Chapter 1043: Bait
“The ‘Pantheon Catalog’ was written to an incredibly strong barbarian!”
Gold Ingot said slowly, “Master was at the peak of the Immortal realm, and the one who killed Master was an existence even above the Immortal realm
 But the author of the ‘Pantheon Catalog’ was far beyond them. It’s simply unimaginable!
“There are many incredible mystic techniques in this ‘Pantheon Catalog’. It seemed like it incurred the jealousy of the heavens when it was born, and the heavens scattered it into countless pages. Master obtained one of the pages when he was young. That was how he obtained the Nine Star Pearl Mystic Technique and became an Immortal in no time!”
“So the Nine Star Pearl Mystic Technique was actually recorded in the Pantheon Catalog!” Fang Yuan nodded. “Bring me that page!”
He was now the master of the Pantheon Palace, so Gold Ingot naturally obeyed. It took out a white jade box from the void, and inside the box contained another golden page.
“Nine Star Pearl Mystic Technique
 fourth star, fifth star
 Everything until the ninth star!”
Gold Ingot said, “There were a few sentences at the end, referring to a certain divine armament—the method of refining a Ten Thousand Beast Banner. Unfortunately, it cut off here. The real method of refinement should be on the next page.”
“Ten Thousand Beast Banner, this name
 sounds familiar!” Fang Yuan was startled and suddenly remembered. “Didn’t that weasel under Great Fey Pengze say he wanted to bring Brutal Dark and the others to Great Fey Pengze to refine the Ten Thousand Beast Banner? Is it so coincidental?!”
“What? You even know the whereabouts of the next page?” Gold Ingot shouted, “Snatch it! You must snatch it! Even Immortals die for the pages of the Pantheon Catalog!”
“Don’t worry. That Great Fey Pengze is merely a Fey at the Primordial Core realm. He can’t escape me!” Fang Yuan said confidently.


After a few months.
Inside the cave of the Endless Mountains.
Fang Yuan appeared and gazed at the white ring on his hand with a smile. “I really gained a lot by coming to the land of inheritance this time!”
This white ring was actually the immortal artifact ‘Pantheon Palace’. After wearing it, it was just like a portable cave abode and could also store things and so on. It was endlessly useful.
According to Gold Ingot, he could hide in the Pantheon Palace if he met with danger. Anyone below the Immortal realm could do nothing against it, and even Immortals would have to spend a lot of effort to break it.
Of course, this was based on the premise that Fang Yuan could not yet break through all restrictions in the Pantheon Palace.
Otherwise, if he were an Immortal, he could completely rely on the Pantheon Palace to run rampant among Immortals.
“There’s only one dao artifact in the Pantheon Palace, which is the puppet that Gold Ingot possesses. Luckily, there are many spirit artifacts
”
Fang Yuan looked at his Daoist robe and long saber.
These two items were top-grade spirit artifacts. Even ordinary cultivators at the Primordial Core realm and Apotheosis realm would not have them.
“Strong Beast Magic Robes and Nine Profound Spirit Saber! I’m moving up now?”
Fang Yuan held the Nine Profound Spirit Saber and gave it a casual swing.
Whoosh!
An astonishing Saber Qi emerged and left a long thin line on the ground. “Physical strength has also more than doubled.”
His true trump card was still the Nine Star Pearl Mystic Technique!
In the past few months, not only did he strengthen himself through cultivating the Water Moon Heavenly Cave Secret Manual, but his greatest efforts were on various body refining cultivation techniques.
The strength of his body was now comparable to a mid-grade magic artifact!
Therefore, he could barely manage to open the fourth star!
“Hundred Physical Forging Technique was Immortal Hong Chen’s secret art for body refining. The strongest it can go is to make the body comparable to a dao artifact. Unfortunately, I only managed the most basic level. The following levels aren’t impossible, but I need the aid of some valuable materials! However, my current strength should be enough to kill Great Fey Pengze?”
This Fey at the Primordial Core realm was good at escaping, and once the situation was not to his advantage, he would directly enter his lake.
However, how could he bear it if a cultivator at the Materialization realm were to provoke him?
“Looking at it broadly, this Great Fey Pengze’s luck and strength must be pretty good to have obtained a page of the Pantheon Catalog. He will be scarier if he has refined the Ten Thousand Beast Banner!”
The techniques in the Pantheon Catalog were terrifying. It was obvious from the Nine Star Pearl Mystic Technique and the Pantheon Enhancement Technique.
“I happen to have taken on the task of hunting and killing Fey at the Materialization realm, so I’ll use this to lure the snake out of its hole.”
Fang Yuan made his plan and strode away with his magic robe transforming into the appearance of beast skin.


