Chapter 645: Chapter 543 Legend
"The birth of a new Heavenly King... How fortunate I am to witness this."
"Quick, I need all the information on that Tamer!"
"Damn it... Only the images of the seventh level in the Heart Tower are released. I really want to see the battle on the eighth level... Will there be an Emperor-quality Heart Beast appearing?"
At this moment, on the marble plaza, countless Tamers had blood-red eyes, with a hint of madness.
What does the Heavenly King represent?
In this world, it means a powerful vassal state has risen!
If you make good relations, that’s decades of enormous benefits.
But if you turn against them, death and the destruction of tribes can happen!
These nobles and Tamers, who are usually so lofty, couldn’t help but throw away their usual demeanor, acting like madmen.
...
Fang Xing didn’t care about the commotion outside the tower.
He let Er Ha open the Destruction Domain, and sure enough, his own three Heart Beasts managed to take down the opponent smoothly.
"If it didn’t work out, I would’ve wasted all this time raising them, letting them devour so many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures..."
Some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures can increase cultivation just by consuming them.
Not to mention, Fang Xing also localized the Alchemy Technique of the Cultivation World to maximize the effectiveness of these treasures.
Coupled with Er Ha’s constant advancement, moving in and out of danger zones with ease, he found many treasures.
If not limited by King-level quality, Fang Xing might have been able to cultivate multiple Emperor-quality Heart Beasts.
Rumble!
The battle stone platform ascended again, reaching the eighth level.
"A newly promoted Heavenly King... truly rare."
On the opposite stone platform stood an old man.
His eyes were gentle, his hair was grizzled, and he wore no mask.
"The Gatekeeper of the eighth level?"
Fang Xing was somewhat doubtful: "You don’t need to wear a uniform?"
"Hehe... As the Pope of the Heart Church, even as a retired former Pope, there are still some privileges."
The old man said carelessly, revealing his identity: "Congratulations, young man. As a newly promoted Heavenly King, you can acquire a large piece of Sealed Land, and also choose a gift in the Heart Tower... If you defeat me, you will gain unimaginable benefits..."
"So it’s the former Pope, Your Excellency."
Fang Xing slightly bowed: "Let’s start!"
"The battle... begins!"
The old Pope spoke slowly.
Then... freeweɓnøvel~com
Fang Xing suddenly felt himself falling into darkness.
"Hmm? Illusion Technique?"
"Impossible! Not to mention the protection of my Lifebound Heart Beast, just my will, how could I fall for it?"
Fang Xing was taken aback.
His will is at the level of a Dharma Master, having tread the path of a Martial Artist, cultivating Martial Arts Will all the way, how could he fall for an Illusion Technique?
"My Lifebound Heart Beast is ’Darkness’..."
The old Pope’s voice slowly echoed from the darkness: "Afterwards, I subdued four Mind Beasts of ’Anger’, ’Shock Intent’, ’Fear’, and ’Death Intent’..."
"Five colors blind, five sounds deafen, galloping hunting makes the mind mad..."
"This is my Heart Beast Fusion Skill——Five Intentions Cage! It has defeated thirteen Heavenly Kings... If you can come out, then I lose."
"If you can’t come out, you might die!"
...
Listening to the calm voice of the old Pope, a surge of anger arose in Fang Xing’s heart.
"No, this isn’t my anger... It’s the Anger being triggered."
Fang Xing forcibly gathered his spirit.
"This old Pope, his Lifebound Heart Beast might be of Emperor-quality, as for those four ’Intent Beasts’, probably only King-level... The Fusion Skill formed is powerful, but not enough to trap me! The only explanation is the power of the heart..."
The soul has three layers, will is only the middle layer, the most fundamental is still the True Spirit!
Before, Fang Xing used his will to attack, ignoring defense, taking down many enemies.
This time, encountering a higher-level ’True Spirit Attack’, no defense worked either, and he was immediately at a disadvantage.
’However, this can’t be considered a True Spirit Attack, it’s just an illusion influence at a True Spirit level... Otherwise, with my true self counterattacking using the attribute panel, this old Pope would be turned to ash...’
’Even so, it’s very terrifying.’
...
The Heart Tower, eighth level.
On the Battle Platform, Fang Xing had a bewildered expression.
Er Ha anxiously stood up, circling around him.
And in the outside world, a layer of darkness descended like a curtain.
This layer of darkness first enveloped the Purgatory Striking Willow, this nine-thousand-year-old Striking Willow didn’t have any resistance, directly swallowed by darkness.
Then, it was the Titan Demon Ant and the Winged Dragon of the Wind God.
Although the Wind God Winged Dragon could fly in the air, it was still caught up and engulfed by the darkness...
Then, the darkness swept towards Fang Xing!
But in the next instant, the darkness came to an abrupt halt.
Amid the darkness, the Wind God Winged Dragon silently perished.
Then... a shadow appeared, directly merging into the darkness.
Emperor-quality——Ghost Shadow!
——Ghost Possession!
This wasn’t even intentional by Fang Xing, but a instinctual struggle for survival by the Ghost Shadow when facing death by darkness!
But just like that, it easily seized control of the Dark Heart Beast.
"How could it be?"
The former Pope’s eyes filled with astonishment.
A Lifebound Heart Beast could only be killed, there was never a precedent of being controlled.
But now... he felt his own Lifebound Heart Beast was taken away!
"An Emperor-quality... Ghost Shadow?"
He let out a long breath and directly succumbed to death.
The Lifebound Heart Beast is formed from the Heart Image, and Tamers in this world only cultivate the power of the heart. Although their lifespan and physical qualities are enhanced, it is not by much.
