Chapter Ten: The Future Traveler
“Fang Lin Kong!?”
Upon hearing that the target he was supposed to assassinate was the big boy in front of him, Omega fell silent. He calmly said, “I admire your courage. Instead of waiting to die at home, you came here looking for death! However, the outcome has already been decided and will not change. You can start saying your last words.”
Clap! Clap!
Fang Lin Kong smiled and applauded, seemingly approving of Omega's words.
“That’s right, the outcome has already been decided and will not change. Although it won’t be what you imagine, I truly admire your foresight.”
Omega, coming from the upper class of Europe, had never learned the art of street brawling. He merely observed coldly and waited for Fang Lin Kong to finish speaking before sharply retorting, “Enough with the nonsense; now you can die!”
Without fully understanding his opponent's strength, Omega refrained from using any powerful spells. Instead, he activated a Fighting Sphere. The explosive power of a close-range Fighting Sphere was immense, and Omega dared not endure it.
Thus, dozens of water orbs were unleashed as he first broke through the roof of a taxi and leaped into the air.
The water orbs contained highly concentrated demon energy, which had been ionized into a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen. Any slight contact with an object would result in a violent explosion. This type of Fighting Sphere was one of the favorite combat methods among demons. Due to the varying nature of demon energy and differences in technique, the power and effects of Fighting Spheres could differ greatly. They were akin to the Psychic Bullets used by the Demon Hunting Team, with countless variations.
Omega had considerable confidence in his Fighting Sphere. However, after leaping into the air, he suddenly felt a heavy weight on his body. He quickly recited a short incantation; the power of the flying spell began to support him in mid-air. Yet Omega never expected that his usually adept flying spell would only hold for ten seconds before being overwhelmed by gravity ten times stronger than before. He promptly fell from the sky to the ground, his designer suit rolling in dirt and becoming a mess.
Omega had considered continuing to resist. However, most of his studied spells focused on incantations. His enemy clearly knew his weaknesses all too well. Under the gravitational suppression, it was difficult even to utter a spell or stick out his tongue like a dog in summer. Let alone pronounce anything correctly.
The taxi, destroyed by the Fighting Sphere, erupted in flames, and the heavy smell of gasoline wafted into Omega's nostrils. He could barely move his eyes to see a lazy figure casually walking out of the fire.
"Although it's unfortunate, I won't let anyone threaten my past!" the figure declared. "You can go die."
The tone was calm, devoid of any emotion. Omega then felt his bones cracking under the pressure of gravity, shattering painfully. Blood gushed from his mouth in torrents.
The boy who called himself Fang Lin Kong stepped lightly, a spell penetrating the ground beneath him. The earth trembled strangely. Where Omega lay, the soil formed a slowly swirling vortex, quietly consuming all traces of his existence in this world—
"Life is truly lonely!"
With a lazy gait and the relaxed silhouette of its master, Fang Lin Kong stepped into the void, leaving behind only a famous saying that drifted away in the evening breeze.
Such overwhelming power did not belong to a boy still training at home for the impending crisis. Instead, it came from an unparalleled powerhouse from the future. Until his last moment, Omega had no idea what kind of demon king he had provoked.
"In just one day, seven assassination cases occurred consecutively. The missing individuals left no trace behind; the seven assassins from Tartarus who entered mainland China vanished without a trace. Fang Lin Kong really is lucky!"
"Luck? I wonder if luck is bestowed by the heavens or if someone is pulling strings!"
After receiving this news, the combat team of True Flame Sect reevaluated their opinion of Fang Lin Kong. It was evident that a powerful force was supporting this boy from behind. As for the extent of that support? Being able to take away Gouli Heaven's Tome in front of Yuan Qian Kun and easily defeat many experts from the International Demon Alliance while eliminating Tartarus's elite without leaving any traces—this information was enough for the East to reconsider whether to maintain an adversarial relationship with Fang Lin Kong.
Sdeck seemed oblivious to deeper implications. With a smug expression, he said, "That old man from Tartarus must be going crazy; he’s already been sidelined within his clan, and now his only capable seven juniors have been wiped out. Maybe in a few days we’ll see a mad old man flooding this city."
The East could only feel helpless and didn’t want to waste another word on it.
"Damn it! Doesn’t that fool Sdeck think about our situation?"
Although his crisis had been temporarily resolved, Fang Lin Kong remained oblivious to it all. Every day after school, he secretly trained at the shooting club. He had no way to rapidly improve his skills, but he was determined to exponentially enhance his combat power, and Abai presented a shortcut right before him. As long as he could properly utilize the legacies from Liexiezi and Voidbreaker, even monsters ten times stronger than him would not stand a chance against Fang Lin Kong.
The treasures of the Daoist Sect were fundamentally different from Western holy artifacts and divine weapons.
The Western Demon Hunting Team's Ten Divine Weapons and Three Sacred Artifacts each had their own strengths and were not inferior to the top-tier treasures of the Middle-Earth Taoist Sect. However, these Western divine weapons had mysterious origins and were not crafted by Western cultivators themselves. As long as the nature of one's true energy was compatible, anyone could wield them with ease. In contrast, the Celestial Weapons of the Middle-Earth Taoist Sect had a much clearer lineage, often being the result of top-tier cultivators' hard work over hundreds of years.
No matter how open-minded a cultivator might be, they would never consider training a treasure that anyone could use in a Rebellious Style. Therefore, when crafting Celestial Weapons, they infused these treasures with unique properties that matched their own true energy attributes. Only those who possessed the exclusive refining incantations could utilize them.
Moreover, according to the levels of these incantations, there were corresponding authority levels as well. The original creator often held the highest authority. Even if someone else obtained the treasure, it would automatically return to its master with just one command.
The higher the level of a treasure, the more complex its refining method became. This made it increasingly difficult for enemies with greater power to forcibly seize it. Naturally, lower-tier treasures often had some common cultivation incantations, and the verification of control authority was not as strict.
The Liexie Twin Hooks and many other treasures like the Great Freedom Heaven Realm Seven Treasures Banner that Fang Lin Kong could currently wield were not due to his mastery but rather because these treasures possessed inherent spiritual qualities that responded automatically to their master's commands. This kind of Grass-Soaring Treasure technique was quite low-level. The bond between him and the treasures was weak, making it easy for someone with profound power and deep mastery of techniques to forcibly take them away.
Fang Lin Kong did not lack incantations for cultivating treasures; he retained memories etched by Future Seer in his mind. The unique incantation for cultivating the Liexie Twin Hooks was one of Kunlun's three Sword Control Techniques—Sword Control Twelve Techniques.
The Four Treasures of the Demon Gate had another secret incantation known as the Eternal Demon Suppression Scripture that allowed for simultaneous cultivation of four types of treasures.
With a mindset of wanting too much at once, Fang Lin Kong paid little attention to the remaining treasures. The Five Elements Escape Spirit Flag, a treasure primarily used for escape, was lightly overlooked as he moved on.
