Southern Border.
Deep within a certain Earth Trench.
Kong Ri Tian made the final inspection of the Gu formation and confirmed that it was operational.
For the last ten or so days, he had purposely picked this location and set up several Gu formations in the vicinity of over ten li.
"Although I am not specialized in formation path, I can still create some simple mortal formations. With these formations, you will be able to quickly notice any peculiarities in the surroundings."
"You have my guidance, your chance of success at immortal ascension is high." Kong Sheng Tian's will was inside Kong Ri Tian's mind, he said with some confidence.
Kong Ri Tian nodded: "Ancestor, is there anything else I need to know?"
Kong Sheng Tian thought about it and said: "Don't be greedy during the natural inspiration, but remember to make good use of it. Since you cultivate qi path, ask heaven's will questions about qi path related matters, don't go after the secrets of other paths, it will not be worth it."
"Natural inspiration has its limits, you can't receive an infinite amount of information."
"Furthermore, when asking qi path related questions, don't be too broad or demand too much. Don't ask for rank eight or nine qi path Immortal Gu recipes, you won't receive a complete one. Even if you obtain an incomplete recipe, it may not even have five percent of the content!"
Kong Ri Tian kept these words in his mind as he nodded: "Then I'll ask qi path related questions that are problems that I currently face."
"That is the right thing to do." Kong Sheng Tian laughed loudly.
Kong Ri Tian shattered his aperture and started the tribulation.
Heaven and earth qi surged in the surroundings, forming a three days flying ring tribulation.
The flying ring was powerful and soared in the sky, lasting for three days and night.
Kong Ri Tian resisted with difficulty, eventually becoming a rank six Gu Immortal with a high grade blessed land.
Kong Sheng Tian's will sighed: "Your luck is very poor to have encountered such a tribulation. This tribulation is very special, it will last for three days and nights, even if you destroy the ring, it will regenerate."
"To protect you, I expended almost all my immortal essence."
"I told you not to provoke that Xiao Yan."
Kong Ri Tian was confused: "What does this have to do with Xiao Yan?"
Kong Sheng Tian said: "Xiao Yan's innate luck is comparable to you before obtaining Sheng Tian true inheritance. Most importantly, he is Shang Xin Ci's subordinate. This girl has incredible luck, going against Xiao Yan will cause your luck to be expended against Xiao Yan and Shang Xin Ci."
"Now that your luck is low, when undergoing tribulation, the three days flying ring tribulation appeared to waste all of my remaining immortal essence."
Kong Ri Tian had an unsightly expression.
Back then, he attacked Xiao Yan and wanted to frame it on the demonic path Gu Master Bao Tong. In the end, an accident occurred as he did not expect the tap fire to contain an immortal material flame.
Kong Ri Tian was not a Gu Master then, he did not want to waste the precious immortal essence for Kong Sheng Tian to use his immortal method, thus, an intense battle broke out and the tap fire was dispersed, causing the immortal essence flame inside to explode.
The immortal material flame burned the entire mountain and could not be stopped, Xiao Yan and Bao Tong were both trapped in the fire.
Kong Ri Tian managed to escape with the help of Kong Sheng Tian's will.
To think that the backlash of that decision would influence Kong Ri Tian's immortal ascension.
Kong Sheng Tian sighed: "I underestimated that Shang Xin Ci. Unless your cultivation level and battle strength surpasses her completely, do not provoke her anymore. Do not even touch anyone who is close to her."
Kong Ri Tian gritted his teeth: "Ancestor, are you exaggerating this?"
"Hmph, foolish child. Innate luck[1. There are a lot of ways to write luck in Chinese, this one is written as 'qi variable', which is why qi path is involved.] is profound and mystical, back in my days when qi path dominated the world, many geniuses were able to catch a glimpse of it profundity."
"Do not underestimate the variance of luck."
"Look at Giant Sun Immortal Venerable. I believe this person must have used innate luck as a reference when he created luck path."
"You have already become a Gu Immortal, you should learn more. Gu cultivation paths are not independent of each other, they influence and affect each other in a connected way. The connection between qi path and luck path is this innate luck."
Eventually, Kong Sheng Tian's will convinced Kong Ri Tian after a lengthy talk.
"Gu Immortal cultivation is far more profound and deep than Gu Master cultivation. I am lucky to have your help, ancestor, otherwise, I would have to undergo immortal ascension without knowing anything!" Kong Ri Tian sighed.
Next, he consulted: "What do I do now, what is the most important thing?"
Kong Sheng Tian's will did not hesitate: "Little fellow, although you become an immortal, there is not enough heaven and earth qi to help you refine your vital Gu into an Immortal Gu."
"This qi path Gu worm is crucial to the entire Sheng Tian true inheritance."
Kong Ri Tian understood at once: "So now, I need to refine that Immortal Gu?"
Kong Sheng Tian's will snorted coldly: "Hehe, the ignorant have no fear. Do you think you can refine an Immortal Gu? Even if you go bankrupt, you will still have no chance of success."
"Do you know that most rank six Gu Immortals do not even own one rank six Immortal Gu? Most rank seven Gu Immortals spend their lives trying to get a rank seven Immortal Gu. This is true even for venerables. Go and think about how hard it is for a Gu Immortal to refine an Immortal Gu that suits them!"
Kong Ri Tian was tongue-tied, he felt shocked: "This is too hard, isn't it?"
Kong Sheng Tian's will sighed: "Gu Immortal cultivation is tough, it is much risker than being a Gu Master. Kid, you need to learn to survive now. Each calamity and tribulation is a test. You have a higher starting point than many others, but you cannot act rashly. Especially in trying to refine an Immortal Gu, it can make you bankrupt without any gains in return."
Kong Ri Tian was troubled: "What do I do now? Ancestor, you told me that I should make my vital Gu an Immortal Gu, but you also told me that I cannot refine Immortal Gu. So what should I do? Stop beating around the bush."
Kong Sheng Tian's will snorted again: "Kid, are you willing to listen to me now? earlier, I told you time and again not to provoke that Xiao Yan, but what did you do? You are just too young!"
"Yes, yes." Kong Ri Tian quickly apologized: "Ancestor, from now on, I will listen to you."
Seeing that his descendant had given in, Kong Sheng Tian's will stopped wasting time, he said: "You are quite lucky to have a refinement path venerable like Fang Yuan in your era. Go make a transaction with him if you want to refine Immortal Gu."
"Wait, you want me to transact with him in treasure yellow heaven? Aren't you afraid..."
