A jade manual recording a Yuhua Sect divine ability!
Fang Han's mind was thrilled. He hurriedly held it up with both hands and saw the words "Spring Breeze Wood Spirit Art" written on this jade manual. He could not help but freeze! Relying on his intuition, he knew that this divine ability was definitely not a ferocious divine ability like the "Purple Lightning Yin Thunder Blade," "Heavenly Cold Profound Darkness Qi," "Green Flame Seven Cultivations Ray," or "Great Unfettered Profound Golden Sword Qi." It seemed to be an auxiliary type of divine ability.
"This Spring Breeze Wood Spirit Art is a minor divine ability within our Yuhua Sect's Heavenly Wood Grand Magic. By absorbing the spiritual energy of vegetation and cultivating it into true energy, it can nurture all things. Whether used for healing, refining pills, strengthening the body, extending lifespan, or nourishing energy, it has unparalleled efficacy. Right now, our Yuhua Sect has numerous disciples, but there is a shortage of pills. After you cultivate this Spring Breeze Wood Spirit Art, you can use the true energy to refine pills. You will refine one hundred Wood Spirit Pills every month and hand them over to the sect's immortal storehouse for the use of the multitude of disciples. After one year, when you have cultivated the Wood Spirit true energy to pure proficiency, we will then impart the Heavenly Wood Grand Magic to you."
Seeing that Fang Han seemed somewhat unwilling, the Transmission Elder smiled slightly and explained, "This one year of time is also a test of your temperament. The sect nurtured you and imparted cultivation methods to you, so upon becoming a true disciple, you naturally have to do something for the sect. All true disciples are the same. This is also the difference between our immortal path sects and the demonic path sects. Within the demonic sects, those wielding high divine abilities exploit those with low divine abilities at will, whereas in our immortal path sects, those with high divine abilities must help those with low divine abilities. With greater ability comes greater responsibility."
"Go! At the back of this Spring Breeze Wood Spirit Art, the refinement method for the Wood Spirit Pill is recorded. Remember, refine one hundred Wood Spirit Pills every month and deliver them to the sect's immortal storehouse. If you violate this task, do not even think about learning any future divine abilities." The Heavenly Punishment Elder then said, "I am in charge of this sect's penal code, and I view true disciples with particular weight. I hope you will not violate the sect rules, otherwise, on the Heavenly Punishment Platform, it will be hard to escape punishment."
"Understood!"
Fang Han originally wanted to ask in his heart if he could exchange for another divine ability to learn the Instant Kill Grand Magic from the Great Unfettered Profound Golden Sword Qi. However, hearing the tone of these two great elders, he knew this was something they had planned long ago. Thus, holding the manual, he respectfully retreated outside.
Seeing Fang Han retreat outside, the Transmission Elder suddenly asked, "How was it?"
"That is the phrase I was just about to ask you," the Heavenly Punishment Elder retorted.
"He has cultivated the Yama Golden Body, which is a divine ability of the Yellow Springs Sect. I don't know if Fang Qingxue imparted it to him. It seems the rumor that the Yellow Springs Diagram has reappeared and fallen into Fang Qingxue's hands is very likely true." The Transmission Elder's snow-white eyebrows twitched up and down.
"This is also her fortuitous encounter. It seems she is destined to shine brilliantly at the Gathering of Immortals, just like Hua Tiandu. Back then, when Hua Tiandu obtained the legacy of Immortal Venerable Panwu, he immediately overwhelmed all heroes with his skills, bringing great glory to our Yuhua Sect," this "young boy" Heavenly Punishment Elder smiled.
"However, the Yellow Springs Sect still has many remnants hidden in this world, among which there is no lack of old demons several thousands of years old with profound cultivation. The Yellow Springs Diagram is the talisman edict of Yellow Springs Great Emperor. Whoever obtains this diagram can unite the Yellow Springs Sect and restore its prestige as the number one sect of the demonic path. If this spreads out, our Yuhua Sect will hereafter be plagued with troubles, and it is to be feared that Fang Qingxue's outside experiences will not find peace. Heavenly Punishment, this diagram is no trivial matter. You can perhaps have a talk with Fang Qingxue," the Transmission Elder said.
