Chapter 1056: Beginning of War
It was natural to clean up the battlefield after killing the enemy .
Fang Yuan himself was an expert in this aspect . Gold Ingot also gave some pointers, ensuring that all traces pointing to him were gone .
After that, he hid in a corner and concentrated on his cultivation .
Not long after, a white light flickered from the sky and appeared midair . It looked like a small boat approaching at a very fast speed . Some people jumped down from it . The first person had a youthful face, white hair, the figure of a boy, and was wearing colorful feather clothes, but his aura was terrifying .
“An Immortal who transcended the lightning tribulation?”
Fang Yuan rubbed his finger and hid the white jade ring elsewhere .
When he saw Mo He and Wu Qi beside the Immortal, his eyes shone, and he ran out . “Greetings to Master, Immortal!”
“Un, I’m Immortal Brutal Child . What happened to Qing Meng?” the boy in the colorful feather clothes asked lightly, not even mentioning Hong Ling and Yuan Wu .
Obviously, their blood jades already explained everything .
“Replying to Immortal, I don’t know!” Fang Yuan raised his head, showing his innocent eyes . “There was a Primordial Core Fey chasing after me at that time . I fled into a mysterious realm and hid until now…”
“Looks like there isn’t much hope then!”
Immortal Brutal Child shook his head and glanced around . “There’s a very strong aura, at least five Primordial Core Fey with the Silver Moon Fey Wolf among them . Could the Nascent Soul stage cultivator have withdrawn after being besieged by the Fey?”
Five Primordial Core Fey together could not defeat someone at the Apotheosis realm, but they could definitely hold out until an Immortal came .
Therefore, it was completely understandable for the Nascent Soul stage cultivator to withdraw early .
“You’re lying!” Wu Qi’s face reddened, knowing that his disciples were probably dead . “How could a mere Materialization disciple like you escape from a Primordial Core Fey chasing you?”
“Is Master Wu Qi doubting me?” Fang Yuan turned his head . “You must be joking… Moreover, we’re facing a powerful enemy currently . As an elder, why are you staring so hard at an insignificant low-ranking disciple? What are you up to?”
“You…” Wu Qi’s veins popped . “What a sharp tongue, kid! I will teach you what respect for elders means today…”
“Wu Qi… it’s not your business to teach my disciple!” Mo He coughed, pulled out the curved saber at his waist, and stepped forward .
“You two… enough!” Immortal Brutal Child frowned and pointed at Fang Yuan . “How did you escape from the Primordial Core Fey wolf?”
“Replying to Immortal, this disciple had a sudden breakthrough in law comprehension in that life-and-death situation!”

Fang Yuan bowed, and a lot of Saber Qi appeared around him .
“Comprehending Saber Realm at the Materialization realm and only one step away from completion of the Nomological Laws of Saber? Truly a genius . No wonder you entered the Holy Mountain so early!” Immortal Brutal Child nodded . “You can fight with a Primordial Core Fey beast given your Saber Realm and your spirit artifact!”
No matter how high his realm was, he still required a cultivation base to support it .
In fact, Fang Yuan would not have had such an easy time killing those at the Primordial Core realm if he did not have the Nine Star Pearl .
However, even if he could face someone at the Primordial Core realm with his Materialization realm cultivation and Saber Realm, it did not mean that he could kill a Primordial Core Great Fey nor do anything to a genius disciple of the Holy Mountain .
“Materialization realm, Saber Realm?” Wu Qi gritted his teeth secretly and gave Mo He a surprised sidelong glance . Damn… not only did they not kill this kid, they actually helped him improve! Qing Meng and the others were trash as well!
“Also, this disciple has something to report!” Fang Yuan dug out the Kun Yun Token . “This is the evidence that I’ve completed the investigative mission this time!”
“It’s unexpectedly the Kun Yun Sect?” Immortal Brutal Child took the token, clearly surprised . “Can those outside cultivators finally no longer endure it? This is of utmost importance . I have to go back immediately and discuss this with the other Immortals . You’ve done well in this matter!”
He waved his hand . Wu Qi and the rest got onto the flying boat and flew away without a trace .
Obviously, nothing was more important to the Immortals than the Kun Yun Sect’s intention to invade! Not the fate of three core disciples nor an undercover cultivator at the Apotheosis realm!
There were already signs about the outside world, and this evidence was just one more piece that made Immortal Brutal Child feel the impending crisis .
“So, Master Wu Qi, where is the reward for this mission?” Fang Yuan smiled and rubbed his hands gleefully at Wu Qi .
“You…” Wu Qi was furious, but he could not do anything since even the Immortal had recognized Fang Yuan’s contribution . He threw out a jade box coldly .
“Hmm, it’s indeed the thousand-year Blue Heart Fruit!”
Fang Yuan opened it, handed it to Mo He, and waited until he determined that it had no problems before putting it away . “Thank you, Master Wu Qi!”
“Hmph!” After suffering a double loss, Wu Qi turned around, not wanting to talk to Fang Yuan .
The speed of the flying boat far surpassed that of a four-winged griffin, and the Holy Mountain was in sight in no time .
“You can get off . I have to discuss something with the other patriarchs!”
Immortal Brutal Child flicked his sleeve, sending Wu Qi and the rest to a spot halfway up the mountain .

