The whole world is against me
If a satellite were to scan a corner of the East China Sea at this moment, it would be astonished to discover that thousands of humans are swirling on the surface of the sea, with their bodies emitting colorful glows in varying degrees, making for a spectacular sight.
Fang Yun stood with his hands behind his back, sweeping his gaze across the thousands of cultivators. A faint smile played on his lips as he looked down at the crowd: "What a grand formation, which act are you performing now?"
Only to see in the midst of the cultivators, a red light flew out, and that person was none other than Taiyi Sect's Taishang Laozu, Taiyi True Person. This person is one of the three people who have reached the Separation of Gods stage in the cultivation world.
Taiyi True Man's whole body was fiery red as he sprinted forward, his skin and hair both showing a dark reddish hue, his eyes wide open in anger staring at Fang Yun.
"Fang Yun, return the precious Fire Cloud Chart of the Taiyi Sect!" The true person of Taiyi shouted angrily, his voice like a raging wind sweeping across the sea.
"Right! Hand over all the treasures you've plundered!"
"What about the Ling Xiao Treasure of the Ling Xiao Gate?"
These cultivators had more or less some intersections with Fang Yun, but their greatest common characteristic was that Fang Yun had treated injuries for all of them.
Their classics and laws were taken away by Fang Yun as their diagnostic gold.
Fang Yun would never force them, but rather based on their injuries or his own mood, conduct treatment with mutual consent.
It's just that many cultivators regret their promises after recovering, and at that time, Fang Yun naturally wouldn't be polite to them.
Facing the thousands of cultivators, Fang Yun's expression remained unchanged, with a faint smile still on his face: "Your magic treasures have all been refined by me, and as for your treasured manuals, they are all in my mind. Whoever thinks they have the ability can come and take them away."
Fang Yun waved his hand, and a seven-colored light flashed, a seven-colored lotus flower appeared in front of Fang Yun. This seven-colored lotus flower was refined from the essence of thousands of treasures, and the Taoist lines within it had merged the strengths of thousands of families.
Everyone who cultivates the truth saw the seven-colored lotus flower at that moment, and they all showed a look of shock, fear, or greed.
"You...you actually refined a divine artifact!!"
The seven-colored lotus flower floats in mid-air, its radiance dazzling, yet it captures the heart and soul, like a divine object, inspiring both reverence and longing.
"This is all thanks to your treasured artifacts and scriptures, which allowed me to obtain this divine instrument." Fang Yun chuckled: "Come on... let me see what kind of preparations you've made, you bunch of rabble."
"Don't be so smug!" Taiyi Zhenren rebuked in a loud voice, and a ball of flame appeared in his hand. Amidst the flames, a firebird was faintly visible, flapping its wings and letting out a cry, as if the sky itself was set ablaze.
"Hmph... It seems that the medical fee I collected last time was not enough, and Taiyi Gate actually has such a treasure." Fang Yun's eyebrows rose slightly as he gazed at the firebird, revealing a hint of surprise.
"This is a product of the creation of heaven and earth, the Fire Crow shot down by Hou Yi thousands of years ago. I, Taizhen, obtained it through the gate of Taiyi, refined it, and obtained this unparalleled treasure. Today, I will burn you to nothingness with the Xuanhuo of the Fire Crow!"
Taiyi True Man threw it out in anger, the Fire Crow brought a ball of mysterious fire and flew towards Fang Yun. The seawater below was already boiling under this ball of mysterious fire, and the entire sky seemed to be burning.
"The light of the firefly, also dares to compete with the bright moon!" Fang Yun's hand drew a Taoist pattern in the air, and the seven-colored lotus flower's radiance became even more magnificent. The lotus flower rapidly rotated and transformed into a giant mountain, directly crushing down towards Huo Ya.
On the surface, it was like a meteor falling from the sky, stirring up massive waves that reached the heavens. The lotus flower pushed aside trillions of cubic meters of seawater, while the firebird below let out a series of mournful cries, but it could not shake this mighty force.
Fang Yun's mouth curled up with a smile, and he reached out with an empty hand to grab a giant palm, picking up the seven-colored lotus flower and the fire crow together, pinching them in his palm.
