Chapter 133: Blazing Sun Palm (Subscription Request)
“Evil God’s mutterings…”
After parting ways with Li Wei and Xia Long, Fang Xing returned to his Blue Star University dormitory, his expression grave.
“Xu Sanyang, a person of extraordinary talent, originally had a bright future. Yet, after hearing the mutterings of an extraterrestrial Evil God, he became like this… Is there some ulterior motive behind this?”
“A doctor cannot heal himself. He can treat the mental pollution of high-ranking followers, but he cannot cure his own Evil God’s muttering problem…”
“Just how terrifying is the extraterrestrial Evil God’s true form?”
…
After witnessing Xu Sanyang’s strength, Fang Xing deeply understood that his own position in interstellar society was still very low, very weak.
Even prodigies like Xu Sanyang could be brought down by the Evil God’s mutterings, causing them to falter.
He had to be even more careful and cautious.
Over the next month, he immersed himself in cultivation. Then, it was the start of the sophomore year.
At this time, good news arrived.
Virtual world.
Fang Xing had just logged in, preparing to go to the battle platform, when Xiaolan flew over: “Master, someone is contacting you… requesting entry into your private space…”
“Oh?”
Fang Xing looked at the contact and immediately smiled: “Granted.”
In the next instant, the world transformed.
He found himself in a living room, sitting on a leather sofa.
Opposite him, a girl with a youthful face, delicate features, and a bun hairstyle, was smiling as she brewed tea.
“Gu Yun… congratulations on getting into university.”
Fang Xing offered his sincere congratulations, secretly blaming Lu Guangming, that old scoundrel, for forgetting to mention such an important matter.
“I did alright, I only got into Blue Star Prevention University.”
Gu Yun poured tea for Fang Xing: “It’s just a second-tier university, but on Blue Star, the school environment is quite good…”
Fang Xing, with Xiaolan by his side, quickly checked: “A second-tier university is still pretty good. Strive to become a formal Professional during university, and then work outside after graduation… By the way, what’s your major?”
He looked at her information, discovering that Blue Star Prevention University was quite good, but the key was that there were too many majors related to Evil Gods, and graduates often signed employment agreements with the Prevention Bureau.
Such agreements did not replace military service; they merely stipulated that after completing military service, they would join the Prevention Bureau.
Overall, it was somewhat dangerous.
“Of course, it’s the Martial Dao department, but I chose electives like Evil God Emergency Response…”
Gu Yun softly replied, her future aspirations clearly determined.
“Since you’re determined, I won’t say anything.”
Fang Xing sighed.
“Although I’ve just entered university and obtained virtual network access, I’ve seen the legendary name of my seniors on the battle platform…”
Gu Yun brought up other things.
With the development of the virtual network, more and more universities joined it, naturally increasing the value of the battle rankings.
Although the battle rankings didn’t record Martial Dao Golden Core cultivators, and many senior students went to the Secret Realm for internships, the battle rankings were becoming increasingly popular among university students.
Furthermore, the virtual space continued to operate even during the winter and summer vacations, and so did the battle platform.
Fang Xing immediately invited Gu Yun for a battle, using his own Exterior Scene Realm cultivation to properly guide the girl.
After sending Gu Yun away, he looked at the challenge list and nodded.
In an abandoned parking lot, a flash of void light appeared, abruptly revealing a sun.
The scorching light was overwhelming, illuminating all directions.
Gu Jian Tong hovered in the air, his golden eyebrows seemingly burning: “Fang Xing… let’s fight!”
Although he claimed not to want to fight Fang Xing again, his actions spoke otherwise.
“Oh… you yellow-browed kid!”
Fang Xing, seeing Gu Jian Tong, couldn’t hide his mischievous thoughts: “Why are you still merely at the fourth stage of Martial Dao?”
“In the Martial Dao, foundation is paramount… Even the strongest at the fourth stage of Martial Dao may not be unable to defeat the fifth stage, Exterior Scene!”
Gu Jian Tong proudly declared: “It’s not that I can’t break through, I just don’t want to… I’m preparing for the right opportunity to unify my martial arts, and break through to become a strong Exterior Scene cultivator in one go!”
“Oh?”
Fang Xing checked Gu Jian Tong’s battle record: “You’ve actually defeated so many Exterior Scene seniors… Truly impressive.”
To be able to fight against and defeat those in the fifth stage while being in the fourth, he was truly exceptional!
“However, I feel like your Light Transformation ability has awakened a second time?”
He smiled: “Ultimate ability users, relying solely on their Light Transformation ability, can rival Martial Gods… You’re still too weak.”
“Less chatter, let’s fight!”
Gu Jian Tong’s ability to defeat numerous Exterior Scene cultivators indicated that his improvement was extraordinary.
Especially his Light Transformation ability!
Now, it was like sunlight shining, actually able to counteract the suppression of the Dragon Tiger Realm!
His movements were like rays of light, moving horizontally and vertically, his speed astounding.
Whoosh!
A flash of light!
Gu Jian Tong suddenly appeared beside Fang Xing, striking out with a palm.
As this palm struck out, his palm slightly caved inward, as if gathering intense light, a small sun appearing in his hand.
“Nuclear Peace Palm? No… it’s far too different… yet it has a bit of Zen to it…”
Fang Xing turned his right hand over, his middle finger slightly curved, gently flicking it.
