Eternal Life through Drawing Lots

Fang Yang’s command abilities in war were truly extraordinary.

But more importantly, it was because two Great Cultivators, Second Uncle Fang and Seventh Uncle Fang, were anchoring their forces.

Of course, this did not detract from Fang Yang’s brilliance.

After all, the only reason these two clan uncles followed Fang Yang’s lead was because his aptitude and talent were sufficiently outstanding.

If that weren’t the case, why weren’t these two uncles following Fang Min, Fang Hao, or Fang Xuan?

At this moment, the roars of beasts echoed in waves, and the sound of arrows being loosed was incessant.

One Fierce Beast after another fell, but the ones falling in the greatest numbers were not the Northern Barbarian Lions, but the Blood Hyenas.

The Blood Hyenas were the Northern Barbarian Lions’ powerful minions.

In the past, what troubled the adventurers of the Beast Rushing Mountain Range the most was how to deal with the Blood Hyenas.

But now, under Fang Yang’s command, the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe continued to advance without a moment’s pause.

Chieftains, Hundred Beasts Kings, and even Thousand Beasts Kings all fell in battle!

"Fang Yang can actually kill a Thousand Beasts King?!"

"Wait, did I see that right? He just fired a single arrow, and that Northern Barbarian Lion Thousand Beasts King died..."

"That’s too outrageous. That level of combat power defies all logic."

"This is a true paragon of the First Realm! As long as he lives, he’s guaranteed to become a Dao Seed Level prodigy!"

"A young saint, or perhaps even approaching the level of a young Great Saint..."

The members of the major merchant guilds following behind the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe stared wide-eyed as they witnessed Fang Yang’s divine might.

They simply couldn’t believe what they were seeing, calling it utterly outrageous.

Some even turned pale, forced to contemplate how they would mend their relationship with the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe.

It wasn’t that they were opportunists who sailed with the wind; it was that they knew how to get along.

"Heh, in my opinion, the Order Master’s command abilities are still quite excellent."

"That’s right. The reason he suffered a setback at Shengyun High Pass back then was, in all likelihood, because Lin Tianxue and Lin Keyi dragged the Order Master down!"

"It must be. If it weren’t for them, how could the Order Master possibly have lost to that fool, Heilou Xian?"

"But we have them to thank, too. Otherwise, the Order Master and the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe would have suffered a great disaster..."

These people from the merchant guilds completely changed their previously hostile attitude.

No small number among them began to sing Fang Yang’s praises.

If Lin Tianxue and Lin Keyi, lying on their sickbeds, were to learn of the situation here, they would probably jolt awake from their deep comas and raise their butcher knives to kill these hypocrites.

BOOM...

RUMBLE...

The ground shook and the mountains trembled as an utterly terrifying lion’s roar erupted in the distance.

The roar was like a thundering explosion, kicking up vast plumes of white smoke and felling many giant trees.

The Northern Barbarian Lion Ten Thousand Beasts King!

This Northern Barbarian Lion Ten Thousand Beasts King must be extremely old; its paper-white body was covered in wrinkles.

Yet, just by standing silently on the mountain peak, it exuded an aura as profound as a deep pool and as imposing as a great mountain.

In that instant, it seemed to merge with half the northern mountain range, its every move causing the mountains to ripple as if a divine power had descended.

This indescribable pressure was enough to make ordinary Cultivators lose all courage to fight it.

"The Northern Barbarian Lion Ten Thousand Beasts King has finally appeared." Fang Yang’s eyes shone as he glanced at Uncle Qi.

Seventh Uncle Fang nodded slightly, indicating that he would handle everything.

But at that very moment, a second, completely different lion’s roar erupted in the distance.

A second Northern Barbarian Lion Ten Thousand Beasts King!

This second Northern Barbarian Lion Ten Thousand Beasts King had a valiant and powerful face, an earth-gray body, coarse fur, and bulging, potent muscles, brimming with explosive strength.

Clearly, this younger Northern Barbarian Lion Ten Thousand Beasts King was even more formidable—and posed a much greater threat.

In that instant, everyone was stunned speechless.

The intelligence was clearly outdated. Today, wasn’t the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe doomed to suffer a calamity?

"Sigh..." Fang Yang sighed and looked toward his Second Uncle.

Second Uncle Fang wore a faint smile but did not make his position clear.

