Chapter 1103: When Fang Qingxue Became a Mother!

Three thousand great Dao arts: Great Huang Art, Three thousand great Dao arts: Great Long Hu Art, Three thousand great Dao arts: Great Order Art, Three thousand great Dao arts: Great Sheji Art.

Under Fang Qingxue's life-forcing, Fang Yu also instantly brought these great Dao arts to Great Perfection.

Originally, his cultivation base had reached the Longevity Fourth Realm of Zhouguang, allowing him to draw infinite Xu Yuan Qi from various dimensional spaces, making the cultivation of any Divine Ability extremely rapid—but great Dao arts like Great Order Art and Great Sheji Art are not so easily cultivated.

After all, the power of Order and the power of Sheji do not belong to nature nor to any single dimensional space's Xu Yuan Qi; these great Dao arts are intrinsically tied to civilization and human society—understanding them requires walking among mortals, just as the First True Disciple of Qunxing Sect, Xing Mie Xie, spent centuries among humanity to comprehend "A Sigh Through a Thousand Autumns," thereby creating a Divine Ability.

Had Fang Yu not had Fang Qingxue's aid, even if he obtained Great Order Art and Great Sheji Art, reaching Minor Perfection would have taken several jiazi, and achieving Great Perfection would certainly have required over a thousand years.

But now, they are already at Great Perfection.

Among the Three Thousand Great Dao arts, the life-forcing path of Great Destiny Art remains invincible.

Continuing deeper into the Furious Thunder Absolute Prison, the group pressed on in their cultivation.

In recent days, Fang Yu had acquired many great Dao arts from the Emperor's Pen, various divine clans, dragon clans, and Fomen cultivators, and now he imparted them all at once to Fang Qingxue.

Thus, Fang Qingxue also learned: Three thousand great Dao arts: Great Wanxiang Art, Three thousand great Dao arts: Great Blessing Art, Three thousand great Dao arts: Great Xueqiao Art, Three thousand great Dao arts: Great Luling Art, Great Kurong Art, Great Jietuo Art, Great Chaodu Art, Great Judu Art, Great Paoxiao Art, Great Fengyun Art, Great Rongyao Art, Great Wanshen Art…

"Fang Yu senior brother, you've cultivated so many great Dao arts in recent days—it's unimaginable."

Feng Yaoguang watched in utter shock; she had not been separated from Fang Yu senior brother for long, yet he had acquired so many great Dao arts—so many that even one of them, if obtained by a cultivator, could instantly elevate them, granting countless advantages.

For instance, the great Dao art of Great Kurong: one year withers, one year flourishes—spring brings all things to prosperity, winter brings all things to dryness; within this cycle of withering and flourishing lies the mystery of heaven and earth's vital flow, profound understanding of one's physical body, enabling the cultivator's body to continually ascend through cycles of withering and flourishing, reaching an extremely terrifying state.

This great Dao art is undoubtedly an arcane method for cultivating the physical body, and not only that—it greatly benefits the spirit as well. If a cultivator acquires this great Dao art while still in the Divine Ability Secret Realm, their physical strength will be several times, even dozens of times, greater than others of the same realm, and the magic power and Daoist Gang Qi they cultivate will be of vastly superior quality; Kurong Daoist Gang Qi can instantly obliterate the vast majority of Daoist Gang Qi in heaven and earth, and Kurong power inherently contains the principles of Yin-Yang and the laws of heaven and earth, allowing the cultivator to effortlessly enter the 4th Stage of Divine Abilities, Yin-Yang Realm, and the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities, Heavenly Man Realm.

"Too mysterious—truly shocking."

Although Feng Yaoguang cultivated the Hongmeng Heavenly Dao, observing these great Dao arts, she could still sense their immense power.

"Great Rongyao Art is slightly inferior—too much glory tends to make one arrogant; disciples of Taiyi Sect all seem to have cultivated Great Rongyao Art…"

Feng Yaoguang thought to herself.

Fang Qingxue said nothing, simply expending life force; she was now a legendary being of Longevity Third Realm, Cave Heaven, with near-infinite lifespan—spending tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years of life was no difficulty for her.

More crucially, some great Dao arts, once cultivated to Great Perfection by her, actually increased her lifespan further, forming a virtuous cycle—such as Great Kurong Art and Great Huang Art, which can extend her life.

In continuous cultivation, Fang Qingxue's aura rose steadily, her magic power and lifespan strengthened again, while Fang Yu's strength also continuously improved—every great Dao art Fang Qingxue brought to Great Perfection, he now also cultivated to Great Perfection.

All the great Dao arts he had acquired reached Great Perfection!

"Senior sister Qingxue, my magic power has now reached ninety-nine hundred ninety-nine Ancient Heavenly Dragon power. This seems to have hit a limit."

