Chapter 555

"He can even use spatial cultivation technique?"

"Indeed, this is truly a spatial cultivation technique; it seems this Fang Yu might indeed inherit the Master's technique!"

Whether the yellow giant bear or the black old ox, both knew clearly that a cultivator acquiring a spatial technique was terrifying beyond measure—the power of spatial cutting held near-invincible force!

"The Master's legacy may truly have a successor!"

The yellow giant bear's gaze softened.

In the Technique Hall, more warriors coalesced in the distance; each warrior grew stronger, faster, and more agile.

But Fang Yu still used the Great Cutting Technique.

This was not a technique of Qi Refining.

After all, Fang Yu's Great Cutting Technique absorbed spatial power to perfection—was spatial power the Qi of Qi Refining?

Naturally, in this world, it was not.

The Three Thousand Great Dao, the Great Cutting Technique, manifested immense power in the Manghuang Ji Realm.

Thousands of warriors instantly appeared, only to be instantly cut down by Fang Yu.

Tens of thousands more warriors appeared at once, still cut down outright by Fang Yu.

Fang Yu dealt with these warriors as easily as turning over his palm.

But if anyone else had faced them, it would have been extremely difficult—thousands, tens of thousands of warriors, their strength undeniable; even if the front ones could be slain, the later ones grew harder to defeat, for a person inevitably tires, while the warriors multiplied and grew stronger.

Unfortunately, he met Fang Yu—his Great Cutting Technique of the Three Thousand Great Dao came from the Yongshengzhi Sect's Dao, and cutting these warriors was absurdly simple, even effortless.

"This Fang Yu is exactly as I predicted—he is the strongest I've ever seen in my endless eons, his comprehension of Dao far surpasses them all; he truly might inherit the Master's technique. That cutting power exerts a devastating suppression over the warriors."

Higher in the void, the yellow giant bear marveled repeatedly.

"Yes, he may very well obtain the Master's first technique from this Technique Hall."

The black old ox also chimed in praise. "As for that little kid Ji Ning, his comprehension is also extremely high—he grasps Dao rapidly. Look, he gained considerable benefits in the Star Hall, yet he still falls far short of Fang Yu."

The black old ox's gaze turned to another hall—this one called the Star Hall—where Ji Ning was now cultivating, seemingly uncovering something new.

"After so many years, our luck has finally improved—we've gotten two such individuals at once! How wonderful!"

The yellow giant bear nodded, then suddenly changed expression. "Fang Yu is about to clear the trial."

As gray misty void continuously coalesced warriors, their mouths uttering ancient divine-demon characters "Kill!", Fang Yu suddenly ceased using the Great Cutting Technique and instead unleashed the Great Killing Technique among the Three Thousand Great Dao—the Instant Death Killing Sword instantly swept through the void, absorbing every "Kill" character, releasing boundless devouring and destructive energy from this single sword strike.

This sword strike contained not only the ultimate of killing, but also a great devouring.

Where the Killing Sword reached, all Xu Yuan Qi composing the warriors was devoured.

Thus, no more warriors appeared.

Whoosh.

As Fang Yu instantly obliterated all the warriors, a figure appeared beside him—it was the yellow-furred giant bear, who gazed at Fang Yu with deep emotion.

"Are you a celestial reincarnated, or an ancient divine-demon reincarnated? This killing, this devouring, this cutting—none of this should be comprehensible at your age. I cannot fathom how one person could master so many Dao in a lifetime. These things are too difficult to comprehend."

The yellow-furred giant bear muttered.

Leaving aside cutting and devouring—how could one possibly comprehend such a terrifying technique as killing now? Only by slaughtering countless beings could one grasp even a fraction of it—but he could see that this Fang Yu had not slaughtered much.

No trace of killing's grievous qi, yet he had perfected killing—the yellow giant bear found this utterly unbelievable.

"What technique can I cultivate?"

Fang Yu did not respond—he would never tell the yellow-furred giant bear that his Great Killing Technique was spat out by the Yongshengzhi Sect of the Eternal Life Realm, nor that he had perfected it because his senior sister Fang Qingxue had used the Minor Destiny Art to sacrifice fate and obtain sufficient killing power.

That was why he had reached perfection.

Otherwise, merely gathering killing qi through slaughter alone would require killing billions of beings—and still fall short.