Before Kong Ri Tian could continue, Kong Sheng Tian rebuked him: "Do you think a grand venerable will care about a rank six Immortal Gu? I know what you are afraid of, aren't you afraid that Fang Yuan is still connected to Shang Xin Ci? But you did not do anything to her either."
Kong Ri Tian heard this and thought about it, feeling a little hurt internally.
Kong Sheng Tian's will was not wrong.
In Kong Ri Tian and Shang Xin Ci's encounters, he had always suffered a loss. Last time, he was chased after by Shang Xin Ci and Wu Ji because of Sheng Tian true inheritance. Afterwards, he also suffered losses during his tribulation after provoking Xiao Yan.
Shang Xin Ci was having a great life now, while Kong Ri Tian was suffering more now.
"Let's go to treasure yellow heaven, we will talk to Fang Yuan's will." Eventually, Kong Ri Tian said.
Back in Western Desert.
The sandstorm stopped.
Mo Li had rank six cultivation level, he bowed deeply at the featherman Gu Immortals in front of him.
"Friends from Yi clan, thank you for the help. Otherwise, I would not have been able to become a Gu Immortal on my own." Mo Li thanked them sincerely.
Ever since the contest in Sand Heap blessed land, he was saved by the mysterious super force, Yi clan, in Western Desert.
Mo Li came to Yi clan's headquarters and after interacting with them, he found that they were actually all feathermen.
This time, with the help of Yi clan's Gu Immortals, Mo Li became an immortal.
Yi clan's Gu Immortal Zhou Yi Kou said: "Friend Mo Li, you are too polite. You are one who obtained Thieving Heaven true inheritance, that means you are his inheritor. Back then, our Yi clan's ancestor was helped by Lord Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable and survived. With the help of his method, Yi clan was able to stay hidden for so many years."
"Lord Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable is our benefactor, the entire Yi clan believes that Lord Demon Venerable has not died so easily without making a sound!"
"By helping you now, we also want to repay the debt we owe to Lord Thieving Heaven."
"If one day in the future, Lord Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable revives, our entire Yi clan will follow him by his side."
"Thus, we are comrades."
Mo Li was deeply moved by the featherman Gu Immortal Zhou Yi Kou's words, he had a warm feeling in his heart.
Central Continent.
Wei Wu Shang looked at the qi lump in his immortal aperture with a heated gaze.
Just earlier, he had succeeded in the tribulation, becoming a human path Gu Immortal.
He obtained a high grade blessed land, the remaining heaven and earth qi was enough for him to refine a vital Immortal Gu.
His vital Gu was thief Gu, it was already enveloped in heaven and earth qi now.
"I heard that Gu Ting, Sun Yuan Hua, and the rest became immortals but did not refine a human path Immortal Gu. I am different from them!"
"Recently, while deeply asleep at night, I had the urge to pee and woke up. At that moment, I gained a burst of inspiration and comprehended thief Gu's Immortal Gu recipe."
"With this Immortal Gu recipe and so much heaven and earth qi remaining, I can definitely refine thief Immortal Gu. Hahaha, this Immortal Gu recipe is worth waking up to pee at night."
Although Wei Wu Shang entered the derivation formation, his memories were altered and caused him to think that it was inspiration that allowed him to create thief Immortal Gu's recipe.
But...
After fifteen minutes.
Wei Wu Shang grunted as he fell to the ground. The heaven and earth qi were completely expended while his vital Gu was heavily damaged.
"I failed the Gu refinement?"
"Impossible!"
Wei Wu Shang could not believe what had happened.
"To refine the vital Gu, I used heaven and earth qi. This is borrowing the power of heaven and earth to refine Gu, it has nothing to do with my refinement path attainment. So how did I fail?"
Wei Wu Shang could only think of one explanation: "I failed because Immortal Gu is unique?!"
Thinking of this, Wei Wu Shang shook his head.
In his view, this was even more impossible.
It meant that someone else had already refined thief Immortal Gu.
"I am the creator of thief Immortal Gu, how can anyone get the recipe before me? Unless... thief Immortal Gu already exists naturally in the world?"
"But that's also strange... human path should not have developed this deeply yet."
Wei Wu Shang fell into deep confusion as he contemplated.
-x-X-x-
Heavenly Court.
Another Gu Immortal walked out of the derivation formation.
This female immortal wore golden armor, there was a golden cape flowing down her back, extending from her shoulder to the ground.
She was taller than normal people and her shoulders were broad, when she walked, her long legs were the most eye-catching as they made her look beautiful and elegant.
Her nose bridge was tall, her lips were thin and her eyes were also thin. She had outstanding presence, she was like born royalty that ruled above the common man. When she looked at people, because of her height, she often had to look down. She had an authoritative aura that was fermented naturally within her, people would lower their heads and not dare to look at her directly, it was as if they could only look at her feet in order to not offend her.
She was Qin Ding Ling.
After walking out of the derivation formation, Qin Ding Ling quickly recovered her senses.
She turned around and looked at the derivation formation behind her, her eyes shone with unprecedented brightness.
She was very excited!
Her entry to the formation gave her great gains.
The most exciting thing that she obtained from this derivation formation was the hope for Heavenly Court to defeat Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, Heaven Refining Demon Venerable, and Spectral Soul Demon Venerable!
Why was that?
Simply because the derivation formation's ability to develop a Gu cultivator's path was just too powerful.
Like how Qin Ding Ling obtained huge gains when she entered the formation this time.
This was not just her personal growth, it helped to push the entire luck path forward in development.
Thanks to her going into the formation, the luck path of the world took a huge stride forward, obtaining huge development.
What did this mean?
This meant that as long as more luck path Gu Immortals like Qin Ding Ling entered the derivation formation, luck path would develop further.
When the number of times accumulate, the quantitative growth would trigger a qualitative transformation.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable would be kicked out of his supreme grandmaster attainment level!
Supreme grandmaster attainment level meant that the Gu cultivator's understanding of a certain path was equivalent to the world.
After Qin Ding Ling entered the formation, she became the core that used the vast number of inheritances in Heavenly Court to deduce many new research results of luck path.
These new results were just some accumulation that Giant Sun Immortal Venerable could decipher with just a glance.
Because these luck path research results were still under the scope of the current profundity of luck path, it had not exceeded the existing limits. It was a quantitative growth but not a qualitative change.
But once the quantity accumulated, there would be a qualitative transformation.
Once there was a qualitative change, the entire world's luck path attainment level would rise by a level, while Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's attainment level would lag behind.
