Chapter 255

The third step, the fourth step, the fifth step.

Stepping upward, he arrived directly at the seventh step.

When he reached the seventh step, expressions of reverence appeared on the faces of Hua Hua Qingming and the other Zhuofeng disciples.

And when Fang Yu stepped casually onto the ninth step, celestial music suddenly resounded, five-colored light soared into the sky, and seven-colored divine radiance emerged.

Strange phenomena appeared in succession on Zhuofeng.

"The Senior Brother is mighty!"

On Zhuofeng, Fang Yu stepped onto the nine-layered heavenly stairs with ease, causing strange phenomena to appear in succession upon the peak.

What happened here attracted many people, and disciples from other main peaks flew over.

Amidst the flickering figures, others descended; their hair and beards were all white, and they also came from other main peaks.

These people were Elders.

Upon seeing that the person who had ascended the nine-layered heavenly stairs of Zhuofeng was the Holy Son of the Profound Heaven Sect and the Senior Brother of Zhuofeng, Fang Yu, both Elders and disciples alike wore expressions of astonishment, and naturally, some disappointment as well.

"So it is the Holy Son of our Profound Heaven Sect; I thought there was some other talent."

"In the past, whenever a disciple wanted to ascend the Zhuofeng heavenly stairs, it would attract many people. For an ordinary disciple, being able to step onto the third step was already the limit. Only a genius could step onto the fifth and enter Zhuofeng. Being able to step onto the seventh makes one a genius among geniuses, and if one can step onto the ninth, that is a peerless genius among geniuses, rarely seen in a hundred thousand years. How could the Holy Son of our Profound Heaven Sect actually step onto the ninth?"

"The Holy Son is indeed the Holy Son; stepping onto the ninth layer appears so relaxed and effortless. This is Heaven wishing for our Profound Heaven Sect to flourish. I just don't know what kind of constitution our Holy Son possesses."

Several old fellows looked at Fang Yu with burning gazes; they still could not poach him, but they were filled with curiosity about him.

What kind of constitution does this Holy Son of the Feathering Sect possess?

"Holy Son, may this old man ask a question: what exactly is your constitution?"

After the several old men watched for a moment, an old man with graying hair asked curiously.

"Reporting to the Elder, my constitution is the Thunder Spirit Sacred Body."

Hearing these Elders ask him, Fang Yu made up a name at random. With a rub of his large hands, dense thunder appeared in the void. The moment these divine thunders appeared, purple lightning also circled his body, making Fang Yu look like a god of thunder.

Fang Yu walked through the void, surrounded everywhere by terrifying thunder and purple lightning, as if he were about to bring down a heavenly tribulation upon all living beings.

"What?"

"I..."

"There is such a sacred body? Thunder Spirit Sacred Body? This old man has lived for so many years and has never seen such a sacred body. You must know that thunder is the most fierce and overbearing existence between Heaven and Earth. It is rumored that only a genius among geniuses can attract a thunder tribulation when passing through a major realm, but I have never heard of anyone between Heaven and Earth who can refine thunder at will and rub thunder with their hands."

An Elder was so shocked he did not know what to say.

"Great-uncle, the Senior Brother indeed has an affinity for thunder. His strength and profoundness are far beyond what we can reach."

Beside Fang Yu, Hua Hua Qingming wore a look of worship as he spoke to the old man.

The old man was indeed Hua Hua Qingming's great-uncle, clearly an Elder from Star Peak, holding a high position and possessing a profound cultivation base.

But now, even this old man was shocked by Fang Yu.

There was no other reason; thunder was simply too special.

This thunder is both the most rigid and yang object between Heaven and Earth, capable of destroying demons, and also a part of the heavenly tribulation. Whenever a peerless genius advances in realm, thunder descends, transforming into a thunder tribulation.

This thunder is a power that does not belong to cultivators, but now it is controlled by a cultivator.

"The younger generation is to be feared, the younger generation is to be feared indeed. Our Profound Heaven Sect having a Holy Son like you is truly a great joy. I have high hopes for you."

That old man, Hua Hua Qingming's great-uncle, wore an expression of admiration. He had originally wanted to see what kind of person Fang Yu, who could rival Hua Hua Hua Hua Hua Yunfei, was, and today he was very satisfied.

The Profound Heaven Sect indeed needs Fang Yu.

"To be able to master thunder, how exactly does Brother Fang cultivate?"

Pang Bo looked at Fang Yu, who was surrounded by thunder and purple lightning, in utter shock. Even from several yards away, he could feel those terrifying thunderbolts and purple lightning crackling through the void. One could imagine that if those thunders truly landed on a person, their body would almost immediately be smashed to pieces.

But Brother Fang is so mighty, rubbing divine thunder with his hands, as if the divine thunder were fake.

"Brother Fang has obtained many fortuitous encounters these days; he is indeed a mysterious person."

Ye Fan's heart also surged with shock. He is an Ancient Sacred Body, and his physical body is terrifyingly strong, but he also had a feeling that with his current physical body, he still could not withstand that terrifying thunder.

"Is this person still human? He is even more terrifying than my Brother Haoyue."

Ji Ziyue also widened her eyes, unable to believe it.

Even her Brother Haoyue, the Eastern Wasteland Divine Body, would not dare to manipulate thunder like this, let alone have the ability to summon it. Her brother has cultivated a strange phenomenon, 'The Moon Rises Over the Sea', but she felt that this 'Moon Rises Over the Sea' could not destroy the infinite thunder of this Holy Son, Fang Yu.

Many people in the field were stunned. Those disciples who wanted to join Zhuofeng were also shocked by this scene; they could not imagine that a cultivator could reach such a level.

If they could join Zhuofeng, wouldn't that be the blessing of their lifetime?

