“Move away quickly!”
Edward’s countenance changed, and he turned into a stream of golden light, piercing through the s.p.a.ce station’s sh.e.l.l and darting out into outer s.p.a.ce.
The other Commanders also performed their own abilities, fleeing in all directions.
Almost at the instant that they left the s.p.a.ce station, a stream of sword light burst out from Fang Xingjian’s fingertip. It expanded out rapidly in the blink of an eye and turned into a light pillar with a diameter of several hundred meters. Crossing the vacuum, it then encompa.s.sed the entire s.p.a.ce station directly, vaporizing everything.
Fahui, Hui He, the King of Trepidation, Grade, Ming w.a.n.g, Akaryuu Juus.h.i.+rou, and Edward…
A total of seven Commanders were gathered here. Other than the Silver and Cyan Armies’ Commanders who had yet to appear thus far, Fang Xingjian had already met all the Commanders of the 13 armies.
Looking at Fang Xingjian, Edward said, “Fang Xingjian, we’ve finally met.” Golden light shone all over his body. He was like the brightest star in the night sky. Amidst the distorted light, it seemed as if there were also countless characters and numbers jumping around, giving off an extremely mysterious feeling.
Edward continued to say, “Is there no chance of a resolution between us? You’re the White Army’s Commander. You might not know this, but aside from us, this planet is encompa.s.sed by an even more terrifying danger. We shouldn’t be out fighting each other.”
Fang Xingjian was a little surprised when he saw Edward. ‘To think that he has the strength of a tier five Divine level expert. Furthermore, he can conduct observations with his will at the microscopic level. He’s already comparable to the Heavenly Lion King.’
It could be said that it was extremely difficult for one to be able to reach such a level in this world with a cultivation culture that was lower than that of Miracle World’s.
‘It’s a pity that since you’re standing in my way, I can only kill you.’
Many thoughts flashed through Fang Xingjian’s mind rapidly, and he did not answer Edward’s question. Raising his hand, a myriad of sword light scattered out like a meteor shower, charging out toward the seven people.
“d.a.m.n it. He doesn’t care about resolving this with us.”
A hint of fury flashed on the faces of the seven Commander. Fang Xingjian’s contempt—or rather, disregard—had trampled on all of their pride.
However, in the face of the overwhelming sword light that was attacking toward them, they could only perform their respective moves and dodge at the first possible moment.
Edward had it the easiest. With a slight movement, he distorted s.p.a.ce. Then with a single step, he leaped a distance of over ten kilometers, arriving before Fang Xingjian.
Following that, his sword finger came slas.h.i.+ng down, condensing light radiations and turning into a light sword that had a high temperature of several ten thousand degrees Celsius. The light sword slashed out toward Fang Xingjian.
“Not bad.” Fang Xingjian allowed the light sword to slash on his chest. There was friction, then the light sword broke, shattered, and eventually turned into many specks of starlight. He then said calmly, “Your apt.i.tude is considered quite good seeing as you can reach such a level in this world. However, it’s still meaningless.”
As Fang Xingjian said these, his body was gradually covered by a layer of silver light. He turned into an existence that was like a metallic figure, completely reflecting all light and shadow in the surroundings.
The Heaven-Connecting Upper Extremity Sword Physique was activated!
After Fang Xingjian finished speaking, Edward attacked continuously. Golden light flashed on his fingertip, and two surges of power appeared—one material and the other not.
“Take my Antimatter Explosion.”
At the next moment, the two gushes of power merged into one at his fingertip. The violent explosion instantly covered Fang Xingjian’s entire body completely. The high temperature radiated out in all directions. In outer s.p.a.ce, there was no air, just shock waves. However, the power of this Antimatter Explosion could still kill majority tier five Divine level experts.
Despite this, under Edward’s astonished gaze, Fang Xingjian stood there unscathed after the explosion had dissipated.
“You!” Edward’s gaze narrowed as he probed out toward Fang Xingjian’s body. However, at one look, he instantly went into a trance.
No matter how he magnified his senses or let it go down deeper, he was unable to see any particle structure in Fang Xingjian’s body. It was as if he would forever be one entire structure.