At that point, he would no longer be a luck path supreme grandmaster!
In that case, he would not be a Dao Lord anymore and would not be able to refine natural luck path dao marks.
That would be a disastrous blow to Giant Sun Immortal Venerable!
"It is a pity that Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had been protecting luck path from getting spread widely in the world."
"Otherwise, if there are more luck path Gu Immortals like me to enter the derivation formation, we will be able to kick Giant Sun Immortal Venerable out of supreme grandmaster attainment level."
Qin Ding Ling expressed her pity towards this.
After leaving the derivation formation, she would not be able to enter for a long time. Going in forcefully would not have any gains but instead cause her irreparable harm.
It was too late to start nurturing luck path Gu Immortals.
Only a peak rank eight Gu cultivator like Qin Ding Ling could promote the advancement of the entire luck path.
Of course, it was not impossible for other luck path Gu Immortals or Gu Masters.
But they had not reached the apex of luck path, it was simply too hard to exceed the current accomplishments of heaven and earth.
For Heavenly Court, this was too costly to try and the gains they could derive from it were just too small.
"Next, it is my turn." Fairy Maiden Soul smiled at Qin Ding Ling as she walked past the latter.
Fairy Maiden Soul went into the derivation formation and vanished.
She was Heavenly Court's soul path great expert from Spectral Soul's era, she was on par with Thunder Ghost True Monarch.
This entry into the formation would derive great gains, it would promote the development of the world's soul path.
"It is a pity that Heavenly Court currently lacks refinement path great experts. There are many refinement path Gu Immortals in the ten great ancient sects but few are rank eight. Furthermore, none are great experts who have reached a certain height of refinement path."
Qin Ding Ling pondered.
Heavenly Court's derivation formation showed the terrifying power of Star Constellation Immortal Venerable!
But to kick a venerable out of supreme grandmaster attainment level, the difficulty was too high.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's luck path, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable's soul path, and Heaven Refining Demon Venerable's refinement path. There was a need to have many Gu cultivators in these three paths.
Heavenly Court had the derivation formation but rank nine derivation Gu was not refined by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable, thus, it was still wild and took in natural essence on its own.
As a result, the derivation formation needed very little immortal essence to operate.
But Heavenly Court lacked crucial members.
Without enough great experts in these paths, the derivation formation could not kick the venerables out of their thrones.
"Maybe, this is the reason why Heavenly Court needs to focus on developing human path?" Qin Ding Ling had a flash of inspiration.
She could only see a small part of Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's plan, she could not decipher the big picture.
Eastern Sea.
The sea was calm without any waves.
Gu Yue Fang Xiang was at the crucial moment of his immortal ascension.
Heaven, earth and human qi had already surrounded him completely.
Gu Yue Fang Xiang gritted his teeth as he did his best to balance the three qi, condensing them as much as he could.
"I must succeed!"
"I need to become a Gu Immortal to save my mother."
"Also, I need to become a Gu Immortal and gain more strength to find my father!"
Gu Yue Fang Xiang cheered himself on, but soon, most of his attention was diverted to something else.
At this moment, he sensed heaven's will.
This was the moment for natural inspiration!
"You must succeed." The mermaid immortal Lian Ke Xin floated in the air openly as she appeared right beside Gu Yue Fang Xiang.
Her eyes did not move at all, she stared at him fixedly.
Unfortunately, the process of balancing the three qi could not be interrupted, otherwise, Lian Ke Xin would rather do it for him.
This time, she had taken the mission from the mission board to 'accidentally' meet Gu Yue Fang Xiang and coax him to go to a place suitable for immortal ascension.
The truth was, Fang Yuan secretly opened sovereign immortal aperture's door to bring Gu Yue Fang Xiang to the five regions.
While Gu Yue Fang Xiang was undergoing tribulation, Fang Yuan hid near him but was not idling.
He was secretly using a powerful rank nine heaven path killer move.
It was not obscured heavenly secret, this was — Stealing Heavenly Secret!
After activating this move, one could steal the knowledge of heaven's will when a Gu Master undergoes ascension and experiences natural inspiration.
Stealing heavenly secret killer move's first core was the rank nine heavenly secret Immortal Gu, the second core was rank eight great thief Immortal Gu.
Back then, when Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable first created rank eight heavenly secret Gu, the initial goal was to use it to sense heaven and earth, attempting to artificially enter natural inspiration.
Normally, a Gu cultivator would only have one opportunity at natural inspiration in their life.
When a Gu Master undergoes immortal ascension, they would use the opportunity when the aperture turns into an immortal aperture world to gain the recognition of heaven's will and communicate with it.
At this time, the Gu Master would be able to ask heaven's will questions, and their inquiries would be answered to a certain extent.
This was a once in a lifetime opportunity but the extent of answers was limited.
Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable succeeded.
There were no events in the world that heaven and earth did not know of.
Just using rank eight heavenly secret Gu would allow the Gu cultivator to ask heaven's will and get an answer. It was able to expose the secrets of heaven and earth, even without any evidence, the Gu Immortal could reach the truth.
By using heavenly secret Gu with other Gu worms, before undergoing tribulation, they would be able to find out the content of the calamities and tribulations to make appropriate countermeasures.
And in terms of concealment, obscured heavenly secret was the best example.
If Fang Yuan used rank nine heavenly secret Gu alone, he would not be able to get any answers from heaven's will.
Because heaven's will did not like him.
Fang Yuan was one of the main culprits who destroyed fate Gu, heaven's will had been trying to kill him the entire time.
With such a relationship, how could heaven's will give him any answers?
Fang Yuan understood the advantages of natural inspiration. Earlier in the battle in Crazed Demon Cave, why did he produce so many powerful killer moves?
Other than self deduction, he had also secretly used the natural inspiration of many Gu Masters in his immortal aperture when they ascended, saving him precious time and energy.
Without these exceptional killer moves, Fang Yuan would have gotten killed by the two venerables.
Thus, natural inspiration was a huge reason why Fang Yuan emerged victorious in Crazed Demon Cave.
Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable wanted more natural inspiration opportunities, so did Fang Yuan!
Every Gu cultivator knew the precious value of natural inspiration.
To do this, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable created rank eight heavenly secret Gu, what about Fang Yuan?
He made stealing heavenly secret killer move.
This killer move was created long ago, but it was only rank eight then and had limited strength.
Honestly speaking, it was worthless.
Too much immortal essence was expended for too little gains.
He might as well order Gu Masters to ask specific questions during their natural inspiration.
But this was in the past.
