At the next moment, Fang Xingjian opened his mouth and suddenly let out a fierce bellow that was like the heavenly thunders. He sent endless streams of sound waves seething out in all directions, destroying countless stretches of flame clouds and explosions.
Then Fang Xingjian took in a deep breath, and it was as if a black hole had suddenly appeared in the sky. The boundless rays of light, air currents, and flames were all instantly drawn into Fang Xingjian’s mouth.
Fang Xingjian’s body was like an infinite space, yet there also seemed to be some kind of potential in his physical body that had been completely unleashed.
Various powers in the world, including geomagnetic forces, rays from the stars, sunlight, and many others were being wildly absorbed into Fang Xingjian’s body, filling up every single one of his physical particles. All the energy that had been depleted in the Hades Vault was rapidly replenished.
The Fourth Prince said in astonishment, “This condition… Perfection in the ether organs?”
Philip wore a grim countenance as well and said, “That’s right. What a fast speed… The condensing of one’s ether organs is the toughest obstacle to clear, taking the most time and effort. I initially thought that he would need to take at least one to two years to complete this. To think that he has succeeded so quickly?”
As they spoke, the strange condition in Fang Xingjian’s body gradually disappeared, and his physical body calmed down once again.
At this moment, Fang Xingjian had reached a perfection in his ether organs, and the recovery of his energy had reached an unprecedented degree. All the energy he had depleted while in the Hades Vault was once again replenished to peak condition.
Being at level 29 with five tiers of perfection, Fang Xingjian could faintly sense a restriction. It was as if there was no way that he could progress any further after having reached this step. His battle prowess seemed to have reached a pinnacle of level 29, just below the Divine level.
This feeling was very vague, but it truly existed.
Although the ether organs did not directly increase his battle prowess, they allowed his recovery abilities to increase greatly. There seemed to be no need for him to worry about any energy depletion, and he would now be able to unleash his full power explosively at all times.
‘Tyrant, how is it for you?’
‘I’ve long completed it. Have you forgotten that I know black magic? Using black magic to form ether organs… I completed the process ten days ago, and I’m now already at four tiers of perfection.’
‘Alright.’
At the next moment, a hint of strange aura flashed in Fang Xingjian’s eyes, and he said, “Let’s go. I sense that our chance is here.”
“What?”
Before the Fourth Prince could react, Fang Xingjian had already grabbed hold of him. With an explosive boom , a violent power caused the area within 100 li to explode into a sea of flames. Their speed instantly reached an extreme as they darted through spatial gap after spatial gap at high speed, heading toward the center of the Hades Vault.
As Fang Xingjian sensed that the surrounding space was moving back at rapid speed, he could not help but be amazed at how vast the Hades vault was. Then, as he saw the increasing flow of time, Fang Xingjian finally understood something.
‘Even the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor is probably unable to create such a big world. It should be that he started this 5,000 years ago. Then as the 5,000 years passed, it would be as if several hundred thousands or millions years had passed in the Hades Vault. That was why it has now expanded to its current stage amidst the endless burning and explosions.
‘At the start, time might not have accelerated at such a quite rate, but with the passing of so many years, more and more physical particles were burned. Additionally, there had been constant changes to both gravity and mass, causing the space to grow increasingly bigger and time to flow increasingly faster.’
At this moment, even Fang Xingjian was full of admiration for the profound design the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor had developed when he created the Hades Vault.
…
Elsewhere, at the center of the Hades Vault, there was a purely black piece of land.
The stretch of land was lifeless, and there was no hint of vitality at all, nor could any living creatures or plants be seen. It was like a meteor from beyond the heavens.
If one were to take a closer look, they would be able to realize that the entire land was trembling and fluctuating incessantly. It was not in a solid form; rather, it was in a gaseous or plasma state. Although it looked like a piece of land, it was more like a lump of black flames.
