Just as the Immortality Saint was thinking about these, all the powers gathered by the heavenly river erupted explosively from Ulpian’s repeated collisions. It had a remarkably forceful impact.
The heavenly river that Ulpian had transformed into could destroy a continent with just a casual strike. However, now that it was seething to and fro, the powers accumulated and then erupted with more than ten times the terrifying force it displayed earlier.
Yet the more terrifying thing was that the erupted powers did not shoot out in all directions. Instead, they turned into an exceptionally powerful huge silver dragon that charged out toward Fang Xingjian.
The Immortality Saint exclaimed in surprise, “What? He has discovered us? How’s that possible? His level of illusory arts should be lower than Fang Xingjian’s. Otherwise, how was it possible for him to be brought to the Sun?”
Concurrently, the huge silver dragon instantly engulfed Fang Xingjian. Wherever it passed by, the Sun’s flames were immediately extinguished and countless microscopic black holes were created from spatial distortions.
When the Sun’s sunlight arrived on Earth eight minutes later, everyone realized that the Sun seemed to have become dimmer than before.
On the surface of the Sun, a black spot that was several ten thousand lis in size had expanded due to Ulpian’s attack.
To think that he had directly extinguished the Sun’s flames which were within an area of ten thousand lis, causing 99% of the entire stretch of space to turn into a vacuum.
Behind this attack, Fang Xingjian stood amidst the dark vacuum while emitting flashing silver light.
The two of them exchanged blows intensely, creating a stretch of dark area that was the size of an asteroid. Fang Xingjian had no choice but to take on the final form of the Heaven-Connecting Upper Extremity Sword Physique.
‘What a terrifying power.’ The Immortality Saint also became more nervous. ‘If I had forcibly taken on that earlier blow head-on with my conjured physique, I’d definitely have died. However, to think that Fang Xingjian managed to fend it off with his sword physique…
‘However, he waited only until now before using this for defense. Is it because it consumes a lot of power?
‘He can’t take on Ulpian head-on. So, is it still going to be a competition between their illusory arts now?’
Right when the Immortality Saint was assessing the current situation, Fang Xingjian had just completed the perfect form of the Heaven-Connecting Upper Extremity Sword Physique.
Although his cultivation had increased tremendously, he could only keep this physique up for one hour. However, he believed that Ulpian should have no way of disposing him within this one hour.
Nevertheless, Fang Xingjian still could not help but look toward Ulpian, who was at the other end of the darkness. He said, “You’ve learned it?”
“Sudden Inspiration?” Ulpian said calmly, “It’s true that it took me a very long period of time, but I’ve already learned it.”
Hearing their conversation, a feeling of great astonishment flashed through the Immortality Saint’s mind, and he immediately understood. ‘So that’s how it is?
‘By right, the Ulpian’s powers and the range of his attacks should both exceed Fang Xingjian’s. Moreover, his illusory arts should also be above Fang Xingjian’s. At the very least, his range of influence and his attacking range far surpass Fang Xingjian’s. Just these give Ulpian a huge advantage.
‘Previously, Fang Xingjian was able to assess Ulpian’s actual location through his Sudden Inspiration’s precognition ability. This allowed him to suppress Ulpian in terms of his illusory arts.
‘This is also why Fang Xingjian was able to hoodwink and move Ulpian to the Sun’s core, and even set up three tiers of illusions, using the Sun’s force to fight against Ulpian.’
The Immortality Saint sensed cold sweat dripping off his head. ‘However, Ulpian’s talent still exceeds Fang Xingjian’s predictions. Not only did Ulpian managed to outwit Fang Xingjian with his own tricks, but he also managed to secretly learn Fang Xingjian’s Sudden Inspiration while accumulating his powers at the same time.
‘At the end, he learned Sudden Inspiration and even managed to use this to locate Fang Xingjian’s actual location, breaking the three-tiered illusions—Uranus, palm, and Sword Realm. He also managed to attack Fang Xingjian’s actual body with his accumulated powers.’
The Immortality Saint felt as if he had taken a walk at the edge of a cliff. ‘This monster is too scary. If it wasn’t because of Fang Xingjian’s Heaven-Connecting Upper Extremity Sword Physique, we’d all be dead from that attack earlier.
‘From the moment he broke through Fang Xingjian’s illusions, it has become meaningless to fight between their illusory arts. It’s because both parties have grasped illusory arts and Sudden Inspiration, as well as the ability to break through illusions. If this continues, it’ll just be an endless series of probing between illusions.
‘Is the real fight going to start now?’
Simultaneously, the huge silver dragon that kept on extending outward continued to contract and become smaller. It instantly reached the size that could encompass a continent. Then it continued shrinking to the size of a peninsula, a city, a lake, and eventually turned into Ulpian’s original appearance—a human figure that was about the same size as Fang Xingjian.
‘Why did he recall his Virtual Image?’ The Immortality Saint was slightly stunned. Ulpian, who possessed a Virtual Image, could keep on translocating himself and easily turn his powers into a huge force which stretched over ten thousand lis. The Immortality Saint felt that Ulpian should definitely not be giving up at this point.
However, after he saw the Sun’s flames slowly recover its territory and reduce the area of the dark vacuum, he immediately reacted, ‘So that’s how it is. If he keeps on assuming the form of the Virtual Image, he will have to fend off even more of the Sun’s flames.’
As the battlefield was on the Sun, the greater one’s size, the more flames, heat, and radiation they would have to fend off at any point of time. Therefore, the amount of power depleted would be even greater. This was especially when Ulpian’s Heavenly River Virtual Image took up such a massive area of space while constantly fending off the heat energy that could vaporize the entire Earth’s atmosphere. What was the amount of depletion for this?
This was why Ulpian recalled his Virtual Image.
‘To think that Fang Xingjian managed to think of this point as well. Did he not plan on finishing off his opponent with illusory arts from the very beginning?’ The Immortality Saint exhaled. ‘His illusions have been broken through, but as long as the battlefield is brought into the Sun’s interior, it will be the equivalent of having crippled the other party’s Virtual Image ability. He will have seized the initiative of the battle.
‘Based on these, it seems that it’s true that the Sun’s interior is really the best battleground in the entire galaxy. ‘
‘Will it be a head-on confrontation next? There’s no longer any meaning to probing with illusions now.’
The Immortality Saint was full of emotion as he watched the battle up until this point. Both Ulpian and Fang Xingjian were unprecedentedly strong in terms of their talents, capabilities, and ability to perform in actual combats. If he were to be the one fighting either of them, he probably would not even know how he died.
With a slight movement at the next moment, Ulpian had distorted space, compressed distance, and arrived before Fang Xingjian at superluminal speed, launching out a punch.
Right now, Ulpian had drawn back all of the Heavenly River Virtual Image back into his body. However, this did not mean that his powers were now weaker.
It was just that the prowess of many of his remarkable skills would not be as massive as before. Yet, when all the pure powers were condensed into the size of a body of an ordinary person, the impact per unit area would be even more astonishing.
Wherever Ulpian’s fist passed by, it distorted space, expelling everything in its way. The whole space had been turned into darkness. Eventually, it struck Fang Xingjian’s body, simultaneously covering up Fang Xingjian’s body with all of the darkness.
