Chapter 179: My second pot of gold is right here

The talisman of the World-Transcending King Buddha had actually been obtained by Fang Yu.

That this matter had truly succeeded made Fang Yu quite happy.

He naturally knew that this talisman itself was a scheme. Although the Red Abyss Demon Venerable was an ancient demon venerable at the tenth level of Longevity, the True Immortal realm, the World-Transcending King Buddha was a King of Immortals; if his talisman had truly wanted to suppress someone to death, the Red Abyss Demon Venerable would have perished long ago.

Yet the Red Abyss Demon Venerable was living perfectly well, and this talisman seemed obtainable by anyone. Fang Yu had just given it a try, and thus he had truly obtained this talisman.

They were both of the Fang family, after all; Fang Yu and Fang Han did not seem to be that different, did they?

Fang Yu naturally could not fathom the thoughts of those existences, but he could ponder them a little.

In any case, he had truly obtained the World-Transcending King Buddha's talisman.

This talisman contained countless mysteries. Of course, with Fang Yu's current strength, he could only sense that there was truly a path leading to the outside world within this talisman. Now, as long as he activated the talisman, he could exit from the Five Elements Land and reach the Profound Yellow Great World.

Since that was the case, Fang Yu was, on the contrary, in no rush to leave.

He was currently penniless. In the past years, he had slain some enemies, including the Forty Great Bandits from overseas and the God Race, and the benefits given to him by the Exalted Exalted Exalted Exalted Linglong Blessed Land; added together, it only amounted to twenty thousand Nascent Soul Pills. These days, he had been cultivating in the Five Elements Land, and there was also his reward to Fang Han; now, he had a total of only seventeen thousand-plus Nascent Soul Pills.

This amount of wealth was truly too meager.

Placed in an auction in the outside world, he could buy almost nothing.

And the Five Elements Land was a good place where treasures were everywhere. Since he had come here, he naturally had to capture some more Five Elements demonic beasts here, seal them, and auction them off when the time came.

The Five Elements Sacred Beasts of this Five Elements Land were, after all, extremely valuable.

Therefore, Fang Yu instantly restrained all his energy and traveled through the Five Elements Land.

One hundred thousand miles away from the center of the Five Elements Land, there was a great mountain. The mountain was covered in fire-red rocks, and clusters of flames rose up within the mountain.

There were actually three Vermilion Birds in the mountain.

The three Vermilion Birds were in one mountain; throughout the past years, almost no other demonic beasts had dared to come and provoke this mountain. Even the water-type Sacred Beast, the Black Tortoise, would have to flee in a panic when facing the siege of these three Vermilion Birds.

But on this very day, a Five Emperors Canopy suddenly descended upon one of the Vermilion Birds, and the terrifying Five Emperors Seal sealed that Vermilion Bird in an instant.

"What? An enemy attack?"

The other two Vermilion Birds immediately let out incomparably furious sounds, but before they could react, another Five Emperors Canopy suppressed them, sealing both of those Vermilion Birds as well.

"Three Vermilion Birds, not bad."

A voice rang out here, then gradually disappeared.

And Fang Yu had already arrived at the next location.

This time, the one to suffer was a Desolate Snake, whose strength was extremely powerful, comparable to an expert at the seventh level of the supernatural, the Golden Core realm, but in front of Fang Yu, it could no longer stir up any trouble.

Another Black Tortoise was sealed.

Another White Tiger was sealed.

Another three thousand fire crows were sealed.

Another three thousand wood apes were sealed.

……

As Fang Yu sealed more and more things, he also discovered a problem: these sealed Sacred Beasts and demonic beasts would also struggle. If there were too many, it would instead affect his strength. After all, for him to seal so many Five Elements Sacred Beasts comparable to the Golden Core realm with his own power was by no means an easy task.

His magic power could not be spread too thin, even though his magic power was more than a hundred times stronger than that of a Celestial realm expert at the same level.

Fang Yu knew that he should leave now; it was also time to digest these benefits.

"This is truly a rich land..."

Fang Yu activated the Five Elements Spirit Talisman, and immediately the world spun; a space-time tunnel appeared before Fang Yu.

Fang Yu did not hesitate and passed through this space tunnel.

If someone were to look from the infinite starry sky at this moment, they would discover a folded black line shuttling between many stars. Between those two stars, there was a distance of tens of billions or hundreds of billions of miles, but this folded black line instantly traversed hundreds or thousands of stars, flying toward the center of the universe, toward a vast, endless world of profound yellow color.

That vast, profound yellow world was precisely the Profound Yellow Great World.

The Profound Yellow Great World was like a boundless, oval-shaped egg, suspended in the center of the universe. Its massive volume surpassed any star; even if hundreds of billions of stars were pulled down and merged together, they would not be as large as the Profound Yellow Great World.

The entire Profound Yellow Great World was layered, one level upon another; no one knew how many spaces were hidden within, and each layer hid infinite mysteries.

