Sweeping both worlds: Starting from idealistic martial arts

Chapter 272 Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse! Ji Donglai! Makes a Grand Entrance!

'Are we ready to begin?' Fang Can's heart skipped a beat.

As Xiang Hongtu landed in a high-profile manner atop Guiyun Peak in a jade chariot pulled by a third-level martial artist.

The nineteen lotus thrones with owners represent the nineteen fourth-stage rebirths.

Fang Can stood on the central stone platform, his white hair flying wildly in the strong wind.

He glanced around the scene without making a sound, and felt somewhat relaxed.

Since Liu Qingmeng wasn't there, and none of the other fourth-tier cultivators present had anything to do with him, he could act with peace of mind.

As for Yan Chuqing? They were just acquaintances who had once shared a meal with Niu Zi.

Fang Can could only silently wish that the other party would survive the upcoming battle.

The situation isn't ideal, but it's still within an acceptable range.

If the martial artists I've seen before were all the same in terms of strength, then these people now are exceptionally rare, one in a million.

For example, the Blazing Kingdom team, whose aura was just like that of an ordinary person, occupied three lotus platforms.

In Fang Can's eyes, none of these people had anything to do with martial arts. They were all out of shape, with weak blood and qi, and no different from ordinary people.

However, through the intelligence he gathered, Fang Can understood that this was a characteristic of the warriors of the Blazing Kingdom.

This country is one of the five great nations in the martial arts world.

Every warrior of the Blazing Kingdom sacrifices their lifeblood after ascending the Heavenly Road, in exchange for returning to ordinary life and borrowing external objects.

At that time, with the help of external objects, these warriors from the Blazing Kingdom will be able to unleash combat power far exceeding that of their peers.

According to currently available information, the entire Blazing Kingdom is dominated by three major factions.

After ascending to heaven, each lineage has a different name for its ritual implements, and the lineages are as follows:

【Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse】, 【Masked Force】, and 【Super Meter】!
Now that these three representatives have gathered, each possessing a unique lineage, Fang Can finds them somewhat troublesome.

But the one that caught Fang Can's attention the most was a blond, innocent, and naive boy led by a third-level martial artist.

During Fang Can's special attention, the blond boy spoke in a dialect that no one could understand, and curiously asked the three-turned-man beside him all sorts of questions.

When faced with the boy's questions, Sanzhuan respectfully answered each one, while also acting as the boy's translator.

A powerful cultivator who could rule a city in the outside world was only fit to be a translator for this young man?
The fact that he can occupy the lotus platform alone means that his strength has reached the fourth level!
But there was no record of this guy in any of Fang Can's previous intelligence reports!

It was said that when a martial artist breaks through to the fourth level, they will be in accordance with the will of Heaven, and all living beings within a radius of ten thousand miles will feel it.
In theory, every fourth-level martial artist in the entire martial arts world should be recorded and cannot be concealed!
Why is there zero information about this fourth job advancement?

Intelligence is a crucial element in battle!
Without knowing their identity and true nature, one cannot know what methods they use.

If it were some kind of inheritance that kills instantly upon contact, most martial artists wouldn't be able to avoid it without a significant difference in cultivation level.

Even if Fang Can gets the first move, he is not guaranteed to win.

Let's just hope it's not some outrageous inheritance, and that we can wipe them out in the first wave!

If you can't kill them, you can only try to figure out their background and heritage through battle.

But Fang Can's intuition told him that this seemingly innocent blond boy was one of the most troublesome people among them!

A fourth-level translator who can't even speak Mandarin and needs a third-level translator to act as a translator?
Strange! Strange! Strange!
Just as Fang Can was observing, he saw Xiang Hongtu arrive in a palanquin. The sand whale, which had been watching nearby, smiled ingratiatingly and said:
"Emperor Chu, where are the other four generals of Great Chu? Why did you come alone?"

"All people under heaven are subjects of the king. As the supreme emperor of the Great Chu, my will represents that of all the people of the Great Chu."

Xiang Hongtu clenched his fist, his posture exuding a strong domineering aura that brooked no argument.

After saying this, facing the many people who had turned around, he looked at Fang Can and said, "You are destined to be with Ziyu, so I will consider you your father. Why don't you kneel down to show your filial piety to me?"

'shameless.'

Upon hearing Xiang Hongtu's words, most of the martial artists present turned pale.

Does Fang Can himself know that he is your son-in-law?

Of course, they also knew that this was just a rhetoric used by a manipulative scheme to build connections.

She wanted to use this opportunity to get closer to Fang Can and gain more benefits by being his guardian.

Faced with Si Zhuan's gaze, Fang Can felt immense pressure all over his body.

My heart felt as if it were being squeezed tightly by a hand.

This was the sound of his body sending a warning signal to his brain after he realized the difference in strength between himself and his opponent, an attempt to escape the other's gaze.

The best way to escape the gaze is to kneel down.

Just because of what Si Zhuan said, Fang Can felt an urge to kneel down.

Faced with this oppression, Fang Can felt happy!

Because he did not feel that he was inferior to anyone else.

Sooner or later, I will be able to reach the fourth level or even higher in the future.

The pressure from the other party at the moment was just allowing Fang Can to get a glimpse of his future version!

So, at this moment, Fang Can was thinking:
'Is this what fourth job advancement is? This is amazing! When I reach fourth job advancement, I'll make even lower-level enemies kneel before me with just a glance!'

