Chapter 276

Fang Yu remained expressionless, reached out with a giant hand, and seized the lower-grade treasure weapon, Jin Wu Stick, along with the map of the Five Elements Land.

The True Person Xuantie clearly realized that no one else could match Fang Han's strength, and no one would remain in the arena; thus, Fang Yu would directly receive the reward.

The lower-grade treasure weapon, Jin Wu Stick, was forged from a geng metal material and might contribute to Fang Yu's Bai Di Jin Huang Zhan.

As for the map of the Five Elements Land, Fang Yu immediately examined it.

When the map was unfurled, it revealed numerous mountains, nations, and territories—such as the Da Li Dynasty, Da De Dynasty, and Da Xu Dynasty—but none of these were the location of the Five Elements Land.

On the map, an arrow pointed directly, guiding the viewer's gaze through one nation after another, finally ending at the far edge of the greatest empire, the Da Xuan Empire, where lay an endless, boundless wilderness jungle.

Deep within the wilderness jungle, ancient temples were marked one after another.

This was a supremely dangerous forbidden zone on the Yellow Great World: the Wild Temple.

The Wild Temple was a long-abandoned relic of an ancient civilization, located beyond the borders of the Da Xuan Empire, within the wilderness jungle where many abandoned temples lay; legends said they were built by a vast empire long ago, even larger than the current Da Xuan Empire, but overnight, this great empire suffered a catastrophic disaster, and all its hundred billion inhabitants perished.

Many years later, those cities and temples were buried beneath the sands of history.

Many immortal sect disciples had ventured into the temples within the wilderness jungle, seeking opportunities, but whether they were cultivators of the Divine Ability Secret Realm or the Longevity Secret Realm, all who entered met an unnatural death.

Thus, most sects regarded the Wild Temple as a forbidden zone.

Now, the Five Elements Land was actually located within one of these Wild Temples.

To truly enter and claim its treasures would be an extremely difficult task.

As Fang Yu pondered, the Shanhe Ranking Tournament proceeded through several more rounds; without any surprise, Fang Han took first place.

Virtually every disciple who faced Fang Han chose to forfeit.

"Fang Han, come down to the Shanhe Ranking."

After the final match concluded, several Elders on the viewing platforms summoned simultaneously, and Fang Han descended onto the Shanhe Ranking, while the top ten disciples on the ranking also leapt up.

Fang Han ranked first; Ye Yun, who had previously held second place, remained second; and Hong Yi, the Princess whom Fang Yu had encountered several times on missions with Fang Han, ranked fifth.

Ye Nantian, who had ranked third last time, had fallen off the Shanhe Ranking.

"Here is a Yin-Yang Wan Shou Elixir, and a pure yang treasure weapon, Jin Guang Liehuo Mirror. Everyone knows the Yin-Yang Wan Shou Elixir—it is the supreme medicine of our Yuhua Sect, nurtured for several jiazi cycles in the cauldron by the Zhang Sect and the Supreme Elders, yielding only a few pills. Though you have reached the Divine Ability Secret Realm and do not need it, consuming it will greatly enhance your magic power and grant you six hundred years of additional lifespan."

As he spoke, an Elder waved his hand toward the Shanhe Ranking, and immediately a beam of light shot forth, carrying an elixir and a mirror flying over.

The elixir was precisely the Yin-Yang Longevity Elixir that Fang Yu had once devoured, wrapped in five-colored clouds and rosy mist, its surface split evenly into black and white, radiating powerful waves of magic power.

Whoever consumed this elixir would instantly gain six hundred years of lifespan.

To everyone, this was an unimaginable treasure.

No one would ever complain of having too much lifespan; six hundred extra years could accomplish much.

The other object, a six-pointed mirror, was crimson in color, adorned with flame-like stripes resembling lotus petals, clean and sharp, radiating an aura of vigorous yang energy and vibrant vitality.

Clearly, this treasure weapon was a pure yang artifact, immensely powerful.

"This Jin Guang Liehuo Mirror can emit golden light and blazing fire to purify demons and monsters, and it is infused with pure yang energy, having been enlightened by an Elder of our Yuhua Sect."

The Elder explained. "After you take possession of it, proceed to the Yuhua Tiangong—the Elders will verify your origins, confirm your promotion to True Disciple, grant you a Shanfeng, and impart Divine Abilities!"

"Understood."

Fang Han seized the elixir and mirror, and though he inwardly dismissed the prospect of learning new Divine Abilities—he already knew the Five Emperor Demon Divine Art from Yan—he outwardly showed a hint of delight.

He had already received Yan's teachings and learned the Xiulianfa Sect of the Five Emperor Demon Divine Art; naturally, he held little regard for the Eight Great Divine Arts of Yuhua Sect.

But the formalities still had to be observed, to make it legitimate.

"Fang Han, excellent, excellent—you've done well, helping me win a lower-grade treasure weapon and a map."

