"The battle is over…"
"Is this still human? The Emerald Heavenly Lord and the Yuanjin Heavenly Lord were directly killed just like that… Fang Han's strength has indeed become infinitely close to a Heavenly Lord."
"The strength of these two great Heavenly Lords is still above the Spear of Judgment and Emperor Xi, yet Fang Han could easily kill them. Doesn't that make him the number one person beneath the Heavenly Lords?"
"Formidable, truly formidable. No one expected him to grow to such an extent. The old Xu family is blessed. I heard that a female disciple of your Xu family, Xu Muyun, is particularly favored by Fang Han. In the future, when Fang Han promotes to the realm of a supreme Heavenly Lord, your Xu family will also rise with the tide, and everyone's lifespan will parallel the heavens."
The battle between Fang Han, the Emerald Heavenly Lord, and the Yuanjin Heavenly Lord ended in an instant, concluding with Fang Han sealing the two great Heavenly Lords and transforming them into a green and gold colored Yin-Yang fish Tai Chi diagram.
The people of the Nangong family, the Xuanyuan family, and the Xu family watching the battle from the ground below in the Heavenly Realm all breathed a sigh of relief, though everyone broke out in a cold sweat from shock.
"Swoosh!"
Fang Han descended.
Nangong Shangxin was the first to go up and welcome him: "Congratulations to Brother Fang Han on winning a complete victory, slaying and sealing the Emerald Heavenly Lord and the Yuanjin Heavenly Lord. The strength of these two great Heavenly Lords is extremely tyrannical. Once the seal is refined, Brother Fang Han can take a step further, and challenging the Dao of the Heavenly Lord will be just around the corner. When the day comes that you promote to a Heavenly Lord, please do not forget the friendship we share today."
"Haha, you are too kind, too kind." Fang Han laughed twice, and flipping his palm, he drew the emerald and gold colored Tai Chi diagram into his body: "Promoting to the Dao of the Heavenly Lord is no trivial matter, I am still far from it, and I must accumulate further and further. However, the harvest this time is quite abundant. The bodies of the Emerald Heavenly Lord and the Yuanjin Heavenly Lord are the rumored Emerald Divine Transformation Body and the Yuanjin Great Dao Body, the most supreme and noble existences among physical bodies. After I refine them, I will have a qualitative grasp over my own body. Moreover, being able to understand the methods of the Truth Immortal King is also a major assistance."
"Then what are Brother Fang Han's arrangements now? Currently, the Holy Land of Truth has already reached the point of coveting our Heavenly Court's hundred thousand great states. In the rumors, the ten great Heavenly Lords have already descended. The ten great Heavenly Lords of the Holy Land of Truth are all invincible figures, existences capable of promoting to Heavenly Lords. This Emerald Heavenly Lord and Yuanjin Heavenly Lord are merely the two weakest among them. Among the most tyrannical Heavenly Lords, there even seem to be figures who survived a failed Heavenly Lord tribulation. Does Brother Fang Han want to kill them one by one?"
Seeing that Fang Han seemed to have a plan in mind, Nangong Shangxin couldn't help but step forward to discuss.
"What? There are still people who survived failing to cross the Heavenly Lord tribulation?" Fang Han was slightly taken aback and immediately mobilized the massive memories within his body to search.
He had devoured many experts like ancient Emperors, Jun Cangsheng, Huangfu Dadao, and Emperor Calamity, and had just swallowed the two great Heavenly Lords, Emerald and Yuanjin, into his body. Once refined, the secrets of the Holy Land of Truth could not be hidden from him.
While searching through the memories, Nangong Shangxin slowly shook his head and said: "I only heard the Calamity Heavenly Lord speak of it. When he imparted Dao arts to me, he said I would soon be able to cultivate to the realm of lifespan paralleling heaven and earth, and even have strength comparable to an ancient Emperor, but he also mentioned that beneath the Heavenly Lords, there are some terrifying figures, those who failed the tribulation but did not die. These figures are all without exception invincible experts whose murderous auras pierce the skies…"
"En, within the Holy Land of Truth, there are indeed such figures. On the Heavenly Lord Alternative List within the Holy Land of Truth, the top three experts are all figures who triggered the Heavenly Lord tribulation and failed, yet did not die. If I encounter them, I might not necessarily be able to kill them. These figures are all accumulating power, preparing to charge at the juncture once again."
