"Quick, cultivate this!" Within Tan Ku's immortal aperture, a middle aged rank five Gu Master was handing out a cultivation method to Wang Xiao Er.
"Foster father, what is this?" Wang Xiao Er asked in confusion.
Wang Xiao Er had his own secret.
He was not of Fang clan's bloodline, he was a captive of Fang Dong Xi. But after Fang Dong Xi died in battle, his immortal aperture was invaded by Xiao Ye Hu, causing a huge commotion.
Using the opportunity, Wang Xiao Er escaped for his life and mixed in with this branch of Fang Dong Xi's descendants.
Afterwards, they were sold in treasure yellow heaven.
Tan Ku was one of the Gu Immortals who bought these human slaves, within the batch of Fang clansmen that he bought, there was Wang Xiao Er.
Thus, Wang Xiao Er started his new life in Tan Ku's immortal aperture.
Naturally, Tan Ku's immortal aperture had Tan clan's bloodline. Thus, the Fang clansmen all had low status, they were slaves.
But even among slaves, there was a difference in status.
For example, the middle aged Gu Master in front of Wang Xiao Er.
He had a rather pitiful life, when Fang Dong Xi's immortal aperture was in a commotion, his whole family died. The middle aged Gu Master became disheartened and did not want to marry anyone else. After seeing the lonely Wang Xiao Er who was in the same plight as him, he felt that this young man resembled his son and took him in as a foster son.
After all, in the eyes of the middle aged Gu Master, Wang Xiao Er was also a Fang clan descendant.
The middle aged Gu Master knocked Wang Xiao Er's head and laughed as he scolded: "What are you suspicious about? Do you think I'll harm you?"
"I'll tell you the truth, the Gu Immortals who bought us are from Central Continent."
"He bought us because he took an interest in our aptitude."
"Now, he has handed down a human path cultivation method. If we can cultivate it successfully, we will be able to raise our status. In the future, we may even become Gu Immortals."
Wang Xiao Er listened in a dumbfound manner.
But soon, he stated his suspicions: "If this is such a precious cultivation method, why is the Central Continent Gu Immortal not cultivating it himself? Why isn't he leaving it for his own descendants but us instead?"
The middle aged Gu Master clearly knew many Gu Immortal secrets, he had a broad vision. He explained: "Gu Immortals cultivate their own path, with human path being one of the possibilities. Since this Gu Immortal has already become immortal, he cannot cultivate human path anymore."
"Furthermore, not everyone has the aptitude to become an immortal."
"Human path has just started developing, Central Continent's Gu Immortals are handing out these methods as a trial. Thus, for his own genius descendants, he will definitely leave a portion of the essence of his own cultivation method for them. The remaining Tan clansmen and us will cultivate human path."
"Human path is really underdeveloped, in our former blessed land, I've never even heard of it! But we have no choice now, if we don't cultivate, we won't even have any opportunity!"
"Xiao Er, you will live your life in here, those Tan clansmen will step on you and command you like a slave. Are you willing to live like this?"
Wang Xiao Er quickly shook his head and said solemn: "Foster father, please teach me the method, I will cultivate!"
Wang Xiao Er obtained a large amount of human path information, it was helpful in raising his understanding of human path. There were also several human path Gu worms, they were the foundation for starting his human path cultivation.
After the middle aged Gu Master taught Wang Xiao Er some lessons, the latter started to cultivate on his own.
On this night, Wang Xiao Er was so excited he could not sleep, he decided to cultivate instead.
But an Immortal Gu was accidentally awakened by him in this situation!
The Immortal Gu's will took the initiative and communicated with Wang Xiao Er as he felt very surprised: "Self Gu?!"
Self Gu was so small and had hidden itself within Wang Xiao Er's body, nobody else had sensed it.
He remembered that this was a famous legendary Gu in <
<
After falling into the water of the River of Time, Ren Zu and the other two woke up in shock.
The three immediately climb up to a nearby floating ice, although it was only a short time, they had already grown old.
"Time Gu is hidden within the River of Time, our lifespan will be washed away by the river water." Great Strength True Martial sighed.
Ren Zu felt regretful: "Constantly encountering good situations is actually a bad thing, it will create a huge problem! It is not good to be too happy or constantly happy, it can make people indulge in the present and forget about time as they get immersed entirely."
But Carefree Wisdom Heart said with a tone of joy: "Quick, look at your heart!"
The three of them inspected their inner heart, they saw that many accumulated emotions had been washed away earlier when they fell into the river.
This discovery made Ren Zu and the other two feel very happy.
Next, they continued to travel on the floating ice.
Whenever they encountered a bad situation and felt negative emotions, they would put their heart into the river water to wash it: "These bad situations will pass eventually."
Their negative emotions faded away with time.
Whenever they encountered a good situation and felt immersed in joy, they would put their heart into the river water to wash it: "These good situations will pass eventually."
Their positive emotions also weakened over time, preventing them from feeling indulgent.
Cognition Gu saw that the three of them were constantly washing their hearts, it could not help but remind them: "Time has never healed the wounds of the heart, except that your hearts have grown old. The worst thing is not your body growing old but your hearts aging. Stop washing them."
Ren Zu and the other two heard these words and quickly stopped their actions.
But without washing the hearts, their speed fell again.
"Let me help you." At this time, a Gu worm flew over and landed on Ren Zu.
Ren Zu and the other two saw this Gu worm and became very happy.
It was familial emotion Gu.
With the help of familial emotion Gu, Ren Zu and the other two spread their emotions around, the joy of one person was split among three, the sorrow of one person was also split into three.
Using familial emotion, Ren Zu and the other two consoled each other and carried each other's burden, they moved quickly and firmly.
But good times did not last.
More and more emotions accumulated in their hearts, their hearts became tired and gradually got hurt after being unable to sustain it any longer.
Deep emotions hurt the heart.
The situation soon aggravated, because their hearts were severely injured, they could not take in more emotions.
At this time, Carefree Wisdom Heart took out a cage and held it in her hand: "This is the Mental Domain that I created, place all your emotions in here."
Ren Zu and Great Strength True Martial did as she said.
They put their emotions into the Mental Domain.
Immediately, the truthful floating ice revealed its original appearance in front of the three.
They were simply pieces of floating ice, the three felt a different sensation towards it now.
The emotions of people did not concern others, only their own mental state mattered.
"What is this?" Carefree Wisdom Heart soon found a Gu worm in the floating ice.
