RI - Side story 1

[This story is dropped as of now.]

[There are currently 2 other fan-fics in this book itself later on. 1-Fang Zheng Survival (vol 3-4) and 2-My life as Fang Yuan (vol 5). Feel free to directly skip to any of them.]

Great Love Immortal Venerable, or better known as Heaven Refining Demon Venerable had done what shouldn't be done.

Nothing goes as planned in the Gu world. Despite being a venerable and having an absolute advantage, Fang Yuan still wasn't able to find a way to achieve immortality.

He was in the middle of refining Heaven and Earth to create Rank 10 Eternal Life gu. The whole of Gu worlds Dao marks had been refined by him already and the whole of Grand Dao was under his control.

No one could have possibly interfered with his plans but there was one element which did the unthinkable.

Heaven's Will self destroyed it's last remaining consciousness at the most critical moment of the refinement. It caused a tiny hole in the membrane which protected the Gu world from Chaos.

The chaos flooded in fast destroying each and everything in its path. The people were dying everywhere and the landscape which had been developed over millions of years were being destroyed within a second.

Fang Yuan knew this was the end for this world.

There was only one way out for him. Finishing the Gu refinement. But creating Eternal Life Gu was impossible since many important components had been destroyed by Chaos.

The black fire continued spreading towards Fang Yuan threatening to devour everything.

Fang Yuan sighed. Although, this was something which he had not planned for, it was not something he couldn't resolve. Afterall, he was a supreme grandmaster in almost all the paths that existed.

He sighed because the best solution he came up with required him to sacrifice everything just so that he could preserve his life.

It was to refine Rank 10 Reincarnation Gu.

Yes, he figured out the secret behind his reincarnation. Rank 10 Reincarnation Gu was just an upgrade Rank 9 Space Escape Gu and Rank 9 Fate Gu.

Ever since the Fate war, the Rank 9 Fate gu ceased existing and Fate was controlled by each and every person themselves.

But as stated in <>, there's always a way out. Human path is always about progressing and going against the heaven to defy their fate.

Light shone in the eyes of Fang Yuan.

"Since Fate Gu is not available, I will naturally have to find a substitute and what better substitute than my own body, my own fate.", A smile appeared on Fang Yuan's face.

Sacrificing his own fate, he will return to being an ordinary person. He may never even find a chance to achieve his goals.

But journey was more important than the end goals. Fang Yuan started refining his Sovereign Immortal body along with Rank 9 Space Escape Gu. He used the Rank 9 Fire gu to meld both the Gu together. While resisting the chaos with just his bare soul, and refining a rank 9 gu for a few hours, it was really difficult for Fang Yuan to continue.

However, while bearing unimaginable pain from the depts of his soul, he finally succeeded in refining Rank 10 Reincarnation Gu.

"Goodbye Gu world."

Fang Yuan closed his eyes as he activated the first Rank 10 Gu with whole of Gu world's primeval essense.

The Gu shown brightly even throwing the chaos back. The white light suddenly expanded focusing on Fang Yuan and a few moments later, Fang Yuan disappeared.

The chaos quickly started consuming the rest of the world. Countless screams and painful cries were simultaneously being played out in all the 5 regions. But no one, not even a single soul would survive to see the next day.

Even River of time and Door of Life and Death had been destroyed. The Grand Dao of the gu world was slowly being consumed by the chaos.

That day, with 8 hours 22 minutes 13 seconds, after Heaven's Will destroyed itself, the Gu world existence was erased forever!
