Fang Lin Kong let out a roar, not even aware of the nonsensical words escaping his lips. A flame suddenly erupted from his hand, forming the Flame Sword, and he clashed it against his opponent. It wasn't until he realized that this Flame Sword was actually emitted from his Frodham's Horn that an inexplicable shock coursed through him.
Not only had his body transformed into a bizarre warrior of Azure Glow, but even the Frodham's Horn in his hand had been altered. It had taken on the form most suitable for unleashing its power, and all the array formations he had previously set up had vanished.
"What on earth is this place? What kind of cursed thing have I turned into?"
Before Fang Lin Kong could delve deeper into his thoughts, he was besieged by the relentless Colorfeather Warriors from the Golden Radiance, plunging him into chaos.
Boom!
After yet another violent clash, the portion of azure light surrounding Fang Lin Kong broke free from contact with the Golden Radiance. At this point, he was battered and exhausted. Despite the abundant spiritual energy in this place, healing his wounds was no simple task; the brief skirmish had already drained him both physically and mentally.
Given his current form, Fang Lin Kong wanted to communicate with other warriors in Azure Glow to see if there was any useful information to gather. However, as he looked around, he noticed that there were more beasts than humanoid beings nearby. Although there were two warriors standing upright and relatively close, they appeared fierce and beast-like in appearance. With massive jaws and sharp fangs, their eyes burned like torches. Fang Lin Kong shouted a few times, but they showed no response, extinguishing any hope he had of communication.
"What are these creatures? They look so unintelligent!"
Taking a deep breath, Fang Lin Kong quickly regained his composure. Embracing the idea of making the best of his situation, he felt little concern for his predicament. After observing his surroundings for a while, he spotted a fearsome beast nearby and decided to seize it. Climbing onto its back, he felt a sense of pride: "Thank goodness I've arrived in Azure Glow; otherwise, how would I have found a mount? Here, there are more beasts than people. In Golden Radiance, there are more people than beasts; with so many running around, there's no way I could enjoy such luxuries as a newcomer!"
The beast initially exuded an intimidating aura but became docile under Fang Lin Kong's presence. It allowed him to ride without resistance. With his feet spared from exhaustion, Fang Lin Kong took the opportunity to survey his environment.
Every clash between Golden Radiance and Azure Glow sparked fierce battles. Fang Lin Kong had just experienced that taste; it seemed every warrior aimed to kill each other without any hint of compromise. Yet here, the environment was strange—unless one was killed in a single blow, no matter how severe the injuries sustained, they would recover rapidly. After observing for some time, Fang Lin Kong did not see anyone who had been cornered and killed outright.
While the warriors in Golden Radiance appeared more refined in appearance, they were equally ferocious as those on his side. Although the warriors in Azure Glow looked menacing, they didn't seem to gain much advantage either.
Moreover, Fang Lin Kong discovered that no matter how he moved, he couldn't escape the azure light. Seeking a quieter spot within Azure Glow to avoid conflict with the warriors of Golden Radiance was impossible; both streams of light were constantly shifting. No matter where one tried to go, they would be drawn back into battle.
Fang Lin Kong found himself at the forefront of Azure Glow but could not see where its tail ended. He roughly calculated the density of life within these two streams of light: within just a few kilometers' length, there were thousands of warriors densely packed within the azure glow.
A few hours later, Fang Lin Kong once again found himself in the throes of battle. This time, he appeared a bit more relaxed, wielding Frodham's Horn, a sword of blazing flames, as he struck down several enemy warriors.
Fang Lin Kong had no idea what the purpose of this meaningless fight was. All he wanted was to survive until the two rays of light diverged. As he pushed back a colorful armored warrior, an inexplicable fear suddenly enveloped his heart.
Turning around, Fang Lin Kong saw a warrior riding an Eight-Colored Pegasus charging towards him. The armor worn by this warrior was unlike that of any other; while the warriors from Golden Radiance wore elegant armor that only covered their chests and waists, leaving their arms and thighs exposed, this warrior was completely encased in vibrant, multicolored armor, even his head concealed beneath an exquisite helmet.
