Chapter 793

Fang Yu spoke calmly.

Several people waited here, and indeed, not long after, another ancient giant hurriedly flew over—a tall, slender Daoist, surrounded entirely by Daoist Gang Qi, with thirty-six different-colored Daoist Gang Qi circling him.

"Fang Yu, he is the Tian Gang Patriarch of Tiangang Sect, also a regional giant."

Feng Yaoguang recognized this ancient giant and spoke to Fang Yu.

"Hahaha, Yaoguang Zi, you're waiting here for Old Ancestor? Good, very good. But Old Ancestor won't take you into his harem like Wu Xiang Old Ancestor did—I'm not done living yet. But if I capture you and deliver you to Young Master Chunan, Young Master Chunan will reward me with countless gifts."

After this ancient giant flew over, he glanced around left and right, then burst into laughter.

He stood in empty space, his body surrounded by thirty-six heavenly罡qi, making him resemble a divine emperor of all heavens.

At this moment, he was overjoyed, feeling as if he were about to receive a tremendous reward.

"Yaoguang Zi, and you others, don't resist. You have no idea how terrifying an ancient giant is. If you now surrender without fighting and kneel down, I'll be very pleased."

The Tian Gang Patriarch felt delighted.

He had originally thought he wouldn't get any share of the spoils, because Wu Xiang Old Ancestor was already furious and likely had already acted—or Feitian Old Ancestor might have moved; he knew Feitian Old Ancestor's speed well. But now neither of them had shown up, so he could capture Yaoguang Zi. If he delivered her to Young Master Chunan, Young Master Chunan might even reward him with a mid-grade Dao artifact to help him elevate the realm!

Young Master Chunan, a giant of Wuji Star Palace, had already reached the peak of immortality, begun to comprehend spatial laws, and was also the Supreme Elder of Wuji Star Palace and the son of Star Emperor. That Star Emperor seemed to have cultivated to Longevity Fifth Stage: Creation Realm—the myth among myths, the giant among giants.

If he captured Yaoguang Zi and brought her before Young Master Chunan, he would surely gain immense benefits.

"Tian Gang Patriarch, if I were you, I wouldn't be so happy."

Feng Yaoguang spoke, a faint smile on her face.

"He truly shouldn't be so happy. I'm waiting for the fish to bite, yet the fish is laughing happily."

Fang Yu spoke calmly, then directly extended a finger, and five-colored divine light flowed out.

The Three Thousand Great Dao: Great Five Elements Art.

Each ray of divine light was a supreme divine ability, 凝聚 together endlessly, cycling in harmony, containing tens of billions of terrifying power.

As soon as the five-colored divine light appeared, the Tian Gang Patriarch's smile froze.

"How is this possible?"

An endless fear rose in the heart of this patriarch; he wanted to flee, but the five-colored divine light was too fast, too powerful—he could only watch helplessly.

Truly, he could only watch helplessly. He tried to mobilize his magic power, tried to self-explode, but it was already too late.

The divine light swept down, directly erasing this ancient giant; all his laws, essence, and core were absorbed into the five-colored divine light.

This arrogant ancient giant, the Tian Gang Patriarch of Tiangang Sect, was thus slain.

One, another, yet another.

These once lofty ancient giants, who held extremely high status and were respected by others wherever they went, now fell before Fang Yu within a short time—three of them.

Wu Xiang Old Ancestor, Feitian Old Ancestor, Tian Gang Patriarch.

This Tian Gang Patriarch also possessed two low-grade Dao artifacts, ten million pure yang elixirs, and some Dao artifact fragments.

In addition, the Tian Gang Patriarch had cultivated sixty-four divine abilities, thirty-six of which were supreme divine abilities, obtained from a great immortal fortune he found once in a secret realm of the Wuji Great World.

Anyone who reaches the Longevity Secret Realm is someone with great fortune and extraordinary encounters. Otherwise, starting from the lowly Physical Body Secret Realm, one must endure the 10th Stage of Physical Body, break through into the Divine Ability Secret Realm, then advance from 1st Stage of Divine Abilities in the Magical Power Realm, comprehend yin and yang, comprehend heaven and humanity, survive the Wind and Fire Great Calamity, reverse fate, and finally break into the Longevity Secret Realm—how easy is that?

