Fang Yuan stood in the silent void, the remnants of the Lotus-ship swirling around him like frozen dust. His Rank 9 body radiated a faint, rhythmic pulse that pushed against the fabric of reality.
"System," he commanded, his voice vibrating through the vacuum via pure Qi transmission. "Scan the lower galactic sectors. Find a world with high biological density but primitive power systems. A world of martial arts."
[System Scan Initiated... Search Complete. Target identified: The Azure Sky Continent. A Rank 1 Martial World. Maximum power ceiling: Mortal Rank 9. Note: This world is currently in its 'Golden Age' of Martial Arts.]
"Golden Age?" Fang Yuan sneered. "It's a golden harvest."
He didn't need a ship. He raised his fist, channeling the absolute density of a Planet Pulverizer. With a single, concentrated strike, he punched the void. The space in front of him didn't just tear; it shattered like a mirror, revealing a swirling wormhole leading to the Azure Sky Continent.
Fang Yuan stepped into the rift.
The transition was violent. As he entered the atmosphere of the new world, his Rank 9 mass reacted with the local gravity like a falling star. The sky over the Azure Sky Continent, once a peaceful blue, was suddenly torn asunder by a streak of black fire.
In the "Cloud-Reach Sect," the greatest martial sanctuary of that world, the Grand Elders looked up in terror. Their "Heavenly Sealing Array," which had stood for ten thousand years, began to crack before the intruder even touched the ground.
BOOM!
Fang Yuan landed in the center of the Sect's main plaza. The shockwave didn't just level the buildings; it flattened the entire mountain range for a hundred miles. Thousands of martial artists were vaporized instantly, their Qi drifting into the air—only to be inhaled by Fang Yuan in a single breath.
He stood in the center of the crater, his dark robes unmarked, looking at the "Master" of the world who was trembling on his knees.
"This world is too loud," Fang Yuan said, his voice echoing like the judgment of a dark god. "From this day forth, your 'Martial Arts' serve only one purpose: to refine the energy I require for my next ascension."
