  1. Chapter 1195: Young
  2. Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
  3.  
  4.  
  5.  
  6. "Junior, take this move!" Liu Hui shouted, a powerful aura erupting from his whole body.
  7.  
  8. He raised his arms above his head, a grand radiance rose up from his body and rapidly condensed into a crescent moon in the air.
  9.  
  10. The crescent moon was thin and long, it was pale white but covered in a grey halo.
  11.  
  12. "Good! Elder Liu Hui finally got the chance to use his move, grey rock moon!"
  13.  
  14. "This move is a well known method of Liu Hui."
  15.  
  16. "That's right. Those that are struck by this move will start solidifying before finally turning into stone. Even their immortal aperture will also be contaminated, turning rocky, it is a truly troublesome move!"
  17.  
  18. Inside Golden Dawn Hall, righteous path Gu Immortals were discussing with smiles on their faces.
  19.  
  20. On the demonic path's side, Xue Wu Hen was only illuminated by the grey moonlight for several breaths of time before his expression changed greatly.
  21.  
  22. He immediately felt the power of this move, and did not dare to be rash as he quickly used an immortal killer move.
  23.  
  24. Strong cold aura coiled around his whole body, ice and frost attaching to his body. The grey moonlight turned the ice and frost to stone, but the ice and frost regenerated themselves, the grey moonlight was unable to penetrate through them and reach Xue Wu Hen's body.
  25.  
  26. "What? He actually used an offensive killer move on his own body?"
  27.  
  28. "Amazing! Xue Wu Hen handled such a complicated thing with ease, he is quite clever! For the moment, he has blocked Old Liu Hui's signature trump card!"
  29.  
  30. "Go, beat him!"
  31.  
  32. The immortals in Chu Du's side cheered and applauded loudly.
  33.  
  34. By contrast, the relaxed mood inside Golden Dawn Hall had now completely dissipated, and a bad feeling rose up in everyone's hearts.
  35.  
  36. "We are not going to lose to Xue Wu Hen again, right?"
  37.  
  38. "Even Elder Liu Hui cannot hold him down?"
  39.  
  40. "Xue Wu Hen is an unknown character, while Elder Liu Hui is a renowned rank six expert!"
  41.  
  42. As the immortals talked, Xue Wu Hen wore the heavy layer of stone and frost, and charged towards Elder Liu Hui.
  43.  
  44. "Old geezer, you are so old, what are you doing not resting at home? Just die!"
  45.  
  46. Xue Wu Hen pushed both his hands forward, instantly a wave of snow and frost rose up in the air.
  47.  
  48. The righteous path Gu Immortal, Elder Liu Hui, had to maintain the grey crescent moon in the sky, his hands were raised as if he was supporting the sky, he could not move and was directly submerged by this wave of snow.
  49.  
  50. Xue Wu Hen won!
  51.  
  52. Liu Hui died!
  53.  
  54. Everyone was surprised, they had not expected such an outcome.
  55.  
  56. "Before this battle, Xue Wu Hen had already won two consecutive battles, he was injured and not in his best condition."
  57.  
  58. "In the previous two battles, he battled against righteous path juniors, and could not kill the opponent. But now in this third battle, he killed Liu Hui."
  59.  
  60. "The grand Liu Hui actually died at the hands of a nameless demonic path minor character!"
  61.  
  62. "Heavens, this is unbelievable."
  63.  
  64. "This person might only have rank six cultivation, but he truly has rank seven battle strength. Where did this guy come from?"
  65.  
  66. "I can't help but think of Old Ancestor Xue Hu, this Xue Wu Hen is similarly of ice and snow path, he truly resembles Old Ancestor Xue Hu when he was young."
  67.  
  68. "He is still far from being qualified to compare to Old Ancestor Xue Hu. But three victories in three consecutive battles, his name will spread throughout the whole Gu Immortal world."
  69.  
  70. Whether it be the righteous path or Chu Du's side, they were both discussing Xue Wu Hen.
  71.  
  72. "Xiao Jin, don't put your loss to heart. This is not your fault, but the opponent being too strong. He actually killed Liu Hui! Sigh." Ye Lui Hui Hong consoled the young man beside him.
  73.  
  74. Ye Lui Xiao Jin felt his right arm.
  75.  
  76. His right arm was currently still in a frozen state, his whole arm had already turned black and blue from the cold, the intense chill was even affecting his bones and blood.
  77.  
  78. Ye Lui Xiao Jin felt such pain that after his defeat, he returned to the hall and had his head lowered the whole time.
  79.  
  80. As for Ye Lui Hui Hong's words, he did not seem to have heard them.
  81.  
  82. Ye Lui Hui Hong saw this, and sighed inwardly: "You are still young. But this setback will be beneficial to you. This shame will make you try harder, who can say what will happen in the future? Maybe your future achievements will be above them. The main thing is to not lose the confidence in yourself."
  83.  
  84. As he thought of this, Ye Lui Hui Hong gazed at Xue Wu Hen, who was standing alone in the air, and then at Nian Er Ping Zhi who was unable to stay still.
  85.  
  86. "Can I go fight now?" Nian Er Ping Zhi impatiently transmitted his voice to his senior, Nian Er Yi Fang.
  87.  
  88. However, Nian Er Yi Fang shook his head: "This person has won three battles, there are many injuries on him and his state is not at its peak. If you kill him, it would be nothing extraordinary, but if you can't kill him, it would instead weaken your prestige. Moreover, the other side is not foolish, why would they let Xue Wu Hen continue fighting?"
  89.  
  90. Sure enough, the next moment, Chu Du spoke, withdrawing Xue Wu Hen from the battle.
  91.  
  92. Nian Er Ping Zhi snorted: "Even if he does not battle, I will go up. He won three battles, I will win at least six battles!"
  93.  
  94. Nian Er Ping Zhi rose up and bowed to Gong Wan Ting: "I request to go to battle!"
  95.  
  96. Gong Wan Ting's frown relaxed a little.
  97.  
  98. The righteous path, which should have been victorious, was instead defeated thrice by a nameless character from Chu Du's side.
  99.  
  100. This was not only a heavy blow to the righteous path Gu Immortals, it harmed their reputation and was also damaging to Gong Wan Ting's prestige.
  101.  
  102. Gong Wan Ting knew Nian Er Ping Zhi was Nian Er tribe's current generation Sword Child, she naturally had no reason to not permit him.
  103.  
  104. Nian Er Ping Zhi took the stage, and shouted: "Who wants to die?"
  105.  
  106. The rising morale of Chu Du's side immediately stifled.
  107.  
  108. "Careful, don't be fooled by this kid's rank six cultivation, he can kill rank sevens."
  109.  
  110. "He made outstanding battle achievements in the battle of Iron Eagle blessed land, he is also extremely savage, killing multiple Gu Immortals."
  111.  
  112. "Even Old Monster Corpse Poison could not do anything about him."
  113.  
  114. "He is the current inheritor of Sword Saint Nian Er's true inheritance, he naturally is not ordinary."
  115.  
  116. Chu Du's side was silent.
  117.  
  118. Facing Nian Er Ping Zhi's challenge, there was actually no one who dared to accept for a period of time.
  119.  
  120. "Youngsters at the moment, each of them truly are fiercer than the other." Chu Du stroked his forehead.
  121.  
  122. "Big brother Chu, let me go handle him." Xue Wu Hen requested.
  123.  
  124. How could Chu Du permit it.
  125.  
  126. He already saw Xue Wu Hen's weak state, not only were there injuries on his body, many areas of his immortal aperture had even turned into rocks, causing losses to many resources, as a result of Elder Liu Hui's immortal killer move.
  127.  
  128. "Relax, I have already made arrangements to deal with Ping Zhi." Chu Du smiled, assuring Xue Wu Hen.
  129.  
  130. "Granny Yin, I will hand this battle to you." Chu Du spoke to a black robed Gu Immortal behind him.
  131.  
  132. This Gu Immortal with a hunched back was holding a walking stick, and had been silent the whole time.
  133.  
  134. Hearing Chu Du's words, terrifyingly bony hands stretched out of the wide sleeves and lifted up the hood, revealing an old, crooked face.
  135.  
  136. "Hehehe, let this old woman love you tenderly." Granny Yin flew to the battle, and stared at the young Nian Er Ping Zhi with her turbid yellow eyes, which flickered with dangerous light.
  137.  
  138. "What, she is the rank seven demonic Gu Immortal Granny Yin."
  139.  
  140. "Chu Du is shameless, our side's Nian Er Ping Zhi is only a rank six Gu Immortal, they are actually sending a higher rank expert famous in Northern Plains!"
  141.  
  142. "This won't do, call back Nian Er Ping Zhi." Nian Er Yi Fang was also very anxious.
  143.  
  144. Nian Er Ping Zhi was a future star of Nian Er tribe who was heavily nurtured, and Nian Er Yi Fang was in charge of his safety in this trip. If he died here, Nian Er Yi Fang would have greatly neglected his duty.
  145.  
  146. However, Nian Er Ping Zhi's fighting intent burned even stronger when facing a strong opponent.
  147.  
  148. He howled towards the sky, and disregarding the crazed voice transmission of Nian Er Yi Fang, he turned into an incomparably sharp sword light that charged towards Granny Yin!
  149.  
  150. Snowy Mountain, first peak.
  151.  
  152. "Now that I mention it, you need to be thankful to me. Haven't you discovered, your cultivation has risen and is going to reach rank five." Lady Wan Shou said to Ma Hong Yun, while holding a ball of lightning.
  153.  
  154. Ma Hong Yun shouted madly and hysterically: "You insane lunatic! You still want to shock me, you have tormented me so many times, you still want to continue! I don't want this cultivation, please let me go."
  155.  
  156. Lady Wan Shou sneered: "Impossible."
  157.  
  158. She then sent out the ball of lightning.
  159.  
  160. Crack crack crack!
  161.  
  162. Ma Hong Yun's whole body shook, his eyes rolled over, his mouth occasionally opened wide, occasionally pursed up and occasionally turned into 'O' shape, but all the time, he was shouting.
  163.  
  164. "Ahhh ooooohhhh arrghhhh..."
  165.  
  166. He screamed until the lightning completely dissipated.
  167.  
  168. "Failed again, this guy!" Lady Wan Shou's face looked extremely gloomy, she fiercely slapped Ma Hong Yun's cheek.
  169.  
  170. Ma Hong Yun instantly fainted from the slap.
  171.  
  172. Central Continent, Spirit Affinity House.
  173.  
  174. Heavy rain poured down, causing the sky to darken.
  175.  
  176. Zhao Lian Yun was drenched, her vision was blurry and intense dizziness was threatening to make her unconscious.
  177.  
  178. But she firmly held on, using every bit of strength in her body.
  179.  
  180. Although she was an otherworldly demon with memories of a previous world, she did not have much understanding of the upper levels of the Gu world, especially of the mindsets of Gu Immortals, whom she had rarely been able to associate with.
  181.  
  182. As far as she was concerned, this was the only way to save Ma Hong Yun.
  183.  
  184. "This otherworldly demon is indeed somewhat foolish." Li Jun Ying had been observing secretly.
  185.  
  186. Xu Hao shook his head: "I also had not expected her to be so persistent. It has already been over ten days now."
  187.  
  188. Li Jun Ying turned back and looked at her husband: "Have you thought about it, Feng Jin Huang can use this to make a countering scheme against us, requesting Zhao Lian Yun to give up on contending for the position of fairy, and then she will help save her lover?"
  189.  
  190. Xu Hao smiled: "How could that be? According to Feng Jin Huang's nature, she absolutely would not be able to do such a thing. These two are still young."
  191.  
  192. Inside a dream, Southern Border.
  193.  
  194. "Owww, it hurts, it hurts!" Fang Yuan screamed in pain.
  195.  
  196. "Kid, you know pain now? If you had knelt, you would not have had to experience this pain." A middle-aged man with a big beard was holding a Gu worm in his hand, healing Fang Yuan.
  197.  
  198. Fang Yuan raised his head and clenched his right fist: "Uncle, what are you saying? A man only kneels to their parents, heaven and earth, how can we kneel at someone's order?! Even if I die, I won't kneel!"
  199.  
  200. "Not cherishing life, it seems healing you was completely in vain. I should not have done it." Big Beard suddenly became moody.
  201.  
  202. "Hmph, I didn't ask you to heal me!" Fang Yuan endured the pain and stood up, walking out of this tent without looking back.
  203.  
  204. However, he fell down to the ground after taking just a few steps. The intense pain sent him unconscious.
  205.  
  206. When he woke up again, he found he was still inside Big Beard's tent.
  207.  
  208. "Oh you, you are still too young." Big Beard took a gulp of wine: "I have healed half of your injuries, and have left the other half as a lesson."
  209.  
  210. Fang Yuan grumbled, weakly retorting: "Uncle, thank you. But I have told you, this is not about being young, this is a matter of principles!"
  211.  
  212. Chapter 1196: Sword Heart Clarity
  213.  
  214. Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
  215.  
  216.  
  217.  
  218. Above Blood Plain.
  219.  
  220. Nian Er Ping Zhi and Granny Yin's battle had attracted everyone's attention.
  221.  
  222. Granny Yin was a veteran demonic path Gu Immortal, she cultivated soul path and possessed bewitching soul Immortal Gu, and her reputation had already been established long ago in Northern Plains.
  223.  
  224. She moved like a ghost, gloomy winds surged and vengeful souls moved around her, sending chills down people's hearts.
  225.  
  226. And Nian Er Ping Zhi was a shining member of the righteous path's younger generation, the current Sword Child of Nian Er tribe, his movement was quick and his sword moved like lightning.
  227.  
  228. Both sides had exchanged dozens of moves, at first they probed each other with mortal killer moves, then they used Immortal Gu, then immortal killer moves, and now the battle was at a very heated stage.
  229.  
  230. On the field, dark souls had covered most of the sky.
  231.  
  232. And the white sword light representing Nian Er Ping Zhi was already surrounded, despite it charging everywhere and the dark souls moving away, the overall flow of the battle was dictated by Granny Yin.
  233.  
  234. "Granny Yin is indeed a demonic path expert, the way she fights is steady and full of experience." Immortal Wang praised.
  235.  
  236. Chu Du, however, frowned, silent.
  237.  
  238. He was inwardly thinking: "Granny Yin is a rank seven Gu Immortal, but she was not able to immediately kill Nian Er Ping Zhi. Even though the situation looks more inclined towards her, Nian Er Ping Zhi's sword light is still rampaging around without the slightest of hesitation. He still is thinking of winning!"
  239.  
  240. Inside Golden Dawn Hall, seeing his tribe's shining hope, a sword path genius, falling into disadvantage, Nian Er Yi Fang was becoming nervous, staring at the battle without blinking.
  241.  
  242. If the situation looked bad, he would immediately make a move and save Nian Er Ping Zhi.
  243.  
  244. No matter the rules or reputation, as far as Nian Er tribe was concerned, Nian Er Ping Zhi being alive was most important!
  245.  
  246. "Hehehehe… such a tender body, you have nowhere to dodge now, accept your death!" A change suddenly happened at this instance.
  247.  
  248. Countless vengeful ghosts suddenly covered all directions, as they surrounded the sword light that Nian Er Ping Zhi had transformed into.
  249.  
  250. Then, Granny Yin revealed her true body from amidst the countless dark souls, stretching out her withered finger and pointing at Nian Er Ping Zhi from afar.
  251.  
  252. Immortal killer move — Bewitching Soul Art!
  253.  
  254. Nian Er Ping Zhi's eyes immediately lost their light, the freely moving nimble sword light completely dissipated and turned into his true body.
  255.  
  256. He was floating in the air like his mind had halted, not having the slightest bit of reaction to the charging Granny Yin.
  257.  
  258. "Hehehe!" Granny Yin laughed in satisfaction. She opened her mouth wide, revealing her sparse yellow teeth.
  259.  
  260. Her hand suddenly enlarged by many times, dark wind coiled around her five fingers, her nails as sharp as needles. The fan-like hand descended on Nian Er Ping Zhi's head.
  261.  
  262. If this attack were to land true, Nian Er Ping Zhi's skull would no doubt be crushed under his defenseless state.
  263.  
  264. "Stop it!" Nian Er Yi Fang shouted as he rushed out of Golden Dawn Hall.
  265.  
  266. However, Chu Du had already made prior arrangements.
  267.  
  268. He saw that Granny Yin was firmly grasping the battle situation, and had already considered if she were to make a killing strike towards Nian Er Ping Zhi, she would surely be obstructed by the righteous path Gu Immortals.
  269.  
  270. Therefore, he had already arranged his forces to lie in wait.
  271.  
  272. Sure enough, when Nian Er Yi Fang rushed out, Hao Zhen moved out shortly after.
  273.  
  274. "Shameless fellow, you are interfering in a one on one battle?" Hao Zhen shot out a bolt of lightning right at Nian Er Yi Fang's face.
  275.  
  276. Nian Er Yi Fang slightly shook, and emerald wooden armor appeared, covering his whole body firmly.
  277.  
  278. This wooden armor was Nian Er Yi Fang's immortal killer move, and it had extremely powerful defense. Regardless of how sharp Hao Zhen's lightning was, it could not even make a dent on the wooden armor, instead the wooden armor seemed to be rejuvenated as it produced fresh yellow and green leaves, like it had received many benefits.
  279.  
  280. Chu Du immediately gave out a light gasp.
  281.  
  282. He was surprised.
  283.  
  284. What made Chu Du surprised was not Nian Er Yi Fang's wooden armor, as his wooden armor was already famous in Northern Plains and was his self-created immortal killer move — Sick Tree Spring Armor.
  285.  
  286. Instead, it was that Nian Er Yi Fang had rushed out madly to save Nian Er Ping Zhi.
  287.  
  288. However, by using this move and blocking off Hao Zhen's lightning, he had missed the best opportunity to save Nian Er Ping Zhi.
  289.  
  290. Chu Du considered what he would do in Nian Er Yi Fang's position, his tribe's genius, a star of the younger generation, was at risk of losing his life, while he himself could choose to either block the lightning or move to protect Nian Er Ping Zhi's life.
  291.  
  292. But right now, Nian Er Yi Fang had chosen to protect himself. This action meant he did not feel it was urgent to save Nian Er Ping Zhi.
  293.  
  294. What was going on?
  295.  
  296. "Oh no!" Chu Du's heart suddenly jumped, and he quickly looked at the battle.
  297.  
  298. He was just about to warn Granny Yin, but it was already too late.
  299.  
  300. The sluggish looking Nian Er Ping Zhi suddenly let out extremely sharp, mysterious light from his eyes.
  301.  
  302. This change immediately froze Granny Yin's ecstatic laughter.
  303.  
  304. Granny Yin's mind sent out warnings of danger, she wanted to get back to defend herself but it was already late.
  305.  
  306. An extremely stunning sword light flashed!
  307.  
  308. Life and death, victory and loss, were determined within this moment of time.
  309.  
  310. The dark souls were still hovering around, but Granny Yin was already starting to fall down, cut into two by the sword light.
  311.  
  312. She was gazing at Nian Er Ping Zhi with an incredulous look on her face, unable to think of how he had suddenly gotten free from her signature trump card.
  313.  
  314. "Bewitching soul art is Granny Yin's proudest method, which she used when she roamed Northern Plains, but it was actually ineffective against Nian Er Ping Zhi?" Chu Du and his group of immortals paled in shock.
  315.  
  316. "What's going on?" Inside Golden Dawn Hall, the righteous path Gu Immortals were both surprised and joyous.
  317.  
  318. "This is sword heart clarity, it is an immortal killer move in Sword Saint true inheritance, especially used to restrict wisdom path and other similar methods. Few of the Sword Childs in history could use it." Nian Er Yi Fang laughed heartily, not giving up this chance to increase Nian Er tribe's prestige.
  319.  
  320. Ye Lui Xiao Jin could not help thinking: "Is he saying Nian Er Ping Zhi is outstanding even when placed among all the Sword Childs in history?"
  321.  
  322. He was a genius of Ye Lui tribe, but unfortunately had lost to Xue Wu Hen.
  323.  
  324. On the contrary, Nian Er Ping Zhi had killed the rank seven demonic path expert Granny Yin. Comparing the two, it was clear for everyone who was better and who was worse.
  325.  
  326. "This Nian Er Yi Fang is truly crafty. He clearly knew Nian Er Ping Zhi's situation was of no concern, but still pretended to rush out in panic to save Nian Er Ping Zhi." Chou Lao Wu mumbled behind Chu Du, feeling indignant.
  327.  
  328. One had to say Nian Er Yi Fang had acted really well.
  329.  
  330. Because of his acting, the Gu Immortals of both sides had subconsciously thought Nian Er Ping Zhi was in absolute danger.
  331.  
  332. Even Granny Yin was deceived.
  333.  
  334. "No, maybe it was Granny Yin who was too confident in her immortal killer move bewitching soul art." Chu Du assessed internally: "And this Nian Er Ping Zhi is also not just a brutish person, he actually pretended to be struck by the ability, deceiving Granny Yin. The killer move he used to kill Granny Yin is also not simple, it is terrifyingly powerful and also extremely fast, it is virtually impossible to guard against. It should be one sword life, an immortal killer move used by Sword Saint Nian Er in his younger days!"
  335.  
  336. "Come back quickly." Nian Er Yi Fang was in high spirits, but quickly and anxiously transmitted his voice to Nian Er Ping Zhi.
  337.  
  338. Nian Er Ping Zhi had killed Granny Yin, but he had also suffered heavy injuries.
  339.  
  340. He quickly retreated, but before leaving, he naturally brought the two halves of Granny Yin's body with him.
  341.  
  342. One half of the corpse had Granny Yin's immortal aperture.
  343.  
  344. This was Nian Er Ping Zhi's spoils of battle.
  345.  
  346. Chu Sect did not stop him, this was one of the rules stated in the competition agreement.
  347.  
  348. It was like when Xue Wu Hen who had stored away Gu Immortal Liu Hui's corpse.
  349.  
  350. However, Xue Wu Hen might have won three battles, but he only killed the rank six Gu Immortal Liu Hui. While Nian Er Ping Zhi might have only won one battle, but he took a rank seven demonic path Gu Immortal, Granny Yin's, life.
  351.  
  352. Thus, the righteous path's side was slightly leading.
  353.  
  354. Chu Du was feeling the pressure.
  355.  
  356. The slight dominance brought by Xue Wu Hen had now been balanced out by Nian Er Ping Zhi.
  357.  
  358. "Who should I send in this next battle?"
  359.  
  360. Chu Du was hesitating.
  361.  
  362. Soon, the result of this battle reached Fang Yuan.
  363.  
  364. Fang Yuan was still in Lang Ya blessed land, cultivating.
  365.  
  366. "Nian Er Ping Zhi killed Granny Yin?" Fang Yuan was only slightly surprised before he accepted this fact.
  367.  
  368. There were many genius experts who were able to achieve the feat of winning against rank seven with rank six cultivation.
  369.  
  370. But using rank seven cultivation to fight rank eight was extremely rare.
  371.  
  372. Nian Er Ping Zhi… Fang Yuan did not have any impression of this person in his memories. After all, in his first life, Fang Yuan was still a mortal around this time, and was not at all aware of the events in the Gu Immortal world or Northern Plains' Gu Immortal world.
  373.  
  374. What made Fang Yuan more interested was instead Xue Wu Hen.
  375.  
  376. Precisely speaking, it was the loot in Xue Wu Hen's possession — that Gu Immortal, Liu Hui's, blessed land.
  377.  
  378. "Gu Immortal Liu Hui is an earth path Gu Immortal who has gone through two heavenly tribulations, his blessed land is suitable for me to annex. With this, my cultivation can also rise and reach rank seven."
  379.  
