Encountering the Ruyi Heavenly Demons blocking his way and summoning an army of demonic beasts to besiege him, Fang Han also began to grow somewhat impatient.
He had already executed supreme dao techniques. With thirty percent of his strength, he could not capture that group of Ruyi Heavenly Demons, and instead, he was counterattacked by the Ruyi Heavenly Demons, forcing him to execute the Great Protection Spell, transforming it into an eggshell-shaped sky curtain to guard the holy children of the three major sects.
The Great Protection Spell of the Three Thousand Great Daos was now readily used in his hands, nearly making him impervious to all evil and unbreakable by myriad methods.
"Collect for me! Era Book, divine fist unmatched, martial arts overlord!"
Fang Han stamped his foot, and an extremely formidable aura radiated out in the form of ripples, transforming into one concentric circle after another. In the front, many demons were immediately swept up by these ripples, successively dismembered, reduced to dust and powder, connecting into patches of dragon scales, expanding outward.
"All things transform into dragons, the destination of the pagoda, the place of dragon burial, Era burying dragon."
Fang Han actually integrated the true intent of the Sword Burial Art into the Eight Groups Pagoda, combining the sharpness of the sword dao civilization history with the vigor of the Eight Groups Pagoda. Those patches of dragon scales actually transformed into sharp dragon swords, shooting outward in barrages.
With every shot, countless demons died beneath the sword energy dragon scales, and then were successively converted, transforming into more dragon scales, completely while the first-tier spirit veins inside Fang Han's body rolled and burned, supporting the operation of the great dao technique of the Era burying dragon.
The great killing move of the Era burying dragon swept heaven and earth, and everything standing in its way was routed. Fang Han instantly broke through the torrent of the demonic beast army, arriving in front of that group of leading Ruyi Heavenly Demons. Striking out with one punch, fourteen times the combat power of the Era Divine Fist erupted. The crystal divine kingdom within his body cracked, and every ancestral god within it simultaneously executed the Era Divine Fist.
Rumble!
In the sky, the massive ruyi was shattered by Fang Han, turning into thousands of Ruyi Heavenly Demons dispersing in all directions.
Fang Han clasped his hands together, and thirty-three origin energy long rainbows appeared behind his back, sweeping all over the sky, weaving together, like the vast net of heaven taking in everything without missing a thing, instantly gathering all the Ruyi Heavenly Demons into his bag, and still turning them into a ruyi scepter, grasped in his hand.
This ruyi emitted resplendent light, its fierce aura shaking the heavens. Although the Ruyi Heavenly Demons inside were suppressed, they were restless, completely unyielding, always trying to fly out and display their great ferocity.
Fang Han continuously blessed the scepter with tens of thousands of restriction techniques before barely suppressing this ruyi and putting it away.
For a time, the demonic beast army successively retreated, shrinking into the depths of the alternate dimension space, amid the boundless baleful aura.
"To think this person can instantaneously erupt with fourteen times combat power surpassing the records of the Martial Scripture of All Emperors. Just what kind of existence is this? Especially that deduction technique of his, which is rather similar to the Little Destiny Spell of Big Sister Lightning Mother Heavenly Lord from back then, who shocked the great heavenly lords and challenged the Good Fortune Immortal King. To think it would appear on this person. No, perhaps it is not. I just do not know if that woman he encountered was exactly the Lightning Mother Heavenly Lord after reincarnation?"
Watching Fang Han momentarily unleash fourteen times combat power and seal the Ruyi Heavenly Demons, the Little Rain Emperor Xia Zhiqiu also felt secretly shocked in her heart. If Fang Han struck at her with this move, she feared it would be difficult to withstand.
Particularly, the divine ability vaguely similar to the Little Destiny Spell that Fang Han executed evoked her distant memories.
