Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1909 - 1891: Are You Still Worried About Me?

How could Feng Lun have known that he was simply worrying needlessly? At this moment, Fang Yan was busy with other matters in his cave dwelling and had no time to bother with those insignificant clowns.

The task Fang Yan had at hand was extremely complex. He needed to resolve the conflict between the Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art and the Nine Ice Divine Control Technique. It must be noted that these are two cultivation techniques with completely different attributes, and the difficulty in merging them is tremendous. The only reason Fang Yan stood a chance was because of the foundational knowledge passed down by his true self, Lin Feng. Otherwise, no matter how formidable Fang Yan’s strength was, there would be no possibility of success.

The reason for undertaking such a task was because Fang Yan could sense that those Taoists were about to return, and the battle with Fang Pu was impending. He didn’t want to enter the fight with Fang Pu carrying a host of issues in his body. Although he could defeat Fang Pu, doing so might expose his trump cards. Thus, the wisest course of action was to thoroughly resolve his internal problems.

Inside the cave dwelling, half of Fang Yan’s body appeared as flames, while the other half as ice, an eerie sight. His cave was divided into extremes: one half resembled a fiery hell, while the other half seemed like an icy prison. Fang Yan himself was the conduit between the ice and the flames.

Infuse the power of ice into the area of extreme yang, drawing extreme yang true fire into the source of ice...

Silently, following Lin Feng’s inherited method, Fang Yan subtly prepared for fusion. This process was fraught with danger, akin to setting off firecrackers next to a pile of explosives. A single misstep, and Fang Yan could be blown to pieces by the rampant energies. Fortunately, Fang Yan had the assistance of Extreme Cold Ice Fire, a Heaven and Earth Strange Fire, without which this endeavor would have been impossible.

Anyone witnessing Fang Yan’s actions would exclaim he was crazy, for only a madman would attempt such a thing. It was practically courting death. Even an Earth Immortal ancestor would likely not dare to do it; how could Fang Yan not be seeking death with such actions!

Though the process was perilous, Fang Yan did not abandon it. If the two techniques could successfully merge, the yin and yang within him would harmonize, leaving no hidden dangers. His attacks would become truly effortless, bringing significant benefits. Thus, Fang Yan could not relinquish the fusion due to danger.

Completely focused on fusion, Fang Yan ignored everything else around him, not considering what kind of shock integrating the Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art and the Nine Ice Divine Control Technique would bring him...

In the blink of an eye, three more days passed.

During these days, Qin Kun and Wu Shan, having nothing else to do, solely focused on cultivation. To them, they had amassed adequate fighting skills and techniques. Their sole deficit was in their realm; their power level was too low. If they could break through to the Human Immortal Realm, given their current abilities, few in that realm’s disciple rank would be their match. Their current disadvantage lay there.

On the evening of the third day, the other Taoists of the Divine Sword Sect returned. After briefly greeting the Sect Master and the elders, they retired to their respective abodes to rest. However, one person acted differently. Under the cover of darkness, this individual approached Fang Yan’s cave dwelling, shot a fierce glance, and then left.

It was none other than Fang Zheng’s brother, Fang Pu, ranked ninth among the Divine Sword Sect’s ten Taoists.

On the journey back, he had received a transmission from his father, Fang Tianhan, about what had happened to his brother. He was livid upon discovering that Fang Yan had killed his brother, and as the elder brother, he could not overlook this feud. So he planned to confront Fang Yan immediately upon his return.

However, upon reaching the outside of Fang Yan’s abode, he reconsidered the idea of challenging him immediately. If Fang Yan could defeat Wu Chen, then killing Fang Yan might not be feasible, making it inappropriate to act now. He would have to be thoroughly prepared to deliver a killing blow before confronting Fang Yan...

Seven days later, inside Fang Yan’s cave dwelling.

By this time, the cold and flames had vanished from inside Fang Yan’s abode, leaving it as if nothing had ever happened. Suddenly, Fang Yan opened his eyes, and an overwhelming aura burst forth, causing his dwelling to tremble and almost fall apart!

Indeed, it was finally a success.

Fang Yan’s mouth curled into a smile; he was genuinely delighted. After enduring innumerable hardships during these days, he finally successfully merged the two cultivation techniques. With no more conflicts present, he could now freely use any technique without issues, and the power of each was significantly stronger than before!

With a flick of his hand, a small sphere of light condensed in his palm, emitting an imposing heat. Another flick produced a tiny ice flower, seamlessly transitioning between the two without pause, this effortless control making Fang Yan feel quite at ease.

