Streams of thoughts flashed past very quickly in Fang Xingjian's mind. The next moment, he had already opened his eyes and put up an OK hand sign toward the sky.
After seeing Fang Xingjian's signal through the satellites, Fang Yuehe nodded and said, "Continue. Shoot out another nuclear missile with a yield of 0.5 megatons."
Just like that, Fang Xingjian put up with the blasts from nuclear missiles time and time again. More and more physical particles were stimulated in his body, and strength surged throughout his body like roaring mountains and howling seas.
As the power which exploded from the physical particles continued to grow, Fang Xingjian felt somewhat unaccustomed to it. This caused waves of radiations to burst forth incessantly from his body, forming many circles of light.
At the beginning, there were many clans observing Fang Xingjian's nuclear experiments. When they heard that the missiles Fang Xingjian used were with a yield of 0.5 megatons, they did not think much of it.
After all, Li Shuanghua had even managed to withstand a nuclear missile with a yield of 50 megatons previously, so what did missiles with a yield of 0.5 megatons matter?
However, after watching how Fang Xingjian come out unscathed after being struck with missile after missile, all of them slowly started to feel astonished.
After one day and one night, over 1,000 nuclear missiles had exploded on Fang Xingjian's body. As such, all the clans who were observing this scene had started to feel stricken with terror.
Just then, the nuclear explosions stopped. However, it was not because Fang Xingjian could not take it anymore. Instead, it was because the large amount of nuclear radiations and corpuscular flow had caused serious damage to the earth and destroyed a tremendous number of electronic devices.
There had been far too many nuclear explosions, which had impacted Fang Xingjian’s surroundings despite him staying several tens of kilometers high up in the sky.
Therefore, from then on, Fang Xingjian changed the methods. Since any form of nuclear radiation would be able to stimulate the physical particles in his body, he went to the greatest nuclear power plant there was. He did not wear any protective clothing and went straight next to the reactor.
In order to get a deeper impact from the reactor, he performed Infiltrating Void directly and then entered the internal part of the nuclear reactor. Then he started to experience the chain reaction from the nuclear fission.
Corpuscular flow smashed crazily against Fang Xingjian's body, and his physical particles were awakened one after another, releasing surging energy currents.
As the amount of power Fang Xingjian could utilize increased, the prowess of his sword arts cultivation got increasingly stronger although his physical body had not improved by much.
Amidst the five tiers of perfection, the toughness of one’s body determined the defense capabilities of one’s physical body.
Specialty seeds determined the physical body's strength.
Brain regeneration determined the body's recovery abilities, calculative abilities, and the power of one's will.
Ether organs determined the amount of information and energy one could accept from ether particles. They also affected one's energy recovery abilities as well as one's observation skills.
As for the number of physical particles, that determined when one's skills would be unleashed explosively. The more stimulated physical particles there were and the more power one stored up day by day, the greater the unleashed prowess from their techniques would be.
The more tiers of perfection one achieved, the better one's body would be developed. So, when it was time to strive to attain the Divine level, the power one had when their consciousness materialized would be even stronger.
Now that Fang Xingjian had more power to activate his sword techniques, the prowess of his Five God-Slashing Sword would be even more powerful than before.
For the Infiltrating Void, the area of the spatial gaps one he could enter would be wider, and his speed of entering the gaps would be faster.
For the Light Pursuit sword ripples, Fang Xingjian could now perform nine million streams of Light Pursuit sword ripples at once.
For the All-Conquering sword, Fang Xingjian could now create a valley that was over ten kilometers long. He could also wipe out a nuclear missile with a yield of 0.5 megatons with a single sword.
For the Instant, the area it could reach now broke through 100 meters and reached 120 meters.
However, Fang Xingjian was clearly still not satisfied with these. So, he had gone straight into the reactor and ha not come out since. The physical particles in his body increased crazily at rocket speed. It was only when his physical body could not take it anymore that he came out to take a break.
1,000... 10,000... 10,000.... one million... ten million... In just one day, the number of physical particles which had been awakened in Fang Xingjian's body had already reached ten million.
However, compared to the total of 1.08 billion physical particles, ten million was still far too little. Therefore, over the next few days, Fang Xingjian would spend his time in the reactor almost everyday. His physical body was incessantly subjected to impacts from various nuclear radiations and light radiations, causing his power to rise tremendously at rocket speed.
In the end, Fang Xingjian even pulled Tyrant in together with him to condense physical particles through the reactor.
Tyrant was originally a Demigod who had attained two tiers of perfection to begin with, and he had even engulfed the corpse of two Divine level experts recently. Right now, his five great attributes had already attained a breakthrough to 500 points. Although his martial will was still multiple times weaker than Fang Xingjian's, his physical body was multiple times stronger than Fang Xingjian’s.
Having entered the nuclear reactor, along with Fang Xingjian performing Infiltrating Void occasionally to help out in their training, Tyrant's cultivation improved at a tremendous rate.
Just like that, the two of them stayed in the reactor for three months.
...
Three months later, even though Fang Yuehe had become the wielder of power in the Fang Clan, as well as a top notch character in the world, he was now waiting quietly at the entrance of the nuclear power plant.
Concurrently, amidst the countless mountains and endless stretch of skies, as well as on the ground, many magic prints Warriors stayed hidden as if they were all waiting for Fang Xingjian. They had been waiting curiously at the nuclear power plant for the entire three months, wanting to know what on earth had happened.
After a really long time, the door to the nuclear power plant opened slowly, and two silhouettes walked out. However, when Fang Yuehe saw the two of them, he broke into an astonished expression.
Fang Xingjian's and Tyrant's hair had grown to a very long length. However, their heads of hair were unlike those of ordinary people which draped down their shoulders. Instead, Fang Xingjian’s and Tyrant’s heads of hair were floating up like flames burning on the tops of their heads.
The stranger thing was that as their heads of hair fluttered like flames, they themselves were emitting a white glow.
From afar, it was as if white flames were burning ceaselessly on their heads.
The two of them were also exuding streams of faint white light, with hints of thin electric currents exploding outside their bodies.
Looking at the two people who continued to emit light, Fang Yuehe's mouth was agape as he asked, "You... What's the matter with the two of you?"
Tyrant did not say anything, while Fang Xingjian replied, "The energy is too strong, and we keep unleashing radiation. I think we'll probably need to take a few weeks to get accustomed to it."
Fang Xingjian threw a glance toward Fang Yuehe and said, "Go ahead with the preparations. I won't be staying on Earth for long before I head back to Miracle World."
...
Elsewhere on the shores of the Miracle World's Western Sea, at an area close to the where the two worlds overlapped, there were nine Gray Robed Mages standing silently in midair, looking down at the seawater while remaining motionless.
"He’s not here yet?"
"We've already waited for three months."
"We might as well just head over to the other side."
"That won't do. The diabolic energy there is too weak. We might end up being the ones failing miserably."
"How is that possible? For the past three months, the density of the ether particles and diabolic energy have been increasing at a tremendous rate. Moreover, our cultivation has improved immensely during this period of time. On the other hand, Fang Xingjian has been staying in the other world all this time. His cultivation has probably been stagnant."
"That's right. With our achievements for the past three months, we'll be able to crush Fang Xingjian."
"Let's wait."
With the last male voice ringing out, the other eight people disappeared one after another. Only one person remained in midair, keeping his gaze on the seas.
