Chapter 752: Scheme Against Hentian Shenhuang?

On the entire Yufeng Peak, everyone was now in a state of extreme joy.

Because Fang Yu Xianzun's celebration ceremony went smoothly, Fang Yu Xianzun generously rewarded all those who contributed.

Every disciple received a very generous reward: disciples in the Divine Ability Secret Realm were granted the precious Pure Yang Elixir, while those in the Physical Body Secret Realm received the fine Human Grade Top-Tier Nascent Soul Elixir.

One could say that Yufeng Peak was now filled with joy, and everyone worshipped Fang Yu Xianzun to the utmost.

"Only our Xianzun Fang Yu is the true prodigy, truly considering the interests of our Yuhua Sect; that Hua Tiandu is definitely a traitor who deserves everyone's contempt."

"Xianzun is invincible—unrivaled even within the Longevity Secret Realm! Four ancient titans could not resist him in the slightest!"

"Not just those four ancient titans—even the titan of Taiyi Sect who reached the Immortal Body realm, Chi Chi Rongtian, the reincarnation of the Fire God, could only slink away in shame before Xianzun, daring not utter a single threat."

"With Fang Yu Xianzun in our Yuhua Sect, it is truly a great blessing from heaven. Xianzun cares for us low-level disciples, allowing our cultivation base to surge forward—I advanced rapidly from the 3rd Stage of Divine Abilities in Gang Qi Realm to the Heavenly Man Realm of the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities, gaining eight hundred years of life. My very life belongs to Fang Yu Xianzun!"

"Indeed, which disciple has not received Xianzun's rewards and grace? I heard Sister Jialan will soon undergo the Wind-Fire Tribulation; this veteran Jin Dan expert is finally ready to take this crucial step."

"The 8th Stage of Divine Abilities, the Wind-Fire Tribulation—it is said to be extremely difficult. Sister Jialan has been stuck at this realm for many years, never daring to cross it. Now, she has finally gathered enough strength; let us watch and wait."

After the grand banquet ended, everyone on Yufeng Peak began to cultivate, their strength surging forward; and indeed, Xi Jialan, once one of the Five True Disciples, was about to undergo the Wind-Fire Tribulation on Yufeng Peak.

Fang Yu and Fang Qingxue sat nearby, their spiritual senses observing Jialan outside.

A Jin Dan slowly floated out from the top of Jialan's head; this Jin Dan now bore thirty-six Divine Abilities, over ten of which she had cultivated after attaining the Jin Dan state—hard-won abilities forged through years of diligent practice.

Most of these abilities were Five Elements and Starry Divine Abilities, cultivated with the abundant Five Elements essence and Starry Xu Yuan Qi provided by Fang Yu's aid.

That she had cultivated over a dozen new Divine Abilities in such a short time was already a miracle; most of these abilities were Supreme Divine Abilities.

If Jialan were to cultivate a Great Dao like Great Chaos Art, she would likely never succeed even after a thousand years.

Even so, a Jin Dan with thirty-six Divine Abilities was already extremely formidable.

Boom—

When Jialan released her Jin Dan, a sound emanated from within it, and immediately her Wind-Fire Tribulation erupted fully.

Wuuuuu, wuuuuu.

At that moment, Fang Yu saw countless strange winds erupt from deep within Jialan's Jin Dan core, howling as they wrapped around her physical body.

The Wind-Fire Tribulation—the tribulation triggered by one's own inner demons and Xu Yuan Qi—exploded completely!

Intense flames burst forth from within Jialan's Jin Dan core; each flame glowed a pure red, coalescing into phantom red lotuses, their brilliant radiance turning the void above Yufeng Peak a deep crimson.

This was the Red Lotus Tribulation Flame, an extremely terrifying fire whose power far surpassed that of Haozhen True Fire and Chi Di Fire Emperor Qi.

Among the Three Thousand Great Daos, Chi Di Fire Emperor Qi, a branch of Great Five Elements Art, was said to be the strongest fire among the Five Elements—but the Red Lotus Tribulation Flame transcended the Five Elements entirely, existing beyond them.