Understanding what this meant, the calmness on Edward’s face disappeared for the first time. He finally understood what a grave error he had committed.
‘To think that I didn’t pay heed to a monster like this previously.’
A hint of regret flashed on Edward’s face, and he sighed, turning into golden light that wrapped around Fang Xingjian.
“Oh? You want to self-detonate? It’s meaningless.”
Scorching golden light burst out from Edward’s body. All of his ring’s energy started to materialize a tremendous amount of antimatter.
Edward broke into a big smile, and a hint of regret flashed in his eyes. “It’s a pity that I won’t be able to see your defeat.”
At the instant that the two clashed, the other six Commanders were trying to frantically escape the fate of being killed by a series of sword lights. Piercing golden light came covering down from the sky and one side of the entire planet was covered by the glow from that golden light. It brought daylight to the night’s darkness on this side of the Earth.
Over ten billion people looked at this abnormality in the sky with great surprise. It was not until five minutes had pa.s.sed that the golden light gradually disappeared.
The remaining six Commanders had already split up and escaped. The last message that Edward had transmitted to them was still ringing out in their minds.
“Don’t take him on by force. Release Silver and Cyan. Only they will be able to kill this monster.”
The six of them continued to flee, occasionally communicating through the waves of the rings’ energies. About an hour later, they gathered on the Moon’s surface.
“What are we going to do?” Hui He said, finding this hard to accept. “Are we really going to look for Silver and Cyan?”
A hint of horror also flashed in the King of Trepidation’s eyes. The image of those two figures once again flashed in his mind.
Out of everyone present, he was probably the one who was most afraid of them. It was because the two of them did not harbor good intentions toward him.
“No way,” the King of Trepidation was the first to object. “If we release them, the entire planet will be destroyed.”
“Hehe,” Akaryuu Juus.h.i.+rou said, holding the Light Pursuit Sword, “They won’t destroy the planet, but they might destroy you. You must be objecting to their release because you’re afraid of this, right?”
The King of Trepidation said angrily, “Akaryuu Juus.h.i.+rou, don’t make it sound as if you aren’t scared. If they are released, you can forget about putting your thoughts to action, and you can forget about getting any progress, ever.”
Akaryuu Juus.h.i.+rou smirked, “If they are released, we’ll merely be suppressed. If they aren’t, we might die. You’ve seen it for yourself. That Fang Xingjian is out for our lives.”
Hui He shook his head and said, “But it’s too dangerous to let them out. The two of them can’t be controlled. We might lose half of our people the moment they come out.”
The Green Army’s Ming w.a.n.g looked at the Thunder Calamity Sword and said slowly, “However, if we don’t let them out, all of us will have to die. Fang Xingjian’s strength completely surpa.s.ses our level. You’ve seen it for yourself. Even Edward couldn’t do anything about him.”
“We can’t release them,” Grade said angrily. “If they are released, we’ll never have peace. Do you guys still want to go back to that terrifying period?”
As if some memories had been called up, everyone’s expressions froze.
Fahui pierced the Abyss Sword into the ground and said, “Then let’s just think of a way to send them out. We were able to do it previously, and we’ll be able to do it again. After all, their opponents are only themselves.”
Just as the six of them were arguing incessantly, a stream of orange light suddenly appeared before them.
It was Edward, who should have died from the self-detonation earlier on.
Faced with the six people’s wariness, Edward showed the orange ring in his hand. The ring’s energy illuminated out, turning into waves, and he started to communicate with the six of them.
“Don’t be nervous. I’m a clone prepared by my predecessor. When my predecessor dies, I’ll be activated,” Edward said. “We don’t have time to argue. We must immediately release the two of them. Only they will be able to kill Fang Xingjian. As for what happens after Fang Xingjian is killed, we can still think of ways to seal the two of them. After all, they won’t stop until they’ve fought each other to the bitter death. We can make use of this.”
Seeing the orange light coming from Edward, the six of them let down their guards temporarily. No matter what, it was impossible to fake the rings’ energies.
After hearing Edward’s words, they sank into silence.