Sizzle!
A startlingly bright blade of light appeared, cleaving through the miniature sun in his palm.
Despite this, he was somewhat impressed.
After all, he was only suppressing him with his realm, with a little help from his simple and unadorned attribute panel.
But Gu Jian Tong seemed to be forging his own path: “Good palm technique… but a little crude, not like what a teacher would teach.”
“That’s right, this is my self-created ‘Blazing Sun Palm’, inspired by the Wanling Scripture, incorporating the essence of the first move of the Nuclear Peace Palm and the Rulai Divine Palm!”
Gu Jian Tong’s palm technique changed again, as if transforming into the blazing sun, his palm splitting into two, then four… finally, nine palm shadows, as if holding up nine blazing suns: “Nine Suns in the Sky!”
However, Fang Xing flicked his fingers repeatedly, each blade of light incredibly condensed, shattering each small fireball.
“Good, good… you’ve indeed reached Exterior Scene combat power.”
In his heart, he was even more impressed.
Gu Jian Tong’s ability to slightly incorporate the essence of the first move of those two great martial arts indicated the possibility of him practicing these two martial arts once he reached a higher level in the future!
Of course, the Nuclear Peace Palm was a mechanical martial art, and its full power could only be unleashed with a mecha, but a martial artist could still make use of it.
‘Strictly speaking, I haven’t studied the Wanling Scripture yet… I wonder how many essences of martial arts I can incorporate now?’
Fang Xing’s figure was ethereal, suddenly like a phoenix dancing in the sky, appearing before Gu Jian Tong, flicking his finger.
“Ah!”
Gu Jian Tong screamed, all his defenses crumbling like paper, his forehead struck by a finger, his whole body flying backward, crashing onto the roof of a wrecked car, deeply denting it.
“Although you can defeat average Exterior Scene cultivators, if you want to fight me, break through to Exterior Scene first…”
Fang Xing stood in mid-air, hands behind his back, proud.
“Damn it… If I hadn’t wanted to determine my own unique martial arts direction during the Brave Warrior Realm, I would have broken through to Exterior Scene long ago to fight you.”
Gu Jian Tong stood up, feeling a large lump on his forehead, unable to help but feel a little defeated.
“Wait, don’t concede yet, let’s discuss this.”
Fang Xing landed, a smile on his face.
He had long known that Gu Jian Tong was a target of the Gate School, so he paid attention to him.
After all, the Gate School might be secretly influencing him: “By the way, how was your summer vacation?”
“Not good, incredibly boring… Even the Student Union tasks were incredibly boring.”
Although Gu Jian Tong was cold and aloof to his subordinates, he showed a somewhat silly side to those he could defeat or geniuses he admired.
Seeing that Fang Xing wasn’t going to fight anymore and didn’t leave the space immediately, he started complaining: “This time, the Student Union’s task was to let me catch an Evil God Cult leader… I was so excited, thinking I was going to catch some big fish. But after careful investigation, I discovered that he was just a scoundrel who used his mental abilities to swindle food, drink, and sex… His strength was pathetic; after I defeated him, he was reported by his followers and sent straight to prison. Looking at his sentence, he’ll probably be there for life…”
When Fang Xing first heard “Evil God Cult leader,” he was also alarmed, thinking it was a ruthless character like the head of the Gate School.
Now, he was equally speechless: “He’s just a swindler? No… on Blue Star, people can still be fooled?”
“Although Blue Star welcomes Professionals to settle down, Professionals also have wives and children… they aren’t born with fourth-stage strength… These vulnerable groups, once they experience misfortune in life, are more likely to be deceived… Although our technology is advanced today, the ignorance in people’s hearts is difficult to eliminate, especially… that charlatan’s mental abilities were quite skilled.”
Gu Jian Tong shook his head: “It’s a pity… he was just a scammer, but he had to connect himself with the extraterrestrial Evil God. Although the Prevention Bureau ultimately confirmed there was no problem, they still added several years to his sentence, he brought it on himself.”
“Indeed, it’s quite amusing…”
Fang Xing smiled: “Your unique martial path still hasn’t been determined?”
When it came to cultivation, Gu Jian Tong was clearly more interested: “Of course, my Light Transformation ability is unparalleled in the world, I can’t waste it… I’ve looked at some unique martial arts, but they don’t seem to match me. Truly, the most suitable martial arts still need to be created by myself…”
“I spent credits and repeatedly studied the Wanling Scripture, finding some inspiration from nuclear explosions and the great sunlight, and now I have a prototype… Once I use this as a foundation and break through to Exterior Scene, I’ll definitely have to fight you again.”
Gu Jian Tong’s expression was resolute: “But today’s battle gave me some insight… I’m ultimately not very compatible with the Nuclear Peace Palm, I’m probably more suited to our university’s Rulai Divine Palm Scripture…”
‘This is… a destined feud? If you also know the Mahābhote-like Chant… then it’s more than just a little compatible with the Rulai Divine Palm Scripture.’
Fang Xing mentally added a comment.
After dismissing Gu Jian Tong, his expression became calm, and he began to review the events.
‘According to Gu Jian Tong, his cultivation has always been like this, without any external influence…’
‘Several Student Union missions, just catching small-time thieves…’
‘It seems there’s not much of a problem… Then, where is the Gate School’s influence?’
