Fang Xiu's manipulation of time to lock onto his target was as slow as a small horse pulling a large cart; even an ordinary person could easily dodge it. However, Zhao Wuji remained kneeling in place and did not sense the power of time, so he was naturally caught in the attack.
This led to the shocking scene that occurred earlier, which stunned everyone.
In the midst of the silence, Fang Xiu slowly spoke: "Continue."
Everyone then seemed to snap out of their daze, and Yun Qingwu quickly called out, "Next."
One of the Celestial Emperors hurriedly took out a gift and carefully presented it to the True God, not daring to make the slightest unnecessary move.
The grand Buddhist ceremony, in which all the immortals came to pay homage, proceeded in this oppressive atmosphere.
An hour later, the ceremony ended, the immortals dispersed, and Fang Xiu made a fortune.
......
......
In Xuanyue Palace.
Fang Xiu counted his harvest alone. There were no fewer than five hundred rare and precious herbs, including some top-tier immortal medicines. Although most of these herbs were used to treat injuries, especially to heal the soul, rather than to enhance cultivation, every rare and precious herb contained a vast amount of energy.
It's just a bit of a waste to use rare and precious materials for healing injuries to improve one's cultivation.
The Kunlun maggot was even more excited than Fang Xiu when it saw these rare treasures, as if they were its own. This was understandable, since it had been locked up in the palace on Kunlun Mountain and had never seen much of the world.
"My lord, I never imagined that you could make those Immortal Emperors bow down and obediently offer up their treasures with just a tremor of your body. This old servant is truly in awe of you."
"Are you done talking?"
"That's all."
"Then get lost."
"Yes, my lord."
Fang Xiu casually picked up a thousand-year-old Heavenly Origin Fruit, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it. It melted in his mouth, and a rich and sweet fruity aroma permeated his heart and soul. Accompanied by an extremely pure torrent of energy, it spread to his limbs and bones.
He immediately activated the Spirit Circulation Technique from the Void Moon Scripture, and began frantically absorbing the medicinal power of the Thousand-Year Heavenly Origin Fruit.
Its body was like a hungry demon that had been starving for years, greedily devouring the energy brought by the medicine.
However, a moment later, as the medicine entered his body, it seemed to have offended another extremely evil and violent power. That power was the power that Fang Xiu had obtained by devouring countless strange things. It was inherently incompatible with the power brought by this rare and precious material, and the two powers began to collide within his body.
Suddenly, Fang Xiu felt a pain as if his body were being pierced by thousands of steel needles, but he remained calm.
"Pain absorption".
In the blink of an eye, the pain from the impact of the force was easily absorbed.
After a while, the medicinal power of the Thousand-Year Heavenly Origin Fruit gradually weakened, so Fang Xiu took another rare and precious herb to maintain its medicinal power and neutralize the strange force.
He knew very well that if he wanted to break through to the sixth rank and condense an immortal body, he had to neutralize the strange power and bring it to a delicate balance. But the strange power was both his strength and his weakness. The strange power that had given him great strength in the past was now causing the barrier to the sixth rank to be blocked because he had absorbed too much strange power.
If it weren't for this time impersonating a true god and obtaining a large number of rare and precious materials, it would have taken countless years of hard work to break through this barrier.
Time passed second by second, and Fang Xiu was immersed in cultivation, frantically consuming rare and precious herbs as if they were free.
It's like a cow chewing on a peony—a complete waste.
Several days have passed in the blink of an eye.
As promised, the clear clouds and mist brought the moon reflected in the well on the night of the full moon. It was a bowl of well water in which the bright moon was reflected.
Fang Xiu accepted the Moon in the Well and sent it away, then immersed himself in cultivation once again.
Time flies like water, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Within this month, he had used up most of the rare and precious materials, leaving only a few top-tier treasures such as the Elixir of Ten Thousand Medicines. The two powers within his body had finally begun to balance, but there was still a long way to go before they were perfectly balanced.
However, he stopped cultivating because he found that as the two forces grew stronger within his body, it became increasingly difficult for him to control his cultivation, and he had died several times due to the clash of energies.
Faced with such a thorny situation, he thought it best to ask the Kunlun Maggot, who possessed the memories of many powerful beings.
"Kunlun maggots".
"This old servant is here."
"I'll give you the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to resolve the energy clash."
Kunlun Maggot: "..."
He found that following a master like Fang Xiu was truly exhausting. Why should subordinates be expected to do things that you yourself cannot do?
You never consider the difficulty of the task when assigning it; you just dump it on your subordinates, and if they can't do it, they get punished. Damn it, do you really think I'm omnipotent? If I could do everything, would I need you to be here giving orders?
That's what I thought, but I still had to do the task assigned by my master.
The Kunlun maggot racked its brains and finally came up with a solution.
"My lord, why not try the Enlightenment Stone?"
Fang Xiu frowned slightly: "Isn't the Enlightenment Stone used to comprehend laws and decrees?"
"No, comprehending the laws is just one way to use the Enlightenment Stone. Its essence is to make the user's mind clear and their thoughts focused, so that they can enter a state of high concentration and single-mindedness in enlightenment."
The energy clashes because you cannot control the two forces, but by entering a state of enlightenment with the Enlightenment Stone, in a state of high concentration and selflessness, your precise control over the forces will be greatly enhanced.
Following the advice of the Kunlun Maggot, Fang Xiu took out the broken Enlightenment Stone and covered it with the power of time to help restore it.
However, even after his spiritual energy was exhausted, the Enlightenment Stone only recovered a little bit, which shows that the Enlightenment Stone probably existed for a very long time.
