Chapter 573: Chapter 571 Important Matters (Additional updates request for subscription!)_1

Starlight mingled with thunder light overflowed.

If it weren’t for Jade Island being tightly protected by layers of black fog, it would have likely been destroyed by the aftershock long ago!

The purple-gold thunder had mostly dissipated, leaving only a strand of purple lightning that fell upon the "Three Holy Beast Armor," which Fang Xi easily absorbed.

"Eh?"

Inside the sea of Qi Dantian, the main Nascent Soul opened its eyes, and suddenly, with a small mouth opening, it swallowed a wisp of purple-gold breath into its stomach.

"Although this purple-gold thunder is terrifying, there are quite a few benefits to enduring it," Fang Xi murmured to himself, his Divine Consciousness quickly connected to the "Taiyi Sutra": ’Check the status of the Star Tower, and start the repair immediately!’

High in the sky, a crack appeared on the surface of the Star Tower.

But countless nanobots immediately spread over it and began to repair it urgently.

At this moment, the ninth Heaven Thunder came crashing down!

The world suddenly darkened, and it seemed to all that the only thing was that streak of purple-gold lightning!

Fang Xi’s expression was extremely grave as the slightly shrunk "Heaven Star Array" converged with the "Yin Yang Nine Nether Mysterious Wood Array," the two formations becoming one to meet the Heavenly Thunder in the air!

The phantoms of the Heavenly Phoenix, the Crocodile, and the Profound Turtle appeared, hovering above the array and weakening the power of the heavenly tribulation layer by layer!

After a loud noise, both formations exploded with a bang.

Upon the Ancestral Demon Tree, leaves green with hints of gold and silver fell, turning to ash in midair...

The thunderclouds dispersed, and the weather was clear and sunny.

"Finally, I have become a Transcendent God..."

Fang Xi lay in a huge crater with his Three Holy Beast Armor shattered, but a smile appeared on his face.

From now on, he was invincible in the Mortal Realm!

Of course, the Demon Realm and the Monster World didn’t count...

With a thought, streaks of Wood Spiritual Power gathered from heaven and earth, turning into a nourishing rain.

The greenery in the crater grew wildly, quickly healing the wound of the earth.

Clad in a robe made purely of Wood Spiritual Power, Fang Xi stood up and remembered the ferocity of the ninth heavenly thunder, his expression turning solemn.

That ninth bolt of lightning was aimed at total annihilation, body and soul.

Even though the combined force of two fifth-level arrays and the Thousands Demon Armor Secret Skills weakened the power of the heavenly tribulation, it nearly crippled him!

Luckily, in the last moment, the one-third transformed "Eternal Green Body" seemed to take effect, bursting with an indescribable force of vitality.

And the Ancestral Demon Tree also lost most of its leaves, which were actually its secret substitution method for the tribulation...

The Demon Tree had already been refined by Fang Xi with the "Longevity Skills," and it was part of him; now, having spent a large amount of Primordial Energy, it had finally neutralized the remnants of the final wave of the heavenly tribulation...

Fang Xi could now see the dimmed golden patterns of that one-third transformed "Eternal Green Body" when he looked inward.

"Luckily, I can continue to plant and nourish the tree to make up for it..."

He exhaled and saw the three women hovering around him, and he couldn’t help but smile: "What? Don’t you recognize me anymore?"

Zhong Hongyu looked at Fang Xi, who still had a young and handsome face full of vitality, and could not help but smile bitterly: "I truly find it hard to believe... Have you really become a Transcendent God Cultivator?"

"Indeed," Fang Xi replied, unabashed: "From now on, I am supreme in the Mortal Realm!"

After the promotion to a higher realm, the most critical thing was that the "Kuyong Mysterious Light" to Transcendent God ratio became one to one...

Frankly speaking, even if all the human Transcendent God Cultivators were to strike at him together, they would only be courting death!

’Ancestor Huo... wait for me. Right after I become a Transcendent God, I will be needing a fifth-level Spiritual Vein Taoist Palace.’

Fang Xi’s gaze grew profound, as he gestured with his hand: "Now, the blockade over Jade Island can be lifted. I wish to seclude myself for a few years to consolidate my realm, you all may leave now..."