Sensing the murderous intent radiating from his opponent, Fang Lin Kong felt a chill run down his spine. The strength of this warrior was clearly several times greater than that of his companions. Fang Lin Kong sighed inwardly at his misfortune but knew he had to think of his own life. He desperately retreated deeper into Azure Glow, trying to avoid a showdown with the rider of the Eight-Colored Pegasus.
However, the Eight-Colored Pegasus was far faster than any beast Fang Lin Kong could summon. As the Pegasus galloped through the air, its hooves barely touching the ground, the warrior atop it brandished a spear that gleamed with golden light, intricately carved with beautiful patterns. Fang Lin Kong couldn't help but groan inwardly. A powerful aura had already locked onto him; seeing no way to escape, he gritted his teeth and cursed, "If you want my life, then I'll fight you! Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade, come to me!"
After transforming into a beast warrior, Fang Lin Kong checked himself and found that this divine weapon had not been lost; he had been aware of it for quite some time. Now facing a life-or-death crisis, he could no longer afford to hesitate. With a low shout, he poured at least half of his spiritual energy into the Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade and prepared to go all out.
As the rider of the Eight-Colored Pegasus closed in on him, he let out a low growl and thrust his spear forward at Fang Lin Kong's back.
Waiting for his opponent to strike first, Fang Lin Kong saw the spear launch towards him and swung his arm fiercely. The Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade erupted with brilliant light and slashed out like lightning.
Fang Lin Kong did not wish to perish alongside his opponent; thus, he conserved half of his spiritual energy. After unleashing the Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade, Frodham's Horn in his hand also ignited with unprecedented flames and arced toward the spear aimed at his back.
Clang!
With a sharp sound, Fang Lin Kong was sent reeling by the immense force behind the spear. His fiery sword shattered into sparks as he managed to shrink back just in time to avoid being pierced through the chest by the spear. However, it still grazed off-target and pierced through his shoulder.
The tremendous impact sent Fang Lin Kong tumbling back into the depths of Azure Glow. In that fleeting moment, as he turned back, he caught sight of the rider of the Eight-Colored Pegasus wearing an expression of disbelief. The power infused into the Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade was not to be underestimated. Even a Divine Beast like White Dragon could be harmed by such a weapon; despite the warrior's strength, he could not withstand it. Fang Lin Kong watched in astonishment as the Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade cleaved the warrior in two.
The golden and azure rays finally separated once more. As Fang Lin Kong retracted the Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade, he noticed that the warrior who had been cut in half transformed into a fragment of Golden Radiance that attached itself to the blade as it returned. In that instant, Fang Lin Kong felt a surge of powerful energy flooding into him; that fragment of Golden Radiance brought with it an endless source of strength.
"This is it! So that's how it works!"
Having gained the energy of the Eight-Colored Pegasus Warrior, Fang Lin Kong's body underwent another transformation. His already tall and strong physique was adorned with strange totems, depicting an unusual pattern on his firm skin. Although Fang Lin Kong did not understand the meaning of these markings, he could sense the powerful and terrifying force hidden within them.
Moreover, not only did his body change, but even his beast-skin armor took on a more rugged and savage appearance. The armor on his upper body featured two spiked shoulder guards, while the wrist straps became thicker and sturdier. Even the boots on his feet were equipped with sharp backward-facing spikes.
After several battles, Fang Lin Kong gradually grasped the fighting patterns in this place. He realized that he could only gain an opportunity to enhance his abilities after defeating an enemy. If he managed to kill a warrior of a higher rank than himself by chance, he would receive enough energy to undergo a transformation.
Each transformation granted these warriors greater strength, and the two streams of radiant light would push stronger warriors toward the rear. The opponents Fang Lin Kong encountered afterward were significantly more powerful, with enemies of the same caliber as the Eight-Colored Pegasus Warrior becoming increasingly common.
In battle, Fang Lin Kong continuously mastered more powerful combat techniques while accumulating combat experience. Soon, he had slain another warrior mounted on a Five-Colored Phoenix and gained another chance for evolution.
Constantly killing and enhancing his power, Fang Lin Kong gradually became immersed in bloodshed and slaughter. To ensure his survival, he focused solely on perfecting his next move, determining which spells suited various combat situations, and how to apply them more precisely. He no longer thought about anything else.
