Even Fang Xingjian could not help but frown as he looked at this monstrous creature.

Behind him, Maria and the other two could not suppress the terror they were feeling. This was especially so for the black-haired and green-haired young men. Their faces were flush red, and their muscles contracted intensely and explosively as they shouted, "Let us go."

"Damn it. We're all done in by you."

"Quickly escape, id*ot!"

Maria was the only one who still had a hint of calmness left. It was because she recognized Fang Xingjian's identity. Although she had no idea that Fang Xingjian had already attained a breakthrough to tier six of the Divine level, she still had great confidence in his abilities.

The monstrous fish had seen Fang Xingjian by now, and it let out a series of roars. Many human faces rose up on its back, and it was as if there were countless people bellowing out furiously, crying out agonizingly, cursing, or weeping.

It was a terrifying yet disgusting sight, causing anyone who saw this scene to break out uncontrollably in goosebumps.

It was at this moment that Fang Xingjian realized the sounds which came out from the creature's mouth were not roars. Instead, the sounds were shouts being made by these human faces from within its body. Their voices passed through the creature's body and emerged through its mouth.

The monstrous fish's appearance became increasingly hideous. It seemed like the embodiment of all evils, emitting endless nefariousness.

Fang Xingjian frowned as he looked at this monster. Hints of disgust and annoyance rose up in his heart.

However, he immediately reacted almost at the moment this emotion appeared.

'What a monster. To think that it can bring about a fluctuation to my emotions?'

Fang Xingjian's gaze flickered, and black sword marks extended out directly onto the monstrous fish's body. The countless black sword marks instantly engulfed it, as if wanting to cut it up into several hundred pieces of fish slices in an instant.

Purely black sword marks suddenly appeared like spatial cracks, and the black void emitted destructive auras. When the two young men saw the sword marks, they could only feel breath-taking sword intents gushing out toward them, stopping their trains of thought and blanking out their minds completely.

Yet, after the series of slashes from the sword marks struck down and then eventually dissipated from space, the monstrous fish still stood unscathed at its original position.

Thereafter, with a movement, it pounced toward Fang Xingjian.

"Hmm?" Fang Xingjian was slightly taken by surprise. It was true that he had not expected his sword marks to be ineffective against this monster.

Still, Fang Xingjian was a tier six Divine level expert after all. At the instant the sword marks were ineffective, he reacted and countless possibilities flashed past through his mind.

The sword marks were unable to have any effect... That meant this creature was either an existence that surpassed space-time or...

At the next moment, a black sword mark suddenly swept out before Fang Xingjian. The monstrous fish suddenly disappeared without a trace as a series of shrill and agonizing cries rang out.

The attacks which slashed the monstrous fish's body were useless, yet the attacks which slashed out in the air caused it to disappear. At the sight of this, Maria and the other two young men revealed astonished gazes.

"What's going on?" Maria asked. "Could it be that monster was an illusion and that its actual body is concealed somewhere else?"

Fang Xingjian replied indifferently, "The monstrous fish was an illusion, but its true form can't be considered as concealed."

Under Fang Xingjian's senses, he could tell that the monstrous fish was merely a visual signal sent out by the other party. This monster in the crypt was just a situational existence created by waves—waves which were hidden in people's hearts and in the air.

It could be said that this sort of method was already close to the legendary heavenly demon or the mind demon.

'This should be the act of the Plenary Foundation Septet. Turning into the mind demon that's hidden in people's hearts...? There are endless variations, yet it has no shape or form. As expected of the means of a tier six Divine level expert,' Fang Xingjian thought inwardly. 'It's impossible for people below the Divine level to be able to sense such means. And amongst those at the Divine level or higher, one must have a high mastery of illusory arts and electromagnetic waves to be able to kill them.'

As these thoughts ran through Fang Xingjian's mind, he waved his hand. Then a metal wall rose up from under his feet, cutting off the parts of the crypt that was in front and behind him.

"The three of you stay here and don't move. I'll chase that monster. When I return, tell me in detail about everything you've encountered."

As Fang Xingjian said this, the metal wall had already cut off the crypt's passageway into two. Maria and the other two young men had also lost sign of Fang Xingjian's presence.

The black-haired young man looked at this scene in astonishment before asking in a daze, "We're saved?"

The other green-haired young man said, "What on earth is going on? Who is that guy? To think that he's able to fight against this crypt's monster..."

Maria replied calmly, "That's Lord Fang Xingjian. With him around, what can mere monsters in this crypt do?"

"To think that it's Lord Sword Overlord?" Hearing Maria's words, both young men were surprised. Astonishment and excitement filled up their gazes.

...

After Fang Xingjian sealed up the path behind him, he continued walking along the crypt's passageway like he was taking a stroll.

The other party was the mind demon. It had no shape or form and could not be detected by ordinary means. This was especially so as it could even move at light speed. It meant that one could only see the past images of this mind demon and not see it at the actual moment.

Most scouting means used light speed reflections of all sorts of waves to sense their targets. So, if the target were moving at light speed, it would be impossible to capture the target at the present moment.

Therefore, Fang Xingjian was in no hurry. He merely took one step after another, with each step crossing a distance of several hundred meters. With each step he took, a metal wall rose from the ground, cutting off the passageway behind him.

By doing so, he slowly reduced the space in which the other party could survive.

'Although this mind demon is without any shape or form and can even influence other people's thoughts, it doesn't have the ability to interfere with the material world.

'These corpses on the ground all seemed to have had their bodies taken up by the mind demon. After that, they died from fighting each other.'

Fang Xingjian had not taken many steps before he realized that something was amiss. The size of the crypt far surpassed the size that it should be.

'The crypt's size has been changed due to the size of the space itself? It seems that the demonic figure here has really escaped.'

Clearly, the structure of the crypt had changed by an expert expanding and changing spatial structures. A small and simple crypt had become a massive and densely-packed structure like a hornet's nest. However, this was convenient for that mind demon to run amok in people's hearts.

'I wonder who changed this space. It seems that these Knights in the crypt were also thrown in here by this person. Otherwise, it would be impossible for ordinary Knights to enter a place that's so deep underground.'

However, Fang Xingjian was still not particularly surprised. When he encountered a fork in the road, he would split himself into two, and then repeat again when the situation arose again. Really soon after, several thousand clones were exploring the entire crypt, forcing the mind demon into the very last corner.

Roar!

An unresigned roar rang out, and the monstrous fish's body shattered, dissipating into the air. However, Fang Xingjian's body was soon covered by countless bits of protein, and many dead fish glared at him as they darted out from under his skin.

'Hmph, how dare you still continue to cause mischief.'

With an explosive bang, it sounded as if an agonizing cry had rung out in the air. Then the strange image before Fang Xingjian's eyes disappeared completely.In a more general case, it's usually referred to as the demon/devil in a person's heart. But for the sake of this context and for easy mention, I'll refer to it as the mind demon.
