"Damn it."
The young man watched how everything was moving in slow motion around him and wore an expression of great excitement, "This is like the Flash 1 . With an ability like this, I'm invincible."
The young man was the same person who had been lagging a lot while using the internet previously. Thereafter, he realized that as long as he focused his attention, he would be able to enter a state of time acceleration. Everything around him seemed to have to a standstill.
This feeling made him feel like an omnipotent god.
He grinned as he walked in the bank, slapping a beauty on the butt. However, just as his hand reached out for the money on the counter, a tremendous force surged out from the air and pressed down on his back with a boom .
The young man fell onto the ground with a thud , sprawled out just like a toad.
He wanted to lift his head when he realized that there was a heavy weight at the back of his head. Someone was already stepping on him, pressing him down to the ground.
"F*ck, who is stepping on me?!"
The young man tried to lift this head in great fury, but the foot that was stepping down on his head was as firm as Mountain Tai. No matter how great a power the young man unleashed, the foot would not budge in the least.
"Who is that? Let go of me!"
Fang Xingjian snorted, then the young man realized that his body had been turned over.
"It's you!"
When the young man saw Fang Xingjian, he was slightly stunned. However, he realized at the next moment that this person was Fang Xingjian. The young man had previously seen Fang Xingjian's live stream.
Seeing that Fang Xingjian was stepping onto his face, a hint fear flashed across it.
The young man then looked at the surroundings. His ability for time acceleration seemed to still be effective.
"Why is it that you can catch me?"
Fang Xingjian did not reply. It was true that the young man's ability to accelerate time was amazing. However, Fang Xingjian had already reached the second tier of the Divine level. His reaction time and agility both surpassed that of ordinary people by hundreds of thousand of times. In Fang Xingjian's eyes, the world was like a slow motion scene to begin with.
"Your ability is too troublesome."
Fang Xingjian looked at this young man, and a stream of sword intent entered the young man's brain. Then Fang Xingjian's voice rang out in his mind.
It was true that the young man's ability was very troublesome. If this ability were to further develop, even Fang Xingjian would find it troublesome to deal with. Therefore, before the young man's ability improved further, Fang Xingjian sent a stream of sword intent into the young man.
However, this ability was also very interesting, and Fang Xingjian felt that it had a great research value.
Therefore, Fang Xingjian did not kill the young man and had only given him a verbal warning. This would prevent the young man from becoming too unruly, thinking that he was unstoppable and then getting into trouble for not controlling his powers properly. If that were to happen, the young man might end up doing some irreversible things.
Sensing the pain coming from his brain, the young man shouted, "What did you do to me?"
"I only left a stream of sword intent," Fang Xingjian replied indifferently, "So that I can kill you any time."
As Fang Xingjian said this, the young man felt an intense pain like being pricked by many needles, and he cried out agonizingly.
"Stop it, stop it!" The young man screamed for an entire minute, and he look at Fang Xingjian with a gaze filled with great horror.
"What on earth do you want?"
Fang Xingjian replied calmly, "Nothing. Shi Chen 2 , I want you to improve your abilities as much as you can without breaking the law."
"Just this?"
"Just this."
At the next moment, the Fang Xingjian had already disappeared from before the young man, as if what happened there earlier was just an illusion.
It was only then did the young man reacted, "How did he know my name?"
After searching through many areas, Fang Xingjian only found four humans who possessed ether particles. He did not find any hints to Miracle World.
Under the senses of the Sudden Inspiration, Fang Xingjian once again arrived next to the young man at the cyber cafe. He stood in the air, sensing the changes occurring to the young man.
Concurrently, through the use of image recognition databases in conjunction with the information from the Ministry of Public Service's and the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China's 3 systems, as well as some others, the young man's information poured into Fang Xingjian's mind like a waterfall.
Long Tiandi 4 , 18 years old. His parents had divorced when he had been at the age of three, and his father had remarried when he was four. Since then, his father had not paid him any heed, and he had grown up with his grandmother. Three years ago, his grandmother passed away, and he had dropped out from school and joined the triads.
Long Tiandi? To think that there's still someone with a name like this?' Fang Xingjian smiled and continued to scan this young man.
Right now, Long Tiandi seemed to be extremely focused and serious as he played ' lol 5 '. His emotions continued to fluctuate up and down as the battle in the game continued.
According to the records of the cyber cafe, Long Tiandi had been here for three days and three nights. Not only had he not showered, Fang Xingjian could also sense that Long Tiandi's stomach was completely empty... There were no food at all in his stomach.
As Fang Xingjian probed deeper, he could sense that with each victory Long Tiandi clinched on lol, a gush of power from the network would gather on Long Tiandi's body. They would replenish the nutrients in his body and even strengthen his physical body.
'This is...!' Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed. The power in the network was ether particles.
Fang Xingjian's countenance changed, and his will probed even deeper. Following the power of the ether particles, his will swept through the entire network.
After one day and one night passed by, Long Tiandi played lol for this entire duration, and his body's toughness had increased by over five times.
By now, his physical body had become that of some kind of superman, where both his strength, reaction, and agility were all comparable to a first transition Knight.
Fang Xingjian let out a long exhale.
He went through the entire network to track down on the source of those ether particles. In the end, he realized that the power came from the Fang Tian Corporation's building.
An astonishing fact was presented before him.
'The ether particles in this world were brought over by me...
'Then is this world a parallel world of Earth? Or Miracle World?
'Or could it be that Miracle World and Earth...'
Fang Xingjian's frown deepened, and he did not carry on thinking about this. On the other hand, he looked at Long Tiandi.
This world originally only had the ether particles which his martial will carried. Therefore, when his will swept through the network, this power had been unknowingly disseminated out.
It was just like how when long rivers flowed through the earth, there would always be water left behind.
In a world like Miracle World where ether particles were everywhere, this would not be a problem. However, on this Earth where there were no ether particles, this was a problem.
Right now, what stumped Fang Xingjian the most was... how could the ether particles he sent out reinforce and strengthen these five people?
Moreover, such reinforcements were different from Miracle World's cultivation methods. They seemed to have stimulated five types of abilities of five different people and then continued to evolve them.
'I still need to observe more and obtain more data.'
Fang Xingjian continued to think. If this world really became an existence that was similar to Miracle World, would he be able to sense his physical body that was in Miracle World?
