"Call me Yunjin." While speaking, Yunjin seemed to be calculating something, but she was entirely unable to deduce any information about the Fang Han sitting opposite her. She could not help but feel astounded. "What is going on with this person? My Heaven Position Law cannot deduce the slightest trace of his movements. It is as if he has no past, present, or future—just a blank slate. He doesn't seem to exist within the universe of heaven and earth at all. Even holding a magic treasure that can block others' deductions, this kind of situation shouldn't occur!"
"This Eldest Lady of the Splendid Mansion is actually a powerhouse of the Heaven Position Realm, just like me. Although she is not as deep and scheming as Ying Xiantian, she is also skilled in deduction…"
Fang Han immediately perceived what the Lady Yunjin's realm and strength were approximately like.
"I, along with Nine Tripods Immortal Venerable and Daoist Friend Bai Xi, co-refined a magic treasure, and the refinement was successful. Therefore, my strength increased drastically, allowing me to exchange a few blows with that True Monarch Wither and Flourish," Fang Han said very casually.
"No matter what, Young Master Fang Han, you must be careful. Young Master Qi seeks revenge for the smallest grievance! Furthermore, he can mobilize immense energy. If Young Master Fang Han is alone, I fear two fists will find it difficult to fight four hands," Yunjin said.
"I wonder what cultivation level that Young Master Qi has?"
Fang Han took a sip of tea.
"This Young Master Qi, like me, is at the 'Heaven Position Realm', the Longevity Sixth Tier. He is an outstanding figure among the younger generation. On the Cultivation Potential Ranking, he ranks near the top. The Cultivation Potential Ranking is a cultivation list of the top one hundred chamber of commerce young master successors in our Cultivation Great World. If interested, Young Master Fang Han can go take a look. There are quite a few experts on it who are cronies of Young Master Qi. If they band together, I fear it will be disadvantageous to you."
"Disadvantageous to me?" Fang Han smiled faintly: "It's nothing much. Even if a Void Immortal comes, it's not as if I lack the power to protect myself. Moreover, experts at the Void Immortal level wouldn't fool around like this. After all, they are immortals; figures who have survived the Immortal Realm thunder tribulation know the hardship of cultivation."
"In short, it is still best for the Young Master to be careful," Yunjin warned: "The power they wield is no small matter. Once offended, there will be unimaginable troubles."
"I naturally know that the True Monarch Pagoda's Young Master is exceedingly troublesome to deal with. Today, I also helped the Eldest Lady out of a predicament once, hoping to conduct a transaction with the Eldest Lady. Once this deal is struck, I will not fear these people's harassment either!" Fang Han spoke unhurriedly, bringing the topic back on track.
"Is that so? What kind of deal? Once completed, you actually wouldn't fear these people's harassment?" Yunjin said in shock.
"Naturally, I want to cooperate with the Eldest Lady to jointly refine a supreme treasure. If this supreme treasure is successfully refined, Lady Yunjin might just be able to break through the bottleneck and become a World King Realm expert." Fang Han's tone was mysterious and full of temptation.
"What did you say? By refining a magic treasure, one can break through their realm? How is that possible? Unless it is that kind of supreme treasure encompassing the destinies of the heavens, created by ancient mighty figures!" Hearing this, Yunjin was clearly tempted. Regarding breaking through her realm, she thoughts about it at every moment. Advancing from the Longevity Sixth Tier, Heaven Position Realm, to the Longevity Seventh Tier, World King Realm, was a massive breakthrough that granted the power of a world, comprehending world laws within the body. Even most ancient cultivators were stuck at this juncture, unable to advance even until they died of old age. Yunjin also felt a sense of crisis, deeply fearing that her lifespan would end before she could comprehend it, ultimately dying at this bottleneck.
Breaking through realms was something no one else could help with.
Now that there was actually an opportunity, anyone would be tempted.
