A full day passed. By nighttime, the moon of the Heavenly Realm rose, icy and clear, and all things were quiet.
Fang Han still sat cross-legged in the space above Ancient Mang City. The Kingdom of Gods expanded outwards, enveloping endless mountain ranges, plains, and lakes within it. Almost the entire 360 billion miles of Mang Mountain fell under the control of the Kingdom of Gods.
In the mortal world, with Fang Han's current cultivation, he could enshroud tens of thousands of star domains, thousands of great worlds, and he could even barely refine a great world. In the Heavenly Realm, he naturally could not accomplish this, but enshrouding a billion-mile mountain range was still possible.
"Senior, right now in all of Mang Mountain, from top to bottom, a total of two thousand eight hundred sects are all willing to submit to Senior. They are also willing to merge all their spirit veins and enter under Senior's command." Chen Yan stepped forward, reporting to Fang Han, while bringing out a gourd.
"These are the Origin Pills they offer to Senior, totally one hundred million pills."
As she spoke, Chen Yan's hands trembled slightly. She had never held such a huge number of pills as one hundred million Origin Pills. These were massive fortunes among massive fortunes.
"Good, these sects are offering tribute, I will accept it. It will be useful when I roam the Heavenly Realm in the future."
Fang Han had obtained six hundred million Origin Pills from Shang Ziluo's body, but he would not let this one hundred million slip by, naturally collecting it. When he executed thirty-three times combat power, he needed a sheer volume of Origin Qi, and relying solely on his own breathing was nowhere near enough to cover the consumption.
"Daoist Xuanzhen, Chen Yan, I will now impart to you some peerless divine abilities. Cultivate them well. Help me manage the cultivators of these sects and nurture their strength." As he spoke, Fang Han pointed a finger and sent countless cultivation imprints into the bodies of the two, even including the Great Puppet Technique.
Those cultivation imprints and experiences mostly belonged to Shang Ziluo.
Shang Ziluo was a Half-Step Golden Immortal almighty, a peerless genius. Although killed by Fang Han, some of his cultivation experiences and comprehensions of the Grand Dao were highly suitable for Daoist Xuanzhen.
Now, Daoist Xuanzhen was about to comprehend the Great Luo laws. Having integrated the resources of the Mang Mountain Alliance, he became the person with the most authority. It would not be long before he would also cultivate into a Half-Step Golden Immortal almighty. When he truly held the power of Mang Mountain, even those sent by the Heavenly Court would have reservations.
The Heavenly Court would never dispatch a Golden Immortal to a small place like Mang Mountain.
"Alright, Daoist Xuanzhen, I hope you comprehend as soon as possible, reaching the realm of a Half-Step Golden Immortal almighty. From now on, I will leave Mang Mountain. However, I will know everything about Mang Mountain at any time. You must manage diligently and not slack off." After imparting the divine abilities, Fang Han stood up.
"Fellow Daoist, wait!"
Daoist Xuanzhen hastily said: "That Shang Ziluo is dead. After all, he was a person of the Heavenly Court. Just in case the Heavenly Court really investigates, it will be hard for us to resist."
"No matter. The Heavenly Court is currently at war with the God Race. For a short time, they will not pursue this. Moreover, in the entirety of Quanzhou, Shang Ziluo is not the only inspector. There are a few others, fighting overtly and covertly, all wanting to secretly kill each other. I naturally have a scheme to divert the flood of disaster." Fang Han waved his hand. Having refined Shang Ziluo, he had already obtained his massive memories, and knew things about all of Quanzhou, as well as the Heavenly Court, the Ascendant School, and the One Dao Sect.
Shang Ziluo was an outstanding disciple of the Ascendant School in the Heavenly Realm, knowing an extensive amount of things. Fang Han would have to digest those massive memories properly for a while.
However, regarding the several Heavenly Court inspectors in Quanzhou, he knew clearly.
