Chapter 913

He, with the Three Thousand Great Dao and the Great Calamity Destiny Art, could clearly see that these disciples were indeed geniuses; obviously, after he, this peerless genius, opened the granaries of Yuhua Sect, even more geniuses came flocking.

"Since that's the case, I'll cultivate them even more diligently. If these disciples raise their cultivation base, they might gain even more divine fortunes, and some of those divine fortunes could benefit both you and me."

Fang Yu smiled.

The group descended upon Yu Peak, immediately drawing the attention of many; upon seeing Fang Yu arrive, the Yuhua Sect's true disciples immediately bowed respectfully.

"We pay homage to the First Vice Sect Master! May the First Vice Sect Master enjoy boundless divine fortune and longevity equal to heaven and earth!"

Some Yuhua Sect disciples who had long known of Fang Yu bowed at once; those who had just entered and had never seen Fang Yu in person but had seen his portrait also immediately knelt down.

"Heavens, this is Senior Brother Fang Yu, the First Vice Sect Master of Yuhua Sect? He's so powerful—his aura is as towering as Dashan, no, as vast as the sea, no, neither mountain nor sea can describe his might, his grandeur!"

Zhao Fengquan, a outer sect disciple who had reached the 10th Stage of Physical Body, felt a storm of shock surge within him.

He did not belong to any dynasty under Yuhua Sect's dominion—not from the Great De Dynasty, Great Xu Dynasty, or Great Li Dynasty—but was a cultivator from a city within the Great Xuan Empire, himself from a prominent family.

Logically, as a subject of the Great Xuan Empire, his first choice for a cultivation sect should have been Taiyi Sect, one of the Xiandaoshi Sects; moreover, every city in the Great Yuan Empire housed a Taiyi Sect martial hall, and any cultivator who reached the 10th Stage of Physical Body could attempt to enter the Taiyi Sect martial hall, and upon passing the examination, become a Mendewai Sect disciple.

But Zhao Fengquan had heard legends of Fang Yu, the First Vice Sect Master of Yuhua Sect, who had entered the famed Longevity Secret Realm before even Taiyi Sect's top true disciple; he felt a strong urge to boldly try—go to Yuhua Sect!

Thus, he made a decision that defied his ancestors.

He left the city of Taiyi Sect and journeyed to Yuhua Sect to become a disciple.

This was naturally an extremely difficult endeavor, but fortunate for him, as the peerless genius of the Zhao family, he had already reached the 10th Stage of Physical Body at just seventeen, and had been granted a spiritual artifact by his family's patriarch, enabling him to travel countless millions of miles from Taiyi Sect's territory to Yuhua Sect and successfully become a disciple.

And today, here, he saw the legendary Senior Brother Fang Yu, the First Vice Sect Master—he immediately knew he had come to the right place.

That legendary First Vice Sect Master was truly a divine, demonic entity; merely standing there, he radiated an eternal, primordial aura, a divine essence; merely breathing it in, he felt his spirit uplifted and his physical strength increase.

It was easy to imagine that if he could cultivate under this Vice Sect Master, his breakthrough into the Divine Ability Secret Realm would be effortless.

At that moment, he felt Fang Yu Rourou Xianzun's gaze turn toward him.

He instantly felt every secret within him exposed—as if, before this Immortal Sovereign, nothing remained hidden.

"All of you are geniuses of Yuhua Sect, and today, as I arrived, I noticed many unfamiliar faces—surely disciples who have come to cultivate here recently. Your choice is exceedingly wise. Today, as we meet, I shall lend you all a helping hand."

Fang Yu, seeing the many disciples, gestured with his hand, and immediately the Eightfold Pagoda soared into the sky; at that moment, the subtle Dao sounds flowed from this lower-grade Dao artifact—the morning bell and evening drum rang out.

Lower-grade Dao artifact: Morning Bell.

Lower-grade Dao artifact: Evening Drum.

Without the Mandate Ball, without the Mingwang Axe, without the Eightfold Crucible, merely the sound of these two lower-grade Dao artifacts caused every disciple on Yu Peak to feel their Dao heart purified; their minds became crystal clear, and countless things they had never understood in past years suddenly became clear.

Then, vast quantities of pure yang energy and Eightfold True Dragon qi surged forth and descended into each disciple's body.

Immediately, these disciples' strength began to rise.

Every single one, without hesitation, began frantic cultivation.

They all knew this was their greatest divine fortune—indeed, every time the Vice Sect Master returned to Yuhua Sect, it was their greatest divine fortune; if they failed to seize this fortune, their lives would be utter failures.

This single opportunity for cultivation could rival centuries of their own practice.

Tell me, across heaven and earth, among all Xiandao Sect Sects and Modaomen Sects, how many disciples have ever encountered the guidance of a Longevity Secret Realm eternal giant?

Merely encountering a 7th Stage of Divine Abilities Golden Core Realm expert for guidance is already exceedingly rare!

