Following the core idea of creating Dao Techniques, Fang Hong no longer blindly studied existing Dao Techniques.

Instead, he began trying to combine his own insights to create Dao Techniques that truly suited him.

Unexpectedly, this attempt truly allowed him to successfully create quite a few practical and powerful Dao Techniques techniques.

Dao Techniques techniques highly unique in nature, such as Years Slash, Years Divine Light, and Five Elements Divine Fist, were all the results of his research during this period.

Take Years Divine Light, for example; it was a Dao Techniques technique created by Fang Hong through the clever Fusion of the Law of Light and the Law of Time, and its power could be called uncanny.

Once an opponent is hit head-on by this divine light, the Immortal Qi within their body will instantly accelerate its dissipation, as if being ruthlessly washed away by the years!

There is also the "Five Elements Divine Fist," which condenses the essence of the Five Elements Great Dao. When the fist intent is unleashed, it can draw upon the Power of the Five Elements between heaven and earth.

It achieves the terrifying effect of reversing the Five Elements and breaking Laws to return to the source. The saying "one punch breaks ten thousand Laws" is absolutely not an exaggeration.

All these Dao Techniques techniques were created by Fang Hong through continuous day and night comprehension of the essence of the Great Dao, combined with his own Cultivation, step by step.

Besides these few, Fang Hong created many other Dao Techniques techniques, covering categories such as offensive, defensive, and speed-based.

No matter what kind of battle situation he faces, he can find the corresponding countermeasure; the variety is complete, covering everything imaginable.

In actual combat, these different types of Dao Techniques techniques cooperate and switch flexibly, allowing Fang Hong to always maintain the initiative during fights.

His tactical changes are endless, always keeping him firmly in an advantageous position and preventing him from falling into a passive situation.

In terms of Dao Artifacts, Fang Hong did not fall behind either.

He first used the Great Dao Power to temper his six personal Dao Artifacts, including the demon soul banner, soul severing sword, and fire cloud gourd.

After another round of tempering, all six Dao Artifacts transformed into Third-Grade Dao Artifacts, and their quality and power were improved once again.

Following this, Fang Hong immersed himself in research and carried out a major improvement on the Spirit Devouring Secret Art.

After numerous adjustments and refinements, the improved Spirit Devouring Secret Art was finally able to be applied to Dao Artifacts.

By utilizing the power of the Secret Technique, he could quickly raise the grade of the Dao Artifacts, achieving efficiency far surpassing ordinary Great Dao tempering methods.

Taking advantage of the Secret Technique having just been improved, Fang Hong immediately began processing the batch of unused Immortal Artifacts and Dao Artifacts previously confiscated from the Red Sand Kingdom.

He operated the Spirit Devouring Secret Art to its maximum, guiding the pure Immortal Qi and Dao Qi from those unused resources to continuously pour into the six Third-Grade Dao Artifacts.

Once this batch of unused resources was completely absorbed, the six Dao Artifacts welcomed another upgrade, collectively achieving a breakthrough past the bottleneck, all reaching the level of Fourth-Grade Dao Artifacts.

According to the grading of Dao Artifacts, only powerhouses at the Immortal Emperor level, after condensing their Dao foundation, possess the ability to refine Fourth-Grade Dao Artifacts.

Yet, Fang Hong is currently only at the Cultivation level of Peak Immortal King, but he already holds six genuine Fourth-Grade Dao Artifacts.

This achievement was entirely due to the enhancement provided by the improved Spirit Devouring Secret Art. It must be said that the marvelous utility of this Secret Technique truly exceeds imagination.

Wielding these six Fourth-Grade Dao Artifacts, coupled with the immense Immortal Power converted from the twelve Great Dao Laws controlled by Fang Hong himself...

...and his formidable Divine Sense, which has long since reached the Immortal Emperor Realm, Fang Hong’s overall combat strength has now firmly reached the Immortal Emperor standard.

Ordinary Cultivators at the Early Stage Immortal Emperor are simply no match for Fang Hong.

The reason Fang Hong’s Divine Sense was able to breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor standard ahead of time, far surpassing Cultivators of the same realm...

...was partly because he Cultivated the supreme Spirit Refining Dao Techniques, "Soul Ascension Art."

