The Terror of Option Chapter 1513 1513: 309 RI

"So Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable did not just arrange heaven form, this is also another arrangent but I did not notice it earlier." Fang Yuan thought to himself.

He suddenly had a thought as he asked: "Is Qing Chou also alive?"

Towards the end of the pursuit battle against Fang Yuan, Divine Emperor City ca to participate in the battle, causing a huge commotion, was it really to suppress Demon Immortal Qi Jue and Longevity Heaven?

Fang Yuan thought about the fragnts of Qing Chou's corpse.

What was Divine Emperor City's true motive?

It was a debatable question!

Lu Wei Yin's expression turned solemn as he sighed: "I only got an answer after returning here and recuperating for so ti. What was the main reason why Divine Emperor City joined the battle? In that situation earlier, the aura of rank nine hatred Gu was completely gone, it seed to have been destroyed."

"However, Qing Chou is a living being ford from a killer move. I cannot be certain if it is dead or alive. Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable's thod is simply too unfathomable, we can only sigh in amazent!"

Turning a killer move into a legendary immorial beast was simply too profound, even Fang Yuan and Lu Wei Yin could only watch without being able to decipher it.

Lu Wei Yin continued: "I cannot deduce Qing Chou's current state, but regarding Spectral Soul's situation, I am very clear about it."

Fang Yuan smiled lightly: "Please tell ."

Lu Wei Yin beat around the bush for so long, he finally got to the main point.

He answered: "Spectral Soul can be said to be both alive and dead at the mont. because his true main body has always been inside the Door of Life and Death."

Fang Yuan nodded as he sighed: "As I had expected."

When Spectral Soul self-detonated, Fang Yuan already felt sothing amiss. After refining all of his heaven path dao marks, Fang Yuan thought back about the situation and had even more suspicions brewing.

The great Spectral Soul actually died like this?

Spectral Soul was the most heaven defying one out of all the venerables after all!

In the five hundred years of Fang Yuan's previous life, Zombie Alliance was around while Shadow Sect hid in the dark, Spectral Soul secretly controlled the whole of Heavenly Court. Duke Long did not appear at all, he was evidently hard by Spectral Soul. He even plotted against Feng Jiu Ge, using that chance to seize Lang Ya blessed land, he controlled the overall situation and was the mastermind behind the five regions chaotic war.

As long as Great Dream Immortal Venerable did not appear, Spectral Soul would be the greatest winner in this situation.

Thus, Fang Yuan invaded Hu Immortal blessed land and was aided by Song Zhong, managing to kill Feng Jin Huang.

Who was Feng Jin Huang?

In her childhood, dream wings Immortal Gu ca to her, Feng Jin Huang was the prospective Great Dream Immortal Venerable!

Who was Fang Yuan?

He was an otherworldly demon, before Fate was destroyed, he was the only one who could create different outcos.

And who was Song Zhong?

He was publicly Song Zi Xing's son, but in reality, he was created from his blood fetus.

And Song Zi Xing?

He was known as the Blood Dragon, he was a mber of Shadow Sect, one of Spectral Soul's split souls!

In the five hundred years of Fang Yuan's previous life, there were many hidden truths.

At that ti, fate Gu was not destroyed, Demon Immortal Qi Jue could not revive, the other venerables could only watch as Spectral Soul wreaked havoc.

Spectral Soul was too overbearing, in the end, heaven's will had to choose Fang Yuan to return to the past and change everything!

During the Battle of Yi Tian Mountain, on the surface, Fang Yuan successfully stopped Spectral Soul.

But was that really the case?

Spectral Soul knew that Fang Yuan had been reborn as a result of heaven's will. According to his original plan, he would be able to control Heavenly Court and manipulate the five regions chaotic war, but heaven's will would still obstruct him. If Fang Yuan failed, a second or third otherworldly demon might appear, Spectral Soul would never be able to stand at the peak of the universe.

Thus, he changed his plan, at that mont, he started working together with Red Lotus Demon Venerable.

Eventually, he gave sovereign immortal fetus Gu to Fang Yuan, creating a complete otherworldly demon!

After the fate war, fate Gu was destroyed by Fang Yuan.

Spectral Soul wanted to reclaim the sovereign immortal body.

His plan was perfect. He had no lack of soul path attainnt level, with the sovereign immortal body, he would be able to annex Soul Pacifying grotto-heaven and others, instantly regaining his strength!

Thus, he would be ahead of the other venerables, he would have the initiative.

The advantage of being first was unimaginable, if Spectral Soul succeeded, he would be the strongest person, the entire world would be trampled under his feet.

But he did not succeed.

Red Lotus Demon Venerable plotted against him, while the heaven path dao marks restricted Fang Yuan, they also protected him.

Spectral Soul did not regain the sovereign immortal body, his growth beca very different.

While chasing after Fang Yuan, Heavenly Court and Longevity Heaven worked together, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable's inheritor Lu Wei Yin also interfered, eventually managing to kill Spectral Soul.

Fang Yuan tried to put himself in Spectral Soul's shoes, if he were Spectral Soul, what would he do?

Thus, he found a huge flaw in Spectral Soul's plan —

It was too risky!

During the dream realm battle, Duke Long defeated Purple Mountain True Monarch and broke into the blessed land, capturing Spectral Soul and taking the Door of Life and Death.

Spectral Soul's life was in the hands of Heavenly Court, if Fairy Zi Wei did not go after information and clues but killed Spectral Soul right away, would that not ruin everything?

Fang Yuan would not make such an arrangent if it were him.

What about Spectral Soul?

Even though he had the strongest killing nature, he was not stupid at all.

Thus, the most likely case was that the captured Spectral Soul was not the true main body of Spectral Soul!

If Fang Yuan were Spectral Soul, he would also create a clone to disguise as his main body and let Heavenly Court capture him.

Firstly, it would lower the enemy's guard.

Secondly, the clone was a trap as well, Fairy Zi Wei fell right into it.

Thirdly, the amount of information and true inheritances that the clone had would not be the sa as the main body, even if he was captured, the enemies would not gain much.

And finally, even if the clone was killed, the main body would not be affected.

Fang Yuan had two pieces of evidence regarding his suspicions of Spectral Soul.

The first one was Demon Immortal Qi Jue.

Demon Immortal Qi Jue was the crucial person in their pursuit of Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan and Spectral Soul used their respective true inheritances to lure Demon Immortal Qi Jue into becoming their ally.

Eventually, Fang Yuan won Demon Immortal Qi Jue over, Spectral Soul was forced to self-detonate and died.

After the battle, Fang Yuan recalled this contest, he felt that victory was simply too easily obtained, it was quite different from his expectations.

But if Spectral Soul was just a split soul, everything would make sense.

Spectral Soul did not predict the rebirth of Demon Immortal Qi Jue, because fate Gu was destroyed, all fixed traces were erased, the future was uncertain.

Spectral Soul's plan was for his split soul to get captured by Heavenly Court, he would only place certain mories into it. These mories would not make Heavenly Court suspicious, but they would also not contain precious information like valuable true inheritances.

Thus, Fang Yuan won against Spectral Soul in this aspect.

The second piece of evidence was obtained by Fang Yuan recently.

Through luck inspection, he checked his own luck and found that at the top of his pure silver pillar of light, there were three clouds. Among them, one was pitch-black like ink.

Who could cause such disturbance to him?

This black cloud was obviously pointing towards Spectral Soul!

If Spectral Soul was still alive, would he let Fang Yuan off? Shadow Sect and Zombie Alliance spent years of accumulated resources and even the ten extre physiques to create sovereign immortal fetus Gu. Would Spectral Soul let Fang Yuan off? Impossible!

On the other hand, with the revival of Demon Immortal Qi Jue, the world knew that it was possible for venerables to be revived now.

Spectral Soul's main body had likely already planned for his revival long ago.

In fact, did the other venerables not have such plans?

In the past, due to fate Gu, nobody could revive. But now that it was destroyed, who would not want to revive?!

Nobody knew which venerable would be the first one to revive fully. Nobody was clear when they would revive. It was even possible that a venerable would revive at the next mont.

Thus, the situation was quite precarious for Fang Yuan.

Once a venerable revives, the value of his pseudo venerable battle strength would fall greatly. His status as the number one demon in the world would turn him into a target instead.

After the battle, Lu Wei Yin told him to use his ti well before departing, this was what he ant.

Fang Yuan did exactly so.

After the battle, he used his ti to its limit, he did not relax for even a mont.

Once his strength returned and was able to deal with risks, Fang Yuan ca to Virtue Paradise.

He ca here not for Lu Wei Yin, Paradise Earth's true aning, or to inherit Paradise Earth's true inheritance.

