One breath is 7.2 seconds.
One hundred breaths is 720 seconds.
Fang Shi’s reaction speed is 128 times that of a normal human.
Ten days and nights for an ordinary person equal two hours for him.
But humans are not immortals or gods; they grow fatigued, and their brains cannot operate at full capacity.
Moreover, Fang Shi’s neural reaction speed far exceeds his physical and mental limits.
Short-term combat is fine, but using full power for cultivation is nonsense.
Yet even so, in the state of an immortal body,
One second of thought equals eight hours of his own cultivation.
And Fang Shi spent exactly fifty breaths cultivating.
That is 360 seconds, equivalent to 120 days of nonstop cultivation without sleep.
Within this brief span of fifty breaths,
Fang Shi raised most of his skills to 14 points, some even beyond 14.
He also brought the Turtle Stone Sword Art and Hawk Hunting Sword Art to perfection.
In midair, Fang Shi opened his eyes while meditating.
A blinding divine light shot forth from his eyes.
This was the manifestation of his essence surpassing mortal limits.
“Enough!”
An invisible shockwave exploded, its sound like thunder, shaking heaven and earth.
Accompanied by raging winds that swept through the high skies.
The True Immortal Blessing was external power; Fang Shi lacked sufficient perception and intellect.
He could not fully control himself—yet exhaling became wind, breathing became thunder.
These were now commonplace.
This was why, the moment he gained power, Fang Shi surged into the sky.
He feared his every movement might damage Long Yu Mountain.
Fang Shi had asked Long Yu True Person what would happen to this realm after the heart demon vanished.
Long Yu True Person told him that after the heart demon vanished, this realm would develop normally.
No longer trapped in endless cycles, it would absorb chaotic energy and gradually expand.
Until it grew into a proper small world.
Thus, whenever possible, Fang Shi would preserve Long Yu Mountain.

And not, upon gaining power, act recklessly.
Indifferent to the lives of all beings in this realm.
“Good!” said Long Yu True Person joyfully.
“Have you sensed the heart demon’s aura?
It’s over the ruins of Tongchang.”
“Remember, the heart demon has no vital point; the statue is not its fatal weakness.”
“She is the land of Tongchang. You need only destroy the ruins of Tongchang.”
“Understood.” Fang Shi nodded.
He thought of it, and in twenty seconds he arrived above Tongchang.
Tongchang County was no longer ruins.
Countless toad people lived within it, cutting trees and moving boulders.
In a short time, they had turned the ruins into a town.
At the town’s center stood a magnificent structure.
It was the heart demon’s temple, built to collect incense and prayers.
To grow stronger.
Boom!
With acceleration exceeding ten thousand g, Fang Shi plunged from ten thousand meters high to the ground in just two seconds.
Boom!
A colossal mushroom cloud erupted skyward, endless dust spreading everywhere.
No matter monster or building, all turned to ash.
Due to the extreme brevity, no monster reacted in time.
Most saw only the fire falling from the sky before the explosion occurred.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Within a hundred seconds, Fang Shi swung one hundred thousand punches at the heart demon’s statue.
Before the dust from the last blast had cleared, another rose into the sky.
The statue’s location was directly punched into a vacuum.
With immense kinetic force, the ground kept sinking.
The entire land of Tongchang formed a vast pit centered on the statue.
Due to intense heat from air friction,
The pit was filled with lava, as if standing at the mouth of a volcano.
“Master, how is this statue so hard! My attacks can’t shatter it!”
Though not the heart demon’s vital point, the statue was a key node.
If Fang Shi did not destroy it, his damage to Tongchang would be limited.
“Hold on! The heart demon’s statue is drawing on residual power to protect itself.”
“But its power will run out. Keep pressing, and you will break the statue.”
Encouraged Long Yu True Person, who now felt anxious.
The endless cycle was about to end; the heart demon’s world would break free from the Heavenly Sovereign.
Crack!
Another hundred seconds passed; a crack finally appeared on the statue’s crown.
Like the final straw that breaks the camel’s back.
Boom!
One more punch struck—the entire statue shattered into dust.
Fang Shi’s immortal body was invincible; nothing could resist it.
At this moment, the remaining time of the immortal body was twenty breaths!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Black clouds gathered; the sun vanished the instant the statue shattered.
The entire realm changed color; violent winds swept across the land.
Uprooting ancient trees, cracking massive mountains, sending boulders tumbling through forests.
Lightning flashed within the black clouds, as if the whole world were enraged.
“Fang Shi, increase your speed—the heavenly punishment is coming.”
“This is the heart demon’s final counterattack. If you endure it, the heart demon will have no strength left to fight back.”

