Chapter 806: Illusion
Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations
These were the results of Fang Xingjian"s training while he was in Charlot"s body. His application of the Light Pursuit Sword had improved further, and his level of comprehension toward the profoundness of electromagnetic forces, gravity, and strong interaction had grown even more. He had taken another step forward in the the microscopic world and was now able to unleash the Celestial Eradication Sword Formation"s ability to create illusions.
Fang Xingjian was no longer purely attacking and killing his opponents in the microscopic world. Instead, he was changing the macroscopic world and creating all sorts of mysterious phenomena through changing the intensity of the three different types of forces.
Previously, he had not been able to display this power. However, when the restriction on Fang Xingjian was removed by the Purple Mage King, Fang Xingjian had then broken through the limits of his senses and emotions, as well as his grasp of the illusionary arts which were the results of his senses and emotions.
"The basis for the senses of humans, Knights, and Divine level experts, as well as their emotions, come from having contact with material items, the collisions of waves, and the reflections of light rays. To sum it all up, they"re just electromagnetic waves.
"Gaining control over electromagnetic waves would mean gaining control over the human heart."
At this moment, Fang Xingjian"s sword arts no longer just purely allowed the powers of his attacks to affect the microscopic world. Instead, he was using his powers to create an upheaval in the microscopic world, giving rise to all sorts of unbelievable phenomena.
Fang Xingjian"s entire body spread throughout the Celestial Eradication Sword Formation"s domain, and the entire world appeared to have become countless waves and microparticles. He no longer seemed to pay any attention to the Sacred Fire Order"s Patriarch or the people from the Sand Country.
When Fang Xingjian first displayed the results of his cultivation of the Light Pursuit sword technique from after the Purple Mage King removed the restrictions placed on him, he seemed to notice many things in the microscopic world which he had not been able to see before.
The Light Pursuit Sword appeared to have gone through a change due to the changes to his emotions.
Many light images flashed before him. Some of them were very familiar to him, while some others were unfamiliar.
Then as Fang Xingjian continued to change the various waves and particles in the microscopic world with his own powers, the Sacred Fire Order"s Patriarch in the macroscopic world saw many changes.
Divine level experts tended to sense the world through their martial wills, obtaining information through the ether particles. They could obtain many details including height, length, speed, temperature, and brightness. Then they would be able to regroup the information in their minds, as if they had seen everything through their martial will.
However, the essence of martial will was still electromagnetic waves. The information he had obtained were still all sorts of light waves, radiations, and electromagnetic waves.
Therefore, when Fang Xingjian"s sword intents landed in the microscopic world, they did not only create destruction with brute force. They also started to strengthen, weaken, and change electromagnetic waves. After the Sacred Fire Order"s Patriarch received all sorts of information that Fang Xingjian had changed, Fang Xingjian was then able to create various illusions.
Even the human body"s sight, hearing, and touch could not escape. The sensory information for these senses was even easier to falsify.
"What you see is what I want you to see.
"What you hear is also what I want you to hear."
The Celestial Eradication Sword Formation and Fang Xingjian had completely turned into an invisible force that was scattered out in the s.p.a.ce within a range of 100,000 meters.
Through the Patriarch"s sight, it was not just that everyone in the entire city that had become Fang Xingjian. Fang Xingjian"s face had even appeared on the back of the Patriarch"s hand.
"Are you going to kill me?"
Another face darted out from the Patriarch"s chest.
"Are you going to kill me?"
The Sacred Fire Order"s Patriarch struck out his palm, turning the face on his chest into mush. However, he also received damage, and light fragments splattered out.
"Illusions. These are all illusions." The Patriarch"s gaze narrowed. Not only did the attack on his chest make him feel pain, but it also made him calm down. His expression became extremely solemn.
"To think that he can directly change the information received by my martial will...
"Hmph, but illusions are illusions after all. I can just recreate the environment"s information."
Streams of sparks extended out from his body, and boundless amounts of heat energy condensed in the sky, incessantly forming many temperature zones which extended out in all directions.
The Sacred Fire Order"s Patriarch was trying to search through the entire world by manually changing the heat radiations. Even the Great Radiant Sect trembled under his control, bringing up streams of sparks and shooting out in all directions as it formed many temperature zones.
With the formation of these temperature zones, many material things that had different heat tolerance levels were reconstructed in his mind, allowing the scenes in the surroundings to appear in his mind once again.
The images of Fang Xingjian on his body disappeared completely, and everyone on the ground had returned to normal. All the illusions had disappeared in an instant.
"I see you now!"
Amidst the Patriarch"s probes, Fang Xingjian was looking at him with a startled expression in the sky about one kilometer away. It was as if Fang Xingjian had not expected that his illusory arts would be cracked.
The Patriarch seethed with great fury. Then with a single thought, he surrounded Fang Xingjian with the layers of seething flames. At the next moment, the Egg of World Creation above the Patriarch charged outward into the sky, striking out toward Fang Xingjian"s location.
It was as if the world had been split open once again and the universe had exploded. With the collision from the Egg of World Creation, endless white light burst out, and a high temperature of over ten million degrees vaporized everything at Fang Xingjian"s spot. It was like everything material in the entire world had disappeared at this moment, only leaving behind heat energy.
"With this strike, he would be seriously injured even if he doesn"t die." The Patriarch smirked and once again tried to search for Fang Xingjian"s location.
Yet at the next moment, a soft voice rang out next to his ear, "Where are you looking at?"
"What?" The Patriarch turned his head abruptly only to see that Fang Xingjian was standing unscathed behind him, looking curiously at the location where the Egg of World Creation had exploded earlier.
The Sacred Fire Order"s Patriarch asked in disbelief, "That was still an illusion?"
Fang Xingjian patted the Patriarch on the shoulder gently and said, "When did you think that you understood my illusory arts?"
Amidst the Patriarch"s martial will, the explosions slowly dissipated, and the Heavenly Dance Monarch"s remnant martial will was revealed. All that was left behind was an extremely discontented and resentful expression before she completely dissipated into the world.
"Ahhhh!!" The Patriarch"s face became extremely distorted as he revealed an expression of great fury. The flames above the Great Radiant World seethed like several tens or over 100 volcanoes about to explode.
However, the Patriarch still did not make any move. Or rather, it could be said that he did not dare to make any move at all. He feared that the next time he made a move, he would end up destroying the entire desert capital.
"To think that the illusory arts at the microscopic level is so terrifying?" The Patriarch"s expression was that of incredulousness and discontent. Although he had yet to reach the microscopic level in his cultivation, the Sacred Fire Order"s manuals had recorded the existence of this realm.
He knew that for those at tier one to five of the Divine level, the goal was to get into this cultivation realm. It was only after attaining this realm would one then have hopes of making further breakthroughs.
Looking at how the Patriarch had stopped making his moves, Fang Xingjian asked indifferently, "Are you not going to make any more moves? But are you sure that you"re really not doing anything?"
