Chapter 7: Deceiving The Land Spirit
There was only a vast sea of whiteness in Fang Yuan's sight. His primeval essence was depleting rapidly by activating so many movement Gu and defensive Gu.
"Time and tide wait for no man, land spirit help me, divine travel Gu!"
Immortal Gu divine travel landed on his palm.
"Jade sky Gu!"
A ray of green light shot out from his aperture and landed on his hand, turning into a jade-green colored bamboo that was hollow in the middle.
"What in the world is he trying to do? He actually faced the killer move head-on and flew up!" Tie Ruo Nan stared with wide-opened eyes, expressing her shock.
"Did little beast king give up, and is trying to end his life?" Yan Jun's jaws were wide open as he looked up in a daze.
"Something's up, I understand him! Everything Fang Yuan does has extremely deep meaning! No matter what, we can't let him have his way, we must disrupt this!" Bai Ning Bing's tone was hurried and for some reason, the bad feeling in her heart continued to become stronger.
Tie Ruo Nan nodded and agreed with Bai Ning Bing's words.
"Four old-timers!" She shouted.
"Understood!" The four old-timers immediately moved separately towards east, south, west and north directions; they kneeled on the ground and held their right wrist with their left hand, their right hands were spread out in a claw form and faced each other.
Killer move — Infinite search and lock!
Almost at the same time, Fang Yuan's left arm shone with an eerie-blue light; one could vaguely see the fixed star Gu on it.
This Gu was a star fragment of the immemorial era, it was like an eight-sided diamond and was crystal clear!
At the same time, all around Fang Yuan, space tore apart and four chains appeared, moving like pythons.
"Finally reacting at this point? Hmph, too late!" Fang Yuan gave a cold smile.
Divine travel Gu suddenly flew and pierced into his left arm, swallowing the fixed star Gu.
The four old timers coughed out blood as they lost the connection with the fixed star Gu.
The four chains moving beside Fang Yuan also lost their target and flew about carelessly before they were destroyed by the river of light.
After the divine travel Gu ate fixed star Gu, it went into the hollow jade sky Gu and rapidly formed a cocoon.
"Huh? There is a strange person flying directly towards my killer move?!" Xiao Mang was indescribably shocked. Others often did not have enough time to dodge his killer move but now there was actually a fool who was facing it head-on!
"Who is this guy? What is he trying to do?" Yi Huo, Yi Chong and the others stared at the sky with stupefied looks.
"Wait a second, this scene, where did I see it before!" Li Xian frowned deeply, a ray of light flashed in his astute mind.
"How could this be, he seems to be… refining Gu?" Feng Tian Yu looked up for a while and after seeing somewhat clearly he immediately became shocked.
"He is actually refining Gu using the killer move, his courage knows no bounds!" Mo Wu Tian's eyes shot out purple light that extended two inches into the air.
He deceived the land spirit and intentionally delayed time to create such a special situation to convince the land spirit and refine this Gu.
Similar to the second aperture Gu, this Gu was also an Immortal Gu whose recipe was recorded in chapter two section three of <
<
It appeared to be a story when one first read it but it actually held profound messages, recording the secrets of the ancient times and all kinds of Gu. Some Gu were directly described like wisdom Gu, strength Gu and so on. While some Gu were hidden, their descriptions were very vague, requiring the readers to dig through it and study carefully.
The light of glory of the immemorial era shone on the cocoon.
Absorbing the glory of the immemorial era, the cocoon was undergoing a mystical change.
Fang Yuan's body was shining in golden brilliance, swimming up against the flow of the torrential light stream. Facing the strong killer move of a rank five Gu Master, liquid metal Gu's defense was starting to become useless.
The golden protection was washed away by the light eventually.
Especially the bone wings, it slowly revealed its original black color after being washed by the torrential light stream.
In the grand waterfall of light, a lone body was flying with great difficulty while facing great pressure.
Such a mystical sight naturally attracted many Gu Master's attention.
