In a mere instant, an illustration appeared within Fang Han's mind showing Feng Yaoguang cultivating into a Heavenly Immortal and then shattering space to ascend. Concurrently, Fang Qingxue found the treasures she had left behind from that era, as well as one molted remain after another that had drifted through boundless space-time, coiled with billions upon trillions of lightning bolts, ultimately retrieved by her true body.
From the memories, Fang Han finally understood that the chess pieces Fang Qingxue had independently set up back in the day were simply far too numerous, with individual treasures scattered like stars across the cosmos.
He additionally learned just how many lives Fang Qingxue had reincarnated through since the ancient period. In every life, she faced the pursuit of the Heavenly Realm, ultimately evading perilously and preventing her physical form and spirit from being entirely extinguished. Yet there were multiple instances where she had been wholly wiped out by the experts of the Heavenly Realm, only to be resurrected by relying upon the soul brand of the Gate of Eternal Life in the most precarious of ways.
Perceiving these memories caused Fang Han’s mind to sway tremendously.
"Senior Sister, set your mind at ease. In this life, no matter what happens, I will absolutely not allow anyone to cause you harm. In this life, even if I have to expend my very life, I will return you to your far ancient glory and see you achieve the great karmic position of a Heavenly Monarch!"
Fang Han vowed.
"Hahahaha, hahahaha. A mere ant also dares to delusionally speak of Heavenly Monarchs." The Heavenly Realm prominent figure burst into a fit of wild laughter. It appeared he had finally established his great array. The majestic mountains and rivers materialized from the Primordial Wuji Maps locked into stability. The Dragon Realm was no longer the Dragon Realm.
Fang Han's heart sank.
He actually sensed that the Heavenly Realm prominent figure's array sealed the resonance between the Eight Divisions Pagoda and the Dragon Realm, rendering him unable to borrow the Dragon Realm's vital energy for assistance.
Generally speaking, when within the Dragon Realm, a piece of immortal artifact caliber like the Eight Divisions Pagoda could amplify its user’s power by a thousandfold, effectively generating a function similar to the Emperor's Book inside the Xuanhuang Great World.
But now, being sealed, it was equivalent to his hands and feet being restrained.
Yet, he felt self-assured. Having reunited with Fang Qingxue and his combat power skyrocketing, it was not definitively impossible for him to shatter the seal and break out. As long as he evaded the prominent figure's pursuit, the sky is high enough for a bird to fly, and the sea is vast enough for a fish to leap.
"Senior Sister, let us join forces, shatter the blockade, and escape. Later on, we will seek an opportunity to ascend to the Heavenly Realm. I have forged the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures and can ascend silently and formlessly. Unbeknownst to any figures of the Heavenly Realm."
Fang Han covertly heightened his combat power straight to its absolute peak, preparing to erupt out an earth-shattering and heaven-shaking strike to shred the Primordial Wuji Map.
"You go first, I will cover the rear. This Heavenly Realm prominent figure maintains backup moves and is absolutely not so easily dealt with." Fang Qingxue suddenly opened her mouth.
"What?" Fang Han was struck blank, "This time, no matter what it takes, I will not let you protect me, Senior Sister, but rather I will protect you. Do not say anything more. Primordial Wuji, tear apart for me."
In the flash of an intention, Fang Han launched his attack first. His body instantaneously split into several incarnations, respectively striking out various killer moves such as Fortune, Origins, the Seven Styles of Adjudication, and the Reincarnation of All Heavens. However, they did not attack the Heavenly Realm prominent figure, but instead aimed to tear apart the Primordial Wuji Map.
Riiip, shriiiek… Dozens of Primordial Wuji Maps were shredded apart. A surge of origin force from the Dragon Realm seemingly poured inward. Great joy arose in Fang Han's heart, and he prepared to charge his way out.
But at this moment, the Heavenly Realm prominent figure snorted coldly. Suddenly, even more Primordial Wuji Maps generated, genuinely patching up the crevices. Simultaneously, the prominent figure viciously thrust a step forward. Many of Fang Han's incarnations consecutively exploded, and all his divine abilities thoroughly disintegrated.
"Within my Dual Phases of the Real and Illusory Great Array, everything operates alongside my will. If my heart wills it to exist authentically, it genuinely exists; if it wills for it to be illusory, it is merely illusory."
