Chapter 759: The Man Upon Purple Lightning Peak!

The light of the Five Elements talisman shone forward, and upon Yuhua Sect's Yu Peak, a passage to the Five Elements Realm opened.

On one side of this passage lay Yuhua Sect; on the other, the Five Elements Realm.

"Is this the Five Elements Realm? I sense an overwhelming abundance of Five Elements qi, and countless demonic qi as well!"

"The Five Elements Realm—it truly is the Five Elements Realm! Has Fang Yu Xianzun actually opened a passage to the Five Elements Realm? Does this mean we can now enter and claim countless opportunities?"

"Legends say the Five Elements qi in this realm is so dense it can coalesce into sentience, transforming into legendary sacred beasts—could this be true?"

"Recently, Zhu Que and Xuan Wu were auctioned at Linglong Tower in the Great Xuan Empire—was this done under the Xianzun's orders? Each sacred beast sold for billions of White Yang Pills!"

On Yu Peak, everyone rejoiced.

Remembering the legends of the Five Elements Realm, all were elated.

Especially the senior Elders, who trembled as they felt the dense qi emanating from the other side of the passage.

"The Five Elements Realm is a treasure trove—filled with countless Five Elements demonic beasts; even killing a few could greatly boost one's cultivation base!"

"In past ages, Yuhua Sect opened the Demon War Zone to train outer sect disciples as a trial for promotion to the inner sect—but compared to the Five Elements Realm, the Demon War Zone is like heaven versus earth; even a single demonic beast here is worth far more than anything in the Demon War Zone!"

"If Yuhua Sect had the Five Elements Realm as a training ground, our true disciples' strength would skyrocket in no time—those in the Magical Power Realm could swiftly reach the True Qi Realm, those in the True Qi Realm could swiftly reach the Daoist Gang Qi Realm, and once they comprehended Yin-Yang and attained the Heavenly Man Realm, they could rapidly complete their Five Elements Divine Abilities here, saving at least a hundred years of arduous cultivation!"

Elder Chuan Gong was stunned and overjoyed, gazing at the Five Elements Realm across the passage, so moved he nearly roared aloud.

No one knew better than him the benefits of the Five Elements Realm—if Yuhua Sect gained it, they could rapidly cultivate and strengthen themselves, and even the Five Elements Divine Abilities could be mastered in a short time.

In the past, even when Yuhua Sect disciples reached the Heavenly Man Realm, mastering other Divine Abilities required years of searching for Five Elements rarities; it might take a hundred years just to complete one Five Elements ability.

"This is a blessing—a tremendous blessing! Xianzun, you've gained such a miraculous opportunity; Yuhua Sect is truly blessed to have you as our great fortune-bringer!"

Tiangong Elder was also stunned repeatedly.

When he was young, he had wished to enter the Five Elements Realm to find a Five Elements Spirit Root—but he never went, for he didn't know which temple in the Wilds Temple Complex housed it; lingering too long in such a place invited curses that led to utter, irreversible death.

Thus, Tiangong Elder had never entered the Five Elements Realm—but now, Fang Yu Xianzun had directly opened a passage to it. Had Fang Yu Xianzun cultivated to the legendary Longevity Third Stage, the Cave Heaven Realm? Or had he gained some extraordinary opportunity?

After pondering, Tiangong Elder believed it was the latter—the Longevity Third Stage, the Cave Heaven Realm, was not so easily attained; even with Fang Yu Xianzun's genius, reaching it would likely take a thousand years.

Not even the Longevity Second Stage, the Immortal Body Realm, was easy to break through. Yuhua Sect's three Fuzhang Sects had remained at Wan Shou Realm for over a thousand years since their promotion, still unable to reach Immortal Body.

The Longevity Secret Realm is said to have one stage per heavenly tier, each breakthrough extremely difficult.

"You disciples are Yuhua Sect's elite. This time, enter the Five Elements Realm and train well—slay Five Elements demonic beasts, gain many benefits. Of course, several Elders will accompany you to guard our disciples. The Five Elements Realm is no gentle place—full of peril. You must strive to slay the Five Elements demonic beasts and survive."

Fang Yu spoke to Yuhua Sect's true disciples and Elders.

All disciples exchanged glances and replied in unison: "We shall surely remember the Xianzun's teachings and never disappoint you!"

"Xianzun, rest assured—with us old ones here, the disciples won't suffer serious harm."

