Chapter 382: Chapter 309: Invitation from the Martial God (Request for Monthly Ticket)

The next day.

Fang Xing glanced at his attribute panel:

[Gate of All Heavens: 2/100 (Locating)]

A hint of joy emerged on his face, "A point progressed in just one day, can I open the next world in just over three months?"

For him, whose life was exceedingly long, just over three months truly felt like a flick of a finger.

"Three months, totally worth the wait."

Fang Xing’s expression was quite excited.

Then, he entered the Virtual Cabin and began to read through numerous S-rank Martial Arts in the Virtual Space.

...

On a cliffside thousands of feet in height.

Fang Xing stood towering like a mountain, his figure seeming as though it would whisk away with the wind at any moment.

"This ’Dragon-Subduing and Tiger-Subduing Skill’, still has some noteworthy aspects..."

He tossed an ancient book casually.

A terrifying wind swept through, instantly turning the ancient book into countless fragments, fluttering like butterflies.

By continuously learning new Martial Arts, extracting their essence, and integrating them into his ’Star Martial Six Extremes’, the skill level of Fang Xing’s Star Martial Six Extremes kept on increasing.

"But when can I truly reach perfection, or even break through to Grandmaster level proficiency?"

A hint of anticipation arose in his heart, and then he looked towards the void.

Little Blue’s figure appeared, "Master... You have an important communication!"

"From whom?"

Fang Xing frowned, as he disliked interruptions while studying Martial Arts.

To be categorized as important by Little Blue, worthy of disturbing him, could it be an investigation of his Mecha factory?

"From the president of Blue Star University, Martial God ’Ye Liuyun’!"

Little Blue said.

"It’s the president."

Fang Xing realized somewhat startled, recalling the President’s Gathering and Dispersing Buddha Body, which had left a deep impression on him during the Moon God event.

Moreover, this was a Martial God at the absolute peak of Martial Arts!

Truly a major figure standing at the summit of the Federation.

"His communication?"

Fang Xing grew interested, "What did he say?"

"It’s an invitation from President Ye’s AI, hoping to meet with you in the Virtual Space."

Little Blue replied.

Fang Xing nodded; he hadn’t even graduated with his doctorate yet.

The president of Blue Star University wanting to meet him presumably wasn’t a bad thing.

’It wouldn’t likely be because I’ve been closely associated with Nine Swords Academy recently that he decides to clean house, right?’

’If it were about cleaning house, we certainly wouldn’t meet in the Virtual Space.’

Fang Xing silently chuckled to himself.

Then, he took a step forward and his form suddenly vanished, plunging from the cliff!

...

Thud, Thud!

A sensation of weightlessness came, and soon Fang Xing found himself in an unfamiliar space.

Giant stone steles stood tall in all directions, giving him a sense some of Wan Ling Catalog’s style.

But engraved on these steles were not Martial Arts, but rather something very much like Martial Arts Will Secret Patterns.

On one cyan stone wall, there were countless scratches like wind, numerous cyan winds with an almost spiritual nature, gathering on the rock wall.

Another wall, crimson like magma, featured blazing fire and flowing heat...

There was also a yellowish-brown rock wall, carrying the thick sense of the earth.

The last wall was a deep blue like the ocean.

"Earth, fire, wind, water?"

Fang Xing muttered to himself.

"Truly, the most outstanding student from Blue Star University in centuries. Recognizing the Secret Techniques on these steles at a glance..."

A gentle voice came.

Fang Xing looked over and saw an old man in a white outfit, looking at him warmly, indeed it was Martial God Ye Liuyun.

"Good day, President."

Fang Xing promptly saluted, "The most outstanding student is too great an honor for me to claim."

"Ha-ha, Fang Xing, you need not be so modest."

Ye Liuyun, despite his elderly appearance, exuded a vibrant and youthful energy, as if his vigor was inexhaustible.

It was only right that a Martial God’s physical body was nearly immortal.

He laughed heartily and then said, "Blue Star University has produced quite a few Martial Saints and Martial Gods... but you are the first to progress from bachelor to master and finally get promoted to Martial Saint during your PhD."

"Furthermore, I have watched your videos from the Interstellar Martial Competition... You were able to simplify the Tathagata Divine Palm while in the Vajra Realm, and by now you must have truly mastered this peerless martial art. Coupled with your promotion to a powerful Martial Saint while in the Great Vajra Realm... I fear that without using a Mecha, your strength would rank among the top in the Federation’s Martial Saints."

Ye Liuyun’s expression was quite sentimental.

"The Interstellar Martial Competition? That...I was under a pseudonym, wasn’t I?" Fang Xing guessed as much, yet his face still showed a hint of surprise.

"Ha-ha, this old skeleton happens to be one of the shareholders of the ’Federation Holographic Universe Company’... but rest assured, we shareholders are monitored by the Omniscient Brain, and the information is kept confidential and will not be disseminated."

Ye Liuyun hinted, "You also don’t need to worry about old Gu coming after you..."

Fang Xing could only offer a wry smile.

Back then, to mix resources, he joined the group that simplified the Tathagata Divine Palm, perfectly mastering the art of producing watered-down papers.

And the ironic part was his advisor was still oblivious, foolishly believing Fang Xing was giving his best...

Thinking about it now, if Fang Xing were in his advisor’s shoes, he probably would have turned hostile.

