Chapter 1059: News
This female warrior was the Flybarb tribe’s Brutal Moon!
The way she looked at Fang Yuan was indescribable.
With her talent, she had worked extremely hard to get to where she was. Back when they were still training at the tribe, she even surpassed Fang Yuan.
But unexpectedly, after the Beichen Ceremony, he was selected to enter the Barbarian Palace. And despite being only at the Materialization realm, he could fight a Primordial Core cultivator, while she had to rely on him to rescue her.
“Junior Brother Fang Yuan!” Yan Luo walked over with an equally shocked expression. “You’re actually capable of fighting against Golden Core cultivators? Even though the outside Golden Core is slightly inferior to our Primordial Core, you’re only at Materialization…”
“Haha… It’s only because my comprehension of the nomological laws is slightly better… Moreover, Brutal Thunder and the rest contributed too!” Fang Yuan laughed it off.
“Yes, that ten-man formation is indeed comparable to Primordial Core and quite impressive!” Yan Luo acknowledged. “How many military merits do I need for you to teach me this?”
“Since Senior Brother wants to learn it, I’ll gift it to you.” Fang Yuan waved his hands, not minding at all.
As long as it was a powerful force, it would always have one or two types of combined assault formations.
Fang Yuan had dug this one out from the Pantheon Palace. In Immortal Hong Chen’s collection, it merely counted as ordinary.
The truly amazing formation was the one back at the barbarian camp that the ordinary soldiers were practicing. That was a true ten-thousand-man combined formation! Incomparable and formidable!
“Without having experience on the battlefield, any previous rankings or talents are all for nothing… True experts are born from the most vicious of wars!”
At the thought of something, Yan Luo said emotionally, “On this battlefield, Junior Brother isn’t the only one at the Materialization realm who is this outstanding. Someone killed a Primordial Core cultivator while being at the Materialization realm. He could even escape from the clutches of an Apotheosis expert!”
“What?” Fang Yuan was surprised. “Why haven’t I heard of him?”
“Haha…” Yan Luo chuckled. “Because of how talented he is, he has been cultivating in secret. When people saw how brilliant he was on the battlefield, an Immortal Patriarch accepted him as a disciple, and he has been living in seclusion ever since! Only I and a few others have witnessed his squad personally and can verify his talent… He truly has the potential to become an Immortal in the future!”
“There’s actually such a monster?” Fang Yuan’s eyes widened. “But we better leave this place quickly. We can talk more on the way back!”
“Right!” Staying at one place on the battlefield for a long time was indeed dangerous. Those three Golden Core Venerables were likely to bring other smaller squads over, so Yan Luo nodded swiftly. “Let’s talk after we return!”
Because of how big the Hundred Thousand Mountains was, it was not too surprising for one or two exceptional talents to emerge every now and then. However, Fang Yuan was quite interested, so he continued asking.
“That youth calls himself ‘Bamboo’ and was originally only a ten-man squad leader, but I personally witnessed it… During one of the battles, his totem materialized, and he easily slaughtered an enemy Golden Core cultivator!” Yan Luo replied honestly.
“I wonder what his materialization is?” Fang Yuan asked.
“I didn’t see it properly. Its body was like a snake, and its head was like a human with only one eye. A prominent light shone, and that Primordial Core cultivator died… After that, an Apotheosis realm powerhouse was furious and wanted to kill him, but his body released waves of water that allowed the youth to hold on until the arrival of a patriarch…” Yan Luo’s eyes were slightly distant.
Is it the… Torch Dragon? Fang Yuan guessed.
In his previous life, he had heard records of that materialization. “The Torch Dragon has a human’s face and a snake’s body, created day and night by opening and closing its eye, and created seasonal winds by breathing.”
“This materialization is definitely first grade! But nobody knows what it actually is…” Beside him, Yan Luo exclaimed in admiration. “He was accepted as a disciple by Immortal Brutal Child and is a future Immortal, not someone we can compare to…”
Fang Yuan knew clearly that some terrifyingly strong materializations were so rare that there were no records among the barbarians.
For example, his own Clam Dragon might have appeared for the first time in history as well.
This Torch Dragon was also a deduction from his previous life’s memories.
Regardless, this was undoubtedly a first-grade totem. In addition to that terrifying Innate Magical Power, the Immortals were certainly going to notice him. Otherwise, why would there be expectations of him becoming an Immortal?
If that Bamboo really possesses the Torch Dragon materialization and that Innate Magical Power, there’s a high chance it’s related to the Nomological Laws of Time!
At the thought, Fang Yuan’s eyes lit up.
However, a Torch Dragon with its Innate Magical Power awakened was not to be trifled with. Moreover, he had an Immortal backing him.
At this moment, he was merely digesting and remembering this news.
Before he reached the Primordial Core realm and large success in the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws, he did not have the capital to poke his nose everywhere.
…
Elsewhere, the three Golden Core Venerables gathered together.
“We were going to finish them off, but things went off track because of a bunch of Foundation Establishment cultivators… Big Bro, we can’t let them off like this!” shouted the youngest, Venerable Wang Qiao.
“Big Bro, what do you think?” The slightly calmer Wang He looked at their big brother.
