Fang Han's achievement of a peerless Golden Immortal this time was no small matter.
He had completely refined all the Battle World Divine Pills, all the spirit veins, and even the essence energy and laws left behind by Ao Shizun. Melted in a single furnace, the thick Golden Immortal law chains on the Eight Divisions Pagoda echoed with him, equivalent to being a part of his body's divine realm crystals.
At this moment, not only had he obtained all of Ao Shizun's cultivation, but he had also refined all the potential of the creation artifact fragments.
Now his body had completely transformed into a divine realm of creation crystals. Every divine realm crystal was closely connected. With a slight breath, these divine realm crystals absorbed billowing power of creation from the void. A punch thrown out could snap the heavenly tracks and create heavenly scars.
The Thirty-Three Heavens supreme treasures also rose like a tide.
The overlapping symbols on them were exceptionally solid. Each magic treasure manifested even more powerful and miraculous effects.
Crack, crack…
Fang Han clenched his fist. Within his body, all the divine realm crystals rubbed against each other, transmitting power. He felt that peerless Golden Immortals like the Heaven Spring Sect Master, the Evil Venerable, the Absolute Execution Venerable… could be killed with a single move.
In this instant, his strength had elevated by more than a hundredfold!
The difference in realm between a Half-Step Golden Immortal and a true Golden Immortal was too vast. Reaching heaven in a single bound was not enough to describe it.
Moreover, Fang Han had forcefully "devoured" a peerless Dragon Clan Golden Immortal, plundering all of his laws, divine abilities, cultivation, and even the Ancestor's profound mysteries he had comprehended.
If it weren't for Ao Shizun's help, it would be absolutely impossible for Fang Han to be this powerful now.
His current body contained fully nearly thirty thousand Golden Immortal laws. And on the Eight Divisions Pagoda, there were seventy thousand thick Golden Immortal law chains intertwined.
The Golden Immortal laws throughout his entire body had completely exceeded one hundred thousand.
This was a terrifying power.
What was even more terrifying was that Golden Immortal laws had not yet intertwined on the Thirty-Three Heavens supreme treasures, which meant Fang Han still had the potential for promotion.
In the future, as he cultivated, he would continuously derive Golden Immortal laws to forge the Thirty-Three Heavens supreme treasures until this supreme treasure entirely transformed into a mid-grade immortal artifact.
However, while the Eight Divisions Pagoda required seventy thousand thick chain-like Golden Immortal laws to completely transform, the Thirty-Three Heavens supreme treasures would need at least ten times more, or even more, to change.
Fang Han roughly estimated it might take a million, or even millions, and that was not even certain.
An ordinary Golden Immortal, like the Heaven Spring Sect Master, after cultivating profoundly for at least a million Heaven Realm years, would only accumulate a little over ten thousand Golden Immortal laws in his body.
In other words, to promote the Thirty-Three Heavens supreme treasures to mid-grade immortal artifacts, he would have to kill at least a hundred Heaven Spring Sect Masters, or even hundreds of them, to use as blood sacrifices.
This was simply shocking to the world and terrifying to the core.
"Fang Han, you have now promoted to a peerless Golden Immortal, so tyrannical! Executing the thirty-three times combat power, wouldn't that be equivalent to thirty-three peerless Golden Immortals striking simultaneously? No matter who it is, they would be killed."
Yan could not hold back and finally started speaking.
"That's right, executing my thirty-three times combat power, I am now almost invincible among Golden Immortals! Of course, this Heaven Realm is vast, with countless monster-level experts. Among them, the Golden Immortal figures are also extremely abnormal. It's not impossible that someone could contend against me. For example, among the many seeded disciples of the Ascension Sect, there are a large number of abnormal existences. Moreover, the Primordial Energy consumed by the thirty-three times combat power is truly too terrifying. When I was a Half-Step Golden Immortal mighty figure, the vital energy consumed was merely one-tenth of a third-tier spirit vein. But now that my combat power has elevated by over a hundredfold, the consumption is a hundredfold times thirty-three, over three thousand times more! I calculated that to execute the thirty-three times combat power now, every single execution will consume a second-tier spirit vein. Which is the quantity of a hundred billion Primordial Pills."
Fang Han shook his head: "Right now on my body, I don't have a single spirit vein left, I'm completely cleaned out."
"Every single battle will consume one second-tier spirit vein!"
Yan was dumbfounded: "Then Fang Han, you must not die of poverty in the future! By the way, with your combat power elevated by so many times now, can the Thirty-Three Heavens supreme treasures withstand it?"
"Of course they can withstand it. There is no need to worry about this. After refining those creation artifact fragments, the quality of the Thirty-Three Heavens supreme treasures is already at the peak of mid-grade immortal artifacts. Unfortunately, it just lacks Golden Immortal laws. But later on, by killing a few more Golden Immortals who oppose me and refining them all, this magic treasure will also be able to promote."
Fang Han was full of confidence. Having promoted to a peerless Golden Immortal, he felt true power.
"Right, do you plan to hide your aura, or swagger into the Ascension Sect and say you have promoted to a peerless Golden Immortal?" Yan suddenly asked. "I think since you've promoted to a Golden Immortal, you might as well just not return to the Ascension Sect and be free and unfettered in the Heaven Realm."
"That won't do. For the next step, I still need to comprehend profundities and promote to the Dao of the Ancestral Immortal to be a true major figure. A Golden Immortal in the Heaven Realm is a feudal lord, an overlord, but an Ancestral Immortal is a true legend." Fang Han shook his head. "In the Ascension Sect, I can obtain more resources, even King-tier spirit veins and Saint-tier spirit veins. Future matters will become increasingly complex. There will be a massive upheaval in the Heaven Realm. The strength of a Golden Immortal alone is far from enough. But when I return to the Ascension Sect, I will still hide my strength and watch how things develop. If I rashly go back claiming to have promoted to Golden Immortal and cause a sensation, it will be very detrimental to concealing my identity."
