Yao Dian was a true disciple of the number one Daoist portal in the world, the Taiyi Sect. His Dao arts were profound and his magic power formidable; with Fang Han's current realm, he was absolutely not his match.
Let alone that the other party had cultivated to the fourth realm of the Divine Ability sequence, the Yin-Yang Realm, where gang qi possessed spirituality, was full of variations, and incomparably condensed; just the strength of the other party's magic power alone was at least more than double Fang Han's! His strength probably reached over five thousand Xuanhuang fiery horses.
When ordinary people just stepped into the Divine Ability Realm, their magic power was between eighty and two hundred horses.
After cultivating true qi, their magic power would be several times more vigorous, between three hundred and six or seven hundred horses.
Cultivating gang qi meant one thousand to three thousand horses!
And after stepping into the Yin-Yang Realm, it was a gathered strength of at least five thousand galloping fiery horses. Cultivating the Yin-Yang Realm to its peak meant the galloping of ten thousand horses; destroying cities, churning rivers, and moving houses were all done in a single thought.
Fang Han's current strength was only equivalent to over two thousand galloping fiery horses, a huge difference from Yao Dian. Logically speaking, he would be killed or captured the moment they met. However, having refined the "Five Hells King Cauldron," he could use this treasure of the Great Heavenly Demonic King to protect his body. Early on, before making a move just now, he had used a concealment talisman to hide this cauldron, and upon striking, he entered the cauldron to protect himself.
"Quickly come in! We will join forces and use the power of this King Cauldron to charge out!"
At this moment of dodging into the cauldron, Fang Han's spirit transmitted into the minds of Long Xuan and the demoness.
When martial arts cultivated to the Divine Transformation realm, one could communicate with spirit, let alone experts of the Divine Ability Realm. With a mere stir of Fang Han's thoughts, Long Xuan and the demoness understood his intention. The two circulated their magic power and abruptly plunged into the cauldron.
"Cold Hornless Dragon transforming into a dragon, Ice Soul Divine Thunder!"
In the instant of dodging into the cauldron, Long Xuan gave the Cold Hornless Dragon Sword a shake. Instantly, dozens of Ice Soul Divine Thunders spat out from the sword, blasting toward that white heavenly lion in the distance.
Fang Han had just condensed true qi, transforming it into a "Heavenly Wood Divine Needle" for an assassination strike, but it was swallowed by a white "heavenly lion" transformed from Yao Dian's gang qi. If this wooden needle could not be retrieved, Fang Han's true qi would suffer a deficit, and it would take at least several years to condense it back.
Long Xuan deeply understood this point, so she wanted to blast open that white heavenly lion to let Fang Han retrieve his true qi.
"Want to retrieve the true qi?" Seeing the momentum, Yao Dian made the mouth of the white heavenly lion beside him open again, and suddenly a violent gale thrust out, actually swallowing those Ice Soul Divine Thunders into its stomach as well. Long Xuan's expression changed, continuously spurring her magic power, but the Ice Soul Divine Thunders were actually like mud oxen entering the sea, losing their connection, fundamentally unable to explode.
When divine abilities cultivated to the level of the fourth realm, the "Yin-Yang Realm," gang qi could be condensed into objects possessing spirituality, like Fang Qingxue's two "Purple Lightning Yin-Yang Great Snakes." Now, the true form of Yao Dian's gang qi was a white heavenly lion, incomparably mighty, seemingly able to swallow all things. This was a divine ability of the Taiyi Sect, called the "Heavenly Lion Great Method."
Once, an elder of the Taiyi Sect executed this "Heavenly Lion Great Method" and swallowed an entire country's hundred thousand troops and horses in one gulp.
"Wu! Gu! Ba! Ma! Hong! Ya! Dou! Po!"
Right at this moment, a strong sound wave broke through the void, actually transforming into eight green dragon forms, closely following behind the Ice Soul Divine Thunders and charging toward the heavenly lion.
Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds!
