Chapter 909: Striving to Clear the Tier

The Immortality Saint said, “We can’t stop working on the seven seals either. I’ll work on the four in the north, and the three in the south will be left to you. We must send people to stop others from probing into the seals and prevent the seven devils from escaping. After we’ve reached tier six of the Divine level, we’ll deal with these seven devils.”

After the meeting at the Wolf’s Howl Mountain, Fang Xingjian immediately returned to the palace in the Imperial Capital and summoned the six Divine level experts who were working under him.

Fang Xingjian looked at the six of them and immediately said, “Seven days later, I’ll go into seclusion and strive to reach tier six of the Divine level.”

Hearing his words, everyone present was a little surprised.

Prince Philip was the first to speak, “Xingjian, tier six of the Divine level is not an easy target. There have been countless geniuses in history who fell at this step. You’ve just reached tier five of the Divine level. Aren’t you rushing it a little by striving to clear another tier seven days later?”

The Fourth Prince also said, “Currently, there’s no one in this land who has stepped into tier six of the Divine level yet. Xingjian, you don’t have to be in such a hurry. You can try to strive for it after preparations are complete.”

Right now, Fang Xingjian could be said to be the supporting pillar for the entire Empire, the strongest expert in the south. Everyone present was unwilling to see anything bad happen to him.

However, Fang Xingjian said, “My mind is made up. This time around, I have full confidence in succeeding. Before I enter seclusion, the six of you must use the Double Moons Projection technique to clear the trials in turn within the next seven days and get stronger. This is so that you can help me take care of the Empire while I’m not around.”

As Fang Xingjian said that, with a single thought, he sent the Church’s secret technique—Trice—into their minds.

Since Fang Xingjian had already decided, everyone knew that it was impossible for them to persuade him otherwise.

Moreover, after seeing the Church’s secret technique for clearing the trials, everyone’s breath hastened. They were pleasantly surprised.

“When you use this secret technique, you’ll be able to choose to head to the worlds with timeflow that is several times faster than ours when you are clearing the trial. You’ll spend several months there while it will only be a few days over here.

“With that, you’ll be able to increase your success rate and yet have more time to cultivate.”

Therefore, everyone started to comprehend the profoundness of the Trice, immediately making preparations to strive for the Nine-Tiered Heavens.

The first team to strive to clear the trials was Tyrant and Philip. The two of them had reached tier three of the Divine level and were the strongest two amongst the six in terms of both their realms and capabilities.

Tyrant’s lips curled up into a cold smile as pernicious and bloody auras surged up from his body. “I’ll be heading off.”

Philip smiled faintly. “Let’s go.”

The two of them turned into two streams of light, soaring into the sky and disappearing into the clouds in the blink of an eye.

Six hours layer, the Blue Sacred Moonlight and the Astral Ancestor who were both at tier three of the Divine level exchanged a smile. It was as if there was an invisible level of mutual understanding between them.

The two of them had been in the Xingwu Region for many years, and each of them took charge of the Myriad Stars Palace and the Full Moon Shrine. They had known each other for a very long time, and their comprehension of the Double Moons Projection during this period of time was very effective.

They exchanged a smile, and each of them took a step forward. Regardless of whether it was in terms of their disposition or action, it was as if they were a single person. Even their martial wills seemed to have been merged into one.

“Thank you, Imperial Preceptor, for granting us a new lease of life. We’ll be heading off.”

Fang Xingjian nodded, and at the next moment, their figures also disappeared into the clouds with a flash.

After several hours, Lan Yue and the Fourth Prince were also done with their preparations. The two of them were experts who have both reached tier two of the Divine level and possessed the three secret techniques—the mystical prints, Double Moons Projection, and Trice. They also each possessed the legacies of the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor and the Full Moon Shrine, and were aiming to reach tier three of the Divine level. Their success rate could be said to be the highest.

The Fourth Prince nodded toward Fang Xingjian and said, “I’ll have to trouble the Imperial Preceptor.”

“It’s fine.” Fang Xingjian waved his hand.

The Fourth Prince turned into a sword shadow at the next moment, piercing through the skies and charging out toward the Nine-Tiered Heavens.

Lan Yue took a long look at Fang Xingjian. To begin with, she already had feelings of admiration and respect toward him. So, right now, with Fang Xingjian’s Heart Sword materialized, he was like the most tempting poison in the world. A strange gleam shone out from Lan Yue’s gaze.

At the next moment, Lan Yue broke into a brilliant smile and charged out toward the sky, following the Fourth Prince. “Wait for my return.”

Looking at the empty palace hall before him, Fang Xingjian closed his eyes and started cultivating.

Over the next seven days, he would be waiting here. He would wait for the six of them to succeed in advancing and then return.

Of course, he had also given out orders with regard to the seven seals. He handed this matter to the Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch, Prince Zuoxian, as well as Ferdinand, Charlot, and the others.

With that, around six days later, two majestic auras that were like the great sun descended from the sky. All the experts in the Imperial Capital were astonished. When they sensed two auras disappear inside the palace, they all felt anxious and doubtful.

Fang Xingjian opened his eyes and looked at Tyrant and Prince Philip. Their dispositions were different from before they left.

Even their clothes had changed into metallic armors, and there were murderous expressions on their faces.

They had clearly experienced a series of great battles.

Fang Xingjian smiled. “It seems that both of you have successfully reached tier four of the Divine level.”

Tyrant exhaled, feeling greatly emotional. “We stayed for close to five months in that world. The world there is divided by the Mage Association and Church of Universal Truth. The two influences tie down each other from the north and south respectively. There are also invasions of monsters from other universes as well.

“Thankfully, the two of us joined forces and killed those monsters completely, returning history back to how it should be.”

“However, it took a lot of effort.” A hint of fear flashed in Philip’s eyes. “We don’t know where those monsters came from. They were really troublesome to deal with.”

“It’s good that you’re back.” Fang Xingjian’s martial will swept across the sky. “The Astral Ancestor and the Blue Sacred Moonlight should be back soon as well.”

It was a pity that one day later which was when Fang Xingjian had agreed to meet the Immortality Saint, the Astral Ancestor, the Blue Sacred Moonlight, the Fourth Prince, and Lan Yue did not manage to return in time.

However, Fang Xingjian no longer had time to wait. He left the matters to Tyrant and Prince Philip and flew toward the sky by himself.

His clone that had come from Demonic City’s sun had already arrived there, and the two bodies merged into one. Fang Xingjian immediately felt explosive powers seething in his body.

‘This time around in my attempt to strive for tier six of the Divine level, I can also train myself thoroughly in the extended timespan. The Instant Sword, Heart Sword Path, and the Divine Country all require a long period of time to cultivate.’

In the blink of an eye, Fang Xingjian arrived at the Wolf’s Howl Mountain. The Immortality Saint was already waiting there.

The two of them exchanged a glance and smiled.

“Let’s go.”

“You first.”

A short moment later, the two figures had disappeared from this world.

Countless universes and timelines kept on flashing before Fang Xingjian’s eyes as usual. When he finally arrived at his goal and stopped moving, Fang Xingjian opened his eyes only to sense a strange feeling.

‘My body?

‘Am I this strong?’

Terrifying powers seethed in his body, giving him the feeling that his current self was too powerful.

Simultaneously, a beam of silver light cut across the sky and appeared before him, hitching onto his finger at a speed that was faster than Fang Xingjian’s reaction speed.

“Fang Xingjian from Earth, you possess unparalleled determination to climb up to the ultimate height. Welcome to the White Army.”