"Your plans have always been flawless. The strength of a Golden Immortal can basically run amok in the Heaven Realm, but to handle future situations, it is still far from enough. Even a Heavenly Monarch is not enough! The Yellow Springs Great Emperor received the empowered transmission of cultivation from the Reincarnation Daoist, and yet he still died and his Dao perished." Yan nodded and said, "I have now completely lost my combat power. Although my current cultivation is comparable to a Profound Immortal, I also yearn to promote to the paramount realm in one fell swoop."
"No matter, sooner or later, there will be a day when I make you truly formidable."
With a wave of Fang Han's hand, a massive conch appeared before him. It was precisely the mid-grade immortal artifact, the supreme Buddhist treasure containing the most profoundly mysterious Buddhist sound, the "Heaven and Earth Conch".
This "Heaven and Earth Conch" was invaluable. A high-grade immortal artifact could only be refined by an Ancestral Immortal; an ordinary Golden Immortal generally could not unleash its power.
The strands of Golden Immortal laws on it contained the profound mysteries of an Ancestral Immortal.
Fang Han slightly inputted a bit of magic power into it. Woo woo woo, woo woo woo, the solemn and sacred Buddhist sound reverberated. Its power could awe all demons and lock down space. Even Golden Immortals could not tear it apart.
"This Heaven and Earth Conch is highly valuable. Its power is even greater, but to me, it has no real use. The power of the Thirty-Three Heavens Creation Divine Fist, the thirty-three times combat power, is much greater than the conch. I'll find an opportunity to sell it for a good price to the Grand Aura Tower and earn more spirit veins…"
Fang Han now knew that magic treasures should be refined, not numerous.
What he lacked now was not magic treasures, but Primordial power and spirit veins.
Boom!
Just in the instant he was toying with the Heaven and Earth Conch, violent bombardments suddenly transmitted from the outside. An extremely strong dragon breath surged over once again.
His divine intent immediately vibrated, and the Thirty-Three Heavens supreme treasures and the Eight Divisions Pagoda turned into beams of light and entered his body. Opening his divine realms, he saw the underground desert he was in. Two figures launched attacks at him.
These two figures were both peerless Golden Immortals, one in black clothes and one in hemp garments. They were actually the Dragon Clan's other two Golden Immortals, Ao Shilie and Ao Shitu!
Swish swish swish!
The two Dragon Clan old antiquities pierced through the yellow sand and charged straight for Fang Han.
Fang Han's body swayed, directly rushing out from the surface of the sandbank and standing atop a towering sand dune.
"Brat, I didn't expect you to actually escape and not be killed by Ao Shizun!"
The two figures followed like shadows, landing on another sand dune. They looked at Fang Han as if looking at a freak. They simply could not understand how Fang Han could escape like this, and where did Ao Shizun go?
"Ao Shizun! Where have you gone? Possessing the Heaven and Earth Conch, yet you can't even kill a Half-Step Golden Immortal."
The black-clothed man Ao Shitu let out a long howl, emitting a dragon's cry.
"Stop shouting, Ao Shizun is already dead. He pursued me to kill me but failed, and was instead annihilated by me. He has become my nourishment. However, the two of you, don't even think about escaping today. You will both become my sacrificial offerings." Fang Han smiled slightly, looking at the blazing golden sun in the sky and the boundless desert and sandbanks. He knew this place was desolate and uninhabited. Cultivators might not reach here even in countless trillions of miles. This place was already the barren zone of the sandbanks.
To prove his persuasiveness, he played with the Heaven and Earth Conch in his hand.
"What? Ao Shizun was killed by you!"
"That is… the Heaven and Earth Conch!"
"Ao Shizun! He really has lost his aura. No matter how I use the Dragon Clan secret arts to sense it, I cannot feel his existence. He seems to have truly disappeared from this world."
"That's impossible. We, the Three Proud Dragons, have laughed proudly in the Dragon Realm for billions of years, and entering the Heaven Realm was to greatly display our skills. How could he die prematurely midway! Furthermore, how could he, a Half-Step Golden Immortal, kill Ao Shizun?"
The expressions of the two Dragon Clan grand ancestors were ferocious, yet also clearly displayed disbelief.
"No matter what, capture this person and we will know Ao Shizun's whereabouts. He must have used some restrictive law in the barren ancient city to ultimately trap Ao Shizun. We cannot detect his aura, which is why we have the illusion that he has already perished. Ao Shizun comprehended the Beast Dao from many epochs ago, he would absolutely not perish easily."
"Capture him!"
"Lock down the surroundings, we cannot let this junior escape again."
The black-clothed man Ao Shitu cast out streams of sealing marks, locking down this piece of heaven and earth. Even the grand sun in the sky darkened, unable to penetrate the barrier to shine through. For a time, dark clouds rolled in and densely covered the scene. Thunder and lightning were everywhere, with explosive thunder vibrating.
Meanwhile, the hemp-clothed man Ao Shilie transformed his body and directly executed the peerless martial arts of the Dragon Clan. The first move of the Divine Dragon Seven Stances: "Battle Dragon in the Heavens," suppressing down from the void.
Countless wild battle dragons emerged in the air, weaving into a giant palm that grabbed in the void, rising up to connect with the heaven and earth spirit energy, and reaching down to grasp the true spirits of the Nine Netherworlds.
"Run? Do I need to run?" Fang Han was completely unafraid and thoroughly released his Golden Immortal aura!