After watching Wu Qi leave, Mo He turned to Fang Yuan and said solemnly, “Disciple, immediately start cultivating in seclusion when you get back! I was right . The once-in-ten-thousand-year war between the barbarians and the cultivators is about to begin!”
“Understood!”
Fang Yuan did kill many people this time, but he only managed to complete the minimum of what he had set out to do . Fang Yuan had no other thoughts in mind .
At this point, he had to unlock the fifth star and improve his cultivation as soon as possible .
The clouds of war were casting their shadow, but there was still some time before the real war began .
Time flew, and half a year passed .
Barbarian Holy Mountain, inside a secret room .
A huge iron barrel was boiling greening-black liquid with charcoal burning below .
Fang Yuan was lying inside, watching his body absorb the greenish-black stuff and the liquid gradually becoming clear . He nodded . “The second level of the Hundred Physical Forging Technique is finally complete!”
Over the past six months, he had spent most of his time on refining his body and comprehending the fifth star .
These two techniques were both extremely profound . Until today, he had not even reached small success .
As for his cultivation? He had reached the peak of the Materialization realm and was one step away from condensing the Primordial Core .
Even so, he felt that he might be able to fight an Apotheosis realm powerhouse head-on with his current foundation and the Nine Star Pearl!
“Other than that, I’ve made progress in comprehending nomological laws . My Nomological Laws of Saber is a short distance away from complete comprehension, and the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws have reached the realm of the Septuple Space-Penetrating Blade!
“My focus next will be on forming my Primordial Core!”
The Primordial Core realm! It was a watershed for most barbarians .
As long as students in the Barbarian Palace successfully cultivated to this level within three years, they would be allowed to ascend the Holy Mountain and become part of the core!
“The greatest benefit of advancing to the Primordial Core realm is sealing a magical power obtained in the Materialization realm into the Primordial Core to become the Destiny Magical Power! I would then be able to comprehend the heaven and earth nomological laws represented by this magical power ten times, no, even a hundred times faster!”

The optimal choice of the Destiny Magical Power was naturally the Innate Magical Power . No one would make any mistakes on it .
“If I set my Illusion Realm Magical Power as my Destiny Magical Power, my sensing of spatial fluctuations will increase by tenfold at least… meaning that my comprehension speed will increase by tenfold! There’s hope in thoroughly comprehending the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws!”
Fang Yuan’s eyes were burning . “I’m now at peak Materialization . I only need an opportunity to condense the Primordial Core . ”
The breakthrough in a realm required not only a strong foundation but also the occasional flash of enlightenment .
In this regard, since it was a whole new universe and he had to start all over again, Fang Yuan still needed to adapt slowly .
On the Death Plains .
As one of the three passages connecting the Hundred Thousand Mountains and the outside world, the area here was the most extensive, stretching for more than five thousand kilometers .
Swoosh!
Human figures suddenly appeared all over the sky .
They were cultivators flying on magic artifacts, and they were as dense as locusts . Behind them were ships similar to flying war fortresses .
“The Hundred Thousand Mountains will be ours in the end!”
The first Immortal cultivator had red lips and white teeth . His face was jade-like, and his jet-black eyes were passionate . With a jade sword in hand, he flew above a tribe and swung .
Zap!
A sword light dozens of meters long swept across like a galaxy with unparalleled momentum and fell .
“How dare you!”
A figure appeared from the tribe and punched hard, hitting the center of the sword edge .
Clang!
The Sword Qi collapsed and dissipated into thin strands .
“Outside cultivator, I am an inspector from the Barbarian Ancestral Court—Ying Hong! Who exactly are you?”
This person named Ying Hong was at the level of an elder of the Holy Mountain . He hovered in the air with a huge Golden Winged Great Peng behind him .
“I’m Kun Lunzi, the sect master of the Kun Yun Sect . I am on orders from several Holy Lands and brought sects from the Three Mountains and Four Seas here together . ”
Kun Lunzi said solemnly, “A Demonic Tribulation is about to occur, bringing harm to all . If the Immortals from the barbarians are willing to join the Combat Heavenly Palace, then everything can be discussed . Otherwise, we will destroy the Hundred Thousand Mountains this time!”
“Demonic Tribulation?!” Ying Hong’s expression changed . “You want to provoke a war? This Hundred Thousand Mountains is the land given to us barbarians by the heavens! You couldn’t occupy it before, and it’ll be the same this time . ”
“Hehe… As expected, anyone not of our race will definitely have different intentions . Sect Master, there’s no need to say so much!”
A youngster with white eyebrows and seven flying swords on his back appeared beside Kun Lunzi . “Seven Stars Sword, unsheath!”
Swoosh!
Starlight exploded, and seven sword lights rained onto the earth . Aided by the power of the stars, they formed an array surrounding Ying Hong . “Today… I’ll give you a lesson!”
The cultivators in the rear watched this scene quietly .
Chirp chirp!
It did not take long for the array and golden light to burst .
A Golden Winged Great Peng flapped its wings and disappeared .
“Remember what we said . Tell the Immortals, peace or war will depend on their decision!” Kun Lunzi showed compassion as his voice spread far and wide .