He only had one objective.

"Tell . Lu Wei Yin, how do I beco a venerable?"

Fate Gu was destroyed, the future of the world beca uncertain, anything could happen now.

Not only the Gu Immortal world, even Gu Masters were starting to see the turbulence of the future.

Fang Yuan was fighting, the mortal Gu Masters were also struggling.

Sorrowful Wind Mountain Range.

Four Gu Masters traveled together, they entered deep into the mountain range for investigation.

They had rank four cultivation level, together, they could resist rank five. In Central Continent's Gu Master world, they were famous demonic path experts.

They were the Four Great Obscenities; Eastern Obscenity Chen Yin Dao, Western Thief Yu Ba Guang, Southern Disturbance Shi Bao and Northern Squandering Fan Chun Yao.

"Sorrowful winds are blowing again." Yu Ba Guang alerted the rest, among the four, he had the most effective investigative thods.

"Quick, take out the Gu House." Chen Yin Dao imdiately ordered, he was the leader of the four.

The Gu House was kept by Fan Chun Yao, he was in charge of healing and support.

The four Gu Masters quickly hid inside the Gu House.

Sorrowful winds blew outside the Gu House, the entire place was creaking and shaking, from ti to ti, Fan Chun Yao had to replenish Gu worms in place of those that died from the sorrowful winds.

"A terrible loss, this is a terrible loss!" Fan Chun Yao shouted in grief: "Along the way, we already lost so much by resisting the sorrowful wind, is there really anything good in this Sorrowful Wind Mountain Range?"

Chen Yin Dao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I cannot guarantee that, but as long as there is so hope, we need to take a risk! Not long ago, Gu Immortals fought on Sorrowful Wind Mountain Range, they might have left sothing behind by chance, it may allow us to ascend to immortal!"

The mont immortal ascension was ntioned, the other three Gu Masters started to breathe heavily.

"As long as we beco immortal, who would dare to attack us four immortals? We will no longer be pursued by anyone."

"Once we beco immortals, those high and mighty female Gu Masters will all be at our rcy, right? Hahaha."

"You need to be more ambitious! After becoming immortal, what's the point of going after mortals? We can target immortal fairies!"

The Gu Masters looked at each other and started to snicker pervertedly.

What they did not know was, Heavenly Court had already cleaned up the battlefield, all those immorial year beast corpses were taken away already.

The four of them ca to the ruins and searched for seven days but found nothing of value at all.

Just as the four were anxious and furious, preparing to leave, they finally found sothing.

"There is a person here! Quickly co."

"What's so strange about seeing a person, there are so many corpses here, they are the villagers living on the mountains."

"No, this person is still alive! And there is a weird phenonon around him."

"What?"

The other three Gu Masters rushed up and saw Wang Xiao Er who had tightly shut eyes, he was still barely alive.

Around him, there were several wild flowers and grass, they were rapidly blooming and wilting, alternating between green and grey with his every breath.

-x-X-x-

In this Gu world, looking at the past to the present, in the period of over three million years, ten Gu cultivators stood at the peak of the world, looking down on all the living beings.

In the long river of history, the five regions and two heavens had countless geniuses and heroes. If these people were akin to shining stars in the sky, then the ten rank nine Gu Immortals were each like suns, they were bright and dazzling, spreading their radiance over the whole world.

Their glory had never faded, their legends continued to be widespread.

They were the ten great venerables!

From the start of history until now, they were —

Three million years ago, Remote Antiquity Era: Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable, Star Constellation Immortal Venerable.

One million years ago, Olden Antiquity Era: Limitless Demon Venerable, Reckless Savage Demon Venerable, Red Lotus Demon Venerable.

Three hundred thousand years ago, dieval Antiquity Era: Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable, Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable.

A hundred thousand years ago, Late Antiquity Era: Spectral Soul Demon Venerable, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable.

These ten stood at the apex, dominating the world with unparalleled might, they suppressed their entire era with no rival that could match them!

Their thods were terrifying, even after a long period, they still remained like eternal arrangents.

Their intelligent sches spanned across the eras, existing throughout the past and present, they used all living beings as their pawns. Even after death, they still continued to influence countless future generations.

Towards these people, Fang Yuan had the deepest feelings in this aspect compared to everyone else in the world.

Fang Yuan was extrely clear about the gap between him and these venerables. Even though he was the number one demon of the current world, having pseudo venerable battle strength, he was not confident in fighting against a venerable.

Venerables dominated heaven and earth, everyone else other than them were ants.

The fate war was a huge lesson to everyone, any thod left by any venerable could turn the entire situation around just like that.

Only a venerable could resist another venerable.

Putting it crudely, the reason why Fang Yuan succeeded in the fate war was because he struggled and managed to survive while sandwiched between the battle among the ten venerables and heaven's will.

Towards these venerables who invested in him and treated him as a pawn, for every bit of admiration that Fang Yuan held towards them, there was also an urge to challenge them. For every bit of wariness he felt towards them, there was a bit of desire to match them.

If they could beco venerables, why couldn't I, Fang Yuan, do it?

Furthermore, in order to pursue eternal life, the so-called rank nine venerable cultivation level was rely the stepping stone for Fang Yuan.

The plan to beco venerable had already been set the mont he was reborn!

Years ago, when Fang Yuan had just been reborn, he looked up at the sky during those nights, viewing the moon, he felt incredibly minuscule. But now, he had already risen to the skies, venerable level was rely his next step of advancent.

But how could he beco a venerable?

Fang Yuan did not know, he was uncertain, he did not understand.

There was a huge secret behind the ascension of a venerable!

This secret had never been publicly spread.

The ten venerables seed to have so sort of tacit agreent, they kept this secret together.

Nobody in the world could find out, they could only analyze using so clues and common traits that everyone knew.

Among the ten venerables, there were nine males and one female. This ant that there was no gender restriction in becoming a venerable, it was possible for both sexes.

Venerables possessed invincible battle strength but they were not omnipotent. Giant Sun Immortal Venerable and Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable had once asked Long Hair Ancestor to refine Immortal Gu with them.

Two kings could not exist at the sa ti. In every great era, there was only one venerable, there had never been two venerables in the sa ti period. Contests between venerables were limited to the type in the fate war, where they competed using thods they left behind.

Each venerable possessed imnse innate luck, phenona could be seen for so when they were born, their lives were smooth sailing, for example, Red Lotus Demon Venerable. So were not apparent in their early days, they only grew explosively after a certain period of ti.

Seemingly, in the growth of every venerable, there would be one Dao Guardian in existence. Each Dao Guardian played a monuntal role in the journey of the venerable's growth, they could be either friend or enemy.

It was publicly recognized that every rank nine venerable's main path was at supre grandmaster.

The venerables were still restricted by lifespan, there were records in history where venerables used their full strength to hunt for lifespan Gu.

The ten venerables were all humans, there had never been a variant human venerable.

However, just this information could not truly deduce the secret of venerable ascension. One of the most successful deductions in history was the Prophecy of Three Venerables. Immortal Yi Yan said that in the future, there would be Spectral Soul Demon Venerable, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable, and Great Dream Immortal Venerable.

This deduction did not involve the details of the secret of venerable ascension. Furthermore, after Fang Yuan destroyed fate Gu, this prophecy was no longer set in stone.

Then, what was the secret of venerable ascension?

Fang Yuan needed to know about this secret urgently.

Demon Immortal Qi Jue's success was the best example, it was likely that the venerables were going to revive.

Thus, the best way to deal with this possibility was for Fang Yuan to beco venerable himself!

Fang Yuan understood deeply: No matter how many grotto-heavens he annexed or how many immortal materials and dao marks he had, he could not beco venerable. Thus, the most important reason why he ca to Lu Wei Yin was for the secret of venerable ascension. Other things, like Paradise Earth's true inheritance or Paradise Earth's true aning, were just secondary gains for the current Fang Yuan.

Sitting opposite each other, Lu Wei Yin drank his tea as he smiled.

He was not surprised by Fang Yuan's question.

He raised his head and placed down his tea cup, he raised three fingers and said directly: "There are four conditions to satisfy if you want to beco a venerable."

"First, the Gu Immortal's immortal aperture origin core has to produce white litchi immortal essence."

"Second, the Gu Immortal's main cultivation path needs to have at least three hundred thousand dao marks."

"Third, the Gu Immortal's main cultivation path needs to be at least supre grandmaster in attainnt level."

"Fourth, after eting the first three conditions, the Gu Immortal has to break through the Heavenly Dao blockade, after which the immortal aperture origin core will undergo a qualitative change and produce rank nine yellow apricot immortal essence."