The battlefield slowly turned silent.
Land spirit assisted Fang Yuan fully, after the dogs lost their master, they scattered. All the Gu Masters stood on the spot, raising their heads and watching.
In their hearts, they had one question — "This scenario, I have obviously not seen it before, yet why do I find it so familiar?"
"I remember, I remember now!" Suddenly, someone shouted: "This scene was recorded in the legends of Ren Zu, that's why it is so familiar!"
<
Getting such a reminder, many people realized at once.
"That's right, this was recorded in Ren Zu's second chapter, third section."
"I remember now, Verdant Great Sun flapped his wings and bathed in the light of glory in order to refine fixed immortal travel Gu, flying towards the sun."
People recalled, laughing immediately.
"What is this person doing? Copying Verdant Great Sun, and disregarding his life?"
"Haha, don't tell me he is thinking of refining fixed immortal travel Gu?"
"How is that possible! He has divine travel Gu?"
Of course Fang Yuan had it!
But divine travel Gu was not enough, it was recorded in <
Verdant Great Sun was afraid that divine travel Gu would send him to dangerous places while he was drunk. Divine travel Gu was ashamed because of this, thus directing him: "Go up into the sky, and in the azure heaven among the nine heavens, there is a bamboo forest. Inside the bamboo forest, pluck a jade bamboo that is jade sky in color.
Next, go to blue heaven and during the night time, collect the eight-sided diamonds inside the star fragments. Next, when it is dawn, fly into the sky and use the light of glory of the rising sun to turn me into fixed immortal travel Gu. Once I become that Gu, I will no longer send you to random places when you are drunk."
Thus, Fang Yuan needed the a jade sky colored jade bamboo from azure heaven, and an eight-sided diamond star fragment from blue heaven.
And also, the light of glory of the immemorial era.
This Gu was rank five and originated from the immemorial era. It was like a dark green bamboo stem, palm size and hollow in the middle, giving off a texture of jade on the surface.
This was the azure heaven's jade bamboo!
<
But the jade sky bamboo was not enough, he needed the eight-sided diamond star fragment.
Indeed, the fixed star Gu.
This Gu was a star fragment from the immemorial era, looking like a diamond with eight sides, it was planted on Fang Yuan's left forearm, giving off starlight, able to project a half-transparent eerie blue light from his arm.
So now he had the jade sky bamboo and the eight-sided diamond star fragment, but to refine fixed immortal travel Gu, Fang Yuan needed one final condition — that is what the land spirit mentioned — the light of glory of the immemorial era.
Did Fang Yuan have this?
From start to end, he had never obtained it.
But Xiao Mang had it.
Divine travel Gu, jade sky Gu, fixed star Gu, as well as the light of the immemorial era, all the conditions were fulfilled!
The land spirit's obsession was to refine second aperture Gu.
Thus, Bai Ning Bing, Tie Ruo Nan, and the righteous demonic factions became Fang Yuan's tools!
He calculated meticulously in his heart, controlling the flow of events as he swayed them in his favor, causing this result. When the land spirit realized that no matter what, the second aperture Gu would not be refined successfully, it would change its goal to protecting Fang Yuan, as that is the only way hope remains.
The cocoon absorbed the sunlight, trembling slightly as the aura of an Immortal Gu leaked out uncontrollably.
Everyone was flabbergasted.
"Such an aura, how is this possible?!" Tie Ruo Nan, Bai Ning Bing and the others were staring with their eyes popping out.
"He is refining Gu, he is really refining an Immortal Gu?! Who is he? Is he the reincarnation of Verdant Great Sun?" Yi Huo, Yi Chong, and the others were staring with their jaws dropping.
"Fixed immortal travel! Is he really refining fixed immortal travel Gu? To think that I, Feng Tian Yu, would get the see the birth of an Immortal Gu!" This refinement master kneeled on the ground emotionally, tears overflowing on his face.