The Gu worm answered: "I am calm Gu."
The truth was icy cold, this was the attitude that one should have when facing situations.
Ren Zu and the other two finally reached the center of the truthful floating ice.
But they did not find self Gu.
"So self Gu is not here." Ren Zu was very disappointed.
Initially, people would often think that they were the center of all situations, but that was not true.
At the center of the truthful floating ice, there was no self Gu, but three other Gu instead.
They were rules Gu, regulation Gu, and practice Gu.
Rules and regulation Gu had been with Ren Zu for a long time, after Ren Zu's heart was eaten by the Predicament, they thought that he died and left him.
They came here to create truthful floating ice along with practice Gu.
All sorts of situations were bound by the rules and regulation of heaven and earth.
The three Gu continued to create truthful floating ice like this, afterwards, under the effect of time Gu, these floating ice flowed away and sank.
Rules and regulation Gu saw Ren Zu and felt surprised: "Oh human, so you did not die."
Ren Zu quickly asked them on how he could find self Gu.
Rules and regulation Gu pointed at practice Gu and said in unison: "It can help you!"
Practice Gu replied: "Oh human, you have gone through too many situations. After such a long time, you have changed a lot. Self Gu is the same, even if it is right before you, it will feel very foreign now, you cannot recognize it."
"What can I do?" Ren Zu was troubled.
"This is simple." Practice Gu laughed: "Can't you just undergo the situation of 'recognizing yourself'?"
"That's right!" Ren Zu and the other two realized at once.
Practice Gu continued: "For a human, recognizing yourself is the most important and also most difficult thing in the world. Great Strength True Martial, you are strong and have ability, if we work together, the chance of success is very high."
Ability Gu laughed and said: "Undergoing situations can make me stronger."
Carefree Wisdom Heart supported this, she gave serious Gu to Great Strength True Martial.
Great Strength True Martial started to undergo situations alongside practice Gu.
They first created a piece of floating ice that was as small as a ball. It surrounded Great Strength True Martial and practice Gu as a light membrane appeared around the ice ball.
Ren Zu and Carefree Wisdom Heart stood on top of the ice ball as they flowed away, eventually encountering year Gu.
"Is this self Gu?" Ren Zu asked.
Great Strength True Martial replied: "No, self Gu is smaller than it."
They continued to undergo situations within the ice ball as ability Gu got stronger, the floating ice also became larger as a water membrane appeared around the periphery.
While floating, Ren Zu saw month Gu.
"Is this self Gu?" Ren Zu asked.
Great Strength True Martial replied: "No, self Gu is smaller than it."
Great Strength True Martial and practice Gu continued working hard, ability Gu got stronger and made this floating ice even bigger, the periphery of the ice ball was covered in a stone membrane.
Ren Zu saw day Gu.
"Is this self Gu?" Ren Zu asked.
Great Strength True Martial replied: "No, self Gu is smaller than it."
The stronger the ability, the more one would find that they were small and insignificant.
Eventually, the floating ice reached its biggest size, the periphery was covered by a crystal membrane. Ren Zu and the other two floated on the ice ball and eventually found self Gu.
"Self Gu is actually so small." Ren Zu was internally shaken.
Cognition Gu sighed: "In the eyes of heaven and earth, in the eyes of mankind, a single self Gu is very small and insignificant."
-x-X-x-
Late at night.
Wang Xiao Er looked at the <
"Foster father's human path cultivation method is not wrong at all. <
"I've just noticed that in the section regarding self Gu, it actually hints the different levels of each Gu Master cultivation rank. Light membrane, water membrane, stone membrane, and crystal membrane!"
"Ren Zu and the other two met the time path Gu, Year, Month, and Day, in the River of Time. Does this mean that Gu Master cultivation takes a long time to gradually accumulate accomplishments?"
"I am still too ignorant now, this is all that I can see."
"The human path cultivation method states that the most outstanding cultivators in history,the venerables, have all comprehended something from <
"Even though I cannot match them now, I still have an extraordinary hope!"
"Self Gu..."
"It has been hiding in my body all along, the moment I started my human path cultivation, I found it. This must be a human path Immortal Gu!"
"Among the various Gu worms mentioned in <
"Hahaha, with this Immortal Gu, human path is truly the most suitable path for me!"
"It is definitely the right choice to cultivate human path."
At almost the same time.
In the sovereign immortal aperture, Mini Eastern Sea.
"Haha." Mermaid Gu Immortal Tang Qiong could not help but laugh: "It was definitely the right choice for our entire race to join Fang Yuan and live in the sovereign immortal aperture."
Her excitement could not be concealed.
There was a total of three merman female immortals, Fang Yuan had brought them in earlier. After bringing a group of mermen to settle down here, they started to live in the sovereign immortal aperture.
The three merman female immortals had a clear distribution of jobs, Yu Zi was mostly in charge of completing missions and earning contribution points. Lian Ke Xin was in charge of external relations, she communicated with the other races and forces. Tang Qiong was in charge of defending the merman tribe's territory.
After all, abnormal situations often occurred in the sovereign immortal aperture. The territory of the various forces had at least one Gu Immortal defending it at all times for safety.
Tang Qiong had just received orders from Fang Yuan, there was a piece of information that was rather outstanding.
From now on, Fang Yuan would put in more effort to support the well-performing descendants of the various tribes and forces. He would spent a huge sum to aid their cultivation and promote them to become Gu Immortal seeds.
To achieve this, Fang Yuan even gave orders to the Gu Immortals in charge of the various factions.
Each other, the respective forces had to nurture a certain number of Gu Immortal seeds.
If they reached the target, they would receive contribution points.
Otherwise, they would be punished.
"Lord Alliance Leader is not just impartial and fair, he also has a heart of benevolence. He is helping us variant humans to nurture more Gu Masters by investing such a huge sum of resources. Even among the past venerables, none had ever shown such love to us variant humans like Lord Fang Yuan! Even Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable only helped some of our tribes, it cannot compare to Lord Fang Yuan."
Thinking of this, tears appeared in Tang Qiong's eyes.
The reason why Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable helped the variant humans was because he could not bear seeing them face the threat of extinction.
But Fang Yuan was different.
Fang Yuan did not just give the variant humans a fair and relatively safe environment to live in without ostracism, he even gave them aid in the form of resources so that they could grow stronger.
This was an unprecedented situation.