Out of Fang Yuan's expectations, Lu Wei Yin actually told him the secret of venerable ascension directly and honestly.

Fang Yuan originally thought that Lu Wei Yin would make a transaction regarding this and list so conditions for Fang Yuan. Or more accurately, there had to be a reason why Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable chose Fang Yuan as his inheritor.

Fang Yuan did not know what Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable was plotting.

But he had already decided that as long as he could obtain the secret of venerable ascension, he would be willing to give in to so extent and work with Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable.

However, Lu Wei Yin did not conceal this secret, he directly said it to Fang Yuan.

This was like a transaction where both parties were ant to hand over the goods and money at the sa ti, but suddenly, the trader tossed the goods to the buyer first.

Lu Wei Yin's action did not make Fang Yuan relax, he instead beca more alert.

Lu Wei Yin had a deep scheming mind, Fang Yuan had lost to him once in the past and failed to regain upper extre heavenly eagle. During the battle to pursue Fang Yuan, Lu Wei Yin worked with him and killed Spectral Soul together, this battle even showed Fang Yuan his strong ntal fortitude and endurance.

How could such a person be so unwise?

Fang Yuan carefully thought about the four conditions of venerable ascension.

"The first two conditions are basically those of a rank eight Gu Immortal who has passed three myriad tribulations. I have already t this condition in qi path, ti path, refinent path, and transformation path."

"As for the third condition of the main cultivation path being supre grandmaster, I have not fulfilled this criteria yet, but my refinent path, ti path, and enslavent path are already quasi-supre, the difference is not huge."

"As for the fourth condition, breaking through the Heavenly Dao blockade?"

Fang Yuan frowned slightly as he asked: "What does the Heavenly Dao blockade refer to?"

Lu Wei Yin continued to explain for Fang Yuan: "The way of heaven is to take away surpluses while replenishing deficits, so all things are in balance and mutually restrict each other. A tall tree is the first to face destruction, soil that is nearest to the water will be the first to be swept away by the currents. But the way of humans is the exact opposite, it reduces the deficits and builds up the surpluses, by devouring the weak and continuing to learn, one can grow and make up for insufficiencies to beco even stronger."

"The Heavenly Dao does not want the number of Gu Immortals to increase while they at the sa ti get stronger, thus calamities and tribulations occur. Calamities and tribulations are part of the Heavenly Dao blockade. Before becoming a venerable, the Heavenly Dao will send a tribulation far greater than any myriad tribulation!"

"Other than that, there is lifespan Gu. Lifespan Gu is a heaven path Gu worm, it cannot be refined by people. Even though the ten venerables were invincible in their eras, they were still bound by it. During an era with a venerable in existence, natural production of lifespan Gu will continuously fall."

"The third blockade is fate Gu, but you have already destroyed it."

Fang Yuan pondered: "There are basically three types of Heavenly Dao blockades, fate Gu has been destroyed while lifespan Gu is of no concern for now, the remaining tribulation blockade is the greatest hurdle that I will face."

"Is there a way to deal with the Heavenly Dao blockade? How did the venerables in history get past it?" Fang Yuan asked.

Lu Wei Yin answered: "There are ways to take shortcuts, luck path is one of them. The venerables in history all have imnse innate luck, it mostly cos from two sources. The first is the favor of heaven's will, the second is the adoration of human path."

"Three million years ago, the variant humans were strong and disrupted the balance, the Heavenly Dao sought to deal with them, so heaven's will favored Primordial Origin and allowed him to beco an Immortal Venerable."

"The best example of human path adoration is Red Lotus Demon Venerable. He is a child of humanity, he has extrely dense innate luck, when he was born, tribulation struck. The Three Dukes of Heavenly Court had to intervene and block the tribulation for Red Lotus."

Fang Yuan raised his brows: "Thinking about it, can human path thods be a way of breaking through the Heavenly Dao blockade?"

Earlier, Fang Yuan had used human path thods to interrupt with the Heavenly Dao, allowing him to gain ti to take action. In this aspect, he was quite experienced.

Lu Wei Yin nodded: "Indeed, human path thods are a good way of breaking through the Heavenly Dao blockade. Precisely so, the various venerables had a common trait, they all comprehended sothing from u003cu003cThe Legends of Ren Zuu003eu003e and created their own top tier human path killer moves!"

They continued to converse for so ti, Lu Wei Yin answered every single one of Fang Yuan's questions to the best of his knowledge.

Fang Yuan finally understood the conditions to beco venerable, he fell into deep contemplation.

After careful analysis, he found that only two points restricted him from becoming venerable: One was attainnt level, the other was the Heavenly Dao blockade.

The latter could be dealt with eventually, Fang Yuan had Cooking Luck Pot in terms of luck path, he also had human path thods, he just had to elevate and develop them further.

The true problem was attainnt level.

Quasi-supre grandmaster attainnt level, it seed very close to the genuine supre grandmaster, but that was actually very hard to reach.

If there was a suitable environnt and sufficient ti, Fang Yuan could work hard in cultivation and continue to deepen his comprehension, he believed that in this lifeti, he could definitely reach supre grandmaster in at least one path.

But now, the revival of venerables had started to cast a shadow on his future.

"What thod is there to allow to get past this problem?"

Dream realms?

Obviously not.

Fang Yuan had already found out that the dream realms originating from Spectral Soul could only reach great grandmaster attainnt level at most.

True aning?

He thought about it: "Don't tell , Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable left behind his true aning so that my earth path could reach supre grandmaster?"

Seemingly sensing Fang Yuan's thoughts, Lu Wei Yin shook his head: "Lord Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable's true aning can only allow you to reach earth path great grandmaster. However, there is a solution in Paradise Earth's true inheritance."

Fang Yuan looked at the smiling Lu Wei Yin, an obscure light flashed in his eyes: "Oh, please do tell ."

Lu Wei Yin thus said: "Fang Yuan, you have read u003cu003cThe Legends of Ren Zuu003eu003e, you must know this secluded domain of heaven and earth, Primordial Domain. The truth is, if one can enter Primordial Domain, they would be able to make one of their paths reach supre grandmaster."

"Primordial Domain?" Fang Yuan was moved: "You know where it is."

Lu Wei Yin's eyes flashed with bright light: "At the deepest layer of Crazed Demon Cave!"

-x-X-x-

"Primordial Domain… is at the deepest layer of Crazed Demon Cave?" At once, thoughts collided in Fang Yuan's mind rapidly.

u003cu003cThe Legends of Ren Zuu003eu003e did ntion Primordial Domain but the description was vague and ambiguous, it depended on the reader's own perspective and comprehension.

"Even if Primordial Domain has such power, is it really at the deepest layer of Crazed Demon Cave?" Fang Yuan would not believe Lu Wei Yin's words so easily.

But this was quite possible.

Fang Yuan had been to Crazed Demon Cave, he had observed then that Paradise Earth went there and even created his own Dao field.

Fang Yuan could not enter the deepest layer, but Paradise Earth was an Immortal Venerable, his ability could not be easily assessed.

"If this is real, then Paradise Earth's objective is in Crazed Demon Cave?"

Fang Yuan's mind was turbulent but his expression remained unchanging.

Lu Wei Yin looked at his expression as he sighed internally: "This Gu Yue Fang Yuan is the number one demon in the world after all, no wonder heaven's will and the venerables chose him as their pawn. Just this information is not enough to gain his trust!"

Lu Wei Yin had no choice but to continue speaking: "Primordial Domain is indeed at the bottom of Crazed Demon Cave, it is quite unique, it is both the beginning and the end, it contains the supre profundity of the whole of heaven and earth. Limitless Demon Venerable used it and rank nine derivation Immortal Gu as the cores to derive new worlds and create brand new heaven path dao marks."

"In a way, Crazed Demon Cave is far more important than even Heavenly Court!"

Lu Wei Yin said slowly as he exposed even more secrets.

During the Olden Antiquity Era a million years ago, humanity's first Demon Venerable, Limitless Demon Venerable, attacked Heavenly Court and threatened to destroy it, forcing Star Constellation's will to engage in a ga of chess with him.

The chessboard was secretly linked to Crazed Demon Cave, as the two venerables sched, their thoughts collided and new ideas were born, they created brand new heaven path gains.

These gains went into Crazed Demon Cave through the chessboard, helping Limitless with his derivation.

Star Constellation pretended to be unaware but she was prepared for this long ago, she went along with the plan.

The venerables of the future, like Reckless Savage Demon Venerable, Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable, and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, all visited Imperfection Regret Pavilion and knew of the two venerables' ga, they understood the importance of Crazed Demon Cave.

