From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 567 Fang Han Becomes a Demon and a Thief
The journey from Longyuan Province to the Feathered Immortal Sect was long, and a caravan of over a hundred people was traveling at an extremely fast speed.

This group was quite peculiar. Judging from their speed, they were the same group of people, and each of them was skilled in martial arts. They moved forward at an extremely fast pace, but almost everyone kept their distance from one of the carriages. It was a very simple-looking carriage without any luxurious decorations. If there was any special feature, it would be one word: huge!

The carriage, pulled by nine fierce black and yellow horses, was the size of a room and located in the center of the procession. However, everyone else seemed to be wary of the carriage, keeping a safe distance and forming a circle around it. Every day, Fang Qingxue would guard the carriage. If Fang Qingxue were alone, the journey would be much faster, but this time, she was leading over a hundred people to the Feathered Gate, so the pace was naturally much slower. It took them more than ten days to cover half the distance.

Along the way, Fang Qingxue's aura gradually changed from peaceful to gloomy. Now, the low pressure around her has affected the team. At first, Fang Qingwei could still exchange a few words with her, but now even Fang Qingwei is unwilling to get close. The reason is that her sister's aura is too strong, far beyond what a mere ninth-level physical body cultivator like herself can approach.

Moreover, she seemed to know why her sister's attitude was getting worse and worse; it was clearly influenced by her cousin, who had been in seclusion in the carriage.

Yes, Li Chengqian left without informing anyone, only claiming that he was in seclusion to comprehend supernatural powers. For the past ten days or so, Fang Qingxue has personally guarded the carriage, and no one has been able to get close.

But judging from my sister's attitude, could it be that my legendary cousin's seclusion wasn't going well? Or...?

She dared not think any further and instinctively moved away from the carriage.

Fang Qingxue sat cross-legged on the carriage, her face aloof, but the image of Li Chengqian kept flashing through her mind.

Where did my cousin go?

Why haven't they come back after so many days?

Did something happen?

in case……

Suddenly, as if sensing something, she turned around abruptly, only to find that Li Chengqian was already standing behind her.

"How are you, cousin? Did you miss me?"

Li Chengqian looked at Fang Qingxue with a smile and asked.

"Cousin, you're back?" Fang Qingxue's usually cold face softened as if the winter snow was just beginning to melt, revealing a hint of barely concealed joy.

"Everything that needed to be done has been done; you can leave now." Li Chengqian smiled and nodded, saying nothing more. Fang Qingxue didn't ask any further questions either.

When Li Chengqian emerged from seclusion, he was greeted with congratulations from the Fang family. The group's speed noticeably increased, and they returned to the Feathered Immortal Sect two days ahead of schedule.

Ascension to Immortality, Moon-Embracing Peak
Li Chengqian sat cross-legged in the secret chamber atop the peak, the Azure Mirror of Illusion floating above his head, its surface shimmering with clear light. He communicated with the mirror's spirit through his thoughts, while simultaneously activating the World Tree with all his might!
Wow!
The celestial energy, more than ten times richer than before, poured down like the Milky Way from the heavens. It was drawn from the celestial realm by the roots of the World Tree and was no longer directly poured into Li Chengqian's body. Instead, it was guided and continuously injected into the internal space of the Azure Realm Illuminating Mirror! The originally desolate void inside the mirror, where only the Weak Water surged, has now undergone earth-shattering changes!
Celestial energy surged in, transforming into a misty, pervasive fog. The once gloomy sky cleared, as if cleansed by the celestial energy. The mirror-like ground began to soften, radiating vibrant life, and in some places, tiny spiritual crystals imbued with celestial energy began to condense!
In just a few months, the interior of the Azure Mirror of Illumination has been transformed into a sacred place for cultivation, though not as vast as the Feathered Immortal Realm, but with an even greater concentration of immortal energy and a higher degree of manifestation of Daoist principles! Moreover, with the help of the mirror's light, Li Chengqian managed to adjust the internal time flow to three times that of the outside world!

Li Chengqian stood on the Weak Water, feeling the rich immortal energy and clear Dao principles of this place, and nodded in satisfaction.

From then on, Lanyue Peak also had its own little fairyland.

However, he did not intend to expose this matter; he only revealed it to Xu Wenyuan, Yuan Zhi, and Su Muyu, and then sent them into seclusion in the Mirror World.

After Li Chengqian's allocation of resources during this period, Yuanzhi and Su Muyu have reached the point where they can break through to the Divine Power Realm. Breaking through in this mirror world is far more efficient than outside. As for Xu Wenyuan, he is currently focused on stabilizing his realm.

A month later, which is three months later in the mirror world, the three emerged from seclusion one after another. Xu Wenyuan's magical power increased greatly, while the other two successfully entered the Divine Power Realm.

"Qingxue, the sect's affairs are settled, and the foundation is solid. It's time to head to the Five Elements Land, condense the Five Elements, and break through to the Unity Realm." After entrusting the affairs of Lanyue Peak to the three of them, Li Chengqian found Fang Qingxue, spread out the ancient map given to him by Hua Tiandu, and pointed to the area marked with the Barbarian Temple. "The entrance to the Five Elements Land is in the Barbarian Temple. There is the Great Five Elements Technique. Finding the entrance will not be difficult."

Fang Qingxue's eyes were bright. She also felt that her cultivation was already sufficient. If she wanted to break through to the Unity Realm, she would need the Five Elements to be perfected. Therefore, she did not object to Li Chengqian's suggestion.

Having made their decision, the two transformed into two streaks of light and headed towards the distant and dangerous wilderness.

————I am the dividing line————

Meanwhile, in the Guixu Sea, amidst a treacherous archipelago shrouded in mist.

Fang Han sat cross-legged in the main hall of a cave dwelling that had just changed hands. His body was filled with demonic energy, yet also carried a chilling killing intent. The Nine Aperture Golden Core in his chest had completely melted. The immense medicinal power not only helped him heal all his hidden injuries but also pushed his cultivation to the peak of the first level of the Divine Power Realm!
Before him floated an ancient scroll, the "Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs" scroll. Within the scroll, the phantom of the spirit Yan appeared and disappeared, uttering a deep voice: "Fang Han, you did well. This Yuanji Sanren has occupied this place for many years and has amassed quite a collection. Especially this 'Yuanji Qi Scripture,' which is an unparalleled divine power of the ancient Qi path, but it will greatly benefit your understanding of the circulation of magical power and the enhancement of your foundation."

Fang Han opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and piercing, revealing a composure and ruthlessness beyond his years. "Yan, you're right. Leaving the Fang family has actually given me the opportunity to rise above my circumstances, like a dragon entering the vast ocean or a tiger entering the deep forest! This Guixu Sea, a place where the strong prey on the weak, is the perfect hunting ground for me to rapidly increase my strength!"

He killed Yuanji Sanren, who was ranked thirty-fourth among the original forty great bandits, not only seizing his lair but also taking over some of his power and resources. Relying on the mystery of the Jiao Fu Huang Quan Diagram and the solid foundation brought by the Nine Aperture Golden Elixir, coupled with his own unwavering will and combat talent, Fang Han quickly gained a foothold in this chaotic sea area and called himself the Impermanent Bandit, replacing Yuanji Sanren in the rankings.

As for why he's not called the Reincarnation Thief, it's naturally because that title is too suggestive, and he can't grasp it right now.

"The next step is to find more resources and break through to the True Qi Realm as soon as possible! Those higher-ranking bandits and overseas rogue cultivators... their treasures will all be stepping stones for me, Fang Han!" Fang Han clenched his fist, his ambition burning like wildfire.
