758 Swordsmanship

"The entire purple star is a huge battlefield!"

Fang Yuan casually found a palace and sat down cross-legged, his eyes glittering. "There's plenty of origin power left behind from the Mental Demon Realm's invasion, and this place is rich in secondary elemental force as well. I'm like a fish in water here!"

The large amount of concentrated origin power constantly resulted in the birth of dreadful demons on this star.

If left untouched, they would soon devour one another, catalyzing the creation of a being capable of disrupting the world.

That was why the Heavenly Court had Celestial Thearch guard the gates and sent in large batches of powerful soldiers to clear up the Mental Demon Battlefield regularly. Other than killing demons, it was also the Heavenly Court's intention to guard the seal.

There were a few higher beings from the Mental Demon Realm on the Mental Demon Battlefield that had come. Despite being defeated, they could not be killed, so they were sealed in the battlefield instead.

Their vitality was beyond imagination, and they could not be annihilated unless the entire star was refined.

"Therefore, the Mental Demon Battlefield is troublesome for the Heavenly Court, but not really a disaster… After all, it's already under control and will be refined in the future if nothing goes wrong. No wonder Consort Xiang is so anxious about saving that existence!"

After considering the situation he was in, Fang Yuan started to think about his own problems.

This place was doubtlessly a huge treasure to him. Both the origin power from the nucleus of the star and the sealed higher beings were invaluable in his mind.

Fang Yuan thought for a moment before making a decision.

"Looks like it's time to find an opportunity to act individually!"

In fact, the Gods in the army would rather stay at the base camp or follow large groups than go to the battlefield on their own.

What Fang Yuan wanted was the other way around.

"Now, I have to find an appropriate excuse…"

…

Three days passed by in a flash. In the White Jade Plaza.

This was the heart of the Heaven Palace. An announcement could be seen on a wall, recording the names of many Gods followed by their military honors.

The first few were surely six Ancient Gods, and below them were the names of Marquises written in tiny words and squeezed together.

"A Marquis must achieve at least 10,000 achievements before applying to return, and an Ancient God at least 100,000! After going back, they can turn all the achievements into heavenly honors, which can be exchanged for treasures in the Heavenly Court's treasure vault, or even directly for titles!"

These few days, Fang Yuan was disinclined to meditate and recover, and instead strolled outside, so he had already heard all of this.

"But this goal is too hard to achieve for most Gods. It's merely a carrot on a stick."

"Everyone! We guardians of the Heaven Palace are divided into seven divisions. All of you belong to my division, Vast Heaven!"

Ancient God Black Dragon appeared below the announcement in his battle armor and said with a confident demeanor, "We're new here and it's a shame that we haven't accomplished anything yet. Follow me out of the Heaven Palace and onto the battlefield to kill as many demons as possible!"

"Yes!" The Marquises complained silently, but had no choice other than following the order.

"Hmm?" Fang Yuan sensed something abnormal. "This God Black Dragon wants to kill me?"

Any superior would dislike someone who defied rules as he did, so it was perfectly normal for them to show disgust toward him.

But the killing intent was a different matter!

While Black Dragon concealed it very well, his intent could not be concealed from the detection of a Dream Master.

"We don't have anything against each other, and what happened before was not sufficient to evoke such hostility. Did someone incite him to kill me?"

Fang Yuan had a sharp mind and understood everything immediately. "So he's creating an opportunity to take my life on the battlefield? That's exactly what I want…"

…

"Let's go!"

God Black Dragon unhesitantly set out.

As a Dragon God, he had some fortune at least. He lifted his hand and a small, seven-colored sailboat emerged. The boat quickly became large and carried them onward through the air.

Fang Yuan sat cross-legged on the boat, looking around casually.

There are seven military divisions on the frontline, each led by an Ancient God supervising dozens of Marquises. The Vast Heaven Division should be the name used by the Gods who returned earlier…

"Greetings, brother. Are you Lord Mountain River?"

A God was currently squeezing his way through the crowd. He had a pair of round eyes on a smiling face. "My name is Hai Fu, and I'm Lord Cold Mountain!"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

It was common for Gods to form groups and help one another, but Fang Yuan's behavior was abnormal.

Of course, there were Gods who thought that such an abnormal behavior had to imply either surprising strength or powerful backers, and thus took the initiative to chat with him.

"So you're Lord Cold Mountain!" Fang Yuan took a quick glance at him and gave him a perfunctory smile.

"I've heard of Lord Mountain River before. You annihilated the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect, really boosting the morale of the Divine Dao…" Lord Cold Mountain did not mind his indifferent reaction and continued talking. Finally, he said what was really on his mind, "Consort Xiang has always been impartial as the Messenger Office's master. It was really rare that she would let God Black Dragon wait for your seclusion to finish…"

"If my backer was really that powerful, how would I have ended up here?"

Fang Yuan shrugged, looking as if he could see through the God's thoughts.

"Sigh… We're all unlucky!"