Fortune.

A tremendous fortune.

Among countless cultivators on the Chaotic Continent, over ten billion in total, only thirteen individuals obtained boundless immortal fortunes and rose step by step to the Longevity Secret Realm.

But now, all their efforts have turned to water, becoming Fang Yu's benefits, Fang Yu's fortune.

"Three ancient giants should be enough."

Fang Yu had directly killed three of the thirteen ancient giants; he continued waiting here, but he estimated it would be difficult to encounter other ancient giants again.

So he immediately began refining elixirs here.

"Sister Qingxue, Brother Han, Sister Yaoguang, let's refine the Nine Revival Soul Elixir here."

Fang Yu's will shifted, enveloping the three of them and entering the Chaos Tower, specifically into the Eight Sections Pagoda within it.

The Eight Sections Pagoda is currently a low-grade Dao artifact; its Eight Sections Furnace is also a low-grade Dao artifact, so it can certainly refine the Nine Revival Soul Elixir.

"Brother Fang Yu, how many extraordinary fortunes have you gained? You've actually succeeded in crafting such a supreme treasure—the Eight Sections Pagoda? And you've even refined it to the low-grade Dao artifact level and opened the Dragon Realm? These are the Eight Sections True Dragon Qi—each strand of Eight Sections True Dragon Qi can increase a cultivator's lifespan and magic power, aiding them in entering the Longevity Secret Realm! Heaven, this is utterly unbelievable."

Feng Yaoguang entered the Eight Sections Pagoda and saw at its deepest core a mysterious world, from which Eight Sections True Dragon Qi surged endlessly, each strand radiating the grandeur and vastness of the Dragon Realm, imbued with unimaginable life energy.

Feng Yaoguang felt that if she could often cultivate within this Eight Sections Pagoda, even without obtaining the Nine Revival Soul Elixir, she could ascend to the ancient giant realm.

"Sister Yaoguang may cultivate within my Eight Sections Pagoda. If you ascend to the ancient giant realm and awaken your past-life memories, your power will greatly increase."

Fang Yu smiled. He looked forward to Feng Yaoguang ascending to the ancient giant realm—this daughter of the Zhang Sect had taught him the Hong Meng Heavenly Dao, though he could not cultivate it himself. But if Feng Yaoguang reached the ancient giant realm and awakened some secrets of the Heaven Emperor Mirror's spirit, and passed them to him, it would also enhance his cultivation.

So Fang Yu had no objection to nurturing Feng Yaoguang.

The spirit of the Heaven Emperor Mirror belongs to the giant level.

"Yes, Brother Fang Yu, thank you so much. If I ascend to the ancient giant realm, I will never compete with you—I will surely assist you."

Feng Yaoguang had genuinely begun calling Fang Yu "Brother." Originally, she had entered Yuhua Sect far earlier than him; when she reached the Golden Core Realm, Fang Yu hadn't even entered Yuhua Sect. But in the Dao Cultivation World, realm is supreme—whichever cultivator has higher cultivation base is the senior. Thus, she now willingly called Fang Yu "Brother Fang Yu."

"Did Brother also capture the Soul-Eating Holy Beast?"

Feng Yaoguang was thanking Fang Yu for allowing her to absorb the Eight Sections True Dragon Qi when suddenly her thoughts shifted to one thing.

To refine the Nine Revival Soul Elixir, the Soul-Eating Holy Beast must be the main ingredient—this was why, despite gathering many herbs, she could not refine the Nine Revival Soul Elixir. Now that Brother Fang Yu said he would refine it, didn't that mean the Soul-Eating Holy Beast had already been obtained by Brother Fang Yu?

"My luck's been decent—I encountered it on the way and sealed it."

As Fang Yu spoke, he sent the sealed Soul-Eating Holy Beast into the Eight Sections Furnace. At the same time, Feng Yaoguang also sent all the herbs she had gathered into the low-grade Dao artifact—the Eight Sections Furnace. Then Fang Yu began refining the elixir.

His body immediately transformed, sprouting over a dozen hands from various parts, each casting a succession of refining incantations upon the Eight Sections Furnace.

This was the Lianzhifa Sect from the Dragon Scripture.