"Haha...... I'll take this Huo Ya Xuan Huo for myself." Fang Yun burst out laughing and, without waiting for Tai Yi Zhen Ren to react, directly erased the Dao pattern on the Huo Ya Xuan Huo and stored it in his Baina bag.
The Taoist pattern is like a fingerprint, in the cultivation world, almost everything needs to use the Taoist pattern, whether it's refining equipment or refining elixirs, or even casting spells, and even cultivating, the Taoist pattern is indispensable.
Some Taoist symbols are unique and belong to a single cultivator, these types of symbols often appear in the later stages of artifact refinement, serving as identification that can prevent others from using them. However, if another cultivator deciphers the symbol or uses powerful cultivation to erase it, the artifact will fall into someone else's hands.
Some Taoist symbols are secretly transmitted and not revealed to the public, this type of symbol is often used for refining some rare and precious artifacts, or for making elixirs and spiritual medicines. Some other Taoist symbols are more popularized and are considered basic symbols in the cultivation world.
Taiyi Zhenren's face changed drastically, his chest tightened, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out. His face became even more ferocious: "You... you..."
Fang Yun intended to use this method to scare off the group of cultivators, and although Taiyi True Person's cultivation was powerful, in Fang Yun's eyes, it was not enough to be worried about.
There are just too many cultivators, even Fang Yun can't fully match them.
As expected by Fang Yun, these cultivators were already disheartened and scattered. Those who were intimidated by Fang Yun's overwhelming tactics were countless.
"Now that you're in our Extinction Formation, do you still think you can escape?"
It was Bai Yun Dao Ren who spoke, his cultivation equivalent to that of Tai Yi Zhen Ren, already in the later stage of separation from the divine, but facing the Xiu Zhen realm, the only one who had crossed the calamity in the later stage, he still seemed too small.
"What's the point of talking nonsense with him, let's just activate the Great Silence Array and see if he can still escape!" The Taiyi True Person's treasure was erased from his own Dao pattern, suffering heavy injuries, and his hatred for Fang Yun became even more apparent.
The Great Annihilation Formation is said to be as powerful as the Heavenly Tribulation, but it requires at least 10,000 cultivators in the Yuan Ying stage or above to set it up. At this moment, there are many cultivators on the surface of the sea, but they are far from reaching 10,000.
And they would rather drop their overall cultivation by a realm than spare Fang Yun's life.
"Hmph... it seems that you and I are sworn enemies, willing to lower your realm just to destroy me." Fang Yun still had a smiling face, although disaster was looming ahead, but he still didn't have a hint of despair, compared to the cultivators surrounding him, he seemed even more calm and composed.
"You've been tyrannical for a thousand years, relying on your medical skills to bully fellow practitioners, with countless crimes piled up. Today, even if I'm torn to pieces, I'll still eradicate your spirit!" Taizhen True Person roared in anger.
"Much talk is of no benefit, delay will give rise to changes, quickly activate the Great Silence Array..."
Some people can't wait and want to destroy Fang Yun. After all, Fang Yun has an extraordinary cultivation base that is unmatched in the world, and it's hard to guarantee that he won't have some kind of divine power to escape and ascend to heaven.
All cultivators have displayed their divine abilities, and the Great Silence Array has been activated. Everything within the array will be annihilated in an instant, even someone as powerful as Fang Yun cannot escape his fate.
"With so many of you accompanying me in death, I won't be at a loss," said Fang Yun with a smile.
"You think you can still escape from this grand formation of annihilation and come after us?"
"I won't be able to make it, but I've also set up a magnificent spiritual formation within this thousand-mile radius. I really want to see what you cultivators look like when you become drowned rats, haha..."
Everyone's face changed drastically, Fang Yun was actually burning jade and stone together, the Void Spirit Great Array would drain all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and restrict its own immortal energy. Setting up a thousand-mile Void Spirit Great Array, in the Cultivation Realm, only Fang Yun could do it.
According to their cultivation levels, they can be restricted by people with different cultivation levels. Fang Yun's cultivation is undoubtedly the highest in the field, which means that no one on the scene can escape.
