Chapter 979: Darkness

Looking at Duan Tianhao, Fang Xingjian tapped out with a finger, and piercing sword light scattered out. It was as if they were going to pierce through even the surrounding space.

Duan Tianhao was unable to fend off Fang Xingjian’s finger. He sensed the piercing white light before him stimulating his eyes to keep tearing up. HIs skin was also in intense pain like it had been pierced by needles all over.

At the next moment, a feeling like he was slashed by a myriad of blades came gushing over. Countless sword marks erupted on Duan Tianhao’s body, and it seemed as if his body was going to be torn apart very soon.

Right then, an unprecedented feeling of terror filled Duan Tianhao’s heart. The taste of death had never felt so close to him before, causing his scalp to turn numb. His heartbeat and breathing seemed as if they had stopped as he sank into the greatest feeling of terror.

However, just as Duan Tianhao was about to die from this attack…

A sigh rang out, and a blurry figure appeared between Fang Xingjian and Duan Tianhao. That figure gently pressed a hand on the sword light. Instantly, everything in the world was wiped out, and all of the sword light had become a part of the darkness.

After the sword light dissipated, the man’s figure was finally revealed. It was a man who had been completely encompassed by a melancholy disposition.

Long black robes, long black hair… It was like he was the sovereign of the dark night. His entire body was incorporated into the darkness, making it hard to see his true appearance clearly.

Only his pair of bright eyes stood out in the darkness.

It was a pair of melancholy eyes. Its gaze seemed to be filled with pity for all living creatures in the world—grieving over life, recalling fondly about the past, and feeling worried about the future.

Fang Xingjian said calmly as he looked at the man before him, “Are you finally willing to come out? Isn’t it you who is helping Duan Tianhao to reestablish the Steel Lion Kingdom on the plains? You even injured Tyrant, whom I sent over?”

As Fang Xingjian spoke, his martial will scanned the other party’s body, incessantly trying to probe his powers.

‘Tier five Divine level?’ Fang Xingjian thought, ‘It’s a clone that they specially lowered the strength of?’

When that man heard Fang Xingjian’s question, he sighed. There seemed to be endless worries in his eyes.

“The plains have always had their own set of rules since the ancient times. Since the Imperial Preceptor has already won against the Heavenly Lion King and received a large amount of repayment, why is there a need for you to continue being so pushy, wanting to have the plains under your control as well?”

After saying this, the man raised his head and looked at Fang Xingjian. His gaze seemed to be filled with great love for life and pity for all lives in the world as he looked at Fang Xingjian tenderly and firmly.

This person was the Plenary Foundation Septet’s Hei Zi 1 . Right now, this person was disguised as a hidden expert on the plains, going against Fang Xingjian.

Just as Fang Xingjian was assessing Hei Zi, Hei Zi was also assessing Fang Xingjian.

‘A cultivation of tier five of the Divine level?’ Hei Zi thought inwardly as he assessed Fang Xingjian. ‘It should be a clone as well. Based on our information, it’s true that Fang Xingjian is a great talent that comes by once in every 1,000 years. His talent is truly remarkable for him to be able to turn into a tier five Divine level expert from an ordinary apprentice within just three to four years.

‘However, he’s not worth worrying about since he has not reached tier six of the Divine level, nor does he posses sorcery or divine arts.’

At the thought of this, he frowned slightly. ‘But I can’t push back his clone with tier six Divine level abilities. Otherwise, it’ll be trouble if it causes unnecessary complications and information to leak out, leading to a joint attack from the Mage Association and Church of Universal Truth.’

‘At least, before the Crown Prince is released, we can’t display our tier six Divine level abilities. We must avoid getting the attention from those people, lest they join forces once again.’

Hei Zi also felt great emotional stirrings toward the concealed experts of this land. 1,000 years ago, the world also underwent a metamorphosis, and countless experts kept appearing.

Back then, they thought that they would be able to destroy all other forces with their tier six Divine level cultivation. It was only later that they found out the background and the strength of the people of this land were far from being as simple as they seemed.

Their actions even caused those people to join forces, becoming a huge threat to them and even sealing them up eventually for 1,000 years. It was only now that they managed to break out.

‘That sword from the Church and the pope who supposedly disappeared…

‘The several Mage Kings from the Mage Association who have not made an appearance for several decades…

‘At least, before the Crown Prince breaks out, we mustn’t let them find out about our existence.’

At the thought of this, Hei Zi had already decided that he must not expose his identity and his tier six Divine level capabilities.

‘Then… I’ll use tier five Divine level powers to repulse him.’

Hei Zi looked at Fang Xingjian. Although Fang Xingjian had exceptional talent and his progress rate was unbelievable, Hei Zi was confident in the fact that he had devoted hard work to cultivate for thousands of years. 1,000 years ago, he reached tier six of the Divine level and achieved great mastery in the Black Sun Sect’s Black Sun Technique.

In the 1,000 years that he had been sealed up, his understanding toward the Dark Sky Technique surpassed that of his Master. He even reached the terrifying realm of being able to call upon the dark night or the bright day sky with just a single thought.

Right now, with them both performing their tier five Divine level capabilities, how could he possibly lose? He just needed to take into consideration to do all he could to conceal his identity.

Duan Tianhao, who was now covered in blood and almost killed by Fang Xingjian’s hands, laughed out excitedly. Seeing Hei Zi, Duan Tianhao could not suppress the smile on his face.

“Senior, he is Fang Xingjian! He’s the one who killed my entire clan and wiped out my Four Seasons Villa. Please help me take revenge!”

Duan Tianhao understood how terrifying the Plenary Foundation Septet was. Every one of these seven monsters were stupendous demons with remarkable powers. When each of them appeared in their true glory, they would be able to shake and pressure the entire world.

If it was not because they held reservations against some experts who concealed themselves in the dark, they would have bathed the entire human world in blood without any reservations, turning the entire land into hell.

“Fang Xingjian, today is just the beginning.” Duan Tianhao grinned. “From today onward, you can try your utmost to struggle and seek to survive, finding all ways and means to resist. But no matter what… you’ll eventually end up being crushed like a bug.”

After saying that, even though Duan Tianhao felt intense pain running throughout his entire body which was covered in blood, he still laughed out loud as he watched Fang Xingjian with great exhilaration and hatred.

Hei Zi’s gaze flashed with a hint of pity like he was lamenting for the grief of all the lives in the world.

‘It’s easy to crush his clone, but… I mustn’t expose too many means.’

At the next moment, his eyes shut tight completely. Accompanied by his action of closing his eyes, the benevolence in his eyes also disappeared completely. As the benevolence disappeared, a killing aura surged rapidly in the atmosphere.

Accompanied by Hei Zi’s act of shutting his eyes, the entire city was encompassed in pure darkness. It was as if all light waves were unable to survive in this darkness.

Black Sun Technique—Dark Shadow Dominion was activated.