Right now, the situation had changed greatly.
The reason was rank nine heavenly secret Gu!
Where did rank nine heavenly secret Gu originate from?
Truthful floating ice.
This was Limitless Demon Venerable's arrangement, he had used the chaos outside the world to fuel the Crazed Demon formation, it was a grand accomplishment from countless years of effort.
Starting from the eighth layer, Crazed Demon Cave was isolated from the five regions. Crazed Demon formation was no exception.
But Fang Yuan refined rank nine heavenly secret Gu in his own sovereign immortal aperture, it was also isolated from the five regions.
This meant that the current Gu cultivation world did not have the recipe of rank nine heavenly secret Gu.
By having rank nine heavenly secret Gu, on just this point, Fang Yuan was already above the entire world!
Rank eight stealing heavenly secret had limited power but rank nine stealing heavenly secret was above the world, it surpassed even heaven's will!
Each time there was a Gu Master undergoing natural inspiration, Fang Yuan would activate rank nine stealing heavenly secret killer move.
The gains were simply unimaginably immense!
Fang Yuan had a chance to observe everything that happened in the world.
In normal situations, the natural inspiration of Gu Masters was limited, this was the restriction set by heaven's will. But Fang Yuan's stealing heavenly secret could directly steal the answer, it did not matter what heaven's will intended to do!
-x-X-x-
During this period of time, how many Gu Masters went through immortal ascension in sovereign immortal aperture?
Golden Fur Immortal Monarch, Hair Monster Grotto Lord, Lightning Lion Warrior, Dharma Lion Warrior, Solid Rock Warrior, Steel Rush Warrior, Frost Butterfly Warrior, An Chong, Ye Zhi, Crossing Heaven Immortal Monarch, Black Locust, Rainbow Rock Immortal Concubine, Great Wisdom Immortal Mother, Bing Yuan, Bing Zhuo, Ice Crystal Immortal Monarch, Shi Zong, Ke Xin Hong, the six eggmen of Rotten Egg grotto-heaven, Xiao He Jian, Green Forest Great Sage, and now, Gu Yue Fang Xiang!
Most of the Gu Immortals who died in Crazed Demon Cave were already revived. This was excluding those who died during the chaotic disaster.
But Fang Yuan did not revive them as Gu Immortals, he only gave them Gu Master cultivation level.
One was to save resources and prevent Human Sea from getting expended, the other reason was for this opportunity!
Fang Yuan had always had a broad vision, he was also skilled at creating plans.
But in the past, his plans were often unable to keep up with changes.
Now, he had rank nine cultivation level, he was a refinement path venerable. With the destruction of fate Gu, there were few things in the world that could disrupt his plans!
Fang Yuan had purposely made accumulations in the past, now, during this trend of immortal ascension, he benefited immensely.
In just a few months, in just sovereign immortal aperture alone, more than thirty Gu Masters went through immortal ascension, this was excluding Fang Yuan's subordinate super forces in Eastern Sea and the two heavens.
Wu clan who was extremely famous now could not compare with such results.
But Fang Yuan concealed them all, not a single bit of information was leaked.
As for the benefits of immortal ascension, only a very small portion was for those who became rank six Gu Immortals, the bulk of the gains went to Fang Yuan through stealing heavenly secret!
This was something that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable could not dream of obtaining.
The truth was, even Fang Yuan did not think that his gains would be so huge!!
He obtained a large number of killer moves, Gu recipes, Immortal Gu Houses, immortal formations, blueprints to construct battlefield killer moves, countless ways to cultivate resources, as well as the most comprehensive map of the current five regions, and the location of various wild Immortal Gu.
After satisfying his needs, he looked into human path, pill path, painting path, star path, luck path, and others.
The outcome was extremely surprising to Fang Yuan, he was pleasantly stunned!
He had only given it a test but he obtained musician Immortal Gu's recipe, thief Immortal Gu's recipe, soldier Immortal Gu's recipe, sergeant Immortal Gu's recipe, and others, he even obtained a vast number of pill path and painting path Immortal Gu recipes.
He also gained various profundities of luck path, star path, and soul path that were very useful to him.
Now that Fang Yuan recalled it, the human path gains shocked him the most: "To think that human path has already developed to this extent in the current world."
Fang Yuan did not know of the existence of the derivation formation, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable had hidden it too well.
However, the root issue was with the derivation formation.
The core of the derivation formation was rank nine derivation Gu, it was not refined by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable so it was still a wild Immortal Gu.
It was not that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable did not want to refine it, but it could only be used in this situation as a wild Gu.
Once derivation Gu was refined by a person, it would become useless.
Limitless Demon Venerable had given it a try, thus, the Crazed Demon formation still used a wild rank nine derivation Gu as the core.
However, the innermost layers of Crazed Demon Cave were isolated from the main world, thus, it did not matter if derivation Gu was wild or not.
This was not the case for Heavenly Court.
Heavenly Court had devoured too many nine heavens fragments, it was full of heaven's will and was the largest heaven vein node in the two heavens.
When the two heavens were fusing, Heavenly Court had to mobilize all their rank eight experts and Immortal Gu Houses to survive the ordeal. In the end, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable personally took action after refining all of Heavenly Court's wisdom path dao marks. She stabilized the situation and prevented Spectral Soul Demon Venerable from finding them.
The current derivation formation was situated inside Heavenly Court, it was observable by heaven's will.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable could not stop that as long as it was inside Heavenly Court
Heaven's will was one of the foundations of Heavenly Court itself.
Other than Heavenly Court, where else could she safely put the derivation formation?
Nowhere.
At least, nowhere in Central Continent.
Thus, everything within the derivation formation was also known by heaven and earth.
This was a major flaw that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable knew.
But it did not matter.
Or rather, in her perspective, it did not matter.
The reason?
Heaven's will did not like any of the venerables now.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable had revived, how could heaven's will allow people to revive?
Fang Yuan was even worse, he was a complete otherworldly demon, one of the main culprits who destroyed fate Gu.
Only Spectral Soul Demon Venerable was more favored by heaven's will.
But he had lost his senses, even if he wanted to target Heavenly Court, with the door shut tight, he could not find his way in!
Even if he entered, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable had the amplification of Heavenly Court's wisdom path dao marks, would she fear him? It would be the best chance to kill him!
Like how Fang Yuan did not know of the derivation formation, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable also did not know that Fang Yuan had rank nine heavenly secret Gu.
And most importantly, Fang Yuan created stealing heavenly secret killer move!