Immediately, others wanted to participate in the assessment of the nine-layered heavenly stairs.

The assessment continued.

This was not an easy thing.

Ascending the nine-layered stairs is an impossible task for 99. % of cultivators between Heaven and Earth. Many people came to Zhuofeng to participate in the assessment, but in the end, only five people barely stepped onto the fifth layer and passed the assessment.

That simple and honest youth named Zhang Erdan actually passed as well.

This was truly very strange.

"What a surprise, he was also able to pass the assessment."

An expression of surprise appeared on Hua Hua Qingming's face, but he remembered that the Master of Zhuofeng, Li Li Ruoyu, seemed somewhat similar before he obtained the inheritance of Zhuofeng, so he said no more.

Just like that, Zhuofeng welcomed new disciples.

These disciples would naturally be handled by other disciples; Fang Yu would not concern himself with such trivial matters.

He was now in his own palace, meeting with Ye Fan and Pang Bo.

"So many days have passed in a blink. It has been a while since we last met."

Fang Yu looked at Ye Fan and Pang Bo and spoke first.

He reached out, and some fruits and elixirs appeared before him. The fruits were rare and exotic, and the elixirs were Nascent Soul Pills.

Human-grade supreme elixirs.

"Indeed, Brother Fang, it has been a while. Seeing Brother Fang now, your cultivation base is becoming increasingly powerful, and you have even become the Holy Son of the Profound Heaven Sect."

Ye Fan sat in the field, looking at the Nascent Soul Pills in front of him, his heart even more shocked.

It has only been a few days, yet Brother Fang is becoming more and more affluent. The vitality of each elixir is so abundant that it has condensed into a human shape; it is truly inconceivable.

"How are little Little Little Little Tingting and Old Man Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang?"

Fang Yu suddenly thought of the two and spoke.

"Not long after Brother Fang left, people from the Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang family came looking for them. Only then did we know that little Little Little Little Tingting is from the Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang family and has a great background. After Old Man Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang and little Little Little Little Tingting went back, their lives should be quite good."

Pang Bo said, "However, that Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang Yichen from the Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang family does not look like a good person. He kept eyeing me and little Ye, his gaze very venomous. Fortunately, we put away our treasures, otherwise, I fear he would have killed us to seize them."

Speaking of Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang Ancient Ancient Ancient Ancient Jiang Yichen, Pang Bo was very unhappy.

"By the way, speaking of treasures, Brother Fang, we have indeed obtained some rare treasures of Heaven and Earth these days that will definitely make you like them. Today, we will gift some to you."

When Pang Bo spoke of the past, Ye Fan spoke up. The two exchanged a look, and Ye Fan began to use his methods, and thus, a little bit of Xuanhuang Qi appeared in the palace.

Then, this little bit of Xuanhuang Qi expanded and expanded, becoming a large amount of Xuanhuang Qi.

It was indeed Xuanhuang Qi.

The stars are in chaos, and yin and yang are misplaced. Xuan is the essence of Heaven, and Huang is the marrow of Earth; it is the essence of Heaven and Earth, hence Xuanhuang represents Heaven and Earth.

"Brother Fang, this is the Xuanhuang Mother Qi we obtained near a bronze palace. I heard people say that Xuanhuang Mother Qi is the rarest essence between Heaven and Earth and is a sacred object for refining weapons. We obtained some with great difficulty, fighting for our lives. We almost died at the time."

Ye Fan said, releasing the Xuanhuang Mother Qi.

Each wisp of Xuanhuang Mother Qi was as heavy as a mountain. After appearing in this palace, it actually caused the ground to collapse downward.

But Fang Yu only had to move his mind, and a Five Emperors Canopy appeared above his head. Five-colored divine light hung down from the canopy, stabilizing the five elements here.

In the blink of an eye, every inch of soil on the mountain peak became many times harder than the hardest diamond.

This is the terrifying aspect of the Great Five Elements Art's Yellow Emperor Earth Emperor Dao. With Fang Yu's current Yellow Emperor Earth Emperor Dao, a single wisp of divine light can make a mountain peak possess the effect of Nine Heavens Breathing Soil.

Therefore, no matter how much Xuanhuang Mother Qi is currently on Zhuofeng, the ground of Zhuofeng remains firm.

Seeing this scene, Ye Fan and Pang Bo were shocked once again. The two looked at each other, and Ye Fan took out an exceptionally gorgeous and heavy wisp of Xuanhuang Qi.

Although there was not much, this wisp of Xuanhuang Qi was completely different from the others; it was more brilliant and heavier, with each wisp as heavy as several mountains.

"Brother Fang, this is a heavy treasure we obtained, the root of Xuanhuang Mother Qi. It is said to be the essence of Xuanhuang, rarely seen in a thousand generations, and can be used to refine supreme weapons."

Ye Fan said, inviting Fang Yu to grasp some of the Xuanhuang Mother Qi roots. "I once said in the past that if I saw Brother Fang next time, I would definitely gift you some rare treasures of Heaven and Earth to help you in your cultivation. This time, I have not failed the mission and finally obtained some. I wonder if Brother Fang can look upon them favorably."

"Indeed, Brother Fang, I still remember our trip to the Yanxia Cave Heaven last time. You gave all the Source you obtained to us to help us cultivate. That was Source, a very precious thing! Now, this time we have finally obtained the Xuanhuang Mother Qi root, it should be able to help you, Brother Fang."

Pang Bo also spoke up.

He remembered the scene when they parted last time.

At that time, Brother Fang led them to Yanxia Cave Heaven to seek justice for little Little Little Little Tingting. Who knew that the Sect Master of Yanxia Cave Heaven was very enlightened and polite; after punishing the culprit, he even gave them a few pieces of Source.