Fang Han slowly familiarized himself with some memories, beginning to refine the Emerald Heavenly Lord and the Yuanjin Heavenly Lord within his body.
These two great Heavenly Lords, having lost their Truth Gourds that stored Heavenly Vein essence energy, completely lacked the power to resist Fang Han and could only obediently be refined.
Then, Fang Han began to thoroughly deprive the two men of the divine arts within their bodies.
The greatest divine art within these two men's bodies was called the "Immortal Heavenly Art of the Dynasty of Truth," and it used one's own physical body as the foundation, applying the eternal and indestructible primeval truth to forge an undying, imperishable, and immortal dynasty to be passed down through generations.
Using oneself to transform into a dynasty.
Oneself was an era; the primordial spirit was the ruler, the five viscera, six bowels, and every meridian were the ministers, the muscles, bones, flesh, and blood were the mountains and rivers, the eyes and pupils were the sun, moon, and stars, and the hair was an inescapable net…
Circulating the dynasty of oneself, and integrating with the grand momentum of heaven and earth, turning into an indestructible body, creating a separate wondrous spectacle, this simply gave Fang Han new inspiration.
The Immortal Heavenly Art of the Dynasty of Truth.
Fang Han instantly plundered the divine arts from the bodies of the two men, merging them into his own body, and unrolled the unparalleled peerless Dao of Calculation. Immediately, the three great divine arts within his body—the Good Fortune Divine Fist, the Origin Divine Fist, and the Immortal Heavenly Art of the Dynasty of Truth—mutually enlightened and supplemented each other, actually accommodating the Great Dao of the three generating all things.
Fang Han's Dao of Calculation, having inherited the 'Dao attainment' of the Samsara Daoist, combined with the calculations of the Universal Heaven Astrolabe, already possessed a Heavenly Lord's calculative power. Like the "God of Optical Computers" in a technological civilization from many epochs ago, it could operate hundreds of billions of trillions of times in every given instant.
"Buzz!"
Just like this, amidst the step-by-step calculations, the billowing Heavenly Vein essence energy burned upon Fang Han's body, and bursts of light flashed. The Origin Divine Fist, the Good Fortune Divine Fist, and the Dynasty of Truth all transformed into supreme secret arts, condensing into the forms of the Good Fortune Immortal King, the Origin Immortal King, and the Truth Immortal King.
The Good Fortune Immortal King was a middle-aged man, clad in a yellow robe, gripping great authority, representing unparalleled steadiness.
The Origin Immortal King was a young man, standing with his hands behind his back, looking toward the future, holding the earliest primal point, continuously giving birth to new matter.
The Truth Immortal King was an old man, sitting cross-legged, his hair and beard entirely white. He seemed to have grasped all the truth in the world, his wisdom unparalleled, representing absolute truth that applied everywhere.
The three great Immortal Kings circulated around in a tight circle within Fang Han's mind.
"Book of the Epoch!"
With a spew from Fang Han, the Book of the Epoch manifested above his head, and the Tai Chi diagram transformed from the Emerald Heavenly Lord and the Yuanjin Heavenly Lord was completely driven into it. The phantoms of the three great Immortal Kings also rapidly entered the book, expounding the varying Daos of the epochs.
"Buzz!"
A profound and wondrous sound that vibrated heaven and earth transmitted out, radiating in all directions with Fang Han at the center. That profound sound had form and substance, and every single wondrous sound was a musical note. Like the most profound fluctuation, it washed all the people surrounding him.
"Ah!" Nangong Shangxin, being closest to Fang Han, was instantly charged into by these profound musical notes. His entire body immediately began to wriggle like water ripples. During the wriggling process, streams of black smoke evaporated from his body, and foul-smelling dark water flowed out from all over him. Especially within his mind, dark thoughts one after another, and some damaged thoughts, were also vibrated out. Those were the wrong paths of cultivation, or demonic thoughts, usually accumulating in the body and erupting uncontrollably upon encountering a great tribulation.
