Chapter 1075: My Brother Fang Han and I Will Act—You All Will Die!
Fang Han, under the alias Fang Yu, had infiltrated the Shengnudian and seemed to have won the favor of Han Xi of the Shengnudian; for this round of the Little Longevity List reshuffling, Han Xi even brought Fang Han along.
Unlike Fang Yu, who entered the Jade Emperor Hall but was not much valued by Hong Tianjing, and was instead planted with the Heart-Access Technique by Hong Tianjing.
At this moment, Hong Tianjing's gaze turned to Fang Han behind Han Xi, his face breaking into a smile as he directly bestowed upon him a Divine Ability.
It was the Heart-Access Technique.
"Since you're Han Xi's disciple, I must also bestow a gift—you can't let the Shengnudian lose face. Fang Yu, from now on, cultivate diligently and serve Han Xi well, understood?"
Hong Tianjing's voice echoed through the hall.
"Yes, Senior Brother Hong."
Fang Han's voice rang out in the hall, sounding deeply reverent toward Hong Tianjing—but Fang Yu could sense that Fang Han now harbored a killing intent toward Hong Tianjing.
One Heart-Access Technique had offended two people at once.
"Hahahaha, Hong Tianjing, you're truly a man of iron will and tender heart—even in cultivation, you never forget to craft magic treasures for Han Xi. I'm almost impressed. But you've distracted yourself; this time, the top spot on the Little Longevity List belongs to me."
At that moment, another violent ripple surged through the sky, and a man appeared—tall and slender, every muscle on his body tightly corded like black iron, clad in a black robe embroidered with the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Zhu Que, Xuan Wu, Huang She, and countless faint demonic deities.
This black robe was a Dao Artifact—and a Mid-Grade Dao Artifact.
Another highly fortunate expert had appeared.
Fang Yu stared at this disciple; though his cultivation base was also at the 10th Stage of Divine Abilities, his body contained a staggering eighty-one Divine Abilities. In the Xuan Huang Great World, such a person would surely rank first on the Longevity Candidate List—Yan Yan Shuiyi, Hua Tiandu, Mo Shuai—they'd be no match.
Of course, before the Three Great Disciples of the Fang Clan, he fell short.
After all, whether Fang Yu himself, or Sister Fang Qingxue, or Brother Fang Han, due to the Huang Quan Holy Water and the Little Destiny Art, acquiring and cultivating Divine Abilities came easily—even a Great Dao like the Great Calamity Art could be cultivated to a high realm within hours if one possessed the Little Destiny Art.
Moreover, soaking a Jin Dan in Huang Quan Holy Water allowed one to steal others' Divine Abilities and Xu Yuan Qi for oneself—cultivating Divine Abilities became effortless.
Still, Sima Chong's ability to cultivate eighty-one Divine Abilities alone proved his genius; given time, such a person could grow into a legend renowned across the heavens, surpassing even the cultivation speed of the elder generation.
"Fang Yu, this is Senior Brother Sima Chong, who ranked second on the Little Longevity List three years ago, from the Tai Xu Hall. Though not as powerful as Senior Brother Hong, his body is terrifying—he has perfected the Supreme Yang Taiji Body, capable of twisting at will and tearing apart mountains; even a Low-Grade Dao Artifact cannot break his flesh. He is one who can slay demonic gods even within the Divine Ability Secret Realm."
Nearby, Han Xi introduced the tall, slender man.
"Truly astonishing! I've never seen anything like this—your disciples of the Wuji Star Palace are so extraordinarily gifted that they can slay ancient titans even in the Divine Ability Secret Realm! In our Chaotic Continent, ancient titans tower above all like gods; for a Divine Ability Secret Realm cultivator to even dream of killing one is considered heresy!"
Far off, Fang Han wore an expression of stunned awe, as if witnessing something beyond comprehension.
"Brother Fang Yu, they can do such things because they're heavenly geniuses. You? Cultivate slowly, step by step. Don't even think about challenging ancient titans—learn from Senior Brother Hong or Senior Brother Sima, and you'll die."
A female disciple smiled faintly.
"Sister's advice is correct."
Fang Han nodded vigorously.
Fang Yu watched from afar, finding it hilarious—Brother Fang Han was born to act, even better than him.
He stood behind Hong Tianjing, simply watching Fang Han perform.
