The appearance of the tribulation represented that Fang Han had indeed reached a critical point between an Ancestral Immortal and an Origin Immortal, and he was just a tiny bit away from being able to condense the imperishable spiritual light, the Dao of unifying heaven and earth to the origin, and reach the Origin Immortal realm.
If it were said that an Ancestral Immortal was a Saint Son of a sect.
Then the status of an Origin Immortal could be raised again, almost enough to become a vice sect master of a sect.
Fang Han himself also felt his own tribulation. Opening his Cave Heaven Divine Eye, he saw that in the depths of the alternate spatial dimension in the sky, the laws of heaven and earth were brewing, as if a sharp sword was hanging above his head, ready to descend at any time and slay him.
"My tribulation is extremely formidable. Right now I can only suppress the aura, preventing the laws of heaven and earth from descending prematurely. Because I have not yet collected enough primordial origin qi, if the tribulation descends at this time, I will truly be facing disaster." Fang Han immediately operated his realm of Heaven and Earth as One in secret, suppressing the boiling origin qi within his body.
He had to collect the primordial spirit qi of more than eight King Grade spirit veins before he could finally initiate the tribulation, temper his form, and condense all the laws in his body into a speck of imperishable spiritual light.
Otherwise, without enough origin qi, he would die immediately.
Originally, when a tribulation arrived for a normal person, they fundamentally could not suppress it, but he was different. With the realm of Heaven and Earth as One, he could mobilize the laws of heaven and earth at any time.
Thus, everyone saw a strange scene: above the long river that Fang Han transformed into, dark clouds were densely packed, thunder and lightning flashed, and countless humanoid lightning bolts shuttled back and forth upon it like a grand army, but they simply could not descend.
"This Feng Yuan's tribulation is truly massive. Look, inside those dark clouds, the grand army composed of humanoid lightning, as well as lightning spears, lightning swords, lightning javelins, lightning drums…"
The Little Axe Emperor and the Little Rain Emperor both moved a bit further away from Fang Han, their hearts trembling with fear. They were also people who had reached the critical point, terrified that the aura of Fang Han's tribulation would affect them, and if that tribulation descended, they wouldn't even be able to cry.
They looked at the dark clouds above the long river that Fang Han transformed into. Inside, the lightning continuously refined and transformed into an army of humanoid lightning, appearing to be heavenly soldiers and generals preparing to descend and carry out strangulation. Countless giant lightning weapons condensed into form: swords, pagodas, cauldrons, furnaces, bells, drums… The momentum was massive. If it were to descend, they feared the entire demon cave would be submerged by the lightning.
Even so, some of the lightning transformed into holy maps, displaying tens of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, a beautiful universe, and some further transformed into heavenly palaces to carry out suppression.
If this kind of tribulation were to descend, the Little Rain Emperor and the Little Axe Emperor felt their Emperor marks would be obliterated. They absolutely could not resist such a powerful tribulation.
However, the tribulation in the sky became increasingly numerous and clear, about to break through the alternate spatial dimension and descend, but it still had no way of truly descending.
"He possesses the realm of Heaven and Earth as One and can suppress the aura. Yet, continuing like this, the more he suppresses, the fiercer the tribulation will become. Even if he can survive it, his origin qi will be greatly injured for a period of time."
"He seems to lack enough spirit veins and must collect more King Grade spirit veins to advance. Fortunately, he entered this Ruins of Antiquity. If he were outside, advancing to an Origin Immortal with such might would bankrupt a King Grade grand sect."
"Our spirit veins are sufficient. How about advancing now?" The Little Rain Emperor said to the Little Axe Emperor.
"Let's wait a bit. We will talk about it after Feng Yuan advances successfully. Suppose all three of us are advancing and the Little Stone Emperor suddenly comes out for a sneak attack, we will all die. After refining us, I fear he would immediately become a Saint right on the spot. Lawless and unrestrained."
"En, if Feng Yuan advances successfully and stands guard for us, it will definitely be absolutely safe."
"Look, ahead, another immemorial demonic city has been destroyed. An ancient demon, a Flood Tiger, has been killed by him."
Between the two's conversation, the long river that Fang Han transformed into submerged the nine provinces and eight directions. The entire demon cave seemed to be submerged by the great flood of the long river. Wherever it passed, not a blade of grass grew, and not a trace of aura was left behind.
In the distance, another immemorial demonic city was directly swept up by Fang Han, tossed onto the high crest of a wave, and then shattered. A Flood Tiger demon inside roared continuously, but was swept up by a wave and submerged within, facing a devastating disaster.
Even the immemorial demonic city was shattered into powder by Fang Han's wave and merged into it.
The long river Fang Han transformed into was not truly water waves, but torrents of crystals. These crystals were like flowing sand, dazzling like a silver river. Sweeping and rubbing against each other, the power was immense, to the point that they could even shatter the imperishable spiritual light of an Origin Immortal.
Within this long river mixed the waves of destiny and the profound mysteries of predestination, washing away everything. Dissolving everything.
The moment that immemorial demonic city was broken, a King Grade spirit vein darted out from inside, like a grey dragon shuttling through the flow of the river.
Fang Han suddenly let out a long howl, and a full three grey dragons appeared in the river, tumbling within. Each grey dragon was a King Grade spirit vein.
In addition to this, many small dragons also swam in the river, amounting to fully hundreds of thousands. With a loud roar, these small dragons also condensed into a great dragon, but it lacked the aura of a ruler.