But now, they were altogether vibrated entirely out of the body by the profound musical notes emanating from Fang Han.
In almost a matter of breaths, Nangong felt his magical power advancing, completely shedding his mortal body and exchanging his bones, and it seemed he had an infinite grasp over the path of his future cultivation.
Just like him, many experts of the Xu family, the Nangong family, and the Xuanyuan family were also washed by Fang Han's profound musical notes, producing the exact same effect as Nangong Shangxin.
Large amounts of cultivation impurities from their bodies, and even impurities from their own thoughts, were vibrated out, granting them the benefits of having their mortal forms shed and marrow washed.
Everyone essentially received a sort of washing, a kind of baptism.
"Enlightenment! Brother Fang Han has attained Dao enlightenment!"
Seeing this situation, Nangong Shangxin, the Head of the Xuanyuan family Xuanyuan Zhulu, and the Head of the Xu family all roared wildly, ecstatic to the extreme, and simultaneously shocked beyond words.
Fang Han's musical notes suddenly retracted entirely, and a light of clear enlightenment appeared on his face, as if he had become a Buddha on the spot. A casual smile from him caused the colors of the entire heaven and earth to become vivid; when he smiled, the heaven, earth, and universe smiled, and when he became serious, the heaven, earth, and universe became serious… When he became angry, the heaven, earth, and universe were filled with tides, violent storms, and wild lightning everywhere.
"Xuanyuan family, Nangong family, Xu family, all of you listen. The Heavenly Realm has encountered a massive situation right now, and you must unite to be able to ultimately overcome the difficulties and tribulations. You have obtained my Epoch Wondrous Sound and washed away your own filth. In the future, no matter who it is, your cultivation of magical power will progress by leaps and bounds. Now, all of you bring all your resources, go to the Yuhua Sect, and await the commands of my senior brother Yuhuang. I need to make a trip to the Heavenly Court to seek the final opportunity to promote to the Dao of the Heavenly Lord. Go!"
While Fang Han was speaking, he already carried a commanding tone. According to the usual reasoning, given this level of wisdom, the Xuanyuan family, the Xu family, and the Nangong family would resist; none wanted the lineage they had inherited for hundreds of millions of years to merge into someone else's.
But now, Fang Han had refined the Emerald Heavenly Lord and the Yuanjin Heavenly Lord, comprehended the Daos of the three great Immortal Kings, and evolved the Epoch Wondrous Sound. Every action of his carried an intimidating aura; even an ancient Emperor had no choice but to submit.
The experts of these three great families simultaneously produced a single thought.
"We obey your command!"
Fang Han nodded, waving his large hand, and his entire person soared into the sky, disappearing from sight. He actually arrived in the extreme high firmament, and it seemed he had truly gone to the Heavenly Court.
"Everyone, Brother Xuanyuan Zhulu, Brother Xu, and the family heads… To the numerous Emperors of my Nangong family, Fang Han has already given the order, and it cannot be disobeyed. We shall carry it out immediately. Bring all resources and let us go to the Yuhua Sect."
Nangong Shangxin immediately commanded the crowd, moving with the speed and force of thunder and wind.
At this exact moment, within the Yuhua Sect, many people were cultivating painstakingly, especially Yuhuang, who was comprehending the Heavenly Lord martial Dao fragments Fang Han had obtained, and had also melted the Holy-grade immortal pill within his body.
He was currently engaged in bitter comprehension and melting.
Suddenly, in the sky, a profound musical syllable flowed down, and countless martial Dao divine arts merged into his body. Crack! The martial Dao fragments in his body that he had struggled to refine suddenly shattered to pieces.
He fiercely opened his eyes and stood up, moving heaven and earth. He actually faintly possessed the aura of the Emerald Heavenly Lord and the Yuanjin Heavenly Lord!
"Junior Brother, have you reached such a realm?" Yuhuang muttered. "From here, I congratulate you on cultivating into a Heavenly Lord early."
