"Emperor Fierce does not need to act with undue haste. That Feng Yuan only has a few days left to hop around; he is but a grasshopper at the end of autumn. Did you not invite the two senior predecessors, Emperor Qi and Emperor Void, to deal with them? With these two taking action, it will be absolutely foolproof. They can completely exterminate Emperor Feather along with Feng Yuan, directly crushing them to death."
Seeing Emperor Fierce stomping in fury, the supreme sect master of the Five Peaks Divine Sect, "Emperor Peak," quickly offered consolation.
"That is true. I used a hand-copied scripture of my father, the Disaster Heavenly Monarch, to exchange for them taking action. This temptation is something they will find difficult to resist."
Emperor Fierce's expression was vicious, but he managed to calm down, no longer roaring.
However, in the next moment, a powerful talisman abruptly shot in from outside Emperor Fierce's mansion. Everyone felt a terrifying oppressive force. Emperor Fierce grabbed with his hand and caught that talisman.
The talisman exploded, revealing the phantom of "Emperor Qi": "Emperor Fierce, regarding this matter of yours, this old man and Emperor Void will not participate. Additionally, Emperor Void and I must warn you: do not act rashly. Emperor Feather's strength is rapidly increasing, and his current ability in slaying the barbarian tribe is no less than ours. If he truly acts ruthlessly and blood splatters within five steps, you will not be able to withstand it. Also, it is certain that behind that Feng Yuan, there is the shadow of a Heavenly Monarch. If his backing is the Heavenly Monarch Many Treasures, then he is not beneath you. Of course, this matter damages the majesty of the Heavenly Court. If word spreads and causes dissension within the Heavenly Court, I am afraid even the Disaster Heavenly Monarch will not spare you! Look out for yourself."
Boom!
The original qi dissipated, and Emperor Qi's form vanished.
"This…"
"They surprisingly refuse to take action?" All the experts present looked at each other in dismay, unable to speak.
"Damn it! Two old beasts! Retreating at this critical moment. I have wasted so many benefits on you usually. Sending treasure after treasure to your mansions, and now seeing that the other party has a Heavenly Monarch behind them, you retreat? Simply worthless cowards, trash!"
Emperor Fierce cursed loudly, his resentment soaring to the heavens.
However, facing this situation, he could only curse. He did not dare to do anything to "Emperor Qi" or "Emperor Void." These two great emperors were among the most powerful pillars of the Heavenly Court beneath the Heavenly Monarchs, and their importance far exceeded that of him, the son of a Heavenly Monarch.
If the Disaster Heavenly Monarch had to choose, he would definitely keep the two emperors and not this son.
The Disaster Heavenly Monarch had an unknown number of sons; giving up one was no big deal. If he could survive this epoch, he would have even more sons in the next epoch.
With every grand destruction of an epoch, these sons of the Heavenly Monarchs would not be preserved, but would directly fall. Because Heavenly Monarchs fundamentally could not protect them.
Because Heavenly Monarchs could hardly protect themselves. It was not a certainty that a Heavenly Monarch would survive the grand tribulation of heaven and earth's destruction; there was a high chance of falling. Every epoch tribulation for a Heavenly Monarch was an incredibly crucial moment of life and death, so where would they have the time to be distracted with preserving their descendants?
"Emperor Fierce, what do we do now? Since Emperor Qi and Emperor Void both refuse to act, they clearly saw something to be apprehensive about. Then I will also return to the Heavenly Court's Divine Prison; I will not get involved in this matter."
Emperor Massacre concealed the "Saber of Massacre" in his hand, and his body transformed into a blade of light, surprisingly leaving just like that. He wisely chose not to wade into this muddy water. Even mighty figures like Emperor Qi and Emperor Void refused to act, so he had no reason to persist. Playing it safe was the right path; otherwise, ending up dead with his dao extinguished was entirely possible.
