Last time, when Fang Han annihilated the Mother Cult of Heavenly Instruments, obtained the thirty-three heavens ancient characters, and then went to annihilate the Lord of War, the other party had actually vanished.
Later, a series of events occurred in the Realm Above Realms, and Fang Han forgot about these matters.
Now he had actually reappeared, and the Lord of War was dead. Ying Tianqing had seized the grand position, his magic power advancing to an inconceivable realm. Moreover, the Immortal King aura on his body seemed to have awakened; he was unexpectedly the reincarnation of an ancient Immortal King.
"Immortal King of Affection and Loyalty!"
Seeing this scene, Fang Qingxue's face changed drastically: "To think that this Ying Tianqing is actually the reincarnation of the ancient Immortal King of Affection and Loyalty, who fell long ago, even before Old Man Myth, yet he has emerged into the world once more, inconceivable. Fang Han look, inside the grand barrier where Ying Tianqing resides, Tianfei Wumo and the Seven Great Immemorial God Emperors of the God Race are all present, and their magic power has also advanced by leaps and bounds."
Sure enough, Fang Han also saw that Tianfei Wumo and the Immemorial God Emperors had mixed together with Ying Tianqing.
"This is nothing much. Ying Tianqing's magic power has only barely reached nineteen epochs. As for his reincarnated role as the Immortal King of Affection and Loyalty coming into play, even the descent of true Immortal Kings cannot do anything to me right now, let alone this mere reincarnated Immortal King. This spewing of divine objects is the moment of my true ascension. All enemies will be swept away, rest assured." Fang Han said.
"I know. The far ancient memories have actively awakened, so I have pretty much understood your identity now. But Hua Tiandu's identity is that of a tumor born from within the Gate of Eternal Life. Back then, he wanted you to refine him, but instead he followed you out and was sealed by the Creation Immortal King, fusing with the soul of Hua Tianjun, thereby giving birth to the deformed Hua Tiandu. You must be careful." Mother of Lightning Heavenly Lord said.
"I have already known everything; everything is within my grasp. The Immortal Kings are not omnipotent, whereas I am omnipotent." Fang Han said faintly, his facial emotions devoid of the slightest ripple.
"The Immortal Kings are not omnipotent, whereas I am omnipotent…" Hearing this sentence, Fang Qingxue was momentarily stunned. At this moment, she felt Fang Han's greatness, truly omnipotent.
Under Fang Han's manipulation, the World Tree expanded again, delving deeply into the river and ocean of spewed divine objects, relentlessly absorbing all kinds of divine objects.
Such a method made both Hua Tiandu and Ying Tianqing pale by comparison.
Of the first wave of divine objects spewed by the Gate of Eternal Life, Fang Han secured two-thirds. Of the remaining one-third, Hua Tiandu secured the greater half, and Ying Tianqing secured a minor half.
"Detestable!"
Hua Tiandu stood in the center of Tiandu City, grand in stature, looking up at the Gate of Eternal Life, unceasingly unleashing peerless divine abilities, yet unable to shake the World Tree in the slightest.
At this moment, he finally felt why the Progenitor Holy King suffered a grievous backlash when he severed the large tree back in the day.
"No rush, no rush. I will await the next spewing of the Gate of Eternal Life, which has a powerful existence like the Sansheng Stone, as well as the Dao character. As long as I obtain that Dao character, I can slay everything, and Fang Han will have to submit at my feet." Hua Tiandu once again intensified his power. At the same time, a halo in his hand concentrated all of the Immortal King power, poised to deliver a devastating strike to the Realm of Yuan at any moment.
"Tianfei Wumo, that Fang Han is so powerful! Although I have awakened my Immortal King power, I still cannot contend with his Dao arts." Ying Tianqing, the reincarnation of the Immortal King of Affection and Loyalty, stood inside a massive barrier looking at the World Tree, his face exceedingly grim.