At the center of this fiery land, the First Prince was standing in void space. The area within 1,000 li around him was being endlessly engulfed in flames and explosions. With every passing minute and second, it seemed as if there were countless waves of fire and shock waves lashing out at the First Prince’s body with a power that could crush mountains and rivers, as well as overturn rivers and seas.
Waves of pressure came from across space and pressed down on the First Prince’s body, as if wanting to squash every single physical particle in his body into powder.
At this moment, almost every single inch of skin on the First Prince’s body was trying to fend off pressure that held the impact of mountains and rivers. It was as if he were supporting the entire country single-handedly.
Meanwhile, the Dark Knight had disappeared and was nowhere to be seen.
However, regardless the kind of attacks that had been lashed out, they were unable to breakthrough the Hell’s White Bone Armor. This ultimate treasure of the Ancient Path of Hell seemed to symbolize unparalleled defence. No matter what kind of attack struck his body, they were turned into streams of hellish fire and absorbed into the Divine Armor, once again increasing the waves of sulfuric lava aura on the Hell’s White Bone Armor.
Concurrently, the First Prince’s martial will gushed out as he said, “Do you still want to try? Rona, I didn’t expect that you to have received the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor’s Waves legacy. However, even if the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor were still alive, he can forget about breaking through my Hell’s White Bone Armor. Can it be that you actually think that you’re even more amazing than the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor?”
The young man called Rona smirked and said, “George Krieg, the Krieg royal family is really shameless. Even the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor won’t be able to break through that armor? If he really were to come back to life, the Krieg royal family will probably be the first to kowtow and revere him.
“You said that I’m unable to break through your Hell’s White Bone Armor, but are you able to get out of the Hades Vault? With the time acceleration here, I’ll just continue to refine you for eight to ten years 1 . I don’t believe that you’ll be able to continue to hang on.”
Although the threat in his tone was fierce, the blue-haired young man, who was hidden amongst layers of flame clouds, looked at the scene before him with a grim countenance. ‘Damn it, isn’t this Hell’s White Bone Armor far too powerful? Borrowing the power of the Hades Vault, I continue to refine him with the flames and pressure in the center of the vault. The destructive force that is unleashed every minute is able to break mountain tops and rivers. Yet after an entire 20 days, he is still perfectly fine?’
Then, thinking of how Fang Xingjian still had not arrived after all this time, Rona’s frown deepened. ‘I initially wanted to bring the two of them down and refine them together. I didn’t expect that Fang Xingjian not to make his move even until now. Of all times, the Senluo Six Heavens Sword has to appear now, and the First Prince wants to take it. There’s no way that I’ll just watch as he does that.
‘If this were to continue, I won’t have any remaining power to suppress the Hades Ghost Dragon and to obtain the Senluo Six Heavens Sword.’
When Fang Xingjian brought the Fourth Prince along with him here through the spatial gaps, this was the scene that he saw.
Then they looked at the area below the First Prince and saw that there was a deep pool formed from black flames. The entire deep pool was almost the size of the Great Western City. Around it, there were nine huge four-legged horned dragons, that were over 1,000 meters in length, lying flat on the flaming ground.
Each of these dragons continued to lay there like they were dead. However, there were no signs of them rotting at all. Every scale and strand of hair made it seem like the dragons were still alive, as if they would awaken at the next moment.
On the necks of the huge dragons, there were a total of nine huge chains leading into the deep deep pool.
In the pitch deep black pool, the nine thick chains were pulled very straight, then they trembled and shook incessantly. It was as if there was something struggling wildly in the deep pool.
The deep pool, the nine huge dragons, the thick chains, and the endless ripples in the deep pool… These were the sights that Fang Xingjian saw.
Simultaneously, the Fourth Prince pointed to the deep pool and said, “It’s inside. I can sense that the Senluo Six Heavens Sword is in the deep pool.”
The moment the Fourth Prince finished saying this, the chains bent abruptly, and the water from the deep pool continued to rise as if some tremendous object was going to charge out.