  380. As he thought of this, Fang Yuan immediately wrote a reply.
  381.  
  382. He took the initiative to request for Chu Du's help in expressing his intention of buying the immortal aperture from Xue Wu Hen.
  383.  
  384. As for the invitation of Chu Du asking Fang Yuan to help, Fang Yuan used the reason of being in secluded cultivation to delay in a roundabout way.
  385.  
  386. "I need to raise my cultivation to rank seven first, it won't be too late to join this blood battle martial competition then."
  387.  
  388. Fang Yuan slightly shook his head, throwing the news of this blood battle martial competition to the back of his mind.
  389.  
  390. The Chu Sect alliance agreement he had was rather lenient. Even if Chu Sect was annihilated, Fang Yuan could choose not to show up and it would not be a problem.
  391.  
  392. Fang Yuan prioritized raising his cultivation, all the other things were secondary.
  393.  
  394. Chu Du received Fang Yuan's reply.
  395.  
  396. Fang Yuan did not come, which made Chu Du frown.
  397.  
  398. "Sigh, if Elder Liu Guan Yi could come, I would not be in this difficult spot." Chu Du heaved a sigh.
  399.  
  400. Xue Wu Hen was standing beside Chu Du, and curiously asked when he heard Chu Du: "Hearing Brother Chu's tone, it seems you hold this Elder Liu Guan Yi in high esteem."
  401.  
  402. Chu Du laughed: "He had mentioned you in his letter, hoping you can sell Liu Hui's immortal aperture to him."
  403.  
  404. Xue Wu Hen shook his head: "I could not get Liu Hui's Immortal Gu, but the resources inside the immortal aperture are my battle spoils. I don't know their value, so how can I sell them?"
  405.  
  406. His intention of refusal was extremely obvious.
  407.

  411.  
  412.  
  413.  
  414. Chu Du smiled.
  415.  
  416. Deep down, Xue Wu Hen was someone he wanted to recruit to his Chu Sect, so he had been giving him a lot of consideration.
  417.  
  418. However, Fang Yuan was his collaboration partner, later on he would have to get Reckless Savage's true meaning from Fang Yuan to raise his strength path attainment.
  419.  
  420. Chu Du was well aware of which was more important.
  421.  
  422. "In his letter, Liu Guan Yi entrusted me to accomplish this matter." Chu Du thought to himself, while transmitting his voice to Xue Wu Hen, "Brother Xue, collaborating with Elder Liu Guan Yi is probably your best choice to get the resources in Liu Hui's aperture."
  423.  
  424. "How so?" Xue Wu Hen asked doubtfully.
  425.  
  426. "Because Elder Liu has an upper extreme heavenly eagle. This eagle can go into blessed lands, it is better for you take away the resources in the immortal aperture and give the immortal aperture to Elder Liu, making him add on some resources as the price. Isn't this a win-win situation?" Chu Du replied.
  427.  
  428. Xue Wu Hen's eyes brightened.
  429.  
  430. "Upper extreme heavenly eagle?! I have also heard of this immemorial beast, I did not expect Elder Liu Guan Yi to have such a rare bird."
  431.  
  432. Pausing for a while, Xue Wu Hen continued his voice transmission: "I am willing to transact with Elder Liu!"
  433.  
  434. Right as Fang Yuan's plan was about to succeed, a change happened.
  435.  
  436. A Gu Immortal walked out of Golden Dawn Hall.
  437.  
  438. "It is a Liu tribe Gu Immortal, Liu Zhuan Shen!" Immortal Wang immediately recognized this person.
  439.  
  440. "He is coming down to fight?" Chu Du's side cast their gazes.
  441.  
  442. However, Liu Zhuan Shen did not go to the stage, instead stopped at the entrance of Golden Dawn Hall: "Lord Domination Immortal, my side is willing to use Granny Yin's corpse to exchange for Elder Liu Hui's corpse and soul."
  443.  
  444. Liu Hui's corpse had ended up in enemy hands, Liu tribe's Gu Immortals naturally were not willing to see such a scene.
  445.  
  446. The corpse was still alright, the main thing was the soul.
  447.  
  448. Liu Hui's soul had not been destroyed.
  449.  
  450. Therefore, Liu tribe's Gu Immortals wanted to get back Liu Hui's corpse and soul no matter what.
  451.  
  452. However, Liu Zhuan Shen did not have enough bargaining chips on him, and was also afraid that the other side would be very greedy and recklessly extort them, if so, then the situation would be quite awkward and they would be put on the spot.
  453.  
  454. So, Liu Zhuan Shen and the other Liu tribe Gu Immortals felt anxious, but did not make a rash move.
  455.  
  456. After Nian Er Ping Zhi killed Granny Yin, Liu tribe's Gu Immortals saw hope in this matter.
  457.  
  458. Liu Zhuan Shen had thus communicated with Nian Er tribe, and after giving up many benefits, had exchanged for Granny Yin's corpse.
  459.  
  460. An immortal aperture was inside Granny Yin's corpse, and for the moment, was unharmed.
  461.  
  462. It was only that Granny Yin's soul was already destroyed by Nian Er Ping Zhi. Nian Er Ping Zhi had a tough victory and simply was unable to hold back.
  463.  
  464. Granny Yin's soul was completely destroyed by the immortal killer move one sword life.
  465.  
  466. However, as far as Liu tribe's Gu Immortals were concerned, Granny Yin was rank seven while Liu Hui was only rank six, this transaction was very likely to be accomplished.
  467.  
  468. Chu Du's side heard these words, and there was immediately a stir among them, as they began to whisper to each other.
  469.  
  470. Chu Du inwardly exclaimed: "Amazing, this Liu Zhuan Shen has quite the ability, putting me in such a spot."
  471.  
  472. Chu Du did not have to turn around to sense the disturbance among the Gu Immortals behind him.
  473.  
  474. Granny Yin moved alone and had few relations with other Gu Immortals, most of her relationships were even hostile. Granny Yin had come this time only because of Chu Du's prestige and the rewards.
  475.  
  476. However, Chu Du knew these Gu Immortals behind him hoped the two sides could exchange the corpses.
  477.  
  478. The reason was that this blood battle martial competition had just begun, in the following battles, there might be Gu Immortals whose bodies and souls would perish in battle.
  479.  
  480. If that was the case, so be it, since there was no body nor soul.
  481.  
  482. But if they lost their life and their soul was left behind in the enemy's hands, what could they do?
  483.  
  484. Under such a situation, they could only rely on their side's Gu Immortals to help retrieve their soul.
  485.  
  486. "If I agree to Liu Zhuan Shen's request, I can stabilize these Gu Immortals' mindsets and lessen their worries. Otherwise, the morale will probably lower which can seriously impact the following battles."
  487.  
  488. Chu Du understood the importance of this matter.
  489.  
  490. Most of the members of Chu Sect and Bai Zu tribe were lone immortals or demonic cultivators. They were not well united to begin with, they only took this risk because of the reputations of Domination Immortal and Heavenly Lord Bai Zu, as well as the rewards.
  491.  
  492. If Chu Du were to refuse now, these Gu Immortals would probably be self-conscious and be on guard against each other.
  493.  
  494. Chu Du hesitated for a while, apologizing to Liu Guan Yi inwardly, before he spoke, agreeing to this transaction.
  495.  
  496. Liu Zhuan Shen was joyous, both sides exchanged the corpses.
  497.  
  498. Xue Wu Hen had lost a rank six earth path immortal aperture and Gu Immortal soul, but obtained a rank seven soul path immortal aperture. While Chu Du had also secretly made it up to him with some snow path killer moves.
  499.  
  500. So, he was quite happy with this result.
  501.  
  502. Anyway, even if he interrogated Liu Hui's soul and obtained earth path killer moves, they would be useless to him.
  503.  
  504. After both sides exchanged the corpses, Gong Wan Ting also saw the importance of this matter, and took the initiative to negotiate with Chu Du.
  505.  
  506. Because of this event, both sides had thus conveniently added a rule in the blood battle martial competition regarding the exchange of corpses and soul captives.
  507.  
  508. After a delay of half a day, both sides engaged in another battle.
  509.  
  510. Chu Du's side sent a Bai Zu tribe Gu Immortal, it was the previous Hei tribe supreme elder. The actual Bai Zu bloodline members were still being taken care of.
  511.  
  512. Before this trip, Chu Du had received Heavenly Lord Bai Zu's instructions to protect as many Bai Zu tribe descendants as possible.
  513.  
  514. Because of this setback, Fang Yuan's plan went down the drain.
  515.  
  516. Not long later, he received Chu Du's letter, the letter explained the reason in detail. Chu Du's tone was polite and even apologized to Fang Yuan for not fulfilling what he was entrusted with.
  517.  
  518. Fang Yuan understood Chu Du's difficulty.
  519.  
  520. He was standing in a Gu refinement secret room, mumbling to himself: "I don't have a use for a soul path immortal aperture. It seems I still have to make a move personally and seize the immortal aperture that I want, and advance to rank seven."
  521.  
  522. However, there were many forces in the blood battle martial competition, although Fang Yuan had familiar face, he still needed some new offensive methods.
  523.  
  524. After all, he had proclaimed to the outside world that he was a transformation path Gu Immortal.
  525.  
  526. "I have flying bear strength Immortal Gu, but the power of the flying bear transformation is quite poor."
  527.  
  528. "Fortunately, I have been considering this beforehand and have many possible solutions now!"
  529.  
  530. Fang Yuan's gaze landed on the dragon corpse in front of him.
  531.  
  532. This was a desolate beast.
  533.  
  534. Its whole body was shining with silvery light, its horn was sharp as a spear, its eyes were pure white, its fangs and claws looked fearsome, many layers of scales covered its body emitting metallic luster.
  535.  
  536. This was a silver colored dragon.
  537.  
  538. The whole body was twenty feet long, its body was slender and its shape was fluid and graceful. It was like a piece of art, but it emitted a dense cold feeling of sharpness, as if anyone who got close to it would be pierced through by the surrounding air.
  539.  
  540. This was not a false feeling, but it was because this silver dragon with two claws was originally a sword path desolate beast—— Sword Dragon.
  541.  
  542. Now, it was already dead, its sword path dao marks were gradually dissipating, merging into the surrounding environment.
  543.  
  544. This was the transformation Fang Yuan had prepared to cultivate ——Sword Dragon Transformation!
  545.  
  546. "The killer move sword dragon transformation needs dragon scale Gu, dragon horn Gu, dragon claw Gu, dragon eyes Gu, and so on. If any one of the Gu worms is an Immortal Gu, then it becomes an immortal killer move."
  547.  
  548. "But I have change form Immortal Gu, this Gu is one of the core essences of transformation path. Thus, I don't need to refine immortal level dragon scale Gu, dragon horn Gu, dragon claw Gu or dragon eyes Gu, and only need to refine the mortal Gu versions, and use change form Immortal Gu as the core, to form immortal killer move sword dragon transformation."
  549.  
  550. Transformation path killer moves were extremely simple.
  551.  
  552. It could even be said to be rudimentary.
  553.  
  554. This was one of the advantages of cultivating transformation path.
  555.  
  556. Immortal killer moves of other paths were not easy to deduce, but transformation path was completely different in this aspect.
  557.  
  558. Adding on that Fang Yuan himself was a wisdom path grandmaster, not only did he successfully deduced the contents of sword dragon transformation, but also improved on many aspects, making the transformation faster and nimbler.
  559.  
  560. Naturally, Gu Immortal Han Dong had a contribution in this.
  561.  
  562. He was a transformation path Gu Immortal who specialized in cultivating spirit snake transformation.
  563.  
  564. A dragon had a similar body shape and battle style. Although Han Dong died and his soul had dissipated, he had left behind a land spirit which retained some of Han Dong's cultivation insights, it was enough for Fang Yuan to take as a reference.
  565.  
  566. He started activating the Gu refinement formation and began to refine this desolate beast sword dragon.
  567.  
  568. The desolate beast sword dragon was full of sword path dao marks and in itself was an immortal material which could be refined into Immortal Gu.
  569.  
  570. However, Fang Yuan's refinement path attainment was not particularly high, and with just this sword dragon, the immortal materials to refine the relevant Immortal Gu were also not sufficient, so Fang Yuan was refining only mortal Gu to support change form Immortal Gu.
  571.  
  572. The refinement process went rather smoothly.
  573.  
  574. Fang Yuan himself was a Gu Immortal and was using precious immortal materials to refine some rank five mortal Gu, the success rate was naturally extremely high and could even be said to be quite easy.
  575.  
  576. Some days later.
  577.  
  578. Fang Yuan stood still and took in a deep breath, his mind was still. Suddenly, thoughts surged up like a storm, as Gu worms started activating one after the other.
  579.  
  580. In just a breath of time, Fang Yuan's whole body emitted piercing silvery radiance.
  581.  
  582. After the silver light dissipated, an elegant and exquisite silver sword dragon that was emitting a feeling of sharpness appeared.
  583.  
  584. The sword dragon's eyes were white, but they flashed with intelligence.
  585.  
  586. It was Fang Yuan!
  587.  
  588. "Immortal killer move sword dragon transformation has already been refined. Next…"
  589.  
  590. Fang Yuan began to get familiar with his body, brandishing his claws and fangs, or flying in the sky.
  591.  
  592. His practice drills went quite decently, it was because he had already begun cultivating transformation path. Not only the flying bear transformation, many times, he had used change form Immortal Gu to transform into all kinds of appearances, although they had not reached mastery, he could be said to be familiar with them.
  593.  
  594. After thoroughly getting familiar with this form, Fang Yuan began to test the might of this immortal killer move.
  595.  
  596. First was the expenditure of immortal essence.
  597.  
  598. Very little.
  599.  
  600. The expenditure of green grape immortal essence to maintain the sword dragon transformation was not high. After all, it only involved rank six change form Immortal Gu.
  601.  
  602. Next was his battle strength.
  603.  
  604. Fang Yuan had already arranged immortal materials in front of him.
  605.  
  606. First was a piece of hundred years profound ice, he swept at it with his claws, Fang Yuan felt like he had sliced into tofu, he easily smashed this profound ice into pieces.
  607.  
  608. Next, Fang Yuan moved to the subterranean adamantite and clawed at it!
  609.  
  610. Subterranean adamantite was among the hardest rank six immortal materials, it immediately showed a clear claw marking that reached a few inches deep.
  611.  
  612. Fang Yuan was immediately aware of the limit of the power of his dragon claws, he did not need to test it on the rank seven immortal material at the side.
  613.

  617.  
  618.  
  619.  
  620. Gu are the essence of heaven and earth, man is the spirit of all living beings.
  621.  
  622. Human intelligence was the highest among all the living beings. However, the way of heaven was to have balance, humans were highest in intelligence, but their bodies were extremely fragile.
  623.  
  624. Humans did not have sharp claws, fur, wings, or gills.
  625.  
  626. The strength of humans might not be the weakest but it was at the bottom tier. They were fundamentally unable to contest with typical desolate beasts.
  627.  
  628. Human skin was no different from paper compared to desolate beasts.
  629.  
  630. However, when Fang Yuan transformed into a desolate beast sword dragon, he obtained the qualities of a sword dragon. Although there was still a difference from a true sword dragon, he was already far beyond the limits of humans.
  631.  
  632. The initial concept when transformation path was created was —
  633.  
  634. Study all living beings and add the advantages of those beings to one's own body.
  635.  
  636. Humans did not have sharp claws, so transform human fingers into claws. Humans did not have fur, so transform one's hair into fur.
  637.  
  638. If one is without wings, then create wings, and fly like the birds in the sky. If one has no gills, transform into a fish, and swim in the depths of the sea.
  639.  
  640. Naturally, by the current era, the concept of transformation path was not limited to just this.
  641.  
  642. Using one path to project every path had become transformation path's main principle, imitating the advantages of other paths.
  643.  
  644. As time passed, there were bound to be improvements.
  645.  
  646. The wheels of history would keep on turning forward.
  647.  
  648. Ever since Reckless Savage Demon Venerable created transformation path, this path had not declined and was passed down throughout human history, moreover, new ideas replaced the old, causing it to thrive even now.
  649.  
  650. Fang Yuan lightly stretched out his dragon body, flying to the rank seven immortal material.
  651.  
  652. This was a giant dark inkstone, among rank seven immortal materials, it was considered very firm and had the characteristic of being difficult to process.
  653.  
  654. His dragon claws slashed at it, but were unable to leave any trace.
  655.  
  656. Fang Yuan had already expected this, thus he did not use only his claws, instead, he turned his body and suddenly whipped his tail!
  657.  
  658. Ping.
  659.  
  660. A sharp sound resounded as the dragon tail fiercely whipped at the dark inkstone.
  661.  
  662. Pain could be felt from the dragon tail, causing Fang Yuan to take a sharp breath of cold air.
  663.  
  664. While on the dark inkstone's surface, a thin crack appeared.
  665.  
  666. Just based on the dragon tail's whip, it was more menacing than the claws.
  667.  
  668. This was an attribute of the sword dragon.
  669.  
  670. Many dragons' characteristics differed in subtle aspects.
  671.  
  672. Some dragons had extremely sharp fangs, their strong bite power surpassing the power of their claws and tail. Some dragons were better at ripping, their claws were their most powerful weapons.
  673.  
  674. And the sword dragon was slender and nimble, the power of its tail surpassed its two small claws.
  675.  
  676. And above the power of its tail was the sword dragon's speed.
  677.  
  678. Fang Yuan had already practiced it, the sword dragon was not powerful in long distance attacks, but its burst of speed from an unmoving state was impressive.
  679.  
  680. Although it could not compare to sword escape Immortal Gu, it was not inferior to Fang Yuan's blood path movement killer move — Blood Torrent.
  681.  
  682. Moreover, because it was the sword dragon's own innate movement speed, Fang Yuan could change directions much more nimbly than blood torrent, and it was much easier to maneuver as well.
  683.  
  684. And the sword dragon's strongest weapon was its dragon breath.
  685.  
  686. Dragons could breathe out attacks.
  687.  
  688. This was almost an innate ability of any dragon.
  689.  
  690. It was like the upper extreme heavenly eagle, having the innate ability to penetrate space and enter blessed lands and grotto-heavens. It was just that the dragon's breath was a very common ability, while the upper extreme heavenly eagle's ability was rare.
  691.  
  692. Upper extreme heavenly eagles were very rare, rank eight Gu Immortal Hei Fan had also obtained one through a fortuitous encounter. Besides him, no one had obtained another upper extreme heavenly eagle in Hei tribe's history.
  693.  
  694. Whoosh!
  695.  
  696. Fang Yuan tested his dragon breath.
  697.  
  698. In an instant, a white light flashed and shot at the rank six immortal material subterranean adamantite.
  699.  
  700. The subterranean adamantite shook lightly before the dragon breath disappeared, the whole process was very fast, it was as if nothing had occurred.
  701.  
  702. But the next moment, changes started to slowly appear in the subterranean adamantite, a clear crack appeared on the subterranean adamantite, the whole crack was incomparably straight, going from top to bottom in a slightly inclined angle.
  703.  
  704. The subterranean adamantite was split into two by this thin crack. Then, due to the subterranean adamantite's enormous weight, the two halves fell down.
  705.  
  706. Bam bam, two consecutive muffled sounds echoed.
  707.  
  708. The boulder sized subterranean adamantite had split into two and fallen to the ground.
  709.  
  710. The cut surface was smooth, like it was directly split by the sharpest weapon in the world.
  711.  
  712. Fang Yuan's dragon claws could only leave behind marks a few inches deep. But his dragon breath was incomparably sharp, cutting down this giant subterranean adamantite into two!
  713.  
  714. It had to be known that subterranean adamantite was considered among the hardest rank six immortal materials.
  715.  
  716. The might of the sword dragon's breath could be seen from this.
  717.  
  718. Despite Fang Yuan being mentally prepared, upon seeing the two halves of the subterranean adamantite, he could not help slightly nodding his dragon head in satisfaction.
  719.  
  720. Next, he continued to test.
  721.  
  722. He used his dragon breath on the rank seven immortal material dark inkstone.
  723.  
  724. Dark inkstone was even firmer than subterranean adamantite, the dragon breath was like sword light, cutting open marks several inches deep on the dark inkstone.
  725.  
  726. Fang Yuan continuously breathed it out sixteen times before he reached his limit.
  727.  
  728. For a short period of time, he would not be able to send out his dragon breath, he felt like a traveler in a desert who had not drank water for over half a month, his throat was extremely dry. If he tried to use dragon breath any more, he had the feeling he would destroy his throat.
  729.  
  730. Consecutively using dragon breath sixteen times changed the appearance of the whole dark inkstone. There were sword marks everywhere on it, it looked somewhat scary.
  731.  
  732. After resting for some time, Fang Yuan felt he had recovered to some degree.
  733.  
  734. He breathed out again, sure enough, he used the seventeenth dragon breath!
  735.  
  736. Fang Yuan engraved this duration in his mind.
  737.  
  738. He was continuously estimating: 'With just my own strength, I can use dragon breath sixteen times in a row. After resting for about five minutes, I will recover and can continue to breathe it out. But it is just barely possible, and after breathing out the seventeenth dragon breath, I will once again fall into the previous plight and will still need to rest for five minutes of time."
  739.  
  740. "If I add some dragon breath mortal Gu in this, I should be able to increase the amount of times I can use dragon breath."
  741.  
  742. Fang Yuan had not yet combined dragon breath Gu in this sword dragon transformation immortal killer move.
  743.  
  744. Dragon breath Gu was quite difficult to refine.
  745.  
  746. This was because the material to refine this Gu worm was the breath of dragons.
  747.  
  748. This dragon Fang Yuan obtained was dead, he had waited for a long time in treasure yellow heaven before he found someone selling it, and he had to pay a considerable price to buy it.
  749.  
  750. Only a living dragon could send its breath out, which could then be used as material to refine dragon breath Gu.
  751.  
  752. Naturally, if the Gu recipe was modified and other materials were used to substitute for dragon breath, it could be done. But Fang Yuan clearly did not have such ability.
  753.  
  754. Besides a living sword dragon, other living dragons also could be used to refine dragon breath Gu.
  755.  
  756. However, such a dragon breath Gu might be the same in name, but would have some slight differences. Although it could be used, some other mortal Gu had to be added in to remove the differences.
  757.  
  758. Transformation path was somewhat particular about this aspect.
  759.  
  760. Thus, Fang Yuan had specifically refined all the required Gu like dragon scale Gu, dragon claw Gu and so on from the sword dragon's corpse.
  761.  
  762. By using these Gu worms, he could much more quickly and conveniently activate the immortal killer move, sword dragon transformation.
  763.  
  764. The testing of the killer move was finished, the results were in line with Fang Yuan's expectations.
  765.  
  766. He had pondered deeply about choosing sword dragon transformation, and he had deduced these results in detail prior to this.
  767.  
  768. "With just a rank six Immortal Gu as the core, sword dragon transformation has a certain level of battle strength, but it is still not enough against rank seven Gu Immortals."
  769.  
  770. Normally speaking, rank seven Gu Immortals had defensive methods that were stronger than dark inkstone.
  771.  
  772. Fang Yuan used the strongest weapon of his sword dragon transformation, dragon breath, but was only able to deform this dark inkstone.
  773.  
  774. This sword dragon transformation was not sufficient for display in the blood battle martial competition.
  775.  
  776. Fang Yuan was well aware of this.
  777.  
  778. He naturally had follow-up methods.
  779.  
  780. Cancelling his transformation, he flew out of his cloud city and soon arrived in front of Lang Ya land spirit.
  781.  
  782. Fang Yuan directly expressed his intent: "Greetings to first supreme elder, I am here to exchange for sect contribution points."
  783.  