"Immortal King of Affection and Loyalty, what you must do right now is survive within the cracks, snatch divine objects, consolidate your cultivation base, and cultivate yourself back to the Immortal King realm. Only then will you truly be able to contend, ally with the Progenitor Holy King, slay Fang Han, and achieve eternal life." Tianfei Wumo said coldly.
"This I know as well. Right now, Hua Tiandu and Fang Han vie for dominance. Hua Tiandu is the tumor of the Gate of Eternal Life, while Fang Han's identity is even more mysterious. With the two vying for dominance, one is bound to be injured…" Ying Tianqing said. "This is my excellent opportunity. Fang Han and I share a blood feud for killing my father; we cannot live under the same sky. I must slay him and settle this karma before I can advance to an even more profound realm."
Rumble!
Just as his voice fell, the gigantic Gate of Eternal Life commenced its second round of spewing, and this time, the spewing was even more ferocious.
Woo woo woo, woo woo woo… Ghosts wailed and gods howled, all gods resonated, and hosts of immortals chanted. Countless divine objects descended once more. Stalk after stalk of human-shaped spirit liquid, piece after piece of divine artifact materials, and even ancient characters emerged in a massive blowout.
The Gate of Eternal Life seemingly wanted to spit out all the divine objects that had not finished spewing over the past three thousand epochs completely and fully this time around.
"It has finally started spewing ancient characters!" Fang Han's familiarity with the Gate of Eternal Life surpassed any Immortal King. With a flash of his eyes, he saw many powerful ancient characters mixed among the numerous divine objects.
Soaring into the sky, he detached precisely from the Realm of Yuan and entered the river of divine objects, carrying the era divine might as he charged toward the Gate of Eternal Life.
Centered around him, the Era Divine Formation operated madly. Those divine objects cast themselves into it continuously and melted directly.
"Sea of Eternal Life, descend!" Raising both hands, Fang Han immediately brought down countless currents of eternal life qi once again. Above his head, they condensed into a massive ocean spanning hundreds of billions of light-years. Then, the "seawater" within the ocean formed chains of order, ultimately coalescing into an unparalleled giant net.
This large net entered directly into the long river to fish out divine objects and block the source, surprisingly intent on scooping all the divine objects cleanly in one go, without leaving the slightest scraps for Hua Tiandu or Ying Tianqing.
This move by Fang Han could not be described as anything but ruthless.
"So many ancient characters… Victory, King, Emperor, Marquis, Earl, Center…"
The gigantic Net of Eternal Life stretched across billions of light-years. As the giant net was cast, netting everything, Fang Han saw fully over a hundred ancient characters fall into his net. Among them were the legendary "King," "Emperor," "Marquis"… These tyrannical characters were surrounded by a group of weak ancient characters, like stars flocking around the moon. They charged out forcefully; if not for Fang Han's tyrannical magic power, he probably would have been vibrated directly out into an explosion. These ancient characters had independent personalities and were intelligent, seemingly acting like a group of unrestrained Immortal Venerables, supreme experts. Falling into the net, they did not submit but instead fought back fiercely.
However, the moment Fang Han activated the Great Destiny Art for a violent suppression, every single one of these ancient characters seemed to sense Fang Han's aura. They immediately became docile and naturally integrated into the Era Divine Formation, beginning to act as formation nodes for the Era Divine Formation.
Instantly, Fang Han's magic power surged enormously, and the Immortal King aura grew ever richer.
"Detestable! Damn it! Damn it all!"
Witnessing this scene, Hua Tiandu could finally endure no longer. His whole person leaped up abruptly, his large hands grabbing fiercely like a wolf or a tiger as he charged to attack Fang Han, unfurling his most powerful attacks: "Fang Han, don't you think about swallowing the ancient characters all by yourself."
With one punch, various Immortal King halos rose and fell in succession. Creation Divine Fist, Origin Divine Fist, Truth Divine Fist, Primordial Divine Fist, Mythological Fist, Dimensional Divine Fist… All kinds of ultimate techniques of the Immortal Kings were smelted into one furnace: "Fist of Tiandu!"
