With this faint glimmer from the Eternal Lamp, he had stepped across the threshold of the Longevity Realm.
Under normal cultivation, an ordinary Martial God would stop after initially lighting the Eternal Lamp, then wait until they had mostly recovered before attempting to strengthen it.
Fan Lang had deep reserves and was not satisfied with stopping there. He continued squandering his life force to light the Eternal Lamp.
The cluster of light grew brighter and more vigorous.
Fan Lang's life force gradually proved insufficient, so he consumed some pills and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. He also unceremoniously ate the ginseng Chen Zhizheng had given him earlier, which helped somewhat.
With an endless supply of life force, the Eternal Lamp flourished. Other Martial Gods might not be able to forge such a powerful Eternal Lamp even after breaking through seven or eight times.
Only when his body could no longer bear it did Fan Lang stop. He withdrew his technique, and the extra palms behind him vanished one after another. The surroundings returned to calm. He examined the Eternal Lamp within his body and was fairly satisfied with the result.
With his current Eternal Lamp, even if he let another Upper God attack it freely, that person might not be able to extinguish it.
There were probably very few things in this world capable of destroying this Eternal Lamp.
And this was only the beginning. When the time was right in the future, he could continue strengthening the Eternal Lamp. The benefits he gained then would be far more than merely making its light brighter.
After Fan Lang had rested enough, he rose and said, "The task is complete. Next, I plan to make a trip into that fog-covered region. You two should return to the Star Cloud Alliance Headquarters.
