Chapter 495

This stretch of void had appeared empty, but when Fang Yu descended upon it, figures emerged—six men clad in black, as if awaiting news.

The instant Fang Yu appeared, all six black-clad men displayed expressions of shock, as if unable to believe it.

"Fang Yu?"

"Break."

Fang Yu's will shifted, and countless cutting beams instantly sliced through the six black-clad men, rendering them unconscious and subduing them.

These six black-clad men possessed strength equivalent to Heavenly Man Realm cultivators among humans, yet each carried the power of over a hundred thousand Xuan Huang烈Horses—far surpassing ordinary Heavenly Man Realm experts.

The Six True Persons of Taiyi Sect each possessed merely two or three ten thousand Xuan Huang烈Horse powers.

These six black-clad men were clearly the Divine Race, known among them as Divine Lords.

Divine Race experts of the Heavenly Man Realm are called Divine Lords; those of the Golden Core Realm are called Divine Kings; those who surpass the Longevity Secret Realm are called Divine Emperors.

These six Heavenly Man Realm Divine Lords meant nothing before Fang Yu—they were crushed instantly.

Fang Yu took another step and arrived atop Yufeng.

He directly performed soul-searching on these six Divine Lords, his expression thoughtful.

"The Divine Race are truly everywhere now—impossible to guard against."

After reading the memories of these six Divine Lords, Fang Yu discovered that above them were Divine Kings—but those Divine Kings had not come to Yuhua Sect; instead, they had gone to the Daixuan Empire, posing as lone cultivators and pledging allegiance to an Imperial Prince.

"Divine Kings of the Divine Race are extremely valuable…"

Fang Yu's will shifted, and he crushed five of the Divine Lords to death, utterly eliminating them, then seized from their minds a cluster resembling a hundred-treasure pouch.

His spiritual sense swept inside, and Fang Yu saw numerous elixirs, flying swords, magic treasures, and materials within.

The flying swords ranged from Spirit-level to Treasure-level; among the five Divine Lords' treasure pouches, there were even Top-Grade Treasure-level flying swords—as if, to the Divine Race, Top-Grade Treasure-level items held no value.

Among these Divine Lords' treasures were also Tianji elixirs.

Yes, Tianji elixirs—the Seven-Return Fire God Elixir.

This Tianji elixir's effect was no less potent than the Yin-Yang Wan Shou Elixir, fully capable of aiding a Physical Body Secret Realm cultivator to reach the Divine Ability Secret Realm—and these five Divine Lords possessed three of them.

Recalling his family's three servants, Fang Yu deduced the reason for these three Tianji elixirs.

The Divine Race intended to cultivate Fang's three servants into the Divine Ability Secret Realm, making them true disciples of Yuhua Sect and pawns of the Divine Race.

"This time I've indeed earned merit—but the pawns caught are my own family's servants."

After pondering for a while, Fang Yu still decided to venture deep into Yuhua Tiangong to meet Elder Tian Xing.

Deep within Yuhua Tiangong, Fang Yu met Elder Tian Xing once more.

This hazy space was filled with abundant Xu Yuan Qi, wisps of white mist curling toward distant depths—Fang Yu was no longer surprised.

He knew that the entire Yuhua Tiangong was itself a Top-Grade Dao Artifact, equal in power to the Top-Grade Dao Artifact of Qunxing Sect's Great Meteor, its internal space vast enough to contain several nations of the mortal world.

Of course, Fang Yu had never had the chance to reach deeper into Yuhua Tiangong—that was where the Supreme Elders cultivated.

"What is it, Fang Yu? What brings you here? Just now, your lecture on Yufeng was quite the spectacle."

Elder Tian Xing smiled as he spoke upon seeing Fang Yu arrive.

He no longer displayed the solemn authority of a Longevity Secret Realm ancient titan before Fang Yu.

"Elder, I have urgent news: the Divine Race has planted pawns within Yuhua Sect. I acted decisively, slaying five Divine Lords outside and capturing one Divine Lord. I beg you to render judgment."

As Fang Yu spoke, he pulled forth Huan Li, the Divine Lord—bound tightly by Fang Yu's Five Emperors Great Seal and numerous other seals, utterly unable to access his own power.

"What? The Divine Race has reached into the heart of Yuhua Sect?"

Elder Tian Xing's face darkened solemnly as he saw "Huan Li," and with a single hand-grab, he seized the Divine Lord. "Speak! You're merely a lowly Divine Lord—you must know my name, Tian Xing. Reveal everything you know!"

"Cough, cough!"

Huan Li, clad in bony armor with horned protrusions, looked monstrous. After a violent cough, he sneered. "We of the Divine Race know your name, Tian Xing—but your arrogance won't last long. You strut before me now, but a single Divine Emperor from our race could crush you with a grip!"

"Oh? I look forward to your Divine Race's arrival—then there will be plenty of slaughter. Since you won't speak, I'll simply perform soul-searching. Though powerful, your Divine Race lacks the Heavenly Demon Body Dissolution Art."

Elder Tian Xing ceased questioning, clenched his hand—and boom—the Huan Li Divine Lord exploded into countless Xu Yuan Qi clusters, his thoughts scattering in all directions, all of which he seized in his grasp.

One white crystal was Huan Li's internal storage space—though it likely contained fine items like Top-Grade Treasure-level artifacts, Elder Tian Xing had no interest in it and tossed it directly to Fang Yu.

"Hmm? Are there still important pawns within Yuhua Sect?"

Elder Tian Xing continuously absorbed Huan Li's memories, suddenly startled—as if he had "seen" something. After a long while, he shattered the thought cluster. "Fang Yu, you've done excellently—you've spared Yuhua Sect from great disaster. I must report this to Zhang Sect. As for your family's servants, they are none of your concern. When this matter concludes, I'll see what reward you receive."

As Elder Tian Xing spoke, his figure grew hazy.

He had clearly gone to meet the Zhang Sect.