"Hmph! Sima Chong, you'll never defeat me."
At that moment, Hong Tianjing let out a cold snort.
"Is that so? Three years ago, I lost to you not because my cultivation was inferior, but because of your High-Grade Dao Artifact, the Tuo Luo Jing Zhuang. This time, I will defeat you—I'll use you as a stepping stone to step directly into the Longevity Secret Realm."
Sima Chong's face broke into a smile.
"Oh? It seems you've had quite a few encounters in these three years? Did you acquire a High-Grade Dao Artifact? Even so, do you truly believe you're my match? This time, as the Little Longevity List is redrawn, you'll fail again at my hands—I'll leave you with an unshakable mental demon and shadow. Opposing me is the greatest failure of your life."
Hong Tianjing spoke slowly, and everyone could feel the immense confidence in his words.
"We'll see who the victor is—wait and see! Hmph!"
Sima Chong sneered, said no more, and stepped directly to the front of the Taihe Hall.
"These two are at it again. But this time, we must claim our share—the top ten will each receive a Dao Artifact; we cannot miss this!"
Another wave of powerful magic power surged forward—these individuals had cultivated between fifty and sixty Divine Abilities, and even the weakest had mastered over forty.
"Lu Yun, these are the top ten on the Little Longevity List—that one is Yuan Gang, that one is Huang Huang Yunxian, that one is Zhou Houchao—all have had countless encounters. But before our Jade Emperor Hall's Senior Brother Hong, they're utterly crushed, unable to stir even a ripple."
Shen Ping introduced them, recounting their techniques, cultivated Divine Abilities, and the fame of their encounters.
The outstanding disciples of the Wuji Star Palace each had countless encounters—for instance, Huang Huang Yunxian, when he was just a teenager, discovered a cavern in the Wuji Great World, retrieved a Low-Grade Dao Artifact, and obtained a supreme Divine Ability; soon after returning, he reached the Jin Dan Realm, shocking many.
A Jin Dan expert at age fifteen was exceedingly rare anywhere.
Now, he too had reached the 10th Stage of Divine Abilities and cultivated over fifty Divine Abilities.
Fang Yu's face showed astonishment; finally, he observed quietly, entering with Shen Ping into the outer hall of the Taihe Hall and standing silently in a corner.
The inner hall of the Taihe Hall was vast, its space extending outward for at least hundreds of miles; at its deepest point stood rows of Wang Zuo, upon which sat many ancient titans, some even reaching the Immortal Body realm.
The Wuji Star Palace's three hundred and sixty halls—nearly all their hall masters had arrived.
Most hall masters were at the Immortal Body realm; this level was perfectly suited for governing a hall, as Immortal Body cultivators possessed far greater survival capacity than those of the Wan Shou realm, making them harder to kill. Those who reached the third stage of Longevity—the Cave Heaven realm—often became Grand Elders and no longer involved themselves in worldly affairs, so many hall masters resigned once they reached the third stage of Longevity, devoting themselves entirely to cultivation.
For matters like the revision of the Little Longevity List, no Cave Heaven realm experts participated; only Immortal Body hall masters presided here.
When all the young disciples had arrived, one of the hall masters spoke.
"You are the most outstanding young disciples of the Wuji Star Palace, representing our future. The coming era will not be peaceful—it will likely be drenched in blood and fire. You have many tasks: you must utterly exterminate the demonic races beneath the earth, bringing the entire Wuji Great World fully under our Wuji Star Palace's control—that is step one. Step two: our Wuji Star Palace must dominate the Thousand Great Worlds—expand, conquer. The Xuan Huang Great World, the Ice Cold Great World—all must be conquered! This requires your efforts, young disciples—do you understand?"
The hall master's face wore a solemn expression, tinged with fanaticism; when his words ended, every disciple roared in unison, as if infected by his passion.
"We swear to fight to the death for the glory of the Wuji Star Palace, to elevate the Wuji Great World to the forefront of the Thousand Great Worlds!"
Each disciple roared fiercely.
"Good. That's the spirit. Today's Little Longevity List ranking is to determine which of our disciples are the most outstanding—our Wuji Star Palace will spare no effort to nurture them. You must show your strongest strength; the sect will not hesitate to reward you!"
The hall master continued.
"Yes!"
"We will cultivate diligently and break through to the Longevity Secret Realm as soon as possible!"