During the fate war, the silhouettes of both venerables vanished within Imperfection Regret Pavilion, but this was only the end of a segnt of their ga. The true place to decide victory was still Crazed Demon Cave!

All the venerables knew this, they all took part in so way. For example, Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable created his Green Lotus Dao field in the eighth layer of Crazed Demon Cave. Reckless Savage Demon Venerable created his Savage Wilderness Great World, while Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable made his Yellow Earth Great World.

This way, the situation beca more complex.

Fang Yuan was shaken internally: "This has been one of my deepest suspicions so far. A portion of the venerables spent so much effort to create their Dao field in the eighth layer of Crazed Demon Cave, why did they want to defend their own big world so much? Unless, they are also after Primordial Domain?"

"Venerables have already beco venerable, Primordial Domain is not necessary to them. Wait, that might not be the case!" A flash of inspiration sparked in Fang Yuan's mind, he saw through the fog and observed a corner of the truth.

"Haha." Lu Wei Yin laughed loudly: "Fang Yuan, you truly live up to your reputation, you are soone who did not falter to the venerables' plots no matter how many were in your way. You have already understood a portion of it."

"Indeed." Lu Wei Yin continued: "Fate Gu has been destroyed, venerables can revive now. However, the stronger the Gu Immortal, the more troubleso and bigger the price their revival will be. If they are careless, even if they revive, they will not have their forr strength. For example, Demon Immortal Qi Jue was interrupted by you and Wu Yong, his strength fell and he was no longer in his peak condition."

"Venerables are the sa. After they revive, even though they will not have their venerable blockade and will be able to regain rank nine cultivation level, the competition between venerables will be intense. Even though venerables left behind revival thods, they are still limited in the end. Thus, the venerables want to make their revival certain, it would be best if they had their forr peak battle strength the mont they revived."

Fang Yuan nodded continuously.

He could understand the venerables' ntality.

When fate Gu was around, everyone was unable to revive. But all the venerables still left behind so thods, once fate Gu was destroyed, these thods would activate and allow them to revive.

However, venerables were in opposing factions, they had their own perspectives, they also sched against each other.

Who would not want to be the strongest person in the world?

Who would want the existence of venerables other than themselves?

The venerables were wary of each other, they thwarted each other's plans, even though they were dead, they still competed with each other in the dark.

Due to the long duration of history, this type of competition would usually benefit the venerables of the future eras. For example, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable.

But nothing was absolute.

Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable ca before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable, but his arrangents, Divine Emperor City and Qing Chou, still managed to harm Spectral Soul!

Or the situation of Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable entering the Red Lotus stone island and taking away regret Gu, it was an easy task.

But all in all, this was the general trend.

Later venerables had a greater advantage in this contest.

Because the entire Gu cultivation world was continuously developing and growing. In the Remote Antiquity Era, in Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable's ti, there were only four to five paths, qi path was the strongest. But now? There were paths of all kinds, mainstream paths numbered to at least twenty!

Taking Divine Emperor City as an example, it was created by Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable using his peak wood path and painting path attainnt at that ti, it could even mimic human path. But in terms of luck path, it was quite lacking. After all, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable only appeared after Genesis Lotus.

In fact, it was not certain if Divine Emperor City was still the peak product of wood path at this current ti.

Three hundred thousand years had already passed since Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable's era. During this long period, wood path had grown trendously, countless geniuses erged, they had their own developnts, they promoted wood path to a new level.

Only painting path was still at its peak.

Why?

Painting path had been kept as a secret by Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable, it was not leaked to the outside world.

Thus, the current painting path was still kept at its peak state from back then.

This was also why a portion of the venerables held onto their own paths' true inheritances and did not spread them widely.

Like Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's luck path true inheritances.

Lu Wei Yin continued to expose more secrets: "Fang Yuan, do you know that Duke Long had moved the Door of Life and Death into Crazed Demon Cave before the fate war?"

Fang Yuan's gaze flickered: "Heavenly Court knows that Spectral Soul's main body is inside the Door of Life and Death, so they moved it away in advance and prevented him from succeeding his plot? No wonder Spectral Soul and Fairy Zi Wei could not find the Door of Life and Death even after ransacking Heavenly Court's treasuries."

Lu Wei Yin drank so tea before continuing: "Duke Long did not just relocate the Door of Life and Death, he even moved a portion of Heavenly Court's immortal graveyard into Crazed Demon Cave!"

Fang Yuan was stirred: "This ans that I only destroyed a portion of Heavenly Court's immortal graveyard, the rest is inside Crazed Demon Cave. Is this the backup plan that Heavenly Court had? It does seem like the way of a righteous path super force. After all, Heavenly Court had limited Gu Immortals, even if they woke up, they could not retain their peak battle strength, Star Constellation's will also needs so Gu Immortals to hibernate and support her."

"I was about to get to Star Constellation's will." Lu Wei Yin's gaze was bright as a torch, he stared at Fang Yuan: "Do you know that for a long ti, Star Constellation's will has not showed herself to tell Heavenly Court what to do?"

Fang Yuan was finally moved, he understood the implicit aning behind these words.

Fang Yuan stared at Lu Wei Yin: "You an to say, Star Constellation has already revived using her will?"

Lu Wei Yin nodded: "Although I am not certain, this is very likely to be the case. If Star Constellation Immortal Venerable revived, she would definitely lurk in the eighth layer and try to obtain the ninth layer's Primordial Domain. Once she enters it, she will regain her supre grandmaster attainnt level in wisdom path, she will be able to use the prival energy of the world for herself and beco a complete and genuine Dao Lord!"

Fang Yuan frowned deeply.

He had originally thought that no venerable had revived yet. But from this conversation, he knew that it was likely at least one venerable had already revived.

And this revived venerable, the only female among them, was terrifying, the only wisdom path venerable.

This woman was so strong that even after her death, she could sche against three Demon Venerables of the future. Even though the true details were quite different from what Heavenly Court publicly announced, it was true that Heavenly Court was saved by Star Constellation's sches and arrangents, surviving the onslaught of three Demon Venerables.

This contribution was undeniable, every ti Fang Yuan thought about it, he could feel how terrifying it was!

As for why Star Constellation Immortal Venerable was no longer a wisdom path supre grandmaster, Fang Yuan knew clearly.

Star Constellation Immortal Venerable died three million years ago during the Remote Antiquity Era.

Too much ti had passed!

Wisdom path had developed until today, it had already undergone a complete revolution in terms of improvent and elevation.

Quasi-supre grandmaster ant that the Gu Immortal's understanding of the path was already at the limit of heaven and earth, they were already touching that ceiling, they had almost completely understood the profundity of the path. But they were just inches away, unable to break through.

As for supre grandmaster attainnt level, not only did they need to comprehend the full profundities of the path, they also had to innovate further. At this level, each ti the Gu Immortal improves, it would be an unprecedented feat, it would elevate the upper boundaries of the entire path, it would even elevate the whole of heaven and earth to so degree.

Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's wisdom path supre grandmaster attainnt level back in the day was no longer supre grandmaster in today's world.

Even though she rged with heaven's will and studied Heavenly Court's wisdom path research results at all tis, this was still true.

Forget about the difference between Star Constellation's will and a clone, just Heavenly Court's wisdom path research results alone only represented a portion of the whole of wisdom path.

Only after Star Constellation Immortal Venerable entered Primordial Domain could her wisdom path attainnt level return to supre grandmaster, she would beco a Dao Lord again.

"What is a Dao Lord?" Fang Yuan heard of a new concept from Lu Wei Yin once again.

This journey to the Mushroomman Paradise was truly valuable. He had already understood the conditions of venerable ascension, he also learned of the venerables' sches, and now, the term Dao Lord was likely concerning the secret of venerable invincibility!

As expected, at the next mont, Lu Wei Yin smiled: "Why could the past venerables be invincible in the world? The difference between venerable and pseudo venerable lies in the concept of Dao Lord. Why could venerable thods remain for so many years without dissipating? This is also due to the concept of Dao Lord."

Before Fang Yuan could ask him, Lu Wei Yin imdiately answered: "The so-called Dao Lord refers to the lord of a certain path. When a Gu Immortal becos venerable and has supre grandmaster attainnt level, they will be the leader of that path, their own improvent would signify the improvent of the path, that would also be the improvent of heaven and earth, that person is a Dao Lord."

"As a Dao Lord, the Gu Venerable can sense all of the natural dao marks of heaven and earth of that particular path and refine them! After refining the dao marks, the Gu Venerable can manipulate them at will."

Fang Yuan could not help but feel shaken: "Refine them? Manipulate them at will?"