And outside the Profound Yellow Great World, it was wrapped in infinite nebulae. Each nebula consisted of hundreds of billions of stars, and countless living beings existed upon them. Within those nebulae, there were even more mysterious voids.

The entire universe was of unknown size, and no one knew how many species or how many cultivators there were. Every moment, no one knew how many legendary stories were happening.

And that black line traveling through the folded space was the space-time tunnel created by Fang Yu's spirit talisman.

The Five Elements Land was originally an infinite distance away from the Profound Yellow Great World; relying on human flight was far from possible. Only by relying on spatial faults could one perform instantaneous displacement.

This spirit talisman, however, could open up such a space-time tunnel, allowing Fang Yu to shuttle through with incomparable speed.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Just after Fang Yu had waited for a moment in the pitch-black tunnel, countless sounds of wind were transmitted from the outside, and then a bright light appeared at the end of the tunnel. Fang Yu crossed over in one go and discovered that he had returned to the front of the Savage God Temple, just one step away from deep within the Five Elements Land.

"Finally returned to the Profound Yellow Great World."

Fang Yu looked at the familiar place and knew that he had truly returned to the Profound Yellow Great World; no accidents had occurred during this interstellar journey.

And the Five Elements Land could also be "seen" by him.

When Fang Yu's spiritual sense penetrated the Five Elements Spirit Talisman, he saw a tunnel leading to the depths of the Five Elements Land. He could even get a rough idea of the many mountains, rivers, dangerous zones, and even some places filled with demonic energy above.

If he wanted to return to the Five Elements Land now, he could do so immediately.

This meant that he could now enter and exit the Five Elements Land at will, without any obstruction.

This was a very good thing. As long as he digested all the benefits he had obtained in the Five Elements Land this time, he could continue to obtain many more benefits.

"Now, it is also time to go to an auction. It seems that this place is not far from the Great Xuan Empire."

Fang Yu's thoughts stirred, and he pondered what he should do next.

His realm was currently the fifth level of the supernatural, the Celestial realm; he had to cultivate enough supernatural powers, and cultivate each one to the level of great success or great perfection, so that he could step into the sixth level of the supernatural, the Return to One realm.

Among the many supernatural powers he was currently cultivating, the Great Five Elements Art, which was the Five Emperors Great Demon supernatural power, could be said to be five supreme supernatural powers, or it could be said to be a Great Dao; it was the foundation of his existence.

With the Great Five Elements Art as a pearl before him, among the eight great supernatural powers of the Feather Sect, all the Five Elements supernatural powers were excluded, and there were also the Purple Lightning Yin Thunder Blade, the Heavenly Cold Profound Underworld Force, and the Nine Palaces Divine Movement Art.

As for the supernatural powers obtained in the Shrouding the Heavens world, they were not too many; the inheritance of the Natural Dao on Zhuofeng counted as one. As for the few hundred words in the Three-Life Bronze Coffin, they seemed not to count as supernatural powers.

He had indeed obtained quite a few great supernatural powers and supreme supernatural powers in the Perfect World, even things comparable to the Three Thousand Great Daos: the Grass Sword Art, the Willow Deity Precious Art, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Technique, and the Original True Explanation were all quite good. As for those precious arts inherited by races, they could only be considered great supernatural powers; the concept of how to cultivate them to great perfection was somewhat vague.

After all, the saying that one could cultivate great supernatural powers to great perfection by absorbing essence in the Perfect World did not seem to exist.

And the many supernatural powers cultivated by the Cave Profound Daoist had to be cultivated, especially one of the Three Thousand Great Daos he left behind: the Great Cutting Art!

Although it could not compare to the Three Thousand Great Daos' Great Five Elements Art, this was the first of the Three Thousand Great Daos that Fang Yu had obtained, so he should cultivate it well and reach the level of great perfection.

Therefore, while pondering, Fang Yu flew toward the direction of the Great Xuan Empire.

The Great Xuan Empire had many legends; it was rumored that there was a huge market in the Great Xuan Empire where any rare treasure or precious material could be bought. There were even legends that some cultivators had gone treasure hunting there and found fragments of ancient Dao artifacts.

Compared to the various auction houses of the Great Xuan Empire, the Ten Thousand Return Sea Market set up by the Ten Thousand Return Immortal Island was simply not worth mentioning.

Fang Yu's flight speed was extremely fast; in the void, he was a white line. After he had flown for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, a large expanse of white appeared in the distance. These whites were actually city walls, a few hundred people high, spotless.

Within the city walls, tall buildings rose from the ground.

Looking from afar, the city was filled with dense crowds of people, and outside the city, roads extended in all directions.

Even in the sky, people were flying back and forth, landing in the city.

Fang Yu's gaze looked into the distance, as if wanting to see the end of this city, but even though his spiritual sense could cover a radius of a hundred or even several hundred miles, he still did not see the end of this city.

This city of the Great Xuan Empire actually extended for thousands of miles! Everywhere there were tall houses, row upon row, wide streets, palaces one after another, and countless rivers flowing through the city, with blue waves rippling.

