1107 Brainwashed

The Red Bolt Emperor, a middle-aged man with a fierce face and dark-red spiky hair, changed his surroundings, turning them into a domain full of his red bolt: a combination of Lightning and Disassembling Dao.

Ji Lanfang found himself in a strange space. An unknown force constantly tried dismantling him into his fundamental parts - atoms. His soul resisted the urge to return to the natural energy between Heaven and Earth.

He swung his sword to cut off the void, but that force dismantled his speed into countless slower slashes, thus achieving the feat of decreasing his speed.

Swish!

A bolt of red lightning rushed toward Ji Lanfang, and he countered it with a fast sword slash. However, he missed since he was not fast enough, and his body had to move independently to evade. This technique divided his speed, which could be considered one of his counters.

Red Bolt fired ore lightning bolts rushed toward him when he saw the first test was successful. However, Ji Lanfang raised his speed, barely managing to block these attacks. The Void Mirror Emperor, observing from the side, raised his hand to fire a blue light into his partner's body.

Red Bolt's aura suddenly increased along with his power. The dismantling aspect of his Dao became more efficient, further dividing Ji Lanfang's speed, and his lightning bolts' speed drastically increased.

[Sword Stacking Skill]

Hundreds of afterimages appeared behind Ji Lanfand, each swinging their swords before fusing with his body. Then, with one slash, he cut off thousands of lightning bolts. By stocking countless sword slashes, his speed reaches another level.

After realizing this change, the Red Bolt Emperor's face changed, so he went all out. In his domain, every subatomic particle was a red bolt traveling at speed countless times faster than light. However, Ji Lanfang remained standing without any change; he moved so fast to deal with these bolts that it appeared he had not moved.

The Void Mirror Emperor raised his hand to send another blue light into his body, further boosting his stats, but it was useless. Ji Lanfang took one step to appear before his opponent and slash his sword. A mirror blocked his attack, even trying to rebound it.

However, his method of stacking attacks allowed him to slash through it. Red Bolt took this opportunity to summon pure white armor. Clink! Ji Lanfang's sword hit his opponent with no result.

"An entire armor composed of Infinitum?" asked Ji Lanfang, not hiding his surprise. "The Commerce Hub is truly rich beyond comparison." Infinitum is considered the hardest Tier 10 metal, even having the indestructible label in its tier. This kind of resource is considered rare even in the upper dimension, yet these people had enough to make an entire suit of armor.

"We've been preparing for this war for a long time, and we'll do anything to eliminate all of you who dare to resist our power," Red Bolt sneered.

"A staunch loyalist, huh?" said Ji Lanfang calmly. "Why didn't you have such vigor when Wang Wei was here?"

"Does that even matter? He's gone, and we're the final winner. We can even write history as we see fit," Red Bolt countered. Ji Lanfang shook his head.

The Red Bolt Emperor saw a white flash of light, and before he could even form a thought, he saw his body as his detached head floated in the void. "How is that possible?"

"My friend's Dao is all about cutting, so I learned a few things from him," Ji Lanfang explained before turning to the Mirror Void Emperor. "You've been concocting a plan for a while now; what is it?"

"You'll soon find out."

A mirror appeared before the Void Mirror Emperor, and a clone walked out from the mirror, looking exactly like the original. Then, a blue light flashed around both of their bodies.

'I was right. The Commerce Hub gave him a unique Qi with the power to boost stats and abilities,' Ji Lanfang thought before going on the offensive. His sword moved as if the concepts of matter, energy, gravity, friction, space, and time had no restraint on it. Usually, this is where the enemy is either slayed or they found a way to block, and this time, it was the latter with a twist.

As Ji Lanfang's sword reached one of the clones, his sword began to slow down until it was moving slower than a turtle.

'Time Deceleration? No, this is something different,' he thought, his mind working on overdrive. 'His Dao is a combination of Space and Mirror...mirror...inversion...she inverted my speed, turning into slowness.'

While one Void Mirror Emperor temporarily restricted Ji Lanfang, the other rushed to attack. It had two spikes in his hand that were made from shards or of a collapse dimension, resembling weapons composed of mirrors.

Clink!

As the second mirror emperor attacked, a sword emerged from Ji Lanfang's flesh. He blocked the space-shard weapon, baffling the Void Mirror Emperor. So, he tried again, releasing a barrage of stabs and strikes, but Ji Lanfang's body had grown hundreds of spikes, all made of swords.

Bang!

Ji Lanfang broke through the technique restriction using a subtle Yin-Yang Technique that involved using the yang energy from his fleshly body and the yin energy from his soul.

"That was a flesh divine ability. I thought swordsmen disdained to cultivate the flesh," asked the Void Mirror Emperor, not hiding the mockery in his tone.

"Time has changed, and you need to keep up," replied Ji Lanfang, deciding to be more serious. He used the [Ten Thousand Sword Body Technique], a body refining technique that allowed him to temper his body by absorbing or fusing with swords. He created this technique to temper his body and used the sword wills remaining in famous swords to temper his swordsmanship.

Ji Lanfang tightened his grip on his sword, gathering the terrifying force from his flesh. He perfectly combined all his body's strength or force with his skill and Sword Dao, elevating his strength to a higher level-peak 5-old, to be exact.

This strike could not be described in words. Did it ignore the concepts of space, time, matter, energy, and other concepts? No, it did not just do that. Instead, it used these concepts to further boost the attack's speed, entering a realm that cannot be easily described in words.

The truly scary thing is that this was not even Ji Lanfang's limit; he could swing his sword even faster.
