Chapter 1094 - Invasion

Chapter 1094: Invasion

“Are you... really a new disciple?” Senior Brother Xiao looked at Fang Yuan. “Overnight, you completed the second transference of the Nine Transference Undying Method?”

“My body was originally comparable to a dao artifact. What’s wrong with converting my technique in one night with the help of three Golden Soul Fruits?”

Fang Yuan stepped forward and kneaded his knuckles, making continuous thunderous sounds.

He had long expected something like this to happen. However, he could prove his innocence with his foundation and especially with the old man in Cultivation Techniques Hall yesterday testifying for him.

Moreover, at this level, he was just a more talented body-refining cultivator.

Even Grand Unity Immortals would be alarmed if he managed to cultivate the second transference from a total novice within one night.

Even so, Fang Yuan was considered more prominent among the outer disciples because of his top-grade dao artifact body. Although it was difficult to cultivate the Nine Transference Undying Method, he would undoubtedly be one of the stronger ones among those at the same level after he mastered it.

These disciples that were planning on picking on the weak were at a loss.

“Don’t worry... We have greater numbers...” Before Junior Brother Chu could finish, a figure flashed before him. Fang Yuan grabbed him as though he were a little chicken. “What did you say?”

“No-nothing!” Even though he cultivated the Mixed Element Technique, Junior Brother Chu only felt severe pain in his neck as he begged for mercy continuously.

“Hmm... All right. I want you to do something. We’ll write off today once you’re finished. Otherwise...” Fang Yuan’s eyes had a cold glint.

“What is it?” Senior Brother Xiao asked solemnly.

The disciples that were originally surrounding them dispersed in silence, having decided that Fang Yuan was not someone to trifle with.

“Don’t worry. It’s very simple!” Fang Yuan flashed a bright smile.

...

After some questioning, he found out that the leader of this group was Xiao Jiuli. He led a small group among the outer disciples and could only bully newcomers.

That Junior Brother Chu, named Chu Duo, had the role of a good-for-nothing advisor.

“Is it worth it to play politics to such an extent in the outer sect?” Fang Yuan was left dumbfounded. “Right, how do I enter the Golden Soul Realm?!”

“The Golden Soul Realm is a cultivation treasure land and also where the trial for inner and core disciples is. You can enter after paying one hundred contribution points!” Xiao Jiuli explained in detail. “As for the contribution points, other than the hundred you have in your token when you first join, you have to obtain them through various missions or exchanges.”

“No wonder you came to me for the contribution points.”

Fang Yuan rubbed his chin while Xiao Jiuli and Chu Duo smiled embarrassedly. “Big Brother Li Hun, you are so talented to have completed the second transference of the Nine Transference Undying Method so quickly. You can definitely become an inner disciple within a short time!”

This was why Xiao Jiuli became obedient and truthful. They were not on the same level.

“Inner disciple?”

Fang Yuan was very clear that every outer disciple had a body comparable to a dao artifact.

To become an inner disciple, you had to survive in the second region for a certain amount of time. Their bodies were comparable to a top-grade dao artifact.

If he could refine his body to the immortal artifact level before the lightning tribulation, he could go to the third region and become a core disciple.

Previously, Tie Kuangtu had made it so that the risk of Fang Yuan’s evaluation was akin to that of becoming an inner disciple.

Therefore, Jin Huan’s attitude had changed immediately upon seeing him emerge unscathed.

Since he was so outstanding this early on, it was entirely possible for him to become a core disciple in the future.

But I’m not here to become a core disciple... The reasonable thing to do would be to get the technique as soon as possible and leave. Of course, I have to grab as many Golden Soul Fruits as I can before that! Fang Yuan decided secretly. Perhaps... I can put on a spectacular performance? But won’t it be too suspicious on the second day I’m here?

“Hmm, in view of your cooperation today, I’ll let things go!” Fang Yuan waved his hand dismissively. Xiao Jiuli and Chu Duo immediately showed expressions of surprise.

In fact, these outer disciples were the most inferior among all in the Golden Soul Sect.

If they had some background or slightly better talent, they would have become inner disciples earlier.

Seeing how great he was, they even had some thoughts of having Fang Yuan as their boss.

Unfortunately, Fang Yuan did not give them the chance to do so. He shooed them away as though they were flies.

He changed his plan and returned to the small courtyard. He sat cross-legged with a grave expression. “The Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect has finally arrived.”

...

Thirty-Three-Level Outer Heaven Tower, Sixteen Countries.

Fang Yuan’s Torch Dragon clone awakened from comprehending nomological laws, and his eyes focused. “Here comes the first wave!”

Before, Immortal Tai Xuan could not do anything to him and did not dare to take risks himself. He could only form an array to lock down the entire void and mobilize personnel from the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect.

Based on his speculation, it was impossible for another Grand Unity Immortal to come. It was most likely a team of Immortals with some treasures.

Of course, the Immortals of cultivation Holy Lands were much stronger than Immortals elsewhere. This reinforcement team would have no problem destroying all the sects of the Sixteen Countries.

