"To think that Heavenly Court will arrange us to be here."
"Hmph, where else do you want to be? Inside Heavenly Court?"
"Everyone, it is too late to turn back now. Now that we have joined Heavenly Court, we have no alternative but to obey them. Having internal strife now is very stupid."
The leaders of the various grotto-heavens like Old Immortal Hua Yu, Liang Jing Jing, and Granny Skeleton gathered together.
Some of their expressions were quite unsightly.
After joining Heavenly Court, even though their grotto-heavens had devoured immemorial nine heavens fragments before, Heavenly Court still had an effective immortal aperture relocation method to use.
But these grotto-heavens suffered immense losses after a forceful relocation.
Furthermore, most of them were now gathered in the two heavens above Central Continent. According to Heavenly Court, their grotto-heavens were arranged in accordance with the star array calculation formation below, they were all treated as formation cores!
"Everyone, have you been well?" Qin Ding Ling smiled and flew towards them.
The Grotto Lords were all expressionless, most of them were even snorting coldly, in the end, Old Immortal Hua Yu and Liang Jing Jing were the ones to greet her.
Qin Ding Ling understood the reason behind the emotions of these rank eight Gu Immortals.
After these people joined Heavenly Court, not only did their grotto-heavens suffer great losses, they were even used by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable as the cores of her star array calculation formation.
This meant that if the three venerables fought in the future, when they try to break into the formation, these grotto-heavens would be at the forefront to deal with such attacks, they could become sacrificial pieces if they were careless.
Qin Ding Ling smiled as she spoke to Old Immortal Hua Yu and Liang Jing Jing, afterwards, her tone turned cold as she chided the rest: "We've already explained it to you. Heavenly Court's righteousness comes at a price, if not for the fact that we removed your grotto-heavens from the heaven vein nodes, will your homelands still exist now?"
The other immortals' expressions changed.
Qin Ding Ling had not shown such an attitude when she went to recruit them back then.
But now that she showed her true colors, the Grotto Lords had no choice but to endure it.
As subordinates, they had no choice but to give in now!
Especially for the first batch of Gu Immortals like Granny Skeleton, their grotto-heavens were situated in immemorial black heaven, they were forced by the circumstances to join Heavenly Court like Old Immortal Hua Yu and the rest.
Right now, it seemed that the other variant human grotto-heavens were still left in the immemorial two heavens, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable only destroyed the grotto-heavens in white heaven, he did not do anything to those in black heaven.
Granny Skeleton and others felt very regretful, but at this point, what could they do?
After scolding these Grotto Lords, Qin Ding Ling saw that their expressions became more respectful, she snorted coldly: "It seems that you've already woken up, now, come with me to meet Lady Star Constellation Immortal Venerable."
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was not in Heavenly Court now.
She refined Heavenly Court's wisdom path dao marks and activated wisdom path methods to conceal the derivation formation, afterwards, she left to refine the natural wisdom path dao marks of Central Continent.
But because of a shortage of immortal essence, and because her immortal aperture could not produce enough essence to keep up with the expenditure, she helped the Central Continent immortals with the arrangement of the star array calculation formation while resting.
Under the lead of Qin Ding Ling, the two heavens' Grotto Lords met with Star Constellation Immortal Venerable in the sky above Central Continent.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was currently inside Embroidered Tower, she used dao embroidery personally to weave wisdom path and star path dao marks in the surrounding ten thousand li, creating a beautiful work of art.
After the fate war, Reckless Savage Demon Venerable's method was obtained by Fang Yuan. After Star Constellation Immortal Venerable revived, she quickly modified and changed Embroidered Tower.
Right now, not only was Embroidered Tower complete, it also became more profound and powerful.
After personally seeing Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's incredible method, the Grotto Lords were deeply shaken, they paid their respects.
Seeing them kneel in midair, the Gu Immortals of Central Continent's ten great ancient sects who were setting up the formation became very enthusiastic and motivated.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable gave them a light gaze, she sensed their complex emotions, there was unease among most of them, some also felt angry and indignant about their predicament.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable consoled them expressionlessly: "Friends, you are all humans, having been freed from the demonic grasp of Eastern Sea, it is a great victory for humanity. Ever since ancient times, Heavenly Court has been the sacred land of humanity, it is the greatest homeland of everyone. No matter what your ancestors did that caused them to hide in the immemorial two heavens, Heavenly Court will not hold you accountable, let the past remain in the past."
"Don't worry, Heavenly Court treats everyone equally, whoever makes contributions will be fairly rewarded by Heavenly Court. In the future, your glory of having joined Heavenly Court will also be passed on to your descendants."
Old Immortal Hua Yu and the rest were still kneeling, after hearing her words, they expressed their gratitude and praised Heavenly Court's righteousness, they declared their loyalty and confidence in Heavenly Court.
Eastern Sea.
Fang Yuan looked at the rank nine Immortal Gu recipe of heavenly secret Gu as he let out a breath of turbid air.
This Immortal Gu recipe was very different from before.
Originally, the rank nine Immortal Gu recipe of Heavenly Secret came from the truthful floating ice, it was part of Limitless Demon Venerable's foundation, he had obtained it from digesting the chaos outside the world.
That was to say, within the Heavenly Dao of this Gu world, there was no rank nine heavenly secret Gu.
In order to pursue eternal life, Limitless Demon Venerable digested the chaos and gained many results that surpassed the current Heavenly Dao. Rank nine heavenly secret Immortal Gu was one of his gains.
This was a great achievement indeed, but there was still room for improvement.
After all, Limitless Demon Venerable died long ago, even though he revived earlier, he was not a refinement path venerable.
In terms of refinement path, Fang Yuan was the number one person throughout history, none of the venerables could match him.
Thus, using his own refinement path attainment, Fang Yuan modified this Immortal Gu recipe to a higher level, it was truly exemplary beyond the limit of the world!
Right now, Fang Yuan had a clear understanding of Heavenly Secret.
This was in essence a heaven path Gu worm, but Fang Yuan had once thought it was wisdom path.
This Immortal Gu was created by Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable, at that time, he already possessed heaven path attainment.
Afterwards, heavenly secret Immortal Gu was refined by Spectral Soul Demon Venerable's split soul, Old Man Yan Shi, it was destroyed on Yi Tian Mountain.
Now, heavenly secret Immortal Gu was refined and owned by Fang Yuan, he had refined it using the refinement path killer move heavenly light ring.
