"Jidu Law King," an existence that dominated a planet in the outer domains, established a sect, and possessed Golden Core disciples, even disciples who were formidable experts with Heaven and Earth Dharmas at the ninth tier of the Mystical Realm, was actually dragged into the Gates of Avici under the sneak attack of Fang Han and Fang Qingxue, two Mystical Realm experts.
A mass of demonic light flashed unceasingly. After the Jidu Law King was submerged into the Yellow Springs Diagram, all magic power fluctuations completely dissipated.
The Yellow Springs Diagram was a peerless-grade Dao Weapon. Although its true might could not be exerted right now, its power was still capable of suppressing an Eternal Giant. When Ruyizi utilized Heaven and Earth Share the Same Lifespan to self-detonate his Heaven and Earth Dharma inside it, it was not damaged in the slightest. The Jidu Law King's strength was not as formidable as Ruyizi's; once dragged into the Yellow Springs Diagram, there was absolutely no possibility of him escaping.
The surrounding Jidu Divine Mist rotated ceaselessly, but its momentum had weakened considerably.
"What is going on? Did Patriarch Jidu drill into that low-grade Dao Weapon?"
"That is definitely the case. Patriarch Jidu has boundless magic power. Right now, he is certainly operating a mystical power to enter the deep core of this Dao Weapon to refine it."
"That pair of wandering rogue cultivators… they couldn't have been killed by the Patriarch already, right?"
"That's impossible. The Patriarch said he would reward the woman to us."
Within the spatial domain of the Jidu Divine Mist, several Golden Core disciples, eternal minor giants who controlled the hubs of the grand array, saw the Jidu Law King just appear and capture Fang Han and Fang Qingxue, the wandering rogue cultivator couple, with a force that crushed like Mount Tai. But suddenly, all his magic power vanished. Inside the Jidu Divine Mist, only a mass of demonic fog was left rotating endlessly. Within the demonic fog, a picture diagram could be faintly seen, though not clearly.
None of them dared to approach; they merely followed orders to catalyze the divine mist, tightly enveloping this mass of demonic fog.
Only one of the leaders, the formidable expert who had cultivated to the ninth tier of the Mystical Realm, the Heaven and Earth Dharma stage, seemed to feel something was off. This expert was the Jidu Patriarch's eldest disciple, named Luo He. Having cultivated to his realm, he naturally sensed the obscure fate of heaven and earth.
However, his magic power was not profound after all. Although he vaguely felt danger in his heart, he could not abandon his post without authorization.
He was controlling the core array within the Jidu Divine Mist. If he left without authorization, the Jidu Law King would let him know what true pain was.
All the disciples of "Jidu Star" were at their respective posts at this moment, fully focused on the changes in the mass of demonic clouds within the Jidu Divine Mist. They were all fantasizing about how, after the Jidu Law King acquired this low-grade Dao Weapon, his strength would massively increase, and in a joyous mood, he would reward them with medicinal pills refined from Immortal Realm spiritual energy. Concurrently, they fantasized about how, in the future, the power of Jidu Star would expand, allowing them to swallow the powers of several other stars. Then their authority would be even greater, and they would control even more resources.
Yet at this moment, inside the Yellow Springs Diagram, an entirely different turn of events was occurring.
"Jidu Law King, you had better stop struggling. This is within the number one supreme treasure of the demonic path, the Yellow Springs Diagram. The Yellow Springs Diagram, you should know of it, right? A peerless-grade Dao Weapon. Even if you self-detonate your Heaven and Earth Dharma, it will be of absolutely no use."
Fang Han looked at the "Jidu Law King," who was struggling bitterly within the "Gates of Avici," and could not help but sneer repeatedly. A wave of magic power stimulated over; the powerful mental intent caused all the divine sense of the "Jidu Law King" to vibrate.
The "Jidu Law King" shrank his body, and his fate Heaven and Earth Dharma transformed into sixty-six rings of light, coiling behind his head. Layer upon layer, a formidable wave of spatial energy pushed all the Avici Demonic Qi away, temporarily protecting himself.