Elder Chuan Gong, Tiangong Elder, Tian Yao Elder, and other senior Elders also spoke up.

"Good. Then I shall send you to the Five Elements Realm."

Fang Yu nodded.

The Five Elements talisman glowed, sustaining the passage; Yuhua Sect's Elders and disciples passed through it into the Five Elements Realm, beginning their trial.

Finally, the passage Fang Yu had opened vanished.

Yet he could see it clearly.

Within the Five Elements Realm—any demonic beast, any demon—he could perceive at a glance through the Five Elements talisman.

At the location where Yuhua Sect's true disciples and Elders arrived, there were no Demon Kings—only a Bai Hu that had cultivated to the Golden Core Realm.

Such a Bai Hu, cultivated to the Golden Core Realm, was immensely powerful; none of the true disciples who had just arrived could match it.

Of course, the senior Elders could still slay it—their cultivation was at 10th Stage or 9th Stage of Divine Abilities; with a single coordinated strike, invoking the Instant Kill Art, slaying one Bai Hu posed no problem.

Otherwise, if only Yuhua Sect's true disciples had entered, the Bai Hu in the Five Elements Realm would thank Fang Yu for the feast.

Thank you, Fang Yu Xianzun, for delivering over a hundred delicious true disciples.

…

The Five Elements Realm.

After a dizzying whirl, Elder Chuan Gong, Tiangong Elder, Tian Yao Elder, and several other senior Elders led over a hundred Yuhua Sect true disciples to this place.

Instantly, all true disciples went on guard, for the moment they arrived, they sensed an overwhelming abundance of Geng Metal qi throughout the air—so dense that even disciples in the Physical Body Secret Realm could barely breathe.

"Disciples, be cautious—do not be careless! This place is extremely dangerous!"

As the senior Elders spoke, their magic power surged together, and each unveiled a supreme-grade magic treasure.

Simultaneously, Yuhua Sect's true disciples also activated their own magic treasures.

These true disciples were all those favored by Yu Peak, having received many gifts from Fang Yu Xianzun; now sensing danger, each activated their high-grade, mid-grade, or even supreme-grade magic treasures.

These were disciples from Fang's family on Yu Peak, and female disciples of the Jialan Society.

Several female disciples of the Jialan Society, having had first access, obtained some supreme-grade magic treasures; now activated, they immediately emitted dazzling treasure-light, drawing the attention of a sacred beast in the Five Elements Realm.

On a distant mountain, a streak of white-gold appeared—a Bai Hu, its entire body white-gold, its white-gold mane flowing in the wind.

The moment it appeared, many disciples felt their hearts tighten—this was the intense pressure a powerful sacred beast exerted over lower-level cultivators.

Some true disciples who had just reached the 1st Stage of Divine Abilities in the Magical Power Realm felt their spirits shaken, their cultivated abilities nearly tearing free from their bodies.

Bai Hu!

A Bai Hu had appeared!

"Heavens! A Bai Hu here? This is terrifying! Such a sacred beast is formed from countless Geng Metal qi—how much magic power do I have? I've barely arrived in the Five Elements Realm and already face this Bai Hu?"

A disciple who had reached the Magical Power Realm stared in shock—he had cultivated to the Divine Ability Secret Realm, Magical Power Realm, and now possessed three hundred Xuan Huang Warhorses' strength, decent for his realm—but now he sensed the Bai Hu's power, likely exceeding a million magic power.

With such a Bai Hu present, even a glance could kill him.

"Don't panic! Let us strike together and slay the Bai Hu!"

A female disciple of the Jialan Society, cultivated to the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities in the Heavy Heavenly Man Realm, shouted loudly, summoning a treasure cauldron—supreme-grade magic treasure. Her magic power flowed into it, and instantly, the cauldron teleported above the Bai Hu's body.

Countless lights blazed from the cauldron; massive arrays erupted with terrifying power—one array was the Devouring Array, seemingly ready to devour the Bai Hu's qi, while others poured forth terrifying Haozhen Heavenly Fire, capable of suppressing all Metal-type demonic beasts.

"Attack!"

Another Jurchen disciple instantly unleashed a vast array of banners, also Top-Grade magic treasures; these banners grew with the wind, transforming into grand formations, and as they stirred, countless wind blades and Nine-Stage Lei Guang flowed forth from within them.