By activating heavenly secret Immortal Gu, one could peek into the intention of heaven's will, it could allow the Gu Immortal to get an answer from heaven and earth. There were no events in the world that heaven and earth did not know of. It was as the saying goes, except you and me, only heaven and earth know. It could expose the secrets of heaven and earth, even if the Gu Immortal did not have any evidences or clues, it could directly lead them to the truth.
But Heavenly Secret had a weakness when using it.
Out of ten activations, at least eight would fail. Once the activation fails, the user would suffer a backlash of ten to seventy years of lifespan.
This weakness was actually created because people did not understand the true essence of heavenly secret Gu.
Heavenly secret Gu was a heaven path Immortal Gu, a heaven path cultivator needed enough heaven path dao marks to be able to activate it normally.
When activating heavenly secret Gu, not only was immortal essence needed, one also had to expend heaven path immortal materials.
This was like Fang Yuan's obscured heavenly secret.
Without using heaven path immortal materials, heavenly secret Gu could still be activated successfully, but the price was that the amount of heaven path immortal materials needed for the next activation would be much higher.
This was why backlashes occurred that took the Gu cultivator's lifespan.
Lifespan Gu was a heaven path Gu worm, the lifespan of Gu cultivators were actually heaven path dao marks.
Looking back at it, Old Man Yan Shi did not truly understand heavenly secret Gu.
But this was a normal thing, paths developed over time, the essence of Gu worms was also explored and understood when using them.
Understanding something required a process that took time.
"With this Immortal Gu recipe, I can now advance my heavenly secret Gu."
Fang Yuan did not lack heaven path immortal materials.
This was due to the unprecedented appearance of abundant heaven path immortal materials when the two heavens fused together.
Shen Shang, who was in charge of collecting heaven path immortal materials, worked very hard.
Earlier, because Fang Yuan wanted his human path cultivation gains but he only gave a portion of it, he felt very uneasy. For the sake of his clan and himself, he had to work very hard as compensation.
"As long as I refine rank nine heavenly secret Gu, the power of obscured heavenly secret will rise sharply, the two venerables will continue to be deceived."
"But before that, I need to make another declaration."
Almost all the human grotto-heavens in the two heavens had joined Heavenly Court, while the variant human grotto-heavens that remained in immemorial white heaven were wiped out by Spectral Soul Demon Venerable.
Regarding this, Fang Yuan had to express himself.
"Fellow cultivators from the five regions and two heavens, I am Great Love Immortal Venerable!"
"Firstly, I want to give my blessings to the human immortals who joined Heavenly Court. Rest assured, I will not pursue the matter. How can I, Great Love Immortal Venerable, do something so petty?"
"Regarding the destruction of the grotto-heavens in immemorial white heaven, I am deeply sorry."
"Not long ago, I was hit by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's scheme and could not go to deal with Spectral Soul Demon Venerable personally."
"I have already sent my people to arrange for the retreat of grotto-heavens."
"No matter what, I believe firmly that this world needs love and peace, war is something that harms all of us. Be it humans or variant humans, or even all life in the world. Why can't we all live in peace?"
"Because of my beliefs, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable entrusted his inheritance to me. With such an aspiration, the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance was established."
"It is not a super force meant for world domination, it is the homeland of everyone, it is an attempt at peace for everyone in this world."
"Because of the actions of the two heavens' grotto-heavens, I reflected upon myself."
"I know that I was wrong, I was too restricted by traditions and the mindset passed down in history."
"Thus, I have decided!"
"From today onwards, the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance is open to everyone, I will abolish all restrictive agreements, everyone is free to join and leave at any time. I, Great Love Immortal Venerable, make this declaration here and now to heaven and earth, I will not pursue the matter if you leave."
"Even if you do not join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance, I will still refine Gu for you, transactions will be done fairly."
"Members who join my Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance will receive a twenty percent discount for Gu refinement requests!"
"That's right, twenty percent, a full twenty percent discount, you heard it from me personally!"
"As for how to join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance?"
"Very simple."
"You just need to pay a membership fee."
"In fact, even the fee that you pay will be converted into contribution points in the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance, in the future when you request to refine Gu, you can use these contribution points in place of Gu refinement materials!"
"Oh Liang Jing Jing, I did not take your light heaven out of greed. I have already converted it into contribution points for you."
"To the human Gu Immortals who have decided to join Heavenly Court instead, I wish you well, you are welcome to join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance anytime you want."
"I will not mind your status at all."
"Remember, the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance promotes freedom, fairness, and peace!"
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable: "..."
The two heaven's human Gu Immortals: "..."
Treasure yellow heaven: "..."
-x-X-x-
In the sky above Central Continent, the boundless star array calculation formation could be seen in its initial form.
A large number of Central Continent Gu Immortals were moving around rapidly.
"Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance..." Xiao Suan Zi set up the formation while muttering to himself, thinking hard about the situation.
"Sister Bai Qing, do you think we can join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance?" Not far away, Rainbow Butterfly Immortal Concubine Han Cai Xin transmitted and asked.
Fairy Bai Qing wore a white gown with a green belt around the waist, she smiled plainly upon hearing this: "Cai Xin, are you interested?"
"How can I not be? A total of twenty percent discount with no restrictions on entering or leaving the alliance, this is such a huge bargain. If I am not from Spirit Butterfly Valley, I will have joined already. Sister, aren't you moved?" Han Cai Xin asked.
Han Cai Xin had colorful butterflies flying around her as she placed many Gu worms at their designated locations.
Fairy Bai Qing pondered to herself.
Although she was a Gu Immortal of Spirit Affinity House, she had a close relationship with Han Cai Xin, they called each other sisters in private.
She knew the intention behind Han Cai Xin's question, it was because Fairy Bai Qing's daughter was Feng Jin Huang, she was close to Heavenly Court as a result.
But Fairy Bai Qing shook her head: "I can't be certain about this, maybe we can ask Friend He Feng Yang."
In the past, Fairy Bai Qing might state her own opinion, but after Fairy Zi Wei and Feng Jiu Ge's betrayal, Fairy Bai Qing started to act with caution.
"Little Nine, get to work. After arranging this star path Immortal Gu, we will retreat immediately." Far away, He Feng Yang secretly transmitted to the nine palace crane.
He had had enough!
After Fang Yuan's second declaration, everyone knew of the great advantage of joining the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance, most importantly, they could leave at will and there were no restrictions at all.
He Feng Yang became the target of everyone's inquiry as they assessed him closely.
He Feng Yang was instructed by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable to openly hold an Immortal Gu transaction with Fang Yuan.
Forget about what the Heavenly Court members thought of it, currently, the Central Continent's ten great ancient sects' Gu Immortals were all moved.
Who did not lack Immortal Gu?