Regardless of the inclination of heaven's will, Fang Yuan could use natural inspiration to steal countless heavenly secrets.
The three qi surrounded Gu Yue Fang Xiang who was currently undergoing natural inspiration.
Seeing this, Fang Yuan restrained his scattered thoughts and focused: "What heavenly secret should I steal this time?"
He thought about it: "I can ask for Heavenly Court's information directly, that seems fine. No matter how Star Constellation Immortal Venerable tries to hide things, my stealing heavenly secret is rank nine. If she wants to resist it, she needs to have a rank nine wisdom path Immortal Gu to achieve a qualitative change!
No matter how many wisdom path dao marks Heavenly Court had, it was only a quantitative amplification.
When Gu Yue Fang Xiang's aperture exploded to create an immortal aperture, becoming a rank six Gu Immortal, Fang Yuan's body shook.
"Derivation immortal formation?!"
"Star Constellation Immortal Venerable hid it too deeply, I only found out now."
"So that's it."
"Incredible, as expected of the number one wisdom path expert throughout the past and present!"
At this moment, Fang Yuan felt deep admiration towards Star Constellation Immortal Venerable.
She actually had such a method to rapidly promote the development of various paths.
The might of wisdom path was truly terrifying.
Such an enemy was worth admiring!
Northern Plains.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable stopped his action of refining Northern Plains' luck path dao marks.
"It is about time."
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable inspected the surroundings first. He had a unique way of refining Northern Plains' luck path dao marks, he did not stay at the same place for long, moving to other places after fully refining all of the dao marks in one area.
Instead, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable refined dao marks broadly, after refining sixty percent of the luck path dao marks of a certain area in Northern Plains, he would move on to the next location and continue his refinement.
After the battle in Crazed Demon Cave, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable started to refine Northern Plains' dao marks.
After various events like the Great Love declaration, Fang clan's saga, Spectral Soul destroying the sun, the three venerables' contest over light Gu, and the trend of immortal ascension, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable finally refined sixty percent of Northern Plains' luck path dao marks.
He had already covered the entire Northern Plains.
At the same time, he did not forget to develop his own rank nine immortal aperture, he went through several tribulations and put in several resource points.
With the increased foundation of his rank nine immortal aperture, his immortal essence production speed also rose.
As time passed, the immortal aperture foundation of the venerables would rise rapidly, their immortal essence would become more abundant.
BUt now, Giant Sun's immortal aperture was still far inferior to Longevity Heaven.
Longevity Heaven was the rank nine immortal aperture that Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had in his previous life. Because it did not devour any nine heavens fragment, it had gone through many calamities and tribulations over the years, gaining a huge number of dao marks through them.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable did not have sovereign immortal aperture, he could not annex a larger immortal aperture, while he also had to cultivate blood path. Thus, if he wanted to annex Longevity Heaven and gain the maximum benefit, he still lacked a lot of accumulation.
In terms of foundation, Longevity Heaven was inferior to Heavenly Court.
Heavenly Court had the immortal aperture of three venerables, while Giant Sun Immortal Venerable only had his own rank nine aperture as the foundation of his previous life.
But Longevity Heaven had a huge advantage that Heavenly Court lacked.
In the future, after Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's blood path cultivation reach a certain level, he could annex Longevity Heaven to raise his strength to a terrifying level!
After some rest, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable started to prepare his killer move.
As the killer move activated, soon, with the amplification of sixty percent of Northern Plains' luck path dao marks, a golden light appeared in the sky, dying the sky of the entire Northern Plains.
"Good, with this luck path killer move, in the future when my bloodline descendants undergo tribulation, they will receive some help!"
This was not just for immortal ascension, in the future, when Gu Immortals undergo calamities and tribulations, this luck path killer move would take effect and turn the tribulation into one that the Gu Immortal could easily deal with, at the same time, the power of the tribulation would also be adjusted accordingly.
If the Gu Immortal undergoing tribulation was strong, the luck path killer move would make the calamities and tribulations stronger, so that they could get more dao marks after succeeding.
Conversely, weakening the calamities and tribulations would allow the Gu Immortals to survive and pass the tribulation.
This luck path killer move was Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's newest creation, it contained the profundity of heaven and earth luck and all living being's luck, in the future, it could even fuse with self luck to form a mystical power.
After Giant Sun Immortal Venerable refined most of Northern Plains' luck path dao marks, the Huang Jin tribes of the entire region benefited as a result.
The mystic power of luck path was starting to display itself on a wide scale.
In the future, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable planned to use other luck path killer moves to support the entire Northern Plains.
He would let himself, Longevity Heaven, and the various Huang Jin tribes to have positive variables in anything they did, not just tribulations, they would have good luck.
If the Gu cultivator was strong, they would have a tough time at first and be suppressed, eventually, they would experience a rebound and gain immense benefits.
"However, these luck path killer moves need to be modified and carefully chosen." Giant Sun Immortal Venerable pondered deeply.
He could not use too many of such killer moves.
Killer moves would carve dao marks upon use.
If he used them too much, the entire Northern Plains would turn into a luck path environment.
This had its flaws.
Because of conflicting dao marks, all other paths would be greatly suppressed. This was not beneficial to the growth of Gu Immortals.
Thus, this step was very important and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable needed to find a balance.
"There is no rush in doing this, I need to consider the benefits and costs more deeply." Giant Sun Immortal Venerable thought as he used his investigative killer move again.
This time, he was not inspecting the venerables but the region of Northern Plains instead.
Soon, a vague luck distribution map appeared in Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's mind.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable frowned slightly.
In his first life, there was great effect when he used this killer move. Now, the effect was more vague, especially towards the borders.
"Back then, the five regions were separated and independent, they were not tightly connected. Thus, it was easier to inspect the luck of one region."
"But now, the five regions are united while the two heavens turned into spectral heaven. To achieve the same level of investigative power as my previous life, I will need to refine all of the luck path dao marks in the five regions."
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable reached a conclusion and stopped using his killer move.
He had just used two immortal killer moves in succession, they used a lot of immortal killer move. His immortal killer move storage had reached an alarming level once again.
Next, he would need to rest for some time before refining Northern Plains' dao marks again. Otherwise, he would be in danger if the venerables decide to fight.

Eastern Sea.
At the depths of the sea, in complete darkness.
Fang Yuan's main body concealed his movements as he secretly arrived here.
A huge translucent bubble could be seen in front of him.
"This should be the place." Fang Yuan realized, he stopped moving, closely inspecting it.