These small dragons were the First Grade spirit veins Fang Han had collected. In quantity, they could rival a King Grade spirit vein, but in quality, they lacked the aura of a ruler. Fortunately, these spirit veins could be burned while passing the heavenly tribulation, and they would be just as useful.
Now, Fang Han fully possessed the origin qi equivalent to the quantity of five King Grade spirit veins, tumbling within the crystal sand river. Five dragons rose from the water.
Advancing all the way, more rivers of malicious qi on the ground also flew up and entered the crystal sand river. With a slight tumble, all the malicious qi was washed away, still transforming into individual small dragons.
In a short while, hundreds of thousands of First Grade spirit veins transformed into a great dragon once again.
The primordial origin qi equivalent to the quantity of six King Grade spirit veins.
Fang Han poured all his strength to collect spirit veins in this demonic cave. No matter what kind of demon it was, he went directly at it, using his crystal divine kingdoms to grind and instantly pulverize them. Some powerful demons also contained spirit veins in their bodies, which he plundered and acquired.
As he went all out, his true power became visible; he was practically unstoppable!
"So many Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons."
Suddenly up ahead, an incomparably giant demonic city appeared. This demonic city was surprisingly formed by densely packed ruyis, suppressing all immemorial demonic cities.
Numerous Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons flew out of the demon race city.
Only Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons were the rulers within the demon kingdom.
"My heavens, just how many Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons are there in that demonic city." The Little Rain Emperor and the Little Axe Emperor were shocked: "However, inside that demonic city of Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons, what a strong spirit vein aura, many King Grade spirit veins." With a glance, the two could see that winding around within that demon race city were individual King Grade spirit veins, looking like vines. It made onlookers go mad.
If this immemorial demon race city were to reach the Heavenly Realm, who knew how much bloody slaughter it would cause.
Upon seeing this, the Little Rain Emperor, the Little Axe Emperor, and the Saint Sons and Saint Daughters of the three great sects felt their blood boiling.
However, subsequently, the densely packed Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons, like locusts, caused their hot blood to run cold. Entering with so many Heavenly Demons was practically courting death; even an Origin Immortal would be immediately dismembered without leaving a corpse.
Yet, Fang Han's crystal long river showed no fear at all. Facing a flock of powerful Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons, fully tens of thousands strong, blocking the sky and the sun like locusts, they were entirely strangled by a sweep of his long river, facing a devastating disaster.
However, even more Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons flew out, practically endless. These Heavenly Demons, some transformed into ruyis, some arranged into great formations, suddenly launching an attack. Torrents of billions of Great Immortal Techniques bombarded out from them, practically parting heaven and earth, bringing a feeling that they were going to pierce through the Ruins of Antiquity.
Unfortunately, these Great Immortal Technique torrents shot into the crystal long river and vanished without a trace, like clay oxen entering the sea.
The crystal sand long river Fang Han transformed into swallowed ten thousand laws, and broke ten thousand laws.
Kill!
From within the grand army of Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons, a massive torrent of voices transmitted out, shaking the firmament until it cracked. More Heavenly Demons filled the air, and their attacks became fierce once again.
"Break!" Fang Han's crystal sand long river leaped fiercely. Ripples appeared on top of it, and countless crystals shot up, transforming into individual crystal Ancestral Gods. Each of these crystal Ancestral Gods had a huge body, entirely filled with a fine luster. Holding various weapons, they directly charged and slaughtered their way into the grand army of Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons.
"Weng!"
These Ancestral Gods were all transformed by crystal divine kingdoms, their bodies incomparably hard and indestructible. Shua shua shua shua shua… Countless Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons were pierced through by the Ancestral Gods, exploding in mid-air.
The Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons were a grand army, and Fang Han was equally a grand army. The grand army of Ancestral Gods, transformed by individual crystal divine kingdoms, blocked out the sky and reflected brilliance, engaging in mutual combat with the Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons.
The bodies of those Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons were extremely hard, but compared to the Crystals of Good Fortune, they were still far inferior and were continuously pierced through.
Every Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demon was an extremely powerful existence. Inherently containing some amount of First Grade spirit veins in their bodies, they were all killed by Fang Han, and all these spirit veins were acquired.
In an instant, within the crystal sand long river, many more small dragons appeared, roaring endlessly, transforming into a giant grey dragon.
A total of primordial origin qi equivalent to the quantity of seven King Grade spirit veins.
Moreover, every time a Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demon was slaughtered, the Ancestral God transformed from a crystal divine kingdom would swallow this Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demon, strengthening itself another fraction.
The crystal Ancestral Gods that Fang Han fought with grew more valiant and powerful the more they fought, beating the grand army of Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons in the sky to pieces, sweeping them away broadly like a wind scattering the last clouds.
Ao ao!
Suddenly, from within that immemorial demon race city, a terrifying roar shot straight into the sky. Formless power transmitted out, and immediately, tens of thousands of Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons formed a giant palm, grabbing out in mid-air. On that giant palm, the eye of a Demon Emperor unexpectedly appeared.
Clearly, a formidable figure among the Wish-Fulfilling Heavenly Demons had made a move.
All of Fang Han's Ancestral God crystals gathered successively, likewise transforming into a large hand shooting radiant light, striking out directly with a single palm in mid-air. With a pop sound, it exploded that hand, and then grabbed, unexpectedly aiming directly at the center of the immemorial demonic city, seizing towards those vine-like tangled King Grade spirit veins.
As long as he could acquire these King Grade spirit veins, Fang Han could immediately pass his heavenly tribulation.