Especially after the five regions became one and the regional walls vanished, qi tides swept the world while heaven veins and earth veins merged, all sorts of immortal materials appeared like a pouring foundation. Among them, earth path, qi tide, and heaven path were most abundant.
The Gu Immortals had a lot of immortal materials, the transactions in treasure yellow heaven also increased in frequency, but Gu Immortals still had few Immortal Gu.
Everyone was specialized in one field, if one was not a refinement path Gu Immortal, their success rate of refining Immortal Gu was just too low.
From ancient times until now, after three million years of human domination, the pain of Gu refinement had never been lifted, countless heroes and geniuses had sank into this bottomless pit of agony throughout their lives.
Only several refinement path great experts could achieve great success, but their radiance could not reach everyone.
Most Gu Immortals were disheartened by their Gu refinement attempts, but they still had to continue trying regardless.
It was a painful but helpless process.
Now, there was a refinement path venerable, he was not like any other Gu Immortal as well.
He was very special.
He created the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance and publicly held transactions in treasure yellow heaven to refine Immortal Gu for others!
This made all the Gu Immortals who were drowning in despair feel hopeful, this was a type of warmth that entered their hearts.
Most Gu Immortals were moved.
No matter how hypocritical Fang Yuan's Great Love declaration was, the benefits were still presented before everyone.
But the status of the Central Continent's ten great ancient sects became their restriction.
These Gu Immortals were mindful of Heavenly Court's attitude.
Thus, they all looked towards He Feng Yang as an indicator.
He was the first person in Central Continent's righteous path to make a transaction with Fang Yuan openly, rumors said that this was due to the orders of Star Constellation Immortal Venerable!
He Feng Yang had received Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's orders, but how could he tell them?
Some things were allowed under the table, but they could not be spoken about. Once these things were exposed, the meaning would change.
Thus, He Feng Yang had to keep a tight lip.
But the more vague he spoke, the more others wanted to know.
For example, Vicious Lightning Fiend came to ask him personally.
Vicious Lightning Fiend had rank seven cultivation level and was a famous expert. Compared to him, He Feng Yang was just a tiny character, but now, because of his transaction with Fang Yuan, He Feng Yang became renowned in Central Continent, everyone paid attention to him.
Towards Vicious Lightning Fiend, He Feng Yang had to lower his head.
Although he spoke vaguely and hinted about the situation, Vicious Lightning Fiend wanted a definitive answer.
He Feng Yang faced immense pressure.
But right at this time, another Gu Immortal approached him.
It was Immortal Monkey King Shi Lei.
This expert had been rank seven for a long time, it was rumored that he was trying to reach rank eight now.
When Feng Jiu Ge was still part of Central Continent's righteous path, Immortal Monkey King Shi Lei was merely below him.
"Brother He Feng Yang, tell me straightforwardly, can we or can we not do it?!" Shi Lei asked openly.
With this question, He Feng Yang's pressure became even heavier.
Fairy Bai Qing and Rainbow Butterfly Immortal Concubine also asked him.
"Fairies, I don't know either." He Feng Yang was having a terrible headache.
"Brother He Feng Yang, try asking them." Vicious Lightning Fiend said.
He Feng Yang was near the point of tears: "Brother, please understand, I am just a helpless subordinate."
Vicious Lightning Fiend chuckled: "You've known Fang Yuan for a long time, your relationship is not normal, how can I not know that?"
He Feng Yang felt extremely grieved, he almost wanted to scream: "I am really not close to this demon!"
He Feng Yang was still trying to find excuses to reply to Vicious Lightning Fiend without offending him when suddenly, Shi Lei directly suggested: "I have a good idea, brother, join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance now, I'm sure Star Constellation Immortal Venerable will not punish you."
He Feng Yang's eyes rolled white as he felt like he would rather pass out.
While He Feng Yang was in a tight spot, Liang Jing Jing was also facing a tough predicament.
Her divine sense had already entered treasure yellow heaven to communicate with Fang Yuan's will.
After knowing that light heaven was converted into a large sum of contribution points in the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance, she felt conflicted.
She felt terrible!
This was a huge sum of contribution points, it would hurt her too much to give up on them.
Liang Jing Jing still had two Gu Immortals with her, because Flickering Light grotto-heaven was destroyed, in this situation, she needed cultivation resources badly.
But Heavenly Court would not help her for no reason.
She had to make good use of every cultivation resource, starting all over again.
Thus, the contribution points from giving up light heaven became her greatest temptation.
Liang Jing Jing was not afraid that Fang Yuan would go back on his words.
After all, he had made a public declaration. If Liang Jing Jing decided to join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance again, Fang Yuan would definitely assure her safety in order to show the world that he was serious.
Liang Jing Jing was afraid of Heavenly Court and the other Gu Immortals in the world.
She had just betrayed Fang Yuan to join Heavenly Court, if she joined the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance again at this time, how would Heavenly Court feel? How would the entire world feel about it?
At this moment, Liang Jing Jing could not deny that she was feeling regretful.
Of course, her hatred and anger towards Fang Yuan was still dominant and had not wavered.
Inside the sovereign immortal aperture.
Fang Yuan started to officially refine heavenly secret Gu!
This was his third rank nine Immortal Gu, Fang Yuan was very confident in this Gu refinement attempt compared to the previous two.
Because for this Gu refinement session, he had made the most extensive preparation possible.
While refining Gu, Fang Yuan considered the big picture.
Now that he reduced the criteria for joining the alliance, a huge commotion was caused, the influence would only become deeper later on.
"Lord Great Love Immortal Venerable, I am Shang Tao Fan, may I join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance?" A Southern Border Gu Immortal contacted Fang Yuan's will in treasure yellow heaven.
Actually, by now, many Gu Immortals had already contacted Fang Yuan's will, but this was the first person that stated his intention to join.
"You can join after paying a membership fee." Fang Yuan's will replied plainly.
A single person's membership fee and a super force's membership fee was different.
Shang Tao Fan asked: "Can I join secretly?"
Fang Yuan's will nodded in agreement.
"Then I will join the alliance." Shang Tao Fan replied immediately, he made arrangements with Fang Yuan's will on where and when to transact the resource point.
Indeed, the membership fees for joining the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance were resource points.
"Shang Tao Fan is a peripheral member of Shang clan, but this time, he was sent by Shang clan as a representative to join my Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance."
Fang Yuan instantly understood that this was Shang clan's move.
The resource point that he requested for was beyond Shang Tao Fan's personal capabilities. But during the talk, he agreed upon it immediately, it was evident that Shang clan was backing him in this.