This Mang Mountain was too small, unsuited for development. Establishing a tiny faction and preserving a spark was enough. Fang Han was a great dragon, he could not be trapped here.
"Yes, Senior. I will definitely organize these sects well." Chen Yan was full of confidence. Her current strength was close to advancing to a Divine Immortal, and within her immortal artifact, the Mang Ancient Pagoda, there was a Mystic Immortal slave, "Tuoba Ye". This was enough to control the situation.
"Good. Later, I will come back again. I will see how your capabilities are. If you are worthy of being heavily entrusted, I will definitely lead you to step into higher realms."
As he spoke, Fang Han flickered a few times. The Kingdom of Gods vanished, and his person had also escaped into the void, disappearing without a trace.
"With this person appearing, the Heavenly Realm is definitely going to experience major upheavals." Daoist Xuanzhen looked at the place where Fang Han disappeared, shook his head, and sighed.
"This is an opportunity for us. If it weren't for Senior, we would just fight for our lives cultivating, eventually die of old age, being oppressed by others, living a cowardly and useless life. But now, holding great power, our lives are splendid, and there is hope." Chen Yan said: "Even if I die immediately tomorrow, it is still worth it."
"Indeed. We have hope now. Unlike before, when there was no hope at all. With enough spirit veins and Origin Pills, we can rapidly increase our cultivation."
The old Daoist Xuanzhen's confidence also burned: "As long as I cultivate to a Half-Step Golden Immortal almighty, the Heavenly Court will have to be wary and can only try to recruit me."
At this moment, Fang Han had completely left Mang Mountain.
His current goal was to go to the Central Province, to the Ascendant School, and figure out a way to sneak in. At the same time, to inquire about news of Yan Shui Tian.
Yan Shui Tian was sent into the Heavenly Realm by the Eternal Divine Furnace. He did not know how she was doing. Back then, she was only at the fifth stage of Longevity, the Creation Realm. Entering the Heavenly Realm, she would be worse than a slave. The lowliest little ant.
However, the various provinces of the Heavenly Realm were vast and boundless. Every province was millions and billions of times larger than Mang Mountain. Even with Fang Han's ability to cross the void, it was easy to lose the route. He had to proceed step by step.
"I will first go to Quanzhou. In the large cities of Quanzhou, there are ancient teleportation arrays that can teleport to other distant great provinces. In the Heavenly Realm, to tear apart space and undertake long-distance crossings, my cultivation is still hard-pressed to accomplish it."
Fang Han was familiar with the spacetime laws of the Heavenly Realm. Super-strong long-distance crossings were incredibly dangerous, containing many temporal secret caves and fogs that could cause one to sink in and be lost for eternity.
Only Golden Immortals possessed the possibility of long-distance crossings. Stripping down to a thorough comprehension of Great Luo laws and realizing the true meaning of eternal immortality, only then could one avoid remaining lost in the spacetime of the Heavenly Realm.
The rest could only rely on the ancient teleportation arrays to travel back and forth.
Those ancient teleportation arrays were forged by the ancient Heavenly Court. In order to control each major province. But now, with the Heavenly Court's influence weakened, various powerful warlords had risen, controlling these ancient teleportation arrays.
The ancient teleportation array in Quanzhou was controlled by the Heavenly Spring Sect. Even the largest spirit vein, the legendary ancient spring of life, was occupied by this sect. Inside this sect, true Golden Immortal experts stood guard; it was old, mysterious, and powerful without match.
As Fang Han flew on, shuttling and comprehending the scenery of the Heavenly Realm, he silently condensed his cultivation. His harvest from Mang Mountain this time was massive. Not only did he collect a spirit vein, but he also killed Shang Ziluo, plundering many Great Luo laws.
This made his path to advancing to Golden Immortal much broader.
However, advancing to Golden Immortal was not an easy matter. Even if one had sufficient comprehension, at the instant of advancement, one required an inexhaustible amount of Origin Qi. Right now, although he possessed seven or eight hundred million Origin Pills, it was far from enough to advance. It could not even be considered a drop in the ocean.
