Having gained a new realization regarding the Epoch Dao, Fang Han began to set about condensing the talisman of the Epoch Divine Fist according to the prototype of the Myriad Emperors Martial Scriptures.
The Epoch Divine Fist was a martial art created by his own self. It was currently still in a childish stage, and perhaps in the eyes of many Saints, this martial art appeared extremely crude and laughable, yet it possessed rich potential. In the future, it would grow into a supreme martial Dao comparable to the Creation Divine Fist.
Right now, Fang Han's "Epoch Divine Fist" was merely a mayfly, but once he gradually grew up, it would become a primordial behemoth that shocked heaven and earth.
"Myriad Emperors Martial Scriptures, integrate into the Epoch, and become civilization histories!"
With a stir of Fang Han's mind, he sat down cross-legged and urged his own intention once again. The deduction of his divine kingdom, the Heaven Cycle Instrument, and the Eight Divisions Pagoda Heavenly Destiny Sphere also began to revolve.
That talisman of the Epoch Divine Fist gradually transformed into a book.
Originally, this talisman jumped about erratically, transforming into many patterns without repeating, but now it stabilized, changing into a book. However, the contents within the book were also like an epoch, forever innovating and representing civilization.
"God Race civilization history! Become the first page of the Book of Epoch!"
Fang Han's hands struck out countless Daos of Endings and the Twilight of the Gods. Immediately, many God Race characters were engraved upon the Book of Epoch, becoming the first page. If someone were to read this book at this time, they would see the vast God Race civilization history on the first page manifesting one by one before their eyes.
Regarding the civilization of the God Race, Fang Han knew it most profoundly.
The civilization of the God Race was obtained personally by Fang Han from the intention of the Endings Holy King. No one had a deeper understanding than him, except, of course, for Heavenly Concubine Wumo and the Progenitor Holy King.
These two founders and educators of the God Race stood above Fang Han.
"The second page of the Book of Epoch, the civilization of the Buddha!"
Fang Han struck out a second hand seal again. Buddhas and scriptures as numerous as the sands of the Ganges were struck into it. The second page of this book thus narrated the epics, mysteries, and vast as the sea civilization of Buddhism.
His comprehension of Buddhism was also exceedingly profound. Not to mention the talisman of the World Honored Freedom King Buddha, just the Great Karma Technique and various Buddhist Three Thousand Great Daos had all been deduced to the realm of pure perfection.
"The third page of the Book of Epoch, the civilization of the Dragon!"
Countless giant dragons, galloping and roaring, a host of dragons without a leader, manifested on the third page.
At this point, the civilization histories on the first three pages of the Book of Epoch were finalized.
The civilization of God.
The civilization of Buddha.
The civilization of Dragon.
Once the three great civilizations were established, Fang Han experienced a vibration, and it seemed his realm had elevated quite a bit once more. On the dark path of the future, a bright light of wisdom appeared.
This was not an elevation in power. His actual physical strength did not increase by the slightest bit, but his wisdom became purer, far more perceptive of the epoch, understanding the various changes of the future and the various tributaries of destiny.
While condensing the three great civilizations, it was equivalent to him recalling and organizing the three great civilization histories all over again, and many new realizations flowed in his heart.
Never had there been a moment where his mind was so clear, so perceptive regarding epochs and civilization histories. He had become an architect and founder of a civilization.
He seemingly felt as if he had personally founded three great civilizations.
"The fourth page, the civilization of humans."
"The fifth page, the civilization of immortals."
"The sixth page, the civilization of witches."
"The seventh page, the civilization of barbarians."
"The eighth page, the civilization of Alaya."
Amidst continuous deductions and evolutions, one civilization history after another appeared within the Book of Epoch. The first ten or so pages of the Book of Epoch all displayed records of civilization histories.
If this book were to fall into the secular world now, it would be revered by countless Dao cultivators as a classic, the unique true book.
Fang Han became more and more proficient, and towards the end, even Xiang Yizhen's Book of Darkness and the Night Emperor's civilization were written upon it. Having sealed Xiang Yizhen now, he could obtain many of his Dao technique comprehensions, and even the mysteries of his inherent divine abilities, which played a massive role in the process of condensing the Book of Epoch.
"Good! It is done! The Book of Epoch has condensed its prototype."
Fang Han stood up and observed the Book of Epoch within his body. There were fully fifteen chapters of civilization histories recorded upon it. Each chapter radiated a soft luster and an epic-like aura. The characters flowing upon it made one feel the profundity of civilizations and the far-reaching nature of wisdom.
The wisdom of all living beings.
"This is a book that bears the wisdom of all living beings from ancient times to the present, the Book of Epoch." Fang Han's heart was pure and clear. He saw through the future Dao, and amidst the unseen, he also felt the vague power of that Gate of Eternal Life deep within the Heaven Realm, an existence fully capable of swallowing everything and spitting out everything.
In the future to come, he needed to continuously accumulate knowledge, learn of more civilizations, and write the wisdom of all living beings onto it.
Every civilization history was a brilliant musical movement of life, forged by containing the wisdom of countless living beings.
What Fang Han needed to do now was to record these civilization histories upon it one by one, preventing them from perishing and preventing them from being buried in the dust of the long river of history.
Recording history, bearing the wisdom of all living beings.