Moreover, something unexpected occurred to Fang Yan: after the fusion, his strength was almost breaking through to the Human Immortal Realm. Even if he wanted to suppress it further, he couldn’t, leaving Fang Yan at a loss. Originally, he intended to suppress his Gang Qi for a while, allowing it to solidify more. This way, upon reaching the Human Immortal Realm, his control over Gang Qi would surpass anyone else’s, even enabling a fight against Earth Immortal powerhouses.

Well, I’ll suppress it for as long as I can.

Fang Yan sighed and then exited his cave. However, what he hadn’t anticipated was encountering Song He as soon as he stepped out. This surprised Fang Yan, as it was evident Song He had been waiting outside for quite some time, but Fang Yan didn’t know the reason for Song He seeking him.

"Fang Yan, you’ve finally come out! I’ve been waiting for three days!" Song He quickly said as he saw Fang Yan. He genuinely had been waiting for three days, not expecting Fang Yan to appear only now, causing him great anxiety!

"What happened?" Fang Yan asked, puzzled, truly unsure of what had transpired.

"Fang Yan, Fang Pu has returned, and it seems he plans to act against you. He hasn’t appeared all these days, which is unusual, and from the information I’ve gathered, Fang Pu seems to be up to something. If I’m not mistaken, it likely concerns you." Song He spoke with a serious expression, aware of the gravity of the situation. Though both Fang Pu and Wu Chen were Taoists, their skills differed vastly. Since Fang Yan had already exposed many attack methods, should Fang Pu truly make a move against Fang Yan, it might lead to trouble. Hence, he felt compelled to warn Fang Yan.

"Fang Pu has returned? It’s fine; there’s no need to worry," Fang Yan smiled, dismissing Song He’s concern. He was waiting for Fang Pu’s return, intending to find the right moment to kill him and become a Taoist. Once he achieved that status, he’d enter the true inner circle, which was beneficial to him, leaving nothing to worry about.

"Fang Yan, I think you should be more cautious. You’re at the peak of the Heaven Flipping Realm and that’s a considerable disadvantage. Meanwhile, Fang Pu is ranked fifth among Taoists, with ever-changing methods. I dare say two Wu Chens may not match Fang Pu. So, you must exercise caution and not underestimate him. If he challenges you, I suggest not responding; go seek Elder Shi instead."

Seeing Fang Yan’s relaxed demeanor, Song He became anxious. He genuinely didn’t want anything to happen to Fang Yan. Though Fang Yan possessed extraordinary strength, he was, after all, at the Heaven Flipping Realm peak, not yet a Human Immortal. Yes, Fang Yan defeated Wu Chen, but facing Fang Pu was a different matter. It seemed Fang Pu had gained some opportunity during a mission, greatly enhancing his power, which was undoubtedly unfavorable for Fang Yan.

"You truly don’t need to worry. Pretend nothing happened. I’m not underestimating the enemy. Let me tell you, I’ve been waiting for him. No matter how formidable he is, he can’t flip the heavens. I’m speaking with absolute confidence. When I went to the Ice Abyss with Qin Kun and Wu Shan, both have advanced to the late stage of the Heaven Flipping Realm, while I’ve remained stuck. Don’t you find that curious?"

Observing Song He, Fang Yan smiled. He knew that Song He genuinely cared for him. But now, Fang Yan possessed too many means. No matter how formidable Fang Pu was, Fang Yan could have the Redflame Dragon Wolf Beast crush him without revealing himself; hence, nothing could go wrong for Fang Yan. If something were to happen, it would be to Fang Pu.

"Ah...this..." Listening to Fang Yan, Song He stood stunned. He hadn’t considered that issue before. But now that Fang Yan mentioned it, he realized there indeed was something amiss. From the time Fang Yan had entered the Divine Sword Sect, his strength had soared rapidly. By earlier standards, he should have reached the Human Immortal Realm already. Yet his two juniors had advanced to the late stage of the Heaven Flipping Realm, while Fang Yan remained at its peak. That indeed seemed fishy.

Suddenly, he looked at Fang Yan, understanding what he meant perhaps for the first time...

"I’ve long been ready to break through to the Human Immortal Realm, just waiting to firm my foundation for immense future benefits. If I wished, I could break through anytime. Now, do you still worry about me?" Fang Yan smiled at Song He. He knew Song He was a decent person and didn’t want him worrying anymore.

As Fang Yan’s words sank in, Song He snapped back to reality. Given Fang Yan’s astonishing combat prowess, should Fang Yan ascend to the Human Immortal Realm, no one within that realm could match him. So what was there to worry about indeed!
