Chapter 1085

"The Heavenly Wu Zhiku?"

Within Mount Qingqiu, Fang Yu and Fang Han heard the Seventh Princess name a treasure repository.

The Heavenly Wu Zhiku.

"Yes, the Heavenly Wu Zhiku. Your Yuhua Sect once had a senior disciple named Zhou Tian, who was originally the top senior brother—but then Brother Fang Yu rose to prominence, leaving Zhou Tian in an extremely awkward position; he has not returned to Yuhua Sect since, instead cultivating within the Eternal Divine Furnace of the Taiyi Sect. Brother Fang Yu must not underestimate Zhou Tian, for he received the legacy of Wu Xianzun. Should he ally with the Taiyi Sect and claim the treasures of the Heavenly Wu Zhiku, he will rise swiftly and cause considerable trouble, even possibly make a comeback."

The Seventh Princess spoke.

"Zhou Tian? I've never underestimated him. But no matter how he changes, I will crush him utterly."

Fang Yu smiled, his gaze turning to the Seventh Princess. "Seventh Princess clearly knows much about the affairs of the Yellow Great World."

"Naturally. The Yellow Great World is the closest of the Thousand Great Worlds to the Immortal Realm. In ancient times, it was even ranked number one among the Thousand Great Worlds, brimming with countless treasures. Now, many experts from across the great worlds are watching it closely."

The Seventh Princess smiled. "Within the Yellow Great World, the most famous treasures are the Seven Palaces, Three Repositories, and One Secret Vault. Have you heard of them, friend?"

"The Hongmeng Secret Vault, the Heavenly Wu Zhiku, the Huang Quan Treasure Vault, and the Ethereal Vault—that's the Three Repositories and One Secret Vault. As for the Seven Palaces, the Taiyuan Immortal Palace is one of them; the rest, I've rarely seen."

Fang Yu's expression shifted slightly as he spoke.

"Brother Fang Yu truly knows well—this greatly impresses Seventh Princess."

The Seventh Princess, hearing Fang Yu's words, showed admiration on her face. "Aside from the Taiyuan Immortal Palace, the remaining six Immortal Palaces are the Red Cloud Immortal Palace, the Bodhi Immortal Palace, the Iron Blood Immortal Palace, the Dulu Immortal Palace, the Pojun Immortal Palace, and the Sage Immortal Palace. Alas, we've only heard their names—never obtained their tokens. It's a great regret. Only the Heavenly Wu Zhiku among the Three Repositories might still offer us some opportunity."

As they spoke, they arrived at a pink palace. The Seventh Princess gestured, and a group of fox-folk women began to dance gracefully, exuding alluring fragrances. Each fox-folk woman was enchanting, radiating seduction—even cultivators who had trained for a thousand years might not resist their allure.

Yet neither Fang Yu nor Fang Han, both having reached the realms of Longevity Fourth and Third Reaches by comprehending the primordial essence of heaven and earth, were the slightest bit bewitched by their charms.

"Good. Very good."

Fang Han observed them with interest, occasionally nodding, as if merely appreciating their beauty.

"Are you interested in our fox-folk women? If you are, I can personally select some to serve you. Our fox-folk women revere strength above all—warriors like you, they'd gladly cling to you."

The Seventh Princess waved her hand, and over a hundred beautiful fox-folk women lined up in a row, leaving Fang Yu and Fang Han free to choose.

"Base worldly desires hold no meaning for me. These women do not belong to my world; each has her own destiny. Forcing them to follow me would be pointless."

Fang Yu flicked his fingers, and space-energy flowed around him like rippling water. Within this seemingly calm stream lay countless spatial vortices, where space-energy condensed and transformed in profoundly mysterious ways—step into it, and you might be transported ten thousand miles away, or sliced into nothingness by countless layers of spatial fractures.

"Your cultivation has reached such a level!"

Upon seeing the spatial ripples, the Seventh Princess's expression changed drastically. Her heart surged with shock—she felt an overwhelming danger, as if merely stepping into that river-like flow would mean instant death, unless she summoned her top-grade Dao artifact.

Even with her top-grade Dao artifact, she might still be trapped forever within this ripple.

She immediately realized Fang Yu's strength surpassed her understanding.

"What is this water ripple? Why does it feel so dangerous?"

"I don't understand it—but even Seventh Princess's expression changed!"

