"The power of fighting spirit..."

A glint flashed in Fang Yuan’s eyes, but Lantil, who was currently engaged in combat, didn’t detect anything.

Within just a short spur of the moment, all the minute details of the fighting spirit power that he had cultivated, with much effort, was revealed in front of Fang Yuan.

"Sure enough, it’s another system that’s different from the cultivation that’s derived by absorbing vitality from the heavens and earth through a warrior circulating the heavenly cycles. The fighting spirit power originates from the body! In other words, it’s a type of life energy!"

Fang Yuan has already attained the title of Sage. At this moment, he was in a strategically advantageous position, and he could naturally take in all of Lantil’s shallow fighting spirit with a glance.

"Through the process of strengthening the human body and coordinating the muscles and internal secretions, they could stimulate it and produce this type of power... The stronger the body, the stronger the ’fighting seeds’ that would be produced?"

He inadvertently thought of his Sage body.

If he used that body as his blueprint to produce fighting seeds, then it would completely exceed the imagination of the highest level warrior.

Of course, even a modified "spiritual body" isn’t that different.

"It seems that assuming the duty of the Extraordinary profession ’warrior’ is easier..."

Fang Yuan’s foundations were built well. At that moment, upon seeing a warrior fighting with his life, as though he was teaching via a personal demonstration and verbal instructions, an explosive sound was suddenly released from his body. Just like breaking some sort of gate, an exotic seed appeared in the spot where his heart was.

Accompanying every pulse of his heartbeat, some sort of power endlessly coursed through his entire body.

"Fighting spirit is rooted in the body, but after becoming a fighting spirit seed, it can interact with external energies... According to this realm’s statement, this is an interaction between many elemental planes, and it brings about different attributes!"

He slightly closed his eyes, and his magical abilities probed outward. With the help of the fighting spirit seeds, it instantly burrowed deeply into many elemental domains.

There is Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water, the most fundamental blocks to construct the realm, and there’s also thunder and lightning which are inclined towards a thunderstorm, rare metal... and there’s even light and darkness.

"Lantil doesn’t seem to be powerful at all!"

The gaze Fang Yuan’s directed towards Lantil had inadvertently carried a little pity.

The other party’s phase, in his opinion, was only at the beginning stage where the fighting spirit seeds had just been created. Its strength was still not up to par with himself, not to mention the fact that interacting with the elements and forming fighting spirit attributes or the likes.

The world is this unfair.

Lantil had trained with so much effort, and the fruits of his labor, that were obtained after experiencing a close shave, were learned in a short pan of time by Fang Yuan, who had then innovated it into something new by getting rid of the antiquated aspects, allowing him to surpass the master.

At this precise moment, another transformation occurred with the battlefield’s scenario.

Swoosh!

While Lantil was personally blocking the giant wolf, Gohn brought his militia to distract it from the sides, and the archer finally grasped this opportunity and shot an arrow.

Poof!

This hope-filled arrow was fatal and directly pierced the giant wolf’s right eye.

"Great!"

The archer clenched his fist tightly and instantly saw the giant wolf howl as it faced the sky, its aggressive mouth was aiming straight towards the roof of the wooden house that he was crouching in.

Kaboom!

Amidst the shrill howls of the wolf, a burst of flames shot out, causing the archer to instantly be blown to pieces in a painful and gruesome death.

"Doron?!"

Lantil’s eyes were about to split, and the fighting spirit’s glow circulated around his right fist, causing his entire hand to look as if it was basking in sacred light. He suddenly jumped and landed a fist on the giant wolf’s head.

Ping!

The boxing gloves clashed with the wolf’s head and actually released a sound that was similar to the sound of clashing metal. The giant wolf’s body trembled as if it was in a state of dizziness, and it immediately pressed down with its claws without hesitation, throwing Lantil into the midst of the chaos.

"It’s over, the entire Pitch-dark Shield team was completely annihilated. Is it telling us that our small village will also face the misfortune of being annihilated?"

Seeing this scene, all of Gohn’s hopes were dashed to pieces.

The giant wolf, which was being controlled, charged forward with a goal in mind. Its aim was actually Fang Yuan’s position.

"Indeed... is this a test?"

Fang Yuan saw this, and a trace of a cold smile immediately lit up on his face.

After previously understanding the evils in this realm, he proactively tackled the problems himself, and he intentionally left behind some loopholes in order to see what kind of secrets he could unearth.

At this moment, after procuring some gains, he felt a slight happiness that was akin to a hunter seeing his prey captured in his trap.

"Is it spirit magic that’s controlling the giant wolf? Actually using it in front of me so casually..."

Fang Yuan’s thoughts coagulated, and he instantly traced a formless spiritual path and found the group of people hiding outside the village.

At this moment, the giant wolf howled and stepped out with its claw, smashing the wooden house he was residing in into pieces.

Swoosh!

Among the fragments of wood that flew across the sky, Fang Yuan stepped out with his right foot, and his entire body charged out like a cannon.

"Wind!"

A gentle layer of green fighting spirit instantly appeared outside his body, and it was as if he had donned a green cape that allowed him to move faster and more agilely.

Among the many elements, Fang Yuan directly chose the wind attribute.

After all, as one the powers that constitutes realm and one of the main elements—Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water—there definitely wouldn’t be any constraints to the future development of the wind attribute.

Not to mention, at this moment, he needed more speed and greater mobility.

"Die!"