Within Fang Yu's body, all the great Dao arts he had previously learned and those newly brought to Great Perfection were now circulating: Great Wuxing Art, Great Zainan Art, Great Benyuan Art, Great Hun Dun Art, Great Yin-Yang Art, Great Xingchen Art, Great Qie Art, Great Shalu Art, Great Tunshi Art, Great Bengmie Art, Great Zhaohuan Art, Great Guiwang Art, Great Xuwang Art, Great Powang Art, Great Wuwang Art, Great Jiwang Art, Great Zhenwang Art, Great Dongwang Art, as well as newly comprehended great Dao arts like Great Sheji Art, Great Blessing Art, Great Xueqiao Art, Great Luling Art, Great Kurong Art, Great Jietuo Art, and others—all swirling within his Cave Heaven, each circulation causing a new transformation, as if nurturing a new great Dao law.

One step—only one step!

And he could fully reach the next realm: Longevity Fifth Realm, Creation Realm!

Fang Yu watched as the Five Elements, Huang Qi, Yin-Yang Qi, Hun Dun Qi, and Starlight forces circulated; each circulation nourished the Time Law and Space Law, making him seem like a supreme Heavenly Dao, countless mysteries shifting—just one step away from the Heavenly Mechanism.

"Yu brother, you have great fortune—I cannot imagine how you could cultivate so many great Dao arts in such a short time, nor how your power has already reached ninety-nine hundred ninety-nine Ancient Heavenly Dragon power. It seems that if you gain just one more Ancient Heavenly Dragon power, your magic power will reach ten thousand Ancient Heavenly Dragon power? Such power can alter fate, elevate one's station."

Fang Qingxue looked at Fang Yu, her eyes filled with curiosity.

She truly could not imagine how swiftly her Yu brother had advanced since entering the Cultivation World—how in such a brief time he had reached the limit of Zhouguang Realm and cultivated ninety-nine hundred ninety-nine Ancient Heavenly Dragon power.

One more Dragon power—that would be ten thousand Dragon power, or one trillion Horse power, one zhao Horse power.

Zhaō means omen, Heavenly Mechanism, destiny, fate, fortune.

Ancient Dao texts record that only experts who reach Longevity Sixth Realm, Heavenly Position Realm, can possibly cultivate zhaō-level power; when a cultivator possesses zhaō-level power, they can alter their own fate, effortlessly foretell Heavenly Mechanism, anticipate enemies' moves, and create countless Divine Abilities—even Supreme Divine Abilities.

In the Cultivation World, every expert who cultivates zhaō-level magic power and reaches Heavenly Position Realm is virtually always a former Supreme Zhang Sect of the Immortal or Demon Dao, a Great Emperor; in this generation, even the current Supreme Zhang Sects often cannot reach Heavenly Position Realm, remaining stuck at Longevity Fifth Realm Creation Realm, or even Longevity Fourth Realm.

"I'm still a bit short of zhaō-level power—it seems I must break through to Creation Realm to achieve it. Senior sister Qingxue, let's first obtain the Top-Grade artifact within this Furious Thunder Absolute Prison."

Fang Yu smiled.

"That Top-Grade artifact—I feel it was forged by your past life, the Thunder Mother Heavenly Lord."

Feng Yaoguang spoke: "Pity, your memories are lost too much—you have no recollection of your past lives. But if we obtain this Top-Grade artifact, you will truly be immensely wealthy."

As she spoke, a Royal Heaven Eye appeared on Feng Yaoguang's forehead, seemingly capable of perceiving all heavens. "We descend five thousand li, then rotate nine times according to Jiugong method, then follow the Bagua Zhou Tian in a circuitous path."

"Mm."

The group advanced together, passing through multiple parallel dimensions, twisting and turning, rotating for an unknown duration—suddenly, the air before them lightened, the thunderstorm vanished entirely, and a vast city appeared.

This immense city was entirely composed of stones covered in ancient thunder patterns, as if a single entity; the thunder-patterned stones were profoundly mysterious, vast, ancient, and weathered, radiating a distant primordial aura—as if not of this world.

"That's… Immortal Thunder Stone, found only in the Immortal Realm—so this Thunderstorm City truly may be a treasure you forged in your past life in the Immortal Realm," Feng Yaoguang exclaimed.

The colossal city stretched boundlessly in the void, its full size indeterminable; half of it was submerged in the void, half exposed—each slight tremor released countless bolts of lightning, each capable of tearing the earth, evaporating oceans; some lightning bolts were even ten thousand li thick, sufficient to shatter small planets outright.

Indeed, before this thunderous citadel, small planets meant nothing—move the city, and countless planets would be instantly destroyed.

"What an incredible Top-Grade artifact—it dwarfs even Yuhua Sect's Yuhua Tiangong and Exalted Linglong's Xumi Jin Shan in grandeur; its terror places it among the elite of Top-Grade artifacts!"

Fang Han gazed upon it and spoke.

He was now a legendary expert himself, capable of estimating the power of Top-Grade artifacts.

"Thunderstorm City—I feel a deep familiarity. The patterns on it seem bound to me by flesh and blood."

Fang Qingxue stood before Thunderstorm City, touched the ground, sparking a cascade of lightning, her entire body filled with indescribable comfort.

Yet her voice carried an ancient, weathered tone.

"Who dares intrude upon my domain!"