Fang Han felt a great responsibility, and his mind broadened incomparably.
His entire body's divine kingdom, amidst the elevation of wisdom, rearranged and combined to become even more perfect and solid. Every inch of Fang Han's skin had elegantly epic characters flowing upon it.
He seemed to have detached from the category of power and entered a realm of instantly becoming a Saint.
"Condensing the Book of Epoch this time is of great help to my cultivation base. In the future, when I advance to an even higher realm and comprehend the Dao of Source Immortals, it will be much easier. I will elevate my cultivation base at an astonishing speed, making all people in the world shocked by it." Fang Han was acutely perceptive of his own realm.
After condensing the Book of Epoch, he dispersed his power, strolled among the bookshelves, and began reading the books within the Water Moon Cave Heaven library.
Casually, he pulled out a classical scripture from the side.
This classical scripture was exceedingly large, the size of a door panel and three zhang thick, resembling a boulder.
"This Tripitaka records some principles of Buddhism, minor and major divine abilities, supreme magical arts, and also the memories of numerous immortal Buddhas. It was left behind by an ancient Buddha who was slain by the Yuhua Sect."
Fang Han merely stirred slightly, casting his gaze upon this book, and immediately the scriptures upon it were rubbed down, transforming into knowledge that merged into his own mind. After circulating slightly, it entered the second page of the Book of Epoch, within the civilization of the Buddha.
In the span of three breaths, all the essence and knowledge of a book were digested, comprehended, and completely acquired by Fang Han entirely.
Faced with this "Tripitaka," even an ordinary Ancestral Immortal would need months of time to read and comprehend its essence. A genius Ancestral Immortal would also need a few days, but Fang Han used just a few breaths to completely finish reading and digesting it.
Turning his head, Fang Han's gaze fell upon other books, and the divine light in his eyes grew increasingly intense. The books within dozens of miles around his body were flipped through with clattering sounds.
"The Heaven's Praise Scripture, which records the epic of an ancient tribal civilization, has aspects worthy of reference. The Book of King Gesar is also a classic of a Barbarian Race tribe. Hmm? This classical scripture is the genealogy and family instructions of the Yan Family, an extinguished great aristocratic family of the Heaven Realm; the records of various events are also of great benefit to me…"
In an instant, the knowledge from thousands of books all entered Fang Han's mind. After digestion, it merged into the Book of Epoch, adding new chapters to this book or enriching the civilization of the Immortal Dao.
The books Fang Han read included the epics of ancient tribes, the hand-written notes of major figures, the genealogies of families, the yearbooks of the Heavenly Court… Most of these books did not record divine ability cultivation, but rather recorded comprehensions of certain matters, all containing the rich and delicate emotions of their authors within them.
However, the benefit of this for Fang Han was immense.
What he needed right now was not divine ability cultivation formulas, but this knowledge, comprehensions, and introductions.
Every book would normally require an expert a long time to read, yet his efficiency was astonishingly fast. In a short while, tens of thousands of thick books were completely digested. The knowledge transformed into wisdom and merged into the Book of Epoch.
The power of the Book of Epoch also grew quite a bit.
Fang Han felt that if he were to execute the Epoch Divine Fist right now, its might would be fully thirty percent greater than before.
"If I finish reading all the books in this library? Absorbing the knowledge and converting it into wisdom? To what extent will the Book of Epoch become powerful?" Upon Fang Han's body, Primal Beginning Qi began to burn. The divine kingdom deductions around his body reached their utmost state, and that Thirty-Three Heavens Ultimate Treasures and the Eight Divisions Pagoda also began to run wildly, assisting Fang Han in rubbing the characters.
Boom!
Countless books were irradiated by Fang Han's divine light. The knowledge, wisdom, comprehensions, and characters upon them all turned into a rolling torrent that entered Fang Han's body. Tens of thousands of classical texts were read by Fang Han once again.
In this brief moment, what he accomplished was equivalent to the reading volume of many experts over decades.
Within this "Water Moon Cave Heaven Library," every book was a rare treasure and classic. They were collected by the ancestral master of the Yuhua Sect, Heavenly Lord Hua, as well as gathered and recorded from the outside by experts of the Yuhua Sect throughout successive generations, provided for disciples to read, view, and elevate their wisdom.
However, after ordinary disciples entered, they would dismiss these books with a glance; they wanted to seek powerful Dao technique cultivation classical texts to read.
In Fang Han's eyes, this was attending to the trifles while neglecting the essentials.
"Myriad forms of wisdom, gathered in one body." Fang Han strolled leisurely within the Water Moon Cave Heaven library. The torrent of knowledge around his body grew larger and larger, while the number of pages in the Book of Epoch continued to increase. The civilization histories upon it were added one after another, and the civilization histories on the first few pages also became increasingly rich.
In the library, there were classical texts written in God Race characters left behind by some God Race experts slain by the Yuhua Sect. They too were read, viewed, and digested by Fang Han, increasing the content of the God civilization on the first page.
All around Fang Han, endless wisdom crystals finally appeared out of thin air, forging resplendent bright light amidst the roaring Primal Beginning flames. Never had Fang Han felt such complete and satisfying exhilaration as in this moment.
He was like a Taotie beast, entering into an ocean of delicacies.
However, this unbridled reading also massively consumed Primal Beginning Qi.
