Star Lord Wan Xiang appeared in Northern Plains near Crimson Reed Marsh, where Qin Bai Sheng's auction would be held. Star Lord Wan Xiang disguised himself as an ordinary man with unremarkable features, and the only thing noteworthy about him was the rank seven aura emanating from his body.
Star Lord Wan Xiang moved swiftly and lightly, setting up layers of formations before releasing Fang Yuan from his immortal aperture.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng remained inside the immortal aperture and did not complain about being left there alone.
Fang Yuan looked at his star path clone before taking out four Immortal Gu.
"Familiar Face Immortal Gu, although it is only rank seven and several levels weaker than the true familiar face, it can still be used in a first-rate immortal killer move. Also, these are Expel Soul Immortal Gu, Star Travel Immortal Gu, and Imitation Immortal Gu." Fang Yuan handed all these Immortal Gu worms to Star Lord Wan Xiang, along with their corresponding immortal killer moves.
The most valuable thing among them was Familiar Face Immortal Gu. Fang Yuan had possessed the Immortal Gu recipe for Familiar Face for a long time. Near the end of his previous life, he had raised his transformation path attainment to quasi-supreme grandmaster through the Primordial Domain.
Combined with his refinement path attainment and the immortal killer move familiar face as a foundation, it had been relatively easy to deduce the Immortal Gu recipe for Familiar Face from rank six all the way to rank eight. There were also Immortal Gu recipes for Vaguely Familiar Face and Unfamiliar Face.
Fang Yuan did not need these Immortal Gu worms. The immortal killer move familiar face was rank eight and used Attitude Gu as its core, making it extremely special.
Fang Yuan was merely a rank six Gu Immortal, yet he could use a rank eight immortal killer move to disguise himself. Because of this, he had never cared much about refining Familiar Face Immortal Gu.
But after splitting his soul and creating a star path clone, he had to refine the Immortal Gu to prevent the identity of his split soul from being exposed.
"I'll leave now. Since the Gu Immortals of Northern Plains have their full attention focused on Qin Bai Sheng's auction, this is the perfect opportunity for us to act." Star Lord Wan Xiang informed them before releasing Tai Bai Yun Sheng from his immortal aperture and departing.
"Where is elder brother going? The auction is only a few hours away." Tai Bai Yun Sheng asked after seeing Star Lord Wan Xiang leave so quickly.
"Elder brother is a rank seven Gu Immortal. With power comes responsibility. Perhaps master assigned him some tasks in Northern Plains that must be completed without attracting attention." Fang Yuan spoke casually.
"Sigh, third senior brother is a rank seven Gu Immortal. Without a doubt, he is a powerful figure who only receives orders directly from master." Tai Bai Yun Sheng sighed in admiration.
Fang Yuan did not speak. He merely remained beside Tai Bai Yun Sheng, waiting for someone.
In the distance, a rank six variant human Gu Immortal was moving rapidly. He had thick white hair and unhealthy yellow skin.
It was Mo Tan Sang.
Mo Tan Sang approached the location Fang Yuan had sent him. Mo Tan Sang was not worried about Fang Yuan betraying him; after all, the two had signed an alliance agreement, with Lang Ya land spirit acting as witness.
Mo Tan Sang would not trust someone he had only recently met, even if that person was a friend of Lang Ya land spirit.
Mo Tan Sang arrived at the agreed location and found Fang Yuan, who had transformed into an immortal zombie the height of an ordinary person. His fangs had retracted inward, and aside from his dry skin, he appeared relatively normal.
Beside him was Tai Bai Yun Sheng, who had disguised himself as an extremely old man with a long beard reaching his chest. His appearance resembled that of a sage.
Fang Yuan greeted him.
"Friend Mo, the auction is about to begin. Why don't the three of us go together?"
Mo Tan Sang understood Fang Yuan's meaning and laughed loudly. "Brother is generous enough to invite me along, I must truly be fortunate."
Fang Yuan looked around, making no attempt to conceal the aura of his immortal killer move as he scanned the surroundings. Far away, two Gu Immortals immediately became tense.
"Divine Lord Tian Du, didn't you say this person was easy prey? Look, there are two Gu Immortals with him, and even that eccentric immortal zombie possesses Immortal Gu and immortal killer moves." The Gu Immortal beside Divine Lord Tian Du complained.
"Shi Hou, admit it, this was my mistake. Who would've thought there would be such a strange group? We should retreat. We can go to the ancient land and extort withered wood essence from Gu Ye instead." Divine Lord Tian Du laughed to ease the atmosphere before retreating together with Shi Hou.
Fang Yuan watched the two leave before setting off with Tai Bai Yun Sheng and Mo Tan Sang.
Crimson Reed Marsh was close to them. Along the way, the three encountered a large number of Gu Immortals. Rank six Gu Immortals were extremely common, and even rank sevens were not few in number.
The group arrived at Qin Bai Sheng's blessed land.
Qin Bai Sheng was standing there to receive the guests, and upon their arrival, he greeted them.
"Fellow immortals, welcome to my humble blessed land! These are the Gu worms for the auction. You may list your goods, whether they are beasts, immortal materials, Gu recipes, or any other items that Gu Immortals might desire! You may also choose your seats. There are private rooms and secret rooms, or you can sit among the audience in the open." Qin Bai Sheng did not pay them any particular attention. They were merely three rank six Gu Immortals among dozens of others.
Qin Bai Sheng was about to leave to welcome the other guests when Fang Yuan sent him a message, causing his expression to change for a moment before he clapped his hands happily.
"Hahaha, with brother attending, this auction will truly be something extraordinary!" Qin Bai Sheng patted Fang Yuan on the shoulder and addressed him as brother before even knowing his name.
This sudden change surprised Tai Bai Yun Sheng, and even Mo Tan Sang's expression changed.
Qin Bai Sheng's previous and current attitudes were completely different!
Two words could describe this scene: flexibility and shamelessness.