However, she naturally wouldn't easily believe others. A hint of a smile appeared on her face: "I wonder what treasure you intend to refine? To possess such miraculous effects?"
"The Dragon Race's supreme treasure, the Eight Divisions Pagoda, how about it?" Fang Han flicked his finger, and the phantom of a pagoda appeared above his head, radiating myriad rays of light that pierced through the void. A Supreme Dragon Pearl spun slightly, suppressing Yunjin so much she could hardly catch her breath.
"The Eight Divisions Pagoda! The Dragon Race's supreme treasure, you actually successfully refined it! Legend has it that when this Eight Divisions Pagoda transforms into a high-grade dao artifact, it can commune with the primordial spirit of the ancient ancestral dragon, condensing a Supreme Dragon Pearl, holding supreme suppression over dragon pearls. Your current Eight Divisions Pagoda has already surpassed a Dragon Race supreme treasure and advanced into a half-peerless dao artifact. Could it be, you wish to advance it into a true peerless dao artifact! But, how difficult that must be to advance into a true peerless dao artifact! Furthermore, we fundamentally lack the ability to condense it. This kind of treasure is not like ordinary peerless artifacts. Even those in the World King Realm are unable to refine it. Only Void Immortals or True Immortals can, but it would take many years."
Yunjin said in shock: "Moreover, for the Eight Divisions Pagoda to advance into a true peerless artifact, one must go to the Dragon Realm, preferably advancing within the Dragon's Graveyard. However, when advancing, the Dragon Realm will produce phenomena, and dragon emperor-level experts will all come to fight for it. Dragon emperors are figures equivalent to the Heavenly Immortal level!"
"Of course it isn't the Eight Divisions Pagoda. I have another Immortal Realm supreme treasure. Currently, it is still a mid-grade dao artifact, to be refined into a high-grade dao artifact. The energy and Immortal Realm aura generated during its transformation will be enough to provide a very high chance of causing one to reach enlightenment. If Lady Yunjin does not believe it, please look at this treasure!"
As he spoke, a bridge-like magic treasure appeared in Fang Han's hand. This bridge-like magic treasure was a model. However, on the bridge, ancient characters that no one recognized were carved. Nor was it known what material this bridge-like magic treasure was forged from. Compared to the Bridge of Helplessness, it possessed a kind of pure immortal aura.
The Bridge of Helplessness purely communed with the wills between gods and demons, focused primarily on death and slaughter.
Yet this bridge was focused primarily on nobility, transcendence, nature, and creation.
One righteous, one evil.
This was precisely the "Bridge Stepping to Heaven" among the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures.
The Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures, named after the heavens, were specifically the thirty-three layers of heaven. When combined together, their might was vast, communing with the heavenly might of the Immortal Realm. They harbored unpredictable profound mysteries.
"Eh? This magic treasure!" Seeing the Bridge Stepping to Heaven, Jinyun's eyes immediately lit up. Although this was only a mid-grade dao artifact, she was also someone who conducted massive business deals, a figure who had seen who knows how many treasures in her lifetime. She immediately saw that this mid-grade dao artifact was extraordinary.
"Young Master, may I take it in hand to have a look?"
"It's no matter." Fang Han tossed it, and the Bridge Stepping to Heaven turned into a streak of treasure light and landed in Jinyun's hand. Jinyun stroked this treasure, her fingers continuously flashing with Heaven Position Laws as if calculating the origin of this magic treasure. However, after deducing for a long while, the look in her eyes grew increasingly blank, and the confusion on her face deepened.
Finally, she opened her mouth and spat out a blade light that continuously circled around the Bridge Stepping to Heaven. At last, this blade light actually came to a stop, inching forward as if showing goodwill toward the Bridge Stepping to Heaven. A look of incomparable astonishment finally appeared in her eyes.
Whew!
