Chapter 216

The 5th Stage of Divine Abilities, the Heavenly Man Realm, is no trivial matter—it marks a qualitative leap within the Divine Ability Secret Realm.

Fang Yu sensed that after the Haozhen True Fire entered his body, if he wished, merely the beating of his heart could emit the same power as the Qing Emperor's heart—devoid of killing intent—each pulse sufficient to shatter all life within several li.

The force of his heart's beat was even more terrifying than having devoured many Golden Core pills.

Yet Fang Yu clearly felt the Five Elements within him had lost balance; fire dominated, while his liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were utterly empty.

Of the Five Elements, he now possessed only fire; the other four had lost equilibrium.

Fang Yu immediately sat cross-legged and continued to cultivate.

The Eight Divine Abilities of Yuhua Sect began to be cultivated by him.

The Great Heavenly Wood Method, one of Yuhua Sect's Eight Divine Abilities, is a Wood-element Divine Ability; though its combat power is greatly reduced, it remains highly useful for alchemy, awakening spirit herbs, and tending medicinal fields.

The Ten Thousand Waters Divine Technique, one of Yuhua Sect's Eight Divine Abilities, is a great Water-element Divine Ability; if cultivated to its extreme, it may not grant control over all waters of the world, but manipulating the essence of water and summoning roaring rivers is still well within reach.

Mountain and Peak Refining Body Gang Qi, one of Yuhua Sect's Eight Divine Abilities, is a great Earth-element Divine Ability; once perfected, it allows control over all earth, unmatched defense, and the ability to lift mountains with a gesture or carry entire forests effortlessly—immensely powerful.

The Great Freeing Mystical Golden Sword Qi, one of Yuhua Sect's Eight Divine Abilities, is the Golden-element Divine Ability Fang Yu most desired; Golden-element Divine Abilities are unmatched in destruction—sword strikes from a thousand li away can arrive with lethal grace; mastering this technique grants the elegance of a Sword Immortal.

The Great Heavenly Wood Method, Ten Thousand Waters Divine Technique, Mountain and Peak Refining Body Gang Qi, Great Freeing Mystical Golden Sword Qi, and Azure Flame Seven Cultivation Rays are the Five Elemental Divine Abilities of Yuhua Sect; of course, Fang Qingxue's Violet Lightning Yin Thunder Blade does not belong to the Five Elemental Divine Abilities, and the other two great techniques—Heavenly Cold Mystical Yin Force and Jiugong Divine Step—are respectively tied to freezing and space.

Especially the Heavenly Cold Mystical Yin Force, which Hua Tiandu cultivated to an extreme—any movement can scatter snow for eight thousand li and freeze ice three feet deep; if used by a Longevity Secret Realm being, it could freeze entire nations.

Now, Fang Yu first chose to cultivate the Five Elemental Divine Abilities among Yuhua Sect's Eight Divine Abilities.

The Great Freeing Mystical Golden Sword Qi.

In past years of training outside, whether in the Blood Mud Swamp or after slaying several Divine Clan members, Fang Yu had acquired many heavenly treasures; even in the Fire Domain of the Shrouding Heaven Realm, he obtained rare treasures—but at that time his cultivation base was not yet Heavenly Man Realm, so he could not utilize them; now he could finally absorb them.

Fang Yu refined some Geng Metal Qi, circulating it according to the Gang Qi flow of the Great Freeing Mystical Golden Sword Qi, and instantly a thread of Great Freeing Mystical Golden Sword Gang Qi appeared within him.

"Mystical Golden Sword Gang Qi, return to the Five Elements."

Fang Yu subtly moved, and the newly condensed Great Freeing Mystical Golden Sword Gang Qi sank into his lungs, instantly making his breath and voice sharp as a Sword Immortal's.

One can imagine that if Fang Yu truly perfected this great technique, every word he spoke would be as piercing as sword qi—he could spit out a cluster of sword rays with a single breath, invincible in all directions.

"What is that Young Master cultivating? Why such a tremendous commotion?"

"Too terrifying—how can his flesh be so strong? I thought our child lifting six hundred jin was impressive, but the air expelled by that Young Master's body exceeds a thousand jin in force!"

"Unimaginable, unimaginable—how did he refine his flesh? It's utterly incomprehensible."

At this moment, in Shi Village, the elder village chief Shi Yunfeng and several old villagers stared in utter shock at the scene nearby—they saw Young Master Fang Yu, while cultivating, expelling air from his pores that swept up thousand-jin stones and hurled them into the sky.

With a mere movement, the air expelled from his pores became a hurricane; the power of his flesh was not merely thousands of jin—it likely reached tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, even millions or tens of millions of jin.

"That young man is truly incredible—no wonder he can hunt so many beasts."

In Shi Village, the women of each household were not astonished—they had received countless demonic beast meats and were delighted, looking upon Fang Yu with deep respect.

Each household had received ample meat this time, and naturally, they wished to thank Young Master Fang Yu.

Smoke curled from every hearth; half an hour later, the scent of roasting meat spread, and the meat chunks stewing in every iron pot were nearly tender—the children could hardly wait.

Yet the adults of each household restrained their children, forbidding them from eating first.

Chief Shi Yunfeng, accompanied by several elders, personally brought some delicacies to Fang Yu.
