“Are you sure?”
Jiuying Demon God’s eyes narrowed slightly, and endless chilling radiance burst from between his eyelids as he stared fixedly at the Golden Lion Demon below.
Strands of black ghostly aura coiled around his body. Behind him, seven infant-head phantoms appeared and disappeared indistinctly. Every infant head had a ferocious, twisted expression, appearing utterly evil.
“This lowly one... How would this lowly one dare deceive... deceive Lord Jiuying?”
Under Jiuying Demon God’s fixed stare, the Golden Lion Demon, possessing only golden immortal cultivation, was so frightened that his divine soul nearly left his body. Trembling, he said, “This lowly one truly discovered the child you spoke of at Eagle-Dove Mountain!”
“Good, very good!”
After confirming the news, Jiuying Demon God’s ferocious and repulsive face revealed excitement and exhilaration. “Heh heh heh, child, I’ve finally found your whereabouts!”
“Buzz!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiuying Demon God moved and transformed into a streak of light, carrying heaven-shaking killing intent as he shot straight toward the Primordial World.
…
At the same time, atop Eagle-Dove Mountain.
Fang Yang had no idea that Jiuying Demon God was rushing over with murderous intent. His divine mind remained immersed in his mind.
First, he checked his System Status Panel.
Host: Fang Yang
Cultivation: early-stage daluo golden immortal（0/500000）
Bloodline: Purple Bamboo（Scarlet Bamboo, blue bamboo, Purple Bamboo, golden bamboo, five-colored bamboo, Chaos Bamboo, Hongmeng Bamboo）
Heavenly materials and earthly treasures: supreme-grade innate spiritual treasure Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, mid-grade innate spiritual treasure Sea-Calming Divine Pearl, High-Grade Acquired Supreme Treasure Five-Light Box, High-Grade Acquired Supreme Treasure Eight-Treasure Glazed Vase
Divine ability secret art: 《Hongmeng Art》（automatic cultivation, dharma power one hundred times denser than that of living beings in the same cultivation realm）《Heaven and Earth Furnace》（automatic cultivation）
System talents: 《divine might》《Dharma Treasure Furnace》《dao heart》
Breakthrough points: 20000
Heavenly dao fragments: x3
Storage space: Biluo Purple Fruit x3
Those were Fang Yang’s current Status Panel attributes. First, after his cultivation had reached the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm, the breakthrough points required for advancement had risen to five hundred thousand.
For Fang Yang, this was naturally good news.
Because this meant he could advance more slowly!
In addition, he had obtained a divine ability secret art—《Heaven and Earth Furnace》—and a system talent—《dao heart》.
《Heaven and Earth Furnace》: A Dao-grade body-tempering technique with seven layers. Upon reaching the third layer, one attains sainthood through the physical body and severs the River of Time.
Note: From now on, fifty percent of the breakthrough points obtained by the host will be extracted to cultivate 《Heaven and Earth Furnace》!
“Hahaha~!”
After reading the introduction to 《Heaven and Earth Furnace》, Fang Yang was already wild with joy.
Putting aside the fact that this technique would make his physical body extraordinarily powerful and greatly enhance his Battle strength,
more importantly, fifty percent of the breakthrough points he obtained in the future would be consumed.
Wouldn’t this make his advancement in cultivation realm extremely slow?
For Fang Yang, this was absolutely a tremendous surprise!
“The System is finally becoming somewhat reliable!” Fang Yang thought to himself.
Afterward, he began examining the final System-rewarded talent divine ability.
《Dao heart》: Dao is heaven and earth; dao heart is nature itself. Those who cultivate this talent can comprehend the Three Thousand laws, three thousand orders, and three thousand origins, reaching the ultimate realm of Dao!
After reading the introduction to 《dao heart》, Fang Yang finally understood.
No wonder he had been able to comprehend the power of the three thousand laws after breaking through to the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm. It turned out that he had activated the system talent—《dao heart》.
With the power of the three thousand laws, along with the hundredfold dharma power amplification provided by cultivating 《Hongmeng Art》,
although Fang Yang currently possessed only early-stage daluo golden immortal cultivation, he was fully confident that he could contend with cultivators in the late daluo golden immortal stage and even defeat them in battle.
His Battle strength had undergone a complete, earth-shaking enhancement!
One had to understand that although Fang Yang had been able to defeat late-taiyi golden immortal cultivators when he was at the mid-stage taiyi golden immortal Realm, Daluo golden immortals were different. They were peerless powerhouses who had condensed the Three Flowers and comprehended the laws.
With every minor cultivation realm crossed, Battle strength differed by tens of millions of times. There was practically no such thing as challenging someone across a major level.
Yet even so, he was still confident he could defeat Late-stage Daluo golden immortal cultivators. This showed just how great the enhancement to Fang Yang’s Battle strength from 《Hongmeng Art》 and 《dao heart》 was.
“Right, there are also the changes to my body!”
Thinking this, Fang Yang quickly directed his divine sense toward the bones in his left hand.
He saw that black patterns had actually appeared on the bones of his left hand.
These patterns crisscrossed one another like chains, connecting all the sinews in Fang Yang’s left hand.
Every pattern radiated an ancient existence and primeval aura.
They looked extremely strange and sinister!
Fang Yang had no idea what these dao patterns were, nor had he received any explanation from the System.
However, he vaguely felt that these dao patterns were by no means simple and might even possess tremendous uses.
Thus, Fang Yang finally finished checking both the System Status Panel and the changes within himself.
In summary!
His breakthrough to the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm this time had both advantages and disadvantages.
The disadvantage was naturally his rapid advancement in cultivation realm, which left Fang Yang somewhat depressed, because he had moved another step closer to the Hunyuan Supreme Realm.
The advantage was that the breakthrough points required for future advancement had increased, slowing his rate of advancement.
He had also activated 《Heaven and Earth Furnace》 and 《dao heart》!
Afterward, Fang Yang finally opened his deep-set eyes.
The instant he opened his eyes, Fang Yang was surprised to discover that Lady Nuwa was quietly watching him, a breathtaking smile hanging from the corners of her lips.
“Whoosh!”
Seeing Fang Yang suddenly open his eyes, Lady Nuwa looked like a young girl caught doing something wrong. Her pretty face instantly flushed bright red, and her gaze drifted elsewhere.
“Lady Nuwa, why were you secretly watching me?” Fang Yang’s lips curved upward slightly as he teased her.
“I…!”
Caught out by Fang Yang, Lady Nuwa was left speechless.
However, she quickly noticed the teasing curve at the corner of Fang Yang’s lips. Her delicate brows immediately lifted, and she said domineeringly, “I was clearly watching you openly! Why would I need to do it secretly?”
“I’m watching! I’ll keep watching!”
As she spoke, her bright beautiful eyes blinked repeatedly while she stared intently at Fang Yang.
Fang Yang: “……”
He had not expected Lady Nuwa to say something so domineering.
“Fine, go ahead and watch. It’s not like I’ll lose a layer of skin!” Fang Yang spread his hands and said indifferently.
“Forget it, I’m not watching anymore!”
When she truly met Fang Yang’s eyes, Lady Nuwa ultimately still shuddered, her delicate body becoming slightly unnatural.
“Huh?!”
Just then, Lady Nuwa seemed to sense something. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly as she suspiciously looked in another direction.