Tang Qiong had gone through a lot of ordeals when she managed the Merman Imperial Court, they were ostracized and suppressed by various forces. As a merman Gu Immortal, she had lived a life of being bullied and overwhelmed with pressure.
Now, inside the sovereign immortal aperture, she felt truly free and happy.
The work she did in the sovereign immortal aperture was far more tiring than being in Eastern Sea, she often had to work her hardest and not rest for more than ten days in a row, along with the threat of her liver exploding.
But now, Tang Qiong was feeling increasingly fond of this place, she loved this world and treasured this sea area!
Because here, there was fairness and equality that the five regions lacked.
Because here, there was abundant hope.
because here, as long as one worked hard and was willing to undergo hardship, they will be rewarded based on effort.
Because here, one could feel that they were growing and improving at an observable rate, their own tribe or force was also developing rapidly.
Tang Qiong's divine sense Gu entered the information path mortal Gu again, she reread the information that she had already looked through several times.
Fang Yuan's orders greatly encouraged the procreation of the various forces. The more children they had, the more rewards they would receive.
Regarding the increase in population, Fang Yuan had a clear direction.
The vast amount of cultivation resources would be handed down to the Gu Immortals of the various factions and forces in the next few days.
Among which, there were large quantities of relic Gu, unprocessed jade Gu, wood origin Gu, water source Gu, man triumphing heaven Gu and others.
Relic Gu could raise the cultivation of a Gu Master by a small realm, while precious mortal Gu like unprocessed jade Gu could raise the Gu Master's aptitude!
In essence, they were just carving a certain path's dao marks on the Gu Master's bodies.
Unprocessed jade Gu carved earth path dao marks, it was suitable for raising the aptitude of rockman Gu Masters.
Wood origin Gu suited minimen, water source Gu suited mermen, while man triumphing heaven Gu suited purebred humans without Gu Master aptitude, it could forcefully awaken their aperture.
"With these resources, our tribe can finally see hope in a bright future."
"There has never been a venerable like Lord Fang Yuan, he truly cares about his people. No matter how ordinary or common these people are, his love is boundless like the sun while soothing like the wind, enveloping everyone."
"He is truly worthy of being Great Love Immortal Venerable! It is my greatest fortune to be on his side."
Thinking of this, Tang Qiong felt very excited as tears flowed down her face.
Fang Yuan, who was idolized by Tang Qiong, had just used obscured heavenly secret once again.
It could not be helped.
The gains from stealing heavenly secret were too bountiful.
Even now, there were still Gu Immortals who were returning from Eastern Sea, Western Desert, and Southern Border, bringing back cultivation resources secretly.
The most valuable things were the information of the five regions, Fang Yuan's modified killer moves, and the establishment of his combat system.
Everything caused his luck to grow immensely again.
Thus, Fang Yuan had to activate obscured heavenly secret again to fortify the concealment effect.
During this period of time, Fang Yuan did not refine his fourth rank nine Immortal Gu.
On the surface, he was refining Eastern Sea's refinement path dao marks intermittently, but in secret, he was digesting the gains of stealing heavenly secret and deducing many things. As for the truthful floating ice, although it was the most important thing earlier, it was no longer his focus now.
The initial benefit of unsealing the truthful floating ice was already obtained, now, the gains had evidently fallen.
This was reflected upon Fang Yuan's own luck as well.
Fang Yuan used luck inspection and only managed to see a portion of it, but from this portion, he could see many things that were useful to his deductions.
Everything involving rank nine heavenly secret Gu was Fang Yuan's greatest secret. This involved obscured heavenly secret, stealing heavenly secret, and others.
Because of stealing heavenly secret, Fang Yuan started to target those mortals in the immortal aperture.
He worked at lightning speed, after understanding the value of these mortals, he decided to nurture them with his full support.
Tang Qiong and the rest did not know the truth.
Fang Yuan had abundant immortal materials in his storage, mortal materials were more lacking in comparison.
The sovereign immortal aperture itself produced a lot of mortal materials on a large scale, but there were a lot of materials needed to nurture mortals. The sovereign immortal aperture had to use treasure yellow heaven to undergo various transactions and satisfy this need.
The plan was already established while cultivation resources were not an issue, but Fang Yuan wanted to make this even better.
He calculated and found that he had many methods that could be used to nurture these mortal Gu Masters.
For example, blood skull Gu, bone flesh unity Gu, and guts Gu, as well as the rank one to six version of second aperture Gu.
Aptitude was very important to a Gu Master.
Back then, Fang Yuan had used blood skull Gu to slaughter his clan and obtained A grade aptitude.
The A grade aptitude gave him immense help in his future cultivation journey.
At the same time, A grade aptitude meant a higher chance at becoming a Gu Immortal seed than B or C grade aptitude. If one had poor aptitude, rank three or four would be their limit, how could they even reach rank five?
"Blood skull Gu's ability to raise aptitude is even more outstanding than unprocessed jade Gu, wood origin Gu, water source Gu, and polished gold Gu. Maybe I can use blood skull Gu to undergo a massive slaughter before reviving them using Human Sea and slaughtering them again. In that case, I can create a large number of A grade aptitude Gu Masters."
A terrifying cultivation plan emerged in Fang Yuan's mind.
He thought of bone flesh unity Gu.
This Gu was very useful to Fang Yuan when he was still a Gu Master.
It could help to elevate primeval essence for cultivation, not only could Fang Yuan use it to advance a small realm, he could even tackle the boundaries to cross a cultivation rank!
It was truly useful.
"But to refine this Gu, I will need twins."
"This is a little troublesome."
Fang Yuan not only needed a few hundred bone flesh unity Gu, he needed a vast number of them and scattered them across the sovereign immortal aperture. In that case, in the future, there would be many new Gu Immortal seeds.
"I do not have the time to focus on my current human soul cultivation method, my previous attempt has also bore little fruit. Thus, I can use guts Gu to nurture Gu Immortal seeds, a stronger soul is very useful to them."
"As for second aperture Gu, it is only icing on the cake."
Fang Yuan would not use rank six second aperture Immortal Gu to nurture them, at most, he would use rank one to five versions of them.
Right now, second aperture Gu was confirmed to be a heaven path Gu worm.
Rank six second aperture Gu used lifespan Gu as the material, while lifespan Gu was the most classic heaven path Gu worm, it contained heaven path dao marks.
Rank nine sovereign immortal fetus Gu used the ten extreme physiques as the Gu material, it was 'immortal fetus' instead of 'immortal aperture', thus it was a human path Immortal Gu.
