Chapter 772: Bābù Fútú, Small Dragon Realm, Truly Amazing!
The Bābù Fútú, forged jointly by the Three Sacred Ones of Yuhua and the Sect Master Feng Baiyu, finally ascended to the rank of Lower Grade Dao Artifact.
At this moment, this legendary treasure of the dragon race suddenly opened a passage to the Dragon Realm, as countless Bābù True Dragon Qi surged wildly from the very center of the Bābù Fútú.
This sight left the Three Sacred Ones of Yuhua and Feng Baiyu utterly astonished and shocked.
"The legends are true—so it is said that if the Bābù Fútú is fully refined to the Lower Grade Dao Artifact, it will undergo an unimaginable transformation, opening a passage to the Dragon Realm and drawing forth the Bābù True Dragon Qi, bringing boundless benefits to a cultivator's lifespan, strength, and spirit. I never expected to witness it today."
A peculiar radiance appeared on the face of Sect Master Feng Baiyu.
He grasped a handful of Bābù True Dragon Qi and absorbed it into his body, his expression turning serene.
Clearly, despite having traveled countless realms over the past several millennia, this Sect Master had never reached the legendary Dragon Realm, nor had he ever had the opportunity to obtain the fabled Bābù True Dragon Qi—yet now, deep within the Yuhua Tiangong, inside the Bābù Fútú, he had acquired it.
This could not be called anything less than a tremendous stroke of fortune.
Refining the Bābù Fútú brought immense benefits not only to Fang Yu, but also to every one of the titans who participated in its refinement.
"That is the entrance to the Dragon Realm—just as predicted! This treasure of the dragon race truly holds countless mysteries. Now, our Yuhua Sect possesses a Small Dragon Realm!"
One of the Three Sacred Ones of Yuhua gazed over and absorbed some of the Bābù True Dragon Qi, his mood greatly improved.
Across the heavens and earth, there exist countless worlds; the most mysterious and supreme of them all is, of course, the Immortal Realm. Beyond the Immortal Realm, there are also other extradimensional spaces of great power.
Such as the Void Spirit Realm, the Dragon Realm, the Buddha Realm, the Demon Realm.
These mysterious realms, once a cultivator can sense them—or follows certain meditation and cultivation methods—allow them to draw forth Xu Yuan Qi, temper their body, and augment their magic power.
Worlds like the Dragon Realm are exceedingly mysterious, requiring a special physique or specific cultivation techniques, and only after reaching a certain realm can one open a passage to them.
Now, with the joint effort of the Three Sacred Ones of Yuhua and Sect Master Feng Baiyu, countless celestial treasures and reserves of the Yuhua Sect were consumed, finally elevating the Bābù Fútú entirely to the Lower Grade Dao Artifact, enabling it to open the Dragon Realm and allow the Bābù True Dragon Qi to flow forth continuously.
All this hardship was not in vain!
The Bābù True Dragon Qi differs from ordinary Xu Yuan Qi—it carries a vast, overwhelming dragon breath that can awaken one's bloodline, granting cultivators boundless strength, and extending lifespan. When refined into elixirs, each pill of this Qi is worth more than a Jiazi Great Elixir; increasing one's lifespan by hundreds of years is no difficult feat.
Moreover, if one continuously uses the Bābù True Dragon Qi to refine magic treasures, the treasures themselves can acquire the qualities of ancient heavenly dragons, greatly enhancing their power far beyond ordinary magic treasures.
Now, whether Fang Yu, the Three Sacred Ones of Yuhua, or Sect Master Feng Baiyu, all gazed upon the Bābù Fútú before them—this treasure truly deserved the name "Small Dragon Realm." Vast waves of dragon breath surged ceaselessly from its depths, filling the entire Bābù Fútú with the sound of dragon roars, as if thousands upon thousands of ancient heavenly dragons breathed and chanted in unison.
"Bābù True Dragon Qi, merge with my body!"
Fang Yu's will shifted; he opened his mouth and inhaled, drawing the True Dragon Qi transmitted from the Dragon Realm into his body. Instantly, he felt his Xu Yuan Qi surging, overflowing with abundance—each microscopic particle, nourished by the Bābù True Dragon Qi, began once again to grow stronger.
His magic power had already reached ninety Ancient Heavenly Dragon Powers; further increases were nearly impossible. Yet the Bābù True Dragon Qi carried a mysterious essence that caused his microscopic particles to swell and strengthen, as if his life's genetic code had undergone a transformation.
