Chapter 184: Perfect Kunpeng Art
As Fang Han's voice rang out, everyone in the Feather Transformation Immortal School was stunned.
"What? The Ghost Emperor was actually killed by him? That was a peerless expert at the Divine Ability Tenth Realm, Heaven-Defying Fate Changing level!"
"The Immortal Executioner Thief and the Star Destroyer Thief were both killed by him?"
"No wonder he wanted to challenge Hua Tian Du within ten years. It's been less than a year, and he's already this powerful. In ten years, he really might be able to kill Hua Tian Du."
"Although Hua Tian Du is stronger than the Ghost Emperor, he's only marginally stronger. Hua Tian Du could defeat the Ghost Emperor, but he couldn't kill an expert of the Ghost Emperor's level."
"It's a good thing Hua Tian Du has gone to the Grand Unity School. Otherwise, if he were here, there would be another fierce dragon-tiger battle between the two of them!"
Countless discussions broke out. This fact was simply too astonishing, leaving people unable to react. In just over a year, Fang Han had suddenly grown to this extent. It was truly inconceivable.
Listening to the surprised discussions of the crowd, a slight smile played on Fang Han's lips. He deliberately created such a grand display to awe the school. Firstly, it was to strike a blow against Meng Shaobai and Hua Tian Du's aura, establishing his own prestige. Secondly, it was to make everyone in the Feather Transformation School understand his value and increase his standing.
He pointed a finger and called out, "Azure Emperor Wood Emperor, Hua Yu Wan Wu..." The Natal Talisman above his head shot out a stream of green thunderclouds, enveloping the entire Reincarnation Peak. After a clap of thunder, the thunderclouds began to pour down a green rain.
These raindrops irrigated the many medicine fields on Reincarnation Peak. Ginseng, spiritual ganoderma, snow Ren-chon, and various other young plants instantly exuded a vital essence after being watered.
Each ginseng grew as thick as an arm, breathing in the soil like a small child. Wisps of white Qi seeped out from the ginseng, transforming into a white infant that ran around the main body.
"It's become a spirit! That ginseng has become a spirit!" Countless disciples were shocked.
"Is the Azure Emperor Wood Emperor Art that powerful? It can make a ginseng that's less than three years old become a spirit in such a short time?" countless people asked in astonishment.
After these ginseng and spiritual ganoderma become spirits, they condense their medicinal Qi into an illusory form. The older they are, the more stable the condensed form of medicinal Qi becomes. If they survive a lightning strike, their illusory form will turn substantial, and then the spirit medicine will become a spirit.
However, such spiritual trees and plants that become spirits are rare. Most are taken for alchemy. Under normal circumstances, ginseng and spiritual ganoderma need thousands of years to become spirits. But now, these plants, only two or three years old, directly became spirits after being stimulated by the Azure Emperor Wood Emperor Art. This was too terrifying.
On Hua Tian Du's mountain peak, his medicine fields, cultivated for nearly a thousand years, had fewer spirit medicines that had become spirits than Fang Han's fields. One by one, the spirit medicines were stimulated, and their medicinal Qi condensed and transformed.
For a time, the entire Reincarnation Peak was filled with medicinal Qi. Originally, the spiritual Qi of Reincarnation Peak was very scarce, but after Fang Han's actions, it suddenly became a blessed land.
"Turning hands into clouds, overturning hands into rain," Fang Han instantly transformed Reincarnation Peak into a blessed land. This was the terrifying aspect of the Azure Emperor Wood Emperor Art. The most powerful aspect of this cultivation technique was not its offensive or defensive power, but its ability to rejuvenate life.
Most people in the group, like Shi Jian, used it as a healing cultivation technique. In reality, the correct use of this technique was to enlighten plants, create blessed lands, enhance one's physique, and perform alchemy.
Cultivation emphasizes wealth, companions, cultivation technique, and destiny. This Azure Emperor Wood Emperor Art was the "wealth." With such a method, anyone who embarks on the path of cultivation will not lack resources. This was simply a Divine Rank cultivation technique for farming novels. It was just that the people in the group increased their strength too quickly, almost changing every day. Therefore, the "management" effect of the Azure Emperor Wood Emperor Art was not obvious. With such rapid strength improvement, who needs a farming style?
At this moment, everyone in the Feather Transformation School looked at Fang Han with fanaticism. His combat power was terrifying enough, and he was also a good hand at logistics. Martially, he could kill the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth in adversity. Culturally, he could enlighten plants and cultivate Divine Pills and spirit medicines. Fang Han had simply monopolized all the virtues in the world. People were both jealous and envious. Some even considered pledging allegiance to him.
Just then, an arrogant voice rang out: "Hahahahahahaha! Fang Han, don't be so smug! I have already cultivated the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols and advanced to the Divine Ability Ninth Realm!"
