Fang Han's abrupt transformation into a bizarre appearance with three thousand arms and three thousand eyes startled Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable and Bai Xi once again. It seemed they had never seen such a grotesque figure before; this form was already beyond the scope of their understanding. Especially since the Pure Yang source energy unleashed by each of Fang Han's palm strikes possessed the quantity of one billion medicinal pills, his three thousand hands struck out a full three trillion Pure Yang medicinal pills!
Three trillion!
A full three trillion!
With this amount of Pure Yang medicinal pill source energy, even if the two of them pooled their savings together, they probably would not have this much. Yet, with a mere wave of his hands, Fang Han poured it all in. Deep within the hearts of both men, a feeling of jealousy arose.
Their realms were a full two tiers higher than Fang Han's. However, they were far less wealthy than he was. Let alone the fact that their years of cultivating the Dao preceded his by countless years, and they operated massive businesses with merchant guilds spread everywhere. Their painstaking savings over many years could not compare to a single wave of his hand. What kind of helplessness was this?
Three trillion Pure Yang source energy surged madly into the Eight部 Futu. After centuries of expansion and the permeation of the Indestructible Substance, the space within the Eight部 Futu had grown immeasurably massive. Although it could not compare to the twists and turns of the Yellow Spring Diagram, it was still beyond imagination.
Under the permeation of the Pure Yang source energy, various flames, and the Indestructible Substance, the numerous materials inside successively integrated into it. Countless dragon corpses, souls, and crystal stones melted away, bracing up the entire pagoda's body once more.
This treasure pagoda hovered in the void, squirming. With every squirm, it seemed to be inhaling and exhaling something. The pagoda's body thoroughly merged together, transforming into something resembling a chaotic mass of flesh and blood, with every inch of flesh breathing.
Immense power was brewing within it.
The Heavenly Demons were also permeated by the Indestructible Substance, their entire bodies growing bone-like armor. They transformed into individual war gods, giant dragon-spirit demons.
Witnessing this scene, Fang Han once again threw out the Dragon Emperor Pill from the second layer space of the Spoon of the Barren God, striking it into the Eight部 Futu. This contained the Blood of the Dragon Emperor!
The moment the Blood of the Dragon Emperor was struck inside, the Eight部 Futu underwent changes once more.
Woooo woooo woooo woooo.
This treasure pagoda, the Eight部 Futu, squirmed slowly. Over a period of fully three hundred years, after squirming three hundred million times, a stream of air suddenly rushed out from it, continuously piercing straight through the entire universe. Within it, countless illusions of divine dragons flew and galloped, forming characters one after another. They were the ancient Dragon Race characters, Sections of the primeval Dragon Race.
Many Heavenly Demons shouted within it, seemingly conducting a sacrificial ceremony.
One after another, phantom images of dragon-men also appeared, continuously prostrating and offering sacrifices.
Various scenes emerged, brilliantly dazzling and bizarrely variegated.
"A summons from the archaic times…"
"The primeval aura, devout faith, summoning the return of the Ancestor Dragon God…"
"The previous universe was not destroyed; the Ancestor Dragon God intertwines within it. The Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds are transformed from your dragon pearl, the sun, moon, and stars are your eyes, the five elements of the earth are your dragon scales…"
"The ancient Holy Ancestor, the forefather of the Dragon Race, the existence that birthed all things, we offer our devout summons here for your return. Across all heavens and myriad realms, all deities are illusions; only you are real. The sole true god, the Dragon World, is the only true world!"
…
An unknown voice, the voice of the sacrifice, transmitted from deep within the Eight部 Futu. It also seemed to be transmitted from the Dragon World passage opened by the Eight部 Futu.
This voice was incredibly drawn-out; every syllable seemed to last a century. Amidst this voice, Fang Han, Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable, and Bai Xi all shuddered entirely!
"Quickly, we must accumulate and condense. This is bridging the Dragon World, transcending time and space, reproducing the ancient Dragon Race, and manifesting the scene of when the Primeval Ancestor Dragon was summoned!" Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable said. "We traced back to the origin of time and space, finally reaching this current stage. The moment the sacrifice ends will be the moment the source spirit of the Primeval Ancestor Dragon descends! At that time, we must elevate our power to the peak to be able to withstand this coercion. And the Eight部 Futu must reach its peak to be able to thoroughly refine the source spirit aura of the Primeval Ancestor Dragon. This is no small matter! According to legends, with a single claw, the Primeval Ancestor Dragon could claw through the Immortal World, and with a single breath, it could destroy a great world. Although the summoned source spirit aura is but a trace, it is absolutely not something we can endure! Even my Nine Tripods might collapse! Bai Xi, are you ready? I fear you won't be able to protect your grand array either."
"It does not matter! If it cannot be protected, then so be it. Being able to witness the source spirit aura of the Primeval Ancestor Dragon makes this life worthwhile!"
Bai Xi bellowed wildly, roaring. The Great World Technique was executed, and countless spaces twisted into shape, entering the Eight部 Futu once again. Instantly, deep within the Eight部 Futu, the voices of the countless Dragon Race sacrifices grew even louder.
During the lengthy passage of time, years passed, cycle after cycle.
Fang Han, Bai Xi, and Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable continuously transferred source energy, Creation Qi, and even the power of the world into the interior of the treasure pagoda. This treasure pagoda was truly embedded in the void, roaming between the universe of heaven and earth, expanding to the size of a small planet.
Hoo hoo, hoo hoo, hoo hoo!