In other words, when a Tamer dies, the Lifebound Heart Beast may not necessarily perish.
But when a Lifebound Heart Beast is taken away, the Tamer is destined to die!
In the next moment.
The darkness dissipated, Fang Xing regained his senses, looking at the darkness before him, remained silent: "Fang Leng... it’s really like he’s the protagonist."
The fusion skill of the eighth level of the Heart of the Tower, even he faced some trouble, already preparing to use a trump card to have Erha unlock the seal.
Unexpectedly, the Dark Heart Beast encountered the Ghost Shadow Heart Beast, although they were of the same quality, it seemed to be restrained, directly subjected to ’Possession’.
Imagine if Fang Leng had come to this eighth level, attacked by the Lifebound Heart Beast, the Ghost Shadow would surely counterattack instinctively, capturing the Dark Heart Beast, winning easily!
"So... is my brother really the world’s protagonist?"
"Then what is the gray wolf that killed him? The king of villains?"
After a sarcastic comment, Fang Xing looked at the battlefield, discovering that although this battle was swift, the results were quite tragic.
The Purgatory Whipping Willow, Titan Demon Ant, and Wind God Winged Dragon were all completely corrupted and killed by the darkness...
And after the Ghost Shadow took the dark, it also killed the four King-level Mind Beasts of the old Pope.
"Who knew the former Pope would go straight for the kill once he struck..."
"In battle, the death of a Tamer is normal, right?"
Fang Xing sighed.
At this moment, the battling stone slowly ascended, seemingly crossing an invisible Space, about to reach the ninth level of the Heart of the Tower.
...
On the square.
"Look quickly!"
Many Tamers and representatives from various factions were stationed at the tower entrance, waiting for the emergence of a new Heavenly King.
No one believed Fang Xing could pass the eighth level since all previous Heavenly Kings had failed before.
The once prideful Heavenly Kings came out humbled, the strongest Heart Beasts defeated, Lifebound Heart Beasts reverting to Heart Images, with examples of Heavenly Kings directly dying in battle.
But at this moment, a Tamer suddenly looked up at the Heart of the Tower.
The Heart of the Tower was constantly changing its glow, resembling a rainbow of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple...
"This... is an anomaly."
"Could it be... he has passed the eighth level?"
Nangong Qiushui watched this scene, feeling both shock and despair in her heart.
The shock naturally came from finally facing a challenger for the never-before-challenged ninth level of the Heart of the Tower.
The despair stemmed from feeling that she may never catch up to Fang Xing’s pace in her lifetime.
"So... even in the seventh level, he was far from his limit?"
"Could it be that the never-before-challenged ninth level... will be conquered?"
...
Headquarters of the Heart Sanctuary.
A vast statue of the Bright Ying Dragon roared.
The Holy Scripture Cardinal hurried to the current Pope.
He saw a ’Heavenly Mechanism Crow’ perched on the Pope’s shoulder, its feathers shedding, revealing red goosebumps, looking particularly comical.
"This is..."
Several cardinals who arrived were astonished.
"I just used the Heavenly Mechanism Crow to glimpse a corner of Destiny... the new Heavenly King has already passed the eighth level of the Heart of the Tower..."
The Pope said in a calm voice.
"He actually passed the eighth level?"
Other cardinals were shocked: "Is it possible that another ’Great Emperor’ will be born?"
Ordinary Tamers or even noble inheritances, no matter how ancient, are not as longstanding as the Heart Sanctuary.
Hence, their belief that no Tamer had passed the eighth level of the Heart of the Tower was incorrect.
Once, long ago, there was a record of passing the eighth level of the Heart of the Tower.
Unfortunately, this time has long faded into oblivion.
Of course, this is partly due to the Heart Church deliberately hiding the relevant records.
Because, although that Tamer Emperor failed to conquer the ninth level, he temporarily unified the world with his powerful Heart Beast, establishing a glorious Dynasty!
Alas... after he died of old age, the Dynasty immediately fell apart.
"However... no one can pass the ninth level; since the Heart of the Tower was built, this has never occurred."
A cardinal looked towards the Holy Light Square.
"Indeed... Legendary Level Heart Beasts only exist in legends."
"No one has truly seen them, much less a Tamer able to tame them..."
Other cardinals spoke.
"Destiny is called destiny because of its unpredictability."
Upon seeing this scene, the old Pope sighed, with a foreboding feeling emerging in his heart.
...
Ninth level of the Heart of the Tower.
All around was a sky, with only Fang Xing standing on a floating stone platform.
"At this moment, three of my Heart Beasts are dead, leaving Erha, Ghost Shadow, and Dark..."
"Who will my opponent be?"
Fang Xing was enveloped in a layer of darkness, with Erha crouching at his feet, eyes carrying a hint of anticipation.
Within this brief time, he had already familiarized himself with the Dark Heart Beast, confirming its Emperor quality, possessing fifty thousand years of cultivation.
The Ghost Shadow was essentially useless now, as the three Possession chances had been expended, now only serving to control the Dark Heart Beast.
"So, it’s two going against the ninth level?"
Fang Xing looked ahead, yet he did not see the Battle Platform or a Tamer.
Roar roar!
Suddenly, accompanied by a dragon’s roar, a brilliant transformation fell, forming a Heart Beast!
It had the body of an Eastern Divine Dragon and the wings of a Western dragon, with a magnificent form imbued with a ’Divine’ radiance!
"Legendary Level Heart Beast, over ten thousand years of cultivation — Bright Ying Dragon!"