Pengze.
It was a massive swampy land spanning thousands of kilometers. Five-colored miasma rose from the water surface, and you could see blood eroded bones. It fluctuated and expanded often.
In the swamp, bones without a trace of flesh were a common sight.
“I’ll pretend to be Materialization realm cultivator here on a mission and kill an important subordinate of Great Fey Pengze. I don’t believe he won’t appear then.”
Great Fey Pengze was a Fey at Primordial Core realm after all. Why would he be afraid of going after a cultivator at the Materialization realm?
The ending would be set once he appeared in front of Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan walked by the edge of the swamp and deliberately released a bit of his aura. “According to the records, the Fey in Pengze are very arrogant and will actively attack once they see a weak human cultivator. Huh?”
He released his Materialization power but did not find any Fey. Instead, he found a small barbarian team.
“Who are you?”
Loud were sounds coming from another side of the swamp. Two strong rays of lights came at him like sharp swords.
“This is
 a detection-type magical power?”
Fang Yuan stopped and waited with interest.
A barbarian team appeared before him moments later.
They were three youths in the Beichen tribe’s clothes, and they were shocked when they saw Fang Yuan. “It’s you! Fang Yuan! You’re at the Materialization realm!”
“Sorry, you should know me from the Beichen Ceremony, but I don’t know you!” Fang Yuan touched his nose.
“We are bloodline warriors of the Beichen tribe, Beichen Feng, Beichen Kuang, and Beichen Hong! Why are you here? Shouldn’t you be at the Barbarian Ancestral Court with Young Master?” Beichen Feng asked.
Fang Yuan smiled. “I took on a mission from the Holy Land to kill Fey!”
“That mission where you have to hunt and kill Fey at the Materialization realm?” Beichen Kuang sneered. “You? You’ll die here even if you manage to kill any!”
The three of them were at the Barbarian Palace before, but they could not reach the Primordial Core realm after three years and were sent back. They naturally knew about that seemingly impossible mission in the Barbarian Hall.
“That’s right. Besides, you’re still at the early Materialization realm!” Beichen Hong’s laughter rang merrily. “Little boy, go back!”
There were obvious battle tattoos around her eyes. Clearly, she was the one who had used the detection-type magical power.
“Sorry
 I don’t want to give up the mission!” Fang Yuan shook his head. “What about you three? You’re here to practice by killing Fey?”
“That’s right!” Beichen Kuang nodded. “But we won’t bring along a burden!”
All of them were at the late Materialization realm. A warrior at the early Materialization realm with a mediocre totem was indeed a burden.
“In that case, I won’t bother you!” Fang Yuan’s eyes flashed, touched his ring, and turned to another direction.
“Fang Yuan, you have to be careful. There are six hidden old guys at the Primordial Core realm behind these three!” Gold Ingot’s voice transmitted to his mind directly.
“Six at the Primordial Core realm? That should be a considerable portion of the Beichen tribe’s combat power. Are they preparing to
 hunt Great Fey Pengze?”
“Not necessarily. Perhaps some treasure was born in the swamp!”


“You’re just letting that kid leave?” a low voice questioned in the dark bush behind Beichen Feng.
“He’s just a little boy. He’s nothing even at the Materialization realm. Our mission is still Great Fey Pengze!”
An elder with red hair in the center said lightly, “This Fey is getting even more out of control lately. How dare he enter our tribe and abduct our warriors with good totems!”
“You’re right, Grand Elder. Since that Fang Yuan didn’t heed our advice and continued on into the swamp, it’s his own fault. This saves us the trouble of dirtying our hands!” Another bald elder from the Beichen tribe smiled. “That Great Fey Pengze is crazy for the bloodline warriors of the barbarians
 He’ll definitely come out if he sees one at the Materialization realm!”
“In my opinion, why don’t we just use that Fang Yuan as a bait? This way, our elites won’t have to be in any danger!” another Elder suggested.
Beichen Feng and the other two might have been eliminated by the Barbarian Palace, but they were still rare talents to the Beichen tribe and could become elders with some training!
They came out together as bait for Great Fey Pengze. Although they might have some life-saving treasures ready, it would still be best to avoid danger as much as possible.
“Yes, I think that’s a good idea!”
“Let’s decide it this way then!”
“Even if Fang Yuan survives, we have to manufacture an accident for him. Who asked him not to be from our Beichen tribe!”
The other elders agreed, and the grand elder’s eyes sparkled. “Beichen Feng, Beichen Hong, Beichen Kuang, come back!”


“Be careful, the six Primordial Core cultivators are following you!” Gold Ingot’s voice rang right in Fang Yuan’s sea of consciousness.
“As I expected. They’re preparing to use me as bait. They wouldn’t feel any pain for another tribe’s person anyway!”
Fang Yuan laughed without putting it to heart. In fact, he was slightly pleased.
What was there not to be happy about with six more helpers?


Bloop! Bloop!
A weasel’s head broke the surface of the swamp. “The king’s recent demand for the totems of barbarian geniuses is really growing!”
Fang Yuan would have recognized this weasel if he were here. It was the same one who had tried to abduct Brutal Dark!
“Sigh
 Even leaders like us have missions. We can only take risks to attack those smaller tribes
”
The weasel sped away from the swarm. “However, we won’t be afraid of the Beichen tribe once the king refines the Ten Thousand Beast Banner! It would at least be a dao artifact and can constantly evolve! Eh? It’s
 a human!”
His narrow eyes flashed all of a sudden, releasing an excited aquamarine light.