...

After sending the three women away, Fang Xi quietly checked himself: "Divine Consciousness and physical strength have grown... my lifespan has increased by more than one thousand five hundred years... "

Ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators who advance to the Transcendent God Phase usually gain an extra one thousand years of lifespan.

Most human race Transcendent God Cultivators have lifespans of around two thousand years.

Fang Xi originally had an increase of one thousand years, and with the amplification of his Wood physique, it became more than one thousand five hundred years, pushing his lifespan past ten thousand years once again!

’A thousand years for a tortoise, ten thousand years for a turtle...’

He silently mocked himself, then began to familiarize himself with the magic power of the Transcendent God level.

Suddenly, Fang Xi’s expression changed, and with a flick of his finger, a spiritual tree instantly grew to the height of a person.

In the blink of an eye, Wood Spiritual Power from all around was drawn in, investing into the spiritual tree, and in a moment, it transformed into a majestic tree...

He then recited an incantation, and a fist-sized fireball appeared.

As infinite Fire Spiritual Power poured in, the fireball swelled in an instant, turning into a red sun...

"To draw upon the spiritual power of heaven and earth, even a trivial fireball technique can become a terrifying spell that burns mountains and boils seas... Indeed, is this the power of being a Transcendent God?"

Fang Xi continued to draw in the Fire Spiritual Power from heaven and earth, infusing it into the ’sun’ before him.

Suddenly... he furrowed his brows, feeling the backlash from the spiritual power of heaven and earth.

This was because his actions had exceeded a certain limit and his own strength was too formidable... ultimately causing him to lose several months of his lifespan.

"No wonder Transcendent God Cultivators try to avoid taking action as much as possible. It seems the Mortal Realm is too narrow and confined..."

"In the Earth Immortal Realm, there’s certainly no such backlash, and the lifespan of Transcendent God Cultivators there is around four to five thousand years. No wonder so many old Transcendent God monsters want to smuggle into the Earth Immortal Realm..."

Without reaching perfect Transcendent God status, one cannot break through the realm and ascend on their own; they have to ’smuggle’ through the Ascension Platform.

Fang Xi waved his hand, dispersing the enormous fireball, and then he smiled again.

Streams of Earth-moving Divine Light, Gold Divine Light, and Water Traveling Divine Light converged, forming a multicolored sphere of light in front of him.

"Ordinary Immortal Cultivators breaking through the Transcendent God phase can only master the power of Heaven and Earth related to their primary cultivation technique... With the ’Heavenly-Earth Primordial Energy Particle Map’ I control, I can manipulate not only the Five Elements but even more various powers..."

He casually cast out Magic Power, stirring the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Power, transforming them into attributes such as ice, wind, thunder, and more...

"Mastering the power of all elements not only gives me an edge in the battles of Transcendent Gods, but it’s also a greater advantage for later breakthroughs to Returning to Emptiness!"

Now that he had transcended to a god, the next natural step would be Returning to Emptiness!

And the Fang Immortal Taoist Master once said that the key to Returning to Emptiness lay in ’Unity of All Things’, of course, Fang Xi had an even better path of ’Merging of Three Energies’!

"After becoming Transcendent God, the Kuyong Skills become a problem... I don’t possess the Kuyong Skills of the Transcendent God phase..."

Fang Xi frowned as he thought of the ’Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm’ key that the Array Spirit White Deer had given him.

This Spirit Realm was located in Zhong State; it wasn’t going anywhere, and he wasn’t in a hurry to explore it.

Although he wasn’t planning to give up on the Kuyong Skills, Fang Xi wasn’t without ways to progress his cultivation level, after all, he could switch to cultivating the ’Sky Demon Slaying Immortal Tactics’ or the ’Self-Transforming Heavenly Sovereign’s True Demon Art of Controlling All Spirits’ to break through the middle phase of the Transcendent God, then stimulate the ’Kuyong Skills’ for a breakthrough afterwards.

However, with such a transformation, he would truly just have the realm without the genuine power, and he would lose many of the divine abilities and secret skills that can only be mastered at higher realms, as recorded in ’Kuyong Skills’.

"Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm... Perhaps I’ll wait until I’ve reached perfection in the Transcendent God phase before I go."

Fang Xi decided to play it safe for now, not planning to deal with the ninety-nine Green Vine Gourds under Jade Island just yet, and instead focus first on wearing down the Ghost Cultivator!

He extended his hand, and the Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light appeared.

This Divine Light, now, seemed to be the highly condensed form of Wood Spiritual Light!

After merging the two, Fang Xi didn’t even need to cultivate or refine it by himself, as he could directly extract the Wood Spiritual Power from Heaven and Earth and transform it into the Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light!

"This Divine Light remains my sharpest technique after becoming a Transcendent God."

Most high-level Cultivators practice Secret Skills for the purpose of increasing their power as their realm increases.

After all, crafting magical treasures requires the consumption of a great deal of precious materials and effort.

"Now that I’ve become a Transcendent God..."

"The first thing I should do is..."

A contemplative look appeared in Fang Xi’s eyes.

...

The Nine States.

A figure flashed, and Fang Xi activated the communicator: "Ghost Axe, Bai Mei, Demon Exterminator... come see me at once!"

To Fang Xi, Ancestor Huo was already as good as dead bones in a tomb.

He didn’t even bother to consolidate his cultivation realm and was determined to subdue The Nine States first!

In comparison to revenge and stabilizing his realm, this matter was most important!

After all, this realm could still offer him considerable help even after he had become a Transcendent God.

"What is the matter, Master of the Enforcing Law Hall?"

Master Bai Mei frowned.

He had thought Fang Xi had uncovered a significant case involving the Fang Immortal Taoist Palace.

"A small matter... I’ve become a Transcendent God!"

Fang Xi replied softly.

Clap!

Three communications were immediately severed.

It wasn’t long before three Nascent Souls’ Escape Lights surged forward and landed at Fang Xi’s Dongfu.

Master Bai Mei’s eyebrows drooped, and his forehead seemed to wrinkle into a ’chuan’ character.

Master Ghost Axe looked at Fang Xi, his eyes wide open, his face revealing excitement: "Indeed... your aura is so restrained it’s extreme, to my eyes, you appear to be just a mortal, truly the power of a Transcendent God!"

Lord Demon Exterminator was silent as he exchanged glances with Master Bai Mei, and both thought of a troubling matter.

The Fang Immortal Taoist Master left a decree before ascending—if anyone became Transcendent God first, they would succeed as the Fang Immortal Taoist Master!

But they never thought Fang Xi would come from behind to succeed, did they?

Strictly speaking, Fang Xi, the Master of the Enforcing Law Hall, was also appointed by the Fang Immortal Taoist Master, and all three of them had agreed to this during the Nascent Souls’ meeting; the process was as regular as it could get.

Theoretically, no one could challenge this Enforcing Law Hall Master’s qualification to inherit the Fang Immortal Taoist Palace!

But... what the masses did not know, these three Nascent Soul True Monarchs did; Fang Xi was not only a Demon Cultivator but also might be from a different world!

Allowing a cultivator from another world to become the Fang Immortal Taoist Master?

Naturally, Master Bai Mei was somewhat unwilling in his heart.

Master Ghost Axe also came around at this point, gazing deeply at Fang Xi, and then suddenly spoke up: "Taoist Master is scholarly and celestial, adept at divination, his previous decree... perhaps he had already foreseen all this?"

Once spoken, Lord Demon Exhuminator and Master Bai Mei immediately looked moved.

Indeed! The Fang Immortal Taoist Master might have long foreseen everything!

And with the prestige of the Taoist Master, pushing Fang Xi to power would be likely.

Now, the prestige of the Fang Immortal Taoist Master in The Nine States was almost tantamount to a deity, but he didn’t announce that directly and instead left it implicit, which also gave the three of them face.

Moreover, the three True Monarchs were after all Cultivators!

Among Cultivators, strength was supreme!

A Transcendent God Cultivator was more qualified to succeed as the Fang Immortal Taoist Master than a Nascent Soul!
