Chapter 816: Chapter 722: Five Hundred Years In A Hurry_2

Fang Xi was indifferent.

The chance to make a breakthrough to Returning to Emptiness? He no longer needed it.

"With the contribution points accumulated by these two women, when the time comes to redeem items from the ’Heavenly Charm Sect,’ it’s essentially be items of the same rank as the ’Brahma Sound Golden Bell.’ If I could also buy a ’Biyi Breaking Virtual Pill’ or something similar to assist in making a breakthrough from the auction, the odds... would only be fifty-fifty!"

Even for talented Ascending Immortals, breaking through such major realms is a huge challenge.

While Transcendent God Cultivators are merely the backbone in the Earth Immortal Realm, after reaching Returning to Emptiness, one truly becomes part of the upper echelons.

One can see from the elevated status of the Wang Family Ancestor in Moon Invitation Immortal City after his breakthrough.

"The two ladies were lucky, encountering the Great Wilderness Reclamation..."

"If they really run into some enormous chance, Returning to Emptiness wouldn’t be difficult."

Fang Xi smiled slightly, then went back to continue his seclusion...

Time went by leisurely.

Over four hundred years passed quickly as if it were just a flick of a finger.

In the Mortal Realm.

Within the Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm.

Fang Xi’s entire body radiated a jade-like luster from his muscles, each inch seemingly containing strength comparable to that of a Primordial Chaos Beast.

Crack!

With a casual press, the furniture made from fifth-grade premium materials showed cracks!

"Ah... having a True Body of Sky Demon that’s too powerful isn’t entirely a good thing either!"

Fang Xi thought for a moment and took out a talisman, placing it on his chest.

With the invisible talisman imprints winding around his body like dark chains, he felt as if he were wearing a thick layer of clothing, and his surging strength was restrained.

Of course, this was only a temporary measure following the breakthrough of his divine skill.

To truly maintain control, one must familiarize oneself with newly acquired power and achieve the ability to wield it effortlessly.

For Fang Xi, this task was not difficult; it simply required some time to adapt.

Thinking back on the gains of nearly five hundred years, Fang Xi couldn’t help but let out a satisfied sigh.

In the previous hundred years, through constant trial and error, he had finally completed the inheritance of the sixth-rank ’Small Void Transfer Talisman’ and successfully refined his first talisman, although it was of low quality. But once the path was discovered, everything else progressed smoothly.

By the time he had been contemplating talisman secret patterns for around two hundred years, Fang Xi was able to proficiently draw a proper ’Small Void Transfer Talisman’ with about a thirty percent success rate.

For a sixth-rank Talisman Master, this rate was quite decent, and it allowed for significant profit.

When Fang Xi occasionally went to revel in the Earth Immortal Realm as the Wang Family Ancestor in disguise, he would release a small number of these sixth-rank talismans, and recent rumors in Moon Invitation Immortal City suggested that a reclusive Grandmaster Talisman Master had arrived...

Besides breakthroughs in the Taoist of Talisman, Fang Xi had also made rapid progress on the array path.

At this point, he seemed to recall something, flicked his hand, and a set of Mysterious Dark Flood Dragon banners appeared, namely the ’Mysterious Dark Banner’!

He had obtained this treasure from his heterodox incarnation, intending to use it to deduce a brand new Mysterious Dark Array.

Thanks to the Wang family’s continuous efforts to explore the ancient Immortal Mansions abroad, especially Li Ruoling, who had incredibly stumbled upon a damaged array map. Elated, Fang Xi immediately purchased a ’Transcendent God Elixir’ at the big auction held in Moon Invitation Immortal City and rewarded him generously to show his appreciation!

Although the array map was severely incomplete, roughly retaining only an eighth to a sixth of the original,

Fang Xi, relying on the numerous array patterns he had obtained and his own expertise in Arrays, along with using Tai Yi as a computational tool, had simulated and calculated for many years to finally grasp a shred of the essence of the Immortal Mansion’s Great Array.

"Fast!"

At this moment, as Fang Xi performed hand seals, streams of Mysterious Dark Heavy Water surged out of the Mysterious Dark Banner.

Within the Mysterious Dark Heavy Water were contained Mysterious Dark Divine Sand and endless toxic fog.

Beneath the Nine Nether Underworld River, it seemed as if a vast Flood Dragon lurked...

The waters roared!

Nine Nether Underworld River Endless Sands!

The Nine Netherworld Underworld River Mysterious Sand Array emerged, dark pillars of light descended, and within this array, another layer of transformation formed.

Amidst the booming array patterns, the essence of Mysterious Dark Heavy Water was sacrificially refined, condensed... and ultimately, it became a mysterious black divine light.

"Mysterious Dark Removes Calamity and Darkness Divine Light!"

Murmuring, Fang Xi named this creation.

This ’Mysterious Dark Removes Calamity and Darkness Divine Light’ was a supreme divine skill he had cultivated based on the ’Nine Netherworld Underworld River Mysterious Sand Array,’ incorporating the profound mysteries of the array from an ancient Immortal Mansion. Currently, it was at a sixth-rank level!

Its effect was simple: cultivators struck by this divine light, if they were in the Returning to Emptiness Phase, would have their Magic Power greatly suppressed.

If they were in the Transcendent God Phase, they would be directly demoted one level of Cultivation and temporarily fall back to the Nascent Soul Phase.

For Integration-level cultivators, however, it could not affect their Magic Power much.

But for those below the Integration level, even body cultivators would be weakened by this divine light in the Great Array!

"Only with the ’Mysterious Dark Removes Calamity and Darkness Divine Light’ incorporated does the Nine Netherworld Underworld River Mysterious Sand Array hold a fraction of the grandeur of the ancient Immortal Mansions’ Great Arrays!"

"What a pity I am still lacking in array expertise to make it effective against Integration-level cultivators..."

The ’Wealth, Prosperity, Longevity’ Three Talents Great Array that Fang Xi had once envisioned, now only the ’Wealth’ aspect was left to satisfy.

"Wealth represents fortune and opportunity..."

"It really does come down to relying on the Fortune Worm, doesn’t it?"

He sighed, putting away the array he was practicing with.

Now, the Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm, compared to five hundred years ago, had expanded several folds, with many Yellow Bean Strongmen, under the leadership of Divine Bean Spirit Generals, reclaiming tens of thousands of mu of Spiritual Fields.