Locking exactly onto Fang Han, the Heavenly Realm prominent figure made a grasp anew. Spanning his giant hand, he flickered steadily, directly assaulting Fang Han’s Mystic Immortal laws. With his other hand, he pinched toward Fang Qingxue, achieving two goals with a single shot to enact a fierce strike upon both individuals.
Stepping with a profoundly mysterious gait, Fang Han ceaselessly circulated his Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures, demonstrating an enduring combat power that would never wane. Suddenly, his heart jolted slightly. As he launched Dao arts, he swiftly shuttled them through every array layer of the thirty-three supreme treasures.
"Buzz!"
This abrupt and nimble dynamism actually triggered a vastly unexpected effect. Every single Dao art he unleashed through his killer strike flowed across the thirty-three layers of supreme treasures. It was as if it passed through the spiraling catalysis of thirty-three peerless immortal Dao great arrays, elevating the might of his sole strike by over thirty-three times!
Upon throwing a single Fortune Divine Fist strike of "Heavenless Killing," Fang Han actually materialized thirty-three humanoid silhouettes. The might dispatched by every single humanoid silhouette was identical in strength to that of his main body.
Within this very fleeting instant, it equated exactly to thirty-three Fang Hans attacking the Heavenly Realm prominent figure concurrently.
A wave of vital energy quaked. Normally, even a single Fang Han was already excessively terrifying, possessing combat power comparable to a half-step Golden Immortal mighty figure. Thus, with what was now equal to thirty-three Fang Hans making a move simultaneously, the Heavenly Realm prominent figure's massive hand was instantly smashed to powder. That Primordial Wuji Map was once more shredded. The deployed great array ripped a gap open, and the vital energy from the Dragon Realm cascaded downward. Surpassing even the firmament above, an incarnation of the Dragon Realm's grand sun erupted yet again, dispatching billions upon trillions of fire dragons to incinerate all existence.
Fang Han induced the power of the Dragon Realm grand sun anew.
"Thirty-three times combat power!"
Even the Heavenly Realm prominent figure was staggered in shock, not anticipating that Fang Han would suddenly comprehend the true mysteries underlying the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures.
This set of treasures, acting as artifacts of fortune, harbored endless marvels. To truly seize complete mastery over it, Fang Han was still entirely lacking.
Right now, successfully manifesting thirty-three times combat power in short order was an ingenious notion on his part.
"Hmm?" Fang Qingxue was likewise stupefied. She originally calculated they would sink into an arduous struggle, but had never foreseen Fang Han actually throwing out thirty-three times combat power to tear open the great array.
"Go!"
Any delay would court disaster. Deciding promptly, she notified Fang Han via divine sense to leave immediately and not linger here.
Crackle, crackle… At this moment, though Fang Han loosed thirty-three times combat power and ripped apart the great array, his body resembled porcelain, revealing fissure lines throughout. He even caught the minute realization that densely packed traces also scarred the exterior of the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures. The previous surge of power had been too ferocious, precipitating ruptures in the immortal Dao arrays enclosed deep within the main body itself.
If he enacted the thirty-three times combat power an unrepeated occasion, the immortal Dao laws encapsulated within this set of supreme treasures might likely rupture wholly, or completely succumb to invalidity, thus necessitating re-forging and condensation.
Instantly discharging all the Origin Beginnings Chi stored within his body, he devotedly restored the ruptured traces bearing upon the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures. Correspondingly, he bounded his body upwards, prepared to flee aside Fang Qingxue.
This Heavenly Realm prominent figure was entirely too terrifying; prior to reaching Golden Immortal, completely defeating him stood fundamentally impossible.
Thump, thump, thump!
Thoroughly routed by Fang Han's thirty-three times combat power, the Heavenly Realm prominent figure's giant hand retreated three consecutive paces. An expression of sheer disbelief illustrated itself upon his face. Followingly, it transitioned in moments, substituted instantly by a chilling killing intent.
"Good, very good. No one has ever pushed me back like this. Fang Han, you are the first person; to actually be capable of retreating me. But your Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures are nothing but low-grade immortal artifacts. They can execute the thirty-three times combat power solely once! Otherwise, they will rupture, becoming a localized heap of junk, unless you orchestrate an upgrade to forge them into mid-grade immortal artifacts. However, this is already an overarching and monumental project beyond your ability to complete…" The Heavenly Realm prominent figure's divine sense blanked the sky and concealed the earth, installing blockades afresh to envelop Fang Han and Fang Qingxue yet again for exhaustive extermination.
