Cultivating To Immortality

"How has the sect developed these past few years?" Fang Hong changed the topic, asking about the Four Seas Sect's recent situation.

Afterward, Fang Hong and Xiao Yu chatted about the Four Seas Sect's recent years, and Xiao Yu answered each question with great enthusiasm.

Ever since the war for supremacy ended that year, the Four Seas Sect's dominant position in the Heavenly Azure Sea Domain had been unshakeable.

The entire sect was thriving, and everything was steadily developing in a better and better direction.

About an hour later, Xiao Yu left Fang Hong's Immortal Cave with a smile on her face and light steps.

During their conversation, Fang Hong had borrowed a dragon god key from Xiao Yu, which was a crucial token for entering the Dragon Palace.

Although the Dragon Palace would not appear for a long time, with this key in hand, he should be able to roughly sense its hidden location.

Before Xiao Yu left, Fang Hong took out many unused spirit pills and gifted them to her, and also imparted the entire Thunder Fire Divine Skill to her.

With these spirit pills to aid her Cultivation, coupled with Xiao Yu's inherent talent, advancing to Divine Transformation in the future would not be difficult, and there was even a great hope of reaching the Void Refining Realm.

After Xiao Yu left, Fang Hong did not linger in the Four Seas Sect.

His figure flickered, and he silently departed again, flying towards the depths of the Heavenly Azure Sea Domain.

In the following days, Fang Hong, holding the dragon god key, almost traversed every body of water in the Inner Sea, just to find the exact location of the Dragon Palace.

When his search in the Inner Sea yielded no results, Fang Hong unhesitatingly moved to the Outer Sea, searching day after day across the vast and boundless ocean.

…

Half a month silently passed.

Just as Fang Hong was about to lose patience, he finally detected a trace of the Dragon Palace in a remote and rarely visited area of the Outer Sea.

Fang Hong hovered high above the sea, the dragon god key in his hand emitting faint sensing fluctuations, clearly indicating that the Dragon Palace was hidden within the deep sea below.

Fang Hong concentrated and spread out his Divine Sense, carefully probing the sea below.

A moment later, his Divine Sense touched a strange barrier, and Fang Hong's eyes suddenly widened.

It was a mysterious spatial barrier; vague outlines were faintly visible beyond the barrier, suggesting that the Dragon Palace was hidden within that isolated space.

As long as he could open this barrier, he could enter the Dragon Palace in advance, just like entering the guangyin stele.

Fang Hong no longer hesitated, his figure swooped down, diving directly into the seawater.

He stopped dozens of feet in front of the barrier, condensed a violent lightning finger on his fingertip, and struck it out fiercely.

Dazzling lightning exploded in the seawater, instantly illuminating the dark seabed.

The seawater within several hundred miles was evaporated by the power of the lightning, churning and bubbling with countless hot air bubbles, and the originally calm seabed instantly became a boiling cauldron.

However, the lightning and the barrier were in a stalemate for a moment, but it failed to move it in the slightest.

Suddenly, a powerful rebound force erupted from the barrier, not only shattering Fang Hong's lightning finger but also sending him flying backward.

Fang Hong stabilized his figure, his brows tightly furrowed.

The strength of this spatial barrier far exceeded his expectations; it was several times stronger than the restriction outside the guangyin stele, and certainly not something that could be easily broken.

Fang Hong's eyes narrowed, and he no longer held back.

His right fist slowly clenched, the sound of a Dragon's roar quietly rising from his fist, the Dragon Fist poised and ready.

Immediately after, the Barbarian God Art circulated, and surging Qi and blood energy poured into his right arm, doubling the power of his fist.

"Break for me."

Fang Hong roared, condensing all his strength into his right fist, and with an unstoppable aura, he fiercely smashed towards the spatial barrier.

Bang.

A loud bang exploded on the seabed, and a violent shockwave spread in all directions, shattering the fish, shrimp, and Demon Beasts within several hundred miles.

But Fang Hong's figure flew backward again, being bounced back several hundred feet before he barely managed to stabilize himself.

Fang Hong looked down at his right arm, only to see that the clothes on his entire arm were soaked with blood, and the skin had cracked into several ghastly wounds, clearly indicating a significant injury.

A look of disappointment immediately appeared on Fang Hong's face.

This spatial barrier was too strong; with his current cultivation at the Void Refining Middle Stage, he simply couldn't break it, let alone subdue the Dragon Palace.

But then he thought, this precisely showed that the Dragon Palace, this secret treasure, was by no means an ordinary item; it was at least a Heaven-reaching spiritual treasure level existence.

As for its true upper limit, Fang Hong did not yet know.

But the more so, the stronger Fang Hong's desire became.

The more powerful the Dragon Palace was, the more Fang Hong wanted to subdue it.

Although he couldn't subdue it now, he had already made up his mind that once his cultivation advanced, he would definitely return to try again.

Fang Hong immediately performed the Spirit Recovery Secret Art, and a light green spiritual light enveloped his injured right arm; in just a few breaths, the flesh had re-condensed, and the injury was completely healed.

Afterward, Fang Hong no longer lingered, turned into a streak of light, and quickly flew away from this sea area.

Since the Dragon Palace could not be subdued for now, there was no longer much point in staying in the Heavenly Profound Realm.

It was time to set off for the broader Profound Fallen Realm.

Fang Hong arrived on a desolate island, an island that was uninhabited year-round, with only strange rocks and weeds.

He raised his hand and waved, summoning the Star Tower, which floated in mid-air.

With a thought, Fang Hong's figure already appeared in the space of the fourth floor of the Star Tower.

After being re-refined by the fire cloud gourd, the Star Tower was now completely controlled by Fang Hong; every space and every formation within the tower was within his perception.

He raised his hand, and a complex formation immediately appeared on the ground.

Immediately after, Fang Hong took out a large amount of spirit stones from his storage ring, continuously channeling them into the formation's core, a total of a million spirit stones, piling up a small mountain of spirit stones in the formation.

These spirit stones would serve as the flying power to drive the Star Tower; based on the Star Tower's consumption, these million spirit stones should be enough to support it in crossing space and flying to the Profound Fallen Realm.

With the spirit stones arranged, Fang Hong quickly formed hand seals, and a thick magical power was injected into the formation, beginning to activate the Star Tower.

Boom.

The formation inside the Star Tower was instantly activated, countless streams of light flowed within the formation patterns, and the entire tower was enveloped in a dazzling white light.

Immediately after, with a sharp whoosh sound, the Star Tower transformed into a white meteor, suddenly rushing into the high sky, its speed increasing rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it broke through the clouds.

As it flew, a dark spatial crack suddenly opened high in the sky, and a powerful spatial suction force emanated from the crack.

The Star Tower directly drilled into it, taking Fang Hong completely out of the Heavenly Profound Realm.

And that spatial crack, after the Star Tower entered, slowly contracted and closed.