"Having managed to seal this group of Ruyi Heavenly Demons with great difficulty, to think that with my divine abilities, sealing them is still so strenuous. If we go deep inside, we must move cautiously step by step. Otherwise, encountering Ruyi Heavenly Demons again and suffering a sneak attack from other holy children, the consequences would truly be unimaginable." Fang Han felt things were thorny at this moment; the endless army of demonic beasts here made it difficult for him to take a single step forward.
"Origin energy, burn directly, refine the Ruyi Heavenly Demons, integrate into the Gate of Reaching Heaven."
While speaking, Fang Han began consuming a large number of spirit veins to refine the ruyi that the Ruyi Heavenly Demons transformed into.
To directly refine existences like the Ruyi Heavenly Demons, the required origin energy was simply an astronomical figure, but since entering the Immemorial Ruins, Fang Han had collected quite a few spirit veins and was not lacking them. In an instant, he burned tens of thousands of first-tier spirit veins, and immediately that ruyi began to melt within the Gate of Reaching Heaven. Many Ancestral Immortal laws were integrated into it, making the purple reaching heaven true energy within the Gate of Reaching Heaven increasingly dense.
Ordinary demons were born inheriting immemorial baleful aura. Although their strength was superior to Golden Immortals and comparable to Ancestral Immortals, there were no immortal dao laws inside their bodies. But the Ruyi Heavenly Demons were different; they were not ordinary demons, but war machines that fled from the ancient heavenly court, almost identical to ancient immortals, and contained powerful laws inside their bodies.
Fang Han summarily refined such a large number of Ruyi Heavenly Demons, infusing the laws into the Gate of Reaching Heaven, leading this magic treasure to gradually manifest formidable might.
Now among the Thirty-Three Heavens Treasures, only this Gate of Reaching Heaven had yet to change; all the others had already transformed into high-grade immortal artifacts. The Gate of Reaching Heaven remained a mid-grade immortal artifact.
This step was always difficult to cross.
The further it went, the more difficult the advancement of the Thirty-Three Heavens Treasures became. At each realm, the Thirty-Three Heavens Treasures would absorb massive amounts of origin energy laws, and the quantity absorbed would increase exponentially. A regular expert, even if an entire sect jointly refined this supreme treasure, would not have such powerful resources.
If Fang Han had not had fortuitous encounters over and over again, refining fragments of good fortune divine artifacts, simply collecting the materials for this supreme treasure's advancement would have rendered him penniless and stranded.
Fortunately, consecutively refining many pieces of good fortune divine artifact fragments made the quality of the Thirty-Three Heavens Treasures meet the advancement requirements long ago; it was just that the laws did not reach the limit.
But now, this vast number of Ruyi Heavenly Demons provided Fang Han with sufficient laws.
Refining them all, the purple reaching heaven true energy inside the Gate of Reaching Heaven thickened. As soon as the Ancestral Immortal laws contained within the bodies of the Ruyi Heavenly Demons entered the Gate of Reaching Heaven, they transformed into purple reaching heaven true energy.
Among this group of Ruyi Heavenly Demons, there were a full several hundred commanders at the Ancestral Immortal level. Now, refined one by one by Fang Han, it equated to devouring several hundred holy children from various major sects.
That purple true energy within the Gate of Reaching Heaven finally became dense, but there was still no sign of final change.
Fang Han was secretly startled in his heart: "Why is it that other treasures transformed into high-grade immortal artifacts, yet this Gate of Reaching Heaven is so difficult to change? The last layer is this hard to break through? The moment these Thirty-Three Heavens Treasures convert into high-grade immortal artifacts, powerful good fortune force will descend from all the heavens, causing me to elevate again. Only this is my true reliance that can kill the Little Stone Emperor Song Tengfei."
Refining over a hundred Ruyi Heavenly Demons equivalent to beginner Ancestral Immortals actually still did not cause the Gate of Reaching Heaven to metamorphose, and Fang Han was also helpless. If this situation were spoken out, it would scare people to death. Even some artifact refinement grandmasters of the heavenly realm would not believe a mere high-grade immortal artifact was so difficult to refine.