On the other hand, it was inseparable from the day and night nourishment provided by the Fourth-Grade Dao Artifact, Soul Nurturing Pearl.

Only under this dual enhancement could his Divine Sense steadily improve at such an astonishing speed.

Currently, Fang Hong’s Cultivation has reached Immortal King Realm Perfection.

His comprehension of Dao Techniques is thorough, his self-created Dao Techniques techniques are varied and practical, and his six Dao Artifacts have all been tempered to the Fourth Grade.

All preparations for advancing to Immortal Emperor are basically complete.

The only thing still missing are the crucial Dao medicinal pills.

As long as he can prepare a sufficient quantity of Dao medicinal pills, he will immediately be able to assault the Immortal Emperor Realm.

It is worth mentioning that Su Shan’s Cultivation progress is not slow at all.

Like Fang Hong, she has also reached the realm of Peak Immortal King. She cultivates eight types of Great Dao simultaneously, possessing deep foundation, and her combat strength should similarly not be underestimated.

Furthermore, Su Shan also possesses the aptitude to cultivate the "Divine Calamity Devouring Technique" that Fang Hong cultivates.

At this moment, Fang Hong was staying in the alchemy room, frantically refining the Dao medicinal pills required to assail the Immortal Emperor.

For this attempt to assail the Immortal Emperor, Fang Hong needed to prepare two core Dao medicinal pills:

One type is a Dao medicinal pill specifically for replenishing Immortal Essence, and the other is a crucial medicinal pill named "Dao Condensation Pill."

Every time a major realm advancement occurs, it signifies that the Immortal Apertures within the body will undergo a major expansion.

During the crucial moment of breaking through the barrier, the expansion of the Immortal Apertures consumes massive amounts of Immortal Power, making it extremely likely for a state of Immortal Power depletion to occur.

At this time, Dao medicinal pills for replenishing Immortal Essence become critically important, serving as the fundamental guarantee for a successful breakthrough.

The Dao Lineage’s Scripture Pavilion houses many pill formulas for Dao medicinal pills that replenish Immortal Essence, such as the "Dao Replenishment Pill," "Dragon Oddity Pill," and "Yang Profound Pill."

These are all Third-Grade Dao medicinal pills verified by countless Cultivators, possessing gentle and pure medicinal properties, making them perfectly suited to assist in assaulting the Immortal Emperor.

Fang Hong estimated that based on his consumption during the breakthrough, refining over a hundred batches of these Third-Grade Dao medicinal pills should be enough to meet the need for Immortal Essence replenishment.

As for the "Dao Condensation Pill," it belongs to the Fourth-Grade Dao medicinal pills.

Just by hearing the name, one can guess its core function—assisting Immortal Kings in condensing their Dao foundation.

The Dao Condensation Pill can greatly increase the success rate of condensing the Dao foundation, making it an indispensable core medicinal pill during the process of advancing to Immortal Emperor.

Judging by Fang Hong’s current stock of immortal herbs, the materials for refining Third-Grade Dao medicinal pills like the "Dao Replenishment Pill" are quite sufficient and pose no problem.

However, the materials required to refine the Dao Condensation Pill are much rarer.

After checking the immortal herb inventory inside the years pearl, he found that five crucial immortal herbs were still missing, which made Fang Hong somewhat troubled.

Currently, there are only two feasible ways to gather these five immortal herbs:

One is to pay attention to the trade fairs held regularly within the city to see if these five immortal herbs or their corresponding seeds appear.

The second is to visit the Immortal Emperor Elders within the Dao Lineage to see if he can acquire or exchange for the necessary immortal herbs from them.

Just as Fang Hong was concentrating on alchemy, a message suddenly arrived via his Elder identity token:

An ancient sect ruin has appeared in the Burial Demon Mountain Range. All Elders and Inner Sect Disciples who wish to go on a trial should immediately gather at Shuhai Peak Plaza.

Departure will be precisely three hours later; those who are late will be left behind... "An ancient sect ruin has actually appeared in the Burial Demon Mountain Range!"

Fang Hong instantly grasped the core of the message, and a strong interest surged in his heart; his alchemy movements subconsciously stopped.

This message was personally issued by an Immortal Emperor Elder within the Dao Lineage—it was definitely not ordinary news.
