Cultivating To Immortality

Over the years, Su Shan had cultivated with Fang Hong, and during this period, she had also consumed many Immortal Pills refined by Fang Hong, so her cultivation also improved rapidly, advancing with great momentum.

She had now reached the Late Stage Mahayana realm, and was only one step away from peak, so it would not be long before she could catch up to Fang Hong's pace.

In addition to the significant increase in his cultivation, Fang Hong had also made major breakthroughs in artifact refining.

During this time, he had successfully refined two more Immortal Artifacts, namely the years pearl and the nirvana divine thunder sword.

Ever since he acquired Immortal Qi, Fang Hong prioritized upgrading the years pearl.

After careful tempering and refining, the years pearl successfully advanced to an Immortal Artifact, and its already powerful Divine Power prowess was greatly enhanced once again.

Now, the time acceleration effect of the years pearl had reached 2,500 times.

This meant that while only one year passed in the outside world, 2,500 years had already elapsed within the years pearl.

This greatly shortened the time Fang Hong needed to cultivate spirit medicine.

Just for collecting Immortal Qi, it used to take seven years, but now he could collect Immortal Qi from an immortal spirit flower once every four years, significantly improving efficiency.

Moreover, after the immortal spirit flower spewed out Immortal Qi each time, it would also produce two seeds.

It was precisely by relying on these seeds that the number of immortal spirit flowers Fang Hong cultivated grew, and the Immortal Qi they could produce in the future would naturally increase.

As long as there was enough Immortal Qi, Fang Hong could use it to temper other heavenly spiritual treasures, helping these spiritual treasures breakthrough their bottleneck and transform into Immortal Artifacts.

His seventy-two nirvana divine thunder swords, after repeated tempering with Immortal Qi, finally successfully advanced to Immortal Artifacts.

After advancing, the overall power of the nirvana divine thunder sword was enhanced by an unknown number of times compared to before.

With this set of nirvana divine thunder sword Immortal Swords protecting him, coupled with his own cultivation at Peak Mahayana Perfection.

Within the entire Profound Fallen Realm, Fang Hong could almost sweep away all opponents.

Apart from the years pearl and the nirvana divine thunder sword, these two core supreme treasures.

Fang Hong's other spiritual treasures, having absorbed a large amount of idle spiritual artifacts using the Spirit Devouring Secret Art, all advanced to top-tier heavenly spiritual treasures.

As long as Fang Hong collected more Immortal Qi and integrated it into these top-tier heavenly spiritual treasures, he could upgrade them one by one into Immortal Artifacts.

In these twenty years, the situation on the Azure Holy Continent had undergone significant changes.

In the past, various sects on the Azure Holy Continent stood in great numbers, with both cooperation and overt and covert struggles between them, maintaining a delicate balance.

But ever since the incident of the Misty Immortal Mansion, this balance was completely broken.

Because the high-level combat forces of all the sects had all met with misfortune in the Misty Immortal Mansion and perished.

The major sects, having lost their high-level combat forces, were like tigers with broken spines, instantly falling into chaos and panic.

The Azure Emperor Holy Land seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and relying on its formidable strength, easily integrated these leaderless sects.

It transformed all of them into branches of the Holy Land and dispatched experienced Elders to each branch to manage daily affairs.

Now, it could be said that the Azure Emperor Holy Land had completely controlled the entire Azure Holy Continent, becoming the undisputed hegemon of the Azure Holy Continent.

Rumble.

One day, above the originally clear and cloudless Azure Emperor Holy Land, dark clouds suddenly gathered, and the black clouds continuously converged and rolled in the sky.

Immediately after, streaks of lightning streaked and moved through the clouds, with lightning flashes and thunderous roars, and the entire world was enveloped by an abnormal phenomenon.

Just at this moment, an indescribably powerful pressure slowly emanated from the summit of a certain peak within the Azure Emperor Holy Land.

This pressure, in just a moment, spread out in all directions with the force of a thunderbolt.

First, it covered a hundred-mile radius, then extended to ten thousand miles away, and finally swept across the entire Profound Fallen Realm.

Making every cultivator in the Profound Fallen Realm clearly feel this shock from the depths of their soul.

"This, what on earth is going on? This pressure is too terrifying."

"This kind of earth-shattering abnormal phenomenon, with black clouds covering the sky and continuous thunder, could it be that our Holy Lord is about to undergo tribulation and ascend to Immortality?"

Immortal Ascension was the lifelong goal of countless cultivators, but throughout history, very few people could truly reach this step.

Now, if they could personally witness the Holy Lord's Ascension, it would definitely be a great opportunity.

The Cultivators within the Azure Emperor Holy Land, whether they were meditating and cultivating or handling sect affairs, all showed expressions of shock when they felt this powerful pressure.

They all stopped what they were doing and, by prior agreement, raised their heads, their gazes burning as they looked towards the source of the abnormal phenomenon.

That peak exuding a powerful aura.

And on another mountaintop not far from that peak, the high-ranking Elders of the Azure Emperor Holy Land had already gathered.

Each of them had a solemn expression, their gazes fixed on the peak in front.

Fang Hong and Su Shan stood side by side at the very front of the crowd.

Everyone present had an undisguised look of awe on their faces, all looking up at the sky, waiting for that crucial moment to arrive.

The guesses of the various vultivators were correct; today was the day Azure Emperor would assault the Immortal Dao and undergo tribulation for Ascension.

As time passed, the dark clouds above the peak grew thicker, and then, an enormous black cloud vortex slowly appeared.

This black vortex was like the gaping maw of a giant beast, deep and dark.

Within the black vortex, countless streaks of lightning continuously flickered and surged, emitting sizzling sounds, and a destructive aura emanated from it.

The terrifying True Immortal Tribulation was about to descend.

The Elders and disciples of the Holy Land watched from afar, their faces filled with reverence and anticipation.

"Husband, Master will she be alright?" Su Shan looked at the increasingly terrifying black cloud vortex, her worry growing stronger.

She quickly transmitted her voice to Fang Hong beside her.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Qing has already taken the Ascension Pill which can increase the success rate of undergoing tribulation, and she also has the Immortal Sword's blessing."

"What's more, Little Rainbow previously gave her a mysterious imprint, which contains a unique protective power."

"With these three layers of protection, Fellow Daoist Qing should have no major problems undergoing the True Immortal Tribulation." Fang Hong replied with a smile.

Hearing Fang Hong's words, Su Shan's anxious heart gradually settled down a lot.

Since Fang Hong said so, then Master's hope of undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation must be very high.

Over the years, Fang Hong had shared some Immortal Pills with Azure Emperor.

Azure Emperor was already exceptionally gifted, and with the help of the Immortal Pills, her cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, also reaching the Perfection realm of Peak Mahayana.

Moreover, she also possessed an Immortal Sword, which naturally greatly increased the success rate of undergoing tribulation.

Seeing that the Heavenly Tribulation could descend at any moment, Fang Hong raised his right hand, and a powerful restriction shot out from his fingertip.

This restriction merged with the Holy Land's original defensive formation, instantly making the entire Azure Emperor Holy Land's defense even more solid.

It was enough to withstand the impact of the Heavenly Tribulation's aftermath, preventing the Holy Land's disciples from unnecessary harm.