  784. Lang Ya land spirit's eyes flashed with joy, he knew Fang Yuan had obtained Hei Fan grotto-heaven, had the status of an inheritor of Thieving Heaven, wrecked Eighty-Eight True Yang Building and definitely had many good things in his hands.
  785.  
  786. And for Lang Ya Sect to develop, it naturally needed better and more precious cultivation resources.
  787.  
  788. However, Lang Ya land spirit could not force other Gu Immortals to hand over their resources, this would conflict with their interests, and Lang Ya Sect would then fall apart.
  789.  
  790. "It is good you have such thoughts." Lang Ya land spirit was greatly interested, "What do you want to contribute to the sect this time?"
  791.  
  792. "First, take a look at this." Fang Yuan brought out an item.
  793.  
  794. "A Gu Immortal's soul?" Lang Ya land spirit frowned, souls of Gu Immortals could be treated as a type of immortal material, and had more value if they were of a soul path Gu Immortal. There was even more value in the cultivation memories in the Gu Immortal's soul.
  795.  
  796. Gu Immortal souls were naturally not common.
  797.  
  798. Many Gu Immortals had methods to detonate their soul, Shadow Sect were most adept in this. Back then, when Feng Jiu Ge had battled Qin Bai Sheng before he recovered his memories, he had sensed the latter had a powerful soul detonation method, and thus let go of Qin Bai Sheng, not willing to fight to such a desperate extent.
  799.  
  800. When Gu Immortals battle, it would not be easy for them to hold back. Just like when Nian Er Ping Zhi killed Granny Yin, he directly destroyed her soul.
  801.  
  802. Lang Ya land spirit accepted this Gu Immortal soul, but he found this soul was already tampered with by Fang Yuan and could no longer be soul searched, only being used as immortal material.
  803.  
  804. "Like this, this Gu Immortal soul can only exchange for a hundred contribution points." Lang Ya land spirit said with slight disappointment.
  805.  
  806. Fang Yuan, however, smiled: "No, I think the price can be slightly higher. We can place this Gu Immortal soul in Dang Hun Mountain and turn it into guts Gu. Gu Immortal souls are extraordinary, they are supreme goods, this will definitely turn into a large sum of guts Gu. Recently, we have not been able to increase the production of guts Gu, with this Gu Immortal soul, we can definitely satisfy the rockman tribe's requests."
  807.  
  808. Lang Ya land spirit came to a realization and nodded: "It is indeed true."
  809.  
  810. He estimated the price again and said: "This rank six Gu Immortal soul can be considered as two hundred and ten sect contribution points then."
  811.  
  812. Chapter 1199: Huge Sale
  813.  
  814. Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
  815.  
  816.  
  817.  
  818. Fang Yuan nodded in agreement.
  819.  
  820. This price was fair, the value of the Gu Immortal soul had increased because of guts Gu.
  821.  
  822. Since the four races alliance was set, the rockman tribe below the northern icy plain requested for a large amount of guts Gu as they had an extremely urgent need for them.
  823.  
  824. However, guts Gu had always been sold at a fixed price in treasure yellow heaven. This price could not be reduced, after all, they had to consider the long term.
  825.  
  826. Currently, although the rockman tribe's relation with Lang Ya Sect was close, most of the guts Gu were still sold at treasure yellow heaven.
  827.  
  828. Because of the monopoly on guts Gu, they could not only exchange guts Gu for immortal essence stones, but also exchange for many immortal materials and other resources.
  829.  
  830. In the resource-scarce northern icy plain, the payment the rockman tribe could provide was not able to satisfy Lang Ya Sect's development requirements.
  831.  
  832. For the benefit of the whole sect, Lang Ya land spirit would not make the rockman tribe the main trade partner.
  833.  
  834. The rockman tribe was dissatisfied but had no choice regarding this.
  835.  
  836. In short, the production of guts Gu was far from enough to meet the demand in the market. Especially in regards to Southern Border, because of the righteous path Gu Immortals exploring the giant dream realm repeatedly, they had excessive demands for the guts Gu in treasure yellow heaven.
  837.  
  838. This even created a black market for guts Gu.
  839.  
  840. Some guts Gu were resold at a much higher price.
  841.  
  842. Lang Ya Sect had repeatedly raised the price of guts Gu, but the item was still extremely popular, the whole market was like an insatiable monster and even though Lang Ya Sect was already putting full effort in producing guts Gu, it simply was unable to satisfy the terrifying appetite of this monster.
  843.  
  844. Among Fang Yuan's revenue sources, the profits from the guts Gu trade had already soared far ahead, entering its own level.
  845.  
  846. Guts gu was the greatest contributor to Fang Yuan being able to repeatedly use rank seven Immortal Gu in battle and easily replenishing his reserves of green grape immortal essence at set intervals.
  847.  
  848. Lang Ya land spirit received this Gu Immortal soul and spoke: "Man is the spirit of all living beings, with this Gu Immortal soul, we can indeed increase the production of guts Gu to a huge degree next time. Unfortunately, Gu Immortal souls can only be found by fortunate circumstances and not sought out. In the future, the primary investment for this aspect is still in Tai Qiu. Fang Yuan, if you are free, make a few trips to Tai Qiu. Desolate beast and desolate plant souls might be far inferior to Gu Immortal souls, but we can offset it with quantity and the source is also stable. With you taking action, we should be able to develop even more quickly in Tai Qiu."
  849.  
  850. Lang Ya land spirit thought highly of Fang Yuan's ability.
  851.  
  852. However, Fang Yuan replied: "I will be going to take part in blood battle martial competition soon, I am afraid I won't have time to split my attention. This is a second Gu Immortal soul, I hope first supreme elder can verify its quality."
  853.  
  854. "Second?" Lang Ya land spirit raised his eyebrows, but was not surprised.
  855.  
  856. He knew some details about Fang Yuan, and was not surprised at Fang Yuan selling some Gu Immortal souls.
  857.  
  858. "This is a featherman Gu Immortal's soul." When Lang Ya land spirit inspected it, he was slightly surprised. Variant humans were suppressed, variant human Gu Immortals were extremely rare. He had not expected Fang Yuan to have a featherman Gu Immortal's soul.
  859.  
  860. "This is your kill?" Lang Ya land spirit casually asked.
  861.  
  862. Fang Yuan smiled: "Right."
  863.  
  864. This Gu Immortal soul was of a featherman, Zheng Ling, the previous soul was Xue Song Zi's.
  865.  
  866. Lang Ya Sect was a hairy man sect, regarding an unknown featherman Gu Immortal's soul, Lang Ya land spirit decided to take it and did not have the intention to investigate further.
  867.  
  868. Thus, Fang Yuan gained several hundred contribution points.
  869.  
  870. Immediately afterwards, he brought out a third Gu Immortal soul.
  871.  
  872. Lang Ya land spirit smiled: "It seems you intend to sell a lot today. Alright, just take out all the Gu Immortal souls you want to sell."
  873.  
  874. "Alright." Fang Yuan started taking out Gu Immortal souls one after the other.
  875.  
  876. He truly had many Gu Immortal souls.
  877.  
  878. There were souls of Dong Fang Chang Fan, Xue Song Zi, Zheng Ling and others from before. Later, in Hei Fan grotto-heaven, he killed a group. Then finally, he received even more souls in the turbulent flow sea area.
  879.  
  880. When Fang Yuan took out three Gu Immortal souls in a row, Lang Ya land spirit smiled.
  881.  
  882. When Fang Yuan took out six, Lang Ya land spirit was surprised, he subconsciously stood a little from his seat, as if he wanted to come closer to check.
  883.  
  884. When Fang Yuan took out the tenth Gu Immortal soul, Lang Ya land spirit's expression changed, he started pointing at Fang Yuan: "How did you kill so many people?"
  885.  
  886. Fang Yuan smiled: "It was just luck."
  887.  
  888. He then continued to take out Gu Immortal souls.
  889.  
  890. Finally, when Lang Ya land spirit saw Gu Immortal souls all around in the surroundings, he was extremely shocked.
  891.  
  892. "I finally understand why you are not able to blend in with humans and sided with us variant humans!" Lang Ya land spirit was left speechless.
  893.  
  894. "You only have rank six cultivation!" Lang Ya land spirit knew details about Fang Yuan, because familiar face was given to Fang Yuan by him.
  895.  
  896. "How long has it been since you became an immortal? You also still had to travel around here and there to revive yourself. Killing so many people, you are simply like Spectral Soul Demon Venerable when he was young."
  897.  
  898. Fang Yuan gave a forced smile when he heard the name Spectral Soul: "I am contributing all these souls to the sect, besides this, I also have many cultivation insights, Gu recipes of all paths, Immortal Gu recipes, killer moves and immortal killer moves. Even battlefield killer moves as well as up-to-date maps of each region, which will make it more convenient for my fellow sect members to move in the outside world."
  899.  
  900. Fang Yuan was undergoing a huge sale!
  901.  
  902. Lang Ya blessed land's history was extremely long, it had incomparably rich treasures which were even coveted by Heavenly Court and always in the minds of Shadow Sect.
  903.  
  904. But Fang Yuan had killed so many people, and the things he obtained from soul searching were also extremely abundant.
  905.  
  906. Most of the treasures in Lang Ya blessed land were payment received in the past by Long Hair Ancestor by refining Gu for others. While some were items purchased by Lang Ya land spirit through treasure yellow heaven.
  907.  
  908. Among these treasures, the former were stored ages ago, Long Hair Ancestor was a person from three hundred thousand years ago, a figure of the Medieval Antiquity Era.
  909.  
  910. And the latter could be sold at treasure yellow heaven, one could imagine that the top quality goods among them were sparse, although they would also have rare items.
  911.  
  912. As for these things Fang Yuan contributed, most of them were the entire foundation of the Gu Immortals, these things were as precious as life to them. Not to mention that they were new creations that would also not be sold for no reason in treasure yellow heaven.
  913.  
  914. In this regard, Lang Ya land spirit did not reject any offers.
  915.  
  916. He was different from the previous Lang Ya land spirit, the previous Lang Ya land spirit was only interested in refining Gu, while he was brimming with ambitions, creating Lang Ya Sect and wholeheartedly trying to make hairy men the rulers of the world, restoring their glory from the Immemorial Antiquity Era and Remote Antiquity Era.
  917.  
  918. Currently, Lang Ya Sect primarily used refinement path, most of the hairy man Gu Immortals cultivated transformation path as well.
  919.  
  920. Lang Ya Sect wanted to become a large sect, completing Lang Ya land spirit's ambition, for this they needed to incorporate various kinds of things and possess Gu Immortals of all paths. Like the great Huang Jin tribe super forces of Northern Plains, the ten great ancient sects of Central Continent and so on.
  921.  
  922. Fang Yuan's sect contribution points rose steeply.
  923.  
  924. In another cloud city.
  925.  
  926. Twelfth Hair was in the midst of refining Gu.
  927.  
  928. "Oh no, there is an error!" Suddenly, his expression changed as the fire he was controlling suddenly weakened.
  929.  
  930. He quickly activated Gu worms, spurting out blood into the fire.
  931.  
  932. Whoosh.
  933.  
  934. The fire burned high once again, Twelfth Hair was pale, his body shivering uncontrollably. He had just been injured by the backlash caused by failing in Gu refinement, blood was slowly seeping out of his seven orifices, causing the hair on his whole body to moisten with blood.
  935.  
  936. His wide-opened eyes were filled with traces of blood, as they firmly focused on the fire.
  937.  
  938. After a while, the burning fire suddenly erupted and disappeared.
  939.  
  940. The refinement path Gu formation opened up, revealing over a hundred self will Gu.
  941.  
  942. The hairy man Gu Immortals raised by the previous Lang Ya land spirit had extremely weak battle strength, but had strong Gu refinement ability.
  943.  
  944. These self will Gu were only mortal Gu but they were rank five. Twelfth Hair could refine over a hundred of these rank five self will Gu at once, revealing his extraordinary refinement path attainment.
  945.  
  946. Twelfth Hair thought to himself that it was a close shave, he rejoiced: "Fortunately, I sacrificed myself to make up for the mistake. Otherwise, these self will Gu would be destroyed, not only would it waste the effort I spent over these last few days to refine these Gu, I would also have to compensate for it with three times the refinement materials."
  947.  
  948. To increase the production of self will Gu, Fang Yuan not only used his sect contribution points to attract other hairy man Gu Immortals to refine them for him, he also supplied them immortal materials out of his own pockets, letting these hairy man Gu Immortals use these immortal materials to refine mortal Gu.
  949.  
  950. The hairy man Gu Immortals no longer had disdain and disgust towards Fang Yuan like before.
  951.  
  952. Fang Yuan possessed rank eight battle strength, causing these hairy man Gu Immortals to be filled with respect. Moreover, after such a strong financial ability was revealed, these hairy man Gu Immortals accepted the difference between them and Fang Yuan even more.
  953.  
  954. Strong dizziness assaulted Twelfth Hair's mind.
  955.  
  956. "Refining self will Gu eleven times without pausing is truly too consuming on the body and mind. The mistake just now is a warning that I need to rest. I need to quickly recover and accept some of these self will Gu refinement assignments later to earn more immortal essence stones."
  957.  
  958. Twelfth Hair had a bitter expression when he thought of immortal essence stones, heaving a deep sigh.
  959.  
  960. "Desolate beasts are not easy to raise."
  961.  
  962. "These desolate beasts all have great appetites, there is a huge burden on me every month to feed and raise them!"
  963.  
  964. "More importantly, beast enslavement Immortal Gu is only lent to me, every time I borrow it, I will have to pay with sect contribution points according to the period of time."
  965.  
  966. "Considering the long term, I definitely need to buy this beast enslavement Immortal Gu. But rank six beast enslavement Immortal Gu needs up to ten thousand sect contribution points…"
  967.  
  968. Twelfth Hair took out an information path Gu worm.
  969.  
  970. This Gu worm had one use, to display the sect contribution points of all Gu Immortals in Lang Ya Sect and rank them accordingly.
  971.  
  972. Simply put, it was Lang Ya Sect's contribution list.
  973.  
  974. Twelfth Hair looked into it with his consciousness and easily found his name in the upper half of the list.
  975.  
  976. Then he saw a series of numbers beside his name.
  977.  
  978. "Over six hundred sect contribution points, but I am still way too far from my target!" Twelfth Hair gave a bitter smile, feeling he had a long way to go.
  979.  
  980. "But the other hairy man Gu Immortals are also similar to me, some are even worse than me."
  981.  
  982. "My advantage lies in that I cultivate enslavement path as well, and now already have several desolate beasts with me. I can obtain sect contribution points more easily than others."
  983.

  985.  
  986. Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
  987.  
  988.  
  989.  
  990. "That's right, this is my advantage, I need to prioritize my strengths from now on and make full use of my talents in battle."
  991.  
  992. "I can use this to break the deadlock and drive up my cultivation speed."
  993.  
  994. "According to this development, my strength will continue to grow and the sect will need me more often. When I have strength like Elder Fang Yuan, the sect contribution points will be solely mine to take!"
  995.  
  996. "Cheer up, these days will keep on improving, Twelfth Hair, you need to continue working hard and reach your peak in life!"
  997.  
  998. Twelfth Hair's mood changed, and his fighting spirit gradually returned.
  999.  
  1000. As he thought of Fang Yuan, he subconsciously glanced at the first name of Lang Ya Sect's contribution list.
  1001.  
  1002. Last time, because of the four races alliance, Fang Yuan had obtained a thousand sect contribution points which had caused the hairy man Gu Immortals' mouths to water in envy.
  1003.  
  1004. But recently, because Fang Yuan had issued large numbers of Gu refinement tasks, his sect contribution points had been continuing to dwindle, and quickly at that.
  1005.  
  1006. Fang Yuan's name still occupied first on the list, but the gap with the second ranked hairy man Gu Immortal was getting smaller and smaller.
  1007.  
  1008. A lot of hairy man Gu Immortals were waiting for the time when Fang Yuan's name was surpassed.
  1009.  
  1010. Fang Yuan was a human Gu Immortal possessing rank eight battle strength, surpassing him at the contribution list would give a different sensation to the hairy man Gu Immortals.
  1011.  
  1012. It would be an enormous glory!
  1013.  
  1014. However, the next moment, Twelfth Hair's whole body suddenly stiffened.
  1015.  
  1016. He remained still like a stone statue.
  1017.  
  1018. Because he saw the number behind Fang Yuan's name.
  1019.  
  1020. "Over fifteen thousand sect contribution points, how could it be?!" Twelfth Hair almost felt like he was hallucinating.
  1021.  
  1022. Ever since Lang Ya Sect was established, there had been no one who had obtained so many sect contribution points.
  1023.  
  1024. At most, at one time, Fang Yuan's sect contribution points had reached above two thousand, before it started rapidly falling.
  1025.  
  1026. Now, Fang Yuan's sect contribution points had passed fifteen thousand!
  1027.  
  1028. Unbelievable!
  1029.  
  1030. This was an unprecedented record!
  1031.  
  1032. Twelfth Hair's heart shook wildly, but the following scene made him even more shocked.
  1033.  
  1034. Fang Yuan's sect contribution points were continuously rising!
  1035.  
  1036. Fifteen thousand, eighteen thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand… fifty thousand, sixty thousand…
  1037.  
  1038. The number kept on rising steeply!
  1039.  
  1040. "It surpassed… eighty thousand!" Twelfth Hair was stupefied at the sight. What made him even more astonished was that Fang Yuan's sect contribution points still showed no signs of stopping!
  1041.  
  1042. When it reached over ninety thousand, suddenly, Fang Yuan's total sect contribution points decreased by over seventy thousand!
  1043.  
  1044. Only over ten thousand was left now.
  1045.  
  1046. "What is happening?"
  1047.  
  1048. "Could it be, I actually refined Gu so much that I am starting to hallucinate?"
  1049.  
  1050. "This, this is a dream?"
  1051.  
  1052. "Ah, no!"
  1053.  
  1054. Twelfth Hair suddenly shook and snapped back to awareness.
  1055.  
  1056. "Over seventy thousand sect contribution points suddenly disappeared, Fang Yuan definitely exchanged for an Immortal Gu. No, he did not exchange for my beast enslavement Immortal Gu, right?"
  1057.  
  1058. Twelfth Hair quickly took out another information path Gu worm and placed his consciousness in it.
  1059.  
  1060. After inspecting, he let out a heavy breath of relief: "So he did not exchange for beast enslavement Immortal Gu, but a rank seven Immortal Gu. It is good as long as it is not beast enslavement Immortal Gu."
  1061.  
  1062. That was seriously a huge scare!
  1063.  
  1064. Twelfth Hair patted his chest, his whole body easing up.
  1065.  
  1066. But the moment he relaxed, his eyes rolled backwards as he fainted on the spot.
  1067.  
  1068. He had suffered injuries during the Gu refinement process, and his mood had swung up and down at this moment, he naturally would fall unconscious after relaxing.
  1069.  
  1070. Achieving his target, Fang Yuan returned to his cloud city.
  1071.  
  1072. Inside a secret room, he took out a completely new Immortal Gu.
  1073.  
  1074. This Gu resembled light purple colored fog in the form of a dragon, it did not have a fixed shape and was floating around.
  1075.  
  1076. Rank seven Immortal Gu — Dragon Breath!
  1077.  
  1078. Fang Yuan had finally chosen sword dragon transformation because Lang Ya Sect's treasury had this Immortal Gu.
  1079.  
  1080. To exchange for this Immortal Gu, Fang Yuan had to sell all his Gu Immortal souls along with large amounts of cultivation information he had obtained from soul searching.
  1081.  
  1082. Naturally, Fang Yuan had withheld some of the contents. Like Dong Fang Chang Fan's wisdom path methods, Hei Fan true inheritance's important details, and so on.
  1083.  
  1084. This had sharply raised Fang Yuan's sect contribution points to above ninety thousand. In the near future, this amount would be Fang Yuan's peak, difficult to surpass.
  1085.  
  1086. Then, Fang Yuan used over seventy thousand sect contribution points to exchange for the rank seven transformation path Immortal Gu, Dragon Breath.
  1087.  
  1088. In just a short while, his sect contribution points had fallen to over ten thousand.
  1089.  
  1090. But he still occupied first place on the contribution list.
  1091.  
  1092. The second ranked Gu Immortal on the contribution list only had four digits in terms of contribution points.
  1093.  
  1094. The gap had been widened by a huge margin.
  1095.  
  1096. Fang Yuan's position was firmly in place like a mountain.
  1097.  
  1098. Naturally, Fang Yuan did not care about the sect contribution list.
  1099.  
  1100. He also did not know Twelfth Hair had received a great impact from this event and had fallen unconscious.
  1101.  
  1102. If he knew, Fang Yuan would think he was over-thinking it.
  1103.  
  1104. Not all Immortal Gu in Lang Ya blessed land could be exchanged. Beast enslavement Immortal Gu was on the exchange list, but Lang Ya land spirit had clearly left it behind for Twelfth Hair.
  1105.  
  1106. Even if Fang Yuan wanted to exchange for it, he would not be able to.
  1107.  
  1108. Besides this, rank seven Immortal Gu Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus was also not for sale.
  1109.  
  1110. This Immortal Gu was originally Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable's Immortal Gu, later it was refined by Long Hair Ancestor up to rank eight and was merged into the rank eight Immortal Gu House Refinement Cauldron.
  1111.  
  1112. Some time ago, Shadow Sect had invaded Lang Ya blessed land, destroying Refinement Cauldron and seizing many of the core Immortal Gu. Although Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus remained, it had been damaged and had fallen from rank eight to rank seven.
  1113.  
  1114. If Fang Yuan wanted to exchange for this Immortal Gu, he would have to pay a very large price that could move Lang Ya land spirit's mind.
  1115.  
  1116. However, Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus would not be of much help to Fang Yuan. He had calculated that after he raised his cultivation to rank seven and his immortal essence started producing red date immortal essence, it would be sufficient.
  1117.  
  1118. It was not worth it to pay a greater price for just Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus.
  1119.  
  1120. Fang Yuan spent some time before he successfully integrated this rank seven dragon breath Gu into his immortal killer move, sword dragon transformation.
  1121.  
  1122. Transformation path immortal killer moves were essentially very simple. Dragon breath Gu was a natural component of sword dragon transformation.
  1123.  
  1124. What's more, Fang Yuan was a transformation path grandmaster.
  1125.  
  1126. With this rank seven dragon breath Immortal Gu, Fang Yuan simply did not need any dragon breath mortal Gu.
  1127.  
  1128. Like in Hei Fan's true inheritance, Hei Fan had really wanted to obtain immortal level day Gu and month Gu. Because then, when he activated days pass like years and similar immortal killer moves, he would not need to spend so many mortal day Gu and month Gu.
  1129.  
  1130. Having a relevant Immortal Gu made it extremely convenient.
  1131.  
  1132. It also reduced the difficulty of controlling the killer move.
  1133.  
  1134. Its effect would also have a large boost!
  1135.  
  1136. Taking a deep breath, Fang Yuan tried sword dragon transformation again.
  1137.  
  1138. Silver light burst out, shining towards the sky.
  1139.  
  1140. Just looking at this, Fang Yuan knew that sword dragon transformation's might had increased by multiple times.
  1141.  
  1142. From within the silvery light, a sword dragon revealed its figure. Its body was more than double the size of before, reaching over forty feet.
  1143.  
  1144. Its eyes were still white, its scales were much wider and thicker than before, there were now two more claws, reaching a total of four claws now. The dragon horn protruded out further, piercing towards the sky.
  1145.  
  1146. Fang Yuan inspected all over and saw that every aspect had received a huge boost in quality.
  1147.  
  1148. "After adding the rank seven dragon breath Gu, this is now an ancient desolate beast level sword dragon." Fang Yuan was well aware.