Lu Wei Yin continued to speak: "After every venerable becos venerable, there will be a period of ti when they roam the world. For example, Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable or Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable. But the truth is, during this period, they are refining the natural dao marks of the world, they are turning the entire world into their personal battlefield killer move."

This was the secret of venerable invincibility!

-x-X-x-

"So this is the secret of venerable invincibility…" Fang Yuan sighed in his heart.

This trip to the Mushroomman Paradise was truly not in vain!

Fang Yuan obtained a lot of secrets involving venerables, he also had so sort of guess towards Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable's motive.

At this point, the signs shown in Fang Yuan's luck inspection were verified.

His luck was like a pure silver pillar of light, even though it was slim, it was tall, shooting towards heaven, seemingly trying to pierce the sky.

At the bottom of this dense pure silver light pillar, there was a lump of yellow qi guarding it, looking like a dust cloud that seed to support the pillar.

At the top of the pillar, there were three clouds, one was black as ink, one was golden and dazzling, one was shining with starlight.

These three clouds were phenona that seed to be obstructing Fang Yuan's luck from rising further.

The black ink cloud should be Spectral Soul Demon Venerable. After all, the current Shadow Sect was already left with few mbers, it had little threat.

The starlight cloud was most likely the revived Star Constellation Immortal Venerable. It radiated mystery, it had an aura filled with wisdom.

As for that golden cloud, there was no need to guess, it was Giant Sun Immortal Venerable. In the fate war earlier, Giant Sun's attack ca from Northern Plains with imposing might, arriving in Heavenly Court with unparalleled strength!

During the battle to pursue Fang Yuan, even though they lost one legendary immorial beast, Longevity Heaven's strength did not fall much, they still retained their foundation. The Huang Jin family was like the ten great ancient sects of Central Continent, it dominated Northern Plains and ensured that the whole of Northern Plains was controlled by Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's bloodline descendants.

Crazed Demon Cave was in Northern Plains, there was no way to avoid Giant Sun Immortal Venerable and Longevity Heaven.

"Maybe, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable chose to create Longevity Heaven in Northern Plains not because he was a Northern Plainsman but because of the crucial Crazed Demon Cave, he wanted to make his arrangents."

Fang Yuan had many thoughts, he pondered about the deeper aning of this.

If it were him, he would make the sa arrangents.

If fate Gu was not destroyed, everything would not matter. But once it was destroyed, the venerables could revive. By then, whoever occupied Northern Plains and encircled Crazed Demon Cave would have the clear advantage!

Fang Yuan looked at Lu Wei Yin again: "Since Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable created the Yellow Earth Great World, then by helping beco venerable, does he also want to help him revive successfully?"

Lu Wei Yin nodded and smiled: "Precisely. Back then, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable brought blessings to the world, but his main true inheritances were left in the five regions. Southern Border's Paradise Earth true inheritance is here. Eastern Sea's Paradise Earth true inheritance is in the blue dragon whale. Central Continent's Paradise Earth true inheritance is Reincarnation Battlefield. Northern Plains' Paradise Earth true inheritance is inside the Yellow Earth Great World. As for Western Desert's Paradise Earth true inheritance, soone seems to have taken it already."

"Venerables have left behind their revival thods but they are limited. As long as they are destroyed in advance, these venerables will not be able to revive. But if they revive, the difficulty to take them down will be at a whole new level compared to before."

"Now that fate Gu has been destroyed, the River of Ti's lower stream is in turbulence and chaos, the world is experiencing an unprecedented shift in era. Who can be sure of what will happen in the future? Not just venerable revival, just talking about Great Dream Immortal Venerable alone, will she still appear? Pseudo venerable is just pseudo venerable in the end."

"By now, Fang Yuan, I am sure that you no longer suspect our sincerity. As long as you help Lord Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable revive, we will be the closest allies. Not only will we give you Southern Border's Paradise Earth true inheritance, we will also provide clues for Eastern Sea's and Central Continent's Paradise Earth true inheritances, the value is simply imasurable."

Fang Yuan was silent.

Lu Wei Yin was here to convince him, he was not just qualified to do so, he was incredibly skilled!

"As expected, every venerable had extrely deep wisdom." Fang Yuan was starting to understand the accuracy of Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable's sche.

Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable did not need to worry that Fang Yuan would reject him!

Because the things that Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable offered had imnse value, not only would Fang Yuan be moved, he also needed these venerable secrets urgently.

The reason why Lu Wei Yin exposed these secrets to Fang Yuan earlier was not because he was stupid or generous.

It was because Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable knew about Fang Yuan's nature.

To work wholeheartedly with a person like Fang Yuan, the first condition was that he needed to be assured. Otherwise, even though Fang Yuan was a risk-taker, with his imnse vigilance, he would not help to revive a venerable while only being a pseudo venerable!

Thus, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable needed to help Fang Yuan beco venerable.

Red Lotus and Spectral Soul were worried that Fang Yuan would beco unstoppable when he beca a venerable, thus they wanted to get rid of him. But Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable wanted to help Fang Yuan in this, while the other venerables were fighting alone, he had already cooperated with Fang Yuan.

Venerables were the strongest existences in heaven and earth, they were at the limit of the world. In a contest between such individuals, their strength would usually be quite equal, any bit of difference would decide the eventual outco.

Thus, if Paradise Earth worked together with Fang Yuan, the advantage would be huge.

All these were simply alluring temptations.

Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable did not just tempt Fang Yuan with the present gains, he even lured Fang Yuan with the future benefits of working together.

Of course, other than allure, there was also pressure!

Lu Wei Yin had already told Fang Yuan clearly: The venerables want to revive in Crazed Demon Cave, would you not stop them? If not, after losing this opportunity, you will definitely suffer in the future.

Fang Yuan, look at what you've done in the past!

Longevity Heaven, Heavenly Court, and Shadow Sect were all his enemies, if the venerables revived, they would not let him off.

Even if they had no grudges, hehe, as a pseudo venerable closest to the level of venerables, would those revived venerables want more chess players in this world to compete with them?

Paradise Earth was a good person, he only expressed kindness to others. However, Paradise Earth's magnanimity and scheming ability definitely lived up to his title as a venerable!

Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable tempted and pressured Fang Yuan at the sa ti, what would he choose?

How else could he choose?

At the next mont, Fang Yuan nodded with a grim expression: "Alright, I agree to this. Let's set the agreent."

Lu Wei Yin waved his hand: "I believe in you, Fang Yuan, why would we need to set an agreent?"

He was bullsh*tting.

The true reason was that Fang Yuan had thods like myriad beings assimilation transformation, almost no alliance agreents in the world could restrict him.

Lu Wei Yin had no choice but to show his tolerance in this issue.

Fang Yuan was a logical person, if he was not logical and vigilant, he would not reach this stage today. Precisely because of his logic and wariness, he knew that working together with Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable had benefits, while refusing had its derits.

This was more effective than any alliance agreent in the world!

Lu Wei Yin slowly stood up: "Since we are in an alliance, Southern Border's Paradise Earth true inheritance is yours now. Please follow ."

Fang Yuan followed Lu Wei Yin and left the house, going to a mountain peak.

Outside the house, the sky was tall and the clouds were wide, the fields under the mountains were green, the breeze was gentle and the trees were swaying slowly.

Lu Wei Yin pointed at the base of the mountain: "Fang Yuan, firstly, this Mushroomman Paradise is now your property. You can freely annex it, of course, you can let it remain here as your territory in Southern Border's Gu Immortal world."

Fang Yuan was moved, this gift was not a small one. Mushroomman Paradise had existed for over a hundred thousand years, it had abundant resources, comparable with top tier grotto-heavens in the two heavens.

Let alone the giant resource points inside, just the countless mushroomn living here were definitely sothing unique among the five regions and two heavens! This was the best mushroomman resource in the world, there was no contest!

Next, Lu Wei Yin handed Fang Yuan more than ten Immortal Gu, they were mostly earth path.

Among them, one was an information path Immortal Gu that recorded the details of Southern Border's Paradise Earth true inheritance.

Fang Yuan's divine sense entered and saw everything at once, he found that this true inheritance had three components. The main part was the earth path true inheritance, there was the core killer move, paradise creation, after using this move, the immortal aperture would no longer have calamities and tribulations.

The second part was related to human path, Fang Yuan had seen the contents before, when Lu Wei Yin tried to reform Fang Yuan in the dream realm, Fang Yuan had obtained this Virtue true inheritance before.

This true inheritance had a weird requirent. It needed the inheritor to maintain a just heart, to be a virtuous person. The greater the user's virtues, the easier it was when cultivating.

The core Immortal Gu was accumulate virtue Gu. As long as Fang Yuan did good deeds and acted kindly, it would continue to refine itself. The greater the accumulation of kindness, the higher the rank of the accumulate virtue Gu refined.