The fat body of Hai Fu thumped down as he said with a bitter expression, "My fate was also pathetic. I showed disrespect during Excellency Mount Mang's birthday celebration and was then sent here…"

"Disrespect in front of His Excellency?" Fang Yuan was mildly shocked.

This punishment was not too severe, but too light.

It seemed that this fat God had some capability. Otherwise, the punishment would not have been so simple.

"Sigh… The Mental Demon Battlefield is extremely dangerous. Although our leader won't take us to the three perilous lands, life will still be hard!" Hai Fu started complaining again. "There are way too many demons to kill on the Mental Demon Battlefield. Fortunately, only a few are at the level of Ancient Gods, or else even the Heaven Palace might be lost to them…

"However, there are a horrible number of Marquis-level demons… Here it comes!" Lord Cold Mountain shouted, staring ahead.

The seven-colored boat had now sailed into the territory of the purple star. Countless tiny, black dots emerged from the layers of clouds, like dark clouds rushing toward them.

In fact, the dark clouds were formed of many creatures similar to bats.

"Demon Spirits?"

It was evident that Fang Yuan had known such demons for a long time.

Of course, the realm and the quantity of this current Demon Spirit army far exceeded those in Da Qian.

"Impressive. The most inferior soldiers in a random demon army are already Demon Generals, and the leaders are all Heaven Immortals. Fortunately, none of them are Golden Immortal rank…"

Fang Yuan's expression became slightly solemn.

There were more than a thousand Demon Generals right in front of them. What sort of military strength was that?

If the number of nether soldiers from this realm reached 100,000, with an appropriate array, their strength would be comparable to a Heaven Immortal.

While the thousands of Demon Generals, together with a dozen of Heaven Immortals, were no match for Ancient Gods, they could still easily raze the Three Mountains and Five Rivers to the ground.

The Demon Spirits became red-eyed at the sight of the sailboat, aggressively besieging it.

"What audacity!"

God Black Dragon's expression was as cold as granite, and he casually pointed at Fang Yuan. "Lord Mountain River, annihilate them!"

"Yes!"

By the military rules, no one could argue against a command on the battlefield.

Fang Yuan answered straightaway and flew out of the boat.

Hehe… God Black Dragon laughed coldly in his mind. No matter how smart you are, or who your backers are, you must die at my order on the battlefield!

In his view, it was as easy as flipping his palm to find a random excuse and kill this Lord Mountain River.

This moment made a perfect example. He could give an order before everyone, and this God had to obey it and fight for his life.

The Mental Demon Battlefield is different from the world outside. If you accidentally lose your life, you'll be honored as a brave warrior and I'll receive my benefits. It's a win-win situation, so why not go for it?

God Black Dragon was excited as he silently looked on.

It's truly troublesome on the Mental Demon Battlefield…

Fang Yuan felt the difference immediately as he left the boat.

Lord Mountain River was an Earthly God and would have no Spiritual Energy once he left his territory. On the Mental Demon Battlefield, he could only fight using his own magical strength, and this would be huge trouble to the newcomers who could not adjust quickly.

"Sword, come!"

Of course, to Fang Yuan, the sailboat, and even the defensive restrictions of the Heaven Palace, only limited his strength.

As he stood straight on the Mental Demon Battlefield, he felt extremely comfortable all over.

"Heavenly Gods! Kill them!" A roar in the Mental Demon language was heard from the swarm of giant bats.

Sure enough, a Marquis could understand any language.

Puff! Puff!

The giant bats besieged him, their wings generating strong gusts of wind everywhere. Lord Cold Mountain turned pale witnessing this. "Seriously… If it was me, I wouldn't be able to survive!"

Fang Yuan looked confident and fearless. He flicked his fingers and streams of Sword Qi shot out instantly.

No! This was no longer Sword Qi. The traces of Qi were light and soft, almost invisible to the eyes. These were sword threads that looked as if they would break at any moment!

Zap! Zap!

The sword threads entered the knife-like winds and readily disintegrated the Stellar Qi, revealing the Demon Generals behind it.

Splash!

Dozens of Demon Generals were momentarily stunned before their bodies were sliced and their spirits extinguished.

"Hmm?" God Black Dragon raised his eyebrows. "This swordsmanship… is somewhat related to the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect. It's like spring wind transforming into raindrops, not having a fixed shape… This God is really gifted!"

It was inconvenient for Fang Yuan to display his real capability in front of these Gods, so he only used some swordsmanship instead. However, the Gods continuously nodded as they watched him battle. "Look… Lord Mountain River has responded with the most appropriate magical technique. The thick evil Qi in the Mental Demon Realm prevents us from recovering our magical strength, so we have to be prudent. This swordsmanship minimizes the use of magical strength and works quite well."

"Go!"

Fang Yuan moved like the wind, killing demons as if he were removing weed. Within a moment, another dozen Demon Generals was killed by him.

"Keep fighting! Don't stop!"

A chilling glow flashed in the eyes of God Black Dragon as he gave the order in a cold voice.