  1149.  
  1150. As such, this immortal killer move could be used at the blood battle martial competition.
  1151.  
  1152. The previous sword dragon transformation would not work.
  1153.  
  1154. It could only be used to bully some ordinary rank six Gu Immortals.
  1155.  
  1156. The current ancient sword dragon had the qualifications to match against rank seven Gu Immortals.
  1157.  
  1158. Next was the most important part.
  1159.  
  1160. Fang Yuan was unavoidably a little nervous.
  1161.  
  1162. He lightly stretched out his dragon body and flew to a completely new dark inkstone.
  1163.  
  1164. Dragon breath!
  1165.  
  1166. Fang Yuan opened his mouth and breathed out.
  1167.  
  1168. In that instant, a pure white sword light flashed past.
  1169.  
  1170. Crack, a crisp sound was heard, as the dark inkstone was cut in two.
  1171.  
  1172. Not only this, the sword light still had strength remaining to destroy the whole secret room.
  1173.  
  1174. Fang Yuan's cloud city shook intensely, giving off muffled noises as large numbers of Gu worms that formed the secret room died instantly.
  1175.  
  1176. "I have already controlled my strength, the dark inkstone already bore most of the dragon breath, only a small part of its power was leaked out." Intense joy flashed past the ancient sword dragon's eyes.
  1177.  
  1178. Fang Yuan had only displayed a small portion of his strength, but his surrounding environment actually was unable to endure it.
  1179.  
  1180. Although the cloud city's structure was exquisite and hairy man Gu Immortals had spent immense mental effort to make it, it was after all only a mortal Gu house, and could not endure the remaining power of the ancient sword dragon's breath.
  1181.  
  1182. Green grape immortal essence continued to be consumed to maintain the form of the ancient sword dragon.
  1183.  
  1184. Clearly, the immortal essence expenditure had increased by many times.
  1185.  
  1186. Where there are gains, there are losses.
  1187.  
  1188. After all, adding rank seven Immortal Gu dragon breath had increased the level of the immortal killer move, sword dragon transformation, immortal essence being expended rapidly was an inevitable outcome.
  1189.  
  1190. "I can no longer practice in the cloud city. Lang Ya blessed land has many observers, but if I go out of Lang Ya blessed land I will receive even more attention from heaven's will."
  1191.  
  1192. "It seems I still need to place my sovereign immortal aperture and properly test the limits of ancient sword dragon transformation."
  1193.  
  1194. "The dragon breath I send out has already reached rank seven battle strength, its effect is outstanding and the expenditure is still small. How powerful will it be when I use sword marks targeting death, dark assassination and triple layered sword wave in my ancient sword dragon form?"
  1195.  
  1196. Fang Yuan was feeling anticipation.
  1197.  
  1198. He resolutely took action, immediately flying out of the cloud city, going through the super Gu formation and teleporting to the outside world.
  1199.  
  1200. "Fang Yuan has left. He actually exchanged for dragon breath Immortal Gu, what is the reason?" Sixth Hair was secretly activating investigative methods, paying close attention until the super Gu formation activated and Fang Yuan's figure disappeared from his perception.
  1201.  
  1202. After Sixth Hair knew the change in the sect contribution points list, he was filled with unease.
  1203.  
  1204. Fang Yuan's development speed had surpassed his expectations again. Moreover, he did not understand the direction of Fang Yuan's growth.
  1205.  
  1206. "Fang Yuan naturally won't exchange for an Immortal Gu that has no use to him. No, I need to report this information to Lord Ying Wu Xie quickly." Sixth Hair was filled with worries.

  1211.  
  1212.  
  1213.  
  1214. Sun was shining bright in the sky of Northern Plains, with no clouds to be seen in the surroundings.
  1215.  
  1216. However, at Blood Plain, starlight shone brilliantly, as if stars filled the sky.
  1217.  
  1218. Golden Dawn Hall was quietly floating in the air, it stood majestically, no matter how much turbulence was going on outside, it remained lofty and unmoved.
  1219.  
  1220. In contrast, the Gu Immortals on Chu Du's side were all standing on clouds, their expressions looking unsightly or filled with worries.
  1221.  
  1222. Chu Du was expressionless, but his gaze that looked at the battle was extremely heavy.
  1223.  
  1224. "Immortal Wang is going to lose." Chu Du sighed internally.
  1225.  
  1226. In the center of the battlefield, Immortal Wang was fighting with the righteous path Gu Immortal Ye Lui Qun Xing!
  1227.  
  1228. Immortal Wang had already transformed into a heaven swallowing hound, charging left and right with astonishing might.
  1229.  
  1230. The heaven swallowing hound was an immemorial desolate beast, but Immortal Wang was only a rank seven Gu Immortal, this transformation path immortal killer move also did not have a relevant rank eight Immortal Gu in it. So, this heaven swallowing hound's battle strength was only at rank seven level.
  1231.  
  1232. And Immortal Wang's opponent, Ye Lui Qun Xing, was tall and thin like a bamboo pole. He had three strands of hair as a beard and had a yellowish-white complexion. Right now, he was far away from the heaven swallowing hound, hundreds of star fragments were flying around him, shining with brilliant light, dying the sky a color of blue.
  1233.  
  1234. Immortal Wang's heaven swallowing hound transformation used all its strength to attack.
  1235.  
  1236. However, countless star fragments, big and small, tightly surrounded him.
  1237.  
  1238. Of these star fragments, small ones were the size of a lantern, while the big ones were the size of an elephant. They kept on flying around, a small portion were encircling Immortal Wang with dizzying speed, while the larger portion were encircling Ye Lui Qun Xing, moving slowly in a mysterious trajectory.
  1239.  
  1240. Plop.
  1241.  
  1242. A muffled sound echoed, a star fragment firmly collided against Immortal Wang's body.
  1243.  
  1244. The heaven swallowing hound's movement slowed, and exposed a flaw when it tried to dodge.
  1245.  
  1246. Boom boom boom.
  1247.  
  1248. Three muffled sounds resounded as this opportunity was taken, star fragments collided against Immortal Wang fiercely.
  1249.  
  1250. The heaven swallowing hound let out a low growl, coughing out a large amount of blood, its feet staggered and almost fell down to the ground.
  1251.  
  1252. Any Gu Immortal with eyes could see who was in control of the situation.
  1253.  
  1254. Immortal Wang was the one attacking, but was in an absolute disadvantage from start to finish.
  1255.  
  1256. And the defending Ye Lui Qun Xing was the one who held the upper hand, putting himself behind layers of defense.
  1257.  
  1258. This battle tactic was naturally a correct one.
  1259.  
  1260. One often had to choose long range battle when dealing with transformation path Gu Immortals.
  1261.  
  1262. Because the Gu Immortal that transformed into desolate beast, ancient desolate beast or even immemorial desolate beast, would have a strong and sturdy body, just relying on their transformed body's quality, their battle strength would increase to a terrifying level.
  1263.  
  1264. Gu Immortals of other paths mostly had human bodies. Their physical qualities were weak, even if they had powerful defensive methods, they did not want to put themselves in such a dangerous situation where they were fighting with their weakness against a transformation path Gu Immortal's strength.
  1265.  
  1266. The dominance was already clear, Ye Lui Qun Xing was in an impregnable position.
  1267.  
  1268. He spoke in a clear voice: "It is useless, Immortal Wang. My immortal killer move was created by taking Dong Fang Chang Fan's myriad star fireflies as a reference, the flying trajectory is extremely profound and inscrutable. Previously, six star fragments could completely obstruct you. Now, there are at least thirty-six star fragments around you, how will you break through?"
  1269.  
  1270. This Ye Lui Qun Xing was also a person with an interesting past.
  1271.  
  1272. He had challenged Dong Fang Chang Fan, and had suffered defeat after defeat, but had still persisted in challenging him. Dong Fang Chang Fan was a righteous path figure, the number one wisdom path Gu Immortal of Northern Plains who had single-handedly led Dong Fang tribe to prominence.
  1273.  
  1274. Ye Lui Qun Xing's defeats did not make Northern Plains' Gu Immortals feel he was weak.
  1275.  
  1276. Instead, they very much appreciated him fighting back despite the repeated setbacks, and his steady, unwavering spirit.
  1277.  
  1278. As one of the leading figures of the righteous path, Dong Fang Chang Fan could not lay a heavy hand on Ye Lui Qun Xing, who was similarly of Huang Jin bloodline.
  1279.  
  1280. There was even one time when after he defeated Ye Lui Qun Xing, he personally instructed him regarding some secrets of myriad star fireflies.
  1281.  
  1282. Ye Lui Qun Xing treated the guidance as a precious treasure, immediately going into closed cultivation.
  1283.  
  1284. Unknown to him, this was precisely Dong Fang Chang Fan's scheme.
  1285.  
  1286. Dong Fang Chang Fan had not only gotten rid of the annoying Ye Lui Qun Xing, this also expressed his goodwill to Ye Lui tribe, and had smoothly accomplished an instance of collaboration with Ye Lui tribe, gaining large amounts of benefits.
  1287.  
  1288. Ye Lui Qun Xing had originally felt that Dong Fang Chang Fan was a thorn in his eyes, but having obtained benefits from Dong Fang Chang Fan, he did not feel he could shamelessly challenge Dong Fang Chang Fan again. After coming out of his closed cultivation, he chose to focus hard on his own development and did not even find trouble with other Gu Immortals of Dong Fang tribe.
  1289.  
  1290. As such, this trump card killer move of his clearly bore resemblance to myriad star fireflies.
  1291.  
  1292. Myriad star fireflies was Dong Fang Chang Fan's killer move, which was famous throughout the whole of Northern Plains' Gu Immortal world.
  1293.  
  1294. Ye Lui Qun Xing's move, however, treated the star fragments as the main body, it could be considered as him creating his own unique method.
  1295.  
  1296. A real star was extremely huge, Fang Yuan had been using star eyes Immortal Gu up until now, and had only managed to refine one star.
  1297.  
  1298. Immortal Wang's heaven swallowing hound transformation kept on coughing up blood, and was struck by more and more star fragments. He could not even retort, he was dizzy and was heavily injured, moreover, his immortal essence expenditure had reached an enormous amount.
  1299.  
  1300. The immortals on Chu Du's side showed even more unsightly looks.
  1301.  
  1302. "If Immortal Wang is defeated, he would be the fourth person Ye Lui Qun Xing has defeated from our side!"
  1303.  
  1304. "His immortal killer move is truly too powerful, when it was just two or three star fragments, they can still be resisted. When fifteen star fragments appear and they work together as one, the difficulty to resist them increases by countless times. Right now, he already has a hundred star fragments, achieving complete dominance, this simply cannot be resisted."
  1305.  
  1306. Inside Golden Dawn Hall, the righteous path immortals had smiles on their faces.
  1307.  
  1308. Ye Lui Xiao Jin was watching the battle with excitement, Ye Lui Qun Xing was his senior, seeing this senior about to defeat his fourth opponent, Ye Lui Xiao Jin also felt excitement and pride.
  1309.  
  1310. On the other side, Nian Er Ping Zhi was still regulating his breathing.
  1311.  
  1312. One thing worth mentioning was that Nian Er tribe's position had already moved to the center.
  1313.  
  1314. This was because of Nian Er Ping Zhi's battle where he had killed the rank seven demonic path expert Granny Yin.
  1315.  
  1316. Many rank six geniuses and experts had the battle strength to go against rank seven. But being able to kill rank seven was a different level altogether.
  1317.  
  1318. Adding Nian Er Ping Zhi's young age to this battle achievement, this undoubtedly became even more rare.
  1319.  
  1320. By this time.
  1321.  
  1322. The allied righteous path forces, and the alliance of Chu Sect and Bai Zu, had already gone through over ten battles.
  1323.  
  1324. At the start, Chu Du had the discerning eye to send out the promising young Xue Wu Hen, who won three battles in a row, awing others.
  1325.  
  1326. Then, from the righteous path's side, Gong Wan Ting sent Nian Er Ping Zhi. Similarly a rising young genius, Nian Er Ping Zhi's battle result was even more brilliant, using the immortal killer move sword heart clarity and killing the renowned demonic path expert Granny Yin.
  1327.  
  1328. Afterwards, Gong Wan Ting negotiated with Chu Du, and the two sides temporarily stopped the battle, setting rules regarding exchange of corpses.
  1329.  
  1330. Then the battle began again, Yuan tribe of the righteous path, Meng tribe, and other tribe's Gu Immortals appeared one after the other, while Chu Du sent out Hao Zhen, Chou Lao Wu as well as some Gu Immortals of Bai Zu tribe to contest with them.
  1331.  
  1332. Perhaps it was because they were senior Gu Immortals, each side had their own victories and defeats, and suffered varying degrees of injuries, but there were no deaths.
  1333.  
  1334. Seeing the situation seemingly entering a stalemate, Gong Wan Ting pondered for a while before sending Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  1335.  
  1336. This person was a true main strength among Ye Lui tribe's force. He was an expert among rank seven Gu Immortals, although he had many losses among his battle achievements, they were against Dong Fang Chang Fan, naturally, no one would look down on him.
  1337.  
  1338. What made people especially admire him were his character and spirit. He had suffered many defeats from Dong Fang Chang Fan, but he always came back stronger.
  1339.  
  1340. Worth mentioning was that Ye Lui Hui Hong had the highest seniority, but his battle strength could not compare to Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  1341.  
  1342. The righteous path paid attention to seniority, unlike the demonic path which only looked at strength.
  1343.  
  1344. Finally, Chu Du spoke: "Alright, this battle is our loss."
  1345.  
  1346. Immortal Wang retreated with a shameful expression.
  1347.  
  1348. Ye Lui Qun Xing also did not forcibly go after his life, after all, Immortal Wang still had the ability to protect himself and it would give enough time for Chu Du to come help.
  1349.  
  1350. Immortal Wang was pale, his mood extremely complicated.
  1351.  
  1352. He was the fourth opponent of Ye Lui Qun Xing and had originally thought of having gotten an easy opportunity, but the result was that Ye Lui Qun Xing's battle strength had not fallen even after three battles.
  1353.  
  1354. Immortal Wang returned to his human form and walked towards Chu Du, saying in a heavy voice: "That Ye Lui Qun Xing's immortal killer move is extremely ingenious. His immortal essence expenditure is definitely small, and the star fragments have mutual attraction force between them, creating a good deal of starlight magnetic force, I am afraid it would not be easy to discern the mysteries of this killer move unless one is a star path Gu Immortal."
  1355.  
  1356. "The opponent would be implicated by these star fragments. These star fragments are very fast and sometimes they would suddenly form a formless force which skewed my direction, making me lose control over myself many times. Now that I think of it, Ye Lui Qun Xing was weakest in the first battle. Now, he has already released a hundred star fragments, forming an array for battle. The ones who will go later will lose many advantages, and would find it very difficult to go against this array."
  1357.  
  1358. Immortal Wang's tone was sincere, these were his sincere words, they were also reasons given to excuse himself and not be held at fault.
  1359.  
  1360. Chu Du nodded and patted Immortal Wang's shoulder: "No need to say much, it is good that you returned safely."
  1361.  
  1362. It was a simple action, but this action almost made Immortal Wang's eyes tear up.
  1363.  
  1364. "Who wants to come fight next!" At this time, Ye Lui Qun Xing called out.
  1365.  
  1366. "It seems this person still does not want to retreat and wants to fight his fifth battle!" Chu Du's expression slightly changed, killing intent flashing in his eyes.
  1367.  
  1368. The immortals behind him started whispering.
  1369.  
  1370. "He has already defeated four people in a row, he still seems to have strength remaining."
  1371.  
  1372. "Immortal Wang's strength is outstanding, he transformed into a heaven swallowing hound but was still unable to win, sigh!"
  1373.  
  1374. Bai Zu tribe's Gu Immortals were silent.
  1375.  
  1376. Bai Zu Wei was already dead, what they were good at was not individual battle strength, but Green City Rampage.
  1377.  
  1378. Hao Zhen and Chou Lao Wu's wind thunder roar was renowned throughout Northern Plains, it could be considered a trump card that could pressure the opponents and make them feel apprehensive. It was only that they had already battled separately and still bore some injuries.
  1379.  
  1380. When Gu Immortals were injured, because of the conflict of dao marks, they were very difficult to heal.
  1381.  
  1382. For a moment, Chu Du actually found that he had fallen into an awkward situation of having no experts to send.
  1383.  
  1384. Comparatively, in the righteous path, experts filled Golden Dawn Hall, while Chu Du's side was only an alliance of the newly established Bai Zu tribe and his sect, they indeed had few members and were seriously stretched out.

  1389.  
  1390.  
  1391.  
  1392. "Do I have to go myself?"
  1393.  
  1394. Facing the awkward situation of having no experts to send, Chu Du unavoidably had such a thought.
  1395.  
  1396. He could naturally take the stage and also had the confidence to win against Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  1397.  
  1398. But what would it look like when Chu Du, as the strongest expert on his side, took the stage? Would it not make their side look weaker?
  1399.  
  1400. Moreover, even after he wins against Ye Lui Qun Xing, the other side would definitely continue to send other Gu Immortals. Gong Wan Ting, Yao tribe's Yao Yuan Ying, Guan tribe's Guan Yang, Nu Er tribe's Nu Er Gu and Nu Er Qian, all of these people were experts who Chu Du needed to pay attention to.
  1401.  
  1402. Two fists cannot rival four palms.
  1403.  
  1404. Chu Du could win one battle, two battles, three battles, but could he guarantee he would win all the battles?
  1405.  
  1406. Chu Du fell into silence.
  1407.  
  1408. "What, no one wants to fight? We have just reached this stage and there is already nobody left?" Ye Lui Qun Xing did not let go of this chance to mock them.
  1409.  
  1410. Xue Wu Hen could not endure this provocation, he was a very prideful person. He requested to be sent by Chu Du: "Let me go deal with this Ye Lui Qun Xing."
  1411.  
  1412. However, Xue Wu Hen was only at rank six, how could Chu Du let him go? Xue Wu Hen might be able to battle rank seven, but the other party was an expert among rank sevens.
  1413.  
  1414. Chu Du slowly shook his head.
  1415.  
  1416. Right at this moment, his eyes suddenly brightened, because an information path Gu worm flew to his immortal aperture through treasure yellow heaven.
  1417.  
  1418. "Wonderful! Elder Liu Guan Yi's timing is perfect." Chu Du sent his consciousness into the Gu worm and after absorbing the information, his brows immediately relaxed.
  1419.  
  1420. He had confidence in Liu Guan Yi! He had always thought Fang Yuan's strength was only second to his in Chu Sect.
  1421.  
  1422. Especially when they made the trip to Crazed Demon Cave, Fang Yuan's performance had left a deep impression on Chu Du.
  1423.  
  1424. "Be patient. My Chu Sect's second supreme elder is about to arrive. Ye Lui Qun Xing, why are you in such a rush, enjoy your moment of victory for a while longer." Chu Du chuckled as he said in a plain tone.
  1425.  
  1426. "Chu Sect's second supreme elder?"
  1427.  
  1428. "Chu Du is the first supreme elder, doesn't it mean this second supreme elder is only second to him?"
  1429.  
  1430. "This person is very mysterious, no one knows where he comes from, and we have very limited information on him."
  1431.  
  1432. Both sides' Gu Immortals discussed.
  1433.  
  1434. The righteous path Gu Immortals in Golden Dawn Hall started discussing and exchanging information on Fang Yuan.
  1435.  
  1436. "Think about that Xue Wu Hen, what is strange about them having Liu Guan Yi?" Nian Er Yi Fang caressed his beard, speaking unconcernedly.
  1437.  
  1438. "So what if he is stronger? At most, he would have rank seven peak battle strength, our side is a gathering of experts and geniuses." Ye Lui Hui Hong laughed.
  1439.  
  1440. Gong Wan Ting spoke softly, her voice lingering around the whole of Golden Dawn Hall: "Chu Du is not blind, this person is placed above Hao Zhen and Chou Lao Wu. He is Chu Sect's second supreme elder, we should assume that he possesses an outstanding aspect."
  1441.  
  1442. Xue Wu Hen's eyes brightened, having many expectations regarding Fang Yuan.
  1443.  
  1444. "Elder Hao Zhen, how is Elder Liu Guan Yi's strength?" One Hei tribe Gu Immortal asked. Naturally, this Hei tribe Gu Immortal had now already changed his surname to Bai Zu. He had not participated in the battle of Iron Eagle blessed land, and it was not appropriate for him to ask Bai Zu tribe's Gu Immortals, Bai Zu Wei had died in the battle, and this had become almost like a taboo topic in Bai Zu tribe.
  1445.  
  1446. Hao Zhen and Chou Lao Wu were respectively Chu Sect's third and forth supreme elder. Actually, they were uncomfortable at being underneath Fang Yuan, but right now, they could not damage their own sect's reputation.
  1447.  
  1448. "He claims to be a transformation path Gu Immortal."
  1449.  
  1450. "But we have never seen him use any transformation killer moves. Even in Hei Fan grotto-heaven, when we resisted the attacks of Heavenly Lord, it was like that."
  1451.  
  1452. The surrounding Gu Immortals could not help but draw in deep breaths.
  1453.  
  1454. The words of Hao Zhen and Chou Lao Wu made people unavoidably think towards one aspect.
  1455.  
  1456. "It seems this Elder Liu Guan Yi is quite amazing! Even the invasion of Heavenly Lord Bai Zu did not make him use all his strength?"
  1457.  
  1458. "This was the person who first intruded Iron Eagle blessed land and seized almost all the eagle nests." A Gu Immortal of Bai Zu bloodline was feeling complicated at this moment.
  1459.  
  1460. "He has arrived." Chu Du suddenly spoke.
  1461.  
  1462. The immortals behind him followed Chu Du's movement and turned around, looking behind them.
  1463.  
  1464. Inside Golden Dawn Hall, the righteous path immortals also cast their gazes over.
  1465.  
  1466. A multicolored cloud was flying rapidly, upon which a young-looking Gu Immortal stood at the front with his head held high.
  1467.  
  1468. He wore a white robe, the wide sleeves constantly fluttered backwards due to the wind.
  1469.  
  1470. He had long black hair and a jade-like complexion, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, his nose bridge was tall, and his skin was white like snow. He had a light smile on his face, appearing relaxed and unfettered, and was extremely handsome, even a man would be moved by his appearance.
  1471.  
  1472. Just one glance at Fang Yuan left a deep impression on these immortals.
  1473.  
  1474. "Elder Liu, you have finally come." Chu Du smiled brightly, flying over to welcome him.
  1475.  
  1476. "Domination Immortal Chu Du personally went to receive him?"
  1477.  
  1478. Seeing this scene, many Gu Immortals were shaken, instantly, Fang Yuan's status had risen by multiple levels in their hearts.
  1479.  
  1480. "What are the origins of this Liu Guan Yi? What has he done to deserve such treatment from Domination Immortal?"
  1481.  
  1482. The righteous path Gu Immortals looked at each other, as they started to pay more importance to Fang Yuan's arrival.
  1483.  
  1484. "This information path Gu worm records the battle scenes from earlier, look at it quickly." Chu Du flew in front of Fang Yuan, and secretly handed an information path mortal Gu to Fang Yuan.
  1485.  
  1486. Fang Yuan silently accepted it.
  1487.  
  1488. Chu Du treated him as an equal, after the Crazed Demon Agreement, Chu Du's and Fang Yuan's relationship had become much closer.
  1489.  
  1490. The group of immortals subconsciously went silent, patiently watching Fang Yuan slowly fly towards the battle.
  1491.  
  1492. "This person is Ye Lui Qun Xing, he primarily cultivates star path. He has already defeated four people on our side, we need you to show your might and defeat him." Chu Du spoke softly to Fang Yuan as he pointed at Ye Lui Qun Xing, who was standing proudly in the air.