“That barbarian youth is merely at the Foundation Establishment stage, which is also their Materialization realm, yet he could comprehend Saber Realm. His comprehension ability is no small matter. He could even match my attacks and hurt Third Brother. He truly is a genius!” Wang Tong analyzed. “And we can’t underestimate that formation either! Just the three of us might not be enough to take them down, so we should get the elders to help us!”
Both sides agreed that there was no need for Immortals to intervene in such confrontations.
However, powerhouses at the Apotheosis realm, also known as the Nascent Soul stage, could step in every now and then.
To these Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators, a Nascent Soul elder on the battlefield was an existence that they did not want to offend.
As long as Immortals did not show up, they would be the overlords of the battlefield!
At this thought, Wang Tong and the other two took out a jade pendant communications magic artifact. “Elder Yellow Scorpion! We came across a talented barbarian at the Materialization realm with incredible Saber Qi that could match Golden Core!”
“Another one?” From the magic artifact, a flabbergasted voice came. “These barbarians are truly blessed by the heavens. Only a few days ago, an exceptional totem suspected to possess the Nomological Laws of Time appeared, and today, yet another genius with exceptional comprehension appeared! What a pity… what a pity…”
Wang Tong and the two others remained silent, naturally knowing what this elder was feeling regretful about.
Regarding barbarians with talent in comprehension, the outside sects were quite interested in them. In the past, when they found such a genius, they would directly abduct them to train as disciples of their sect.
But now, on this battlefield, they had irreconcilable differences.
“In that case, report your position and the direction the enemies escaped in. I’ll head there to take a look. Killing a genius like this will be beneficial to us!”
Hearing what Elder Yellow Scorpion said, Wang Tong and the other two were pleased. “Many thanks, Elder… We are at…”
…
“Gold Ingot… what do you think?” On the way back, Fang Yuan touched the white jade ring hanging around his neck.
Ever since Fang Yuan knew that he was participating in this war, he hung the white jade ring around his neck. With his clothes covering, even Immortals would not casually use their spiritual will to scan him, significantly reducing the possibility of exposure.
“You’re talking about that peerless genius? Extraordinary aptitude, but his comprehension ability is far from yours!” Gold Ingot dared not casually reveal his spiritual will and could only communicate with Fang Yuan secretly.
“What if I want to capture him to become my alternative?” Fang Yuan’s eyes flashed.
Gold Ingot remained silent, as he also knew about Fang Yuan’s clone plan.
“To be honest… I don’t recommend it. Based on the previous descriptions, that Immortal Brutal Child treasures that disciple a lot, meaning he’s even more important than Xu Lie… If not for this war, you’d basically have no chance!”
Moments later, Gold Ingot’s voice came. “You would be taking a great risk and offending an Immortal. Would it be worth it? More importantly, you don’t even have the slightest clue about a clone mystic technique. Even if that peerless genius appeared tied up in front of you, you wouldn’t be able to do anything with him.”
In his opinion, Fang Yuan’s actions of endangering himself in search of a clone technique were simply stressing the incidental over the fundamental.
“You don’t understand!” Fang Yuan looked solemn.
The Illusion Realm’s nomological laws had benefited him a lot just from his current level of comprehension. And the Nomological Laws of Time were the same level as the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws, so he could not let it go even more.
If both sets of nomological laws finally sublimated and then combined to become the Universe Space-Time Great Dao, this power would be beyond the wildest imaginations of even a Demon God!
Obviously, he did not want to let an opportunity like this slip away!
“However, I have to say that given your current cultivation base, hidden cards… if you want to abduct someone under the eyes of an Immortal, it will be extremely difficult!” Gold Ingot warned at the end.
“I know. Before I’m absolutely confident, I won’t act! As for a clone technique, I’ll continue working hard to look for one!”
Fang Yuan heaved a long sigh.
He was quite confident that the youth named Bamboo’s totem was the Torch Dragon!
If he missed out on this opportunity, he might not find a better one even if he obtained a clone technique in the future.
Even with his Pantheon Enhancement Technique, he needed a fulcrum to transform into a dragon!
“For that, I have to prepare ahead of time!” Fang Yuan was determined. “Ultimately, the key is to look for clone techniques. If I need to create a body out of nothing or use some treasures, it would be problematic. I just want it to have a barbarian totem so that I can use the Pantheon Enhancement Technique to raise its aptitude. But the best method would still be those that can directly split the Essence Soul and seize a body…”
…
While he was deep in thought, he merged his team with Yan Luo’s team and retreated swiftly.
Throughout the journey, they were incredibly jittery.
“Hmm?” After spreading his spiritual will, Fang Yuan detected another team. “Another small team of ten led by a Primordial Core cultivator. They’re barbarian troops. Beichen Yan and Bei Tangman are also among them! Looks like they just came out?”
One group just came out while they returned, so they coincidentally met.
Yan Luo and Fang Yuan saw a core disciple of the Holy Mountain bringing Beichen Yan and the rest out. He looked at them in a slightly provocative manner. “Isn’t this Yan Luo and Fang Yuan? Why are you in such a sorry state?”