Fang Yuan made a conclusion, he needed to amass Gu Immortal seeds by first increasing the population.
Whether they were variant humans or humans did not matter.
Fang Yuan did not intend to take in external people, as for Gu Immortal seeds, it would be better for the sovereign immortal aperture to nurture them, they were more loyal after all. Variant humans were the most loyal to him.
Fang Yuan felt more assured with these variant humans.
With a higher population, the number of Gu Masters would also rise. But to create Gu Immortal seeds, one needed to raise the Gu Master's aptitude first.
This meant that mortals did not just need to give birth more often, they also needed to create more siblings and blood-related kin for Fang Yuan to slaughter in the future.
It would be best if they were twins.
That way, while slaughtering them, he could also refine them into bone flesh unity Gu.
"I need more twins..." Fang Yuan thought about it and muttered: "I need to look for Giant Sun Immortal Venerable. Among the venerables, he is most skilled at having children!"
-x-X-x-
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had a strange expression.
Just earlier, a transaction between him and Heaven Refining Demon Venerable was held.
Both sides obtained what they wanted.
But...
"Fang Yuan has needs for childbirth, what is he planning?"
This transaction made Giant Sun Immortal Venerable quite suspicious.
But he knew that because of dao marks, Gu Immortal found it hard to give birth. And in terms of having children, among the venerables, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable was the most experienced.
Among the venerables, which other person had more children than Giant Sun Immortal Venerable?
Back then, to raise more children, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable searched the world for countless beauties, creating his five harem palaces!
"If Fang Yuan did not suddenly have this need, we would not have done this transaction. Sigh... to think that I would benefit now because of you, Zhu Zhu."
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable muttered a name as the memories of a scene emerged in the depths of his heart.
Northern Plains.
In a temporary tribe, tents were set up.
The flap of an old and tattered tent was pulled side as middle-aged Giant Sun barged in, shouting: "Zhu Zhu, what Gu did you secretly use on me again?"
Middle-aged Giant Sun had a bare chest that exposed his manly stature, but there was a pig head resting on his shoulders.
Zhu Zhu saw him and laughed: "It worked!"
Middle-aged Giant Sun was furious: "Zhu Zhu, I was discussing matters with the tribe elders earlier when this happened. You will turn me into the laughing stock of the tribe."
Zhu Zhu sighed: "Husband, I apologize. But I just want a child."
Middle-aged Giant Sun was stunned before becoming dejected, his anger faded away: "It's my fault for being useless."
"No, it is my issue. Technically, I have half a Gu Immortal's body. It is my fault!" Zhu Zhu stood before Giant Sun as she held his pig head, saying with love and affection: "This time, I used transformation path Gu."
"Do you know? This is called sowing pig. It is an amazing wild beast that has gone extinct. The male pig would eat in autumn and get fat to spit out a type of crystal flower. When spring arrives, the crystal flower will bloom and the female pig will eat it to nurture new life in its body."
Middle-aged Giant Sun's eyes shone: "It is so effective?"
Zhu Zhu smiled and pulled his hand, dragging him into bed: "Let's go."
Middle-aged Giant Sun laughed loudly as he pounced at Zhu Zhu.
At the top of their tent, there was a flag.
At this moment, the flag started waving around intensely like the wind was blowing.
But after just a few breaths of time, the flag went motionless.
Within the tent, Giant Sun spoke in a guilty tone: "Sorry, Zhu Zhu, I can't continue anymore."
Zhu Zhu smiled: "Don't worry, I have my methods."
Next, Giant Sun let out a soft growl as the tent started to shake again like a hurricane was blowing.
This time, he lasted for over ten breaths of time.
The commotion in the tent stopped again.
Giant Sun sighed: "Sorry, I can't continue anymore."
Zhu Zhu smiled and said: "Don't worry, watch this."
For the third time, the tent shook intensely like there was a storm.
But this storm only lasted for around twenty breaths of time before stopping.
Giant Sun breathed roughly as he said: "Sorry, I really can't continue anymore."
Zhu Zhu was still smiling: "Don't worry, I still have some methods left."
"Wait, wait." Giant Sun said weakly: "I am amazed that you have so many methods, but let me rest, let me rest..."
Zhu Zhu replied humbly: "Although I have many methods, the results are not good. Sigh... the most useful method can only come from Ren Zu, all of the humans of the five regions and two heavens are descendants of Ren Zu!"
Giant Sun immediately patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, one day, I will comprehend Ren Zu's method and we will have countless descendants!"
His recollection ended here.
A deep feeling of disappointment lingered in Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's heart.
In his previous life, he had already grasped such a method, otherwise, how could he have so many descendants?
It was just that he could not use this method with Zhu Zhu anymore.
He could never see her again.
His children were also not of her bloodline.
After collecting his thoughts, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's expression turned calm and cool again.
He inspected the gains from this transaction, he had obtained a lot of blood path research results from Fang Yuan.
Although he had been been secretly making deductions on blood path, Fang Yuan's research results still saved him a lot of time and energy.
Other than that, there were five blood path Immortal Gu!
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable refined them into his own and tossed them into Blood Sea.
"Blood Sea..." Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's gaze pierced through the ground of Longevity Heaven, gazing into Blood Sea.
Even if rank nine light Gu was repaired, it was not suitable for Giant Sun Immortal Venerable.
However, although he had no rank nine Immortal Gu, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable could use Blood Sea as a replacement temporarily.
There were four different levels when it came to dao mark density: dao marks that were scattered all over the world, resource points that were created when dao marks were arranged in a certain manner, the apex of resource points—secluded domains of heaven and earth, as well as the essence of heaven and earth—Gu.
A secluded domain of heaven and earth was considered half a rank nine Immortal Gu.
When Gu Immortals use immortal materials to form killer moves or immortal formations, the materials were consumable and could not have a stable form, thus, the dao marks were lost after usage.
But a secluded domain of heaven and earth could be used as a long term stable core to form killer moves.
Fang Yuan's reverse flow protection seal and Dang Hun Luo Po Seal were such examples.
"Star Constellation Immortal Venerable has Mental Domain, while Fang Yuan may have Refinement Sea, this Blood Sea is the foundation that I need to resist them!"