Thus, all disciples began earnest cultivation.

"Galan, I now transmit to you an ancient Divine Ability: the Formless True Scripture. Long Xuan, I now transmit to you a supreme Divine Ability: the Ancient Divine Dragon Transformation. Ye Yu, Xu Yue'er, I transmit to each of you a supreme Divine Ability—once you obtain them, your strength will greatly increase."

Fang Yu had slain several eternal giants on the Chaotic Continent and acquired many of their Divine Abilities; now, casually bestowing a few, he instantly boosted the Yuhua Sect disciples' strength.

These elder ancestors carried numerous celestial treasures; using these treasures to cultivate their Divine Abilities was far more efficient than merely granting the techniques and forcing disciples to spend years in arduous practice.

Meanwhile, Fang Yu reached out with a giant hand, and the power of the Great Blood Soul Art flowed into countless disciples' bodies.

The Great Blood Soul Art possesses supreme subtlety: it can devour others' flesh and manifest the wondrous transformation of all things into blood, appearing like a Modaomen technique, yet it also enhances a cultivator's physical strength; especially when wielded by Fang Yu at his realm, even a casual movement could reshape the physical bodies of Yuhua Sect disciples, making it far easier for them to reach higher realms.

Whether advancing from the 10th Stage of Physical Body to the Divine Ability Secret Realm, or ascending between stages within the Divine Ability Secret Realm, the Great Blood Soul Art proved highly effective.

"My power is rising so fast—if this continues, I fear I'll break through into the Divine Ability Secret Realm today! Originally, I estimated it would take me two years to reach that breakthrough, but now it could happen today?"

Zhao Fengquan, from the Great Xuan Empire, could hardly believe his eyes—he felt tiny threads of blood qi entering his body, greatly increasing his physical strength; as the surging divine qi and dragon qi flooded in, his physical and spiritual power surged wildly, nearing the brink of transformation.

He was overjoyed, utterly astonished.

Yet those who gained even greater increases were those already within the Divine Ability Secret Realm.

For instance, Long Xuan, who was half-human, half-dragon, now with the Eightfold Pagoda's enhancement, surged forward and entered the 6th Stage of Divine Abilities, Return to Oneness Realm.

Moreover, her magic power surpassed that of ordinary 6th Stage of Divine Abilities Return to Oneness Realm experts.

Ordinary 5th Stage of Divine Abilities Heavenly Man Realm cultivators, having condensed many great arrays, possessed magic power equivalent to ten thousand horsepower.

6th Stage of Divine Abilities Return to Oneness Realm experts, who had condensed their life talismans, possessed power ranging from tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand.

The 7th Stage of Divine Abilities Golden Core Realm reached hundreds of thousands—minimum twenty to thirty thousand, maximum fifty to sixty thousand.

But now, after reaching the 6th Stage of Divine Abilities Return to Oneness Realm, Long Xuan's magic power had soared to one million—such profound magic power surpassed even ordinary Golden Core Realm experts.

Galan, too, had reached the 10th Stage of Divine Abilities, Reverse Heaven and Alter Fate; on the Longevity Candidate List, he could rank among the top thirty.

Last time, Fang Yu helped Galan successfully forge a lower-grade Dao artifact; with Galan's current strength—10th Stage of Divine Abilities plus a lower-grade Dao artifact—he could indeed rank among the top thirty on the Longevity Candidate List.

Of course, the greatest beneficiary was Fang Yu himself; during these days of cultivation, he reorganized all his Great Dao Divine Abilities, and within his body, the various Great Dao techniques flowed, strengthening his mind force and soul force—techniques like the Great Universal Salvation Art, which condense into myriad forms through mind force, such as the Heavenly Eye, Heavenly Ear, Mind-Reading, and so on; at the highest level, all thoughts of all beings across the Three Thousand Great Worlds became visible and audible to him.

When an enemy's mind stirred to strike him, his own mind instantly knew. This Divine Ability was terrifyingly potent, allowing him to anticipate his enemy's moves before they occurred.

In this refinement of his own Divine Abilities, Fang Yu's magic power and lifespan did not increase, but his comprehension of the Great Dao techniques grew ever deeper.

In his perception, every Great Dao technique, when fully understood, seemed to contain principles of space and time—whether the Great Teleportation Art, the Great World Art, the Great Cutting Art, or the Character Secret from the Shrouding Heaven Realm.

As he cultivated, he increasingly sensed this world as boundless, composed of countless trillions of twisted spaces; any movement felt like a fish in water observing people on shore, perceiving countless parallel dimensions and spatial forces.

The entire universe gradually appeared different to him—he was nearing the touch of this world's true fundamental laws.

"Senior Sister Qingxue, I plan to journey to the Kanli Great World now—will you come with me? I feel this trip may fully unveil the mysteries of space."

Fang Yu spoke.

"Alright."