【From the End of the World, I Alone Severed Ten Thousand Ages】【】
True Person Long Yu exclaimed excitedly, his voice brimming with joy.
BOOM!
The earth exploded open; Fang Shi hammered the ground like a pile driver, striking relentlessly.
Molten lava surged skyward in all directions.
It blotted out the sun and sky, the searing flames turning the dark heavens a blazing red.
At this moment, Fang Shi sensed that a force deep within the earth was weakening.
With each of his strikes, the rate of its decline accelerated.
The duration of the Immortal Body remains ten breaths.
CRACKLE!
Nine thunderbolts, piercing heaven and earth, crashed down.
Like nine blue-white colossal dragons, they plunged deep into the pit.
Even the glow of the molten lava was swallowed; the entire sky blazed as bright as day.
RUSTLE! RUSTLE! RUSTLE!
Facing the wrath of heaven and earth, Fang Shi’s Immortal Body trembled violently.
“You have been struck by Purple Thunder of the Nine Heavens.”
“Your health has decreased by 10%.”
…
“You have been struck by Purple Thunder of the Nine Heavens.”
“Your health has decreased by 10%.”
…
Nine data streams flashed in rapid succession; Fang Shi endured all nine lightning strikes.
His entire Immortal Body turned charred black, withered and lifeless, dim and dull.
Had it not been for the True Immortal’s blessing protecting him, Fang Shi’s soul would have shattered the moment he heard the thunder.
He would have been instantly obliterated.
This was no natural lightning, no Faraday cage could shield against it.
This was the punishment of heaven and earth—the Purple Thunder of the Nine Heavens.
Nothing could block it. Nothing could evade it. Even if one traversed the void or jumped between worlds,
the Purple Thunder would pursue until the end of time and space, only vanishing once it struck its target.
“Master, I feel I can’t hold on much longer.”
Fang Shi’s voice was frantic; the thunderstorm had not ended after nine strikes.
Instead, it still churned in the sky, as if an even stronger attack was brewing.
“Fang Shi, it’s your own fault for wasting so much time earlier. The power I lent you is limited.”
“It is not infinite. Had your Immortal Body retained full strength, it wouldn’t have been so badly damaged by a single strike.”
True Person Long Yu’s tone was irritated—he had finally encountered an outsider who might break the fate of the Heart Demon Realm.
Was it all to be ruined over a minor mistake?
“Master, could you lend me a bit more power?”
“I feel I’m just a hair’s breadth away from destroying the Heart Demon.”
Fang Shi declared firmly.
With each strike, the earth had sunk a kilometer.
The surrounding environment resembled a boiling cauldron, thick with crimson magma.
“Sigh! It’s not that I won’t lend you more power—it’s that I have no more to give.”
“If only you hadn’t wasted your energy.”
True Person Long Yu sighed, his voice heavy with frustration.
Fang Shi didn’t care: “Master, I’ve realized something—if I have the Immortal Body’s power, why bother killing the Heart Demon?”
“I could simply use this Immortal power to cross the void, and find any world I like.”
True Person Long Yu was stunned: “Are you mad? The Chaos Sea is boundless—how far could you get with this little Immortal power?”
“Don’t you want to return to your original world?”

【From the End of the World, I Alone Severed Ten Thousand Ages】【】
Fang Shi laughed: “Only a fool would want to return to his original world.”
“Master, didn’t you notice my world is being invaded?”
“Why would I go to such a dangerous place?”
“The multiverse is vast—where isn’t home? Even your own true body has left.”
“So why shouldn’t I leave too?”
True Person Long Yu was furious: “I misjudged you completely. I thought you were someone who cared for all under heaven, like me.”
“Yet you’re so selfish—do you deserve the power I lent you?”
“Do you think I won’t take it back right now?”
Fang Shi shrugged: “Master, take it back then. Wait patiently for the next outsider to come.”
“Without more power, I’m dead anyway—the outcome is the same.”
“If you won’t lend me more, and won’t take it back, I’m leaving immediately.”
“I’ve observed the void—this remaining power is more than enough to reach the next world.”
True Person Long Yu was beside himself: “You’re insane! You’re truly insane!”
“You’re so close—how can you throw away everything now?”
“Fine! I’ll give you a little more power.”
As he spoke, a surge of power flowed into the Immortal Body.
Endless radiance began to glow upon it.
“You have received the True Immortal’s Blessing.”
“True Immortal’s Blessing: +40 bonus to all Intelligence, Perception, and Charisma-related identifications. Your body will suffer no damage until the True Immortal’s Blessing fades.”
“Treasure the power within you. Do not waste even a single unit of energy.”
“I have no more power to lend you.”
True Person Long Yu’s voice, weak and trembling, carried urgency and pleading.
“Good! Good! Good!”
Fang Shi’s eyes blazed with light—light of wisdom, light of spirit.
A feeling of mastery over all things spread through his heart.
Fang Shi looked up—every cloud, every thunderstorm, was crystal clear.
Even the residual power lingering deep in the pit below was laid bare before him.
Simultaneously, boundless spiritual energy from heaven and earth surged toward the Immortal Body.
The withered Immortal Body began to heal rapidly.
Fang Shi even sensed a tremendous energy stirring within him.
A single thread of it could cleave rivers and crush mountains.
Magic power was but a mere ant before it.
Immortal Spiritual Energy!
The energy possessed by Immortals.
This was the Immortal’s wisdom! The Immortal’s perception! The Immortal’s charisma!
If before, controlling the Immortal Body was like running Windows 98 on a modern computer—
unable to fully unleash its potential—
now, with wisdom, perception, and charisma,
it was as if he had installed the latest operating system, and could finally unleash the Immortal Body’s full power.
Perhaps this power infusion completed what was missing.
The duration of the Immortal Body did not increase.
But it was enough.
“Master, rest assured—I will destroy the Heart Demon now!”
Threads of Immortal Spiritual Energy burned within the Immortal Body.
A power far stronger than before, by countless times, erupted forth.

Fang Shi slammed downward toward the weakening force deep beneath the earth.
The Immortal Body had five breaths remaining.
