Fang Han carefully observed Qiankun City, restraining his magical power while simultaneously altering his appearance. He also paid enough Immortal King Pills for the fee to enter the city and went inside.
The moment he entered the city, he immediately felt waves of rich Qi of Eternal Life blowing against his face.
Originally, outside the city, the laws were severely twisted and cultivating was completely impossible. Because Qiankun City was the closest place to the Gate of Eternal Life, affected by this invincible artifact, the origin inside many cultivators' bodies would become violent. However, upon entering Qiankun City, the origin flowed finely and was very peaceful. The laws were also gentle, and the Qi of Eternal Life was uniquely condensed and easy to absorb.
It was no wonder that everyone wanted to enter Qiankun City.
Because even for Heavenly Lords, the speed of cultivation in Qiankun City would be hundreds or thousands of times faster than outside, without any danger.
"Great means, great means. It's clearly the Lord of Qiankun exercising invincible magical power to fix the movement of all vitality here, carving out this city in the chaos to counteract the influence of the Gate of Eternal Life. This Lord of Qiankun is certainly a formidable existence; if I fought him now, I might not be able to defeat him."
Upon entering Qiankun City, Fang Han activated the realm of Heaven and Earth as One and began to observe his surroundings.
He felt several extremely formidable powers lingering within Qiankun City. At the same time, in the deepest central part of Qiankun City, a great power almost comparable to an Immortal King lay dormant. Within Fang Han's Great Destiny Technique, that great power was simply omnipresent, affecting every movement of Qiankun City, and that great power resided within a gourd.
Undoubtedly, this power belonged to the Lord of Qiankun.
Facing this power, Fang Han couldn't act rashly now.
He decided to properly stroll around Qiankun City to gather information.
However, Fang Han did not know where the best place to gather information in Qiankun City was. But he wasn't in a hurry either, taking a leisurely walk on the city streets and slowly observing everything.
Qiankun City was too big; various shops, businesses, and divine objects were innumerable. It could be called the place with the most treasures across all heavens.
Whether it was the Dragon Realm, Demon Realm, God Realm, Buddha Realm… adding up the treasures from some of the myriad worlds in the heavens, there might not be as many treasures as in Qiankun City.
Fang Han even saw some ancient Heavenly Lords in the shops exchanging divine objects to acquire what they needed.
Rumble!
Suddenly, news spread out on the street, transmitting in all directions like a plague. "What? In the upcoming auction at the Qiankun Venue, a divine object has appeared, the Heavenly Artifact, Heaven and Earth Mysterious Gate. It's actually being put up for auction?"
"What, Heaven and Earth Mysterious Gate? Isn't this a divine object left behind by Immortal King Xuanmen from a very ancient epoch? It's rumored that this portal represents equal fame with the Gate of All Wonders and the Gate of Punishing Immortals, created as an imitation of the Gate of Eternal Life. Even if the Lord of Qiankun obtained it, he wouldn't put it up for auction, right?"
"That is unknown. The rumor has it that it seems the Lord of Qiankun, Lord of Yin and Yang, Lord of Fresh Blood, and Ancestor Master Dual仪… these people got close to the Gate of Eternal Life again and found a divine object in the ruins in front of it. Therefore, everyone has a share of ownership, so they took it out together to auction for enough Immortal King Pills."
"Then who can afford to buy this Heaven and Earth Mysterious Gate?"
"Among the heavens, there are always capable people."
"In this grand auction, besides the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Gate, there are also many powerful Sacred Grade Immortal Artifacts, and even ancient characters flowing out from the Gate of Eternal Life for auction."
"With ancient characters, if they don't cultivate them themselves, why bring them out for auction?"
"Perhaps the cultivation methods they practice don't align with the ancient characters. Such things are not uncommon."
On the streets of the grand Qiankun City, some Heavenly Lords were discussing animatedly, and it reached Fang Han's ears. Various experts formed a torrent walking forward.
"Oh? The auction house at the Qiankun Venue? Auctioning a divine artifact this time? Heaven and Earth Mysterious Gate?"
Upon listening slightly, Fang Han understood what was going on. In Qiankun City's largest auction venue, heavily prized artifacts from the heavens were going to be sold, existences comparable to the Heaven Burying Coffin, Fengshan Altar, and Hongmeng Hall.
"Heaven and Earth Mysterious Gate."
Fang Han did know of this magical treasure. In a very ancient era, this magical treasure once ruled the heavens for several epochs. The mysterious gate was even the predecessor of the Immortal Dao.
Now, there were still Immortal Dao cultivators who called themselves cultivators of the mysterious gate.
This portal stood shoulder to shoulder with the Gate of All Wonders, Gate of Great Void, Gate of Punishing Immortals, and Gate of Good Fortune. If it was truly brought out for auction, probably no one could afford it. This was a heavy treasure, the heaviest of the heavy.
However, just this piece of news caught Fang Han's attention, and he decided to go in and take a look, while also inquiring about news regarding Fang Qingxue along the way.
Where was the best place to gather information? Naturally, at an auction.
Following the rolling stream of people, he entered in front of a giant hall. He saw thirty-something Heavenly Lords standing in front of this hall, all wearing armor and possessing boundless magical power, each inspecting the experts entering the venue. At the same time, they made people pay enough Immortal King Pills.