"Since you've slain all the warriors, you've earned the first technique. Come with me."

The yellow-furred giant bear blinked, still finding it unbelievable.

Yet as soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding gray void trembled, even twisted—Fang Yu felt time and space shifting here.

"Do not worry about the duration of the inheritance. Once the Master's legacy manifests, the surrounding time-space is sealed; once fully sealed, time here becomes virtually still—centuries pass within, while only a moment elapses outside."

The yellow giant bear spoke, his words brimming with reverence for his first Master.

To casually alter the flow of time!

The first Master was this powerful.

As time's flow changed and ultimately diverged entirely from the outside world, Fang Yu saw ahead a majestic structure radiating brilliant golden light—like an altar, its tier upon tier of steps leading directly to its summit.

"That is where the Master's legacy lies. Go."

The yellow-furred giant bear said.

"Alright."

Fang Yu stepped forward, ascending the stairs.

Instantly, an ancient, primordial aura descended from the altar.

The moment he stepped onto the first stair, the inheritance began.

Vast, profound knowledge continuously flowed down—unremarkable to Fang Yu, yet overwhelming for any other.

Without these stairs, the technique would have directly flooded the inheritor, turning them into Bai Chi.

Fang Yu's mind was sufficient, so he quickly ascended.

"The inheritance has begun."

Beneath the altar, the yellow giant bear looked up, his gaze at Fang Yu filled with complex emotion—excitement, anticipation, sighs, and finally, shock.

For he realized Fang Yu was absorbing the inheritance far too quickly.

Normally, if someone passed the trial and received inheritance, their progress up the stairs would be painfully slow—stronger techniques contained more knowledge, far exceeding thousands of books; the inheritor must advance step by step.

But now, Fang Yu simply strode upward, as if instantly comprehending the inheritance on every single step.

This was too terrifying.

"How powerful must his divine soul be, to be able to accept the master's inheritance so quickly?"

While the great yellow bear was reeling in shock and emotion, Fang Yu had already stepped upward, one pace at a time, until he stood at the very peak of the altar.

The information of that ancient Shentongfa Sect had already been committed to memory through special means.

The divine ability: Star-Plucking Hand.

This was the divine ability Fang Yu had obtained.

Before his eyes, a scene appeared.

In the boundless, vast void, a giant hand — as if it spanned an entire star field — pierced through the void and directly seized a star, crushing it to dust with effortless ease.

That hand, comparable in size to a star field, came slamming down, and within the vast cosmic starry sky, one towering divine-demon figure after another, who had been howling in defiance, was reduced to ash on the spot.

That same hand then gripped a whole world — within that world was trapped an ugly, flame-wreathed divine demon — and with a gentle squeeze, the world shattered and the divine demon perished.

The memories flowing through Fang Yu's mind revealed the master of this giant hand: a powerful divine demon with bronze-colored skin, a bare head, clad only in crude beast-hide, his form nearly identical to a human's — the most distinctive feature being that he had only one arm.

The moment Fang Yu saw the towering one-armed figure, that figure also gazed down at Fang Yu, a trace of delight on his face.

"The divine ability has been bestowed. When you survive the heavenly tribulation and attain the Heavenly God realm, you may become a disciple of I, Sanshou Daoren."

The one-armed divine demon raised his giant hand and pointed — five beams of incomparably dense radiance flew straight toward Fang Yu — and then the towering one-armed figure simply dissipated.

On Fang Yu's hands, waves of fluctuation arose; five-colored radiance flowed, then transformed into a hue of primordial chaos.

However, this chaotic hue did not immediately merge into Fang Yu's right hand, because his right hand had been refined by the Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi Root, becoming the Mysterious Yellow Heaven-Shrouding Hand.

Thus, all of the chaotic hue entered Fang Yu's left hand, transforming into rings upon rings of divine patterns.

These divine patterns contained terrifying power — not merely the transmission of the divine ability, but also a portion of Sanshou Daoren's own strength.

Fang Yu could feel that the power of his left hand had suddenly surged by leaps and bounds, reaching an unimaginable level.

His left hand was now not merely a hand, but a magic treasure — a treasure similar to the Mysterious Yellow Heaven-Shrouding Hand, yet possessing power far greater than it.

Once the partial power inheritance from the divine demon Sanshou Daoren was unleashed…

"I feel like I can now fight across levels against the Longevity Secret Realm!"
