Fang Xian could clearly sense something amiss; the aura of the short-haired, golden-haired woman was incredibly powerful.
He used his "Eye of Insight" on her.
[Name: Number 18
Age: 120,000
Gender: Female
Race: Homunculus
Appearance: 95
Body: 95
Height: 168 cm
Character: Perfect
Favorability: -100]
What kind of species is a homunculus?
Could her name, Number 18, be the serial number for this species of homunculus?
And what's with the 120,000 years old?
A woman with such a long lifespan exists in this vast world?
Fang Xian frowned slightly and flew straight towards her.
Dongfang Shanshui greeted Fang Xian with a smile upon seeing him.
"God Emperor Fang, you've arrived."
Number 18 looked up slowly upon hearing this.
"You are Fang Xian?"
Fang Xian nodded, maintaining a certain distance from Number 18.
"What brings you here?"
Number 18 cut to the chase without mincing words.
"Where is the 'Great Dao Fruit'?"
Fang Xian's eyes narrowed slightly. He finally understood Number 18's identity; she came from
—a Special-Grade World.
Judging by her age, she likely invaded the Great Thousand World 100,000 years ago, creating the "Burial God Palace" and nurturing the "Great Dao Fruit."
Ultimately, the "Great Dao Fruit" benefited Fang Xian, allowing him to successfully advance to a "God-Level Contract Master."
100,000 years ago, Number 18 could sweep across the Great Thousand World; now, 100,000 years later, her strength is likely even more terrifying.
Judging from her stance, if Fang Xian cannot produce the "Great Dao Fruit," a battle is inevitable.
This fight seems unavoidable.
Considering Number 18's actions, she is certainly not a kind person.
Therefore, Fang Xian must strike first.
Fang Xian smiled kindly and said softly, "I'll give it to you now."
As he spoke, he secretly used "Trickery: Mind Interference" and "Fire Illusion."
"Here you go, say thank you."
Number 18 looked at Fang Xian, who was talking to himself, and his eyes turned cold.
"Fang Xian, are you playing me?"
Fang Xian shook his head with a wry smile. Even using both skills simultaneously hadn't affected Number 18; it seemed he had no choice but to attack head-on.
A sneak attack wouldn't work against a powerhouse like Number 18; it was better to unleash his full power.
With a thought, a strange, faint light emanated from his body.
In an instant, a set of "divine artifact" equipment spread rapidly from his ankles like a tidal wave, each armor plate tightly interlocking, perfectly covering his entire body in the blink of an eye.
Following this, red energy surged forth from the "Mech Ring" like a torrent, quickly coiling and enveloping Fang Xian's entire body.
Amidst the surging energy, arcs of electricity flickered and crackled.
The "Super God Mech" stood like a blood-soaked war god, its entire body a vibrant yet deep crimson.
When the "Super God Mech" was completely enveloped by the "Divine Artifact Set," the two merged perfectly, emanating a powerful aura that caused the surrounding air to tremble.
He flicked his hands, and two swords appeared from the "System Inventory," settling steadily in his palms—the super divine artifacts
—the "Limitless Twin Swords."
The twin swords seemed to resonate with his soul, their blades trembling slightly and emitting a clear, melodious sword cry.
The sword's cry was high-pitched and powerful, containing boundless fighting spirit and murderous aura, causing the heavens and earth to pale in comparison.
At this moment, Fang Xian was like a war god, his every move seemingly wielding the power of heaven and earth, inspiring awe in all who beheld him.
Dongfang Shanshui, seeing Fang Xian's appearance, was instantly terrified and hurriedly shouted:
"All members of the royal family, evacuate immediately!"
Seeing this, even the most foolish among the members of the human royal family knew what was about to happen, and they all desperately fled.
The Grand Elder, Dongfang Feihu, and the Human Emperor, Dongfang Shanshui, quickly told Fang Xian and then hastily retreated.
They had never seen Fang Xian unleash such full power; it seemed the short-haired blonde woman was an extremely terrifying being.
This level of battle was beyond their capabilities; they didn't even have the right to observe. The aftershocks alone could obliterate them.
Number 18, looking at Fang Xian's appearance, merely curled her lips in contempt.
"Ha! It seems you've already used up the 'Fruit of the Great Dao'."
"Very well, you even dare to take what belongs to that lord for yourself, then there's no point in keeping you in this vast world."
"Today, you will all..."
"—Die!"
Fang Xian stood imposingly, wielding the "Limitless Twin Swords."
"Then let's fight."
"Hmph! You're asking for death!"
Number 18's lips curled into a disdainful smile.
Her body vanished from the spot in an instant, like a ghost.
Fang Xian keenly sensed a powerful force approaching from behind. He swiftly turned, crossing his twin swords to block Number 18's rapid, barrage of kicks.
"Clang!"
A loud crash rang out, sparks flying from the clashing metal.
Number 18's power made Fang Xian's arm slightly numb, but he still managed to withstand the attack with his own strength.
"Interesting."
She hadn't expected that a human from a low-level world could so easily block her attack.
"This will get even more interesting."
Fang Xian's lips curled into a slight smile as he wielded his twin swords, unleashing a frenzied attack.
His swordsmanship was sharp and unpredictable, each strike imbued with immense power, determined to shred Number 18 into pieces.
Number 18 moved nimbly through the sword shadows, skillfully dodging each attack while searching for openings.
Suddenly, she noticed a brief pause in Fang Xian's attack rhythm.
"Now!"
Number 18 accelerated abruptly, delivering a powerful punch to Fang Xian's chest.
Fang Xian's eyes narrowed, and a "Light Energy Shield" instantly appeared, blocking Number 18's heavy punch.
"Boom!"
A deafening roar erupted as the powerful force sent Fang Xian flying, gliding dozens of meters through the air before coming to a stop.
"Crack!"
"Bang!"
Fang Xian's "Light Energy Shield" shattered under the impact of that single blow.
The "Light Energy Shield," which had withstood tens of thousands of attacks in the sci-fi world without a scratch, couldn't even withstand a single punch from Number 18.
"Human, to be able to fight me for several rounds without dying, you deserve to witness true terror."
Number 18's eyes suddenly sharpened like an eagle's, and her aura began to become chaotic.
She tilted her head slightly, and an invisible yet immense power erupted from her body.
With a "whoosh," a powerful shockwave spread wildly outwards from her, forming a massive vortex.
A layer of golden flames slowly ignited around Number 18, enveloping her body like liquid.
The golden flames burned brighter and brighter, sizzling and rising and falling slightly with her breathing and movements, emanating a chilling aura.
"Human, to die in my 'Raging Aura' state, you deserve to die."
Fang Xian felt a powerful force, and a slight smile appeared on his lips, his eyes filled with excitement.
"It's been a long time since I've fought anyone with my full strength. Now, I'll show you my
true power."