Every expert entering the venue had to pay ten thousand Immortal King Pills as an entrance fee!
This instantly blocked a massive number of experts from entering. Thinking about it, an ordinary Heavenly Lord simply couldn't produce so many Immortal King Pills.
But Fang Han casually brought out ten thousand Immortal King Pills and tossed them to the Heavenly Lord guarding the venue, entering gracefully. What he lacked least right now was Immortal King Pills; he could manufacture the pills himself. With a single breath, in the deep void, the Qi of Eternal Life from the Gate of Eternal Life near-teleported into his body, and after circulating through his crystal divine kingdom, Immortal King Pills were endlessly manufactured.
When he had the cultivation of twelve epochs, his ability to manufacture Immortal King Pills was limited. But now reaching fourteen epochs, taking the Great Destiny Technique a step further, manufacturing Immortal King Pills took almost no time and didn't even cause any fluctuation of surrounding vitality. They were manufactured silently, in whatever quantity desired.
As long as he spent some time, it wasn't impossible for the Immortal King Pills he manufactured to buy all of Qiankun City.
No one could compete in wealth with him.
"Brother, your cultivation is quite good, and your appearance is very unfamiliar. Are you a Heavenly Lord from the lower realm?" Just as Fang Han was walking into the auction venue, behind him, soundless, a Heavenly Lord followed up. This Heavenly Lord had also just paid enough Immortal King Pills, showing no change in expression or a rapid heartbeat, revealing extremely abundant financial resources.
Fang Han turned around and saw that this Heavenly Lord wore a long black robe, looked extremely handsome and elegant, had fair fingers, exuded a suave demeanor, and held a black scepter engraved with a black round sun.
Someone striking up a conversation with him, and possessing high magical power, actually being a peak Heavenly Lord with ten epochs of cultivation, Fang Han's mind couldn't help moving. "May I ask how to address you, brother?"
"I am Night Emperor."
This young man dressed in black smiled, his pupils completely black, giving people a quiet feeling.
"Heavenly Lord Night Emperor!" Fang Han was greatly startled. "Ruler of the Night Realm, rumor has it that you were the Heavenly Court's mortal enemy? Haven't you already perished? How come you appear here?"
"Oh? I didn't expect someone to still know my reputation." Heavenly Lord Night Emperor smiled. "Back then, when I fought the Heavenly Court, we were evenly matched. But later I suffered grave injuries, so I lurked in the Boundary Above Boundary to recuperate. I was reborn from tribulation many years ago, and my magical power advanced a step further, reaching my current cultivation. As for you, brother, you are very unfamiliar. Based on your current cultivation aura, you are not beneath me, but I didn't see you in the ancient era either. How should I address you?"
"My name is Fang Han! The sect master of Epoch Gate. Now establishing the Origin Realm. But Brother Night Emperor, do not reveal my identity; I am here disguised, and some of my enemies are also the Heavenly Court."
Fang Han passed over a divine sense. He could tell that this Heavenly Lord Night Emperor was someone who could be accepted.
"What? You are Heavenly Lord of Epoch Fang Han? Rumor has it that you successively subdued the God Realm, then subdued the Demon Realm, Dragon Realm, and Buddha Realm, fought heavily against the Heavenly Court. Now the Heavenly Court has gathered experts from the myriad heavens to exterminate your Epoch Gate together. This news is even known by some in the Boundary Above Boundary, and you still dare to come to this Qiankun City? You should know, you seized the Pill Realm, and the Lord of the Pill Realm, Heavenly Lord Chana, is a disciple of the Lord of Qiankun. Making a comeback, he will also deal with you. Also, right now, Eternal, Thunder Emperor, Chaos, Disaster, and Slaughter of the Heavenly Court have also arrived in the Boundary Above Boundary. They seem to have succeeded in cultivating some supreme magical power, advancing to peak Heavenly Lords. You must be careful."
Night Emperor was genuinely greatly startled, but since he was a mortal enemy of the Heavenly Court, upon hearing it was Fang Han, he immediately started to give warnings.
"Rest assured, brother, the Heavenly Court is just a bunch of chickens and dogs, I can sweep them away at any time." Fang Han transmitted his divine sense, "Moreover, now, I might not be afraid of that Lord of Qiankun. By the way, Brother Night Emperor, you arrived in the Boundary Above Boundary early on. Do you know if anything major happened here recently? The reincarnation of Heavenly Lord Mother of Lightning has appeared, pursued by the Lord of Qiankun, Lord of Yin and Yang, Ancestor Master Dual仪… these magnates of the Boundary Above Boundary?"
Fang Han was already very familiar with Night Emperor after only chatting for two sentences, immediately asking him for information. He naturally wasn't afraid of Night Emperor exposing his identity; with his current magical power, he could directly stifle Night Emperor.
He could thoroughly see that Night Emperor's cultivation was at the peak of ten epochs. Although he could earn ample respect in the Boundary Above Boundary, unfortunately, in his hands, he would die without lasting a single move.
Furthermore, he silently blessed the Great Destiny Technique onto Heavenly Lord Night Emperor and found that after hearing he was Fang Han, this person only showed shock initially and didn't exhibit any other motives.
If he had exhibited other motives, schemes, or ruthless covert attacks, Fang Han's destiny would immediately fluctuate, and he would strike first to gain the upper hand.
This was the supreme mystery of the Great Destiny Technique.