After all, his main duty was to protect Fang Yang from perishing, not to guard the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe.

Of course, if the situation was right, he would still take action.

Fang Yang wholeheartedly agreed with his Second Uncle’s stance.

...

The battle came to an end.

Fang Yang had finally completed his mission.

He had driven the two Northern Barbarian Lion Ten Thousand Beasts Kings and the rest of the Northern Barbarian Lions out of the northern part of the Beast Rushing Mountain Range!

The result wasn’t perfect, but Fang Yang could accept it.

After all, Second Uncle and the others had always prioritized his, Fang Yang’s, safety above all else.

「At dusk.」

The setting sun was like blood. The people of the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe were in the northern mountains, cleaning up.

They were collecting the corpses of various Fierce Beasts and even harvesting all kinds of Spirit Medicine and Spirit Grass.

They were especially keen on finding things like Primordial Springs, which could produce Yuan Stones, as those were what they desired most.

At this moment, Fang Yang was taking a massive heart from Uncle Qi.

This heart was the heart of a Northern Barbarian Lion Thousand Beasts King.

It resembled a piece of emerald-green jade and gave off a fresh minty scent, yet it was soft to the touch like jelly. It still pulsed from time to time, retaining its vitality!

Seeing it, Second Uncle Fang smiled and said, "Although this Northern Barbarian Lion possesses some properties of the Earth Dao school, which isn’t very compatible with you, I can solve this problem for you by preparing it as a medicinal meal."

’There was one more thing Second Uncle Fang didn’t say out loud: ’This method of preparation is actually very wasteful.’

’But as long as it helps Fang Yang, no matter how wasteful the preparation, it’s completely worth it!’

Fang Yang nodded. "Then I’ll have to trouble you, Second Uncle."

At the same time, he came to understand that the heart of a Northern Barbarian Lion Thousand Beasts King was likely his opportunity to reach Tier Three.

With that matter settled for the time being, Fang Yang specially summoned Lu Yao.

Fang Yang told Lu Yao to use the outbreak of the disaster to quietly absorb refugees in private and appropriately expand the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe.

He wanted to use this golden opportunity to expand the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe!

「Three days later.」

The slumbering White Feathered Eagle slowly opened its eyes, which flickered with a fierce, fiery light.

Its aura, accompanied by its rich qi and blood, shot straight into the sky, forming a thick, billowing column of blood-red smoke!

This column of blood-red smoke, however, was like an ethereal flame, burning furiously and bathing the land in intense heat.

Tier Two High!

Aided by the growth of the White Feathered Eagle Bronze Tribe, the White Feathered Eagle had overcome its bottleneck in one fell swoop, becoming a Tier Two High Fierce Beast.

In the Snake Cave behind them, the Electric Python stared blankly at the column of blood-red smoke, completely stunned, as if it had begun to question its own existence.

Meanwhile, the Small Frost Horse, which had already grown to be half the size of a person, ran happily in circles around the White Feathered Eagle.

Second Uncle Fang watched for a long time before shaking his head and sighing in admiration. "Ah Yang, this White Feathered Eagle of yours is truly extraordinary. If not for the limitations of its Bloodline Power, it would absolutely have the potential of a Desolate Beast!"

Hearing this, Fang Yang’s expression was calm. "The fact that it can help me is already better than having the potential of a Desolate Beast. Second Uncle, let’s continue studying Alchemy Skill..."

’The fact that it can help is better than having the potential of a Desolate Beast?’

Second Uncle Fang stood stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing.

Immediately, he picked up an alchemy book and began explaining the uses of the Great Rejuvenation Pill to Fang Yang.

Great Rejuvenation Pill: A Tier Two Pill. When a Cultivator consumes this pill, their True Essence can be greatly restored...

The reason Fang Yang was studying the skills of an Alchemist Doctor with his Second Uncle was that he wanted to have a common topic of conversation with Sen Hui.

He knew that it wouldn’t be long before Sen Wei, Sen Hui, and the others appeared.

Because Sen Yue was going to secure the entire situation!

That day was likely coming soon; it would not be long.

And during these days, not only did Fang Yang’s skills as an Alchemist Doctor improve, but his cultivation realm also began to advance.

The eagle body portion of his Fire Eagle Illusion had already improved from 9% to 10%.

His rate of growth was astonishingly fast!

Before long, he would be able to advance to the Tier Three Middle realm!
