"Great! Bullying people is what I like most. Such a powerful treasure like the Sun and Moon Essence Wheels will definitely be very comfortable to activate." Star Cloud Baby opened his hazy eyes. His cultivation had also advanced greatly, but he completely failed to absorb a Pure Yang Heaven and Earth Dharma entirely, absorbing less than one hundredth of it.
Even so, he was on the verge of breaking through to the sixth tier of the Mystical Realm, the Unity Realm, to condense a "Fate Spirit Talisman."
Now that Fang Han possessed the Great Chaos Lightning Sword and had even birthed world power, the lethality of this top-grade Dao Weapon with the potential of a peerless-grade Dao Weapon was unfathomably many times more formidable than the Sun and Moon Essence Wheels. Therefore, the might of this pair of Sun and Moon Essence Wheels was not that significant to Fang Han anymore.
Moreover, the tower body of the Eight Drones Pagoda had itself become a Dao Weapon, needing no protection.
Leaving them on Samsara Peak to hold down the fort was perfectly fine. Of course, in doing so, the Eight Drones Pagoda would lack two major artifact spirits praying day and night, and the prayer power would decrease significantly, but Fang Han did not take these matters to heart.
Prayer power would slowly accumulate in the future.
"Yan? Come out. Having devoured the pure yang energy of the Nine Palaces Grand Golden Tower and swallowed another Pure Yang Heaven and Earth Dharma, can you completely repair the Yellow Springs Diagram and evolve the Reincarnation Disk?"
After arranging everything, Fang Han summoned Yan.
An immemorial heavenly dragon drilled out from the Yellow Springs Diagram, emanating a majestic, vast, and mysterious aura. Yan's aura had grown much stronger, and layers of brilliant light radiated from its body, making it look like a dragon of light. Now, relying solely on Yan's own power, it could defeat all experts at the tenth tier of the Mystical Realm, Defying Heaven and Changing Fate.
"The Reincarnation Disk? How could it be that easy? One Pure Yang Heaven and Earth Dharma is fundamentally insufficient to evolve it. Even if all eight fate Heaven and Earth Dharmas were devoured by me, it would still be impossible. Only with eight hundred, or eight thousand, could a shred of the Reincarnation Disk's might be slightly mobilized."
Yan shook its head: "The Yellow Springs Diagram is a peerless-grade Dao Weapon. The final evolution of the Reincarnation Disk must be stimulated by an expert who has cultivated world power. Or, only when you cultivate your own world and stimulate the power within it can it truly metamorphose and restore the existence of my peak state. In the end, the might of the Yellow Springs Diagram will definitely surpass the Myriad Stars Sect's Immemorial Meteorite, the Yuhua Sect's Yuhua Heavenly Palace, and even the Linglong Blessed Land's Mount Sumeru."
"Then since you absorbed a Pure Yang Heaven and Earth Dharma, you must have at least gained some abilities, right?" Fang Han asked.
"Abilities have naturally increased by quite a lot. I can now urge the Bridge of Helplessness to slightly pierce through time and space to shuttle across. However, every shuttle consumes a considerable amount of pure yang power. It cannot be used frequently. Here is the wreckage of the Nine Palaces Grand Golden Tower. The materials within it are extremely rare Profound Heaven Golden Essence, which can help you continue tempering the Eight Drones Pagoda."
As Yan spoke, it spat out nine small golden towers.
"Not bad, not bad. The materials of the Nine Palaces Grand Golden Tower are extremely suitable for condensing the two slaughter artifacts, the Sky-Splitting Halberd and the Bright King Axe." Fang Han casual grabbed, and these nine small golden towers thoroughly exploded, transforming into numerous grand arrays that continuously changed shape and merged into the Sky-Splitting Halberd and the Bright King Axe within the Eight Drones Pagoda.
Instantly, these two primarily offensive treasures radiated brilliance.
