Fang Lin Kong followed the Hundred Seas Dragon, initially finding it quite interesting to use the detector to observe the creature's body metrics. However, upon closer inspection, he was taken aback.
This monster not only contained an immense amount of energy but also had a remarkable body structure.
The detector's readings fluctuated wildly, quickly surpassing the hundred thousand mark—this was the highest number Fang Lin Kong had ever seen. Even the Future Seer had never exhibited such formidable energy.
Yet, amidst his astonishment, Fang Lin Kong pondered. This serpent-like creature was so massive that it was only natural for its energy to be hundreds of times stronger than his own. After all, its size dwarfed his by thousands of times; having more energy was hardly surprising.
Despite this, Fang Lin Kong felt a sense of reverence towards the beast.
"This creature is not just a natural phenomenon; it seems to possess considerable skill! I wonder how intelligent it is!"
As Fang Lin Kong mused, the detector suddenly reacted violently. He focused his gaze and spotted Heng Ji and Lei Chan hovering above.
"Damn it! They just won’t quit. Let’s see what you’re capable of. I’m coming for you!"
Faced with a formidable enemy, Fang Lin Kong abandoned his interest in following the sea serpent and resolutely surged through the waves, breaking the surface of the ocean.
Heng Ji and Lei Chan were contemplating how to lure Fang Lin Kong away from the Hundred Seas Dragon when they were surprised to see him charging directly at them without any intention of using the dragon as cover.
They were both astonished by Fang Lin Kong's bravery. At the same time, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief; avoiding conflict with Azure Sky Ancestor made things much easier for them.
From a distance, as they watched Fang Lin Kong's retreating figure, the massive body of the Hundred Seas Dragon suddenly twisted. Its enormous head turned to gaze at Fang Lin Kong soaring into the sky, and an astonished ancient voice echoed from beneath the waves.
"This kid is quite interesting; he’s not afraid of either Lei Chan or Heng Ji and doesn’t wish to rely on my protection. He has spirit and drive! I haven’t seen such an intriguing young one in hundreds of years!"
Fang Lin Kong naturally did not hear the sounds from the depths of the sea; even if he did, he would not know what they were.
With a rush of water, Fang Lin Kong shot up into the sky, resembling a giant whale spouting water, creating waves that surged forth. The spectacle was immense.
Even his enemies, Lei Chan and Heng Ji, sensed the determination of this human youth.
After ascending to a height of one kilometer, Fang Lin Kong finally halted his momentum. At this point, he was slightly higher than Heng Ji and Lei Chan by several hundred meters.
Having just comprehended the Eternal Demon Suppression Scripture and grasped all the uses of the Four Treasures of the Demon Gate, Fang Lin Kong's confidence surged. He confronted the encroaching Lei Chan and Heng Ji with a face that was no longer as grim as before; instead, it radiated a powerful confidence that matched his newfound strength.
Lei Chan and the others were puzzled by Fang Lin Kong's sudden display of extraordinary courage. However, the readings on their detectors showed that Fang Lin Kong's spiritual power index had not only remained unchanged but had also decreased slightly due to the previous battle's consumption. They exchanged glances, both reflecting their mutual confusion. Just moments ago, Fang Lin Kong's imposing presence had left them stunned, preventing them from making the first move.
With his confidence swelling, Fang Lin Kong noticed that his opponents had yet to react. He slowly spoke, "Killing that Lagus Ting is not my fault; your other companions who died have nothing to do with me. However, if you wish to continue fighting, I will no longer be so easy to bully."
Lei Chan shouted angrily, "Kid! The Tartarus clan is not like those despicable humans. No matter what excuses you make, killing our Tartarus kin means you must die! At most, I will let you die without too much humiliation."
Fang Lin Kong gritted his teeth, feeling the muscles in his jaw twitch as he could no longer suppress the anger within him.
"Then why are we still talking? Let’s fight! Let’s see who dies more disgracefully!"
As soon as Fang Lin Kong finished speaking, he closed his eyes. He silently recalled the experiences imparted to him by Future Seer. Although he still could not fully understand that mysterious level, he vaguely grasped some of its essence.
Faced with such a formidable enemy, Fang Lin Kong's actions seemed to belittle everyone around him. Gale Sea could no longer contain herself. With a graceful flick of her delicate hand, she threw out a perfectly round and translucent sphere. This time she did not rely solely on her Olimiga power for a direct attack. The object she used operated on principles similar to modern grenades; it had various names in the demon world depending on its type—armor-piercing, explosive energy—due to different encapsulated energies. There were also special types like flame, ice crystal, curse, and plague. However, they were generally referred to as energy bombs. While their power might not necessarily surpass that of Fighting Spheres, their effectiveness depended on the size of the encapsulated energy rather than the user's strength; thus they were more frequently used in lower-tier battles.
