"Divine Ability Realm!"
"Dharmic power!"
"Succeeded!"
"Finally succeeded…"
"Is this the Divine Ability Realm? Mommy said it would take me many more years of mental growth, eliminating terror, tempering my spirit, and forging my mind to be incomparably sharp without impurities, where a myriad terrors and agonies could not shake my heart, before I could step into the Divine Ability Realm! Otherwise, no matter how strong the body is or how many spirit medicines are used, it would be in vain." Xingyun Baobao's face crinkled up.
"What he cultivated was actually the Yama Golden Body! In the rumors, this is the most painful method of the Yellow Springs Sect! One must endure the agony of boiling in a cauldron of oil! Just how resilient is this person's endurance and spiritual will?" the demoness recognized it.
"He actually stepped into the Divine Ability Realm! This is unbelievable! In this Mountains and Rivers List competition, he will definitely be first, get the Dao Tool for first place, pass the assessment, and then be promoted to a True Disciple! Those people like Ye Tiannan are in trouble this time!" Thinking of the many expressions of disbelief when Fang Han returned to the Yuhua Sect, Princess Hongyi felt a sense of immense pleasure.
How difficult was the Divine Ability Realm? Harder than ascending to the blue heavens!
Admittedly, Fang Han had relied on many magical treasures, but the biggest factors were his own courage, his will, his courage to even challenge Hua Tiandu, and his toughness to endure boiling in a cauldron of oil, tempering his spirit to be a stretch of resilience without impurities!
However, achieving the Divine Ability Realm did not mean one could become a True Disciple immediately.
The Yuhua Sect's True Disciples had to undergo strict tests and inspections. Because they were core disciples, the sect had to be cautious. But at the Mountains and Rivers List competition, Fang Han would be able to overwhelm the heroes with his skill!
The Divine Ability Realm—even the first place on the Mountains and Rivers List could not reach this height. In reality, even the first-place inner sect disciple on the Mountains and Rivers List would not dare to challenge Hua Tiandu and offend this First True Disciple for the sake of dignity.
Overwhelming the heroes at the Mountains and Rivers List competition, obtaining the Dao Tool, then being valued by the sect, having his background investigated, being promoted to a True Disciple, holding high status and heavy authority, and establishing his own mountain peak—these were already certainties.
Relying on Fang Qingxue's relationship, there were no problems with Fang Han's origins. Unless the Yellow Springs Diagram was exposed, there would be zero issues with him being promoted to a True Disciple.
Even if the Yellow Springs Diagram was exposed, it could still be explained as his own fortuitous encounter.
"It seems my judgment in people was not wrong. That Liu Kang's vision was shallow, abandoning a friend like Fang Han for a flying sword. He truly had the eyesight of a rat and was short-sighted."
Princess Hongyi thought secretly in her heart.
"Dharma robes, come!" Seeing the surprised faces of the people around him, Fang Han knew he had finally accomplished his great task! Waving his hand, driven by Dharmic power, the Dharma robes automatically flew over and draped onto his body.
While he was being boiled, he had been stark naked all along.
Boom!
The air currents retracted and returned to his mind; the white tiger returned to its cave, the azure dragon entered the abyss. Fang Han planted both feet on the ground. With a wave of his hand, the four inner sect disciples were forcibly pulled out from the Yellow Springs Diagram. They were still unconscious.
Now that Fang Han had stepped into the Divine Ability Realm, it was time to subdue these four people.
After the four inner sect disciples were captured by Fang Han and stuffed into the Yellow Springs Diagram, they had been continuously suppressed and unconscious, so it was impossible for them to know the secret of the Yellow Springs Diagram. Furthermore, after Fang Han pulled them out, he would not let them know this secret.
The only one who knew Fang Han possessed the Yellow Springs Diagram was the Great Asura demoness. But she had been planted with the Amulette of Forgetting Love. Even if she desperately wanted to speak, she could not. With a shift of Yan's thought, she would become an idiot.
Princess Hongyi only knew that Fang Han had a legendary Dao Tool, not knowing it was the demon sect holy relic, the Yellow Springs Diagram. Crane Fairy did not know either and cared even less about such things.
Xingyun Baobao had seen too many treasures and did not seem to care about this either, taking it for granted that Fang Han had formidable magical treasures on him.
Whether these matters would be leaked or not, Fang Han knew strictly in his heart and would absolutely not expose the slightest bit of his secrets. The higher his Dharmic power, the more cautious and flawless he became in his mind.
With a flick of his finger, bang bang bang bang… Four crisp sounds of aural waves rang out, transmitting onto the bodies of the four inner sect disciples. The bodies of the four disciples jolted, and they gradually woke up.
This was Fang Han utilizing Dharmic power to stimulate their spirits.
Having just achieved his divine ability, he was not yet skilled in how to use Dharmic power and needed to practice a lot to increase his Dharmic power, make it more robust and flexible, and then seek Yan's guidance on how to accumulate for the next step of cultivation.
It should be known that his knowledge regarding the next step of cultivation in the Divine Ability Realm was a complete blank. Because after the Divine Ability Realm, the cultivation was vastly different from the Physical Body Realm. How to condense true qi, how to refine true qi into astral qi, how to harmonize yin and yang—all required a series of cultivation methods to coordinate.
He did not have this, nor was it possible for him to create it himself.
Either Yan would teach him, or after he became a True Disciple, the Yuhua Sect would personally impart it. They would also provide various paradisiacal domains and blessed lands to condense true qi.
For other experts cultivating to the Divine Ability Realm, this was not an urgent matter, but for Fang Han, he only had ten years. To catch up with Hua Tiandu, every passing second counted, and not a single instant could be wasted.
"What place is this?"
"Fang Han! You are so bold, you actually dared to knock us out and imprison us! This violates sect rules! I am going to report you to the elders!"
"This is the underground! You brought us to where the demons live. You really are colluding with the demons, you are a demon sect spy!"
"Haha, Fang Han, you don't dare to kill us. The Mountains and Rivers List competition will begin in a few months. When the headcount is taken then, missing the few of us, Senior Brother Ye will definitely tell the elders. At that time, even Fang Qingxue will not be able to protect you."
"If you know what's good for you, obediently release us! Otherwise, if we file a complaint against you, you will not easily absolve yourself of the blame."
As soon as the four inner sect disciples woke up, they were also very sharp. In a blink, they saw Fang Han sitting carelessly in a chair. At the same time, they observed their surroundings and knew this was the underground.
None of the inner sect disciples were fools. Facing a crisis, they still had the courage to not change their expressions. Otherwise, they could not have become inner sect disciples.
"Was it indeed Ye Nantian? He directed you to monitor me. This thing seeking death is truly tired of living. At the Mountains and Rivers List competition, I will make sure he dies a horrible death!" Fang Han sneered, "You say I collude with the demon sect. Now take a good look, this is the son of the Star Master of the Astral Sect. He was besieged by Great Asuras, and I rescued him. Do you say I collude with the demons?"
Fang Han pointed at Xingyun Baobao.
The title of the Star Master of the Astral Sect was enough to awe these disciples.
"You want to deal with Senior Brother Ye, that is impossible! His formidable nature is beyond your imagination!" an inner sect disciple cried out.
"Oh? Has he cultivated into the Divine Ability Realm?" Fang Han's eyes flashed as he raised his palm and delivered a remote strike! Whoosh, a shockwave of air surged down, and a clear palm print appeared on the ground in the distance, half a foot thick! The ground trembled!