But this time, it was not enacted so easily.
A faint smile invariably graced Fang Qingxue's visage. Pouring out the divine melody of destiny from her mouth, an unceasing, billowing long river of destiny descended directly from the heavens, sweeping apart the Heavenly Realm prominent figure’s entire array of divine sense.
"This is no longer the Minor Destiny Technique?"
Fang Han's heart lurched. He discerned that Fang Qingxue's Minor Destiny Technique operated radically separate from what he cultivated. That was no longer the power of fate, but a capability decidedly more potent than fate—entirely unresistable, presiding upon the pinnacle of heaven and earth, manipulating the existence and demise, dawn and dusk fortunes, and sheer destiny of all living and non-living entities globally.
The power of fortune, the power of origins, and the power of endings; when confronted by this very power, they seemingly crouched a notch inferior. Very much akin to a body of kings bearing witness before their emperor.
This exact force constituted the genuine towering and supreme origin force within the cosmos, transcending all components, mastering all things globally; maintaining absolute omniscience, yet refraining from overtly evidencing itself within the mortal plane.
Such defined the power of destiny.
"No, Fang Han, this is not the power of destiny; it is still the power of fate. To evolve into destiny necessitates manifold alterations." Emitted from within the force, Fang Qingxue's divine sense was delivered over, "For my entire lifespan, my pursuit lied solely with destiny, facing sheer mortalities beside experiencing unending calamities. This lifetime, I am bound to traverse to the Heavenly Realm and eventually seize destiny precisely within my bare hands!"
"Good, then I shall help you!"
At this interval, Fang Han had already completed repairing the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasures. His supply of Origin Beginnings Chi sat incredibly enormous, and corresponding closely, his personal Mystic Immortal laws exhibited an abnormal robustness. Not parallel to other Mystic Immortals, wherein generating the slightest motion to patch immortal artifacts necessitated damaging their principal origins.
However, presently, he still dared not employ the thirty-three times combat power anew out of dreading treasure ruination which would entail losses superseding his gains broadly.
"Reincarnation of All Heavens!"
Aiding Fang Qingxue aside, he discharged the terminal killer move of Reincarnation of All Heavens. Correspondingly, he catalyzed the Eight Divisions Pagoda, merging cohesively together as one alongside the Dragon Realm's origins.
In a singular flash, exactly like a sweeping tide, the ultimate origin power hailing from the Dragon Realm crashed inwards. Between raising his hand and stepping his foot, he commanded the sheer monumental force corresponding to the entire Dragon Realm. He flattened his oversized hand across the void, smacking outwardly down against the Heavenly Realm prominent figure.
"Buzz!"
Ascending from countless spaces across the Dragon Realm's floor burst pillar-like expanses capturing dragon chi. Covering several hundred millions of miles, the very space essentially formed itself completely inside separate segments representing dragon scales. Countless immeasurably old Holy Spirits inherent directly to the dragon race manifested palpably onto the open air above, directly laying siege en masse atop the Heavenly Realm prominent figure.
Within this passing instance, the entire overarching Dragon Realm established itself as the pronounced enemy against this Heavenly Realm prominent figure unequivocally.
"I stem fundamentally from disaster, birthed precisely contained from within disasters. Whatever territory I march across stands ordained to dispatch trials of sweeping mortalities for this entire mortal realm; humans in the mortal world will solely yield maturity when suffering tests dispatched directly via disaster. Lacking disasters precipitating forth, mortals won't retain awareness pertaining to the pronounced nobility identifying survival complementing ultimate bliss…"
Facing these aggregate assaults, this Heavenly Realm prominent figure’s entire demeanor violently metamorphosed abruptly, capturing incredible solemnity alongside uncompromising gravity. As scriptures resounded steadily through his recited phrasing, with a brisk 'swoosh,' the entire expanse comprising the complete sky above alongside the ground, ocean, additionally merging across the void abruptly altered colors universally. Fang Han's Dragon Realm vital energy met sheer instantaneous suppression directly.
No, this had surpassed subjugation to suppression natively—it was drained utterly hollow, transported purely off space-time thin air outright.
"Leave! Leave quickly! He is activating exactly the core authentic divine power attached to the Heavenly Realm true body natively!" Noticeably, Fang Qingxue's demeanor equally shifted into abrupt severity wildly.