Fang Lin Kong was completely immersed in a wondrous sensation as if Gale Sea's thrown object moved at an incredibly slow speed. He could clearly analyze where this explosive object should not be touched and where it was more solid. It felt as though someone was guiding him from Fate itself; in an instant, Fang Lin Kong retracted his defensive shield and gently reached out to catch the energy bomb thrown by Gale Sea.
To everyone's astonishment, Fang Lin Kong tightened his grip lightly around the energy bomb in his hand. It exploded with ferocious energy within a space of less than fifteen centimeters in his palm; however, it did not harm him in the slightest.
An invisible yet incredibly solid Energy Shield firmly contained the power of the energy blast within a narrow space.
Fang Lin Kong's gaze turned sharp, an unprecedented killing intent suddenly erupting from him.
Lei Chan glanced at Heng Ji, the shock in his eyes clearly expressing his inner turmoil.
This kind of technique was beyond his capabilities, and Heng Ji could not achieve it either. This was not something that could be accomplished with just over a thousand Spirit Value. The energy required to form the shield was not particularly strong, but the control over that energy was extraordinarily precise. Without near-perfect control, such a feat would require energy levels far exceeding theirs.
However, Lei Chan was also a person of unwavering determination. He faced the suddenly enigmatic Fang Lin Kong without fear. Before Heng Ji, he issued a challenge to Fang Lin Kong.
"We initially wanted to take revenge for Omega and did not think much of you. However, since you possess such strength now, I will give you a fair opportunity. If you can defeat me, I will let you go. In the future, no one from the Tartarus clan will trouble you!"
Fang Lin Kong found Lei Chan's proposal quite tempting, but in this materialistic society, especially growing up in a China where public trust had completely collapsed, he did not believe in the promises made by others. A certain elder's famous saying—question everything!—was a truth many adhered to, and he was one of its followers.
Seeing Fang Lin Kong seemingly hesitating, Lei Chan urged him on: "Are you a man or not? Do you need to think about this for so long? Even if you don't believe what I say, will your situation improve?"
Although Lei Chan appeared careless, this proposal revealed his cunning nature. If Fang Lin Kong overthought it, it would naturally weaken his fighting spirit and diminish his momentum. A timid opponent was far easier to deal with than one willing to take risks.
Fang Lin Kong's retort about whether he was a man ignited his temper. Without hesitation, he spread his fingers wide and extended his hand toward Lei Chan, saying, "Do you want me to pull out what's in my pants to show you if I'm a man? Why don't you take yours out and show me its size?"
Though Lei Chan was bold, he certainly did not dare to expose himself in such a manner. He found Fang Lin Kong's suggestion ridiculous and did not respond.
Fang Lin Kong was unafraid of comparing sizes with Lei Chan; the Giant Spirit Transformation allowed him to enlarge any part of his body several times over. Although Lei Chan stood over 190 centimeters tall, his endowment could only reach about 20 centimeters at most—nowhere near Fang Lin Kong's "extraordinary talent."
Having gained the upper hand in momentum against Lei Chan, Fang Lin Kong retracted his outstretched right hand and clenched it into a fist. A burst of white flames suddenly erupted around him. The white flames spread from his back to his fist, making Fang Lin Kong appear like a fiery statue; combined with the resolute expression on his face, he looked incredibly cool.
Seeing Fang Lin Kong wielding such power eased Lei Chan's tension. Although this power seemed strange, the Source of Olimega from the Tartarus clan specialized in countering fire-based true energy.
"Those who strike first have the advantage! I don't know what kind of power this kid has gained from Gouli Heaven's Tome, but I won't give him any chance to unleash it!"
Although Lei Chan was more powerful in energy than Fang Lin Kong, the image of Fang Lin Kong's turtle-shell-like shield had left a deep impression on him. He feared that Fang Lin Kong might conjure something strange again, so the water currents formed by Olimiga around him suddenly surged and swirled violently. The already murky water became even darker and more profound.
Fang Lin Kong, after all, had limited combat experience and had not fully absorbed the insights left by Future Seer. He allowed Lei Chan to gather his power without interference.
Since Lei Chan intended to fight alone, Heng Ji and the others moved away to keep their distance. Soon, dark clouds began to gather around Lei Chan, rapidly expanding.
"I bet you still don't know how many ways there are to fight! Let me teach you a lesson now, kid!"
Fang Lin Kong confronted the rolling dark clouds and closed his eyes once more.
The bright white flames surrounding him suddenly extinguished.
"Nine Heavens Primordial Demon Flame! It is a flame that comes from the very essence of life; its power lies not in destruction but in erosion! The terrifying ability of Nine Heavens Primordial Demon Flame is its capacity to devour all life!"
This was the first time Fang Lin Kong used a second treasure from the Four Treasures of the Demon Gate besides the Great Freedom Heaven Realm Seven Treasures Banner to face an enemy. However, he did not feel as confident as he appeared. Gathering the Nine Heavens Primordial Demon Flame in his palm, he let the rolling clouds sweep past him while silently waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
By using the Nine Heavens Primordial Demon Flame, a treasure that absorbed life and souls, Fang Lin Kong had made up his mind to defeat his enemy in one blow.
