Why did he not return to Earth? This was the question that everyone wanted to know.
After hearing Edward's question, the silver-haired young man lowered his head, looked at the ice plain under his feet, and said indifferently, "Ten years ago, I regained my thoughts. On this uninhabited planet, in this ice-cold ocean of hydrogen and helium, I quietly accumulated my powers, slowly wearing down Howl's life."
Howl was the Cyan Army's Commander—an expert who had been sealed in ice together with Silver.
"Seven years ago, I finally managed to completely wipe out Howl's will and physical body completely, causing him to completely disappear from the surface of this world," the silver-haired young man continued. "However, my emotions have also been pent up to a limit due to being sealed in ice for a prolonged period of time.
"They are like a volcano. If I recover my emotions directly, the prolonged period of being emotionless will cause me to become violent, easily infuriated, and capricious when I suddenly obtain the emotions.
"I might end up destroying the entire world as a result of this.
"Therefore, in the time that followed, I slowly tried to recover my emotions, wiping out the portion that was uncontrollable. However, this was a lot more difficult that I imagined," the silver-haired young man said, shaking his head. "It was then that I realized even though I could flatten the entire world with a wave of my hand, I was still unable to easily wipe out a thought that was in my mind.
"Therefore, I attempted to control my violent emotions, carefully trimming them and preventing them from causing damage to Earth. The method I used... was to ponder.
"I kept pondering on Earth's circulation and the essence of life.
"Five years ago, I started to be able to see the waves in space, the pressing pressure, and the creases in the world...
"Three years ago, I was able to see some images of the future. I saw the world's origin and also seemed to see my own downfall...
"One year ago, I sensed evils from the distant space-time and attempted to prevent them from coming to this universe...
"I've done all this up until now, and you guys have returned to Saturn," the silver-haired young man said. Then he looked at Edward and asked with a calm tone, "What happened? I sense a great impending change will be taking place on Earth."
"Ulpian..." Edward called out his name softly. Right now, in Edward's eyes, there was a deep and unfathomable terror directed toward Ulpian.
The feeling that Ulpian gave him did not seem to be that of a human but more like that of a black hole, engulfing all of the thoughts, waves, and light rays that attempted to probe into Ulpian.
Hui He said, "We've been attacked..."
He shared all the things about Fang Xingjian and then added, "Fang Xingjian is far too strong and has no principles at all. He recklessly massacres on Earth, threatening the entire planet's stability. Ulpian, we need your help."
Ulpian did not say a word. He merely raised his hand, looked at the silver longsword in his hand, and looked deep into it with a will that was astronomical in size like the Milky Way in the sky.
At the sight of this, the countenance of the Green Army's Ming Wang changed drastically. He had no idea when Ulpian had taken the Thunder Calamity Sword that he had been holding.
The other people exchanged a glance that seemed to be filled with some hints of regret.
'Just what kind of creature are we seeking assistance from?'
Ulpian's will instantly drew out from the Thunder Calamity, and the silver longsword was unknowingly being held in Ming Wang's hand again. Ming Wang's countenance became extremely grim.
"This sword was probably forged by him," Ulpian said calmly. "It's true that he is stronger than all of you. I'll probably need 96 seconds to kill him.
"Let's go. It's true that we can't let him destroy Earth. We also need to reestablish the order in the world."
As Ulpian spoke, he waved his hand, and everyone appeared several hundred kilometers away with a flash.

Edward's countenance changed. "Anti-curvature superluminal speed?"
He raised his head and watched as the surrounding starlight became many long lines, and the astonishment on his face grew.
'He's already able to distort space to move at superluminal speed?' Edward looked at Ulpian, and his heart grew increasingly heavier. 'How much has he grown? Was it the right decision to seek Ulpian's assistance this time around?
'But he didn't kill the King of Trepidation at the first moment after all. Does this mean that his sense of justice is no longer as prejudiced as it was over ten years ago?'
Just then, Edward's gaze—which was scanning the surroundings—suddenly narrowed.
'Wait a minute. Why are there only seven people left? Where's the King of Trepidation?'
Edward felt as if all of his hairs on his body were standing up. However, no matter how much he looked around, the King of Trepidation was nowhere to be seen. The King of Trepidation had disappeared unknowingly. Other than Edward, the other Commanders did not seem to have noticed this.
Just as he was feeling astonished over this strange change, he looked at Ulpian, wanting to ask something.
However, just as he turned his gaze toward Ulpian, he noticed that Ulpian was already looking at him. A creepy smile had crept up onto Ulpian's face.
For some reason, Edward felt that Ulpian's face was too pale like he was a dead person.
...
On Earth, Fang Xingjian suddenly felt a series of throbs from his heart. He raised his head, and light burst out from his eyes. The light seemed to pierce through layers of void space as his eyes gazed toward Saturn.
Fang Xingjian stood up slowly. The entire Sacred White Crevice started to tremble like some kind of power was trying to pull apart the entire space.
After entering confinement for his cultivation for half a year, Fang Xingjian's strength had become increasingly terrifying.
A total of the 2,333 pages from the Book of Wisdom had been completely deciphered. Fang Xingjian's understanding of the entire world seemed to have gone up another level. His Instant Sword was just one step away to reaching a qualitative breakthrough.
Through the experiments he had conducted on the various armies' warriors, his Heart Sword Path had also improved tremendously. Even the Immortality Saint's emotions would be slightly affected when he was next to Fang Xingjian.
"Did you sense it?" With his body floating next to Fang Xingjian, the Immortality Saint said, "What a strong malice."
"Mmm," Fang Xingjian said, "I need to enter seclusion for a period of time and devote all my efforts into comprehending the final trial."
The Immortality Saint fell silent for a moment before saying, "Although Saturn is over a billion kilometers away, we can't eliminate the possibility this person can travel at superluminal speed with his strength. He may even have the means to move at a speed beyond superluminal speed. He may already have arrived on Earth while you're still in seclusion."
His gaze sank as he said, "If you want to enter seclusion, you must find a place where he can't find you."
Fang Xingjian nodded. He was not worried that the other party would arrive on Earth while he was still in seclusion. After all, he did not have trusted followers on Earth.
The only thing he needed to worry about was that he must not let the other party locate him while he was still in seclusion.
However, the Immortality Saint said, "Are you sure on your decision to enter into seclusion? How confident are you in attaining a breakthrough?" He still felt that it was too risky to enter seclusion at this timing.
Fang Xingjian looked at his palm and sensed streams of sword intents seething in his body. It seemed that his cultivation for the past half a year had suppressed them to an extreme.
"A little.
"It'll just take a little bit for me to attain another breakthrough in my sword arts."
