Neither Fang Han nor Mi Bao expected this "Ya Zongdao" to suddenly unleash his might, executing the miraculous saber technique of the "Three Saber Strikes of Slaying Saints" known as the Dao Follows Nature, entangling him and preventing his power from being unleashed, thereby allowing the members of the Tianya Sect to form an encirclement once more.
This time, as the people of the Tianya Sect surrounded them, they were truly risking their lives, every single one of them burning their lifespans.
That Ya Wuben even consecutively destroyed a full four or five Supreme Grade Dao Artifacts he had refined himself, then sacredly sacrificed them in exchange for tremendous power, transferring it into the "Saint Exterminating Grand Array."
The grand array laid out by the Tianya Sect was called the "Saint Exterminating Grand Array," capable of eradicating even saints. Its ferocious might was evident.
"It does not matter, my nephew will not die so easily. Even if he is only left with a mass of flesh and blood right now, I can take him back and request the ancestors of the sect to execute the Profound Immortal True Method to recondense his shattered laws. Moreover, at worst, I will capture dozens of True Immortals, dig out their laws of life and death, and set up a Grand Array of Bringing the Dead Back to Life."
A mass of flesh and blood squirmed in the air, containing only a faint soul aura and some shattered laws. Such a form could no longer be called human. It was purely a lump of rotten meat.
This was the corpse of the young pavilion master of the Tianya Sea Pavilion, which had been smashed and shattered by Fang Han using the Treasure Distributing Rock. He was the nephew of Ya Wuben, and also the nephew of Ya Zongdao.
The "Saint Exterminating Grand Array" instantly enveloped Fang Han entirely. Streaks of profound marks appeared on all sides, like a shattering mirror, like the splitting textures of the Great Dao.
This grand array, urged by all the figures of the Tianya Sect, was sufficient to trap even Divine Immortals within it. Furthermore, the expert anchoring the grand array was the sect master Ya Zongdao, incarnating the Dao Follows Nature to attack Fang Han, his saber light flickering, stripping away the Force of Creation.
In the blink of an eye, the situation reversed. Fang Han and Mi Bao were trapped within, possessing only the power to parry without the strength to fight back.
As the Saint Exterminating Grand Array was activated, it covered the heavens and earth, encompassing up, down, left, right, and the eight directions, enveloping the entire universe and cosmos. Within the enveloped void, rifts of the Great Dao cracked open, intent on executing Fang Han and destroying everything.
"Kill him, refine him alive!" Divine fire sprayed from Ya Wuben's mouth and nose. This rolling divine fire was called the Samadhi True Fire of Seven, cultivated from one's life primal seven samadhi, capable of melting immortal dao laws. Spraying it out at this moment was precisely to thoroughly kill Fang Han within the grand array.
"Correct, the Saint Exterminating Grand Array can obliterate ancient sages." A powerhouse Heavenly Immortal giant, who was also the Dao Master of the Tianya Sect's "Jade Firmament Dao Arena," named Immortal Jade Firmament, a middle-aged man covered in jade garments, burned his lifespan and executed his own "Jade Fire Heavenly Flame." Streams of jade-colored torrents rolled and burned, pouring into the Saint Exterminating Grand Array, urging the entire grand array to operate to its extreme, making cracking sounds.
"We strike together, a world-shocking blow!"
Every paramount giant emitted divine fire. At the same time, they roared madly, their massive hands furiously slapping towards the inside of the array, each unleashing their strongest killing moves.
"Jade Falls Without Interval!"
"Executing Buddha Grand Sorrow!"
"Ferocious God Descends to the World!"
"Qi Fills the Cosmos!"
"Immortal Sect Grand Majesty!"
…
A full ten or more absolute killing moves twisted into one strand, descending from the sky and falling into the grand array, cooperating with Ya Zongdao's Dao Follows Nature to bombard Fang Han's body.
Crackle! Crackle!