With "Emperor Massacre" gone, the scene became even more desolate, leaving only a scant few experts. The sect master of the Five Peaks Divine Sect had an extremely ugly expression. He cursed under his breath, not even knowing what exactly he was cursing at. Subsequently, he adjusted his mindset and said viciously: "Emperor Fierce, rest assured. The entirety of my Five Peaks Divine Sect will always support you. The Ascension Sect and I have long forged an irreconcilable blood feud. That little beast Feng Yuan killed three of my great Saints; I must tear his corpse to thousands of pieces."
"Good! Truly, strong winds reveal tough grass, distance tests a horse's stamina, and over time one sees a person's true heart. As long as you follow me, you will not lack benefits." Emperor Fierce was no longer roaring now. He sat down stably, his eyes burning with ghost fire, looking indescribably savage, simply like a devil, terrifyingly demonic. The other emperors of the Five Peaks Divine Sect saw this appearance and felt a secret dread in their hearts, wondering if it was worthwhile for their sect master to cooperate with such a deranged figure.
"It is not that I have no way to deal with this person! Come, follow me to the Capital of Slaughter. The powerhouses under the Heavenly Monarch of Slaughter hold no taboos and will not fear these things."
Emperor Fierce suddenly stood up…
At this time, Fang Han was cultivating within "Wuhua Palace."
Utilizing the divine talisman to pass through layers of restrictive formations, as soon as he entered Wuhua Palace, he immediately felt vast original qi rushing against his face. Everywhere in the void, streaks of original qi talismans were cascading down, like falling celestial flowers.
Those talismans resembled bodhi tree leaves, yet also looked like human palms, with clear veins detailing the textures of the Great Dao and the musical notes of heaven and earth. These were naturally condensed from original qi.
"Indestructible Heavenly Talismans."
It was rumored that if the Heavenly Vein Original Qi leaked even the slightest bit, it could condense in the air into Indestructible Heavenly Talismans, enduring endlessly. If an immortal absorbed the original qi of these Indestructible Heavenly Talismans, they could advance by leaps and bounds, comprehending the true meaning of the Great Dao. Even long-term absorption of these heavenly talismans and indestructible original qi by an emperor held the hope of comprehending the Dao of the Heavenly Monarch.
As soon as all the Holy Sons of the Ascension Sect entered the Wuhua Hall, they began closed-door cultivation and comprehension, everyone entering a state of Dao enlightenment. Fang Han took a look, nodded immediately, and suddenly drove all the Saint talismans he had collected one after another into the bodies of some genius disciples.
He had slain many Saints of the Hua family and refined them into talismans. He perfectly seized this opportunity to boost the combat power of these disciples in one fell swoop, enabling them to break through into the realm of Heaven and Man within a short period!
The Ascension Sect had lost the Hua family, which was indeed a huge loss; half of its essence original qi was gone. But if he could use the Saints of the Hua family to cultivate a batch of elite disciples, it could compensate for it.
Streak after streak of talismans entered the bodies of these disciples, and these disciples entered an even deeper state of Dao enlightenment.
Meanwhile, Fang Han fully deployed the Eight部 Pagoda, reversed time, and began to cultivate himself.
He opened his large mouth, and instantly, the snow-like "Indestructible Heavenly Talismans" in the air were swallowed into his abdomen. As they were catalyzed, they turned into rolling hot currents, flowing everywhere within the countless crystal divine realms.
"Indeed, the Heavenly Vein Original Qi is no trivial matter. The Great Dao of heaven and earth cannot be simulated by an ordinary person." Fang Han utilized the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasure to calculate for a long time, yet he was consistently unable to deduce the mysteries of the Heavenly Veins. The Great Dao of heaven and earth contained within each piece of those Indestructible Heavenly Talismans was not something the "Circulation Gauge" could calculate.
"Unfortunately, because the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasure lacks the fragments of the artifacts of creation, it has been overshadowed by the Eight部 Pagoda. If this continues, once my Wings of Freedom and Staff of Legend are both refined into King Grade Immortal Artifacts, this weapon that I once took pride in will completely become my weakest magical treasure."