Accumulate virtue Gu had many incredible uses, the most useful one was to modify Fang Yuan's physique into the Righteous Virtue Physique that was only inferior to the ten extre physiques, but it did not have any of the ten extre physiques' flaws, it represented a limitless future and potential!

Fang Yuan only took a few looks before he sighed in amazent towards Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable's talent.

Earlier, he had only interacted with a small portion in his dream, he did not understand its full profundity.

The human path segnt of Southern Border's Paradise Earth true inheritance opened a new door for Fang Yuan, he saw a new perspective of human path. It stemd from the morals of people, developing in this direction. If Gu cultivators chose to cultivate this way, it would definitely create change and beco a central part of Gu cultivation in the future.

If this cultivation information was spread widely, it would definitely cause the righteous path to prosper.

Additionally, the refinent thod of accumulate virtue Gu was also incredible!

It was able to refine accumulate virtue Gu in the person's body through acts of righteousness and kindness. This was a type of human body Gu refinent thod, or rather, a human path Gu refinent thod.

From this aspect, one could see that Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable had shocking refinent path attainnt.

Fang Yuan currently lacked this essence of refinent path, it was a huge inspiration to him.

"I am only a quasi-supre in refinent path, mainly consisting of the hairy man Gu refinent thod. To beco a genuine supre grandmaster, I lack these things! But how many of these things are in existence? Where are they left at? This human path refinent thod of accumulate virtue Gu seems to have so similarity with Qing Chou's hatred Gu refinent."

Fang Yuan thought about it for a while, he was secretly happy internally.

He next moved his attention to the third portion of Paradise Earth's true inheritance.

This was regarding the dream path.

The core killer move was: three lifeti dreams reform a chosen one.

This killer move used fetus earth maze as the foundation to create a dream realm. It allowed the people who entered the dream to live in the sa dream together for three lifetis, one could experience the mortal lives fully and comprehend life and death, understanding the vicissitudes of human ways and forgetting the evil in their heart, turning over a new leaf.

Fang Yuan had already been hit by this move before, Lu Wei Yin was the user.

The reason why Lu Wei Yin understood Fang Yuan's nature and goal so well was also because of this move.

Thus, Fang Yuan obtained two rank seven dream path Immortal Gu from him.

The first was dreaming Immortal Gu, it was the core Immortal Gu of three lifeti dreams reform a chosen one, it was not a surprise.

The other Immortal Gu made Fang Yuan very happy.

"Even though this Immortal Gu is only rank seven, it carries a huge significance in my case, its importance surpasses rank eight Immortal Gu, and even rank nine!"

-x-X-x-

The dream path Immortal Gu held in Fang Yuan's hands now was a round ruby-like jewel that was cut in half.

This semi-circular ball-shaped Gu worm looked very cute, its red color was also very attractive.

Its head was only ten percent of its body, its back was round and smooth, there were black markings all over, resembling a tortoise shell.

This was rank seven dream path Immortal Gu — Dream Armor.

It was a defensive dream path Immortal Gu!

Fang Yuan had many Immortal Gu currently, but he only had one dream path Immortal Gu, it was rank eight Dream Token, the core Immortal Gu of Dragon Palace.

Dream Token was shaped like a dragonfly, it had a round head and long body, with a pair of pink ruby eyes and four pairs of transparent wings. Looking closely at its thin wings, one would also see a faint layer of rainbow halo.

Looking at the two, Fang Yuan found that dream path Immortal Gu seed to all look very pretty.

"I wonder what Dream Travel and Dream Wings look like?" Fang Yuan could not help but think.

He had five hundred years of mories, he knew that dream wings Immortal Gu was in the hands of Feng Jin Huang, while dream travel Immortal Gu was in Lady Poison Scorpion's hands.

it was not that Fang Yuan had no intentions of targeting them.

All along, he could not effectively deal with Feng Jin Huang, while he had little confidence in regards to Lady Poison Scorpion.

In his previous life, Dream Travel, Carefree Travel, Fixed Immortal Travel, and Liquor God Travel were the publicly recognized four great movent Immortal Gu. Even though Fang Yuan was strong, Lady Poison Scorpion could travel through dreams and instantly enter any single dream realm.

"Currently, dream path is still not developed enough, dream realms have not manifested everywhere in the outside world. Dream path immortal materials are still rare, while dream path Immortal Gu are even rarer, and yet I already own three of them." Fang Yuan was quite happy with this result.

In the previous life, the manifested dream realms were even larger than Spectral Soul's dream realm, they were everywhere in the five regions.

Thus, everyone could enter dream realms for exploration, it was unlike now where dream realms were occupied by the experts.

A vast amount of dream realms ant countless opportunities for Gu cultivators to excavate dream path Gu materials. With these materials, dream path started to develop rapidly as a path.

Thus, at this current ti, dream path had only started to grow in its initial state. Thieving Heaven's dream realm, Paradise Earth's dream realm, and Spectral Soul's dream realm were just small flas that could not boil this entire pot of water.

To boil the pot of water that was dream path, Spectral Soul's dream realm was just too small, the entire world's strength was needed.

In Fang Yuan's case, the Immortal Gu Dreaming and Dream Token were even less important than Dream Armor.

Because Dream Armor was a defensive Immortal Gu.

With this Immortal Gu, he would have the capability of resisting dream path tribulations, the Pure Dream Reality Seeker clone would be able to undergo immortal ascension!

Fang Yuan recalled his luck inspection results earlier.

The pure dream clone's luck was like a pink sandbox, it was very small but yellow sand entered it continuously, turning into pink sand that strengthened the sandbox.

The sandbox luck predicted that the pure dream clone would receive the help of Paradise Earth, now it seed like that was truly the case.

Fang Yuan activated Cooking Luck Pot again to inspect his luck.

His silver luck pillar did not change much, the pillar of light only beca slightly larger while most of the yellow sand below it had vanished.

The pure dream clone's luck was still like a pink sandbox but no more yellow sand fell into it. The sand pile in the box was very tall, there was a feeling of collapse or breakthrough at the next mont."

"I gained Southern Border's Paradise Earth true inheritance, with his help, the pure dream clone has the opportunity to breakthrough. But even so, the risks are still huge, I need to make even more preparation."

Fang Yuan quickly understood.

After Cooking Luck Pot reached rank eight, Fang Yuan obtained even more benefits from luck path.

He was increasingly feeling the advantage of luck path, it was no wonder that Giant Sun Immortal Venerable managed to rise to the top back then!

Crazed Demon Cave was definitely a place to visit, but Fang Yuan could not go now.

Currently, his strength was growing explosively, Fang Yuan intended to raise his battle strength to the limit before heading to Crazed Demon Cave.

Even though Lu Wei Yin claid that the situation was extrely urgent, Fang Yuan had Luck Inspection, he knew that he still had so precious ti left.

"More preparation leads to better future results, let first research on dream path thods before I help the pure dream clone to ascend!"

Fang Yuan looked at himself, his dream path knowledge was undoubtedly the number one in the current world.

The knowledge of dream realm exploration that he brought along with rebirth was still the top tier research result of the current world, but his advantage was quickly shrinking.

However, after Fang Yuan was reborn, he still made incredible progress in dream path.

The killer move unravel dream ca from his mories, from Shadow Sect, he obtained lead soul into dream, switch soul in dream, and pure dream reality seeker transformation. From Dragon Palace, he obtained dreamy light smoke, dream within dream, and dream revelation. And now from Southern Border's Paradise Earth true inheritance, he obtained three lifeti dreams reform a chosen one.

Fang Yuan had more dream path killer moves than dream path Immortal Gu.

Many of the dream path killer moves had core Immortal Gu of other paths, there was no helping it, he used a vast number of dream path mortal Gu in place of a dream path Immortal Gu. For example, killer moves like lead soul into dream and switch soul in dream.

"What I need now is a dream path defensive killer move that uses dream armor Immortal Gu as the core. After that, I need a dream path movent thod so that I can escape danger and gain so ti to recuperate. After that is healing and finally offense."

Even though Fang Yuan's dream path attainnt level was ordinary, he was confident in creating new dream path killer moves.

The reason was that he had unrestrained heavenly mark, he could create a large number of compound killer moves!

Longevity Heaven and Heavenly Court were definitely plotting to contest in Crazed Demon Cave, they would not send troops to attack Fang Yuan's variant human alliance.

Not to ntion approaching Fang Yuan.

As for the Southern Alliance led by Wu Yong, they would be glad if Fang Yuan did not find them for trouble. Why would they co to him and court death?

