"To think this Fang Han actually dares to sit upon the altar; he is truly dead for certain. Nobody can let him off. Earlier, he was far too arrogant, actually directly demanding the Flower of the Other Shore, Immortal King flesh and blood, and the Seven Great Sacred Artifacts of the Barbarian race from us. Who does he think he is? To be so arrogant and domineering. If we didn't have a scheme against him and feared he might notice, I would have killed him in a single strike just now, letting him comprehend the formidability of our Monster, Barbarian, and Beast threefold alliance."
"Enough, stop transmitting divine intents. This is a critical moment. If he ends up discovering our conspiracy, wouldn't that be failing to steal the chicken and losing the rice instead?"
"Hmph, what is there to fear? Right now, with so many of us gathered together urging the altar, even if we explicitly tell that Fang Han and Lightning Mother about our conspiracy, they can only obediently accept death. There is only one outcome, and that is to be possessed by the Lord of All Beasts. Would the Lord of All Beasts let them off? Our combined power is not something they can resist."
"That is true. The Lord of Nian Beasts, Barbarian Ancestor, and Lord of All Monsters have already set up sufficient Dao arts and prepared the most fierce absolute killing methods. He is fundamentally no match."
"Alright, everyone, top discussing this. Take your positions and observe exactly how Fang Han wields the force of destiny. By seizing this opportunity to comprehend his practice of the Great Destiny Technique, our cultivation will also advance by leaps and bounds." Suddenly, the Lord of Nian Beasts spoke out. He finally stopped the divine intent fluctuations of the many Heavenly Lords of the threefold alliance. At the same time, he strictly cautioned: "Please do not ever underestimate Fang Han and the Lightning Mother. When these two join forces and risk their lives, even an Immortal King must yield three points. Right now, the only thing we must do is not make them suspicious, while ensuring they ultimately empower the body of the Lord of All Beasts with the force of destiny. With just a single thread, the Lord of All Beasts can transcend space and time, burn his massive divine body, and thoroughly descend. Only at that time can we truly put Fang Han and the Lightning Mother to death. To be frankly honest, even with our three races joining forces right now, it is impossible to slay him; he could completely leave at a leisurely pace."
"That's right, do not act rashly."
The Barbarian Ancestor also cautioned: "The overall strength of our threefold alliance is inferior to the Tiandu Cult. That Hua Tiandu, with his seventeen epochs of cultivation, united all the experts of the Upper Realm Above, and simultaneously they have the backing of the formidable Good Fortune Immortal King, Origin, Truth, Mythical Old Man, and the Origin Lord, yet even they could do nothing against Fang Han. Relying on the strength of our three races to obliterate him is wishful thinking."
"Indeed." The Lord of All Monsters also said: "Even if our threefold alliance combined with the Tiandu Cult, we still could do nothing to him; at most, we could only temporarily seal him away."
"The three leaders are correct; we will pay attention." The hundreds of Heavenly Lords of the three races nodded consecutively, concentrating their full attention.
"Brother Fang Han, Lightning Mother, you can now exert the force of destiny. All our experts will immediately pour down our origin." Having persuaded the crowd, only then did the Lord of Nian Beasts speak out again. His body jolted violently, and waving both hands, he unleashed streaks of runes into the air, practically causing everyone watching to be dazzled.
These runes unexpectedly also assumed the flame state of Lingzhi, burning fiercely, unceasingly burning his own origin.
"Grand Spirit Burning Art, destroying the universe, dominating the world, reversing the sun and moon, cleansing human hearts."
Buzz!
All the Heavenly Lords unleashed such a Grand Art, violently bombarding downward. A burst of Heavenly Lord origin that was practically solid washed over the heads of Fang Han and Fang Qingxue like a waterfall.
Receiving this Heavenly Lord origin all at once, Fang Han abruptly stood up. His entirely black hair fluttered wildly, and his magical body continuously expanded.
Hundreds of Heavenly Lords with extremely formidable magical power, along with the Lord of All Monsters and Barbarian Ancestor who were invincible experts of sixteen epochs, and the Lord of Nian Beasts whose cultivation had reached seventeen epochs. With the origins of these people compounded together and poured through his crown, if it were anyone else other than Fang Han, they might have exploded and died.
Fang Qingxue was clearly struggling to endure it somewhat. The moment the Heavenly Lord origin poured down, her face turned blood-red at once, and tiny beads of blood appeared on her delicate skin.
Her entire body was bathed in blood; it seemed that surge of origin was about to squeeze all her fresh blood out through her pores, terrifying and dripping heavily.
With a single glance, Fang Han saw this scene. Fang Qingxue being unable to endure the Heavenly Lord origin empowerment was also within his expectations. His Dao of Epoch had calculated everything long ago, even including the various reactions of the Lord of All Beasts, the backlash of the Gate of Eternal Life, and the massive power of the order laws. All of this had been repeatedly verified and calculated within his mind.
"Sixteen epochs, elevate the cultivation!"
Rumble!
Fang Han pressed his large hand down, resting it on the top of Fang Qingxue's head. Immediately, all the blood on her body transformed into a rune and entered between her own brows, turning into a miniature blood universe. The endless power of that blood universe completely accommodated the poured-down Heavenly Lord origin, converting it into her own origin and integrating it with herself.
Fang Qingxue also stood up, her black hair fluttering. Her entirely being was sacred and incredibly beautiful, possessing country-toppling elegance.