"Although Shang clan does not have Wu clan's resolve, they are capable of seeing the big picture regardless."
Fang Yuan smiled.
This was just the start.
Soon, with Fang clan's agitation and Wu clan's lead, more and more super forces would try their luck.
These super forces would likely behave like Shang clan by first sending one member over to make use of the benefits of being a member of the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance.
But this was all within Fang Yuan's plan.
By giving them some benefits first, when these super forces are no longer to live without him, Fang Yuan would start to restrict the number of Immortal Gu each person could request to refine.
Afterwards, these super forces would send even more Gu Immortals to join him, they might even come to him as a whole!
Of course, Fang Yuan would not restrict them, if they wanted to leave the alliance, they could do so at any time!
While refining the Immortal Gu, Fang Yuan used information path methods to contact Star Constellation Immortal Venerable.
"Star Constellation Immortal Venerable, have you been well?" Fang Yuan greeted with a warm attitude.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable quickly replied: "I've been well, but some accusations came towards me from nowhere, Friend Great Love, do you have anything to tell me regarding this?"
Fang Yuan laughed heartily: "To speak the truth, Lady Star Constellation Immortal Venerable, I am here to lend you a hand. I've heard that you are undergoing a huge project recently to create a super immortal formation that covers the entire area of Central Continent."
"To make such a huge formation, you will need many Immortal Gu. And I, Great Love Immortal Venerable, happen to be specialized in this aspect."
"Why don't you join my Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance, you will enjoy a twenty percent discount, that will save you a huge sum."
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable laughed.
She was laughing from anger.
-x-X-x-
Regarding Fang Yuan's shamelessness, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable could only stare in amazement.
She had no choice but to admit that Fang Yuan's second declaration was a brilliant move that dealt with the situation effectively.
Fang Yuan lowered the entry and exit criteria for the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance, he did not consider the loyalty of these members, creating a whole new commotion!
Using benefits to lure them, he displayed the advantage of refinement path, this was something that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable could not match, they had no way of stopping him.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was certain: Right now, all the Gu Immortals in the world were greatly moved, even the Gu Immortals of Central Continent's ten great ancient sects were thinking of whether they could join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance now!
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable could restrain them and not let them join the alliance, but she could not stop them from thinking!
Human minds were fickle!
And in this entire fiasco, what did Fang Yuan lose?
Basically nothing.
In the first place, he had taken in subordinates from Eastern Sea and the two heavens, they had no loyalty towards him.
They had to join him because of the situation, it was not of their own will.
It was unrealistic for Fang Yuan to depend on them if he wanted to attack Central Continent or the other regions. From Qin Ding Ling's success in making these grotto-heaven forces betray him, it showed that none of them had any loyalty to him.
If there was only one venerable in the current world, everyone would be completely at his beck and call. But with the era of four concurrent venerables, as well as the contest of three venerables, these Gu Immortals were able to make a choice.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable snorted coldly.
She knew that Fang Yuan contacted her not to show off or brag about his move.
Fang Yuan's suggestion for Star Constellation Immortal Venerable to join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance was a joke. He knew that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable would not join the alliance and raise his prestige.
Fang Yuan's true goal was to threaten her.
Currently, Central Continent was assembling a formation of an unprecedented scale.
At this crucial moment, if Great Love Immortal Venerable or Giant Sun Immortal Venerable made their move, it could easily cause the formation to crumble and fail.
"Fang Yuan has little immortal essence, he does not want to come to destroy my star array calculation formation, but he does not want me to succeed either, thus, he contacted me."
Fang Yuan had always been showing an anxious attitude, he used various Immortal Gu to exchange for resource points, it seemed like he was trying to raise the foundation of his immortal aperture to increase his immortal essence production.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable made many investigation attempts but similar to Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, they could not see the truth that Fang Yuan was concealing.
Thus, all along, she felt that Fang Yuan lacked immortal essence.
This was a deep impression that he imprinted in her.
She was not surprised that Fang Yuan contacted her.
Immediately, she agreed to have a transaction with Fang Yuan, Heavenly Court would pay resource points, Primordial Domain, and immortal materials in exchange for Fang Yuan's refinement of Immortal Gu for them.
The transaction was of a huge scale, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable even emphasized that the transactions would be done in batches, this entire duration would be quite lengthy.
Fang Yuan knew that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was doing this to ensure her formation's safety.
This was something Fang Yuan had expected.
According to the arrangement of this incomplete formation, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was not making an exceptional formation, it was within Fang Yuan's tolerance level.
Fang Yuan gave up on destroying it to obtain a beneficial transaction, this was an assured gain for him.
Especially when he was refining heavenly secret Gu now!
At this juncture, Fang Yuan could not attack abruptly.
But Star Constellation Immortal Venerable did not know this.
It was even quite a surprise that she was willing to use Primordial Domain as one of the transaction goods.
Before this, Fang Yuan had always been negotiating with Heavenly Court to buy their Primordial Domain.
a portion of the Primordial Domain now will not allow me to gain any advantage in a short period of 21:32
time."
The Primordial Domain had much greater value to him than Star Constellation Immortal Venerable or Giant Sun Immortal Venerable.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable had never agreed to it, but now, she was willing to give up some of the Primordial Domain to lure Fang Yuan into accepting the transaction.
"It is likely that from Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's perspective, I have not taken the Primordial Domain in treasure yellow heaven because I lack methods to retrieve it. Thus, giving me a portion of the Primordial Domain now will not allow me to gain any advantage in a short period of time."
"To think that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable will be the first person to sell me Primordial Domain, I thought that I would have gotten it first through a blood path transaction with Giant Sun Immortal Venerable!"
While thinking of this, Fang Yuan multi-tasked and contacted Giant Sun Immortal Venerable: "Giant Sun, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable has made such a huge move, the formation she is setting up must be quite important. She is the number one wisdom path cultivator throughout history, with this formation's help, she will be able to scheme in the future without us even knowing it."
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable laughed and quickly replied: "So what do you want to do?"
Fang Yuan said directly: "I am willing to collaborate with you to deal with Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and destroy her formation! Wisdom path is not simple, we saw its power in Crazed Demon Cave. We really should not let her create this immortal formation."
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable gave an ambiguous answer: "That is a good suggestion, so, Great Love, have you considered Heavenly Lord Bai Zu's suggestion already?"
Fang Yuan chuckled: "We can always talk about it. I have a lot of blood path research results and also blood path Immortal Gu."
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had always wanted to buy Fang Yuan's blood path resources, now that Fang Yuan gave in, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable smiled and immediately contacted Star Constellation Immortal Venerable.
