“Unexpectedly, you’ve combined the Thirteen Breeze Swords into one move, and the power has increased so much!”

The Unparalleled Demon Emperor’s eyes twitched.

He originally thought that joining with the righteous path and launching a surprise attack on the Everchanging Demon Lord was a flawless plan.

However, he did not expect the Everchanging Demon Lord to be so fierce. With a sword move, he had killed two God-tier martial artists!

At this level, he was almost not even in the same realm. An ominous feeling overcame him.

“Good swordplay!”

When the Heavenly Sword Sect Master saw this, he immediately grasped his sword and attacked.

His sword was like an otherworldly immortal. It could be sought but not seen, just like a new moon. When his sword collided with the demon’s sword, it immediately caused a shower of sparks.

“Amitabha!”

A figure shouted and entered the battle, looking like a golden arhat.

The Autumn Leaf Divine Monk! The Impenetrable Vajra Arhat Technique!

Today, the top three on the Martial Roll were besieging the Everchanging Demon Lord!

This scene left numerous people from the Pugilistic World shocked, but soon after, their expressions turned to excitement as they stared without blinking.

“Being able to withstand the siege of the top three on the Martial Roll, the Everchanging Demon Lord is the true number one in this world!”

“He’s cultivated for less than twenty years, but he’s already the top martial artist in the world!”

“He’s not merely talented, he’s a demon! A Demon!!!”

...

“Fang Xu...” Wang Tianming’s fingernails dug into his skin. “I may not be as strong as you, but you will definitely die here today!”

“A little troublesome!”

Fang Yuan’s fire and water shield turned into an illusionary lotus, protecting his vital points.

Even though he had comprehended the four intents and was only a step away from fusing them, he was still only a God-tier martial artist. The Divine Monk and the others had greater experience and deeper cultivation power.

The top three on the Martial Roll were attacking him while the others closed off his escape path, immediately giving him a little pressure.

“Demon Extinction Fist!” Unparalleled Demon Emperor Nie Wuji roared. His fists were covered with black Qi as he unleashed his flexible sword.

“Great Compassionate Hand!” The Autumn Leaf Divine Monk looked benevolent. His hand had a golden glow, and he slowly pushed out. Fang Yuan’s expression changed as he blocked with his left hand.

There was a rumor in the Pugilistic World that in terms of cultivation power and martial arts, the Autumn Leaf Divine Monk was the true number one. Only, the monk did not have the heart to compete, so the Demon Emperor took the position.

The Divine Monk and the Demon Emperor, these two former opponents, worked together with impeccable coordination, suppressing Fang Yuan from both sides.

“Good! Heavenly Sword!”

The Heavenly Sword Sect Master united with his sword into a streak of light, seizing this golden opportunity to immediately attack.

Poof!

The rotating fire and water lotus withered under the sword light.

Poof!

Blood splattered.

Even though the Qi shield broke, it bought Fang Yuan some time. He managed to slant his head and only suffered a wound on his shoulder.

“I poured all my power into that attack. Even the Unparalleled Demon Body couldn’t take it head-on, but unexpectedly, I merely injured your shoulder!”

The sword light transformed into the Heavenly Sword Sect Master. “What an amazing body-refining technique!”

Fang Yuan looked at his wound and said nonchalantly, “Damn old man, you’re also the first in the world to truly injure my spirit!”

If the Heavenly Sword Sword Intent had invaded the body of an ordinary Connate or even a God-tier martial artist, even if they did not receive a fatal injury, their meridians would break, causing their death.

However, his body-refining technique was directly obtained from the Intent of Earth, most likely the best in this world. Any Sword Qi that entered his body would immediately whittle away. His wound was merely superficial.

“However, if a single sword pierces a vital point, it’ll be a little troublesome... There’s truly a bit of pressure!”

Fang Yuan licked his lips and started running his cultivation technique at full force.

He continued to merge the four intents and began to peep into the highest level of Martial Intent.

“Again. As long as we hit his vitals, he’ll die!”

The Unparalleled Demon Emperor roared, clearly identifying the key to victory.

In a one-on-one fight, none of them were Fang Yuan’s opponent. But if they worked together, there was a chance of killing him!

“Everchanging Demon Lord... forgive us. We can’t do this according to the Pugilistic World’s rules. But if we let you run loose, you will certainly be a calamity to the Pugilistic World!” The Autumn Leaf Divine Monk sighed.

On the other hand, Ling Xian’er’s and Wang Tianming’s eyes glowed. “Will this demon fall?”

“Come!” Fang Yuan’s robes were soaked in blood, but his eyes grew brighter. “Do you know why I let the three of you live even though you are the biggest threats to me? I want to rely on you to give me life-and-death pressure so that I can make a breakthrough!”

The Unparalleled Demon Emperor was keen. With eagerness in his eyes, he asked, “Breakthrough? Is there a realm beyond God-tier?”

“That’s right. Although this world cultivates the Martial Dao, starting from the Acquired realm, then the Connate realm, and finally the God-tier realm, above it...”

Fang Yuan stood with his hands behind his back and yearning in his eyes. “Using my own strength, I will break through the world’s limits. I’ve named it ‘Shattering Vortex’!”

“Above God-tier, Shattering Vortex?”