Her original cultivation of fifteen epochs had now finally reached sixteen epochs. Almost in an instant, she had thoroughly broken through the bottleneck. The briefness of this time would make even an Immortal King marvel.
"Qingxue, this group of people is a calamity. Although they passed down Heavenly Lord origin, that origin contains miniscule restrictive arts attempting to control us. Yet I saw through it long ago and neutralized it with the Great Destiny Technique, hmph! These people will have to eat the fruits of their own actions. Are you ready now? We must use all this Heavenly Lord origin to directly speak with the Lord of All Beasts. The moment of life and death is about to arrive."
Fang Han spoke solemnly.
"I am already prepared. With my cultivation elevated to sixteen epochs, I am fully capable of thoroughly grasping the force of destiny. Although I still haven't restored my invincible divine might from back then, these minor figures are no longer highly regarded in my eyes." Within Fang Qingxue's intent, an aura that treated the clouds with contempt, looked down upon the world, and dominated destiny emanated. She was a thorough powerhouse. "Even against the Nian Beast with seventeen epochs of cultivation, I can battle him now. You and I shall join forces and clash with that Lord of All Beasts!"
"Good, good, good. Then we shall stake everything on a single throw; victory or defeat hinges on this one move. Destiny is on our side, and we are destined to win!" Fang Han had never possessed such intense confidence as he did at this moment. At this very instant, his life had climbed to a new zenith.
"Brother Fang Han, you may now sacrifice the force of destiny. With us expending Heavenly Lord origin to condense power for you, we cannot hold out for too long." The Lord of Nian Beasts suddenly spoke out.
In truth, his heart was bleeding. He had just expended a vast amount of Heavenly Lord origin, which was borrowed by Fang Han to elevate Fang Qingxue's cultivation. It was practically losing one third of his origin, an unbearably heavy burden.
In his heart, he gnashed his teeth: "Fang Han, Lightning Mother, you wretched pair can feel smug temporarily. Just wait a while; when the Lord of All Beasts descends, it will be the date of your death. The things you took from me, you will have to vomit all back, principal and interest included."
"Very well, Brother Nian Beast, you do not need to worry. Things that I, Fang Han, have promised are never false, let alone deceptive. Right now, the Lightning Mother and I will join forces, urge destiny, cross the Gate of Eternal Life, and empower the body of the Lord of All Beasts. I hope the Lord of All Beasts also fulfills his promise; after descending, grant me enough benefits to elevate both me and the Lightning Mother to the realm of Immortal Kings." Fang Han also projected his voice, responding to the Lord of Nian Beasts.
"Excellent." Hearing Fang Han's affirming response, the Lord of Nian Beasts' heart steadied significantly, rapidly promising: "No problem. As long as the Lord of All Beasts descends, he will aid you in killing Hua Tiandu, and give you the Three Lives Stone and the Origin Lord's skeleton from his body entirely. Quickly begin now, the Lord of All Beasts can wait no longer; do not let him lose his patience."
"Alright, everyone, pay attention. Amplify your power once again and pour your origin into me!" Fang Han finally began to make a move. Joining forces with Fang Qingxue, he struck out the Great Destiny Technique, piercing through layers of thick mist to reach the interior of the Gate of Eternal Life.
Almost everyone beheld the great power rolling open.
This was the Immortal King Battlefield, positioned right outside the Gate of Eternal Life, exceedingly close to it. When Fang Han shook this majestic existence with the Great Destiny Technique, everyone present felt the Gate of Eternal Life tremble slightly. The entire Immortal King Battlefield rippled violently, seemingly about to cease to exist. The earth beneath their feet cracked inch by inch, and one space-time after another stood on the verge of destruction.
"Not good, the fluctuations here are too violent, stabilize it quickly." The experts of the three races all paled with fright.
"Pay no attention to it, concentrate entirely. As long as the Lord of All Beasts returns, even if the entire Immortal King Battlefield is destroyed, it will amount to nothing." The Lord of Nian Beasts roared fiercely, suppressing the heavens.
Immediately, all the experts calmed down. Every single one of them focused intently, pouring out even more Heavenly Lord origin.
"This is the moment. I have already locked onto the aura of the Lord of All Beasts." Fang Han's destiny directly pierced through the crystal wall systems of the Gate of Eternal Life. In an instant, revisiting the familiar place, he saw the void where the Lord of All Beasts existed.
The massive Lord of All Beasts, an Immortal King expert, was still lying dormant within. Under the power of the Gate of Eternal Life, an Immortal King was not much stronger than an ant.
Yet at this very moment, upon the colossal body of the Lord of All Beasts, his tiny primordial spirit showed an expression of anticipation, projecting an incredibly sinister aura.
Rumble!
At this very moment, Fang Han and Fang Qingxue had completely dropped the mixed origin of numerous Heavenly Lords, blended with their own will, and combined with the force of destiny.
"Finally, this day has come!"
Seeing this power, the Lord of All Beasts practically trembled throughout his entire body. Grabbing with his large hand, instantly, the force of destiny communicated with his soul.
In an instant, Fang Han and Fang Qingxue both felt an evil, formidable, boundless beast intent that filled heaven and earth brutally dominate their souls, reaching to the deepest core of their hearts and sowing a seed.
The ultimate moment of confrontation had arrived.