Normally, refining a supreme-grade elixir like the Nine Revival Soul Elixir is nearly impossible for a single ancient giant—it requires several ancient giants working together to succeed. But what realm has Fang Yu reached?

He is a giant of Immortal Body, his Heavenly Law Form and physical body long since fused—his Heavenly Law Form is his physical body, his physical body is his Heavenly Law Form. His body has transformed into countless independent particles; with a slight movement, he can sprout over a dozen hands, all casting incantations simultaneously to refine.

Of course, Fang Yu could also transform into dozens of Fang Yus, each casting hand seals to refine this supreme-grade elixir.

The Longevity Secret Realm, the Immortal Body — compared to the Wan Shou realm, it was far, far more wondrous. Countless particles, capable of countless transformations, had even reached a realm where one could be male or female at will.

If a titan of the Immortal Body was willing, he could indeed freely alter the structure of his flesh — the protruding parts of his body sinking inward, the flat places growing outward — and combined with the changes of every component within, he could transform directly from male to female.

The Longevity Secret Realm, the Immortal Body, able to be male or female — one might call such a being a deity, and refer to them as "He" in the sacred sense.

Back when Fang Yu had encountered that Heavenly Demon Devil God before the Grand Primeval Immortal Mansion, that being had surpassed the Immortal Body — spending sixty years as a man, sixty years as a woman, wandering the mortal world in search of handsome youths and beautiful maidens among common folk, cultivating a certain divine ability.

Fang Yu had once thought this method of cultivation utterly horrifying, but now it seemed terribly dull and slow — at least a hundred and twenty years to cultivate a single divine ability? By then the dish would have gone stone cold.

While Fang Yu was lost in thought, the hands beneath him never paused for a moment. Inside the Eight-Part Furnace — that lower-grade Dao artifact — countless formations flowed, grand arrays activated one after another, and there was even a music formation, singing lullabies to soothe the Soul-Devouring Sacred Beast to sleep.

Within the Eight-Part Furnace, thick fragrance after thick fragrance bubbled forth in succession, until at last it seemed as if nine living beings were gestating into form.

All the life essence of the Soul-Devouring Sacred Beast transformed into nine primal embryos, and those nine primal embryos finally became nine elixirs.

Especially that fragrance — it gave one the feeling that, upon smelling it, the memories of a thousand lifetimes would awaken.

Nine-Turn Soul-Returning Elixir!

"Rise."

The Eight-Part Furnace trembled violently. With a beckoning gesture from Fang Yu, the lid of the elixir furnace flew open at once, and nine golden, gleaming elixirs shot out.

Each golden, gleaming elixir seemed to leap and dance like a star, flashing a brilliant radiance — yet this radiance was not harsh to the eye, flowing instead like liquid, seeping into one's very soul, giving one the sensation that one's spirit could pierce through past lives and present.

Fine elixirs.

Elixirs without peer under heaven.

A Heaven-grade supreme elixir — the Nine-Turn Soul-Returning Elixir — successfully refined!

Fang Yu had now reached the point where he himself could refine Heaven-grade elixirs.

Not long ago, things like Heaven-grade elixirs were lofty, unreachable objects. To obtain even one would be immensely beneficial to one's cultivation base, yet one simply could not refine them oneself — one had to seek out various ruins, and if a few were found within, that would be a heaven-sent opportunity.

Back then, the Yin-Yang Longevity Elixir had been lofty and unreachable in Fang Yu's eyes.

Back then, the Dragon God Elixir, the Lei Gu Relic Elixir, the Nirvana Elixir, the Five Clouds Ascension Elixir — all of them had been lofty and unreachable in Fang Yu's eyes.

But now, Fang Yu could refine these Heaven-grade elixirs himself; he could create heaven-sent immortal opportunities for others.

A single Heaven-grade elixir could indeed change a person's life, alter their fate entirely.

In the mortal world, there was often a tale of a scholar who, by chance, sought the Dao and visited immortals, caught the scent of an elixir, and then — his wisdom suddenly unlocked, a completely different man from before — placed first in the imperial examination, won a beautiful wife, and rose to the pinnacle of life.

All of this could be accomplished by a single Heaven-grade elixir.

"Now, I am another's opportunity…"
