1042 Pantheon (1/2)

”That's right. I have an immortal body. How are you going to deal with me?!” Xu Lie roared. ”You don't have a chance with your cultivation, totem, and treasures!”

”Haha. Still acting strong!” Fang Yuan laughed. ”Every time you use Nirvana, it consumes the Eternal Flame. How many times can you do it with your cultivation?”

”Go!” Xu Lie's expression changed as flame wings spread out behind him.

”Do you know why I'm saying so much? Because you are already a dead man in my eyes,” Fang Yuan said lightly.

The next second, Saber Qi appeared out of nowhere and punctured the back of his skull.

Whoosh!

The Eternal Flame appeared and engulfed Xu Lie once again, but it seemed slightly weaker.

”Saber Realm?” Xu Lie's exclaimed uncertainly, even with a sense of despair in the flame.

”That's right. Saber Realm!”

Overwhelming Sword Qi formed a killing net and entered the flame.

'”Ahh!” Xu Lie screamed miserably.

Continuously being cutting, continuously dying, and continuously resurrecting—this kind of pain was more intense than a thousand swords piercing him at the same time.

”Forgive me… I'll give you the inheritance!

”No, you can't kill me… My master is… a barbarian Immortal!”

Words of begging and threats kept coming out from the flame, but Fang Yuan was unmoved.

Eventually, the black flame extinguished, leaving a trail of marks in place.

”Phoenix Nirvana is indeed a powerful peerless magical power. It actually lasted nine times!”

The blood-red rune vanished from Fang Yuan's forehead, and the third star closed. His lower arm was shaking. ”This body has reached its limit at the third star. Moreover, I can't maintain it for long…”

The third star of the Nine Star Pearl increased his strength eightfold. This meant his Materialization strength was comparable to the early Primordial Core realm!

His comprehension of the Nomological Laws of Saber had also reached the Saber Realm! The so-called 'Saber Realm' was a saber domain that had Saber Qi everywhere and anywhere inside!

These two aspects together propelled Fang Yuan's combat power to the peak of the Primordial Core realm.

Xu Lie was unfortunate to have met him, especially in a maze where he could not have escaped even if he wanted to.

”In fact, my body wouldn't be able to take it if he could endure another seven or eight times…”

Fang Yuan took two steps forward and dabbled in the ashes.

”This Xu Lie is an Immortal's disciple, so there'll be some trouble in the future. But in a battle over lucky chances, I have to kill him… He should have a lot of treasures on him, right?”

Even if the barbarians might not be proficient in alchemy and refinement, who was Xu Lie? He certainly had some good stuff on him!

”This is… some jade bottles, pill residue? Fragments of magic artifacts? Unfortunately, they are all damaged…”

Fang Yuan was feeling sorry for himself when he suddenly dug out something with the tip of his saber.

”If this can remain even after all the magic artifacts were damaged, it is absolutely something extraordinary!”

He picked up a page and found that it was made of an unknown golden material with a huge amount of information recorded in silver runes.

”It seems like a remnant page of some secret manual? The material is so special… Pantheon Enhancement Technique?” Fang Yuan's eyes brightened as he continued reading it. ”Incredible, whoever compiled this manual must be a terrifying existence who cultivated their totem to the pinnacle!”

”Totem! The 'innate aptitude' of the barbarians can hardly be changed, yet this existence actually developed something that can enhance the totem!”

Right! This Pantheon Enhancement Technique was actually a mystic technique to enhance the totem!

This mystic technique enhanced your own totem through plundering other totems!

Fang Yuan had not heard of such a mysterious method since he came to this world.

”Such a heaven-defying mystic technique is probably on par with the Nine Star Pearl.”

Fang Yuan thought about it. ”This Xu Lie is also someone with great providence. He managed to obtain such a mystic technique… Is it possible that he wasn't born with the Phoenix totem but obtained it through continuous plundering? It's very likely!”

Perhaps this was why Xu Lie's Phoenix totem was not at large success and why he wanted Dongmu Cai's greenwood dragon so badly.

”According to the 'Pantheon Enhancement Technique', even when plundering, it has to be compatible with your own totem. Xu Lie definitely wanted the wood element of the greenwood dragon to grow fire and make the flame of his Phoenix reach large success!