"Qingxue has an aloof and proud temperament, and many fortuitous encounters. Discussing her private matters would instead arouse her resentment, thereby pushing her heart toward the demonic path. Just in case she is drawn in by the Innate Demonic Sect, not only will our Yuhua Sect lose a talent, but we will also face the wild attacks of the Demonic Commander. Although the Demonic Commander is nothing much, killing him would draw out his father, Ying Xiantian, which would be quite difficult to handle. Moreover, right now Qingxue still harbors deep feelings for our Yuhua Sect, and the Headmaster Supreme has already spoken with her many times. Pay no attention to this matter." This "young boy" Heavenly Punishment Elder shook his head. "Which true disciple doesn't have a proud personality? When one's cultivation becomes high, they naturally refuse to be beneath others. As long as they do not do things that endanger our Yuhua Sect, there is no need to strictly control them. Otherwise, generating a rebellious psychology would make things worse. Disciples in the Divine Ability Realm are not children; we do not need to worry over their every matter."
"What you say makes sense, Heavenly Punishment. But this Fang Han, having advanced to the Divine Ability Realm and possessing a life-and-death pact with Hua Tiandu, must have his temper honed a bit. In any case, over a ten-year span, it is impossible for him to defeat Hua Tiandu. Hua Tiandu is now making rapid advances every day. Ten years later, I'm afraid he will step into the Longevity Realm. Even I cannot defeat him, let alone Fang Han. When the time comes, you stepping forward to resolve it will be enough," the Transmission Elder said.
"Naturally." The Heavenly Punishment Elder sat down.
…
Exiting the Yuhua Heavenly Palace, Fang Han suddenly felt the skin on his body twitch. It was actually Yan awaking from the Great Annihilation Technique. "These two great elders are truly formidable. I almost couldn't stay concealed from them. Especially that Heavenly Punishment Elder, unfathomably deep…"
"Yan, this Spring Breeze Wood Spirit Art divine ability doesn't seem powerful at all. Do you think I should learn it?" Fang Han gave this jade manual to Yan to view.
"Hmph! This Spring Breeze Wood Spirit Art is merely a minor divine ability within the Yuhua Sect's Eight Great Divine Abilities, the Heavenly Wood Grand Magic. Absorbing the essence of vegetation to cultivate into true energy doesn't have much power against enemies; it is most suited for refining pills and healing. It seems the Yuhua Sect wants you to act as a laborer for a year first. Every breath of time is exceptionally important to defeat Hua Tiandu. How could you waste a year on this?"
Yan chuckled coldly.
"Then what should be done?"
"Practice it first and see."
"Why? Didn't you say not to waste time?" Fang Han asked strangely.
"This Spring Breeze Wood Spirit Art is a wood-natured grand magic. After you condense the true energy, you can cultivate the Heavenly Wood Grand Magic! The Yuhua Sect's Heavenly Wood Grand Magic is also a masterpiece, not beneath Fang Qingxue's Purple Lightning Yin Thunder Blade."
"Then how do I cultivate the Heavenly Wood Grand Magic? I only get it after a year."
"I know it."
"What?"
"I know the Heavenly Wood Grand Magic. Although I haven't cultivated it, I understand the cultivation method of the Heavenly Wood Grand Magic." Yan's voice suddenly became drifting and erratic. "Furthermore, I also know that the Heavenly Wood Grand Magic originates from the ancient Green Emperor Wood Sovereign Art. The Yuhua Sect's wood magic is only a part of the Green Emperor Wood Sovereign Art, whereas I know the complete Green Emperor Wood Sovereign Art."
"Green Emperor Wood Sovereign Art!"
Fang Han felt great joy in his heart. "If that's the case, what am I still afraid of?"
"Indeed, there is nothing to fear. Originally, I was unwilling to teach you divine abilities out of fear of being discovered by the Yuhua Sect. Now that the Yuhua Sect has imparted the Spring Breeze Wood Spirit Art to you, you will start cultivating the Green Emperor Wood Sovereign Art! In any case, the true energy is of the same origin. When you use it in the future, others will not suspect a thing." Yan seemed to have finally waited for today. "That Dong Lingxiao cultivates the Heavenly Wood Grand Magic, but after you cultivate the Green Emperor Wood Sovereign Art, the quality of your true energy and magic power will steadily suppress his."
"Let's go, we are going to Jialan Peak! Presuming Senior Sister Jialan also has some benefits to give me…" Fang Han's heart burst with joy.
"Then let me eat the Golden Light Blazing Fire Mirror first…"