Fang Han's body cracked inch by inch, and the blood of the Ancestral Dragon flowed out. In the past, when his body was shattered, there was no flesh or blood, nor bones, but rather the internal world of the boundless Eight Divisions Pagoda. Now, however, he had gradually refined the illusory into reality, acquiring a few fractions of the appearance of an immemorial Ancestral Dragon avatar. Once he fully refined the main body of the Chaos Flesh and Blood Primeval Womb, he would likely possess the true form of an immemorial Ancestral Dragon.
"Fang Han!"
At this moment, Mi Bao, having hidden inside Fang Han's internal world and seeing Fang Han blasted until he cracked open, cried out in heartache. She desperately channeled the Force of Origin out and urged the Treasure Distributing Rock; its light flickered, resisting the refinement of the Saint Exterminating Grand Array on Fang Han's behalf.
The bombardments of that Saint Exterminating Grand Array were continuous, beating Fang Han to the point of swaying left and right, his body on the verge of exploding.
"Fang Han, did you think my Tianya Sect truly could not destroy you? You underestimate our power far too much. An ancient grand sect is absolutely not something your pheasant Gate of Good Fortune can compare to. Next year today will be the anniversary of the death of the Gate of Good Fortune." Ya Wuben's eyes were blood-red, his rage turning into sheer excitement, intending to completely kill Fang Han and destroy him right here.
"Refine this person and obtain his Eight Divisions Pagoda, World Tree, and the Treasure Distributing Rock. Our Tianya Sect will then truly be able to become the number one sect among the ancient sects."
"This time is an opportunity!"
"A thousand cuts and ten thousand slices, tormented by myriad fires. Exterminate the saints and execute the sages." … The many Dao Masters of the Tianya Sect burned their lifespans once more, intent on seizing the essential qi within Fang Han's body and obtaining his Eight Divisions Pagoda.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Han's body seemed to be continuously collapsing, man and dragon separating. Within his body, a precious pagoda manifested, seemingly ready to fly away at any moment.
"Good! The Eight Divisions Pagoda has finally appeared. I absolutely must get my hands on this magic treasure. By fusing it with my Great Accomplishment Holy Saber, and then slaughtering Heavenly Immortals for blood sacrifice, it can metamorphose into a true fairy artifact. At that time, I will truly be the number one person at the Heavenly Immortal level, even capable of defeating Divine Immortals!"
Seeing this pagoda, Ya Zongdao's full head of white hair fluttered. He charged downwards, his saber light shifting as the divine resonance of the Dao Follows Nature rolled and impacted endlessly.
"The power of an entire sect like the Tianya Sect is truly formidable. However, taking me down is not an easy matter either. Origin and Creation, dual merge into one, Treasure Distributing Transforming into a Dragon, Eight Divisions True Dragon!" Right at this moment, Fang Han suddenly shuddered abruptly. Astonishingly, he utilized the Myriad Things Transforming into Dragon Art to ritually refine the Treasure Distributing Rock, while simultaneously forcefully combining the Force of Origin and the Force of Creation.
This move of his was not meant to snatch the Treasure Distributing Rock from Mi Bao's hands, but because he knew that using the Myriad Things Transforming into Dragon Art to ritually refine the Treasure Distributing Rock could unleash its maximum might in his own hands.
All of a sudden, the Eight Divisions Pagoda flickered, and upon it, the aura of the Ancestral Witch Mirror actually began to shimmer. It instantly permeated into the deepest spatial depths of the Treasure Distributing Rock.
Rumble!
In the core depths of that Treasure Distributing Rock, an ancient divine coffin suddenly began to vibrate, seemingly sensing the aura of the Ancestral Witch Mirror. With a crack, the coffin lid opened, and an aura of the Source of All Evil shone out. Following that, a large, deathly gray hand slowly reached out from within. A wave of atrocious, malicious qi, resenting the heavens, resenting the earth, resenting humans, resenting immortals, resenting buddhas… it was the ultimate source of evil.
"The Source of All Evil? It was actually hidden in the Treasure Distributing Rock?" Fang Han's divine intent detected this scene, and he too was startled. He knew this entity was intolerable to the Heavenly Realm, but he hadn't sensed its aura when utilizing Mi Bao's Treasure Distributing Rock. Originally, he thought it had been taken to the Immortal Realm by the Treasure Master and obliterated by the mighty figures of the Immortal Realm. Now, it was actually hidden in the core depths, in a place undetected by him, only to be stimulated by the aura of the Ancestral Witch Mirror.