  1493.  
  1494. Fang Yuan inwardly thought: "I came over because of this person. A star path blessed land is suitable for me to annex. Moreover, this guy has rank seven cultivation, after I annex his immortal aperture, my cultivation will immediately soar and reach rank seven, I will start producing red date immortal essence."
  1495.  
  1496. Ye Lui Qun Xing was tense.
  1497.  
  1498. Ever since Fang Yuan had appeared, he had been paying close attention to him.
  1499.  
  1500. Fang Yuan's gaze was tranquil, he could not read his expression at all.
  1501.  
  1502. After some thinking, Ye Lui Qun Xing solemnly spoke: "I am honored."
  1503.  
  1504. The immortals quietly looked at Fang Yuan, awaiting him entering the battle.
  1505.  
  1506. Fang Yuan, however, internally was shaking his head.
  1507.  
  1508. He had already read all the information in the information path Gu worm, Chu Du had given him, and knew all the moves Ye Lui Qun Xing had shown before.
  1509.  
  1510. Fang Yuan had a clear estimation of Ye Lui Qun Xing's strength.
  1511.  
  1512. He was probably at the level of experts like Unfettered Scholar and Pi Shui Han, or maybe slightly weaker, all in all, he was an expert among rank sevens.
  1513.  
  1514. Above them would be people like Domination Immortal Chu Du and Immortal Monkey King Shi Lei.
  1515.  
  1516. And above Chu Du were Feng Jiu Ge and Qin Bai Sheng after regaining his memories.
  1517.  
  1518. It was fully achievable for him to defeat Ye Lui Qun Xing with ancient sword dragon transformation.
  1519.  
  1520. But killing him would be difficult with a frontal assault. Especially under the view of the crowd and their watchful eyes, everyone was on guard against each other.
  1521.  
  1522. Let alone when the opponent was Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  1523.  
  1524. The most important thing regarding this person was this immortal killer move, not only did it expend little immortal essence, it also had terrifying offensive and defensive properties.
  1525.  
  1526. Even more praiseworthy was his mental state and nature.
  1527.  
  1528. Losses could not defeat him and could only make him stronger.
  1529.  
  1530. If this kind of person was the enemy, the best thing was to kill them.
  1531.  
  1532. Even Dong Fang Chang Fan felt a headache because he could not kill him.
  1533.  
  1534. But how to kill him?
  1535.  
  1536. Fang Yuan estimated he did not have a high chance of killing Ye Lui Qun Xing. After transforming into an ancient sword dragon, Fang Yuan's battle strength would reach the level of Unfettered Scholar. However, Fang Yuan's ability to sustain a long battle was quite poor, after all, green grape immortal essence could not compare to red date immortal essence.
  1537.  
  1538. One hundred beads of green grape immortal essence could turn into one bead of red date immortal essence. But when using rank seven Immortal Gu, the effect that could be reached with one bead of red date immortal essence required at least one hundred and thirty beads of green grape immortal essence.
  1539.  
  1540. This created a phenomenon of intensifying expenditure.
  1541.  
  1542. Gu Immortals using higher rank Immortal Gu were like children waving around a sledgehammer, it was very difficult.
  1543.  
  1544. As he pondered this, Fang Yuan spoke: "I won't fight."
  1545.  
  1546. The immortals were stunned.
  1547.  
  1548. "Why won't you fight, are you afraid?" Immortal Wang's sneering voice came from behind.
  1549.  
  1550. Ever since the Iron Eagle blessed land's battle where Fang Yuan had treated him as a scapegoat, Immortal Wang had felt hatred towards Fang Yuan. The expectant gazes of immortals at Fang Yuan, made Immortal Wang very dissatisfied. He, himself, was defeated by Ye Lui Qun Xing, and the person whom everyone's expectations were placed on was his enemy. Such a feeling left a really bad taste in his mouth.
  1551.  
  1552. Fang Yuan did not respond.
  1553.  
  1554. Chu Du, however, immediately frowned, as he turned back and gave a fierce glare at Immortal Wang.
  1555.  
  1556. Immortal Wang quickly closed his mouth, beads of cold sweat starting to seep out of his forehead.
  1557.  
  1558. Chu Du inwardly shook his head: "Immortal Wang and these other Gu Immortals were all lone immortals or demonic cultivators, they are accustomed to being unrestrained. After joining Chu Sect, their awareness has not increased much. Right now, even if he has some dissatisfaction with Liu Guan Yi, how could he reveal the internal conflicts of Chu Sect in front of the public?"
  1559.  
  1560. At the same time, Chu Du looked at Fang Yuan, he did not speak but his gaze inquired: Why won't you fight?
  1561.  
  1562. Fang Yuan gazed at Ye Lui Qun Xing, sneering: "He is too weak, I can kill him with just my spit. Do we kill chickens with an ox-cleaver? Fighting him is an insult towards my status."
  1563.  
  1564. Arrogant!
  1565.  
  1566. Way too arrogant!!
  1567.  
  1568. For a moment, the stomachs of the immortals churned, as all kinds of thoughts surged in their minds.
  1569.  
  1570. Fang Yuan looked like a quiet handsome boy, who could have thought his first few words would reveal the astonishing arrogance within him.
  1571.  
  1572. "He actually said he can win against an expert like Ye Lui Qun Xing with just his spit? Even Domination Immortal Chu Du might not be able to do it!" Nian Er Ping Zhi was displeased.
  1573.  
  1574. "He is tooting his own horn too much." Xue Wu Hen looked at Fang Yuan with a dazed look. He had always thought he was a very prideful person, but he could not compare to this person before him.
  1575.  
  1576. Fang Yuan spouted a lot of nonsense right away. His arrogance caused many people to be dissatisfied.
  1577.  
  1578. The most dissatisfied person was Ye Lui Xiao Jin.
  1579.  
  1580. He was young and full of vigor, Ye Lui Qun Xing was his tribe member, humiliating Ye Lui Qun Xing was like humiliating him.
  1581.  
  1582. Therefore, this young Gu Immortal immediately stood up and shouted loudly: "You don't dare to show your skills, but you have quite the mouth! How can you estimate the skills of my tribe's Lord Qun Xing? You are not being proud, but are intentionally saying this because you are afraid!"
  1583.

  1587.  
  1588.  
  1589.  
  1590. "I don't know if you are afraid or not, but we can all see whether you dare or not." A Bai Zu tribe Gu Immortal sneered.
  1591.  
  1592. He had pure Bai Zu bloodline, behind him was Heavenly Lord Bai Zu, even Chu Du did not have a sway over him.
  1593.  
  1594. Fang Yuan lightly glanced at this person, the latter looked back without any fear.
  1595.  
  1596. Clearly, Fang Yuan stealing the eagle nests had caused the hatred with Bai Zu tribe to be big.
  1597.  
  1598. Fang Yuan swept his gaze around, the Gu Immortals all gazed back at him with doubts, curiosity, uncertainty, anticipation and so on. Especially, Xue Wu Hen who was beside him, his gaze was shining.
  1599.  
  1600. "Not fighting."
  1601.  
  1602. "What kind of person am I?"
  1603.  
  1604. "This weakling?"
  1605.  
  1606. "Hehe, not worthy of me making a move."
  1607.  
  1608. "In the future, when my biography is written, my first battle after seclusion is against Heavenly Lord Bai Zu, but the second battle is with this thing? There won't be any splendor even if I win against such a minor character of Ye Lui tribe."
  1609.  
  1610. No matter how open-minded Ye Lui Qun Xing was, his tone unavoidably had become colder from anger: "Hmph, so much nonsense! You have said so much, come fight me if you have guts!"
  1611.  
  1612. "You don't have enough qualifications." Fang Yuan held his hands behind his back, head raised and chest out, as he looked at Ye Lui Qun Xing with unconcealed contempt.
  1613.  
  1614. Many Gu Immortals' eyes widened.
  1615.  
  1616. They really wanted to ask: Ye Lui Qun Xing actually doesn't have enough qualifications, then who has the qualifications? What qualifications do you have? I really don't understand where you are getting such confidence from!
  1617.  
  1618. You are clearly a demonic path lone cultivator, who knows where you came from. Ye Lui Qun Xing fighting you is giving you face, giving you the chance to perform and gain some glory.
  1619.  
  1620. But the person involved, Fang Yuan, clearly did not have such a thought.
  1621.  
  1622. The immortals began discussing, the situation had become noisy from the clamor.
  1623.  
  1624. They were all talking about Fang Yuan, but Fang Yuan turned a deaf ear to their words.
  1625.  
  1626. After a while, Gong Wan Ting's expression turned cold, lightly calling out: "Enough, do you all want to make the grand blood battle martial competition into a joke?"
  1627.  
  1628. The righteous path immortals immediately turned silent.
  1629.  
  1630. Gong Wan Ting then looked at Chu Du: "Could it be that your side only has troublemakers remaining? Stalling for so long will only make others ridicule you."
  1631.  
  1632. Facing the overbearing Gong Wan Ting, Chu Du did not reply, instead looking at Fang Yuan.
  1633.  
  1634. Fang Yuan ignored Chu Du's gaze and slightly turned towards the side, pointing backwards: "You."
  1635.  
  1636. "Me?" A former supreme elder of Hei tribe, currently a Bai Zu tribe Gu Immortal, was completely stumped, not having expected Fang Yuan to suddenly point towards him.
  1637.  
  1638. "Go take the fight, if he can win against you, it means he has some qualifications for me to make a move once." Fang Yuan's tone was still very arrogant, even his own side's Gu Immortals felt their teeth itch from hearing him.
  1639.  
  1640. The immortals' gazes turned towards this unlucky person.
  1641.  
  1642. This Gu Immortal immediately felt huge pressure.
  1643.  
  1644. His anger was boiling: "Who did I provoke to suddenly send me to battle? Moreover, why the hell are you commanding me? I am a Bai Zu tribe Gu Immortal, even Domination Immortal Chu Du can only discuss with me. How can you, a mere second supreme elder, command me?"
  1645.  
  1646. This Gu Immortal had decided to refuse.
  1647.  
  1648. But then he heard the discussions of other immortals.
  1649.  
  1650. For instance —
  1651.  
  1652. "Ye Lui Qun Xing is so strong, he has already defeated four people in a row. Now, letting this person fight, isn't it letting the enemy gain more battle achievements?"
  1653.  
  1654. "Hmph, this person is only a minor character, Ye Lui Qun Xing can easily beat two of this guy."
  1655.  
  1656. "He is a Hei tribe Gu Immortal, although his surname has changed to Bai Zu, can he really fight to the death with a Huang Jin bloodline Gu Immortal?"
  1657.  
  1658. Wow!
  1659.  
  1660. When these discussions resounded in this Gu Immortal's ears, he immediately realized that he had no choice but to go to battle.
  1661.  
  1662. He fiercely glared at Fang Yuan, unfortunately, Fang Yuan had already turned around, facing him with his back.
  1663.  
  1664. The Bai Zu tribe Gu Immortal was furious and aggrieved, but could only give in and fly to the stage.
  1665.  
  1666. There was nothing unusual about the battle.
  1667.  
  1668. This Gu Immortal was clearly weaker than Ye Lui Qun Xing. After exchanging ten or so moves, he lost.
  1669.  
  1670. "I hope Elder Liu Guan Yi can fight now and enlighten us." This Bai Zu Gu Immortal carried his injuries back, and his first words were to sarcastically speak to Fang Yuan.
  1671.  
  1672. Fang Yuan snorted: "You are too weak."
  1673.  
  1674. The Bai Zu Gu Immortal suppressed his anger: "I am indeed too weak, elder should show his divine prowess."
  1675.  
  1676. Fang Yuan's following words almost made him flare up —
  1677.  
  1678. "Taking so long to fight with a weakling like you. I have to admit I had overestimated that Ye Lui Qun Xing. Now, I have no interest to battle with him at all."
  1679.  
  1680. "You!" The Bai Zu Gu Immortal was stifled to the point of being speechless.
  1681.  
  1682. The immortals' gaze towards Fang Yuan were also vaguely changing.
  1683.  
  1684. Xue Wu Hen's expression was even more blatant, he sized up Fang Yuan with intense suspicion.
  1685.  
  1686. "So it was like this. The so-called Chu Sect's second supreme elder is just a poser." Ye Lui Qun Xing scoffed, his scoff felt piercing to Chu Du's side's Gu Immortals.
  1687.  
  1688. "Lord Domination Immortal, have you ever seen him make a move?" Ye Lui Xiao Jin also added.
  1689.  
  1690. Chu Du was silent, he had sensed Fang Yuan's strange behavior but decided to wait and watch.
  1691.  
  1692. "Elder Liu Guan Yi, if you truly have skills, go kill him!" That Gu Immortal of Bai Zu tribe sneered.
  1693.  
  1694. Fang Yuan lightly shook his head, boasting shamelessly: "How can you comprehend my power? That's why you will never have the hope of becoming an expert like me."
  1695.  
  1696. Ye Lui Qun Xing flicked his sleeves and walked away. He knew Fang Yuan could not be forced to fight.
  1697.  
  1698. In truth, after fighting five people in a row, he was indeed feeling exhaustion. His immortal essence expenditure was still good, the main thing was that his mind had been taxed a lot.
  1699.  
  1700. Seeing him retrieve the star fragments and leave, many on Chu Du's side let out a sigh of relief.
  1701.  
  1702. Ye Lui Xiao Jin was also extremely happy, as he raised his head high and ran to the entrance of Golden Dawn Hall to welcome Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  1703.  
  1704. How could they have known Fang Yuan to speak: "Look, he is indeed afraid of me, even if I didn't enter the battle, he has been feeling frightened, now he is unable to maintain his cool any longer, having no choice but to leave."
  1705.  
  1706. Ye Lui Qun Xing's steps slightly paused.
  1707.  
  1708. Xue Wu Hen's eyes widened, as he gazed at Fang Yuan and thought: "There is actually such a shameless person in this world? It has really opened my eyes. Brother Chu actually gave this person the status of second supreme elder, perhaps his judgment has dulled."
  1709.  
  1710. Ye Lui Xiao Jin's mouth almost twisted from anger.
  1711.  
  1712. On the contrary, Ye Lui Hui Hong's expression slightly changed, he squinted his eyes and started looking at Fang Yuan.
  1713.  
  1714. Ye Lui Qun Xing shook his head, continuing to leave without even glancing at Fang Yuan.
  1715.  
  1716. Fang Yuan laughed loudly: "Ye Lui Qun Xing, f*ck your eighteen generations of ancestors!"
  1717.  
  1718. The whole scene was silent, before they suddenly burst into an uproar.
  1719.  
  1720. Where is your disposition? Where is it?
  1721.  
  1722. The Gu Immortals screamed internally.
  1723.  
  1724. Who could have thought the elegant looking Fang Yuan would swear out loud in public. Even if they were fighting for their lives, Gu Immortals always maintained their disposition, after all, they all praised themselves as being righteous. Cursing like this in front of everyone was really letting go of one's reputation.
  1725.  
  1726. "His good looks are wasted." A Gu Immortal gazed at Fang Yuan, shaking their head constantly.
  1727.  
  1728. No doubt, the favorable impression Fang Yuan gave to the immortals at first glance was already ruined.
  1729.  
  1730. Fang Yuan laughed sinisterly, suddenly walking to the battle stage: "Ye Lui whatever, I am here, didn't you want to fight with me?"
  1731.  
  1732. Ye Lui Qun Xing stopped and gazed back.
  1733.  
  1734. The atmosphere of the whole scene changed.
  1735.  
  1736. Inside Golden Dawn Hall, Ye Lui Hui Hong was sitting upright, his expression solemn: "Qun Xing, careful, this person is doing something underhanded. Come back."
  1737.  
  1738. Fang Yuan's earlier and later attitude made Ye Lui Hui Hong realize that something was fishy.
  1739.  
  1740. Fang Yuan laughed heartily: "Gutless rat, Ye Lui tribe is made up of cowards, you are a bunch of bastards…"
  1741.  
  1742. All kinds of derogatory terms were thrown out one after the other.
  1743.  
  1744. The immortals were stupefied as they listened.
  1745.  
  1746. Chu Du wanted to cover his face, Fang Yuan did not have even a bit of elegance, he was destroying the image of Chu Sect.
  1747.  
  1748. A piece of rat poop spoils an entire pot of soup!
  1749.  
  1750. It was the first time Chu Du reconsidered on his decision to draw in Fang Yuan, was it correct?
  1751.  
  1752. But no matter what anyone said, Fang Yuan's provocation was effective.
  1753.  
  1754. The righteous path was easier to deal with than demonic path and lone cultivators in certain aspects. Especially when the question was about reputation. When it involved the tribe and bloodline, even if one did not care on the inside and was willing to ignore the other's cursing, in front of the public, with so many outsiders watching fixedly, it became another situation.
  1755.  
  1756. The super forces which were held together by bloodline and blood relations protected and attached great importance to the reputations of their ancestors.
  1757.  
  1758. This was their basic moral philosophy!
  1759.  
  1760. "Qun Xing, come back. I will personally face the skills of this Chu Sect's second supreme elder." Ye Lui Hui Hong stood up.
  1761.  
  1762. Fang Yuan unavoidably felt disappointed inwardly, but laughed on the surface: "Ye Lui Qun Xing, it's time to scram."
  1763.  
  1764. Ye Lui Qun Xing waved his hand at Ye Lui Hui Hong, smiling at Fang Yuan, revealing his white teeth: "Since it is so hard to find a chance for you to fight, how can I avoid the battle and escape? It is just that I have fought hard for five battles, and need to rest for a while."
  1765.  
  1766. Such a request was completely fair.
  1767.  
  1768. Fang Yuan smiled, this Ye Lui Qun Xing could still be so cool-headed. But he also did not expect these words to be able to make these Gu Immortals lose their rationality from anger.
  1769.  
  1770. In truth, his pestering had already reached his target.
  1771.  
  1772. So, Fang Yuan immediately allowed: "Rest as much as you want, I will give you two or three days. If two or three days are not enough, then take two or three years, hahaha!"
  1773.  
  1774. "Hehe, an hour is enough." Ye Lui Qun Xing smiled with clenched teeth.
  1775.  
  1776. Fang Yuan was really detestable, Ye Lui Qun Xing was naturally very angry.
  1777.  
  1778. But he was also very aware of his own situation.
  1779.  
  1780. His immortal essence expenditure was not much and he still had a lot of reserves left. Resting for an hour was mainly to restore his mental energy. He had his own methods for this, and after an hour, he could completely recover to his peak state!
  1781.  
  1782. At that time, he will let this Liu Guan Yi taste his power!
  1783.  
  1784. This hour of time appeared somewhat unbearable as the Gu Immortals waited.
  1785.  
  1786. Finally, Ye Lui Qun Xing recovered and walked to the stage, standing opposite Fang Yuan.
  1787.  
  1788. "Liu Guan Yi, I…" Ye Lui Qun Xing was just about to speak when Fang Yuan's body suddenly erupted with dazzling silver light.
  1789.  
  1790. At the next instance, a silver colored ancient sword dragon shot out of the light.
  1791.  
  1792. It had a sharp dragon horn, its mouth was opened wide, revealing it to be densely filled with sharp fangs.
  1793.  
  1794. "So despicable!"
  1795.  
  1796. "He actually sneak attacked!!"
  1797.  
  1798. The righteous path's immortals scolded at once.
  1799.  
  1800. The ancient sword dragon had already neared Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  1801.  
  1802. Chapter 1204: How Could It Be Seen Through?!
  1803.  
  1804. Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
  1805.  
  1806.  
  1807.  
  1808. Ye Lui Qun Xing had a great fright as he quickly retreated!
  1809.  
  1810. "This shameless guy!" He cursed inwardly, not having expected Fang Yuan's actions. Every time he felt that Fang Yuan was shameless, Fang Yuan's following actions would completely redefine shamelessness.
  1811.  
  1812. Fortunately, Ye Lui Qun Xing had been all the while and reacted in time.
  1813.  
  1814. One chased and the other escaped.
  1815.  
  1816. The distance between Fang Yuan and Ye Lui Qun Xing was rapidly shrinking.
  1817.  
  1818. The immortals held their breaths.
  1819.  
  1820. Ye Lui Xiao Jin also subconsciously stood up, looking at Ye Lui Qun Xing with worry.
  1821.  
  1822. Ye Lui Hui Hong, however, stood stably in his seat, he had a better understanding of Ye Lui Qun Xing's trump cards and did not think Ye Lui Qun Xing was in danger right now.
  1823.  
  1824. "So he cultivates ancient sword dragon transformation!" Chu Du thought.
  1825.  
  1826. "Ancient sword dragon, based on potential, it is still inferior to my heaven swallowing hound…" Immortal Wang had clenched teeth.
  1827.  
  1828. "He finally took action!" This was what many Gu Immortals were thinking.
  1829.  
  1830. "Go."
  1831.  
  1832. The retreating Ye Lui Qun Xing suddenly called out, pushing lightly towards the charging ancient sword dragon.
  1833.  
  1834. Immediately, his whole hand emitted brilliant blue light. A star fragment shot out from the blue light and collided against Fang Yuan with a speed like that of a meteor.
  1835.  
  1836. Fang Yuan roared towards the sky before suddenly moving, the whole ancient sword dragon made a beautiful arc in the air, as it nimbly moved past the incoming star fragment, almost brushing past it.
  1837.  
  1838. When the Gu Immortals saw this scene, despite having an extremely bad impression of Fang Yuan, many of them could not help but give praise internally, as they sensed Fang Yuan had already reached a proficient level at ancient sword dragon transformation.
  1839.  
  1840. Such control made Fang Yuan seem like he was an ancient sword dragon from the start of his life.
  1841.  
  1842. "Not good." Immortal Wang suddenly spoke.
  1843.  
  1844. Almost at the same time, Ye Lui Qun Xing saw Fang Yuan moving past this star fragment, and the corner of lips slightly raised up.
  1845.  
  1846. Ping.
  1847.  
  1848. A sharp sound echoed. Fang Yuan's dragon tail swung, directly smashing the star fragment he had brushed past.
  1849.  
  1850. The ancient sword dragon Fang Yuan had turned into had a more terrifying tail compared to its claws, its tail could directly smash dark inkstone, let alone this star fragment.
  1851.  
  1852. Such a response made even Chu Du pleasantly surprised.
  1853.  
  1854. He was happy inwardly: "The information path Gu worm I gave to Liu Guan Yi has records of all the battle scenes of Ye Lui Qun Xing. So Liu Guan Yi knows he absolutely cannot let Ye Lui Qun Xing have many star fragments under his control. The greater the number of star fragments he controls, the stronger he would become. Finally, it would form into an enormous advantage that managed to defeat five people in a row."
  1855.  
  1856. Ye Lui Qun Xing was slightly disappointed when he saw Fang Yuan responding in the wisest way, and quickly increased his retreating speed.
  1857.  
  1858. At the same time, he repeatedly clapped, layers of blue light covered his two hands, from which star fragments shot out one after the other.
  1859.  
  1860. At first, they were only thumb sized, but as they moved in the air, they returned to their original size and flew more rapidly, bringing in strong gusts of wind.
  1861.  
  1862. Boom boom boom.
  1863.  
  1864. Fang Yuan used his horn, claws as well as his body and tail to destroy all these star fragments.
  1865.  
  1866. He did not give Ye Lui Qun Xing any opportunity to accumulate power.
  1867.  
  1868. For a moment, star debris flew all around, turning into blue fragments like fog or sand, which scattered with the strong gale, creating a beautiful sight that was difficult to describe.
  1869.  
  1870. The silver scales of the ancient sword dragon also added to this beauty, as it moved along the star debris.
  1871.  
