Chapter 316: Grey-robed Marquis (asking for monthly votes)
'Transcendent? Why do I feel like I am one?'
"No, it's my golden finger..."
Fang Xing's eyes lit up when he heard this: "So, what level of cultivation is yours, Senior?"
"My realm?"
The gray-robed man smiled and said, "You may not understand it now. You just need to know that in the past, even if I went to a high-level cosmic civilization, I would be treated as a distinguished guest... As for the primary and intermediate civilizations, I could even sweep through them."
"That's really powerful..." Fang Xing showed a yearning look.
"So...are you willing to accept the test and try to become my disciple?"
There was a hint of anticipation in the gray-robed man's voice.
Fang Xing began to ponder.
According to common sense, this should of course be agreed to.
But who knows what methods such a strong man will use? What if he has to sign some contract or oath... or even not only bind Li Ying, but also his own will. That would be a lot of fun.
In this world, I don’t know if I can come back in the future! If I am directly judged as in breach of contract and then pay a heavy price, it would be a big loss.
"Why? You don't want to?"
The gray-robed man spoke again.
'This will... is anxious.' Fang Xing nodded in his heart: 'As expected... his emotions are clearly visible on his face. He is not a real strong man. He should really be just a projection, or even worse, just an intelligent computer program... There are many rules that cannot be violated.'
For example, you can only choose human geniuses judged by the previous standards.
Then, the scope is limited to the planet of Daxia! 'Even if you don't meet the standards, you can't just 'pull people'... Otherwise, if it were me, I would definitely try many times and cast a wide net to catch fish...'
He had made up his mind and said, "Senior, I have a question in my mind... Was the disaster of the 'Borderland' that Daxia faced caused by you in order to select a successor?"
For this kind of great power, it is also important to judge the other party's temperament, likes and dislikes, and style of doing things.
Although Fang Xing doesn't think he is a good person, he still hopes that there are more good people among the people he interacts with.
It is always a little more reassuring to associate with the righteous than with the evil.
"Of course not... The appearance of the border is an overlap of space, which can be regarded as a cosmic wonder and natural change."
The gray-robed man shook his head: "I cannot interfere with the natural evolution of the planet. I can only wait silently for the emergence of qualified people... Then, are you willing to accept the trial?"
"If I agree to become your student, what kind of oath do I have to sign?"
Fang Xing continued to avoid the question.
"You need to swear to this 'Yuanzhong Temple' that you must kill the 'Master of Blood Yuan Mountain' for me within ten thousand epochs, and then, when you are able, you must resurrect me." said the gray-robed man.
"Yuanzhong Temple?"
Fang Xing looked at the gray-white stone palaces around him.
"This treasure is extremely rare and precious even in the pinnacle of cosmic civilization... As long as you pass the trial and swear, I will give it to you." said the gray-robed man.
'Obviously... this treasure has a very strong binding force!'
Fang Xing really didn't dare to gamble.
But at this time, he said so much just to delay time.
Moreover, even if he got the 'Yuanzhong Temple', he couldn't bring it back with him because he could travel through the Gate of the Heavens with his will...
"I wonder what the test is?"
Fang Xing asked.
"You have watched 'Rhapsody of Fiery Flames' and have gained some understanding of one of the mystical powers... but that is only a tiny part of the mysteries of fire, and is not enough to prove your comprehension and talent... Although I have prepared resources for future disciples, the more powerful you are, the more top-level resources you need, and the lower the margin of error. Therefore, you must continue to prove yourself."
The Gray Cannon Man waved his hand and took Fang Xing to another hall.
There are dozens of "fireballs" in the void! In the fireballs, there are all kinds of inheritances.
Fang Xing saw several metal books that he had seen before. In addition, there were even more bizarre carriers, such as fire jade, feathers, scales...
"The universe is vast and endless... so is the path of the strong."
At this time, the voice of the gray-robed man came slowly: "From the mysteries to the laws, from the laws to the great principles... Here are thirty-six volumes of the Book of the Mysteries of Fire. If you can comprehend something and truly enter the 'Law of Fire', then I will accept you as my disciple and grant you enough resources for a breakthrough... By the way, you must do this within ten years."
"So this is the test..."
Fang Xing understood.
The other party is indeed a projection of a strong man. It is impossible for him to go all in just because he sees a genius.
The normal plan is to test in stages and gradually provide guidance and breakthrough resources.
Even if you fail at the beginning, you will only lose some early resources, and the top resources later can be retained.
"If I had known it was this kind of test, I would have agreed immediately."
Fang Xing immediately took out a metal book and began to flip through it quickly.
At the same time, a thought emerged in his mind: "Mystery, law, great way?"
"I wonder what level this conceptual ability of the Extraterritorial Evil God's authority belongs to?"
…
Time flies.
This day.
Fang Xing's eyes flashed with brilliance, and his body seemed to turn into a ball of fire in an instant.
