Cultivating To Immortality
Chapter 378: Body Breakthrough
Fang Hong immediately activated a void talisman and was instantly teleported out of the Treasure Realm space, returning to the outside world.
Without the slightest hesitation, Fang Hong once again used his Void Secret Technique, quickly fleeing towards the northeast.
The Eastern Luo Sect’s people might chase him out soon, so he had to get as far away from here as possible.
Fang Hong certainly wouldn’t return to the sect; going back would only invite trouble.
His only thought now was to find a safe place, enter seclusion to cultivate, and attempt to breakthrough to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.
As long as he could successfully advance to Grand Unity Golden Immortal, his strength would undergo a qualitative leap.
By then, even if the Eastern Luo Sect sent people to hunt him down, it wouldn’t be so easy.
Two days later, the entrance to the Treasure Realm slowly closed.
The disciples and Elders of the three sects within the Treasure Realm were all teleported out, returning to the outside world.
As soon as the two Elders of the Eastern Luo Sect emerged, they immediately searched for Fang Hong’s figure.
They had previously received a message from Ye Cheng’s father, asking them to help capture Fang Hong.
But to their disappointment, Fang Hong had already fled two days prior, leaving no trace.
The two Elders searched the vicinity for a long time but still found no sign of Fang Hong.
Helpless, they had no choice but to give up the search and return to the sect with the Eastern Luo Sect disciples.
Another two days later, Fang Hong was indeed placed on the Eastern Luo Sect’s wanted list.
The list described Fang Hong as a Demonic Path spy who infiltrated the sect, secretly learned core Immortal Rank techniques, and harmed fellow disciples.
The sect also offered a very high reward; anyone who could provide information on Fang Hong’s whereabouts would receive generous compensation.
If he could be slain, the reward would be doubled.
However, at this time, Fang Hong was traveling northeast and had no idea that he had been placed on the Eastern Luo Sect’s wanted list.
After leaving the Treasure Realm, Fang Hong continuously flew at full speed towards the northeast.
The reason he chose the northeast was because he had read in ancient texts that there was an Ancient Demon Continent in the northeast of the True Immortal Continent, and he intended to go there for some tempering.
According to the ancient texts, the Ancient Demon Continent was one of the most dangerous continents in the Human Realm; it also had another name, the Ancient Demon Battlefield.
A long time ago, it was the main battlefield where the Human Realm’s beings resisted the invasion of ancient Fierce Demons from beyond the heavens. That war lasted for a very long time, with countless casualties.
Even now, the Ancient Demon Continent is still filled with a large amount of Demonic Qi, and many Fierce Demons are active on the continent.
These Fierce Demons are powerful and savage; even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal Rank would be in mortal danger on the Ancient Demon Continent, and a slight misstep could lead to death.
However, Fang Hong was precisely interested in the Fierce Demons on the Ancient Demon Continent.
In the eyes of other Cultivators, Fierce Demons are extremely violent and terrifying existences.
But to Fang Hong, those Fierce Demons were no threat; instead, they were like Immortal Pills that could help him improve.
Moreover, the Ancient Demon Continent was called the Ancient Demon Battlefield, where not only Fierce Demons were active, but also countless treasures left by ancient Cultivators were buried underground.
Because of this, many bold Cultivators who wanted to seek breakthroughs would specifically go to the Ancient Demon Continent for tempering.
If they were lucky, they might find an opportunity on the Ancient Demon Continent, such as obtaining a powerful Immortal Artifact or a top-tier Dao cultivation technique, and it wasn’t entirely impossible to rise to prominence.
"I hope there are many ancient Fierce Demons on the Ancient Demon Continent this time; don’t let me down."
Fang Hong muttered to himself, urging his Immortal Qi to fly forward at the fastest speed.
However, before setting off for the Ancient Demon Continent, he still had an important task to complete.
First, find a stable, undisturbed place to enter seclusion for a period of time and further enhance his strength.
Fang Hong flew non-stop for a full three months.
Finally, Fang Hong flew out of the True Immortal Continent and eventually arrived at a vast, boundless sea.
This sea had a specific name: the Ancient Demon Sea.
According to the information he had gathered, as long as he successfully crossed this Ancient Demon Sea, he would reach his destination, the Ancient Demon Continent.
But the Ancient Demon Sea was truly too vast; even if Fang Hong maintained full-speed flight, it would still take two to three years.
"If I can advance to Grand Unity Golden Immortal, my flying speed will definitely increase significantly, and the travel time will be shortened considerably."
Fang Hong calculated in his mind, accelerating his search for a place to enter seclusion.
Not long after, Fang Hong finally discovered an inconspicuous small island.
This island was not large, appeared very remote, and there were no traces of other Cultivators or powerful Demon Beasts in the vicinity, making it an excellent place for seclusion.
Fang Hong found a hidden area on the island and began to excavate a simple, temporary Immortal Cave.
Next, he set up several defensive restrictions at the entrance of the Immortal Cave and around the island.
After completing these tasks and confirming that no one would easily disturb him, Fang Hong confidently walked into the Immortal Cave.
Following his usual habit of entering seclusion, Fang Hong first took out the years pearl and placed it in a crack in the Immortal Cave wall.
The Immortal Cave space inside the years pearl was safer and more suitable for secluded Cultivation; the true place of seclusion was actually there.
With everything ready, Fang Hong entered the Immortal Cave secret chamber within the years pearl.
He took out the ten purple gold fruits he had obtained earlier from his storage bag, intending to first refine them to strengthen his physical body.
After his physical body strength improved, he would then attempt to breakthrough to a higher realm.
Proceeding step by step like this would make the Cultivation path more stable and less prone to errors.
Fang Hong sat cross-legged, picked up a purple gold fruit, held it in his hand, and began to refine it by circulating his cultivation technique.
As the cultivation technique circulated, the rich medicinal power within the purple gold fruit slowly released, like a warm stream, continuously flowing into his body through his palm.
This medicinal power dispersed within his body, slowly permeating his bones and flesh, tempering his body bit by bit.
His physical body realm, which had shown no signs of breakthrough for a long time, began to show obvious movement under the nourishment of the medicinal power, even rapidly increasing at a visible speed.
Days passed, and in the blink of an eye, a month had gone by.
On this day, Fang Hong finally finished refining all ten purple gold fruits.
Suddenly, Fang Hong sharply opened his eyes, a keen light flashing within them, and his entire body glowed with a dazzling golden light.
Immediately after, Fang Hong gently raised his right fist and swung it forward with a slight force.
With a whoosh, a powerful gust of wind appeared out of nowhere, skillfully passing through the Immortal Cave wall and flying directly towards a ten-thousand-zhang-tall peak several miles away.
Boom.
A deafening explosion echoed, and the previously towering ten-thousand-zhang-tall peak, enveloped by the punch’s force, instantly turned into scattered dust, dissipating into the air.
Fang Hong slowly retracted his fist, feeling the surging power within his body, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
That feeling of a physical body filled with immense power, incredibly strong, had finally returned.
After refining these ten purple gold fruits, Fang Hong’s physical body realm had continuously Broken Through, successfully reaching the level of Early Stage Golden Immortal.