"If we could enter that ripple, would we earn Brother Fang Yu's favor? I'd be willing to try!"

"Brother Fang Yu is destined to become a great figure. If entering that flow earns his favor, even at great cost, I'd pay it gladly."

Nearby, some fox-folk women also watched the ripple. Some had reached the 7th Stage of Divine Abilities and Golden Core Realm; others were only at the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities and Heavenly Man Realm. The most powerful among them had reached the 10th Stage of Divine Abilities—the Realm of Life—and were elite even among the fox-folk.

One fox spirit who had reached the 10th Stage of Divine Abilities—Realm of Life—now stepped forward, hoping to earn Brother Fang Yu's favor.

"You may all withdraw. Brother Fang Yu does not belong to your world."

The Seventh Princess spoke at once.

"Princess, I wish to try."

The fox-folk woman named Tu Yu did not retreat.

"Step back, Tu Yu. Do you know what this ripple truly is? It is condensed spatial law—immensely dense spatial law. Not even you, but even I, at the peak of Immortal Body, would die instantly without a top-grade Dao artifact to protect me. Your cultivation is 10th Stage of Divine Abilities; Brother Fang Yu's is Longevity Third Reach—Dongtian Realm. He is a legend among legends, beyond your reach."

The Seventh Princess said.

"What? He's already in Dongtian Realm?!"

Tu Yu's face turned pale. She had never imagined this seemingly young figure had reached Longevity Third Reach—Dongtian Realm. Even among the fox-folk, the seven heavenly princesses still remained at the peak of Immortal Body, far from Dongtian Realm. Crossing this threshold might take thousands, tens of thousands, even thirty or fifty thousand years.

And yet this Brother Fang Yu had already reached Longevity Third Reach—Dongtian Realm? Was he even more gifted than the princesses?

Tu Yu immediately realized she had no right to follow such a figure, and stepped back.

"Enough. Seventh Princess, let's speak of the Heavenly Wu Zhiku. I know some things about it too. If your secrets aren't compelling enough, this alliance may not come to pass."

Fang Yu sat down. Before him, the water ripple flowed slowly, revealing countless mysteries—as if each microscopic particle connected to some void within the Boundless Great World, as if all the Boundless Great World's secrets were manifesting within this ripple.

He had just slain Hong Hong Tianjing. According to the flow of destiny, Hong Hong Tianjing's vast destiny likely flowed into his body. Hong Hong Tianjing was a destiny-bearer of the Boundless Great World, wherever he went, treasures followed. Thus, Fang Yu here sought to perceive Zhou Tian, to see whether his own destiny and fortune had improved.

"Regarding the secrets of the Heavenly Wu Zhiku, I'm certain we know something unique you don't. Millennia ago, one of our fox-folk ancestors had a deep bond with a disciple of Wu Xianzun, and thus learned many unique secrets—such as the Heavenly Wu Zhiku having a true vault and a false vault."

The Seventh Princess gazed at Fang Yu, then glanced again at the spatial ripple. Her own cultivation was at the peak of Immortal Body, and she was deeply intrigued by the ripple.

"True vault, false vault?"

"Yes. Only the true vault holds peerless Dao artifacts and the Key of Huangshen. The false vault holds nothing—it is a deadly trap. Even cultivators at Longevity Seventh Reach who enter the false vault meet only death."

After revealing this, the Seventh Princess lowered her voice. "To show our sincerity, I'll tell you another secret: the Taiyi Sect has plotted a grand conspiracy against the false vault. Zhou Tian will lead several elders—even the Zhang Sect—into the false vault. At that moment, your Yuhua Sect will face annihilation! How's that for sincerity?"

"That information is indeed sincere. But no one in heaven or earth can ambush the Zhang Sect of Yuhua Sect."

Fang Yu listened, unshaken, and smiled faintly. "Still, I can cooperate with you."

"Excellent. Since you cultivate the Great Primordial Art, you are connected to Wu Xianzun. Once inside the Heavenly Wu Zhiku, many seals will not activate."

The Seventh Princess's face brightened. Her gaze shifted to Fang Han beside her. "I've heard Brother Fang Han obtained the Huangquanmo Sect's talisman and the Huang Quan Map. Our fox-folk can assist you in claiming the treasures of the Huang Quan Treasure Vault. This alliance over the Heavenly Wu Zhiku is merely a good beginning."

"The Huang Quan Treasure Vault?"