  1872. Chu Du slightly frowned.
  1873.  
  1874. Originally, Fang Yuan made a wise choice of smashing the star fragments, targeting the weakness of Ye Lui Qun Xing's immortal killer move. But also because of this, it led to a decrease in Fang Yuan's speed.
  1875.  
  1876. The distance between the two did not shrink much.
  1877.  
  1878. The advantage of the sneak attack before had already disappeared now.
  1879.  
  1880. Ye Lui Qun Xing had already stabilized himself.
  1881.  
  1882. He snorted, as he struck out with his hands rapidly, star fragments shot out everywhere, but not directly towards Fang Yuan.
  1883.  
  1884. Fang Yuan fell into a difficult situation with two choices in front of him.
  1885.  
  1886. If he charged directly towards Ye Lui Qun Xing, the latter would retreat and he would not be able to forcibly close the distance, at the same time, the surrounding star fragments would keep on increasing, accumulating a great advantage for the latter.
  1887.  
  1888. If Fang Yuan dealt with these star fragments, he would have to keep on flying around, and would fall deeper into Ye Lui Qun Xing's scheme, giving the latter the initiative to more easily arrange the battle situation.
  1889.  
  1890. The ancient sword dragon slowed down its offense in its state of hesitation.
  1891.  
  1892. Sensing this, Chu Du's frown became deeper, while Ye Lui Hui Hong, inside Golden Dawn Hall, was starting to smile, taking a small sip of fine wine.
  1893.  
  1894. Despite Fang Yuan's hesitation not lasting for long, he had missed a good opportunity and there were now dozens of star fragments on the battlefield.
  1895.  
  1896. Ye Lui Qun Xing's advantage had started to accumulate.
  1897.  
  1898. Fang Yuan was surrounded by the star fragments, despite him not caring about his body, and engaging in even more crazed offenses, he was not able to break through the layers of encirclement.
  1899.  
  1900. Ye Lui Qun Xing relaxed, the star fragments continued to increase, not only surrounding Fang Yuan, some had also appeared beside him, orbiting around continuously.
  1901.  
  1902. "Liu Guan Yi, you acted arrogant and boasted shamelessly, it was to make me take back the star fragments so I would have to lay them out again."
  1903.  
  1904. "Your scheme was quite deep, almost letting others think you are wildly arrogant. Unfortunately, I am not the same person I was years ago."
  1905.  
  1906. "A few years ago, I already improved upon this weakness of my immortal killer move. It is indeed somewhat weak at the start, but your methods are not enough to restrain me."
  1907.  
  1908. "Now, what are you going to use to resolve this situation?"
  1909.  
  1910. A dragon's roar resounded, Fang Yuan moved his body, brandished his claws, and destroyed countless star fragments, star debris flew all around.
  1911.  
  1912. The dragon's might was powerful, its speed was especially astonishing.
  1913.  
  1914. Unfortunately, the spectating immortals sensed weakness within this strong momentum.
  1915.  
  1916. Fang Yuan was attacking wildly, but Ye Lui Qun Xing was far away, watching with arms folded in front of him, maneuvering the star fragments leisurely.
  1917.  
  1918. As time passed, there were more and more star fragments orbiting around Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  1919.  
  1920. "Liu Guan Yi has lost!" Immortal Wang spoke decisively at this sight.
  1921.  
  1922. Xue Wu Hen did not speak, inwardly thinking: "Based on strength, Elder Liu Guan Yi is indeed powerful, at the same level as Elder Hao Zhen and Elder Chou Lao Wu. But there is still a gap when compared to Ye Lui Qun Xing."
  1923.  
  1924. Chu Du was still frowning, the strength Fang Yuan displayed was not consistent with his expectations. But he still felt Fang Yuan had a trump card and was still confident in Fang Yuan, and until the end of the battle, he would choose to keep his expectations.
  1925.  
  1926. Ye Lui Xiao Jin laughed heartily at the entrance of Golden Dawn Hall, and shouted: "That Liu Guan or whatever, why are you not yelling now? Come on, continue boasting. Didn't you say my tribe's Lord Qun Xing could not compare to you? Didn't you say fighting him would lower your status? Why are you not speaking now? Only knowing how to yell, what do you want to vent out?"
  1927.  
  1928. The ancient sword dragon roared furiously, destroying the star fragments.
  1929.  
  1930. Sensing Fang Yuan's furious mood, Ye Lui Xiao Jin laughed again.
  1931.  
  1932. "Chu Sect's second supreme elder is only at this level."
  1933.  
  1934. "In all fairness, he does have some strength. Have you counted how many star fragments he has already destroyed?"
  1935.  
  1936. "But that is useless, Ye Lui Qun Xing's dominance is already increasing."
  1937.  
  1938. "Liu Guan Yi's hesitation earlier decided the battle. This was his only fault but it was perfectly used by Ye Lui Qun Xing."
  1939.  
  1940. "Thinking of it, it is also not strange. What is Chu Sect? How can they be on par with our great Huang Jin forces? Their second supreme elder has such battle strength, Chu Du cannot be considered to have made a bad judgment."
  1941.  
  1942. The righteous path Gu Immortals drank and rejoiced inside Golden Dawn Hall, the atmosphere was relaxed.
  1943.  
  1944. Ye Lui Hui Hong stroked his beard, the smile on his face had become brighter, but at the same time, he did not forget to speak and remind Ye Lui Qun Xing: "Be careful of his dragon breath. The ancient sword dragon's strongest weapon is its breath. Until now, he still hasn't breathed out once."
  1945.  
  1946. Ye Lui Qun Xing slightly nodded.
  1947.  
  1948. Even without Ye Lui Hui Hong's reminder, he had already been concerned about this.
  1949.  
  1950. Experts!
  1951.  
  1952. They were not decided with just strength, but also their mental state during battle.
  1953.  
  1954. No doubt, Ye Lui Qun Xing who had suffered numerous defeats, had an extremely good mentality. He was an expert that had gone through painstaking training, setbacks and defeats.
  1955.  
  1956. His foundation was extremely solid and stable.
  1957.  
  1958. However, Ye Lui Qun Xing did not retreat.
  1959.  
  1960. Right now, he was quite far away from Fang Yuan, almost at the opposite end of the battlefield.
  1961.  
  1962. Ye Lui Qun Xing looked at the star fragments orbiting around him, and thought: "I have a hundred star fragments protecting me. Even if Chu Du personally comes, I can resist for a while, let alone this Liu Guan Yi. Dong Fang Chang Fan, you might have passed away, but let me sustain the reputation of myriad star fireflies for you. After all, my immortal killer move had received your guidance."
  1963.  
  1964. Right as most of the Gu Immortals felt the battle was decided, there was a sudden change!
  1965.  
  1966. Sword escape Immortal Gu!
  1967.  
  1968. Suddenly, Fang Yuan activated rank seven sword escape Immortal Gu.
  1969.  
  1970. Right now, he had transformed into an ancient sword dragon, his transformation path dao marks had turned into sword path dao marks, adding on to his cultivation of sword eyebrows Immortal Gu, his sword path dao marks had already reached a number of ten thousand.
  1971.  
  1972. A thousand dao marks could double an Immortal Gu's power.
  1973.  
  1974. Ten thousand dao marks could add ten times the power!
  1975.  
  1976. Sword escape Immortal Gu was already an exceptional movement Gu worm among rank seven Immortal Gu. Now, ten times its power was added!
  1977.  
  1978. At the same time, the ancient sword dragon's own speed also had to be calculated.
  1979.  
  1980. Sword dragons did not have strong long range attacks, but their burst of speed from a stationary state was astonishing.
  1981.  
  1982. Ancient sword dragon, sword escape Immortal Gu and ten thousand sword path dao marks, when stacked together, allowed Fang Yuan to instantly disappear from his spot.
  1983.  
  1984. Before any immortals had reacted, he had already flown through the whole battlefield and appeared in front of Ye Lui Qun Xing!
  1985.  
  1986. At this moment, Ye Lui Qun Xing's expression was still paused on a strategic and victorious smile. But his pupils had shrunk to needle-sized, as he looked, with extreme fright, at a gigantic sword dragon head that filled his whole vision!
  1987.  
  1988. He only had one thought in his mind —
  1989.  
  1990. "Impossible! My star fragments' flying trajectories are extremely profound and takes reference from myriad star fireflies, how could he see through it?!"
  1991.  
  1992. This was Ye Lui Qun Xing's final thought in life.
  1993.

  1997.  
  1998.  
  1999.  
  2000. Everything happened too quickly!
  2001.  
  2002. At the previous moment, the ancient sword dragon was still tightly surrounded by star fragments. It was charging here and there, roaring repeatedly but unable to do anything.
  2003.  
  2004. At the previous moment, Ye Lui Qun Xing was still at the other end of the battlefield, star fragments were orbiting around him like he was the lord of stars.
  2005.  
  2006. At the previous moment, almost all the Gu Immortals felt Ye Lui Qun Xing already had victory in his grasp and the battle was decided. Because they were very much familiar with the scene that was unfolding in front of them.
  2007.  
  2008. Before this, the five Gu Immortals Ye Lui Qun Xing had defeated in succession were all in this situation.
  2009.  
  2010. Although there was no study of 'subconscious bias' in this world, these Gu Immortals' thought processes were almost the same at this moment.
  2011.  
  2012. Then, at the next moment!
  2013.  
  2014. Fang Yuan suddenly used sword escape Immortal Gu, instantaneously bursting out with an extremely terrifying speed.
  2015.  
  2016. At the next moment, the ancient sword dragon had destroyed all the obstructing star fragments in its path, and arrived in front of Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  2017.  
  2018. He opened his mouth and breathed out.
  2019.  
  2020. Dragon breath!
  2021.  
  2022. While Ye Lui Qun Xing was still confident in his defensive methods, his whole head had instantly been sliced off.
  2023.  
  2024. The human body was weak and had many fatal areas. One the head was cut off, they would die. Even if they turned into an immortal zombie, their head was still a weak point.
  2025.  
  2026. Ye Lui Qun Xing immediately died!
  2027.  
  2028. Fang Yuan smoothly grabbed his body.
  2029.  
  2030. A portion of Ye Lui Qun Xing's soul was also cut and before it could escape from his physical body, Fang Yuan had already stored it inside his immortal aperture.
  2031.  
  2032. The whole process went extremely quickly.
  2033.  
  2034. Fang Yuan had already been plotting for a long time!
  2035.  
  2036. Activating Sword Escape, charging in, using his dragon breath and retrieving the corpse. The whole process involved four actions.
  2037.  
  2038. But even so, after Fang Yuan finished these four actions, his whole dragon body had already charged out of the battlefield, reaching several li away.
  2039.  
  2040. One could feel how terrifying his speed was!
  2041.  
  2042. If it were a human body, it might have already burst from the enormous pressure brought by such intense speed.
  2043.  
  2044. Fortunately, Fang Yuan had transformed into a dragon.
  2045.  
  2046. But even with this, Fang Yuan felt quite a bit of pressure when he had charged.
  2047.  
  2048. His vision had already turned blurry.
  2049.  
  2050. If he had human eyes, they would not have been able to keep up with such speed. But Fang Yuan's eyes were dragon eyes now, even so, it was difficult for his eyes to cope with this speed.
  2051.  
  2052. At this speed, even Fang Yuan felt like he could not sustain it.
  2053.  
  2054. "If I am to move with this speed, I must use all my energy and concentration in controlling my body."
  2055.  
  2056. "Otherwise, if there is any deviation in my direction, who knows whether I crash into peaks or the ground at the next moment."
  2057.  
  2058. "This speed is too fast, one moment I am still in the air, and the next moment I am already several li away!"
  2059.  
  2060. Fang Yuan thought in his mind.
  2061.  
  2062. He thought of when he had first gotten the sovereign immortal aperture and practiced colliding into Southern Border's mounds, besides knocking himself dizzy, the whole mound and even the veins underneath had been destroyed.
  2063.  
  2064. This speed was quite suitable for a momentary burst, but in truth, it was not highly practical during battle.
  2065.  
  2066. Once Fang Yuan used his fastest speed, he would have to use all his energy and concentration in controlling the ancient sword dragon body. As such, he could only perform some simple actions, or maybe rely on the transformed sword dragon body.
  2067.  
  2068. If so, it would be quite dangerous.
  2069.  
  2070. Because although Fang Yuan would have a sturdy and strong body in ancient sword dragon form, the sovereign immortal body's characteristic of non-conflicting dao marks would still exist.
  2071.  
  2072. "Ancient sword dragon transformation is a classic case of strong offense and weak defense, moreover, there is an extreme imbalance between its offense and defense."
  2073.  
  2074. "Fortunately, I actually succeeded this time and killed Ye Lui Qun Xing. My luck is pretty good!"
  2075.  
  2076. "First, I need to find a place to annex this immortal aperture before I think of anything else."
  2077.  
  2078. Fang Yuan did not return, directly flying away from Blood Plain.
  2079.  
  2080. The Gu Immortals of both sides watched his figure dazedly, until he disappeared into the horizon.
  2081.  
  2082. The immortals looked at the messy battlefield with countless star debris as well as many star fragments still flying in the air, only then did they come to a sudden realization!
  2083.  
  2084. "Liu Guan Yi, he killed Ye Lui Qun Xing!"
  2085.  
  2086. "Unbelievable! This is like a dream."
  2087.  
  2088. "Too fast, we simply cannot react to such speed."
  2089.  
  2090. Regardless of the righteous path or Chu Du's side, they were both clamoring in discussions. Gu Immortals did not transmit their voices secretly, but directly spoke out, as if they could only release the doubts in their hearts by speaking up.
  2091.  
  2092. Ye Lui Xiao Jin was standing, dumbfounded, at the entrance of Golden Dawn Hall, like a statue.
  2093.  
  2094. Just moments before Ye Lui Qun Xing was killed by Fang Yuan, he had still been shouting and mocking Fang Yuan.
  2095.  
  2096. Now, these words he spoke out, as well as his actions, seemed to be like slaps that struck his face repeatedly and resoundingly.
  2097.  
  2098. He was shaken and shocked, unable to believe this fact!
  2099.  
  2100. Ye Lui Hui Hong also stood from his seat, his hand was still holding a wine cup and his beard was wet from the spilling of the wine.
  2101.  
  2102. Just the moment before Fang Yuan killed Ye Lui Qun Xing, he had been sitting and moving the wine cup to his lips.
  2103.  
  2104. But after the matter occurred, Ye Lui Hui Hong subconsciously stood up from shock, not caring about the wine cup in his hand, letting the wine spill on his beard, neck and clothes.
  2105.  
  2106. Ye Lui Qun Xing was dead!
  2107.  
  2108. An expert of Ye Lui tribe, a famous Northern Plains Gu Immortal, Ye Lui Qun Xing was dead.
  2109.  
  2110. His death was so sudden that there had been no signs at all.
  2111.  
  2112. If Ye Lui Xiao Jin was said to be a future hope of Ye Lui tribe, then Ye Lui Qun Xing was a current pillar of the tribe.
  2113.  
  2114. But he had died.
  2115.  
  2116. His life had ended here!
  2117.  
  2118. This was an extremely heavy impact to Ye Lui Hui Hong and Ye Lui Xiao Jin!
  2119.  
  2120. And to the whole of Ye Lui tribe as well, this was an extremely big loss!
  2121.  
  2122. "Terrifying, too powerful."
  2123.  
  2124. "He is indeed the second supreme elder of Chu Sect, such astonishing battle strength."
  2125.  
  2126. "Chu Du really has an eye for talent, I had been looking down on Liu Guan Yi just before, my insight is still too superficial."
  2127.  
  2128. The Gu Immortals on Chu Du's side were all showing happy expressions.
  2129.  
  2130. Despite them not liking Fang Yuan, the battle achievement was displayed in front of them, Fang Yuan had resolved their difficult problem, Ye Lui Qun Xing, permanently.
  2131.  
  2132. From now, there would be no such person in Northern Plains' Gu Immortal world!
  2133.  
  2134. "Amazing. Elder Liu put on a pretentious appearance to incite the other side, then during the battle, he lured the enemy into having a false sense of security step by step. He clearly has such strength, but he restrained himself until the last moment, when he dealt the fatal blow!" Xue Wu Hen heaved a long sigh.
  2135.  
  2136. He was thoroughly convinced.
  2137.  
  2138. Such a turn of events made him fully admire Fang Yuan.
  2139.  
  2140. "How laughable I was, I had still been thinking Elder Liu was nothing impressive. Sigh, if I was Elder Liu's enemy, I might have died without knowing how I died. I am still too inexperienced!"
  2141.  
  2142. "Everyone needs to pay attention, this Liu Guan Yi is extremely crafty, be vigilant when you encounter him in the future." Inside Golden Dawn Hall, Nu Er Gu spoke with a grave expression, breaking the long silence.
  2143.  
  2144. Right now, as they thought back to Fang Yuan's performance, they all felt Fang Yuan was extremely insidious and sly.
  2145.  
  2146. The arrogance before the battle and the weak display during the battle were just disguises so he could strike with the most fatal attack at the end.
  2147.  
  2148. He did not make a move carelessly, but when he moved, it shook everyone!
  2149.  
  2150. "Ping Zhi, if you run into this Liu Guan Yi alone in the future, it would be best for you to avoid him and retreat." Nian Er Yi Fang looked at his tribe's future hope, and spoke with worry.
  2151.  
  2152. Nian Er Ping Zhi nodded: "Yes! I understand. I am only a Sword Child right now, when I become a Swordmaster in the future and cultivate to rank seven, I will definitely have a proper fight with this Elder Liu Guan Yi."
  2153.  
  2154. The righteous path Gu Immortals spoke to each other.
  2155.  
  2156. "Ye Lui Qun Xing died a miserable death. The whole battle was in Liu Guan Yi's grasp, what we and Ye Lui Qun Xing felt and saw, was all just his facade."
  2157.  
  2158. "Sigh, who could have thought he had such strength."
  2159.  
  2160. "Elder Ye Lui Hui Hong, don't blame yourself. We will definitely take revenge for Ye Lui tribe in the coming battles!"
  2161.  
  2162. Ye Lui Hui Hong had already snapped back to awareness.
  2163.  
  2164. There was one thing he did not understand in his mind — how was Liu Guan Yi able to easily penetrate through the heavy lines of defense from Ye Lui Qun Xing's numerous star fragments!
  2165.  
  2166. He had sparred many times with Ye Lui Qun Xing and was very clear on how much power the defensive lines held.
  2167.  
  2168. This doubt was shrouding over Ye Lui Hui Hong's heart, like a heavy dark fog.
  2169.  
  2170. He took two large breaths, his face was still pale, but he forcibly calmed down because right now, he represented the whole of Ye Lui tribe.
  2171.  
  2172. If his performance was not good, the whole of Ye Lui tribe would be disgraced!
  2173.  
  2174. "Lady Gong Wan Ting." Ye Lui Hui Hong took a deep bow to the main seat, "My tribe's Ye Lui Qun Xing is of pure Huang Jin bloodline, sacrificing his life here is also a glory for him, he is a hero of our Huang Jin bloodline. But now, his corpse is still in his killer's hands, his soul also might still be alive. I sincerely request to come forward and recover Qun Xing's corpse and his soul."
  2175.  
  2176. "Of course." Gong Wan Ting softly agreed, her attitude was straightforward and clear.
  2177.  
  2178. According the rules set by both sides previously, they could exchange corpses.
  2179.  
  2180. But right now, Fang Yuan had already raced off to who knows where with Ye Lui Qun Xing's corpse. Even if the righteous path Gu Immortals wanted to chase him, they were too late.
  2181.  
  2182. Thus, Gong Wan Ting directly asked Chu Du.
  2183.  
  2184. Chu Du was also surprised at Fang Yuan's direct departure, and had already sent a letter to ask. Fang Yuan had such strength, Chu Du still needed to rely on him.
  2185.  
  2186. Just as Gong Wan Ting had asked, Chu Du had coincidentally received Fang Yuan's reply in his immortal aperture —
  2187.  
  2188. "I have great use for Ye Lui Qun Xing's corpse! Brother Chu, if you have no choice, just expel me from Chu Sect."
  2189.  
  2190. These were two simple sentences, but they expressed Fang Yuan's firm and unrelenting attitude.
  2191.  
  2192. Chu Du frowned, but spoke calmly to Gong Wan Ting: "Fairy, you can rest at ease, Ye Lui Qun Xing's corpse will definitely be guarded properly. I have already notified my sect's second supreme elder. But to exchange for the corpse, your side will have to pay a price."
  2193.  
  2194. "Everything can be discussed." Ye Lui Hui Hong immediately agreed, his stance was clear.

  2199.  
  2200.  
  2201.  
  2202. Fang Yuan had already thrown the matter of the blood battle martial competition to the back of his mind.
  2203.  
  2204. He absolutely would not let go of Ye Lui Qun Xing's immortal aperture. Even if he could not annex it right now, he could do so in the future.
  2205.  
  2206. As for the righteous path's demand for Ye Lui Qun Xing's corpse and soul, Fang Yuan thought about it and was willing to satisfy a portion of the request, regarding the body.
  2207.  
  2208. His focus was the immortal aperture, Ye Lui Qun Xing's soul also could not be transacted, he could soul search and obtain many of Ye Lui tribe's secrets. After the soul search, he could still hand over this Gu Immortal soul to Lang Ya Sect and earn sect contribution points.
  2209.  
  2210. "The urgent matter right now is to test whether I can annex this immortal aperture or not."
  2211.  
  2212. Fang Yuan flew rapidly.
  2213.  
  2214. He took twists and turns, guarding against heaven's will.
  2215.  
  2216. A few hours later, he arrived at Tai Qiu.
  2217.  
  2218. Tai Qiu was not too far away from Blood Plain.
  2219.  
  2220. If looked from Northern Plains' map, Blood Plain would be at the left side and Tai Qiu would be at the right side, the territory in between was Hei tribe's Iron Eagle blessed land.
  2221.  
  2222. Blood Plain, Iron Eagle blessed land and Tai Qiu, if these three were connected in two lines, they would form an irregular V shape.
  2223.  
  2224. Entering Tai Qiu, Fang Yuan changed his appearance and sneaked inside.
  2225.  
  2226. He was familiar with the route, and soon, he arrived at the super Gu formation he had arranged previously.
  2227.  
  2228. Through the super Gu formation, he arrived at Lang Ya blessed land.
  2229.  
  2230. "Fang Yuan has returned!" Sixth Hair immediately paid close attention to Fang Yuan's every move.
  2231.  
  2232. "Ever since he left after exchanging for dragon breath Immortal Gu, this is the first time he has returned. What did he use dragon breath Immortal Gu for?" Sixth Hair was constantly guessing.
  2233.  
  2234. He did not know that hours ago, Fang Yuan had used ancient sword dragon transformation to kill a rank seven Gu Immortal expert, Ye Lui Qun Xing.
  2235.  
  2236. This person was at the same level as Pi Shui Han and Unfettered Scholar.
  2237.  
  2238. Fang Yuan's strength was now already able to compare favorably to these characters.
  2239.  
  2240. Since the failure at Yi Tian Mountain, Shadow Sect was in an extremely disordered state, Sixth Hair might very well be the only survivor of Shadow Sect left in Northern Plains, his information gathering was much slower than before.
  2241.  
  2242. But the news of Fang Yuan killing Ye Lui Qun Xing could not be covered up. This news was too shocking and would soon spread throughout the whole of Northern Plains' Gu Immortal world, and even Central Continent's Gu Immortals would hear of it.
  2243.  
  2244. After all, Central Continent's ten great ancient sects were also paying attention to this blood battle martial competition.
  2245.  