"Let us go, deeper again."
He gave his large sleeve a swish, moving forward cautiously step by step towards the depths. While deducting the whereabouts of the Little Stone Emperor, he deducted the whereabouts of other powerful holy children, and concurrently searched for more Ruyi Heavenly Demons to slaughter and refine.
He decided that he still needed to transform all the Thirty-Three Heavens Treasures into high-grade immortal artifacts in order to have absolute certainty of killing the Little Stone Emperor Song Tengfei; otherwise, there would still be some misgivings.
The Little Rain Emperor Xia Zhiqiu and the others followed behind him, investigating in all directions, having become much more careful, no longer acting as unscrupulously and lawlessly as outside.
Roar!
While the group walked, suddenly, amidst the baleful aura ahead, large swarms of demonic beasts appeared again. Many Ruyi Heavenly Demons were among them, coagulating into three massive ruyi scepters, attacking back and forth in the void.
This group of Ruyi Heavenly Demons seemed to have besieged someone. Fang Han fixed his gaze and saw a giant axe grasped in the hands of a colossal man, crashing against the three mountain-sized ruyi scepters. Besides, some experts among the Ruyi Heavenly Demons commanded many demonic beasts to conduct the siege.
"The Little Axe Emperor of the Xuanyuan Family, Xuanyuan Po. To think he is also trapped by the Ruyi Heavenly Demons. With this many Ruyi Heavenly Demons, he is already struggling to move forward and simply cannot break out. Feng Yuan, what do you think? Should we save this person, or take advantage of the situation to kick him while he is down and kill this person?"
The Little Rain Emperor Xia Zhiqiu hovered in the air, looking over from afar, having already recognized the giant man's origins.
"The Xuanyuan Family is not of kind sort, and that holy child Xuanyuan Chixiao even wanted to force me to marry him." Xu Muyun said: "It seems it is better to kill him."
"Brother Feng, this Xuanyuan Po has robust strength, and might not necessarily be killed instantly. If he isn't killed, forming a great enmity, he would not be an easy person to deal with. Also, it is rumored that this Xuanyuan Po has a heroic disposition, not a sinister and ruthless type, so it might be possible to befriend him." Sun Shihua secretly reminded, "The ancient Axe Emperor adhered to the dao of profound steadfastness and would not return kindness with ingratitude."
"Oh? I won't kick someone like that while they are down. I only strike at those who are sinister and vicious. Such a figure, saving him, forming a good bond, is not impossible."
Fang Han and Xia Zhiqiu exchanged glances, and their bodies turned into streams of light, directly charging towards the center of the demonic beast army where the Little Axe Emperor Xuanyuan Po was trapped.
"Two more holy children… Kill!"
An extremely powerful commander of the Ruyi Heavenly Demons became instantly furious upon seeing people fly in. With a shift of its body, an origin energy armor was already worn on it, with a long blood-colored cape fluttering behind. This Ruyi Heavenly Demon grasped with its large hand, instantly pulling a gold and red-painted crescent halberd out from the nothingness. This crescent halberd was not condensed from origin energy, but an ancient supreme-grade immortal artifact. It was unknown which fallen expert from ancient times left it in this alternate dimension space of the coffin of life and death, only for it to be obtained by this Ruyi Heavenly Demon commander. And then refined into a fatebound weapon.
Aooo, aooo!
With the crescent halberd in hand, this Ruyi Heavenly Demon commander actually charged simultaneously towards both Fang Han and the Little Rain Emperor Xia Zhiqiu. Swiping the large halberd, all life was reduced to the dao of destruction. Ghosts and gods wailed on the crescent-shaped edge of the large halberd, and the cold moon-like edge wrapped around both of their necks.
"Halberd Emperor Ghosts and Gods Edge! Ten times combat power!"
In the instant of its killing strike, the rolling spirit vein origin energy within the Ruyi Heavenly Demon commander burned, dividing into ten figures in a flicker.
