The person who arrived was actually the current first true disciple of the Taiyi Sect.
Yan Shuiyi, ranked second on the Longevity Candidate List. An existence infinitely close to the Longevity Secret Realm. It was said that this woman had stepped into the tenth level of supernatural powers, Defying the Heavens and Changing Fate, many years ago. Her magic power was unfathomably profound, she possessed endless magical treasures, and even had Dao Artifacts. Her strength was even above Hua Tiandu's.
Fang Han also could never imagine why, given Hua Tiandu's fierce and mighty character who could step into the Longevity Secret Realm and become an eternal giant at any time, there was an even more formidable figure than him in the Supernatural Power Secret Realm. Now he finally understood. Why Yan Shuiyi was still ranked above Hua Tiandu.
Just this single move, evolving a void environment within the "Nine Heavens Astral Wind" that bordered between reality and illusion, was already practically a method of the "Longevity Secret Realm."
Furthermore, Fang Han also felt a continuous power from this person, towering like rolling mountains, hazy like mist and water. Fang Han tried his best to circulate his eyesight, yet he actually could not clearly see what this person's facial features looked like.
"Is it strange? This 'Mist and Water Realm' is transformed by my second primal spirit. My second primal spirit is a precious pearl called the 'Ocean Divine Pearl,' a Dao Artifact magical treasure left behind by the ancient God of Water, successfully cultivated by me using the method of an incarnation outside the body. It turned into my second primal spirit. You are trapped inside it and cannot get out. I am a wisp of spiritual sentience of the ancient God of Water reincarnated, just like your Feathered Transformation Sect's Fang Qingxue. However, she is the spirit of the Lightning Mother, and I am the spirit of the God of Water. You probably know what kind of existence I am now?"
Yan Shuiyi finally revealed her form.
Wearing a magic robe, like mist and like water, her face was unworldly, like a lotus flower in clear water. Especially between her eyebrows, there was a faint water mark, which added even more to her mystery.
Upon looking at this person, it was clear she was not a cultivator formed in the secular world, but an ancient natural god reincarnated as a human. There was not a single trace of secular aura on her body, fundamentally different from human aura.
Fang Han even felt that this woman was an "alien species," not a human.
Although Fang Qingxue was claimed to be the reincarnation of the "Lightning Mother," she still had a thick human aura on her body, but this woman had absolutely no human aura left. It was simply terrifying. Ancient natural gods were different from the God Race.
Natural gods were powerful existences born from the vital energy of heaven and earth after countless years and months. Like the Lightning Emperor, Lightning Mother, God of Water, and even the Mountain God Pearl Fang Han saw at the auction last time, which was also a true spirit of nature, though still in the process of gestation. If it underwent another hundred million years of gestation, it would transform into a Mountain God.
Actually, the White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Turtle, and Soaring Snake in the Five Elements Land were also true spirits of nature.
However, they were not powerful enough yet to be called gods of nature.
If it were a true god of nature, a White Tiger, then it could be called the White Tiger God. Or the Gengjin God. Equivalent to a paramount figure in the Longevity Secret Realm, let alone Fang Han refining it, he would probably be killed with a single strike.
If Fang Han's Five Emperors Great Demon Supernatural Power was cultivated to its highest realm, then the White Emperor, Metal Sovereign, Red Emperor, Fire Emperor… would also transform into powerful existences similar to natural gods. At that time, it would truly dominate the innate. The five elements and ten directions would all be in his grasp.
This kind of natural god had an extraordinary innate talent. If someone were its reincarnated body, their cultivation speed would be inconceivably fast. Fang Qingxue was a typical example. The reincarnated body of the ancient Lightning Mother, even Hua Tiandu was unwilling to provoke her.
And now, Yan Shuiyi was even more powerful than Fang Qingxue!
"The Ocean Divine Pearl, an existence comparable to the Indestructible Lightning Talisman. I did not expect that you are actually a wisp of spiritual sentience of the ancient God of Water reincarnated. A natural god! And you cultivated the Ocean Divine Pearl into your second primal spirit. No wonder you have such powerful magic power. Coming to find me this time, do you want to cross blows with me? You should know. Even your Taiyi Sect's Supreme Emperor Heaven could not kill me."
Fang Han narrowed his eyes into slits.
"This I know, but Lord Supreme Emperor Heaven was obstructed by the ancient Demon Venerable. I am much clearer about the secrets of the Five Elements Land than you are. Fang Han. The ancient Demon Venerable cannot use magic power to come to the Xuanhuang Great World because the barbaric divine temple still exists. However, coming to find you this time is not to cross blows with you. You and I have no enmity and no grievance, and Hua Tiandu's hatred with you has nothing to do with me. But, for you to take the Golden Core of our Taiyi Sect disciple as a birthday gift for Immortal Venerable Linglong, this is absolutely not allowed. I came today to make a deal with you. If you return the Golden Core of the Taiyi Sect disciple to me, I can give you a Dao Artifact, how about it?"
Yan Shuiyi's voice was ethereal. Her clear water lotus-like face had not the slightest expression, yet it was not cold, but rather light clouds and gentle breeze, hazy mist and water. No one could guess what she was thinking deep in her heart at this moment.
"One Dao Artifact in exchange for Song Weiyi's Golden Core? This is indeed a cost-effective act. However, why does it seem to me that you initially prepared to forcefully snatch it, but seeing that I actually cultivated into a Golden Core, you immediately changed your mind. You probably don't know that now that I have cultivated into a Golden Core and refined the Ghost Emperor's Nine Ghost Primal Spirits, the forcefulness of my magic power is already the number one person in the Supernatural Power Secret Realm! As long as you do not break through to the Longevity Secret Realm, you will never be my opponent."