A stone stele, also a Top-Grade magic treasure, was launched by a disciple of the Fang family; in an instant, it struck the Bai Hu, causing the beast to cry out in pain.

"Damn it! How can there be so many Top-Grade magic treasures? These tiny ants are truly worthy of death!"

After emerging, the Bai Hu saw one Top-Grade magic treasure after another descending upon him; each was of exceptionally high quality, and even with his immense magic power, he could not shatter them at once. He even saw a young male disciple—a mere 3rd Stage of Divine Abilities, Daoist Gang Qi Realm ant—launch a magic treasure resembling a basin, also a Top-Grade magic treasure. As it flew toward him, countless grains of dust poured out, forming a colossal formation that slowed his flight speed, preventing him from using his instant-kill technique.

The Bai Hu was utterly stunned, unable to believe that disciples from the outside could possess so many Top-Grade magic treasures. Which sect were these disciples from?

Has the age changed?

At that moment, several Elders of the Yuhua Sect also acted; these Elders, of 10th and 9th Stage of Divine Abilities, unleashed lethal techniques that instantly shattered the dazed Bai Hu into pieces, extinguishing all life.

"All disciples cultivating Metal Divine Abilities, hurry over and enhance your strength!"

The Elders claimed the bulk of the Geng Jin Qi; the remaining Geng Jin Qi was distributed, and immediately, the Yuhua Sect disciples who cultivated the Divine Ability of Great Freedom Mysterious Golden Sword Qi gained tremendous benefits. Even absorbing a small amount of Geng Jin Qi greatly increased their power—those at the Magical Power Realm surged into the True Qi Realm, and those at the True Qi Realm instantly broke through into the Daoist Gang Qi Realm.

The Great Freedom Mysterious Golden True Qi transformed into Great Freedom Mysterious Golden Sword Daoist Gang Qi; the quality of their magic power increased by more than tenfold.

Every disciple wore broad smiles; they had slain a Bai Hu upon their first appearance—what great gains lay ahead, as could be imagined.

"Not bad, all things considered."

On Yufeng, Fang Yu observed the Yuhua Sect disciples and Elders; their performance was merely acceptable. But had the Elders not intervened, these disciples could not have shouldered the burden—they would have been annihilated upon encountering the Bai Hu.

They still need more trials.

Ordinary great Divine Abilities are still too weak. Perhaps a portion of a Supreme Divine Ability from a Great Dao could be extracted and taught to them, greatly boosting their strength.

If disciples of the Guotaiyi Sect were here, each would naturally unleash a Supreme Divine Ability—Black Sun Wind Calamity, Great Sun Fire Calamity, Doomsday Catastrophe—when all disciples combined their power, they could obliterate the Bai Hu without any Elder needing to act.

Fang Yu's gaze turned beyond the disciples; they would soon encounter many more wonders. Ten thousand li beyond the slain Bai Hu lay an Xuan Wu; another ten thousand li away, a Zhu Que; and yet another ten thousand li away, a Teng She.

Of course, the Wood Sacred Beast Qing Long was also present.

These Sacred Beasts were scattered across different regions, each guarding its own territory; between their territories lay lesser monsters.

But for Yuhua Sect's True Disciples, even these lesser monsters were great monsters.

For instance, a Yuhua Sect disciple at the 2nd Stage of Divine Abilities encountering one hundred thousand fire crows—creatures Fang Yu deemed minor—would hardly call them minor.

When one hundred thousand fire crows unleashed their Fire Divine Abilities together, their power surpassed that of a typical Jin Dan cultivator's Fire Divine Ability, and could instantly annihilate most Yuhua Sect disciples in the Divine Ability Secret Realm.

The Five Elements Realm—dangerous, dangerous, dangerous, dangerous, dangerous, dangerous, dangerous.

There is good reason for this.

At his current realm, Fang Yu paid it little mind; suddenly, he reached out and seized the air above a certain spot in the Five Elements Realm—a giant hand appeared, snatching up a Zhu Que comparable to a Longsheng 1st Stage Wan Shou Realm, and sealing it instantly.

With the right materials, Fang Yu could now forge this Zhu Que into a Lower-Grade Dao Artifact.

The Chedi Divine Needle forged by Hentian Shenhuang was made by a similar method.

"Now I, too, am a titan capable of forging Lower-Grade Dao Artifacts."