“Greetings to Elder Tai Xuan!”

Twelve streams of light flew down, transformed into Immortals, and paid their respects to Immortal Tai Xuan.

“Hmm! It’s fine!” Elder Tai Xuan waved his hand and fixed his gaze on the leader. “So it’s little fellow Hui Ye. Did you bring them?”

“According to Elder’s instructions, I’ve brought with me thirteen Realm Breaking Beads, a set of the Twelve Heavenly Scorching Array, and the ‘Nine Void Banner’!” Immortal Hui Ye bowed respectfully and took out the items.

Realm Breaking Beads were one-time-use items for breaking through space barriers without any disadvantages.

The Twelve Heavenly Scorching Array required twelve Immortals to work together. The power was immense and enough to lock down the void. Even someone at perfection in the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws would find it hard to resist it.

These items were created by the greatest genius disciple in the history of the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect.

This disciple had originally comprehended six sets of nomological laws to perfection and had a body comparable to an immortal artifact. However, he was unsatisfied and tried to comprehend more paths when he was at Nascent Soul. Finally, he reached basic mastery in the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws before eventually cultivating them to perfection. He was ranked as the top person beneath Immortal.

Unfortunately, he had not survived the lightning tribulation.

The Nine Void Banner was a top-grade immortal artifact. A Grand Supreme Immortal had refined it personally and had even infused the soul of a Demon Immortal who cultivated the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws into it!

This treasure’s value was not the slightly best under that of some primordial treasures.

“Very good!” Immortal Tai Xuan stroked his beard. “Leave six people here to form the Twelve Heavenly Scorching Array with these Immortals. The rest of you prepare to charge into the Outer Heaven Tower with me!”

“We obey your command!” Immortal Hui Ye bowed, but the other Immortals groaned in secret.

After working so hard and so long, they had not even been allowed to leave when their sects were trashed. But unexpectedly, their suffering had yet to end.

It did not take long before twelve black Qi rose into the air and enveloped the reeds in its entirety.

Occasionally, a Godfiend with the head of a human and the body of a bird emerged in the void. It had four wings and six eyes. Fierce and mighty. Most importantly, it could travel through the void at will, seeming as though it had comprehended the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws.

“Haha... With this array, that kid will be courting death if he dares to come here again!” Elder Tai Xuan laughed heartily, and with six Immortals, they activated the Realm Breaking Beads. “Open!!!”

...

“Has it started?” Fang Yuan stood in front of the stone stele, his voice calm. “Artifact spirit! Open the thirty-first level and send them straight in!”

The Realm Breaking Beads were indeed powerful. In theory, they could pass through the first nineteen floors at will.

However, Fang Yuan obviously would not let them go through his fortress level by level. He was going to give them hell from the beginning.

The space after the twentieth level might be very difficult to open up with dead objects, but he initiated the opening himself. Even the Realm Breaking Beads would naturally search for the weakest point in the area, similar to a leaking pond automatically absorbing the surrounding water.

Light flashed.

Elder Tai Xuan brought Hui Ye’s group of six immortals and rushed into the space.

The ground was dry and cracked. Lava surged all around, and toxic smoke filled the air, not looking like a good place at all.

“This place... should be the trial ground for Immortals!”

Immortal Hui Ye sized up his surroundings. “We have six people and Elder Tai Xuan. What is a mere test for Immortals?”

They were all prideful Immortals of the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect.

In their opinion, the evaluation for Immortals of Mount Mengyan should be similar to that of the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect. It would be extremely difficult for ordinary Immortals, but it would be easy for them, especially since they were cheating.

However, Immortal Hui Ye’s expression froze the very next moment.

Because Elder Tai Xuan remained silent as he gazed at the surroundings, with a little... fear?

“Im-impossible. How can there be an otherworldly demon here?”

As they neared him, they could hear him muttering to himself.

“An evaluation with a chained otherworldly demon. We have something similar in our Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect. It seems like we’re at the last level...” Immortal Hui Ye naturally felt the Demonic Qi of Heaven and Earth, but he did not take it seriously.

The next moment... Rumble!

The sky cracked, a volcano erupted, and dark Qi burst into the sky.

The biggest volcano suddenly disintegrated, shocking the Immortals, and an enormous Godfiend emerged!

It had a human torso, twelve eerily bluish horns, and a layer of ice armor.

Numerous thick chains were drilled directly in its body, holding it firmly to the ground.

But at this moment, it seemed to receive some form of stimulation as its eyes suddenly sprang open.

Whoosh whoosh!

Cold winds howled, and snowflakes swept across.

The volcano instantly froze, and the world transformed into one of ice and snow.

Roar Roar!

The Ice Godfiend focused its eyes at Tai Xuan and roared.

The sound waves caused even the Immortals to lose their bearing.

“Primordial... Godfiend?” Immortal Hui Ye only felt bitterness in his mouth. “Why is there such a demon here?”