Seeing such a scene, although Fang Yu knew that the Great Xuan Empire was powerful, it was his first time seeing such a majestic city of the Great Xuan Empire.

A great city stretching for thousands of miles!

There was no need to compare it with Stone Village of the Perfect World; as for the Shrouding the Heavens world, perhaps only some God Cities or Holy Cities could compare, but this city was just an ordinary city under the Great Xuan Empire.

One could imagine the terror of the Great Xuan Empire.

By comparison, Dragon Abyss City was like a small, broken market in the countryside.

Originally, as the ancient capital of the previous dynasty, Dragon Abyss City was filled with singing and dancing, heavy traffic, shops, and businesses, with no one knowing how many ten-mile-long streets there were, prosperous like fire cooking oil, but now, compared to this city, it immediately became a broken market in the countryside, dirty and chaotic, backward to the extreme.

Even the number one family of Dragon Abyss, their Fang family's Viceroy Mansion, could not compare to a larger shop in this city. In terms of cleanliness and tidiness, it was even further behind.

Not to mention the huge palaces in the city.

"The Great Xuan Empire is indeed the number one empire. When other countries see such a city, they are everywhere; how would they dare to think of fighting the Great Xuan Empire? They would only submit."

Fang Yu sighed while revealing his form, though it was not his original appearance.

He landed directly on a very wide road in this great city. The pedestrians on the road saw Fang Yu fly down and immediately showed respect, feeling very envious.

"This is definitely an expert of the supernatural secret realm! That kind of momentum is definitely not something a cultivator of the physical secret realm can possess, unlike those who use magic treasures to fly. When will I be able to cultivate to this level?"

"It is too difficult for us to cultivate to the supernatural secret realm, unless we first cultivate to the tenth level of the physical realm and then sign up for a martial arts hall in the secular world of the Taiyi Sect. If we are lucky, we might be recruited as outer sect disciples, and then we will have pills distributed. But we have no pills, so it is impossible to cultivate to the tenth level of the physical realm."

"Let's think of a way to earn some Profound Yellow coins to buy pills."

"Be careful, the patrolling soldiers are coming; we had better not run into them."

Just as some ordinary people at the sixth or seventh level of the physical realm were talking, *ka ka ka*, a series of neat footsteps were transmitted from the other side of the street. This was a squad of a hundred soldiers, each wearing yellow armor, holding long spears, and possessing powerful strength; they were actually all at the seventh level of the physical realm, the Inner Strength realm.

These were patrolling soldiers.

Each one at the seventh level of the physical realm!

Such a realm, if placed in the Great Li Dynasty, could be called a martial arts grandmaster; they could take disciples in a martial arts hall and be worshipped by people in the secular world, but here, they could only be soldiers.

Ordinary little soldiers.

And the captain of the hundred-man squad had actually reached the ninth level of the physical realm, just one step away from the tenth level.

Fang Yu saw this situation and clicked his tongue in praise.

Walking on the streets of this Great Xuan Empire, he felt an atmosphere of a Celestial Empire; by comparison, the Great Li Dynasty was a bit petty.

The head of the Fang family had cultivated to the tenth level of the physical realm and held a high position in the entire Great Li Dynasty, highly valued by the Emperor, but if he arrived in this Great Xuan Empire, he would only be one realm higher than a patrolling squad captain.

The people of the Great Xuan Empire were all strong and powerful, particularly good at nourishing life. Most notably, there were no starving people or beggars in the cities of the entire Great Xuan Empire; it seemed that everyone had food to eat and clothes to wear.

Moreover, the residents here all knew some martial arts; even weak women were between the third and fourth levels of the physical realm, and those with slightly better family backgrounds were all experts at the fifth level of the physical realm, the Divine Strength realm.

In the Great Li Empire, the fifth level of the physical realm, the "Divine Strength" realm, was enough to be a great general, commanding thousands of troops, fighting on the battlefield, and making great contributions; one might even be granted a title, but here, it was just an ordinary resident.

Even the patrolling soldiers were experts at the seventh level of the physical realm, the "Divine Bravery" realm; there was no need to mention the quality of the citizens of this number one empire in the world.

Fang Yu knew from the various worlds that the rice grown by ordinary farmers in the Great Xuan Empire was a type of "White Sun Rice" seed that the Taiyi Sect had let the government distribute, with a yield of thirty to fifty thousand catties per mu. It was precisely because of the White Sun Rice that the Great Xuan Empire had a population of tens of billions, yet no one went hungry.

The imperial court of the Great Xuan Empire also hid dragons and crouched tigers.

Other supernatural secret realm experts, in some large empires, could even ignore the Emperor; for example, Fang Fang Fang Fang Fang Qingxue had achieved the supernatural secret realm, so she could let the imperial edict of the Great Li Dynasty wait, but in the Great Xuan Empire, that was simply courting death. Some of the marquises, princes, and imperial princes of the Great Xuan Empire were almost all experts of the supernatural secret realm.
