Chapter 2349

"My intuition was right!" from the moment Fang Yuan achieved Great Grandmaster in Heaven Path he had a feeling that a danger of Heaven Path origins was targeting him.

At first, he assumed that it was related to some kind of tribulation that Heaven's Will was concocting against him.

But that didn't add up, first, because Heaven's Will cannot disobey the rules of the Heavenly Dao, meaning it could not send a tribulation that will certainly kill someone.

Second, because his next chaos tribulation was nearly 100 years away. There can be no tribulation at Rank 9 that exceeds the chaos tribulation.

His intuition told him it was something else.

When Reckless appeared in the Eastern Sea his intuition was flaring up, but this time it wasn't just his Heaven Path intuition but his Luck path and, Refinement path as well!

Luck Path could be explained by Refinement Path? Something was definitely fishy.

Fang Yuan of course prepped himself by setting up numerous formations and even the Space-Time Battlefield Killer Move, Space And Time Are Mine.

As Fang Yuan continued to split his attention between new Compound Killer moves and, using Immortal Killer Move --------- Stealing Heavenly Secrets.

But even after using numerous chances of natural inspiration, he was not able to determine what the threat was.

He only managed to figure out that this was not part of Heaven Will's plan.

His intuition suddenly flared at its highest right as Reckless Savage Crashed into his mountain.

It was then that he began to understand what was happening.

The man he saw in front of him was not the original Reckless Savage Demon Venerable, rather he seemed to have some connection to Heaven.

His guess was confirmed when his investigative killer move revealed the thread of Heaven Path Dao Marks constantly fueling this 'Reckless Savage'.

Fang Yuan was worried that this line of Heaven Path Dao Marks would allow Heaven to interact directly in their fight, so he activated the Battlefield Killer Move ----------- Space And Time Are Mine.

This cut the connection between Heaven and this 'Reckless'.

But the battle was far from easy as 'Reckless had been reborn for quite some time allowing him to draw quite a bit of Heaven Path Dao Marks into his body.

He played his cards very well, acting as if he had an unlimited amount of Immortal Essence and Dao Marks, using primarily Strength Path methods as they consumed far less Immortal Essence and finally, using Heaven Path's natural affinity towards all paths to make it seem like Reckless was still a transformation path expert and was only 'borrowing' the Heaven Path Dao Marks.

As they battled the fake Reckless began to show more and more signs that told Fang Yuan something was off.

As a Refinement Path Venerable, Fang Yuan was incredibly in tune with the various paths and Gus. One could say he was an expert in the use and creation of Killer Moves.

So, it was certainly shocking to see that 'Reckless' was using moves with completely no Gu aura.

Sure, once, or twice would not be anything special but for every move? Impossible.

Not to mention the speed at which he could activate these moves were not only too fast but also inconsistent and seemed almost as if he was pretending to need time to activate his Killer Moves.

It was then that Fang Yuan felt a feeling of resonance between himself and Reckless, or rather between his Immortal Fetus Gu and Reckless Savage's body.

With his various attainments and Wisdom path method, it was not difficult to deduce that this was a Gu Worm body just like his own.

He was able to deduce and isolate what path this Gu worm came from, and it was shockingly Heaven Path!

Although Fang Yuan had his guesses to see it be confirmed was another thing altogether.

This revelation made him more cautious, and he stopped holding back and enacted a failsafe plan he always had just in case someone ever managed to take the Sovereign Fetus Immortal Body, he had methods to restrain, harm, and if all else fails destroy it!

Fang Yuan had never cared about wealth, power, and status they were all a means to an end, immortality.

So, what if I was the richest Venerable, so what if I had a huge force of loyal servants, so what, does any of it matter if I one day I won't be here to enjoy it?

I will not falter from my path I will seek eternity and if I fall in the process I, Fang Yuan, have no regrets! For what other meaning can there be in life if all is temporary!

"Now I have some questions for you." Fang Yuan said as he approached Reputation Gu.

"Hmph I'm not going to talk, just kill me now."

"Kill? No no no, I won't kill you and you don't even have to talk, talking introduces lies, no I'll just take the answer for myself." Fang Yuan reached his hand out.

"W…w.what are you doing! Stop Stay back ARGH!!!" Reputation Gu screamed out in pain as Fang Yuan began to refine it!

"Stop please if you keep going I'll die."

Fang Yuan kept going.

"Don't you want to know why I'm here?"

Its plea fell upon deaf ears.

"If you refine me, you won't be able to get the answers you seek!" Reputation Gu shouted.

Fang Yuan halted.

"Speak."