This shock was no trivial matter.
However, deep within his heart, Fang Han instantly felt that this Source of All Evil, seemingly because of its connection to the Ancestral Witch Mirror's aura, posed no threat to him. Instead, it suddenly extended its hand and grabbed outwards.
Pfft!
Amidst the sudden strike of this deathly gray hand and the Source of All Evil, all the brilliance of the Saint Exterminating Grand Array completely ruptured. The entire grand array instantly hovered on the brink of collapse, malicious qi rolling and filling the universe.
This deathly gray hand represented the ultimate source of evil, infinite terror, and boundless power.
"What is this thing?" As Dao Master Jade Firmament's immortal art collapsed, he saw the deathly gray hand reach out. The rolling malicious qi nearly made him vomit, actually spawning diseases within his Heavenly Immortal body. "How is this possible? I possess the body of a Heavenly Immortal, free of disease and disaster. How could I feel the sensation of sickness? But with this malicious qi entering my body, I…"
Before he could even recover his wits, that deathly gray hand grabbed towards him. With a direct scoop, the immortal dao gang qi surrounding his entire body was shaken until it ruptured. Then, as easily as an eagle catching a chick, it gave him a direct squeeze.
"Ah!"
This Dao Master Jade Firmament was squeezed into a mass of meat paste, which then turned deathly gray. Even the Heavenly Immortal laws within his body turned into deathly ash, melting into that gray hand.
A Heavenly Immortal was instantly killed by this massive hand!
"This is? The Treasure Distributing Rock, the Source of All Evil!" Upon seeing this, Ya Zongdao was greatly shocked, seemingly recognizing what this entity was. "So that's how it is. The Treasure Master's death… so this is the reason. He wanted to bring such a terrifying thing into the Heavenly Realm. How could the Heavenly Realm possibly tolerate it? No wonder he died. But how can this Source of All Evil be controlled by Fang Han? The moment it comes out, it should devour its master. No one can control them!"
"Bang!"
Just as Ya Zongdao's divine thoughts flickered, that deathly gray hand once again grabbed towards "Ya Wuben."
"Retreat quickly! Members of the Tianya Sect, retreat rapidly! Leave this place! With the appearance of the Source of All Evil, the Heavenly Realm will naturally send down punishment." Ya Zongdao's body flew up at once. The Great Accomplishment Holy Saber in his hand slashed toward that deathly gray hand, executing the killing move of the Dao Follows Nature once more in an attempt to block the assault of this Source of All Evil.
"What exactly is going on here?" Seeing this scene, Mi Bao said in shock.
"It is the Source of All Evil. Your father somehow obtained the Source of All Evil and wanted to bring it into the Heavenly Realm. Thus, he encountered a fatal tribulation," Fang Han said immediately, urging the power of the Flesh and Blood Primeval Womb to begin restoring his whole body. Blazing blood flames burned, and in the blink of an eye, he recovered from his injuries.
"Father once said that an entity intolerable even to the Heavenly Realm was sealed within the Treasure Distributing Rock, telling me absolutely never to touch it, for the moment it was moved, it would devour its master," Mi Bao said hurriedly.
"No matter. I can sense that the Ancestral Witch Mirror is the most crucial treasure for controlling the Source of All Evil," Fang Han said. "The Source of All Evil will not harm us. Therefore, sweeping up this excellent opportunity, we will extinguish the Tianya Sect in one fell swoop. With so many Heavenly Immortals as blood sacrifices, and especially by adding that Great Accomplishment Holy Saber and dragonifying them together, my Eight Divisions Pagoda will elevate yet another realm. Let us strike together; to catch the bandits, first catch the king! Kill that Ya Zongdao!"
Restoring all his power, Fang Han's body shot up into the sky. He blasted a punch toward Ya Zongdao. With the aura of the Ancestral Witch Mirror, the deathly gray hand of the Source of All Evil genuinely had zero impact on him.
