Chapter 219: Can Ancestral Artifacts Be Divine Abilities?

Fang Yu is now a master of the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities in the Heavenly Man Realm, possessing immense divine abilities and boundless magic power; wherever he walks in the Dao Cultivation World of the Yellow Great World, people respectfully address him as "True Person."

Establishing a new branch of the Yuhua Sect in the perfect world's Stone Village was something he did as effortlessly as plucking a flower.

In fact, one who enters the Divine Ability Secret Realm can already establish a Sanxiumen Sect overseas, and upon reaching the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities in the Heavenly Man Realm—with eight hundred years of lifespan—one has more than enough time to found a moderately sized sect.

Of course, someone like Fang Yu, who has cultivated to the Heavenly Man Realm, swallowed the Yin-Yang Wan Shou Pill, and also consumed a divine herb from the Shrouding Heaven Realm, doesn't even know his exact lifespan—but it's certainly at least fourteen hundred years.

Six hundred years from the Yin-Yang Wan Shou Pill, plus eight hundred years from the Heavenly Man Realm, already gives him a lifespan of fourteen hundred years.

A complete divine herb can allow an Emperor to live another lifetime, gaining ten thousand years of lifespan; he swallowed only a fragment of the Nine Marvelous Immortal Herb, so how much it added remains uncertain for now.

When Fang Yu agreed to guide the children of Stone Village, everyone in the village erupted into cheers.

Whether elderly, young adults, or women, all were overjoyed.

"I am a cultivator of the Yuhuaxian Sect; if you join me, you join the Yuhua Sect. I will teach you the Liantifa Sect of Yuhua."

Fang Yu spoke, and his Daoist Gang Qi flowed out, forming three Daoists, each vivid and alive, brimming with spirit.

Upon entering the Yin-Yang Realm, every strand of Daoist Gang Qi gains spirit; how much more so when one reaches the Heavenly Man Realm, where each strand can effortlessly take the form of countless Daoists?

These three Daoists, in the empty space above Stone Village, each demonstrated the Yuhua Sect's Songhe Wan Shou Quan, Long Xing Hu Yue Bu, and Fei Ling Rou Gu Shen.

These are the Liantifa Sect techniques of Yuhua's outer disciples—excellent introductory body-tempering methods in any world.

Of course, compared to the Divine Elephant Subduing Hell Force in the Saint-King Realm, they are nothing.

"Wow, this is the Wu Gong our Master taught us—Songhe Wan Shou Quan? It looks just like a celestial crane, so powerful!"

"It looks incredibly powerful—far superior to what our clan chief taught us."

"So miraculous—how did three more people appear in the air? How is this possible?"

"I want to learn! I want to learn!"

The children of Stone Village, watching the Daoists formed from Daoist Gang Qi perform these Wu Gong, all showed keen interest, filled with excitement, and immediately began practicing.

Old Clan Chief Shi Yunfeng and other elder clan members, witnessing this scene, also wore expressions of excitement.

Though they possessed some ancient lineages and a few ancient herbal formulas, they had never systematically taught cultivation or body refinement.

The primary body refinement method in Stone Village was lifting stone mills and stone rollers—how could they have ever seen such a complete cultivation technique?

The elders exchanged glances, each seeing the joy in the others' eyes.

"Young Master Fang, we have our own offering for the apprenticeship ceremony—these two ancestral artifacts are our inherited legacy; if they can assist you in gaining insight, it would be best of all."

Seeing the children in the village earnestly cultivating, and even the young adults meticulously practicing the forms to strengthen their power, the elders were overjoyed; after discussing it, Shi Yunfeng and the elders brought forth Stone Village's most precious treasures.

One was the arm bone of a ferocious beast; the other, an ancient, bloodstained beast hide.

These two items are Stone Village's oldest and most powerful ancestral artifacts, imbued with unimaginable power.

Originally, the people of Stone Village would never show these ancestral artifacts to anyone, especially someone they had just met—but Old Clan Chief Shi Yunfeng made up his mind; he sensed a change.

If this Yuhuaxian Sect's Young Master Fang could teach more of Yuhua's Wu Gong, giving these two ancestral artifacts for him to contemplate would not be a bad thing.

"Oh? Your ancestral artifacts? I can take a look, and perhaps gain some insight."

Fang Yu, seeing the old clan chief offer his apprenticeship gift, nodded.

The old clan chief was quite astute—he knew to offer gifts when seeking a Master; this was good.

"Thinking of it, the Yuhua Sect isn't bad at all—they didn't even ask for our apprenticeship gift."

Fang Yu suddenly recalled the Yuhua Sect and thought it quite admirable: just becoming an outer disciple granted a full cultivation set—spiritual weapons, flying swords, various talismans and artifacts.

If one ascended to inner disciple status, even more gifts were given—talismans worth a fortune outside, yet they never asked for any apprenticeship gift.

"In that case, we won't disturb Young Master Fang anymore."

Seeing Fang Yu truly accept the ancestral artifacts, the old clan chief and the other elders withdrew; their eyes turned to the children nearby, punching and huffing with delight, their faces bright with joy.

Especially when they noticed little Shi Hao also among them, punching with proper form, their hearts swelled with happiness.

"We old ones may have some ancient lineages, but they only help them gain strength; in cultivation, technique matters just as much. We truly hope to see them improve greatly under Young Master Fang's guidance, and one day produce some formidable individuals."

"I'm sure they will. That Young Master Fang's power is terrifying—look, even his breath can take human form. Teaching our children such Divine Abilities—I can't even imagine it."

"I wonder how one could ever reach such a level. When I was young, I traveled eighty thousand li—I swear, not once in all that distance did I see anything like this. Young Master Fang's power must have surpassed the Cave Heaven Realm."

The old clan chief sighed.

He had traveled far and met many in his youth, but no one compared to this Young Master Fang.

"In any case, it's our fortune. He may not even value our ancestral artifacts—but if they can help him, that's fine."

"Yes, an apprenticeship gift is still necessary…"

"Ancestral artifacts. Bone script."

At this moment, Fang Yu's gaze turned to the ancestral artifacts before him: one was a precious relic bone, formed from the ancient, mighty beast's condensed runes, imbued with mysterious power.

When he reached out his hand and seized the beast's arm bone, it instantly glowed brilliantly, runes swirling, and an immense power surged forth from within.

Fang Yu's gaze then turned to the other ancient beast hide; as his magic power flowed into it, the hide began radiating potent vitality, forming a mysterious symbol.

Finally, a beast's head flickered into view, its vast body seeming ready to descend from empty space—a crushing pressure swept through the mountains and forests, shaking the soul.

This was Stone Village's other ancestral artifact, its origin lost to time, shed from an ancient ferocious beast and condensed into a rare, precious, powerful rune.

The rune flickered like flame; in the void, the beast's roar thundered, shaking Stone Village itself.

This was the most primal source of power, inherently holding terrifying energy; now awakened, it seemed as if an ancient colossal beast had descended into the mortal world.

"Two ancestral artifacts… could they also be considered two kinds of… Divine Abilities?"