Back then, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had worked with Long Hair Ancestor to refine Gu, he knew about this grand plan of Long Hair Ancestor's.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable felt that for this period of time, refining natural dao marks of heaven and earth was the most important thing. Trying to get a rank nine Immortal Gu that was suitable for himself was not realistic. In this case, a secluded domain of heaven and earth was the best substitute.
"Among the venerables, the one who has the highest hope of getting a rank nine Immortal Gu is Fang Yuan. In terms of potential, he is also the highest."
"Thankfully, he has insufficient immortal essence and is unable to refine rank nine Immortal Gu."
"Once he starts refining Gu, he will expose his greatest weakness. At that time, I will work with Star Constellation Immortal Venerable to stop him!"
"If Fang Yuan is able to refine any refinement path rank nine Immortal Gu, then he will have an easier time refining other rank nine Immortal Gu in the future. This will snowball into an unstoppable advantage at an increasing speed."
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable reminded himself of the fact.
Blood Sea surged with huge waves that ebbed and flowed, it was gradually expanding in size.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable nodded to himself: "With five more blood path Immortal Gu, the rate at which Blood Sea is forming is increasing. In half a year, it will be completed!"
Blood Sea was currently incomplete.
Although a secluded domain of heaven and earth could be used as the core of a killer move, it was quite a wasteful thing to do as the secluded domain itself would be expended to a huge extent.
For example, Fang Yuan's previously incomplete Refinement Sea and Human Sea (although Human Sea was complete, only the whole Human Mountain and Sea was considered a secluded domain).
"Oh?" Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's expression changed, an intense luck path intuition emerged in his heart.
The last time he had such a feeling, he revived Light Emperor.
The revival of Light Emperor caused him to gain rank nine light Gu.
Now?
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable was feeling expectant.
Although reviving another person now would expend the incomplete Blood Sea, he did not hesitate as he used the immortal killer move once again — Destined Birth Through Luck.
Swish swish swish!
Blood Sea surged and created a huge wave that was tens of feet tall.
Blood Sea was rapidly expended as a huge whirlpool was formed again.
After the flickering of shadow and light, a rank seven Gu Immortal emerged from within.
"Who is this?" Yao Huang did not recognize the person.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's expectations rose again. The reason was that this Gu Immortal's revival expended even more immortal essence and portion of the Blood Sea than Light Emperor.
But he was just a rank seven water path Gu Immortal.
"Oh, are you Fei Wu?" Yao Huang stared for some time before shouting out loud.
"Fei tribe's final first supreme elder — Fei Wu[1. Same pronunciation as trash/worthless.]?" Giant Sun Immortal Venerable frowned.
He remembered now.
Fei tribe was once a super force in Northern Plains, it had genuine Huang Jin bloodline.
Fei tribe's first generation ancestor was not Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's son but someone who was many generations below. But Fei tribe was still very famous in history.
Or rather, infamous.
Fei tribe was a Huang Jin super tribe that ruined itself.
Fei Wu was their final first supreme elder, he was undeniably responsible for their destruction.
Many people felt that he was incapable and too greedy, he let down the entire Fei tribe and caused their destruction.
When he was the first supreme elder, he expended Fei tribe's vast amount of resources and almost caused them to go broke. As a result, the other Fei tribe Gu Immortals lacked cultivation resources and grew slowly, this resulted in their internal conflict.
The external world also gave Fei tribe a lot of pressure.
But Fei Wu did not handle this well, he had always shown a weak attitude to the outside world.
In order to satisfy his own needs, Fei Wu even gave up many resource points that Fei tribe owned. The result was that his battle did not seem to rise.
Fei Wu's performance disappointed everyone, in the end, he even led Fei tribe to excavate and develop in one of Northern Plains' ten great fierce areas. In the end, he triggered a terrifying beast tide and caused Fei tribe's territory to be engulfed, even their headquarters was taken down. Most of their Gu Immortals died in the beast tide, while the remaining ones were quickly annexed and taken in by the other Huang Jin tribes.
After the beast tide was over, Fei tribe was wiped out while Fei Wu died pitifully inside the fierce area. Their remaining territory was also taken by the various tribes.
Fei tribe became a laughingstock and the prime negative example for people to learn from.
"How can such a useless person who harmed his entire tribe appear now?" Yao Huang felt confused and suspicious.
After realizing his revival, Fei Wu reacted and paid his respects to Giant Sun Immortal Venerable: "Unfilial descendant, Fei Wu, greets Lord Ancestor!"
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had already used his luck inspection method to observe Fei Wu's foundation.
He was shocked to find out that Fei Wu's luck was actually quite sizable, far surpassing most rank sevens while being lower than an average rank eight. More importantly, Fei Wu's luck had a close connection to a certain existence far away, this existence's luck had an influence on Giant Sun Immortal Venerable himself.
But Giant Sun Immortal Venerable was a rank nine venerable, to think that there was actually an entity whose luck could affect him so intensely.
Soon, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's voice penetrated the ground and reached Blood Sea: "The truth is often buried deep in history. Fei Wu, my descendant, tell me the truth."
-x-X-x-
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's words made Fei Wu shook intensely as he showed an expression of gratitude: "Ancestor is wise! The so-called Fei tribe's internal conflict was just our disguise to the outside world. The truth is, if not for that beast tide, how could our united Fei tribe be wiped out?"
"Back then, I expended countless immortal material resources but I did not use up Fei tribe's foundation. Afterwards, when we developed in the fierce area, I even took away Yi Qi Zi which was deep within it!"
"However, legendary immemorial beast Yi Qi Zi had already recovered to a great extent, it was not unconscious. We fell for its ploy and ended up being exterminated by the beast tide."
"But in the end, our Fei tribe did our best to retaliate, Yi Qi Zi did not succeed after all. Its will was completely eradicated by us!"
"It is a huge pity!"
"If Yi Qi Zi did not ruin our plan, my Fei tribe would have dominated Northern Plains with an unceasing quantity of immortal essence stones. We will become the number one Huang Jin tribe and to a certain extent, rival Heavenly Court!!"
After hearing this, Yao Huang stared with wide eyes as he asked consecutive questions.
"Yi Qi Zi?"
"Isn't that a legendary immemorial desolate beast which appeared in the earliest history of humanity? Legend says that it was killed by Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable, how can it still be alive?"
"An unceasing source of immortal essence stones? Senior, did you unravel the mystery behind Heavenly Court's production of immortal essence stones?"
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable was silent as he listened. If reviving Fei Wu would get him immortal essence stones, it was not significant enough. However, his luck inspection showed that Fei Wu was very useful to him.
