All the powers of the Celestial Eradication Sword Formation were all gathered into this single sword attack. Under the explosive prowess of the All-Conquering sword, the interference toward the heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces reached an extreme.
The power of electromagnetic forces was the basic force that formed everything material in the world. It represented the structure of everything physical.
This All-Conquering sword attack, which was activated using the power of the entire Celestial Eradication Sword Formation, caused countless comprehensions to flash in Fang Xingjian's heart.
With this sword attack, the black and white light spheres were destroyed and wiped out. At the next moment, the Thunder Calamity longsword cut through the Fifth Prince's body, causing the Fifth Prince to pass by Fang Xingjian.
The Fifth Prince's physical body and nanotechnology armor were unharmed by this sword attack, but a lump of white martial will was sliced out. It turned into countless light spots and plunged down toward the ground.
This sword attack, which was the pinnacle of sword arts, did not slash the physical body. Instead, it slashed out Tian Yi's martial will and dealt it with severe injuries.
Several hundred Conferred Knights across the Great Western City looked at this sword attack with great astonishment.
With this sword attack, Fang Xingjian felt that he had come into contact with a hint of the true nature of electromagnetic forces.
Prince Philip's mouth was agape, and his eyes filled with endless zeal and admiration. "Slashing apart the martial will from the physical body with a single sword attack... This is a sword attack that is at the pinnacle of sword arts."
Regional Chief Benjamin was also filled with great astonishment. He suddenly heard some sounds and turned around to take a look, only to see that the sword arts genius who had sparred against the Supreme Chief had tears streaming down his face.
"Haha, for me to be able to witness this sword attack that's at the pinnacle of sword arts while I'm still alive... I have no regrets even if I were to die..."
Zhou Xingwen, Rota, Fang Qian, and the others in the Great Western Region Regional Academy let out long breaths as they looked at the sword wielding figure in the sky with great astonishment, followed by endless admiration.
In the Great Western City, countless Conferred Knights from various influences lowered their heads silently, showing their respect toward this sword attack which was at the pinnacle of sword arts.
The Fist Emperor appeared very dejected. Confronted with this sword attack that was at the pinnacle of sword arts, he could no longer summon any will to resist.
"Fang Xingjian..."
Tian Yi's martial will continued to break down and weaken. Then in the blink of an eye, it arrived onto the ground as it turned into a small light figure.
When Tian Yi managed to raise his head with great difficulty, he noticed that Fang Xingjian had appeared before him, holding a small white dog in his hands.
"What are you thinking of doing?!" Tian Yi suddenly had a bad feeling about this. However, he had been severely injured by Fang Xingjian's sword attack and his martial will had been weakened to an extreme. Right now, his glow was only the size of a matchstick, and he had no means of resisting at all.
The Thunder Calamity in Fang Xingjian's hand flashed and tapped onto the small light figure which Tian Yi had turned into. In an instant, he sealed up Tian Yi's martial will into the small white dog.
To be able to cut off the connection between the physical body and the will with a single sword, and to be able to place one's will into the body of an animal with a single sword as if performing some kind of surgery between the physical body and will... At this moment, Fang Xingjian had attained a new breakthrough in his understanding of sword arts, electromagnetic forces, and the structure of physical things.
The Celestial Eradication Sword Technique and All-Conquering sword had reached an unprecedented pinnacle in the profoundness of electromagnetism.
Meanwhile, Tian Yi, who had been placed into the body of a small white dog, broke down.
'Aren't I number one in the world?'
'Shouldn't I be invincible?
'How could I have lost?
'How could I have failed?'
His will was stunned. After that, he broke down and fell unconscious.
Fang Xingjian looked at the unconscious small dog in his hand and casually tossed it to Fang Qian. "Keep an eye on him. Don't let him starve to death." Fang Xingjian was intrigued by Tian Yi's background, so he wanted to seize him and ask him questions. As for the Fifth Prince...
Fang Xingjian lifted his head and looked up. The Fifth Prince's body was still standing in the sky.