"Heaven Refining Demon Venerable just contacted me, he wants us to attack your formation together. What do you think about that?" Giant Sun Immortal Venerable immediately exposed Fang Yuan.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable snorted coldly to herself, she used a similar method to make a transaction with Giant Sun Immortal Venerable.
The three venerables continued to negotiate and plot against each other.
As a wisdom path Gu cultivator, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was superior to the others, she vaguely held the upper hand.
Eventually, she gave up some benefits to temporarily appease Fang Yuan and Giant Sun.
"I finally stabilized these two, but if the formation I am making is any stronger, this situation will be harder to deal with."
It was not that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable lacked a better formation, but she could not create it now.
If she tried, the two venerables would try to destroy it.
There would be no way of talking them out of it.
Star array calculation formation was specially chosen by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable as it did not cross their limits. The two venerables were willing to let her create it in exchange for some personal benefits.
This was the precise control of the situation that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable had in this contest of three venerables.
"Of course, the most important thing is still Spectral Soul Demon Venerable." Star Constellation Immortal Venerable thought to herself: "The reason why both venerables are willing to watch on the fence is primarily because of Spectral Soul Demon Venerable."
Compared to Spectral Soul Demon Venerable, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's formation was nothing outstanding!
The three venerables were paying close attention to Spectral Soul Demon Venerable's actions.
Like what they expected, after getting rid of the white heaven grotto-heavens that Spectral Soul Demon Venerable could sense, he went after the sun!
Within the fused two heavens, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable charged towards the sun like a mountain-like shadowy figure.
This scene was seen through Fang Yuan's investigative method, he pondered: "Back then, I used up white heaven's heavenly spirit, causing Spectral Soul Demon Venerable to be unable to control immemorial white heaven directly. He has only devoured black heaven's heavenly spirit, so he can only devour immemorial white heaven through it all being engulfed by immemorial black heaven!"
"Right now, among the two heavens' grotto-heavens, those from white heaven are basically all destroyed. The heaven vein nodes that are contained within these grotto-heavens have all been destroyed by Spectral Soul Demon Venerable."
"As for Longevity Heaven and Heavenly Court, they have tight defenses that prevent Spectral Soul Demon Venerable from detecting them in his current state."
"Thus, his only target now is the sun!"
Spectral Soul Demon Venerable charged towards the sun, but this attempt was different from before, he shouted and roared with unprecedented determination and killing intent.
However, the closer he got to the sun, the more obstruction he felt from the massive number of fire path and light path dao marks.
Spectral Soul Demon Venerable's body started to melt like a candle, tiny flames could be seen appearing on his entire body.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable looked at the immemorial two heavens while paying close attention to this situation, he evaluated internally: "The sun has existed since immemorial times, it has vast and boundless power. It is the largest heaven vein node in the entire world, it is also the greatest light vein and fire vein node in the two heavens."
"Even in my previous life, when I was at my strongest, I could not deal with the sun easily. Now that Spectral Soul Demon Venerable has lost his mind, it will be even harder for him to deal with it."
When Giant Sun Immortal Venerable was alive back then, he was invincible in the world, he could naturally destroy the sun.
But doing that had no advantage to him, it was even very harmful to the living beings of the world.
Thus, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable did not do that.
Eventually, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable charged into the sun, countless black pillar-like arms stretched out and grabbed at it, his colossal body slammed into the sun and caused flames to flicker.
At the same time, he suffered severe injuries.
His body melted rapidly as a vast number of light path and fire path dao marks were carved on him.
All of his accumulated soul path dao marks were rapidly breaking apart!
Spectral Soul Demon Venerable's three heads were screaming out in pain, his eyes became filled with anger and hatred.
Following his instincts, he activated a defensive killer move, a layer of eerie light covered his whole body, black smoke gushed out fiercely and resisted the immense power of the sun.
Spectral Soul Demon Venerable managed to control the situation for now.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable stayed in Embroidered Tower as she looked out of the window.
"The sun is a congregation of heaven path, light path, and fire path dao marks, it is tangible but not solid. It can be seen as a tribulation that has been ongoing for countless years, it had started accumulating since the start of the world. Thus, even though it is not a chaotic disaster, it is hard to deal with even for a venerable."
"By attacking the sun, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable will likely end up in a bad state alongside it. By then, it will be time to make my move."
"If I can eliminate Spectral Soul Demon Venerable, it will benefit Heavenly Court greatly. By then, I can even give in to the other two venerables to a greater extent."
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable understood when to yield and when not to.
For Heavenly Court, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable was a huge threat.
Because Heavenly Court was situated in immemorial white heaven, it was the largest heaven vein node in the world.
It was just that Heavenly Court was concealed by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's wisdom path methods, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable could not detect it.
But right at this moment, there was an abrupt change!
A hill-like beast escaped in fear while carrying a trace of the aura of a rank nine Immortal Gu.
"There is actually a legendary immemorial desolate beast hiding inside the sun? It has a rank nine Immortal Gu?" Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was shook.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's eyes widened: "No, not just one rank nine Immortal Gu, it has another one!"
The three venerables observed closely, the wild rank nine fire Gu within the sun was no longer concealed.
After a few breaths of time, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable arrived at the center of the sun, the remaining tens of arms stretched out and grabbed fire Gu despite the intense flames.
Spectral Soul Demon Venerable's left head opened its mouth and instantly devoured fire Gu.
Spectral Soul Demon Venerable cried out in agony.
His left head was burning like a flame pillar.
Without the support of the two Gu, the sun exploded with a loud sound that spread throughout the entire world.
At this moment, all lifeforms in the world looked up, they had fearful expressions as they witnessed the sun turning into countless lumps of light and fire, breaking up and spreading throughout heaven and earth.
The sun — was destroyed!
-x-X-x-
This change had occurred too quickly.
Even the three venerables could not take action in time.
Their original plan was to wait for Spectral Soul Demon Venerable to go down with the sun, until they were both greatly weakened. Because Spectral Soul Demon Venerable was following his instincts now, he would also want to survive naturally. Thus, if he got badly injured, he would escape.
At this time, the three venerables would target the greatly weakened Spectral Soul Demon Venerable.
In the contest of three venerables, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable was a huge uncertainty. There was still a chance of him regaining his sanity, thus, the three venerables were in agreement that this uncertainty should be killed first.
Like during the battle in Crazed Demon Cave, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable decided to cooperate to kill all the pseudo venerables first.
But out of their expectations, the sun actually exploded first.
Different from what everyone thought, the sun actually contained two rank nine Immortal Gu and one mysterious legendary immemorial desolate beast.
