Chapter 956: Of Course I Came to the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land with Money to Spare!
Within the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land, Fang Yu observed this Xiandao Sect Sect's cave-heaven blessed land with great interest.
In this unique void, boundless white clouds could be seen everywhere, an ocean of clouds stretched in all directions, and between the sea of clouds, massive islands and Xianshan rose in every place, along with various immortal birds and spirit beasts, all riding the clouds and racing through the mist.
One could even see golden flood dragons appearing and disappearing between the sea of clouds, sometimes within the clouds, sometimes darting out of them, while high above, powerful five-colored spirit eagles soared through the heavens—these five-colored spirit eagles were born of phoenixes and other birds, innately endowed with bronze skin and iron bones, able to swallow and spit flames, melting rock, and with just a little cultivation could rival experts of the Divine Ability Secret Realm.
Sea of clouds, Xianshan, archipelagoes, flood dragons, five-colored spirit eagles.
These composed the Shanmen of the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land—one had to say, compared to the Shanmen of the Yuhua Sect or the Primeval Meteorite Shanmen of the Qunxing Sect, this was far more wondrous. With the immense magic power of Exalted Linglong Xianzun, she had carved out this stretch of void herself, creating an endless sea of clouds, raising up boundless Xianshan and islands—equivalent to directly opening up an entire world.
The might of Exalted Linglong Xianzun immediately revealed itself.
The Exalted Linglong Blessed Land had no Supreme Elder, no other backers—everything here was supported by Exalted Linglong Xianzun alone. This Xianzun, by her own strength, contended against the Taiyi Sect which possessed immortal artifacts, turning her hand to make clouds and overturning them to make rain—terrifying beyond all bounds.
And atop those thousands upon thousands of cloud-sea Xianshan and archipelagoes, Fang Yu saw an immense, boundless Xianshan. This mountain took the shape of the ten directions, extending directly into the endless void, its body displaying a faint golden hue, reaching billions of zhang in height. An immensely powerful aura emanated from within the Xianshan, so that any person arriving before it would seem like a single grain of dust.
"Fellow Daoist, this is the Sumeru Jin Shan where the Xianzun resides—a Top-Grade Dao item. Back when the Supreme Elder Tai Yutian of the Taiyi Sect came to our Exalted Linglong Blessed Land to act wantonly, he was directly suppressed to death by the Xianzun using the Sumeru Jin Shan."
Qiu Qiu Xiyu accompanied Fang Yu at his side, and seeing Fang Yu's gaze fall upon the Sumeru Jin Shan ahead, she introduced it.
"As for the other Xianshan and archipelagoes, they are inhabited by the other disciples of our Exalted Linglong Blessed Land."
"Exalted Linglong Xianzun's magic power is truly profound."
Fang Yu clicked his tongue in praise.
"Fellow Daoist, please!"
Heavenly Punishment Elder Qiu Qiu Xiyu once more invited Fang Yu forward.
The group traveled forward together, encountering along the way many cultivators who had come to offer congratulations, and many cultivators whose gazes fell upon Fang Yu's party.
"Ah, isn't that the Heavenly Punishment Elder of the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land? She's actually being so courteous to a young man—could that young man be the son of some Demon Emperor, or the son of some Xiandaozhang Sect?"
"Zhang Kuang, it seems you're also someone out of the loop. That existence is none other than Fang Yu Xianzun of the Yuhua Sect—the foremost expert among the younger generation of the Huang Da World to first cultivate to the Longevity Secret Realm! I heard that when he was still in the Divine Ability Secret Realm, he slew the Ten Thousand Ancient Overlord Ruyizi within his own sect, and then directly advanced, cultivating to the Longevity Secret Realm. Now he is the First Fuzhang Sect of the Xiandaoshi Sect's Yuhua Sect!"
"Such an existence actually exists—one who could slay a Ten Thousand Ancient Overlord while in the Divine Ability Secret Realm? That's simply too inconceivable. The gap between the Divine Ability Secret Realm and a Ten Thousand Ancient Overlord is far too vast. My own master is also a Ten Thousand Ancient Overlord, and in my eyes he is like a heavenly god—such an existence, how could he possibly be defeated by a cultivator of the Divine Ability Secret Realm?"
"Nothing is impossible. If it were impossible, the Heavenly Punishment Elder of the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land would not be accompanying this Xianzun. There are simply too many heaven-defying geniuses in this world—we cannot imagine why they are able to cultivate so swiftly!"