These God-tier martial artists suddenly became aware. “I see... you collected so many secret manuals to break through... What a shame!”

“To be able to battle today, I will have no regrets no matter how it ends!” The Heavenly Sword Sect Master grasped his long sword and laughed heartily.

“Good! Come!” Fang Yuan’s eyes glowed brighter. “After hearing about the Shattering Vortex realm, do you feel enlightenment and excitement in your martial heart? This was my intention, to make you reach your optimal state!”

He was undoubtedly walking on a tightrope.

He intentionally left the strongest martial artists and allowed them to join hands to threaten his life.

At the same time, he constantly stimulated them with his words, pushing their mental state to higher realms.

“Great!”

The auras of the Unparalleled Demon Emperor, the Autumn Leaf Divine Monk, and the Heavenly Sword Sect Master rose dramatically. Clearly, they had gained a lot. They exchanged glances and immediately shot forward together.

Three earth-shattering True Primordial Qi surrounded Fang Yuan in an instant.

“Good!” Fang Yuan’s eyes were bright. Under the immense pressure, he began combining the four intents and broke through his final bottleneck.

“It’s done!”

“Although I’ve long comprehended the Intent of Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, I needed a bit more to merge them into the Intent of Chaos... Even if I could have done it in a few years, who knows how much time would pass in the outside world and what would happen. Therefore, the sooner, the better. These three were the whetstones I selected!”

At this moment, under the pressure of life and death, he finally managed to break through.

Fang Yuan made his move and punched.

This punch was simple, but it had the four Intents of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water merging into one.

Rumble!

The sky trembled, cutting open a huge hole, and the surrounding space shattered.

“Shattering Vortex?”

The Unparalleled Demon Emperor and the others were in shock as they watched the black hole expand and devour all their attacks.

“That’s right. Shattering Vortex is the pinnacle of the Martial Dao!”

Fang Yuan took a step, teleported to in front of the three, and extended both palms. Under the chaos, the Autumn Leaf Divine Monk and the Heavenly Sword Sect Master turned into dust.

“What an amazing Shattering Vortex. I’ve witnessed the epitome of martial arts today and can die without regrets!”

When he saw this, the Unparalleled Demon Emperor sat cross-legged with a touch of release and a trace of longing on his face. “If there is a next life, I will definitely practice martial arts again!”

Trails of blood poured out from his seven apertures. He had decided to end his life with his own hands.

“What happened?”

Outside the arena, Wang Tianming, Ling Xian’er, the Inferno Slayer, the Xue Family Brothers, and the Demon Sect experts saw this scene, and their eyes immediately widened.

At first, the Divine Monk and the other two had the advantage.

However, the Everchanging Demon Lord had summoned a black hole and reversed the situation in an instant.

“There are also the other God-tier martial artists. They’re all trouble, so I can’t leave a single one alive!”

Fang Yuan turned his head, spotted the Inferno Slayer, and sent a palm from afar.

Rumble!

The air trembled, and the shockwaves reached the man ranked tenth on the Martial Roll.

He did not even let out a cry as he dissolved into dust.

“In this world, after you’ve attained the Shattering Vortex realm, you are basically invincible. Everyone else is an ant!”

Fang Yuan sighed. The Shattering Vortex realm was something that should not have existed in this world, but he had forcibly made it happen.

However, after he completed it, he sensed the world’s repulsion.

“It’s repelling, not shattering! It seems like this isn’t a dream world, but a fusion of world fragments! In that case...”

He teleported before the Xue family brothers and extended two fingers.

Poof!

Their heads exploded instantly.

Soon after, Fang Yuan spotted the group of Demon Sect elders. There were some God-tier martial artists hidden among them. They seemed to want to beg for mercy, but without waiting for them to say a sword, his sleeve flapped and reduced them to dust.

“I’ve already killed the top ten on the Martial Roll and numerous Connate perfection martial artists along the way. The entire Pugilistic World can be considered a weak generation now. With Fang Tianhan’s God-tier strength, if he’s ambitious enough, he might be able to unify the Pugilistic World and become the overlord!”

Fang Yuan took a look at himself. Void ripples gathered around him, making his figure look like a dream.

“It’s time to go, but...”

He stepped into the void and appeared before two people, Wang Tianming and Ling Xian’er.

“This Son of the World has already reached Connate perfection, and he’ll likely break through to the God-tier realm. I can’t let him live!”

Fang Yuan understood the principle of cutting the grass and eliminating the roots.

If he remained in this world, he naturally did mind leaving him around for fun. But if Fang Tianhan met Wang Tianming, it really would not be fun.

After all, he had providence on his side. Maybe after being hunted down a few times, he would break through to God-tier and begin fighting back.

Therefore, it was better to eliminate the problem before it sprouted.

“If you want to kill Big Brother Wang, you’ll have to kill me first!”

On the verge of life and death, Ling Xian’er stepped forward bravely.

“No! I’ll put my life on the line!”

Wang Tianming’s eyes were red as he yelled, “No! I’ll put my life on the line!”

“A dying struggle!”

Fang Yuan punched, and a terrifying power opened a hole in the air. This black hole devoured the two, turning them into powder. Not even their souls remained.

After completing all this, he smiled. His figure was finally devoured by the numerous void ripples. He turned into a beam of light and broke through the void.
