Hearing Fang Xingjian's words, Ulpian was slightly stunned. As he frowned, countless thoughts seemed to flash through his mind in an instant.
It could be said that the things he thought of in this instant were more than the total ponderings of humans for the past 100 years.
Moreover, as he went through such extensive thoughts, he seemed to understand something.
A hint of a smile curled up the corners of his lips. "You think that I'll definitely fail?"
"That's right," Fang Xingjian said with a hint of calmness shining in his eyes. He continued calmly, "It's impossible for you to succeed in your objective. This is clear. Therefore, your future has been the road to ruin from the very beginning.
"The faster your powers grow, the closer you're getting to the end.
"It can be said that amongst the 13 armies, only the Silver Army leads to destruction.
"We have yet to reach the decisive moment in our battle. The competition of strength between us has ended, but the battle of our beliefs has just started. In this battle, you're doomed to lose. It's because your strength has been established upon a void from the very beginning."
Ulpian did not reply. Instead, he just smiled suddenly. "Regardless of what the ending is, you won't be able to see it. Moreover, with my current cultivation, who in this world will be able to stop me?"
Clearly, Ulpian already understood what Fang Xingjian meant. However, he did not agree with Fang Xingjian's words. Instead, he was currently feeling extremely confident in his own strength.
As they spoke, Fang Xingjian's body suddenly shattered as he turned into countless microparticles that scattered in void space. At the next moment, they were completely engulfed by countless microscopic black holes, disappearing entirely.
Right now, Fang Xingjian was unable to hold off a single thought from Ulpian. He instantly turned into dust, and there were no more traces of him to be found.
Seeing this scene, the Immortality Saint revealed an expression of despair. Even Fang Xingjian was unable to stand up to a single round against Ulpian, so what could he possibly do? This time around, their attempt to clear the trial had clearly failed. Moreover, it was a bitter defeat with no hope of winning at all.
Ulpian looked at the Immortality Saint in his hand, and his brows raised a little. A stream of a white light sword was slowly drawn out from the Immortality Saint's will.
The White Emperor Zenith Sword's withdrawal caused the Immortality Saint's agonizing cry to ring out.
He had nurtured the White Emperor Zenith Sword in his martial will for many years, so this world-astonishing Divine Equipment had already merged into one with his will. With Ulpian drawing it out forcibly, it was like someone was drawing out a person's blood vessel slowly. The pain far exceeded the ordinary people's imaginations.
However, Ulpian did not care about these. With a single thought, a huge rumble rang out. The Immortality Saint's martial will instantly shattered into pieces, and a completely pure white stream of white light that was like the first beam of light in this world appeared before Ulpian.
"Great divine equipment. It's a waste for you guys to be using this sword."
As Ulpian spoke, he grabbed toward the White Emperor Zenith Sword.
"No!" Seeing that Ulpian wanted to control the White Emperor Zenith Sword, the Immortality Saint let out an enraged bellow and instantly squeezed out all of his potential.
His martial will that had been extremely weak and seemed like shattered glass instantly gathered together instantly, turning into a pure white human figure. It was the Immortality Saint's original appearance.
At the next moment, he drew out three light spots casually, and three waves of majestic powers came gushing down from void space.
The Immortality Saint was going all out, instantly performing three Divine arts.
As one of the three strongest people in the Church of Universal Truth, the Immortality Saint's strength far surpassed that of ordinary Guardian Kings. The Darkness' Aberration and Death-Revealing Heavenly Eyes had each grasped one supreme Divine art, but the Divine art grasped by the Immortality Saint was greater than that of the two Guardian Kings.
White Drill-128 Stances! 128 white dragons charged out from Ulpian's body. Ulpian's powers were running amok, turning into 128 white dragons that assaulted him.
Pure White Kiss! A layer of white membrane covered Ulpian's body. Everywhere it passed by, all substances and wills were separated, turning all energies and substances into pure dead matter.
Court of Universal Truth! Ulpian's body suddenly disappeared. While being attacked by the previous two Divine arts, he was dragged into a purely white space. 13 human figures surrounded him, bellowing, "Sinner! Receive your judgment!"
The Immortality Saint performed three supreme Divine arts at one go. The prowess of each supreme Divine art was no weaker than the Darkness' Aberration's and the Death-Revealing Heavenly Eyes'. He instantly unleashed the strength that could allow him to dominate the world and have his way among the mortals.
'The Court of Universal Truth can bring out the demons in the opponent's heart, creating 13 new characters. Only after they have killed each other and are left with the last character will it all end.
'Even if this doesn't kill Ulpian, it'll drag out some time.'
Several messages flashed in his mind at lightning speed. With a flicker, the Immortality Saint grabbed out toward the White Emperor Zenith Sword that was floating before his eyes.
However, just as his palm was about to come into contact with the White Emperor Zenith Sword, the Immortality Saint's body instantly came to a standstill.
No, the Immortality Saint's body was not the only thing that had come to a standstill. The entire world seemed to have become motionless. The flames of the burning Sun turned into solidified plasma, and all the microparticles under his feet had been condensed in void space, stopping all reactions.
The Immortality Saint's hideous expression and nervous gaze could be seen. It was as if he had been stopped for eternity at that moment in life.
Right now, all the matter and energies in the world seemed to have come to a standstill.
There was only one matter—or rather, one person—who was unaffected.
Ulpian's feet slowly stepped out from the Court of Universal Truth. Following this, just with a slight tremble, he resolved the White Drill-128 Stances and Pure White Kiss Divine arts.
In the world that had come to a standstill, he could be seen walking toward the White Emperor Zenith Sword step by step. Then he grabbed out with his hand and held onto the White Emperor Zenith Sword.
At almost the instant he grabbed the sword, two streams of white light had already burst out from his eyes. It was not only his eyes. Light was also burst up out from his mouth, nose, and ears.
"This power!
"Excellent! It's better than I had imagined!"
The seven sections of the White Emperor Zenith Sword, which the Immortality Saint had possessed, had the ability to draw energies from other universes directly. The limits were deep and unfathomable and were only dependent on the user's control.
Earlier on, Fang Xingjian was able to rely on the help of the White Emperor Zenith Sword to exchange a blow with Ulpian and did not end up being on the weaker end.
Yet after Ulpian grasped the White Emperor Zenith Sword, his powers reached an unbelievable level.
When the world was moving once again, the Immortality Saint saw that everything before his eyes had turned into a stretch of pure white. There was only pure white light without anything that seemed to be eye-piercing. It was just like a piece of paper. This gradually covered the entire Sun as if wanting to engulf this star that was 100,000 times bigger than Earth
Right now, Ulpian only felt that his strength and will were growing incessantly, advancing toward an unimaginable realm.
