Cultivating To Immortality
Chapter 395: Interested
When Fang Hong refined the puppets, he specifically endowed each puppet with a different Origin Law.
Some controlled raging flames, capable of burning mountains and boiling seas.
Others manipulated ice, able to freeze all things.
In addition, there were also Law powers of various attributes like earth and metal.
Therefore, these puppets were not only powerful in combat but could also cast various attribute-based exquisite Immortal Arts.
If one hundred puppets cooperated with each other, responding in unison to form a battle array, the power they unleashed would be even stronger, far more formidable than fighting alone.
If these one hundred puppets appeared simultaneously, it would be enough to scare a Peak Grand Unity Cultivator to death.
After a while, Fang Hong slowly opened his eyes, awakening from his Cultivation state.
He gently waved one hand, and one hundred wide black robes appeared out of thin air, accurately landing on each puppet.
After putting on the black robes, the puppets gained an added sense of mystery and dominance.
The Law runes on their bodies were concealed by the black robes, with only occasional faint light seeping through, making them appear even more unfathomable.
Subsequently, Fang Hong recalled all the puppets into his years pearl.
With the help of these one hundred Grand Unity puppets, the efficiency of hunting Ancient Demon on the Ancient Demon Continent would undoubtedly increase significantly, saving time.
Fang Hong walked out of the Artifact Refining Room and onto the deck of the vast sea warship.
The sea breeze brushed his face as Fang Hong looked ahead, suddenly spotting an enormous island on the sea surface not far in front.
The island was vast, with no end in sight.
Within the island were numerous magnificent palaces, pavilions, and towers, arranged in an orderly fashion, exuding a grand Aura.
Even more astonishing was the sight of many Cultivators flying through the air, weaving between the pavilions, coming and going in an endless stream, a scene of thriving prosperity.
Its prosperity was no less than that of Purple Cloud Immortal Island, which Fang Hong had passed through some time ago.
Fang Hong felt a slight curiosity; it was somewhat unexpected that such a prosperous island existed near the Ancient Demon Continent.
So, with a thought, he recalled the vast sea warship into his body.
He then transformed into a streak of light, rapidly flying towards the giant island, wanting to investigate and see what its Origin was.
Approaching the edge of the giant island, Fang Hong saw giant humanoid statues standing along the shore.
These statues had peculiar designs; some wore battle armor, others held staves, all with dignified and lifelike expressions.
They shared a similar ingenious design with the guardian statues of Purple Cloud Immortal Island.
At the same time, Fang Hong also sensed an invisible restriction enveloping the island.
The restriction’s fluctuations were powerful and subtle, clearly a top-tier island-guarding restriction capable of withstanding attacks from an Immortal King Cultivator.
From this, it seemed that this island must also be the territory of an Immortal King expert, otherwise, it would be impossible to set up such a formidable restriction.
A moment later, Fang Hong flew to the entrance gate of the giant island’s city.
There were several Cultivator guards at the city gate. Fang Hong, following local rules, paid ten thousand Immortal Stones as an entry fee, and the guards allowed him into the city.
Upon entering the city, a prosperous and bustling Aura assailed him.
The streets were wide and clean, entirely paved with bluestone, with tall buildings lining both sides, housing various shops.
Cultivators came and went, flying through the air between the various pavilions, creating a lively scene, completely unlike being near the dangerous Ancient Demon Continent...
Fang Hong casually walked up to a small street vendor and inquired about news from the stall owner.
The stall owner was a middle-aged Cultivator, whose Cultivation Level was at Early Stage Golden Immortal. Seeing that Fang Hong’s Aura was not weak and he did not seem like a bad person, he enthusiastically answered his questions.
Through their conversation, Fang Hong learned that this giant island was called "Ancient Demon Island."
The Island Master was indeed an Immortal King expert, known as "Demon-Subduing Immortal King," and this city was named "Demon-Subduing City" after the Island Master’s title.
From the stall owner, Fang Hong also learned that by continuing to fly eastward from Ancient Demon Island for over a million miles, one could directly reach the Ancient Demon Continent.
Because the Ancient Demon Continent was overrun with Ancient Demon and fraught with danger, yet at the same time, it contained countless Opportunities and resources, it attracted a large number of Cultivators to undergo trials.
Ancient Demon Island, with its advantageous geographical location, became a necessary passage and a stopping point for Cultivators heading to the Ancient Demon Continent.
The various resources obtained by Cultivators during their trials on the Ancient Demon Continent could also be brought back here for trade.
Over time, this place developed into such a prosperous scene.
Under the guidance of the small stall vendor, Fang Hong arrived at "Demon-Subduing Street," which was said to be the busiest trading street in the city.
Arriving at Demon-Subduing Street, Fang Hong looked around and saw thousands of stalls neatly arranged on both sides of the street.
Each stall was filled with various items, a dazzling array that left people overwhelmed.
Cultivators moved between the stalls, all hoping to buy treasures useful for their Cultivation.
Fang Hong leisurely strolled past the various stalls, his gaze casually sweeping over the items, wondering if he could find a treasure he liked.
Most of the stall owners on this trading street were Golden Immortal Cultivators, not weak in strength.
They sold a wide variety of items, diverse and comprehensive, including artifact refining materials, Immortal Pills, Immortal Medicines, and so on.
With Fang Hong’s current discerning eye, although there were many things at these stalls, truly few caught his attention.
Just then, Fang Hong’s steps suddenly stopped in front of a relatively secluded stall.
The owner of this stall was a black-clothed man, wearing a black mask that only revealed his eyes, making his appearance unclear.
Fang Hong sensed slightly and perceived that the other party’s Cultivation had already reached Peak Golden Immortal, only a step away from Grand Unity Golden Immortal, so his strength was quite good.
Looking at the items displayed on the stall, they were all rather strange-looking materials.
However, these materials all looked somewhat old and incomplete, as if they had been unearthed from some Ancient Tomb or Secret Realm buried deep underground...
"Grand Unity Golden Immortal!"
The black-clothed man constantly paid attention to the Aura of passing Cultivators.
When Fang Hong approached, he instantly sensed the powerful Aura fluctuations emanating from Fang Hong.
That Aura was vast and boundless, unfathomable, far surpassing ordinary Golden Immortal Cultivators; he was clearly an expert of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Rank.
Although the black-clothed man’s face remained impassive, his heart was already starting to feel nervous, not expecting a Grand Unity Cultivator to patronize his stall.
The black-clothed man dared not show the slightest neglect and quickly stood up from the chair behind the stall.
He respectfully greeted Fang Hong.
"Senior, have you taken a liking to any Material? If there’s anything you’re interested in, please feel free to speak."
Fang Hong’s gaze swept over the stall, finally settling on a dark, lumpy iron block.
The iron block was about the size of a fist, entirely black, with a pitted surface, appearing extremely ordinary, even bearing some rust, completely inconspicuous.
But Fang Hong sensed a faint yet unusual fluctuation from its interior, which greatly intrigued him.