This bubble was formed in a special manner, it was a secret underwater world created from many elements, like an underwater volcano's eruption, the surrounding sea water, and the qi tides that swept past previously.
Fire path, earth path, water path, and qi path, the dao marks of these four paths created this isolated utopia.
This place was very well hidden, unless any Gu Immortal saw it personally, it would be hard to detect.
"I'll name this the four paths air bubble." Fang Yuan activated his investigative method and observed the surroundings, before opening his immortal aperture's entrance to let out a Gu Immortal.
This Gu Immortal had pink wavy hair, he was Fang Yuan's dream path clone, Meng Qiu Zhen.
Meng Qiu Zhen's cultivation level was still low, but he was a dream path cultivator.
Because the mission was quite special, Fang Yuan purposely dispatched him. Otherwise, he would stay inside the sovereign immortal aperture most of the time to research dream path, on rare occasions, he went on missions to stabilize and resolve the sovereign immortal aperture's issues.
Fang Yuan used a method to carefully move Meng Qiu Zhen into the air bubble.
After fifteen minutes, Meng Qiu Zhen returned to the sovereign immortal aperture.
He succeeded.
He brought back a wild wisdom Gu!
Wisdom Gu was previously rank nine, but Giant Sun Immortal Venerable made arrangements and gave it to Fang Yuan.
During the fate war, in order to complete Red Lotus' plan, wisdom Gu was used as one of the materials.
As a result, rank nine wisdom Gu ceased to exist.
But under the laws of the Heavenly Dao, life and death coexisted. Under the control of heaven's will, a wild rank six wisdom Gu soon appeared in the five regions.
This wisdom Gu was hidden within the air bubble.
After Fang Yuan stole heavenly secrets, he found the location of many wild Immortal Gu, among them, wisdom Gu was his greatest gain.
Thus, he came here personally to prevent any accidents from happening, ensuring that wisdom Gu would be retrieved successfully.
Everything had happened according to the information in stealing heavenly secret.
Meng Qiu Zhen used his dream path method to easily suppress the rank six wisdom Gu.
Within the air bubble, although there was an underwater volcano and surrounding fish groups, none were able to threaten Meng Qiu Zhen.
As for Fang Yuan, he had too many dao marks, if he stretched his hand into the air bubble, it would likely burst.
Thus, only his clone could accomplish this.
Rank six wisdom Gu was soon refined by Fang Yuan.
Although it was wisdom Gu, Fang Yuan was a great refinement path venerable, refining a mere rank six Immortal Gu was simply too easy.
For a venerable, using rank nine essence to refine wild rank eight Immortal Gu posed no problems at all.
The difficult thing was refining rank nine Immortal Gu.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable took over a hundred years to refine rank nine wisdom Gu in her previous life, while Giant Sun Immortal Venerable failed to refine love Immortal Gu, these were all examples.
"After the fate war, wisdom Gu has returned to my possession again. And this time, it is not tampered with by Giant Sun Immortal Venerable."
"This is a wisdom Gu that belongs solely to me!"
Fang Yuan felt a faint feeling of joy internally.
As for raising wisdom Gu back to rank nine?
Fang Yuan felt that there was no urgency in this.
With stealing heavenly secret killer move, Fang Yuan could greatly improve his wisdom path deductions and modifications, he could also make up for his lack of information collecting methods.
After obtaining wisdom Gu, Fang Yuan returned to his original spot and showed that he was openly refining Eastern Sea's refinement path dao marks. Furthermore, he took breaks quite often to show that his immortal essence was lacking, and that he was in a poor condition.
His divine sense entered the sovereign immortal aperture.
During this period of time, another major project in immortal aperture was completed!
For this project, Fang Yuan used all the immortal material reserves of his subordinates, among which, Eastern Sea's Hua clan had the greatest contribution, they earned a lot of contribution points.
As for the construction of the splendid cloud cover, Fang Yuan succeeded after he chose to use stealing heavenly secret to get an answer from heaven's will.
This splendid cloud cover covered a radius of over ten li, it flew slowly in the mini nine heavens.
Once in a while, it would go from one heaven to another.
The splendid cloud was an immortal material from rank six to nine.
The splendid cloud that Fang Yuan had now was a congregation of many different similar materials, most were rank six, thirty percent were rank seven, less than ten percent was rank eight, while there was barely any rank nine ones.
The food of rank nine heavenly secret Immortal Gu was a large field of splendid clouds.
Fang Yuan was still far from meeting the requirements of one feeding session.
But it was not a concern.
The higher tha Immortal Gu's rank, the less frequent it needed to be fed. Looking at the current situation, there was still a lot of time until the next feeding session.
During this period of time, the splendid cloud cover could grow sufficiently.
There was ample time.
Gu cultivation involved nurture, use, and refinement. The feeding of rank nine Immortal Gu was a test that Fang Yuan had to pass.
He currently had three rank nine Immortal Gu, they were Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus, advance refinement Immortal Gu, and heavenly secret Immortal Gu. The former two were easier to feed, while heavenly secret Immortal Gu was comparatively more troublesome.
But Fang Yuan planned in advance, he had already started to resolve this problem.
In any case, the feeding of rank nine Immortal Gu was not Fang Yuan's biggest problem.
He could settle it by just putting in some hard work.
He was already a venerable who owned Eastern Sea of the five regions, he also has super forces from the two heavens. Also, after his Great Love declaration, the most common business in treasure yellow heaven became his Immortal Gu refinement transactions.
And because the sovereign immortal aperture had immense foundation, even in the entire world, only Longevity Heaven and Heavenly Court could match or beat him.
Fang Yuan had already seen the blue dragon whale's grotto-heaven immortal aperture.
Treasure yellow heaven was a special grotto-heaven meant for Gu Immortal transactions, its own foundation could not compare to the sovereign immortal aperture.
After this period of development, the sovereign immortal aperture was gradually undergoing a qualitative change.
In the past, the sovereign immortal aperture was like a dying patient, it was always close to destruction or breaking down entirely.
But now, the situation did not just stabilize, it was even improving.
There were two main reasons.
One was that the sovereign immortal aperture's dao veins had already been established to a certain level, allowing it to reap the first wave of benefits.
There was already one ring of fire path, wind path, and water path dao veins.
The earth path dao vein that was established first already had three rings.
This had an immense effect to stabilize the sovereign immortal aperture, the effect was immediate.
The sovereign immortal aperture's Gu Immortals could sense clearly that abnormal situations of earth path, fire path, wind path, and water path were decreasing rapidly, they became less common.