Fang Han's body shook, standing in the sky with the steps of a dragon and a tiger. Like a giant beast, he revealed his sharp claws and teeth.
"The number one person in the Supernatural Power Secret Realm, is not quite like that." Yan Shuiyi shook her head. There was no cold ridicule or hot irony; it was as if she were seriously stating a fact: "我 have my natal Heaven and Earth Dharma Characteristic, the Natural Disaster Primal Spirit. And also my second primal spirit, the Ocean Divine Pearl. My magic power is not beneath yours. Although the Ghost Emperor is an expert, he is not my opponent. I only need to utilize an incarnation to beat him into flying ash and annihilation. The only thing I have misgivings about you is the Five Emperors Great Demon Supernatural Power you cultivate. Although your current cultivation is only at the Golden Core, this supernatural power is not so easily broken. So if I fight with you, although my chances of winning are seventy percent, I might also suffer minor injuries, or forfeit an incarnation, in order to thoroughly suppress you. Right now is the most critical moment of my cultivation towards the Longevity Secret Realm. I am unwilling to get injured and affect my cultivation, which is why I took out a Dao Artifact to exchange for Junior Brother Song Weiyi's Golden Core."
As she spoke, on Yan Shuiyi's fingertip, a small green sword appeared. Above this green sword, a stream of green cloud qi rose up, condensing into a girl in green clothes, graceful and elegant. This was actually the artifact spirit of this green sword.
This small green sword was actually also a Low-grade Dao Artifact. The power of the graceful girl in green clothes was not beneath the King of Blood Night.
"This is…" Fang Han flicked his fingers.
"This is the rare Green Blood Gentle Water Sword in heaven and earth. Although the elder of the Blood Shadow Demonic Sect, Old Monster Green Blood, refined a Green Blood Sword, that is only a Peerless Precious Artifact, far unable to compare with this sword. Especially, this sword can form a pair with your demonic saber Blood Firmament. The demonic saber Blood Firmament was cultivated by a formidable figure among the Heavenly Demons using blood sacrifices. It is a supreme treasure of slaughter, resilient, fierce, and violent. While my sword is utmost gentleness. When the two artifact spirits dual cultivate and refine and fuse with each other. Its might will be boundless. Its value is much greater than that of a Golden Core. Moreover, after the exchange, your grievances with our Taiyi Sect will be written off at one stroke. The disciples and elders of our Taiyi Sect will no longer look for trouble with you. What, are you unwilling to exchange?"
Yan Shuiyi stroked this Green Blood Gentle Water Sword and spoke quietly. She did not use any magic power to oppress; it was purely a transaction.
The demonic saber Blood Firmament on Fang Han's body trembled.
"What is it? King of Blood Night?" Fang Han asked.
"The artifact spirit of this Green Blood Gentle Cloud Sword indeed complements me. If we can dual cultivate, one saber and one sword, we can definitely adopt each other's strong points while overcoming weak points. Shortening the time for me to advance into a Mid-grade Dao Artifact. If I dual cultivate with this Green Blood Gentle Water Sword and combine forces, we will be able to completely contend with Hua Tiandu's Pan Wu Divine Sword."
The King of Blood Night seemed to become impatient with lust.
Seeing the artifact spirit of the graceful girl in green clothes, he could not help but roar.
"I don't think she has such good intentions; just don't get sucked dry." Fang Han chuckled and said to Yan Shuiyi: "This sword indeed can match as a pair with my demonic saber Blood Firmament. Its value is also much higher than a Golden Core. You are indeed the first true disciple of the Taiyi Sect, to have so many Dao Artifacts on hand. However…"
"However what?" Yan Shuiyi asked with an unmoved expression.
"However, if I give the Taiyi Sect's Golden Core to Immortal Venerable Linglong. Who knows how many benefits Immortal Venerable Linglong will give me?" Fang Han calculated: "Immortal Venerable Linglong's generosity is famous in the cultivation world. Now I also do not lack magical treasures; I only want to elevate my realm and cultivation to reach the Longevity Secret Realm as soon as possible. With Immortal Venerable Linglong's cultivation, how much guidance can she provide for my cultivation? This is something you cannot compare to."
"So you say? You are unwilling to exchange?" Yan Shuiyi shook her head and let out a sigh: "Why must it be like this? It is not easy for you and me to cultivate to this stage; where it is possible to let people off, one should spare them. Only then can one preserve longevity forever. With a character like yours, clinging obstinately to your course and being so greedy, you will encounter great trouble."
"My troubles are already numerous, so I don't care about this one more. But we can still make a deal; I don't want the Dao Artifact. If you can promise me a few conditions, I can actually return the Golden Core to the Taiyi Sect."
Fang Han said.
"What conditions, speak?"
"First, Hua Tiandu and I have a ten-year agreement, and a clash is imminent. You and Hua Tiandu have a marriage contract; on this point, we have hatred. In a transaction, I am very afraid you will plot against me. So, you must cancel your marriage contract with Hua Tiandu." Fang Han spoke with fervor and assurance.
"Cancel the marriage contract? It's not impossible." Yan Shuiyi was noncommittal, as if she didn't take this matter to heart: "My marriage contract with Hua Tiandu is nothing more than a transaction with him. Even if we marry. I will not truly dual cultivate with him and become Dao companions. On this point, you are actually doing me a favor, giving me an excuse. But as I see it, you stated the first, so there must be a second; why not state it together and let me hear it?"
"As for the second, how about you make a marriage contract with me?"
Fang Han's words shocked the heavens!