The external environnt was unprecedentedly safe, Fang Yuan started to enter closed cultivation, he created dream path killer moves, he made good progress every day.

More than ten days later, Fang Yuan suddenly stopped, entering a daze.

He advanced to dream path master!

This was the explosive growth of his accumulation, it was extrely smooth after long periods of foundation building. When creating his killer moves, he had unknowingly succeeded and stepped into the next realm.

Ever since rebirth, Fang Yuan had been pressured by external forces, he had never invested any ti or energy into dream path.

Until now, he started to truly cultivate dream path, he put effort into it.

Because his foundation was deep, he was able to progress rapidly from the start, raising his dream path attainnt level.

Master attainnt level — the Gu cultivator's use of Gu worms had already reached an artistic level, they were no longer amateurs.

The most evident trait was the ergence of instinct. Their understanding of Gu worms and the conceptualization of immortal killer moves for that path had also turned into the cultivator's innate ability. It was like a natural skill that ca with them from birth, smooth and easy to use.

For example, Fang Yuan had a very vague idea of dream path Gu worm compatibility for killer moves, he had to try to find out if they would succeed or fail. But now, before trying, his instincts would tell him if so ideas were more feasible or if they were ant to fail even without trying, whether he would only waste his ti, energy, and resource if he went ahead.

"Good! Having dream path master attainnt level is truly icing on the cake! My dream path achievent is definitely at the top of the current world. But... this might change after so ti."

In the mories of Fang Yuan's previous life, there were many dream path geniuses. Among them were shocking talents like Feng Jin Huang and Lady Poison Scorpion, raising dream path attainnt level was much easier for them compared to others.

So people were born with compatibility with certain paths, talent was sothing that could not be explained. Especially for Great Dream Immortal Venerable seeds like Feng Jin Huang and Lady Poison Scorpion!

Fang Yuan had self awareness, he knew that others would surpass him soon in the aspect of dream path attainnt level.

But Fang Yuan would not give up on developing dream path, he would not commit the sa mistake as in his previous life.

Dream path was the great trend ahead, the revolution of the future, there was a huge advantage in a new path.

"But now is not the ti to truly cultivate dream path!" Fang Yuan understood his circumstances clearly.

He had to beco a venerable first to resist the external threats, only then would he have ti and opportunities to develop his dream path slowly.

After hearing of the four venerable ascension conditions from Lu Wei Yin, after careful consideration, Fang Yuan guessed that refinent path would be the most likely path that he would beco venerable in.

First becoming a venerable in refinent path, then going onto becoming venerable in other paths.

This was the advantage of the sovereign immortal body!

The other venerables would only be able to stare at his growth.

Even though Spectral Soul knew how to refine sovereign immortal fetus Gu, after failing in his pursuit of Fang Yuan, he had already fallen behind in terms of progress.

Fang Yuan had far greater potential for developnt than the current venerables.

At the sa ti, Central Continent, Spirit Affinity House.

In a certain Gu refinent secret room within Spirit Affinity House, Feng Jin Huang's Gu refinent was reaching its crucial stage.

"I am about to succeed." Feng Jin Huang's eyes shined: "As long as I refine this dream path mortal Gu, I will have defensive abilities in dream realms. This is definitely a huge breakthrough... urgh!"

Suddenly, the light in front of Feng Jin Huang exploded, the Gu refinent failed as she coughed out a mouthful of blood, falling down.

"How did this happen?!" Feng Jin Huang was extrely shocked, this was not supposed to happen, the dream path mortal Gu recipe had been checked more than ten tis, how could there be a mistake?

Even if any mistake was present, it should not have triggered at this crucial point.

"This is not a problem with my Gu recipe, the problem is the Gu material!" Feng Jin Huang's head was hurting greatly, but she still understood what had happened.

"When refining the Gu, I did my inspection. The Gu materials must have been tampered with, and it must be the work of an immortal, that is why I could not notice it."

"I was plotted against."

"Soone wants dead!"

Thinking of this, a deep chill erged from the depths of Feng Jin Huang's heart.

She struggled to get up but halfway, she fell over.

Her face was pale as her aura weakened, the strength in her body dissipated as well.

"I am going to die here." Feng Jin Huang gritted her teeth as tears appeared in her eyes. her beautiful and elegant face was plastered on the cold ground, she had no strength to raise it herself.

"Master..." Before dying, Feng Jin Huang thought of Duke Long, her mother, and her father.

"I am not willing to die here!" Feng Jin Huang shouted in her heart.

Suddenly, she heard so quarreling outside.

"Fairy, fairy, you cannot go in!"

"I, Zhao Lian Yun, am the current generation fairy of Spirit Affinity House, I can use any Gu refinent room I want, why can't I choose this best room?"

"Fairy, this room has been taken already, you barged in like this, what if an accident occurs when the person inside is refining Gu..."

"Accident? Hmph! How can there be any accident?" The mont she said that, there was a loud sound, the third door of the secret room was forcefully opened.

"Ah, what is going on?" The Gu Master in charge of the Gu refinent secret room beca pale with shock.

"Her Gu refinent failed, she suffered a backlash. Quickly give way, how can a Gu Master like you save her from these injuries?" Zhao Lian Yun pushed the Gu Master aside, a dark light flickering in her eyes.

The Gu Master was covered in sweat, thinking about the history between Feng Jin Huang and Zhao Lian Yun, she was flustered and did not know what to do.

"Aren't you scramming? If you interrupt my healing, can you bear the consequences?" Zhao Lian Yun called out again.

The Gu Master gritted her teeth: "Fairy... ah!"

Zhao Lian Yun waved her hand, a lump of profound light sent the Gu Master flying far away.

Zhao Lian Yun approached Feng Jin Huang as she squatted down.

The two peerless beauties looked at each other.

The Gu refinent secret room fell into dead silence.

This was truly a twist of fate, the two of them had reversed statuses at the mont.

Feng Jin Huang was not flustered in the face of death, she said calmly: "So you are the ones who want dead."

She was intelligent, after seeing Zhao Lian Yun, she thought of Li Jun Ying and Xu Hao. The latter two had deep grudges with Feng Jiu Ge.

Zhao Lian Yun sighed as she extended her hand towards Feng Jin Huang.

Feng Jin Huang had no strength to resist, her vision fell into darkness.

-x-X-x-

Water vapor surged, three Gu Immortals flew rapidly among the clouds.

"Faster, faster!" The Gu Immortal in front was the current first supre elder of Spirit Affinity House.

The three Spirit Affinity House immortals that were moving showed unease and anxiety on their faces.

It turned out that after Zhao Lian Yun forcefully sent the rank five Gu Master guarding the Gu refinent room away, this Gu Master felt very worried and went to inform the higher-ups of Spirit Affinity House.

After receiving the news, first supre elder and the rest could not wait any more, they quickly rushed towards the place!

Nothing had to happen to Feng Jin Huang!

Earlier, even though Feng Jiu Ge betrayed them in the fate war and caused Fairy Bai Qing and Feng Jin Huang to fall from grace, Heavenly Court dealt with the issue calmly, they did not punish the two of them.

According to the rules of the righteous path, they could not punish them. This was because Feng Jin Huang and Fairy Bai Qing did not betray their sect, Feng Jin Huang was even the disciple of Duke Long.

During the pursuit of Fang Yuan, Qin Ding Ling handed out ergency orders. Spirit Affinity House's first supre elder personally controlled the Immortal Gu House and brought Feng Jin Huang to the battlefield, where she collected all of the dream realms that Fang Yuan left behind.

Feng Jin Huang made a huge contribution in this battle!

Before the first supre elder left, Qin Ding Ling secretly transmitted to her and said: "Take good care of Feng Jin Huang. Even with the destruction of fate Gu, dream path is still the future trend of the world."

Spirit Affinity House instantly understood the intention of Heavenly Court — they still thought highly of Feng Jin Huang and wanted to nurture her. All of the dream realms that Feng Jin Huang collected were kept with her, Heavenly Court did not take a single one away!

The three immortals flew into the Gu refinent secret room directly.

"Fairy Lian Yun, you need to calm down... hmm?" The three immortals were surprised.

They did not see Feng Jin Huang's corpse, instead, they saw that Feng Jin Huang and Zhao Lian Yun were facing each other.

Traces of blood was still seen on Feng Jin Huang's lips but using their investigative thods, the three immortals found that she was very healthy, completely uninjured.

"What is going on?"

"Did Zhao Lian Yun really save Feng Jin Huang?"

"This is too strange. Zhao Lian Yun has always been part of the anti-Feng faction, Feng Jin Huang failed her Gu refinent this ti, she ca at a peculiar timing, she evidently wanted to deal a fatal blow. Why did this happen?"