The second reason was that more than thirty of Fang Yuan's Gu cultivator subordinates had passed their immortal ascension tribulation!
Immediately, the sovereign immortal aperture gained a huge supply of manpower!
With abundant people, Fang Yuan could easily dispatch Gu Immortals to various locations in the five regions secretly to collect the wild Immortal Gu.
Days later, Gu Immortals started to return. Some of them brought back undiscovered resource points while others brought back wild Immortal Gu.
Among which, there was one wild time path Immortal Gu — Month.
At this point, he had collected all three Immortal Gu, Year, Month, Day.
After getting the newest information, Fang Yuan's subordinates took action with a high success rate.
The results of stealing heavenly secret did not end here.
While Fang Yuan refined dao marks, he also unsealed the truthful floating ice secretly while making modifications to various killer moves.
After stealing heavenly secrets, He obtained a large number of reference materials, his modification of killer moves became very aggressive, among which were compound killer moves.
Fang Yuan even started to construct his combat system on a large scale.
All along, he did not have much gains in this aspect, but with stealing heavenly secret, he obtained a lot of information that had immense value.
Next, as Gu Immortals continued to return, although many succeeded, some returned empty-handed.
Most of the secretive resource points were brought back, but some were damaged or destroyed by natural disasters like earthquakes or tsunamis, there was no point in relocating them.
As for wild Immortal Gu, they were also starting to move elsewhere!
Fang Yuan was not surprised.
Heaven's will could influence people's minds, it could also think. Fang Yuan had always been the target of heaven's will, now that he collected all these secretive resource points and wild Immortal Gu, how could heaven's will not make a response?
Heavenly Dao emphasized balance, it would naturally try to restrict Fang Yuan from getting even stronger.
Thus, this reaction was within Fang Yuan's expectations.
Thus, Fang Yuan arranged for the most important Immortal Gu and resource points to be the ones that were targeted first, allowing him to have great gains.
As for the rest, they had lower value. In comparison, Fang Yuan could give up on them with no significant losses, but he could also try and see if any were salvageable.
Fang Yuan gradually digested his gains from using stealing heavenly secret, in this process, he gained a deeper understanding of this killer move.
"The information from stealing heavenly secret is extremely terrifying, it completely made up for my weakness in information path. However, if I use these information excessively, heaven's will will make adjustments and cause them to become less valuable. Additionally, grotto-heavens like Longevity Heaven cannot be inspected through stealing heavenly secret."
"The various killer moves and information about combat system that I steal are very useful if I want to modify killer moves and make my own combat system. But since heaven's will knows about it, then this information must have already existed somewhere, others might know it too. Furthermore, there are many things that heaven's will does not know, like the secret venerable true inheritances."
"Heaven's will can remember but not modify killer moves on its own. The painting path, human path, and pill path research results that I obtained were all produced through the derivation formation."
Stealing heavenly secret could inspect and save Fang Yuan a lot of time and effort, it had an amazing effect. Regardless, it had its flaws.
Fang Yuan still had a need for information path and wisdom path development.
It was just that his needs were half satisfied now, he was no longer as urgent as before.
Stealing heavenly secret mainly relied on rank nine heavenly secret Gu, once heaven's will found out about the Immortal Gu recipe, it would respond and cause the effect of stealing heavenly secret to become weaker.
Stealing heavenly secret was also dependent on natural inspiration, it could not be used freely.
Fang Yuan had already decided to nurture Gu cultivators in the immortal aperture, he would continue to accumulate more Gu Immortal seeds. Whenever it was necessary, he would make a bunch of time undergo immortal ascension.
-x-X-x-
Inside the sovereign immortal aperture.
Within the secret room, an entire circle of Fang Yuan were sitting.
Or more accurately, a large number of Fang Yuan's clones.
This cultivation secret room was huge, Fang Yuan's clones were all newly formed using human path Gu worms.
Among them, the Gu Master level ones were doctor, pill refiner, constable, and craftsman. There were also rank six Gu Immortal level ones like shadow puppet, talented girl, soldier, sergeant, musician, thief, farmer, dancer, and blacksmith.
Indeed, the human path research results that the ten children of human path gained from entering the derivation formation were all obtained by Fang Yuan.
After that, he rushed to refine all these Gu!
As long as he had the recipe, with Fang Yuan's refinement path attainment, refining these low ranked Immortal Gu was very easy.
This resulted in the ten children of human path failing to create their vital immortal Gu during their immortal ascension.
During this period of time, Fang Yuan's clones had been in closed cultivation, comprehending human path and having their respective insights.
"Although these clones are low in rank, there are exceptional aspects when compared to Spectral Soul Demon Venerable's method."
"For example, they only need a small investment to create. Spectral Soul's Shadow Sect clones needed to cultivate themselves and start from zero. But these clones could instantly gain Gu master or Gu Immortal level strength by just using human path Gu worms."
The clones formed from human path Gu worms had apertures and immortal apertures for Gu Masters and Gu Immortals respectively.
But be it aperture or immortal essence, neither could produce primeval essence or immortal essence, they could only store essence.
The human path clones were also unable to cultivate to increase their strength.
The rank of the Gu worm decided the strength of the clone.
But the human path clones would retain the main body's attainment levels.
The human path clones mainly cultivated human path with other paths on the side. For example, musician clone cultivated human path with sound path on the side. Farmer clone cultivated human path with wood path and earth path on the side. Shadow puppet clone cultivated human path with transformation path and shadow path on the side...
All in all, these clones were not useful to Fang Yuan.
They were too weak, even the highest ranked one was only rank six.
The thing that both Fang Yuan and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable agreed with was that pill refiner clone had the greatest value.
This clone cultivated human path with refinement path and pill path on the side.
Although there were only rank one to five pill refiner Gu Masters, they would create a terrifying impact on the entire Gu Master world!
If Fang Yuan's subordinates did not undergo immortal ascension at this time, these human path clones might still be useful. Now, they were of little value to Fang Yuan.
They were even an important evidence that could expose obscured heavenly secret!
Thinking about it, Fang Yuan turned these human path clones back into their respective Gu worms.
They were similar to Fang Yuan's sovereign immortal body but quite different.
They could interchange between Gu worm and human forms, but Fang Yuan's sovereign immortal body was fixed at human form with the requirement to eat the Gu worm's food.
But in any case, a normal person needed to eat at set intervals as well.
"I'll leave thief Gu behind." Thinking so, Fang Yuan willed at the next moment as most of the Gu worms in the secret room self-detonated!
