Chapter 1010: Middle-earth

While the two experts were having an exchange in the north, Fang Xingjian had already returned to the palace in the Imperial Capital.

After one day and one night, he once again opened up the black paper in which the Crown Princess was sealed.

As expected, the Crown Princess in the black paper was a lot calmer, and her pair of eyes stared coldly at Fang Xingjian. She said, “Let me out. Don’t worry, I won’t attack anyone.”

She was, after all, an unrivaled genius in the Western Land, someone who had dominated over an area. After one day and one night passed, she had already thought over the situation thoroughly.

Fang Xingjian shook his head. “Not right now. I’m only checking out your condition. I’ll let you out when we’ve arrived.”

After saying that, he folded up the paper, leaving the Crown Princess shouting and yelling in fury.

Seeing that everything returned to darkness and Fang Xingjian’s image was no longer in sight, the Crown Princess gritted her teeth angrily and said with great hatred, “Fang Xingjian, just you wait!”

Thinking of her current situation, she felt both embarrassed and infuriated. To think that she was being kept like a pet by a man… Even if she was released, she would still have to go through all those actions. When had she ever been put through such a situation?

The Crown Prince thought angrily, ‘Fang Xingjian, wait till I’ve gotten a handle on you. I’ll definitely lock you up and get you to lick my feet and eat my feces every day.’

After Fang Xingjian put aside the paper seal, he went to look for the Fourth Prince, Tyrant, and the others. He instructed them about the cooperation that the Empire would be having with the Church of Universal Truth and the harvesting of the plains, as well as other matters.

It could be said that the battle in the Imperial Capital had caused Fang Xingjian’s reputation to soar like the rising sun. Many people even referred to him as being number one in the world and the strongest in the continent. Countless factions and expects had all come to join his side.

Additionally, there were also Tyrant and the six others—the tier five Divine level experts under Fang Xingjian. Although they had been defeated by the Phenomenal Saint, their reputation had not been affected. After all, the Phenomenal Saint was a tier six Divine level expert and he also possessed the White Emperor Zenith Sword. It was normal for them to have lost.

Fang Xingjian knew that putting aside the top-notch experts, Tyrant and the group—in addition to the ten or more experts who had joined their side after the battle in the Imperial Capital, including the Sea Monarch—were already sufficient to deal with most threats. Therefore, Fang Xingjian was not worried about this.

He just gave Tyrant and the others some guidance in their martial arts cultivation and then made arrangements for the cooperation with the Church of Universal Truth before announcing that he was going to go into seclusion.

This time around, Fang Xingjian’s goal for entering seclusion was naturally to strive for tier seven of the Divine level.

He wanted to search for a world with a vast difference in the rate of time flow from this world’s, perfecting his high-dimensional sword arts while striving for tier seven of the Divine level. This was in preparation for the possibility that he might need to fight against Ulpian in the future.

Moreover, the mastery of time he would attain at tier seven of the Divine level could also be of help for him to understand his life span.

…

In Middle-earth, smoke was rising up and the people were living in misery.

Eunuchs and relatives of the royal family held power internally while feudal vassals held military power. The royal family’s power was weakening, and the political world was dark.

After 200 years, the Great Jin Dynasty was finally headed for its downfall.

The Central Dynasty had almost lost all of its control over the 12 regions in Middle-earth.

Right now, inside Chengtian Palace 1 in the Divine Capital…

Fang Xingjian opened his eyelids slowly and took a look at the surroundings.

The first thing he did was to observe the rate of flow of his life span.

At the next moment, a hint of glee flashed on his face.

‘Good. Based on this speed, even if I stay in this world for five years, only one month will have passed in Miracle World at most. With such a long duration, it’s sufficient for me to do those things.’

Simultaneously, the martial will in his body had already swept out.

Right now, with his great cultivation, he naturally was able to control his martial will with great ease. As long as he was willing to, his martial will could cause mountains to collapse, the earth to crack, and rivers and seas to overturn. His martial will would also be able to pass through the darkness, being invisible and without form.

Within a short period of time, his martial will had already swept through the entire Divine Capital roughly.

‘It’s a world similar to ancient dynasties…?’

Fang Xingjian had come to this parallel world through the Nine-Tiered Heavens. However, things were slightly different from how they had been before. This time around, he replaced his persona in this parallel universe directly, just like how he had entered the parallel universe’s Fang Clan the other time.

Martial will swept out slightly, and Fang Xingjian got some understanding toward his character in the Divine Capital.

It was a pity that his persona in this parallel world was too weak. At the instant his martial will descended, all thoughts were crushed into dust, leaving only an empty shell. However, Fang Xingjian was unable to find out his identity in this parallel world.

Still, after seeing the dragon robe 2 he was wearing, he guessed that he was probably the Emperor.

Through his martial will’s senses, Fang Xingjian understood that his appearance in this universe was a young man at the age of 15 or 16 years of age. He was lean and had a pale and sickly countenance. There was no sign of an Emperor’s prestige at all.

He did not care about status, but he knew nothing about this world. Anyway, this world was for him to clear the trial to reach tier seven of the Divine level. Although Fang Xingjian was very confident in his sword arts, he would not be blindly confident. Therefore, the first thing he needed to do now was to understand the situation in this world.

At the thought of this, he looked toward a young eunuch at the side and said, “You, come over here.”

That young eunuch had handsome and elegant features, and his eyes gleamed with a hint of intelligence.

“Your Majesty, what commands do you have?”

He walked up to Fang Xingjian. Although his etiquette was in order, it seemed to be like some kind of rigid protocol. There was a lack of respect for royal authority in his expression.

Fang Xingjian gave it some thought and said, “Tell me about the world’s situation now.”

Hearing Fang Xingjian’s question, a hint of contempt flashed in the depths of the young eunuch’s eyes. He felt that this young Emperor really was just a puppet who probably could not even leave this Chengtian Palace. It was unexpected that the Emperor would need to find out about the world’s situation from him.

However, at the next moment, a hint of perplexity flashed in his eyes as he looked into Fang Xingjian’s eyes. He felt that Fang Xingjian’s eyes appeared extremely attractive and beautiful.

He said in a dazed expression, “Your Majesty has just ascended the throne and are too young, thus your power has been transferred to others. Right now, all the authority is in the hands of General Cao, Eunuch Wang, and Grand Preceptor He.

“However, war has broken out across the land since a long time ago, with the feudal vassals of various states forcibly taking land and declaring themselves to be rulers of the lands. The imperial court’s orders are probably unable to even leave the Jing Region…”

After performing the Heart Sword Path, the young eunuch naturally shared everything that he knew. Hearing these, Fang Xingjian frowned slightly.

He had not expected that his identity in this parallel universe would not be of any help and instead be a burden to him.

However, this person was a young eunuch after all. He had merely heard of the world’s events from some official subjects and did not know much himself. Fang Xingjian merely asked a few questions, and the young eunuch was already unable to speak in detail.

Therefore, Fang Xingjian sent out a few streams of martial will, probing toward the entire Divine Capital.

One reason was so that he could understand the situation in this world, while the other was to take a look at what kind of extraordinary powers there were in this world.