The three immortals were unable to understand.

Looking at the situation, Feng Jin Huang had the upper hand, while Zhao Lian Yun's expression was quite ugly.

"Feng Jin Huang, very well done!" Zhao Lian Yun looked at Feng Jin Huang deeply in the eyes, she spoke with deep aning before leaving.

She walked past the three immortals without even greeting them, this went against her usual deanor, it showed how terrible her mood was.

Feng Jin Huang wiped the blood traces off her lips as she smiled and greeted the three supre elders.

The three immortals quickly understood the reason, they sighed in their hearts.

"This must be due to Feng Jin Huang's plan, she must have sensed sothing and went along with the sche to lure out the enemies, causing Zhao Lian Yun to expose herself."

"Ever since the fate war, Feng Jin Huang's improvent has been very evident. Predicants truly help to train people."

"But what should we do about their conflict?"

The three immortals were secretly troubled.

On one hand, there was the anti-Feng faction, Li Jun Ying and Xu Hao were the pillars holding this faction up, they helped Zhao Lian Yun beco the current generation fairy of Spirit Affinity House. With her addition, the faction was already the number one force within Spirit Affinity House.

On the other hand, there were Fairy Bai Qing and Feng Jin Huang. This mother and daughter pair was not easy to deal with, they had deep foundations. Even though Feng Jin Huang seed to have lost her grace, she was still very important to Heavenly Court. After all, her father was Feng Jiu Ge, even though he betrayed the righteous path, as long as he was not dead, Spirit Affinity House could not ignore his existence!

The conflict between the two factions beca the greatest internal threat of Spirit Affinity House, but the first supre elder was unable to do anything.

"Feng Jin Huang, if you want to refine Gu in the future, you can co to my mountain peak." The first supre elder looked at Feng Jin Huang for a while before speaking amicably.

She pretended not to know about the fact that Zhao Lian Yun ca to find trouble earlier.

There was no direct evidence.

The only evidence was the Gu refinent materials, but they were destroyed already.

Even if there was evidence, the first supre elder would likely not want to deal with it. Having it manifest now would just trigger the internal threat, causing the decline of the sect.

The first supre elder was very mature. She knew that Spirit Affinity House had fallen into so internal strife now, it was like a volcano bound to erupt soon. She needed to use a pot lid and cover the top, stalling for as much ti as she could. During this period, she had to dig so routes to redirect the lava away and release the inner pressure to stabilize the situation.

Zhao Lian Yun returned to her mountain with a livid expression.

She did not enter the hall, she stood on the mountain peak, looking at the dark weather.

She knew that soone would co.

As expected, a while later, Xu Hao and Li Jun Ying flew over together.

This couple's expressions were not good, along the way, they already knew that the plan had failed. But they still needed to find out the details from Zhao Lian Yun herself.

Before Xu Hao or Li Jun Ying spoke, Zhao Lian Yun already asked them: "How did Feng Jin Huang find out the flaw in the Gu materials? Do you have anything to say about this failure?"

Xu Hao was silent.

Li Jun Ying said grimly: "I underestimated Feng Jin Huang. Lian Yun, you know about my title as Illusory Fairy, I am skilled at such things. Especially when I beca a shadow path great grandmaster recently, even if the Gu material were to be placed in front of first supre elder, she might not have found out."

Zhao Lian Yun's expression was cold as she waved her sleeves in anger: "But it happened anyway, what explanation do you have?"

Xu Hao spoke: "Maybe Duke Long left Feng Jin Huang so defensive thods. Or maybe this is the power of dream path. After all, we are not familiar with dream path, that demon Fang Yuan has also relied on dream path to fight strong enemies while he was weak."

Xu Hao continued: "Alright, this was our mistake. Fairy Lian Yun, according to our agreent, after helping us with this matter, we no longer owe each other anything. Since this plan failed, let it be, it was our fault after all, we will treat it as a completed task. From today onwards, we do not owe each other anything!"

Hearing his words, Li Jun Ying showed anxiety on her face, she wanted to speak, but Xu Hao stopped her with his hand.

Zhao Lian Yun's expression eased at this mont, she nodded at the two immortals before turning around and leaving without speaking.

The two immortals saw that Zhao Lian Yun went into her palace, they had to return.

Along the way, Li Jun Ying said angrily: "If not for our help, how could this Zhao Lian Yun have gotten the divine concealnt of Thieving Heaven's true inheritance? If not for our help, how could she have beco the current generation fairy? She actually wants to keep a clear distance from us now, she is truly an ingrate. And husband, you actually let her off so easily, do you know that she is the best weapon for us to deal with Feng Jiu Ge! To think that you are a wisdom path cultivator, sigh."

Xu Hao smiled: "My dear wife, don't worry. Even though we failed, there were gains too. Firstly, we learned about Heavenly Court's intentions through the first supre elder's actions. Secondly, we now have Zhao Lian Yun on our side for good. Thirdly, we also found out so of Feng Jin Huang's abilities."

Li Jun Ying was slightly dazed before she realized: "That's right, even though we failed, Zhao Lian Yun also beca enemies with Feng Jin Huang. Even if we do not look for Zhao Lian Yun, Feng Jin Huang will eventually 'repay' her for this, the enemy of an enemy is a friend, so she is still on our side."

"Precisely." Xu Hao nodded.

Li Jun Ying smiled: "Husband, you are really a wisdom path cultivator, I was wrong earlier."

Xu Hao smiled, showing a gaze full of bitterness: "Feng Jin Huang is truly the daughter of Feng Jiu Ge, her attitude, talent, and dream path thods surpass my expectations. Our original plan was to use Feng Jin Huang as the bait to lure Feng Jiu Ge into attacking Spirit Affinity House angrily, to make him conflict with Heavenly Court."

Xu Hao and Li Jun Ying's target was still Feng Jiu Ge after all.

Even though Feng Jiu Ge was strong and even ten of Li Jun Ying and Xu Hao together could not fight him, was there really a need to face him in combat?

Humans were the spirit of living beings, there were many ways to kill an enemy stronger than yourself.

Xu Hao, who cultivated wisdom path, thought of a plan to use Heavenly Court as the blade to exterminate Feng Jiu Ge.

This was the flair of a wisdom path Gu Immortal, he was skilled at using other people or situations to achieve his goal!

"This plan failed, I truly underestimated Feng Jin Huang. After this, she will definitely stay by her mother's side, we will not have many opportunities to strike again in the future." Xu Hao was very worried.

Feng Jiu Ge had once suppressed Xu Hao, causing him to live a life shrouded by darkness. This was their grudge.

When Feng Jiu Ge was in Spirit Affinity House, his family occupied all of the resources, causing Li Jun Ying and Xu Hao to progress slowly in cultivation. This involved their benefits.

Feng Jin Huang cultivated dream path and was highly regarded by Heavenly Court, she was the forerunner of the new era. This was a future threat.

Spirit Affinity House and Heavenly Court could not be depended on, the only one who could defend Xu Hao's benefits was Xu Hao himself.

If he did not do his best, who would help him?

"The journey of cultivation involves competition and conflict, we can only win if we stake our lives on important gambles." Xu Hao muttered, determination flashing in his eyes again.

So days later.

Eastern Sea.

On a naless island in a naless sea area, Fang Yuan let out his dream path clone.

"Start." Fang Yuan said plainly.

The dream path clone nodded as he took a deep breath, shattering his aperture at the next mont.

The complete Pure Dream Reality Seeker Physique's aperture was different from an ordinary rank five aperture, it was constantly alternating between shattering and forming at all tis, yet its aperture wall had a thin layer that was able to fix this dream path aperture in place.

At this ti, Fang Yuan's dream path clone only used prival essence to assault the wall before it shattered.

At the next mont, formless heavenly power surged towards him from all over the place as the pure dream clone's body started to rise into the air.

Rumble!

Clouds gathered in the sky as thunder rumbled.

The waves around the island beca more intense, soon turning into huge tides!

The environnt beca quite hostile, using Gu worms in this area, be they immortal or mortal, would result in backlash.

If the backlash was severe, even Immortal Gu would be destroyed!

Heaven's will was seemingly enraged!

Fang Yuan was a hated scoundrel, he actually wanted to beco a dream path Gu Immortal in advance.

This was not part of the plan of heaven's will.

This went against the arrangent of fate.

It could not be spared!

It could not be forgiven!

Fang Yuan looked up at the sky, his gaze was peaceful yet determined.

So what if the Heavenly Dao did not allow it?

Then contest!

Then fight!

In this world, the most reliable thing was neither your clan or sect, nor your family or lover, it was yourself.