"Exactly who are you people? The Yellow Springs Diagram? You are people from the Xuanhuang Great World… no, that's not right. You are Fang Han! The Fang Han who subjugated Daoist Mu and, a few months ago, killed the Eternal Giant Ruyizi, the most famous outstanding talent in the Xuanhuang Great World."
Upon Realizing this, an expression of terror appeared on the Jidu Law King's face.
"Oh? Even an outer domain star cultivator like you knows my name? It seems my, Fang Han's, prestige has truly spread far and wide. Jidu Law King, since you know it is me, then quickly be subjugated by me. Just like Daoist Mu, I guarantee that in the future, you will definitely break through to the realm of the Undying Body. If you do not convert to me, you will never be able to cultivate to the Undying Body realm."
Fang Han flicked his fingers, his demeanor composed.
Although the Jidu Law King was formidable, he was far inferior to Ruyizi, and currently had no Dao Weapon on him. Fang Han naturally had the confidence to subjugate him in one fell swoop.
"I am an Eternal Giant, of the Longevity Mystic Realm! I have experienced countless years of cultivation! I would rather self-destruct than submit to you!"
A fierce and sharp light manifested in the Jidu Law King's eagle eyes. His hands clawed consecutively, and massive swaths of spatial lightning condensed. His attack was a thunderbolt; streaks of pitch-black cutting talismans sliced toward Fang Han.
It was the "Great Cutting Technique" again.
"A pearl of a grain of rice also dares to emit brilliance." Fang Qingxue said coldly: "Since you are unwilling to be subjugated, I will kill you. This Great Chaos Lightning Sword and the Imperishable Lightning Talisman coiled upon it form a top-grade Dao Weapon that has birthed world power. It was this exact precious sword that slew Ruyizi. Now it seems I will have to use you to sacrifice to the sword."
As she spoke, she flicked her fingers, and sword qi crisscrossed. With a single sweeping strike, all the "Great Cutting Technique" attacks issued by the Jidu Law King were disintegrated. Subsequently, that sword qi cleaved open the Jidu Law King's protective astral qi and his sixty-six mystical power halos.
"No!"
The Jidu Law King felt that if this sword strike landed, not only would all his mystical powers disintegrate, but his physical flesh would also be thoroughly slaughtered. Thousands of years of bitter cultivation and various fortuitous encounters would all be destroyed in one morning.
One must know, anyone who cultivated to the Longevity Mystic Realm was definitely a powerhouse born with grand destiny. The Jidu Law King did not want to die; he deeply did not want to die.
Having attained longevity, with ten thousand years of lifespan, who would want to die?
"Since you do not want to die, then be subjugated by me. On one side is the Everlasting Demon Region, on the other is the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss; make the choice yourself." Fang Han seized this opportunity and attacked suddenly. His fate Heaven and Earth Dharma flew out. With two thousand hands and two thousand eyes being continuously catalyzed, the two grand mental domains manifested once more.
Furthermore, this time, the two grand mental domains, the "Everlasting Demon Region" and the "Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss," were endlessly absorbing the Avici Demonic Qi and the Buddha light from the Eight Drones Pagoda.
After absorbing them, these two grand mental domains became increasingly clear, twisting and vibrating, affecting the Jidu Law King's spirit.
"Ah! Ah! Ah…" The Jidu Law King was instantly enveloped. One moment, the Everlasting Demon Region manifested in his mind; the next, it seemed as if he had entered the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. From hell to heaven, and from heaven to hell.
Just as the Jidu Law King's spirit fell into chaos, pfft! Fang Han opened his mouth and spewed out a mouthful of golden blood. This golden blood abruptly emitted a zen light; it was the Great Passage Zen Light, illuminating the body of the Jidu Law King.
Instantly, the Jidu Law King's entire body jolted, and an expression of devout conversion appeared on his face.
Fang Han actually intended to use the Great Passage Zen Light to forcefully convert the Jidu Law King and make him submit.