"That is true as well."
Many discussions arose. Those who were somewhat unfamiliar with Fang Yu were basically all disciples from planets millions of li away above the Nine Heavens Gang Wind Layer of the Huang Da World. The outer layers of the Huang Da World contained many planets, and upon them were also many Xiandao Sect Sect, though not as formidable as the Xiandaoshi Sect, the resources of a single planet were still enough to nurture a single Ten Thousand Ancient Overlord.
A single Ten Thousand Ancient Overlord could indeed occupy an entire planet, establish a sect upon it, and found a domain. On some planets, a single Ten Thousand Ancient Overlord could even cultivate several 10th Stage of Divine Abilities experts, as well as dozens of Jin Dan experts, and dominate a region.
Besides this, the headquarters of the three great commercial societies—the Liudao Alliance, Jiuding Xuan, and Tiandao Pavilion—were also all in the extraterritorial lands. The three great overlords—Liudao Sanren, Jiuding Xianzun, and Tiandao Dharma King—each resided on planets outside the Huang Da World, each ruling over many planets, with branches in all major worlds conducting trade in elixirs, magic treasures, or secret intelligence. Their power was in no way inferior to that of the Xiandaoshi Sect or the Seven Branches of the Demon Sect.
This time, the three great commercial societies had also come to offer birthday congratulations to Exalted Linglong Xianzun. As Fang Yu flew forward, he saw that all three great commercial societies had sent many people, bearing lavish gifts.
"Today's blessed land is truly lively."
As Fang Yu advanced, he could hear the conversations of various cultivators—for instance, in some place overseas, a flood dragon had appeared, and many cultivators had fought each other over it, and in the end who had obtained it.
Or how, in some year and some month, a certain loose cultivator had discovered an ancient ruin, obtained a Top-Grade treasure, greatly increased his strength, and actually founded a Xiandao Sect Sect of no small size, recruiting many disciples and reigning as overlord and ancestor over a region.
Or how someone traveling through the Guixu Lands had encountered massive swarms of Heavenly Demons and ultimately perished—a great expert who had cultivated to reach the Heavenly Man Realm, dying just like that.
Countless pieces of news came flowing in, and at this moment, Fang Yu's party had already arrived beneath the Sumeru Jin Shan.
Only upon arriving beneath the Sumeru Jin Shan did one realize the enormity of this mountain. This Jin Shan was practically like a world Shenshan—if driven with sufficient pure Yang energy, its might would be terrifyingly boundless; any star or star domain, this Sumeru Jin Shan could smash apart in a single blow.
This was the Top-Grade Dao item of the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land, giving off an utterly oppressive aura.
Fang Yu carefully examined this Jin Shan, sensing layer upon layer of Jin Guang continuously descending from it—extremely tight, unbreakable, no less formidable than the Boundless Divine Light Fang Yu himself cultivated. It was clearly a supreme divine light, called the Great Sumeru Divine Light.
If such divine light were driven by an expert, it could completely suppress a region of void, compressing any void extremely tightly. In other words, even a legendary existence like Fang Yu who had cultivated to the 3rd Stage of Longevity, the Cave Heaven Realm, would be unable to tear open space and leave when faced with this Great Sumeru Divine Light.
This was perfectly normal—the might of a Top-Grade Dao item, if fully driven, could not necessarily be withstood even by experts of the 6th Stage of Longevity, the Heavenly Throne Realm, or even the 7th Stage of Longevity, the Realm King Realm.
"Fellow Daoist, please!"
The Great Sumeru Divine Light was extremely terrifying, but with Heavenly Punishment Elder Qiu Qiu Xiyu present, with a casual gesture the Sumeru Divine Light parted on its own, and so Fang Yu, Fang Han, Nebula Baby, and the others entered.
Once inside, it was yet another world entirely. Many female disciples of the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land were here to welcome guests. Seeing Heavenly Punishment Elder personally escorting several existences in, they were all startled, then displayed respectful expressions: "Greetings, Heavenly Punishment Elder! Greetings, Fang Yu Xianzun!"
These female disciples' cultivation bases were not particularly high—they had not stepped into the Divine Ability Secret Realm, being at the 9th or 10th Stage of Physical Body—but they carried many magic treasures on their persons.