A Golden Immortal in the Heavenly Realm was a domineering giant reigning over a vast territory. Calling them unparalleled overlords would not be an exaggeration.
Don't look at Fang Han having reached the Half-Step Golden Immortal almighty stage and being able to unleash thirty-three times combat power. But upon encountering a true Golden Immortal, he would be absolutely no match at all.
According to Shang Ziluo's memories, to promote to Golden Immortal, aside from accumulating the Great Luo laws in one's body to the peak, one also had to prepare mountains and seas of Origin Pills. It was calculated in the millions of billions at the very least, perhaps even more.
Furthermore, there were risks. If the attempt failed, it was easy to die. Just like that Half-Step Golden Immortal almighty of the Iron Blood Sect, experiencing qi deviation leaving only a corpse.
"No wonder that senior of the Iron Blood Sect suffered cultivation deviation. Where in the mortal realm is there that much Origin Qi? If I want to advance to Golden Immortal, I still must condense far more Origin Pills. That spirit vein of the Mang Ancient Mountain, even if refined to ultimate purity, is still only around the quantity of ten billion. Far from enough."
Fang Han was someone who had seen grand scenes. Although Origin Pills were precious, he didn't care either. Yet the pills required to advance to Golden Immortal were simply too many. He couldn't possibly gather them all for a while; he could only accumulate them slowly and await an opportunity.
In any case, his enemies in the Heavenly Realm were exceptionally numerous. When the time came, whoever provoked him would be plundered completely bare.
Countless sacred arts within his body were condensed one by one, all tainted with the Great Luo laws. Between his flying and resting, Fang Han calmed his spirit and focused his energy, his entire body settling into a state of comprehending the Dao. The Mang Mountain spirit vein stored in the Eight-部 Floating Pagoda continuously transformed and refined, turning into Origin Qi.
Currently, he did not rear any beings, since the pills were insufficient.
Originally, he wanted to capture all those Mystic Immortals of Mang Mountain into the pagoda, but after some thought, taking them in was useless. Unless they were refined into immortal artifacts and devoured directly, otherwise it would be better to let them fend for themselves.
"Golden Immortal. I must break through to the Golden Immortal realm! Once this realm is broken through, that is the beginning of truly traversing across the Heavenly Realm." Fang Han's inner thoughts surged.
Endless scenery of the Heavenly Realm flashed by like a white colt crossing a crack, disappearing in the blink of an eye. He occasionally bounded through the void, and occasionally shuttled through the clouds, passing over countless mountain ranges and massive cities.
In his eyes, the essence qi within those mountains and cities was vividly clear, and the underground spirit veins were also entirely within his perception.
Some places with vigorous spirit veins harbored cultivation sects, or even cities, and also ancient nations. Within those nations, surprisingly, there were ordinary common folk of the "mortal world".
Naturally, the cultivation of these ordinary common folk was also that of figures in the Longevity Secret Realm.
In the mortal world, those experts of the Longevity Secret Realm reputed as Eternal Giants, were nothing more than ordinary people or slaves in the Heavenly Realm. The Heavenly Realm was the Heavenly Realm, teeming with pure Yang qi everywhere, nurturing all directions.
"It is a pity that among countless spirit vein sects, I did not see any behemoth-class sects, nor did I sense the aura of a Golden Immortal overlord." Fang Han flew for a full three days and three nights. According to his route, he was almost nearing the center of Quanzhou.
Just as doubt arose in his mind, suddenly ahead, countless lights and shadows, auspicious auras, and rosy clouds rose directly from the ground into the sky. The auras of countless experts forcefully shot into the air, just as if a mortal had arrived in the Western Paradise of the Buddha Realm.
A gigantic ancient city appeared upon the plains.
Countless cultivators went back and forth, descending into the ancient city.
Fang Han instantaneously caught sight of several Half-Step Golden Immortal almighties.
"Is this the Ancient City of Quanzhou?"