Towards the end, Fang Han began to pant heavily as well. "This Eight部 Futu is actually this difficult to sacrifice and refine! Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable, Bai Xi, and I have sacrificed and refined it for nearly two thousand years, yet it is still not fully complete! However, during this process of refinement, I have also gained many benefits, learning many methods for sacrificing and refining magical treasures, making my control over Peerless Dao Artifacts even more precise! If the Eight部 Futu is this difficult, how arduous will it be to sacrifice and refine the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures in the future?"
The Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures were ten times harder to refine than the Eight部 Futu; this was unquestionable.
Although the refinement process took nearly two thousand years, Fang Han's cultivation had become even purer. The Peerless Dao Artifacts integrated into his body, the Black Emperor Tide Pennant and the Flame Emperor Fire Dragon Cauldron, faintly gave off a feeling of truly fusing with his physical body, becoming inseparable from him, much like the Six-Eyed God Sealing Stele.
Finally, the Creation Qi of the three men had all been transferred. Deep within the Eight部 Futu, deep within the opened Dragon World passage, the lengthy sacrificial ceremony seemed to have reached its conclusion.
The final syllable finally drew the curtain to a close.
"Pay attention!"
Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable and Bai Xi seemed to have been waiting precisely for this moment and wildly roared out the two words.
Before their words could even fade away, rumble! A vast sound that could probably scare even an Immortal into shivering transmitted from the void. The source of the sound was inside the Eight部 Futu. Wherever the sonic waves swept, worlds shattered. Bai Xi's Eight Poles Golden Lock Returning to Origin and Refining Form Soul Transferring Grand Array was vibrated by this sound and shattered everywhere.
Fang Han immediately executed the Yellow Spring Diagram to protect his body. He genuinely never expected that advancing the Eight部 Futu to a High-grade Dao Artifact would create such a massive disturbance.
Within this irresistible sound, space and time began to compress, and the universe seemed to begin shrinking. Fang Han even felt as if he had broken away from the Cultivation Great World and arrived in the vast starry sky. Deep within a vast galaxy composed of a trillion trillion stars, the massive form of the Ancestor Dragon appeared. A single whisker of that Ancestor Dragon's body seemed to traverse several galaxies. When it opened its eyes, all the stars sparkled brightly; when it closed its eyes, all the stars went pitch black, and the universe was plunged into darkness.
What a massive dragon this was!
Fang Han could not even find words to describe why there would be a dragon this massive, and how exactly this kind of dragon existed. Why would there be such a colossal living being in the universe of heaven and earth?
"My heavens!"
In his mind, only these words remained. He had seen quite a few formidable figures: Supreme Emperor Heaven, Scarlet Abyss Demon Venerable, Linglong Immortal Venerable, the Inner Demon Old Man, the mysterious person in the Taiyuan Immortal Abode… But in the eyes of this Ancestor Dragon, these people were all ants, roles equivalent to little ants. Even the Human Emperor Pen fell short! It was merely a slightly larger ant.
This Ancestor Dragon seemed to be slumbering deep within the river of a trillion trillion stars, motionless. But faintly, the sacrificial voices within the Eight部 Futu awakened it just a tiny bit, and its claw twitched slightly.
Rumble!
Fang Han felt a vast power, bordering on heavenly majesty, bombard down from the void, causing him to return once again to the grand array deep underground in the White Emperor City.
At the very top of the grand array appeared the shrunken form of the Ancestor Dragon. Although it was shrunken, to Fang Han, it still extended into the void, reaching a million miles in length. A single claw could crush a planet. Then, this shrunken Ancestor Dragon descended, its eyes coldly looking at the three men.
"The time has come! The Nine Tripods obliterate, merge into the Futu! Great Treasure Refining Technique!"
At this very moment, Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable suddenly struck out. The nine Semi-Peerless State Tripods abruptly crashed toward that shrunken source spirit of the Primeval Ancestor Dragon, and then, mid-air, they explosively detonated!
"The Grand Array gets destroyed, Golden Immortal descends, merge into the Futu!"
Bai Xi also did not hesitate in the slightest. Waves of destructive aura surged from his body as he struck out the Great Treasure Refining Technique. That Eight Poles Golden Lock Returning to Origin and Refining Form Soul Transferring Grand Array suddenly spun, inverting time and space, and then wrapped upward!
The two of them actually struck at the same time, completely destroying the treasures they valued as their own lives and had painstakingly cultivated for an unknown number of tens of thousands of years, transforming them into an attacking force!
A drawn-out dragon cry was transmitted from the body of the shrunken Primeval Ancestor Dragon. This Primeval Ancestor Dragon was manifested from just a tiny speck of its origin aura; however, even just a tiny speck of origin aura was enough to exterminate experts at the World King Realm.
However, under the frenzied attacks and ruthless hands of Bai Xi and Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable, it was powerless. This source spirit was instantly enveloped, and then the two peerless powerhouses drove the power of their worlds to ruthlessly smash it into the Eight部 Futu!
"You!"
Fang Han was greatly startled. He had not anticipated that at the final critical juncture, Bai Xi and Nine Tripod Immortal Venerable would pull such a trick. Abandoning their grand array and their intrinsic Semi-Peerless Dao Artifact magical treasures to add power to their Eight部 Futu?
"Hahahahaha, Fang Han! We abandoned our treasures and expended our source energy exactly for this moment. Not to transform the Eight部 Futu into a High-grade Dao Artifact, but to directly elevate it into a Semi-Peerless Dao Artifact! However, this treasure is no longer yours; it jointly belongs to the two of us! And today, you will be entirely exterminated by us! The Spoon of the Barren God on you will also belong to us. You probably do not know who I am. I am the King of Divine Beasts. Back then, when you executed the Great Puppet Technique and summoned away the five great divine beasts, I tried to block you but failed!"
Bai Xi began to laugh wildly!
"So it was that massive white claw! I was wondering why it felt so familiar!" Fang Han suddenly realized!