This sensation was exceedingly comfortable.
At this moment, his strength and lifespan both surged once more due to absorbing the Bābù True Dragon Qi.
"Truly a treasure of the dragon race—I'd even want to forge one myself. But such a treasure is impossibly hard to elevate; if the refinement fails, the loss would be catastrophic—I cannot afford it."
Another Sacred One sighed, gazing at the Bābù Fútú's marvels, longing to forge one himself—but instead of attempting it, he extended a giant hand and continued refining this very Bābù Fútú.
The Dragon Realm's Xu Yuan Qi surged into the Bābù Fútú, into the nine Lower Grade Dao Artifacts, into the central tower, absorbed by each artifact, continuously enhancing the entire Bābù Fútú's power.
Meanwhile, the Three Sacred Ones of Yuhua continued their efforts, aiding the Dragon Qi to flow deeper into the Bābù Fútú, fusing it entirely with the artifact.
The Bābù Fútú grew ever more refined, its material ten to even a hundred times sturdier than before. As it activated, its power merged into a single, unified force. At its very summit, a black vortex appeared, and at its center, faintly visible, was the end of a world—the Dragon Realm.
The Three Sacred Ones' further refinement transformed the Bābù Fútú into a true magic treasure, no longer merely a patchwork of nine Lower Grade Dao Artifacts.
Now, it was a single, unified whole.
"A supreme treasure—indeed a supreme treasure. This artifact alone can crush experts of the Immortal Body realm. Our Yuhua Sect has just gained another Immortal Body expert—and an unparalleled genius among them."
Feng Baiyu smiled.
He could now perceive that the consolidated Bābù Fútú possessed roughly thirty Ancient Heavenly Dragon Powers.
Excellent.
A Lower Grade Dao Artifact possessing thirty Ancient Heavenly Dragon Powers? This defied all conventional understanding of Lower Grade Dao Artifacts.
Normally, a Lower Grade Dao Artifact, painstakingly refined by a Wan Shou Realm giant, possesses power equivalent to one such giant. Thus, a Wan Shou Realm giant wielding one gains double his strength, ensuring victory over an opponent without such an artifact.
Because two Wan Shou giants killing one is hardly difficult.
Yet the power of a typical Lower Grade Dao Artifact rarely exceeds one Ancient Heavenly Dragon Power, and never surpasses two. But now, after its refinement, this Bābù Fútú possessed thirty Ancient Heavenly Dragon Powers!
Thirty Ancient Heavenly Dragon Powers.
This power far surpassed the magic power of ordinary Immortal Body experts—Elder Tian Xing, for instance, possessed only five Ancient Heavenly Dragon Powers.
Meaning, even an Immortal Body giant like Elder Tian Xing would be crushed by this Lower Grade Dao Artifact, the Bābù Fútú.
Even the most exceptional Immortal Body experts, who had cultivated ten or eighteen Ancient Heavenly Dragon Powers, would be instantly suppressed before this Bābù Fútú.
A Lower Grade Dao Artifact capable of suppressing Immortal Body beings? One can only imagine how monstrous this artifact truly was, what kind of supreme treasure it was—and how terrifying it would become if it ascended to the Middle Grade Dao Artifact?
Most crucially, this Lower Grade Dao Artifact had only just taken shape; with prolonged refinement, its power would rise further—dramatically!
The Bābù Fútú, this treasure that opened the Dragon Realm, would continuously draw forth the Bābù True Dragon Qi from the Dragon Realm, enhancing its aura and making it truly a Small Dragon Realm.
Yuhua Sect already possessed a Small Immortal Realm; now this treasure could be called a Small Dragon Realm. If Yuhua Sect disciples entered the Bābù Fútú to cultivate, their physical strength, spiritual power, and lifespan would all rise dramatically.
Especially since the Bābù Fútú already contained one Lower Grade Dao Artifact—the Bābù Smelter—which, when activated, could refine Human Grade Top-Tier elixirs, Earth Grade elixirs, and even Heaven Grade elixirs.
This was a great harvest for the Yuhua Sect!
In refining this Bābù Fútú, the Yuhua Sect gained an unparalleled Immortal Body genius, acquired a Small Dragon Realm, obtained nine Lower Grade Dao Artifacts, and amassed countless Bābù True Dragon Qi.