Faced with Xiang Hongtu's questioning, Fang Can, enduring the pressure of a fourth-rank cultivator, laughed and said, "Is that so? Even if my own father hanged himself in front of me, I wouldn't even flinch."

"Even if you really are my father-in-law, why should I kneel before you just because you're a fourth-rank cultivator?"

"When I reach the fifth or sixth level of rank in the future, can you kneel back and kowtow to me a few more times?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the eyebrows of all the martial artists present rose sharply. They all felt that Fang Can was incredibly arrogant; even as a prisoner, he still dared to speak so arrogantly.

Sand Whale thought to himself, 'What an arrogant brat! Even though I'm also a fourth-rank cultivator, I wouldn't dare to be so arrogant in front of Emperor Chu.'

For a moment, everyone looked at Xiang Hongtu with the eyes of a spectator, wondering how he planned to deal with this troublemaker.

Upon closer inspection, however, Xiang Hongtu showed no anger whatsoever; instead, he looked at Fang Can with admiration.

At that moment, Xiang Hongtu felt only: This boy is like me!

Perhaps because he had beaten his own father to death, Xiang Hongtu felt that the first half of Fang Can's words resonated deeply with him.

The anger Fang Can felt when she feminized Xiang Longtao had long since dissipated on the night Xiang Longtao fulfilled her filial duty to him.

Seeing Fang Can, who was so similar to himself, he felt even more strongly about taking Fang Can as his son-in-law and having Fang Can and Xiang Longtao fulfill their filial duties together!
Although he was making plans in his mind, the emperor's authority could not be insulted.

Faced with Fang Can's questioning, Xiang Hongtu clenched his right fist and sneered, "You sharp-tongued brat, but unfortunately, arrogance requires capital."

“And I happen to have it!” Fang Can said calmly, shrugging his shoulders.

"Ignorant child, it seems you don't understand the difference between realms."

Xiang Hongtu sneered, his body remaining still, only slightly bending his knuckles.

This barely perceptible movement caused the sea of ​​clouds, spanning hundreds of feet in radius, to twist into visible spiral ripples.

"Your Majesty!"

The two words, seemingly casual, carried an imperial majesty.

The next moment, the sea of ​​clouds swirling above Guiyun Peak burst open, and an immense pressure descended from above onto Fang Can on the stone platform.

The terrifying energy rippled outwards, and seeing the distorted sense of oppression, all the martial artists below the fourth level of cultivation changed color.

This attack was beyond their ability to withstand; if they tried to take it head-on, their bodies would only be reduced to dust.

The power of a fourth-tier cultivator! Terrifying indeed!
Looking at the white-haired, red-eyed youth, Xiang Hongtu certainly didn't intend to kill him outright.

With his fourth-level mastery of power, he was 100% confident that he could make the boy in front of him kneel and not die.

After all, the prestige of a fourth-rank official cannot be dishonored.

It's time to let this young man, who just won the inter-nation competition a few days ago, see the absolute difference between each level of the Heavenly Path.

Looking up at the golden finger mark falling from the sky, even before it hit him, Fang Can felt tens of thousands of tons of gravity pulling at his body.

'If I get hit, I'll probably be forced to the ground by the terrifying pressure, just like when Lin Dong first met Lin Langtian.'

This thought suddenly popped into Fang Can's mind.

Almost instantly, with a loud boom, golden energy pressed down on the central stone platform, instantly turning the hard stone platform into dust.

The bottom layer, which was purchased from the Five Demon Sect, and the glazed energy-suppressing bricks that could absorb kinetic energy when laid on the ground, also shattered instantly.

With a casual strike from Xiang Hongtu, the entire mountain peak trembled violently, and the upper half of the peak showed signs of cracking.

But after the attack, Xiang Hongtu's originally calm expression changed slightly.

The expressions of the four people who were originally watching the show also became slightly serious.

Because at this moment, Fang Can's figure had disappeared from the center of the stone platform.

Instead, there was a middle-aged man with scars on his face and a weak, pale complexion.

No one could see how the middle-aged man appeared; everyone could only guess that it was some kind of swapping ability.

The middle-aged man was Ji Donglai, who had been lying in wait in Dayan for three days.

Let's rewind four days.

Before they traveled to the present world, Fang Can handed Ji Donglai a digital watch and a meson nano-star ribbon.

"Boss Ji, this belt is a storage belt, containing ten cubic meters of space."

"While it cannot store life, some weapons can be stored here."

"As for this digital watch, it will be linked to my luck."

"If I run into trouble, it will break down prematurely. Remember to contact me as soon as it breaks down."

……

Returning to reality, Ji Donglai almost instantly crossed space and arrived inside Guiyun Peak.

According to the effect of the teleportation ability, Ji Donglai's body should have pushed aside the matter at the teleportation location.

However, due to the fact that the internal space is accessible only to those with superpowers.

The overlap of their figures resulted in Fang Can's body being swapped into Ji Donglai's internal space, leaving him to bear the force that descended from the sky alone.

Facing the four gazes, Ji Donglai's expression was filled with emotion.

It felt like time had rewound to many years ago, to the passionate and striving years before the founding of the new nation!
'This familiar sense of threat...it seems it's time to risk everything for the superpowered again.'

With a cold smile, Ji Donglai looked around the room and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you all. My family has been well taken care of by you all!"

"Next, let me, the parent, take charge."

"Come and be my opponent!"