Within Blood Sea, Yao Huang was getting more excited, he clasped his fist with his palm and said: "Good, Senior Fei Wu has woken up right on time. As long as we have this way to produce immortal essence stones, we can raise our reputation and catch up to Heavenly Court. This is definitely a great chance now that Heavenly Court has stopped distributing immortal essence stones. Once we take over, it will cause everyone to have a deep impression of Longevity Heaven beyond Heavenly Court!"
The more Yao Huang spoke, the happier he got.
"Heavenly Court stopped distributing immortal essence stones? That's because they can't produce it anymore." Fei Wu was still kneeling on the ground, but he raised his upper body and said with a snicker, he was certain about the reason.
"Oh? Get up and talk, tell me about it clearly." Giant Sun Immortal Venerable descended upon Blood Sea, he arrived before Fei Wu.
"Yes." Fei Wu bowed deeply again before getting up: "I will explain from the start."
Fei Wu explained slowly: "Everyone knows that in this world, primeval energy is infinite, spirit springs produce primeval stones, but nobody has never found an immortal spring that can produce immortal essence stones."
"Wild Gu, be it mortal or immortal, can absorb primeval energy to activate their abilities. But once they are refined, the Gu worm will be someone's possession, they will lose the ability to use primeval energy. They will only be able to use primeval essence or immortal essence."
"This primeval essence and immortal essence includes both the owner and others. If a Gu worm is lent out, the Gu worm can still use others' primeval essence or immortal essence. For example, an Immortal Gu House can use the stored immortal essence of Gu Immortals inside."
"What is the root cause of all these?"
"According to my research, the reason is that be it primeval essence or immortal essence, both contain our human will. Wild Gu contain heaven's will, they are a product of heaven and earth, thus, we say that Gu is the essence of heaven and earth. Once we refine Gu worms, the heaven's will inside will be purged, replaced by our human will."
"As a result, the Gu worm becomes privately owned and the human will does not get acknowledged by the heaven's will of the outside world. Thus, the Gu can no longer absorb external primeval energy."
"If lent to others, the human will inside the Gu worm will acknowledge others so they can use their own primeval essence or immortal essence to activate it."
"Different immortal essence contain different human, thus, they can cancel each other out. This is why many rank six Gu Immortals fail to succeed when they invade blessed lands that are already owned."
Yao Huang was confused: "What does this have to do with immortal essence stone production?"
"Don't be anxious, listen to what I am saying, it will make sense soon." Fei Wu waved his hand and smiled.
"Our aperture produces primeval essence while our immortal aperture produces immortal essence, they all contain our human will. Then, do primeval stones and immortal essence stones not have a will in them?"
"They do!"
The primeval stones that spirit springs produce are essentially reinforced primeval essence that contains heaven's will. It is just that the primeval stones contain too little heaven's will, it is common to ignore it. However, the heaven's will often sneaks into our minds while we absorb primeval stones to influence our thoughts. This is one way that heaven's will use to control us!"
"It is a pity that most Gu cultivators in the world are attracted to the effect of restoring primeval essence through primeval stones, they do not notice this issue."
"Even if they do, they don't care about it. Heaven's will is just like air, it is everywhere, so it is quite normal to have some in primeval stones."
"The immortal essence stones that Heavenly Court gives out are the same as primeval stones in that they also contain heaven's will."
"Why does Heavenly Court give out rank six immortal essence stones?"
"It is actually a huge scheme by Heavenly Court!"
"During Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable's era, Heavenly Court purposely gave out immortal essence stones. These immortal essence stones reached the hands of the variant human Gu Immortals and were used by them. This allowed heaven's will to infiltrate them."
"Back then, heaven's will sided with humanity which would rise to take the position of the variant humans."
"By Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's era, she became one with the Dao and gained the ability to distort heaven's will, greatly influencing it. The distribution of immortal essence stones became even more widespread. When Gu Immortals use these immortal essence stones, they will be infiltrated by heaven's will, allowing Heavenly Court to influence and control them!"
Yao Huang heard his words as his mouth opened slightly: "So that's it? Can we copy Heavenly Court to distribute immortal essence stones and achieve the same effect for our Longevity Heaven?"
Fei Wu shook his head: "Unless we can assimilate with the Dao like Star Constellation Immortal Venerable to alter heaven's will."
Yao Huang was anxious now: "Even if we can't achieve the same effect, as long as we have an unceasing supply of immortal essence stones, we can still use it to Longevity Heaven's benefit. Senior Fei, how can we produce immortal essence stones?"
Fei Wu waved his hand again: "No rush, no rush, listen to my story."
"When we produce primeval essence, our human will and aperture are needed. When we produce immortal essence, our human will and immortal aperture are needed. To produce primeval stones, we need heaven's will and spirit springs. What about immortal essence stones?"
Yao Huang blinked: "Do we also need heaven's will and immortal apertures or immortal springs to create immortal essence stones?"
Fei Wu shook his head: "Many rank eight Gu Immortals who are not confident of passing a tribulation will annex an immemorial nine heavens fragment. From then on, the immortal aperture will turn into a grotto-heaven, it will be located at one place while the rank eight Gu Immortal will be like a caged bird unable to leave the immortal aperture again. These grotto-heavens contain heaven's will, there is also an immortal aperture, so why can't immortal essence stones be produced?"
"As for heaven's will and immortal springs? This is something that people have been speculating about Heavenly Court, they think that Heavenly Court obtained the only immortal spring in the world. But the truth is, this is not true. There is no such thing as an immortal spring in the world."
Yao Huang sighed: "Senior Fei, stop beating about the bush."
Even Giant Sun Immortal Venerable commented: "Tell us directly."
Fei Wu did not dare to defy Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, he sighed regrettably and said: "Then I'll cut to the chase."
"According to my research, the essence of a spirit spring is just an ordinary heaven path resource point. Within it, there are heaven path, water path, and earth path dao marks, because of the heaven's will, the spring water can produce solid primeval stones."
"The Heavenly Dao seeks balance of the myriad beings, it will not produce a resource like immortal essence stones naturally. Immortal essence is the most fundamental resource, without it, no Immortal Gu can be used by people. Meanwhile, the widespread distribution of immortal essence stones has greatly raised the chances of surviving calamities and tribulations, this can only be caused by people."
"However, the process cannot avoid heaven's will. Only through the injecting of heaven's will can there be immortal essence stones produced. This is an impossible loop."