She let out a long breath and raised her head: "Young Master Fang Han, you don't just have one such treasure, do you? This heavy treasure of the Immortal Realm appears to be a set. If it truly advances into a high-grade dao artifact, it will certainly draw forth heaven and earth phenomena. Within those heaven and earth phenomena, there is indeed a great possibility for my realm to advance."
"That is a certainty. It depends on whether you are ultimately willing to cooperate with me to jointly refine this treasure." With a movement of Fang Han's fingers, he formed a hand seal of the Great Treasure Forging Art, and the Bridge Stepping to Heaven immediately flew back. "I have a list of materials needed to refine this treasure here; take a look."
"Young Master Fang Han, what you executed just now, was it the legendary supreme Great Treasure Forging Art among the Three Thousand Great Dao, the most miraculous for refining magic treasures?" Jinyun took Fang Han's list and asked without even looking at it.
"Indeed, it is this dao art. If you are willing to refine it together with me, I may not be averse to passing this dao art on to you." Fang Han further tempted her with the Great Treasure Forging Art.
"This temptation is truly too great; it makes it impossible for me to refuse even if I wanted to. Ah! So many materials are needed! Some materials, even our Splendid Mansion does not have. The value of these materials is truly immense. I'm afraid! I'm afraid they are worth over a hundred trillion pills, or even a thousand trillion! Some are priceless treasures that cannot be measured with pills!"
Jinyun gave the list a sweep with her eyes and nearly jumped up, completely disregarding her image as a lady.
"Indeed, this treasure simply requires this many materials. More than half of the materials must source from the Immortal Realm. Only in a place like the Cultivation Great World could there be so many treasures. Splendid Mansion is a top one hundred major chamber of commerce; it might not be impossible to gather these materials." Fang Han said unhurriedly: "Furthermore, the Nine Tripods Merchant Guild and the White Emperor Chamber of Commerce have now merged into one under my control, and can also cooperate with the Splendid Mansion. We can jointly plan this matter."
"Are these words true?" Jinyun was astounded once more. She felt that just after meeting Fang Han this once today, she had exhausted all the astonishment she was meant to have in her entire life.
"Naturally it is true. Like this, you dispatch someone to the White Emperor Chamber of Commerce now to discuss the matter of cooperation between the two major chambers of commerce," Fang Han said without caring.
"Xing Rong, take people and make a trip." Lady Jinyun waved her hand.
"Yes!" The beautiful middle-aged woman nodded: "Although the White Emperor Chamber of Commerce isn't ranked high, they have many hidden businesses that cannot be exposed to the light. If they can be utilized by our Splendid Mansion, both sides expanding channels, with the additional assistance of an expert like Young Master Fang Han, I believe it won't be long before our Splendid Mansion can rank among the top ten and gain the Treasure Master's approval."
"Ranking in the top ten is no small matter. No matter how large the business or how abundant the funds, it's useless unless the faction's helmsman cultivates to the Void Immortal realm. However, my mother has been in closed-door death cultivation for a full eight thousand years. Continuing like this, it will be hard to break through. Better to fight and take a gamble by refining this Immortal Realm supreme treasure. Who knows, there might be an opportunity for a breakthrough."
Jinyun raised her head and clenched her teeth slightly.
Instantly, Fang Han saw it. This Jinyun, the Eldest Lady of the Splendid Mansion, was an extremely decisive person.
"Young Master Fang Han, this matter is too significant. I must go notify my mother who is in closed-door death cultivation. You just have a seat here in my Splendid Mansion and settle down, also avoiding stirring up trouble." Jinyun stood up.
"That's unnecessary. I also wish to roam and experience this Cultivation Great World a bit." Fang Han waved his hand and flicked a finger, sending a talisman flying out. "If you confirm that you will cooperate with me to jointly refine the treasure, I will come to the Splendid Mansion again. If you disagree, then I will have to go seek other reliable partners."
While speaking, Fang Han's body had already vanished from sight. No one knew how he had left.
