At this moment, Fang Hong’s Dao Heart was formed; he had officially become a true Immortal Emperor powerhouse!

Looking across the entire Immortal Realm, an Immortal Emperor powerhouse was already a hegemon of a region, worthy of being called a top-tier expert in the Immortal Realm!

Fang Hong looked up at the high sky; the final hurdle of advancing to Immortal Emperor, the most dangerous "Tribulation of the Broken Heart," was about to descend.

The Tribulation of the Broken Heart was one of the most dangerous Heavenly Tribulations on a Cultivator’s path of advancement.

Heaven would descend with overwhelming tribulation force.

Its true purpose was to completely crush the Cultivator’s Dao Heart, making them lose the courage to move forward in extreme fear.

They would be trapped in place for a lifetime, never daring to step into a higher realm again.

However, Fang Hong’s Dao Heart was one of pressing forward without fear of any obstacles, refining all hindrances between heaven and earth, solely to seek that immortal and indestructible eternal Dao.

Even if Heaven blocked him, he had no fear; he would fight for it.

Fang Hong’s gaze was firm; without the slightest hesitation, he flew toward the high sky, facing the incoming Tribulation of the Broken Heart.

High in the sky, terrifying sinister winds howled, thick bolts of Heavenly Thunder rolled continuously in the clouds, and raging Heavenly Fire descended from the sky.

The Three Calamities appeared once again!

They easily penetrated the space shrouded by the years pearl, pouring down from the high sky like a waterfall, smashing fiercely onto Fang Hong.

Fang Hong could clearly feel that the power of this Tribulation of the Broken Heart was actually more than a hundred times stronger than the Dao Extinguishing Tribulation he faced when advancing to Immortal Emperor previously!

If it were an ordinary Immortal Emperor powerhouse, even just touching a trace of the tribulation force would likely result in being torn to pieces instantly.

Even their Divine Soul would be hard to preserve, directly turning to ashes!

"Come!"

Facing such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation, Fang Hong was not the least bit afraid; instead, his blood boiled, and his expression was incomparably excited.

With a shout, the Devouring Tribulation Divine Art within his body was instantly pushed to the limit.

A faint black halo appeared around his body, preparing to devour all this destructive tribulation force.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

A series of earth-shattering roars echoed in the high sky; the terrifying power of the Three Calamities instantly drowned Fang Hong’s figure completely.

In those sky-covering tribulation clouds and tribulation force, Fang Hong’s traces could no longer be seen.

Suddenly, a burst of ten-thousand-foot golden light erupted from the center of the tribulation force, forcefully tearing through the surging power of the Three Calamities.

Fang Hong’s figure reappeared unscathed, without even a trace of injury on his body.

Under the full operation of the Devouring Tribulation Divine Art, those originally highly destructive Three Calamities’ tribulation forces were gradually resolved and tamed.

They turned into colorful rays of light, merging into Fang Hong’s body, where he absorbed them all to temper his physical body.

Just like that, the Three Calamities in the high sky continued to descend.

Each wave was more violent than the last, and the power became increasingly terrifying, swearing to crush Fang Hong completely.

But every attack was skillfully resolved by Fang Hong using the Devouring Tribulation Divine Art; not only was he not harmed, but he even turned the tribulation force to his own use.

And Fang Hong’s physical body strength, under the repeated tempering of these Three Calamities’ tribulation forces, increased crazily at a very fast speed, becoming more and more formidable...

Days passed, a full three months of time.

Fang Hong remained in the high sky, confronting the Tribulation of the Broken Heart, continuously absorbing and refining the tribulation force.

Finally, when the last bit of tribulation force was devoured by him, the dark clouds, Heavenly Thunder, and Heavenly Fire in the high sky gradually dissipated.

The Tribulation of the Broken Heart completely vanished from the sky.

And Fang Hong had successfully passed the Tribulation of the Broken Heart, officially becoming a true Immortal Emperor powerhouse!

High in the sky, Fang Hong couldn’t help but look up and roar.

Ten-thousand-foot golden light erupted from his body, dazzling and brilliant; a powerful aura belonging to an Immortal Emperor swept out, causing heaven and earth to shake.

After three months of tempering by the Heavenly Tribulation, the Devouring Tribulation Divine Art within Fang Hong’s body also successfully broke through the bottleneck, officially reaching the sixth layer.

The sixth layer of the Devouring Tribulation Divine Art meant that Fang Hong’s physical body strength had now reached the Late Stage Immortal Emperor level!

Not just his physical body, Fang Hong’s Divine Sense realm also broke through to the Late Stage Immortal Emperor level during this closed-door cultivation.

Fang Hong slowly withdrew his aura; at this moment, he felt unprecedentedly powerful.

As long as he didn’t encounter a Heavenly Venerable powerhouse, in this Immortal Realm, he could almost say he was fearless.

Subsequently, Fang Hong flickered and returned to the secret chamber.

Now that his cultivation had greatly increased and his strength had skyrocketed, it was time to re-temper all the Dao Artifacts on his person.

Let the power of these Dao Artifacts keep up with his own realm.

Especially the demon soul banner; last time in the Ancient Demon Realm, he had accumulated a huge number of ancient demon souls.

As long as he could completely refine these ancient demon souls, the grade of the demon soul banner would definitely skyrocket...

In the following days, Fang Hong entered closed-door cultivation again in the Immortal Cave; this closed-door cultivation lasted for a full year.

During this time, Fang Hong re-tempered every Dao Artifact on his person one by one, striving to let each Dao Artifact exert its maximum power.

First was the demon soul banner, which did not disappoint Fang Hong.

After refining all tens of thousands of ancient demon souls and supplementing them with repeated tempering by the power of the Dao, the demon soul banner advanced again, becoming a tenth-grade dao artifact!

A tenth-grade dao artifact was the pinnacle among Dao Artifacts, having reached the highest grade of Dao Artifacts, on the same level as the Demon Gourd.

After the demon soul banner advanced, the aura it exuded became even more sinister and terrifying, and its power was incomparable to before.

As for the soul severing sword, fire cloud gourd, Swift Wind Wings, nirvana divine thunder sword, and Soul Nurturing Pearl, after being tempered by Fang Hong’s power of the Dao, they all advanced to ninth-grade Dao Artifacts.

Although they hadn’t reached the highest level of tenth-grade, their power was much stronger than before.

As long as Fang Hong’s realm could improve a little more and accumulate enough power of the Dao, he would be able to refine them all into tenth-grade dao artifacts.

There was also the years pearl, which Fang Hong re-tempered again.

The years pearl successfully advanced from a first-grade Dao Artifact to a fifth-grade Dao Artifact, and its power was greatly enhanced.

In one year of the outside world, the years pearl could accelerate the growth of immortal herb by fifty thousand years.

The years pearl was quite special; the essence of this Dao Artifact was closely related to the Great Dao of Time, and it could only be tempered and upgraded by relying on the power of the Great Dao of Time.

However, the Great Dao of Time had always been one of the most difficult Daos to cultivate; with Fang Hong’s current cultivation and Dao attainments, he could only temper it to the fifth-grade level despite his best efforts.

But Fang Hong was not discouraged by this; as long as he persisted in his cultivation, one day, he would definitely be able to temper the years pearl into a tenth-grade dao artifact.

By that time, the acceleration ability of the years pearl for immortal herb would reach the limit, and cultivating ten-thousand-year immortal herb overnight would no longer be a problem.

On the day the closed-door cultivation ended, Fang Hong walked out of the Immortal Cave on the small island, unfurled the Swift Wind Wings on his back, and directly escaped into the void, continuing his journey toward the Sea of Death.