"Fang Han, you created the Dao of the Era! I have also created my Dao of Tiandu, the Heavenly Capital City!"
Hua Tiandu's divine fist pressed down ferociously, seemingly devouring mountains and rivers. The entire spewed river of divine objects was almost evaporated by this punch. The massive amount of evaporated divine objects was all integrated into his fist, making its power even greater.
His body stood fully tall at thousands of light-years, towering amid the pitch-black storm of destruction, exactly like the sole deity descending.
"Get lost!"
Fang Han only said two words, then struck a backhand punch, colliding with Hua Tiandu's divine fist. This punch of his was great clumsiness overcoming skill, entirely natural, but it was precisely this mundane and ordinary punch that caused Hua Tiandu's vast aura and his body that was thousands of light-years tall to instantly shatter, reverting into primal qi. Tumbling over and over in mid-air, he truly "rolled" away.
Even more ancient characters and divine objects entered Fang Han's body.
Fang Han was ruthless, exceptionally ruthless. Having offered up the Sea of Eternal Life, the seawater transformed into chains of order, coagulating into a grand net that locked down the entrance of the Gate of Eternal Life. Those spewed divine objects all fell into it; it was impossible for outsiders to even get a sip of the soup.
In a split second, fully several hundreds of ancient characters integrated into the Era Divine Formation.
"Fang Han, you are so malignant, I will obliterate your Era Gate!" Hua Tiandu was so frustrated he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He had cultivated bitterly for many years, his magic power elevating to the peak of the nineteen epochs, originally thinking he could fight Fang Han. Never did he anticipate that he was still not Fang Han's match and was defeated with a single palm strike.
Burning with rage, he also harbored doubts in his heart: "Why is Fang Han this strong! Why?"
However, he knew now was not the time for anger. Making a prompt decision, he raised his palm, instantly concentrating all his magic power, and creating a diversion in the east while attacking the west, blasted towards the Realm of Yuan.
"Great Destiny Art! Omnipotent!"
Inside the Realm of Yuan, Fang Qingxue and all the experts almost instantly felt this surge of power. Readily mobilizing their magic power, they clashed in return. A long river of destiny converged with the ocean of eternal life, crashing against Hua Tiandu's magic power.
With a massive boom.
The Realm of Yuan shuddered slightly, dissolving Hua Tiandu's magic power into nothingness.
"Die! The entire Era Gate, be eradicated! Immortal King of Affection and Loyalty, why haven't you struck yet? Together, let us obliterate the Era Gate and then execute Fang Han." Hua Tiandu went thoroughly mad, unexpectedly beginning to ally with Ying Tianqing.
His body condensed once again, unleashing the most ferocious attack upon the Realm of Yuan.
Ying Tianqing's face also changed. He continuously delivered two punches; one punch turned into a universe, and one punch turned into a starry river. Inside the universe was the character 'Affection', and inside the starry river was the character 'Loyalty'.
These two characters were exceptionally terrifying; affection and loyalty were like mountains, heavy enough to crush the immemorial era.
"Hmph! Just you all, attempting to destroy my Realm of Yuan. God of Eternal Life!" Almost without a second thought, deeply embedded within the great net of eternal life qi ocean, Fang Han began to activate his divine power.
Rumble!
Gods of Eternal Life numerous as the sands of the Ganges rushed out, reaching the front of Ying Tianqing's grand barrier, and detonated immediately. The divine bodies of these Gods of Eternal Life were enormous, each one measuring a light-year in length. The power of their explosion was comparable to the self-detonation of a fifteen epoch Heavenly Lord.
Immediately, the destructive force tore open Ying Tianqing's barrier.
With a movement of his body, Fang Han appeared beside Ying Tianqing with a "swish," and slammed his palm down.
Before Ying Tianqing could even react, his head blasted apart, turning into fragments.