Even if one reaches the peak of the Golden Elixir stage in martial arts and builds seventy-two evil points and twelve strong meridians in the body, it can only transform one into a semi-energy life.
But in that moment just now, he seemed to have turned into a complete energy life.
What's even more amazing is that it changed back again! "The Mystery of Fire - Fire God Body! I've entered the door."
A hint of joy appeared on Fang Xing's face.
The body turns into flames in a short period of time, and the increase it brings is very terrifying.
This can not only be used for fighting, but also for daily practice.
Apart from anything else, if one could perform this kind of profound meaning in the world of cultivating immortals, it would be almost equivalent to awakening a fire-type Dao body! 'The power of rules is everywhere... As long as there is order, there are rules, or in other words, disorder is also a law...'
"There should also be rules in the world of immortal cultivation... Then even if the strong in this universe go there, they can still manipulate the rules of heaven and earth... What is this realm? At least it is the level of the God Transformation Venerable, right?"
The Venerable Huashen is already able to control the spiritual power of heaven and earth in a certain area.
In the world of cultivating immortals, the spiritual power of heaven and earth is the greatest extraordinary rule!
The more Fang Xing thought about it, the more he felt that obtaining the Gate of the Heavens was truly a supreme opportunity.
By gathering the essence of many great worlds, you may be able to truly transcend in the future!
"You actually comprehended the 'Fire God Body'?"
A gray light flashed, and a gray-robed man appeared beside Fang Xing, praising him unabashedly: "Your talent is simply unreasonable... I have been watching this planet for more than 30,000 years, and I have never seen a genius with such a keen understanding as you."
According to the other party, this gray-robed man can only observe everything on the planet Daxia.
Moreover, this can only be achieved with the help of the 'Yuan Zhong Temple'.
Even the previous ability to capture people from a distance and move people in the void were all due to the power of the Yuanzhong Temple.
After all, the man in gray was already dead, and at this point he was little more than an artificial intelligence program.
"Wait... I'm leaving soon. After I leave, Li Ying's comprehension will definitely not be as good as mine. Is this a bug? Will the identity of this prospective successor still be recognized?"
'I don't know if this grey-robed man will freeze or kill Li Ying.'
A thought suddenly emerged in Fang Xing's mind.
Then, feeling the pulling force that was already on the verge of reaching its limit, he looked at the gray-robed man and said, "I have yet to ask for your name, Senior?"
I didn’t ask at first because names carry power.
In Fang Xing's opinion, the strength of this gray-robed man was at least comparable to that of an alien evil god.
However, it seems that the enemies he provoked were also very powerful. He was killed so badly that he couldn't even be resurrected. He could only ask a stronger person to rescue him from the long river of time and space.
But Fang Xing felt a little embarrassed after seeing so much inheritance from others.
Besides, I'm already prepared to leave, so I don't care about these things.
"My name is 'Grey-robed Marquis'!"
The tone of the Gray-Robed Marquis fluctuated slightly, and he wanted to talk about some of his past.
But he suddenly felt something was wrong.
On the opposite side, Li Ying was still the same Li Ying as before, and even his true energy cultivation was still there.
But his eyes had obviously changed, even a little timid.
"What's wrong with you? Something went wrong when you were comprehending the mystery of fire? Impossible..."
The Grey-Robed Marquis was a little suspicious and even checked Li Ying's soul fluctuations, and found that everything was normal.
“I…I…”
There was a hint of trembling in Li Ying's voice.
He was just a punching bag who was bullied to death by his uncle and aunt! What comprehension, talent...
Is there really such a thing?
…
Main universe.
Xinghai Company, inside the hibernation capsule.
The hatch opened suddenly and countless white gases flowed out.
Fang Xing walked out of the hibernation capsule, feeling refreshed and radiant as if he had had a full body SPA.
"Xiao Lan, how long have I slept?"
He asked.
"Master, you slept for one month and three days, plus seven hours and sixteen minutes."
Xiao Lan's projection appeared, and she answered sweetly, "During this period, your secretary approached you six times, and Nangong Xue approached you twenty-seven times... Xiao Lan blocked them all."
“Well done!”
Fang Xing nodded, but began to compare in his mind: "Comparing the time flow speeds on both sides... they are almost the same!"
"besides……"
He glanced at the property panel and immediately discovered new information: …
[The Mystery of Fire: 77/100 (Beginner)]
[Gate of the Heavens: 1/100]
…
"As expected, even though the Mystery of Fire is difficult, I have the attribute panel. As long as I can get started and the proficiency bar lights up, I can grind to my heart's content!"
"There is also the Gate of the Heavens? Could it be... that I still have a chance to go back?"
Fang Xing's eyes lit up.
Although the Daxia planet's military power is average, that universe is obviously a treasure! Even if he only gets a little knowledge of the mysteries of fire, it can make his martial arts strength go a step further!
I just don't know if I can master the mysteries that I haven't comprehended in the main universe without being able to refer to the original secrets. Update later