Fei Wu accurately pointed out that heaven's will was the most crucial element in producing immortal essence stones.
But it was impossible to make heaven's will do this voluntarily as it violated the rules of the Heavenly Dao.
But nothing was absolute.
In history, Heavenly Court succeeded.
During Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable's era, he used the special trait of Yi Qi Zi to produce immortal essence stones.
During Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's era, Yi Qi Zi suicided but she assimilated with the Dao and altered heaven's will, allowing it to work with Heavenly Court to produce immortal essence stones.
"So, what is the special trait of Yi Qi Zi? Since it suicided, how did it revive?" Giant Sun Immortal Venerable asked the most important question.
Fei Wu immediately answered: "Yi Qi Zi is not its full name, its actual name is Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi. It is a very special legendary immemorial desolate beast, somewhat similar to Di Zang Sheng which appeared later in the future."
"When a Gu Master undergoes immortal ascension, there is a crucial step to draw in heaven and earth qi to mix with one's human qi and balance all three."
"If the balancing of three qi succeeds, the qi lump will condense and become smaller until it reaches the limit. This qi lump is known as the Qi of Unified Essence."
"This is the root cause of the creation of Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi! As long as there are Gu Masters undergoing immortal ascension in the world, they will produce the Qi of Unified Essence, even if it is destroyed, it can be reborn!"
"Initially, during the immemorial era, it was granted intelligence by a beastman great expert. Thus, it gained an immortal aperture and rose in strength, becoming a legendary immemorial beast."
"When Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable challenged the various variant human races, Yi Qi Zi fought against the Immortal Venerable and lost, getting captured. But to the outside world, Primordial Origin declared that it was killed."
"Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable held Yi Qi Zi captive and used it to produce immortal essence stones."
"Yi Qi Zi lost its freedom, unwilling to give in, it tried all ways to escape. No matter what it tried to do, Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable still foiled its plans. After him, Star Constellation took over. She was even more skilled at planning and was extremely perceptive, Yi Qi Zi had no choice but to suicide out of despair."
"This is the reason why he suicided in Heavenly Court."
Yao Huang did not understand it: "So how are they still producing immortal essence stones?"
Brilliance shone in Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's eyes, he muttered: "So that's it."
At this moment, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable finally understood why destined birth through luck revived Fei Wu.
This was because his revival would give Giant Sun Immortal Venerable a way to replenish his immortal essence!
This was more useful and beneficial to Giant Sun Immortal Venerable than rank nine light Gu.
But luck path itself was an uncertainty.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable could ensure that positive variables happened to benefit him, but he could not control the exact situation as that would involve controlling certainty.
-x-X-x-
Fei Wu saw Yao Huang's expression of confusion and laughed, he explained happily: "When a Gu Master undergoes immortal ascension, they will have a fortuitous encounter known as natural inspiration."
"What is the cause of it?"
"Heaven and earth qi contain heaven's will while human qi contains human will, at this crucial moment, the three qi fuse together, meaning heaven's will and human will congregate, allowing the person to ask heaven and earth for answers regarding the profundities and truths of the world."
"This is because heaven's will acknowledged the human will."
"Why?"
"From what I see, once an aperture undergoes qualitative change, it will become an immortal aperture. This is an achievement that grants benefit to the world. The Heavenly Dao wants to see this happen, thus, it rewards the human will."
"The specialty of Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi lies here, its body is made of the Qi of Unified Essence, which is the fusion of three qi, thus, it is able to receive the acknowledgment and reward of heaven's will at all times."
Yao Huang stared with wide eyes: "That means it is able to undergo natural inspiration at all times?!"
Fei Wu shook his head: "Strictly speaking, yes! But the truth is different. We all know that the three qi create the Unified Essence, it needs to be balanced carefully. If the lump of three qi loses balance, the Gu cultivator will die. This is not true for Yi Qi Zi, failure to balance the three qi will not cause it to be in fatal danger, instead, it will lose its rationality."
"Continuously controlling and balancing the three qi is too difficult."
"We have all undergone immortal ascension, it is already too tough for us to sustain the state of balancing the three qi for half a day. But Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi has to undergo it at all times."
"Thus, after it expends all its effort or gets sick of balancing the three qi, its body will lose control of the three qi. This causes heaven's will and the human will to intertwine and result in chaos, causing it to lose its rationality."
"In this condition, it cannot even think normally, how can it make use of the natural inspiration?"
"Regardless, as long as the Qi of Unified Essence exists, heaven's will still favors the human will, it will be willing to help."
"If this is an ordinary Gu Master who has not created the immortal aperture yet, they will only be able to interact with heaven's will and undergo natural inspiration. But Yi Qi Zi is different, it has an immortal aperture already. Thus, when it is sane and clearheaded, its immortal aperture will produce immortal essence. When it is irrational and insane, its immortal aperture will produce immortal essence stones that contain heaven's will."
Yao Huang finally understood everything.
Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi was too special, because of its unique physique, Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable gained immortal essence stones. But he only distributed rank six immortal essence stones.
After Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi died, Star Constellation assimilated with the Dao, although she could control heaven's will to some extent, there was a limit to it. Thus, from then on, Heavenly Court could only produce rank six immortal essence stones.
Fei Wu continued: " Back then, I accidentally found Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi in the fierce area, it was in a state of insanity, buried deep underground and unable to move. I spoke with it but it could not respond clearly, its answer was jumbled but it cursed Heavenly Court's two venerables with deep hatred. After some time, I pieced together the story and deduced many truths behind the situation."
"I mobilized the entire Fei tribe and wanted to obtain Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi. I expended immortal materials and modified killer moves to try and manipulate it. After completing my preparations, I went into the fierce area and execute my plan. But to think that Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi actually had its sanity, at that time, I could not back out anymore, I had to continue my plan forcefully. Fei tribe was wiped out while Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi was also sealed by our Fei tribe's method!"
"Without any accidents, it should still be trapped at the original spot, Ancestor, you only need to go retrieve it."
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable nodded, he brought Fei Wu to the Jade Ring fierce area.
Northern Plains had ten great fierce areas, within them were countless desolate beast groups, immemorial desolate beast and plants were also not rare.
Super forces had the ability to develop in them, but if a mistake happened, they would trigger a huge beast tide. Fei tribe's failure was one of the examples.
Jade Ring fierce area had more than ten different rings of huge ancient trees.
As one entered deeper into each ring, they would face more danger and threat.
Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi was hidden in the sixth ring.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable personally took action, he quickly arrived at it. Fei Wu had just revived and had no Gu worms but he was only giving directions.
Towards his ancestor, he did not hide anything but only said the truth.
After Giant Sun Immortal Venerable made his deductions, he used a newly modified luck path killer move, it triggered the arrangements of Fei tribe.
After doing that, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable extracted a huge black pearl from deep underground.
The black pearl was large as an elephant, it had a smooth surface and a deeply hidden aura.
"This is the result that our Fei tribe created, even a legendary immemorial beast was sealed by us!" Fei Wu looked at Yi Qi Zi as he sighed with deep emotions.
He had grand ambitions that ended in failure and the entire Fei tribe was wiped out. But thankfully, he was able to revive and use the arrangements they made to help their ancestor, this was all worth it!
After inspecting for some time, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable saw through the information of Yi Qi Zi using the intel from Fei Wu.
Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi was a lump of the Qi of Unified Essence. When it was sane, it would be in human form, the appearance would be hard to differentiate from actual people.
When it stops balancing the three qi and they go into chaos, it would turn into a lump of the Qi of Unified Essence.
If there was more heaven qi, it would float higher, if there was more earth qi, it would sink into the ground.
When Fei tribe fought against it, it had not regained its sanity fully, thus, it could not use its full strength.
Fei Wu and the rest made ample preparations, they deduced a killer move that countered Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi, eventually sealing it here.
Although Fei Wu was only rank seven, Fei tribe had many rank eights in the past, they also had Immortal Gu Houses that were the foundation of a super force. Most importantly, Unified Essence Yi Qi Zi was not sane so its strength could not be used properly.
Without rationality, even Spectral Soul Demon Venerable could not take down Fairy Zi Wei and Ying Wu Xie.
A long time had passed, by now, Fei tribe's killer move was already greatly weakened, the sealing effect had reached its limit.
But even if Yi Qi Zi regained freely, in its current condition, it would remain on the spot without regaining its senses.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable looked through the Qi of Unified Essence and inspected that deep within its immortal aperture, there were many rank eight immortal essence stones.
The production of immortal essence was as natural as breathing to the immortal aperture origin core, with heaven's will suppressing the human will the entire time, legendary immemorial beast Yi Qi Zi's immortal aperture had a large number of rank eight immortal essence stones!
Rank six immortal essence stones had little significance to Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, but rank eight immortal essence stones were different.
While happy, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable also found a problem.
There was a lot of heaven's will inside these rank eight immortal essence stones, if he wanted to absorb them, he would need to get rid of the heaven's will.
It was troublesome.
If he handled it poorly, it would affect the conversion rate of the immortal essence stones.
For example, one rank eight immortal essence stone might only be able to produce half a bead of rank eight immortal essence after getting rid of the heaven's will.
Rank six immortal essence stones had no such problem because the heaven's will inside was too little.
After considering it for a while, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable thought: "Back then, Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable made use of Yi Qi Zi, he also had rank eight immortal essence stones but only distributed the rank six version, he was not likely trying not to alert the variant human Gu Immortals. By Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's era, Yi Qi Zi suicided and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable altered heaven's will, by fusing it with Heavenly Court's origin core, they could only produce rank six immortal essence stones."
"However, where did the storage of rank eight immortal essence stones go? Are they use dup or hidden somewhere?"
"If they are hidden, why did I not find them when I attacked Heavenly Court? Did Spectral Soul Demon Venerable obtain them after ransacking Heavenly Court's treasury?"
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable shook his head.
Afterwards, Spectral Soul Demon Venerable was captured by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable made turned into her puppet.
If he had obtained those valuable rank eight immortal essence stones, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable would have retrieved them.
But the situation was clear, she had always been lacking immortal essence the entire time!
"No, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable cultivates wisdom path, what if she is hiding it the entire time?" Giant Sun Immortal Venerable frowned, his expression turned slightly solemn.
"If she has an abundant supply of immortal essence, why does she still lack it? In what area did she use the essence?"
Ever since Star Constellation Immortal Venerable refined Heavenly Court's wisdom path dao marks, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had not inspected her situation anymore.
As for Fang Yuan, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable could inspect him easily each time.
"If that is the situation, then Star Constellation Immortal Venerable... How much are you hiding? How deep are your secrets?" Giant Sun Immortal Venerable looked in the direction of Central Continent.
Eastern Sea.
"Any venerable has talent that is unimaginable to the average genius." Fang Yuan had already comprehended the information that Giant Sun Immortal Venerable handed to him in their transaction.
He obtained what he wanted.
Fang Yuan had already refined rank five blood skull Gu.
Earlier, he was only using rank four blood skull Gu, but Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had a newly developed rank five version.
Although it was a mortal Gu recipe, it had developed beyond the original limit of the world, this showed Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's immense talent.
Rank five blood skull Gu only needed to extract a certain amount of bloodline from the target's kin, there was no need to slaughter the entire clan.
There was also a method to produce twins.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had no choice but to hand over the research results of yin-yang path that he was secretly looking into.
Back then, in Eighty-Eight True Yang Building, there was the inheritance of Giant Sun Immortal Venerable regarding yin-yang path. The content was a method, to use it, a male and female Gu Immortal had to cooperate, using copulation to extend the lifespan of one of them.
But there was a flaw in this.
If one gains lifespan, the other must lose lifespan.
In other words, it was to transfer the lifespan of one person to the other.
Right now, the yin-yang path research result that Giant Sun Immortal Venerable handed to Fang Yuan was much more complete and comprehensive than the one hidden in Eighty-Eight True Yang Building.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had grand ambitions in creating this path, he wanted to use yin-yang to describe all beings in the world.
This was the same as Feng Jiu Ge's desire to use sound path to express all life in this world.
But as Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's strength and knowledge increased, he recognized that his former ideology of yin-yang was very shallow, he eventually gave up on creating it.
Although there were some research results in yin-yang path, it could not achieve a qualitative change to become a brand new path. At most, it could be used with other paths to occasionally create some unorthodox small gains.
Yin-yang life extension method was one of such results.
Another of such small gains were abortion Gu, safe pregnancy Gu, multiple pregnancy Gu, become pregnant Gu, reincarnation Gu, dead fetus Gu, and others.
Multiple pregnancy Gu was what Fang Yuan wanted.
Rank one could be used to produce one child, rank two produced twins. Rank three produced triplets, rank four produced quadruplets, and rank five produced quintuplets.