These green dragon forms of the Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds were different from the heavenly lion; it was merely a change in form, without true spirituality. But it was the sound roared out by condensing all of Fang Han's true qi. Especially within those green dragon forms, a trace of faint yellow that was hard for people to detect was mixed in.
It was water vapor condensed from the Forgetfulness Water.
"Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds? Wanting to break my Heavenly Lion Great Method? Wishful thinking! None of you make a move, I will capture these three myself!" Yao Dian did not take it to heart, preparing to execute a divine ability to trap the Five Hells King Cauldron, while instructing the other disciples not to act rashly and let him handle it alone.
Hearing Yao Dian's instructions, those disciples indeed did not strike, retreating far away. Even the other two great true disciples flew high into the sky and stood by with folded arms, displaying the demeanor of the number one Great Daoist portal in the world.
This move displayed the distinctiveness of the Taiyi Sect; every disciple was extremely proud.
"The Heavenly Lion opens its mouth, swallowing mountains and rivers with its qi!"
Whisps of white gang qi boiled on Yao Dian's body once more, injecting into the heavenly lion's body. The white heavenly lion immediately expanded, growing into a giant male lion fully the size of a small hill. Opening its mouth and taking a breath, it inhaled all the dragon forms of the Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds into it. It did not stop there; the lion's mouth opened wide, forcibly biting toward the "Five Hells King Cauldron."
The Five Hells King Cauldron was the size of a house; even a giant python of the Black Water King Snake's level could not swallow it down. But after this heavenly lion opened its mouth, it completely enveloped it, truly possessing the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers with its qi.
"Seeking death!"
Yan, hiding within the Yellow Spring Diagram, called out. The Forgetfulness Water mixed within the Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds abruptly activated.
"What is going on!" The Forgetfulness Water entered the heavenly lion's belly, entangling with the heavenly lion's gang qi. Instantly, like acid corroding skin and flesh, green smoke rose straight up, hissing, and an intense pain transmitted into Yao Dian's mind. The heavenly lion's true form was condensed from his gang qi; once it was injured, he also felt it keenly.
Waves of gang qi were corroded, collapsing from the inside. The magnificent heavenly lion was in extreme pain, raising its head to the sky and letting out a roar…
"Five Hells King Cauldron! Break for me!" Seeing this, Fang Han immediately spurred the great cauldron, viciously plunging it into the mouth of this heavenly lion, entering its vital core. Then, he activated the cauldron's array formations. Instantly, streaks of fierce fire shot out from the King Cauldron. The fierce fire took a spherical shape, covered in thorns, like individual chestnuts. Upon encountering the heavenly lion's gang qi, they immediately blasted open.
This was an array formation within the Five Hells King Cauldron that condensed flames to emit Five Fire Divine Thunders. It could not only refine the hardest ores and vajra, melting them into steam, but also be cast out to bombard enemies.
The Five Hells King Cauldron contained nine hundred and ninety-nine grand arrays, each possessing very strong power. Although Fang Han had refined them one by one, fully spurring all of them was fundamentally impossible because he did not have such vigorous magic power.
To spur all nine hundred grand arrays of the Five Hells King Cauldron at once would require the strength of at least a hundred thousand galloping fiery horses, so currently he could only choose to spur the Five Fire Divine Thunder Grand Array, out of which the destructive power was passable.
Clusters of exploding fierce fires formed flaming spheres the size of three or four acres, propping open from inside the heavenly lion. Instantly, this heavenly lion was blasted to pieces, milky-white gang qi splashing everywhere.
As the heavenly lion split apart, Yao Dian felt the connection and fiercely spat out a mouthful of fresh blood! He had first been plotted against by Yan, then caught off guard by Fang Han, capsizing his boat in the gutter.
"Crash!" Seeing this opportunity, Fang Han did not dawdle. He spurred another grand array of the King Cauldron, entering a high-speed spin. Mixed with a rumbling sonic boom, it crashed toward Yao Dian.
The house-sized King Cauldron crashed toward this outstanding disciple of the Taiyi Sect!