Their dharma robes were spirit artifacts, their flying swords came in complete sets, the hairpins on their heads, the necklaces around their necks, the bracelets on their wrists, the rings on their fingers—all were spirit artifacts, and there were even treasure artifacts!
The Exalted Linglong Blessed Land's wealth and bold generosity immediately revealed itself.
Such Physical Body Secret Realm experts, covered from head to toe in spirit artifacts and treasure artifacts, possessed terrifying combat power as well.
The many disciples of the Yuhua Sect, if not for Fang Yu's bestowals, simply could not compare to the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land. However, in recent days, the disciples of the Yuhua Sect had received many benefits from Fang Yu, and also obtained many spirit artifacts and treasure artifacts, and each of them had become wealthy and generous as well.
At this moment, these Physical Body Secret Realm disciples of the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land actually also knew of Fang Yu's great name, and directly paid respects to Fang Yu, which immediately brought a faint smile to Fang Yu's face.
With a casual toss, several hundred streams of radiance flowed out, landing in the hands of every Physical Body Secret Realm female disciple.
"These little trinkets—you may take them and play with them."
Fang Yu's voice rang out across the scene.
"Ah, it's actually a High-Grade treasure artifact!"
"Mine is also a High-Grade treasure artifact!"
"This High-Grade treasure artifact sword—its might is simply too great. The Xianzun actually bestowed upon me a High-Grade treasure artifact flying sword?"
"And this bow, these arrows—they're actually all High-Grade treasure artifacts!"
These female disciples of the Exalted Linglong Blessed Land saw that they had gained some radiance in their hands, and upon closer inspection discovered that the treasures in their hands were all High-Grade treasure artifacts. The quality of each High-Grade treasure artifact was extremely high—if the full might of a single treasure artifact were unleashed, it could add over a million units of Huang Da Warhorse strength. Immediately they were all overjoyed, some even hesitating whether to accept such treasures, and could not help but turn their gazes toward the Heavenly Punishment Elder beside them.
"Since these are bestowals from the Xianzun, you may accept them. Have you not yet thanked the Xianzun!"
Heavenly Punishment Elder Qiu Qiu Xiyu, smiling amiably, could not help but praise as she spoke with a smile.
"Many thanks to the Xianzun for his bestowal!"
All the Physical Body Secret Realm female disciples, hearing these words, joyfully expressed their thanks.
A single High-Grade treasure artifact, for disciples like them whose cultivation was only at the 9th or 10th Stage of Physical Body, was simply too precious. Their own strength was only five units of Huang Da Warhorse strength, but this single High-Grade treasure artifact—even without unleashing its full might—was enough to allow them to withstand experts of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Stage of Divine Abilities. And if they burned elixirs, such a magic treasure would be enough to withstand experts of the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities, the Heavenly Man Realm.
Having obtained such High-Grade treasure artifacts, the safety of their future outings to gather spiritual herbs and temper themselves would be greatly enhanced—this was practically the grace of rebirth.
How could they possibly not be overjoyed?
Fang Yu smiled and continued striding forward. Ahead lay broad avenues, with palaces, flying waterfalls, and flowing streams lining the way. Within the Sumeru Jin Shan, he could even sense a tremendous power of will—he did not know how much space lay hidden within, nor how many living beings were praying within.
Whether it was the Yuhua Sect or the Qunxing Sect, within their Top-Grade Dao artifacts they all kept living beings. The living beings of dozens of nations were kept directly within the Top-Grade Dao artifacts of the Xiandao Sect Sect, praying every day to generate wish-power for the Xiandao Sect Sect. The Exalted Linglong Blessed Land was no exception.
Fang Yu even had a feeling that in certain voids within this Mount Sumeru, there seemed to be the aura of Primeval Heavenly Dragons, as if Exalted Linglong Xianzun had kept many Primeval Heavenly Dragons to help her open the Dragon Realm, using the Qi of the Eight Divisions of True Dragons to refine this Top-Grade Dao artifact, Mount Sumeru.
To others this would seem inconceivable, but given Exalted Linglong Xianzun's strength, it was entirely possible.
"Ah, Xianzun, you've come!"
As they advanced further, over a dozen female disciples of the Divine Ability Secret Realm came to greet them. One of them, wearing a green gauze robe embroidered with willow leaves, elegant and unadorned, with delicate brows, her magic power extremely vigorous, upon seeing Fang Yu suddenly became overjoyed and came forward to meet him.
"Lü Qiao, it's been several days."