Fang Han shook his head.
On one hand, he comprehended the original qi, and on the other, he comprehended the changes that occurred to the Lesser Fatalism technique during his recent duel with Emperor Massacre.
In the dark absolute, he entered a profound state. The original qi within his body was refined over and over again, hammered a thousand times, accumulating power. The Heavenly Vein Original Qi within this Wuhua Hall was of immense benefit to him; it could almost completely readjust all the original qi in his body.
"Nine Transformations of Fatalism, the River of Fate…" Fang Han repeatedly applied the Lesser Fatalism technique and the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasure Circulation Gauge to deduce the original qi structure of the Indestructible Heavenly Talismans.
Suddenly, Fang Han's entire body trembled.
His Lesser Fatalism technique transformed into a phantom of the Gate of Eternal Life.
The original qi of his own Saint-grade spiritual veins and King-grade spiritual veins directly rushed into that phantom. Under rapid circulation, it then sprayed out from the portal, surprisingly also turning into streak after streak of "Indestructible Heavenly Talismans."
"I actually evolved Indestructible Heavenly Talismans. Pity, what a pity… The heavenly talismans formed by these King-grade spiritual veins and Saint-grade spiritual veins lack the supreme aura of the Heaven's Will and are not as profoundly esoteric as the true Heavenly Vein Original Qi."
In Fang Han's left hand was a piece of "Indestructible Heavenly Talisman" formed from a Saint-grade spiritual vein, and in his right hand was a genuine Heavenly Vein spiritual talisman. Taking the two and comparing them, the clues became apparent.
The simulated Indestructible Heavenly Talisman was clearly dim and lacking in luster, its divine essence not flowing smoothly, whereas the genuine Heavenly Vein spiritual talisman was lively and unfettered, appearing ready to fly away at any moment, and contained within it was an acute Heaven's Will.
However, after the Saint-grade spiritual veins and King-grade spiritual veins were transformed into "Indestructible Heavenly Talismans," the effect was exceedingly clear. Compared to the previous naked absorption, the efficiency was unknown multiples greater.
"If one King-grade spiritual vein is formed into Indestructible Heavenly Talismans for absorption, it would have the effect of absorbing at least three spiritual veins. Good, after I return to the Ascension Sect, I will convert all the King-grade spiritual veins and Saint-grade spiritual veins into Indestructible Heavenly Talismans for the disciples to absorb. In this way, the resources of my Ascension Sect will be utilized to the maximum. Think about it, one King-grade spiritual vein equalling three of another sect's. How could my Ascension Sect not advance by leaps and bounds?"
Fang Han was quite delighted in his heart at having calculated the structure of the Indestructible Heavenly Talismans. The strengthening of the Ascension Sect was also beneficial to him.
"Let me try to impact the realm of the Utmost Immortal Emperor? Let us see exactly how far I am from this realm? Anyway, there is a lot of Heavenly Vein Original Qi here; an opportunity not to be missed, for it will not come again. Try a breakthrough?"
While speaking, Fang Han adjusted his realm, mindset, and original qi, suddenly surging towards a supreme pinnacle.
He possessed the experience of breaking through into the Utmost Immortal Emperor realm. This was something many Saints could not compare to, because the Heavenly Zen Buddha Emperor had imparted a lifetime of Dao cultivation comprehension to him. Furthermore, he had obtained the lifelong Dao cultivation experiences of the five great emperors: Emperor Blazing, Emperor Heart, Emperor Yan, Emperor Kill, and Emperor Dark—five sets of comprehensions on breaking through to supreme Emperor.
Converging these comprehensions together could transform into an unmatched spiritual will.
"The realm of the Utmost Immortal, the supreme immortal, the boundary of the supreme, the pinnacle immortal!" Fang Han highly condensed himself, and his entire body suddenly disappeared, as if he had already entered the supreme and nonpareil void expanse.
His entire being transformed into a wisp of supreme qi.