"*Huff*" Reputation Gu was gasping for air, despite its apparent lack of mouth or lungs: "I *Huff* Have crucial information such as what I am, who I am, Why I'm here, and, most importantly Heaven's Will's plan!"

"In addition, I also possess knowledge of many of the secrets of the past."

"Hmm, you've caught my attention let's chat." Fang Yuan loosened the chains binding Reputation Gu and conjured up a table and chair that floated in the void.

He gestured toward Reputation Gu to sit.

Reputation Gu took the form of Reckless once again and obediently sat at the table.

"But first, Immortal Killer move ---------- Stealing The Essence Of Heaven And Earth!" The killer move struck the immobile Reputation Gu.

"Argh what was." Reputation Gu's face morphed in horror: "Stop! You promised you wouldn't refine me!"

Fang Yuan coldly glared: "Now I know you're not Reckless he would never beg for his life. First, I didn't promise that second you have no right to complain, and third, this killer move was one I developed to steal immortal Gu from others by inserting Refinement Path Dao Marks into an enemies Gu and refine it in secret, but I guess it works in this situation as well."

"Now talk before I completely refine you."

Reputation Gu was clearly unhappy, but it had no choice but to obey: "First, let me give you some ancient secrets, The Legends Of Ren Zu are all real!"

This fact was widely assumed by the Venerables, but some points were often a point of contention such as Gu talking, most believed that the Gus talking were just creative liberties added to drive the story.

But here Fang Yuan was talking to one of these mythical Gus.

"If the legends are real then why have Gus lost the ability to communicate with people?" Fang Yuan asked as he took out some tea to drink.

"Because Heaven's Will forbids it." Reputation Gu said as it looked at the cup of tea Fang Yuan was drinking.

Fang Yuan noticed its behavior: "Chang into your true form I find it very uncomfortable talking to Reckless Demon Savage."

Reputation Gu refused: "I need to use a Human form if not how would I sit at this table and talk with you?"

"Then change into a more pleasant form to converse with." Fang Yuan was getting really annoyed with this Gu but the secrets that it held were worth putting up with its nonsense.

Reputation Gu then shifted its form, a bright glow of light appeared the burly man figure of Reckless Savage slowly shrunk into the visage of a woman.

The woman had a sharp gaze that illuminated starlight and, her hair was long and silky resembling the Milky Way itself, her skin was flawless, and her face was immaculate with soft features and defining contours. Her aura was ethereal and holy seemingly untouchable as if she belongs among the stars; it was Star Constellation Immortal Venerable!

Fang Yuan had his eyes opened in shock! His mouth was ever so slightly agape.

Reputation Gu noticed this: "What I can only mimic forms that have made a significant impact in history leaving behind an illustrious reputation, also you told me to pick a form that was more pleasing so I chose a woman, finally because Star Constellation had infiltrated Heaven's Will her form is the one I am most close with I assure you no one in the 5 Regions would be able to tell the difference in appearance."

But that wasn't the part that shocked Fang Yuan, what shocked him was that she was sitting there completely naked!

Even Fang Yuan was momentarily stunned, after all, he was not a sage who had sworn off women, but he had always seen eternity as his goal before he pursued any relationship.

But seeing Star Constellation's bare body in front of him and, then hearing Reputation Gu add 'unable to tell the difference' It was no wonder that even Fang Yuan's hardened heart had trembled slightly.

In fact, it was very admirable of Fang Yuan, imagine that not only was an otherworldly beauty stark naked in front of you but that she was forced to listen to your every demand!

It was the ultimate temptation!

But Fang Yuan remained clear-headed and steered back onto the topic: "Put on some clothes and let's continue."

Reputation Gu clicked its tongue: "What is he some kind of sage? Is his lower half even working? How can he not be attracted to Star Constellation's form at all? When I showed it to Reckless Savage, he nearly died from nose bleeding alone!"

The more pressing matter at hand was that Fang Yuan was visibly upset if he knew the truth behind Reputation Gu's actions, he might just refine her instantly so she lied.

"I can't materialize clothes these chains are limiting my powers"

Fang Yuan was no idiot, he knew why she did what she did, but he didn't hold it against her as if their positions were reversed, he was shameless enough to probably do anything to live.

"Don't lie to me I won't hold this stunt against you but lie to me again and well" Fang Yuan's killer move began acting.

"Arggh okokokok I won't lie please stop." Reputation Gu cried out as she materialized a robe to cover herself.

"That's better now my first question." Fang Yuan began grilling Reputation Gu: "What do you mean Heaven's will doesn't allow Gu to communicate with people anymore?"