He could see that among these people, Lei Chan and Heng Ji posed the greatest threat; while the others were not easy opponents either, he did not fear them.
The dark clouds created by Lei Chan emitted an extremely intense aura. Fang Lin Kong's detector quickly formed a series of signal hotspots that became ineffective. He could only condense his mental energy into thin strands and send them out to locate Lei Chan's true position.
Without Future Seer's assistance, Fang Lin Kong could no longer grasp everything happening outside with ease. He did not possess that kind of omnipotent Divine Ability, but the experience from that moment had given him endless insights. Being able to understand the enemy's movements at any time during battle would allow victory to be determined in an instant—making it almost inevitable.
However, as Fang Lin Kong sent out his probing strands of mental energy, they quickly brought him an overwhelming amount of information. It felt as if he were submerged in an ocean filled with countless creatures stirring around him. Each creature exuded an incredibly strong aura; Spiritual Waves acted like numerous radars scanning for his presence.
"What is this?!"
Fang Lin Kong initially doubted whether he was hallucinating due to some spell, but soon his instincts told him that those creatures were indeed real. Surrounded by thick dark clouds, Fang Lin Kong gradually adapted to the pitch-black environment and could vaguely sense the hostility around him.
Before long, he saw a massive fish, three meters long with sharp teeth, charging towards him.
Fang Lin Kong swiftly countered, unleashing a beam of pure white flame. The enormous fish was engulfed by the destructive soul fire from the Demon Abyss, quickly losing its vitality. By the time it reached Fang Lin Kong, it had already rolled its eyes back and turned into a lifeless carcass.
At the same time, Fang Lin Kong felt a pleasant energy flowing into his body. Astonishment mixed with the wonder of the Nine Heavens Primordial Demon Flame filled him. The treasure from the Demon Gate now in his possession seemed immensely powerful and mysterious. If someone else were to wield it against him... Fang Lin Kong shuddered at the thought.
He realized that the dark clouds released by Lei Chan resembled a combat space. However, the environment inside was peculiar; it could simulate an oceanic setting, and all creatures here would become Lei Chan's subordinates.
Hidden within the clouds, Lei Chan observed as Fang Lin Kong killed the large fish without concern. If Fang Lin Kong lacked even this ability, Lei Chan would have found it strange.
The technique he practiced was called Universal Cosmos. Although its highest form was said to be able to simulate an entire universe and create any desired life forms—mountains, rivers, oceans—and even form his own planet, Lei Chan could currently only combine it with the Tartarus tribe's Olimiga to create this cloud teeming with millions of creatures. Every giant fish and sea monster here was captured by Lei Chan himself from the depths of the ocean.
Fang Lin Kong's mental threads had not yet detected Lei Chan when he was already distracted by thousands of fish. Under Lei Chan's command, the deep-sea creatures within the clouds were far more ferocious and active than they would be in the ocean, their speed incomparable to that in water.
With the first giant fish leading the charge, these bizarre deep-sea species surged toward Fang Lin Kong as if they had encountered an irresistible delicacy.
Fang Lin Kong's Nine Heavens Primordial Demon Flame erupted like pillars of fire at times and coiled into pure white whips at others. In his hands, it transformed freely; what had initially felt somewhat awkward became increasingly adept as the battle intensified.
Wave after wave of vitality and soul fire flowed into Fang Lin Kong's body. He felt invigorated both physically and mentally; each influx of life energy made him want to shout with joy. He wished for this battle to continue endlessly.
Lei Chan drove the school of fish to harass Fang Lin Kong. He certainly did not place his hopes on these fish; no matter how fierce they were, they were insufficient to defeat Fang Lin Kong. He only needed to create a situation where Fang Lin Kong was overwhelmed.
The pure white flame in Fang Lin Kong's hand puzzled Lei Chan for quite some time; his detector showed:
Life Form: Humanoid Lifeform.
Race: Uncertain.
Spirit Power Level: One thousand one hundred sixty-two, gradually weakening.
Ultimate Skill Assessment: No data available.
Combat Power Assessment: Above average for the same spirit power level, with limitless potential.
Energy Nature: From another realm.
Victory Estimate: Less than thirty-seven percent.
From another realm! Lei Chan found this assessment somewhat acceptable. After all, the rumors connecting Fang Lin Kong's abilities to the Dark World's top treasure, Gouli Heaven's Tome, had been circulating for quite some time, though it had yet to attract much attention. First, he could form an unprecedented Powerful Shield, and now he was emitting such peculiar energy.
Lei Chan pondered to himself, "If I were to spread this news about Gouli Heaven's Tome and its strange energy variations, I fear that many military groups would want to capture this kid for dissection!"
It seemed that Fang Lin Kong sensed Lei Chan's thoughts, as after he obliterated yet another fierce Strange Fish, he shivered deeply.