Without the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and with his own immortal aura restricted, not to mention that in order to deceive the public, within this thousand-mile radius, many cultivators have set up the "Deceiving Heaven and Crossing the Sea" technique, creating a self-contained space within this thousand-mile radius, where outsiders cannot enter and insiders cannot leave.
Without the divine aura, they cannot dispel the deception of the heavenly sea, which means that they will all struggle in this turbulent giant wave like ordinary people, and die on the surface of the East Sea in the most ugly way.
Inside the Great Extinction Array, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth began to become turbulent. Every inch of air was like thousands of nuclear bombs exploding.
Fang Yun smiled and activated the Void Spirit Formation. Within this formation, even he couldn't release his immortal energy.
In fact, Fang Yun had never left himself a way out. He liked to use the simplest method to destroy all his enemies, even if it meant burning jade and stone together, he wouldn't hesitate.
The collision of energies caused Fang Yun's originally powerful physical body to instantly disintegrate.
His cultivation was strong, but he had not yet reached the point where his Golden Immortal body would be indestructible. His physical body had only reached the Half-Saint level. Only after passing through the Heavenly Tribulation could he achieve immortality and eternal existence, lasting for all eternity.
And in that moment of annihilation, his last glance fell upon those cultivators falling from the sky like raindrops, a smile of satisfaction spreading across his face.
It is enough for this life——
Fang Yun did not see that his life-bound treasure, the Hundred Generations Divine Lotus, suddenly burst out with a brilliant light of ten thousand zhang in the last moment, wrapping up Fang Yun's last wisp of spiritual consciousness and transforming into a beam of light that shot up into the sky.
The light pierced through the Great Void Array, entered the void, and disappeared. This flash was fleeting, far surpassing what the naked eye could see, and even Fang Yun hadn't anticipated it.
The Divine Lotus of the Hundred Sages is the culmination of Fang Yun's efforts over several hundred years, gathering the strengths of a hundred families and fusing the essence of thousands of treasured artifacts, taking the heavenly genius earth treasure, and refining it to perfection.
It is already the closest existence to the immortal artifact in the cultivation world, but it still has some shortcomings. That is, Fang Yun's own Dao heart is not yet complete, so the Hundred Years Divine Lotus has not been finally completed.
The so-called Tao heart can also be called the boundary, the Tao heart is like the full moon and deficiency, divided into initial glimpse, lower mystery, upper mystery, small completion, fragmented nirvana, glimpse of heaven, great completion, and perfection. Eight boundaries, if the Tao heart reaches perfection, it can become a holy soul, indestructible and immortal.
Fang Yun's cultivated Dao heart is the heavenly Dao of a hundred generations. Although it doesn't require reincarnation for a hundred generations, it still needs to go through countless worldly experiences and gain insight into one's own Dao heart from them.
These nine realms do not represent the level of cultivation, which is divided into six levels: gathering energy, condensing spirit, forming elixir, forming primordial infant, separating spirit, and crossing calamity. Crossing calamity is the peak; to break through, one must cross tribulation. If successful, it results in physical immortality; if not, both body and spirit are destroyed.
In the midst of obscurity, there is a will of heaven. At the moment when Fang Yun was annihilated, the Hundred Spirits Lotus suddenly evolved into a divine artifact on its own.
The difference between a sacred artifact and an ordinary magic treasure, apart from its heaven-destroying and earth-extinguishing power, lies mainly in the fact that a sacred artifact has its own spirituality, which will automatically protect its master even if it is not actively used.
But where the last ray of light that wrapped up Fang Yun's final wisp of spiritual intelligence went to, no one knew.
The Xiuzhen world was also severely damaged by this catastrophe, and fortunately, the "Great Demon Lord" Fang Yun was killed, and the Xiuzhen world returned to its former tranquility. However, many ancient artifacts and scriptures were lost due to this event.
The East China Sea has also become a forbidden zone for humans. Any ship or plane that passes through will disappear without exception, becoming another Bermuda.
That Deceitful Heaven and Earth Art was set up by the combined efforts of thousands of cultivators, and even after several thousand years have passed, it's likely that it still won't disappear.