Dozens of Red Lotus Tribulation Flames burst forth from Jialan's body; each flaming phantom was the size of a fist, and as they flowed, they madly burned her physical body and magic power.

As soon as this flame appeared, Jialan's physical body withered visibly; she had once been a breathtakingly beautiful woman, a celestial immortal of the Cultivation World, revered wherever she went—but now her flesh was being scorched away, as if she would vanish into ash at any moment.

Simultaneously, a Black Nightmare Dragon Wind erupted from Jialan's body, wailing like ghosts and demons, its pitch-black hue seeming to blind the cultivator's entire spirit, plunging the cultivator into dazed confusion until the Red Lotus Tribulation Flame consumed them.

This was a great terror.

Red Lotus Tribulation Flame.

Black Nightmare Dragon Wind.

These were the cultivator's nightmares.

"Jialan has been accumulating for so long these past days—I believe she will pass this Wind-Fire Tribulation without issue."

Fang Yu watched Jialan as she underwent the tribulation; he had to admit, Jialan's Wind-Fire Tribulation looked fierce, but it was nothing compared to the one he himself had faced. His own tribulation had seen Red Lotus Tribulation Flames the size of water barrels, hundreds upon hundreds arriving together; as for the tribulation winds, there was no need to mention them.

Now, Jialan's Red Lotus Tribulation Flames were only fist-sized, and only dozens in number—if Fang Yu had faced this tribulation, it would have been effortless; for Jialan, who had accumulated so long, it should not be a problem either.

Indeed, just as the Red Lotus Tribulation Flames and Black Nightmare Dragon Wind were about to obscure Jialan's spiritual sense and completely burn her body and magic power, a point of bright light appeared in her mind—a piercing, razor-sharp cutting force, coalescing into a radiant sphere that illuminated her consciousness.

Vast amounts of Pure Yang energy burned within her body, transforming into abundant magic power that continuously flowed into Jialan's physical form, repairing her shattered body.

Fang Yu and Fang Qingxue exchanged glances—Jialan's passage through the Wind-Fire Tribulation was now essentially assured.

In these past days, Jialan had also cultivated a Great Dao: the Great Cutting Art of the Three Thousand Great Daos, which she had painstakingly refined to a certain level.

Just now, as the tribulation winds threatened to cloud her spirit, she channeled all her wisdom and deployed her Great Dao technique; the Great Cutting Art erupted in sharp, cutting light, severing every tribulation wind that sought to obscure her mind, buying herself precious life.

Now, everything was no longer an issue.

She only needed to continue channeling this Great Dao technique, continuously refining Pure Yang energy as replenishment, to remain at her peak state at all times and ultimately pass the Wind-Fire Tribulation.

The Great Cutting Art of the Three Thousand Great Daos, once successfully cultivated, greatly aids in passing the Wind-Fire Tribulation; of course, if one cultivated Great Chaos Art from the Three Thousand Great Daos, passing the Wind-Fire Tribulation would be even easier—how could a Chaos Jin Dan be broken by Wind-Fire Tribulation?

"Yu-di, I feel I am only one step away from the Longevity Secret Realm, yet to take that final step, I seem to be missing something."

Fang Qingxue withdrew her spiritual sense from Jialan and spoke to Fang Yu.

"Sister wants to break through to the Longevity Secret Realm? That realm requires an overwhelming spiritual will to sense the Xianjiezhi Sect, then shatter it. When I broke through to the Longevity Secret Realm, I was aided by the Qimingxuan Sect Elixir, which allowed me to smash the Xianjiezhi Sect and achieve Longevity. If you feel you're still missing something, I have an idea."

Fang Yu's gaze shifted to his sister.

"Oh? What idea do you have, Yu-di?"

Fang Qingxue was slightly curious.

"Hentian Shenhuang."

Fang Yu uttered a name.

"This divine emperor is the shadowy force behind the Forty Thieves. Last time, I captured Fan Fan Qingying, ruined his grand scheme, seized all the artifacts he had gathered—including the Taotie teeth and countless arrays—and even took possession of the mid-grade Dao Artifact, the Sun-Moon Essence Wheel. He must be desperately searching for who sabotaged him. Why not scheme against him once?"

Fang Yu smiled.

"Good! Let's do it!"