The sun's foundation far exceeded their expectations.
With this foundation and the fact that Spectral Soul Demon Venerable was not sane, it should be very hard to deal with, he would be the one to escape first.
But the issue was that the legendary immemorial desolate beast that hid inside the sun got shocked and escaped.
Not only did it run away, it even brought a rank nine Immortal Gu with it.
Once this Immortal Gu was taken, the sun lacked a core and its stable condition quickly destabilized spontaneous.
"No matter how strong a Gu house is, it can still be easily broken from the inside." Star Constellation Immortal Venerable sighed as she thought of a logic in the Gu world.
This abrupt change disrupted her plan.
Among the three venerables, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was the one who wanted to kill Spectral Soul Demon Venerable the most.
Because she understood the threat that he held towards Heavenly Court!
Originally, she wanted to give in and accept some losses to lure the other two venerables into attacking Spectral Soul Demon Venerable and killing him. But to think that this happened.
Fire Gu was a legendary Immortal Gu recorded in <
Forget about that for now, but the mysterious legendary immemorial desolate beast also brought away a rank nine Immortal Gu.
It had to be pursued.
A rank nine Immortal Gu was concerned, while a legendary immemorial beast was not hard to deal with for a venerable.
Because it was too easy to succeed, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable had to race against time now.
There were three venerables in the world, she did not want the Immortal Gu to end up with the other venerables.
"Be careful, fire is raining down like a storm." Fairy Bai Qing was the first to alert the others.
"Oh no, what do we do?" Rainbow Butterfly Immortal Concubine looked at the sky and saw countless flames descending, she felt lost and helpless.
These flames were too high ranked.
Bright light glorious ring fire made up most of these flames, this was the heaven flame of the three flames in the world, it was a rank nine fire path immortal material!
One had to be a rank eight fire path great expert at least to deal with it.
But in the sky above Central Continent, there was a colossal immortal formation.
Central Continent's Gu Immortals wanted to defend the formation so they had to deal with these flames.
"Lady Star Constellation Immortal Venerable, please give us the orders." Shi Lei shouted loudly.
Star Constellation sighed softly as she left behind her will and some rank nine immortal essence, controlling Embroidered Tower to deal with the situation here.
But her main body had left already, heading for the two heavens.
Eastern Sea.
Fang Yuan was currently using investigative methods to observe the five regions.
"With the collapse of the sun, countless immortal materials are scattered everywhere. Among them, the light path resources are mostly flying around in the two heavens while the fire path resources are scattered onto the five regions."
"Fire rain is most common in Western Desert while least common in Eastern Sea."
The reason was simple.
Conflict of dao marks.
In the five regions, Eastern Sea had the most water path dao marks, while Western Desert had the most fire path dao marks. Thus, the fire rain preferred to target Western Desert instead.
"These flames are top tier resources, if they are gathered to a certain size, they can be made into fire path resource points."
"Especially the bright light glorious ring fire, this rank nine immortal material is extremely rare and barely found anywhere. It is a prime opportunity to gain a huge amount of it now, I need to make use of this."
Fang Yuan immediately ordered his Gu Immortals to head to various locations to collect the fire path resources.
But regrettably, he had the most water path Gu Immortals and only a few fire path Gu Immortals, not to mention rank eight fire path cultivators.
Regarding this, Fang Yuan used his will in treasure yellow heaven to make an announcement:
"Good news, good news! The Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance is holding an event!"
"Anyone who collects enough fire path immortal materials can exchange them with us for alliance contribution points."
"If you collect enough alliance contribution points, you will be able to join the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance officially, it will not cost you resource points!"
"After joining the alliance, you will also retain the contribution points from exchanging immortal materials."
Fang Yuan's will tossed out a list that wrote the details of each exchange clearly. Bright light glorious ring fire was listed at the top, it could exchange for the most contribution points.
The Gu Immortals of the world heard the announcement and instantly became moved.
Originally, joining the Heaven and Earth Great Love Alliance required resource points, but now, all they had to do was to collect fire path immortal materials.
For the bulk of the Gu Immortals, the entry requirement fell once again.
Fang Yuan's will added: "This event will only last for a short while, the fastest ones will gain the most, once I collect enough fire path immortal materials, this event will end immediately."
"Fire path immortal material? What a pity, other than the bright light glorious ring fire, if I go to collect the other fire path immortal materials, the gains will be lower than just collecting heaven path immortal materials." In the two heavens, Shen Shang was busy scavenging for resources.
"Are we not pursuing Fang clan anymore?"
"For what? Let Heavenly Court's Zhou Xiong Xin do it. Let's quickly collect these fire path immortal materials, we can use some ourselves while selling the rest to Great Love Immortal Venerable. This opportunity will not knock twice!"
More and more Gu Immortals in Western Desert started to move out.
Southern Border.
Wu Yong led Wu clan's Gu Immortals as they started to move around with lightning speed.
Benefits tempted everyone, a large number of Gu Immortals in the five regions were mobilized by Fang Yuan as a result.
As for Fang Yuan, he personally headed into the two heavens.
The destruction of the sun also affected his plan. Originally, he wanted to wait for Spectral Soul Demon Venerable and the sun to both get weakened. If his refinement of heavenly secret Gu succeeded in time, he would be able to gain some benefits from Spectral Soul Demon Venerable.
But now, he had to refine heavenly secret Gu while keeping up with the facade.
Thus, he had to enter the two heavens and pretend that he was trying to go after the rank nine Immortal Gu.
This was the normal reaction and behavior that he should have.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable were brilliant people, Fang Yuan had to do this to avoid exposing himself.
After the sun was destroyed, the five regions became dim.
Mortal Gu Masters were fearful and shocked while other lifeforms also panicked, the crying and growling of beasts and birds could be heard everywhere.
This was an unprecedented change!
A large scale panic was unavoidable.
Starlight flickered randomly as a legendary immemorial desolate beast charged out while bathed in blood.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was the first to arrive, she waved her hand as the blood and scales that were left in the air gathered in her hands.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable quickly made deductions with her wisdom path immortal killer move.
"This is You Tian Guang?!" She quickly deduced the identity of this legendary immemorial beast, she felt a little shocked.
You Tian Guang and Zuo Ye Hui had once terrorized the five regions, they whipped up a bloody storm. They were extremely crafty, they worked together and whenever a Demon Venerable or Immortal Venerable was alive, they would hide and not show up.
But eventually, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable brought peace to the world and killed You Tian Guang.
This was recorded in history.
"But You Tian Guang is actually alive, did it fake its death?"
