The Kunpeng and Taotie, two great divine beasts, were still bitterly holding on.
However, they were at the end of their ropes. Now that Fang Han had freed up his methods to deal with them, they could only wait for death.
"Fang Han, Fang Han, do not kill us. We are willing to convert." The Kunpeng and Taotie, currently suppressed at the bottom of the Eight Divisions Pagoda and unable to move, saw Fang Han walk out and were immediately frightened to the point of trembling all over. "If you use the Great Pudu Technique to convert us, we can condense the Eight Divisions Pagoda for you. We can also condense the Thirty-Three Heavens Ultimate Treasure for you. Gathering the Thirty-Three Heavens Ultimate Treasure is an immense undertaking. We are divine beasts, highly skilled in various methods of refining magical treasures. If you convert us, the speed of condensing magical treasures will be countless times faster than you refining them yourself."
"Hmph, you two divine beasts, even at a time like this, you are still indulging in wishful thinking." Fang Han said coldly: "What magical treasures do I need? I have a Peerless Dao Artifact on me right now, what kind of magical treasure do I need to refine? Is it more formidable than a Peerless Dao Artifact? Furthermore, in order to capture you, I sacrificed a full hundred thousand years of lifespan. I must plunder the laws of time within your bodies to make my laws of time reach major completion. Then, I will break through the realm to reach the Longevity Fifth Tier, the Creation Realm, and condense immortal matter within my body. When the time comes, I can refine High-grade Dao Artifacts, and all my lifespan will be restored, and I will advance one step further. On what basis should I let you go?"
"Fang Han, you are so vicious!"
"Even in death, I will not let you refine me. The Kunpeng self-destructs, destroying heaven and earth!"
The Kunpeng roared, the essence blood within its body boiling. It attempted to self-destruct to break away from Fang Han.
"It is useless. Under my suppression, you dare to be so rampant. You simply do not know the meaning of death." Fang Han had a fierce look on his face. He activated the various divine abilities in his body, suddenly evoking the power of reincarnation within the Yellow Springs Diagram.
The shadow of the Disc of Reincarnation hovered over the heads of the Kunpeng and Taotie. With a slight rotation, it instantly shattered the bodies of these two divine beasts into pieces.
"Hand of the Heavens!"
Following that, Fang Han executed the "Great Firmament Technique". His palm grasped forward, palm shadows flying about. From within that exploding flesh and blood, he pulled out two cave heavens.
Within these two cave heavens, crystals of various spatial laws and temporal laws were constantly flowing. Inside these spaces, there were also several treasures condensing into form, and powerful divine abilities continuously operating upon the cave heavens.
"Good, very good! These two divine beasts each condensed ninety-nine divine abilities, all of which are supreme existences. Being swallowed by my Little Destiny Technique, it truly feels comfortable."
Divine beasts possessed long lifespans and violently breathed in and out vitality. Over endless periods of time, the divine abilities they cultivated were immensely numerous.
Whether it was the Kunpeng or the Taotie, both were experts at the Cosmic Light Realm who had condensed the laws of time. Casually devouring demon gods with an Undying Body or myths of the spatial laws was not difficult for them. Through years of plundering, they could learn all sorts of divine abilities in the heavens and the universe.
This was especially true for the Kunpeng.
The divine abilities inside the Kunpeng's body were all exceptionally formidable. Unfortunately, there were only some Three Thousand Great Daos, such as the Great Cutting Technique, Great Collapse Technique, and Great Devouring Technique, which Heavenly Demons frequently cultivated.
"Hmm? This divine ability, even the Little Destiny Technique cannot devour it. Could it be a divine ability similar to the Genesis of the Gods?" Just as Fang Han was devouring the divine abilities, suddenly, within the Kunpeng's body, there was one divine ability that incredibly could not be devoured by the Little Destiny Technique, resisting the power of destiny.
This divine ability was composed of thirty-three runes. Each rune intercommunicated with the Thirty-Three Heavens Ultimate Treasure, taking the shape of a ring, a sword, an axe, or a fork… The thirty-three runes formed thirty-three layers of space, appearing like a palatial pavilion made of runes. It looked like a world, yet also like the highest void manipulating creation.
"Thirty-Three Heavens Seal Formula. This was created by the Supreme of the Immortal Realm, the Good Fortune Immortal King, attempting to create something comparable to the Gate of Eternal Life. The existence of the Gate of Eternal Life in the Immortal Realm is a sharp sword hanging over the heads of all immortals, the source of all good fortune, and the hope for eternal life. Yet the Supreme of the Immortal Realm, the Good Fortune Immortal King, created a Thirty-Three Heavens, attempting to stand alongside the Gate of Eternal Life."
Fang Qingxue also felt the intent as Fang Han devoured the thirty-three runes, and such a passage of words couldn't help but flash through her mind.
"What? What is this Good Fortune Immortal King of the Immortal Realm?" Fang Han could not help but ask.
"I cannot remember either, but within the brand of my soul, this name has always existed." Fang Qingxue shook her head. "It's also quite strange, why would this Kunpeng possess the Thirty-Three Heavens Seal Formula? And it is its innate inheritance? It seems its ancestors descended from the Immortal Realm. The Immortal Realm indeed has many divine beasts."