"Let me see if your Natal Talisman, formed from nearly a hundred Divine Abilities, is truly as vulnerable as it seems." Terrifying Sword Qi soared into the sky, full of Killing Intent, as a voice echoed from Meng Shaobai's mountain peak.
"What? Meng Shaobai has already cultivated to the Divine Ability Ninth Realm, Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols?" "The Divine Ability Ninth Realm is a qualitative leap! Even if one's physical body is slain, they can still undergo Possession and Rebirth!" "How did Meng Shaobai achieve the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols so quickly?"
"Is he challenging Fang Han? Even the Ghost Emperor was slain by Fang Han. It's impossible for Meng Shaobai to be Fang Han's opponent, even if he has the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols!" "That's not necessarily true. Didn't you see the aura Meng Shaobai has been emanating these past two days? His Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols are absolutely astonishing."
A flurry of discussions erupted, and everyone's faces showed intense interest. One was Meng Shaobai, a Sword Dao expert who had cultivated the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols. The other was Fang Han, a rising star who had achieved an unprecedented feat, breaking through to the Unity Realm with hundreds of Divine Abilities. A conflict had arisen between these two, and a dragon-tiger battle was about to unfold.
"It seems that after you cultivated the Demonic Embryo Parasitism Art, possessed the Kunpeng, and became a half-human, half-demon monster, your mindset has inflated? Have you forgotten the last time I beat you like a dog?" Upon hearing Meng Shaobai's words, Fang Han let out a mocking laugh.
Many disciples were shocked upon hearing his words. "What? Meng Shaobai had already lost to Fang Han before? And was beaten like a dog?" "I did hear that they had some conflict during an auction." "Fang Han was only in the Heavenly Human Realm before, right? But Meng Shaobai was a Golden Core cultivator..." Everyone hadn't expected that a battle had already occurred between these two great prodigies, and Fang Han had even won.
"Hmph!" Meng Shaobai didn't get angry. His Sword Qi suddenly retracted. "Empty talk is useless. Let's see the real outcome in a fight!" He spoke with burning eyes, and a strong Battle Intent rose from his body. A surge of power emanated, and the earth seemed to tremble.
"Such powerful Divine Power..." The surrounding onlookers were horrified. They seemed to see a human-like, demon-like, devil-like, and immortal-like aura behind Meng Shaobai, soaring straight into the sky like a heavenly pillar.
"Is this the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols cultivated by Meng Shaobai? What a terrifying aura, truly frightening..." "This Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols is extraordinary. No wonder he dares to challenge Fang Han's Natal Talisman, which is composed of nearly a hundred Divine Abilities!" "This is the aura of the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols, not inferior to Hua Tian Du in the slightest..."
Feeling Meng Shaobai's terrifying aura, all the elders and disciples gasped in surprise. This aura soared thousands of feet into the sky, making them breathless. Just by feeling the aura, they knew that Meng Shaobai had cultivated an extraordinary Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols.
"Cloud water surges three thousand feet, swallowing the sun and moon within the belly, soaring through the stars, I am the emperor of all heavens and myriad realms!" The aura behind Meng Shaobai completely transformed into the appearance of a young man—himself. This was the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols.
The Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols was extremely tall, standing on a patch of water clouds, with six pure white wings extending from its back. The wings seemed to be condensed from Origin Qi, and Talismanic Incantations flowed on them. Each time the wings flapped, the wind from all directions gathered from the Void Realm. These winds seemed to have gained sentience, flying like spirits, circling around Meng Shaobai, who now had wings.
At this moment, Meng Shaobai was like the Dominator of Wind, the Emperor of Wind. Some disciples even found themselves unable to fly. The airflow in the sky no longer obeyed them. Even by circulating their Divine Power, they couldn't control the airflow.
"This is the Kunpeng Primordial Spirit... It's not bad!" Fang Han deliberately spared Meng Shaobai's life precisely to witness the Divine Power of this Demonic Embryo Parasitism Art. Meng Shaobai used the art to parasitize the Kunpeng, combining with its life characteristics, and cultivated the Kunpeng Primordial Spirit. He gained the ability to control the corresponding heavenly and earthly airflow and manipulate wind.
Extreme speed combined with "wind control" was indeed extraordinary. "It looks quite impressive. Let me see if you're just a pretty face..." Fang Han flicked his finger, and a thousand bright moons rose above the mountain peak. These bright moons split the heavens and earth, transforming into countless Sword Qi that soared into the sky and rained down.
The Sword Qi illuminated the entire world with brilliant and sacred light. Wherever the moonlight fell, there was an endless supply of it. "How dare you!" Seeing this, Meng Shaobai's Dharma Idol wings on his back flapped faster. A wailing sound, like ghosts crying and gods howling, echoed.
Innumerable winds condensed into wind devils and charged towards Fang Han. These wind devils stirred up rivers and seas, uprooting trees wherever they passed, and causing sand and stones to spin, striking sparks. The two clashed, and both the hurricane and the bright moons subsided.
