenly Great Art.”
The Crown Princess could tell that although Fang Xingjian was capable of keeping her within the seal, his foundation and martial will were still incomparable to hers. This meant that he could only keep her locked up but was unable to deal attacks which would be effective against her. He would naturally be unable to do things like interrogate and torture her.
Fang Xingjian shook his head and tapped out a finger. In that instant, streams of light and shadows changed like they were a piece of screen covering the Crown Princess.
“What do you want?” The Crown Princess asked, wrapping her hands around her chest. She said disdainfully, “Anyway, no matter what you do, I won’t give in. The Royal Heavenly Great Art are the Ascendant Heavenly Sect’s ultimate set of technique. Back then, I went through a lot in order to learn it. How can I possibly hand it over to you so easily?”
Simultaneously, the Crown Princess’s figure slowly appeared on the light screen.
“Hmmm?” The Crown Princess frowned. It seemed she still did not understand what Fang Xingjian wanted to do.
At the next moment, the Crown Princess in the light screen started to take off her clothes. Very quickly, she presented an undressed appearance.
Her chest, lower body, and all of her tender snow-white skin were exposed. The beautiful peaks at her chest were exposed in the air without any reservations. When the Crown Princess saw this, her cheeks turned flush red, and her entire body started trembling.
“You!” The Crown Princess suddenly start to stutter, “You… You… You shameless thing! Put it away quickly!”
“Oh? It’s effective?” Fang Xingjian threw the Crown Princess a glance in surprise and said, “Maria, your martial arts foundation is too solid. Even for me, it’s very hard for me to really deal your body any actual harm.
“Therefore, I can only attempt to attack you mentally. I didn’t expect this to be effective.”
“It… It… It isn’t effective at all!” The Crown Princess bellowed, her face flushed red. “You idiot! If you still don’t stop, I swear you’ll never get your hands on the Royal Heavenly Great Art’ legacy!”
Right now, the Crown Princess no longer had the domineering air from before. She was like a young girl who had been m*lested. Her mind was in a mess.
The thing that filled out her mind the most was, ‘Why, why, why, why?!
‘Why is it that Fang Xingjian knows my… appearance?!’
Fang Xingjian said calmly, “Maria, you’re a tier six Divine level expert, yet you’re still so concerned about your physical body? It seems that you value secular habits much more than I do.”
As he spoke, the Crown Princess’ n*ked image disappeared, and the Crown Princess finally heaved a sigh of relief. However, very soon after, she stared at Fang Xingjian viciously, the killing intent in her eyes seemed almost as if it had condensed into a material form.
She stuttered, “Wh… Why… Why do you know my…”
“Oh, at our realm, we’re be able to instantly get the measurements of everything we have a glance of. Have you forgotten about this? Seems like your mind really has received a very strong stimulant,” Fang Xingjian said.
“To hell with your stimulation!”
The Crown Princess brought along a myriad of golden light and rammed against the barrier fiercely. The released golden martial will seemed to want to destroy everything, yet it was unable to transgress bounds.
It was as if the tremor and loud sounds in the two-dimensional world could be heard even in the real world. Fang Xingjian looked at the Crown Princess and said, “Mental attacks are very effective. Maria, seems like you’re still very insistent on your female identity.
“Mmm… Based on secular viewpoints, a beauty like you should be very scared of having your n*ked appearance seen by commoners…”
“Enough.” The Crown Princess’ expression was like that of a small tiger. She stared at Fang Xingjian fiercely and said, “Let’s change a condition regarding the Royal Heavenly Great Art.”