  2246. "Eh? Fang Yuan is leaving again?" Sixth Hair was astonished.
  2247.  
  2248. The super Gu formation flashed again as Fang Yuan left.
  2249.  
  2250. Sixth Hair did not know what Fang Yuan was doing, coming and going in such a hurry. But he intuitively felt something amiss, and was somewhat panicked. He felt Fang Yuan was going to obtain enormous benefits at this time.
  2251.  
  2252. Fang Yuan's growth rate was increasing rapidly, and to Shadow Sect, this was very bad news.
  2253.  
  2254. Fang Yuan used Lang Ya blessed land to teleport.
  2255.  
  2256. He wanted to annex the immortal aperture, for that, he had to first place the aperture.
  2257.  
  2258. He could not place the immortal aperture in Blood Plain, the commotion would be huge and it would attract countless gazes, and that was not good for Fang Yuan.
  2259.  
  2260. "It was not easy to obtain this rank seven star path immortal aperture, I naturally want the process of annexing it to go without any mishaps!"
  2261.  
  2262. When Fang Yuan appeared in the other Gu formation outside, he was already very far away from Blood Plain.
  2263.  
  2264. He had already planned his actions, and had already chosen a location.
  2265.  
  2266. Exiting the teleportation Gu formation, he hid his tracks and flew rapidly, arriving above ordinary grassland not long later.
  2267.  
  2268. After inspecting and not finding anything wrong, Fang Yuan took out Ye Lui Qun Xing's corpse.
  2269.  
  2270. The pitiful fellow's head had already been sliced off entirely.
  2271.  
  2272. Fang Yuan used temporary measures to handle the headless corpse, ensuring the immortal aperture would still exist.
  2273.  
  2274. This method had its own history.
  2275.  
  2276. When Fang Yuan had seen Blazing Heaven Demoness' method of retrieving apertures, he had also inquired her for some research results of Old Immortal Kong Jue. Adding on to Fang Yuan's methods from his first life, he had created his own method in preserving an immortal aperture.
  2277.  
  2278. Ye Lui Qun Xing's soul was already taken out by Fang Yuan and sealed properly.
  2279.  
  2280. The situation was a little troublesome.
  2281.  
  2282. Ye Lui Qun Xing's soul had similarly suffered from his dragon breath and its injuries were not light. Fortunately, Fang Yuan had guts Gu.
  2283.  
  2284. Although this Gu worm was only a mortal Gu, it was created from a secluded domain of heaven and earth, and was among the best methods of soul strengthening in this world. Fang Yuan was the owner of Dang Hun mountain, thus he had large reserves of them with him.
  2285.  
  2286. After using many guts Gu, despite Ye Lui Qun Xing's soul being on the verge of dissipation, it was finally rescued.
  2287.  
  2288. Fang Yuan released the seal he laid out and threw the corpse onto the grassland.
  2289.  
  2290. The mighty Ye Lui Qun Xing, who had enjoyed boundless glory while alive, was treated so casually after dying. If Ye Lui tribe's Gu Immortals were to see this, they would definitely jump out in anger to stake their lives against Fang Yuan.
  2291.  
  2292. Several breaths later, there was turbulence in heaven and earth qi.
  2293.  
  2294. The immortal aperture began to land on the ground, causing a huge commotion.
  2295.  
  2296. Fortunately, Fang Yuan had Dog Shit Luck and was not as unlucky as before, when it seemed like he might even die from choking when drinking water.
  2297.  
  2298. Without any surprises, the immortal aperture's entrance opened in front of Fang Yuan.
  2299.  
  2300. Despite having the upper extreme heavenly eagle, he still took the chance to enter Qun Xing blessed land through the entrance.
  2301.  
  2302. Ye Lui Qun Xing's blessed land was rather peculiar.
  2303.  
  2304. The sky was a scene of darkness, but the ground below emitted dim blue light.
  2305.  
  2306. The moment Fang Yuan glanced, his mind shook.
  2307.  
  2308. He discovered, the ground of this blessed land was actually covered with countless star fragments. The large ones among these star fragments were as big as shells, while the small ones were the size of pebbles, and they gave a rustling sound when stepped on.
  2309.  
  2310. The blessed land seemed endless in size, its surface was vast and its terrain was level.
  2311.  
  2312. Fang Yuan wanted to fly, but felt a powerful magnetic force that firmly kept him to the ground.
  2313.  
  2314. The ground suddenly protruded up, then a basin sized star core floated in front of Fang Yuan.
  2315.  
  2316. This azure star core was like a dark blue crystal ball, it was this blessed land's land spirit.
  2317.  
  2318. It was bright and colorful, and was slowly revolving on its own axis, emitting all kinds of light rays, making Fang Yuan mentally associate them to the rays of light in those perfect diamonds back on Earth.
  2319.  
  2320. Amidst soundless communication, Fang Yuan learned about this blessed land's ownership condition.
  2321.  
  2322. To ordinary Gu Immortals, this condition was quite difficult.
  2323.  
  2324. Because the land spirit's request was to show the true, complete version of the immortal killer move, myriad star fireflies, to it.
  2325.  
  2326. While alive, Ye Lui Qun Xing had all along been pondering on myriad star fireflies. The immortal killer move he created also imitated myriad star fireflies heavily.
  2327.  
  2328. His obsession was about this.
  2329.  
  2330. After death, his obsession combined with the heavenly power in the immortal aperture, to form this land spirit.
  2331.  
  2332. "My luck is overflowing, it cannot be stopped, hahaha." Fang Yuan immediately took out the whole contents of myriad star fireflies and gave it to the land spirit.
  2333.  
  2334. He was the killer of Dong Fang Chang Fan and had searched Dong Fang Chang Fan's soul countless times, sometimes also torturing him. In the end, he had handed Dong Fang Chang Fan's soul to Lang Ya land spirit like it was rubbish, and exchanged it for sect contribution points.
  2335.  
  2336. After a while, Fang Yuan became this blessed land's master.
  2337.  
  2338. "Now is the most crucial moment. Let's see if I can annex this blessed land."
  2339.  
  2340. Fang Yuan rested for a while before beginning.
  2341.  
  2342. Immortal apertures could annex one another, and summarizing the experiences of predecessors, there were three main conditions for this.
  2343.  
  2344. First, annexing an immortal aperture required specific attainment level.
  2345.  
  2346. Second, a smaller immortal aperture could not engulf a bigger one.
  2347.  
  2348. Third, dead apertures could not be annexed.
  2349.  
  2350. Fang Yuan already satisfied two conditions for annexing Qun Xing blessed land. But there was still one condition left which was somewhat ambiguous.
  2351.  
  2352. A smaller immortal aperture could not engulf a bigger one. The question here was, what was small and what was big?
  2353.  
  2354. If it was cultivation level, rank six immortal apertures were small and rank seven immortal aperture were big, then Fang Yuan would not be able to annex this Qun Xing blessed land.
  2355.  
  2356. If it was based on the immortal aperture's foundation and so on, Fang Yuan's sovereign immortal aperture absolutely surpassed Qun Xing blessed land, and could devour it.
  2357.  
  2358. Fang Yuan had already wanted to test this and verify it.
  2359.  
  2360. The regretful thing was that there were very few rank seven immortal apertures among the immortal apertures he knew of, and he was also unable to fulfill the attainment level conditions.
  2361.  
  2362. Until now, when Fang Yuan seized Qun Xing blessed land.
  2363.  
  2364. Fang Yuan had both skills and boldness, he began to test; with the land spirit's help, he began to annex Qun Xing blessed land.
  2365.  
  2366. The process was smooth beyond expectations.
  2367.  
  2368. He simply did not encounter any obstacles!
  2369.  
  2370. The test succeeded!
  2371.  
  2372. After annexing Qun Xing blessed land, not only did the sovereign immortal aperture have an enormous star fragment plain, more importantly, many of Fang Yuan's calamities and tribulations were passed, letting him officially ascend to rank seven from rank six.
  2373.  
  2374. Rank seven Gu Immortal!
  2375.  
  2376. "From this moment on, I am a rank seven Gu Immortal. I have finally become a rank seven…"
  2377.  
  2378. Fang Yuan was filled with emotions.
  2379.  
  2380. In the five hundred years of his first life, he had only been at rank six second heavenly tribulation level. Naturally, the current Fang Yuan knew that heaven's will had intentionally suppressed his cultivation level.
  2381.  
  2382. Heaven's will required an otherworldly demon as a tool to deal with Shadow Sect. Fang Yuan was chosen by heaven's will, naturally it carved and sculpted Fang Yuan to make him a qualified chess piece. At the least, his cultivation level could not be too high, if he was too strong, heaven's will would find it more difficult to control Fang Yuan. He also could not be too weak, otherwise, even with rebirth, he could not be of any use. Rank six was just right.
  2383.  
  2384. This was a long term plan of heaven's will!
  2385.  
  2386. But at present, because of all kinds of fortuitous encounters as well as his own efforts and perseverance, Fang Yuan had finally broken through heaven's will's restrictions and charged to rank seven.
  2387.  
  2388. Its significance was huge!
  2389.  
  2390. Rank six Gu Immortals were considered bottom tier, they were numerous.
  2391.  
  2392. Rank seven Gu Immortals were mid-tier, they were the elites among Gu Immortals and had high statuses.
  2393.  
  2394. Rank eights were rare, their every move could create a storm in a region.
  2395.  
  2396. Reaching this level, Fang Yuan had already become an elite among Gu Immortals, an expert. If a rank six saw him, they would have to detour around him. Even among rank seven Gu Immortals, Fang Yuan was only wary of Ye Lui Qun Xing, Unfettered Scholar, Nu Er Gu, such characters of this level.
  2397.  
  2398. Chu Du? Fang Yuan estimated he was still somewhat below him. Fortunately, Chu Du was currently his ally.
  2399.  
  2400. At this moment, the sovereign immortal aperture began to produce red date immortal essence.
  2401.  
  2402. Shortly, Fang Yuan would possess his own red date immortal essence.
  2403.  
  2404. At the same time, he could also merge his accumulated green grape immortal essence and turn them into red date immortal essence.
  2405.  
  2406. One hundred beads of green grape immortal essence could merge into a bead of red date immortal essence.
  2407.  
  2408. "I need to merge them!"
  2409.  
  2410. "If green grape immortal essence was used to activate rank seven Immortal Gu, there would be at least thirty percent additional expenditure. After merging them into red date immortal essence, there won't be any meaningless loss in this aspect."
  2411.  
  2412. "Once some time passes, I will have reserves of red date immortal essence and will no longer have to fear battles of attrition. The difficult situation when Heavenly Lord Bai Zu attacked Hei Fan grotto-heaven will be completely behind me!"
  2413.

  2416. Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
  2417.  
  2418.  
  2419.  
  2420. "Hah!" Hao Zhen flew to the sky and spat out a thunderbolt.
  2421.  
  2422. This thunderbolt shrunk into a ball, with the color of lapis lazuli, and charged towards Hao Zhen's opponent with a speed that seemed to be slow but was actually fast.
  2423.  
  2424. His opponent was a Gu Immortal of Murong tribe who had a burly stature, with muscles that were like layers of rocks, he had a wide nose bridge, large chin, and small forehead, making his head look like a triangle.
  2425.  
  2426. Seeing the thunderbolt approach him, he actually did not dodge and let the thunderbolt land on his body.
  2427.  
  2428. Boom.
  2429.  
  2430. The thunderbolt exploded, lightning splashed out everywhere, dazzling the spectating immortals' eyes for a moment.
  2431.  
  2432. After the lightning dissipated, the Murong tribe Gu Immortal was standing on the same spot without even budging.
  2433.  
  2434. There was a patch of burnt color on his chest from which white smoke was still rising.
  2435.  
  2436. But, the effect was only that.
  2437.  
  2438. "This is your strongest attack? Hmm, you have burned some of my hair, it is a little more powerful than before." This Murong tribe Gu Immortal spoke in a tranquil tone without a hint of frustration.
  2439.  
  2440. "You!" Hao Zhen's eyes seemed to spout fire from anger, but he was not able to retort.
  2441.  
  2442. His strongest killer move had no effect on this opponent.
  2443.  
  2444. "Wonderful!"
  2445.  
  2446. "He is indeed the Gu Immortal famous for his defense in Northern Plains."
  2447.  
  2448. "Murong Gang… this guy has not attacked at all and is only taking the beating passively. Elder Hao Zhen's offense actually could not show any results."
  2449.  
  2450. Both sides' Gu Immortals exclaimed in surprise.
  2451.  
  2452. Fang Yuan killing Ye Lui Qun Xing had been an extremely heavy blow to the righteous path.
  2453.  
  2454. To turn the tide of the situation and raise morale, Gong Wan Ting immediately took measures to make Murong tribe's strongest expert among their current group take action.
  2455.  
  2456. It was this burly man who seemed to be forged from steel — Murong Gang!
  2457.  
  2458. Chu Du was frowning again.
  2459.  
  2460. He sighed internally: "Just now, Ye Lui Qun Xing was killed, now there is Murong Gang. These Huang Jin tribes are indeed the overlords who have ruled Northern Plains for so many years, their accumulation is truly powerful."
  2461.  
  2462. At this moment, Hao Zhen admitted his defeat and returned with a pale expression: "I am ashamed, I could not live up to your expectations."
  2463.  
  2464. Chu Du consoled him with a few words.
  2465.  
  2466. Fang Yuan had not left for long, and he had fallen into the same awkward situation like before.
  2467.  
  2468. He looked at the immortals behind him, but found he had no capable people to send.
  2469.  
  2470. "In my opinion, the strongest person among us is you, supreme elder. But, you cannot easily take the stage, I think you need to call back Elder Liu." Immortal Wang suggested.
  2471.  
  2472. His suggestion was immediately approved by many Gu Immortals.
  2473.  
  2474. "Right, Elder Liu's strength is unfathomable, he can kill Murong Gang!"
  2475.  
  2476. "Elder Liu killed Ye Lui Qun Xing easily, killing Murong Gang won't be a problem for him."
  2477.  
  2478. "Elder Liu's ancient sword dragon breath is too powerful."
  2479.  
  2480. Even Murong Gang spoke: "Domination Immortal, don't send other minor characters. Besides you, the only one who can enter my, Murong Gang's, eyes, is Liu Guan Yi. Bring him out, I would like to experience the power of his dragon breath."
  2481.  
  2482. "Damn it! He is actually looking down on us." Chou Lao Wu was furious.
  2483.  
  2484. Hao Zhen clenched his fists: "If it were two on two, we could use wind thunder roar and wipe them out!"
  2485.  
  2486. After seeing Fang Yuan's power, Hao Zhen and Chou Lao Wu had no more dissatisfaction towards their position of third and fourth supreme elders.
  2487.  
  2488. Hao Zhen was only saying this to retain some face.
  2489.  
  2490. Actually, he was aware that his and Chou Lao Wu's wind thunder roar was powerful, but it was not easy to use it and it required a safe environment.
  2491.  
  2492. Like before, when Heavenly Lord Bai Zu attacked Hei Fan grotto-heaven, they were able to use wind thunder roar because they were protected by other Gu Immortals.
  2493.  
  2494. Everyone was anticipating Fang Yuan's reappearance.
  2495.  
  2496. Chu Du's side hoped Fang Yuan could raise their might again.
  2497.  
  2498. The righteous path's side hoped they could kill Fang Yuan. Avenging Ye Lui tribe was secondary, the main thing was that they wanted to kill this person to salvage their face!
  2499.  
  2500. Chu Du naturally also hoped Fang Yuan would take the stage again.
  2501.  
  2502. But Fang Yuan had not given any reply.
  2503.  
  2504. Chu Du could only smile bitterly at this, and could do nothing about it.
  2505.  
  2506. His and Fang Yuan's relationship was of mutual benefits and they held equal status.
  2507.  
  2508. Lang Ya blessed land, inside a secret room in a cloud city.
  2509.  
  2510. Fang Yuan was sitting cross-legged on a prayer mat, his divine sense entering his immortal aperture.
  2511.  
  2512. He was merging green grape immortal essence and refining them into red date immortal essence.
  2513.  
  2514. This merging method was widely popular and was not anything new.
  2515.  
  2516. Countless mortal Gu was moving on their specific trajectories, some were standing still, some emitted light, while some flew continuously.
  2517.  
  2518. Under the effect of these Gu worms, beads of green grape immortal essence were slowly but surely merging together.
  2519.  
  2520. Tens of thousands of green grape immortal essence were piled in this enormous mortal Gu formation.
  2521.  
  2522. With Fang Yuan's continuous effort, there were already two beads of red date immortal essence produced at the bottom of the green grape immortal essence.
  2523.  
  2524. "Hmm? Chu Du sent a letter again, it is still that Murong Gang… this is already the sixth letter." Fang Yuan's attention slightly diverted.
  2525.  
  2526. Shortly afterwards, he threw this information path mortal Gu aside, having no interest to even reply.
  2527.  
  2528. What blood battle martial competition, I don't give a f*ck!
  2529.  
  2530. Screw off.
  2531.  
  2532. In any case, Fang Yuan's agreement with Chu Sect was extremely loose. Besides some fundamental interests and principles, even if he suddenly did not want to do a task, or his interest waned, or he betrayed the sect, or he voluntarily left Chu Sect, he would receive no backlash.
  2533.  
  2534. What was the nature of this blood battle martial competition?
  2535.  
  2536. Fang Yuan knew it was a political compromise.
  2537.  
  2538. This was a stage which Heavenly Lord Bai Zu and Yao Huang, two rank eights, had discussed and created. It was to restrict the scope of the conflict between one another. The basic purpose was to ensure both sides' interests did not suffer loss beyond their bottom-line.
  2539.  
  2540. Yao Huang knew clearly that since Bai Zu tribe was already established, it could not be destroyed. At least, he alone was not able to do it.
  2541.  
  2542. Because on the opposing side was a rank eight Gu Immortal, Heavenly Lord Bai Zu. As long as he existed, Bai Zu tribe was as stable as a rock.
  2543.  
  2544. Unless Longevity Heaven sent a powerful reinforcement, for example, a rank eight Gu Immortal.
  2545.  
  2546. When he received the Longevity Edict, he was already reluctant. All he needed was to provide an explanation to deal with Longevity Heaven.
  2547.  
  2548. Heavenly Lord Bai Zu did not want to provoke trouble, he had just created his tribe and wanted everything to move smoothly. However, the situation did not permit it. He could only swallow the bitter pill and face the Huang Jin tribes' allied offense.
  2549.  
  2550. Just this competition would do. They would not truly fight to the death!
  2551.  
  2552. Chu Du had seen through these two sides' thoughts, and because he was coincidentally squeezed in between, he took a huge step forward and established Chu Sect, using Heavenly Lord Bai Zu's might to test the response of Northern Plains' righteous path. If it was accepted, he could expand Chu Sect, if it was not accepted, he would disband Chu Sect. The losses wouldn't be huge and were of no concern.
  2553.  
  2554. From Longevity Heaven's standpoint, they naturally did not like seeing other bloodlines mixing in among the righteous path. All along, Northern Plains had been the world of the Huang Jin tribes. They were even more unwilling to see Chu Sect's existence! The master-disciple relationship, compared to the bloodline system, were two different ideologies. Systems based on either one were always sensitive and on guard against the other.
  2555.  
  2556. Longevity Heaven's Gu Immortals were clear that once the master-disciple system was spread, it would greatly shake their tribal forces and benefits.
  2557.  
  2558. Central Continent was a clear example and the best evidence of this.
  2559.  
  2560. "But Longevity Heaven is dreaming if they want to rely on just the Longevity Edict to destroy the alliance between Chu Sect and Bai Zu tribe."
  2561.  
  2562. "Unless they become more resolute and send out rank eight experts to kill Heavenly Lord Bai Zu!"
  2563.  
  2564. "This world is all about strength."
  2565.  
  2566. "Hei tribe did not have a rank eight Gu Immortal to suppress the situation and had also lost their Immortal Gu House, with just some excuses, their fellow Huang Jin tribe members destroyed them."
  2567.  
  2568. "Bai Zu tribe is an outsider and not of Huang Jin bloodline, but there is Heavenly Lord Bai Zu, making it a completely different situation."
  2569.  
  2570. "Strength… strength…"
  2571.  
  2572. Fang Yuan's thoughts lingered over this word.
  2573.  
  2574. Rank seven cultivation level.
  2575.  
  2576. This was an accomplishment, but to him, it was only another starting point.
  2577.  
  2578. "The blood battle martial competition does not match my interests."
  2579.  
  2580. "I have the sovereign immortal aperture and can annex other immortal apertures, skipping calamities and tribulations to raise my cultivation and strength. This is a shortcut for cultivation, filled with slaughter and blood. But… I like it."
  2581.  
  2582. "I want chaos, the more chaos, the better!"
  2583.  
  2584. "But the five regions chaotic war is still over four hundred years later! It is too far away, I can't wait that long."
  2585.  
  2586. "I need to think of a way to make them fight. The blood battle martial competition is too gentle, how many can be killed? If there are no deaths, there won't be blessed lands."
  2587.  
  2588. "There is also Lang Ya Sect and the four races alliance, hehe, if I let Northern Plains' human Gu Immortals know of them, what will their response be? Regretfully, I am bound by alliance agreements. Although there is 'Do Not Care', it cannot resolve the underlying problem!"
  2589.  
  2590. Fang Yuan's only worry was that the world wouldn't be chaotic, sinister and dangerous thoughts started to rise up in his mind.
  2591.  
  2592. He did not intend to go to Blood Plain.
  2593.  
  2594. The sect's enthusiastic anticipation and the enemy's provocation, what value did they have?
  2595.  
  2596. Fang Yuan had to spend all his effort to kill Ye Lui Qun Xing. If his actions had slightly slowed, he would have lost the opportunity. Would those three Immortal Gu Houses just stay there like decorations?
  2597.  
  2598. Especially that Murong Gang, he was a tough foe, it would not be easy for Fang Yuan to defeat him, let alone kill him.
  2599.  
  2600. Since the start of the battle, Chu Du's side had lost many times, while the righteous path had not even lost one-third of the time.
  2601.  
  2602. Hehe, there definitely would be some internal conflicts of the sect involved in this.
  2603.  
  2604. This was a trick righteous path Gu Immortals liked to play.
  2605.  
  2606. Fang Yuan had first thought of going to Southern Border.
  2607.  
  2608. Over these last days, he had adjusted his cultivation plan, using almost all his time and energy in refining dream path mortal Gu.
  2609.  
  2610. It was all preparation for that giant dream realm in Southern Border.
  2611.  
  2612. But he thought and thought, and felt the opportunity at this blood battle martial competition was truly too rare.
  2613.  
  2614. Adding on that on Southern Border's end, it was occupied by the righteous path whom had arranged a super Gu formation to tightly defend the giant dream realm, Fang Yuan felt it would be very difficult for him to meddle in and did not have any opening currently.
  2615.  
  2616. Thus, after Fang Yuan refined all the green grape immortal essence into red date immortal essence, he quietly left Lang Ya blessed land and arrived at Liu tribe's territory.
  2617.  
  2618. He was going to do something bad.

  2624.  
  2625.  
  2626. Northern Plains, Bone Burial Field.
  2627.  
  2628. This was a place filled with white bones, countless piles of skeletons were together.
  2629.  
  2630. There were some huge skeletons resembling hills, and also small skeletons unassumingly situated by the side.
  2631.  
  2632. Most skeletons were pale white in color, under the corrosion of nature in the sun and wind, their flesh had already decomposed, only these strong and tough bones of the desolate beasts and ancient desolate beasts remained.
  2633.  
  2634. But there were also some bones with special colors. Some were yellow and shining brightly, some were purple and alluring, emitting poisonous gas.
  2635.  