Central Continent.
In the deepest part of star array calculation formation.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was inspecting a secluded domain of heaven and earth that was inside.
This secluded domain looked like a cage or a lantern, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable had used it in Crazed Demon Cave to fight against the other venerables.
This was the wisdom path secluded domain — Mental Domain!
It was recorded in <
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable placed Mental Domain in the star array calculation formation and used the power of the formation to secretly absorb emotions.
All sorts of negative emotions in the Central Continent's ten great ancient sects were absorbed into the Mental Domain.
With this method, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable managed to leave only positive emotions in the countless lifeforms of Central Continent towards Heavenly Court and the ten great ancient sects.
This caused Central Continent's unity to rise to a new level!
"Mental Domain needs to store emotions, the more emotions there are, the stronger this secluded domain of heaven and earth becomes. But it needs to be controlled too."
"If there are too much emotions stored, the Mental Domain will instead go too far and have a reverse effect."
"Like what is recorded in <
"It is a pity that I only have calm Gu but not fortitude Gu. Thus, there is an obvious limit to the amount of emotions the Mental Domain can store."
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable needed to be careful when activating it, she could not afford to expose this to the other venerables and end up with trouble.
At that time, even someone who lacked immortal essence like Fang Yuan would want to extort Star Constellation Immortal Venerable.
This was the trick that Star Constellation Immortal Venerable played when creating the star array calculation formation, she managed to hide it from the two venerables. After all, they could only see the general information of the star array calculation formation.
After her inspection, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable received some good news.
"Oh? Among the ten children of human path, someone has already refined musician Gu to an Immortal Gu?"
"Good."
"It seems that the failed attempts from earlier was due to the obstruction of heaven's will. The refinement of Immortal Gu during the ascension tribulation is essentially using heaven's will to help one refine Gu."
"Heaven's will was unwilling to help likely because these are human path Gu worms."
"But afterwards, the refinement attempt done by a person succeeded!"
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable put her heart at ease.
Earlier, when she found that the ten children of human path had all failed, she felt suspicious.
The possibilities included having traitors in Heavenly Court, a problem with the derivation formation, the hidden methods of the other venerables in Heavenly Court, or even because information was leaked by heaven's will.
After learning of this success, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's suspicions were mostly lifted.
Half a day later, the first batch of Gu Immortals chosen from Central Continent's ten great ancient sects gathered within the star array calculation formation.
Immortal killer move — Endless Learning!
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable activated this killer move.
The killer move had a light-blue radiance that spread within the star array calculation formation.
In a certain space within the formation, the Gu Immortals were ready.
"It's coming." Someone muttered with an excited expression.
Everyone was stirred.
Soon, the immortals' expressions turned solemn as they were immersed in the indescribable profundity of the Great Dao.
With the effect of the killer move, the immortals' cultivation paths' attainment level rose gradually!
As time passed, after reaching their limit, some Gu Immortals started to develop hallucinations.
At this time, the star array calculation formation would activate and send these Gu Immortals to another part of the formation to rest.
Endless learning was a human path killing intent, it used Book Mountain and learning Gu as the cores, allowing the Gu cultivator to produce true meaning and absorb it to raise their attainment levels.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable had used this move in Crazed Demon Cave before, she was now using it on the Central Continent's ten great ancient sects' Gu Immortals. Her intention to nurture them was more sincere now.
The gains of the Gu Immortals would depend on their own talent, aptitude, comprehension, and personal experiences.
"Unimaginable, to think that there is such a method in the world to directly raise attainment level!"
"This move was used by Lady Star Constellation Immortal Venerable personally, of course it is amazing, she can achieve the impossible!"
"Rumor has it that dream realms can raise the Gu cultivator's attainment level. In my opinion, Lady Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's method has completely surpassed the dangerous method of dream path."
"Dream realm explorations are very dangerous but the attainment level gained can potentially be endless. As for Lady Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's human path killing move, our gains will depend on ourselves. It can only help us to produce true meaning, after using it once, we will need to accumulate a lot of experience and foundation, otherwise, we will not have much gains next time!"
The immortals slowly break out of the hallucinations and woke up as they started conversing.
Soon, the immortals flew out of the star array calculation formation.
Three stayed and did not leave yet.
Among them, there was Heaven's Envy Manor's Gu Immortal, Tan Ku, he went to find Ancient Soul Sect's Yang Feng and Spirit Butterfly Valley's Dian Pu.
After some discussion, Tan Ku used his own Immortal Gu to exchange for Yang Feng's resources, he then used Yang Feng's immortal materials to exchange for Dian Pu's other Immortal Gu.
After the transaction, all three side got what they wanted, they were satisfied.
"Thanks to the star array calculation formation, it can understand what we need and help us to undergo optimal transactions. Otherwise, how can we know of each other's needs so clearly?" Dian Pu sighed.
At this moment, all three immortals benefited from the star array calculation formation, they understood its usefulness.
Ever since the star array calculation formation collected information of the Gu Immortals, such situations became more common among the Central Continent's ten great ancient sects' Gu Immortals.
Thus, even the Gu Immortals of the smaller sects were interested, they wanted to report their own information to the star array calculation formation.
The formation had the ability to distribute overall resources more efficiently in Central Continent by just focusing on transaction between Gu Immortals.
Undeniably, this would promote the growth of Central Continent and raise its overall strength.
The three immortals did not have a close relationship before, but after the transaction, they became closer.
On the way back, they talked about the recently popular topic among Central Continent's Gu Masters, human path.
During this period of time, human path cultivation had become a rising trend for the lower rank Gu Masters in Central Continent.
This was clearly backed by the ten great ancient sects who were tasked by Heavenly Court to support this trend.
"It seems that Heavenly Court has decided to develop human path."
"That's right, our sects chose the ten children of human path who have all become Gu Immortals now. Heavenly Court has the top tier research results of human path, now is the time for them to promote it widely."
"I think that it is too rushed, but since Star Constellation Immortal Venerable made such a decision, there must be a flaw in my logic."
"It is a pity that our path is already set, converting to human path is too costly."
"Friend Tan Ku, you are smiling. Do you have a solution to this?"
"I only made the Gu Immortal seeds in my immortal aperture cultivate human path."
"Haha, I did that too."
Central Continent's Gu Immortals were gradually feeling the advantages of the star array calculation formation, they also showed a consensus regarding the prospects of human path.
However, Tan Ku still did not know this now.
Although his action was the same as any other Gu Immortals, one small character who he supported would rise to become a legend in the future!