Countless brutal clashes against nearly endlessly regenerating foes made Fang Lin Kong think only of how to leave his enemies with no escape in a single strike. The battlefield was the best place to hone calmness and composure, as well as to cultivate killing intent and fighting spirit. The warriors he faced grew stronger, and their techniques became increasingly sophisticated. Correspondingly, Fang Lin Kong's methods became more ruthless, and his achievements more glorious.
After experiencing his sixteenth evolution, the energy required for his next evolution reached an unpredictable level. Fang Lin Kong could no longer keep track of how many enemy warriors he had killed or how many exotic beasts and divine birds had been sealed within the Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade.
Despite being blinded by slaughter, Fang Lin Kong never forgot to attempt to tear open rifts in space during breaks between battles. He practiced with treasures like the Flying Sword, aiming to reach a state where Sword and Body were One—an ultimate realm of Spiritual Refinement. At this stage, treasures became as integral to a practitioner as their own body, wielded with incredible precision and agility. The bond between the treasure and its master rivaled that of ordinary Divine Refinement treasures. With each evolution, Fang Lin Kong's spiritual energy grew stronger; however, its fluctuations underwent fundamental changes. The energy that once communicated with the Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade had to be destroyed and rebuilt anew. Thus, although Fang Lin Kong was becoming increasingly powerful, he still saw no hope of escaping this mysterious world of slaughter.
Having spent considerable time here, Fang Lin Kong also noticed that besides the two streams of azure and golden radiance, other forms of life existed. Some were drawn into these lights when they passed by, becoming part of either faction's warriors. Others seemed to possess an innate understanding of the dangers posed by these lights; they either avoided them from afar or employed various means to escape their allure.
The endpoints of the azure and golden radiance remained out of sight. Fang Lin Kong did not know how this way of life would come to an end.
Once again, as the azure and golden lights twisted and collided, Fang Lin Kong returned to the battlefield—not as a novice anymore. During moments of respite from fighting, he began paying attention to the divine beasts within the Golden Radiance. Like any ordinary child, Fang Lin Kong developed a slight obsession with collecting unique creatures. Whenever he spotted mounts with extraordinary abilities or striking appearances, he would seal them within the Heavenly Edge Reversal Blade. This ancient immortal treasure held countless mysteries; using it to seal divine beasts was remarkably effective.
After consecutively slaying four enemy warriors, Fang Lin Kong noticed an unusual glow—a round blue light that stood out vividly on the battlefield. He also observed that whenever an exotic beast approached this blue light, it would vanish without a trace. Whether it was a beast from the Azure Glow or a spirit bird from the Golden Radiance, none could escape its pull.
"This thing is quite peculiar; I should go catch it!"
Fang Lin Kong muttered to himself, pushing aside two enemy warriors as he rushed toward the blue light, reaching out to grab it.
As his hand extended, a wave of disgust washed over him, as if a voice was incessantly assaulting his eardrums with noise, urging him to abandon the blue light. Fang Lin Kong forced himself to endure this feeling of revulsion, spreading his fingers wide and grasping down hard. He felt as if he had touched a cloth bag. At that moment, the azure and golden rays of light split apart again, and Fang Lin Kong dared not linger in the Golden Radiance, quickly retreating.
“Hey! Azure God Brother, grabbing me won’t do you any good. Why not just let me go?”
After retreating into the Azure Glow, Fang Lin Kong was about to examine his spoils when he suddenly heard someone speaking from within the blue light, startling him. It was the first time he had encountered something that could talk in this place.
Curiosity piqued, Fang Lin Kong replied, “What are you? Why are you here?”
The person within the blue light seemed taken aback. After a moment of hesitation, they stammered, “My Lord Azure God, how can you speak?”
Fang Lin Kong was even more intrigued by this response and said, “What’s so surprising about speaking? You’re the one acting all sneaky; I find that quite strange!”
The figure in the blue light suddenly chuckled and said, “You startled me! I thought the Azure Deity Sage could actually speak. Turns out you’re one of my kindred spirits; your transformation is just like that of the Azure God—truly remarkable.”
At this point, Fang Lin Kong's curiosity reached its peak as he loudly demanded, “Azure Deity Sage? What is that? You’re not making any sense; this is getting boring!”
Azure Deity Sage! That means...
Just as the figure in the blue light was about to respond, an unexpected change occurred.