"Could it fake its death in front of Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable? Or does that mean... this is part of Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable's arrangement?"
At this moment, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable thought of many things.
The situation had gotten quite mysterious and complex.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable pursued the beast while analyzing to herself.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable's move!
According to the situation in Crazed Demon Cave, originally, once Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable revived, he would become a heaven path venerable. That would allow him to gain an immense advantage in the two heavens. Especially after he refines all the heaven path dao marks in the two heavens, he would be able to control all the heaven vein nodes.
By then, Heavenly Court and Longevity Heaven would be greatly threatened by him!
The sun was also a heaven vein node.
Back then, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable intentionally placed You Tian Guang inside the sun as an arrangement for him to capture the sun in the future.
"Thankfully, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable is dead now. From this aspect, I should thank Fang Yuan instead?" The moment Star Constellation Immortal Venerable thought of Fang Yuan, he appeared before her.
"Friend Star Constellation, we meet again." Fang Yuan smiled as he greeted.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable snorted coldly internally but she showed a kind smile on her face, her demeanor was extremely elegant.
The two had a warm attitude but their movements did not slow down, instead, they moved even faster.
The two venerables were guarded against each other as they attacked You Tian Guang.
This You Tian Guang had human form, its back was bent and its forearms were long, there was a horn on its head and its body was covered in scales that resembled countless mirrors that reflected light in all directions.
Under the pursuit of both venerables, You Tian Guang actually managed to escape time and again.
"As I expected, You Tian Guang brought away rank nine light Gu! It has not been refined yet, this is still a wild Immortal Gu." Fang Yuan noticed the peculiarity.
He sighed internally.
Inside sovereign immortal aperture, the refinement of heavenly secret Immortal Gu had reached a crucial moment.
He did not want to go after this rank nine light Gu.
If he obtained it, the two venerables would attack him in a frenzy to try and snatch it.
After all, a rank nine Immortal Gu was able to break the balance between the three venerables!
Nobody wanted this Immortal Gu to end up in another's hands.
But Fang Yuan had to say what he had to say: "You Tian Guang, I am best friends with your master Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable. After he died, he gave his inheritance to me but did not have time to tell me about you. Quickly leave with me, I will ensure your safety!"
You Tian Guang coughed out blood while shouting: "That old bastard Paradise Earth, I was almost beaten to death by him, it took all my effort to hide in the sun to recuperate. I only managed to recover a little after sleeping for so many years. He did this to me, I will definitely not submit to you!"
"That means this is not Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable's arrangement?" Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was slightly stunned, she could sense You Tian Guang's emotions, it was not lying.
"You Tian Guang was able to escape by faking death in front of Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable, it is quite amazing." Light Emperor who was hiding nearby thought to himself.
He was hiding inside a black cloud, at this moment, he did not want to dazzle anyone.
-x-X-x-
Immortal killer move — Sword Tongue Dragon Soul.
Fang Yuan's body shook slightly as a hundred evil dragons appeared around him instantly.
The evil dragons danced and paraded, they gathered into a group and encircled You Tian Guang.
He had used this compound killer move before, if he used it against Star Constellation Immortal Venerable, there would be a risk of it getting unraveled or countered. But now, Fang Yuan used it to trap You Tian Guang.
The evil dragons attacked You Tian Guang from all directions, they bit, swung their tails, stabbed with their horns, or used their claws, some even shot out sharp sword qi with their tongues...
In this dangerous situation, You Tian Guang erupted with the strength of a legendary immemorial beast.
It waved its hands and its body moved like lightning, the horn on its head was extremely sharp, in just a whole, three evil dragons were sliced in half.
After a lot of effort, it managed to kill several evil dragons, but dragon souls came out of them to modify the battlefield.
The more evil dragons that died, the more dragon souls that gathered, the battlefield was filled with soul path dao marks that made the dragon souls even stronger!
The situation was increasingly dangerous, You Tian Guang tried to charge out from different directions as it fought a bloody battle, but it could not break free from the evil dragons.
Sensing the danger that its host was in, the wild rank nine light Gu in You Tian Guang's body burst out with its power again.
A piercing light shone on the entire battlefield, it seemingly tried to escape with You Tian Guang by turning it into a ray of light.
Earlier, when Fang Yuan and Star Constellation chased after You Tian Guang, this was the move that caused them to fail in capturing it multiple times.
But now, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was already prepared.
Starlight specks flew out and surrounded You Tian Guang's body.
The wild rank nine light Gu burst out with power but the starlight specks suppressed most of its strength, it failed to escape with You Tian Guang but caused it to suffer huge injuries instead.
Rank nine light Gu was a wild Gu, it was not in sync with You Tian Guang, thus, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable found its weakness.
But this was normal.
Even though You Tian Guang and light Gu had been together for a long time, it had spent most of the time sleeping.
Now that it was awake, with just rank eight cultivation level, it could not refine a wild rank nine Immortal Gu.
Back then, even Star Constellation Immortal Venerable who had become venerable spent a hundred years to refine the wild rank nine wisdom Gu.
As for Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, he attempted to refine rank nine love Gu and failed in the end.
You Tian Guang's blood spewed out like a geyser, it fell into despair.
The enemies were too powerful, it had suffered huge injuries that caused it to become even slower than before.
But it still struggled.
For the meager hope in its heart that wanted to escape, it resisted!
"Don't come here, don't come here..." Light Emperor hid in the black cloud and watched as You Tian Guang approached him, he became flustered and anxious.
You Tian Guang coincidentally escape in the direction that led to him.
"Is this my so-called fortuitous encounter?" Light Emperor sudden shook as he recalled Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's words.
He immediately understood that his fortuitous encounter was rank nine light Gu, but...
"Father, this is too much!" Light Emperor glanced at Fang Yuan and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable, he did not even dare to look at them for more than a moment in fear that they would notice him.
Light Emperor's bald head almost wanted to hide in his chest.
All along, his body had been emitting light, but now, he kept the light concealed as only a thin halo was left.
But You Tian Guang still came in his direction at full speed.
At this moment, Light Emperor could feel nothing but hatred towards this huge fortuitous encounter!
He did not know that Fang Yuan was feeling the same.
"The timing is not right. If this happened after I refined heavenly secret Gu, I will be able to use my full strength to capture the wild light Gu!"
Fang Yuan attacked and chased You Tian Guang while secretly refining heavenly secret Gu.
Thankfully, he spent a lot of effort to modify heavenly secret Immortal Gu's recipe.
Using Four Elements Square Regret Blood Refinement Pool, and with the help of the hairy man Gu Immortals, heavenly secret Gu's refinement proceeded without a hitch.