This Thirty-Three Heavens Seal Formula was not learned by the Kunpeng; rather, this Kunpeng received it as an inheritance from its parents, learning it while still in the eggshell.
"This seal formula is just as marvelous as the Genesis of the Gods. I must hide it within my body alongside the Genesis of the Gods, to serve as a sure-kill technique to slay enemies in the future."
Fang Han hid this palatial pavilion formed by the thirty-three runes inside his body, standing opposite to the Genesis of the Gods. Instantly, his power surged wildly.
Moreover, amidst the Kunpeng's wails, all of its vitality turned into nourishment, entering Fang Han's bodily cave heaven.
The Taotie was the same. Its crystals of spatial laws and temporal laws also merged into Fang Han's cave heaven. In an instant, the laws of time within Fang Han's body reached major completion!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
How vast were the laws of time contained within the temporal law crystals of the Kunpeng and Taotie? They encompassed almost all the laws of time. Three thousand laws of time were all concealed within.
Both of these divine beasts were powerful existences at the peak of the Cosmic Light Realm with laws of time. After all the laws of time were obtained by Fang Han, within his cave heaven, those laws of time condensed into a temporal crystal the size of a fist!
This temporal crystal was constructed from three thousand laws. It contained extraordinarily abundant power of time and the ultimate profound meaning of the laws of time, allowing Fang Han to adjust the time within his cave heaven at will.
And the crystal walls of Fang Han's own cave heaven also began to squirm spiritually. It resembled a massive crystal placenta, brewing a peerless figure to emerge.
This was the precursor to advancing to the "Creation Realm".
Fang Han's entire cave heaven underwent an earth-shaking transformation. His power also increased to a terrifying degree, reaching above one hundred billion.
His lifespan also slowly increased. Although it was not completely recovered, it had increased by tens of thousands of years.
"I need to enter seclusion! Absolute seclusion! To turn the laws of this Kunpeng and Taotie entirely into my own. To comprehensively comprehend the laws of time; one hour equals one hundred years! I want to enter seclusion for thousands of years, ten thousand years! I hope to take a step further and reach the Creation Realm! Immortal pills! Come out for me, immortal pills from the Tianwu Treasure! Come out!"
The Kunpeng and Taotie completely disappeared, thoroughly lacking even a single brand left in the universe, having become profound accumulations within Fang Han's body. Right now, a massive amount of essence qi was flowing inside Fang Han's body. He could not refine all this essence qi. The power of the two divine beasts was simply too great and could not be completely refined and converted into his own power unless he entered seclusion to utterly convert those laws of time into his own comprehension.
Fang Han's intent immediately delved into the deepest part of the Spoon of the Barren God, the second layer, where the immortal pills were stored. At the same time, he also permeated the intent of the Human Emperor Pen, as well as the intents of Fang Qingxue and Feng Yaoguang, into it.
"There are actually this many immortal pills! Heaven-grade Peerless Pills, High-grade Pills, as numerous as sand!" Fang Qingxue was shocked. She looked at the pill storage space within the Spoon of the Barren God and was overwhelmed. The Human Emperor Pen, on the other hand, was able to maintain his composure, though he also nodded repeatedly: "Not bad, not bad. To think that Immortal Venerable Panwu refined this many immortal pills; his personal strength is indeed at the cultivation level of a Heavenly Lord. Fang Han, your lifespan suffered an immense loss, but somewhere over there is an immortal pill called the Ancestor Immortal Supreme Pill. It is condensed from a trace of the original life essence of a figure at the Ancestor Immortal level. An Ancestor Immortal is a higher-level immortal than a Golden Immortal, extremely formidable. The immortal pill refined from a trace of his original life essence can restore tens of thousands of years of your lifespan."
"Is that so?" Fang Han was overjoyed. Reaching out to grasp, he pulled that pill down from the air.
That pill was sealed inside a crystal gourd. Within this crystal gourd, there seemed to be another heaven and earth. Inside was an ancient plum blossom grove, where an imposing, Daoist-clad elderly man wearing a high hat and strange robes was admiring the plums within the sea of plum blossoms, seemingly composing poems and couplets.
With one look from his eyes, Fang Han saw through it. This ancient plum grove and the elderly man in high hat and strange robes were all transformations of a pill. The power of this pill was exceedingly vast; it seemed like a miniature planet completely composed of medicinal ingredients. The medicinal fragrance from those ingredients manifested an intent capable of extending lifespan everywhere.
Suddenly, when Fang Han's eyes focused on this pill, the Daoist-clad elderly man seemed to understand something. Realizing his destiny of being eaten and digested by someone, he let out continuous long howls: "Fellow Daoist! I was born from the pill furnace, and it has already been over ten thousand years. I have cultivated my nature and maintained my life, never killing. Being born and cultivating was not easy; I hope you can let me off and grant me a free body. I will be endlessly grateful. Although you have inherited the orthodoxy of Immortal Venerable Panwu, the heavens possess the virtue of sparing life. If you can let me off, the merit you will gain in the future will certainly not be small."
"Oh? Interesting, very interesting!" Fang Han did not expect that this pill was actually shrewder than cultivators, and could even preach, saying one thing after another.
"Sinful creature, you actually dare to use the Confusing Immortal Technique, with such an eloquent tongue!"
Fang Qingxue suddenly shouted sharply, striking out a palm toward this pill.