"He actually intends to forcibly convert him! One must know that this Great Passage Zen Light can only convert existences of a lower realm than oneself. Could it be that after cultivating the two grand mental domains, Fang Han has become this formidable?"
Daoist Mu had already fully catalyzed the Eight Drones Pagoda, suspending it above the Jidu Law King's head. If the Jidu Law King made even the slightest unusual movement, it would immediately crush down.
Now, the "Eight Drones Furnace" and the main tower body of the Blood Dragon Crystal Mountain Peak within the Eight Drones Pagoda had both become Dao Weapons. Their power had increased several times over. Under Daoist Mu's urging, they could directly defeat the Jidu Law King.
After Daoist Mu cultivated the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Art, absorbed the vital energy from the World Tree, obtained the God King's body, and acquired a trace of world power, now having refined one of Ruyizi's Pure Yang Heaven and Earth Dharmas, his cultivation had skyrocketed drastically. He was merely one step away from comprehending the Undying Body.
Now, in a one-on-one fight, the Jidu Law King would not be Daoist Mu's opponent.
Therefore, with this suppression, the Jidu Law King was pinned down completely.
However, suppressing the Jidu Law King was easy, but converting him was impossible. The Great Passage Zen Light could only convert existences of a lower realm than oneself, unless the Jidu Law King opened his heart.
But the Jidu Law King was incomparably ferocious and possessed a will that would never yield. He would rather self-destruct than submit; such an existence was practically destined to be unconversable.
Yet Fang Han, currently utilizing the two grand mental domains—the Everlasting Demon Region and the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss alternately—twisted the Jidu Law King's spirit, throwing his spiritual intellect into chaos, and then sacrificed the Great Passage Zen Light, slowly converting him.
Witnessing this phenomenon, Daoist Mu was left dumbfounded.
This completely violated his common sense regarding cultivation.
"He can forcibly convert him, if this goes on, wouldn't that be disastrous? However, this Heaven and Earth Dharma of Fang Han's with two thousand hands and two thousand eyes… I always feel it is far too inconceivable. In all records, there has never been such a phenomenon of unifying Buddha and Demon. Is it truly because of the power of the Yellow Springs Diagram and the Land of Five Elements Spirit Talisman? Or is there some other profound secret?"
Daoist Mu pondered in his heart.
"Fang Han, you want to convert me, we are totally irreconcilable!"
In that instant, the original fierce and sharp expression returned to the Jidu Law King's face. He was an Eternal Giant after all, recovering his true nature in that split second.
He maneuvered his fate Heaven and Earth Dharma, the Jidu Heavenly Sword Primal Spirit, preparing to self-detonate.
"Seeking death!"
Fang Han's eyes abruptly snapped open, and the light from his two thousand eyes intensified to an unimaginable degree. Boundless Avici Demonic Qi was gathered and projected once more into the mental space of the "Everlasting Demon Region," ruthlessly shrouding the Jidu Law King.
Instantly, the Jidu Law King's fate Heaven and Earth Dharma began to scatter again, actually rendering him unable to catalyze his essence qi to self-detonate.
Avici Demonic Qi was fundamentally an existence that could prevent the self-detonation of Golden Cores and Heaven and Earth Dharmas. And Fang Han's mental domain, the Everlasting Demon Region, had the effect of amplifying the might of the Avici Demonic Qi. This strike directly rendered the Jidu Law King incapable of self-detonation. He could only accept eternal, endless torment.
"Ruyizi could self-detonate, but you cannot. I have already cultivated the mental domain of the Everlasting Demon Region. Trapped within it, self-detonation is impossible for you. Since you are unwilling to be subjugated by me, I have plenty of time to thoroughly convert you."
Fang Han sneered repeatedly, once again executing the "Great Passage Zen Light" to illuminate him.
One hour later, a devout expression manifested on the Jidu Law King's face once more.
However, two hours later, he recovered his true nature again, fierce and vicious.
Every time Fang Han was just a tiny bit away from converting him, his true nature deep within his heart would be thoroughly stimulated. This was the strength of an Eternal Giant.