"The following is the most difficult part. But at this time, I need to chase after that rank nine light Gu! Sigh..." Fang Yuan sighed to himself.
He did not feel much attraction to rank nine light Gu.
Rank nine Heavenly secret Gu had far greater value to Fang Yuan than light Gu.
But the situation had progressed to this stage, Fang Yuan had to show that he was determined to take the Immortal Gu for himself.
"Fate Gu has been destroyed, this situation should have been caused by the contest of luck between the other three venerables and myself." Fang Yuan had a vague comprehension.
Once Fang Yuan refined heavenly secret Gu successfully, his strength would grow immensely, the benefits would not just be limited to obscured heavenly secret, there were other advantages too.
But in that case, Fang Yuan's advantage would be too huge.
Precisely so, the other three venerables were threatened by Fang Yuan. Although they did not notice it, their luck had already started to retaliate.
The luck of Spectral Soul Demon Venerable, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable mixed together and attacked Fang Yuan in unison.
Precisely so, at the crucial moment of refining heavenly secret Gu, Fang Yuan faced such a huge difficulty and uncertainty.
"In this situation with the existence of four venerables and contest of three venerables, the current timing is a crucial turning point! Sovereign immortal aperture, rank nine Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus, rank nine advance refinement Immortal Gu, my cultivation of refinement path and heaven path, as well as other elements like obscured heavenly secret have given me a huge advantage that is deeply hidden, my luck is comparable to all three of them together."
This comparison was under the situation where the three venerables did not know the truth. because they canceled out a portion of each other's luck, this allowed Fang Yuan to match them evenly.
Once the venerables understood the situation and found out the truth, they would cooperate with each other and cause this cancellation to be smaller. By then, their collective luck would surpass Fang Yuan.
"If I get past this difficulty without the three of them finding out the truth, after gaining rank nine heavenly secret Immortal Gu, my luck will be higher than the three of them combined. After a qualitative change, when I refine other rank nine Immortal Gu in the future, I will no longer face such a hurdle."
After making an analysis, Fang Yuan understood that this was a crucial fight.
If it were to be said that becoming a refinement path venerable was the foundation to resisting the other venerables.
Then after refining rank nine Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus, Fang Yuan shortened the gap between himself and the venerables.
After refining rank nine advance refinement Gu, the gap was shortened even further, it even deepened Fang Yuan's advantage in refinement path.
And now, if he refined rank nine heavenly secret Gu, it would create the turning point in the contest of three venerables!
Once this crucial point was passed, Fang Yuan would surpass the other venerables, he would have a true advantage against them.
As star fog appeared, You Tian Guang's path was completely blocked.
Evidently, this was an incomplete battlefield killer move.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable wanted to use this battlefield killer move to trap You Tian Guang and the wild rank nine light Gu before dealing with them.
Fang Yuan had not seen Star Constellation Immortal Venerable use a battlefield killer move before, he was hesitant now.
Should he try to destroy it now?
It was not something that he could not tolerate for Star Constellation Immortal Venerable to obtain the wild rank nine light Gu.
It was very difficult to refine rank nine light Gu, while Star Constellation Immortal Venerable did not cultivate light path. After getting it, during the period that she tries to refine it, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's positive luck would fall greatly.
From the perspective of the situation, in order to prevent Fang Yuan from ruining her plan, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable would definitely give up more benefits to Fang Yuan.
This was very beneficial to Fang Yuan.
Thinking of this, Fang Yuan activated his killer move.
Immortal killer move — Seven Kills Rainbow!
Metal path's yellow light, wood path's jade-green light, water path's light blue hue, fire path's red light, earth path's brown light, wind path's green radiance, and lightning path's deep blue light; seven lights from these seven paths mixed together and shot forward in a drill shape towards You Tian Guang.
You Tian Guang immediately sensed fatal danger.
If he was hit by this move, it would definitely perish, alongside the rank nine light Gu in its body.
But Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was guarded against Fang Yuan.
"What are you trying to do?!" Star Constellation Immortal Venerable called out as starlight flew out, forming a veil made of stardust, it was like a wall between heaven and earth, blocking Fang Yuan's seven kills rainbow.
Fang Yuan's mind was also running out of thoughts, he had to refine heavenly secret Gu while maintaining his defensive killer moves and movement killer moves. Earlier, he even had to use an offensive killer move like seven kills rainbow forcefully.
Fang Yuan snorted coldly but did not show any weakness: "Friend Star Constellation, even if you want to get rank nine light Gu, do you think it will be this easy?"
On the outside, Fang Yuan showed an attitude of relentlessness, he was prepared to fight to the end. But the truth was, he had already made up his mind to destroy this wild light Gu, if that failed, so be it if Star Constellation Immortal Venerable got the Gu.
In Fang Yuan's condition, he could not obtain the Gu even if he tried. The priority was to destroy rank nine light Gu, followed by letting Star Constellation Immortal Venerable have it, the worst case was for Giant Sun Immortal Venerable to get it.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable were not light path Gu cultivators, but if Giant Sun Immortal Venerable got this rank nine light Gu, his own luck would grow explosively.
That was extremely useful for Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, with his attainment in luck path, he would become much stronger.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable sighed: "Friend Fang Yuan, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable has not arrived yet, are we really going to fight now?"
Fang Yuan smiled coldly: "Why not? If I wait any further, aren't you going to obtain the rank nine Immortal Gu already?"
Fang Yuan and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable went into a standoff.
Fang Yuan targeted the incomplete star fog battlefield killer move occasionally, while attacking You Tian Guang and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable respectively at other times.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was worthy of being a wisdom path venerable, her mind was filled with thoughts, she managed to handle all the various aspects and keep her control over the situation.
Although the situation was in a deadlock, it was clearly tilting towards Star Constellation Immortal Venerable.
During the contest of the venerables, You Tian Guang had already gotten severely injured, rank nine light Gu tried many attempts to escape with it but Star Constellation Immortal Venerable blocked it each time.
Seeing that the star fog was about to gather into a complete battlefield killer move, Light Emperor could not wait anymore.
"Dazzle them!" He attacked abruptly using his strongest method.
Blinding white light filled the entire battlefield, Light Emperor used all his effort to create a small opening in the star fog.
"Escape, escape, escape!" Light Emperor desperately charged towards the exit, he did not have the energy to care about the rank nine Immortal Gu.
He had waited for a long time before Fang Yuan weakened the star fog battlefield sufficiently without Star Constellation Immortal Venerable having the time to replenish it. Thus, he could make an opening in this battlefield.
If he waited any longer and the star fog battlefield formed completely, he would have no chance of escaping anymore.