Now, Fang Han's artifact refinement techniques had truly reached a point of pure mastery. With a casual move following the secrets in the "Heavenly Dragon Secret Manual," he transformed the golden towers of the Nine Palaces into grand arrays suitable for the Sky-Splitting Halberd and the Bright King Axe.
However, to make these two treasures advance into Dao Weapons, a massive amount of fortuitous encounters would be needed, or one would have to slay an Eternal Giant like Ruyizi and obtain a Dao Weapon.
These two were slaughter artifacts; for their transformation, materials and vital energy were especially required in large quantities.
"Senior Sister Qingxue, everything is prepared. Let us head to Dragonwood Star. I wonder if Senior Sister Qingxue has enough vital energy to support the magic power for flying to Dragonwood Star? If not, we can join hands and link our magic power. I have a treasure that can continuously absorb Immortal Realm vital energy." Fang Han stood up.
"Oh? I have long known that you possessed such a miraculous treasure. What exactly is it? But linking magic power is unnecessary. I obtained Ruyizi's two Pure Yang Heaven and Earth Dharmas, and I have only refined one so far. The other one is more than enough to support my flight for three to five years."
A Pure Yang Heaven and Earth Dharma required an Eternal Giant to condense for hundreds of years. Even if Fang Qingxue flew non-stop for five years, it might not necessarily be entirely consumed.
Thus, that Pure Yang Heaven and Earth Dharma had now become her magic power reserve.
"Let's go! We can talk as we move. With you and me joining forces—the Imperishable Lightning Talisman, the Great Chaos Lightning Sword, the Yellow Springs Diagram, and the Eight Drones Pagoda combined—killing Daoist Dragon will be like killing a dog." Fang Han took to the air, yet his body hid within a shroud of chaotic energy, silently merging into the air. In an instant, he exited Samsara Peak and leaped into the nine heavens astral wind layer, more than one hundred thousand zhang high.
Just as he paused, three blinks of an eye later, Fang Qingxue caught up.
"Fang Han, your White Emperor Golden Sovereign Slash movement technique is truly fast. Even using the Heavens Lightning Evasion, I cannot catch up to you." Fang Qingxue sighed softly. She had intended to compare speed with Fang Han, but was still slower by the time of three eye blinks. Only a mere one hundred thousand zhang, and she was already three blinks slower. If the distance were one hundred thousand li, what would happen?
"My White Emperor Golden Sovereign Slash is nothing much. The Great Shifting Technique is what is truly formidable." Fang Han thought of the God Emperor Hentian's Great Shifting Technique. A single shift covered one hundred and eight thousand li. If he knew this Dao technique among the Three Thousand Great Daos right now, heading to Dragonwood Star would be so much more convenient.
During combat, God Emperor Hentian displayed three types of mystical powers from the Three Thousand Great Daos: first was the Great Shifting Technique, second was the Great Sealing Technique, and third was the Great Cursing Technique. Among them, the Great Shifting Technique was the fastest and the best method for traveling. The Great Sealing Technique failed to seal the Human Emperor Pen, so its specific might could not be seen, while the Great Cursing Technique was profoundly mysterious, as both Fang Han and Yan Shuiyi fell victim to it.
If he learned all three of these Dao techniques, Fang Han knew his strength would definitively increase by another level.
"Wait until I cultivate into an Eternal Giant, step into the Longevity Mystic Realm, further develop the various wondrous uses of the Yellow Springs Diagram, and fully refine the Eight Drones Pagoda. Then I will go back to Fangs Island to seek trouble with that God Emperor Hentian. That grand array condensed from the Taotie's teeth, I must get my hands on it to guard my Samsara Peak. Otherwise, if the God Race comes to attack, I fear the first thing destroyed will be my Samsara Peak. Of course, refining the Taotie teeth into the Eight Drones Pagoda is also a good choice."
"Senior Sister Qingxue, it is better for us to link our magic power. That way, we will fly a bit faster. I haven't even utilized my maximum speed yet." Fang Han glanced at Fang Qingxue.