Fang Yu walked over and smiled at Fang Han.

"I will never forget your great kindness, Brother Yu."

Seeing Fang Yu approach, Fang Han paused, then suddenly pulled out the Yin-Yang Wan Shou Elixir. "I give this Yin-Yang Wan Shou Elixir to Brother Yu—perhaps one of our Fang family disciples may take it, and another Divine Ability Secret Realm expert may arise."

"What?"

At Fang Han's action, Fang Yu's expression shifted, and several Elders, even Jialan who was about to leave, stiffened, staring at Fang Han with astonishment.

A single Yin-Yang Wan Shou Elixir, granting six hundred years of lifespan and greatly increasing magic power, was simply given away—something they themselves could never do.

"Good. Fang Han, I accept your heartfelt gesture. Our Fang family does indeed have several disciples worth cultivating."

Fang Yu nodded at the sight, accepted the elixir without refusal, and took it.

A single Yin-Yang Wan Shou Elixir could indeed forge a Divine Ability Secret Realm cultivator—like Fang Cheng of the Fang family, who, with proper cultivation, might even break through to the Divine Ability Secret Realm after consuming it.

"Fang Yu, this Fang Han is truly a man of deep feeling."

Jialan watched the scene and spoke, a smile appearing on her face, as if she had now memorized Fang Han.

This Fang Han was clearly someone capable of great deeds; Jialan mused that even she might not surrender such a supreme treasure to another.

"Fang Han is indeed a man of deep feeling. Since this is so, I must reward him."

Fang Yu smiled, waved his hand casually, and three hundred Yuan Ying Dan fell before Fang Han. "After reaching the Divine Ability Secret Realm, ordinary elixirs have little effect on enhancing your strength—but Yuan Ying Dan greatly benefits the body. Take these three hundred Yuan Ying Dan."

"Thank you, Brother Yu."

Fang Han did not refuse and accepted the three hundred Yuan Ying Dan.

Others watched in murmured admiration; Ling Xiao, nearby, turned pale—Fang family seemed truly rising; they must be suppressed.

"Fang Han, come with us."

The Elders, watching this scene, felt deep envy—Yuan Ying Dan and Yin-Yang Wan Shou Elixir were precious, but none belonged to them.

The Elders took flight; Fang Han prepared to follow them toward the Yuhua Tiangong.

"I have some business to attend to at the Yuhua Tiangong as well—let's go together."

Fang Yu stepped forward and said.

"Very well, Brother Yu, after you."

The Elders led the way, while Fang Yu and Fang Han flew toward the Yuhua Tiangong.

Fang Yu indeed had some business to attend to at the Yuhua Tiangong.

This time in the Perfect World he obtained many cultivation techniques. The Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Art, Willow God Treasure Art, and Grass Character Sword Art were all at least at the level of Supreme Divine Abilities, and might even be able to match the weaker Three Thousand Great Daos. As for those treasure arts, such as the Qiongqi Treasure Art, the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow Treasure Art, the Luan Bird Clan Treasure Art, and the Hou Clan Treasure Art, they could also match Great Divine Abilities.

The Yuhua Sect had always had a rule: any disciple who returned from traveling outside and brought back a cultivation technique of a Great Divine Ability would receive a treasure as a reward. As for bringing back a Supreme Divine Ability, the reward would be even richer.

Fang Yu simply contributed some of the Great Divine Abilities he had obtained from the Perfect World, in exchange for some good things he needed.

Something like a Great Divine Ability, once shared, would not lose anything, but would instead bring many benefits. Fang Yu would not hide or keep secret the Great Divine Abilities from the Perfect World.

Of course, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Palace, Willow God Treasure Art, and Grass Character Sword Art could not be contributed for the time being. They had to wait until he had taken control of the overall situation of the Yuhua Sect before being passed on; otherwise, his trump card divine abilities might become something other true disciples used against him.

"Fang Yu, we meet again. Your Fang clan truly produces one talent after another. First there was a Fang Qingxue, then you, Fang Yu, and now another Fang Han."

Before he had even entered the palace, a voice came from afar.

It was the voice of Elder Chuan Gong.

"I have also heard about Fang Han's matter. Since he is a member of your Fang clan, there is no need to check anything; just directly pass on the divine ability. Hmm? Your cultivation base?"

When Elder Chuan Gong's gaze truly noticed Fang Yu, he immediately sensed something different. A look of shock appeared on his face, as if he were looking at an absolute genius.

"You've actually already cultivated to the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities, Heavenly Man Realm? How did you do this? Your cultivation speed is too fast. Even back in my day, I wasn't as fast as you."

"The 5th Stage of Divine Abilities, Heavenly Man Realm — and it hasn't even been a month, and you've already broken through, Fang Yu?"

Another voice appeared in the scene. Elder Tian Xing had arrived.