  2636. Gu Immortal Liu Yong was paying close attention.
  2637.  
  2638. He had the Huang Jin bloodline, he was a rank six enslavement path Gu Immortal of Liu tribe.
  2639.  
  2640. Right now, he was manipulating six desolate beast bone armor hounds as he traveled in Bone Burial Field, searching for his target.
  2641.  
  2642. The formation of Bone Burial Field had several possible rumored origins.
  2643.  
  2644. Some said that during the Olden Antiquity Era, two enslavement path great experts engaged in a life and death battle here, resulting in the deaths of many desolate beasts and ancient desolate beasts.
  2645.  
  2646. Some said that this was a graveyard of bone monsters. Countless bone monsters felt that their lifespans were ending, so they came here and buried themselves.
  2647.  
  2648. Some even speculated that this was a Gu refinement ground created by a refinement path great grandmaster during ancient times, after countless years had passed, it reached this present state.
  2649.  
  2650. But no matter what, Bone Burial Field contained large numbers of desolate beast and ancient desolate beast corpses.
  2651.  
  2652. Liu tribe controlled this place and developed it wholeheartedly, trying to turn this into a production base for bone path Gu worms.
  2653.  
  2654. And every year, Liu Yong would borrow the use of this place, to pick suitable bones for his bone armor hounds and replenish their bone armor.
  2655.  
  2656. "This white bone seems like a snake bone, it is soft and cannot be used. If it is eaten, the bone armor would be soft and have no defensive properties."
  2657.  
  2658. "This is a poison Gu, bone armor hounds do not have high resistance against poison, they will die if they eat this."
  2659.  
  2660. "This bone is not bad, it seems to be a desolate beast steel skin giant lizard's bone. Even though it is not the hardest, it is good enough, especially when it can endure heavy weight."
  2661.  
  2662. Liu Yong inspected for a moment, discovering more and more loot.
  2663.  
  2664. Eventually, he placed his beloved hounds, the six bone armor hounds, at six different locations.
  2665.  
  2666. He himself was lying down on a huge skull, looking at the sky.
  2667.  
  2668. "Today has good weather, it is sunny with gentle breeze." He looked at the blue sky, there were no clouds anywhere, and the sunlight was not intense, wind blew on his face mildly, he felt very comfortable.
  2669.  
  2670. Looking at the empty sky, Liu Yong felt really bored.
  2671.  
  2672. "Hmm? The tribe has sent an information Gu here?" Suddenly, his brows rose as his eyes shone with light, he sensed that something interesting was coming.
  2673.  
  2674. His mind quickly entered his immortal aperture, as his consciousness entered the information path Gu worm.
  2675.  
  2676. The contents of the Gu worm spoke about the advancements and developments that Liu tribe had made in the last few months.
  2677.  
  2678. Next were some rumors, and the actions of experts recently.
  2679.  
  2680. Finally, the most important point, it talked about the developments of the blood battle martial competition.
  2681.  
  2682. "Murong Gang defeated eight people in a row, impressive!"
  2683.  
  2684. "However, between every battle, he has to recover for two hours. He is unlike Ye Lui Qun Xing, he could fight consecutively."
  2685.  
  2686. "I heard that Murong Gang has strong defensive methods, but his immortal essence expenditure is huge as well!"
  2687.  
  2688. "Sigh, speaking of Ye Lui Qun Xing, it was really a pity. He was actually killed by Chu Sect's second supreme elder in a sneak attack, that was really despicable!"
  2689.  
  2690. Liu tribe was a Huang Jin tribe, a righteous path force, when spreading the information, they naturally placed it from their own perspective for their political benefit.
  2691.  
  2692. Even though the information was not wrong, the way it was written would give others a different feeling when reading it.
  2693.  
  2694. For example, 'losing repeatedly' and 'fighting on despite repeated setbacks', between the two phrases, they would provide different impressions.
  2695.  
  2696. All in all, it talked about how strong Fang Yuan was, and the facts about his ancient sword dragon transformation, the information also emphasized on how shameless he was, and how devious and scheming he acted.
  2697.  
  2698. The 'Liu Guan Yi' identity that Fang Yuan was using had definitely became (in)famous after this battle, nobody in Northern Plains' Gu Immortal world did not know of him, even Prince Feng Xian and Heavenly Lord Bai Zu learned of him, even in the other regions, like Central Continent, they heard about Liu Guan Yi.
  2699.  
  2700. After expressing his anger and disdain towards Fang Yuan, Liu Yong thought about himself, sighing.
  2701.  
  2702. "I cultivate enslavement path, I am not suited to one-on-one fights."
  2703.  
  2704. "When can I gain such fame at the blood battle martial competition too?"
  2705.  
  2706. "Maybe one day, I can defeat Liu Guan Yi and challenge Domination Immortal Chu Du! Wouldn't that be really cool!"
  2707.  
  2708. Liu Yong was thinking about this when suddenly, there was a huge explosion.
  2709.  
  2710. Rumble!
  2711.  
  2712. The entire ground was shaking intensely.
  2713.  
  2714. "What, what is going on?!" The giant skull below Liu Yong had fallen off the neck of the skeleton due to the tremors.
  2715.  
  2716. Liu Yong quickly got up as he floated in the air, staring widely in bewilderment: "This defensive Gu formation is being attacked, someone is attacking here? This is the territory of my Liu tribe!"
  2717.  
  2718. Thinking of this, Liu Yong felt that it was unimaginable.
  2719.  
  2720. My Liu tribe is a great righteous path force, a Huang Jin tribe, we are a domineering force in the whole of Northern Plains.
  2721.  
  2722. Especially recently, their long-time enemy, Hei tribe, was gone, and Chu Du was also being targeted, the future looked promising and they were currently in high spirits, someone was actually attacking Liu tribe's territory now?
  2723.  
  2724. Who gave them the guts?
  2725.  
  2726. Their dog guts were truly rivalling heaven!
  2727.  
  2728. Liu Yong was furious, and also slightly glad: "Thankfully, I came here to pick up bones and feed my bone armor hounds, heh, the attacker is really unlucky to have encountered me… eh?!"
  2729.  
  2730. At the next moment, Liu Yong saw the invader.
  2731.  
  2732. Or rather, a dragon.
  2733.  
  2734. An ancient sword dragon!
  2735.  
  2736. It had pale white eyes, a sharp horn that extended to the sky, its scales were shiny and thick, its claws were sharp and powerful, it had a muscular tail, and its teeth gave off a chilly feeling, Liu Yong shuddered upon seeing it.
  2737.  
  2738. "Oh? It seems that a member of Liu tribe is here, my luck is pretty good." The ancient sword dragon spoke human words, as its dragon eyes emitted strong killing intent.
  2739.  
  2740. "Liu, Liu Guan Yi?!" Liu Yong was stunned.
  2741.  
  2742. At this moment, he wanted to cry.
  2743.  
  2744. His heart was pounding intensely, his body was uncontrollably shaking as Liu Yong screamed internally to himself: "Stay calm, quickly calm down, Liu Yong! You can do it."
  2745.  
  2746. Another voice in his head was resounding: "Calm down my ass, he is Liu Guan Yi, even Ye Lui Qun Xing died at his hands. He is scheming and shameless, unscrupulous and shrewd, I am just a tiny rank six Gu Immortal."
  2747.  
  2748. "Calm down, calm down! Right, right! Liu Guan Yi is the second supreme elder of Chu Sect, isn't Chu Sect a righteous path force? Then Liu Guan Yi is a righteous path Gu Immortal! As a righteous path member, how can he attack us for no reason? Attacking us for wealth, that is a demonic path act." Liu Guan Yi calmly analyzed.
  2749.  
  2750. At the same time, another voice screamed in his head: "Then tell me, why is Liu Guan Yi not participating in the blood battle martial competition, but here instead? He destroyed our Liu tribe's defensive Gu formation, his evil intentions are apparent! What else could he want?!"
  2751.  
  2752. Even though Liu Yong's name had 'courage' 1 in it, at this moment, he was completely gutless, he stammered as his tongue was shivering: "Liu, Lord Liu, why are you here at my, my Liu tribe…"
  2753.  
  2754. "Of course it is to…" Fang Yuan purposely dragged his words out.
  2755.  
  2756. "Is, is to what?" Liu Yong asked.
  2757.  
  2758. Fang Yuan's reply was not in words, it was his dragon breath.
  2759.  
  2760. This was the ancient sword dragon's breath, having the rank seven dragon breath Immortal Gu in it, the speed was fast like a flash of white light!
  2761.  
  2762. Liu Yong's upper body blew up.
  2763.  
  2764. Fresh blood spewed out, scattering on the pale white bones, detailing the sadness and pathetic state of a weakling.
  2765.  
  2766. The two halves of his body landed on the ground, his expression before death was still frozen on his face, his eyes were staring wide open.
  2767.  
  2768. "Useless fellow. But it is not strange… all of the Huang Jin tribes have been in power for too long, there is unavoidably some rot on the inside. Just like the ten great ancient sects." Fang Yuan analyzed internally.
  2769.  
  2770. The bigger the tree, the more leaves it would have, and unavoidably, it would have some rotten wilting leaves as well.
  2771.  
  2772. Woof woof woof!
  2773.  
  2774. The six bone armor hounds barked at Fang Yuan angrily.
  2775.  
  2776. Their owner was dead, but they still feel attached to him, they all ran over, guarding their master's corpse, defending it loyally, as if hoping that it would revive.
  2777.  
  2778. Seeing this, Fang Yuan's evaluation of Liu Yong rose by a bit: "It seems that he is passable in raising desolate beasts, unfortunately, they do not have the wisdom of Gu Immortals, what can these six beasts do?"
  2779.  
  2780. Fang Yuan sneered as he flew down.
  2781.  
  2782. This battle had no unexpected surprises.
  2783.  
  2784. An hour later, six fainted bone armor hounds were lying in Fang Yuan's sovereign immortal aperture.
  2785.  
  2786. These desolate beast hounds appeared at a good time, Fang Yuan was about to buy some desolate beast dogs and use their faeces to feed dog shit luck Immortal Gu.
  2787.  
  2788. There were also a vast amount of desolate beast and ancient desolate beast corpses, they had extremely high value.
  2789.  
  2790. Fang Yuan placed them in his sovereign immortal aperture, temporarily storing them somewhere.
  2791.  
  2792. And finally, Liu Yong's corpse, his immortal aperture was still hidden in his stomach, Fang Yuan sealed it for now.
  2793.  
  2794. This enslavement path immortal aperture was suited for Fang Yuan to annex.
  2795.  
  2796. And also, Liu Yong's soul.
  2797.  
  2798. After being hit by Fang Yuan's dragon breath, although extremely weak and at Fang Yuan's mercy, it was still alive.
  2799.  
  2800. Fang Yuan quickly thought of the reason: "This Liu Yong was an enslavement path Gu Immortal, enslavement and soul path are related, to manipulate desolate beasts, one must have a sufficiently strong soul foundation."
  2801.  
  2802. Fang Yuan quickly left the scene of the crime.
  2803.  
  2804. He moved very quickly.
  2805.  
  2806. Only a tattered defensive Gu formation was left, and the empty Bone Burial Field, as well as the upper body of Liu Yong.
  2807.  
  2808. "The next location, Liu tribe's jade light pit."
  2809.  
  2810. Fang Yuan licked his lips, showing excitement in his eyes.
  2811.  
  2812. He had just committed murder, but now he was not going to retreat, he was going to attempt another crime!
  2813.  
  2814. As the saying goes — With the murder weapon in hand, killing intent surges.
  2815.  
  2816. Fang Yuan was a rank seven Gu Immortal with ancient sword dragon transformation, his battle strength had risen immensely, he was starting to become somewhat unrestrained.

  2827.  
  2828.  
  2829.  
  2830. Whoosh!
  2831.  
  2832. A figure flew in the sky, tearing across space as a shrill sound could be heard.
  2833.  
  2834. It was Fang Yuan.
  2835.  
  2836. Right now, he was still in the ancient sword dragon form, he was using sword escape Immortal Gu and flying rapidly.
  2837.  
  2838. This speed was terrifying!
  2839.  
  2840. Back then when he killed Ye Lui Qun Xing, almost none of the Gu Immortals managed to react.
  2841.  
  2842. Of course, his burst of speed at that time was shocking! But now, Fang Yuan was traveling a long journey, his speed was lower now, compared to his peak burst of speed.
  2843.  
  2844. Even so, he was very fast.
  2845.  
  2846. "My speed is top tier even in Northern Plains' Gu Immortal world. Of course, I cannot compare to Hui Feng Zi. Chu Du's body strength travel is far below me now."
  2847.  
  2848. Hui Feng Zi was most skilled in speed, he was known as the fastest person in Northern Plains. Disregarding any hidden cultivators, Hui Feng Zi was truly worthy of this. Because there was once a rank eight Gu Immortal who chased him but failed to capture him.
  2849.  
  2850. Fang Yuan was still far inferior compared to him.
  2851.  
  2852. This was the case for both straight distance travel and nimbleness.
  2853.  
  2854. But Chu Du's body strength travel had indeed been faster than Fang Yuan's sword escape Immortal Gu in terms of straight distance travel.
  2855.  
  2856. Now, Fang Yuan turned into the ancient sword dragon, his original flying speed with his dao mark amplification caused Fang Yuan's speed to surpass Chu Du.
  2857.  
  2858. Not to mention that Chu Du's immortal killer move, body strength travel, had a major flaw, it could only fly straight, it could not turn and had low nimbleness.
  2859.  
  2860. "If compared to rank eight Gu Immortals, how would I fare?" Fang Yuan had a question in his mind.
  2861.  
  2862. Immediately, he shook his head.
  2863.  
  2864. Rank eight Gu Immortals were all unfathomable, if they wanted to pursue Fang Yuan, he would be in danger. His initial burst of speed might surpass them and pull some distance, but in a long distance chase, he would definitely become slower.
  2865.  
  2866. And pursuing methods were not just about speed. Rank eight Gu Immortals had a wide variety of methods, they could do other things like Gu formations, teleportation, long range attacks and others.
  2867.  
  2868. "I have just destroyed Liu tribe's Bone Burial Field, and even killed an enslavement path Gu Immortal of Liu tribe, Liu Yong. When he was alive, he had already informed his tribe, as a super force, Liu tribe will definitely send Gu Immortals to pursue me."
  2869.  
  2870. "However, Liu tribe's available fighters are all at the blood battle martial competition. The remaining Gu Immortals are at the resource points, or have missions to attend to, it is not easy to send people out, especially people who are able to deal with the expert Liu Guan Yi, time is needed."
  2871.  
  2872. "After they get to Bone Burial Field, they will still need some time to chase me. They would not think that instead of retreating, I actually went to the southeast direction and plan to rob the jade light pit next. In this case, these Liu tribe pursuers might waste even more time."
  2873.  
  2874. "With all this wasted time, I can definitely devour the whole of jade light pit."
  2875.  
  2876. Fang Yuan had been collecting information about the outside world while he was cultivating.
  2877.  
  2878. Liu tribe was big and eye-catching, a lot of their resource points in the outside world were known to all. Sometimes, in order to display their own strength and foundation, Liu tribe's Gu Immortals would expose intel about these places themselves. For example, the Bone Burial Field's production of mortal Gu, and how many profits they derived.
  2879.  
  2880. Fang Yuan had been very interested in Liu tribe's jade light pit.
  2881.  
  2882. Because of attitude Gu.
  2883.  
  2884. To feed attitude Gu, he needed a vast number of flowing light fruits.
  2885.  
  2886. The higher the rank of the Immortal Gu, the longer the interval of feeding, and the greater amount eaten each time.
  2887.  
  2888. Fang Yuan had already bought a lot of flowing light fruits in treasure yellow heaven earlier, he had planted them in sovereign blessed land, using fruits to bring about more fruits.
  2889.  
  2890. Right now, he needed huge amounts of dazzling light Gu between his flowing light fruits to increase the amount of light. With intense light, brand new flowing light fruits would form.
  2891.  
  2892. This method was not only efficient, it was simple and easy for Fang Yuan to control.
  2893.  
  2894. And inside the jade light pit, there were all sorts of light Gu. For example, jade light Gu, reflect light Gu, borrow light Gu, return light Gu, all sorts of colored light Gu, like blue light Gu, red light Gu, black light Gu, and others. Dazzling light Gu was one of them.
  2895.  
  2896. Fang Yuan raced against time, right now, they were already alerted, his time was very precious.
  2897.  
  2898. "There is a cloud layer in front." Joy flashed across the ancient sword dragon's eyes.
  2899.  
  2900. At this time, he was already near the jade light pit, a huge cloud layer was able to conceal Fang Yuan's traces.
  2901.  
  2902. "I am quite lucky, to think there was a cloud layer here. If the Liu tribe Gu Immortal defending the jade light pit is careless, I might even be able to sneak attack!"
  2903.  
  2904. Fang Yuan carried anticipation as he rushed into the cloud layer.
  2905.  
  2906. The thickness of the cloud layer completely concealed the ancient sword dragon's body.
  2907.  
  2908. But the truth was not as nice as Fang Yuan had hoped.
  2909.  
  2910. In the jade light pit, Liu tribe Gu Immortal Liu Luo felt something, she stared with wide opened eyes: "An enemy!"
  2911.  
  2912. This Liu Luo was nearly two hundred years old, but she had the body of a young child, her eyes were watery and bright, her petite body was so cute and delicate, people would want to protect her.
  2913.  
  2914. She was the Liu tribe Gu Immortal guarding the jade light pit, she was very alert now.
  2915.  
  2916. All because of Liu Yong's report, all of Liu tribe's Gu Immortals were notified, they were all on guard.
  2917.  
  2918. The jade light pit's defensive Gu formation did not have any Immortal Gu, Fang Yuan's transformation, the ancient sword dragon, easily tore the defense and got in.
  2919.  
  2920. "It is Liu Guan Yi indeed, he did not escape, he is here to attack my jade light pit!" Seeing the ruthless ancient sword dragon, Liu Luo was furious and shocked.
  2921.  
  2922. "I cannot escape, my speed is not as fast as the ancient sword dragon."
  2923.  
  2924. "Thankfully I planted many seeds here! I can only persevere and wait for reinforcements."
  2925.  
  2926. "Brother, save me quickly…"
  2927.  
  2928. Liu Luo quickly analyzed, at the same time, she muttered as the ground of the jade light pit tore open, dozens of vines resembling dragons or pythons drilled out.
  2929.  
  2930. Next, countless trees expanded like jade umbrellas, becoming larger and larger until a huge forest was formed!
  2931.  
  2932. Liu Luo hid herself in the forest and vanished.
  2933.  
  2934. "It seems that they are on guard." Fang Yuan took a glance and saw Liu Luo, before she vanished from his perception.
  2935.  
  2936. "Rank six wood path… but this forest was meticulously created, it is quite troublesome to deal with." Fang Yuan was strong, but this was a tough nut to crack.
  2937.  
  2938. Because this forest was an immortal battlefield killer move.
  2939.  
  2940. Liu Luo was a rank six Gu Immortal, but she had an immortal battlefield killer move, this was atypical.
  2941.  
  2942. But Fang Yuan felt no surprise.
  2943.  
  2944. From Liu Yong's soul, he obtained a lot of information. Liu tribe had Liu Chang and Liu Luo, these two siblings, because of their father's protection, both of them became Gu Immortals.
  2945.  
  2946. Liu Chang was a rank seven Gu Immortal, his battle strength was not lower than Ye Lui Qun Xing. But this time, to get rid of the mud monster group in Liu tribe's great mud pit, he could not spare any time outside.
  2947.  
  2948. Liu Chang had great battle strength and status, especially when Liu tribe had no rank eight Gu Immortals.
  2949.  
  2950. Liu Chang doted on his little sister Liu Luo since a young age, he even gave her lifespan Gu.
  2951.  
  2952. This wood path battlefield killer move was obtained by Liu Chang for Liu Luo to have a strong trump card defending her.
  2953.  
  2954. Fang Yuan thought about it, he did not deal with this forest, he charged straight for the Gu worms in the pit.
  2955.  
  2956. Countless Gu worms were taken by him, kept into his immortal aperture.
  2957.  
  2958. Liu Luo watched with much fear, gritting her teeth. This Liu Guan Yi was robbing her in her face, this proud female immortal felt extremely humiliated and angry.
  2959.  
  2960. "This Liu Guan Yi is truly too daring!"
  2961.  
  2962. "He dared to kill my Liu tribe's Gu Immortals and even steal our cultivation resources!"
  2963.  
  2964. "It is a pity I do not have enough strength, otherwise, I would make you pay the consequences."
  2965.  
  2966. Liu Luo hid inside the battlefield killer move and did not dare to show herself.
  2967.  
  2968. Even after Fang Yuan left, she did not reveal her traces.
  2969.  
  2970. Not long after, there was white light in the sky.
  2971.  
  2972. The light was painful to the eyes, it suppressed even the sun's radiance.
  2973.  
  2974. As the white light charged down, it formed into a male Gu Immortal.
  2975.  
  2976. He had a skinny body and a sharp face, he had bean-like eyes, and showed anxiety and rage on his face.
  2977.  
  2978. "Brother!" Liu Luo saw this person and immediately appeared between the trees, feeling elated.
  2979.  
  2980. "Sister, you are safe!! I was so worried about you!" The person who came was Liu Chang, he saw that Liu Luo was fine and calmed down, the anxiety on his face turned into joy.
  2981.  
  2982. Liu Luo was also overjoyed, but she was still very cautious: "Brother, let's match our secret code, before I let you in."
  2983.  
  2984. There was no issue, Liu Chang entered the battlefield killer move and the siblings hugged each other tightly upon meeting.
  2985.  
  2986. "Sister, you must have been shocked, right? Don't worry, brother is here."
  2987.  
  2988. "Brother, that Liu Guan Yi is so terrible, he took away all of the Gu worms inside the jade light pit, not a single one is left. I failed to defend them, the tribe is definitely going to punish me."
  2989.  
  2990. "No need to worry, no need to worry, with me here, I will protect you. Don't be afraid, cheer up, I will back you up no matter what." Liu Chang doted on his sister, even though she was actually nearly two hundred years old.
  2991.  
  2992. He touched Liu Luo's head as he consoled: "Brother will go kill this bad person and avenge you, sister."
  2993.  
  2994. In fact, he was sent by Liu tribe to capture Fang Yuan to begin with.
  2995.  
  2996. Liu Chang's battle strength was not inferior to Ye Lui Qun Xing's. He cultivated light path and was specialized in speed and movement, he could retreat or advance easily.
  2997.  
  2998. Between Gu Immortals, once one party had advantage in speed, they would gain initiative in the battle. Whether they fought or retreated, it would be up to them.
  2999.  
  3000. While the siblings interacted, more Liu tribe Gu Immortals arrived.
  3001.  
  3002. Just now, Fang Yuan killed Liu Yong and took Liu tribe's resources, the entire tribe was furious!
  3003.  
  3004. Not only did they send Liu Chang, they also sent two more Gu Immortals to assist him and ensure that they succeeded.
  3005.  
  3006. "My goodness, our tribe's jade light pit was completely robbed by Liu Guan Yi!"
  3007.  
  3008. "KIll him, we have to kill him, otherwise, our Liu tribe's anger will not be appeased!!"
  3009.  
  3010. The two new Gu Immortals who arrived screamed.
  3011.  
  3012. "Stop screaming, you are so loud, what if you scare my sister?" Liu Chang raised his head and yelled back.
  3013.  
  3014. The two Liu tribe Gu Immortals knew about Liu Chang and quickly lowered their volume.
  3015.  
  3016. Among them, one used an investigative method and quickly found traces of Fang Yuan: "He escaped there, let's chase him!"
  3017.