"Since you've cultivated the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols, let's go to the Heaven Punishment Platform for a battle. We'll decide who is stronger today!" Fang Han's body soared into the air.
Meng Shaobai followed closely. "I've been eager for this. My Lifeless Sword needs to be consecrated with some blood!" "Since you, Fang Han, are so eager to die, I shall grant your wish!" The two of them fought their way to the Heaven Punishment Platform.
Both were powerful and arrogant individuals. It was destined that a battle between them would decide who was worthy to contend with Hua Tian Du for the position of Sect Leader. Becoming the Sect Leader of the Feather Transformation School, holding great power, ruling over secular empires, and commanding millions of cultivators was the goal of a supreme Immortal Dao figure.
This kind of power was unparalleled. Countless people quickly followed to the Heaven Punishment Platform. This was a dragon-tiger battle, and no one wanted to miss it. Even an ancient giant like Elder Tian Stelle couldn't help but watch from within the Heaven Punishment Palace.
Meng Shaobai stood in the Void Realm, with vast demonic power circulating within his body. Each time he circulated the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, there was a sense of collapse within it. This was a manifestation of extremely profound power, capable of instantly draining the Qi of heaven and earth.
Controlling space with every gesture, he gained an infinite advantage. A casual movement could manipulate airflow, causing one's posture to be greatly disrupted. This power of inhaling and exhaling Origin Qi, causing spatial collapse, was a life characteristic obtained after the Demonic Embryo Parasitism Art refined the Ancient Kunpeng.
Fang Han made the first move. The Demonic Blade Blood Firmament appeared in his hand, instantly slashing out tens of thousands of blood-red rays. The Demonic Blade Blood Firmament, a Dao Artifact-level existence, had an Artifact Spirit, King of Blood Night, residing within it.
The Artifact Refining art in the Eternal Life world was the most terrifying, especially with a Dao Artifact. The Artifact Spirit within a Dao Artifact could cultivate. The King of Blood Night Artifact Spirit cultivated terrifying blade techniques, and this move was precisely the Thousand Demon Slash. It cut through the airflow, disrupting the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi. This was specifically aimed at Meng Shaobai's method of controlling airflow.
"Too slow, too slow! My speed is beyond your imagination. One move will defeat you!" Six illusory wings appeared behind Meng Shaobai. The moment the Demonic Blade Blood Firmament was about to strike him, his wings moved. His entire being merged into the wind. Every blade of grass and every movement in the world seemed to become slow.
Almost at the same time he spoke, a precious sword appeared in the wind next to Fang Han. It was unimaginably fast. This was the Kunpeng's most powerful life characteristic: Divine Speed! This sword seemed incredibly fast, unstoppable by anyone. It instantly pierced into Fang Han's head.
Fang Han's entire head turned into dust, his entire being transforming into pure Origin Qi. This was merely an illusion! "Kunpeng, coincidentally, I also have Divine Abilities in that area..." Fang Han's voice appeared in the Void Realm. "Let me see if your Ancient Kunpeng is stronger, or if my Kunpeng Art is stronger..."
Behind him, similar illusory wings also appeared. This was the Kunpeng Art, the embodiment of extreme speed.
"What???" Meng Shaobai was greatly alarmed, and his figure became visible. He had cultivated the Heavenly and Earthly Dharma Idols, and with a pair of Kunpeng wings, his speed was extremely fast, allowing him to control wind and airflow. He commanded the ultimate speed in the world.
Terrifyingly fast speed combined with the Lifeless Sword Art, bursting forth in an instant, was even more formidable than the Instant Kill Divine Art. Killing was a single move! Yet, his almost certain kill move was actually dodged by Fang Han. Was Fang Han's suddenly unleashed speed actually so terrifying?
Meng Shaobai had originally thought that with his terrifying speed, he could launch shadow-like assassinations. He believed that even if Fang Han had countless abilities, he couldn't escape the pursuit of thousands of swords in the blink of an eye. Who knew, Fang Han's speed was also terrifying.
Meng Shaobai only felt a sharp edge shooting towards his glabella. Endless starlight enveloped his body. A Heart-Piercing Arrow approached his glabella. The Moon-Slaying Bow and the Heart-Piercing Arrow were Fang Han's two Peerless Grade Treasure Artifacts with extremely strong offensive power.
Fang Han believed in making the best use of everything. If one didn't use weapons, humans were no different from animals. So his approach was very wild. He used whatever he had. Nothing was left unused. Fang Han's attacks were rather insidious. Meng Shaobai was startled by the speed he displayed, and his rhythm was disrupted. He revealed a flaw.
Fang Han immediately used his Treasure Artifact to unleash Killing Intent. The Heart-Piercing Arrow shot out, and his entire being followed closely behind. The Heaven-Shrouding Demonic Hand instantly grabbed out. Insidious in attack, ruthless in execution... In just this one move, even an evenly matched expert would fall into a certain death situation.