At that moment, a child's voice echoed from deep within Thunderstorm City—a little girl clad in a simple robe patterned with lightning appeared in the void; her entire body trembled with thunder energy, and as she appeared, an endless ocean of liquid thunder formed behind her.

These melted thunder waters were more ferocious than the external lightning, condensed a thousandfold or ten thousandfold—each strand could kill ancient titans, destroy continents; any immortal-body expert entering would instantly evaporate.

When this childlike being turned her gaze upon them, both Fang Han and Feng Yaoguang felt intense danger—even Fang Yu sensed peril—but Fang Qingxue let out a piercing, resounding cry: "Chan Nannan—is it you? You're still here!"

"Is it you? Mother! Mother, you've finally appeared before me!"

The childlike being, upon seeing Fang Qingxue, let out a series of ecstatic cries, overcome with emotion.

"Mother?"

Fang Han froze—he had not imagined Fang Qingxue had become a mother?

"Yes, Nannan was created by me in the past—she has always called me Mother."

Fang Qingxue's face showed an excited expression. "I can't remember how I was separated from her back then. It seems I ran into danger and left her behind first, and after that I don't remember anything that happened."

"Mama. You finally appeared."

That Chan Nannan rushed over in an instant, arriving right in front of Fang Qingxue, Fang Yu, Fang Han, and Feng Yaoguang. Immediately Fang Yu felt an enormous pressure. This one looked like a little girl, but the moment she reached Fang Yu, he sensed that this little girl's own strength was at least at the Longevity Sixth Layer Heaven Position realm, even approaching the Longevity Seventh Layer Realm King realm — stronger than the average Demon Sect Great Emperor or Zhang Sect Supreme. Within her body, terrifying auras radiated from every part; it seemed a casual wave of her hand could annihilate the myriad heavens.

Unless Fang Yu burned the Chaos Tower, or Fang Han activated the Huang Quan Diagram, there might be a chance to stand against this little girl.

But he did not make a move.

Because this extremely powerful existence did not go berserk. Instead she threw herself into Fang Qingxue's arms, tears pattering down as they fell, and in a very aggrieved tone began to act coquettishly: "Mama, why have you only come to find Nannan now? Nannan has been so lonely these days. Nannan has been listening to Mama's words the whole time, didn't run around, and cultivated peacefully. Also, Mama, why is your strength so weak now? Have you not recovered yet? But it doesn't matter — Nannan can protect Mama. Whoever is not good to Mama, I'll beat them to death!"

"..."

Fang Yu and Fang Han watched this powerful spirit — comparable to the Longevity Sixth Layer Heaven Position realm, even the Seventh Layer Realm King realm — throw herself into Fang Qingxue's arms, calling out "Mama" over and over while acting coquettishly, and didn't know what to say. With this, could Fang Qingxue now stroll sideways through the myriad heavens and myriad worlds?

One had to know that although the Huang Quan Diagram magic treasure was also a top-grade Dao artifact, it had been injured and had flaws; Yan's strength was only comparable to an Undying Body. Unless he obtained the Earth Emperor Book, his strength could keep rising. But the spirit of the Thunder City, Chan Nannan, had no damage at all, and over all these years had been cultivating in the Doomsday Graveyard, accumulating who knows how much power.

The older the top-grade Dao artifact, the more powerful it was.

A spirit plus the main body, plus enough Pure Yang Pills — wouldn't that be enough to take on existences at the Longevity Eighth Layer, even the Longevity Ninth Layer Void Immortal realm?

"It's all Mama's fault, leaving Nannan here all alone."

Fang Qingxue stroked Chan Nannan's head. "Fortunately you weren't captured by bad people. Otherwise, Mama doesn't know how sad she would have been."

"Mama, I've been listening to Mama's words all along. These years I cultivated peacefully, didn't move a step, didn't dare run around, afraid of being caught by bad people. But now Nannan has cultivated very powerfully. Here I ate plenty of thunder, Heavenly Demon Gods, and condensed my Dao techniques very powerfully."

Chan Nannan said seriously, "We'll never be separated again from now on, Mama. No matter where we are, we'll never be separated."

"Alright, my good Nannan, we'll never be separated again. Oh right, let me introduce you. This is my junior brother from this mortal life, Yu-brother. You must call him Uncle, understand?"

Fang Qingxue introduced Fang Yu to Chan Nannan.

"Nannan, since you are Senior Sister Qingxue's daughter, of course I must give you some meeting gifts. This is one trillion Pure Yang Pills. Nannan, you use them first."

Seeing Chan Nannan's gaze turn toward him, Fang Yu smiled and was not stingy at all. He reached out directly with a grab and sent over one trillion Pure Yang Pills for this little girl to use in her cultivation.

"Oh my!"

A full one trillion Pure Yang Pills were transmitted over. On Nannan's face appeared a look of shock, and even a bit of bashfulness.

"Mama, how does Uncle Yu have so many pills? His cultivation base is only at the Longevity Fourth Layer Chrono-Light realm. How can he possess so many pills?"

This little girl was completely stunned, then a look of joy appeared on her face. "Uncle Yu, from now on whoever is not good to you, I'll beat them to death!"