This harvest was truly immense.
"Fang Yu, refine this Bābù Fútú well. I believe that with this treasure, your path to the Cave Heaven Realm will accelerate greatly. Of course, you may also use this treasure to nurture the disciples of our Yuhua Sect."
One of the Three Sacred Ones of Yuhua spoke.
"Yes, Sacred One."
Fang Yu nodded.
"Very well, go now. We will issue a decree announcing your status as First Fuzhang."
Another Sacred One spoke.
"Yes, thank you, Three Sacred Ones and Sect Master."
Fang Yu reached out, seized the Lower Grade Dao Artifact, and absorbed it into his body, then departed from the Yuhua Tiangong.
Rolling Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi poured into his body every moment, making his frame look immensely powerful, every inch of muscle seemingly an ancient heavenly dragon.
He seemed like an ancient dragon god, possessing incomparably terrifying power.
A single Eight Divisions Pagoda within his body, combined, brought his strength to the force of one hundred and twenty ancient heavenly dragons—though in truth it could not actually be calculated that way.
"Brother Yu, it looks like you've gained enormous benefits this time."
The moment Fang Yu descended upon Feather Peak, Fang Qingxue's gaze swept over him. She sensed that her Brother Yu had undergone many changes again, and seemed truly to have gained enormous benefits within the Yuhua Tiangong.
Fang Han's gaze also turned over, extremely curious.
"Not bad. This time three Saints and the Zhang Sect Supreme personally intervened, helping me successfully refine the Eight Divisions Pagoda. Sister Qingxue, Brother Fang Han, this treasure is indeed a supreme treasure, and will greatly benefit all of our cultivation."
Fang Yu immediately offered up the Eight Divisions Pagoda, and at once rolling Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi flowed out. Every wisp of Xu Yuan Qi contained a vast power and a dense vitality; the moment it appeared, the entire Feather Peak became bursting with life, as if transformed into the domain of giant dragons.
On Feather Peak there were many spiritual medicines and spiritual grasses. Encountering even this tiny bit of Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi, they all began to grow wildly at once, transforming into dragon spiritual medicines and dragon spiritual grasses.
Now, a single such spiritual medicine placed out in the world would be a peerless treasure that countless cultivators would scramble for. If an elder whose lifespan was nearly exhausted bought one back and properly refined it, it could extend his life by a hundred years or more.
This was the terror of the Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi!
A single wisp of its breath could turn a spiritual grass into a supreme treasure.
And such dragon spiritual grasses were countless across all of Feather Peak. In other words, from now on, even without the Five Element Sacred Beasts of the Five Element Lands, Fang Yu alone, by selling dragon spiritual grasses and dragon spiritual medicines, could support the entire Yuhua Sect, high and low.
Fang Yu now felt it more and more keenly: the more divine abilities he cultivated, the more precious the magic treasures he refined, the faster the money came. And a being like him, if he now went to the Shrouding Heaven Realm, or a Perfect World, would be a deity walking the earth.
If he arrived in some world like A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality, he would simply be a founding Dao Ancestor.
He cultivated the Green Emperor Wood Sovereign Art and the Great Five Element Art, which could transform a spiritual grass of no age whatsoever into a divine medicine possessing over ten thousand years of medicinal potency. Then, by applying just a tiny bit of Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi, such a divine medicine would become a dragon divine medicine.
An ordinary spiritual grass with a single year of medicinal potency could be transformed by Fang Yu in an instant into a dragon divine medicine that added several hundred years of lifespan—this was the terrifying power of Fang Yu.
Any such ordinary medicinal herb could be converted by him through the Green Emperor Wood Sovereign Art and the Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi into a dragon divine grass possessing over ten thousand years of medicinal potency. Even Han Li would probably feel his Heaven Controlling Bottle had lost its appeal.
"Eight Divisions Pagoda, Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi? The Zhang Sect Supreme has already refined the Eight Divisions Pagoda into a lower-grade Dao weapon? It seems the Zhang Sect Supreme truly bled heavily this time."
Fang Qingxue felt the Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi transmitted through the void. With a grab of her hand, she absorbed some of the Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi into her body. Immediately, the power within her frame began to increase as well. That Eight Divisions True Dragon Qi from the Dragon Realm continuously restructured her flesh, causing her lifespan to lengthen as well.
