Fang Lin Kong had too many secrets to hide, so he did not mention his trip to Fengshan Village to anyone. According to his plan, the round trip would take only two or three days, and no one would notice his absence.
However, due to unexpected circumstances, Fang Lin Kong found himself struggling in the mountains, engaged in a fierce battle with the Six-Eyed Celestial Wolf. Meanwhile, in the city he came from, the underground dark forces had begun to show signs of unrest.
In a place like the Chifeng Legion, which was dominated by monster forces, it was impossible to confront international powers like Zhou Qingzhe, Zhang Rongying, or even the True Flame Sect head-on. However, as the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake; the True Flame Sect could not spare too many personnel at that moment. To control this city without the help of the Chifeng Legion was simply impossible. Thus, although the True Flame Sect had gradually increased their manpower, they had yet to officially declare war on Ding Chifeng. Instead, they focused on negotiations.
Ding Chifeng had been living in anxiety lately. He had managed the Northeast Region for many years and had established connections with nearly all local monsters. Secretly expanding his influence, he had a large number of loyal subordinates. Completely eliminating the Chifeng Army's power could not be achieved merely by sending a few super experts to wreak havoc.
However, if the True Flame Sect truly decided to use their strength, at least the six leaders of the Chifeng Army would face assassination threats. Such powerful measures might not bring the Northeast Region's monster forces under control, but Ding Chifeng did not want to become a martyr who would raise alarms among other monsters.
For now, it seemed that the Chifeng Army could only secure some lenient terms in negotiations but would ultimately be unable to avoid being controlled by the True Flame Sect. Nonetheless, Ding Chifeng did not believe that cooperating with the True Flame Sect was a wise choice. First of all, the International Demon Alliance's retaliation would directly target the True Flame Sect for collaborating with Zhou Qingzhe and Zhang Rongying. No matter which side the Chifeng Army supported, they would end up as cannon fodder. Secondly, the origins of the True Flame Sect were too mysterious; they had always boasted a poor reputation externally. Collaborating with them would undoubtedly damage his own standing. Chinese cultivation sects would never allow such an obscure organization to invade their homeland.
Survival or destruction was a difficult question for Ding Chifeng. His only option now was to delay. Ideally, he hoped to postpone until the International Demon Alliance went to war with the True Flame Sect. The information he received indicated that after their battle that day, Yuan Qian Kun seemed severely injured and could not take action again for some time. Meanwhile, Zhou Qingzhe and Zhang Rongying had both gone missing, leaving only the True Flame Sect to take over their territories and subordinates.
The two members of Kyo Kusanagi, Allen Xuding and Camberto, were also significantly injured; with their strongest members gone, controlling the situation became more challenging for lower-tier monsters.
The True Flame Sect's momentum was overwhelming while the Demon Hunting Team's stance remained ambiguous. Coupled with the silence of local Chinese cultivation sects, mainland China resembled a powder keg akin to those in the Balkans years ago—ready to ignite at any moment and spark an unprecedented conflict in the monster world.
Fang Lin Kong felt somewhat dazed from exhaustion; he had been harassed by the Six-Eyed Celestial Wolf for ten consecutive days. The near-constant battles left him on edge. Under the illusion cast by the Six-Eyed Celestial Wolf, Fang Lin Kong wandered through vast forests before finally finding a road this morning. Thanks to a long-haul truck driver who recognized a great figure on Chinese currency, he agreed to take Fang Lin Kong to the nearest city. Once he reached a populated area, Fang Lin Kong knew he wouldn’t have trouble finding transportation back home.
The demonic energy infused into him by Liexiezi had already been transformed into his own spiritual power by Fang Lin Kong. Just as all material substances in this world are composed of electrons and protons that can change in arrangement and quantity to create vastly different properties, so too is a cultivator's power derived from various sources including Holy Power fields, Magic Power, Daoist Sect's five elemental energies, curses, mental powers, and even the mysterious Black Flame of the True Flame Sect—all of which can be broken down into their most basic form: chaotic Vitality. As long as he could deconstruct these powers and then reassemble them, Fang Lin Kong could freely convert his internal energy properties and claim external powers as his own.
After a significant leap in his abilities, what Fang Lin Kong lacked the most was a more systematic approach to cultivation and the accumulation of combat experience. He found himself helpless against the Six-Eyed Celestial Wolf, which had entangled him for ten days, simply because he was still a novice in his training and unable to fully unleash his power.
The spells of the Six-Eyed Celestial Wolf were intricate and profound, and Fang Lin Kong had come close to suffering serious setbacks on several occasions. Despite possessing immense energy, his combat prowess did not match it, making him akin to Tang Seng from Journey to the West—a prime target for these beasts who viewed him as an ideal source of nourishment. The effects were even more potent than the best gifts one could offer, leaving him invigorated and stronger after consumption.
With his power enhanced, memories began to crystallize in Fang Lin Kong's mind. As someone from the future, he calculated the consequences of this mission with clarity and arranged multiple options based on potential developments. The artifacts he had just acquired were also meticulously documented.
According to the future experiences of Fang Lin Kong, he had stumbled upon Fengshan Village by chance, lured by Liexiezi into pursuing a path of cultivation. However, the wheel of fate that governed his destiny had been disrupted; Fang Lin Kong had entered this realm several years earlier than intended, and his path diverged sharply from that of his future self.
Destinies arranged by others are seldom smooth sailing, yet they are not entirely fraught with thorns either.
After enduring so many shocks, the only consolation for Fang Lin Kong was that he had gained more benefits than his future counterpart. It was akin to playing a game according to a strategy guide—he missed no treasure chests along the way.
Originally, Voidbreaker Ascend was equivalent to Kyo Kusanagi stepping into the Divine Realm in modern terms. At this level, the most significant change was the ability to transcend this space-time continuum and enter other layers. In ancient China, this was referred to as "Xu." Cultivators who reached a state where they could break free from spatial constraints would leave this realm in search of greater freedom. However, due to differences in abilities, most would become lost in unimaginable temporal chaos. Only a rare few would master the mysteries of time and space after enduring trials, allowing them to traverse freely between layers.
Among the most powerful cultivators were those who could move freely across any layer and even create their own spaces—this was the origin of myth.
The noise and chaos of the human world were too overwhelming for both demons and accomplished cultivators. Thus, once they possessed the ability to leave, few would linger in the mortal realm.
Even Buddhist and Taoist practitioners in China concealed a tendency within their cultivation methods: upon entering non-human domains, they would transform their internal energies to suit traversing through "Xu." However, this also led to an extreme sense of repulsion towards the vitality of the human world. It could be said that Chinese cultivators found it challenging to resist the power of Ascend.
During Voidbreaker Ascend, due to haste, most artifacts remained with his physical body. Notably, one artifact—the Dao Robe named Cosmic Universe—not only served as an exceptional defensive item but could also contain countless objects. Ninety percent of the treasures refined before Voidbreaker Ascend were hidden within Cosmic Robe. Although Liexiezi's artifacts were fewer than those of his senior brother's, each was a masterpiece. Among them, the Liexie Twin Hooks were remnants of Ancient Immortal weaponry with boundless power.
Originally, these items were not something Fang Lin Kong could have obtained.