However, after his promotion to Martial Saint, these were all but trifles.

"So the principal is actually a shareholder in the ’Federation Holographic Universe Company’?"

What Fang Xing cared more about, however, was the company itself: "Do you know if the holographic simulation of the Seventh Realm has come out yet?"

"It is already capable of sustaining the combat power of the Seventh Realm. It will soon be released to the market, and even real combat simulations of the Eighth Realm are possible, but only for a very short duration and in a limited area... It can only be used in a small range."

Ye Liuyun shook his head, "The Eighth Realm is already the limit of virtual space technology. Simulating the Ninth Realm is completely impossible. We have encountered a significant technical hurdle... Even the most optimistic estimates suggest we might be stuck for hundreds of years."

"Hundreds of years... that’s not very long."

Fang Xing reflected aloud, "Moreover, having a standardized Seventh Realm and occasionally the Eighth Realm... that would have a tremendously significant impact and advancement on the Martial Arts of the Blue Star Federation."

"Indeed, our initial purpose in hosting the competition was to promote Federation Martial Arts... Although other professionals also greatly develop through virtual space, none can compare to Martial Arts!"

Ye Liuyun was both excited and a bit melancholic, "Unfortunately, after the Ninth Realm of Martial Arts, there’s no path ahead... Us old folks still hoped that the virtual space could simulate the combat power of Martial Artists in the Ninth or even Tenth Realm to provide some breakthrough help... but it seems we don’t have time now."

"No time?"

Fang Xing was puzzled, "Even if we encounter a technological bottleneck, waiting a few hundred years shouldn’t be a big deal for us, should it?"

After all, the lifespan of a Martial God was infinite, even if the mind would eventually degrade, but that wouldn’t happen for tens of thousands of years.

"Logically, that’s true, but I trust my Spiritual Sense, the longer we delay, the more dangerous it gets... Thus, I might resign from my position as the president of Blue Star University in a few years and attempt to break through above Martial God, paving the way for those who come after."

There was a strong heroic aura about Ye Liuyun, born from the days when star colonization first began and he fought countless bloody battles against myriad Outer Realm Evil God’s Clans!

"When the time comes, I will choose to broadcast the breakthrough process across the universe. Make sure to watch."

Ye Liuyun seemed indifferent to the outcome, "If I succeed, it will be fortunate for Martial Artists. If I fail, you can learn from my lesson..."

"Principal..." Fang Xing was somewhat surprised and wanted to persuade him, but couldn’t find the words to do so.

With his own Martial Arts Will, if someone else tried to persuade him, he would definitely not listen.

"Ha-ha... What kind of scenery lies above Martial God? Although the Academy of Sciences has made many hypotheses... every single one must be verified, even if it costs my life."

Ye Liuyun looked at Fang Xing, "Today, I mainly wanted to meet the man who will one day carry the mantle of Blue Star University... Your major is the Tathagata Divine Palm, and your path from Martial Saint to Martial God is clear, but what about after Martial God? How will you cultivate?"

He seemed to have the intention to guide Fang Xing a bit, "What’s needed after Martial God is ’enlightenment’... The path you will embark on, and the Martial Arts you will practice, all stem from those pioneered by predecessors... But when you reach Martial God, you are at the peak of Martial Arts; there is no established Martial Arts to follow, and you must forge your own path."

"In the beginning, there’s no need to choose the difficult ones first; rather, you can start by creating some low-rank Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts Combat Skills... Then proceed from easy to hard, step-by-step..."

Ye Liuyun earnestly advised, "Above Martial God, I believe the pursuit should aim for the immortality of the soul, and then integrate this immortal soul with the immortal body to achieve the state of ’True Immortality.’"

"After immortality, one should comprehend the Laws and reach for the Authority... Undoubtedly, that is how those Outer Realm Evil Gods operate, and so our path might be similar."

...

Fang Xing listened seriously with a solemn expression.

This was personal experience being imparted by a being at the pinnacle of Martial God.

If Fang Xing wasn’t Blue Star University’s most outstanding student, he likely wouldn’t have received this valuable opportunity.

He was not lacking in resources for breakthroughs; what he lacked were these kinds of experiences and insights!

"By the way... I heard you’ve been quite close with Nine Swords Academy recently?"

At the end, Ye Liuyun alluded to something with his words.

"Yes, to build a Mecha, I sourced a batch of Evil God Materials from the black market... I reached out to Nine Swords Academy for a bit of support."

Fang Xing replied softly.

"You managed to get the main materials for a Mecha?"

Ye Liuyun was somewhat surprised and somewhat relieved, "Good, good... I was worried that in order to obtain a Martial Saint Mecha, you might have to sign some unfair agreements with other major forces, but it seems now that there’s no need to worry."

He pondered for a moment and sent a letter of appointment via his smart brain.

"This is..."

Fang Xing looked at it, visibly moved.

"Once your doctoral thesis is approved, you can stay at the university and take up a position."

Ye Liuyun said, "I certainly won’t mistreat you. As a Vajra Realm, you can be a mentor; you could at least be a grade director or a teaching director. If you prefer not to be busy, you can also hold a nominal position... How does this compare to Nine Swords Academy?"

"Thank you, Principal, for your high regard."

Fang Xing quickly agreed.