With the assistance of the wind element, he felt that the speed at which he could attack with his sword was greatly increased. The long sword in his hands had an aquamarine glow that directly penetrated through the corner of the giant wolf’s injured eye, even his entire arm had pierced through.

Poof!

Amidst the splattering of blood, the giant wolf’s body collapsed onto the ground like a small mountain, and a large pile of dust sprayed upwards.

"Even a legendary living being will have an 80% chance of death if its brain is penetrated!"

Fang Yuan pulled out his metal sword, and with the movement of his silhouette, he viciously charged outside the village.

...

"What happened?"

Everyone from the secret agency was in a frenzied state while the old sorcerer nearly dropped and destroyed the crystal ball in his hands.

"This is... wind attribute fighting spirit? The opponent is a warrior? Why didn’t anyone mention this information before?" he shouted with his words laced with a great deal of unwillingness to accept this.

Fighting spirit was the power of this realm. It was, at most, a case where the opponent had this ability and kept a low profile beforehand while secretly taking on the profession of a warrior. There was no relation at all with the Descenders.

Surprisingly, throughout his entire professional career, he’s never met a Dream Master Sage, and he cannot even imagine such a genius who could learn the inner workings of fighting spirit with just a glance and was even able to innovate novel ideas by discarding the old ones.

The old sorcerer, as of this moment, was instead filled with despair from failing the quest.

The opponent was, after all, a warrior. 80% of the things that were said was just mere gibberish from those two idiots. This investigation, like many other previous incidents, was probably enacted on hearsay evidence.

An actual Descender conceals themself very well, and it’s extremely difficult to find something that fits the criteria perfectly.

Hence, out of the ten investigation cases that they previously performed, nine of them would be erroneous convictions. Everyone was already used to this.

"If this is the case, we’ll temporarily cancel this operation and lower the priority level of the opponent by one while maintaining surveillance..."

After the old subordinate had just stated the arrangement, a subordinate shouted out, "Your Excellency... he’s found us! He’s rushing over to us!"

"What the—Leave immediately!"

The color of his face changed.

In reality, they definitely weren’t afraid of the opponent’s military might, but they simply didn’t want to cause any trouble.

Otherwise, once they meet and fight him, hand to hand, they would have to completely eliminate this knight successor and all of the villagers. If any small traces of evidence is found, then it will definitely cause a great deal of trouble to the organization.

However, his order was given a little too late.

With the amplification from his wind attribute fighting spirit, Fang Yuan’s speed was faster than a sprinting horse, and he directly rushed to their hiding spot, as though he had foreseen it beforehand. "Who are you, to actually attack the village and injure a member of royalty?"

Without caring, he directly shouted out and directed the essence of this incident straight to the point. Regardless of which side the other party was on, they wouldn’t dare to put this incident out in the open.

"This really... makes us so helpless..."

The old sorcerer shook his head, and a gleam of bright light suddenly flashed in his eyes. "Capture him and exterminate all of the villagers!"

Although the consequences of doing this are very great, compared to disclosing the entire matter, causing them to become wanted criminals and implicating the organization, this was already the best option.

"Luhn? You can only blame yourself... We were originally intending to leave, but you still dared to rush over and even identify us..."

A few soldiers stared at him whilst their hands wielded weapons like falchions and sabres, and they formed a circle that surrounded him.

The old sorcerer took out a few items and mumbled some words, evidently he was employing a magical spell. Furthermore, at his side, a soldier that specializes in defending had taken out a crossbow!

"This type of power... doesn’t seem like manpower dispatched by the baron. Are they, ultimately, the reaper church? It’s impossible..."

Fang Yuan’s silhouette retreated as he hid into the dense forest and used the trees to conceal his figure.

At the same time, his mind was constantly thinking.

He only wanted to "reveal his face" when he rushed over and shouted earlier, and it wasn’t done recklessly. This forced them to have no choice but to exterminate the human population.

In that case, he cannot retreat and can only fight the guerrilla warfare himself.

In the dense forest, as long as the other party didn’t want to retreat, he himself had the confidence to destroy them all by using the terrain.

After more than half of the enemy’s forces were injured or killed, it would be too late for them to escape, even if they wanted to.

"Even though I’ve only just derived the fighting spirit technique, martial arts in this realm is actually very common!"

As long as the technique is employed from a human body, even though it’s different in its approach, it’s equally satisfactory in their results in each of the realms. At that moment, Fang Yuan casually twisted, and his entire body jumped onto a treetop. When a soldier ran over from behind while waving a saber, the tip of a blade appeared and immediately pierced into his throat.

Poof!

With a blood-red flash, the soldier fell down with his face full of disbelief.

"Damn it... this terrain really isn’t suitable for a siege!"

Very quickly, the sieging soldiers discovered that it was very difficult to capture this opponent. Dexterously, he hid amongst the shadows of the trees and used various forms of cover, and coupled with his own speed, he practically achieved an effect that was similar to a military’s assassination team.

Especially the long sword that was accentuated with fighting spirit—it could easily pry open their leather armor and take their lives!

"No! Something’s not right!"

The old sorcerer saw this scene, and his heart went cold first. His eyes immediately lit up. "We can still use secret training to explain his warrior origin, but this experience can only be accumulated from hundreds and thousands of battles, otherwise it cannot be obtained... This must be a ’Descender’!"

He pointed with his hand, and the magical skill that he had been preparing for a long time was finally completed. "Spiderweb—Restrain!"

A huge white web appeared and instantly spread towards Fang Yuan’s silhouette.