"Your speed is indeed faster than mine. For the sake of making haste, we can only do so." Fang Qingxue waved her hand, approached Fang Han, and released a ring of lightning light that looped around him. With their magic power linked, swish, they flew out of the nine heavens astral winds and the atmospheric layer, reaching into the vast outer space.
Within two to three hours, the two of them had completely left the Xuanhuang Great World, reaching a distance of a million li away.
"This is my first time truly flying out into outer space and leaving the Xuanhuang Great World, only now realizing the vastness of heaven and earth. No wonder one cannot traverse the starry sky at all before reaching the Longevity Mystic Realm, otherwise magic power could not keep up."
While flying through the void of space, Fang Han would occasionally see massive meteorites flying and crashing over. However, he did not dodge. He simply channeled his magic power and sent a shockwave outward; whatever meteorite it was, it would be directly blasted into powder. Some meteorites contained treasures like mysterious iron, true crystals… those treasures were all entirely absorbed by the Great Devouring Technique to nourish Fang Han's own fate Heaven and Earth Dharma.
If it were an ordinary expert, they would still have to dodge the impact of these meteorites while flying.
These meteorites were vastly more ferocious than the assassinations of flying swords.
"Indeed, the starry sky is vast. Without reaching the Longevity Mystic Realm, where one can absorb Immortal Realm vital energy, one simply cannot cross it; otherwise, they would die from exhaustion, and moreover, there is nowhere to rest. While flying on the surface of the Xuanhuang Great World, if magic power is depleted, one can still find a place to rest and recover. But getting tired in outer space leaves no possibility of resting, lest one be crushed to death by a meteorite. There is also the possibility of being swallowed by a Heavenly Demon. The Heavenly Demons in outer space are far more numerous than the Heavenly Demons in the Xuanhuang Great World."
While flying, Fang Qingxue explained to Fang Han, and simultaneously utilized lightning energy to shatter swaths of meteorite clusters crashing toward them from the front.
Some meteorites generated lightning fire as they rubbed against each other.
"Senior Sister Qingxue, cultivate to the Longevity Mystic Realm quickly. That way, you can assist me in opening the Yellow Springs Treasury in the future to obtain the Great Reincarnation Technique." Fang Han chatted idly as he flew with all his might.
"It shouldn't be too far away. I believe in the near future, while my lifespan has yet to run out, I can definitely cultivate it. But I still have you to thank. If you had not combined the Great Chaos Lightning Sword with my Imperishable Lightning Talisman and birthed world power, I could not have stepped into the tenth tier of the Mystical Realm. And this time, you distributed two Heaven and Earth Dharmas to me. After refining one, I have already cultivated to the peak of the tenth tier of the Mystical Realm." Fang Qingxue said: "Let us make haste with all our strength, we will talk more when we reach Dragonwood Star."
"Alright!"
Fang Han raised his speed once again.
Countless meteorites were smashed to pieces by his impact, trailing a thousand-li "wave" through space!
Just three full days after Fang Han and Fang Qingxue left the Yuhua Sect, on a certain night, suddenly, a subtle streak of starlight actually descended from the nine heavens, silently seeping into the "Zidian Peak" where Fang Qingxue resided. Subsequently, this subtle starlight actually condensed into a human form.
This human form was a man with a flawless physique, a handsome countenance, and a composed demeanor, but harboring an evil smile upon his face.
This man circled around Zidian Peak, appearing to be searching for something. There were many people on Zidian Peak, yet not a single one noticed him, as if he were moving in an alternate parallel space.
"Where is Fang Qingxue? Where is Fang Qingxue? Why isn't she on Zidian Peak? I have achieved success in my cultivation this time, found out that she is the reincarnation of the Lightning Mother, and specially rushed over from the Wuji Star Palace to marry her and bring her back to the palace. As long as I take her back to my palace and perform dual cultivation with her, I can cultivate my Constellation Lightning Technique to an unparalleled degree, thoroughly transforming the Myriad Stars Limitless Book into the Great Stellar Technique."
This man spun around, letting out a cold voice.