The sword attack from earlier had not just simply cut Tian Yi's martial will. Earlier on, Tian Yi had been in a state where he had borrowed the Fifth Prince's powers.
Fang Xingjian's sword attack from earlier had not only slashed Tian Yi's martial will. It had also slashed out the Fifth Prince's martial will and crushed it.
At this moment, the Fifth Prince was only left with a small portion of his power that was hidden deep in his mind, at the most crucial spot.
When the rest of the people saw how Fang Xingjian had sealed the opponent's martial will into the body of a dog with a single sword attack, they were even more astonished. This was an extremely brilliant and skillful sword technique.
Tyrant was taken aback and then filled with great excitement. 'I was right in my bet. Fang Xingjian's future... It's limitless...'
The Fourth Prince also looked at Fang Xingjian with a burning gaze, still submerged in the astonishment from that two sword attacks from earlier. 'Even if the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor has surpassed Fang Xingjian in terms of power, his understanding of sword arts is probably not a match for Fang Xingjian anymore. This person was born to be a genius in sword arts, no... it should be said that he is a god of swords.'
Tian Yi fell unconscious very quickly, and in a few seconds, the Stalwart Eidolon Conviction once again completely wiped out the memories of his failure from earlier. He opened his eyes, and a hint of a proud smile curled up on the corners of his lips.
'Did I fall asleep again?
'I hope that I didn't cause any damage to the surroundings while I was asleep.
'After all, I'm too powerful. Even some subconscious waves could easily produce unfathomable destructive powers.'
Just as Tian Yi was thinking about this, he was suddenly stunned. Why was the hand he put out a dog's paw?
He then put out the other hand. It was still a dog's paw.
'What's going on?"
He wanted to roar out, but all that he could hear were a dog's barks.
"I? I became a dog?"
"Woof woof woof woof woof!"
Tian Yi's mind once again broke down, and he fell unconscious again. The Stalwart Eidolon Conviction in his mind started to produce some kind of strange change.
In the sky, the Fifth Prince had entered a state of complete panic. He sensed that the power in his body was not even comparable to the weakest tier one of the Divine level or even some Demigod experts.
'This goddamned Fang Xingjian... This goddamned Tian Yi...
'My power... Did he rob me of my power?'
The Fist Emperor dashed over, supported the Fifth Prince, and asked, "What happened? Are you alright?"
Before the Fifth Prince could say anything, Fang Xingjian was already standing before them.
The Fifth Prince lifted his head and looked at Fang Xingjian with a savage look. Gritting his teeth, he said, "You crippled me of my martial arts?"
The Fist Emperor was stunned. He scanned the Fifth Prince's body with his martial will, and his countenance immediately changed.
Fang Xingjian spoke indifferently, "It's just something I did in passing. If you take the initiative to share where the armor came from, I can let you die more comfortably."
Hearing that, the Fifth Prince laughed out loud. "Kill me? Fang Xingjian, let me tell you this. You can hurt me, you can humiliate me, and you can even cripple me of my martial arts. But kill me? Would you dare to?"
After saying that, he threw a mocking glance toward Fang Xingjian and said coldly, "Father has already reached the tier five of the Divine level. He can show me no concern and allow me to encounter all sorts of setbacks, but if you kill me... I'm sorry, but if you were to dare to try that, he would immediately come at light speed and kill you."
He then looked at Fang Xingjian with a contemptuous gaze and said, "Go on. I'm only afraid that you won't do it. You can forget about ever killing me. This time around, it's my loss. I'll get my revenge the next time. I'll also destroy the entire Great Western City and let you experience what true pain is like."
With Alexander having attained tier five of the Divine level, the Fifth Prince was certain that Fang Xingjian would not really dare to kill him.
Moreover, it would be even better if he were to try. The Fifth Prince could not wish for anything better than to have Alexander kill Fang Xingjian for him. After all, the power and sword arts which Fang Xingjian had displayed were far too terrifying. The Fifth Prince had lost the confidence to win against Fang Xingjian and only wanted to rely on Alexander to kill him directly.
